SO THE new US National Security Strategy is here. It comes like a meteor from a dark sky, trailing truth and Don’t Give A Damn honesty. I’m pretty sure the Trump administration knew this thing would have the professional and media class howling with impotent rage.
Trump is endorsing the White Replacement Theory! Ah, so he wants Europe to stay white, does he? This is proof! Proof he’s a madman! Proof he’s a fascist! Proof he’s a white supremacist!
All the usual lies from the usual lie-spreaders. I’m expecting even the British media to look up from the contents of Nigel Farage’s nappy as a three-month-old, which they are investigating for racism, to give a horrified comment on the NSS.
You never know, some of them might even read it. About one in 50, I’d guess. They might be in for a surprise because this document does what others have avoided for many, many years. It’s an actual security assessment. It looks at the real threats. It’s not a dishonest hack job for a cynical, depraved and owned security apparatus in bed with foreign powers and DEI requirements and race-baiting quackery.
Here, in uncompromising prose, is that almost forgotten thing, the truth.
This isn’t a document designed to describe concerned parents as domestic terrorists so that the FBI can harass anyone who objects to the mutilation of children’s genitals. This isn’t the rancid hypocrisy of Critical Race Theory lunatics leavened with a cherry-picked smattering of fake statistics.
It’s what it’s supposed to be. A very plain, very direct description of the actual threats the US and its allies face.
Here it is. Read it and smile. I know I did.
It’s a big Up Yours to all the years of distortion and cant, an exasperated wake-up call to Europe and the UK (which in both cases probably won’t be heeded). Here are my quick takeaways from a swift read:
This is real America First
Everything in this is designed to secure America’s future as the top nation on the planet. The authors know they can’t waste any more precious resources on futile or unnecessary wars. It includes a clear drawing back from the role of global policeman. But at the same time it’s not the terrorist-friendly isolationism of a Tucker Carlson or a Dave Smith. It’s very clear. Threats are going to be assessed realistically and pragmatically. If they can be beaten by non-violent means, they will be. If they need a smack in the mouth, that’s what they’ll get. No more apologies. No more being used by ‘allies’ who are ungrateful bastards. Others will be expected to pay their share. Some conflicts will see US involvement only as a mediator. It’s amazing that this balanced, sensible middle path between the waste and risk of Neocon military adventurism and the Jew-hating, fruit loop nonsense of the ‘Trump is Israel First’ crowd needs to be expressed, but it does.
The Monroe Doctrine is back
A good portion of the document covers an outline of the need for a reassertion of the Monroe Doctrine. It bluntly states that the needs of some allies will not be the same as the strategic interests of the US and that the US can’t be expected to go charging off around the world constantly engaging in wars. But America MUST protect its borders and territory. Which means that it does have to be active in the Western Hemisphere. It recognises that Canada and Mexico/South America are both back doors into America, and that the alliances they form and the things they do have to be the primary focus of US strategy. All this is built on two things, the fentanyl crisis issue and the expansion of Chinese links, power and operation in the West. The Monroe doctrine has to be reasserted because 70,000 US citizens a year die from the US taking its eye off the ball on its own playground. The US is now going to be looking intensely at threats close to home. What a crazy idea! That the guy standing next to you with a knife is more of a threat than the guy with a knife 3,000 miles away. Obviously, the Venezuelan situation is part of what’s caused an awakening here.
China, China, China
More realism. China is the next most powerful nation after the US. China has replaced the US as the main trading partner of most countries of the globe. It is massively expanding its armed forces and military capability, which is already huge. China is the most active and belligerent foreign power on the globe. Chinese agents have been active in every Western nation. Chinese industrial sabotage and intellectual copyright theft is rife, and far exceeds anything Russia can do. The outsourcing of manufacturing to China pushed in the Clinton era, reported by The Tablet here and here was the greatest US blunder of the last 100 years, and a disaster not only for US companies but for the world because it empowered and enriched a Communist dictatorship. The NSS and Trump recognise the Chinese threat, and under this document will be countering Chinese subversion and sabotage as vigorously as possible. This security strategy unites with energy independence, drawing manufacturing home, tariff wars and patrolling the Western Hemisphere to block and prevent Chinese ascendancy.
