For Once, (Some) Americans Should Shutup And Stop Calling Putin A Madman: You Polishing The Bombs Of War. Again

You are pushing for a nuclear war, and we did not sign-up for it.

I am not American, so I have no business meddling in the domestic politics of America.

But this is not domestic politics. This is GeoPolitics at its finest.

Maybe Americans will listen to another American. I hope Jessica Wildfire will not mind me tagging her in on this story.

Her two latest stories, Vladimir Putin, Has Already Won, but Nobody Wants to Admit It, and Americans Are Living Vicariously Through Ukraine, is required reading for every American.

After following her for a while, her latest stories would have made me sit up straight if I were an American.

Here are some truth bombs, documented in peer-reviewed history, to help challenge this madman narrative.

Let me introduce you to Michael McFaul, the Twitter Hero. The American version of Baghdad Bob

His Twitter handle is @McFaul. He was the US ambassador to Russia from 2012 to 2014. This was incidentally the period that US-Russian relations went backward. I wonder why?

Let me get back to Baghdad Bob. Or Baghdad ( Washington DC ) Bob. Or B-DC-Bob for short. He was also part of the brains behind the no-weapons-of-mass-destruction invasion of IRAQ. He never talks about this on Twitter.

In fact, on Twitter, people often ask him, Bob?, we are aware of the suffering of the Ukrainian people. We feel it. It is happening all over the world on a daily basis.

Tell us why you pushed for the invasion of IRAQ, the thousands of crimes in Vietnam(Agent Orange), Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yugoslavia, Somalia, and the list goes on and on.

What do B-DC-BOB and his helpers reply on Twitter?

Bob has already admitted the mistakes he made in the past. How many times must he say his sorry?

Are you freakin kidding me? Sorry? That's it?

This man is dangerous. He is always one tweet away from announcing WWIII without even being the president of any country. If I were an American, I would watch him closely as 2024 draws closer.

This Baghdad Bob section took a bit long. Ain't Nobody has time for long history truth bombs or history articles or history books or wannabe-diplomat-historians.

So let's rattle it off. Rattle it off in true AK47 or AR-15 style.

Eisenhower and the Soviets, 1945–1947

When WWII ended, Eisenhower was the most famous and most popular leader in the US. Washington DC gradually transformed the Soviet Union from ally to mortal enemy, while Eisenhower spoke about friendship and cooperation between the two superpowers.

Then, Eisenhower, the enigma started to reveal itself. If you scrutinize his discourse, there is a striking disparity between his public and private words. His private words were closer to the emerging COLD WAR consensus.

When Eisenhower brought his private discourse to the White House, problems started. He could now transform the discourse of the American people.

As president, he could instill this pattern so successfully because his rhetoric effectively masked and denied the contradiction. When he spoke of peace, he blended Augustinian “realism” and Wilsonian “idealism,” as if the two traditions held the same kind of “peace” as their goal.

By eliding the differences between them, he made it seem perfectly logical to pursue world peace while waging the Cold War. — Pofessor Ira Chernus

We all read different history books and historians are famous for telling their own stories.

I am convinced Putin also did his fair share of reading on what happened. Eisenhower's meticulous study of the Truman Doctrine and how it could affect his presidency. Eisenhower's justifiable concern of Stalin and what he was capable of.

An opportunity lost.

NATO'S Operation Gladio

You will not find much literature on this topic. NATO does not want you to know about this. It is very important literature to understand the political, social, and military history of Western Europe and the United States.

Lest I accidentally throw myself off the fifth floor of some building, I will rattle off some keywords and leave the further reading to you, the reader. It's out there, and it makes for some interesting reading.

It all starts with one single document from the Italian military secret service SIFAR, dated June 1, 1959, entitled 'The special forces of SIFAR and Operation Gladio.' This document proved that a CIA- and NATO-linked secret army code-named Gladio had existed in Italy during the Cold War.

Operation Gladio was exposed in 1990. Then all hell broke loose. It turned out ALL 16 NATO countries ran similar operations against the Soviet Union.

Let's rattle them off quickly.

A terrorist attack in Italy. A scandal shocks Western Europe. The silence of NATO, CIA, and MI6. The secret war in Great Britain. The secret war in the United States. The secret war in Italy. The secret war in France. The secret war in Spain. The secret war in Portugal. The secret war in Belgium. The secret war in the Netherlands. The secret war in Luxemburg. The secret war in Denmark. The secret war in Norway. The secret war in Germany. The secret war in Greece. The secret war in Turkey.

It's out there! Find them quickly and spread the word before they call you a mad person!

Here’s a hint. You can log on to a library in any “shithole” country and they will gladly give you three e-books on loan that uncovers those secrets.

Good luck and please don’t accidentally throw yourself from the fifth floor?

Bloodlands of Europe Between Hitler And Stalin

This is a book by Timothy Snyder. All credit goes to him. This is a difficult book to read, as are all books on the subject. It is an important subject to understand both sides, NATO on the one side and the Soviets on the other.

Let's not linger too long and rattle it off.

