Sachs' essay brings together a lot of pieces of the puzzle associated with US behavior toward Russia and other countries like China. It confirms what I have long suspected: the US will only be satisfied when it achieves complete world dominance. Sadly, this is an extremely pernicious goal that may well lead to a catastrophic, and final, nuclear war that destroys the US and most of humanity.

That piece is realization expanding. I have been struggling to understand my own country. The USA. I’m coming up on my seventh decade and the veil is being lifted. The US has not been a benign force globally. We’re presented with good guys and bad guys and some are coming to the consensus that US policy is and has been a malevolent force worldwide. And yet, who are we being presented at the DNC? Clintons. Henry Kissinger being presented as a heroic Secretary of State at his death. I remember the joy when perestroika happened. The cold war over. Can’t have that.
