Trump is fulfilling a campaign promise, to end regime change wars, opening the promise of the emergence of a new era in southwest Asia, based on reviving the principle of the Peace of Westphalia.<\/p>\n<p>So why the hysteria? In this week&#8217;s webcast, Helga Zepp LaRouche explains why if Trump follows through with his pledge, and then proceeds to coordinate closely with Putin and Xi Jinping, it is a death knell to British geopolitics. That he is now acting on his own authority as President, ignoring the advice of his would-be controllers, has heightened the hysteria. This fear was signaled in a piece in &#8222;Foreign Affairs&#8220; earlier this year titled &#8222;The End of the Democratic Century,&#8220; i.e., the liberal British Empire. The ongoing collapse of many of the Trans-Atlantic governments, due to revolts by their people, such as in the Brexit vote and the &#8222;yellow vest&#8220; movement spreading from France, demonstrates the failure of neocon strategic policy and neo-liberal economic policy.<\/p>\n<p>And while these regimes totter, the Belt-and-Road Initiative continues to pick up steam and gain adherents, such as Paul Kagame, President of Rwanda. The progress of the &#8222;Singapore model&#8220; on the Korean peninsula further exemplifies the potential for the coming year to be the year of the triumph of the New Paradigm.<\/p>\n<p>It should provide some food for thought over the coming weekend, as we come to a tumultuous end of the year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The announcement by President Trump of an immediate withdrawal of U.S. troops from Syria, and reduction of troops in Afghanistan, has prompted a hypocritical and hysterical response from the pro-war party, which includes &#8222;leftists&#8220; and &#8222;liberal&#8220; media, in addition to the usual suspects among the neocons.
