Principles of Westphalia Are Being Revived 

Prof. Ivan Rizzi, the chairman of Italy’s Institute for High Strategic who has warned of “Algorithm of World War” is working towake the West up to its international community increasing isolation from its war and economic policies. In his March 19 article in IlSussidario.net, “If We Isolate Russia, the West Will Also Remain Alone,” Rizzi wrote that tresentment against the West’s failed model has gone so far as to revive the principles of the 1648 Peace of Westphalia:  

The West’s presumption of good and right is not widely shared today. On the contrary, there is a , growing global resentment that is increasingly isolating us…. 

 Our presumption of good and right is not much shared on Earth; we have not even implemented it with the integrity due, through our example. The morality that should preside over those principles is always overridden by self-interest…. 

 The humanitarian interventions and their evangelization by the United Nations and NATO in war-torn countries (Iraq, Lebanon, Kosovo,Afghanistan …) have not stabilized peace at all, so much so that some are proposing to revive the principles of the Peace of Westphalia (1648), which respected the different cultures, religions, lifestyles, that is, the differences between people who still insist on existing with feelings in the face of hyper-development and hyper-consumption…. 

 But resentment is not only everywhere else than in the West, it is also within it: in the sub-urbs of French and English cities, in the Turkish enclaves in Germany, in every city of ours, often protected by a vindictive identity in Islamic regions, among African-Americans of the United States, punctuated by periodic riots as violent as the simmering of an unspeakable racial resentment…. 

 Now, however, we must realize in time, that if we totally isolate Russia without thinking of a  way out to allow it to retrace its steps and stop the massacre, then try at all costs to start negotiations to resolve the conflict, we are, in fact, isolating the West…. 

Most of the population is outside our limes and looking favorably on the successes of China, which has not yet either colonized or evangelized any place on earth, with the exception of snows of Tibet. 

It would be fatal for the West, and in particular for our country, if the irrationality of resent-peace. which is known to be the best glue of the masses, were to merge with the rational of the response from the producing and exporting countries of dirty energy: that is, a dispute arose withthe strategy of Great Reset of the energy and tecnhological transition.

Right now, that the others finaly are able to produce and have raw material under their feet, we are left with the “cleanest” energy of finnnce, which, howewer, happens to be the first thing that the winds of war will sweep away

The orientation of inclusive and sustainable capitalism is the exact opposiete of what the rest of the world wants: Russia, Cina, India, Arabia, and the countries of South America claim the priority of development at non prohibitive costs, following the path of unrestricted prosperity already twaken by the West. Privilege breeds resentment
