America’s Dangerous Geopolitical Chess Game

America is playing a dangerous geopolitical chess game with Russia.  But for what purpose?  What good can come from this direct challenge to Russia?  America’s strategy reads like a playbook from PNAC, the Wolfowitz Doctrine, and Zbigniew Brzezinski’sThe Grand Chessboard: American Primacy And Its Geostrategic Imperatives‘.  While the average American is busy working, paying taxes and taking care of their families, ‘the powers that shouldn’t be’ are busy plotting and planning their next global conquest.  To be sure, this is not all America’s fault but rooted in Quigley’s Anglo-American Establishment‘s plan for a single world government; enabled and condoned by the globalists in Western Europe.   The table —or in this case the geopolitical chessboard— has been set.  What Russia will do to counteract this direct threat is the big question.  After the fall of the Berlin Wall, America assured Russia that NATO forces would not move one inch further East.  Russia relaxed and America lied.  Russia is no longer relaxed and America’s grand scheme has been revealed to all with functioning brains and eyes to see.  Unable to take care of her veterans of countless ‘kinetic military actions‘ or even to fix the potholes in the streets, America has decided rather to ramp up the goal of surrounding Russia and China to make real the psychopathic dreams of Wolfowitz and Brzezinski.  What other conclusions can we reach after America’s orchestrated Ukraine putsch and the expansion of NATO forces on Russia’s doorstep?  America, it seems, is itching for a war at any cost and to damage Russia.  [Note: You can read much about this sorry history at ClearNFO by searching on the word ‘Ukraine’.]  Is the plan to distract the world and the American people from the impending economic catastrophe — precipitated by unprecedented sovereign debt created out of thin air by the globalists– or does America really believe she can bludgeon Russia into submission and win anything worth having?  History should have taught the Pentagon planners in Washington that Russia is no easy mark.  It is my opinion that Russia will not be dragged quietly into the bloody nightmare of the Wolfowitz-Brzezinski doctrine.  Review the facts presented below and make up your own mind.

U.S. Military Moves To Russian Borders For First Time Ever

NATO SURROUNDING RUSSIA

 

From Willy Wimmer’s letter below … #9. North of Poland, it is important to maintain the complete control of entry from St. Petersburg to the Baltic Sea. [6] Thus this means to cut away Russia from its Baltic Sea connection and therefore to cut it off from Europe.

 

 

 

Mr Gerhard Schroeder, MP
Chancellor of the Federal Republic of Germany,
Federal Chancellery,
Schlossplatz 1, 10178 Berlin

Berlin, 05-02-2000

Dear Chancellor,

Last weekend, I was in the Slovakian capital of Bratislava, where I had the opportunity to participate in a conference jointly organized by the US State Department and the American Enterprise Institute (the institute of the Republican Party foreign policy) with focus on the themes of the Balkan and NATO enlargement.

The event was attended by high-ranking personalities already reflected in the presence of several prime ministers and foreign and defense ministers from the region. Of the many important issues that could be dealt with under that topic, some deserve particularly to be reported.

1. The organizers requested that the Allies achieve recognition of the independence of the state of Kosovo, according to international law. [1]

2. The organizers declared that the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was beyond any jurisdiction, in particular beyond the Final Act of Helsinki. [2]

3. The European legal system is an obstacle to the implementation of NATO plans. The American legal system was more suitable for this, even when being used in Europe.

4. The war against the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia was conducted to revise a false decision made by General Eisenhower in World War II. Due to strategic reasons, the decision to deploy US soldiers in the region had to be rectified. [3]

5. The European Allies went along with the war in Yugoslavia in order to overcome de facto the dilemma caused by the April 1999 ‘New Strategic Concept’, which was enacted by the Alliance and the European predisposition of an existing mandate from the UN or the OSCE.

