WESTERN MAINSTREAM NEWS IS A PROPAGANDA TOOL : SWITCH OFF FOR GOOD

Unless it's about your weather for next week, a cat that has climbed up a telegraph pole and can’t get down or some natural disaster somewhere you have every right to be sceptical concerning what you’re hearing. This is especially true regarding some politician making a comment and even more so when talking heads are discussing national security or an aspect of western foreign policy. If the subject concerns an area where you are being encouraged to feel fear or it covers some geopolitical issue… my advice would be to switch off immediately.I say this because mainstream media is now organised to lie to you about every important issue and what is more, to condition your mind to feel fear, hate and give consent to government needs, on demand.

Why might this be so? If true, what is the motivation behind this endeavour?

The primary reason is that the entire western world and its allies are running scared.

Their long-held dominance over the world, their ability to arm-twist weaker nations, to exploit, threaten, and attack them with impunity, is ending. Their grip on and over the world is waning. Their grip is slipping. They are power-junkies who are losing their fix and are experiencing cold turkey. This is driving them to insane lengths to desperately hold on to what is left of the control and command mechanisms that have served them so well in the past. They are desperately using the old methods of fear, threat and violent attack that were used as tools effectively until now to maintain their position and keep others in their place, under control.

I am sure you have noticed how more and more nations that once could have been expected to kowtow to certain nations that have been until recently, overwhelmingly powerful, nations such as the USA and its sidekick/puppy dog, the United Kingdom, have now taken an oppositional, or at least neutral stance. Nations such as India and Saudi Arabia for instance. No longer do the ask how high when the USA-UK say jump. Now their leaders appear to have learnt how to say no and to do as they see fit, acting in their national interests as they see them, rather than be advised by those who conceive themselves to be their superiors.

Imagine how these new developments in the field of geopolitics feel to those who are used to having their order obeyed. Once upon a time sabres would have been rattled, battleships would have received orders to set sail and do a little intimidating to get the “natives” back into line. Nowadays these “natives” don’t seem to give a good goddamn. What happened?

What happened was the rise of China, a new guy on the block fit enough to come to the assistance of those being threatened by the two bullies who have ruled the roost on the world’s metaphorical mean streets for so long now. Gone were the days when Britain would send an army to Egypt to teach the Egyptians that nationalising the Suez Canal was a very bad idea. (As it happens that particular military adventure was one of the very last that Britain would try until it found safety in numbers in the various coalitions of the killing that the USA would organise many decades later.)

China was not meant to get rich and powerful. She was not meant to reach the stage she is now at where her influence and potential rivals that of the western powers. Neither was Russia supposed to recover from the collapse of the Soviet Union and the devastating consequences for the Russian people that would result. Both nations were supposed to stay weak just like all the other nations the USA and UK along with their gang of exploitative bullies manipulated for their benefit. In addition we see both India and Africa starting to throw back their metaphorical shoulders and begin to stare down the vulture nations of the West without a trace of the fear felt in the past.

The USA and UK in particular have soiled the cosy nest they believed they had built on the backs of others. Emerging from their dual “investment” in genocide, slavery and colonialism where exploitation was the often murderous game they played, now it is time to pay for their crimes in ignominy. Their humiliation is well deserved and it is now ongoing.

Depending on their old armoury of sordid weapons has not served any of the malign nations of the West in these modern times. Currently they are investing their last pennies and cents in a war against Russia where it seems every last Ukrainian will die as a tool within a virtual death machine created in Washington and London’s Whitehall. All in an attempt shore up their failing empire of murder, exploitation, fear and war-mongering within their dying empire of murderous lies.

But they will not die along and unloved. Their complicit army of media hacks will die with them. For they are the mouthpieces of these murderous liars, the stenographers and presstitutes who churn out fabrications and malicious fairytales to order. They are the simpering eunuchs who live only by the whim of the political elites who feed them the lies required to brainwash their hapless populations. There is no news these days as far as western national interests are concerned or where national security is invoked. The western mainstream news talking heads will not and tongues wag to order… or else. The issues discussed and the way they are framed will be as required or not at all. And where a real news item doesn’t fit it will simply be omitted altogether.

Currently the Seymour Hersh article showing how it was the USA in league with Norway that blew up the Nordstream pipeline has been banished and vanished from western screens, written out of history a la George Orwell’s ‘Ministry of Truth’ in his novel ‘1984’.

Turn off your screens and radios, refuse to buy into whatever material they wish to spread their propaganda through and dig deep on the web for those not bought and sold by the established powers, both political and media, who depend on you being addicted to their output, whether that be by BBC, CNN, Fox News, MSNBC or any others who are now almost totally corrupted by joining the war against the nations of the world who have at last become strong enough to fight their oppressors.

WESTERN MAINSTREAM NEWS IS A PROPAGANDA TOOL : SWITCH OFF FOR GOOD

THE ANNIVERSARY OF THE WAR IN UKRAINE : WHERE GUILT TRULY LIES

The true architects of the bloodshed and destruction taking place now in eastern Ukraine are the western leaders who now double down, making the extent of that bloodshed and destruction ever greater. Whatever their intent was, well-intentioned or purely based on self-interest they have worked from at least 2004 if not earlier to push Ukraine and Ukrainians in the direction that has now led to the ongoing tragedy we see before us now.

The interfering fingers of the West with almost unlimited financial power behind them have been at work in Ukraine at least since the Orange Revolution that took place in Ukraine in late 2004. Naturally its agents, the CIA, NED (National Endowment for Democracy) and without doubt many others including non-governmental organisations such as Open Society funded by George Soros. The intent behind such interference can be debated, whether it was to spread liberal democracy, or the loosely defined buzzwords of ‘freedom’ and ‘democracy’ the effects have proven to be devastating.

