You in the West, you think you are playing chess with us, but you are never going to win because we are not following any rules.

Russian mobster to his lawyer
Catherine Belton, Putin’s People

Introducution

Forty years ago, a serious long-term problem confronting Moscow was the USSR’s fast-growing Muslim population. It was then speculated that the Soviet Union’s high Muslim birthrate would turn the USSR into a majority Muslim country by the middle of the twenty-first century. It is a strange joke, and more than a curious twist of fate, that NATO faces this same prospect today. 

The Russian armed forces officially moved into Syria on 30 September 2015. Already a massive Muslim “refugee” invasion of Europe was underway, stretching through the spring and summer of that year. This migrant flood occurred without a dramatic change in the Syrian crisis. According to a report by investigative journalist Witold Gadowski, published in mid-September 2015, the people then pouring into the heart of Europe included more than refugees, and possibly included ISIS terrorist infiltrators.[i]

Gadowski was a well-known war reporter, documentary film director, and winner of several journalism prizes in Poland and abroad. He went to Syria in 2015 and discovered that in the territory controlled by the Islamic State (ISIS), there was no chance for anyone to leave ISIS-controlled territory without permission. As he explained, the punishment for attempting to escape was crucifixion.[ii]

In Gadowski’s opinion, the flood of refugees had been triggered by decisions made in Moscow, and perhaps in Tehran. In fact, the mass killing of Syrian civilians was an ongoing project of the Russian-backed Syrian dictator, Bashar al-Assad – whose troops were killing seven times more civilians than ISIS.[iii] Once the Russian bombers arrived, even more civilians were targeted.[iv]

Of special interest, and contrary to public declarations, Russian and Chinese technicians were busy helping ISIS to maintain its captured oil rigs and refineries, while Russian trained Iraqi military officers (formerly in Saddam Hussein’s army), were leading ISIS forces against the Baghdad government (which set up a joint intelligence headquarters in league with Iran and Russia).[v] From this and other evidence it appears that Russia has been playing a double game in the Middle East.

Using the Iraqi oil infrastructure, relying on clandestine Russian technical support, ISIS earned $800 million in annual revenues by “selling more than 60,000 barrels of oil per day.” But this was not the Islamic State’s only source of income. According to Gadowski:

…the Islamic State trades artworks and archeological artifacts. It is not true that the monuments of antique culture are destroyed. They are sold and bring a large income. In 90 percent of the cases, this is happening through the Russian mafia. The Islamic State and the wave of refugees bring profits to the Russian, Turkish and Albanian mafias.[vi]

In this matter the Russian mafia is not simply the Russian mafia, and the same can be said of mafia organizations which have appeared throughout the “former” communist world. As noted by Brian Whitmore of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, “Organized crime is now a major element of Russian statecraft.”[vii] According to Gadowski, Russia’s game is to “checkmate Europe, and to a lesser extent the United States.” Outwardly Russia pretends to fight ISIS. In reality, Russia helps ISIS. Essential to the plan, the Syrians were generating refugees by terrorizing civilians in Syria. As stated above, Gadowski believed that a secret Islamic State Terrorist Unit (AMNI) was placing fanatical killers among the refugees. In this way a vast network of suicide bombers and murderers entered Europe.[viii]

After arriving in Syria, Russian air units launched bombing raids against Syrian civilians, adding to the refugee flow in late summer. Of course, the refugee crisis was well under way before the Russians arrived. It had peaked earlier. What the bombing showed, however, was Russia’s strategic intention. The Syrians and the Russians were following a pre-defined path. The bombers were the icing on a cake already baked. Long before the Russian bombers arrived other means of pressure had been employed by Syria – including the use of chemical weapons. Refugees (and terrorists) had long since flooded into neighboring Turkey. Through the spring and summer of 2015, the numbers were getting larger and larger. A significant proportion of these masses moved into Europe. This paper will present evidence and arguments that Russia and her allies (Syria and Iran) set this process in motion as part of a larger strategic design. The authors believe that Moscow does not act haphazardly. Rather, its moves are carefully thought-out in advance. The strategy being applied is complex, its objectives masked by disinformation and subterfuge, extortion and blackmail, organized crime and false flag terrorist operations.

The Arab spring

When rebellions began to break out in the Middle East several years ago, the former chief of Romanian intelligence, Ion Mihai Pacepa, wondered why the first rebellions in the series took place “only in Islamic countries that are pro-American.” He asked why the rebels were burning American flags. He thought it suspicious that the United States had no advanced warning of the mass demonstrations that swept the Arab world from Morocco to the Persian Gulf. Pacepa noted that “on the first day of the Cairo uprising” the demonstrators “were carrying flags displaying the hammer and sickle.” He called this “a mistake caused by overzealousness….”[ix]

The rebellion that began on 17 December 2010 in Tunisia, and spread across the Arab world, was an attempt to sweep away “moderate” Arab regimes. It was not a revolution for freedom or democracy. As Richard Miniter wrote in a 2011 Forbes article, “Virtually every element of the media narrative [on the Arab Spring] … is wrong or misleading.” The rebellion was not a spontaneous reaction to local dictatorships. According to Miniter, Egypt’s chief of intelligence warned Gen. David Petraeus in 2010 that Iran – a close ally and client state of Moscow – was preparing to “bring down [Egypt’s] Mubarak regime.”[x]

Miniter was told by intelligence officials that “Iran’s agents are behind the street demonstrations and violent attacks on government buildings.”[xi] Iran’s revolutionary activity throughout the region, however, was not merely Iranian. This activity was connected to Russia, and to Russia’s past support for the communist cause. According to an Iranian specialist, the Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Khamenei, was educated in Moscow and may be a Russian intelligence asset. Worse yet, other top leaders in Iran were also educated in Russia, with ongoing ties to Moscow.[xii]

In a recently published article by the Katehon Institute[xiii] in Russia, B. Ozerov explained that the Soviet government in 1918 “was guided by understanding Islam as a close ideology to the communist doctrine.” After all, Islam favored ideals of equality, social justice, and the redistribution of wealth. According to Ozerov, Moscow’s initial plan in the region was “to transform Islam into an Eastern edition of Communism….”[xiv]

In a 4 July 1925 interview with the Tokyo Nichi Nichi Shimbun, Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin was asked if he believed revolutionary turmoil in China, India, Persia and Egypt was bound to sweep away the Western powers. “Yes, I do,” said the communist leader, who added that the West would be “attacked on two sides – in the rear as well as in front.”

Related insights of V. Kalashnikov and A. Illarionov

In June 2013 J.R. Nyquist interviewed a disaffected KGB officer in Russia named Viktor Kalashnikov. In reference to Syria, the former KGB lieutenant colonel said, “It’s all about struggle against the United States. All allies are measured in terms of their anti-Americanism. If they are anti-American, they are our friends.” Kalashnikov then referred to the deployment of “terrorist armies.” Armies composed of terrorists, said Kalashnikov, were better than old-fashioned Soviet tank armies. They were more flexible, and cheaper than tanks. “The head of the Russian state has publicly warned the West that … arms deliveries to the opposition in Syria might result in terrorist attacks against Europe. That’s a clear causus belli – a real terrorist threat,” said Kalashnikov.[xv]

When Nyquist advanced the idea that the Cold War was over, Kalashnikov scoffed. This is yet another topic, he said. “But we have to ask what happened to the Soviet Union in 1991. It was dismantled for the sake of reorganization and for the sake of Russian power.” The Soviet generals were not happy with the strategic situation. The large tank armies of the Soviet Union were, in Kalashnikov’s words, “a wasting asset, especially after 1983.”[xvi]

The core strategy, he explained, “was splitting Europe from America.” In the 1980s this was attempted with the threat of war. But now, under present circumstances, a different method would have to be devised. “What happened on 9/11 was just an omen of things to come,” he explained.  

In Part 1 of the interview, headlined “Russia’s Islamist Alliance, Plans to Destroy NATO,” the former KGB lieutenant colonel, who had been trained as a strategist, attempted to draw the interviewer’s attention to Russia’s support for the anti-immigrant parties in Europe. Here Kalashnikov referred to Islam as a Russian weapon in the destruction of NATO. Realizing the interviewer was perplexed, Kalashnikov said, “Let me talk about [the neo-fascists] in Hungary. They are pro-Putin. They are nationalists, and of course, they are absolutely anti-Semitic and anti-American.”[xvii]

What did the anti-immigrant parties have to do with “terrorist armies” in the Middle East? What did any of it have to do with splitting America off of Europe? Here was a question requiring careful consideration. To answer this question, one might well imagine how NATO would have prospered if Hillary Clinton and Marine Le Pen had won their respective elections. What if Europe followed France’s lead? Would the politically correct Americans remain allies with the new Europe? “What I would suggest,” said Kalashnikov, “is that your anti-terror experts read Vladimir Lenin who provided the textbook for terrorists. How they should set up combat units; who is to be killed first and second; what strategy and tactics to adopt. Lenin developed a complete theory for using terrorism to take power and govern a huge state. That was the beginning of Soviet strategy, statehood and government, as well as international policy.”[xviii]

More than one year after Kalashnikov’s curious pronouncements, a former Kremlin economic advisor named Andrei Illarionov, made an even more curious statement. In a December 2014 television interview, Illarionov noted that Europe had reached its lowest level of defense readiness. He also noted that Russia was openly threatening the West with nuclear war. Illarionov then made an astonishing prediction, adding that “the European nations will not be very much surprised, let’s say, if in the spring of next year, 2015, there will be some kind of massive political movement – let’s say a kind of ‘Islamic spring.’”[xix]

Being Russian himself, having worked in the Kremlin, it seems obvious that Illarionov had access to high-level sources. The coming “Islamic spring,” he said, would not occur in the Middle East, “but in Europe.” He mentioned destabilizing effects on “certain European countries” where the crisis would “consume the energy and attention of European leaders at a time when Mr. Putin would try and fulfill his neo-imperial project….”[xx]

Illarionov was quite specific when he said the coming “Islamic spring” in Europe would involve “movements and activities … in European countries themselves.” When asked if this could be triggered by Russia, Illarionov said, “I am just warning … when it should happen … European societies should not be [too] much shocked and surprised.”

Illarionov’s prediction carries forward the suggestion that Moscow instigated the migrant crisis. For how else could Illarionov have known about an “Islamic spring” involving “movements and activities … in Europe”? His prediction was an unlikely direct hit. To know something in advance is to know something is being planned. Illarionov clearly predicted the most significant event of the following year. He also implied this event was planned to distract the West from Russia’s aggression against Ukraine. And this prediction fits perfectly with the analysis of Lt. Col. Viktor Kalashnikov, a resident of Moscow, who warned of Russia deploying “terrorist armies” in 2013. The fact is, people in Moscow knew what was coming. And why wouldn’t they? It takes enormous resources and real planning to move millions of people from the Middle East to the heart of Europe. A lot of people had to know in advance, if only to set up the needed transport system.

Insights of a Romanian general

Those who have lived under communist regimes, who were educated as strategists, are in a better position to properly evaluate recent events than their West European counterparts. During an August 2015 Adevarul Live television discussion, retired Army General Constantin Degeratu referred to the European refugee crisis as a “hybrid war” of aggression, conjured out of the Middle East by Russia. Superficially, the refugee crisis “completely covered the problem of the Russian aggression against Ukraine,” Degeratu noted. He then stated that the whole refugee operation was “well organized.” The general added, “Look at the people who are coming. They are better dressed and better fed than 10 to 15 percent of Romania’s population. This is a planned invasion, it doesn’t have a direct cause in the Middle East….” He then pointed out the logistical difficulties involved in moving millions of people hundreds or thousands of miles. “If somebody is to come from Afghanistan with a trolley to the border of Macedonia, this requires logistics.”[xxi]

As if to clarify Kalashnikov’s earlier point about Hungary, Degeratu pointed to a curious anomaly. “It is said that this threefold increase in the number of refugees compared to the numbers of last summer is taking everyone by surprise. But [this] occurred a week after Hungary completed the building of [a large border] fence. Doesn’t it seem interesting to you that first the fence was built and afterwards this migration started, in that particular area?”[xxii]

Retired Army General Alexandru Grumaz was also on the program. He agreed that the migration was “well supported.” He added that Turkey also had an interest in pushing the refugees along, toward Europe. It was, said Grumaz, a crisis of European institutions. Degeratu said the problem of the refugee invasion could not be solved. Why? “Because it is managed by Russia and thus it is meant not to be solved, but to be maintained.” The general then said, “Russia’s interest is to maintain this crisis.”

“It is clear,” said Degeratu, “that if the European Union doesn’t want to live the nightmare … which says that in the years 2030 to 2040 more than 60 percent of the active EU population will be Muslim … then the European countries should decide if they want to survive as a civilization or not.” According to Degeratu’s strategic assessment, “We have to understand that we are the target of a war, and we may call it hybrid, or an asymmetrical war, but this migrant wave is a consequence of it.” He then summarized the perilous cost of the migrants for Europe, noting, “the cost for each one of these people is three times the minimum retirement pension in Romania!”[xxiii]

Surely, said Degeratu, “The political attitude [in Europe] with regard to this situation needs to change. So far, it’s been peace-time politics. Now we are the target of an aggression. Border control is absolutely mandatory.”

According to Prof. Przemysław Żurawski vel Grajewski, who was asked by Dr. Cernea to comment on Gen. Degeratu’s assessments, “The opinions of Gen. Degeratu are fully justified and I would subscribe [to] each of his statements….” Prof. Żurawski is one of Poland’s best political analysts. He teaches social science at the University of Łódz and the National School of Public Administration, serving in the National Council for Development, an advisory board to President Andrzej Duda. He is also a counselor to the current Polish Minister of Foreign Affairs, Jacek Czaputowicz. According to Prof. Żurawski, the Russians are not responsible for all the refugees who have flooded into Europe, but it is certain “they did their best to make [the problem] larger … to confuse the political scene in European countries … as much as they can. Russia is the main ally of Assad and Iran….” These allies of Russia, he said, have maximized “the scale of the refugees.” Prof. Żurawski also pointed to “the semi-criminal FSB/local mafias and hybrid structures in Bosnia and Herzegovina.” These also played a role in moving refugees through the Balkans into the heart of Europe. “The conclusion is,” he said, “that Russia had instruments to maximize the troubles” despite Europe’s inability to find “a smoking gun.”[xxiv]

Prof. Żurawski also noted that, “Anti-immigrant parties in the West are usually pro-Russian (Front National, AfD); so deepening the crisis helps Russia’s followers in the West.” This point should not be overlooked. (Kalashnikov hinted at this factor with reference to Hungary more than a year before the refugee crisis began.) Here the manipulation of the European right takes center stage. Moscow has every reason to believe the European anti-immigrant parties will gain political traction as the refugee crisis intensifies. Moscow, therefore, has reason to invest in the European right. Simultaneously, Moscow also uses its agents on the European left. These agents intensify the crisis through “politically correct” policies. As the left drives the crisis forward, the right opposition grows and seeks ready allies – and is driven into Moscow’s open arms.

This process may already be underway in Hungary where Prime Minister Viktor Orban has shifted toward Moscow.[xxv] The Chief of the Hungarian General Staff, Gen. Tibor Benkő, says that Hungary does not have to buy equipment exclusively from NATO countries. Russia is currently modernizing Hungarian Mi-24 and Mi-17 helicopters for $64 million.[xxvi] Perhaps even more alarming is Prime Minister Orban’s tolerance with regard to Russian infiltration of the Hungarian right. Former Hungarian anti-communists are now celebrating Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, linking arms with Russian officials. According to authors Péter Krekó and Lóránt Győri, Russia has invested political capital in “hate groups in Central Europe,” with financial ties “to violent organizations in Central and Eastern Europe as well….”[xxvii] This is a conscious strategy:

In Moscow’s toolkit of active measures and hybrid warfare, the boundaries between violent and nonviolent tools are increasingly blurry. And this process is two-directional: not only can information be weaponized; violent organizations can be used as soft-power tools. The Kremlin is highly effective at infiltrating fringe parties and paramilitary organizations in Central Europe. They are easy to purchase or control, as these extremist groups tend to be small and easily manipulated.[xxviii]

What is the ultimate strategic value of the infiltration and manipulation of fringe parties and paramilitary groups? Keeping this question in mind, when we look at the present-day chaos in the Middle East, Russia’s past support for terrorist organizations of every kind becomes less and less of a riddle.  

The former Romanian Minister for Communications and Information,[xxix] Marius Bostan, was asked by Dr. Cernea if he agreed with Gen. Degeratu’s remarks. Bostan replied, “From the perspective of my own experience in public service and politics, I do agree with Gen. Degeratu’s opinion that Russia is likely to have been involved in the migrant crisis and … it should be regarded as a hybrid war operation against the West.” Bostan emphasized that “a very important component of the hybrid war is the cultural dimension.” Here the Internet plays a key role. The Russian long-term investment in “propaganda, disinformation, opinion and behavior-shaping” cannot be underestimated. A short-term view would be a mistake. Bostan explained,

There is something about the Russian strategy that is difficult to explain to our Western allies. It’s the fact that Russia usually acts on both sides of a (real or manufactured) conflict. For instance, on [the] Internet we notice that Russian propaganda, disinformation or trolling activity on forums and social networks typically carry messages meant to create/amplify conflicts between different ethnic or religious groups – Romanians versus Hungarians, Poles versus Ukrainians, Christians versus Jews, etc. And they encourage at the same time groups with opposed views – far left anti-market tendencies [versus] libertarian ones, LGBT-rights [versus] conservative Christian activism, open-border multiculturalism [versus] anti-immigration movements, etc. Thus, Russia is able to provoke conflicts and crises, and to influence the public agenda of the countries it targets for subversion.

This ambivalence may seem paradoxical to Western minds, used to a binary logic according to which something cannot be black and white at the same time. Well, Russians are not Westerners. In the East, black and white may be defined in many different ways. Moreover, the Russian leaders still function according to a mentality shaped by Marxist dialectics, which says that progress results from the constant struggle between contrary elements.

It looks like the West is only now discovering that, for instance, Russian internet trolls simultaneously support a certain cause and its contrary.[xxx]

Bostan has laid out one of Russia’s key strategies. He says this kind of strategy is “difficult” for the West to understand. As Rudyard Kipling expressed it, “East is East, and West is West, and never the twain shall meet.” At some point in the future, however, the West must learn to appreciate Russia’s “scissors strategy” – “that Russia usually acts on both sides of a … conflict.” If there is one central lesson to be drawn from this study, Bostan has underscored it.

In their Atlantic Council article, “From Russia with Hate,” Péter Krekó and Lóránt Győri explain how Polish counterintelligence “is currently investigating Mateusz Piskorski, the leader of the Polish leftist party … as well as former activists of the far-right Polish Congress of the New Right (KNP) on charges of espionage on behalf of Russia.”[xxxi] Here is the classic Russian “scissors strategy” at work.

If the refugee crisis is part of a Russian scissors strategy, how does Russia benefit? First, political tensions are intensified between the European right and left; second, the right can be pushed toward Moscow by a variety of mechanisms; third, a general weakening of NATO develops under a scenario of “divide and conquer”; fourth, a general demoralization and loss of belief in existing institutions naturally follows.

In his interview with Epoch Times in November 2015, General Degeratu showed the depth of this understanding when he said we “should see who takes profit” from the refugee crisis. “Well,” he explained, the Russians profited, and many cracks appeared in NATO. “We see how ‘united’ Europe has been,” Degeratu added. “Full unity! There have been 50 voices in our European ‘unity.’”[xxxii]

Those who have set up the exercise have understood all our weaknesses and have exploited them properly. What else have they obtained … does anyone still speak about the Ukrainian crisis? Not anymore. There are also 1 million – in fact, 800,000 – refugees, from Eastern Ukraine and Crimea, most of them from Donbass. Eight hundred thousand. There are 8,000 dead. Around 2,000 children and pregnant women have died in this crisis. We almost haven’t seen them on the (TV) screen, there have been no gatherings, there was no session of the Romanian Parliament….[xxxiii]

Degeratu is extraordinarily perceptive, and other experts agree with his assessment that Russia is waging a hybrid war against Europe. “Maybe some of us are too militarily-minded and ask questions that shouldn’t be asked,” said Degeratu.

