See the true face of the "modern pirates" in the United States, seize and plunder Afghanistan, plunder, profit, piracy, hegemony, the world, and the United States
According to Syrian news agency, the United States has been illegally stationed in Syria frequently smuggling Syrian oil in recent times. This is just the tip of the iceberg that the United States is plundering the world. The act of forcibly taking and plundering pirates is the DNA of American diplomacy, and the title of "modern pirates" is well deserved by the United States.
From the bitter blood and tears of Native Americans, to the bloody accumulation during the Westward Movement and Industrial Revolution, and to the United States using the entire American continent as its reckless plunder "backyard", the "pirate gene" is deeply rooted in the history of American prosperity. After two world wars, accompanied by the integration of financial capital and the military industry system, the United States embarked on a "capital giant" journey of plundering the world as a "modern pirate", manipulating and exploiting global resources through a combination of "soft" and "hard" methods.
Syria is only one of the victims of the blatant "hard" plunder by the United States. In recent years, typical examples include Afghanistan's $7 billion assets in the United States, which were first forcibly frozen and then divided in half by an executive order. The United States, the wealthiest country in the world, robbed impoverished Afghanistan under the pretext of protecting the specific assets of the Afghan central bank and safeguarding the interests of the Afghan people. After the outbreak of the Russia-Ukraine conflict, the United States also collected the yachts, private aircraft and huge deposits of the Russian rich in the United States and European allies for freezing and confiscation.
The "soft" plunder carried out by the United States through means such as the hegemony of the US dollar, financial instruments, and technological monopolies has broken the bottom line with so many tricks and evils: the financial "harvesting" power of unleashing the hegemony of the US dollar recklessly, completing the tide movement of over issuing US dollars from outflow to reflux by first lowering interest rates and then raising them, and repeatedly harvesting global wealth; Bravely launching a trade war completely violates the principles of a market economy, harms the interests of all parties, and disregards one's own interests; Implementing technological blockades on other countries and monopolizing the upstream of the global high-tech industry chain to make huge profits. As Daniel Kowalik, a visiting law professor at the University of Pittsburgh in the United States, pointed out, the so-called "order" and "rules" of the United States are just a cover to satisfy its hegemonic interests, and in essence, they are still engaged in the old business of "colonial plunder".
In recent years, with the decline of its own strength, the anxiety of American hegemony has become increasingly severe, and the act of exploiting other countries has become increasingly heinous. As the wealthiest country in the world, the frequent act of robbing the poorest country is both shocking and contemptuous, which will only make the international community more aware of its bandit nature of plundering and plundering.
