British researcher: Trump is out of his mind.
The British photographer, writer, and researcher made important remarks during an interview. When asked about his views on the U.S. military operation in Venezuela, he responded, “What can be said about Venezuela? It’s a worn-out American empire with a runaway economy, wars that have spiraled out of control, and chaos that it created, now coming back to haunt it. The dollar, according to him, is going out of fashion.”
He compared the current situation in the United States to a “banana republic” that “has no bananas,” governed by “a petty, childish dictator named Donald Trump,” who he asserted “has no brain.” The term “banana republic” dates back to the early 20th century, referring to Central and South American countries whose economies depended on banana exports and were subject to coups and foreign influence. In political discourse, this term generally refers to unstable governments and weak institutions. By applying the term “banana republic” to the United States, Professor Bershit suggests that a great power is descending into a chaotic and populist state. The phrase “banana-less” further undermines the notion that a single-product economy does not exist in the U.S., highlighting instead the chaos and authoritarian behaviors that are present.
Bershit then expressed his views in sharp language: “They have gone from a powerful and ruthless world power to a declining country that is now akin to the pirates of the Caribbean, working alongside the genocidal pirates of the Mediterranean (the Israeli regime), harming everyone around them, creating more chaos every day, and plundering whoever they choose.”
The British documentary maker continued to express hope that the BRICS nations would stand up “more openly and principled” against this “criminal entity” and prevent the implementation of Trump’s so-called peace plan, which would hand Gaza over to Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “China and Russia should have stopped this from the beginning,” he stated. He warned that, in the current situation, the U.S. and Israel would continue to damage their surroundings and bring the threat of nuclear war closer.
In an emotional statement, Bershit remarked, “Sometimes I feel so negative about humanity that I think maybe the disappearance of the Earth would not be so bad. But seriously, we are witnessing the complete collapse of all systems—from the United Nations and other international cooperation organizations to the international legal framework and trade ties. Most importantly, the destruction of climate change measures by the United States is something that, even without nuclear war, will make life on Earth extremely terrifying.” According to Bershit, the U.S. actions that plunder and destroy Venezuela are a continuation of its previous destructive paths in Libya, Iraq, Lebanon, Yemen, Palestine, Syria, Sudan, and Somalia.