NATO, moving inexorably toward and up to Russia’s border was an outcome that Gorbachev was told would never happen at the time he agreed German reunification could occur without problems from the then Soviet Union. NATO, required new reasons to maintain its existence after the fall of both the Soviet Union and the nations of the Warsaw Pact, found that reason in antagonising Russia. Seen as weak after the soviet Union crumbled, Russia could be manipulated at the will of the western powers, or so they thought. NATO moved toward Russia in tranches, sometimes of several ex-Warsaw Pact nations at once. Why? Who was the enemy they were joining NATO against?

It was announced in 2008 that both Ukraine and Georgia would join NATO at some future date.

This from the NATO bulletin issued at the time of the summit:

‘At the Bucharest Summit, NATO Allies welcomed Ukraine's and Georgia's Euro-Atlantic aspirations for membership and agreed that these countries will become members of NATO.’

https://www.nato.int/docu/update/2008/04-april/e0403h.html

As the man who would become today’s CIA director William Burns said at the time this was “the reddest of red lines for Russia”.

During this period a reporter for the New York Times phoned the man who had been the acknowledged architect of the West’s containment policy of the Soviet Union, George Kennan. These are the responses he gave when asked about NATO’s expansion toward Russia:

''I think it is the beginning of a new cold war.'

''I think the Russians will gradually react quite adversely and it will affect their policies. I think it is a tragic mistake. There was no reason for this whatsoever. No one was threatening anybody else. This expansion would make the Founding Fathers of this country turn over in their graves.''

''I was particularly bothered by the references to Russia as a country dying to attack Western Europe. Don't people understand? Our differences in the cold war were with the Soviet Communist regime. And now we are turning our backs on the very people who mounted the greatest bloodless revolution in history to remove that Soviet regime.''

''It shows so little understanding of Russian history and Soviet history. Of course there is going to be a bad reaction from Russia, and then [the NATO expanders] will say that we always told you that is how the Russians are -- but this is just wrong.''

''This has been my life, and it pains me to see it so screwed up in the end.''

https://www.nytimes.com/1998/05/02/opinion/foreign-affairs-now-a-word-from-x.html

No matter how those most informed regarding the geopolitical risks spoke out, the requirement that NATO survive trumped all such concerns. And to survive it needed an enemy.

It was in 2007 that Vladimir Putin through an effort to respond to the world situation of that time where the USA and its allies were endlessly flexing their muscles in what has been described as ‘The Unipolar Moment’ when they were unopposed by any other power, that he gave NATO the “enemy” they required.

In his speech on the 10th of February 2007 at the 43rd Munich Security Conference he gave the assurance to the assembled western political elites that Russia would work in close cooperation with all other nations on projects of mutual benefit, such as those regarding international terrorism and nuclear proliferation. These assurances are not recalled these days however and were of course not responsible for Putin and Russia with Putin as president, became NATO’s chance to have the enemy it required.

The words that provided what NATO needed which Putin spoke that day concerned the unwillingness of Russia to be dictated to rather than be embraced as a great power. He spoke of the preemptive wars that the western powers seemed determined to inflict on the world which threatened international law, the status of the United Nations and the sovereignty of nations too weak to withstand western interference. With 9/11 only a few short years earlier this was not what the representatives of the USA wished to hear.

Russia was supposed to stay a weak and cowed power, no longer great and totally subservient to the West, obedient to its will and command, a nation whose leaders would know their place and stay in them, simply waiting to hear what they ought to do next, just one of many led by principally by the USA. However, Putin was in the process of healing Russia, of bringing Russia back to being a viable state after the catastrophic Yeltsin years. Putin was going to make Russia great again.

So it was that NATO continued to expand. No enemy was named but it was clear who the chosen enemy was. And the constant flurry of anti-Putin statements which only began in earnest after 2007 demonstrated the fact. A waterfall of articles, books and television specials targeted Putin after 2007 whereas from 2000 when he first assumed the Russian presidency to his speech in Munich in 2007 he had been wined and dined across the western world, he and his then wife even having an audience with Queen Elizabeth II of England.

This is one of the true principle backdrops to the current state of Ukraine, inexorable movement toward Russia by NATO, endless material, much of it without doubt coordinated by the CIA and other intelligence agencies portraying Putin as a dire threat and a series of dirty tricks/black operations to emphasise and fix this notion of putin as some kind of murderous devil in the minds of every westerner.

So it came to the events in Ukraine’s capital in 2014 when peaceful protests asking for Ukraine to move toward the EU and the West graduated into out and out violent insurrection in which over 15 young policemen died. Government buildings were raided and set on fire. Every possible weapon that could be devised was used from every imaginable club to bricks, toxic sprays, heavy chains, Molotov Cocktails, hand guns, hunting rifles and even a fork lift truck at one point. The president and government who had been elected in what were pronounced by election observers as good enough to be pronounced valid and indicative of public will, were overthrown. And top U.S. officials, both in the capital’s U.S embassy and on the Maidan Square where the insurrection took place, lent their active support.

All of what we see now followed as night follows day. Seeing their democratic right to elect the candidates of their choice torn asunder the Russian-speaking majority in both the Crimean Peninsula and the Donbass region of eastern Ukraine rose up peacefully to attempt a restoration of their democratic rights. They had their own ‘Maidan’, taking matters into their own hands without violence, demanding Russia help them in their hour of need and asserting the need for democratic referenda to reflect their will. These were duly carried out and showed that the people who had long looked east toward Russia still did so and prayed for salvation from the Ukrainian extremists who, backed by the USA and nations of the USA, were clearly determined to strip them not only of their democratic rights but of the language they spoke and the cultural affiliation with Russia that was so dear to them. It must be remembered that being next to the Russian border the people of the Donbass not only spoke Russian and identified themselves as ethnic Russians they were also in so many cases intermarried Russian and Ukrainian.

