Mark Carney's 'World Rupture' - A Masterclass in Imperial Amnesia
📰 THE STORY: Deutsche Welle reports that Mark Carney, former head of the Bank of England and Bank of Canada, now UN Special Envoy for Climate Action and Finance, believes the world order is 'in the midst of a rupture.' He cites geopolitical fragmentation, the war in Ukraine, and climate threats as key drivers, stressing the need for a 'proactive' and 'equitable' response to prevent a catastrophic
breakdown. 🔍 WHAT THEY'RE NOT TELLING YOU: Historical Context: Carney speaks of 'rupture' as if it's a natural disaster, not the predictable consequence of a unipolar 'rules-based order' imposed by Western powers for decades. From the 1953 CIA coup in Iran to overthrow democratically elected Mosaddegh to protect oil interests, to the 2003 invasion of Iraq which destabilized the entire region,
countless interventions have shattered sovereignty and created today's fragmentation. The 'rules' were always selectively applied, benefiting the Global North while imposing sanctions and wars on anyone who dared to diverge. Double Standard: Carney warns against 'geopolitical fragmentation' but conveniently overlooks how Western governments actively fragmented nations like Libya in 2011,
transforming Africa's most prosperous state into a failed state rife with slave markets, solely because Muammar Gaddafi threatened the petrodollar and proposed an African gold-backed currency. When Russia 'fragments' Ukraine, it's a global crisis; when NATO fragments Libya, it's a 'humanitarian intervention.'