Direct testimony from a Syrian general on Russia’s double game

There is a stunning revelation in the fragment of a September 2015 interview given to Witold Gadowski by Syrian Brigadier General Ahmad Aljjdeaa, a soldier with thirty years of experience in the Syrian Army who is also the deputy minister of defense in the Syrian government-in-exile. According to Gen. Aljjdeaa, “Russian officers are constantly present in the branches of the Syrian army supporting the regime of Bashar Assad….” Then he added, “Russia is interested in confusion in Syria. There are also four military training centers in Russia, in which fanatics are trained, who then fill the ranks of the Islamic State troops (ISIS). Among the trained are also Chechens.”[xxxiv]

Related to this, another curious headline reads: “In retreating from Iraq, ISIS terrorists lost their Russian passports.”[xxxv] The facts are reported as follows: “The Iraqi military, who at the end of last week occupied the university building previously held by ISIS in the city of Mosul, displayed what was found in evidence as the identification papers of Islamic State terrorists, which mostly turned out to be Russian.”[xxxvi]

Again, it is a case of the “scissors strategy.” Moscow has perfected the fine art of stage-managing fake wars and phony splits with false fronts made up of “useful idiots.”[xxxvii] Russia’s deployment of terrorist and counter-terrorist forces in Syria and Iraq should surprise no one. This procedure was used during the Soviet-Afghan War in the 1980s and again during the recent wars in Chechnya.[xxxviii]

At this juncture it may be useful to recite a bit of history. In July 2005 the Russian KGB/FSB defector Alexander Litvinenko told the Polish newspaper Rzeczpospolita that Ayman al-Zawahiri (then Al-Qaeda’s second in command) was trained by the FSB in Dagestan in 1997. According to the former KGB foreign intelligence officer Konstantin Preobrazhensky, Litvinenko “was responsible for securing the secrecy of al-Zawahiri’s arrival in Russia … in 1996-1997.”[xxxix]

The Romanian intelligence defector, Lt. Gen. Ion Mahai Pacepa, has described Moscow’s use of Arab terrorist organizations throughout the Cold War in his books.[xl] We know that Russia stands firmly behind the Islamic terror regime in Tehran. Researcher Antero Leitzinger explained, “Modern terrorism was born within a year, 1967-68. International socialists (communists) started the fashion all over the world simultaneously, which should make us suspicious about the common roots. National socialists followed suit, turning Marxists of Muslim origin into Islamists of Marxist origin.”[xli]

Among the closest associates of Khomeini, there were many Communists who had conveniently grown beards. Mustafa Ali Chamran had studied in California and Egypt before he founded a Red Shi’ite secret society. His pupils included later foreign minister Ibrahim Yazdi, oil minister Mohammed Gharazi, and Lebanese fellow student in Berkeley University, Hussein Shaikh al-Islam, who led the occupation of the US Embassy in Tehran. This occupation, shortly before the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, focused Iranian radicalism into anti-Americanism…. Mohammed Beheshti, whose death at a bombing on June 28th, 1981, remained a mystery, had resided in East Germany. Khomeini’s early companion and foreign minister, Sadegh Ghotbzadeh had successfully accommodated with the new regime. Both Ghotbzadeh and Chamran had received Palestinian terrorist training. As a student in the USA, Ghotbzadeh had been recruited by the [Soviet] GRU.[xlii]

With regard to the Soviet-Afghan War, Leitzinger explained that Soviet Military Intelligence (GRU) had developed special capabilities by the late 1980s, especially “how to manipulate Islamists and to make Communists (of the Khalq faction) to grow beards and join their declared enemies.” According to Leitzinger, “This ‘Khalq strategy” provided a successful alternative to the more orthodox “Parcham strategy” that relied on ideologically less unholy alliances.”[xliii]

Leitzinger argued that the Russian secret services “gained a tight hold on international terrorism, and [especially] on Islamism” in the 1990s. The terrorist is, in essence, a special kind of agent provocateur. A Western analyst finds it difficult to see the Afghan-Soviet War or the first and second Chechen Wars as utilizing provocation techniques on a broad scale. Former CIA official T.H. Bagley and KGB defector Peter Deriabin noted, “Soviet provocation … remains little understood in the West. People safe in a democratic system may find it difficult to conceive that rulers would systematically use such hostile techniques against their own subjects.”[xliv]

If Moscow’s wars in Afghanistan and Chechnya were built around terrorist provocations, and the objective was to radicalize and infiltrate Islam, and reorient Islam against the West, then the wars in Afghanistan and Chechnya appear in a more intelligible light. The Soviet Union did not invade Afghanistan for conventional reasons, or to attain classical military control.

With the advent of the refugee crisis in Europe, with the likelihood of thousands of terrorists settled within a mass of protected Muslim refugees, the least sign of Russian involvement – or the involvement of Russia’s Islamist surrogates – ought to inspire a shockwave of alarm through Europe’s security establishment. Given the history of Moscow’s infiltration of Islam, and the mounting evidence of Russia’s double game, the Kremlin would be the most natural suspect in any close study of the refugee crisis. Arguably, any other focus would be irresponsible.

As reported by the BBC, U.S. Gen. Philip Breedlove, the senior NATO commander in Europe, said that Russia and Syria were “deliberately weaponizing migration in an attempt to overwhelm European structures and break European resolve.” He cited Russia’s use of barrel bombs against Syrian civilians. What was the purpose of such indiscriminate attacks? The purpose was, he said, to “get them [masses of people] on the road” to Europe.[xlv]

Masses of homeless people, adhering to an alien religion, is one problem for Europe. Terrorism is yet another. Since the refugee crisis began Europe has been hit with an unprecedented wave of terrorist attacks (not to mention rapes and robberies). First came the Paris killings of November 2015, then the Brussels bombings of March 2016, then the Nice truck attack and the Normandy church attack of July 2016. Then there was the string of Islamic stabbings across Europe.[xlvi]

Some of our sources (quoted above) have claimed that modern terrorism was introduced to the Muslims by the communist bloc half a century ago. This point must not be forgotten when evaluating the left’s strange love affair with Islam. “From the very beginning,” said former KGB Lt. Col. Konstantin Preobrazhensky, “the so-called Bolsheviks, or communists, were considering Muslims as the reserve [army], as the human resource for the world revolution. Not all … people know that the second appeal by Lenin, after the Great October Socialist Revolution in 1917, was addressed to Muslim toilers….” Preobrazhensky continued:

At that time Islam was the religion of the oppressed … of the people colonized by the West. As Lenin said by the time of the … Communist International, ‘The West is existing at the expense of the East.’ Even now we can hear such conclusions, such ideas. And as soon as the Russian Revolution took place, Russian Muslims immediately supported it, so that the communist Muslim military organizations were formed. The Muslim communists were dethroning the local bourgeois Muslim governments which appeared in the Russian Empire[xlvii].

Muslim refugees to Europe: a Russian policy

According to Antoni Rybczynski, “The migratory crisis in Europe is largely a work of Russian policy….” He further stated, “Already … when nobody expected Russian raids in Syria, Vladimir Putin warned that Europe would face the great problems associated with the influx of immigrants.” In this way Moscow supported Assad while undermining Europe.[xlviii]

Another Niezalezna.pl headline underscores this same idea: “Putin’s diabolical game, Exporting Muslim immigrants to Europe.” The article begins, “The Norwegian authorities believe that the refugees’ invasion of their country is a Russian provocation.”[xlix]

In October 2015 the Czech Minister of Defense, Martin Stropnicky, suggested that Russia was possibly financing the transportation of refugees to Europe. “Although I do not have 100 percent proof of this information,” he said, “I cannot discount it either.”[l] Given all we know, his surmise is logical. It is sensible. Why wouldn’t Russia – which has armed Islamic terrorists throughout Asia – arm Islamic terrorists in Germany, Britain, France or Sweden?

According to a member of the Estonian National Defense League, Ants Laaneots, “Putin’s aim is the disintegration of the European Union and NATO, if possible.” Russia, he added, is promoting “Euroscepticism.”[li] More likely, Russia’s strategy includes many subtle and indirect objectives. As with the work of the late Mohammad Fahim in Afghanistan, Russia can take over a NATO-defended country through the work of an enterprising criminal. Russia can thereby paralyze the heart of Afghanistan or the heart of Europe in a way that mocks European compassion. 

The Chairman of the Supreme Council of Lithuania, Vytautas Landsbergis, made an observation on 15 September 2015 about the refugee crisis almost identical to others we have seen:

I was thinking who had to profit, and I know now. In the current crisis, the whole attention is focused on Europe. Nobody is speaking of Ukraine any more, although there are almost 2 million refugees there as well. Putin has chased them away, and nobody is proposing them to go where life is better….[lii]

According to Landsbergis, the current migration crisis is a threat to European civilization.

Europe has met a big danger for its own system, even for its own civilization. The Germans earlier had illusions, that they would manage to integrate a million Turks, that the Turks would become Germans and there would be no problem. It didn’t work. Ghettos were created, a state within the state, and these are big problems….[liii]

The Ukrainian MP, Anton Gerashchenko, speaking on TV Channel News One, stated:

The crisis of migrants in Europe arose because of Putin. The war in Syria began in 2011, but migrants flooded [Europe] like a large river in the spring of 2015. Russia made a decision after Europe imposed economic sanctions on Russia: ‘Let’s create problems for them.” They created a problem: $1,000 was allocated for the head of [each] refugee who will be taken from Syria to Europe. A million refugees are a billion dollars. This is nothing to Putin….[liv]

The cost to Europe, however, is much more than a $1 billion. Gerashchenko added that an atmosphere of xenophobia has been created in Europe along with the growing influence of various nationalist parties, which are known for their favorable position toward Putin’s Russia.

Conclusion

Whatever the causes of the Refugee crisis, Moscow’s strategists have taken full advantage of the situation. Those who know Russian policy best, who are geographically further east, know that Russia has something to gain. If a “smoking gun” is absent, in a strict sense, there is yet a loaded gun. One might say this gun is pointed at the heart of Europe.

With regard to proof, the strategist does not wear a white lab coat or follow some academic procedure to understand the world. He is not a prosecuting attorney who has to prove his case in a court of law. He is engaged in “a duel on an extensive scale” – which was Carl von Clausewitz’s famous definition of war. If military and political leaders only acted on the basis of scientific proof – or relied only on proofs that would be used to convince a jury – they would not be able to act at all. The soldier and the stateman exercise judgment on a more commonsense level.

Consider the following analogy: If it is 2 December 1941 and an American plane spots six Japanese aircraft carriers moving east between Alaska and Midway Island, a sensible strategist would assume that the Japanese were intending to attack the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor. The sensible strategist would be quite foolish to declare that “there was no proof” of a Japanese intention to attack. It would be pedantic, under the circumstances, to say there was “no smoking gun.” Strategy dictates an entirely different epistemology. The reported movement of the Japanese aircraft carriers would constitute a loaded gun, aimed at the U.S. Pacific Fleet. A responsible military leader does not wait for that gun to be fired. An American admiral, drawing the proper inferences, would know exactly what to do. He would alert the fleet at Pearl Harbor and take countermeasures. He would know, as one who directs fleets, that every enemy move speaks to intention. That must be the foundation of his certitude, of his practical knowledge.

In terms of the Muslim refugee crisis in Europe: reports of ISIS training camps in Russia, reports of GRU/SVR and Russian Mafia assistance to a massive influx of refugees, reports of Russian infiltration of terrorist organizations throughout the Muslim world, etc., constitute a loaded gun. We must judge these reports as strategists – not as social scientists. This must be the foundation of a new strategic methodology for the Muslim Refugee problem. Clearly, this is not simply about Islam. Russian involvement is indicated. Russian strategy must be understood as part of a greater strategic whole in order to properly assess the larger situation.

[xii] The former intelligence official was interviewed by J.R. Nyquist on condition of anonymity.

[xiii] Katehon’s president is Konstantin Malofeev, a Russian oligarch with close ties to Aleksandr Dugin, previously the co-founder of the National Bolshevist movement (along with Eduard Limonov). This was a movement which combined nationalism and communism (i.e., a Red-Brown prototype movement). More recently Dugin changed his ideological formula, mixing pan-European or Eurasianist ideas with nihilistic metaphysics in order to justify a worldwide anti-U.S. alliance between traditionalist and Marxists. All this is interspersed with a thinly disguised Lenin-style anti-capitalist millenarianism which seeks to hasten the “end times” with the destruction of Carthage (i.e., the United States). Dugin’s pretense at Orthodox Christianity should not be taken any more seriously than his nationalist pretenses. His entire ideology is an arcane justification for a renewed USSR/Third Rome. His enemies are the old enemies of the USSR. His friends are the old friends of the USSR. Dugin’s philosophic sophistication is not to be taken seriously, though his past fascination with Aleister Crowley’s black magic craves closer investigation. Of course, Dugin’s flirtation with esoteric ideas has helped to win adherents on the alt-right, particularly among neo-pagans, occultists and Sufis. His supposed positive attitude toward traditional Christianity leads to the conclusion that he is consciously toying with dialectically opposed theologies and ideologies. Using conspiracy theory as a tool to advance his anti-U.S. agenda, Dugin also pretends to support President Donald Trump, making English language broadcasts praising Trump for stopping globalism and “the expansion of liberal ideology.” Dugin also praises Alex Jones and Infowars. To watch Dugin’s English language broadcasts, see – “The Mystic Shaping Russia’s Future and Bringing Back the Dark Ages, https://godsandradicals.org/2017/03/28/the-mystic-shaping-russias-future-and-ending-the-modern-era/.

308 thoughts on “Russian Strategy and Europe’s Refugee Crisis

  1. Refugee situation was manufactured and is being exploited primarily by global capitalists (who need weak nation states and cheap labour) and Zionists (Israel needs to fuel anti-Islam sentiment in the West to continue receiving unconditional support). Maybe Russia can benefit indirectly, but they would benefit from independent nation states with conflicting interests more. (feel free to delete my comment for using the z-word)

    1. The “Zionist” conspiracy is anti-Semitic, I believe, and “Israel needs to fuel anti-Islam sentiment in the West to continue receiving unconditional support” is a fiction, and is, moreover, disparaging. Those who say such things are not friends of Israel, and your tone, sir, is not appreciated, I must say.

      1. Kelaino Hawkshawe, Commit may be one of those referred to by Romanian Minister of Communication and Intelligence Marius Bostan, as a Russian Communist troll, who goes onto internet forums sowing seeds of discord among different groups, such as between Christians and Jews.

        Interesting how that was the first comment made after the posting of an article in which that kind of activity was pointedly referenced.

      2. GreyKnight – “who goes onto internet forums sowing seeds of discord among different groups, such as between Christians and Jews. ”

        first, I wrote nothing against Jews, second, it is you and Jeff (and other zio-trolls) who sow discord between Christians and Muslims.

      3. Commit — I am a Zionist troll? I am not even interested in the subject. I do not even write about it. You, however, are obsessed.

    2. Does Israel need to exist for there to be anti-Islamic sentiment in the West and elsewhere?

      1. Nosir, it surely doesn’t. I feel strong anti-Islamic sentiment, no matter what other countries do or dont exist, lol. When I see a Muslim -and there are a few in my area- I feel that I am looking at a mortal enemy, because by their training and ideology that is what they are. I hope that they turn to Christ, but I cant help but have very strong feelings of resentment whenever I happen to see them. Which, thankfully, is rare.

        Even my beloved Southland is not free from the scourge.

      1. Forgive my confusion, Mr. Nyquist, but is this question directed at me?

      2. I guess the comments are not placed directly below the first post — I should have referred to the poster by name — Commit

      3. Yes, WordPress does seem to order comments in a strange way.

    3. The Soviets have succeeded in breeding for themselves a clique of elite scapegoats in the Western world who will be blamed for sabotaging the old world order and collapsing the world economy. I have the impression that the “evil capitalists” have become involved in a play whose script they do not understand and whose outcome they do not even suspect:
      With the beginning of globalization, they have sold the Soviets the rope on which they themselves will hang. This is exactly what you don’t understand either, just like 90% of the Germans here.

    4. Oh yeah, sure, the entire Marxist left celebrating refugees in every single country but it’s the Capitalists really behind it all.

    5. This problem exists because Europe is unwilling to flex its military might. See here for my review of the situation:

      https://catxman.wordpress.com/2021/06/27/a-fallen-axe-europes-absconded-role-in-geopolitical-affairs/

      In other words, if Europe were more like America, it would be an additional stabilizing force in the world, rather than a big baby that just sits on its hands.

      The problem is that Europe has lost its taste for war. It cannot stomach bloodshed and destruction anymore, so it blanks them out of its collective consciousness. Talk shows import American stars to hype the latest filmic vehicle, while ignoring the rough-and-tumble world outside Europe’s window. Yet America cannot be relied upon to do it all. A bi-regional coalition of Europe plus America would go far toward remedying the chaos we see in the world today (Syria et al.)

  2. Without going too deep for now, there are two considerations;

    The first is that there is a centuries long antipathy between Poles and Russians (and other east europeans) which color perceptions. How can they forget the conquest of Poland? How can we forget the attempted conquests of Russia by the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth?

    The second is regarding Islam and Marxist-Leninism. The tail is waging the dog, and always has. One has some 1400 years in which certain habits of mind are perpetuated, the other is fatally Atheistic and draws upon only five centuries of thought at the very most. All the original revolutionaries had Christian or Jewish-believing families and backgrounds,and could only fall so far into the morass, ”burdened” by the reflex of civilized morality and ethics to at least a degree. Very different is the cultural experience of the Jihadist, which knows no such reflex. They knew what they were doing when they flocked to the Bolshevik banners from 1917 on. Fighting for Islam against Russia,, is what they believed.

    It would be safer and more accurate to say that Islam is absorbing the revolutionary potential everywhere,every firebrand, every fascist, every criminal mafia, every single one. Not the other way around. It was realized that Islam would absorb the USSR,and everywhere else. And they would be enabled by the crafty foxes who would join them and profit by the ruins

    Against this always has been Russia.

    1. Interesting historical analysis, @Vladimir.

      Admittedly, I don’t know that much regarding the history of Eastern Europe, but didn’t the Russian Empire get its “revenge” on Poland by taking some of its eastern territory in the 1790s?

      1. ”Empire” is more of a curse than a real ”revenge”. But on the level of ”Russian”Royalty and not that of the common people, the Romanovs had always sought Empire from the beginning, and had the typical Machiavellian mindset of the acquisitive Western European royals of that era-since that is exactly what they really were. Austria and Prussia helped themselves to their share, and suddenly found themselves facing each other and Russia entirely, with eventually dire results.

        You might guess that I’m one of those who have a real Romanov antipathy, and you’d be right. The Bolsheviks were the spiritual children of that family, whether they’d claim them or not.

      2. Russian revenge on Poland took place by the dismemberment of Poland. Poland had no national existence for over 100 years because of Imperial Russia. The Red Army invaded ca 1920. The Poles managed to beat them back.

        He is also attempting to rewrite history. As Jeff points out, Russia is profiting from the situation and is certainly not standing against it. The work on this started under Stalin and has simply grown since then. Putin is, like a good pupil of Stalin, using it.

    2. Yeah … Russia is against radical Islam. Did you even read the article Jeff wrote?

      1. I did,we have the same information,and then some. Here is the problem,if you are interested in the truth. There is a Force in the Middle East, which seeks to conquer the entire world. It’s enemies could easily destroy it, especially in combination against It. But It’s enemies hate and fear each other more than they hate and fear It. And they seek to profit from It at everyone else’s expense. So it survives, grows,revives and surges, and It’s enemies will sadly never join forces.

        Historically Russia has always been against radical Islam; this is why you never hear of the Golden Horde today, or the Khanates of Crimea or Astrakhan or Kazan either, to use examples.

  3. Jeff, not sure if you can comment, today on my YouTube channel, a climate scientist from the UK tried challenging me on the topic that the Grand Solar Minimum will not happen. When I asked him what happens if the global geo-political scene shifts from peace and stability to a focus on food only caused by adverse weather events linked to the Grand Solar Minimum. This same UK climate scientist also went against Grand Solar Minimum News another Youtube channel which warns people about the Grand Solar Minimum for so-called ‘spreading disinformation’. This same UK Climate scientist has also dismissed the discussion of China going to war over food in a Grand Solar Minimum scenario because their population number is a issue as well:

  4. ohngineer, you said;

    ”Russian revenge on Poland took place by the dismemberment of Poland.”

    Three Empires divided up Poland, which was an Empire itself, over a period of time. The Romanovs were as the Hohenzollerns and the Habsburgs.

    ” Poland had no national existence for over 100 years because of Imperial Russia.”

    See above.

    ”The Red Army invaded ca 1920.”