6. Irrespective of the subsequent legalistic European interpretation, where the enlarged task field of NATO in the Yugoslavian war exceeded the contract territory, it was an exceptional case, obviously a precedent which anyone at any time could and would rely on. [4]

7. The goal of the recently pending NATO expansion, is to restore the geographical situation between the Baltic Sea and Anatolia, as it had been at the time of the height of Roman expansion. [5]

8. In order to achieve this, Poland is to be surrounded in the north and south by democratic neighboring states. Romania and Bulgaria are to secure the ground connection to Turkey, Serbia (most likely to ensure a US military presence) was to be permanently excluded from European development.

9. North of Poland, it is important to maintain the complete control of entry from St. Petersburg to the Baltic Sea. [6]

10. In each case, the right of self-determination is given priority over all other provisions or rules of international law. [7]

11. The assessment, according to which NATO, when attacking the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia actually infringed upon international rule and, above all, any relevant provisions of international law, did not evoke contradiction. [8]

After this very candidly run event and in view of participants and organizers, one cannot help but make an assessment of the statements made at this conference.

In the global context and in order to achieve their goals, the American side, deliberately and intendedly wants to lever out the international legal system which was developed as a result of two world wars in the last century. Power shall precede law. Where international law stands in the way, it will be eliminated.

When a similar development happened to the League of Nations, the Second World War was not far off. This type of thinking which considers its own interests as being absolute, can only be called totalitarianism.

Sincerely,

Willy Wimmer
Member of Parliament,
Chairman oft he CDU district association Lower Rhine,
Vice-President of the OSCE Parliamentary Assembly

[1] So far, the Kosovo continues to nominally be a province of Serbia, which in turn is a constituent republic of Yugoslavia. Maintaining this status, had been a prerequisite for the termination of the so-called Kosovo war in June 1999. Officially, maintaining this status is the program of the West until today.
[2] The Helsinki Final Act, the so-called CSCE Order, had put down the foundations of coexistence of the European states in 1975. These principles included amongst others the inviolability of borders.
[3] This seems to refer to the Allied invasion of Europe during the Second World War. Churchill et.al. had demanded then that an Allied invasion of the Balkans was to take place. Instead, Eisenhower as Commander of Chief of the Allied forces commanded invasions of Sicily (1943) and France (1944). As a result, there was no Western occupation of the Balkans at the end of the Second World War.
[4] On the part of NATO, the 1999 Kosovo war was performed without UN mandate. Such a mandate would have complied with the wish of the European governments but not the American government. The latter wants to act preferably self-confidently without international restrictions. Items 5 and 6 apparently meant that with this war a) the European states would have overcome their commitment towards their public regarding such a UN mandate and b) a precedent for future operations without UN mandate was created.
[5] The Roman Empire never extended to the Baltic Sea. Should Wimmer here have reported the statements correctly, ‘Roman’ on the one hand, means the Roman Empire, and on the other hand, the Roman church.
[6] Thus this means to cut away Russia from its Baltic Sea connection and therefore to cut it off from Europe.
[7] Emphasizing this right of self-determination, the American Wilsonianism, coined after the former president Woodrow Wilson, shows itself once again, according to Rudolf Steiner who was a main opponent of the founding of the threefold movement. Steiner saw this as a program for the “destruction of the coexistence of the European peoples”. It allows the destruction of almost all European countries by accentuating “minority problems”.
[8] Apparently, this is about the reactions to a Wimmer draft. The conference participants were apparently aware of these violations against the provisions of international law, yet they did not care.

Macedonia: Kiev Version 2.0

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | February 17, 2015

Top U.S. diplomat Victoria Nuland meets with Tyahnybok and Yatsenyuk weeks before they were handed power under Ukraine’s new US-backed interim government in Kiev Version 1.0:

nuland-ukraine-ldrsThe brilliant and very plugged-in Wayne Madsen provides us additional details on the US State Department’s next regime change in the article linked below.   Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs, Victoria Nuland, was working on Kiev Version 2.0 in Skopje, Macedonia when she got caught. Her target this time must have learned from Kiev Version 1.0.   The US assembled the same cast of characters as they did in the Ukraine coup including the infamous George Soros. It is interesting to note that Victoria’s husband Robert Kagan co-founded PNAC. Small world, eh? This tells me that Victoria has a lot more invested in these regime changes than her government paycheck.

