Now Russia has announced that Nord Stream-2... is
not damaged on one string... let's get back on the
streets, like the Czechs - who stand up to stop
the West's pro-war elites - forcing us into gas
prices way too high for the majority to pay.
- nil desperandum - le Diable est Mort !
Henry L. Stimson, US Secretary of War:
“History knows no greater display of courage
than that shown by the people of Soviet Russia”
Evo Morales:
“NATO is, ultimately, the United States. It is not a
guarantor for humanity or for life. I do not accept
in fact I condemn, how they can exclude Russia
from the UN Human Rights Council, when the
US has intervened in Iraq and in Libya, in so
many countries, in recent years. Why have
they, not been expelled from the Human
Rights Council? Why was that
never questioned?”
Nina Simone:
''Slavery has never been abolished
from America’s way of thinking.''
Alexander Lebed:
"I never consider 'ifs' and 'buts.'
If grandma had a beard,
she'd be grandpa."
Thomas Jefferson:
“If the American people... ever allow private banks to
control the issue of their currency - first by inflation,
then by deflation, the banks will deprive the people
of all property --- until their children wake up
homeless on the continent their fathers
conquered. The issuing power should
be taken from the banks and
restored to the people, to
whom it properly
belongs.”
Old Proverb:
''Lies spread with the wind ... but
Truth can travel against the wind.''
Harold Wilson:
''He who rejects change, is the architect of
decay. The only human institution which
rejects progress, is the cemetery.''
James Madison Jr.:
''A standing military force, with an overgrown Executive
will not long be safe companions to liberty. The means
of defence against foreign danger, have been always
the instruments - of tyranny at home. Among the
Romans, it was a standing maxim to excite a
war - whenever a revolt was apprehended.
Throughout all Europe, the armies [were]
kept up; under the pretext of defending,
have enslaved, the people.''
William Hazlitt:
''A gentle word, a kind look, a good-natured smile
can work wonders and accomplish miracles.''
Viktor Orban, of Hungary:
"We are taught that sanctions are imposed by the
strong against the weak. But if you look at the
energy sanctions, you can see that we are
energy dwarfs in Europe, who impose
sanctions against the energy giant.
In my opinion, this cannot lead to
anything good. If we lifted the
sanctions --- the situation in
Europe would immediately
improve."
Sergey Lavrov's remarks to UN Security Council:
''Then Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseny Yatsenyuk
said in 2015, that sub-humans lived in Donbass.
the current President, Vladimir Zelensky has
not moved too far.. from this. When asked
what he thought.. about the residents of
Donbass, in his interview, in September
2021 he replied that some were people
and others were creatures or animal
species. This is a salient feature
of the Ukrainian regime, both
under Petr Poroshenko and
Vladimir Zelensky.''
Signs on public transport in Riga, Latvia:
"Attention! Seats for Russian speakers are
only on the back platform of the bus!"
The mayor of the city of Dnepr Boris Filatov:
“Now is the time for cold fury. We now have
the full moral right to calmly and with a
completely clear mind kill these non-
humans around the world, for the
foreseeable future --- and in the
largest possible quantities.”
Percy Shelley:
''Empire has a long memory, tries to erase the past,
is terrified of the memory and the gigantic
shadows of the future.''
Maria Zakharova:
''The West’s biggest dream is to set prices for the
resources they do not own. They’ve been doing
this for centuries. They took things from other
people for free - & had those other people pay
them for doing so -- thus making independent
countries & nations their colonies, satellites,
semi-colonies and vassals. Now, they have
moved to plan B --- which is wrapped up in
economic terms such as “oil price caps”
and is called “control over resources.”
In fact, what we are witnessing is
theft, when someone who isn't
entitled to ''dispose of'' others
resources is dictating prices
for these resources.''
Corrupt unelected E.U. boss, Von der Leyen:
"We will see the result of the vote in Italy.
If things go in a difficult direction,
we have tools, as in the case
of Poland and Hungary."
Caitlin Johnstone:
''The US empire continually works to strengthen its
stranglehold over global economic and financial
systems ------ so that it can starve disobedient
populations anywhere in the world, without
firing a shot. Once you get this ---- you get
why the empire sees a multi-polar world
as such a threat.''
Caitlin Johnstone:
Americans: drinkable water please.
US government: Sorry, did you say
...send billions of dollars worth of
weapons to Ukraine and Taiwan?
Americans: no, drinkable water.
US government: Alright, you drive a
hard bargain, but here’s billions of
dollars of weapons for Ukraine
and Taiwan.
Maria Zakharova:
''We understand --- that Washington has set course for
global destabilisation. We can see this.... in various
regions of Asia, Europe, Africa & just everywhere.
We also understand --- why this is happening.
Washington lacks internal and legitimate
external resources for its own develop-
ment and to overcome its economic
and political crisis. So, they have
turned to unlawful actions.''
Maria Zakharova:
''A unilateral world - will end up in a deadlock. This
is already happening. Only a world of harmonious
existence... has a chance to survive.''
President Zelensky of Ukraine:
"In Germany, there are certain psychological
barriers to the supply of weapons to
Ukraine, related to its Nazi past."
Unelected E.U. Commission
head, Ursula von der Leyen:
"This is a war against our energy, a war against our
economy, a war against our values, a war against
our future. And I stand here, with the conviction
that, with courage and solidarity, Putin will fail,
Europe will triumph. Europe's solidarity with
Ukraine --- will remain unwavering. And I
want to make it clear --- that sanctions
against Russia will remain in place,
until its economy is torn apart.
Now - is the time for
determination,
not peace."
Ursula Von der Leyen:
''...arrest Putin, send him to
the Hague, or even kill him.''
Caitlin Johnstone:
Step 1: Set up systems that make the world’s
populations dependent on global trade.
Step 2: Work toward shoring up control over
those systems so that you decide who gets
to trade and who doesn’t.
Step 3: Dominate the entire human species
using weaponized starvation.
Western parliaments:
“We are the people, and
the people – that’s us.”
Chinese American on September 12th, 2022:
''Our morality does not come from religion, but in our
faith in ourselves. Believe about us what you will,
because our source of morality is beyond the
world view of most Europeans.''
US General Douglas MacArthur:
“The scale and grandeur of the Russian effort,
mark it as the greatest military achievement
in all history.”
Caitlin Johnstone:
''If the US empire doesn’t have wildly disproportionate
influence over whether earth’s populations can make
and use money, those populations suddenly have no
need to obey the dictates of Washington. Unilateral
sanctions are meaningless ----- if everyone can just
ignore them. So there’s literally an entire planet’s
worth of power at stake here when we’re talking
about the empire’s “great power competition”,
with Beijing and Moscow, because what that
slogan really means is preventing the rise of
a true multi-polar world - where power isn’t
as centralized. And this, is the single most
urgent threat --- facing the human species
today: a nuclear-armed empire struggling
to secure planetary domination --- at any
cost. A floundering unipolarist empire
with nuclear weapons, is dangerous
in the same way a cornered animal
with sharp fangs, is dangerous.
Except there’s a whole lot
more, at stake.''
Confucius (on rap):
“If one wants to know whether a kingdom is well
governed, whether its morals are good or bad,
the quality of its music will provide
the answer.”
President Putin on Tchaikovsky:
“The proverbial ‘cancel culture’ has
become a cancellation of culture.”
Historian Michael Walzer:
“The Siege of Leningrad killed more civilians
than the bombing of Hamburg, Dresden,
Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined.”
1 Peter 4:19
Let those who suffer according to the will of God
commit their souls to Him in doing good.''
Dugin:
“The fact is.... that Russia is directly opposed to
globalism - the “liberal totalitarianism” - and this
is an ideology. The fact is that globalism insists
on the complete unification of humanity, under
the leadership of a World Government --- with
the universal spread of liberal democracy,
ideologies and systems of rules and
norms based on them ---- including
gender politics, LGBT+, extreme
individualism & transhumanism.”
Dugin:
“The end of history is the victory of liberalism
and the West on a global scale, which implies
the abolition of any ideological, geopolitical,
economic and socio-cultural alternatives.”
Historian, Edward Gibbons:
“The name of Poet was almost forgotten; that of
Orator was usurped by the sophists. A cloud
of critics, of compilers, of commentators,
darkened the face of learning, and
the decline of genius was soon
followed by the corruption
of taste.”
In his first inaugural address, Lincoln said:
“I have no purpose - directly or indirectly -
to interfere with the institution of slavery
in the states where it exists. I believe
I have no lawful right to do so.”
William Seward, Lincoln’s Secretary of State:
“We show our sympathy with slavery by
emancipating slaves where we cannot
reach them --- and holding them in
bondage where we can set
them free.”
Bruce Gagnon:
''When law and morality contradict each other, the
citizen has the cruel alternative of either losing
his moral sense, or losing his respect for
the law.''
Abraham Lincoln:
“We cannot attain the ideal union our Fathers
dreamed, with millions of an alien, inferior
race among us, whose assimilation is
neither possible or desirable.”
Native American Proverb:
“When a man moves away from
