Indian-Canadian mutual “diplomatic” (intel station chief) expulsions over murder of Canadian Sikh community leader, Punjab separatist activist, & Indian wanted list highlighter Hardeep Singh Nijjar, whose extradition had been requested, are way, WAY bigger deal than you might have imagined. Canada has been a hub for Sikh separatist & terrorist financing & planning since at least 1985, with the downing of Air India Flight 182… &—hey I’m jus’ sayin’, I dunno anything—our deceased subject had been magically naturalized after coming to Canada illegally & being rejected several times while trying to lie & fraud his way through the system. If it was Indian agents who tapped him, his is very likely the FIRST Indian assassination in the West, SINCE the termination of Amritsar butcher Michael O’Dwyer, incidentally, by a Punjabi Sikh, in London in 1940. (Of course, that was pre-statehood, & an individually-motivated act.) It may not be a “typical” Global South Rising story… but, it’s a Global South Rising story… &, IT’S ALL THANKS TO THE ROOF HAVING *NOT* CAVED IN ON RUSSIA AFTER THE YOO-KRAYNE INVASION. (If you recall, it was ALSO Russia, & the Western standoff with global Marxism & socialism (led by Russia), that inspired, &, in some cases, led, decolonization in the 1950s-1970s.) ***LATEST BREAKING:*** As reported, Canada’s conclusion as to India’s role was based in part on spying on comms between Indian govt & Indian embassy/consular personnel in Canada by a “major ally” among the “Five Eyes” (translation: USA or UK.) ALSO, getting worse by the hour, India is now also suspending visa services in Canada, & asking Canada to reduce diplomatic staff in India overall. (Sounds like U.S.-Russia relations since 2014, LOL!!! Wait till China gets in on the act!!! It’s not just Salman Rushdie or Russian radioactive sushi anymore… In principle, IMHO, no “exiles in the West” are safe now.)

Communism was evil, and so is Big Government neoconservatism; there is no contradiction there
(By Chris Moore) -- Even though President Eisenhower gravely warned of the growing military-industrial complex on his departure from office, libertarian Lew Rockwell takes issue with the fact that the military-industrial complex was constructed in the first place. Rockwell in The American Conservative: Eisenhower’s farewell speech was a long and nearly hysterical argument for the Cold War. He presented it as more than a military policy against Russia, but rather as a grand metaphysical struggle that should take over our minds and souls, as bizarre as that must sound to the current generation.
His words were Wilsonian, even messianic. The job of U.S. military policy is to “foster progress in human achievement” and enhance “dignity and integrity” the world over. That’s a rather expansive role for government by any standard. But he went further. An enemy stands in the way of achieving this dream, and this enemy is “global in scope, atheistic in character, ruthless in purpose, and insidious in method.” This great struggle “commands our whole attention, absorbs our very beings.”
Because some crusty apparatchiks are imposing every manner of economic control over Russia and a few satellites, U.S. foreign policy must absorb the whole of our beings? So much for limited government...
It’s easy for Rockwell to dismiss the Soviet threat in hindsight. But the blood on the hands of the Communists by Ike’s era was already in the tens of millions, and would grow. Communism and Leftism was and is objectively and transcendentally evil, and America was historically right up against it.

That doesn’t justify the current, government-induced and cultivated hysteria against Islam, nor perhaps even the extent of the militarization of the entire nation during the Cold War, which has put contemporary Americans at the mercy of Big Government sociopaths running the Establishment.
But let’s not re-frame history in order to undermine current American statist overreach and its leviathan agenda. After all, the current neocon-neoliberal ruling regime and Washington Establishment is Trotskyite in background, influence, and nature, thus emphasizing soulless Communism’s history of mass murder in no way validates it’s heir’s continuous evil ideology in contemporarily insane Washington.
Communism was evil; neoconservatism/neoliberalism/Big Government statist-liberal capitalism is evil; there is no contradiction there.