The new authorities in the capital would have none of this, pushed relentlessly through the pressure and fear emanating from the most extreme of ultra-nationalists in western Ukraine, those who often bear swastika tattoos and revere the memory of Adolf Hitler and still to this day use the Nazi salute, sent the Ukrainian military and assorted ultra-nationalist groupings to ‘deal’ with the problem. This led to the largely random bombardment of the villages, towns and cities of eastern Ukraine. From that time in 2014 when they arrived to the present day somewhere around 16,000 have died.

So we come to February 24th and the Russian incursion into Ukraine. This followed a period from 2014 when Putin and Russia sought a peaceful resolution to the problem of the Donbass, some way whereby the civilian population there could have the protective autonomy that would assure them that their language, cultural affiliations and freedom from attack, could be assured. In 2015, after negotiations between Russia, Germany, France and Ukraine such a plan was devised, or so it seemed. The plan was to lay out a pathway whereby the Donbass region would acquire a ‘special status’ amounting to a high degree of autonomy. Unknown until very recently this was simply a ruse by the western powers and the Ukrainians to buy time in order for Ukraine to rearm.

Angela Merkel of Germany and the ex-president of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko have recently confirmed that the promises given by Ukraine in Minsk were simply a sham used to buy time. Though the agreement reached was ratified by the United Nations it was at its heart a series of lies concocted by Merkel, Poroshenko and others to dupe Russia. Being unaware of this deception and taking the Minsk Agreements as an honest attempt to achieve peace and reconciliation with the Donbass region remaining within Ukraine, Putin worked tirelessly to achieve the goals set out. However no one else did and none of the steps toward peace signed up to by Ukraine were carried out.

Instead Ukraine proceeded to strengthen its military to NATO standards, to rearm and prepare itself to take back the Donbass region by military means. Ukraine became in fact a de facto NATO state. This was the case when the Ukrainian delegation in late 2021 stated that the Minsk Agreements no longer held any validity for them. It was also at this time or thereabouts that the new president, Zelensky talked of regaining Ukraine’s nuclear status.

At this time in late 2021 Putin made a final plea to both the U.S. government and to NATO that one, a new security architecture for Europe be worked on and agreed that also included security for the Russian state along with all others, and two, that NATO move back to the positions it held at the time Gorbachev was assured that NATO would not move a further inch toward Russia.

Both pleas were rejected.

It was shortly thereafter in early 2022 that two further factors that would lead to the events we see now occurring in Ukraine transpired. The first was a major escalation in the shelling of Donbass by Ukrainian forces as reported by the OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe ) who had been tasked with monitoring all such activity since the earliest days of the conflict which began in 2014. The second was the discovery of documents indicating that a military operation to take over the villages, towns and cities of the Donbass was planned for the near future.

Things moved fast then as the representatives of the two Russian-speaking republics of the Donbass appealed to Russia for protection. This was granted and formalised by the signing of the requisite documents in Moscow. Shortly thereafter Russia took the decision it had never wished to take, having refused the pleas of the embattled republics in 2014 to be allowed to join the Russian Federation, having worked tirelessly to see the Minsk Agreements come to fruition and done everything possible to maintain peace in the context of all parties, Russia finally bowed to the inevitable, left with no alternative decent option left to it except to await the Ukrainian assault on its brothers and sisters of the Donbass and see Russia’s security further eroded by having a NATO armed nation on its doorstep in perpetuity, it reluctantly left the only option left available to it and sent its troops into Ukraine to intimidate the Ukrainian regime into a quick settlement.

As we have seen however, this was not to be. The western powers insisted that the Ukrainian president and its military elites use all in their power to win the day through violence. And so it has been from that day to this, from those days of late February to now, only days from this unnecessary conflict’s first anniversary. Every step of the way it has been the western political elites who have fostered war rather than dialogue leading to an agreed peace. In Istanbul in March of last year the two sides came close to an agreement, scuppered by Boris Johnson and Joseph Biden who insisted the war must go on for their own interests and aspirations. At that point it was clear they were willing to fight to the last Ukrainian with a goal that was not truly about Ukraine or any of the reasons they gave on that score, the true goal was simply to weaken Russia as it had been from the start long years before.

These are the many reasons why the guilty party in this unnecessary tragedy that is happening to both Russia and Ukraine is so very obvious. That guilty party consists of the leaders of the western nations who have conspired from the very start of their Ukraine project to do whatever they deemed necessary to strengthen their own position and weaken that of Russia. These are the guilty men and women of the West who will never be brought to court for their crimes and who will instead write their memoirs in an effort to justify their crimes against humanity and the seeming endless suffering of the Ukrainian people.

DO WESTERNERS NEED SAVING FROM THEMSELVES?

Most of us will be aware of the psychiatric condition known as the ‘superiority complex’ and also that known as ‘megalomania’. In addition to these two there are conditions such as extreme religious fervour and the many destructive attributes of the various categories of psychopath including that of the socialised psychopath.

These conditions have the obvious candidates for categorisation within the context of their commonly known psychiatric behaviours. But is it possible that some of these conditions are reflected in what is generally thought of as normal, or somewhat normal, behaviour in the western world? I will argue that some of the normalisation process in relation to these conditions has become deeply embedded in western societies by many manner of means and that this is due to a great many subtle and ever-present conditioning factors that have entered the mass western subconscious.

