The
howlers issuing from these occasions are enough to split your sides.
Obama and his lap dog Cameron described the Normandy landing on June 6,
1944, as “the greatest liberation force that the world has ever known”
and took all the credit for the US and Britain for the defeat of
Hitler. No mention was made of the Soviet Union and the Red Army, which
for three years prior to the Normandy landing had been fighting and
defeating the Wehrmacht.
Author Dr. Paul Craig Roberts
The
Germans lost World War II at the Battle of Stalingrad, which was fought
from August 23, 1942 until February 2, 1943, when most of the remnants
of the powerful German Sixth Army surrendered, including 22 generals.
Nineteen
months previously the largest invasion force ever assembled on planet
earth invaded Russia across a one thousand mile front. Three million
crack German troops; 7,500 artillery units, 19 panzer divisions with 3,000 tanks, and 2,500 aircraft rolled across Russia for 14 months.
By
June 1944, three years later, very little of this force was left. The
Red Army had chewed it up. When the so-called “allies” (a term which
apparently excludes Russia) landed in France, there was little to resist
them. The best forces remaining to Hitler were on the Russian front,
which collapsed day by day as the Red Army approached Berlin.
The
Red Army won the war with Germany. The Americans and the British showed
up after the Wehrmacht was exhausted and in tatters and could offer
little resistance. Joseph Stalin believed that Washington and London
stayed out of the war until the last minute and left Russia with the
burden of defeating Germany.
Hollywood
and popular writers have, of course, buried the facts. Americans have
all sorts of movies, such as “A Bridge Too Far,” that portray
insignificant events, however heroic, as turning points in the war.
Nevertheless, the facts are clear. The war was won on the Eastern front
by Russia. Hollywood’s movies are fun, but they are nonsense.
Russia
is again on the outs with “the world community,” because Obama’s plan
to seize Ukraine and to evict Russia from its Black Sea base in Crimea
has come a cropper. Crimea has been a part of Russia for as long as the
US has existed. Khrushchev, a Ukrainian, stuck Crimea into the
Ukrainian Socialist Republic in 1954 when Russia and Ukraine were part
of the same country.
When
the Washington-imposed stooge government in Kiev recently declared that
it was abolishing the use of the Russian language and arresting
Ukrainians who had dual Russian citizenship and began tearing down
Russian war memorials consecrated to the liberation of Ukraine from the
Nazis, the people in Crimea used the ballot box to disassociate from
Washington’s stooge government in Kiev, first voting their independence
and then voting for reunification with their mother country.
Washington, and the other
G-7 countries following Washington’s orders, described this Crimean act
of self-determination, which is exactly comparable to the act of
self-determination declared by Britain’s American colonies, to be a case
of “Russian invasion and annexation.” Similar efforts to disassociate
from Kiev are underway in other former Russian territories that today comprise eastern and southern Ukraine.
Washington
has equated self-determination in eastern and southern Ukraine with
“terrorism” and has encouraged its stooge in Kiev to use military
violence against protesting civilians. The reason for branding
separatists “terrorists” is to make it OK to kill them.
It
is extraordinary to any learned person that the President of the United
States and the titular heads of state of the Western European countries
would publicly declare such blatant lies to the world. The world has
historians. The world has peoples whose knowledge vastly exceeds that
of the “mainstream media,” a.k.a., the Ministry of Propaganda, or, as
Gerald Celente brands them, “the presstitutes.” Whatever name we use,
the Western media is a collection of well paid whores.They lie for
money, dinner party invitations, and speaking invitations with large
honorariums and book contracts with large advances.
I know. They tried to recruit me.
Notice
how narrowly Washington defines “the world community.” The “world
community” consists of the Group of 7. That’s it. Seven countries make
up the “world community.” The “world community” consists of six white
countries and Washington’s puppet state of Japan. The “world community”
is the US, Canada, Britain, Germany, France, Italy, and Japan. The
other 190 countries are not part of Washington’s “world community.” In
the neocon doctrine, they are not even part of humanity.
The “world community” doesn’t have the population of single excluded
countries, such as China or India. I haven’t done the calculation, but
probably the land mass of Russia itself exceeds the land mass of the
“world community.”So, what is this “world community?”
The “world community” is the
assemblage of US vassal states. Britain, France, and Germany were
important on the 20th century scene. Their histories are studied in
universities. The populations had a decent standard of living, although
not for all citizens. Their past is the reason for their present
importance.
In
effect, these countries were propelled forward by history, or by the
history important to the West. Japan, being an appendage of Washington,
has tried to become “western.” It is extraordinary how such a proud,
war-like people became nothing.
As I have finally stopped
laughing at the presumed non-role of Russia in the defeat of Hitler,
let’s return to the G-7 meeting. The Big Happening of this meeting was
Russia’s exclusion and the shrinkage of the G-8 to the G-7.
This was the first time in 17 years that Russia was not allowed to participate in the meeting of which Russia is a member. Why?Russia is being punished. Russia is being isolated from the 7 countries that the White House Fool thinks constitute “the world community.”