    Wrong. Marshal Pilsudski’s forces took advantage of the Russian Civil War and invaded Russia in 1919. The Red Army beat them back all the way to the Vistula.

    ” The Poles managed to beat them back.”

    It would have been better had they not tried to revive their 16th century Empire in the first place.

    ”He is also attempting to rewrite history.”

    If you show some history,you would surprise me. As it is you have some ethno-tribal and/or religious hatreds for Russians and for Orthodox Christianity; it’s obvious. Were it not Marxist Leninists,it would have to be another ”reason” with you.

    ” As Jeff points out, Russia is profiting from the situation and is certainly not standing against it.”

    I’d say Turkey among others is profiting more. Like I said, if Russia hadn’t intervened when it did, Damascus would have fallen and an Islamist regime would be in Syria, with horrible consquences for the world.

    ”The work on this started under Stalin and has simply grown since then. Putin is, like a good pupil of Stalin, using it.”

    You know little of what you hate. Russia is post-communist and post-soviet. I have my issues with the way things have played out there since 1991, but I trust the Russian people, always, to sort it out eventually.

    1. But the Russian people do not rule Russia. A group of secretive people out of the CPSU security apparatus control the media and Russia’s key industries. There are many serious questions about this.

      1. Serious questions about serious people. People do not want to rule, because people do not want to know how the soup is made, just that it tastes good as a result.

    2. If I hated Russia, you would have a point. I do not hate Russia, but the points I made do stand. For you to say that Russia is post-communist and post-soviet says you haven’t paid much attention to what Mr. Nyquist has said.

      1. No, I actually read what you say too. Mr. Nyquist no doubt knows I understand him quite well. My narrative differs. Like the story of the seven blind men and the elephant, you have to look at every aspect of a thing. As it stands, what is it that you actually know, compared to what you merely assert?

  5. ohngineer, you said;

    ”Vladimir, your last sentence is utterly laughable.”

    That is because you have no historical sense. The Romanov drive to westernize Russia led to the education and disillusionment of Westernized intellectuals who seized upon Western-born Marxism to revolutionize society and make the leap of progress fancied by atheistic intellectuals in the West

    1. Oh please. Quite often outsiders have a better position to see what is going on in a country than the residents. This was the case for the misnamed US civil war in Great Britain, and is the case in Russia. Your statement is still risible as is your response.

      1. Quite a bit of presumptive hubris there, but then I see that even more with your aside concerning the US Civil War. The English papers were full of hypocritical cant (”Perfidious Albion” has long been a real criticism of their Elites to this day), as they excoriated the North for trying to keep the Union together, while bemoaning the pro-slavery forces those same Elites profited from.

  6. Greyknight, you said about my comment on Israel and Islam that;

    ”Nosir, it surely doesn’t. I feel strong anti-Islamic sentiment, no matter what other countries do or dont exist, lol. When I see a Muslim -and there are a few in my area- I feel that I am looking at a mortal enemy, because by their training and ideology that is what they are. I hope that they turn to Christ, but I cant help but have very strong feelings of resentment whenever I happen to see them. Which, thankfully, is rare.

    Even my beloved Southland is not free from the scourge.”

    By ”training and ideology” indeed. Did Marxist-Leninists from the former Soviet Union fan the flames of Islamist revival? Sure, they contributed.

    At some point with the decay of Ideology, all that is often left are the hatreds and paranoias, and the residue of previous propaganda stories. Governments and peoples alike march along by inertia and reaction in familiar grooved ruts, especially when disappointments shock and alarm them. Post-Communists cheer on and support people who would gladly send them to Jehennom once they take over. This video, although Liberal,makes a few good points;

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ElUwMUO3ttU

    (Now, Clannishness is a feature all over the world, not just Chechnya,but it’s a going thing in the FSU. When things fall apart, it is what works, a new Feudalism, maybe in future.)

    What should shock and alarm though is the already mentioned growth in numbers and power of the Muslims. I see non-muslim couples with one or two children at the most, maybe three or four. A short time ago I saw a playground with a Muslim woman and her children; I counted eight children. They believe in their future…And while Marxist-Leninists have few children, the Christians somewhat more. Who will replicate their desired future? Even the Chinese are getting old, a real crisis.

    The American South… Did you know that the favorite English language bestseller in Russia is ”Gone with the Wind”? More clannishness, family, hierarchy, survival and getting things done. There’s a saying; ”the Kremlin has many towers”…Clans all the way to the top, intrigue…

      1. This is very true, Mr. Nyquist. They are not stupid or short-sighted.

      2. Jeff wrote, “They are having children as their is no women’s liberation in Muslim culture”. That is so true. A parallel of Islam to Nazi Germany–both have sought to promote breeding as part of the spreading of their ideology and at same time to develop a whole new flock of eager recruits to throw into the war.

    1. Vladimir, that was an interesting video. I had never looked too much into Chechnya, other than I remember when the terrorists from there took over the school and killed almost half of the hostages. I remember l was surprised to learn that Khadyrov and the republic of Georgia were Muslim.

      There used to be far more clannishness in the South. A lot of it is gone, but in the rural areas it is still strong in some ways. Unfortunately, many of us have become apathetic. I was blessed to be in a strong family, but family ties in my generation have weakened as most in the past 2 generations have moved to the cities, and been indoctrinated at big universities. I had to cut ties with 1st cousins I had been very close to growing up, because the govt overreach due to Coronavirus, and the BLM/Antifa riots revealed strong fundamental differences between us.

      I believe the differences come from things they were taught at the universities, because I dont believe they were raised to support such nonsense as BLM and government trying to control every aspect of our lives, ie “wear a mask, stay 6 ft apart, stay home, take the shot, etc, etc”. But they not only fell in line with all of that, but expected everyone else to as well. It is sad.

      1. Greyknight,you said;

        ”Vladimir, that was an interesting video.

        Yes, Russia had the good fortune to win Chechnya as part of her five wars with Iran/Persia.

        ”There used to be far more clannishness in the South. A lot of it is gone, but in the rural areas it is still strong in some ways. Unfortunately, many of us have become apathetic.

        The major real reason for Stalin’s collectivization was to force millions working in Agriculture and have them look for work in the factories in the cities which were built with the sale of raw materials to the West. Many American engineers and technicians in the USSR in the 1920’s and 1930’s helped set things up. Russia was already quickly Industrializing before the Revolution, but basically Stalin felt Russia had 10 years to Industrialize where it took the West 100 years. At tremendous cost, the Russia did. Anyway, moving to the cities of millions had a profound effect on life, cushioned to a degree by the collective effort but also with the nationalist understanding that sooner or later, Germany and other Western powers would be at war with the Soviet Union, and thus with Russia too. People often lived in large communal barracks, with several families together and little privacy. If anything, it all made the bonds stronger.

        ”I believe the differences come from things they were taught at the universities, because I dont believe they were raised to support such nonsense as BLM and government trying to control every aspect of our lives, ie “wear a mask, stay 6 ft apart, stay home, take the shot, etc, etc”. But they not only fell in line with all of that, but expected everyone else to as well. It is sad.”

        This BLM and ”Antifa” is a joke, except that the resistance to it’s lunacy is even more of a joke. I don’t want to say anything that might be misunderstood, but this sort of nonsense would not be tolerated outside the Western world. What in the hell is wrong with people, tolerating these scum?! It’s not so much a Marxist ideology, but an absolute inversion and reversal of the Hitlerite Ideology. Everybody even Marx knew that there is a heirarchy of peoples and individuals alike, and the Apostle says that ”star differs from star in glory”, still remaining a star… Like i’ve said before,fools in the West are less loved. And the sign is that their idiocy is tolerated more.

      2. That same scum — as you call Antifa snd BLM — is running China and Russia. Only in China and Russia they control major institutions from which they draw more sophisticated helpers to help them entrench their power. They hold power by virtue of cultivating the “classics” of their Satanic creed.

  7. Vladimir in full damage limitation mode I see. “Cui bono? Russia, maybe a bit, but… Turkey much more so!!!” I knew this article would make you squirm.

    1. ”Squirm”,anonymous? There’s enough ammunition for everyone to shoot each other in the circular firing squad that should be forming against militant Islam.

    2. This vatnik is the biggest clown we’ve had posting here in a long time. I’m just surprised Mr. Nyquist hasn’t picked up on it yet but continues to treat him like a serious person. He is even himself a self-admitted totalitarian, amongst all his other faults and absurdities.

      1. So, true to malignant form, you stoop to Anti-Russian xenophobic Vatniki slur from the start; what is next for such spiritual dwarves, calling people ”Moskals”,or ”Sovoks” or perhaps ”Gopniks”? It is psychologically similar to Anti-Semitism, and it comes as no surprise that it is often connected to it; maybe to you I am really a ”Zhid”?. I am thinking that Mr. Nyquist treats me as a ”serious person” because he is intelligent to recognize an adult, a ”serious person”, when talking to me. Our differences proceed from more of the realm of philosophies, than whatever ethno-tribal and/or religious primitivism you draw your negative energy from.

        What’s more, is that you are lying directly about me, saying that I am a ”self-admitted totalitarian” when I am nothing of the kind. As for my ”faults and absurdities”, I’m sure that I have them, but you lack the self-awareness to understand that my efforts to counter xenophobia by displaying the humanity of myself and my dear Russian people, do not qualify as ”faults and absurdities”. For it is painfully obvious that your mental task is to demonize and villify, because these things are necessary for most in their hearts and minds, to get them to kill other human beings.

        Are you a Fascist, Ricardo Galvan? Muslim? Some kind of religious or nationalist reactionary? Funny that your beliefs are not under the microscope, because you are too busy flinging excrement for people to ask you any important questions.

  8. The whole global terrorism was invented by CPSU, KGB and GRU. And now is controĺled by Lubyanka square – FSB headquarters. FSB controls Russia entirely and that means that both GRU and SVR are controlled by KGB/FSB. So the ultimate problem in this world is called FSB. All military conflicts around the globe were provoked by Russia and its proxies – China, Iran, Cuba, Venezuela, etc. The Russian mafia controls 95%-100% of the global organised crime, including the global drug trafficking. China is Russia’s proxy and that means that Moscow indirectly controls Huawei, Tik Tok and the Chinese economic expansion around the world. The Russian federation – terrorist and mafia state number one!

    1. ”Stefan Stankov”, I think you do more to destroy your own credibility in your monomaniacal Russophobia, when you spout nonsense about China being controlled by Russia.

    1. Islam surge into the West. Specifically, Muslim radicals training camps, communities on USA .

      1. One was brought to light in my general area several years ago. It in the middle of nowhere, Alabama. I believe it is no longer being used, but it was at one point.

    1. The ”Ultimate Problem” is Islamofascists and OUN/B fanboys and similar cretins.

  10. Th EU has plenty of useful idiots installed in key positions of governance, but I would argue that they are Zionist controlled rather than taking orders from Moscow:

    The BBC is far from a reliable transparent news source:
    https://bbcpanoramasavingsyriaschildren.wordpress.com/

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YaOoQxT7Ug

    I see parallels with the current EU migrant crisis and the influx of death squad members from Guatemala in the 1980’s.

    When one looks at the divisive LBGT trends and BLM organisations the literature behind these movements and the capitol supporting them is 99.9% Jewish in origin.

    I am surprised that you could write such a detailed article on Syria without making more than cursory references to Israel’s influence in the region.

    Sure, Russia is well positioned to capitalise on the situation, but let us not forget that US in the guise of Senator John McCain had first boots on the ground in 2012 providing intel support and weaponry to ISIS.

    One of the key strategic pieces to the middle east destabilisation is missed out entirely from your article, namely the destruction of Libya, that certainly wasn’t the fault of any Russian….

  11. Mr. Nyquist, maybe if Commit had read the article a little more closely, he wouldnt have tipped has hand so easily, lol

    1. As soon as they mention the Jews or Israel you know what kind of a safari it will be. And they will always deny being antisemites. So predictable.

      1. ”Predictable Primitives”, one might call them, lol. One can easily critique Jewish religion and culture, but this is a different thing I think.

  12. I used to know a young Somali in the city I live in, who had arrived in my country several years before the 2015 “refugee” crisis. Although he didn’t look like being overly into Islamic “tradition”, he still apparently followed the five-times-a-day Islamic prayer routine and attended the weekly Friday prayer. However, his overall behaviour displayed nothing but contempt for his new home country, and he didn’t care much about following rules or good manners. Also, he was talking a highly aggressive anti-colonial talk. A contradictory, if not to say suspicious, fellow for sure. One day, I saw him with a book by, of all authors, Noam Chomsky (!) in his hands. I asked him how come he read such literature. He first didn’t quite know what to say and then came up with the flimsy excuse that he wanted to improve his language skills. When I insisted that to read Chomsky meant reading a leading intellectual of the American hard left, he simply shrugged his shoulders and said, well, he merely wanted to learn about that viewpoint as well…

    On October 3, 2015, there was held a big (free-of-charge) propaganda event called “Voices for Refugees” on Heldenplatz in Austria’s capital Vienna. Half Rock concert, half radical-left political manifestation, it lasted for six and a half hours and was attended by more than 100,000 people, who had also come in droves from abroad. In the street demonstrations preceding the concert, one could see Red Banners with Hammer & Sickle on them and all kinds of radical slogans! Then-Austrian head of state Heinz Fischer, a rabid socialist who in his role as State President pretended to be “non-partisan” which he never was, nevertheless joined the occurance, “dignifying” it with his “statesmanly” revolutionary presence. What a communist farce from beginning to end! This was the “Refugees Welcome!” side of the dialectic in action. Here is a full recording of the event:

    Part 1/2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ewaK-U0xwjM

    Part 2/2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjWyh9Y6NBA

    1. Chomsky is the worst of the worst. No religion in him at all. Islam and atheistic socialism share one vision: the destruction of the West.

      1. Mr. Nyquist, the interesting thing about Noam Chomsky is that while the man is a total Atheist and Materialist, he absolutely proved in his earlier scientific work that it is literally impossible for human language to have evolved from Animal sounds. This was not popular with the Scientific establishment, so now he’s known for his politics, not his contributing another nail into the coffin of Evolutionary theories.

  13. Well Jeff, It seems this site isn’t for me after all. You scrubbed my comment that I took time to place resources in. You could always have responded or provided correction if you disagreed, but you decided instead to censor. More fool me for wasting the time, it won’t happen again.
    Happy Zionism!

    1. Well, he is an imperialist and zionist shill, but unlike others, he understands that his side lost.

      1. This is really crazy. I am neither an imperialist nor a Zionist. It is simply absurd to lay that at my door because I do not believe in your Jewish conspiracy theories.

    2. I did not scrub your comment. In fact, I hit the spot I’ve button when I saw it just now. I do have to sleep on occasion. It was waiting for me to approve and I woke up to a series of calls that kept me off the site, and am only now going through comments. When you post links it requires me to hit an approve button. Not sure why WordPress does this. I do not scrub comments without warning.

  14. So Jeff, do you think there’s anyone above the FSB in the Russian security state, or is the head of the FSB about to be the ruler of the world, once NATO & other Western countries are conquered (or experience Marxist revolutions) and out of the way?

    1. You are asking about “Russia’s secret rulers,” which is a complicated question, and a controversial question, because we have interlocking “systems” of economy and politics at work. The USSR was a state capitalist system masquerading as a command economy (with a KGB/black market economy undergirding it — if you will forgive my simplifications). By definition, the Soviet system was never communist. Marxist-Leninist texts are very clear on this. The CPSU was “building socialism.” Real communism, said Marx, is only possible once the power of capital is smashed throughout the whole world. This has never happened and will never happen (in my opinion). Therefore, if anyone says that communist ideology is dead in Russia, they are admitting to a misunderstanding: first, because Marxism-Leninism was and is not an ideology, but a “science”; and second, because the ruling party was run by Marxist-Leninists (i.e., scientists of Revolution) who nonetheless recognized that a slow process of reformatting human consciousness was needed as a prologue to success. Please understand, if you are able: Marxist “science” needs to be differentiated from the slogans and active measures used to produce the necessary effects needed for the Revolution to succeed. Marxism is not a slogan shouted by a Marxist stooge. It is not the propaganda of global warming, or feminism, or LGBT rights, or even “all power to the Soviets.” No. Marxism is the science of developing these slogans in order to smash the existing culture tactically and strategically. None of these slogans are scientifically true or true in any sense. An attack on the left flank is not true or false. Scientifically, it is either the correct strategy or it is incorrect. Experimentally it leads to success or failure. So, yes, Marxist ideology was dead in Russia because there never was any Marxist ideology, just the slogans needed by the “scientific managers” of human affairs (acknowledged by Lenin). This was never Marxism, but the world took it to be Marxism. Therefore, setting it aside was not a defeat for Marxism, but a step up for the science of Marxist management. It is clear to those who follow events carefully, that the “science” of Marxism-Leninism yet provides the Russian and other state systems with a steady stream of ideas, analyses, strategies, and opens the door to “allies” in the non-communist world. The Communist Party, in just about any country you might name, could rarely succeed in holding power after a free and fair election. So, given all this, who rules Russia? A gang of secret police officers with no guiding principles (except greed)? Following what plan? In alliance with what political forces at home and abroad? Using what techniques or higher-level concepts? The answers here cannot be evaded. Without Marxism-Leninism, they could not succeed for want of coherence. Of course, they cannot advertise their ideas. And why should they? In America, the friends of the Revolution hold an increasingly powerful position in the state and culture. What fool denies it? You may object that I am rigidly adhering to Cold War preconceptions. But I am not. My thinking is highly adaptive and flexible. I affirm, here and now, that we must remain open to evidence. Mine is not a preconception. As soon as there is real evidence of a change — philosophically and organizationally — in Russia, I will be the first to embrace it, commend it, and draw hope from it. But I tell you, there is no authentic evidence of genuine change. The system has not changed there. It has been reorganized for the purposes of executing a more effective political attack. If you follow all the evidence carefully, if you listen to the witnesses — true and false — you will see there is something to what I am saying. I watch closely for contradicting evidence. So far, Russia supports all the communist countries around the world. Her commitment to Orthodoxy is a lie, a false front. Facts must count more than wishful thinking. Russia works with China, North Korea, Cuba, etc. Here is coherency. Here is how you read the Kremlin. The secret police under Putin grabbed, for themselves, key industries and businesses. Yes. They are thieves. They took advantage of the disarray which set in with Gorbachev’s grand maneuver. They enriched themselves. The mafiya complex does exist. But they could never hold power without the academies of science and the “brain” of the Soviet state. Here was intellectual coherency. Here were governing principles, however evil we think they were. Policemen who are, in principle, the same as gangsters, could never rule without ideas. And so, they are clearly dependent on the old “science” of Marx and Lenin, and upon the secret structures the communist movement built for itself around the world. Here is a philosophy, a new kind of religion in the form of politics, striving to remake the world and man. You ask, therefore, if there “is anyone above” the FSB? Of course there is. A policeman has almost no ideas. He is politically empty. And a corrupt policemen is even more helpless and dependent than a corrupt general. To rule means to have ideas. Oh yes, it is ideas — always — that qualify rulers and guide them. Whoever manufactures our ideas rules over us, whether we are policemen or businessmen or aristocrats. So, then, communism is still there.

      1. Mr. Nyquist, the ”Scientific Management of human beings” has been going on for a long time, well before the Bolsheviks came to power (which they could not done without their interface with wartime military intelligence in Russia and the coterie of police spies within Bolshevism) the intellectuals could do no more then than they can now; talk. It took men of action to test those theories when they thought them useful.

        Now, these same kind of men carry water for Islamics, because they think with it they have better chances, for pragmatic utilitarian reasons.

        I have more to say but that is what is necessary for now.

      2. Marxism is indeed a religion, one whose mantras must increasingly be recited and espoused, with North Korean style visible vigour, by all who wish to be accepted as upstanding citizens in the West nowadays. Just wait until hearty adherence to those mantras becomes not just an evidence of faith, but the means of staying alive and keeping your biometric credit in the black, upon pain of being unable to buy or sell or travel or otherwise cancelled.

  15. I personally think that the director of the Russian FSB Alexander Bortnikov wouldn’t be the most powerful man on Earth, but certainly one of the most powerful men on the planet. It’s important to know that Russia is in charge of the global terrorism, the Cuban intelligence, the Iranian IRGC, etc. and using these and other structures they are leading a global war against the West. The terrorism serves to attack Western targets around the globe and especially to destroy gas and oil instalations in order to deprive the West from foreign oil and gas and to make it buy more energy resources from Russia. And on the other side, oil and gas prices increase due to the terrorist attacks against the energy infrasturcture. Russia killed 30-40% of the Chechen population during the wars in order to get the oil resources of Chechnya and to have access to the oil from Caspian sea, which is worth trillions of dollars. The same was the reason to annex Crimea and Russia is led again by its energy imperialism in the Arctic. FSB, SVR and GRU are the biggest terrorists and gangsters on the planet!

