  Was Russia’s intervention in the United States a reality or was it a myth? The reality before the world is that freedom and the democratic system are intact in the United States, if anyone wants to see an intervention, look at Hong Kong, look at Iran, look at Lebanon, look at Syria, look at Libya, look at Yemen, look at Iraq, and this is called intervention. Whenever and wherever the United States has intervened, it has done so in the interest of its own foreign policy, and people face the serious consequences of this intervention. Now Hong Kong has had a Freedom and Democratic system for 25 years under one country and two systems, and this system has been working very successfully. This system maintained the economic and political status quo in Hong Kong. The United States interfered with Hong Kong for its foreign policy and political purposes. Though Hong Kong’s business community has been urging  Beijing to crack down on vandals and looters, spreading the lawlessness of these miscreants costs Hong Kong billions of dollars. The miscreants were seeking the help of the United States for Freedom and Democracy and were appealing to the United States to act against China. The United States was just exploiting Hong Kong’s domestic politics in the interests of its foreign policy. The US backing of anarchists made China’s attitude towards Hong Kong even tougher, seeing the growing US interference in China’s internal affairs, the Chinese government enacted the Patriot Act in Hong Kong in the face of national security threats. As a result of this irresponsible US policy, under the one-country, two-system freedom in Hong Kong also came to an end. In one country, two systems, the people of Hong Kong had the freedom not to live in fear.

  In Iran, the people try to bring about political change through a political process, but even here, US intervention thwarts their efforts. Israel and its lobby are behind the intervention. In Iran, on the other hand, there is a political tug-of-war between moderate and ultra-right religious groups. The United States has always considered it a political act to support rioters in Iranian cities for freedom in Iran. This attitude of the United States weakens the moderates, in Iran’s cities, rioters are crushed, and the ultra-religious become stronger. The US policy in the world has hurt the US, in some places the United States destroys the status quo, in some places the United States supports the status quo, and in between there is loud talk of freedom and democracy.

  In 1997, Mohammed Khatami was the moderate president, he made some economic and political reforms in Iran. President Clinton sought to restore relations with Iran. Secretary Madeleine Albright apologized to Iran for plotting to overthrow Dr. Mossadegh’s democratic government in the 1950s. Secretary Madeleine Albright also visited Tehran, but the diplomatic process to restore US-Iranian relations become a tragedy for US domestic and Israeli lobby’s politics. President Mohammed Khatami had failed to promote moderate-liberal policies. Hardline ideologue Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was elected president. The United States and Israel have intensified their propaganda campaign against Iran, both of which have become prisoners of this policy. The United States was not liberating Israel from an antagonistic attitude toward Iran, nor was Israel allowing the United States to get out of it. The United States and Israel were under the illusion that the Iranian people would take to the streets against the mullahs. The Western media will give special coverage to their agitation, and the mullah system in Iran will end. Cold War days are gone with the winds. The US-Israel Cold War mentality of changing governments through street riots will never succeed. The Iranian people will not go to the past to change the government undemocratic way, and now they have the examples of Iraq, Syria, Libya, and they do not want to see Iran on the list. However, the United States and Israel continued to incite Iranians to revolt against the government. The Iranian people want to see political change in the current system. Therefore, in every election, the people try to elect moderate candidates. But the problem is that the US’s pro-Israel Iran policy protects the ultra-conservatives from being weakened in Iran and moderate are lost the elections. If the United States had continued to implement the nuclear deal with Iran, and economic activities in Iran were promoted under this agreement, modernism would have been popular in Iran and the path to political change would have been paved. But the United States uses Warmonger’s brain and talks about the political solution. The result is that the United States is defeated on both war and political fronts.

  Who destroyed Iraq, Syria, and Libya? They were the most liberal, progressive, and secular country. They were highly educated and talented societies. They were religiously socialized. Muslims and Christians have lived here peacefully for centuries. The government gave everyone equal economic rights. There was no discrimination between Muslims and Christians. Will the United States and Europe explain why these countries have been destroyed?

  Lebanon was the only place in the Middle East where there was freedom and democracy. Christians, Sunnis, Shiites ruled together. The Lebanese constitution recognized equal rights for all. Hezbollah was popular with the Lebanese people because it liberated southern Lebanon from Israel and was a front-line militia in Lebanon’s defense against Israeli aggression. Besides, Hezbollah had no role against anyone in the region. Hezbollah had a positive role in Lebanon’s politics. Lebanon had political and economic stability for almost two decades. But US-Israel intervention in Lebanon also increased, at Israel’s request, the United States declared Hezbollah a terrorist organization. Which led to chaos in Lebanese politics.

  Europe, the United States and NATO were united against Russia, NATO had cordoned off the area around Russia, Russia was threatened with stockpiling nuclear weapons on its borders. Weapons were being sold to Ukraine. Russia has also had to abandon freedom and take security measures for its own country. In China, along with economic development, political development was also taking shape. Social media was gaining popularity among China’s younger generation. Mobile phone use was spreading rapidly. In China, the president’s term was set at two terms. China was moving in the right direction in terms of economic development and political reform. After the arrival of Russian troops in Syria, US military activity in the Middle East was reduced, but US military activity in the South China Sea had expanded. Military exercises were being held with China’s neighbors. India had locked up freedom and democracy in its country and joined the US in military exercises near China. The trade war against China had begun, because of the growing hostility of the United States against China, the Chinese government postponed political reforms, impose some restrictions on social media. the term of the President has been extended indefinitely. It was a setback to freedom and democracy.