If we look at the historical evidence for western attitudes regarding other peoples it seems to me that this is a rather obvious process that has flowed from the top down to find a place within almost every western mind. The obvious candidates are slavery, colonialism, piracy, plunder, the justifications made for religious conversion and the general elite attitude that the ‘White Man’s Burden’ demands that we teach others how to live like us, believe like us and to adopt our attitudes, ideals and societal and governmental processes.

The first category, that of slavery, had its roots in the need of the settlers on the North American continent for workers. This after the virtual elimination of the native population, or at least the removal of its rights and most of its land. Here we can see some of the facets displayed that reveal attitudes of superior need demanding certain things be done and the justifications inevitably attached to the delivery of those requirements.

The second category demonstrates such proclivities by primarily the white man, that of colonialism. In this case it is even more pronounced. The justifications used were sometimes a profession of good intent being efforts to civilise, improve and ‘bring others up’ to our level of ‘success’ and ‘civilisation’. But however good the intentions of some may have been, as in the case of ‘The British Raj’ in India for example, the initial noble quest can be seen to degenerate over time into the oppressive methods used to control dissent regarding the superiority claimed by the British supervisors and military muscle that bedded itself at the top of Indian society.

The colonial era was arguably begun through piracy in the open seas by gentlemen such as Sir Francis Drake of England who generated vast wealth for the English crown through attacking the cargo ships of Spain at the time when Spain was plundering the civilisations of South America. Later ensued the various wars to become the primary beneficiary of myriad peoples and nations on both the North and South American continents. Britain and France vied with one another for the spoils.

In Africa a great many colonial powers sought to gain footholds. Nations such as Portugal and Belgium along with France and Britain, the Boors of the Netherlands and a host of others who saw the potentiality for gains of many kinds in what were seen as ‘barbaric’ and ‘uncivilised’ peoples within that continent. In their wake came those who personified the third category of ‘superior’ westerners arriving to ‘improve’ what they found in Africa and other nations seen as requiring this fundamental ‘upgrade’. Customs of dress, modes of thinking, beliefs of all kinds, many elements of societal relationships and culture were to be swept away for ‘the greater good’ of dressing, thinking, believing and forming relationships and developing cultures which reflected the ‘better’ western kind.

The political and entrepreneurial business elites seeking wealth, influence, personal and national benefit generated massive funds through all these enterprises and activities with which to fuel their national development. The more the individuals involved succeeded in benefiting themselves the more they benefited their elites at home who in turn were able to develop their societies. In this way initial concepts of western superiority became ever more enhanced and embedded. Along with this process came the affluence which generated a patrician view which felt idealistic to those who had so benefited from the genocide (of the Native Americans), the slavery of millions of Africans, the myriad gains of colonialism and the believed to be civilising effects of religious conversion.

So we arrive at the present day through the many generations since the activities described above. And we arrive with all the most positive aspects of them emphasised in just about every aspect possible and from every quarter, generating, I would argue, a deep subliminal level of conditioning to believe in our own superiority over others that has become almost completely subconscious. We simply ‘feel’ it in almost every fibre of our being. This has erupted at times as overt racism as seen in the generations who suffered from this in North America in particular. But, I suspect if you dare look closely at your own mentality you cannot help but find certain elements and notions of superiority in your own outlook. This I know exists within myself and is an almost inescapable and very likely impossible facet of my being to eliminate. This due to the vast and I would argue all-pervasive and deeply embedded conditioning that derived its power and ubiquity from a desire to cast the very best light on what had been done, counting almost everything related to the past as achievements rather than crimes.

But let us come fully up to the present day and the era of war we have entered. I will argue that notions of exceptionalism in the USA and superiority in the UK, invested to most but not to a totality of extent in their elite superstructure. The notion that we are the crown of creation almost, guided by God, righteous and noble, sensitive, idealistic and desiring to transform lesser beings and societies into some image of ourselves, remains very strong in us. Our relative wealth makes us feel the interventions we make outside of our own national borders are a kind of duty we owe humanity, doing good, expressing the patrician view of lords and ladies toward the unwashed and misguidedly ignorant masses.

In the pursuit of such ‘benefits’ to other peoples, societies and nations there are none so fervent in their desire to do so than those who have taken the name of ‘neoconservatives’. I would argue that these neoconservatives, or neocons as they are often called, are, since 9/11 in the predominant elite positions across the western world. These are the modern day interventionists who stand in place of the sometimes well-intentioned (by their own lights) settlers, slavers, colonialists, outgoing entrepreneurs and missionaries of the past. They have many attitudes in common with those who justified their activities that had such devastating effects on nations other than their own which they conceived the right to intervene in.

Over the past two decades we have seen one violent intervention after another initiated by those who professed that they were ‘doing good’ by such interventions and that they had a vision to bring ‘freedom’ and ‘democracy’ to those who laboured under distinctly inferior conditions to their own. These new missionaries knowing best what was good for others had and still have tremendous zeal and are indeed modern-day zealots for their cause. Mike Pompeo who was for several years President Trump’s Secretary of State is one such example, a born-again evangelical Christian who believes we are in what is called ‘The End Days’ and who awaits the great ‘rapture’ on the re-arrival of Jesus Christ on Earth.

Coming right up to present time we now have confronting us the wars and threat of wars that reveal what I call the ‘End Game War’, the fight to the death, winning or losing all, of those who conceive their way of life is so vastly superior to all others that they would risk the destruction of the entire planet rather than back down and accept the right of other peoples and nations to have their own sovereign evolution. This, as I see it, is what is going on and has been going on in recent times, particularly since the events of 9/11.