    1. Ah, again I sense an Islamic Chechen ideology and/or that of the Galician fanboys. Probably Chechen.

  16. Off topic but…

Scotland keeps a running total of the deaths in the first four weeks after vaccination. That number is 5522, keeping in mind there are only 5.5 million people in Scotland. The United States population is 330 million or 60 times that of Scotland. Cypher that math, and is there any doubt that the United States doesn’t keep such records?

  17. Commit, I realize that some global capitalists greatly contribute to the “refugee” problems in America, as in for example, the meat processing industry being instrumental in bringing thousands of Somalis into the U.S. But the article was talking about how Russian govt is either creating the refugee crisis in Europe, or greatly helping it along and taking advantage of it for Communism’s own ends.

    But yes, it is a fact that many at the top of major industries are plumb greedy, and cause policies to be enacted to bring cheap, foreign labor into areas to benefit their bottom line.

    But then you had to go blame Israel for “fueling anti-Islam sentiment in the West”. I am no Zionist. I think the govt and elites of Israel, are just as corrupt as those of China, Russia, America, Canada, or any other country. However, I also know that the Jews are God’s chosen people, and He will bring them back to Himself, and that those who bless them will be blessed, and those who curse them will be cursed.

    Be that as it may. To go blaming Israel for something that the article clearly shows that Russian govt is behind, makes me think you are one of the trolls referred to, or maybe a Nazi type. I dont know.

    As far as me trying to sow discord between Muslims and Jews, do you not realize that the very essence of Islam is discord between it and all who will not submit to it, be they Jews, Christian’s, Hindus, or whatever?

    Islam creates it’s own anti-Islam sentiment. I desire no coexistence with Islam, my friend. For by Islam’s own doctrine, that cannot be.

    1. Commit, you should read the book Thomas Jefferson and the Tripoli Pirates, by Brian Kilmeade and Don Yaeger.

  18. Organized crime seems to have hijacked the US government, as well. There would appear to be competing crime families, staking out territory.

  19. Jeff, thanks for your answer. That makes a lot of sense. So you’re saying you think there’s some higher political apparatus within Russia applying Marxist-Leninist theory to different political situations and scenarios both in Russia and around the world, moving all nations toward Marxism? And giving commands that move through different networks of operatives— be they political, religious, criminal, business, intelligence service networks, etc.? I wonder how many millions of operatives we’re talking about throughout the world, and how many organizations they’ve infiltrated. To be at the top of that structure, calling the shots, committing the kind of crimes they’ve committed… it’s almost impossible to even imagine the person or group of persons who must be in charge. To call them psychopaths would be an understatement!

    1. I believe collegial bodies of Marxists in Russia and China, coordinating with similar bodies in other countries, are advancing the cause of the Revolution.

      1. Mr. Nyquist, you said;

        ”I believe collegial bodies of Marxists in Russia and China, coordinating with similar bodies in other countries, are advancing the cause of the Revolution.”

        Ah, but let’s look at one of these coordinators as an example, a now deceased General (died in 2019 ), who was deputy chief of the Soviet General Staff and President of the Russian Academy of Military Sciences;

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Makhmut_Gareev

        Oh, but the name indicates something interesting…. Yes, he was Muslim, a Bashkir Tatar. Now mind you, certainly a ”Coordinator” of some kind, and I find his stance on the Great Patriotic War to be correct, but Marxism didn’t teach him much more than what he already knew from life as an ethnic Tatar Muslim in Russia. And he sure got sent to the Middle East alot to be an Advisor in Muslim countries…

        Muslim, Marxist. Russian Patriot.

        I don’t think the answers are as simplistic as I would prefer them to be.

      2. No, the answers are not simple, Men need ideas to live by, Gareev was not a Russian nationalist any more than Stalin was — despite the Great Patriotic War. The truth about the war he defended was probably not the full truth; but I do not know for sure. If the people would not fight for Marxism, the Marxists would have to make a concession. What of it? Gareev is clearly not a Tatar patriot. I would willingly gamble that he was not a Muslim. What remains? Whose creature could he possibly be? No, don’t tell me and spoil it. HE WAS A MARXIST-LENINIST! Of course. And an advisor to Afghan president Mohammad Najibulla, the “bull,” who was not by any means a Muslim either. Another Marxist-Leninist. But such people are not to be spoken of. Lower your voice. Look away.

    2. “I wonder how many millions of operatives we’re talking about throughout the world…”

      Russia’s population, according to the latest figures available (non – public statistics from 2006), is 132,000,000 people.
      Out of the total population of Russia:
      · 81,840,000 (62) are people of pensionable age or approaching it;
      ·1,736,000 are servicemen of all kinds (career military and national servicemen) and employees of military-related enterprises and scientific institutes (this figure includes 1,686 generals and admirals);
      · 2,140,000 are serving members of the FSB (Federal Security Service, former KGB), FSO (Federal Protection Service), FPS (Federal Frontier Service), FAPSI (Federal Agency for Government Communications), SVR (Foreign Intelligence Service), FMS (Federal Migration Service), etc etc;
      · 2,270,000 are serving members of the Ministry for Emergency Situations, Ministry of the Interior, Internal Armed Forces, Ministry of Justice, Narcotics Control, and State Prosecutor’s Office;
      · 1,957,000 are employed in the customs, tax, sanitary, and other inspections services;
      · 1,985,000 are civil servants employed by federal ministries and organizations;
      · 1,870,000 are civil servants in various authorities and local representation;
      · 1,741,000 are civil servants in various licensing, inspection, and registration bodies;
      · 2,439,000 are clerks in pension, social service, state insurance, and other offices;
      · 797,000 are employed in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and government representations abroad (UN, UNESCO, etc)
      · 692,000 are priests and others involved in the maintenance of religious buildings and so on;
      · 2,357,000 work as public notaries, in legal services, as lawyers, or are in prison;
      · 1,775,600 work as security guards, detectives, etc in private security agencies;
      · 5,780,000 are unemployed (Rosstatistic figure).

      So the total number of people who produce nothing and get their wages out of the state budget or from wealthy fellow citizens (or rather from traitors placed in all governments of the world, because Russia is subsidized by the betrayed West and the rest of the world – author’s note) ​is 109,397,600. That leaves 22,602,400 to do everything else.

      However, the greatest pleasure of Russians is sitting at the Computers and writing lies and slanders
      (especially slanders against the USA and Western Europe) on all social networks around the world. That’s why people in the US are so confused and tired when they discuss (without knowing it) with Russian and Chinese liars and crooks.

      “, and how many organizations they’ve infiltrated.”

      https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J2nlz7ZM1Ag

      All indications are that the KGB has infiltrated the United States and the West in all power structures, including international organizations and the world mass media.

      Russia is a hellish empire that will subvert and occupy the whole world!

      1. What a paranoiac monstrosity, a genuine blood libel. It is a shame that the Western nations decided since the1960’s to de-institutionalize it’s mental patients.

      2. Thats absolutely correct, what you said.
        And yes – the communism is a religion.

  20. Vladimir, yes, hard times do seem to cause folks from rural/farming areas to pull together and try to help each other out where they can. No doubt, the Russian people from the agricultural areas, bonded closer together under the weight of Stalin’s forced relocations and hard labor.

    And yes, the response to BLM/Antifa has been weak. But I can tell you of an instance where they tried to come in 2 or 3 busses to a small town near me. Locals turned out, lining the streets waiting, fully armed and ready. And willing. Nothing happened. Would-be rioters moved on. Of course, something like that is not going to make mainstream news.

    In the cities, it has been so pathetic. The only way to stop a mob, is to send a few of the mob to their maker.

    Kyle Rittenhouse did very well, I must say. And the upside down justice system went after him.

  21. Mr. Nyquist, you asked me about the proverbial ”soup” that people would just as soon eat and not think about what was done to make it;

    ”Does it taste good? ”

    Depends on who you ask. Surely you know that Aristocracy is natural, that you absolutely cannot keep a good man down forever?

    Another proverb;

    ”The laws are very strict, but not enforced”.

    The rulers of this world pretend to rule us, and we pretend to be ruled. Nobody dares to go where they will not be followed. And I have seen that the Russian People have much patience but no mercy to their tormentors.

    I have tried to show the cultural code involved here, with various sayings and stories and tales. Basically, there are two ”Russias”. One has it’s cranium firmly up it’s posterior and is totally enamored with the West and it’s intellectual fashions, so intellectuals and the grifters of various kinds.They can only rule by fear and/or fraud,when they do rule. The other Russia is very ”deplorable”, more so than any American ”deplorable”, regarded by the previously mentioned as savage and alien and in dire need of correction and instruction, being innately ignorant, superstitious, barbarous, reactionary, patriarchal, etc… There is about as much difference between the Two Russias as between an Cosmonaut and an Aborigine, I imagine. The latter vastly outnumbers the former.

    If ”good soup” is not provided, they will kick all their rotten heads in and all the church bells will ring with joy;

    (Note the Crosses with the Crescents below them.)

  22. You are most likely right. Albert Pike, designer of the roadmap for three world wars, did say we have Muslims on our side. He meant the Salafi/Wahhabi sects. On a side note, I understood that Bolshevik revolution in Russia in 1917 was a Zionist, Khazaarian revolution by War Revolution Movement by Khazaarian fake Jews. Their goal is world domination by deceit. Isn’t that also the motto of Mossad? They think that when their Meshiach (Anti-Christ) arrive they will rule the world for a thousand years. Ultimate, God Almighty controls the world. Thank you.

      1. That sort of thing is rife in many parts of the world and with certain belief systems

    1. Saeed: you need to read history a bit more closely. The Bolshevik revolution had many people who by ancestry were Jews. However, like their hero Karl Marx, they hated their birthright as Jews so were antisemites and anti-Zionists. History rejects your canard that this was all part of a Jewish/Zionist plot.

  23. Mr. Nyquist, you said with regards to how ”Politics” is done that;

    ”Am I mistaken, or did not Aristotle say that politics was not scientific, but was more like cookery?”

    Found the quote in Plato’s ”Gorgias”, where his Socrates says; ”Rhetoric is to justice what cookery is to medicine. ”

    Someone must have been hungry today, lol.

  24. Mr. Nyquist, you said;

    ”That same scum — as you call Antifa snd BLM — is running China and Russia. Only in China and Russia they control major institutions from which they draw more sophisticated helpers to help them entrench their power. They hold power by virtue of cultivating the “classics” of their Satanic creed.”

    ”Satanic Creed”, sure. Many men have sold their souls for worldly things and passions.

    More sophisticated too, perhaps. And too, maybe quite afraid and thus more circumspect. In China they have full sway. Most other nations. In Russia they have to lie. Although I’ll let you in on a secret; lying on a grand scale has been going on for a long time, Centuries before formal open Bolshevism. I will show you a link to something which will illustrate, maybe Google can translate if necessary;

    http://zarpetr.ru/

    I hope that you like historical/political mysteries,that blog is just the tip of the iceberg.

    You would be surprised how common is this belief to this very day. ”The Liar” was the first Bolshevik of Russia, many still call him an ”Antichrist”in the Orthodox Christian sense, I know I do.

      1. With the Liar, who did not resemble the Tsar Peter hardly at all and who looked about ten years older, than the Tsar who had left during the ”Great Embassy”, who after his ”return” spoke or wrote no more Russian but instead in Dutch, German, and Latin (Latin which the Tsar didn’t know or use before his trip), and recounted tales of sea piracy to his foreign friends like a professional -when the actual Tsar hated the seas-and who died of yellow fever, a tropical disease,etc… Who moved the capital to the brand new Westernized city of St.Petersburg that he built upon the corpses of over 200,000 workmen, who persecuted everything about the Old Russia right down to the clothing, the alphabet, and even the wearing of beards, who engaged in long foreign wars for dubious interests, and upended the economy so that perhaps a third of the population died by the time his reign ended, who was impious, blasphemous and a persecutor of Orthodoxy, who slept his first several years back every night laying his head on a soldiers belly after having immediately divorcing ”his” wife after ”he” returned (then later married a literal commoner prostitute of foreign origin), who had a constant nervous facial tic after ”his” trip, who had executed, tortured to death or exiled almost everyone he ”knew” before or never saw them ”again”…. I’d say that he was the ”father” of the Bolsheviks in important ways.

    1. Vladimir…

      Many thanks for your link to http://zarpetr.ru/ above. I have just briefly perused that site using Yandex to translate and read it. What an interesting site!

      1. You’re welcome, I found it to be interesting too, noting that it has long been common in Russia to suspect a switch to a Tsar Peter double after his trip to the West ended. Alexander Pushkin (who was the grandson of Tsar Peter’s Ethiopian personal manservant Hannibal) hinted at it, a few others in oblique ways.

  25. Vladimir, first I wrote my comment twice because there was a problem in my phone and the system blocked. Second, all I wrote about Russia was confirmed by many defectors and dissidents from the Eastern bloc, including people I personally know. And third, I won’t tell you what exactly and from who I’ve learnt and it’s not necessary. I come from Bulgaria, a post-communist country, so I know people who told me many things about Russia and the Russian intelligence. I repeat, I won’t tell you what exactly and from who I’ve learnt. Am I clear? And on the other side, I am 99,99% sure China is Russian proxy. Because USSR trained the Chinese army, the Chinese intelligence and created the Chinese communist party. Then came the fake Sino-Soviet split during which and after this split the recruited by KGB during the 50’s Chinese politicians continued to run China until the beginning of this century. That’s all!

    1. You’ve said what you’ve said ”Anonymous”. I’ll just say that I ask you to remember that the Russia that helped liberate Bulgarians from the Turk is still alive, the Russia of General Skobolev and of Aksakov.

      1. I won’t deny that Russia helped the Bulgarians but I talk about the current Russia’s policy and Russia’s intelligence secret activities. And yes, I am Stefan Stankov but you probably have already understood that.

      2. Vladimir — in your earlier post, are you inferring that Tsar Peter the Great was replaced by an impostor, e.g. “the Liar”?

        If so, I see no reference to any such controversy in Wikipedia. In fact, of Peter, it says:

        Peter grew to be extremely tall as an adult, especially for the time period. Standing at 6 ft 8 (203 cm) in height, the Russian tsar was literally head and shoulders above his contemporaries both in Russia and throughout Europe.[8] Peter, however, lacked the overall proportional heft and bulk generally found in a man that size. Both his hands and feet were small,[9][citation needed] and his shoulders were narrow for his height; likewise, his head was small for his tall body. Added to this were Peter’s noticeable facial tics, and he may have suffered from petit mal, a form of epilepsy.

        How on Earth could someone impersonate a queer looking giant like that?

        Methinks you’re wearing your own version of a tinfoil hat??

  26. Anonymous, you said;

    ”I won’t deny that Russia helped the Bulgarians but I talk about the current Russia’s policy and Russia’s intelligence secret activities. And yes, I am Stefan Stankov but you probably have already understood that.”

    Time will reveal all things hidden, truth and lies, come the Judgement. I wish no harm on anyone and pray for all, in peace.

  27. Mr. Nyquist, since you talked about Islam, what’s your opinion about the Tariqas founded by René Guenon and Frithjof Schuon? Are they also related somehow to Russia? The brazilian philosopher Olavo de Carvalho was a member of this last one and said that numerous important political actors of Europe are also members, including nobles of the british royal family.

    1. Sufism is a form of mystical Islam that was fashionable with certain European intellectuals in the past. It was one of those religious fads that appear and disappear. Olavo later converted to Catholicism and is no longer an adherent of Guenon, and I do not know how many European “nobles” continue with that fad. Islam is coming more and more into conflict with European peoples and institutions, which are not Islamic.

  28. ”VirtualConservative1” you said;

    ”Vladimir — in your earlier post, are you inferring that Tsar Peter the Great was replaced by an impostor, e.g. “the Liar”?”

    Yes, I am.

    ”If so, I see no reference to any such controversy in Wikipedia. In fact, of Peter, it says:”

    Wikipedia is useful, but since Peter was a modernizer he is somewhat well regarded, and such contrary talk about him as is out there is not liable to be seriously considered.

    ”Peter grew to be extremely tall as an adult, especially for the time period. Standing at 6 ft 8 (203 cm) in height, the Russian tsar was literally head and shoulders above his contemporaries both in Russia and throughout Europe.[8] Peter, however, lacked the overall proportional heft and bulk generally found in a man that size. Both his hands and feet were small,[9][citation needed] and his shoulders were narrow for his height; likewise, his head was small for his tall body. Added to this were Peter’s noticeable facial tics, and he may have suffered from petit mal, a form of epilepsy.

    How on Earth could someone impersonate a queer looking giant like that?”

    No, the ”queer looking giant” impersonated the Tsar Peter, who was already tall (but not that tall!) but differently proportioned with a different face altogether. The theory being that the German Elector of Saxony and King of Poland (something of an amazing freak himself!) and friend of Tsar Peter, Augustus the Strong, actually found a prisoner/minion/mercenary adventurer to impersonate Tsar Peter.

    ”Methinks you’re wearing your own version of a tinfoil hat??”

    Fake impersonators and rulers of Russia, successful or otherwise, are a ”dime a dozen”, seriously. Read about the ”False Dimitri” impersonators, here is an article on the most successful one;

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/False_Dmitry_I

    And Mr. Nyquist and I talked about a more recent example, the defector Col. Mikhail Goloniewski;

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Goleniewski

    1. Goleniewski did not successfully impersonate a ruling tsar, and nobody of any consequence believed his claims. It was speculated that he did this to discredit himself and avoid assassination. Alternatively, he could have been given a self-destruct drug by the Russian special services. Or maybe he lost his mind during his middle years after having risen to a high rank in Polish intelligence, then defecting. Readers can decide which explanation best fits the facts.

      1. This is true, but I referred to him as indeed being in a long line of persons claiming to be Russian rulers, or being put forwards as Russian rulers.

  29. Mr. Nyquist, you said with regards to the Tsar Peter double theory that;

    ”It sounds like an incredible theory. ”

    It is, but it’s one that many Russians have believed for centuries. For me it is not necessary to believe in it, as Tsar Peter was (double or not) a civilizational disaster in any case.

    1. I might add, that even today, there are those who think President Putin was replaced as a double. Conspiracy theories are common universally.

  30. Jeff, it was announced recently that the entire US military would receive the vaccine in September, shortly after the FDA is set to fully approve it. Are you concerned about this at all, that it might leave the US vulnerable to attack, given the frequency of side effects? Of particular concern is the clotting being detected in 62% of recipients, which can lead to a permanent condition known as Reduced Effort Tolerance – where recipients can no longer exert themselves. For anyone this would be a devastating diagnosis, but for our military, it could be decapitating.

    1. The Pentagon’s intelligence people should be investigating Chinese inputs into this vaccine product. Take a look at the claims of Dr. David Martin. He has some pretty interesting things to say about China’s role. These mRNA vaccines involve a very arcane technological chain of custody and development. China is connected to that chain. You need a decade of testing for safety on a vaccine like this. But nobody — nobody — has considered a vaccine vector attack. Safety may not be the issue. There might even be a triggering mechanism involving Nano-particles. You think every surprise attack involves missiles or bombers? If an enemy has penetrated your health system, you will see death on an unimagined scale if that enemy has inputs on your vaccines. The fact that the Chinese have a role in manufacturing vaccine precursors should leave us all in doubt as to the competence of our own officials. To push a vaccine that would normally require a decade of testing — to literally experiment with hundreds of millions of lives — is so monstrous an act, that every public official pushing it should be compelled to resign from public service. I cannot believe that we have become a guinea pig nation. In principle, we have lost our sense of self-preservation.

      1. Bravo Sir, so very well stated. We only guinea pigs voluntarily so far, but strongly coerced nonetheless. The pressure could become much greater, but I doubt that it will be mandated. People might not be allowed in any business establishment that accepts the privilege of a business license, though, but backlash is building, as in Melbourne, Australia, where people are marching in the streets against in home lock downs. The chant in response to propaganda: “A real virus needs no advertising”.

