NATO has escalated the war in Ukraine in recent months.
September 26, 2022, NATO destroyed the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, the property of Russia and Germany, in an outright act of war exposed by Seymour Hersh.
On December 7, 2022, the risk of escalating warfare between NATO and Russia exploded as Ukrainian drones hit a third airfield deep inside Russia. These follow hard-upon remarks suggesting a tacit approval by NATO for attacks within Russia.
The attacks targeted nuclear-capable strategic bombers that may have been used in the devastation of Ukraine’s electric grid.
As of March 2023, NATO has announced plans to move 300,000 troops to its eastern border in Poland, on the Russian border.
On March 31, Martin Armstrong reported that the US was sending a “Judgment Day” E-6B strategic control and communications aircraft which is used for communication with nuclear submarines to control any launch of intercontinental ballistic missiles.
Earlier in the week the State Department urged all Americans to leave Russia.
Some history
The American Neocons have been planning a military takedown of Russia since at least 2015 when stratfor.com’s George Friedman in his decade-ahead forecast wrote that in the coming decade, Russia would “collapse” and it would be necessary for NATO forces to go in and take away Vladimir Putin’s nukes. Stratfor is considered by many to be a mouthpiece for the views of the CIA.
Following the 2014 color revolution in Ukraine backed by the US, preparations were made for an assault on the breakaway Russian-speaking provinces, as they were subjected to continuous shelling by their ostensible Ukrainian countrymen. An invasion was being readied in early 2022 that forced Putin's hand.
This article advances the thesis that WWIII, aka the Great Reset, was conceived as a cooperative effort of China’s CCP and the World Economic Forum to introduce World Communism (really neo-feudalism) but midway through, the Davos crowd decided they wanted to be on top in the New World Order, and decided to scuttle China, as they believe the West has demographic and geographic advantages that will enable it to come out on top, while still getting their Great Reset.
The US military and CCP collaborated on gain-of-function bioweapon research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology. Dr. Fauci’s NIAID funded it. This is well-known now.
The WEF Neocons, after a decade of studying Russian and Chinese demographics, decided that the time was ripe to go for perpetual unipolar dominance. They had always planned to take down Russia, but now China looked vulnerable.
The strategy of the plutocrats (who “own” the Neocons) is to create famine, physical disease and weakness, and chaos throughout humanity, to bring us to our knees, and then to offer a Universal Basic Income and a cattle tag required to buy or sell to everyone to survive. This is a widely-held premise.
The Neocon side is represented by Peter Zeihan, who previously worked for George Friedman at Stratfor and has assimilated Friedman’s Machiavellian worldview. Zeihan has become a highly visible spokesmodel for the Neocon brief. My impression is that Zeihan is gung ho on a perpetual pax Americana resulting from winning the Great Reset, but hasn’t thought through the rest of it.
The destruction of Russia is an idée fixe with the Neocons, while NATO’s aggression represents an existential threat to Putin and the Russian Federation — a fact that Zeihan gleefully acknowledges.
Neither side is willing to budge. Irresistible force meets immovable object.
There will be escalation.
Demograpics Is Destiny
The essence of the Neocons’ belief that they can “win” World War III, the Great Reset, is that Russia and China both face steep demographic cliffs, Russia’s an echo of the WWII losses and the collapse of the USSR; and China’s of the one-child policy under Mao. China’s is by far the steeper. I wrote about this back in July in “What Are the Neocons Thinking?”
Zeihan says that the Chinese Communist Party might be thrown out of power this year as the result of its zero-Covid policies, the aftermath of uncontrolled opening up, and the real estate-led financial collapse and its towering debt load. The Neocons have added a semiconductor embargo to try to cripple China’s tech sector, as well as other sanctions.
Zeihan crows on YouTube that the US Navy could send China back to the Stone Age by embargoing its energy and food imports, upon which China is heavily dependent.
Russia’s situation is not as bad. Russia’s national debt is exemplary. Direct non-dollar-denominated trade outside the Western bloc is exploding.
Zeihan’s thesis is that globalization was only possible so long as the US Navy maintained open sea lanes. He is content now to let the rest of the world stew in their juices, believing that international trade will be difficult without US gunboats to patrol the seas and that no nation will suffer the increased risks to maritime shipping more than China, which is heavily dependent on imported food and energy. On cue, the US Navy will interdict Chinese imports., Zeihan implies.
On Putin
I have watched all five hours of Oliver Stone's interviews with Vladimir Putin. My impression is that Putin is a man of intellect and integrity, as much as a world leader can be. He wanted peaceful integration with Europe, not to conquer it. Russia is too weak to do so and he knew it. The Ukraine war was provoked by the US Neocons, who prevented Zelensky from honoring the Minsk agreements that would have allowed the eastern regions of Ukraine to remain Russian culturally, and Ukraine to remain non-nuclear.
Putin’s request for a non-nuclear Ukraine was exactly analogous to the Soviet request in 1962 for NATO missiles to be removed from Turkey and Italy in exchange for Soviet missiles being removed from Cuba, a deal that was accomplished by Kennedy and Khrushchev.
Putin was asking for a similar courtesy.
No such luck with the Neocons running the show.
The core elements of Putin's military doctrine that I derive from the Stone interviews and elsewhere can be boiled down to two axioms:
If a fight is inevitable, throw the first punch. We saw this in February 2022.
If a conventional war appears in danger of fatally weakening the Russian Federation, “escalate to de-escalate,” by first inflicting disproportionate damage to the enemy’s assets.