“Nuland has been charged by Macedonian intelligence with conspiring with Zaev of the Macedonian Social Democratic Union of Macedonia (SDSM), the former Communist Party that has been thoroughly co-opted by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Soros operative. Also charged in the attempted putsch against Gruevski is Radmila Sekerinska. Zaev and Sekerinska are said by Macedonian insiders to be nothing more than fronts for former Prime Minister and President Branko Crvenkovski who continues to head up the SDSM and accept large amounts of largesse from such CIA NGO laundry operations as the National Democratic Institute (NDI), National Endowment for Democracy (NED), Freedom House, and Soros’s Open Society Institute (OSI) to foment a themed revolution against Gruevksi’s right-of-center VMRO-DPMNE government.”  Wayne Madsen

Russia: Unexamined Assumptions

David Brown Pic SnapShotThe Article below on Poland’s new National Security Strategy (NSS) is admittedly from a Russian perspective but informative and interesting none the less. Sometimes we must survey more than one story in our attempts to triangulate on the truth. Of course, this assumes that it is the truth we are after, eh? It is too obvious to me that some just don’t want to be bothered with the truth; and prefer rather to cling to their unexamined assumptions which deserve updating based on the facts on the ground readily available and documented. And it is a demonstrable fact that the Soviet Union built up a lot of ill will in the region and the world with their heavy-handed, authoritarian tactics since the October revolution of 1917 birthed the USSR in 1922, until its dissolution in 1991. Are there still vestiges of the old Soviet guard? Of course, but this sorry history should not be used to blind us of the facts we can prove today. The facts are that the USA has moved closer to the old authoritarian USSR and Russia has moved closer to the old freer USA. Neither are pure, however and require close scrutiny and a watchful eye.

SPUTNIK: Paranoia and Propaganda Dominate Poland’s New National Security Strategy

What Brian Williams and his pals are NOT telling you

Brian W Liar Lyin Brian

Yes, they lie to us constantly and as they are found out, a decreasing percentage of Americans tune in to watch, but there is a more sinister side:  Here are a few things Brian Williams and his pals are NOT telling us …

  1. The War in Ukraine is completely orchestrated by the USA and NATO
  2. Obama removed the democratically elected government in Kiev, Ukraine (Western Ukraine) and installed his own puppet government backed by neo-Nazis
  3. Out of fear of the new Obama regime in Kiev, 90% of the citizens in Crimea (Eastern Ukraine) voted to associate with Russia for protection
  4. Ignoring the Crimean vote and to support Obama’s propaganda, the US News media falsely reports that Russia invaded Crimea
  5. Joe Biden’s crack-head son –Hunter Biden—was appointed to board of major Ukrainian gas company
  6. Ukraine Agreed to a Monsanto “Land Grab” to Get a $17 Billion Loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF)
  7. IMF said no more money to Kiev until they get the Donbas area under control
  8. Obama’s puppet in Kiev starts bombing cities and villages in the Donbas area (central Ukraine) killing thousands of innocent men, women and children.
  9. Kiev forces start to defect this illegal and criminal genocide orchestrated by Obama and team
  10. Obama puppet starts to shell Donbas area cities with white phosphorus
  11. Complete news blackout by the US Press on the human carnage and atrocities committed by the Obama regime in Kiev.

Some lies and omissions –with the intent to deceive– are more impactful than merely fluffing one’s resume, eh?

Russia and Turkey’s Gas Pipeline Deal: Implications for the European Union

Some helpful definitions below  …

TEP: Third Energy Package


OMV is an integrated international oil and gas company, headquartered in Vienna. Its main businesses are exploration and production of oil and gas, natural gas distribution and power generation, and refining and marketing oil

Alexei Miller
Alexey Borisovich Miller is Deputy Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chairman of the Management Committee of Russian energy company Gazprom, Russia’s largest company and the world’s biggest natural gas producer.

