Sundance:

Great article, but you do not tell us who the bankers are?

Curios to find out if that question, the what happened between the 2009 reset and the 2011 full geopolitical antagonism?

Hoping your recent trip to that part of the world may have uncovered whatever it was that went on behind the scenes to get us to where the world now is.

I assumed it had something to do with all those trips war-monger McCain took to Ukraine given his insipid hatred of Russia due to his, McCain’s, time in the Vietnam prison. Was it because he will ever be known as songbird he set out to make sure the world punishes his nemesis Russia even after his death?

But that’s just a guess given his hatred seems to have known no bounds even when it came to American citizens actual wants and needs, going out of his way (the thumbs down moment) when PDJT through Congress had that chance to fix the health care mess created by The One.

But: modern wars are not won by wonder-weapons. They are won by industrial production. Which we and Europe no longer do. But, Russia can. They didn’t “outsource” anything, and they don’t have to import anything.

Your “Almighty Dollar” is being phased out because of what YOU did. Stop and consider: how long would “real war” last before you ran out of … everything?

I’ve pondered that pivot regarding relations with Russia for years. They went from Hillary and her button and State Dept pushing the sale of Uranium company in the US, and their reserves to Russia to a coup (color revolution ) in Ukraine by 2014. Red line in Syria and ISIS, overthrowing Qaddafi, … lots was going on and all of it very aggressive.

NYT? You mean the State Department? Fake News – Fake War

What credible evidence does anyone have that would support the war in Ukraine nonsense?

“Ladies and gentlemen, the mask is off. Behold the demons who are running this country.”

They should all have cloven hooves.

And as for Americans killing POWs and wounded trying to surrender, executions for war crimes. Few acts are as atrocious as murdering those who are captive.

this is total BS (as usual) from Graham. There is nothing particularly unique about Ukraine minerals – they have coal and iron ore. Both are plentiful elsewhere. U.S. ideologues frequently make bogus claims about mineral resources to motivate reluctant colleagues to back their crazy neocon schemes. But where are the geological reports to back up Graham’s BS?

13th century bankers who are incest because they keep the money and control inside the family. At some point marrying inside the circle dissolves the circle or at least we hope so. They are terrified of us, Good.

The Royal Scots Greys and Russia | Foreign & Commonwealth Office

The most striking symbol of the relationship with Russia is the fact that Tsar Nicholas II was Colonel-in-Chief of the Royal Scots Greys from 1894 until his death. Queen Victoria appointed him Colonel-in-Chief on the occasion of his wedding to Victoria’s granddaughter, Alexandra Feodorovna. Tsar Nicholas wore the uniform when he visited Queen Victoria at Balmoral in Scotland in 1896. The Scots Greys played a prominent role in the visit, escorting the Tsar when he disembarked at Leith and later when he arrived at Ballater railway station.

The death of the Tsar in 1918 ended the relationship with the Royal Scots Greys until 1998 when the remains of the Tsar and other family members were interred at the Peter and Paul Fortress in St Petersburg. There were nine coffins containing Tsar Nicholas and his wife, Alexandra, three of the Tsar’s four daughters – Anastasia, Olga and Tatiana – and Alouzy Tropp, the Czar’s valet, Eugene Botkin, the royal physician, Ivan Kharitonov, a cook, and Anna Demidova, a lady-in-waiting. The remains of the Tsar’s other two children, Alexei and Maria have yet to join the family at their resting place in the Peter and Paul Fortress. President Yeltsin attended the service as did his Royal Highness Prince Michael of Kent. The then commanding officer of the Scots Greys (by then known as the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards), Colonel Andrew Phillips, and three colleagues, also flew into Russia the day before to participate. They took a prominent part in the service. An icon of Tsar Nicholas was presented to the Royal Scots Dragoon Guards.

The Obama/Biden Communist regime and our State Department has transformed our country into the EVIL EMPIRE that President Reagan feared, whilst the MEDIA and the GOPe slept.

For anyone following the conflict through the eyes of Ukrainians and Russian participants in their telegram posts, which are created in the hundreds on a daily basis, the presence of American officers and servicemen (along with French, British and Poles) was never a “secret”. Videos of Ukranians murdering Russian POWs have been published by the units themselves. In Mariupol, the last Azov holdouts trapped beneath the industrial plant shot and burned the bodies of dozens of US, French and British officers before surrendering. They failed to burn all the passports which were published. At least 3 underground bunker NATO command posts have been eliminated by Khinzhal missile strikes killing hundreds. Along with the crews of dozens of Patriot, ATACOM, HIMAR and Taurus weapon systems taken out. This is the most covered war in history, with unfiltered real time events documented and accessible directly by the public 24/7. There is no excuse for anyone to feign ignorance or be manipulated by propaganda.

Sundance, do you have an answer or speculation about the question you posed?

What exactly led to the complete reversal of intent?

