Introduction: The American Titanic

Under orders from its oligarchs and their politicians and spymasters, the Western media have either talked down BRICS or simply not reported on it at all. They prefer to talk of a Spanish football manager who kissed a Spanish sportswoman or a shady Russian businessman, murdered by Ukrainian terrorists who then tried to pin it on President Putin. And yet the BRICS Summit was a turning-point in world history, a historic moment which I never thought I would live to see, part of the ongoing birth of the real New World Order. The Great Western Game that began in Europe and ended in Washington is over.

It is momentous. The American Titanic has struck the Russian iceberg which it created for itself in the Ukraine through its backfiring cunning. And now the Titanic is going down, having hit the concept of International Justice and Prosperity, put forward by the Russian Federation. However much they rearrange the deckchairs in panic and whatever the tunes of fantasy played by the band of politicians and journalists on deck, it is going down. It is poetic justice. Did the West really think it could continue to get away with its exploitation of the Rest for another five centuries? Surely five centuries of injustice was enough?

The BRICS Alliance

BRICS is shorthand for Latin America-Eastern Europe-Asia-Africa, in other words the whole world except for the West. From 1 January 2024, under the Presidency of the Russian Federation, which has the largest economy in Europe, the Global BRICS or BRICS 11, already being called the BRICS Alliance, will consist of eleven countries: Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa and Argentina, Ethiopia, Iran, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Egypt. Its population will go from over 40% of the world’s population to over 46%. In his brilliant BRICS speech President Putin, the main ideologue of the Alliance, said that Western countries will not be able to join it, as long as they are hostile to it and have enacted illegal sanctions against various of its members.

In October 2024 the Sixteenth BRICS Alliance Summit will take place in Kazan in Eastern Russia under the chairmanship of President Putin who turns 72 on 7 October 2024. The fact that the Summit is planned for October suggests that the Russian government fully expects its Operation in the Ukraine to be over by then, at the very latest. The fact that this will be held in Kazan, with its mixed Christian-Muslim population, is also significant; Russia is looking East – not West. President Putin was born in westwards-looking Saint Petersburg, He has had enough after Western betrayal after Western betrayal. Now he looks eastwards.

Expansion in Kazan

Many expect that the BRICS Alliance will announce further expansion in Kazan. Many expect that the remaining 14 members, observer states and dialogue partners of the Shanghai Co-operation Organisation (SCO) will join. These are: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, Afghanistan, Belarus, Mongolia, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Cambodia, Nepal, Sri Lanka and Turkiye. The BRICS 25. However, many other countries are likely to join as well, in the near future, let alone in the more distant future.

At the very least these could include: Algeria, Venezuela, Bolivia, Thailand and Indonesia. The BRICS 30. If so, the G7, already overtaken by the BRICS 5, let alone the BRICS 11, will become irrelevant, just as the split G20 already is. The BRICS 30, well over half of the world, will control huge majorities of the world’s energy, commodities, resources and manufacturing and technology. Others will also want to join it, from Vietnam to the DCR Congo, from Serbia and Hungary. The BRICS 100 may soon be achieved: Latin America-Eastern Europe-Asia-Africa.

The Future of the North American World

It is clear that if this all takes place in the coming years, perhaps even next October, the whole post-1945 settlement, drawn up by the US, will become irrelevant. With it will fall the UN (in its present US-controlled New York form), the World Bank, the IMF, the ICC (the so-called ‘International’ Criminal Court) and the other US-run organisations which exercise feudal control over US vassals in Europe (NATO and the EU), not to mentions its Canadian colony, and its island, peninsula and coastal colonies: the UK, Australia, New Zealand, the Pacific Islands, Japan, South Korea and Israel. All of these will have to find a new future.

The USA, if it can survive intact, will have to sort their Unionism, with its criminal and indebted mess and head towards Confederationism, reconciling itself with the third country in North America – Mexico. Anglo-Spanish reconciliation must follow. For Oceania, hugely-indebted Japan and the still disunited Korean Peninsula, the solution is simple and local, not in the faraway colonial USA, but in China. This is in any case already taking over in the Western Pacific and mineral-rich Australia is already in fact dependent on China. As for artificial Israel, without Western backing, on which it has been fully dependent for three generations, it will at last be obliged to make peace with the Arab world.

