The days of World Economic Forum (WEF) co-founder Klaus Schwabmay be numbered.
Pascal Najadi, the son of fellow WEF co-founder Hussain Najadi, is speaking out as a whistleblower against the current top dog at the globalist foundation, accusing him and other leaders of “crimes against humanity.”
Najadi says the crimes of Schwab and his buddies are so great that there needs to be an immediate arrest of both Schwab and other WEF executives such as Bill Gates, as well as the leaders of the World Health Organization (WHO), Big Pharma, and Big Tech.
In partnership with Schwab, Najadi’s father started the WEF back in 1971. He quit a decade later, citing disgust with Schwab’s dystopian vision for the future of non-elite humanity.
Pascal Najadi is also upset that he and his mother were both tricked into getting “vaccinated” for the Wuhan coronavirus (COVID-19), a fake “pandemic” that was aggressively pushed by the WEF and others.
According to Najadi, he and his mother are now dying from the injections, which he says are “poison” that was pushed on the world by the likes of Schwab.
Together with prosecutors, Najadi is pushing towards eventually holding Schwab accountable for unleashing hell on the world. His case is also drawing attention to other globalist bodies like the United Nations (UN) that cooperated in the evil scheme.
Right now, leaders of the WEF, the UN, and WHO maintain diplomatic immunity, meaning they cannot be charged and tried – but Najadi wants that diplomatic immunity revoked, followed by the issuance of arrest warrants.
Najadi is the same guy, by the way, who filed a lawsuit against longstanding Swiss Prime Minister Alain Berset for lying to the public about COVID injections. That suit ultimately led to Berset resigning from his post this past June.
Now, with that success under his belt, Najadi is moving on to the bigger fish at the UN, Gavi, the WEF, and WHO.
According to Najadi, the belly of the beast is Geneva, Switzerland, which he says is ground zero for globalist control over the world. “The devil lives in Geneva,” Najadi is famously quoted as saying.
“Everything evil in the world related to democide unfortunately comes from Geneva,” Najadi is quoted as saying.
“You have WHO [World Health Organization] in Geneva, you have Gavi [Bill Gates’s Vaccine Alliance], then you have the WEF, which my father was a co-founder and left Klaus Schwab out of disgust in the early eighty’s that has diplomatic immunity.”
As a Swiss citizen, Najadi has made a declaration in and of himself that the WEF is no longer eligible for diplomatic immunity. Swiss authorities, he says, need to immediately arrest the ringleaders there for advocating what he describes as a “global humanity injection by a bioweapon,” referring to COVID jabs.
Najadi and his own mother are victims of this bioweapon, he contends, and now it is the responsibility of Swiss authorities to do something about it by bringing to justice every single person who was involved in perpetrating these bioweapons on the world.
“I call on the Swiss authorities and security to arrest those people immediately,” Najadi declared. “Why? The WEF, WHO, Gavi, Big Pharma, Big Tech, and Bill Gates all advocated a global humanity injection by bioweapon injecting nanolipids into 5.7 billion people. And we Swiss are hosting them. That’s terrible.”
“We cannot tolerate any entity that promotes poison to be injected into humanity. But you have done it. I’m the victim. I’m dying from it, and my mother, too. It’s a democide and will be judged. It will be corrected in the name of humanity.”

Who will be responsible for the financial scandal that broke out in Japan?
Japan is being rocked by a serious political scandal that could shake the seemingly unshakable positions of the country’s Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), which has been ruling for a short time throughout the post-war period. There is a scandal on the traditional theme of “power and money” in Japanese media.
Every Japanese adult knows that the LDP is rightfully called the “money bag party.” For its electoral successes are largely explained by large financial injections from big capital of this now third-largest economic power in the world.
As the Japanese know, the “formula” for success in elections is determined by three “bans” — jiban, kamban and boar . Dziban is a constituency where there is a stable electorate that supports the deputy elected over and over again. Kamban is a “sign” of a person running for “servant of the people”, that is, his fame. But the main thing is a boar, namely a briefcase tightly stuffed with yen, or even better, a suitcase. Without such a “boar,” it is almost impossible to win the Japanese elections, because the costs of the election campaign are high. The «boar» of deputies from the ruling party is filled with an association of Japanese large entrepreneurs — Keidanren (Federation of Economic Organizations).
The practice of financing the electoral process, established by the LDP, is forced to extend to the opposition. For example, the Socialist Party, which previously defended the interests of Japanese workers, enjoyed material support from the country’s large trade union associations. This allowed the socialists to seek the election of up to a third of the main lower house of parliament. The Japanese Communist Party, in addition to supporting trade unions, largely filled election funds from income from publishing activities. And the clerical party Komeito gets its deputies into parliament thanks to contributions from adherents of the until recently mass Buddhist organization Soka Gakkai.