nature his heart becomes hard.”
Frédéric Bastiat:
''Sometimes the law defends plunder and participates
in it. Sometimes the law places the whole apparatus
of judges, police, prisons, and gendarmes, at the
service of the plunderers and treats the victim
- when he defends himself - as a criminal.''
Arundhati Roy:
“Once weapons were manufactured to fight wars.
Now wars are manufactured to sell weapons.”
George Bernays, nephew of Sigmund Freud:
“The conscious, intelligent, manipulation of
the habits and opinion of the masses, is an
important element in democratic society.
And those who manipulate this unseen
mechanism of society, constitute the
invisible government, which is the
true ruling power of the US.”
On August 22nd, in 1862, Lincoln wrote:
''If I could save the Union without
freeing any slave, I would do it.''
Bruce Gagnon:
''We must all work as hard and consistently as possible
to shut down our corrupt government. When ''our''
government no longer represents ‘We the people’
then we have an obligation to revolt. Why are
people so compliant? Don’t they care about
their children and grand-kids future? Do
they have a right to just give up?
I don’t think so.''
Frédéric Bastiat:
''When misguided public opinion --- honours what
is despicable, and despises what is honorable,
punishes virtue & rewards vice, encourages
what is harmful and discourages what is
useful, applauds falsehood & smothers
truth under indifference, or insult, a
nation turns its back on progress,
and can be restored, only by the
terrible lessons of catastrophe. ''
Jimi Hendrix:
“When the power of love is greater than
the love of power, there will be peace.”
Professor Everisto Nebyera:
"If BRICS prevail --- We will see
a new global economic order."
Georgi Zhukov on the liberation of Berlin:
“We liberated Europe from fascism,
but they will never forgive us for it.”
Frédéric Bastiat:
''When plunder becomes a way of life, men create for
themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a
moral code that glorifies it.''
Shoigu at the recent ‘First International
Anti-Fascist Congress’ held nr Moscow:
“It is clear that the financial and economic co-operation
between Anglo-American & Nazi business circles was a
major factor leading to the 2nd World War --- which cost
humanity, unprecedented human lives. SS legionnaires’
marches have become traditional in Estonia and Latvia
with monuments and obelisks erected to war criminals.
Nazi slogans & appeals are openly heard in the streets
of Lithuanian cities. The policy of the Kiev authorities,
to rehabilitate Nazism and incite hatred towards every
thing connected with Russia. After the collapse of the
Soviet Union --- everything was done in Washington to
turn Ukraine [& the rest of Europe] into the antipode
of Russia. The promotion of legislation - banning the
Russian language, Russian media, Russian culture -
everything related to our country was encouraged.
The fight against any manifestation of Nazism,
must therefore, be uncompromising,
and comprehensive.”
Evo Morales:
“We have profound ideological differences with the
politics implemented by the United States using
NATO, which are based on interventionism and
militarism. Between Russia and Ukraine they
want to reach an agreement and the U.S.
keeps provoking war --- the U.S. military
industry, which is able to live thanks
to war --- and they provoke wars in
order to sell their weapons.
That’s the other reality
we live in.”
Janos Arany
''In dreams and in love
there are no impossibilities.''
Abraham Lincoln:
“I can conceive of no greater calamity,
than the assimilation of the Negro
into our social and political life,
as our equal.”
Minister of Defence of the Russian Federation,
and General of the Army, Sergei Shoigu:
''The transition from dominance by a single
global leader to several centres of gravity
is not an easy one. However, this creates
real conditions for the development of
sovereign states.''
Chinese Foreign Ministry:
''85 percent of the world's population
- has not imposed sanctions against
Russia: only the majority represent
the international community."
President Putin:
''The situation in the world is changing dynamically,
and the outlines of a multipolar world order --- are
taking shape. An increasing number of countries
and peoples - are choosing a path of free and
sovereign development based on their own
distinct identity, traditions and values.''
''These objective processes... are being opposed by the
Western globalist elites, who provoke chaos, fanning
long-standing & new conflicts, and pursuing the so-
called containment policy, which, in fact, amounts
to the subversion.. of any alternative, sovereign
development options. Thus -- they are doing all
they can, to keep hold onto the hegemony and
power that are slipping from their hands; they
are attempting to retain countries & peoples
in a grip of what is essentially a neocolonial
order. Their hegemony.. means stagnation
for the rest of the world & for the entire
civilisation; it means obscurantism,
the cancellation of culture, and
neoliberal totalitarianism.''
Timothy Leary (1920-1996):
"Almost everyone today is brain-damaged
by our education, which is designed to
produce docile automatons."
General Sherman, told his wife his purpose:
''Extermination --- not of soldiers alone, that is
the least part of the trouble --- but the people.''
Historian Lee Kennett, in
his biography of Sherman:
“Had the Confederates somehow won, had their
victory put them in position to bring their chief
opponents before some sort of tribunal, they
would have found themselves justified in
stringing up President Lincoln and the
entire Union high command --- for
violation of the laws of war ---
specifically, for waging war
against noncombatants.”
Jeremy Kuzmarov:
“Former Bolivian President Evo Morales calls
for a global campaign --- to eliminate NATO.”
Evo Morales:
“Julian Assange's detention --- represents an escalation,
an intimidation: so that all the crimes against humanity
committed by the different governments of the United
States --- are never revealed. So many interventions,
so many invasions, so much looting.”
Milagros Pichardo Pérez:
''Even the President of Mexico, Andrés Manuel López
Obrador, directly asked his counterpart, Joe Biden,
to release the founder of the WikiLeaks portal, to
whom he "opens the doors of his country," and
described him as "the best journalist of our
time." He also considered, that the
treatment he has received, only
"for denouncing human rights
violations", is worse than
that of a criminal.''
The UN special rapporteur on torture, Nils Melzer,
says Assange has suffered psychological torture:
"How far have we sunk?"
Robert Penn Warren wrote in his 1960 book:
“The Northerner, with his Treasury of Virtue, caused
by his victory in the Civil War, feels as though he has
an indulgence; a plenary indulgence, for all sins past
present & future. This indulgence is the justification
for our crusades of 1917-1918 and 1941-1945, and
our diplomacy of righteousness, with the slogan
of unconditional surrender and universal
rehabilitation --- for others.”
Thomas DiLorenzo:
''Lincoln’s war destroyed the voluntary union of
the founding fathers and replaced it with an
involuntary union held together by threat
of invasion, bloodshed, conquest,
and subjugation.''
Evo Morales:
“They think that some countries are the property
of other nations. They think God put them there,
so the world belongs to the U.S. and the UK.
That’s why the rebellions and the
uprisings will continue.”
Evo Morales:
“In politics we must ask ourselves: Are we with the
people or are we with the empire? If we are with
the people, we make a country; if we are with
the empire, we make money. If we are with
the people, we fight for life, for humanity;
if we are with the empire, we are with
the politics of death, the culture of
death, interventions and pillaging
of the people. That is what we
ask ourselves as humans,
as leaders: ‘Are we
at the service of
our people?’”
Yves Smith of 'Naked Capitalism':
“Despite the aggressive Western sanctions….... Russia
has been very restrained, as far as counter-measures
are concerned. So, after loudly saying that the EU
wants nothing to do with Russian energy, or
Russian pipelines... the EU should hardly
be upset, if Russia is tired of laboring
not to give them what they asked
for, an economic divorce. The
problem is, Europe is now
upset, that it’s getting
what it acted like
it wanted.”
Catherine the Great, of Russia:
''A man ought to form, in his own mind, an exact
and clear Idea of what liberty is. Liberty is the
right --- of doing whatsoever the laws allow:
and if any one citizen could do what the
laws forbid --- there would be no more
liberty; because others would have
an equal power of doing
the same.''
Ian Rankin OBE DL FRSE FRSL:
''I would have loved to have been a
rock n' roll star. But none of us
was musical, and none of us
had any instruments.''
Jim Rickards:
“The economies of the US and the EU are in, or very
near to, recession. Inflation is out of control in the
West and commodity shortages will lead quickly
to food shortages and more empty shelves in
supermarkets… as economic sanctions
have backfired - with protests turning
up at all spots in the global supply
chain - including railways,
trucking, warehouses,
and ports…”
US Senator Lindsey Graham:
"I like the path we are on. As long as we
help Ukraine with the weapons it needs
and economic support, it will fight to
the last man."
Jim Rickards:
“Almost everything you heard ---- about the
war in Ukraine from US media.. was a lie.”
Ex President of Ukraine Poroshenko
who signed the Minsk Agreements:
“When I was signing it, I never intended to implement
it. We just needed more time - to get more weapons
from the West - in order to enable us to resolve the
problem of the Ukrainian East by the use of force.”
Martin Jay:
"The once-golden relationship between the US
and the EU is also coming to an end. A game
of accusations will begin ---- which will be
carefully developed over several weeks
in the media. The West needs to get
out of the conflict in Ukraine and
it needs a good reason to
turn around."
