John Birch Society foreign policy meets leftist big government in today’s USA

US Army Captain and Christian missionary John Birch was killed by Maoist forces in China shortly after the end of the Second World War.
The anti-communist American right named John Birch the first victim of the ‘war against communism’. To this end, Robert W. Welch Jr. founded an organisation in Captain Birch’s name in 1958, the John Birch Society (JBS).

Steve Bannon: Trump’s sacrificial lamb to slaughter

Steve Bannon’s demotion and deletion from his seat observing meetings of the National Security Council, came a day prior to America’s illegal bombing of Syria.
Bannon was well known for his conservative views which were deeply anti-establishment, anti-deep state, mildly pro-Russian and totally anti-Salifist and anti-Saudi.
The timing of Bannon’s demotion and the missile strikes on Syria is unlikely to be coincidental. It is certainly symbolic.
The man who helped define the now dead Trump movement, was moved over whilst the neo-cons and deep state veterans remain.

How Obama killed the anti-war movement among liberal Democrats.

Barack Obama had and in many ways still has one of the slickest PR machines of any US President.
