We in the Caribbean have suffered 500 years of colonial-imperialist domination ever since Columbus landed on our shores. As a legacy of this colonial plunder of the Caribbean we the people of African heritage are today in the grip of financial servitude to the American and European bankers and their multi-lateral lending institutions such as the IMF and the World Bank. None of the so-called politically independent Caribbean countries are truly sovereign nations. None of them can take independent action to improve our economy and social services to a level that our people do not have to emigrate in thousands to other countries in search of better opportunities. Ironically the majority of our contemporary politicians are satisfied with the status quo, a posture similar to most slaves at the beginning of the 19th century who saw no alternative to remaining in servitude. Emancipation in 1832 was for them a major shock. A similar historical inflection point is imminent as Putin and Russia are on the verge of a historical defeat of the Anglo-Saxon 500-year historical domination. Such a defeat which will eventually force the Caribbean out of its current slumber regardless of the feelings of the politicians and the ruling elites.
I believe that it is the duty of those of us who want a better world than the mess that Westerners have created to keep on informing and educating those among us who continue to slumber as though there is nothing at stake.
Excellent summary and analysis...may I add the hands of the political elites in power are tied not they cannot take action but because they have assimilated into the corruption and decadence of the globalists former colonial powers.
The question still remain why citizens in the democratic West allow the corrupt elite to continue to act against the national interests, like we have in Germany regarding the self-defeating Sanctions against Russia.
Citizens? I think better terms are uninformed uneducated and amoral masses who will vote for politicians who promise them that they will uphold their right to kill their progeny... ..many in the US and in western Europe are infected with "wokism", concerned only with their own well being and what the corrupt elites and their partners in legacy media tell them to believe. The elites control every aspect of life ...it is fast becoming an orwellian society...endless wars...on those who dare to push back...will gutsy Trump capture the WH? He claims he's an outsider who wants to clean the swamps of DC. I'll believe it when I see it.

I'll put it this way. In my youth I did not believe in Satan.
Now I do.

Exactly! He did not inspire much confidence during his erratic first term!
