Big Tech’s Effort to Silence Truth-tellers: Global Research Online Referral Campaign
***
American Politicians like Senators Lindsay Graham and Chuck Schumer are just two of the most hawkish individuals in Washington D.C. who want a war with Russia, China, and Iran and whoever is on their extensive list of enemies until the world is on fire.
These politicians who receive enormous contributions from the arms industry, Multinational Corporate interests, Big Oil, and Israeli lobbying groups and so on are psychotic warmongers who seem not to understand the grave consequences of a world war with rising global powers. One of the Senators, Lindsay Graham, a Republican from South Carolina, you know the tough guy with the biggest mouth who is usually spewing his insanity on the mainstream media networks happens to be one of the loudest cheerleaders for war.
Graham was in the US Air Force and the South Carolina Air National Guard in both active and reservist roles, but not in any fighting capacity, he was not a combat soldier, in fact, he was a lawyer who never saw a battle up-close.
Martha Raddatz of ABC News interviewed Graham in early 2023 on the situation in Ukraine and said that
“We need to do two things quickly, make Russia a state sponsor of terrorism under US law which would make it harder for China to give weapons to Russia and we need to start training Ukrainian pilots on the F-16 now.”
Then a couple of months later, Graham paid a visit to Zelensky and said that “the Russians are dying” and that in terms of US support, it is the “best money we’ve ever spent.” Russia issued an arrest warrant soon after Graham’s reckless statements. One year later, Graham made it to Russia’s list of ‘extremists and terrorists.’
CNN’s recent headline ‘Schumer leads congressional delegation to Ukraine to mark 2-year anniversary of Russian invasion’ said that
“Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is in Ukraine to reiterate US support for the country and ratchet up pressure on House Republicans back home to pass a foreign aid bill that includes further assistance for Ukraine and Israel.”
There were other Senators, all Democrats who went with Schumer to greet Zelensky,
“Jack Reed of Rhode Island, Michael Bennet of Colorado, Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire, traveled with Schumer as part of a congressional delegation to mark the two-year anniversary of the Russian invasion and to meet with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, according to a statement from his office.”
Schumer told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer that if Congress gives more aid to Ukraine, they will win, according to Schumer’s “brilliant” observation,
“He said if we get the aid, if Ukraine gets the aid and we vote for the supplemental package, they will win the war,” Schumer continued “They have the troops, they still have a great plan and they have much better fighting ability than the Russians.”
We can say that Senator Chuck Schumer is either delusional, on serious drugs or just an evil person who wants Russia, Iran, and others on the enemies list to become another Iraq or Libya.
American politicians are psychopathic criminals who believe that the US military can defeat Russia and China in a world war, but the reality is that US and NATO forces lost on the battlefield to less formidable adversaries such as the Taliban in Afghanistan and the resistance fighters in Iraq. Russia, China, and Iran are different, they are not on the same level as Afghanistan or Iraq, they are much stronger militarily.
French President Emmanuel Macron is another delusional European politician. Another tough-guy politician who was never in the military who wants to start a war with Russia. One fact about Macron was that he was a former investment banker for one of the top globalist firms, Rothschild and Co. According to Reuters, “Some 20 European leaders gathered in Paris on Monday to send Russian President Vladimir Putin a message of European resolve on Ukraine and counter the Kremlin’s narrative that Russia is bound to win a war now in its third year.” What Macron said should concern Russia,
“There is no consensus at this stage … to send troops on the ground,” Macron told reporters. “Nothing should be excluded. We will do everything that we must so that Russia does not win.”
Last week, Russian President Vladimir Putin gave a speech to the Federal Assembly in Moscow and warned Western nations of attempting to start a war with Russia. Putin said that
“The West has provoked conflicts in Ukraine, the Middle East, and other regions around the world while consistently propagating falsehoods. Now they have the audacity to say that Russia harbours intentions of attacking Europe. Can you believe it?” Then he spoke about what Western powers are attempting to do when Ukraine loses the war, “and at the same time, they are selecting targets to strike on our territory and contemplating the most efficient means of destruction. Now they have started talking about the possibility of deploying NATO military contingents to Ukraine.”
Putin mentioned what happened in the past when former European empires such as Napolean’s France and Nazi Germany attempted to invade Russia and they were both defeated as a result, “But we remember what happened to those who sent their contingents to the territory of our country once before.” Putin made it clear to Western powers that there is a new Russia that has the capabilities that can cause severe damage to the European continent:
Today, any potential aggressors will face far graver consequences. They must grasp that we also have weapons – yes, they know this, as I have just said – capable of striking targets on their territory. Everything they are inventing now, spooking the world with the threat of a conflict involving nuclear weapons, which potentially means the end of civilisation – don’t they realise this?
The problem is that these are people who have never faced profound adversity; they have no conception of the horrors of war. We – even the younger generation of Russians – have endured such trials during the fight against international terrorism in the Caucasus, and now, in the conflict in Ukraine. But they continue to think of this as a kind of action cartoon
Putin is correct, the Lindsay Grahams and Emmanuel Macrons of the world are delusional politicians who don’t know what it means to be in a real war.
Wars destroy countries, just look at what happened to Iraq, Libya, and Palestine, the US-NATO and Israel created hell on earth for the civilians in those countries who suffered the most, many of them had to leave thus creating refugees in the process.
In the US, there are many stories about veterans who were former soldiers or marines who have experienced real wars end up with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), many have committed suicide or have thoughts of suicide, some get addicted to drugs and alcohol, and the list goes on.
The US and European political establishments who promote war do not know anything about war. The closest thing to war for many of these politicians is watching Hollywood movies that makes war look like a cakewalk. What is wrong with these people?