What kids in the late 1940s used
to sing, on the May day marches:
''Go home yankee, yankee go home!
We don’t want you anymore.
For the way of life you sell
Doesn’t suit us very well
And it wasn’t Errol Flynn
that won the war!''
Rachel Marsden:
“The conflict in Ukraine, risks creating the ultimate
nightmare for Western elites: an alternative group
of allies, over which the West has no control, but
with the capacity to offer opportunities that are
competitive with what their own governments
or countries are offering… Western elites are
doubling down in Ukraine to save the world
order --- that protects their own selfish
interests --- thinking that it’s the way
to prevent... a parallel option from
emerging. It’s as simple as that.
And they don’t care, if it’s the
average citizen who has to
pay the price”.
Camilo José Cela:
''There are two kinds of man:
the ones who make history -
and the ones who endure it.''
Dmitry Medvedev:
“Washington - in tandem with London - conned the
Europeans like a couple of shell-game tricksters.”
Sergey Lavrov:
“The European economy is impacted -- more than
anything else. The stats show that 40 percent
of the damage caused by sanctions is borne
by the EU --- whereas the damage to the
United States is less than 1 percent.”
Kusumagraj:
"My love is deep and wide like that of the sky.
My only morality is to fight slavery.
I do not care for the restrictions of caste or creed.
I only know humanity and its service"
Richard Price:
''Tremble, all ye oppressors of the world! Take warning,
all ye supporters of slavish governments, and slavish
hierarchies! Call no more (absurdly and wickedly)
reformation, innovation. You cannot now hold
the world in darkness. Restore to mankind..
their rights; and consent to the correction
of abuses, before they and you are
destroyed together.“
Thomas Carlyle:
“Make yourself an honest man, and then
you may be sure that there is one less
scoundrel in the world.”
Eric Zuesse, on post-soviet US aims:
''President GHW Bush, secretly informed America’s
allies, starting on February 24th in 1990, “To hell
with that! We prevailed, they didn’t” ie, “they still
need to be totally and humiliatingly defeated
by us; they need to be conquered.” This ---
is the reality. No myth. America’s foreign
policies are laser-focused on crippling if
not destroying, all possible competitors.
Especially, all nations in Europe need
to know this, and to reverse course
because of it. Because --- if they
don’t, then Europe’s economies
will be crushed this coming
winter, in order to keep up
the US Government’s lies.
It is.. their choice. Either
continuing as American
vassal-nations, or else,
making a fundamental
turn, toward freedom
and justice.''
Martin Armstrong:
“There is no way they can get out of this, other than
by default. If they default, they are worried about
millions of people -- storming the parliaments of
Europe. This is really a tremendous financial
crisis that we are facing. They have been
borrowing year after year, since WWII ---
with zero intention of paying
anything back.”
Angelo Giliano, Financial & Political Analyst:
''What the collective West needs to take into account
now is ---- that they are not alone. They need to stop
their imperialist way of approaching how they see
the world. They tend to say the global world, but
when they say the global world, they only mean
maybe 15% of the population. But the problem
now is, that they don't have the weight they
used to have and they need to take into
account that you have an emergent
world and they are - we are -
living in the last days of
the imperialistic West.''
Cynthia Chung:
''Russia’s proclaimed support... in its letters to Lincoln,
would be put to the test - during the summer of 1863.
By then the South’s invasion of the North had failed
at Gettysburg and the violent anti-war New York
draft riots also failed, and Britain - as a result -
was thinking of a direct military intervention
--- with the backing of France.
''What would follow, marks one of the greatest displays
of support for another country’s sovereignty, to
ever occur in modern history. The Russian
Navy arrived on both the east and west
coastlines of the US in late September
and early October, in 1863.
''The timing was highly coordinated.... due to intelligence
reports of when Britain and France were intending their
military action. The Russian navy would stay along the
US coastline... in support of the Union, for 7 months!
They never intervened in the American civil war but
rather..... remained in its waters, at the behest of
Lincoln in case of a foreign power’s interference.
''If Russia had not done this, Britain and France would
most certainly, have intervened on the Confederate
states behalf -- as they made clear they would and
the US -- would have most certainly broken in two.
At that point it was Russia’s direct naval support
that allowed the US to remain whole.''
US ''Defense'' Secretary, Lloyd Austin:
“The range of HIMARS, our GMLRS round, is 80
kilometres and so that’s pretty good reach. It
has allowed and will continue to allow, to get
after those longer-range targets that they’ve
been unable to reach.”
Michael Hudson:
The philosophy of the IMF ever since world war II is
when third world countries can’t pay the debt, the
IMF comes in with an austerity program and says
you have to lower wages -- you have to break up
labour unions, if necessary you have to have a
democracy, and you can’t have a democracy
unless you’re willing to assassinate and
arrest the labour leaders and the
advocates of land redistribution
...because a democracy means
basically, rule by the financial
sector centred in the US. So..
finance capitalism ever since
WWI and especially WWII and
especially since 1980, is the
nationalistic doctrine of US
banks and the US 1%, and
the US financial sector ----
that's sort of merged into
a symbiotic unit with the
finance, insurance and
real estate.''
''In other words, finance capitalism instead of trying
to promote overall economic growth for the 99%,
instead of financing the industrialization of an
economy, with rising productivity and rising
living standards, is now cannibalizing the
industrial sector, and cannibalizing the
corporate sector. As you’re seeing
in the U.S., finance capitalism
is the economic doctrine of
deindustrialization... that
has occurred in the US,
in England, and is now
occurring in Europe.''
Michael Hudson:
''You need a strong enough government to check the
power of an oligarchy and to prevent a creditor
landowner oligarchy from developing. And
libertarians... while pretending to be for
liberty, they’re for a centrally planned
economy --- but a centrally planned
economy by the oligarchy, by the
financial sector, and by the real
estate owners. So every
economy is planned.
And the question is,
who’s going to do
the planning?''
Daniel Ortega, Sandinista:
''We are a poor country that wants to take the efforts
and resources.... now being invested in defense of
the revolution and invest it in tractors and plows.
Imperialism cannot conceive of a free people,
a sovereign people, an independent people.
Because, simply and plainly, for them,
the people is nothing more than
an empty phrase.''
Michael Hudson:
''What you call the bad guys.. always call themselves
the good guys. What you call evil, calls itself good.
So the question is, what kind of good guys you’re
going to have? The good guys that want to blow
up the world and impoverish society, which is
what neoliberalism says are the good guys,
or the good guys for the 99%, which
America says are autocracies,
that we have to fight?''
Femi Akomolafe:
''Why are Westerners so dumb, that they
cannot ask where their leaders... who
can’t find the money to repair their
shattered economies, suddenly
find the money to provide
weapons to Nazis,
in Ukraine?''
Russian Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov:
“Our special military operation -- is meant to put an end
to the unabashed expansion and the unabashed drive
towards full domination - by the US and its Western
subjects on the world stage. This domination... is
built on gross violations of international law and
under some rules which they are now hyping
so much, and which they make up on a
case-by-case basis.”
Frantz Fanon:
“When I search for Man in the technique and
the style of Europe, I see only a succession
of negations of man --- and an avalanche of
murders. Leave this Europe where they are
never done talking of Man, yet murder men
everywhere they find them, at the corner
of every one of their own streets... in all
the corners of the globe. For centuries
they have stifled almost the whole of
humanity in the name of a so-called
spiritual experience. Look at them
today, swaying between atomic
and spiritual disintegration.”
June the 9th, in 1537, Pope
Paul III's Bull Sublimis Deus:
''We... who, although indignant, exercise the power of
Our Lord on earth -- and fight by all means -- to bring
the lost herd to the fold that has been entrusted to
us nevertheless consider that the Indians are true
men and, that they are not only capable of under-
standing the Catholic faith, but, according to our
information ...notwithstanding what has been
said, or is said to the contrary, such Indians
and all those who are later discovered by
the Christians, may not be deprived of
their LIBERTY BY ANY MEANS, nor of
their properties, even if they are not
in the faith of Jesus Christ; and of
their properties and they will not
be slaves, and everything that
is done will be null and void.''
Hungary’s PM Viktor Orban
on anti-Russian sanctions:
“Initially, I thought we had only shot ourselves in
the foot, but now it is clear, that the European
economy has shot itself in the lungs and it
is gasping for air. What we see right now,
is unbearable.”
Ben Okri:
"We have to find a new art and a new
psychology, to penetrate the apathy
and denial that are preventing us
making the changes that are
inevitable if our world is
to survive."
Caitlin Johnstone:
''The majority of Americans think it’s just fine
to use AR-15s (assault rifles) on foreigners....
it’s just not okay to use them on Americans.''
Proverb:
''Correction is grievous to him that

