American dangerous foreign policy .

A dangerous foreign policy.

When I started writing this , it went through several revisions . It was supposed to be about the nations foreign policy .  For the last few weeks there have been alarming incidents between Russia and America not seen since the cold war era. While all this has been buried under the dirt of the Bret Kavanaugh fiasco. Which is the biggest national distraction to the reality of our American situation .  US Ambassador to the UN, Nikki Haley announced she would resign sent a wave of speculation . One of them is that she was the the author of an anonymous anti-Trump op-ed, is a senior official in the Trump administration. While that might be worthy of a investigation . Haley , sorry to say this she was nothing more than a parrot doing the bidding , following the John Bolton doctrine of hard line policy towards other nations that would deserve better diplomatic solutions than waging war , preemptive strikes . Endless costly wars , I am sure many Americans agree with me that its time to stop this dangerous foreign policy pursuit. It’s clear that many voters gave up When they voted in 2016, they didn’t care for the international institutions the U.S. had so carefully constructed after World War II: nato; the United Nations; the World Bank. They didn’t care for their country to protect the liberal world order, to lead the “Free World.” Voters on the left and the right showed their readiness for a policy turn inwards. They wanted a country focused on domestic policies. Yet that too our nation is running behind.In January 2017, American foreign policy was, if not in crisis, in big trouble. Strong forces were putting stress on the old global political order: the rise of China to a power with more than half the productive capacity of the United States (and defense spending to match); the partial recovery of a resentful Russia under a skilled leader. I completely realized that my country is in trouble . I think what Franklin Graham said last year that“Our country is in trouble, and I don’t have a whole lot of faith in the political parties,” said in a video posted on his Facebook page .  While Graham focus was the domestic national issues “Shootings, riots and protests now claim the headlines about America, and that’s heartbreaking,” he said. “We are in desperate need of Divine intervention. We need healing. Prayer is what can make a difference in America.” My concern is our nation's foregoing  foreign  policy , the way the United States has eroded relations with Russia and China  . The Trump Administration has been the most "hostile" American regime in our nations history,  if you compare with Bush , Obama , our nation is at tripping point for a disaster on the international front . You hope that President Trump would have move forward regardless of the Russia fiasco to restore diplomatic relations with Russia , or changing the old guards views of Syria , the Palestinian cause . First of all backing out of the Iran deal.  One of the dangerous consequences of violating the Iran deal is a loss of credibility for the US, say critics of Donald Trump’s decision including former president Barack Obama. Iran and all other parties have respected the deal’s terms, they point out, making the US look like an unreliable international partner. On America's part in pulling out of the treaty has created a great rift with our allies , its troubling that diplomacy was thrown out for a war rhetoric . Most astounding  is that both political parties [ Democrats and Republicans ]  for the turn against Russia by rank-and-file .Still, the belligerent rhetoric To bluster about Russian actions being an “act of war” is to suggest that the U.S. may actually have to go to war with Russia, or risk appearing too weak to defend its own sovereignty.  The "threats" this week, During an Oct. 2 press briefing, the U.S. permanent representative to NATO, Kay Bailey Hutchison, raised eyebrows with comments that suggested the United States is preparing to “take out” Russian missiles deployed in violation of the 1987 Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty. While vary little was said about this on our American TV news medias , "referencing" the 1987 treaty that both President Obama and President trump pulled out , but "falsely" accusing Russia of backing out of this treaty , is mind boggling .  While our nation is consumed by Russo-phobia. Our nation seems to be losing a foothold in global relations with other nations .  Yet with the Beltway in hysteria over hacking of the DNC and John Podesta emails, and the Russophobia raging in Washington, we appear to be paralyzed when it comes to engaging with Russia. China and Russia are setting economic partnerships with other nations , conducting joint military exercises that are a bit alarming. America seems to have fallen behind in conducting a peaceable dialog with other superpowers , at the UN level Niki Haley our US ambassador  Even so, Haley's rhetoric ruffled feathers and could have had international consequences .  In my nearly 40 years I have never seen our nation take such unrealistic approach with other nations . Making "threats" , pulling out of international treaties is endangering American global interests .  This is what America has become. We need to take a long look in the mirror, because we are in an advanced state of decline. Hopefully the American people will start to wake up, because time to turn things around is quickly running out.
