UK RAISES ALERT LEVEL
The English are feeling the pinch in relation to recent Russian threats and have therefore raised their security level from “Miffed” to “Peeved.” Soon, though, security levels may be raised yet again to “Irritated” or even “A Bit Cross.” The English have not been “A Bit Cross” since the blitz in 1940 when tea supplies nearly ran out. The Russians have been re-categorized from “Tiresome” to “A Bloody Nuisance.” The last time the British issued a “Bloody Nuisance” warning level was in 1588, when threatened by the Spanish Armada.
The Scots have raised their threat level from “Pissed Off” to “Let’s Get the Bastards.” They don’t have any other levels. This is the reason they have been used on the front line of the British army for the last 300 years.
The French government announced yesterday that it has raised its terror alert level from “Run” to “Hide.” The only two higher levels in France are “Collaborate” and “Surrender.” The rise was precipitated by a recent fire that destroyed France’s white flag factory, effectively paralyzing the country’s military capability.
Italy has increased the alert level from “Shout Loudly and Excitedly” to “Elaborate Military Posturing.” Two more levels remain: “Ineffective Combat Operations” and “Change Sides.”
The Germans have increased their alert state from “Disdainful Arrogance” to “Dress in Uniform and Sing Marching Songs.” They also have two higher levels: “Invade a Neighbour” and “Lose.”
Belgians, on the other hand, are all on holiday as usual; the only threat they are worried about is NATO pulling out of Brussels.
The Spanish are all excited to see their new submarines ready to deploy. These beautifully designed subs have glass bottoms so the new Spanish navy can get a really good look at the old Spanish navy.
Australia, meanwhile, has raised its security level from “No worries” to “She’ll be alright, Mate.” Two more escalation levels remain: “Crikey! I think we’ll need to cancel the barbie this weekend!” and “The barbie is cancelled.” So far, no situation has ever warranted use of the final escalation level.
The Americans will be there in a year or so!

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.

Over the last few weeks we've seen all kinds of war-porn circulated by Britain's depraved media commentariat.
Last month virtually every UK media outlet ran stories based on pictures of 79 year old Granny Valentyna, who was being trained to defend her home from Russians with an assault rifle.
What most of these outlets "forgot" to mention in their heart-warming coverage was that she was being trained by the neo-Nazi Azov battalion, who were the ones who supplied western media with the photos!

ReplyDeleteThey turned literal neo-Nazi propaganda into feel good war-porn, and huge numbers of people gladly lapped it up!
We've seen videos of civilians preparing Molotov cocktails; images of Ukrainian children being trained up as child soldiers; clips of unarmed civilians blocking Russian convoys; and over the weekend the BBC's Jeremy Bowen uncritically posted a printed Ukrainian guide on how to attack and disable Russian military vehicles.
Anyone with a genuine anti-war stance will be able to see the utter hypocrisy of this kind of 'feel good' war-porn.
There's no doubt that Russia is the invading imperialist power in this conflict, and that people's sympathies should tend to lie with the invaded, rather than the invaders, but let's compare the overwhelmingly positive reaction to these examples of Ukrainian resistance to the reactions we'd expect if such things had happened during other imperialist occupations in the recent past, where Britain and British allies have been the imperialist invaders.
How do you think a BBC journalist would have fared if they'd uncritically circulated a guide for Iraqi civilians on how to take out the military vehicles of British and American occupiers with improvised explosive devices?
Had a bunch of ideological extremists like Al Qaida circulated images of a 79 year old Afghan woman doing assault rifle training to face down the NATO invasion force, would it have been run as a 'feel good' positive news story by pretty much the entire UK media?
Would a video of Palestinian civilians producing Molotov cocktails to attack the illegal Israeli occupiers ever be circulated by war-horny liberals as proof of their brave community spirit in the face of brutal oppression?
If the Houthis in Yemen released glossy pictures of child soldiers they'd been training up to fight the British-backed Saudi war criminals who have been attacking and invading their country since 2014, would they be uncritically circulated across social media like the Ukrainian images, or would they be used as evidence of their barbarity and their rejection of our civilised Western values?
ReplyDeleteAnd just ask yourself what would have happened to unarmed civilians in places like Iraq or Afghanistan if they'd tried to block the progress of US military convoys with unarmed flag-waving protests.
It's astonishing to see how people's supposedly liberal values completely change depending on which side they're told to take.
The violent conduct of Russian occupiers that horrifies them so much in this conflict elicits a thousand excuses when it's Britain, the US, Israel, Saudi Arabia, or NATO doing the invading, killing, and repressing.
And the resistance that they admire so much from the Ukrainians would fill them with disgust, anger, and contempt if it were coming from brown people seeking to defend their own homelands from invading British forces.
When we look at different invasions from an anti-imperialist stance, it's impossible not to clock the absolute hypocrisy of these war-horny liberals.
However, in their warped worldviews, it's the 'peaceniks' who are in the wrong!
The anti-war stance that "imperialist invasions are bad, no matter who is driving the tanks" reduces them to hot-headed rage because we're not hypocritically picking a side in the facile game of "goodies and baddies" they're engaged in.
As far as they're concerned, the rules on what's "brutal oppression", and what's "brave resistance" are completely malleable depending on who is doing the oppressing, and who is doing the resisting, and anyone who even tries to adopt anything resembling a morally consistent position must be some kind of despicable Putin-loving traitor, no matter how many times they've said that the invasion of Ukraine is wrong.
In 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.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you were aware of the Wakefield case prior to reading that piece on it as it was in all the newspapers at the time. If you are interested there are many interviews with him on the internet though U tube may have blocked him. This takes us back to the issue of free expression of ideas and how control is exercised in the west. It is more subtle than in Russia but probably just as effective as people don't realise they are being manipulated into thinking just one way. This was the case with Covid and is now the case with Ukraine. It has also been the case with vaccination policy. Vaccination has done a lot of good but its adverse effects are not acknowledged. Wakefield was drummed out of the country and profession on largely fabricated evidence. His research was blocked to prevent it establishing the truth about adverse effects in babies and small children. Many more have suffered as a result from gastro-intestinal complaints such as Crones disease, allergy and autistic syndromes. The Covid inoculations are not vaccinations in the traditional sense but were treated as if they were. For different reasons these too have caused a huge number of adverse effects, confirmed by Vaers in America and Yellow Card System here. Recent revelations of Pfizer research documents prove this was known before their approval and general release. The whole thing stinks from start to finish!