Western elites of all kinds have long considered themselves superior. I hope I have demonstrated this sufficiently above. These attitudes have to a great degree also filtered down to the citizens of their nations, particularly so in the cases of the USA and UK, but also in France and other nations that share (even if subconsciously) surviving elements of abiding western myth, ‘The White Man’s Burden’. Western elites, subconsciously or otherwise, quite clearly conceive that they are the true guardians of civilised behaviour, holding as they do what they see as the ‘best’ systems of governance, the ‘best’ forms of societal rules in regard to regulating their societies and so forth. Due to these notions of exceptionalism and superiority and the concomitant desire to do ‘good’ by transforming all people, societies and nations into our mirror-image we in the West share much in common with those who acted in this manner previously for ‘all the best possible reasons’ as seen by them.

In particular, Russia, China, Iran, Syria, Cuba, Nicaragua, Bolivia and essentially all nations not accepting de facto rule by the West, are candidates for proactive intervention, undermining and weakening, the creation of sufficient internal chaos, penury or civil war to effect the goals, both short and long-term of the new high priests demanding change among those they define as inferior, the neoconservatives who have commanded the heights of political power in the West since 9/11. Post 9/11 it was certainly decided by this breed of warriors that no system of governance not corresponding to their needs of safety in perpetuity could be tolerated. Now it was not only personal or state good that was to be used to justify international intervention whether packaged as idealistic pursuits or not, now the until those moments assured superiority of power, of the western world was under threat. Therefore ALL individuals, societies and nations not agreeing to be allied to and dominated by the western powers were to be eliminated.

This is where we are now in my opinion. In a world where one group of nations which has always conceived of itself as ‘top dog’, guardians and warders of our world, global policemen and women, warriors for idealistic concepts regarding human freedoms and rights, see their influence waning. The long-held power to dominate is slipping from the grasp of those who have long conceived themselves to be the rightful judge, jury and executioner when it comes to the lesser mortals of other realms. This is, in my opinion, the overarching motivation for just about all we see occurring now within the war fought on many fronts by the western powers… not only to shore up their waning power base, but to increase and expand it to the level I regard as paralleling what would eventually become a de facto prison planet overseen (for the ‘best possible motives’) by them. This they clearly believe is their rightful place in the world and conceive it to almost be their inalienable right, a benevolent dictatorship in the name of ‘freedom’ and ‘democracy’.

If they succeed I have no doubt we will arrive at the virtual prison planet I mention above, a planet where satellites monitor so much more than even now, where powers exist to strike down at any nascent threat or those perceived as such by the new powers-that-be. Any and all resistance to the domination of the western elites would be quickly snuffed out by one means or another. Surveillance would exist below just as it would from above, citizens will report those who appear to harbour ‘incorrect’ thoughts and who make doubtful relationships with others. The cancel culture of today will be as nothing compared to the tools used to undermine those not conforming to the required ‘norm’ of those future days.

If the USA, UK, EU and Australia, along with Japan and a few others, succeed in their ambitions against virtually all other nations to effect overall success in bringing to a close the ‘End Game War’ in their favour with all “enemy” nations vanquished I would invite you to contemplate how they would manage the resulting ‘peace’. And to ask yourself if it would be a true peace at all or true freedom, or true democracy either. All as a result of a desire to transform others by the West whatever the justifications, the protestations of idealism, posited goodness and well-meaning desires… all of course which have been seen in every case where catastrophe of one kind or another ensued in the past.

These are the reasons why I believe that westerners require to be saved from themselves… and most probably economically and therefore militarily quarantined in order to do so. What is the alternative? A ruined world ravaged by constant war, the end of all hopes of a sustainable peace for any foreseeable future where the zealots of Washington and London’s Whitehall having dispensed with dialogue and diplomacy foment war against their perceived “enemies” everywhere with no limit in mind regarding the level of escalation they are willing to contemplate.

So I ask the question for all our sakes…

 DO WESTERNERS NEED SAVING FROM THEMSELVES?

DO YOU WANT TO LIVE ON A PRISON PLANET?

No matter which way you look at it, the active movement of almost every part of western foreign policy is engaged in an effort to bring down powers that oppose it and replace the systems of governance within those powers. Concurrently the USA has, for two decades and more, sought to create a global surveillance system effected through satellites in geosynchronous orbit.

Have you considered what this will mean for your future and that of your offspring and their families as we move forward? Presumably you have also become aware of cancel culture whereby the previous norms of freedom of speech in the western world have become seriously curtailed. Speaking your mind these days can be a risky business. People are being warned to keep their mouths shut if what they wish to say does not fit the agreed narratives as supplied by state institutions and their  compliant stenographers within mainstream media.

Match these factors with the current ‘war mode’ against both Russia and China and extrapolate these combined factors into the future being assured that once instigated certain modes of behaviour and technologies to effect the expansion of their remit tend only to grow more forceful and all-pervasive over time.

If the coalition of the USA, UK and EU defeat Russia and then China using whatever means they deem necessary and, in light of the protocols clearly agreed upon after 9/11 to take out any and all threats from whichever direction they emanate from I think you will begin to envision the prison planet of which I speak. The concept is not hard to delineate or understand. The goal post 9/11 was not only to eliminate all individuals, groups and modes of governance that in any way opposed the USA or the expansion of western power, it was also to establish a system of surveillance to enable the early spotting of any nascent threats globally.

