Explore how U.S. foreign policy sustains conflict zones to fuel military sales, control regimes, and uphold the dollar’s global dominance. A gripping analysis.
Global | Category: Geopolitics | Strategic Affairs | Military Economy
In a world driven by headlines, there’s a silent system of control operating beneath the surface—one that thrives not on peace, but on carefully managed instability. While the U.S. claims to be a global peacemaker, its foreign policy suggests otherwise. It’s not about eliminating threats. It’s about keeping them alive—just dangerous enough.
Let’s break it down, country by country. Each serves a unique purpose in maintaining this global equilibrium of fear.
🔍 Strategic Roleplayers in the American Gameboard
- Iran:
Contrary to popular belief, the U.S. doesn’t want to eliminate Iran. It needs Iran. Iran antagonises Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, Qatar, and the UAE—nations that, in fear, buy billions in U.S. weapons. Ayatollah Ali Khamenei isn’t a threat to be removed—he’s a tool of managed chaos. He is the insurance policy that keeps Gulf nations under Washington’s thumb. - Putin’s Russia:
A looming presence that rattles Europe. Russia justifies the expansion of NATO and the arming of Eastern Europe, from Poland to the Baltic. Putin’s aggression is profitable. - North Korea (Kim Jong-un):
The permanent boogeyman that keeps South Korea and Japan dependent on U.S. defence infrastructure. Every missile test? A marketing campaign for Patriot Systems. - Pakistan:
A wild card bordering India, Iran, and Central Asia, Pakistan is a geopolitical lever. It allows the U.S. to maintain pressure on multiple regions with minimal involvement. - Ukraine:
The frontline pawn used to provoke Russia and justify Western unity. Billions in arms flow into Ukraine, stimulating U.S. defence contractors, while sanctions isolate Moscow. - Turkey:
A NATO member with an unpredictable edge. It’s pivotal for the containment of Russia, disputes with Greece, Armenia, and Syria, and Black Sea access control. - China:
The long game. The U.S. doesn’t want war, but it needs the China threat to stay visible—especially for Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam, the Philippines, and yes, even India. - Afghanistan:
Still central for watching Iran, Pakistan, and Central Asia. Its instability remains useful for covert ops and drone operations. - Bangladesh:
A rising concern. It offers a staging point for pressure on India, blockade routes against China, and interference in Myanmar’s affairs.
Arms, Airbases & the Almighty Dollar
These calculated instabilities have created a global web of over 800 U.S. military bases. Nations afraid of collapse open their lands to American airbases, radar stations, and drone hubs—all paid for in U.S. dollars.
Why?
Because in this system:
- The U.S. prints a $100 bill for 17 cents.
- Then sells arms worth $110B to Saudi Arabia, $23B to the UAE, and $12B to Qatar.
- The petrodollars earned flow back into the U.S. as Treasury bonds, subsidising America’s economy.
It’s not foreign policy. It’s a business model.
Not diplomacy, but supply chain management of fear.
Regime Changes & Controlled Chaos
To maintain this system, the U.S. doesn’t hesitate to:
- Enable civil wars,
- Stage political assassinations,
- Spark terror attacks,
- Fund regime changes.
It’s not about ideology. It’s about asset control. Oil, minerals, land, and air routes. If a regime threatens the petrodollar or questions American supremacy, it becomes the next target.
The Iran Illusion: A Villain That Must Never Die
You think America will help Israel “finish Iran”? Think again.
When Israel pushes too far, the U.S. pulls the leash. Ali Khamenei isn’t the target. He’s the license to operate.
The goal? Keep Iran:
- Angry enough to scare its neighbors.
- Powerful enough to keep Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthis on edge.
- Weak enough to never actually win.
Peace, you see, kills profits.
A/B Testing of Wars: The Profit Behind the Pain
Each conflict is a live test—what creates more regional arms sales? What narrative works? What regime yields more investment?
This isn’t foreign policy—it’s a product lifecycle strategy.
- War = Demand
- Fear = Supply
- Death = Business
What the News Won’t Say
You won’t hear this on CNN or read it in Reuters. But watch closely.
Every time a region starts to stabilize, new fires get lit.
Every time a conflict ends, diplomacy is sabotaged.
Because if peace wins, the dollar loses.
So ask yourself:
- How many soldiers died for someone else’s quarterly report?
- How many countries are kept unstable to keep the dollar strong?
- How many dictators survive because they’re… useful?