      2. This is going to be impossible for most reading it to believe, but I believe there will be mass executions of our elites for their role in this, once the tide turns. Yes, China is to the eyeballs in it, but our elites could have stopped it if they were truly guarding us. They got away with presiding over the genocide of countless millions of unborn infants and now they’re facilitating, if not encouraging, the genocide of as many of the rest of us as possible. God, Whom they refuse to acknowledge, will visit their iniquities upon them suddenly and require the blood of the innocent slain. It’s inevitable and unavoidable. They are in a world of trouble.

      3. Jeff, thank you for writing this insight! our progressive leaders in the USA and around the world who believe in their 100 year system that they have erected and are so confident in it that there is no possibility of problem. The public-health-academic-big-pharma-industrial-complex seems to be the ultimate fertile soil for a Trojan Horse to be inserted into.

  31. Why is the news nowadays always about what’s going to happen yet never does. Are the laws going to change to allow the FDA to approve unproven vaccines. Clinical trials take years, not weeks. Personally, I doubt that the FDA has been hijacked, as the Veteran’s Administration has, as evidenced by their requiring VA health workers to get vaccinated.

    Secretary Shinseki, held a press conference in front of the Jupiter, Florida VA, saying that: ‘There’s a culture of corruption here. I tried to clean it out and I wasn’t able to do it. Therefore, I hereby resign.
    (paraphrased).

  32. It’s Biden who predicts that the FDA will approve vaccines. The military is just following orders in saying that they are considering forced vaccinations. The key words are: ‘considering’, and ‘predicts’.

    The VA can require health care workers to get vaccinated, but the workers can refuse at risk of being fired for insubordination. Soldiers can’t be ordered to be vaccinated with unproven vaccines, because they can’t quit their jobs. If the vaccines were to be approved by the FDA, then the military would be able to order troops to be vaccinated, but it’s only Biden’s prediction, not what the FDA said that it’s going to do. In fact, the FDA would not say what it’s going to do, they would simply do it if and when vaccines proved safe.

    Biden is a bully. Bullies are cowards. They always back down when challenged. As long as people continue to wear useless masks which violate the Right to Free Speech, then Government fells that people can be further bluffed into anything.

    It’s time to wipe your ass with the mask and FedEx it to Fauci.

    1. Personally, I have seen very little evidence over the years that the military is an independent actor in terms of defending the U.S. Constitution. If the U.S. military is given the order to force Americans to be inoculated, it will eagerly do so. For the same reason rumours of a civil war have yet to verify. Armed Americans have yet to “take the fight” to the Deep State in D.C. Military-worship obscures the chain of command that leads directly to the Deep State. Standing armies, after all, are unconstitutional, and county sheriffs, rather than the police, should be in charge. Given that Obama serially violated the U.S. Constitution on a daily basis, why was there no military coup during Obama’s eight years?

      1. There is a continuity of policy in the military, irrespective of party affiliation of Commander and Chief. The Pentagon would argue with the Administration over stupidity and probably do so all the time.

        Seems to me that Biden shot off at the mouth as usual, then the lawyers reigned him in, then to save face, he says he can do what he wants but he changed his mind. It’s litigation that Biden’s handlers fear.

  33. Biden’s back pedaling already.

    [ “…despite his authority to do so…] ?

    BS!

    Right, just like he can punch out President Trump. He could do it if he wanted to. He just won’t for some unknown reason. BS!

    https://www.cnn.com/2021/07/27/politics/vaccine-mandate-for-federal-employees-under-consideration/index.html

    [ Biden will not impose the requirement on the US military, despite his authority to do so, for the time being. He is, however, likely to outline how the Department of Defense may seek to approach the issue going forward, the source said. ]

  34. My guess is that people feel sick after the vaccination, and anyone who says they have symptoms will be tested, and the spit snot test will invariably show trace of the virus. They just don’t call it Covid unless you have symptoms. No differentiating for Flu, Rhino Virus, or Pneumonia, either.

    In other words – you have not earned any victory, yet.

    1. Morality aside, If we were living as the Bible commands, we would not be coerced to wear masks and be vaccinated, in exchange for privileges. Rather, we would all be farmers, artisans, and craftsmen, trading amongst ourselves. Such discrete compartmentalization, evades the corporate monopoly which Fascism requires to function.

      When I was eight years old, my drunken uncle came over at seven am one Sunday morning and woke up the house. My dad had me take him out on the patio to entertain him, while he and my mother discussed what to do about him, as mom prepared breakfast for us all.

      Unk asked me if I had been getting any. I was clueless. He said that when he was my age, he was, to paraphrase, ‘bagging the babes.’ He handed me a silver dollar, a fifty cent piece, and a few dimes and quarters. He said “here’s what you do to get a girl. You put these coins in your pocket, walk over to a pretty girl, and jangle the change in your pocket.”

  36. Jeff Nyquist said:
    “Don’t forget China. You’ll hurt their feelings giving all the credit to Moscow.”

    Yes, China cannot be forgotten because the Chinese secret service GUOANBU and the Chinese army are numerically increasing Moscow’s dominance in the world.
    — By the way, have you noticed that few people in the world know the name of the Chinese secret service GUOANBU? Even though this Chinese secret service monitors all the world’s telecommunications networks, and is spying on the unsuspecting world population through “MADE IN CHINA” devices (of course at Moscow’s command) —

    However, China is completely subordinate to Moscow,..so the biological weapon COVID-19, extremely divided society in the US, election frauds, BLM, Antifa, Marxism in the US, Communism in the world, anti-Americanism, anti-capitalism, international terrorism, international drug trafficking, military trap in Vietnam, in Iraq, and in Afghanistan, etc., etc…that all these evils were invented and planned by evil-minded, extremely-envious, insidious Russians and other Soviets in Moscow.

    1. The Russian Academy of Sciences and its associated bodies appear to be the brain of the larger world communist system (whether or not Marxism is officially acknowledged as the basis for their analysis). The people with the best ideas within a system tend to derive real advantages therefrom; and I think Russia’s superior “play” and position is beginning to bear fruit. Clearly, China does not have the freedom of action that Russia has, and finds itself hamstrung by population problems, food problems, weather problems, corruption problems and an increasingly troubled relationship with neighbors. Not knowing exactly how the relationship between Moscow and Beijing works behind the scenes, I suspect Anatoliy Golitsyn was probably correct in suggesting the existence of a secret Eurasian center where Chinese and Russian representatives continually meet to work on problems and plans together. I received unsolicited testimony about this from a Russian source in South America 17 years ago. Basically, the source was closely related to an Russian policy expert who was working in a secret location near the Chinese-Russian border where a joint Sino-Russian commission was working out the policies and strategies needed to destroy the United States. The source was told to never move to the United States because everyone there was going to be killed when the plan played out. This close relative attempted to defect to France to warn the West, was intercepted and killed. I have no way of verifying this story, but the person who told it was not familiar with my work, as it came to me from a third party who was.

      1. Mr. Nyquist,I’d like to comment on some of your statements here, and ask some questions on the basis of them. You said;

        ”The Russian Academy of Sciences and its associated bodies appear to be the brain of the larger world communist system (whether or not Marxism is officially acknowledged as the basis for their analysis).”

        That is your thesis, let’s let that stand for the moment, so let’s continue;

        ”The people with the best ideas within a system tend to derive real advantages therefrom; and I think Russia’s superior “play” and position is beginning to bear fruit.”

        I would say that while systems can be different, an intelligent and intrepid person can succeed anywhere under any system under the sun,wouldn’t you agree?

        After all, even were one to concede the possibility of such an organization and/or organizations, it is a huge difference-more than semantic-between Academic/Scientific organizations staffed by people who were educated AS Marxist-Leninists and those who ARE Marxist Leninists. There is a distinction. A person can spend decades under a particular system in training and then various kinds of academic, technical, and research work, with an Ideological worldview as a kind of umbrella or narrative framework, only to find that the structures of that ideology have collapsed. That what has succeeded the USSR is a post-ideological society.

        Such a person habitually will indeed think as a Marxist Leninist would for the most part; after all, it would have been part of their formative experience for years if not decades. But I suggest that most of them would make their peace with the Post-Communist, Post-Soviet system. Most. And this is because most people cannot sustain almost any kind of serious long term commitment, even ideological commitments

        What more than a few of them would do in the post-ideological society is;

        1. Analyze what went wrong; did Marxist-Leninism fail? If so, why? Why did the Soviet Union collapse?

        It’s true no doubt that some academic Russian Scientists and Academics, Intellectual elites, have remained open Communists of some kind. Some also no doubt communicate with Communists in other countries, including China, and these analyze what has happened and what the future if any of Communism could be. They would make theories and test them, they would suggest modifications and changes as needed. Factions would develop over disagreements, or rather, might not truly be papered over at all.

        2. The more committed core almost certainly try to suggest a modified ”Soviet Union 2.0”, which would not be a reboot of the earlier society but an attempt to fulfill some of it’s promises without being burdened by Marxist-Leninist dogmas. They would admit mistakes, take insights from thinkers that are non-communists, etc… They would probably be nationalist instead of internationalist, among other modifications.

        Such a Neo-Soviet movement does indeed exist. It’s called the ”Essence of Time” movement of Sergei Kurginyan and other intellectuals;

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Essence_of_Time_(movement)

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergey_Kurginyan

        https://eot.su/

        And their Manifesto;

        http://eot.su/sites/default/files/manifest_eot_eng.pdf

        Any secretive body of dedicated but thoughtful intellectual and academic Communists and Soviet Nationalists is not likely to produce anything of value better or different philosophically than these folks.

  37. Alarm sounded: COVID-shot mandates pose risk to millions

    ‘Serious side effects have been identified … and may cause death’
    Bob Unruh
    Published July 28, 2021

    The chief of an influential physicians organization that represents doctors in a multitude of practices is warning that making COVID-19 vaccinations mandatory could endanger millions.

    The comments come from Dr. Paul Kempen, M.D., who leads the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons.

    He was responding to a call from a coalition of medical organizations, many with far-left agendas, for making shots of experimental vaccines mandatory for health workers.

    “As we move towards full FDA approval of the currently available vaccines, all health care workers should get vaccinated for their own health, and to protect their colleagues, families, residents of long-term care facilities and patients,” said the statement signed by the American Medical Association, American Pharmacists Association, American Psychiatric Association, the American Public Health Association and dozens of others.

    But Kempen pointed out, “As of mid-July, 30 million people have recovered from COVID-19 in the U.S. and have natural immunity. Vaccination of these persons confers only risk with little to no benefit, yet these mandates do not exempt them.”

    He said, “Serious side effects have been identified, including paralysis and inflammation of the heart muscle, which may not resolve and may cause death.”

    Then, too, he noted, “As variants multiply, ‘booster’ shots may be required, with increasing risk of allergic phenomena.”

    A statement from the AAPS noted some of the other threats that mandatory vaccinations pose.

    One is that although about half of the U.S. population has gotten the injections, COVID has been “proliferating, and hospitalizations and deaths are increasing, not diminishing as one would expect in an effective vaccination campaign. Both vaccinated and unvaccinated persons are succumbing.”

    Further, the group warned, “Long-term effects of these novel, genetically engineered products cannot possibly be known at this point. These could include autoimmune disorders, antibody-enhanced disease, infertility, cancer, or birth defects.”

    The statement continued, “Moreover, the benefit to the public in this instance is purely hypothetical. Uninfected persons cannot transmit infection just because they are unvaccinated. Vaccinated persons can still infect others. Many medical workers already have natural immunity, and mandated shots impose risks without little or no benefit, yet there is no provision to exempt them.”

    Widespread requirements for experimental treatments, AAPS explained, “would not be approved by an Institutional Review Board on both ethical and scientific grounds: no consent; no disclosure of the experimenters’ conflicts of interest; no control group; no follow-up of subjects for COVID status, immune parameters, or adverse effects; no provision for medical care of the subjects; and no criteria for stopping the experiment if subjects are being harmed.”

    A better course would include early treatment options, AAPS said.

    The AMA-endorsed statement claimed the vaccines are effective, but admitted there’s largely a distrust of such claims.

    “We recognize the historical mistrust of health care institutions, including among many in our own health care workforce. We must continue to address workers’ concerns, engage with marginalized populations, and work with trusted messengers to improve vaccine acceptance.”

    The statement offered no option for not submitting to its demands.

    “As the health care community leads the way in requiring vaccines for our employees, we hope all other employers across the country will follow our lead and implement effective policies to encourage vaccination,” the medical organizations led by the AMA said.

    The AAPS, however, pointed that all people have a right to liberty, “which they do not forfeit when they serve the sick or the disabled.”

    And the group pointed out that the long-term impacts of the “novel, genetically engineered products” “cannot possibly be known at this point.”

    Negative results could include, it said, autoimmune disorders, anti-body-enhanced disease, infertility, cancer, and birth defects.

    https://www.wnd.com/2021/07/alarm-sounded-covid-shot-mandates-pose-risk-millions/

    1. It’s very convenient how these potential long-term negative effects of the vaccine could never materialize in mass populations, but you’ll still pat yourself on the back for being afraid of it.

      1. We have no idea what will happen, long term. But I can say, the whole idea of making guinea pigs out of hundreds of millions of people is — on its face — quite mad.

      2. Exactly why it’s extremely unlikely. What will most likely happen long term is nothing like what you believe, with all the wars and coming misery. Speculating and theorizing and making epic mysteries out of everything does absolutely nothing to inform people in a valuable way. It merely piques at curiosity and fantasy. Your audience is just so varied and educationally sorted that meandering conversations can continue endlessly, allowing everyone to tell their story, however slanted they may be. It’s a Fear Fest and you’re the main attraction. Obviously you value the position.

      3. Obviously, coming from the left, you want to force-fit me into your preset worldview. But you have not been a careful reader. Your idea of what I am doing has no connection to what I actually do. That I am actually trying to understand the world, completely escapes your notice. That I am not some rigid ideologue, escapes your notice. That I am interested in the truth, escapes your notice. That I am honest, in any sense, you disallow. Do you have any idea how unpleasant, how frustrating, how difficult it is to work through problems that 99 out of 100 readers have no patience for? And lacking patience, they fail to understand. So then, my position is that of being misunderstood. You are my proof, alleging I want only to scare people. Today’s prevailing concepts are so corrupt that the simplest thought is now a struggle. Why would I value such a position? I loathe my position. Its value is dubious. So you taunt me, saying that my analysis of what is coming is wrong. I have already lived a long time. Although the country has not been physically destroyed we can all see the progress which the forces of destruction have made. But, of course, you are a blind person. Your concepts make you blind. That is why you are incapable of knowing anything of significance. What should I do for you? Tell you to put the Republic under your pillow so the LGBT fairy can transform it into a utopia in the morning? Our destroyer is already inside the walls. For you, this destroyer is invisible. Perhaps you will twist everything in a way that blames me for what follows. But as I have explained to Mr. Malins, I am not able to influence events as you imagine. As I have said before, my words are meant for people who come after. However great the effort, my words here cannot reach you. So, I am not actually writing to you, as every word goes right past you.

      4. @Jeff Nyquist
        Jeff, this touches one question I’ve been meaning to ask you: Do you think that a vaccine mandate and a Green Pass system for everything in life (groceries, all forms of employment…etc.) will eventually work, or will it backfire into a revolt? It seems like these apartheid-like measures are meant to provoke the West into self-destructing so that Russia and China will have weaker opponents.

      5. It is difficult to say how people will react. As the example of South Africa shows, people have this uncanny capacity for self-deception. We give in to illusions and false promises until our country is burning down around us and all the stores are looted. South Africa is now pushed to the wall. What is next? Chinese troops? As I continue to learn about the “vaccines,” I see a twofold weapon at work. I am more and more convinced we are in the end game. Human beings must not take that shot until a rational reason is given, and until we can verify what is in those shots and how these Nano-particles actually work. One thing is certain: the vaccine does not immunize people from covid. It is ineffective. So why is it being pushed so hard? — ?!

      6. Why does the FDA have stringent regulations regarding the testing of new drugs and treatments? Calling me a fraidy cat won’t break my bones. Why don’t you go play tidily winks out in the middle of the highway; are you afraid?

      7. I think he is very very scared. He believes evil right wing meanies are heating a stew pot for him. Oh! I just love lefties, but I could never eat a whole one! A touch of salt and garlic — such flavor! Yum.

      8. It’s perhaps poetic justice that the useful idiots are the first to be axed. The civil servants who place the most stringent infringements on the public so dutifully, are rewarded for their loyalty by being ordered to be vaccinated. They fail to realize that their loyalty is seen as weakness, and that their support is not valued. What is desired by the tyrants is obedience.

        Hitler eliminated all factions who differed the slightest from his view. After the Night Of Long Knives, when he massacred the Brown Shirts, there was no further check on his power.

        Remember the poem entitled, “First They Came”?

        First they came for the Communists
        And I did not speak out
        Because I was not a Communist

        Then they came for the Socialists
        And I did not speak out
        Because I was not a Socialist

        Then they came for the trade unionists
        And I did not speak out
        Because I was not a trade unionist

        Then they came for the Jews
        And I did not speak out
        Because I was not a Jew

        Then they came for me
        And there was no one left
        To speak out for me

      9. Is it the Communists making everybody wear useless masks, like everyone wears in China? I don’t see any significant difference between, Neocons, Progressives, Communists, Fascists, Robber Barons, or the Emperor’s New Cloths. President Trump, once ran for President as a Limousine Liberal, before hijacking the Tea Party. The Democrats and Republicans are two tails of the same double headed wooden nickel. Even Rand Paul suspiciously and invariably, stumbles at the finish line. The World is being suckered into a New World Order. The only contest is to see who runs it.

      10. Let’s not get too simplistic. The universe is filled with different kinds of things. They are not all the same. Lumping them all together appeals to our intellectual laziness. Better to resist that.

      11. No, your words aren’t hard to understand. You reiterate them day after day and anyone reading them knows almost immediately where you stand. You’re afraid of Communism. You’re afraid of non-binary sexuality. You’re afraid of an objectively educated population that has outgrown the stranglehold of religious dogma. So you warn people. You warn us against sympathy and compassion for the least fortunate, should it lead to Communism. You’re afraid of embracing sexual liberation, should it lead to bestiality. You are, simply put, afraid of what you do not understand. So you make what you don’t understand into an enemy, which is easy to understand. You will do this until you are gone. There’s nothing special about it, except that it makes progress more miserable for the people living through it.

        So go ahead and write to the future you want to lionize you. It won’t change the fact that every minute spent achieving your posthumous validation is a minute that could have been spent on something else.

