A conversation about Ukraine.
(Someone may be interested?)
A comedy of errors?
Since our conversation, my blog has gone onto 'snail speed'. Coincidence?
The covert bio-weapons angle
ASB News / MILITARY〽️@ASBMilitaryBREAKING: Russia publishes documents which show Ukraine was working on biological weapons near russian borders — such as Anthrax and Plague & that the pentagon has instructed to destroy them — violating article 1 UN prohibition of biological weapons. — These are US funded labs. https://twitter.com/ASBMilitary/status/1500499205663645700?s=20&t=GxUCXnUDKOZf3jWP0K_knQ

Good point.

I think they may have underestimated the Ukrainian resistance though. Ukraine has been secretly supplied with western weapons for years. We have had SAS and other troops there as advisors as well.

Yea crazy. They were prosecuting mercenaries and denying their nationality only a few months ago. Amazingly Israel has issued the same suggestion.

I'm talking about a planned calculated process by the West from the CIA inspired coup d'tat in 2014. As I said at the time, the Ukraine can only be viewed as part of the general pattern of nation destabilisation from 9/11 onwards. Afghanistan; Iraq; Libya; Horn of Africa; UAE; Syria; Iran. Russia and China are in the cross hairs.

Of course one of the effects was to encourage Putin to invade Ukraine. Could that have been the devious underlying reason?

I'm not deluded at all. You are naive if you think these things are not war-gamed using the most sophisticated computer programmes in dedicated departments years in advance. Don't you think they war-gamed Afghanistan? Don't you think they war gamed Ukraine? There has been an established American military line of thinking that a nuclear war against Russia is winnable. Perhaps you should accuse these centres of power as 'deluded'?

"Freedom" and "human rights" that are wheeled out for public consumption are NEVER the real reasons for war. None of the countries are concerned about people. They are concerned about resources, power and influence.

It is generally accepted that the chaotic American exit from Afghanistan, emboldened Putin to invade Ukraine, on the basis that they would not be opposed. Seems he made a big mistake there, although the opposition is proxy. Just seen Ukrainian fascist bragging they have more American Javelines than any other country.

When will the media tell us that the tank that ran the old Ukrainian man over in his car was actually a Ukrainian tank ?
Apparently the main stream media warns us about fake news and Facebook normally removes it and bans people ?
Where were the dedicated Facebook fact checkers this time ?

Last month, Uncommon Knowledge with Peter Robinson asked Princeton Professor and Hoover Institution Senior Fellow Stephen Kotkin 5 questions, all in the foreign policy and history realm. Since then, the world has changed in ways that were unimaginable just 3 weeks ago. So we asked Professor Kotkin to come back for a second round of questions, this time all dedicated to one topic: the Russian invasion of Ukraine. And as usual, his answers are concise, incisive, and analytic. If you want to understand this crisis and some possible outcomes, don’t miss this conversation.

Buckle up. Come on a tour of London with a difference and find out how Putin's oligarchs hide and spend their money in the capital. Money-laundering expert Oliver Bullough is your guide.

Pop group singer and actor shoe horned into a role he is quite unqualified for. Now being made into a hero figure by the western propaganda machine to Putin's demonization. If it were not so serious it would be laughable. Seems America and the West not content with Afghanistan/Iraq/Libya/Syria/Iran wanted a repeat performance located in Europe. These dark controlling cults care nothing for humanity. All they want is death, chaos and destruction. Proxy battles in countries where foreigners take the hit and other countries pick up the pieces. Ukraine is a bear trap that Russia could not resist. It may be terminal for both bait and bear - indeed for the whole forest.
ReplyDeleteWarning: Dead Russian soldiers. As always it is the young who die as a result of old men's decisions. The reality of war for individuals and families.

What a coincidence? On the very day the covid restriction were removed ('Danger passed') a new one emerges (Russia invades Ukraine) Thus fear is maintained in the population and justification for all the measures that bear down on the population's freedom and economic prosperity, whilst yet again a relative few benefit hugely. As to 'convenient' the west always likes to have a scape goat for the mess it creates itself. There is the mess of covid which includes the historic national debt that will have to be paid for in TAXES. Increase in fuel and food prices can now be blamed on Putin as will the disruption of trade and travel. With no Russian money the London property market is likely to be hit as will the City and financial markets. This is not to say that many well placed persons will make a fortune as they always do in war. And this does not even include the knock on effects of another war zone and the loss of life and property this inevitably involves. That's what I mean by 'convenient excuse' as all can and is being blamed on the Russian action, when the real reason is our own system, leaders and institutions.
ReplyDeleteIt's worth remembering that an estimated (by the Ukrainian side) around 7,000 mainly young Russians have been killed, all with parents and loved ones. Of course as with all soldiers they have little choice in the matter and as usual in war it is kill, or be killed. There are always two sides to every coin and three to every opinion - mine, yours and the truth. Taking sides is a trap for the unwary and sympathy for human suffering should avoid it. Britain in the past two decades has been up to its eyes doing the self same thing it now accuses Russia of. We are in no position to take the moral high ground having flattened and or abandoned numerous countries. We have now done the same to Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteThis issue in the west is drowning in hypocrisy and cant, from the pretence that it has not engineered and predicted this outcome; to as usual portraying the war as one of freedom and 'western values' when in fact it is about geo-political power and control of natural resources; to pretending to stand on the moral high ground when in fact it has taken an identical course in umpteen foreign countries; to applying humanitarian and legal rules to Russia, whilst for seventy years in the case of Israel ignoring them completely. The west has engineered this proxy war to ruin Ukraine and ruin Russia, and then stands back claiming it cannot get involved for fear of a nuclear exchange. Has there ever been a greater or more morally debased position?
ReplyDeleteIn response to a post elsewhere: I fully accept the blatant hypocrisy and double standards of the West. Their policy towards Ukraine for the past ten years at least has been pretty despicable. It bears a good deal of the responsibility for the current unfolding disaster. Ukraine may have been technically a 'sovereign state' from 1991 onwards but it would be foolish to disregard the long Russia-centred history that preceded it, or the way in which Moscow saw it as irrevocably in its sphere of influence. I do not support Putin's invasion, or the death and destruction it will inevitably cause - in fact a reversion to Stalinist repression both sides of the border for the foreseeable future. How could it be otherwise if there is stiff and violent opposition to it? Reprehensibly the west encouraged it, predicted it, calculated its devastating consequences, then sat back on its rhetorical haunches and even bragged about how it had successfully coordinated western opposition and backed the resistance with weapons and even mercenaries. Meanwhile supporting Israel doing the self same thing to the West Bank and Gaza. America, Britain and the rest are morally bankrupt and this human disaster in Ukraine proves it.