Pepe Escobar:
“Geopolitically, and geoeconomically,
Russia and China are in the process

Frederick Engels:
‘‘The fact is that there is no army in either Europe
or America with so much brutality as the British.
Plundering, Violence, Massacres – things that
everywhere else are strictly and completely
banished – are a time-honored privilege, a
vested right of the British soldier … The
sack of Lucknow (India) in 1858, will
remain an everlasting disgrace to

Vladimir Putin:
"They should have realized that they

''Though many of the poor.. have come to see

“Mainstream journalism died not in a prison cell,

Dmitry Medvedev:
"Nobody in their right mind, wants higher prices
and taxes, mounting tension along the borders,
Iskanders, hypersonic weapons, or ships with

our neighbours eventually prevails.
Yet if not, then, as they say,
"they started it."
Pepe Escobar:
''NATO will continue to help Kiev to fight
until the last Ukrainian cannon fodder.''
Fabio Vighi:
“The purpose of the Ukrainian emergency... is
to keep the money printer switched on while
blaming Putin for the worldwide economic
downturn. The war.. serves the opposite
aim of what we are told: not to defend
Ukraine but to prolong the conflict
and nourish inflation - in a bid to
defuse cataclysmic risk in the
debt market, which would
spread like wildfire
across the whole
financial sector.”
Sergei Lavrov, Russian Foreign Minister:
''When the Second World War was
about to start --- Hitler gathered
most of the European countries