You see where this is going, don’t you? The political elites of the USA decided that only a virtual prison planet over which they were warders would suit their future needs for total security in the post 9/11 world. Naturally enough, all nations considering themselves in need of the U.S. security umbrella were willing to give 100% support to this goal. Whether somewhat reluctantly (due to so many established human rights norms being undermined) or not, it is clear that all nations in a relationship with the U.S. decided to give this goal their full support until it was met.

The present situation in Ukraine is an integral part of the furtherance of this goal on many levels and displays the degree to which the European powers lend their full support to the USA despite any harm to their economies this may do. The genesis to the seeming madness of escalating toward a potential nuclear conflagration lies in the factors spoken of above. The goal being sought is of such overarching importance to the political elites of the USA and its allies that no Plan B is contemplated. This is an ‘all or nothing’ project. As seen from the western elite point of view if they fail in this endeavour there can be no coming back from such a failure, their level of influence will be catastrophically weakened.

Why is this important for them?

The western powers have held sway for generations, they’ve been top dogs and believe this is their rightful status. They have convinced themselves that only they have the ‘right stuff’, the supreme ability to guide and guard all the nations of our world, and to discipline them whenever necessary. These attitudes stem from many sources including mythologies of exceptionalism and superiority, sometimes expressed as ‘The White Man’s Burden’. These myths have been embedded so deeply and been believed in for so long within the U.S. and UK cultures particularly that they are no longer seriously questioned at an elite level. 

In the USA the mythology underpinning exceptionalism is particularly strong emanating from the history of those oppressed pilgrims who arrived on North American shore and founded the “perfect” political and moral backdrop which many others in later years believed in so much they considered it was their ‘duty’ to bring their benefits to all others across the globe. In Britain the British Empire, was underpinned by a similar belief in the general superiority of the british over inferior cultures, nations and forms of governance.

With all targeted individual, nations, leaders and forms of government not conforming with western requirements there will remain one significant problem, the possibility that forms of behaviour and modes of thought will arise that could potentially threaten the “perfect” world they had fought so hard to create. It is certain that a vast number of the defeated would not agree at all that all was now perfect within a perfect world with all their previous leaders and institutions replaced, so the need to keep an eye on such people and seek to eliminate them to stop them gaining any vestige of power if left to their own devices would be strong.

A global police state ethos would inevitably emerge with propaganda used as a means of telegraphing the fear of the elites into populations and the assisting in the necessity of creating a citizen-reporting culture far outdoing the present cancel culture. Strict controls on speech and media would accompany such measures. And every channel of communication or action would be monitored at as great a depth as possible that would far outdo the considerable powers that the NSA now have.

You get the picture I am sure.

Currently the goal has its emphasis in weakening Russia with a view to undermining and replacing its present form of governance.Then China and concurrently all other nations that do not conform with western requirements. Those others you will already know something of concerning western attempts to undermine them: Iran, Syria, Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, Nicaragua and a number of others. Each one of these, led by China and Russia represent incalcitrant nations requiring extreme modification and replacement of their systems of governance by whatever means are deemed most effective by the USA and its allies.

A multipolar world where there is a general tolerance for most if not all modes of government and where trade, cultural exchange, economic and financial agreement replace enmity and where sovereignty is sacrosanct free from outside attempts to undermine national modes of being protected by the tenets of the United Nations is unacceptable to the USA and its allies. They have anointed themselves as world’s managers, and since 9/11, its warders. They provide themselves with the ‘right’ to override the sovereignty of others, to flout international law as they see fit and to dominate each and every aspect of others’ lives in their interests, including the right to threaten, sanction, subvert and violently attack any nation as they see fit according to their needs.

These are the aspects that should inform every one of us regarding why it is so very vital that neither Russia nor China be undermined, defeated, weakened or otherwise limited in their ability to lead all nations wishing to retain their freedom and sovereignty. Should they fall then I am confident that you can clearly perceive what will then follow… the inevitable establishment of a virtual prison planet from which the western powers will then ensure there is no possible escape. 

THE WESTERN WORLD - AN UTTERLY MALIGNANT EMPIRE OF LIES

How long will the entire western elite refuse to acknowledge their crucial role in driving Russia into the corner from which it reluctantly sprang on February 24th last year?

For almost nine years Russia put faith in the sincerity of successive Ukrainian governments and the representatives of both Germany and France, that they genuinely were working toward the autonomy promised for the Russian-speaking population of eastern Ukraine.

There was no willingness to sit down with Russia to thrash out a new security architecture for Europe that included Russian concerns. There was an equal unwillingness to contemplate NATO withdrawing from Russia's borders or ending the commitment to take both Ukraine and Georgia into NATO.

And all this while the civilian populations of the Donbass region were being bombarded by the Ukrainian military and Ukraine's militant extremist forces. Over 15,000 died over the almost nine year period. While all this was going on, scarcely reported at all except in vague terms that newscasters clearly hoped would convey the idea that it was all Russia's fault... Zelensky stated that he wished to regain Ukraine's nuclear status.

Further, the OSCE saw and reported a sharp uptick in the bombardment of the Donbass villages, towns and cities from the Ukrainian side in January and early February of last year. Russia has exhausted all the good options open to it and faced a Ukraine constantly building its military forces and becoming a de fact NATO member. With Ukraine finally stating it no longer had any interest in the Minsk Accords, i.e. that it had been a scam from the start and that it saw no peaceful path before it.

What was Russia to do...simply wait for the military assault that was clearly coming on the people of the Donbass? This it could not do. And it must be suspected this was the western powers' plan all along. The 'Empire of Lies' has got its way. But things are NOT going its way and it will be made to bitterly regret its terminally cynical Machiavellian plan.

Nightly we hear the tone-deaf and terminally myopic narratives being spun, cynically spreading one lie after another to demonise Russia and escape the responsibility western elites bear.