In the middle of Europe in the middle of the twentieth century, the Nazi and Soviet regimes murdered some fourteen million people. The place where all of the victims died, the bloodlands, extends from central Poland to western Russia, through Ukraine, Belarus, and the Baltic States.

The Holocaust overshadows German plans that envisioned even more killing. Hitler wanted to eradicate the Jews and destroy Poland and the Soviet Union as states, exterminate their ruling classes, and kill tens of millions of Slavs (Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Poles).

If the German war against the USSR had gone as planned, thirty million civilians would have been starved in its first winter, and tens of millions more were expelled, killed, assimilated, or enslaved.

Though these plans were never realized, they supplied the moral premises of German occupation policy in the East.

The Germans murdered about as many non-Jews as Jews during the war, chiefly by starving Soviet prisoners of war (more than three million) and residents of besieged cities (more than a million) or by shooting civilians in "reprisals" (the better part of a million, chiefly Belarusians and Poles).

God, I can't write any more of this.

Hitler was a monster. Stalin was a monster.

But we know this. Putin knows this.

You don't have to be a mad person to know this.

Did NATO screw Putin?

The Soviet Union was the creator of The Warsaw Pact. It was founded in Warsaw, Poland. The Soviets called it The Warsaw Treaty Organization, but it was officially called, The Treaty of Friendship, Cooperation, and Mutual Assistance.

This name sounded suspiciously friendly for the USA, so they suggested creating a similar organization called North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO).

NATO's first motto was "to keep the Russians out, the Americans in, and the Germans down." I don't know how the first Secretary-General of NATO, Lord Ismay, saw Russia in this equation, but there it is.

Let's rattle off some more history bombs.

In 1991, after the fall of the Iron Curtain, NATO and Russia started to develop the first reluctant relations. The emphasis on reluctance. The Russian President, Boris Yeltsin, suggested that Russia might even become a member of NATO.

In 1993, NATO wanted to expand its already enormous offensive powers. God knows why. Russia accepted on condition that there would be no deployment of nuclear weapons or allied combat forces on the territory of new member states.

Russia joined the NATO, Partnership for Peace Program. In 1997, the Permanent Joint Council was founded with Russia tasked with overseeing peace in the Euro-Atlantic Area. The Founding Act was signed to discuss security concerns regularly.

Russia was valuable during the Kosovo conflict when Russian and NATO soldiers fought side by side to restore peace as they did in Afghanistan.

In 2002, the NATO-Russia Council was established, allowing Russia equal partnership with the other 27 members of NATO.

The ministers of the two friends met twice a year, and the ambassadors met monthly. Everything was good.

Russia, Germany, and France opposed the war in IRAQ ( remember Baghdad-DC-Bob?). They managed to get the UN to pass a resolution that prohibited the use of military force against Saddam Hussein. We all know what happened then.

The UN is a protector of the people of the world. NATO? I have no freakin clue who they are protecting if they are even not listening to Germany and France. Forget about Russia, but Germany and France?

Can you believe it? Russia warned NATO not to use force in the Civil War Of The Federal Republic Of Yugoslavia without first getting authorization from the UN. NATO went ahead, showed its middle finger to the UN, and intervened with military force in the civil war of a sovereign country. This was in 1998. NATO called it "limited airstrikes" and "phased air campaign." What the hell does that even mean?

That's the UN. That's us. That's the rest of the GLOBE. They just showed their middle finger. For God's sake?

By the way, the same thing happened in Bosnia in 1995. NATO operated with airstrikes while Russia participated in IFOR, a multinational peacekeeping force that sent troops into Bosnia.

On September 11, President Bush met Putin, and they agreed Russia would assist the USA in Afghanistan.

The Georgia conflict in 2008, also called the war of South Ossetia. The real war only lasted five days. The conflict began with Ossetian separatists, who started bombing Georgian villages. Georgia launched a military offensive in response.

Russia's role in this conflict was sending army and air troops to support Ossetia. All sides, Russia, Georgia, and South Ossetia, were accused of war crimes by the Human Rights Watch. Russia was blamed for invading a sovereign state and threatening democracy.

The list goes on and on. There are no angels on either side. The history is well documented. It is energy sapping stuff to read all the details.

The question is. What gives any side the right to call the other side a Madman?

What are you trying to do? Do you think we five-year-olds? Why are you trying to feed us bullshit? Do you think we can't read?

Final thoughts.

Let's assume somebody assassinates Putin as per the command of the angelical Linsay Graham, the Senator from the USA. What could go wrong after that?

Well, have you read "Unrestricted Warfare China's Master Plan to Destroy America "? Could it be true? Possible?

How about the link between Fascism and Dictatorship?

How about the rise of Populism?

How about "The New Faces of Fascism, Populism, and the Far Right"?

Or "Cultural Backlash Trump, Brexit, and Authoritarian Populism"

Or "Brexit, President Trump, and the Changing Geopolitics of Eastern Europe"

I have so many questions. How about you?

I do have one prediction. Donald Trump will be elected as President of the USA in 2024. All the answers can be found in the previous few sentences.

Let's ALL pray together now.

PEACE.