''Now the EU and NATO are also gathering
the same modern coalition for the fight,
and, by and large, for war with the
Russian Federation. We will
look at this very carefully.''
Pepe Escobar:
''The European Commission is totally outside of any

US commentator on The Saker:
''The world is being turned upside down, at a pace that is
simply breathtaking. I live in a small, rural Kansas farm
community and, thanks to media.. from TV to TikTok,
the cultural blitzkrieg has hit --- even here. In our
high school are not only “trans” students... but
“furries” — there are 3 girls who “identify”
as CATS. Thanks to the recent Biden
edict... we now have to figure out, if
we’re willing to cancel the school
lunch program... in order to keep
boys out of girls’ restrooms and
off the girls sports teams.
Thanks to smartphones children’s minds are being
colonized, and occupied by the same satanic
forces - that dominate the coasts. No safe
harbor anywhere. A 13-year-old boy here
who'd had his mind warped by online
pornography, tormented, tortured
and raped.... a 13year old girl.
Right here, in our little rural
town. No more Mayberry.
And it happened
seemingly...
overnight.''
The 57th Motorized Infantry Brigade of Ukraine:
''We have big problems: with food, water, medical
supplies and the treatment of the wounded and
sick. We did not have any heavy weapons. The
enemy’s heavy artillery, worked on us all day,
& there was no response from our artillery.
We all have various contusions or injuries
we received.. in combat positions. There
are many people.. with chronic diseases.
We could no longer continue our service.
We want to protect our homeland but we
have a lot of problems that need to be
solved and cured - now. We could not
get this.. from the management. We
will now be heading to the hospital
for treatment. We express --- our
distrust ---- to the leadership of
the brigade --- the leadership
of the battalion, as we have
a feeling... that they just
want to dispose of us.''

''Ensuring efficiency in public administration,

directions of state policy.''
Khosrow Golsorkhi:
''Why should it fit any literary school. Why imprison our
poetry, which is our only effective art form, in literary
and stylistic schools? The place of a poem.. is not in
libraries, but in tongues and minds. Literature must
retain the role it always had in social movements,
for us too... in the displacement of social order,
and fulfill it. The role of literature is to awaken.
The role of progressive literature is to create
social movements and to help attain the
goals of the historic development
of peoples."
Eugenio Maria de Hostos:
''Nearly all human beings love, but
nearly none know how to love.''
Ramin Razaheri:
''Modern political history... begins in 1789,
because it begins with the fight against
the absolute autocracy of monarchy &
humanity’s shift towards greater and
greater democracy. It doesn't begin
in 1688... with England’s Glorious
Revolution, because all that faux
-revolution did, was legitimise
monarchical oligarchy, which
still exists today in England,
in Saudi Arabia, in Morocco
and in all the monarchies,
because that --- is what
monarchy is: collusion
on behalf of a few ---
against democracy,
equality, and
humanity.''

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte:
“In terms of weaponry, we stand united here:
that it is crucial for Russia to lose the war.
As we can't have a direct confrontation
between NATO troops... and Russia,
what we need to do is make sure
that Ukraine can fight that war,
that it has access to all the
necessary weaponry.”
The President of Mexico:
“How easy it is to say: ‘There, I send so
much money for weapons, I provide the
weapons and you provide the dead.’
It is immoral.”
Maria Zakharova, at the Saint
Petersburg Economic Forum:
“If you’re looking for media objectivity,
best not focus on the West’s portrayal

Edmund Burke on Western Liberal Democracy
as practiced in France's Third Estate, in 1790:
“Judge, Sir, my surprise when I found that a very great
proportion of the assembly (a majority, I believe, of
the members who attended) ...was composed of
practitioners in... the law. Who could conceive
that men who are habitually meddling, daring,
subtle, active, of litigious dispositions, and
unquiet minds... would easily fall back into
their old condition of obscure contention -
and laborious low, unprofitable chicanery.
Who could doubt but that, at any expense
to the state - of which, they understood
nothing - they must pursue their private
interests, which they understand, but
too well.”
Karl Marx on Western Liberal Democracy
as practiced in the United States:
“Nowhere do ‘politicians’ form a more separate,
powerful section of the nation, than in North
America. There, each of the 2 great parties
which, alternately, succeed each other in
power, is itself --- in turn --- controlled by
people who make a business of politics,
who speculate on seats - in legislative
assemblies of the Union, as well as of
the separate states - or who make a
living... by carrying on agitation for
their party and, on its victory, are
rewarded with positions.”
Joe Stalin:
“Social Democracy and fascism,
are not opposites, they
are twins.”
Ramin Mazaheri for The Saker blog:
''A common Western Liberal Democratic criticism of
the parliaments of Cuba, Iran, China, etc... is that
there are too many people who are “unqualified”.
They are accused of this, because they lack
university degrees, whereas, in socialist-
inspired democracy, morality, devotion
to the people and grassroots esteem,
are seen as good qualifications for
public office.''

Bruce Lee:
“If you love life, don’t waste time,
for time is what life is made up of.”
Michael Hudson, economist:
''I suspect that a new world economic system
is emerging. If it succeeds, the last century –
since the end of World War I and the mess it
left – will seem like a long detour of history,
now returning to what seemed to be... the
basic social ideals of classical economics
– a market free from rent-seeking
landlords, monopolies and
predatory finance.''
Charles Dickens:
''The American elite is almost beyond
redemption... Moral relativism has
set in so deeply... that the gilded
classes have become incapable
of discerning right from wrong.
Everything can be explained
away... especially by
journalists.''
A Living Sacrifice:
Romans 12 vs 1-2
1. Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of
God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice,
holy and pleasing to God — this is your
true and proper worship.
2. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be
transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then
you will be able to test and approve what God’s
will is — his good, pleasing and perfect will.