Looking back we can now see exactly why the fact of civilian deaths in their thousands were hidden from western populations, or, if not completely hidden, hiding their cause, the malignant actions of the Ukrainian forces directed by successive evil Ukrainian regimes.

The lies are told by tame academics within newsrooms whose editors and producers have prostituted themselves to the single narratives and talking points which they know they must stick to if they wish to keep their jobs. Only one-side must be constantly and unwaveringly told concerning Ukraine. The Russian “devils” must be made to look as evil as possible. As in Syria it must be said that they target schools, civilian dwellings, hospitals, museums and whatever else will make a good demonising headline or sound byte. Lies, lies and ever more lies.

No mention is to be made of the Ukrainian forces setting up their bases and weaponry in schools and hospital blocks, nothing is to be said about the notices put on each door stating that those inside must vacate their homes immediately if the Ukrainian army needs them to fire from. Nothing is said about those wearing swastika tattoos, nothing about the copies of ‘Mein Kampf’ they read or the daubings of swastikas on every gravestone in Jewish cemeteries. Media mouths must remain shut regarding the torture, rape and murder perpetrated by the Ukrainian militias. All must be hidden from view. The genocidal intent of the ultra-nationalists who despise all who speak Russian, whether they live within Ukraine or not and whose attitude is that they should all die or be driven out, babies, children, mothers, fathers or grandparents, all candidates for elimination for the glory of Ukraine.

All must be whitewashed to aid the rabid hatred of only one side in this conflict, the side that was pushed into the narrowest corner imaginable, told to shut up, forget all concerns about your security and simply obey every directive from the West. Even when Russia told the republics they must stay within Ukraine and work toward gaining autonomy and working for eight years to achieve this only to be told it was all only a ploy to give Ukraine time to re-arm… Russia was supposed to stand for this. With deaths reported each day among the civilian population of eastern Ukraine, deaths that continue to this day, STILL unreported anywhere in the West.

If you live anywhere in the western world or in one of the nations whose political and media elites have sold their souls to the political elites of the USA, UK and EU… please recognise the truth, awaken from the conditioning that comes at you daily from every mainstream media source and know precisely and exactly now where you live, within an utterly malignant Empire of Lies.

WESTERN LEADERS ARE DETERMINED TO SPLIT OUR WORLD IN TWO

The following commentary was written and first posted on the 17th of October 2020. Within it the prediction is made that we would again begin to hear the phrase 'The Free World'. We are now hearing this said in both the USA and Poland in particular and we can expect  it to become a mantra repeated ever more frequently in future months and years. The political leadership of the West have once again pronounced themselves the supreme judges of the rest of us and will clearly not be content until they are our permanent warders wielding their power on what will have become a virtual prison planet enforce their will to insist upon our obedience to their rule or risk being destroyed if and when we resist.

BIDEN HIS TIME It is beginning to look like the predictions of a Biden landslide in November will be fulfilled. So, what will an ‘Uncle Joe’ presidency look like? Hard or soft power? There will be undoubted relief among millions of North Americans if the Trump era is finally seen to be over and the ‘anyone but Trump’ man enters the White House. That being accomplished what are we likely to see from a Biden administration, what will its agenda be? ‘Uncle Joe’ has always been a political bruiser and very often in his career within the Democratic Party he has been atypical when compared to his colleagues, often veering to the far right in his ‘hang ‘em high’ rhetoric on law and order and his gung-ho attitude toward regime change wars including that against Iraq. Biden has aready telegraphed that his targets will include so-called ‘authoritarian’ regimes. He has already singled out Russia and Cuba as targets and we can safely include many more within this category as defined by himself, the liberal fraternity and the majority of Democratic Party supporters. China, Iran, Syria, Venezuela, Nicaragua... in fact the same list as Mike Pompeo outlines at every opportunity. So what will be the main difference between Biden’s time and Trump’s? It is clear to me that the main difference will be in circling the wagons of what are always referred to as the USA’s allies in “The Free World”. We will hear no more criticisms of those allies, no more criticisms at all. NATO and those allies will be sacrosanct, as is the scared creed of western goodness, rightness and honor, of never knowingly doing wrong and being the eternal bastion of freedom, democracy and the 'right’ values as opposed to all others who are inherently bad by comparison. This will be the dualist Bush doctrine re-imagined and strengthened. If you are not good you are bad. If you are not with us you are against us. We are the standard, the ideal, that which you must be compared to in all things. And if you deign to contradict any of this you are a traitor to freedom, democracy and a danger to all right-thinking people. You may have seen that I use the word 'right’ a lot. Though the Democrats are still to some degree associated with the left, this has hardly been more than a convenient facade to engender some mirage of difference from the Republicans. The Democrats are not of the left and have not truly ever been of the left. They are of the elite. They are, as Noam Chomsky has said many times, merely one of the two factions of 'The Business Party’. And the business world needs war. Division, conflict and war are supremely good for business. Not only in terms of corporate profits, also for political business. How many times have wars boosted flagging political fortunes? Maggie Thatcher for instance, well down in the polls and looking at almost certain defeat at the polls was saved by the Falklands War. Bill Clinton found destroying a milk warehouse in Libya reportedly killing one of Gaddafi’s nieces was very good for his approval rating. George W. Bush gained his two terms mostly due to the illegal attack upon and invasion of Iraq post 9/11.

