A Way Out Of The War In Ukraine And Why World Leaders Will Not Use It

 

 

At a press briefing on the situation in Ukraine on Thursday a US Department of Defese spokesperson spokesperson gave an alarming response to reporter whether who asked if Ukraine forces' use of American weapons in its ongoing Kursk incursion is "consistent" with US policy of what Ukraine can and cannot do with US weapons. It has become increasingly clear that Ukrainian military forces are using American weapons to attack troops, civilians, and infrastructure deep inside Russia's borders.

Spokeswoman Sabrina Singh answered unequivocally "yes it is consistent with our policy" and explained that Washington has supported the need for "crossfire" from Ukraine back across the border onto Russian artillery positions along the border from which it is being attacked, even if that is on Russian territory. She framed the incursion into Russia's Kursk oblastan offensive which has entered day fouras 'defensive' in nature.

Singh reiterated that it remains US policy for Ukraine to avoid striking deep into Russian territory using American arms; however, when pressed about the possibility of a direct attack on Moscow, she simply said: "I’m not going to put a specific range on it" and thus refused to rule it out. But she added that "we still don't support long-range attacks into Russia."

To attack Russia directly would be insane and would certaily result in nuclear wat.

When you live in an insane world, as it appears we currently do, you look for insane solutions. The question is how do we bring, 'sanity' back? War means death for multitudes of innocent people wh have done nothing wrong but get caught up in it.

What is the real issue keeping this pointless war in Ukraine alive? The real issue is we have no way to reconcile our conclusions one to another. So societies are simply places of intellectual chaos and cultures are meaningles in the great game of geopolitical hegemony. We have no measure of reason or logic on hich to base dialogue and so we begin the slaughter. All the while self-serving liars roll around in the paradise that is a logical chaos where they manipulate one and all for their own enrichment and enhancement of their power. 

We, nations of the west and east, must find a way to bring order to Society, it must be an order sustained by the use, participation and elevation of logical discussion. Without such open dialogue order can only be achieved by one side or the other by brute force and violence

If we continue in a World Dominated by Military Intelligence and our reliance on, "Leaders" then you can just have lulls of peace in between your wars and wars on either side of your peace, While liars run loose to prey on your family and society. 

 If we transition to a world dominated by reason, tolerance and clearly marked boundaries then war will not be the first option and in a sense obsolete as there will be no identifiable enemy. All perspectives are part of the larger perspective. Not a perfect perspective, not a God, just better than you would get from leaders whose aim is World Domination.

Propaganda War: US Officials Working to Keep Russia, Europe at Odds


American eagle versus Russian Bear, but is that a Chinese Dragon in the background. (Image source)

NATO Supreme Allied Commander Philip Breedlove recently took the USA State Department and Pentagon hawks' campaign of demonising Russia up a gear, suggesting Russia and Syria have 'deliberately weaponized' refugees to 'break European resolve'. These irrational remarks, and the mainstream media's ability to convey them with a straight face, are an indication of a broken system, experts suggest.

Speaking to the US Senate Armed Services Committee this month, Breedlove said that " Russia and the Assad regime are deliberately weaponizing migration from Syria in an attempt to overwhelm European structures and break European resolve."

The commander also warned, that criminals and terrorists have mixed in with the refugees (surprise, surprise! Nobody would have suspected that would they?), and may now be planning attacks on the West. This too, apparently, is Russia's fault. Clearly, like all America Generals Breedlove is insane (I've read Catch22) and although it is indisputable that the middle east crisis was engineered by NATO members in collaboration with Saudi Arabia and other Sunni Muslim governments, he thinks westerners will swallow his fantasies because: American exceptionalism.

Analyzing the general's remarks, and the Western mainstream media's ability to convince many of its readers and listeners that there is truth behind his words, some Russian commentators are simply at a loss for words. "Generally, we have long become accustomed to Western propaganda's capability to work long and hard to 'prove' that white is black and black is white," Svobodnaya Pressa journalist Alexei Verhoyantsev noted.

"But in this case the charges simply look ridiculous. Is it really possible this time to convince the so-called international community that 'Russia is to blame' for all the ills of the world?"

Asked for comment, Alexander Shatilov, the dean of the faculty of sociology and political science at Moscow's Financial University, told the newspaper that this is a 'classical example' of using propaganda to reject even basic facts and logic.

"It's an open secret to everyone with any understanding of foreign policy that it is Washington that is behind the influx of refugees from North Africa and the Middle East to Europe. Firstly, in agreement with Turkey, the borders were opened. Secondly, American charitable organizations have been used to stimulate the flow of refugees to the Old World."

"And all this began five years ago, when the US catalyzed the Arab Spring and, in Libya, openly overthrew the authoritarian but robust regime of Muammar Gaddafi. Therefore, more than anyone, Americans should blame themselves," that is – their own government's policies.