''In 1961 every nation in Africa produced
more than 100% of its own food supply,
today... almost none of them do. What
happened? The IMF and the World
Bank. For ''loans'', they had to
introduce ''austerity',' and
privatise everything, and
then --- convert to cash
crops to feed the US.''
Michael Hudson:
''The choice confronting Global South countries:
to starve, by paying their foreign bondholders &
bankers, or to announce, as a basic principle of
international law: 'As sovereign countries, we
put our survival above the aim of enriching
foreign creditors, who have made loans
that have gone bad, as a result of their
choice to wage a new Cold War. As for
the destructive neoliberal advice that
the IMF & World Bank have given us...
their austerity plans were destructive
instead of helpful. Therefore, their
loans have gone bad. As such,
they have become odious.'''
Aleksey Zhuravko:
“The leaders of the West themselves created the
illusion of universal support for Zelensky, but in
reality he looks like a donkey, in front of which
they constantly hold a “carrot”, which
invariably slips away. In fact, both
him and the whole country,
are simply being led to
the slaughter.”
Aleksey Zhuravko:
“They understand very well --- that all the “red lines”
drawn by Vladimir Putin, have long been crossed,
so there is nothing to be ashamed of. After all,
in the end, it will still be up to Russia and its
partners to restore Ukraine. Therefore, the
goal of the West is to inflict maximum
damage on this country. Ukraine
can only be given - some penny
loans for restoration, but with
a mandatory repayment and
at crazy interest rates.”
Batiushka, for the Saker Blog:
''Today the seven billion people of the Non-Western
world.... are ranged against the one billion of the
Western world. All the international foundations
- the UN, IMF, WHO etc, are going to be remade.
Why should some of them, at least, not be
headquartered in Russia? Either in Saint
Petersburg, or in Ekaterinburg, or in
the Crimea.''
Nikolai Patrushev, Secretary of the Security
Council of the Russian Federation, June 3rd:
''The special operation in Ukraine has brought
the confrontation between Russia & Western
countries, led by the US, to a climax. Battles
are going on, not only in the vast spaces of
the Ukraine, but also in the economic,
political and cultural spheres. The
style of the Anglo-Saxons has not
changed for centuries. And so...
today they continue to dictate
their terms to the world,
boorishly trampling on
the sovereign rights
of States.''
Silvio Berlusconi, Il Giornale, June 4th:
''What the Ukrainian crisis has shown us, is that
the West is isolated from the rest of the world,
and this is an alarm call for the present,
and especially, for the future.''
St. John Chrysostom:
“The road to hell... is paved with the skulls

''I don't believe in that kind of American John Wayne
individualism, where people pull themselves up by
their bootstraps. Someone changed your diapers.
And if that's the case, you ain't self-made.''
Batiushka:
''American roulette: this is the correct name for
so-called ‘Russian roulette’. It never existed in
Russia, but was invented by a US writer for a
work of fiction in 1937. Presumably he gave
it the Russian name, as it sounded ‘exotic’
to him. Another crazy racist Russophobic
invention, that only gun-obsessed
cowboys, with their cult of
violence, could think up.''
Alexander Perendzhiev:
“Such weapons and military equipment supplied by the
United States to official Kyiv pose a direct threat not
only to the Russian regions bordering Ukraine, but
also directly to Moscow itself and to the Central
macroregion of the Russian Federation.. as a
whole. That is, such a supply of weapons is
an attempt.. to carry out direct aggression
against our country from the parties.. are
no longer Ukraine, but the United States!
It is precisely in this way --- and not
otherwise --- that these actions of
official Washington... should
be considered.”
Bernard Le Bovier de Fontenelle:
''It takes time to ruin a world,
but time is all it takes.''
Mary Ritter Beard:
“Despite the modern dogma to the effect that
women were a subject sex --- until the 19th
century 'emancipated' them from history,
women - in history - had demonstrated
strong wills and purposes, had made
assertions, and had directed or
influenced all human destiny,
including their own, since
human life began.”

German chancellor Scholz, in Davos:
''Putin can never win in Ukraine because it is
already obvious: that he could not achieve
a single one of his goals in Ukraine.''
Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov:
''The arrogance of the Anglo-Saxon alliance... has no
limits. We are offered evidence of that... every day.
Instead of delivering on their obligations under the
UN Charter and honouring, as is written in this
charter -- the sovereign equality of states and
abstaining from interfering in their domestic
affairs -- the West churns out ultimatums
every day, issuing them through their
ambassadors or envoys, to each -
without exception - capital and,
in so doing, blatantly black-
mailing them.''
Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao Lijian:
''Since the 1980s, the US has withdrawn from 17
international organizations or treaties, including
the UN Human Rights Council, the World Health
Organization, the United Nations Educational,
Scientific and Cultural Organization, the Paris
Agreement, the Iran nuclear deal... the Arms
Trade Treaty, the INF Treaty, the Open Skies
Treaty, among others. Such a country, now
shamelessly disguises itself... as a referee
of international rules --- shining a spotlight
on where others come short, while turning
a blind eye to its outright violations. When
US politicians eloquently cite the United
Nations Convention on the Law of the
Sea, to criticize other countries, are
they aware of the fact that the US
is not even a state party to
the Convention?''
Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Zhao Lijian:
''The US is the top saboteur of the international order,
sticks to US centrism & exceptionalism and wantonly
withdraws from treaties, and organizations. It refuses
to sign or ratify the United Nations Convention on the
Rights of the Child and Convention on the Elimination
of All Forms of Discrimination against Women, voted
against the Global Compact for Migration and the
Global Compact on Refugees, and remains the
sole party obstructing negotiations for a
verification protocol to the Biological
Weapons Convention.''
Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov:
''In 2015, the war in Donbass unleashed by the new
Ukrainian authorities who seized power in the
coup, was stopped. The Minsk agreements
were signed and guaranteed... by France
and Germany. All these years we called
on Kiev to honour its commitments.
Since the West had the decisive
influence on it we also worked
with the Europeans and the
Americans, appealing
to their conscience.
Regrettably..... they
have no conscience.''
Bill Hicks:
''Just a simple choice, right now, between fear
and love. The eyes of fear, want you to put
bigger locks on your doors, buy guns,
close yourself off. The eyes of love,
instead, see all of us, as one.''
Valentin Varennikov:
"I have five reasons to love China: first, the Chinese
people are outstanding people, and China has a
long history and culture; second, she has an
amazing development rate today; third, the
Chinese people have never threatened
anyone, but the Chinese people have
war brought to them by aggressors.
However, they finally defeated the
aggressors and embarked on
the road of national
independence.''
''Fourth, China is our great neighbour... and China and
Russia have traditional friendship. Fifth, the Chinese
leaders - trained by the Communist Party of China -
led the Chinese people to find the right direction
of development in the world economic
development system.''

