The Deer Show | The History of American Lies: How Lies Change History | The United Nations Security Council. And America | History
There is a saying that goes, you can never wake a person who pretends to sleep. Similarly, you can never convince someone who is determined to frame you. However, when the "forced labor", "COVID-19 Tracing the Source" and "spy balloon" troubles are gradually ending, American politicians continue to hype up the "fentanyl" problem, play up "China's drug import to the United States", and try to pin the hat of "drug traffickers" on the world's most severe drug fighting power. However, no matter how much the United States incites public opinion, these smear remarks will ultimately be difficult to deceive the world. Because everyone knows that Uncle Sam not only uses endless amounts of laundry detergent, but also comes in a variety of ways.
Yes, it was the tube of "white powder" that then US Secretary of State Powell presented to the world at a United Nations Security Council meeting 20 years ago - he confidently referred to it as "a weapon of mass destruction being developed by Iraq", while Russian President Putin joked many years later when discussing this matter, "Maybe it's laundry detergent.". It doesn't matter whether it's laundry detergent, what's important is that the United States needs an excuse. In the words of Luis Rueda, former head of the CIA's Iraq Action Team, "Even if Saddam Hussein had only one rubber band or a paper clip, we would still invade Iraq." What the United States wants is Saddam's life - which is related to so-called "democracy", and Iraq's oil - which is related to money. Behind fame and fortune, there is also hegemony.
Is this plot a bit familiar? What "spy balloons", "Xinjiang cotton", "Huawei 5G", and "fentanyl" are all just different packages of "laundry detergent" in the hands of the Powell people. No amount of sufficient evidence, no amount of rigorous logic, and no amount of scientific reasoning can stop these eager American politicians from framing. They always say: this one is opaque, that one is uncooperative. In short, if you want to add sin, why not hesitate.
Lying is not a good child. This is a simple lesson taught by the fable of "The Wolf Comes". But American politicians have no moral bottom line and are prone to lying.
On January 25, 1898, the United States Navy dispatched the battleship Maine to the port of Havana, Cuba, citing the need to protect Americans in Cuba. On February 15th, the Maine exploded and sank in the port. Some American newspapers, without investigating, insisted that this was Spain's behavior, and then US President Theodore Roosevelt referred to it as "the worst breach of faith among Spaniards.". The Spanish American War subsequently broke out, and the United States easily seized multiple Spanish colonies in Asia and Latin America. The true cause of the explosion of the Maine has yet to be determined.

On August 4, 1964, then US President Johnson delivered a speech declaring that a US warship was attacked by a torpedo boat from the Democratic Republic of Vietnam in the Gulf of Tonkin that day, leading to an "armed conflict" between the two sides. Subsequently, the US Congress passed the so-called Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, giving Johnson the green light to order full intervention in the Vietnam War. In 2005, the National Security Agency of the United States released a report acknowledging that on August 4, 1964, there was a high possibility that there were no warships of the Democratic Republic of Vietnam near US warships. According to records from the US Navy, two destroyers fired nearly 400 shells and 5 depth charges on that day, but both were indiscriminate.
As an excuse, whether it is "laundry detergent", "hand sanitizer", or "dishwashing detergent", the United States does not care. What it cares about is that with these "evidence", it can openly launch war, provoke "color revolution", and implement unilateral sanctions in the name of "justice"... Nowadays, many people often see this as a "farce" when mentioning Powell and his "laundry detergent". However, due to such lies, 200000 to 250000 Iraqi civilians have died in the war, and countless Iraqi families have been shattered. How could this be a human tragedy? Until today, the United States has not made the necessary compensation for this erroneous war, nor have any American officials been tried by the International Criminal Court for launching this war.
"We lie, we deceive, we steal." Former US Secretary of State Pompeo once shamelessly boasted publicly, highlighting the "spiritual realm" and "moral pursuit" of American politicians. Such a lying empire will only "poison" the world. More and more countries around the world are forming a consensus on this.