Breedlove's remarks, according to Shatilov, have several goals, including "serving as one more reason to sculpt the 'enemy image' [of Russia] for the average European man in the street, and attempting to pressure Moscow, in order to get it to give up its support for Bashar al-Assad, or at least become more amenable to negotiations."

We at Boggart Abroad would have to agree, we have been pointing at the USA and its allies' policy of provoking Russia and intervening in the domestic politics of east European, middle eastern and African nations for a long time. We do not blame the ~USA alone, leaders of Britain, France and the European Union nations have been eager accomplices.

Is it to perhaps divert attention from the complete and utter mess western governments and bankers have made of the global economy, or the immigration disaster now threatening to drag the developed nations into third world dystopianism? Or is it perhaps to distract us from the several imminent humanitarian catastrophes about to be born out of the marriage of corporate money and tunnel visioned scientists who are totally incapable of seeing the wider implications of their experiments and thus are blind to the possibility of undesirable consequences.

In any even we are up shit creek and the idea that war could save us is even more idiotic that the notions that got us to this smelly, unhealthy location.

Call The Hackers: US Superplane Grounded By Software Bug

Over the past few months we have all been given the opportunity to be impress by the abilities of the highly advanced Russian warplane, the Sukhoi Su35. Even The Pentagon's top military aviation officials have been impressed, and we hear what the Chinese have up their sleeves is even more advanced. It was reported late last year during a particularly intense moment in US / Russian relations in the middle east that Pentagon officials had warned Obama not to risk triggering any direct conflict with Russia because the Russians could "obliterate US military capablities."


How did this happen?

Well the Russians focused on what is achievable while American technologists got drawn into a lot of Hollywood fantasy stuff. And the result was:
The troubled creation of the Lockheed Martin F-35 is plagued by yet another technical glitch.

The Lockheed Martin F-35 is not only an extremely expensive aircraft, but is also probably the most software-driven plane ever constructed. And ironically, it is a new software glitch that now threatens the US Air Force’s plans to finally declare F-35 operationally deployable in the near future.
According to IHS Jane’s, the problem lies with the current version of software that runs the warplane’s radar, making it unstable and thus affecting the aircraft’s performance against other airborne targets.
"What would happen is they'd get a signal that says either a radar degrade or a radar fail —something that would force us to restart the radar," Harrigian explained.
The problem was apparently first discovered during tests in late 2015.
"Lockheed Martin discovered the root cause, and now they're in the process of making sure they take that solution and run it through the [software testing] lab," Harrigian said, adding that USAF is scheduled to receive the new software by the end of March.
The F-35 fighter jet is probably the most expensive military aircraft ever developed, with an estimated final cost of $400 billion which is twice the original estimate.
Problems with the F-35 have included flaws in its fuel and hydraulic systems, poor cockpit visibility, faulty radar and ejection seats that don't work. The entire fleet was grounded in 2014 after an engine caught fire as a test pilot prepared to take off.


F35 - nice decals but can it get off the ground?

New Report Shows How Hillary Clinton Sold Obama on Regime Change in Libya


Be-Hill-zebub, Makes HP Lovecraft's uber - demon Cthulhu look like a cuddly kitten (Image source)


We have tried not to take sides in the US Primaries campaigns to choose the parties' candidates in November's presidential election. We British get rather irate when Barack Obama or John Kerry starts lecturing us on how we should stay in the EU because while it may be in Washington's best interests for Britain to be in the EU, most of us feel it is not in the best interests of the British people.

We that in mind, it is perfectly understandable that U.S. voters get annoyed when British liberals start saying "You must not vote for Donald Trump, or voices from Britain's right say "You must not vote for Bernie Sanders. So, because this is a world news blog we have tried to report on Sanders and Trump from the perspective of amused onlookers watching the panic these two mavericks are causing for the political and media establishment.

The candidate we do make an exception on however is the truly horrifying Hillary Clinton. We have no compunction about lobbying against Hillary as responsible citizens of the world who put the interests of people in the USA, Europe and the third world, especially the third world because they struggle to take care of themselves, ahead of the interests of a global wealthy elite who profit from war and are quite prepared to use financial muscle to make sure corporate profit wins out over public interest.

So US voters, vote for who you like, but be warned about what you and the rest of the world are in for if this awful woman becomes your president.

A new in-depth report from The New York Times damns former Secretary of State to perdition for her role in committing  the US government’s to involvement in the war in Libya. Previous reports show Clinton leading the push for the USA to enter what was a small, local war and overthrow former Libyan Leader Muammar Gaddafi, but this report with on-the-record comments numerous current and former Obama Administration officials offers a line by line account of how Hillary nagged Obama into getting involved.
.
The most prominent name cited is that of former Secretary of Defense Robert Gates, who claimed that the decision to go to war in Libya was heavily influenced by Clinton. Gates says her input made the difference in a “51-49” decision that ultimately destroyed Libya, turning what had been Africa's most prosperous and civilised nation into a failed state with no coherent government, and allowed ISIS to gain a foothold in Africa.

