Here is Russia's Walter Cronkite, their #1 newsman, explaining to Russians about America.

Sorry to have to say this America, but he is right.

We would, however, correct his argument to say that US elites cause war, sorrow, and suffering around the world, not Americans in general, who are a decent and good people.

They are as much a victim of their own government as the people dying in wars started and maintained by those same elites.

Particularly guilty are the media, because they are in the business of selling this horror show to the unsuspecting public.

Take a few minutes and listen to what this man has to say.

He says it well, and he hits the nail on the head, as painful as it might be to admit it.

Time for a change of leadership, America.

(Full transcript follows below with key points in bold.)

Isn't this how how the US acts all over the world though?

They destroy countries, cause civil wars, bring sorrow and poverty to entire nations. Just like that.

They seem to not even notice the consequences of their actions.

They blame others for everything, and then gloat about being sinless.

With this simple, carefree mentality, they can allow themselves everything.

America fines European banks and companies, to punish them for defying America.

They impose unilateral sanctions in Europe against those who want to buy cheaper Russian gas, instead of the more expensive American gas.

They tap phones and read emails of billions of people on the planet, including the leaders of US allied countries.

They arrest foreign citizens all over the world and throw them in secret jails outside of the US. Outside of the US of course, so that they can torture them, without fear of breaking any of their own laws.

They plan and execute coup d'etats and color revolutions. They usually time them with the elections in the victim country.

They de facto continue to militarily occupy Germany and Japan. The US has a huge number of military bases in these countries. A base, by the way, is a foreign military force. It directly limits the sovereignty and the ability of the occupied country to act in their own national interests.

They start and execute military operations without sanctions from the UN.

They falsely justify their own actions and act on false pretenses. For cover, they gather fake coalitions.

And all of this is done with that simple American air of naivete.

That same mindset allows them to be allied with what is left of Islamic State in Deir-ez-Zor.

With the same simple-mindedness, Trump threatened to destroy an entire country at the UN General Assembly.

The Americans have already announced that they are pulling out of the the nuclear agreement with Iran. Without any justifiable reasons, in spite of everything and everyone. Just like that.

When Donald Trump became President, he received the people's mandate to build a rational relationship with Russia, and to implement a more rational policy in the world.

He wasn't supposed to overthrow foreign governments. Right now, Trump acts in direct opposition to his voters' expectations.

Is there, at least, one problem in the world which the US has helped solve this year? - No.

What’s worse, he made North Korea even more dangerous and non-complying.

South Korea and Japan are in clear danger now.

He has deployed more troops to Afghanistan, but we don't know what he is trying to accomplish there either.

In Syria, the US has lost its strategic goals and started to directly oppose Russia and the anti-terrorist forces.

He is on bad terms with Turkey, he has scared off Europe, and nothing good is happening in South America, either.

Tensions between the US and China are growing. Relations with Russia are at an all-time low.

It's bad enough that the US took over Russian diplomatic residencies, but they are also tearing through them like nobody's business. How else one would label the actions of those agents in our Consulate in San Francisco?

Does it mean that Russia must respond in a mutual manner? Perhaps as simple-mindedly as the US does?

If Russia did, it would ruin the very concept of diplomacy. What would be next? Or does Washington prefer not to think about that? Or do they?

The less diplomacy there is, the less politeness and nice words, the higher the demand for US weapons. That's much better.

It's not like diplomacy is very lucrative. It’s about airing concerns, which leads to...unneeded restrictions. Taking the high road is difficult, and the low road is always there. It is coarser, but it does have elements of cheap theatricality.

Take for example what Trump did when he went to Puerto Rico after the hurricane.

For appearances sake, he brought his wife along. She wasn't wearing her usual high heels, but specially bought yellow Timberlands.

He made the local Americans happy, personally throwing paper towels into the crowd.

It looked like one big ridiculous show.

And it all took place on a day of nationwide mourning in honor of the mass shooting in Las Vegas.