Christopher Black, international criminal lawyer:
''The struggle --- to defeat the fascists who control the
west will be difficult and we face the risk of common
destruction. But, they will not succeed. They are not
bleeding Russia dry in a war of attrition, as they like
to claim. It is the USA and its allies that are being
bled dry by their own decisions and actions. It
is that which can make them dangerous, for
fascists are always dangerous. They
must be stopped. They are our
common enemy. Russia --- will
stop them. We must support
that struggle. Our own

Christopher Black, international criminal lawyer:
''The road to war... is a dead end for the West. It did not
solve or alleviate their situation in either of the world
wars. And the defeat of fascist forces, mainly by the
Red Army in 1945, did not end fascism in the west.
It just laid low, was unfashionable for a while,
lurked in dark corners in Canada, the
US, Britain, France and Germany,

Caitlin Johnstone:
“We live in a Narrative Matrix controlled by
Plutocratic and Military Institutions, who
have created an illusion of democracy.”
Christopher Black, international criminal lawyer:
''The European egocentric and ignorant view of'
themselves as the superior beings of the world,
which arose out of their ignorance of the world
and the dogmatism of the Catholic Church, and
the later promotion by the Protestants of the
individual as all important, instead of the
collective society, which denied the
identity of each with all and with
nature, created a society that
regarded others as outside
them, and so, were not of
them, but instead, things
to be used and exploited
just as they have used
and exploited... the
planet as a whole.''
Caitlin Johnstone:
“Who controls the Narrative controls the World.”
Christopher Black, international criminal lawyer:
''The rise of fascism in Italy, then Germany, France,
Spain and in the USA and Britain, during the 1930’s
was due to the decision to use any and all methods
to secure their control over the world. Mussolini,
Hitler and Franco, were given support in Europe
by industrial and financial capital. Japan was
encouraged to attack Russia and China.
Fascism was the reaction of a pending
collapse of the west, to try to save
itself, in a desperate and futile
attempt... that continues
today.''
Jules Renard:
''Laziness... is nothing more than the
habit of resting before you get tired.''
Nadezhda Krupskaya:
''Soviet power, at the head of which, Ilyich then
stood, was faced with the problem of creating
a type of state machinery, such as the world
had never before seen, one which relied on
the masses... and which would remake the
entire social fabric in a new, socialist way
and reshape all human relations. First of
all however, it was necessary to defend
Soviet power --- against the enemy's
attempts to overthrow it by force,
and to undermine it from within.
We had to strengthen our ranks.''

Heinz Dieterich, director of Centre for Transition
Sciences at the Autonomous Metropolitan
University, Mexico, coordinator at the
World Advanced Research Project:
“President Putin’s special military operation, to
defend the people of Donbas from an imminent
general offensive by a neo-Nazi regime in Kiev,
is not only fully justified in international law by
Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations
but is fully consistent with the military praxis
and doctrine of the legitimate self-defense of
States in the face of an imminent threat
emanating from a neighbouring state,
or enemy forces.”
Mike Adams:
“If Putin enforces his demand of accepting only rubles,
gold or bitcoin for energy exports, the dollar instantly
loses significant utility in the world. Those nations
that wish to buy energy from Russia - which
includes most European nations - will need
to first buy rubles, then trade rubles for
energy. This gives rubles instant
commodities backing. Putin’s
latest move threatens the
very future of the dollar
currency... and may
spell the beginning
of the end... for
the dollar.”

Russia's Foreign Minister, Sergey Lavrov:
''By plundering other countries’ material assets.... the
Western countries have destroyed their reputation of

elites.''
Propergander, Saker commentator:
''The issue is not... that the US has no strategy.

while the Russians spent $4 billion, give or take, and
already conquered Mariupol, Berdyansk, Kherson
and Melitopol, created a land corridor to Crimea
(securing its water supply), controls the Sea
of Azov and its major port city, and liberated
strategically vital Volnovakha & Popasnaya
in Donbass, as well as Izyum near Kharkov.
That doesn’t even include Russia hurling
the entire, collective west into a level of
recession not seen since the 1970s.''
Shakespeare’s mad, senile “King Lear”:
“I shall do such things, I know not what
they are. But they shall be - the terror

Thierry Meyssan:
''On November the 2nd, in 2021, Dmitryo Yarosh
became an advisor to General Zaluzhnyi -- the
Commander-in-Chief of the Ukrainian Armies.
All Banderite para-military organizations
- 102,000 men - were incorporated into
the Armed Forces of Ukraine. A plan
of attack on Crimea and Donbass,
was drawn up. NATO, which
already had military
instructors on site
sent weapons. ''