The Democrats have moved to the right and well past the Republicans when it comes to representing the hawks and neocons of the far right. No one remotely interested in American politics could have missed the parade of Bush-era warmongers at the recent Democratic fanfare event. Or their boast regarding how many security state officials have pledged their support for them. They are not even trying to hide the fact of their shift to the far right on foreign policy. They WANT Americans to hear it. They seem to believe (wrongly) that Americans find such breast-beating aggression toward foreign “foes” seductive. Despite this being contrary to what polling suggests they are likely to be rewarded with a big win in November anyway. War, a world war, becomes much more likely with a win by Biden in November. His bellicose attitudes of the past are being kept somewhat in check while his benign persona is kept to the fore currently... but just wait a few months and we will see the real Joe. The real Joe is an extremely hard and hardened political strongman. His attitudes are belligerent and adversarial. He will create an even more wicked series of adversaries than Trump has. They will be irredeemably bad. He will echo people like the harridan Nicky Haley who railed against the evil Russian officers in Syria who woke each morning wondering how many school children and hospital patients they could kill that day. The Nazi technique of generalized demonization of a people will be seen to continue under Biden I predict. His solution will be a resolute no to any suggestion of dialogue, diplomacy or detente. He will argue that only the submission of these 'authoritarian’ regimes to the demands of the West and nothing else, will do. Are you ready for a permanent division of our world into absolutist right and wrong, the always good and always evil, the sincere and the devious, the always to be trusted and never to be trusted? If you are indeed ready then you will welcome Biden’s time. If not, be ready to be silent, or to be condemned. Meanwhile... he's just 'Biden His Time'.

THE CYNICAL PR LIARS OF THE UKRAINIAN REGIME & ITS WESTERN SPONSORS

There has never been such a dishonest and corrupt regime as that of Ukraine since the insurrection there in 2014. The flow of lies from it have been unceasing from that time until the present day, all faithfully communicated as Biblical truths by every news broadcaster within western mass media.

This situation is underpinned by a myopic devotion to the illegal dictatorship exemplified by Vladimir Zelensky, the so-called president of Ukraine, the PR king of the country with a big mouth constantly full of the most loathsome lies. In combination with those who pull his strings this puppet “king” has brought us all to the brink of nuclear annihilation.

Zelensky was hoisted from near obscurity as a half-baked comic actor by one of Ukraine’s most infamous oligarchs by the name of Kolomoisky, a man who would be in jail if not for the West’s need for his protege to do their dirty work for them. That dirty work is to pave the way for the combined political elite of the West attaining their goal of making a prison planet of our world with them as its warders in perpetuity.

Ukraine and the Ukrainian people are mere disposable tools in the project of the western power-junkies who cannot bear the thought of losing the power and influence that they have wielded for centuries. The thought of losing their grip on our world has driven them to lose any semblance of integrity and has brought about their total degradation in what has become an ‘Empire of Lies’.

This western elite requirement, to shore up their waning power then boost it to a permanent, dictatorial status is the underlying factor behind the endless waterfall of lies that emanate not only from Zelensky but from every elite western mouthpiece in existence. The entirety of western mainstream media has fallen into line with the ‘war mode’, self-seeking stance of its political masters. They lie just as their political puppeteers lie. Just as Zelensky and his minions lie. A composite choir of liars all singing from the very same hymn sheet.

The true depths of the cynicism involved cannot be plumbed such is its all-pervasive nature. Those who condemned regimes of the past as propagandisers now shamelessly propagandise and condition their own populations mercilessly. Each radio and television across the entirety of the western world provides services that would have been the pride of the Soviet Union or present day North Korea. Only one side of any geopolitical issue is provided, enforced and reinforced across every news bulletin and every talking head invited to reinforce each lie transferred to the brain of every listener or viewer.

The comparisons with George Orwell’s novel, ‘1984’ are obvious and becoming more obvious by the day to those not completely oblivious and already fully brainwashed into subservience to the message. Each talking point is honed to perfection and repeated endlessly to reinforce the selected lie in service of demonising the “enemy”. Perpetual war is the goal as in ‘1984’ and all history must be made to mirror current requirements. The people must be brought to a state of perpetual fear and hatred of the chosen “enemy” and driven to only demand one thing, that ‘something must be done’, thus manufacturing the consent required to allow their elites to do as they wish. And that wish is to perpetuate war, death and destruction in the furtherance of their aims and goals.

The Sheeple are to be shepherded to provide their consent to be herded into the particular abattoir of the mind selected for them, brought to levels of abject distraction by a series of modern day versions of Rome’s ‘bread and circuses’, dumbed down to bovine levels of submissiveness and thus totally neutered and made safe from making an active stance against those so cruelly destroying their individuality and intelligence. Any lie will do if it contains the merest iota of fact within it, believable lies in other words… and always and ever ‘Fear Is The Key’.

The Nazis knew these techniques of mind control very well. Keep the populace in a state of fear and devotion to elites who would save them from the “enemy” that wishes to harm them. By manipulating the people and delivering them to the place they wanted them by every trick of psychology possible, you can make them malleable, putty in your hands to mould and shape. Zelensky is their selected puppet for this time, moulded and shepherded himself by a hundred public relations companies and of course by those who hold his strings from the highest offices of every western land.

The western world in the context of its political and media elites is a world of lies, all inextricably linked and constantly reinforced. Lies to maintain the hate, lies to maintain the fear and lies to confuse, manipulate and blind. Lies that degrade every aspect of intelligent perception of reality concerning the wider world, bounding the awareness of everyone within the sphere of containment where reality is only what you are told to believe and nothing more. This is the fact of western life in these deadly dark days while western leaders attempt to win their permanent status as warders of a newly created prison planet where no thought, word or action escapes their notice, where they can strike down and punish any sign of non-conformance to their needs. A world of lies where all but the elites must keep their mouths and minds firmly shut.