Obama
is angry that his National Security Council and the morons he appointed
to the State Department and UN were so poorly educated that they did
not know that much of the Ukraine consists of former Russian provinces
inhabited by Russians. These ignorant Obama-appointed morons thought
that they could grab Crimea, evict Russia, and leave Russia without
access to the Mediterranean, thus unable to hold on to its naval base in
Tartus, Syria, the easier for Washington to invade Syria.
Crimea
has been part of Russia since Russia completed the reconquest from the
Tartars. I remember the Tarter, or Tater, ethnics from my visit to
Tamerlane the Great’s (Timur as he was also known) tomb in Samarkand 53
years ago. Today Tamerlane’s city is refurbished as a tourist site. 53
years ago it was a desolate place in ruins, overgrown with trees growing
out of the tops of the minarets.
As
Obama’s plan to seize Ukraine failed, like every one of his other plans
has failed, Washington’s spokesmen for the vested private interests
have seized on the opportunity to demonize Putin and Russia and to
restart the Cold War. Obama and his Group of 7 puppets or vassals used
the occasion to threaten Russia with real sanctions, in place of the
present propaganda sanctions that have no effect. According to Obama
and his British lap dog, Putin must somehow prevent the Russian
populations of eastern and southern Ukraine from protesting their
subservience to a neo-fascist government in Kiev backed by Washington,
or else.
Putin
is supposed to embrace the Oligarch, a former minister of the
government that Washington overthrew, put in office by a fake vote in
which turnout was a small percent of the population. Putin is supposed
to kiss this corrupt Oligarch on both cheeks, pay Ukraine’s natural gas
bills and forgive its debts. In addition, Russia is supposed to
repudiate the Crimean people, evict them from their re-unity with Russia
and hand them over to the neo-Nazi Right Sector to be eliminated as
retribution for Russia’s victory over Nazi Germany, for whom some
Western Ukrainians fought. In exchange, Washington and NATO will put
anti-ballistic missile bases on Ukraine’s border with Russia in order to
protect Europe from nonexistent Iranian nuclear ICBMs.
This is supposed to be a win-win deal for Russia.
The Obama regime used its well-paid NGOs in Ukraine to overthrow an
elected, democratic government, a government no more corrupt than those
in Western or Eastern Europe or Washington.
The
political morons who have England, France, Germany, and Italy in their
hands are wagging their fists at Russia, warning of more, this time
real, sanctions. Do these morons really want their energy supplies cut
off? There is no prospect, despite the propagandistic claims, of
Washington supplying the energy on which Germany industry depends and on
which Europeans depend so that they do not freeze in the winter.
Sanctions
on Russia will wreck Europe and have little, if any, effect on Russia.
Russia is already moving, with China and the BRICS, outside the dollar
payments mechanism.
As the demand for dollars drops, the dollar’s exchange value will
drop. Initially, Washington will be able to force its vassals to
support the dollar, but eventually this will become impossible.
What
the White House Fool, the neoconized National Security Council, the
presstitute media, and subservient Congress are doing is to support and
uphold the policies based on hubris and arrogance that are leading the
US into the abyss.
An abyss is like a black hole. You don’t get out.
Washington’s
lies are so blatant and transparent that Washington is destroying its
own credibility. Consider the NSA spying. Documents released by
Snowden and Greenwald make it completely clear that Washington spies not
only on government leaders and ordinary people but also on foreign
businesses in order to advance US commercial and financial interests.
That the US steals Chinese business secrets is not in doubt. So what
does Washington do? Washington not only denies what the documents prove
but turns the charge around and indicts five Chinese generals for
spying on US corporations.
The only purpose of these indictments hyped by the US attorney general is propaganda.
The
indictments are otherwise totally meaningless, not merely false. China
is not about to turn over five Chinese generals to the liars in
Washington. For the presstitute media the story is a way to move the NSA’s spying out of the spotlight. China is substituted for the NSA as the guilty party.
Why doesn’t China, Brazil, Germany and every other country issue arrest warrants for
NSA’s top officials, for Obama, and for the members of the
congressional oversight committee? Why do other countries always allow
Washington to control the explanation with propaganda first strikes?
Americans are very
susceptible to propaganda. They seem to have a special taste for it.
Consider the hate whipped up against Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl, a US soldier
just released by the Taliban in a prisoner exchange with the US. The
hatred and bloodlust that the presstitute media have whipped up against
Bergdahl has caused his hometown to cancel the celebration of his
release. The press engineered hatred of Bergdahl has spilled over into
threats against Hailey, Idaho.
What
is the basis for the attacks on Bergdahl? Apparently, the answer is
that Bergdahl, like pro-football star Pat Tillman who turned down a $3.6
million contract to join the Army Rangers and go to defend freedom in
Afghanistan, came down with a case of doubts about the war. Originally
Pat Tillman’s death was attributed to his heroic action and enemy fire.
Then it emerged that Tillman was a victim of “friendly fire.” Many
concluded that he was murdered, because the government did not want a
sports hero speaking out about the war. As Bergdahl is off the
battlefield, he has to be murdered in the press–like Russia, China,
Iran, Putin, Assad, Crimeans, and the Russian-speaking population in
Ukraine.
In America hate and the cultivation of hate is alive and well. But not a single moral virtue is.