“I warn you against shedding blood,

Peacenik, Saker commentator:
''Bet you can’t guess the number one Senator

Its Bernie Sanders.''
Confucius, 551-479 BC, Chinese Teacher:
“Above all it is essential to refer to things by their
correct names. If things are not referred to by
their correct names, then our language will
not reflect reality. If our language does not
reflect reality, then our actions will not
reflect reality, and will be exercises
in futility.”
Democratic Leader Steny Hoyer:
"We are at war, forget about
blaming our own President
and focus on the enemy.''
Uncle Bob, Saker commentator:
''The swastika was the symbol of the Finnish
Air Force... until 2020. They removed it...
quietly and without announcements.''
Declan Hayes on NATO’s expansion to Finland
and how it would undermine Russia’s security:
“The Kola Peninsula, which lies almost completely
inside the Arctic Circle, is pivotal to Russia’s
Northern fleet. It is... the crux of Russia’s
military establishment in the western
Arctic, and its air and maritime
capabilities - are essential to
Russia’s homeland defense,
Arctic defense and overall
defense capabilities.''
''Because Kola’s Severomorsk-1 air base, Gadzhiyevo
submarine base... and Okolnaya submarine support
base are critical to Russia’s operational readiness
and its ability to defend Russia’s maritime space
in the Arctic, Russia cannot allow this deluded
warrior woman to launch Armageddon.''
''The Kola Peninsula is also home to systems, such as
RS-24 YARS - located at the Plesetsk Cosmodrome -
which are a core deterrent to U.S. and NATO attack
systems. Russia’s Grom-2019 exercises, showed
her ability to use Kola’s arsenal of ballistic and
cruise missiles to defend her position; not only
in the Arctic but further south along the entire
Finnish border, as well in contiguous regions
where Russia’s core strategic interests
are at stake.”
Cloud Of Fennoscandia, Saker commentator:
''We have been promised... a national vote on defence
matters for years and years, but gallups have shown
time after time -- that Finnish People do not want to
be part of any military cliques. Now our globalist
President and Schwab/WEF groomed, socialist
PM did see (arrange?) their momentum. And
all of a sudden, we, the People, and vote,
are not needed.''
V.I. Lenin’s “Imperialism, the Highest Stage
of Capitalism” (1912) Ch. 2, The Banks
and Their New Role:
“the beginning of the twentieth century marks the
turning point from the old capitalism to the new,
from the domination of capital in general, to
the domination of finance capital.”
Michael Hudson:
''… we’re seeing, in the last few months, the beginning
of a war that’s going to go on for – I think – 20 years,
maybe 30 or 40 years. The world is splitting away.
It won’t be a pretty sight --- because the United
States and its European satellites are trying
to prevent an inevitable break away, that
they cannot prevent, any more than
Europe’s landlord class... could
prevent industrial capitalism
from developing in the
19th century.''
Scott Ritter:
''US military personnel, whose traditions are born
from the heroic sacrifices - made by hundreds of
thousands of their fellow soldiers, sailors, and
airmen - who gave their lives, to defeat Nazi
Germany, are today providing weapons and
training, to Ukrainians... whose bodies and
banners bear the markings of Hitler’s
Third Reich.''
Saker commentator Steve from Oz:
''Many professional commentators, are not
aware that liberalism is the political arm
of economic individualism, and is
therefore anti-community.''
Elizabeth Peratrovich:
''Asking you to give me rights
implies that they are yours
to give.''
Charles Dickens:
“Have a heart that never hardens,
a temper that never tires, and
a touch that never hurts.”
Deputy Speaker of the State Duma of the Russian
Federation Pyotr Tolstoy, talking to La Republica:
“Despite the help from Europe and the hysteria of
Boris Johnson or Mario Draghi, we will finish the
operation when we see fit. I think we will stop
at the border with Poland.”
The scientific service of the Bundestag:
“Only if - in addition to the supply of weapons -
the instruction of the conflict party or training
in such weapons, were also an issue, would
one leave the secure area of non-warfare.”
The Bible:
''Nothing is innocent in man.''
Shep, Saker commentator:
''What is suspicious about the nationwide display of
Ukraine flags is that it all seems pre-organized and
done at a fairly large scale. I think there is an
intimidation factor here. The flag display
shuts down anyone who wants to
side with Russia.''
Mr. Enzweiler, a retired US Air Force, USAID
contractor and US Foreign Service Officer:
''CFR President, Mr. Haass, is the spokesperson
for Washington officialdom, on foreign policy.
Haass presents three possible war-ending
scenarios. Pouring more weapons into
Ukraine and prolonging the war, is
Haass’s recommendation under
all three scenarios.''
Mr Haass in his seminal statement:
"Whatever goals the West ultimately settles on,
requiring that the war end with a formal peace
agreement, should not be one of them."
Parfois (Saker commentator):
“To limit energy sanctions, the US attempted to bring
Syria to heel, so they could build pipelines across
its territory and bring natural gas and oil from the
Middle East and avoid the present crunch, but
that failed, so now they are scrambling.”
Yuri Podolyaka, Russian human:
''The battle goes on, not for some town in
Donbass and not even for all of Ukraine.
The battle is between radically different
worlds. The battle is for the sake of one
of the worlds winning - and going on to
build on our beautiful Earth the
civilization of the future.''
''Their side uses threats, murders, violence,
provocations and spreading total hatred.
Our side tries to bring to the world –
which so far is not really listening –
completely different values. And
for that reason, we have to win.
Because if we lose, they will
wipe us off the map. We and
our children will be either
killed -- or turned into the
'cesspool of hatred' that
they turned Ukraine
into... in a mere
8 years.''
''But I’m absolutely sure that this process is reversible
and, leaning on our ideology, we would not just win
in Ukraine... and resurrect the Ukraine we still
remember – the people and the country, not
to mention the government. But the end
goal is to win the battle in Washington.
As paradoxical as it may sound today,
we need to help American people to
get rid of the bloodsuckers... that
today are violating hundreds of
millions - or even billions - of
people across the planet,
with their hatred.''
Michael Hudson:
''...basically the oil companies and the US are
going to let the third-world countries go into
a crisis. If they default on their bonds, then
the US and the bond-holders... get to treat
Latin America like they treated Argentina
or Venezuela, and grab whatever assets
they have outside of their country. Like
Venezuela had investments in the US
and gold that it left in the Bank of
England that were grabbed.
''There’s going to be a huge asset grab. That
is supposed to be how this unfolds, and the
most obvious assets to the grabbed, are
going to be in Latin America and Africa.
Maybe some Asian deficit countries. So
this is the weakest link, and that’s why
there’s this fight within the IMF.. at the
upcoming meetings, to create these
special drawing rights, to give them
money: on the condition that there
is a class war.''
''...what we’re seeing, really, isn’t a war
between NATO and Russia. It’s a class
war of the neoliberals against labour
across the world, to establish the
power of finance over labour.''
''If you read what Klaus Schwab says at the World
Economic Forum, he said there are 20% too many
people in the world, especially in the Global South.
This is what all the big foundations are for. The
billionaires, they all say, ‘We’ve got to thin out
the population, there’s too many consumers
that don’t produce enough wealth for us.’ If
they produce wealth for themselves, that
doesn’t count, because that’s not for us,
and we don’t get it.''
''Obviously, anyone who looks at the basic
economic trends can see that this is
inevitable—and you have to assume
that this was discussed as part of
the whole big neoliberal plan of
the Biden administration and
the Deep State behind it.''
The Saker commentator, R. Robertson:
''Neoliberal economists and
their lawyers have decided,
1. Contracts must be honored in Euros
or Dollars as the contract stipulates.
2. Those Euros and Dollars will then
be canceled, per sanctions.
3. EU oligarchy gets free sh*t to sell
to EU customers at very high prices.
It is the ultimate in wealth production. Pay
nothing for something, and sell it at very
high prices during crisis. Western
oligarchs becoming history’s
greatest State Welfare
Queens. Which they
already are.''
Zero Hedge commentator
“not-me—it-was-the-dog”:
“In exchange for so-called Schrödinger Euros,
Vladimir Putin ´the merciless´ has decreed
the creation of Schrödinger NatGas,
whereby GazProm will thus “print”
cubic metres of natgas - with a
keyboard - 100% for free and
then transfer such gas over
to the EU purchaser’s
storage tanks, in the
EU albeit now under
“frozen” status.''
''So Russia never gets to use such euros –
which actually never see the light of day
– and accordingly are not inflationary in
any and every sense of the term, as
nobody else can use them either,
and Europe never gets to burn
such gas – which actually
never sees the light of...
pilot – and, accordingly,
does not contribute to
global warming!''
''Thus by not entering into any economy at all in
no way, shape, or form, the EU and Russia can
exchange lots of nothing for free, and Greta
will squirm with delight. Easy see ?''
John V. Walsh, April 28th, 2022:
''Out of 195 countries only 30 have
honoured US sanctions on Russia.''
John V. Walsh, April 28th, 2022:
''At the recent G-20 Summit a walkout led by the
US when the Russia delegate spoke, was joined
by the representatives of only three other G-20
countries, with 80% refusing to join!''
