The Plot Behind the Curtain
QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong, I’ve a severe query for you. Do you assume that Putin was lured into this mess be folks making an attempt to alter the world? I’ll depart it at that.

ANSWER: Sure. I can’t consider that Harris’ off-the-cuff assertion on the Munich Safety Assembly that Ukraine ought to be part of NATO was merely a silly mistake on her half. She isn’t the brightest bulb in DC, however I consider IF this was a mistake, the White Home would have immediately recharacterized what she mentioned to ensure Putin wouldn’t take it that they had been advocating violating the Belgrade Settlement the place Ukraine was to stays impartial. Primarily based on why I do know, she isn’t even acquainted with maps. I consider she was “dealt with” and informed to advocate that by somebody there who deliberately needed to begin this battle. Each Harris and Biden will easy say what they’re informed and I worry the Neocons have taken over the White Home.
There isn’t any NATIONAL SECURITY curiosity for the USA in Ukraine. Everybody simply chooses sides, however no one asks the query why ought to all the world go to conflict, which can flip nuclear, over Ukraine? The US isn’t even strategically threatened if Putin took all of Ukraine. AMerican are silly and assume that is some online game and so they can watch the US beat Putin like that is Monday evening soccer. This time there are nuclear weapons and a Russian Stealth Sub can floor simply miles offshow and launch towards 160 targets in a matter of minutes. EVERY Administration has at all times sought peace UNTIL now! So go forward and cheer for the destruction of Putin. Simply be very cautious for what you with for. Struggle simulations with China have additionally warned that American can lose and really quick.
Biden retains claiming that Russia is dropping. It mentioned the launch of its hypersonic missile in Ukraine over the weekend was an indication of desperation relatively than testing the weapon actual time. He then threatened China that in the event that they supported Putin, they might endure the identical sanctions. Biden then says that Putin’s might launch cyberattacks towards the US and use chemical weapons in Ukraine subsequent as a result of his “again is towards the wall.” If that is true, why not attempt to clam issues down? We have now solely cheerleaders for conflict. All of this as a result of Ukraine refused to let the Donbas be impartial in a democratic course of? You don’t push Putin towards the wall after which declare he’s a madman. If Putin was actually a madman, he would nuke Ukraine after which what? There’s an supposed agenda right here and it scent like intentional conflict.
It stays questionable why Putin is holding again. He has the facility station and will flip off the facility, however he has not. Stories maintain saying the Russians are stalled about 15 miles from Kyiv. Poland has put its forces on alert as Russian and Belarusian forces are more likely to deploy on the Polish-Ukrainian border to shut all cargo routes to Kyiv. That’s the typical siege technique which tends to suggest he need a give up relatively than to flatten Kyiv.
Putin, I consider, was lured into his invasion realizing his chief grievance has been the fixed eastward motion of NATO. That doesn’t make him a sufferer. There aren’t any good guys. Each side combat for their very own self-interest exactly as in economics – i.e. Adam Smith’s Invisible Hand. What he didn’t anticipate was this onslaught assault towards all Russians and the sanctions which have successfully lower off Russia from the West. That is supposed to place a lot strain on Russia that they storm the Kremlin and behead him or some drastic occasion of that nature.
Lindsey Graham has gone means too far even for a Neocon calling for the assassination of Putin. He higher begin watching his personal ass for my part for as they are saying what goes round comes round. I’m positive there are Russians within the USA undercover. Worse nonetheless, when you had been China and also you simply watched what the West has finished to Russia, you’ll be smart by no means to belief doing enterprise with the West once more. You definitely would depend your fingers after shaking fingers realizing that they might shortly do the identical to you.
Then for the Ukrainian Intelligence to place out a narrative claiming there’s a Russian group of Russian elites had been allegedly conspiring to overthrow Putin and “restore financial ties” with the West. They’re posting this on Fb put up from the Chief Directorate of Intelligence for the Ministry of Protection of Ukraine. Clearly, that is pure propaganda for if this had been true, they might not warn Putin. As a substitute, they’re placing out disinformation hoping somebody will consider it and assume they are going to be a hero. They’re even placing out the title Alexander Bortnikov, the Russian Director of the Federal Safety Service, will develop into his successor to the president. It’s extremely unlikely that they would favor Bortnikov.
Again in a December 2017, an open letter revealed by Kommersant, the place greater than 30 Russian lecturers criticized Bortnikov for trying to legitimize the Stalin’s Nice Purge. He could be way more aggressive than Putin. So it appears to be disinformation in hopes that Putin would consider it and get rid of Bortnikov clearing the way in which for his or her true desired goal to go Russia.
Ah! The Video games folks play!
Assume Twice if not 3 times earlier than you simply CHEER for the defeat of Russia.
There isn’t any retreat in Putin’s thoughts and eliminating him will solely verify to all Russians that the West is to not be TRUSTED.
Is that this the long run you really need in your kids and grandchildren?
