Nascent Yemen

An examination of the historical background of American conduct reveals deep-rooted origins embedded in a culture of genocide. Since the founding of the United States of America, it has spent more than 90 percent of its existence engaged in aggressive wars, beginning with the extermination of the Indigenous peoples, the “Native Americans,” of whom more than 150 million are said to have perished in one of the most horrific humanitarian tragedies in human history. This settler-colonial model, built upon the ruins of an entire nation, is presented as the key to understanding contemporary U.S. support for the Israeli entity. Both entities share policies of replacement and the elimination of native populations through displacement, destruction, and killing. Washington, in this view, sees the Israeli entity as an extension of itself and therefore continues to provide it with political and military cover to commit crimes against the Palestinian people, considering control over the resources of other nations a natural right of the “world’s policeman.”

The fundamental condition shaping the course and evolution of American history, and everything it has achieved in terms of power and material accomplishments, is described as the absence of virtue, wisdom, reason, ethics, spirit, emotion, mercy, and humanity. In their place, this account argues, prevail savagery, permissiveness, hatred, cruelty, and moral decay—in short, the negation of every human, ethical, and spiritual virtue from the core American leadership and elite personality that played the decisive role in the events of U.S. history.

America: From Wars of Extermination to Strategic Suicide
The bloody story of the United States is said to begin at point zero, when this entity was founded on the remains of the Indigenous population after their extermination and the seizure of their lands by force of arms, establishing a doctrine of expansion through bloodshed. Before the blood of its founding had dried, America embarked on a series of external wars, most notably its early aggression against the people of Nicaragua in 1833. This marked the establishment of the “backyard” policy in the southern part of the American continent, relying on local agents to ensure U.S. dominance, a pattern that, according to this account, continues in its aggression against that country to this day.

With the end of the Second World War, Washington inaugurated a new era of unilateral “state terrorism.” On August 6 and 8, 1945, it committed what is known to be the only nuclear crime in history by bombing the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, killing 300,000 civilians in moments and leaving a legacy of congenital deformities that have haunted generations. American power then extended to devastate the Korean Peninsula, entrenching its division into two states, before sinking into the Vietnam War, an aggression that lasted two decades and ended in 1975. There, the U.S. military burned land and people alike using the toxic “Agent Orange” and internationally prohibited napalm bombs.

This aggressive appetite did not stop at Asia but extended to the Arab and Islamic regions. The United States is described as having waged direct and devastating wars against Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria, Yemen, and Iran, employing weapons of mass destruction such as depleted uranium and white phosphorus, which killed tens of thousands of Iraqis. This trajectory continued through its current occupation of areas in Syria, its interventions in Somalia, and its ongoing threats against Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran under the pretext of nuclear programs.

As a culmination of this escalatory path, U.S. policy has pushed the situation in Ukraine to the brink, posing an existential threat to Russian national security and forcing Moscow to launch its military operation in February 2022. Rather than seeking a solution, Washington is accused of turning Ukraine into a battlefield to exhaust Russia, supplying Kyiv with all manner of lethal weapons in an effort to impose international isolation on Moscow.

Overthrowing Governments in Guatemala and the Dominican Republic
In a Central Intelligence Agency operation in 1954, Washington overthrew Guatemala’s democratically elected president, Jacobo Árbenz, and installed a military dictatorship led by Carlos Castillo Armas, the first in a series of U.S.-backed authoritarian rulers. Through this coup, Washington regained its military and economic interests in Guatemala, which subsequently descended into a 36-year civil war that claimed more than 200,000 lives.

In the Dominican Republic, Rafael Leónidas Trujillo Molina, the U.S.-backed dictator, is held responsible for the deaths of between 20,000 and 30,000 people. He ruled from 1930 until his assassination in 1961. In 1962, a new democratic government led by leftist Juan Bosch was elected, only to be overthrown the following year amid U.S. accusations that Bosch was weak in confronting communism. In 1965, Washington intervened during an uprising to restore Bosch to power through generals loyal to it, but failed and subsequently occupied the country with more than 40,000 troops. Elections were held the following year, resulting in a victory for pro-Washington figures. Secret documents later revealed in 1980 indicated that those elections were not fair.

