11/ Regardless of who has been in the White House for the past decades, rulers in Muslim countries have danced to their tune. Red or Blue, it has made no difference - and all for the sake of US-Corporate Interests.
10/ Many will vote for Greens or Independents, but unless these movements conform, they won’t change the system. The political machine either transforms those who engage, or excludes them entirely. #USPolitics#PoliticalReform
9/ Neither party is good for ordinary people, in the US or abroad. Both endorse and protect a system that benefits the powerful, not the many. #Inequality#PowerStructures
8/ Domestically, Democrats push liberal social values, while Republicans have a mixed base—some appeal to conservative Christians, others, like Liz Cheney, align more with Democrats. #AmericanPolitics#SocialIssues
7/ Unsurprisingly Biden didn’t change Trump’s approach to the Middle East or China. The policies may shift in rhetoric, but in substance they continue to serve the same powerful interests. #Biden#ForeignPolicy
6/ Trump, in his last term, was seen as less interventionist, launching fewer wars than his predecessors. But he still prioritized securing “Israel” by normalizing relations with Arab states—bypassing Palestinians entirely. #MiddleEast#TrumpForeignPolicy
5/ Whether it's “globalists” like Biden, Obama, or Clinton-or “nationalists” like Trump, the goal is the same: serving corporate America. They may represent different factions of corporate interests, but it’s ALWAYS corporate power that wins. #CorporateAmerica#USElections2024
4/ The political parties (Democrats and Republicans) institutionalize this system. One is more liberal, the other more conservative, but both ultimately serve the same capitalist machine. They’re like different “madhabs” within the same political creed. #USPolitics
3/ The US system is designed to uphold a capitalist economy that primarily benefits big business: military, pharma, finance. For most people, the system offers little beyond crumbs. #Capitalism#Inequality
2/ The US is more than one person who wins an election. It's a vast machine: the White House, Congress, Senate, Supreme Court, Pentagon, State Department, Treasury, Intelligence Services & more. The job of the machine stays the same, no matter who’s in charge. #USPolitics
US ELECTIONS: Who’s Gonna Win?
🧵1/ The world is watching the US Presidential elections, and while it’s undeniably important for the rest of the world, the gap between the main candidates is much smaller than many think. #USElection2024
Israel still seeking to play the victim. When US embassies were attacked in 1998 in Nairobi, America bombed Sudan in retaliation, when Houthis fired on western ships, the US/UK bombed Yemen. What was Israel expecting after Damascus, flowers chocolates and a teddy bear
Today marks the anniversary of the brutal civil war in Sudan. Systemic rape, tens of thousands dead, mass displacement & 18m people facing acute hunger. The main factions & their foreign masters are looting the country’s precious oil & gold resources and engaging in proxy wars.
