The Ukraine conflict could have been avoided. Why wasn't it? Why did NATO need to expand up to Russia's border? NATO created the problem. Russia could not have a NATO country along it's vast border with Ukraine, with the full weight of all NATO responding to any conflict that occurs on the Russia Ukraine border. To ignore that security essential for Russia, is to be insane. Am I missing something? Here we are. Russia is not 'just a gas station' for a country after all.

Also, those of us old enough to remember the 1980's will have heard it all before, the 'enemy' then being the Soviet Union, including Ukraine, but was sometimes lazily referred to as 'the Russians'.

It also worth pointing out that many of those too young to remember the Cold War have fallen for the 'Russia was behind Brexit' psy-op; and that the EU and NATO both share a common territorial ambition in eastward expansion and have done for the past decade as far as Ukraine is concerned.

The way I feel about it is that it also might be nudging for arms spending, if you look at the recent telegraph article https://archive.is/3hkre the comparison between the UK Chinese and Russian forces is very telling, nevermind that the population and landmass is vastly difference, it literaly looks like a scare article for spending more money on arms.

I have very mixed feelings about how seriously to take this week's big nudge - the suggestion that British people might be subject to conscription.

On the one hand, a huge belly laugh. In fact, I chuckled, on and off, all day. Do the authorities really think they're going to have much luck persuading a population that sat on the sofa for a year and a half over-consuming because they were too scared to leave the house to go to a foreign warfront?

On the other, regardless of what the the general knows or doesn't know, I have no doubt that this is part of a move to create war, possibly WWIII. And then a really big question is starting to form at the back of my mind. Is humanity being primed to destroy (most of) itself? Regardless of what you think about the extra-terrestrial issue, this conversation is well worth a watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pM7_s9EmsDI&t=21s

You seem to ignore the possibility that Russia is the culprit nudging us toward war with Russia because it has decided to go full military / Fascist, attacking its neighbors to recreate the great Russian Empire.

Isn't it blindingly obvious by now that all these states pushing for war are in it together and the rest of us are being played, big time? This isn't a film or footy match where we pick the side we want to win and tell ourselves stories about the baddies over there to justify our fantasy world - this is the eternal divide and rule ploy that enables those with effective political power to keep it by getting us arguing about goodies and baddies.

I couldn’t agree more. Just the same old scripture they have been preaching for thousands of years. The whole world was mandated to implant Advanced Technology into the human body. If that doesn’t tell you every Gruberment in the world is under the same control nothing will.

I think there is some truth to that but, at the same time, I think it is possible that Putin is a legitimate psychopath who has decided that the crowning achievement of his dictatorial career is to re-make the great Russian Empire, putting the West in the position where they have to deal with a situation familiar from the mid-Twentieth Century. I don't get any sense that Russia, China, and the US are conspiring together. I think they are at each other's throats in a real world situation of rapidly diminishing resources, including diminishing fossil fuel reserves. This kind of conspiracy thinking is very black/white, very two dimensional. Yes the entire Nation State system is bad for common humanity and we need something better. But we also have dictators with massive power and psychopathic personality types fixated on territorial and ideological conquest.

And the entire "war between good and bad nation states" narrative isn't black and white? You think Putin runs Russia? You think "goverment heads run countries"? It's like a superhero comic book or wwe wrasslin or something, come on sir.

Even Mussoulini had people breathing down his neck, do you also think Joe Biden "controls America", my friend?

Exactly. It's the Russian State Duma that makes decisions about war.

There is no actual evidence Russia had intentions. of recreating the old Soviet Union. None except media blathering about it.

interesting perspective.

China Russia USA UK and every other Gruberment in the world Mandated their citizens to be Implanted with Advanced Technology. Surely this tells us they are all controlled by the same power above them. Every country has the same Masters.

They started with a limited mobilization and goal to go in and protect the Russians in that region that have long been under attack from extreme right in Ukraine with aid from US UK. In fact it was the US that expressed their desire to ‘weaken Russia’ by arming Ukraine. Russia has never stated any interest in conquering all of Ukraine or expanding empire. I think Russia invaded after numerous appeals to UN for Ukraine and West to honor Minsk agreement.

Hi Kittykat, Perhaps an overdose of catnip has negatively impacted your cognitive faculties? You can always look at a situation from different angles but you are looking at this from the wrong angle... Russian propaganda got mixed into your Kittykatnip maybe?

Well actually I followed Eastern Europe affairs long before the invasion. I’m not saying Russia is not a threat but that this current war which was predicted to destroy Ukraine and strengthen Russia could have been avoided. If Russia were losing then I suppose it could have been a good idea--But they are not!

That's the narrative. There is more to the "unprovoked attack" story.

You don't really belive in all that multipolarity nonsense do you?

I mean Russia has been supplying Europe with liquid natural gas throughout Ukraine the entire time, then theres all the other gobshite, how Russia was totaly complicit in the covid scam, and has actualy implemented the UN sdg's in it's goverment mission statement.... http://static.kremlin.ru/media/events/files/en/o7Fi3kqCLa7vKJiAAhQXDU4ptCt81YiM.pdf

Sounds very much like Vietnam. It was ok for the US to send the barrels to make AK47,s to Russia as long as the trigger mechanism was not connected to the barrel.

Have you ever read Anthony Suttons books Allan?

Standard oil provided the NS-state the means to make oil from coal.

Sutton also outlines how the US fed the Soviets technology throughout the cold war in his book "Wallstreet and the Bolshevik revulotion".

There is also a famous picture of Nixon and Khrushchev enjoying an ice cold Pepsi together, that speaks a thousand words https://media.gettyimages.com/id/515578848/photo/khrushchev-and-nixon-drinking-pepsi-cola.jpg?s=1024x1024&w=gi&k=20&c=zbYo1QDNKaDKStmdDaizFgjskb3jsEKMDmNJHxNfAac= An additional "fun fact" is that Pepsi was the first soft drink allowed in the USSR, and they bought lots of Pepsi syrup to be mixed and bottled in the Soviet state, later on Pepsico would be crucial in "disarming the USSR" by buying and trading Pepsi syrup for old military hardware, Pepsico at one point actualy owned the largest private collection of military hardware in the world.

I don’t think I have read Sutton. My history teacher in 77 opened the door to underground books and real history by researching the truth of Pearl Harbour. I then worked back following there methods of control. Now understanding that over the last couple of centuries THEY have mastered the art of unconditional control. This has been achieved by their total control of Knowledge to the masses. Just like with the Bible that Knowledge is controlled by the controllers. The Priest is replaced by The News Presenter. They both receive their sermons from their controllers which are believed unconditionally. They still use the Biblical Fractunation method of Heaven and Hell. War and Peace. High and Low. Good and Bad. Now with Advanced Technology Implanted into the majority of Humanity WHO knows what happens next.

I do wonder how the UN plays into all this conflict. All the BRICS countries are members of UN so they are required to cooperate on UN matters and probably have more or less influence depending on their relative power, but that does not mean they are all in cahoots either.

Most of the BRICS countries are also g20 countries, BRICS itself was also an idea coined by Goldman-Sachs, call me foolhardy, but thats enough for me! https://archive.is/fHKq5

In addition I have been following Riley Wagman("Edward slavsquat") for quite some time, Russia is definetly engaged in transhumanist technocracy-style fascism. https://edwardslavsquat.substack.com