      12. Oh, really? You understand my words, do you? Come now! Your reply shows that you are an intellectual incompetent, ill-adapted to the English language. Take your use of the term “non-binary sexuality.” This is an oxymoron (a contradiction in terms). There is no such a thing as non-binary sexuality. One might as well believe in dry water or a square circle. This is not merely an imaginary thing, like a unicorn. It is a logically impossible thing. Just now you have shown yourself to be a Don Quixote, tilting at windmills in a “second reality” that has been constructed for you by kindred fantasists. Let me give you a brief English lesson, as you do not understand the proper use of language regarding personal pronouns. In the English language “sex” is defined by Webster’s International Dictionary (1943) as: “One of the two divisions of organisms formed on the distinction of male and female.” Therefore, to write of “non-binary sexuality” is nonsense. In objective reality, there are only two sexes, two kinds of sexual organs and two sexual functions. There is not a third type of sexual organ or function. There is no third sex. You may assert there is, but then you have departed from the proper use of language, from common sense, and from reality. It is preposterous that I would be afraid of “non-binary sexuality” any more than I would be afraid of a unicorn. Something that does not exist, and cannot exist, does not pose a threat to me or anyone else. I don’t care what madness you have entered into, or what mad conceits you entertain. I do not traffic in them. Furthermore, your idea that I make an enemy of things I do not understand is the very coinage of your perverted brain. I understand you perfectly. You are a madman, obsessed with mad ideas. You have made an enemy of common sense. The rich history, philosophy and wisdom of the past is rejected by you as “nonsense” because you have absorbed the intellectual poison which has now become so fashionable. You live in a second reality, cut off from first reality. At the same time, you have cut yourselves off from your own inner world, its inner truth, and from your own soul. Therefore, you are doubly alienated; and it shows. Your entire existence is predicated on a series of misunderstandings and lies. You actually prefer lies, as most neurotics do. This has got to leave you in a very desperate psychological situation. In principle, you hate existence. Deep down, you feel an inner rage — an urge to destroy. I see this. You cannot hide it from me. For some reason I have come to represent everything you hate, everything you wish to deny: that is, the reality of human nature, the binary realty of sex, the reality of being and consciousness. You lay down this lazy caricature of me, this projection of your own fearful self, to fend off the reality I reflect. You characterize me as being “afraid,” as if I were some kind of cowering, weak, incapable worm. No. I am the one who faces reality. You are the one who hides from reality, like a coward, within your cocoon of illusion. Your attack on my character is a projection, drawn from your own bloated self-pity. You say I am “afraid” of communists. Do you think I would be openly challenging them if fear was my central motivation? You say that I am afraid of “non-binary sexuality.” Yes! I am afraid of being gored by a unicorn! You say I am afraid of “an objectively educated population that has outgrown the stranglehold of religious dogma.” By this you presume to represent an “objectively educated” humanity. Yet you are the one caught in the stranglehold of religion. Only it is the New Religion: A fanatical faith with rational pretenses. You are, in every sense, a religious dogmatist — the very mirror image of the those you revile. Only your religion has no God, no reverence, no morality, no logic, and no interest in reality. If you think religious people are deluded, try looking at your own delusions. You say I am afraid of “embracing sexual liberation”! What sexual liberation? There is no liberation from the reality of sex, from the obligations it places on man and woman. No! The words “liberation” and “sex” do not attend one another. But there you are again, proving that you are a fantasist, afraid to participate in real sexuality. What you reveal, in your little outburst, is the idea that I have made an enemy where none exists. How richly ironic! That is exactly what you have done. You are incapable of understanding those who attempt to grapple with reality. Your escapist mentality imagines that I am an obstacle to your twisted utopia. Little old me? An obstacle to you? I will be taken out during the first year of mass executions in this country. But somehow, in your mad little brain, I make “progress more miserable for people living through it.” That is why I am on your death list. But when I die, you will not feel any relief at all. Reality will remain what it is. I am simply a messenger, delivering a message about reality. You simply do not want to know about it. You blame me for what is real, for what you cannot escape. I am the fly in your ointment. Or so you think. But again, I am only a messenger whose service you have rebuked. There is nothing I can do for you, except to document your insanity. And finally, I do not write so that the future will lionize me. I write of madmen, like you, for the sake of those who come after — for the sake of those who have suffered the consequences of your madness. They are YOUR real nemeses. I am just a useful witness.

        How about resisting the mask? People are too intimidated to even refuse to wear a mask. Do your employees, Jeff, order people to wear a mask? Or is it you who are just following orders? Who’s giving the order to the minions who are following orders?

        Nearly every country in the World is ordering it’s people to wear a mask. Okay, Islam digs it anyway, but I don’t think Iran is the puppet master here. We keep dismissing the simple fact that a surgical mask does not block a virus; nor is it intended to do so. Even President Trump, scoffed at the mask, but he didn’t prosecute states which infringe upon, Freedom Of Speech.

        Mayors of towns such as Santa Barbara, even exceed Governor Newsum’s dictates. Who to sue first? So many brush fires to have to stamp out. When so many dictators of so many differing ideologies and agendas, all agree on the one same thing, that everybody must wear a mask, what’s the point of splitting hairs?

        Every country in the World has medical doctors. There’s no excuse for even the stupidest dictator not to know that a mask won’t block a virus. Anyone who’s concerned about being sneezed on, is at liberty to wear a mask, and if they think that one’s not enough, they can double up on their own. Sure, the mask blocks snot, but the virus just keeps on flying for miles, and right on through the walls of a house. That’s why the Boy in the Bubble, didn’t just wear a mask. Maybe a Spacesuit would give you half a chance.

        The trials at Nuremburg established the principal of Command Responsibility, whereby superiors and minions are equally culpable.

        Why are we all wearing masks?

      14. Furthermore, just this morning some inconsiderate highly educated student at UCLA, passed me in the hall, and coughed in his mask without covering his where his mouth is, as if he thinks that the mask will block a virus. I say the mask gives people a false sense of security and actually leads to a wider transmission of germs.

      15. Hey Mr. Jeff “Timeless Genius” Nyquist, Sex and Sexuality are 2 very different things. Non-Binary Sexuality is very real and obviously passes high above your head as a concept. But of course you will conflate them to make an angry and defensive point: that you can’t comprehend a reality that doesn’t conform to your extremist beliefs. This is why you are who you are. Why you say what you say. You are a red scare dinosaur who preaches to other frightened dinosaurs at the detriment to the world. Surely you will carry on.

      16. Because you haven’t let reality shift your perspective. You let conspiracy theories mold your perspective. You write all this grandiose stuff about people but you don’t even understand people in the modern sense. People frighten you these days, because you don’t understand them. And frankly you’re not even trying to. You just revel in your hatred of them. Angry dinosaur behavior.

      17. So let me get this right…if a past or present Russian leader says something, it’s absolutely true? Why are you so in love with the idea that Russian government is this mastermind of global domination? As if there is some silent (read Evil) force driving them towards ensuring our demise. You call it Communism, demonizing half the world. You say Islam is destroying Europe, demonizing half the world. Somehow all these awful mass groups of God’s children are responsible for the miseries of the past and present. Oh but then there is America. The great savior of all if there is to be one! Our Evils exist only in the perversions fed to us by Mother Russia. If only we could shed them, we could truly shine as a Christian Nation.

        Do you see the absurdity here? This is why you have such an Anti-Semitic audience. I’m done reading here until September. I’ll be back when nothing geopolitically catastrophic has happened in the “crucial month of August” as you put it.

  39. More Evidence Leaked From China On The Deliberate Release Of COVID-19 By The Chinese Military
    JULY 26, 2021 LEAVE A COMMENT

    By: Col. Lawrence Sellin (Ret.) | CCNS

    The following information was provided by a source inside China who has knowledge of the circumstances and has been vetted.

    COVID-19 was created in a laboratory by the Chinese People’s Liberation Army and fine-tuned as a bioweapon.

    It was specifically designed to be highly contagious, but often asymptomatic, have low lethality, but produce uncontrollable variants and possessing characteristics providing plausible deniability as a bioweapon.

    According to Chinese military doctrine, such bioweapons are used prior to a declaration of war for political or international strategic needs, where the use of which can be denied. The intent (underlined) being:

    “Even if the academic evidence, virological evidence, and animal experiment data could possibly prove (that the virus comes from the lab), we can just deny it, stop (investigation), suppress (scholars), make sure the international organizations and honest people’s work is futile.”

    A fully formed sample of COVID-19 was ready for testing in early 2019, while a parallel vaccine program was underway.

    Scientists from the Wuhan Institute of Virology were chosen to participate in non-human primate (monkeys) transmission testing, simulated coronavirus release and response exercises such as at Wuhan’s Tianhe airport in September 2019 and an actual test release of COVID-19 at the 2019 Military World Games from October 18–27, 2019.

    The source mentioned special health screenings at the Military Games, perhaps as a means of monitoring the results of a small, short-term test release of COVID-19.

    A statement allegedly made by a Chinese People’s Liberation Army officer at the time was “Let the white pigs have some.”

    The release of COVID-19 at the Military World Games was also a test of the longer-term effects of that type of bioweapon because foreign visitors to the Games would carry it back to their own countries and the consequences could be observed.

    Because COVID-19 was designed for plausible deniability, infections could not be easily traced back to China and it could also be attributed to a natural origin.

    The source explained that the subsequent outbreak in Wuhan was entirely unexpected. That is, there was no laboratory leak, but the unintended spread among the Chinese population of Wuhan of a virus for which they had underestimated its transmissibility.

    Beijing learned about the silent spreading of COVID-19 by the beginning of December, but kept it quiet and allowed international flights from Wuhan to continue.

    The source speculated about the COVID-19 test release and why the Wuhan outbreak was then leveraged by the Chinese Communist Party.

    COVID-19 was meant to hit the United States, its allies, and the whole western world because of China’s economic problems and the trade war being conducted by President Trump. The effects of a pandemic might cause Trump to lose the election.

    If the U.S. military was disrupted by COVID-19, further pressure could be applied to Taiwan, perhaps even invasion, and the uprisings in Hong Kong could be suppressed under the guise of public health measures.

    If China escapes responsibility for COVID-19 and its bioweapons program is allowed to continue, there will likely be another, perhaps more deadly, attack.

    1. PM Azinga, is fluent in Chinese, and has a fifteen year body of work on local public access television, in Honolulu. She reads Chinese newspapers, and reported on January, 31st, that China had reported back in November in it’s public newspapers of the virus. President Trump said the Chinese didn’t tell him about it until March, and that he isn’t happy about that. Doesn’t the CIA read Chinese newspapers? Doesn’t the CIA have operatives on the ground in China? Didn’t the CIA tell the President about the virus before China broached the topic with him? Is China supposed to get on the phone first thing and call the US President?

      P.M. Azinga, Vice Chair, of West Honolulu, Republican Party, scooped everyone with her report of the Corona Virus, on her program, Ho’olokahi, for Olelo Television, on January 31st, 2020. She advocates bio-containment, as industry for Hawai.i.

      1. Your statements are a bit confused. Trump was being briefed on the virus throughout January of last year. He did not need to wait until a notice from China March. He was talking directly to Xi about it in January. As for Azinga scooping everyone: my piece saying the virus was a bioweapon appeared in Epoch Times on January 30, 2020— a day before Azinga’s piece — and was posted on this site on that day — https://jrnyquist.blog/2020/01/30/general-chis-nasty-wuhan-soup-a-recipe-for-biowar/ — There are all kinds of strange foreshadowings in November 2019 — also in the Western press, in statements from Fauci and earlier statements from Bill Gates et al. Putin fired his entire government in January. Something was definitely up. Those of us who were watching attentively did not need to read Chinese to see it coming.

        Are you giving Xi the benefit of the doubt? What makes you think that Xi mentioned the virus in January? The public wasn’t told until March. In April, President Trump said that we didn’t know.
        https://youtu.be/MWkLKwnkRAA

      3. Benefit of what doubt? I am just giving you the facts. Trump’s phone call with Xi in January 2020 has been well documented. Even I knew about the virus in mid January. Anyone who was paying close attention knew about it. The Chinese told us the virus was under control. They gaslighted us. Then it spread from China. Go read up on it.

  40. Jeff, not sure if you can comment, Dr Willie Soon from Harvard University was recently interviewed by Alex Newman from the New American, he also warns of the coming Grand Solar Minimum:

    NEW PAPER

    Dr. Willie Soon has produced a new paper that attempts to work out the behavior of the sun over the next 100 years.

    He has done this by first studying how the sun behaved over the last 400 years, and then by extrapolating this cyclic behavior out a century-or-so into the future.

    “We are already in a very weak activity state,” said Dr. Soon, “weaker than the active state of the 1980s/90s.”

    This reduced spell of activity we’re in now started in 2008 and is expected to last until 2050, continues Dr. Soon.

    The next 3 decades will be a “a very interesting time to be living, because we have another 30-years of the possibility of cooling.”

    Soon hopes the IPCC will be honest and won’t be tempted to manipulate their data–as Soon has personally caught and demonstrated them doing in the past. The IPCC charts show only linear warming, explains Soon, whereas the raw thermometer data reveals a clear ebb and flow of cooling and warming in a cyclical fashion.

    “This shows you that they manipulated the data,” says Dr. Soon.

    “Ultimately it’s about the truth, it’s not about whether my predictions comes true or not.”

    We have to keep a close eye on the thermometer data used by the IPCC, stresses Soon, but also the data from the sun.

    PREDICTIONS AND IPCC FOLLIES

    “What we predict is that the next 20-30 years will be cold,” says Dr. Willie Soon.

    “It will be a very interesting thing for the IPCC to confront.”

    Dr. Soon is a firm believer that the demonizing of CO2 is all hype — a scare tactic.

    He says sunlight is the key factor when it comes to Earth’s climate, and that’s why he studies it, intensely.

    “This infrared radiation (CO2 infrared) is purely a reaction of the system to achieve energy balance. When there is a imbalance within the system, the system tries to look for some equilibrium.

    “Infrared is just a reaction.

    “This is why we say the entire climate system is powered (99+%) by the sun’s energy.”

    Rising sea level is another folly.

    “If you really study this carefully, sea level has risen by about 4 inches over the past 100 years,” says Soon.

    “And these people are saying it’s going to rise by 300-400 inches — that’s what they’re proposing as a way to scare people.”

    Dr. Soon admits he struggles with the purpose of all these lies.

    Fear & control is my humble assumption. They could also be one cog in “the Great Reset” machine.

    A COOLING PLANET POSES FAR MORE PROBLEMS THAN A WARMING ONE

    Dr. Willie Soon concludes the interview with one crucial implication.

    “We’ll have a lot more problems if the planet were to cool than were it to warm,” he says.

    It’s easier to cool ourselves in times of warmth, explains Dr. Soon –Bill Gates’ atmospheric chalk dust experiment being one rather dangerous option– but the energy simply isn’t there to heat ourselves if it were to get cold, at least not on a global scale.

    The sun is our source of energy, and if this energy level drops then it will be nigh-on impossible for us human’s to replicate it.

    An ice age, even a little one –such as the Maunder Minimum (1645-1715– produces problems that are much harder to solve than those posed by a warming climate, explains Soon.

    Throughout ecological time, life and biodiversity has thrived during times of warmth, and has struggled during prolonged bouts of cooling.

    For us humans, Soon sees the only solution as being nuclear energy.

    We better start building the nuclear plants now, implies Soon, before the materials required are covered in ice.

    “In that sense there is a race. Humanity is always in a race of some kind.”

    But for some inexplicable reason, nuclear isn’t an option within climate alarmist circles — this is an illogical stance that again nods to an agenda being at play here, and not to an honest force in search of a fix to a genuine real-world issue.

    Nuclear has the potential to ‘solve’ both AGW as well as stave off many of the issues associated with a Little Ice Age.

    Yet it is discarded.

    The ruse is clearer than ever.

    And finally, in a direct message to the propagandized among us, Dr. Soon has this to say: “If you want to face a serious problem, worry about an ice age, never worry about global warming.”

    https://electroverse.net/the-next-30-years-will-be-cold-says-climate-scientist-dr-willie-soon/

      1. I’ll summarize it for you.

        “The next beat of the 179-year solar retrograde cycle is due. The next beat of the 360-year Little Ice Age cycle is due. The next beat of the 1440-year ice-age cycle is due. The next beat of the 11,500-year ice-age cycle is due. The next beat of the 100,000-year ice-age cycle is due . . . and we’re worried about global warming?” R. Felix

        “The ice age ended between 19,300 (Antarctica) and 24,000 years ago (Arctic). The Younger Dryas ended 11,700 years ago. The 8,000–12,000 intervening years between the glacial maximum and the 11.7-kiloyear timeline hides most of the real Holocene interglacial (sea level and temperature rise) and a number of rapid climate change events that caused major species extinctions.”
        Brown, Carlton. Revolution: Ice Age Re-Entry (p. 41). Atitlan Press. Kindle Edition.

        These people forecasting a 30,000 year delay in the next glaciation due to CO2 are insane grifters.
        The fact that their “philosophy” aligns somewhat with the NWO “Build Back Better” Schwab crowd as well as the Communist “World Revolution” should concern us all, especially as they continue to push the “Nuclear Winter” and “Global Warming/Climate Catastrophe” and “Peak Oil” and Population Bomb” and “Limits to Growth” scams.

        I’m still waiting for their obvious conclusion that only a limited “Nuclear Winter” induced by atomic conflict can save us from the “Climate Change” CO2 induced “Global Warming.”
        It is like they could solve the warming, population, capitalism, and North American white supremacy “problems” all at one time with just the proper use of enough MIRVed re-entry vehicles, and of course then, there wouldn’t be any choice but to “Build Back Better” because there wouldn’t be much left.

        Yes, I know, a radical solution to the word’s problems.
        But hey, didn’t some “great leader” say you had to break a few eggs, or pie crusts, or something like that?

  41. Oliver P., I just want to tell you “bravo” for your thinking that China is subordinate to Moscow. I think the same. Actually, GRU and KGB of the USSR built the Chinese intelligence, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and the Chinese PLA during the 50s and trained many (or all) Chinese intelligence officers, politicians and military officers. The same people trained by Russia were running China during the fake Sino-Soviet split and later, until the beginning of the century. It was confirmed by Nevin Gussack.

    1. I disagree. The subordination is a deception because the Chinese believe they are the MOST SUPERIOR RACE as the speech from the Chinese General, which Jeff posted here shows. The Chinese/Mongoloid are using the Russians as they are using America and other “developed” countries to obtain technology and mechanical/engineering advancement.

      The communism ideology was heavily influenced by Chinese/Mongoloid culture, specifically as Christopher Story called it: DIALECTICAL DECEPTION. He said it is derived as a MONGOL CONCEPT, not Eastern European.

      Eastern Europe and in countries where Chinese have recently formed: Vietnam, Laos, Thailand, Taiwan, Singapore, et al., there’s a kind of mentality/culture that is opposite to how the pure Christian or Hindu/Buddhist mind think in connection to the human relationship and the environment.

      It’s interesting to observe it in America. In one town where there is a large Chinese/Mongoloid population, people are rude, greedy, and very much superficial. In another town, there’s a large Indian population, and people as a whole have some manners, respect, and are less superficial.

      In Britain, before the 1970s, there were more Indians than there were Chinese/Mongoloid as immigrants. The British consensus saw the Chinese as barbaric and invaders. And even after the 70s, they deported Chinese students back to China in some British schools because they were caught cheating and breaking immigration laws.

      I find that those who do not understand how the Chinese/Mongoloid mentality works, generally blame Russia because they have been either deceived or brainwashed by fake Chinese romanticism on the telly, i.e. kung fu films, Mulan, etc…

      1. Artemis: your racism can lead you astray. It’s not the genes, but the ideas that determine the actions. Ideas have consequences.

        For thousands of years Chinese religions and philosophies have lacked moral absolutes. Confucius (Confucianism) and Lao Tse (Taoism) both didn’t teach moral absolutes. Buddhist monks were often known for their cruelty as they often denied that there’s truth (per a former Chinese Buddhist that I knew).

        Confucianism as least taught that polished social graces lead to smoother social interactions. But Mao and the Cultural Revolution swept that away, leading to the rudeness of following generations.

        Communism, the latest religion in China, recognizes only raw power. Anything is allowed to get power. It too lacks moral absolutes. The shame for the students that you mentioned is not in that they cheated, but that they got caught.

        Because communism lacks moral absolutes, both Russia and China are moral cesspools. Especially in the sexual realm. In other ways as well.

        India is no better as far as moral absolutes are concerned. But because India apparently has had less social upheaval, personal interactions tend to be more polite. Yet Indians can be just as dishonest, if they think they can get away with it. It’s the ideas, not the genes.

        Bad ideas make all peoples and races bad. That’s why the most important thing we can do is to inculcate good ideas.

        Ideas have consequences.

      2. @R.O. You sound like a commie. Chinese/Mongoliod are factually the MOST RACIST race.

        Chinese/Mongoliod (Vietnamese, Thai/Siamese, Singaporeans, Koreans, et al) BLEACH their skin on a regularly basis. They have contempt and loath darker skin people.

        A brown or black complexion person faces racism from the Chinese on a regularly basis, so don’t tell me I am racist when the racist one is you.

        Many Africans have killed Chinese colonizers as they are destroying resources in Africa and the Chinese treat them like dirt. The godless Chinese/Mongoliod are more brutal and barbaric compared to Europeans. The Chinese/Mongoloid will do anything for materialistic accumulation, including prostitution, pollution, genocide, bribery, etc…

        The CHINESE/MONGOLIOD started this Wuhan Pandemic.

        You don’t fool me.

      3. This is not about race. This is about communism. It is about the CCP snd the communist movement and the corruption of breeds everywhere.

      4. Cheers, Jeff.
        It appears that there is an infiltration of commies here.

        Now a days, they are literally everywhere, and amongst the Americans, where the average uneducated person thinks that Asians look Chinese/Mongoloid when Indians and S. Asians are genetically not related to Chinese/Mongoloid. It would make sense if the state and federal identity categorization separated the Asian category into two or more: Chinese/Mongoloid vs. S. Asians. Certainly, Polynesians do not want to be categorized under the Asian category with Chinese/Mongoloid…

        One must have moral clarity constantly to not be deceived by the commies.
        🙂

    2. With that line of logic, ”China being subordinate to Russia” , all Americans are really controlled by Prussia because their military was trained by Von Steuben during the American Revolutionary War. In other words, paranoid nonsense

  43. ”Anonymous” wrote to J.R. Nyquist that;

    ”No, your words aren’t hard to understand. You reiterate them day after day and anyone reading them knows almost immediately where you stand. You’re afraid of Communism. You’re afraid of non-binary sexuality. You’re afraid of an objectively educated population that has outgrown the stranglehold of religious dogma. So you warn people. You warn us against sympathy and compassion for the least fortunate, should it lead to Communism. You’re afraid of embracing sexual liberation, should it lead to bestiality. You are, simply put, afraid of what you do not understand. So you make what you don’t understand into an enemy, which is easy to understand. You will do this until you are gone. There’s nothing special about it, except that it makes progress more miserable for the people living through it.