The Future of Europe

There remains Europe, the EU-27, smaller in territory, and the Non-EU 18, much larger in territory: European Russia, the New Ukraine, Belarus, Georgia, Moldova, the UK, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Iceland, Andorra, Monaco, San Marino, Serbia and Kosovo, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Albania, (North) Macedonia and Montenegro. These are the 45 countries of ex-Catholic and ex-Protestant Western Europe and of largely Orthodox Eastern Europe and its Catholic and Muslim minorities.

We believe that once the long-overdue dissolution of the UK is completed, with the re-emergence of long-suppressed England, Scotland and Wales, the long-awaited reuniting of so-called Northern Ireland with Ireland after its unnatural division and also the re-emergence of long-suppressed Catalonia from unionist Spain, they could become the European 48. With the end of the disastrous, one-size-fits-all, jack-booted centralist Unionism of the EU, the UK and countries like Spain and France, and the autonomous regionalisation of areas like the Basque Country, Brittany and Corsica, the path will be clear towards the Resovereignisation, but also Confederalisation, of Europe.

Two European Confederations

This European 48 would have a great deal in common. Obviously, not enough to be a Union, as we can see from the EU catastrophe, but certainly enough to form two Confederations. The first could be that of the ex-Catholic/Protestant Western Europe of 33: Germany, France, Italy, England, Poland, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Sweden, Czechia, Portugal, Austria, Switzerland, Catalonia, Ireland, Denmark, Slovakia, Finland, Norway, Scotland, Croatia, Wales, Lithuania, Slovenia, Latvia, Estonia, Luxembourg, Malta, Iceland, Andorra, Liechtenstein, Monaco and San Marino.

The second Confederation would be that of the largely Orthodox Christian Eastern Europe of 15: Romania, Hungary, Greece, Serbia and Kosovo, Bulgaria, Georgia, Moldova, Albania, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Cyprus, Montenegro, Russia, with its large Muslim minority, the New Ukraine and Belarus. The orientation of this group, led by European and Asian Russian, would be Eurasian, towards the world’s manufacturing centre in China, linked to Europe by the New Silk Road. This will mean that this Eastern European Confederation will be the key to the routes to Asia for the Western European Confederation. Western Europe, ending at the Atlantic, will look towards and pass through Eastern Europe.

Conclusion: Red Square, Moscow, 9 May 2045

There were Soviet soldiers who witnessed the humiliating Nazi invasion of the USSR in 1941. They never expected to see victory in Berlin in 1945. There were US soldiers who entered triumphantly into Afghanistan in 2001. They never expected to flee routed in 2021. In December 2021, nobody expected to see the Russian Federation, humiliated by the USA for thirty years since December 1991 (‘a gas station with nukes’), become the only country in the world to stand up at last to the American bully and begin its liberation of the Ukraine two months later. Always be prepared for the unexpected. Will we then see the following? Start preparing for the unexpected:

The Centennial Victory Concert of the Western European Confederation of Nations, Red Square, Moscow, 9 May 2045, held in front of Tsar Nicholas III, successor to the late President Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin. It opens with the Choir of the Army of the Russian Tsardom singing ‘Katyusha’, followed by Scottish bagpipers playing Scotland the Brave, the Royal Norwegian Orchestra playing Solveig’s Song by Grieg, the pipes and dancers of the Bagad of Brittany, the Emperor Waltz played by the Orchestra of Vienna, Nessun Dorma sung by the Opera of Milan, ‘Fado Portugues’ played by the Orchestra of Lisbon, Trenet’s ‘La Mer’ played by the Orchestra of Paris, Alford’s Standard of St George played by the Royal Marines, the Moonlight Sonata of Beethoven played by the Orchestra of Berlin, ending with the Russian National Anthem, ‘O God, Keep the Tsar Strong and Mighty’.
