After years of accusing Russia of using food as A weapon in its conflict with Ukraine, State Department “Culinary Ambassador” José Andrés is working with the Israeli Government to supplant UNRWA as the main supplier of aid to Northern Gaza.

State Department linked Spanish celebrity Chef José Andrés has emerged as the US Government’s preferred conduit for aid to enter Gaza, following the Biden Administration’s decision to suspend funding to the enclave’s main supplier of food, aid and education, the UNRWA.

The operation appears designed to serve as A stop gap measure to provide minimal quantities of food to Gaza’s famine stricken population until the US Military finishes building a pier in the Mediterranean Sea, and A shadowy contractor run by former US Marines and CIA officials is able to implement an aid program called “Blue Beach Plan.”

Andrés’ organization, World Central Kitchen, has already finished constructing its own jetty, which was made from the rubble heaps in Gaza, A decision that virtually guaranteed the building materials contain the remains of humans killed by Israeli bombing.

A perfect symbol of Western Hypocrisy on Gaza

I welcomed José Andrés of @WCKitchen @chefjoseandres as @U24_gov_ua ambassador. His strong voice helps us maintain global support.

José Andrés has supported Ukraine and Ukrainians since the first days of the full-scale war. He is still here with us.

We will always be grateful. pic.twitter.com/nZ1kAxHOYc

The chef’s intimate relationship with the US predates the current conflict in Ukraine. In 2020, he was honored at an event by the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, where he was warmly introduced by now CIA chief Bill Burns, who called it A “Special Pleasure” to bring Andrés onstage.

The result of this collusion appears to be A series of double standards that treats the lives of Palestinian as secondary to those living under the US Government’s preferred Regimes, A disparity which was unintentionally highlighted by recent headlines from US outlets who conducted interviews with the chef.

In April 2022, Axios wrote “José Andrés: Russia is ‘Totally’ Using Starvation as A Weapon of War.”

Adriel Kasonta – This is the Way The West Ends, Ukraine’s Humiliation and Gaza’s Shame Accelerating Estrangement of West and the Rest at A Crucial Turning Point in Global Power Relations

With the United States entangled in conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza and the threat of A War with China looming large, Professor Michael Brenner’s insights and views on the State of the US led Liberal Order are arguably as timely and important as ever.

Brenner, A respected Luminary on Trans Atlantic Relations and International Security, is Professor Emeritus of International Affairs at the University of Pittsburgh and a Senior Fellow at the Center for Transa Atlantic Relations at the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS).

He has also served at the Foreign Service Institute, the US Department of Defense and Westinghouse. In A wide ranging and no holds barred interview with Asia Times’ contributor Adriel Kasonta, Brenner lays out how the US and Collective West lost their moral authority and way.

Adriel Kasonta Despite what we hear from the Western political class and the compliant stenographers from the MainStream Media, the World doesn’t seem to look as they want us to believe. The hard reality on the ground, known to anyone who lives anywhere but Europe or the US, is that The collective West is experiencing an accelerated decline in political and economic domains, with significant moral ramifications. Could you please tell our readers what is the root cause of this state of affairs and what is the rationale behind continuing this collective suicide?

Michael Brenner I suggest that we formulate the issue by asking what is the causal direction between the moral decline and The Collective West’s political and economic decline? On Ukraine, it has been A fundamental Geo Strategic error that has had negative moral consequences, the cynical sacrifice of Half A Million Ukrainians used as cannon fodder and physical destruction of the country, in the cause of weakening and marginalizing Russia.

The stunning feature of the Palestine affair is the readiness of immoral Government elites, indeed the near entirety of the political class, to give their implicit blessing to the Atrocities and War Crimes Israel has committed over the past five months, which is having profound repercussions on The West’s standing and influence Globally.

At one moment, they speak proudly about the superiority of Western values while condemning the practices of other Countries, at another, they lean over backwards to justify far greater Humanitarian Abuses, to provide the perpetrator with the arms to destroy to kill and to maim innocent civilians, and in the case of the United States, to extend diplomatic cover in the United Nations Security Council.

In the process, they are dissipating their standing in the eyes of the World outside The West, representing two thirds of Humanity. The latter’s historical dealings with the Countries of The West, including the relatively recent past, left A residue of skepticism about American led claims to being the World’s ethical standard setters. That sentiment has given way to outright disgust in the face of this blatant display of hypocrisy. (…)

AK In your recent essay “The West’s Reckoning?”, you mentioned that the situation in Ukraine humiliates The West and the tragedy in Gaza shames it. Can you expand on this A bit more?

MB Defeat in Ukraine entails much more than the Military collapse of the Ukrainian Forces that is in the cards. For the United States has led its allies into what amounts to A campaign to permanently diminish Russia, to neutralize it as A political or economic presence in Europe, to eliminate A major obstacle to consolidating American Global Hegemony.

The West has thrown everything they have into that campaign, their stock of modern weapons, A corps of advisers, Tens of Billions of dollars, A draconian set of economic sanctions designed to bring the Russian economy to its knees and A relentless project aimed at isolating Russia and undermining Putin’s position.

It has failed ignominiously on every count. Russia is considerably stronger on every dimension than it was before the War, its economy is more robust than any Western economy, it has proven to be Militarily superior; and it has won the sympathies of nearly the eetire World outside The Collective West.

Michael Hudson, the foremost economist in our time, explains why Europe will either end Its dependencies on the US or else continue Its decline.

Here is the video in which Hudson explains this

Rent seeking referred to there means incomes from private investments, and Hudson argues that the psychopathically unlimited greed of the billionaires who control the US Government is now forcing a collapse throughout their Global Empire, but especially in Europe.

Investigative historian Eric Zuesse’s latest book, AMERICA’S EMPIRE OF EVIL, Hitler’s Posthumous Victory, and Why the Social Sciences Need to Change, is about how America took over the World after World War II in order to enslave it to US and allied billionaires. Their cartels extract the World’s wealth by control of not only their ‘News’ media but the social ‘Sciences’, duping the public.