    So go ahead and write to the future you want to lionize you. It won’t change the fact that every minute spent achieving your posthumous validation is a minute that could have been spent on something else.”

    You do not and cannot know me or people like me, although I venture to hazard a guess that your more distant ancestors were more like me than like unto you.

    But aside from that, it doesn’t take agreement with Mr. Nyquist on his central thesis, to see that you have embraced abnormality to your own detriment. This in my view is the real and most dire enemy of the West, the rot within. Not China, not Russia, or even Iran.

    Not enough shovels and not enough ice picks for today’s Trotskys’ …. You think that the Nyquists and people of the sort in America stand in the way of the new society you wish to build? Such a person would be an idiot. They stand in the way of people like me (I do not know why!), who have no use for abnormal freaks perverting the society.

      1. Let’s just say, that in my way of thinking there is more peril being with the Western ”Left” more than anything else. I would not walk in their shoes,not even if mine wear out and must be replaced seven times.

      2. The Western left is simply that part of the West that was intellectually sabotaged by Soviet active measures in past decades — and then metastasized. We have your old government to thank for it.

  44. Mr. Nyquist,

    You replied to my comment regarding Russia and China and ”control”;

    ”Great nations are not controlled by other great nations. Not really. Ideas, however, can possess a nation.”

    ”Possess” is an apt word to use, I think. An Great Nation can also be at a stage where it no longer has ideas, and has lost it’s concept of what it is, collectively speaking. It loses one ideational system which is at the very forefront of Modernity and Progress in action,and seeks to either not think and simply make money, or reach back and find again what It once was.

      1. Another instance where the Stagirite was quite correct, at least applied to politics.

  45. Is this any indication that this may be an exercise in preparation for an US invasion? (reminds me of Red Dawn)

    https://then24.com/2021/06/23/chinese-accent-maneuvers-west-2021/

    The concept of the Russian-Chinese operational-strategic exercises “West / Interaction – 2021” is not yet clear, but nevertheless, it is possible to predict a significant coincidence with the scenario of the “West-2021” maneuvers, during which control systems and all types of support are expected to be checked, covert deployment groupings of troops, training by battalion tactical groups (BTG) of non-standard methods of engaging low-flying air targets (attack unmanned aerial vehicles) and combating high-speed armored vehicles. In the course of exclusively defensive Russian-Belarusian exercises, combat aircraft and tanks will be massively used. Similar scenarios of maneuvers are determined by common threats.

    NOTE: I am a new reader of this blog. Very interesting. I have enjoyed reading the essays and comments.

    Anyway, I came across this blog by accident while glancing prepping forums for current news (besides the TV propaganda machine). There are many indicators or signs that Jeff Nyquist and others are right that war is on the very near horizon with China and Russia. The vast majority in the US are divided and unaware, plus we have a very weak President and far left administration. Why waste an opportunity! A side note, I heard on the radio that large invasions have happened after the Olympics. As a result, Germany and Russia gained world notoriety. Perhaps, after the Beijing Olympics in Feb 2022? I don’t think we have a chance in hell with Sleepy Joe as commander in chief. God help us all.

    1. It is very hard to say what their exact timing is. But Russia and China are definitely working together, and they are preparing together. Probably there is a biological attack vector in the works. Hope it is not the mRNA vaccines.

  46. @JRNyquist: Your responses from earlier in the day to “Anonymous” are incredible. At the risk of sounding like a sycophant, your arguments are constructed so skillfully, and the words used are so elegant. I mean this sincerely, however.

      1. Yes. Amazing response, Mr. Nyquist. You hit all the nails on the head. Where I only saw two or three nails, you showed that there were actually many. You drive them all the way in, lol. Awesome job.

      2. Yes, pedaling palatable hate speech is a science Mr. Nyquist has honed to a piercing edge.

      3. You are. You put the existence of humanity into a box that you can understand, which makes you hate millions of those not like you. The hate you have for homo/transsexuals, for “leftists”, for the millions you see as useful idiots, it seethes through your words. When statements like this are made you step back and act like you don’t hate these people, making some convoluted claim to temperance based on your supreme intellect, then continue the hate mongering. Day after day it is like this, it’s amazing you deny it. Until the “country you love” is willing to fit in your little box, you will be preaching our downfall to your pandering audience. This is your modus operandi. This is your formula. You are a hate monger, plain and simple.

      4. Mr. Someone: (Or is it Mr. Nobody?) Is that all you got for me? Just name-calling? If you were a proper troll, you’d have been given a better script. But since you dropped in, I have a question for you. What is the meaning of life?

    1. I agree Janelle. When i read this blog, I spend a lot of time copying segments, comments and re-comments–much wisdom here. I am developing another list-version of “WWIV” key points while they are still available. Kudos Jeff!

    1. Definitely not normal weather. Grand solar minimum produces more clouds and rain overall, though some areas will have drought due to jet stream changes.

      1. Do you think that the rain China is experiencing is enough to stop an attack, or will it expedite it? Can the CCP withstand more natural disasters without collapsing?

      2. The real problem is when whole provinces lose their food production. We do not know what China’s food reserves are, or how much food they can acquire from food exporting countries. It might be a bad idea to attack America — the country that supplies your food. China’s leadership may be weighing this now.

    2. China responded to tariffs by ceasing to buy US soybeans. They need those soybeans, but they cut off their nose to spite their face. Now, they fish in ecological protected US Territory of the Northern Mariana Islands

    “You’re afraid of Communism. You’re afraid of non-binary sexuality. You’re afraid of an objectively educated population that has outgrown the stranglehold of religious dogma. So you warn people.”

    Here is the forerunner of your folly:

    Genesis 3:1

    [1] Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the LORD God had made.He said to the woman, Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?

    [2] And the woman said to the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees in the garden,

    [4] But the serpent said to the woman, You will not surely die.

    [5] For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.

    There is no “progress” without God.

    Non-binary sexualities and other nonsense were invented in Moscow to demoralize, “soften”, and humiliate the West and the Western civilization.

  50. Oliver P., I am not a Russian troll, but a Bulgarian and we the Bulgarians frequently say “bravo”. I simply wanted to greet you for your thinking, that’s it. I agree that Russia is the center of the global destabilization.

    1. Please let everyone know how close the Bulgarian government is to The Kremlin. I think people will be surprised at what you have to say.

    2. Another ANONYMOUS writes absolute nonsense here, I thought it was you. If it’s a different account, I’m sorry. Surely you know the Russian trolls and their tactics to confuse the Americans. Russian Internet agents create duplicate accounts to divert attention from the root of the problem.

      I consider Bulgarians to be very wise Europeans who know how evil and insidious the Russians are.
      If the Americans do not will watch events in Europe (most of the ancestors of today’s Americans come from Europe), then they will never understand the intentions of their greatest enemies – the Russians.
      Europe is at the center of the political struggle and has the most Anti-Communists in the world.

      Americans should visit Google-maps and see what cities in Russia look like. For example, try entering a name in Google-maps: “Vorkuta, Russia”. You will see what the future will look like if Russia dominates the United States.

      1. Oliver P, you are nothing but a monomaniacal Russian hating lunatic,frothing at the mouth with xenophobic hatreds for Russia simply because it exists,and likely have a hatred for Slavs in general. What,are you some Islamic militant? or some kind of Neo Fascist from further West? ”Oliver P” sounds like you honor Revilo P. Oliver, who as Mr. Nyquist knows was a militant atheist, vicious racist and vile anti-semite, for all his education and literary skill. You may fool some here, you do not fool me; you are trying to piggy back on Mr. Nyquist’s work in order to hijack it for your own sick ideology.

      2. Russian Agent VLADIMIR says:
        “Oliver P, you are nothing but a monomaniacal Russian ”

        Russian Agent Vladimir, what are you blabbing about?! I’m not Russian!!! If I was born a Russian, I would shoot myself voluntarily, because there is nothing worse.

        “”Oliver P” sounds like you honor Revilo P. Oliver…”

        Who is Revila P. Oliver? Another KGB agent of the many thousands in the West?

        “…you are trying to piggy back on Mr. Nyquist’s work in order to hijack it for your own sick ideology.”

        I have promoted this blog of Mr. Nyquist a lot on many social networks…But then you began to write lies and manipulations here…

        LOL, you are just an intrusive and lying Russian agent VLADIMIR, who has been upset by my true posts because the more accurate the truth, the more the Russian gets angry and slandered…

      3. Oliver: what you write appears to be ethnic hatred directed toward Russians. You say there is nothing worse than being born Russian. If you were born Russian, you say you would shoot yourself. This is irrational. You are confirming everything Vladimír is saying about you. There are good Russians just as there are good people in America. By writing in this way, you are making an ethnic slur against Russians. I have Russian friends who are fighting against Putin and the communists every day. I have interviewed Russians, and learned from them. If you think this site is about hating Russians. Then you have misunderstood my message.

      4. Jeff, the Russians have been subverting the world for decades. The world finds itself in a swamp of communist lies. The Russians are a really bad nation – Masters of lying and deception. If we want to defend freedom and truth against Communist despotism, we must build on the deeds of real anti-communists, such as Ernest Bevin and his British IRD (Information Research Department), who were destroyed by the Soviets. Only truth will save the world from communistic evil. The Russians and Chinese are controlling the world’s mass media and social networks. And now they wanted to control and infiltrate the last remnants of freedom publishing. That’s why they came to this blog to infiltrate and control it here.

        Jeff, why have so many Russians and Russian trolls write here lately? Why aren’t Americans and Western Europeans here?°

        See what anti-American videos they make in Russia:

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqghNRrTulM

        They broadcast it on their televisions every day. I don’t speak Russian, but the translator translated it for me. Incredible how hateful and lying they are.

        What if saving the West consists (“just!”) of understanding Russian evil and rejecting their daily lying?

  51. I am Bulgarian and I know that the Bulgarian government is ENTIRELY controlled by KGB/FSB. I hate the communist system and I spoke with many people whose relatives were arrested, assassinated or starved to death by the Bulgarian KGB. It’s disgusting to see someone crying while telling a heart-breaking story about his grandfathers. I come from Varna and this city is controlled by a mafia group called TIM. I have a 64 year-old friend who personally knew one of the bosses of TIM called Marin Mitev. He told me that TIM is a product of the Russian GRU. My friend reads the books of Viktor Suvorov – retired GRU officer. I hate the Russian intelligence! And I have a serious reasons to hate it. There aren’t a bigger threats for the world than FSB, SVR and GRU!

    1. You are offering information that is rarely told in the media. Other East European countries are also infiltrated by Russian agents, but Bulgaria is the most thoroughly Russian-controlled country of them all. How, then, could Bulgaria be inside NATO? Is the Western alliance stupid? (Do we dare give an honest answer?)

  52. Oliver P., I just wanted to greet you for your opinion. Nothing else! What are you talking about? I repeat, I am a Bulgarian, not a Russian troll! Bulgaria is tightly controlled by Kremlin and I know that!

    1. Stefan, Oliver P. is a Russian hating lunatic,this goes way beyond politics with him,pay attention to what he says… And to what you said earlier; Brat mi, koito navsyakude kharesva mafiyata?This is all the same kind of propaganda that had Russians and the Bulgarians killing one another in the Great Patriotic War.

  53. Jeff, not sure if you can comment, Adapt2030 (David DuByne) a few hours ago released this video to discuss the 1000 year weather event and the crops that have been lost due to the 1000 year weather event in China:

    1. Interesting. A nod to a basis for Astrology; ”made for signs and for seasons”.

  54. Mr. Nyquist, you said with regards to the degenerate western left;

    ”The Western left is simply that part of the West that was intellectually sabotaged by Soviet active measures in past decades — and then metastasized. We have your old government to thank for it. ”

    Come on Mr. Nyquist, as if to say that there was not a Left in the West concurrently with the Bolshevik episode in 1917 onwards, possessed of a will of it’s own and one or two active brain cells? What about that wonderful human being and darling of the New Left, OSS and CIA Agent Herbert Marcuse? He practically invented the ”New Left”, him and the rest of the ”Frankfort School”, (also heavily involved with the OSS and other Western services) What of the research of Francis Stoner Saunders which showed how the CIA totally infiltrated the intellectual and artistic classes, in order to divert the Western Left in the Arts, producing the steaming piles of crap that passes for ”Art” today? Recall that other darling of the Left, Michel Foucault, was he being run from the East? Alexander Kojeve, sure,for his own reasons.

    I am not defending the Soviet Elites, I have my own problems with them. I am not really defending the modern Russian Elites either; although they are not a woman that I should love them or hate them. What I am concerned with are the Russia-hating Right-Wing freaks that gravitate to you and your theories, seeking to use them as a trojan horse for their own lunatic agendas;

    1. Western Fascists who are Axis fanboys who want to finish up Hitler’s work.

    2. The Evangelical ”Russia is Magog so Russia is God’s enemy crowd”

    3. The Papist ”Russia is God’s enemy because Russia refuses to convert to Papism as per the Fatima prophesy crowd.

    4. Muslim radicals who see Russia as an obstacle in the path of world conquest, same as India, China,and the United States,actually.

    Russia is not where Satan has his throne,not the epicenter of evil, ”Mordor”. We lost over 100 million lives during the 20th century alone, we do not want more loss. We are also climbing out of the experience of the Soviet period, and the mistakes and tragedies of that period will not be repeated. We do not want war again.

    But woe to those who might bring it to our lands.This is why we ceaselessly prepare for it, because of historical experience.

    1. Herbert Marcuse was a communist. Right? And the CIA hired him. Why? Because the CIA was trying to spread communism to Russia in the 1960s — is that your point? So we are a threat, and Russia is always minding its own business. The United States is completely incapable of invading Russia. We have ten active duty divisions. NATO is also incapable. There is not going to be an invasion of Russia. You know that. Our nuclear arsenal is nearing the end of its shelf life. There is no reason for you to be alarmed by the occasional oddball Nazi, since there are no Nazis anywhere near power in the USA or NATO. As for Biblical prophecies: the ignorance here of scriptural history, scholarship, ancient languages, etc., is exasperating. I admit. I will zap any posts on this. I don’t want to know about people’s religious opinions anymore. I’ve read enough religious bigotry and intolerance here on this chat to realize that I should never have started a website at all. But you, Vladimír, seem to be poking and prodding the readers — even mocking them a little. For you, Russia is pure and good. The West is evil. But shouldn’t your discourse be a little more even-handed? The leftist movement in the West, which Moscow used as a reserve of useful idiots under communist influence, was long serviceable to Lenin and Stalin from 1919 to 1954 and beyond. This is a fact. Stalin handpicked the communist leaders here for decades. Later, when Khrushchev apologized for this, the American communist leaders obsequiously fell over themselves to say how Soviet guidance and cash had been all-important to them. Gus Hall said that Russia was not merely the motherland of the Revolution, but that Moscow housed the General Staff of the world communist movement. The leaders of the Communist Party USA were saying this right up until the fall of the Soviet Union. Our left was entirely shaped — and was the longtime creature — of Soviet Russia’s special services. Your country carried that plague — advanced that poison— decade after decade after decade. So I am not putting up with you writing, “come on” to me. I do not know who you are or what your agenda is. I tell you Putin is a communist. If you do not think he is, why are you hanging out here? I really do not understand? I have readers who suspect you are here to make trouble for me. You make all these pro-Russian statements. You do not really comment on my articles. What is this? Are you trying to compromise me? Your country is aligned with China, Cuba, North Korea, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Angola…. All my country’s enemies, if you have not noticed. And communist countries to the bargain. And you are an Orthodox Christian? I am afraid you will have to forgive my countrymen for being a little uncomfortable about your country’s wicked commitments to the most evil and oppressive regimes in the world; but here you are, owning up to none of it, blaming the CIA for Herbert Marcuse!? Why such a large presence here? — because if your leader, Mr. Putin, is working to destroy my country, that might make us enemies whether or not I like you, or I like Russians. And why will you never say anything critical of Russia? I write things critical of my country all the time; but you see, it is MY country and my civilization. When you speak against my country, it may be seen as enemy propaganda. When I do it, it is out of patriotism. But who is clever enough to make a proper distinction? I have freedom to criticize my country and you don’t have freedom to criticize yours. Does everyone see that? You may be an enemy, by a simple order from above; for you have shown yourself an obedient subject of Tsar Vladimír. You come here and make it appear that Marcuse’s Marxist scholarship and theories are a CIA plot. How clever you must be. But it isn’t honest given the larger context. Don’t come here and confuse my readers with this kind of nonsense. This is a game I won’t play. Oh yes, I open a door by having this comment section. I have no idea who or what is going to pop through on me. Are you a sophisticated game-player? Is that what this is? If your country goes to war with mine, which is more and more likely, whose country is going to be invaded? I can tell you. My country will be invaded, not yours. That moron in the White House was put into the U.S. Senate by Armand Hammer — a KGB agent. The people who are taking my country down are working with Moscow. They are not working against Moscow. You think I have no eyes? You think I don’t know what this is? And here you are, turning everything on its head. You know, of course, that Americans are pathetic. That is exactly what you think. Have you come here to play ping-pong with our little brains? — by warning us against attacking your country, as if anyone here could attack it. You brag that your country ceaselessly prepares for war. Why? Because the evil American Nazis are coming for you? You mock me, sir. We are already half disarmed here — and entirely disarmed intellectually. I tell you, truly. Your country is a threat to peace. Not mine. You know this. In our feeble way, we stupidly tired to stop your comrades in Vietnam and Afghanistan and Nicaragua. Now all the dominoes have fallen. There is no need to gloat.

      1. Mr Nyquist, (and by the way, I say ”Mr. Nyquist” because it is thought disrespectful to someone to use too familiar one’s name used by family and friends),you made your reply and I would like to respond to it.

        Firstly, one might note that I do in fact criticize Russia and the Russian Elites; when I mention the over 100 million souls that perished in the 20th century from Russia, and the attendant civilizational disaster, who do you think I lay the responsibility on, ultimately?

        Second, I am not a Communist, that I should ”gloat” or ”mock” or any of these other things. I have went out of my way to insist in fact that I am a creationist and a monarchist, entirely without a link to the atheistic and materialistic ideologies of the modern age.I am so Non-Modern actually, that I can in a sense hardly be thought political at all.

        Third, considering the over 1000 year history of Russia, I do not think in terms of how ”pathetic” those are who in essence seek the destruction of me and mine. Adolf Hitler was once ”pathetic”, until his ideas gained traction at a particular time. And his time has a great relevance to us collectively,still, to this very day. And it informs the political and geopolitical decisions, those who lead have something to think about with a memory that has become institutionalized. I grew up with the memory of the war all around me, I cannot forget even if I wanted to. I also directly remember the nightmare of the Cold War, don’t want to return to that either.

        I do not see the political situation regarding Russia the same as you do, I think that ”the jury is still out” about China though-a Khitai which you and others however fail to see the profound antipathy and unease with which others have dealings with her, her neighbors particularly you can be sure. But China buffers with Japan, so there’s that, should Japan ever become Imperial again. In the West, the problem is even more complex.

        I’m not suggesting moral equivalence, which is a loathsome game to play all around, but I have a hard time with the remnants of those who would relish slitting ”Moskal” throats either remnants which easily found a home in their exile. I of course do not blame even them in a way, but the diabolical clash of arms which was followed by even more diabolical revolution. Even so, I find it difficult to accept that the Left of the Western world, the Left of Marcuse and Adorno and Foucault, has anything to do with the plain working fellow down the street who thinks Socialism wasn’t so bad compared to his troubles today, with utilities and medical bills, or maybe the Great Patriotic War Veteran who finds everything he fought and defended, covered with a layer of excrement and spittle. Are they a Stalin? Or a degenerate like Marcuse?

