#FATCA perspective from Russia: Tool for building Pax Americana

#FATCA AS A TOOL FOR BUILDING PAX AMERICANA http://t.co/5TUHtMlB4e

This article, which provides perspective on FATCA from Russia is a very interesting read.

FATCA: A new generation of American laws – Of particular interest is a characterization of FATCA that:

It belongs to a new generation of American laws , which can be called extraterritorial . These are the laws that apply to a number of other countries , and sometimes even the whole world . These are laws that help build Washington Pax Americana.

FATCA: A new role for the IRS – The IRS Commissioner will govern the world

We are witnessing a unique alignment of the global system, “head” which is the U.S. agency , and all financial and banking organizations formally sovereign states coming under the administrative control of this department .

I’m not sure whether FATCA is a tool for building a Pax Americana or a Lex Americana or both.

The article referenced in the tweet from FATCA_fallout is written in Russian by a Russian. I don’t understand Russian so I ran it through Google Translate. Assuming the accuracy of the translation, the article is revealing. I have bolded some of the more interesting parts.

Offshore Tax Havens – Hey Obama Delaware Must be First to Go

Includes:
“President Obama, given that Delaware is the United States of America’s “First State” we in the offshore services sector are positive that you will make it the “First Offshore Tax Haven” you destroy. Regardless of the trillions of dollars that will undoubtedly be divested from the U.S. markets and the economic consequences your actions will cause.”

Interesting article:
“HNW Cover Your Own ASSets:

High-Net-Worth Individuals must become more involved in protecting what is theirs and not depend on others to do it for them. If you believe that your government won’t confiscate a large portion of your wealth; then do nothing more than what you are doing now.”

Fideicomisos! A Private Letter Ruling for the Taxpayer

This post from this Texas lawyer is significant because it underscores that even if something is called a “trust” outside the U.S. it may not meet the definition of “trust” under U.S. law. If something is not a “trust” under U.S. law, it can’t be a “foreign trust” under U.S. law. See also this interesting Phil Hodgen post.

Do as I say! Not as I do!

It’s official. As we end 2013 and begin 2014 it’s clear that the administration of Barack Obama  has distinguished itself as becoming the most hypocritical joke in the world. For those seeking additional insight on this point, I recommend “Sangeeta Richard is proof of failed American reciprocity“. Although this article is written in the context of the recent U.S. arrest of an Indian diplomat in New York, the implications spread far and wide.

The fallout over the Indian consular officer,  Devyani Khobragade, whom the US Marshals humiliated through strip and cavity searching her despite her immunity (we learn now that it is full UN immunity!), has much greater interest for the Isaac Brock Society than perhaps we realize.  It demonstrates the US’s stance towards other nations as being one of, “Do as I say, not as I do.”  I.e., the US has become monstrous bully and hypocrite.   When citing diplomatic protocols in his defense of accused murderer Raymond Allen Davis (see video of Obama’s plea), President Obama emphasized the concept of reciprocity.  Yet now his administration violates the very principles that he iterated in that press conference by treating Devyani Khobragade with disrespect and by indicting her for Form Crime.

US persons are not competitive in the World Employment market!

Why U.S. persons are avoided like the plague.