Nabucco project
The Nabucco-West pipeline (also referred to as the Turkey–Austria gas pipeline) is a proposed natural gas pipeline from the Turkish-Bulgarian border to Austria. It is a modification of the original Nabucco Pipeline project, which was to run from Erzurum in Turkey to Baumgarten an der March in Austria. The aim of the Nabucco pipeline is to diversify the natural gas suppliers and delivery routes for Europe, thus reducing European dependence on Russian energy. The original project was backed by several European Union member states and by the United States, and was seen as a rival to the South Stream pipeline project. The main supplier was expected to be Iraq, with potential supplies from Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, and Egypt.[1] The main supply for the Nabucco West was to be Shah Deniz gas through the proposed Trans-Anatolian gas pipeline (TANAP).

Shah Deniz energy consortium
The Shah Deniz consortium announced today that 25-year sales agreements have been concluded for just over 10 billion cubic metres a year (BCMA) of gas to be produced from the Shah Deniz field in Azerbaijan as a result of the development of Stage 2 of the Shah Deniz project. Nine companies will purchase this gas in Italy, Greece and Bulgaria.

The Shah Deniz Stage 2 project is set to bring gas directly from Azerbaijan to Europe for the first time, opening up the Southern Gas Corridor.

Levant
Countries and regions located in the Levant region (Cyprus, Hatay, Israel, Jordan, Lebanon, Palestine, and Syria)
Countries and regions sometimes included in the Levant region (Iraq and Sinai)
Entire territory of countries whose regions are included in the Levant region (Egypt and Turkey)

Atlanticism is a belief in the importance of cooperation between Europe and the United States and Canada regarding political, economic, and defense issues, with the purpose of maintaining the security and prosperity of the participating countries, and to protect the values that unite them.

Obama the Destroyer: Transforming America

Obama Evil

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | November 03, 2014

This is one evil man whose life is built on lies and deceit and whose mission is the total destruction of America:

“We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” — Barack Obama, October 30, 2008

Amazingly, this man –who couldn’t even pass an FBI background check– was crammed down the throat of America by the MSM and the Democrat Party.  He has purged top military brass, replacing them with his political yes-men.  He has corrupted major agencies of the government with his crony appointments.  He has appointed the corrupt and lawless Eric Holder as AG of the Department of Justice. He has used the IRS as his own private army against the American people.  Obama is a tyrant and a war monger who has involved us in countless orchestrated conflicts across the globe using lies and deceit thereby reducing America’s respect among the world community and replacing it with a seething global hatred. And he has lost the grand opportunity to bring Russia into a mutually beneficial partnership by overthrowing the democratically elected government in Ukraine and threatening war on Russia’s doorstep.

RUSSIA WANTS WAR

by DAVID BROWN | CLEARNFO.com | November 02, 2014

So the CIA and State Department implemented a not so covert foreign regime change in Russia’s next door neighbor Ukraine, overthrowing the democratically elected government; and then magically the U.S. blamed Russia as the aggressor; the United States’ newly minted puppet government then started bombing innocent Russians in central and eastern Ukraine killing thousands of innocent civilians. Crimea which is mostly Russian voted overwhelmingly to join Russia for protection. The U.S. MSM chirped right in telling the world how evil Putin was and that he amazingly was the aggressor and that he had designs to relive the glory of the old USSR. All 100% B.S. The US psychopaths in Ukraine’s capital in the West, Kiev, continued to bomb and butcher innocent civilians in the Donets Basin or Donbas region of Ukraine. BTW, proving once again that the word of America is worthless, In 1990 Moscow was assured that there would be no expansion of NATO into Eastern Europe. In exchange for Moscow permitting a reunified Germany to be a NATO member.