Escalation appears inevitable. This is especially so as the Russians conceive of the conflict in civilizational terms, as a battle to the death of Orthodox Christianity against what they perceive to be a Satanic Western culture.
The Russian Federation will not survive if they lose in Ukraine. This is why the Neocons insist on winning in Ukraine. And it is why Putin cannot afford to lose.
No animal fights harder than one attacked on its home turf.
Again — all this could have been avoided if the West had agreed to the Minsk agreements and worked on the peaceful integration of Russia into a Europe-tilted Eurasian trading bloc.
But the Military Industrial Complex has its needs.
Instead, the world's potential GDP will be damaged for decades as part of the objectives of the plutocrats’ depopulation agenda. The burgeoning literature on the effects of Covid on fertility attests to this.
When Putin steps down, the Russian Neocons will take power. Escalation will become inevitable. Putin was patient, trusting the West to honor the Minsk agreements that Angela Merkel recently said were a stalling tactic while Ukraine rearmed.
Forms of escalation
The kinetic war in Ukraine is likely to spread to the high seas, as NATO attempts to embargo Russian oil flows, especially those to China. Neocon Zeihan says that China would be reduced to a pre-industrial level in months under an oil embargo. Western insurers are already doing everything they can to impede Russian oil shipments. China is also heavily dependent on imported natural gas.
More ridiculous “climate crisis” actions will be taken to curtail the food supply. Obama’s science advisor physicist Steven Koonin warns that spastic restrictions on social functioning can do more harm than climate change ever will — as we are seeing with the enforced annihilation of agriculture in Holland and Sri Lanka.
Weakened populations in the US and the European Union are an objective of the globalists.
The double-cross
The end of the WEF’s equal partnership with the CCP was signaled when George Soros excoriated Chairman Xi. Soros told him he was too dictatorial to be on the Open Society bus anymore, saying that the social credit system would give Xi too much control over his people (wink), and Xi was building too many coal-fired plants, more than the rest of the world combined — and getting too cocky.
The Davos crowd decided Xi was toast. They are going for unipolar dominance.
In summary, the people of the United States and Europe were attacked by their governments and the CCP. The governments of the West shamelessly kowtowed to the Chinese lockdown system that had previously been extolled in a Rockefeller foundation document from 2010, however. But neither side likely understood the toll that lockdowns would take on their societies.
The Chinese are not using mRNA genetic injections; they consider them too dangerous. They know that both the virus and the “vaccine” are bioweapons. And the Chinese didn’t need to depopulate, except maybe old people. The spike proteins in both the virus and the genetic injections are toxic.
Chinese young people face an economy with falling wages in debt deflation. Many university graduates cannot find jobs and are responding by "lying flat’ and working odd jobs.
So WWIII, aka the Great Reset, has evolved into the WEF Plutocrats against China and Russia and their own people. The target is still techno-tyranny in Europe and the Americas, with a healthy measure of depopulation thrown in, and the breakup of China and Russia into vassal states without superpower status, also subject to techno-tyranny.
The purpose of the provoked Ukraine war and its attendant energy and food crises is to weaken and break up Russia. The Covid pandemic enabled the cabal to weaken and enslave the people of the West. The EU went along with their self-destruction, with the loss of Russian energy. The politicians must have been highly compensated. The German industrial base, the core of the EU economy, is being destroyed.
Conclusion
Trustworthy independent analysts predict that Russia will win the ground war in Ukraine in 2023 on superior manpower and armaments, other things equal.
But as the Neocons have been more and more open about their intentions of regime change and breaking up Russia, and as NATO’s position in Ukraine becomes hopeless, it becomes more likely that one side or the other will escalate — possibly preemptively.
The plutocrats like chaos. They seem content to kill off a substantial portion of the world’s population so long as they have a viable servant class at the end. Another pandemic is probably their favorite next move. This would shut the world down again, demoralizing humanity utterly. As Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.’s brilliant The Real Anthony Fauci exhaustively documents, Bill Gates’s “decade of vaccines” did not go to waste. The biosecurity network stands at the ready.
To the question of why politicians, media, and business leaders go along with all this, the answer is easy. They’re bought and paid for, threatened, or both.
Major nations appear poised to yield sovereignty to the World Health Organization, as the cabal prepares for the next pandemic. In response, some American states are declaring their medical sovereignty.
The tabletop exercise for the next pandemic has already been run, called “Catastrophic Contagion,” of a deadly mutated enterovirus that hits in 2025. See the post below for details, and the Bill and Melinda clip for their facial expressions talking about pandemic number 2.
Spartacus’s post shows that the SARS-CoV-2 virus was very likely created in the Wuhan lab as a US-CCP joint effort and released intentionally. It complements Sash Latypova’s post.
The Lord Almighty has a day in store
for all the proud and lofty,
for all that is exalted
(and they will be humbled)
Isaiah 2:12
I agree with Kevin McKernan on this: too many sequences consistent with the basic spike protein bioweapon formulation. And I can tell you, as an unvaxxed person who had it, it wasn't the flu.
The lethality of the virus was disproved by IFR studies in March 2020. I believe it is a real virus because as Kevin McKernan says, the genome was sequenced thousands of times all over the world; the spike protein has been studied clinically for its nasty endothelial properties; and finally, I'm unvaxxed and had it in 2022 and it is real (I had shortness of breath, myocarditis, and unbelievable aches all over--definitely not a flu).
The pandemic *was* fake, because they used fear to make people believe a relatively harmless virus for most people was highly lethal.
