Bingo. Thats why even in the current context: beyond some shared sentiments about the migrant crisis, you see places like Hungary forging strong ties with China, Iran and the like. And within the right wing of Western countries, lots of anti-Israel rhetoric, and talk about bringing down the reign of the US dollar which is code for lets restore our dominance again and offset America rather than strengthen our alliance under new terms set by Trump agenda.
Poland is cool though :)!
Yes Poland seems to have it together. I might be reaching here, but the origin of the right’s anti-Semitism might have been in its Monarchist roots? Europeans tended to sneer at the new American Republic way back in its infancy.
I for one am not one who believes that independent countries should forge alliances only to be dominated by big players. The neocons seem to take this approach. Neither Hungary nor any other country is bound by our policy on China, Russia, Israel, Iran, Iraq, Syria etc etc. And neither should they be bound by dollarization, which has enabled and strengthened the Welfare-warfare state, the Fed...
It may be that we need to suffer as a Republic for a few years to demolish 100 years+ of progressive trash.
I look forward to the day when our exceptionalism comes from fidelity to God and Constitution, and not interventionist foreign policy.
