Afrasianet - Nicolas Tohme - In the face of all the tragedies in the Middle East, as well as many countries in the world, getting rid of American dominance is more necessary than ever, and there is no alternative but the BRICS.
Sooner or later, and not too long ago, the BRICS will have to help the world get rid of Zionist-American domination.
Conflicts in the world have intensified, as if they were endless, as if humanity was destined to live with wars and tensions, and it has become clear that wherever a conflict has arisen, the United States has caused it, directly or indirectly through allies, with the aim of maintaining its supremacy and domination, and preventing the rise of rival powers.
The conflicts have worsened since the United States began to see the rise of China in particular, after it opened the world arenas to it after the fall of the Soviet Union. It began to make plans to curb the rise of China. The United States did not feel an existential threat to it during the time of the Soviet Union, which did not seek an actual confrontation with the United States, and all the Soviet Union did was support movements under the title of "liberation", and these movements were often short-lived, which the United States and its allies were able to suppress and end it.
Although liberation movements have taken the character of overthrowing the authorities and controlling them, whether peaceful or violent, they have not once sought to confront the main point of American control, which is control by the dollar, and the strangeness lies in the Soviet Union's silence on this control, precisely from this point. Certainly, Soviet economists were aware of the Bretton Woods Agreement, which established the United States' dollar-denominated control of the world, based on a dominant economic power inherited from the time of Western colonialism.
In the early 1970s, the United States of America played its game, and was able to make the dollar the reserve for all the world's currencies as an alternative to gold, and gradually, the economies of most countries were linked to the US central bank through the only banking system in the world, which is the "SWIFT" system, and thus the world became hostage to the tips of the United States, which became able to bankrupt countries and overthrow others, and became brazenly dependent on the economic blockade system, and economic sanctions on countries, governments, and personalities, that is, on almost all of humanity. Who did not have a bank account, no matter how small?
With the advent of online technology in the late 1990s, the United States tightened its control over the world, trying to consolidate its control in various ways by owning the largest data bank through the spread of the Internet, mobile phones, and artificial intelligence technologies.
Meanwhile, China was a partner of the United States in the development of modern technology, and began to rely on it for its economic advancement, and the United States felt the dangers of Chinese competition, in parallel with China's economic and technological rise, so it accelerated the attempt to curb China and prevent its rise.
Not long after Russia returned to take a role at the global level, and both countries – Russia and China – sensed the danger of confrontation with the United States of America, and they had no choice but to ally to confront the American plans, until they reached the establishment of an alternative system from the American system, which is the experience of the "BRICS", in cooperation with South Africa, India, and Brazil, and the system is expanding with the entry of many active countries into it, knowing that reaching the stage of the "BRICS" alternative to the American system requires many decades.
The BRICS option is an alternative to global Americanization, but it is a cold line that relies on economics to avoid a military clash that threatens humanity due to the fact that many countries possess nuclear weapons, and in abundance capable of erasing human civilization.
It seems that the BRICS countries, especially China and Russia, were aware of the dangers of confrontation with the American, so they quickly crystallized the BRICS system, which now has its own bank, adopts national currencies in trade exchange, and gold as a reserve cover for currencies, and the imminent adoption of its own currency, thus establishing a line that can be dispensed with by the US dollar, which has lost much of its strength in the last ten years.
The conflict is worsening, and the United States senses the imminent risks, leaving no opportunity but to use it, whether in closing the markets to Chinese expansion (curbing the Silk Line and the Belt), preventing the entry of investments into the world markets, or in wars to prevent the rise of the other, so the conflicts have worsened, starting with the Ukraine war, through the open war in the Middle East, and the various interventions in Latin America or Africa.
In Lebanon, the American has been preventing the rise of the country, as well as the Middle East, and continues to dismantle countries, besiege them with wars and destruction, leading to the destruction of Syria, the attempt to liquidate the resistance, and the tightening of the siege on every arena that is not fully included in his project.
Lebanon is in dire need of a way out of this tight suffocation imposed on it by the United States, and it has been tightening its suffocation starting in 2019 by equivalence of arms or a return to the Middle Ages, then by the recent war, or by the delivery of a Lebanese authority loyal to its policy.
In the face of all the tragedies that the Middle East, as well as many countries of the world, getting rid of American control has become more necessary than ever, and there is no alternative but the BRICS, which requires it to secure an alternative banking system from SWIFT, an alternative currency of the dollar, and huge investments available in the countries participating in the BRICS, which have enormous financial, investment, and technological capacities, starting with China, Russia, Iran, or Saudi Arabia, and other countries that have joined and are preparing to join.
Many countries may not dare to get out of American control and resort to the BRICS, but Lebanon, which has resisted the fiercest wars (1982 and 2024), can forcibly get out of American control, if an agreement is reached with the BRICS on a comprehensive alternative in the economy, finance, technology, investment, and reconstruction.
