The 'Special Relationship' Is Collapsing… and That's a Good Thing

The collapse of the special relationship is a very good thing, since America now has a real opportunity to rediscover its true anti-imperial nature by working with Russia, China, India and other nations.

British Ambassador Kim Darroch's return to London from his failed mission in America is being hailed by many naïve commentators as yet another proof that President Trump is a crazed ego-maniac who cannot take criticism from a seasoned professional diplomat.

During the weeks since the "Darroch memo" scandal erupted, mainstream media has totally mis-diagnosed the nature of the breakdown in US-British relations, and has brushed over the most relevant evidence that has been brought to light by Darroch's cables. This spinning of the narrative has made it falsely appear that the Ambassador merely criticized the President as "clumsy, diplomatically inept, unpredictable and dysfunctional" and was thus unjustly attacked by the President causing the poor diplomate to resign saying "the current situation is making it impossible for me to carry out my role as I would like." Former British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt went so far as to say that Darroch was "the best of Britain" and encouraged all diplomats to continue to "speak truth to power." International press on both sides of the ocean followed suit portraying Darroch as a hero among men.

Hog wash.

The reality is that Darroch's messages to the British Foreign Office go much deeper and reveal something very ugly that challenges the deepest assumptions about recent history and modern geopolitics.

Sir Darroch and Britain's Invisible Hand Exposed

Sir Darroch, (Knight Commander of St. Michael and St. George) is not your typical British diplomat. The Knight made a name for himself as a leading agent of Tony Blair while acting as Ambassador to the European Union from 2007-2011 in an effort to win international support for a regime change operation against Iran, Syria and Libya.

Blair and the highest levels of the British oligarchy had managed America as its "dumb giant" throughout the entire post-9/11 regime change program on the Middle East. While many have labelled this policy as "American", we shall come to see that it was merely the carrying out of the "Blair Doctrine" announced in the 1999 speech in Chicago calling for a post-nation state (post-Westphalian) world order.

It is important to remind ourselves that the dodgy WMD dossier had been crafted by the British Foreign Office before being used by neo con hawks such as John Bolton and Cheney as justification to blow up Iraq in 2003. It was also the earlier Anglo-Saudi sponsored BAE black operation run by Prince Bandar bin Sultan which funded and directed 9/11 earlier. As US Ambassador beginning in January 2016, Sir Darroch was instrumental in vetting Christopher Steele as "absolutely legit". Steele's "dodgy dossier" on Trump was used to justify the greatest witch hunt of a sitting President in history.

When viewed in the same light as the British-directed Russia-gating of the President, these memos shed valuable light upon the Byzantine methods which British intelligence has used to conduct its subtle manipulation of America for a very long time.

Trump Whisperers and Britain's Other Tools

In his memos, Sir Darroch called for "flooding the zone" with Trump whisperers who can influence the President's perceptions of the world and push him towards the British agenda on issues such as de-carbonization, Free Trade, and war with Iran.
