In a recent interview on You Tube, Colonel Douglas MacGregor explained how Putin made every effort to ensure the security of the ethnic Russians living under siege in Ukraine by appealing to the US and EU to address the situation and settle on a way to stop the violence. Putin’s requests, however, fell on deaf ears. Here’s how MacGregor summed it up:
"Putin tried desperately to get the British, the French, the Germans and us to understand that his Russian citizens should be treated equally before the law just like Ukrainian citizens inside this large multi-ethnic state. (But) Zelensky and his friends said ‘No. Either you become what we are or you get out.’ And that resulted in this tragic (Russian) intervention.….
Russia had no interest in
‘conquering Ukraine’ or running into Kiev and ‘making peace at the
point of a gun’. But, now, Zelensky has been intransigent and his
handlers have been intransigent because we (The US) decided we were
going to ‘bleed Russia’. We were going to sanction them and destroy
their economy. We were going to kill hundreds of thousands of them and,
ultimately, bend Russia to our will and force them to become subjects
of the greater global American-domina
That hasn’t worked. All of the sanctions have backfired. It is now our
European allies who are in desperate trouble. We are in desperate
trouble too, only it is not quite as acute as it is in Europe. And, on
top of that, we haven’t succeeded in destroying the Russian military at
all. It’s held together very, very well and– as I said– right now you
have this economy-of-forc
Earlier I told
you what this is really about: There’s this attempt to destroy Russia.
We’ve decided to made it this blood-enemy that has to be eliminated
because it refuses to march down the path that Europe has.†("Massive
Buildupâ€,Colone
Truer words were never spoken: The US decided to make Russia its blood-enemy because it refuses to click-its-heels
So, now we’re in a full-blown ground war with Russia; a war that was concocted, instigated, funded, guided, and micromanaged by Washington. A war that—by any objective standard—is Washington’s war as much as Iraq and Afghanistan were Washington’s wars. The difference this time is that our enemy can not only defend himself, but has the wherewithal to reduce the continental United States to smoldering heap of rubble. We are reminded of a comment Putin made recently that seems to have slipped-by the media unnoticed. He said:
"We will defend our land with all the forces and resources we have, and we will do everything we can to ensure the safety of our people.â€
We hope that someone on the Biden team is smart enough to figure out what that means.