        I have tried my best to present some truths, maybe too stupid or banal at first glance to people of a different set of ways. Of course I expect misunderstandings. But to visualize some Russian conquest of the Western world, I close my eyes and picture some member of the Oligarchy out there and can only picture some absurd and dark joke. America won’t be invaded in the next few decades, in the coming years, Russia will. It’s almost a historical law. Indeed, I think that you and I shall live to see it ourselves.

      2. Perhaps we are talking past each other. I have never suggested an attack on Russia or China; but only defense. Maintaining the balance of power is the best way. When the balance of power fails, all nations will suffer. In recent decades the United States went to war in response to attacks and out of stupidity, not malice. I believe Russia and China are capable of bolder moves. Evidently, this truth is one you cannot see (or are told to avoid). If the West had been wicked and imperialist, as you were raised to believe, then we would have wiped out the communist bloc when the chance presented itself between 1945 and 1955. We simply do not have the desire or the disposition. And now we are about to see what Russia and China will do when America staggers under future blows.

      3. Jeff Nyquist: you have much more patience than I—I would have kicked Vladimir off this list long ago. I wonder if “Vladimir” is a handle for a team of disinformation specialists who attempt to infiltrate groups like this and spread disinformation.

        Vladimir’s list of present enemies of Russia are laughable.

        1. “Western Fascists who are Axis fanboys who want to finish up Hitler’s work.”

        I know you disagree with me on this, but I’ve seen evidence that Hitler and his people were followers of Karl Marx. They lied to the public. Privately, according to an interview I read in the 1970s from someone who had worked in Hitler’s headquarters, they thought they had achieved Marx’ “dictatorship of the proletariat” without the destructive civil war as predicted by Marx. They inherited a Germany who thought that their people were the highest evolved race and therefore had already practiced genocide against “lesser evolved people” in their colony in Namibia. Hitler and his people used that racism. Basically, Hitler was in competition with Stalin for leadership in the Socialist International. When Hitler realized that Stalin had double-crossed him, he then launched Operation Barbarossa to try to end the threat from the east. His troops found and destroyed more Russian tanks that Stalin had amassed for his conquest of Germany and western Europe than possessed by the rest of the world combined, including Germany.

        Today the country that is most like Fascist Germany and Italy is CCP China. Even Russia has adopted some Fascist practices.

        Today, like in Stalin’s day, Russia has amassed thousands of tanks stationed near western Europe. Western Europe has largely and unilaterally disarmed, therefore poses no existential threat to Russia..

        2. “The Evangelical ”Russia is Magog so Russia is God’s enemy crowd” ”

        What a joke! How many armies do they command?

        3. “The Papist ”Russia is God’s enemy because Russia refuses to convert to Papism as per the Fatima prophesy crowd.”

        The only prophecy I’ve seen from Fatima concerning Russia is that Russia will attack suddenly from the east and cause widespread death and destruction.

        4. “Muslim radicals who see Russia as an obstacle in the path of world conquest, same as India, China,and the United States,actually.”

        Now there is a religion that competes with the religion of Marxist communism, and like communism seeks world wide domination. But right now all they can do militarily is guerrilla warfare therefore are not an existentialist threat to Russia.

        These “threats to Russia” are clearly bogus. These are the types of arguments advanced by dictators as a way to stir up war fever among their populations in preparation for offensive war. That war will be against me and my people. Seeing that “Vladimir” advances these arguments makes me think that he is part of a KGB/FSB disinformation campaign, and why I now refuse to respond to him directly.

        The Russians are partners with those who released a bio-weapon against the West, that they advance arguments like these, that they have banned all foreigners from being in Russia, and that they have amassed thousands of tanks at their western border—they are preparing for war.

  55. Someone named Anon was quoting Churchill a dozen or so comments back and it got me riled up because he makes Churchill sound like a wuss. Churchill hated war but he was not afraid to fight.

    Here is what Churchill said that I think matters now.

    He wrote, “If you will not fight for freedom when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.”

    The Spartans at Thermopylae knew this. The fighting Jews of Masada knew this, when every man, woman and child died rather than submit to tyranny. The Texans who died at the Alamo knew this. The frozen patriots (suffering under small pox) of Valley Forge knew this. Freedom isn’t free. Freedom comes from God. It is HIS blessing for living in obedience to his laws.

    I hope this quote from Churchill inspires you to stand against the totalitarians whoever and wherever they are.

  56. Greyknight, you said to Mr. Nyquist about his handling of our ”Anonymous” Sunflower;

    ”Yes. Amazing response, Mr. Nyquist. You hit all the nails on the head. Where I only saw two or three nails, you showed that there were actually many. You drive them all the way in, lol. Awesome job.”

    It was a good response, what needed to be said. I would have offered a tour of the woods while others maybe a free helicopter ride, but Mr, Nyquist did good.

      1. There is a word I think for such people as Mr. Nyquist answered, a word that isn’t easily translatable into English; ”Bespredel”. It means I guess the kind of people that recognize no laws or limits to anything, even their own identity, recognize no laws. Some are more extreme than others, but I think that they all encourage each other to outdo themselves and each other, to see how far they can go, like a game. Except that not only are they pushing their fellow freakish minded, but also pushing regular people into forced acceptance of their disorders.

  57. Mr Nyquist, I also would like to expand on what I said earlier somewhat. As part of my general worldview, I am not against business arrangements with any and all nations which would trade with mine, even as on a personal and individual level. Live and let live, with no alliances which necessitate hostile actions against another third party or country. But on native lands,this is another story, in my opinion. If economic Autarky is possible, it should be policy. But I don’t express every opinion, no matter where I lived or who I was, I imagine. Do I have an opinion on Biden? I try not to express it. Same with XI or Putin or the King of Saudi Arabia. It isn’t out of fear or of being doxxed or anything negative, it is because I am not a political leader. Much as you will not conform to Mr. Robert Malins wishes for you, I will not lead as much as you will not revolt, and not leading, I will not fully criticize any leader who does. I find many of them interesting in different ways, but I imagine most are quite banal in real life. Maybe ideology is there, but I do not see or feel it, nor do I feel like i’m not feeling it in the same way a fish doesn’t see or feel water. I in fact think we are in an even scarier predicament, that of a post-ideological modern world, where Mammon has all but triumphed everywhere, except in isolated pockets of fanatics-usually Islamic militants. I believe that this is leading to a turn of a cycle, back to pre-modernity. But the degradation of Oligarchy is entered into first.

    I do however believe most firmly in your concepts regarding ”Strategic Deception”; I find it more specifically in an Asiatic and/or Islamic worldview, persons arising out of those civilizational groupings-and they are even combining, in my opinion!

    Oh, have some nations including my own civilization and culture contributed to this monstrous situation? Sure, they probably have. But again it’s more about money,although money and power are connected. Wasn’t the Medici family motto;

    ”Money to make Power. Power to make Money”, or something like that?

    1. Plutocracy is not a very inspiring system. Socialist dictatorship is even less inspiring. All that righteous anger directed against the rich merely ends up degrading the social state. You need ideas and spirituality to make the world more tolerable. You have to bring back the four cardinal virtues. Plutocracy and socialism cannot do this.

      1. I agree that Plutocracy and Socialist Dictatorships are not desirable. An ethical Capitalism is the best as a Socio-Economic System, informed by the traditional Orthodox Christian teachings of the Fathers. I am also of the belief that Monarchy-despite the flaws of individual Monarchs, for they are human-is the best as well, modified by regular legislative representation of the People. You should see Father Dimitri Smirnov on live Russian Television speaking about the fraud of Democracy and the truth of Monarchy;

        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oyZgewfwoVc

        Father Smirnov also campaigns against the LGBT, against Abortion, tells families they need to have many children, tells the country that otherwise they’ll be overrun with Muslims. And he is not alone in this.

  58. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Vladimir is posting full-time on this blog, like it’s his career. And it’s all designed to deflect heat from Russia. If h’es not a remunerated propagandist, he’ll do until one arrives.

    1. Don’t be so thoughtless. I post on here because I find Mr. Nyquist’s work important, even if I do not always agree with him. And as far as ”deflecting heat from Russia”? No, what I am doing is presenting another side of things, so that people understand who didn’t understand before provide some context from a slightly different context. Did you watch the video I just recently posted? How come you did not speak to that? Was it because it did not fit your expectations and prejudices? There is no ”propaganda”, you are welcome to remain willfully ignorant of the reality all you want, just do not be surprised when you are out of touch with what’s happening.

      1. The government in Moscow has made use of Orthodoxy and nationalism to support itself. But this is not proof of sincerity. This is a device to manipulate the Russian people. The very top figures in Russian Orthodoxy are known creatures of the communist secret police. The Russian government has pretended to be capitalist in the past. It has pretended all kinds of things. Do we now view this as sincere? Putin is leading a regime of serial falsification. It would be tragic if the Russian people accepted it as authentic. Surely, they will wake up one day.

  59. Courage, Moderation, Prudence, and Justice are the four classical Aristotelian virtues. I am not speaking for Jeff, just offering this.

    1. The information from here and other sources is very disturbing. But is it true? The Corona panel in Berlin has gathered a growing body of facts pointing to corruption within the CDC, NIH, NIAIH, etc., with an experimental virus being sent to China for further modification some years ago. Any linkages here to the Chinese communist apparatus should alarm us. And there are plenty of linkages. It also appears that Chinese companies have a role in making these experimental vaccines. Referring back to General Chi Haotian’s secret speech about killing 200 million Americans, I begin to see the logic behind what is happening. The justifications used for vaccinating children and people with naturally acquired immunity does not appear. This is not science. This is irrational. How do we explain it? Furthermore, China and Russia are not interested in using any of our “wonderful” vaccines. If the vaccines were not part of an attack they would be stealing them. But they are not interested in our vaccines. These and other facts are suggestive of a vaccine vector biological operation in which psychological operations, subversion and corruption, have opened a path for a mass casualty attack on the West. As I examine the evidence, I find irrational decisions, lies and obfuscation from Western officials who have been compromised by our enemies. I fear that an attack is underway and the vaccine is the weapon. Tell me where I am missing something here.

      1. “Mirror, Mirror…can you explain my error?”

        It is the Chinese High Command that is missing something, in plain view,
        so to speak.

        The Chinese facial appearance is easily recognized as “not of my race”
        by 6 billion people (numbers may vary – during the never ending war.)

        “Shoot on sight any Chinese person, for the next 2,000 years.”

        Such an easily explained social policy.

        They can’t see this because, because … what’s that word again?

        Arrogance.

      2. “As I examine the evidence, I find irrational decisions, lies and obfuscation from Western officials who have been compromised by our enemies. I fear that an attack is underway and the vaccine is the weapon.”

        http://preearth.net/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1184

        Expression of the spike protein (without any other viral proteins) triggers syncytia formation.

        All the currently available Covid vaccines rely on expression of the spike protein to induce an immune response.

        Therefore all the currently available Covid vaccines are potentially dangerous.

        I would be very wary of all Covid vaccines, especially those where the spike protein retains the multibasic cleavage site, and does not have the 2P changes. All vaccines that use the wild-type spike protein should look at incorporating the 2P changes (K986P and V987P). Removal, or mutation, of the multibasic S1/S2 cleavage site is a must. [21][25] We have:

        mutation of the multibasic site completely prevents syncytia formation. [22]

        Moreover, deletion of the multibasic motif resulted in a spike protein that was no longer able to induce syncytium formation even in the presence of trypsin or TMPRSS2. [23]

        Novavax has such a vaccine candidate. [24]

        At this point I would decline the vaccine. I would take a “wait and see” approach. Experimental evidence suggests the vaccines will kill a large number (billions) of your cells. Clinical evidence shows that most will recover from this without much difficulty. However, we also know that the number of adverse events is much, much greater than for the flu-vaccines. Since Covid is not that dangerous to most people, those not at risk should not be vaccinated until a truly safe vaccine is developed.

        A number of medical experts say that the current crop of covid vaccines should not be on the market, at all.

        This is just my two pennies worth. Make of it what you will.

  60. There were two interviews in my last post. Be sure to watch the second one.

  61. Mr. Nyquist, you replied to me that;

    ”The government in Moscow has made use of Orthodoxy and nationalism to support itself. But this is not proof of sincerity.”

    Telling people that they should do something good, like have children, may or may not be sincere, but it is wise advice in any case.

    ”This is a device to manipulate the Russian people.”

    If we were not the way we have always been to a significant degree, there would be no reason to be manipulative for a manipulator, one would have a population like clay in the potter’s hands otherwise. It’s not like Russian Nationalism and Orthodoxy are evil things, quite the contrary. If the Elites are manipulative (and with few exceptions, they have almost always been!) this time, then it speaks more to their fears and weaknesses than to those of the Russian people.

    ”The very top figures in Russian Orthodoxy are known creatures of the communist secret police.”

    This is true, at least of ”official” Russian Orthodoxy. Today in the social sphere they fight against drinking and drugs, encourage large families, fight the perversion agenda. If they have a Non-Orthodox agenda (which some obviously do, with ecumenism and so forth) they are quite careful and try not to anger the laity. The biggest former creatures of the Soviet now are criticized (if they are criticized) for a certain worldliness, like the nice watches underneath liturgical vestments, nice cars, etc…. It’s a particular annoyance of mine in fact, paying for candles, ATMs in the churches, etc…

    ”The Russian government has pretended to be capitalist in the past. It has pretended all kinds of things. Do we now view this as sincere? Putin is leading a regime of serial falsification. It would be tragic if the Russian people accepted it as authentic. Surely, they will wake up one day. ”

    The Russian people are awake, as i’ve said we ALWAYS know the bandits and the fools. The best thing a single person can do under any legitimate or illegitimate government is to pray for the rulers and the people, do good in one’s own life, and yield not to any evil, any command to sin. There is a particularly Russian mindset in fact that grinds down any tyranny, renders any would be ”Masters” stupid and senseless, unable to understand or function, to order or be ordered about. Counter-revolution is the opposite of Revolution in every way, it just takes patience. It wore down Sovietism, it is wearing down Post-Sovietism. It is inexorable, it cannot be stopped, and everyone knows it.

      1. Mr. Nyquist, in this case it is not ”going along with deception”, but rather those Elites who are alienated from the good of the people wind up deceiving themselves and fall into their own trap. Pride goes before a fall. There is a very subtle yet simple and profound folk wisdom in action which a foreigner might not see and might likely misinterpret, and this is fine too, as then the people know that it’s working well on the half-foreigner in spirit ”Russians” out there.

        Marx hated Russia because he could suss this wisdom out for himself,sensed it’s power and threat to Marxist style ”Progress” worldwide, most of his acolytes however were quite blind to It. Read an example of what Marx had to say about Russia;

        ”Karl Marx, New York Daily Tribune, August 8, 1853 “Russia is a name usurped by the Muscovites. They are not Slavs, do not belong at all to the Indo-German race, but are des intrus [intruders], who must again he hurled back beyond the Dnieper, etc.” Karl Marx, letter to Friedrich Engels, June 24, 1865.”

        Sound familiar in this day and age?

        I’m sure that this post will not satisfy, what I’m talking about goes beyond the Greco-Roman and Western Philosophers and their ”Phronesis.”, I understand that. But It is action, not talk.

    1. Vladimir, when I first started reading your comments, I thought you were probably a Russian who truly loved your people, and the good parts of your history, even to a fault. And I can sympathize with that. I thought you were probably like a friend of mine whose father used to tell him all kinds of outrageous lies about himself, when we were growing up. He loved and respected his dad so much, that he not only focused on his dad’s good qualities, but also believed his lies and told them to me and other buddies as truth. We smiled and never said anything to this friend when he would repeat his dad’s lies, because we knew he loved and respected his dad, and was blind to his faults.

      But, I see on these last few comments between you and Nyquist, and your responses to this article, that you really do undermine the majority of what he says.

      His articles are well documented, citing many sources, and you rebut him a lot of times with just your opinions, or a link or two to something, or referring to a variety of philosophers or your take on their philosophies. But no deeply researched, and well thought ought leads and facts; and definitely nothing thoroughly cited.

      That does come across as arrogant, though when you are not contradicting what he says about Russian communists you seem humble.

      I regret that it took me awhile to see this, but I must say, that I dont trust you to be the upright person I hoped/thought you were.

      Truly, I think you do this site a disservice.

      As Nyquist said, he tells you Putin is a Communist. You dont believe it, so why hang around?

  62. Jeff. thanks for writing the article. What I find interesting about this is the similar type of connectivity between the Hitler regime and thru the auspices of the Islamic Mufti in Jerusalem. Indeed, Islam was a formidable and potent weapon steered against the European Jewish people. In fact some of the worst anti-jewish barbarism and murders occured in Eastern Euro enclaves by eager radical Muslim populations drafted into the Nazi cause (Red Arrow?). Even after Germany lost, the Islamic fascist movement birthed and primed by the Nazis continued on in their acts against the fledgling Jewish state in Palestine. And now the Russians are waging war against Christian Euro nations today. Islamics seem to be both really useful and expendable.

  63. I stopped reading Vladimir’s posts weeks ago. In fact, I have almost stopped reading this blog, because it has been taken over by Vladimir. He steers the direction of all discussion now, and rarely is anything talked about anymore that I am interested in. Reading the comment section here used to be a treat for me every day. Now I only stop by once a week, and then only to skim through Jeff’s own comments and leave.

    I’m a former schoolteacher. When one student starts to dominate the class discussion, the teacher intervenes and puts a quash on it. But nothing stops Vladimir, who just takes over the blog. I didn’t come here to read Vladimir’s ideas. I came here to read Jeff’s, and those of a variety of other intelligent people. But the blog is slowly being destroyed by one man whose goal seems to be hear himself talk, if not something more subversive.

      1. If you want an echo chamber, then you are more than welcome to it. It is your blog after all. I offered another perspective, but that is not welcome. Oh well, goodbye.

      2. Yes, farewell.
        In their own way, his comments have been “illuminating.”
        Thanks, Jeff, for giving us just enough of this to be thankful for its absence.

      3. Re Vladimir’s final “contribution”:

        Long live the “imperialist echo chamber”! Long live anti-communism! Long live the counter-revolutionary spirit of Joseph McCarthy, James Angleton, Anatoliy Golitsyn, Christopher Story, Joseph D. Douglass, Jr., J. R, Nyquist, Trevor Loudon, Diana West and all the rest of those rare and precious heroes fighting for the survival of freedom and dignity in the world!

        Solidarity, properly so called, with the unfortunate billions living in the “former” Soviet Union, the People’s Republic of China. and anywhere else in the never-abolished communist world bloc, whom an international organisation of political criminals have been robbing of their livelihoods, prospects, beauty of life, and cultural and religious traditions ever since that infamous year of 1917!

        May the human race return to its old ways of faith and piety and cast those communist demons out, around the world. They have nearly killed any civilisation whatsoever, and they will complete their dirty, genocidal work – if we let them.

        So help us God!

    1. This guy is describing the consequences of the Paris accords. This is all common sense. I see nothing wrong with his presentation. There is nothing new in this presentation. Trying to limit our use of fossil fuels is economic sabotage. We will be destroyed if this continues very long. But everybody knows this, right? Oh, that is, except for our poor brainwashed country.

  69. Very informative article of the Chinese Virus origin:

    Is this another indication that China is prepping for an attack?
    https://www.scmp.com/news/china/military/article/3142249/china-orders-military-forge-stronger-ties-public

    ————–

    The Chinese in disguise (something Mr. Nyquist has brought up in several comments):

    “China has set technical standards for shipbuilding, including design, so that [commercial] merchant vessels can be used by the military.”

    https://news.usni.org/2021/07/26/chinese-navy-using-commercial-car-ferries-to-launch-amphibious-landing-craft

    1. Very interesting links. The very long report on the virus and vaccines suggests an ongoing Chinese biological attack insofar as several mutations look like newly deployed strains. The method behind the vaccines is questioned as unsafe, with details on why.

  70. Mr. Nyquist, in my area a few years ago, a copper tubing manufacturing mill was built. It is Chinese owned. It is called Golden Dragon Copper. I remember how local politicians courted them. I always felt uneasy about it coming here.

    The really weird thing about it to me, is they have fenced in living quarters on the property where a good number of Chinese workers live. They did hire locals, but have a core group of Chinese.

    I have often wondered just who these Chinese workers are. I’ve had a couple of friends work at the mill, who said the Chinese workers work way more hours than the local people. At least that’s what I heard the first year or so the mill was running.

    I wonder if they could be political prisoners, or even soldiers or saboteurs in waiting.

      1. It appears to be so. Unless they are some kind of political prisoner having to work at the mill. But that doesn’t seem to make sense, because you see them around town sometimes, in shopping center.
