*'''[[Trump]]'s [[war]] overreach''' may be the straw that breaks the back of [[the West]]'s [[financial]]ised architecture. [https://forumgeopolitica.com/article/trumps-war-overreach-may-be-the-straw-that-breaks-the-back-of-the-wests-financialised-architecture]

{{quotebox-float|The recent [[violent]] unrest in [[Paris]] is linked to those 2024 [[French]] [[election]] results — The election engineered a fractured, deadlocked [[parliament]] that [[Macron]] hoped to manipulate. This fuelled deepening [[public]] anger at the [[European]] [[Elitism|Ruling élite's]] refusal to accept accountability for the mistakes that had led to the wider European [[economic]] [[crisis]].

Key aspects of [[France]]’s [[crisis]] — out-of-control [[immigration]], failing public services and growing [[cost of living]] pressures — are common to virtually all major [[liberal economies]]. In short, though the economic problems associated with [[western]] [[state]]s may appear to each have their unique [[nation]]al characteristics, they all have deeper roots that lie with the [[financial]]ised [[western]] response to the [[Great Financial Crisis of 2008]].

The point now is that these contradictions and tensions are reaching their zenith through the related interlinked conflicts in [[Ukraine]], [[Iran]] and [[Yemen]]-[[Saudi]] that now risk taking the [[economic]] [[crisis]] to an altogether different level of [[financial]] [[crisis]] — one that could end in systemic breakdown.

Pushing the crisis to climax arises from the pursuit of two contradictory objectives at the same time — firstly, the maintenance of a [[cost]]ly [[welfare state]]s, whilst secondly indulging in [[war]]s intended to maintain the [[western]] place, per [[Marco Rubio]], at the "head of the world". It is these wars that - predictably enough - have caused the soaring [[costs of living]] that are breaking the [[budget]] of most [[liberal economic state]]s. }}