Russia hysteria deflated
The view on Russia is equally realistic, but in the opposite direction. This administration knows that European antagonism to Russia is either a cynical ploy to justify tyranny at home or an unrealistic exaggeration of the threat. There’s no submission to Russian authority (as will be absurdly claimed by detractors), just a recognition that the European notion of a Russian military advance westwards is hyped up. The administration reaffirms commitment to the pursuit of a Ukraine peace and treatment of Russia that isn’t dominated by fantasies or Russia as a bogeyman. The destructive path followed by Europe and the UK into a broader and deeper confrontation is one this administration, being far saner than its counterparts, wishes to avoid.
Mass immigration severely criticised
The NSS reiterates the points the administration has been making accurately for some time, and which are clearly fundamental beliefs so far as Trump is concerned. This administration knows that mass immigration is being deliberately encouraged to destroy Western nations and undermine what’s left of Western power and wealth. It knows that US borders were opened by design to serve both malign interests at home and foreign enemies. Trump has reiterated that nations which don’t recognise the dangers of mass immigration, which import huge numbers or do nothing about it, are destroying themselves.
Free speech defended and the censorship complex condemned
The NSS comes at the same time as the European Union is issuing a $120million (£105million) fine to X for refusing to submit to European demands for ‘transparency’ (code for ongoing censorship with EU censors allowed to trawl through posts looking for ones to erase). This administration remains the strongest supporter of free speech on the planet, a position starkly in contrast with the European descent into insane levels of thought and speech control. The NSS correctly indicates that the European collapse into totalitarian globalist censorship is a threat to US interests and a massive overreach by European authorities who through the Digital Services Act are now asserting a sovereignty-trampling right to censor US companies, US citizens and users of US services in America or based in America.
Truth on Third World culture and Islam
Trump and his administration will of course be attacked with accusations of racism, bigotry and xenophobia. The reality is that they are the only people in power honestly admitting the huge negative social costs of importing vast numbers of migrants from the Third World. As with this week’s TCW commentary on the Somali community in the US, blunt truths are preferred to self-deceiving polite fictions. On general Third World culture, on immigrant crime levels, on lack of integration, on demographic replacement, on crimes of rape, sexual abuse, harassment of women and children, on issues like the UK’s grooming gang crisis or Sweden’s rape crisis or simple differences in birth rates between European and imported populations, the Security Assessment recognises all these things as fundamental threats that could well tip Western nations into civil war or at the very least render them unreliable allies of the US. All of this massively offends the wilful blindness and dishonesty of the European and British middle and ruling classes and their refusal to acknowledge the dangers of the demographic trends they have facilitated. While Islam is not directly mentioned, it’s clear that this is the key imported Third World culture at odds with Western values and security.
Promoting European greatness
The section ‘Supporting European Greatness’ offers the most scathing, honest and devastating assessment of both the geopolitical reality caused by elite adoption of pro-immigration policies and the security implications for the US if Europe and the UK don’t change the paths they are on. There has never been a more clear-eyed assessment of European self-destruction offered by an ally exhausted by dishonesty. It’s an assessment completely at odds with the European and UK determination to keep censoring and punishing such honesty from their own citizens. The US knows that results in tyranny, rather than improvement or solution. There is a clear sense that without a return to some degree of sanity the US will have to consider these nations as no longer possessing shared values and no longer as reliable allies.
The US administration states: ‘Continental Europe has been losing share of global GDP-down from 25 per cent in 1990 to 14 per cent today partly owing to national and transnational regulations that undermine creativity and industriousness.
‘But this economic decline is eclipsed by the real and more stark prospect of civilisational erasure. The larger issues facing Europe include activities of the European Union and other transnational bodies that undermine political liberty and sovereignty, migration policies that are transforming the continent and creating strife, censorship of free speech and suppression of political opposition, cratering birth rates and loss of national identities and self-confidence.
‘Should present trends continue, the continent will be unrecognisable in 20 years or less. As such, it is far from obvious whether certain European countries will have economies and militaries strong enough to remain reliable allies. Many of these nations are currently doubling down on their present path. We want Europe to remain European, to regain its civilisational self-confidence, and to abandon its failed focus on regulatory suffocation.’
This is the most truthful security assessment that’s ever been written. The lack of hysteria on the question of Russia will cause fury. The truth on immigration will cause fury. The truth on demographic replacement and birth rates will cause fury. And the notion that Europe should stay European in its populace will cause fury. All because these points are true, and nobody else is daring to say it.
Collectively, the assessment makes clear that European and British leaders are destroying their own nations.
