There have been many mistakes and lapses by US President Joe Biden during his speeches or statements recently, which raises controversy regarding the president’s state of mind (Anatolia)

There are many slips of the tongue of US President Joe Biden, the leader of the “most powerful and influential country” in the world...the partner and greatest supporter of Israel in the genocidal war it is waging against the proud and steadfast Gaza Strip.

These “missteps” reflect political confusion, psychological confusion, and exposure of the subconscious mind, and perhaps indicate a kind of madness and dementia (poor mental performance). As a result of Biden's advanced age (81 years), especially since his behavior and his administration in the Middle East have revealed stupidity and foolishness since the "Al-Aqsa Flood" operation.

This is because the American President, with his blind support - morally, materially and militarily - for Israel, has opened the gates of hell on military bases and American interests in the Arab region, and created a massive wave of hostility towards “America” in the popular - not official - Arab and Islamic circles.

Not expanding the war or singling out the Palestinians?

Here is Biden sliding his country, along with Britain - the obedient follower of America - into an aggressive war against Yemen. In defense of Israeli commercial interests, which threatens to complicate navigation in the Red Sea, and ignite the entire region, in contradiction with the declared “American goal” of not expanding the scope of the war, while the real goal is to enable the Zionist entity to monopolize the “Palestinian people” in the Gaza Strip, to annihilate them. , displacing survivors of the massacres, and preventing any other parties from supporting it. It is American foolishness, which is manifested and embodied in a president whose tongue is loose and often slips.

Biden and Modi

A return to the slips and lapses of “Biden’s tongue”... the most recent of which was last (Sunday), in front of a large audience in the American city of Chicago, when he was speaking, recalling a dialogue in a meeting he had, in 2021, in Britain, with the French President, “Francois Mitterrand”...meaning The current French President Emmanuel Macron, not President Mitterrand, who died in 1996.

"Biden" has previously fallen into lapses and missteps that are difficult to enumerate. He ended one of his speeches several months ago by saying: "God save the Queen," with which the speeches of officials in the United Kingdom (Britain + Northern Ireland) conclude.

China occupies a part of Biden's lapses. During one of his visits to Canada (last year), he greeted China instead of Canada, in his speech before the Canadian Parliament. As was the case in his speech during a campaign to raise money for his election campaign last June... when he criticized the biography of his friend Narendra Modi (the Indian Prime Minister), that he was the Prime Minister of a country that was small... and is now the largest country in the world... “China.” ...before he realized a little later that it was India.

Demonizing Putin and Hamas

Russia and its President Putin are also an obsession for Biden. Hours after his blunder against Indian Prime Minister Modi, in response to a journalist’s question about the rebellion of the Russian irregular military group Wagner led by Yevgeny Prigozhin, he said: “It is clear that Putin is losing the war in “Iraq”...while he meant Ukraine.

Last October (after the Al-Aqsa flood), Biden spoke about what he called (smart investment in Ukraine and Israel), describing Putin as a tyrant and similar to Hamas (considering that Hamas is a devil)... which sparked harsh Russian criticism, as it is considered funding wars. It's a smart investment.

This is in addition to Biden - perhaps due to his shaky state of mind - employing the promotion of lies about Hamas beheading children and raping Israeli women, and repeating these lies in his own words, despite their denial by the White House.

Secrets of the subconscious mind

What is behind lapses and slips of the tongue... and what do these lapses indicate? The issue of slips of the tongue and lapses of the pen occupied me; The founder of the school of psychoanalysis is the Austrian Jewish scientist Sigmund Freud (1856-1939 AD)... According to his studies, there is a dark side in the psyche, which he called the “unconscious” or the subconscious, and that this side has a strong influence on human behavior, and may be the reason for... Some psychological disorders that affect a person.

Lapses of the tongue, slips of the pen, and forgetting appointments are a field or stage for the subconscious mind to express its hidden and repressed secrets. According to Freud, these lapses of the pen or tongue involve a person without his will or intention, changing the intended meaning of the words, causing a lot of embarrassment, similar to Biden's lapses.

When a person finds himself wishing that he had not fallen into this lapse... An example of this is when a person writes to his friend saying: Thank God for the curse you are in (instead of a blessing)... Also, someone forgetting an appointment with another, is often a hidden desire on the part of the former to flee or escape from this meeting.

Hidden hatred

Freud attributes most of these missteps to; To subconscious or semi-conscious motives, negative or positive, that the person who made the lapse does not realize, nor is he aware of their existence...but they are related to the lapse and may be repressed love, jealousy, subconscious hatred, or the like.

A sign of this in Biden's case is Biden's repeated slips of the tongue about China and Russia, including his slip of the tongue in February of last year - while he was in the Polish capital, Warsaw - that "Putin cannot remain in power," which prompted Macron to... "To warn that such statements are dangerous, confusing, and lead to escalation of the conflict.

In addition to Freud's interpretation of "slips of the tongue" - and in continuation of it - from a modern medical point of view, "lapses", such as what escapes Biden's tongue, indicate mental deterioration or Alzheimer's - albeit limited -, where the person disappears absently for a period of time. , or another place, or both for a few moments, then slips of the tongue occur, before he returns to consciousness.

This means that the universe is in great danger... when someone like Biden is at the head of the superpower of our time.

We ask God for safety.