The U.S. Occupation of Grenada and Chile
In 1983, Washington occupied the island of Grenada out of fear that Soviet influence might extend there. The United States opposed the rise to power of socialist leader Maurice Bishop, who had taken control of the island through a non-violent coup in 1979. As a result of the occupation, Bishop was executed by firing squad, and the island came under U.S. influence.

In 1973, the army and police in Chile overthrew the elected president, Salvador Allende, and installed General Augusto Pinochet. Under Pinochet’s rule, which lasted 27 years, 3,200 political figures disappeared under mysterious circumstances, and more than 30,000 others were arrested and tortured in prisons. In 2000, U.S. intelligence agencies released documents showing that they had prepared, in cooperation with the Chilean army, the ground for Pinochet’s coup.

Washington’s Support for Dictatorship in Mexico and Haiti
During the Mexican Revolution, Washington sent its forces to fight the revolutionaries in support of the dictatorship of General Porfirio Díaz, who ruled the country for more than 30 years. In 1913, the United States supported a bloody coup against President Francisco Madero to preserve its influence, leading to the appointment of General Victoriano Huerta as president.

In 1915, the U.S. Army occupied Haiti to protect Washington’s economic interests. During the occupation, thousands of people were killed, as the United States supported the dictator Jean Vilbrun Guillaume and a system likened to slavery. North American companies were also aided in confiscating thousands of dunams of land (one dunam equals 1,000 square meters). In 1934, Washington withdrew from Haiti, leaving behind an army loyal to it. Sixty years later, it reoccupied the country under the claim of “protecting democracy,” following the overthrow of Jean-Bertrand Aristide through a coup. This intervention concluded with the departure of General Raoul Cédras, who had orchestrated the coup, while U.S. troops and other United Nations personnel remained in the country.

Conclusion
Tracing the historical trajectory of the United States clearly shows that the aggressive behaviors shaping the present are neither accidental nor detached from their original roots. They are portrayed as a natural extension of a structure built on genocide, forced expansion, and the denial of people’s right to life and self-determination. Since the American state was built on the remains of millions of Indigenous victims, it has continued to expand globally under the same banners: the supremacy of force, the legitimacy of domination, and an alleged right to “moral hegemony.”

Bloody experiences stretching from Asia to Latin America, from the Middle East to Eastern Europe, demonstrate that Washington is the world’s greatest source of instability, employing intertwined tools of sanctions, coups, direct occupations, and proxy wars. All of this unfolds under a discourse that justifies power, erases the human conscience, and reproduces the logic of the “backyard” on a global scale.

Today, as the United States becomes entangled in open-ended conflicts and embarks on strategic adventures that drain its power and deepen its isolation, signs are said to be emerging of a transition from the phase of a “hegemonic state” to that of a “state digging the grave of its own influence.” Its insistence on imposing its will by force and its disregard for major shifts in the balance of power are driving it steadily toward a strategic suicide no less dangerous than the crimes that accompanied its rise.

Thus, American history—having begun with genocide and uprooting—now moves toward endings that resemble its beginnings: internal conflict, external confusion, and the erosion of an international standing that Washington can no longer salvage through force or rhetoric. The world is changing, people are rising, and the project of hegemony long sustained by blood and destruction is collapsing in the face of a new geopolitical reality that rejects submission and rewrites the rules of conflict and power.

It all started with the statistician and explorer Francis Galton (1822–1911) who was a cousin of Charles Darwin – EnglishHeritage report.

Used as a means of controlling “undesirable” populations – immigrants, people of color, poor people, unmarried mothers, the disabled, the mentally ill – federally-funded sterilization programs took place in 32 states throughout the 20th century.

Eugenics was a commonly accepted means of protecting society from the offspring (and therefore equally suspect) of those individuals deemed inferior or dangerous – the poor, the disabled, the mentally ill, criminals, and people of color.

After Puerto Rico was passed from the imperial power of Spain to the United States in 1898, the United States implemented laws and policies targeted at the control of the archipelago’s population. In 1937, neo-Malthusian and eugenic ideology facilitated an amendment to the Puerto Rican penal code, effectively legalizing abortion in the archipelago. This reform enabled the clinical pill trials of contraceptive technologies in the 1940s, to the detriment of working-class Puerto Ricans (Briggs 2003; Preciado 2013; Sánchez-Rivera 2020). Throughout the twentieth century, population control measures saw the forced and coerced sterilization of many Puerto Ricans as a eugenic practice – CULANTH report.