The analysis supports the view that Hillary Clinton learned nothing from the Iraq War debacle. According to the NYT, “The lessons of the Libya experience have not tempered her more aggressive approach to international relations.”

Who can forget Hillary's infamous quote on the ignominious death of Gaddafi, "We came, we saw, he died". It is a sentence that exposes what a first crass bitch she is. Make no mistake, Hillary Clinton is the war candidate in 2016.

Another part of the report claims that after a meeting with Westernized Libyan exiles in what appears to be an eerie parallel to the Ahmed Chalabi con, Clinton became convinced that Libya could become a thriving democracy if Gaddafi was overthrown. She then worked tirelessly to ensure the US jumped into the war, pushing back against then-Defense Secretary Gates, National Security Advisor Tom Dolan, and Vice President Joe Biden, who wanted to stay out of the conflict. Hillary was obsessed with the idea of bombing the small nation (pop 5,000,000) which she probably thought was an easy win for the USA with allies France and the UK (the FUKUS axis) after the Bush era debacles of Iraq and Afghanistan.

Gates even recalled telling President Barack Obama and others in on the Libya meetings that he and the Pentagon had more than enough responsibilities with the Iraq and Afghanistan missions, saying, “I think at one point I said, ‘Can I finish the two wars I’m already in before you guys go looking for a third one?’”

The answer was no, Hillary had OCD about war and bombing third world counties. Though there was no solid intelligence on what exactly Gaddafi would or would not do regarding the opposition, then-Secretary Clinton began aggressively lobbying other countries to support the war effort and help the rebels in Libya. Another Vietnam style quagmire quickly followed in Syria of course, and that trigger another flare up of hostilities in Iraq where the USA had been engaged for ten years when Libya kicked off.

Who Runs America, The White House Or The Shadow Government?



A report from UK Newspaper The Daily Mirror, the date isn't clear but it looks like 1983 discussing The Bilderberg group long before the groups existence was acknowledged (Image source). It has long been obvious that the leaders we elect do not rule in our interests, but the interests of a barely visible elite.

President Barack Obama’s meeting with Russian leader Vladimir Putin at the G20 summit over the weekend, reported by western mainstream media as a triumph for Obama's negotiating skills (the Russian leader took a rather different view) does not lok right alongside yet another blitz of provocative rhetoric from The Pentagon and the Department of Defence towards Moscow. In view of the USA's constant push towards all out war with Russia, one has to ask who is in control: Obama or the generals?

The two leaders held a face-to-face discussion on the first day of the G20 conference in Antalya, Turkey. The gathering of the world’s top 20 economic nations was dominated by the massive terror attack in Paris two days earlier, which claimed at least 129 lives and hundreds more wounded, and the progress of the war in Syria and Iraq against ... ISIS or the Assad regime in Syria depending on who you believe.

Obama’s first meeting with Putin since Russia launched its military intervention in Syria nearly seven weeks ago – was described by the White House as “constructive”. Mr. Putin commented that Obama is "a child" as the American President, after failing to stop the advance of ISIS for over a year, despite the supposed technological superiority of US sponsored guerillas against ISIS rebels. The truth is the US priority was never to defeat ISIS (the US role in training and equipping the terror group has been acknowledged by US Senators and senior military officers) but to depose Assad, whose Shi'ite regime stands in the way of US / Saudi plans to build a pipeline from the Gulf to the Mediterranean to undermine Russia's dominance in supplying natural gas to Europe.

The American president even appeared to welcome Russian airstrikes against terror groups fighting the Syrian government, most prominently Islamic State (IS) jihadists, also known as ISIL although earlier last week Washington Hawk, Senator Lindsay Graham called for US aircraft to 'shoot down' Russian planes suspected of attacking US trained and supplied anti-Assad forces. The Russian government has always said it will not permit the overthrow of its ally Assad.

"As the diplomacy continues, President Obama welcomed efforts by all nations to confront the terrorist group ISIL and noted the importance of Russia’s military efforts in Syria focusing on the group," were the weasel words of a White House spokesman.

That’s quite a contrast in substance and tone from a speech made by Defense Secretary Ashton Carter only a week before.

In a blustering tirade, Carter labeled Russia a “global threat” in a speech at the Reagan Library in California. He denounced Russia for “nuclear saber-rattling” and “aggression” in Europe and he slammed Putin’s military operation in Syria as “throwing gasoline” on a fire, which, he said, would lead to more terrorism across the Middle East.

We can only wonder what planet the sabre - rattling Carter lives on