“The corrupt and duplicitous Clinton regime broke the agreement that the George H.W. Bush administration gave Moscow in 1990. In exchange for Moscow permitting a reunified Germany to be a NATO member, Washington agreed that there would be no expansion of NATO to the east. Gorbachev, US Secretary of State James Baker, US ambassador to Moscow Jack Matlock, and declassified documents all testify to the fact that Moscow was assured that there would be no expansion of NATO into Eastern Europe.”

–October 6, 2014 Paul Craig Roberts

Now, the U.S. has implemented economic sanctions against Russia which have damaged the Russian economy. This, BTW is an act of war. Russia has been backed into a corner and still has nuclear weapons. Obama and team are playing a dangerous game of lies and deceit.

NATO bases surround Russia

The US caught on the phone planning the overthrow of the democratically elected government in Ukraine. BTW, the U.S. spent $5 billion on covert NGOs to foment civil war along the Gladio operation MO. This included hiring snipers to shoot and kill both the Ukraine police and the protestors.

Cut-out of a phone call between two American fun guys talking about maidan’s puppets. The actors are: Victoria Nuland: US-Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Geoffrey R. Pyatt: United States Ambassador to Ukraine.

How to Start a War and Lose An Empire By Dmitry Orlov

Great Analysis by Dmitry Orlov.  Partial extract below…

How to Start a War and Lose An Empire
By Dmitry Orlov

“But this is only the beginning. The Russians seem to have finally realized to what extent the playing field has been slanted against them. They have been forced to play by Washington’s rules in two key ways: by bending to Washington’s will in order to keep their credit ratings high with the three key Western credit rating agencies, in order to secure access to Western credit; and by playing by the Western rule-book when issuing credit of their own, thus keeping domestic interest rates artificially high. The result was that US companies were able to finance their operations more cheaply, artificially making them more competitive. But now, as Russia works quickly to get out from under the US dollar, shifting trade to bilateral currency arrangements (backed by some amount of gold should trade imbalances develop) it is also looking for ways to turn the printing press to its advantage. To date, the dictat handed down from Washington has been: “We can print money all we like, but you can’t, or we will destroy you.” But this threat is ringing increasingly hollow, and Russia will no longer be using its dollar revenues to buy up US debt. One proposal currently on the table is to make it impossible to pay for Russian oil exports with anything other than rubles, by establishing two oil brokerages, one in St. Petersburg, the other, seven time zones away, in Vladivostok. Foreign oil buyers would then have to earn their petro-rubles the honest way—through bilateral trade—or, if they can’t make enough stuff that the Russians want to import, they could pay for oil with gold (while supplies last). Or the Russians could simply print rubles, and, to make sure such printing does not cause domestic inflation, they could export some inflation by playing with the oil spigot and the oil export tariffs. And if the likes of George Soros decides to attack the ruble in an effort to devalue it, Russia could defend its currency simply by printing fewer rubles for a while—no need to stockpile dollar reserves.

The Great Reset Button

As a financially weak and corrupt U.S. –having wasted its treasure on pointless wars, gluttonous foreign bankers and crony pals– foolishly tries to bully Russia and China, this duo will have none of it. China and Russia are now moving further and further away from a possible compromise with the old mono-polar world of the ‘Anglo-American Establishment’ represented today by the US, EU & NATO. Everywhere you look these two old adversaries (China and Russia) are forging new agreements with each other ($400bn Gazprom deal) and other nations (BRICS, Africa, Argentina, etc.); at the same time, Russia and China are preparing for war … investing heavily in their military to counter the rabid U.S. foreign policy intent on encircling both Russia and China with double-dealing NATO and their legions of murderous proxy forces; both are preparing for an unnecessary war fomented for unknown reasons by the U.S.; while the U.S.’s vassal states are pulled along in the wake of the once great and mighty U.S. Ship, powering full-speed ahead over an unknown and unknowable abyss unaware of the jagged rocks below.