Does the public acknowledgement of American boots on the ground change how we view the constant requests for more money?

In a sane world – long gone – this activity would have required action from Congress.

….Victoria Nuland….

The corporate elite in the United States and the UK worked hard through the Great Depression to export capital and jobs to the Soviet Union just as soon as FDR recognized the regime in Moscow. Here is how the bonanza in industrial might helped make the Soviet Union (now the Russian Federation) a ranking Superpower starting in the 1930s:

FORD MOTOR COMPANY—Constructed an entire automotive plant in Goki, Russia. In addition to automobiles, the Russians produced military vehicles including armored cars and tanks. The results can be read in the official WAR DEPARTMENT manual, “Identification of Foreign Armored Vehicles: German, Japanese, Russian, Italian, and French” dated June 30, 1941 in Section IV

Armored Car Engines:

BA Bronnieford Number 7 Armored Car–FORD ENGINE
Bronnieford 6 Wheeler—FORD ENGINE
BA Ford Amphibian—FORD ENGINE

Tank Engines
T-27—FORD or CHEVROLET
T-26–ARMSTRONG-SIDDELEY (UK)
T-28–VICKERS-ARMSTRONG (UK)

There were many factories built by US firms in the Soviet Union of the 1920s and 1930s. All of them were primarily used to make weapons. It wasn’t just the US firm which had its name on the product the plant was supposed to produce, such as tractors at the Chelyabinsk works which CATERPILLAR TRACTORS had built. There were subcontractors involved in the construction and produced many of each factory’s components and provided the engineering and personnel who trained Russians to run the factories.

Ford Motor Company—Gorki, Russia “automotive plant” and the Kharkov “tractor” plant.

Caterpillar Tractors—Largest tractor plant in the world at the time of its construction. First finished products were tanks. The Russians used mostly tracks on their tractors so that the assembly line could swiftly move from tractors to tanks and other armored vehicles. Another Caterpillar plant was constructed with the aid of 80 US firms to produce the T-37 tank. This plant was delivered in component parts and assembled in a building supplied by McClintock and Marshall company in Stalingrad. Albert Kahn, Inc. designed the plant while the Forge Shop was R. Smith, Inc. design. Those are not Russian names.

Without steel, tanks are impossible, so the largest steel plant in the world was constructed in the Soviet Union. Shortly after Stalin took power, he developed his “GOSPLAN” to expand the Russian economy starting with his plan for a “Steel Triangle.” American firms contracted with the Stalin regime to get “Gosplan” off the ground. The leading firm was Albert Kahn, Inc. of Detroit, Michigan, the designers of most of the US automotive industry. Kahn’s plans for Stalin were huge, emphasizing the construction of electrical equipment to feed the next wave of construction of finished product plants, such as steel and automotive works that require high-capacity generation of electricity. Kahn’s URALS ELMASH plant multiplied Russian electrical equipment by 7 times. General Electric’s factory in Kharkov produced large generators to aid in producing electricity for future Soviet manufacturing facilities like the largest steel plant in the world at that time, a copy of the US Steel Gary, Indiana works.

US firms like Nitrogen Engineering and Dupont brought the Soviet military-industrial complex the ability to mass produce refined nitrogen, a necessary component for high explosives and ammunition of all kinds, from artillery shells, aerial bombs, and small arms ammunition. The Czarist regimes could not mass produce refined nitrogen, but US firms solved that problem for Stalin and future Soviet and Russian Federation regimes.

Great article! However, you asked but didn’t answer why “Obama and Biden went from a friendly ‘reset’ with Russia in 2009 to full geopolitical antagonism in 2011.” I suggest it was the Clintons who drove the reset scenario to facilitate their Uranium One deal which was consummated in 2010. And I would argue that “full antagonism” with Russia wasn’t reached until 2013 when Russia banned “gay” propaganda to children in direct defiance of Obama’s prioritization of his global LGBT normalization campaign launched by presidential memorandum on 12/6/11.

Remember all of the farmers protests in the EU, where the tractors were blocking traffic, etc.

It was REPORTED that (lies, half truths) the farmers were protesting green requirements, like limiting their use of nytrogen fertiliser, diesel fuel and pestisides,..only partly true.

Ukraine farming operations were exempt from those EU restrictions, to “support Ukrain” (eyeroll) hence Ukrainian grain and produce could be sold for less, undercutting the EU farmers, and driving them out of business.

And, it really wasn’t “helping” Ukraine, as here, the Ukrainian farmers had presold their harvest (as in commodities futures) before the seeds went into the ground.

Sold to Cargill, ADM, Monsanto, who are all owned by Blackrock/Fidelity/State Street,…who set this whole thing up so that they could drive the EU farmers out of business, and buy up the farms at pennies on the $.

So, ONE aspect of the Ukraine operation is a LAND GRAB, and just another way these demons are profiting off of the war.
