Throughout the decades of the Cold War, whilst the blocs were competing, two major attractions worked powerfully to the advantage of the West. Firstly, the comfort and prosperity that it was able to provide to its citizens, which its Eastern rivals could hardly match. The second feature that in the eyes of the world gave the West a huge competitive edge was the comparatively better performance of its institutions in securing individual liberties.
The twin advantages of prosperity and the impression that the West valued freedom neutralised successfully most of the theoretical critique of the capitalist social and economic model. The West’s ostensible commitment to personal liberties acted as a powerful magnet. As a political weapon it thus served its purpose effectively. So long as scrupulous adherence to the rule of law and respect for individual rights were seen as their distinguishing characteristic, Western societies were perceived as a desirable alternative to the competing systems, which often disregarded strict legality and did little to reduce arbitrariness.

That state of affairs prevailed until roughly the 1990s, when the Western bloc reached the pinnacle of its global might and was widely perceived as triumphant over its adversaries. Since then throughout the Western world the social gains which brought a modicum of comfort and safety to the common people are being systematically dismantled. The sense of legal security that for decades was enjoyed by citizens of Western societies proved equally evanescent. Lawless abuse and vulnerability to the powers that be, phenomena normal elsewhere but long absent from the practice of Western societies and largely faded from the memory of their citizens, are reappearing with a vengeance. On both the domestic and international levels, the “rule of law” has rapidly morphed into its unrecognisable caricature. That metamorphosis has became jokingly known as the “rules based order.”
With scant internal opposition or even public awareness, the core countries of the collective West became infected with the contagion of arbitrariness in the interpretation of inherent human rights and application of legal principles erected to protect them. The transformation, which in historical terms took place with lightning speed, has been spearheaded by a ruthless and duplicitous political cabal which directs the flow of events from behind the scenes. It was implemented with the connivance of a judiciary that is utterly corrupt and cowardly in the fulfilment of its professional duties.
Breakdown of legality is generally a precursor of worse things to come, which almost invariably takes the form of increasingly egregious abuse of power. That can be illustrated with disturbing but by no means isolated examples of the emerging state of affairs in the countries of the collective West that used to be envied for their freedom. Readers will recall the famous line, “they hate us for our freedom.” That false assertion made in 2001, whilst doing nothing to advance the cause of freedom, introduced an orgy of destruction and mass slaughter.
A striking representation of the breakdown of the legal order is the illegal kidnapping and incarceration in Germany on fabricated embezzlement charges of German-American lawyer, Dr. Reiner Fuellmich. The German judicial system is fully complicit in this appalling travesty. There are many solid reasons for the deep state cabal’s virulent hatred of Dr. Fuellmich. He was the spoiler who in 2020 had the temerity to found the Covid pandemic research committee, just as the social control experiment was gaining momentum. The committee did outstanding work under the leadership of Dr. Fuellmich to expose the sordid motives and homicidal objectives of the orchestrators of the bogus medical emergency. That was a major blow to them, the more so because it was delivered successfully under conditions of nearly total informational blockade. Dr. Fuellmich’s ultimate, and perhaps overambitious, naively conceived goal of a medical Nurenberg to bring the culprits to justice unfortunately could not be achieved. But the very thought of it must have given rage to those he intended to be prosecuted.
“This agenda has been long planned,” Dr. Fuellmich summarised his Committee’s findings. “It’s ultimately unsuccessful precursor was the swine flu some 12 years ago, and it is cooked up by a group of super-rich psychopathic and sociopathic people who hate and fear people at the same time, have no empathy, and are driven by the desire to gain full control over all of us, the people of the world.”
The time came however for the psychopaths to get their sweet revenge, and the operation was not exceedingly difficult because they happen to control the mechanisms of power. Eleven months ago Dr. Fuellmich was imprisoned in Germany on the false allegation made by a former colleague, who may have been infiltrated by security agencies into the Covid Committee, that he misused the organisation’s assets for personal benefit. A charge that under German law is a misdemeanour and for which there is no precedent of lengthy pre-trial incarceration resulted in imprisonment that has now lasted for over 400 days, under Abu Ghraib conditions, except that it is in Germany and not in Iraq. For a shocking portrayal of those detention conditions, see here. And see here for the disgraceful procedural deficiencies of the trial itself, which currently is in progress. The proceedings are stained by practices incompatible with the image of Rechtsstaat that is misleadingly cultivated by Germany, along with the rest of the collective West regimes associated with it.
