Posts that I especially recommend for Monday, February 28, 2022

  • The CIA: 70 Years in Ukraine from Internationalist 360°. (Note: The text serves as an introduction to three videos by Douglas Valentine.) My reaction: The highly secretive CIA serves the real fascist policies and values of the de-facto US, British, Zionist Empire desperately trying to hold and expand their capitalist empire for the domination of capitalism all over the world. Valentine, after 30 years of study, exposes this highly secretive agency of the ruling class.
  • 💥"Divide and conquer strategies are on full display in the nations of the de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire, a transnational capitalist empire" by Ron Horn for this weblog.
The media corporations continue to crank out their daily doses of propaganda to divide the people into two groups: worthy and unworthy people ("deplorables").
 
Remember that the Empire's most successful weapon is deception. The great recent success of the Empire is to portray in its propaganda of "news" TV programs is that the "deplorables" are not like us "good people" of the Empire. The "deplorables" consist of ignorant, uneducated, worthless, and unvaccinated people, whereas the "good people" are obedient, trustful of authorities, and vaccinated. This appeals to the self-serving instincts of the "good people".
 
The "good" people see themselves as worthy of special respect, and they benefit from their support of powerful authorities which makes them good people. This is very much like the German Nazis of the 1930s and their racist disparagement of Jews. (All Jews were blamed by media corporations for the Russian Revolution of 1917 because the leaders were mostly Jewish people.) This is similar to what the capitalist Empire's ruling class now describes as "deplorables" or worthless people. The "good" and obedient people can ignore everything that is said or written by the "deplorables" and their supporters. Thus, extreme measures like mandates, vaccination passports, and denying basic human rights to the "deplorables" are completely justified. 
  • ‘Russian Propaganda’ Is The Latest Excuse To Expand Censorship by Australian Caitlin Johnstone with her American husband, Tim Foley, also reading the script (08:11), but you may miss supporting examples, illustrations, etc.)--from her weblog. My reaction: The censorship practiced by the ruling class is exposed in an attempt to ban any other interpretation of the Russian invasion of Ukraine than theirs.
  • Read Real Experts. by Andrei Martyanov from his weblog Reminiscence of the Future.... (Note: The text serves as an introduction to a Chilean's view (18:51) of the propaganda spread by US media corporations and Martyanov's remarks about propaganda posing as information.)
  • Monday~War: Empire Continues Its Mad Dash Towards Doom by John Allen from his weblog on Substack. (Note: Because Allen was de-listed from Medium in December, he now writes a weblog on Substack. I've had trouble posting most of these articles because I was not notified by Substack of them. I've since fixed this, I think, but only time will tell. I don't normally re-post articles that are more than a month old, but I will be posting some of his still relevant articles that I've missed during this time period--you need to pay attention to the dates of each one.) 
  • 💥"The de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire prepares for a guerrilla war in Ukraine" by Ron Horn for this weblog. (Note: I post all articles and most commentaries written by myself as "best posts" to inform you of my opinions and analysis.)
If only 10% of the recent postings by Internationalist 360° are correct (see this and this), the de-facto Empire is preparing for a guerrilla war in Ukraine to sap the Russian Federation and exhaust its nation in a long-term war of attrition much like happened in Afghanistan during the 1980s. Remember the allied efforts to implement "stay-behind forces" of Operation Gladio after WWII? This together with the strengthening of neo-Nazi forces in Ukraine by the Empire has at least a chance of success.  The success of this strategy will mostly depend on the efforts by Russia to de-Nazify Ukraine and rid Ukraine of these Nazi vermin that the capitalist Empire supports.
Not wanting to sound hyperbolic, but I am starting to conclude that the nuclear madmen running the U.S./NATO New Cold War they started decades ago are itching to start a nuclear war with Russia. Their hypocrisy and nihilistic thirst for death and destruction are so extreme that it boggles my mind. They accuse Russia of starting a New Cold War when they did so decades ago and have been pushing the envelope ever since. Now they act shocked that Russia, after many years of patience, has struck back in Ukraine.
 
My reaction: The ruling class of the de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire are not mad, they are only trying to defeat any threats to their world dominance. Russia and China (and a few other states) merely want to preserve their independence from the control of the Empire. Preserving their dominance of the world and their empire is all that they are concerned about.
Because Becker has far more knowledge of the historical background of Ukraine than Martin has, this discussion became an interview conducted by Martin with Becker. My reaction: Becker, in particular, has an encyclopedic and accurate knowledge of the history of this conflict since WWII, but he is constrained by the host interviewer from revealing his full Marxist and socialist views until nearly the end. 
 
I don't agree with Martin's attitude that war is a criminal enterprise--that both sides are at fault. However, Becker, in his attempt to not disagree with her, tries to go along with her conception of superficial leaders instead of the reality of ruling capitalist classes that are determined to damage Russia and stop both Russia and European economies to connect with each other. If this would occur, the Empire will be finished. 
 
This is what I have against most interviews: the attitude that we won't or can't disagree with the host interviewer or interviewee. The real knowledgeable and suppressed real left of the US is grateful for any media access to their fellow countrymen that they will go to extreme lengths to not antagonize the hosts of these programs.
  • UK Commanders in Ukraine Met Neo-Nazi National Guard to “Deepen Military Cooperation” by Matt Kennard from Internationalist 360°. My reaction: Although the Ukrainian government has features of a legitimate government, the highly secretive agencies of the de-facto US/British/Zionist Empire maintained ties with the fascist core of the Ukrainian society. Although Kennard, from his experience, tells the story of highly secretive British ties to this core, these connections remain true for the secretive agencies of  the other components of the Empire--that of the US and Zionist Israel.
  • The Land Where History Died, Part 1 by David Stockman from The Unz Review. My reaction: Although Stockman is not an anti-capitalist, he is knowledgeable about history and he can't accept the propaganda stories put out by media corporations.
