Hanging on the rope we sold to communists?
Former National Security Agency counterintelligence officer warns the West
Joel Kotkin wrote an article for Spiked.com asking the question we raise on and on since the start of our program… “Is the West ready for World War 3?” He argues that the industry and energy security issues are key here. And according to him… We got a list of security problems to solve. And no, green deal, zero emission ideology are not the answers:
Free-market dogmatists have played a part in the deindustrialisation of the West as well. Consultants and investors pushed businesses to look offshore for virtually every critical production input. Between 2004 and 2017, the US share of world manufacturing shrank from 15 per cent to 10 per cent. Our reliance on Chinese inputs doubled. The trade deficit with China, according to the Economic Policy Institute, has cost as many as 3.7million American jobs since 2000. Overall, the US and the EU have seen their share of value-added manufacturing drop from 65 per cent in the 1960s to barely half that today
And that brings us to the point that:
Our enemies are attacking on several fronts – the Russians pushing against Ukraine, the Arabs against the West’s Israeli outpost, while China prepares to take over Taiwan. The West is pitifully ill-equipped to meet these challenges. A recent study by Cynthia Cook of the Centre for Strategic and International Studies found that even before the Hamas attack, the need to supply Ukraine with weapons ‘triggered concerns as to whether there are sufficient residual inventories for training and to execute war plans’.
So are we ready? Are we prepared? Here’s our latest episode with John Schindler
:Your thought? Is the ideological madness of net zero making us vulnerable? Can we challenge the threats being deindustrialised? Do You agree with that? Are we selling our enemies the rope they will hang us on as famous line by Lenin goes?
Let us know - we rollin’
Are we selling our enemies the rope they will hang us on as famous line by Lenin goes?
Yes.
How much monetary aid has Russia ever given to it's "friends"???
Compared with US aid?
Oh? So what is Russia buying it's corrupt totalitarian "friends" with?
Protection. A "veto" which doesn't exist.
And how can Russia manage to commit terrorist acts and genocide, and poison the world with disinformation with impunity, for decades, while apparently the entire world, including 143 out of 192 countries which Russia hasn't "bought", can do nothing about it?
The "veto" - which doesn't exist.
Oh? So, how on earth can Russia continue to control the entire world, with a veto which does not exist?
Because the UN bureaucracy, and the "Western powers"are lying to the world (a) that it exists, and (b) that Russia "cannot" be ejected from the UN, without "reforming" the entire UN. While China, India and BRICS look on in admiring bemusement.
Now, why would the Nuke powers be doing that?
- - - - - - -
Now, what would happen if anyone tabled a resolution in the UN General Assembly, which was passed by any simple majority, saying:
" Recalling the principles of the Charter of the United Nations,
Considering that compliance with the Charter of the United Nations is essential both for the protection of the Charter and for the cause that the United Nations must serve under the Charter,
Recognising that "the USSR as a subject of international law and a geopolitical reality no longer exists", as acknowledged and declared by Russia on 8 December 1991, in the Belavezha Accord (confirmed on 21 December 1991 in the Alma Ata Declaration), and accordingly the USSR memberships of the United Nations and all organisations related to it, have lapsed and no longer exist,
Recognising that the entire foundation of Russia's claim that it "is a member" (namely a letter, dated 24 December 1991, from Boris Yeltsin, president of a country which was not even a member of the UN), is without any legal authority, meaningless and of no effect,
Recognising that Russia is not and has never been a member of the United Nations, and it's presence is a violation of the United Nations Charter (Articles 4 and 23),
Decides to expel forthwith the representatives of Russia from the place which they unlawfully occupy at the United Nations and in all the organisations related to it.”
?
- The "west" arms/nuke powers would no longer have a "bad guy" to hide behind. The whole game would be exposed to the entire world.
- China would not dare exercise it's veto contrary to the wishes of the whole world. It is too economically vulnerable to boycott.
- The "western" nuke/arms powers would likewise not dare to exercise any veto against the wishes of the whole world and in violation of the UN Charter's specific directive that the UNSC must carry out it's duties under and in accordance with the Charter (Article 24(2)).
- no need to reform the UN at all. The safeguards are built in.
- no need to add more vetos corrupt totalitarian states to override the will of the countries of the world and completely paralyse the UNSC.
- the UNSC and the world can immediately step in with peacekeepng forces under Chapter VII of the Charter, evict the invasion, and form a buffer zone inside Russia. Probably even also force Russia to surrender its nukes on threat of 100% world boycott.
BUT IT WON'T NEED TO.
- There is no way Russia would stay in Ukraine to be humiliated by the world. They will withdraw.
- and who is Putin going to nuke, if the whole world moves against him? Knowing he would be dead meat if he even tried.
The only time the leaders will “wake up” is when they are hanging by the rope.
