Putin says ‘no force ever existed to conquer Russian people’

Our own WWII commemorations pale in significance to Russia’s, because fewer American families suffered

[ Editor’s Note: I knew that Putin would have his usual historical and laser-focused comments for this year’s Victory Parade speech. It is an easy job him because the Russian people don’t really need to have anything explained to them about how best to deal with threats to the homeland.

Their losses in WWII dwarfed the US’, despite America’s huge material investment. The Russian factories also made a larger investment, not only in equipment that got used up constantly in the never-ending counterattacks to drive the Germans out, but in their deciding early on that they would use their manpower advantage to wear the Germans down by relentless attrition.

The rank and file Soviet military incurred major losses, but a replacement conveyor belt kept new divisions flowing toward the front, to keep their momentum going toward its final day in Berlin. The Stalingrad offensive turned the war, when new fully-equipped Soviet infantry and armored divisions appeared out of nowhere to the shock of the German command.

No one hates war more than the Russians do. This is why the manufactured US hype of the “Russian threat” is such a devious fraud on the American people. The Russian people would never politically support any such offense, despite what the US’ past NATO-clown General Breedlove continually crowed about Putin wanting to sweep across Ukraine in a few days and being a threat to Eastern Europe.

It was a shame on the American veteran community that Breedlove was not publicly denounced for his “fake news” on his Russian threat scam, when our military spending is ten times Russia’s, something that mass media consistently failed to mention.

Jim W. Dean -- Syria: American Un-exceptionalism Laid Bare

Syria: American Un-exceptionalism Laid Bare

“Never think that war, no matter how necessary, nor how justified, is not a crime.” 

― Ernest Hemingway,

Like the terrorist that sends an anonymous threat, the US current psyop against the Syrian anti-terrorism campaign has utilized anonymous sources to report that Washington is considering “limited” attacks on Syrian and Russian forces to encourage them to break off their driving the Western backed terrorists out of Aleppo. You just can’t make this stuff up.

Because such attacks would be an illegal without a UN resolution, something impossible with Russian and Chinese vetoes, that speed bump would be overcome by using “covert” airstrikes. A quick VeteransToday survey of retired Intel pros showed a consensus that this was one of the dumbest ideas by a US government since the Bush(43) gangsters went into Iraq to get Saddam’s nukes and chemical weapons, which he did not have.

The Pentagon-CIA pitch was that such strikes would drive Assad to the negotiation table. We call this the language of lunatics, who want to start a war because they feel impervious to being labeled the wanton aggressor. They are lunatic supremacists, a term I just invented.

We have been watching the war of words built up to these overt threats over the past two weeks. The US ended all pretense of seeking a Syrian war resolution by announcing it would discontinue joint efforts with Russia in Geneva. To embarrass the country even more, US officials once again attempted to blame the failure on Russia by claiming it was violating the ceasefire with its bombing missions to support ending the terror siege in East Aleppo.

These officials ignored the simple fact that the ceasefire expired after the first week, so the Syrian coalition could not have broken it by acts taken afterwards. I would not have used the harsh term un-exceptionalism if the ceasefire had simply failed. It did not. It was strangled by those that wanted to kill it – by the Jihadis, their Gulf State supporters, the Pentagon, and how much by Obama and Kerry we can’t be sure at this point.

When Obama did not ask for someone’s head from the Pentagon for the Deir Ezzor bombing of the Syrian troops there, he effectively put his seal of approval on the act, adding anotherunexceptional stain to his record. He allowed his administration to instantly blame the Syrian coalition for the nighttime attack on the aid convoy on the testimony only of the pro-insurgent White Hat relief group, when his own Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff told Congress that he had no evidence of Russian involvement.

General Dunford lied by omission because he knew that the Syrian Airforce was not equipped for night strikes, and that, with the US total battlefield surveillance, he knew exactly where every Russian plane flew, and would have shared the radar plot of alleged Russian involvement, which he did not. That again was very unexceptional.
