Global Dominance

Revelation 13 and verses 11 and 12 is quite clear when it predicts that “I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.” It is also very clear that the one nation that fits that description is the United States.
The Bio found on the Amazon website describes RAHUL MAHAJAN (Ph.D. University of Texas at Austin) as a longtime antiwar activist at the local and national level. He is a founding member of the Nowar Collective and serves on the National Board of Peace Action, the nation's largest grassroots peace organization. His first book, The New Crusade: America's War on Terrorism has been described as "mandatory reading for all those who want to get a handle on the war on terrorism." He writes frequently for mainstream and alternative print media and for websites like Common Dreams, Zmag, Alternet, and Counterpunch. On November 2, 2002, a book entitled: “Full Spectrum Dominance, U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond” was published. The Author of that book was Dr. Rahul Mahajan. He begins his narrative with a description of the true motivations of the war in Iraq.
“The war was an integral, and perhaps the primary, component in a sweeping new vision of U.S. foreign policy associated with a group of ideologues who call themselves neoconservatives and who have emerged as the dominant influence in this administration. Although the roots of virtually every neoconservative idea can be discerned in the policies of the 1990's, this is the first time in the post-Cold War era that their vision of using direct military means to extend the dominance of the United States has become the central approach.” Dr. Rahul Mahajan, “Full Spectrum Dominance, U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond,” page 1
Dr. Mahajan clearly defines the objectives of the actions taken by the United States as global in nature, starting with the domination of Iraq. He however reflects upon the earlier methods used to take control of Cuba.
“In a sense, had there been any doubt about U.S. intentions for Iraq, it should have been dispelled when Deputy Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz rediscovered the doctrine of "odious debt." This doctrine was first used in 1898, after the Spanish-American War. The United States had "liberated" Cuba and decided to own it. The most blatant expression of the ownership was the Platt Amendment to the Cuban constitution that gave the United States the right to intervene in Cuba whenever it wished. When Spain pressed for repayment of Cuba's debt to Spain, the United States argued that the debt was invalid because it had been "imposed upon the people of Cuba without their consent and by force of arms." Dr. Rahul Mahajan, “Full Spectrum Dominance, U.S. Power in Iraq and Beyond,” page 2
There are those who question this interpretation of the intent of the American Elite. They claim that the United States actions are simply defensive. If this were the case, then Time Magazine’s October. 16, 2015 article would truly be inaccurate.
“The current 9,800 troops in Afghanistan is just a fraction of the U.S. forces stationed around the world. According to the latest quarterly Department of Defense data on active duty, there are currently 150,560 U.S. military personnel serving in foreign countries. But that number excludes countries such as Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, Kuwait and Syria as the U.S. doesn’t break down numbers of military personnel in many countries in the Middle East due to host nation sensitivities. There are currently about 35,000 troops serving in the 20 nations in the Middle East region that make up the U.S. Central Command area of responsibility, according to Commander Elissa Smith, press officer for the Middle East at the Office of the Secretary of Defense. About 3,200 of those U.S. forces are in Iraq.” Julia Zorthian, and Heather Jones, Time Magazine, This Graphic Shows Where US Troops are Stationed Around The World. Oct. 16, 2015
Since the completion of the Second World War, the United States has continued to have military personnel stationed in the countries of our former enemies. Japan 48,828. Germany 37704. South Korea 27,558. Italy 11,697. One can easily see the reason why any attempt to pull troops out of any country will meet with the objection of the Full Spectrum Dominance Elite. The power predicted in Revelation 13 and verses 11 and 12 is clearly established. Implementation if the predicted command is all that is needed.
“I beheld another beast coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb, and he spake as a dragon. And he exerciseth all the power of the first beast before him, and causeth the earth and them which dwell therein to worship the first beast, whose deadly wound was healed.” Revelation 13, 11, 12
