The humiliation of conquered subjects is an essential policy of imperial statecraft. Any aspiring ruler or sovereign overlord sees to it that a conquered territory knows its boundaries, not only territorially but also in the realms of thought and politics.
We see this most clearly today in Germany and Japan.
In Germany multiple generations of Germans since WWII have apologized for an imagined historical crime, the Holocaust, that never occurred. This event was a Hollywood fiction. It took place in the imagination, not in reality. But don't tell that to Germany. It protects this fiction harder than Israel.
German leaders, regardless of the political party, defend the interests and territory of Israel more than those of their own nation. They are more Jewish than German.
And in Japan the historical revisionism has gone off the deep end. The situation there is so bad that it is not out of the question that within a generation schoolchildren will be made to believe it was the Soviets who dropped the nukes on their cities and not the American government.
Japanese kids will be forced to learn their real history on the Internet.
And they won't be the only ones.
The new CIA, MI6, and Mossad approved textbooks in Syria will brainwash the future generation of Syrians into believing that the destruction of their society was all caused by Russia.
This December it will be two years since Assad fled Syria like a coward in the middle of the night. All the Western talking points about the post-Assad era have not come to fruition. The economy is still dead. Millions of Syrian refugees remain in Europe. And the Syrian state has steadily drifted towards extremism and sectarianism.
Syria's new "leaders" are humiliated every day by Israel. They are constantly made to remember where they are on the new totem pole.
The Syrian nation, much like the Ukrainian nation, was sacrificed for an Israeli project.
Many of us warned of this reality since the beginning of 2011 when the Obama White House approved regime change operations in Libya and other Arab countries.
The regimes changed, but always for the worse.
The many different components of Syria have all been treated badly by the new terrorist regime. The Druze and Alawites still lack true clarity about their future, fearing the Al-Qaeda hencemen in Damascus are just waiting to either expel or obliterate them. And the Kurdish groups sacrificed their lives, homes, and political reputation for five hours of language classes per week and some dual-language signposts in their towns.
It's safe to say the Syrian goys got screwed by the Jews. Things aren't looking too bright for them, whatever their background or political persuasions.
The idea that is promulgated out of Washington, that those conquered by America and Israel enjoy an economic boom, rings hollow in Syria and Libya.
These nations were destroyed and sacrificed.
As were Germany and Japan.
Those countries experienced economic revival after WWII thanks to their own hard work, technological expertise, and innate national intelligence, not because the demons in Washington were benevolent towards them.
The current rulers of Syria do not possess the intelligence or aspiration to rebuild their country and attract foreign investment like the Germans and Japanese did. They're interested in destruction, not creation. They're building an ideological terrorist army, which will most likely be used against Lebanon and Iraq, in the service of Turkish geopolitical aims.
Israel will huff and puff but it knows the would-be Sultan in Constantinople and Al-Qaeda in Damascus will never dare come for it.
