I will start with an edited version of the Dmitry Medvedev’s (deputy chairman of the Security Council of Russia) recent speech:
“Why are Kiev’s neo-Nazis so eager to take back Donbas, which is completely alien to them?
Why are they desperately supported in this by all those that now guard the Western world: from the half-dead Biden to those in the so-called Baltics? The reason is banal: they need money.
Both the clique of Zelensky, who led the economy of the dying country to disaster, but who will have to pay the bills of the sponsors of the bloody massacre. The latter have spent a lot on someone else’s war, it irritates the people of their countries. So a payback is needed. The question is not about a sick cocaine boy in a dirty green T-shirt. The boy will be gone soon, but the debt will remain.
And that has to be paid off with interest. But the empty coffers of the neo-Nazi state will not fill up by themselves. The western patrons understand that very well. Their goal is not at all to enrich the unfortunate Ukrainian people, whom they have never cared about. Access to mineral resources is what can compensate for the flows of irretrievable money, which are melting right before our eyes in the process of endless theft of Kiev’s oligarchs.
Think about it: according to open sources, the total value of Ukraine’s mineral resource base is estimated at almost $14.8 trillion, with $7.3 trillion coming from the Luhansk and Donetsk People’s Republics. That is, almost half of the national wealth of the former Ukraine is Donbass! Therefore, what has been lost by the Kiev regime must be repaid. The lives of ordinary Ukrainians do not matter. That is the whole cynical interest of the Anglo-Saxon world. They are already directly and unashamedly voicing such plans. A crony of Ukraine, Senator Graham recently called Ukrainian minerals “critically important, [and] if Ukraine wins, both Ukraine and the West will be able to use them”. Well, he’s quite open about it. The Western “allies” can continue to pour endless funds into their Kiev puppets and reap their sorrowful harvest. But the fact remains that the economic basis of Ukrainian statehood has been completely undermined. The resource base illegally obtained by the Banderites at the end of the twentieth century has now returned to its native country.
The Ukraine war, like its predecessor in Afghanistan, has always been about circulating money to unbelievably rich American corporations which had close ties to a linked group of Ukrainian oligarchs and other participants throughout the west. Julian Assange wrote about it years ago, he had ferreted out the truth: Wars make money. It was true in WWI and WWII and it has been true ever since. Huge fortunes were made and sustained by backroom investors from both sides in WWI and II, and the taste for war-driven profits grew through the twentieth century. The Afghan war, after twenty years, needed a successor and lo and behold: the Ukraine war was provoked into being to take over. It became serious and will probably last for five or six years until the Ukraine military fully collapses.
As Ukraine starts to run down about 2027, those gigantic profiteers such as BlackRock and its connections, will need a follow-on, and by then, they will probably have Iran ready to begin its middle eastern expansion. Iran doesn’t want just Israel: It wants Iraq, Syria and Lebanon. This new Middle eastern war has the potential to flare into a very major war eventually, involving Turkey, Egypt and Saudi Arabia – a three sided war.
In the Ukraine, I have long thought that Russia would stop at the Dnieper River and make that the new Ukrainian frontier. However voices are now speculating that Russia knows that NATO has realised that it cannot deal with Russia and her international economic backers, and she will move across the Dnieper. I still doubt that.
It is worth moving past the misinformation and ridiculous ideas voiced by western MSM and realise that suddenly, through BRICS, and trade deals, Russia has economic-industrial strength exceeding that of US-Europe. And she has defence industrial strength far greater than US-Europe.
The collective west, the British-Europeans, followed by America has dominated much of the world for around four hundred years, but the Americans and Europe have run out of ideas and are on the decline. We have a period of multi-polar world ahead, in which Christian Russia will take a leading role, and we’d better get used to it.
