New US military strategy published by the Pentagon at the end of June, says that Washington will not feel safe until then, as long as there are countries which are not dependent on North American politics, it is because of this Russia is the main threat to the hegemony of the United States, the American political scientist Paul Craig Roberts.

"The document States moves the focus From terrorists to "state actors" who " defy international norms ". It is important to understand what These words mean. Governments that defy international norms of sovereign countries that pursue policies that are not dependent on policy of the US capital. These " revisionist countries are a threat not because they intend to attack the U.S., and the U.S. Department of defense acknowledges that neither Russia nor China are going to attack, but because they are independent. In other words, the international norm is dependent on the capital of the United States, " writes Roberts in his article.

From the perspective of a political scientist, independent countries at odds With the provisions of the neoconservative doctrine of a unipolar world, which declares the existence of the independence and rights only in the capital of the USA.

Because of this, in the list of "revisionist countries," continues Roberts, included countries such as Russia, China, North Korea and Iran.

In this case the analyst is affected by the hypocrisy of the Pentagon report.

"in Russia is under fire from opponents for non-conformity of its actions to the norms of international law, which means that the Russian Federation does not follow the instructions of the capital of the United States. In other words, this report is written by the neocons in order to ignite a war With Russia ", - emphasized Mr. Roberts.

in conclusion, Roberts compares the view of the capital of the USA in the Russian Federation with a look at the Carthage of Cato the Elder, that every speech in the Roman Senate was completed with the words " Carthage must be destroyed ".

in addition, Roberts emphasizes that North America does not have the opportunity to feel safe, until they will not turn every country in the world in their own vassals, " which have become all European countries, Canada, Australia, Ukraine and Japan.