The Japanese state provides good financial support for parliamentarians, paying them large salaries and bonuses, providing free travel on Japan’s expensive railway and air transport, providing nonresidents with comfortable accommodation in Tokyo for a nominal fee, and providing numerous other benefits.
Но депутатам всего этого мало, они, ссылаясь на большие затраты на содержание офисов и секретарей, наем помещений для проведения встреч с избирателями и организации других мероприятий, стремятся увеличивать свой «кабан». И, как время от времени выходит наружу, прибегают при этом к незаконным действиям в обход существующего законодательства.
Традиционной формой «сбора пожертвований» по заведённой в Японии практике является проведение в фешенебельных гостиницах так называемых платных приемов. Для посещения таких приемов с фотографированием с известными политиками, произнесения тостов под крики «бандзай» владельцы предприятий и фирм выкладывают за «билет» 20 тысяч иен (по нынешнему курсу 136 долларов). Угощение при этом довольно скудное, можно сказать символическое, ибо накормить несколько тысяч «гостей» дорогостоящими деликатесами устроители приемов не могут. Ведь целью приемов является не потребление яств, а сбор денег, как считалось, на политические нужды фракций ЛДП.
С момента создания Либерально-демократическая партия состоит из нескольких фракций во главе с известными политиками-парламентариями с большим стажем, которые конкурируют между собой за право выдвижения своих членов на пост премьер-министра, министров и руководителей партии. Лидеры фракций и организуют приемы-поборы. При этом каждый член фракции должен распространить, то есть продать установленную «норму» билетов. В зависимости от влиятельности депутата, его стажа «норма» варьируется. Для так называемых молодых депутатов, то есть недавно избранных, она ниже, чем у имеющих широкие связи с бизнесменами ветеранов.
Вскрытая уловка партийных боссов фракций состоит в том, что по негласному сговору собранные сверх установленной «нормы» деньги в обязательные отчеты государственным фискальным органам не включались, а передавались в личное пользование депутатов, становясь так называемыми «ураганэ» – чёрной кассой. В российских СМИ эти «возвращаемые» депутатам деньги названы «откатами», что не совсем точно. Ибо под «откатами» у нас имеется в виду нечто иное.
Серьёзные последствия для не только лидеров фракций, но и ЛПД в целом может вызвать то, что суммы, превышающие установленные квоты, как предполагается, не были отражены в финансовой отчётности и могли использоваться в качестве секретных фондов. Не говоря уже о том, что неприглядные денежные махинации ЛДП уже сейчас серьезно подорвали авторитет в народе ЛДП, и, как отмечают обозреватели, случись всеобщие выборы сейчас, эта партия с упавшим до уровня ниже 30 процентов рейтингом могла бы не получить народный мандат на продолжение правления.
Скандал обрушил доверие народа и к нынешнему председателю ЛДП и премьер-министру Японии Фумио Кисиде, которому, по опросам, не доверяют уже до 70 процентов избирателей. Уже несколько месяцев назад опустившийся ниже опасного для политика уровня поддержки в 30 процентов на фоне скандала продолжает падать. В зависимости от СМИ называются показатели в 26, 24 и даже 21 процент. Солидные политологи заговорили о неизбежной отставке Кисиды. Есть признаки того, что даже некоторые члены его кабинета суетливо стали готовиться к переменам и избранию нового лидера ЛДП. Идут замеры рейтингов потенциальных претендентов на премьерское кресло.
Однако Кисида, пользуясь тем, что очередные парламентские выборы еще нескоро, а распускать нижнюю палату и проводить выборы в столь неблагоприятной для ЛДП обстановке возмущения народа неразумно и опасно, пытается отделаться несущественными полумерами. А именно, он заявил об уходе с поста руководителя своей фракции в ЛДП, которая также замешана в махинациях с собранными на платных приемах средствами, и предложил приостановить практику проведения приемов-поборов.
Просматривая газетные статьи и телепередачи из Японии, становится ясно, что общественное мнение страны не позволит, что называется, спустить возникший скандал на тормозах или «замести сор под ковер». Токийская прокуратура, по данным телеканала TBS, сейчас ведёт расследование по поводу оформления по меньшей мере 100 млн иен (679 тыс. долларов), перечисленных членам крупнейшей в ЛДП фракции ныне покойного экс-премьера Синдзо Абэ.
Тем временем оппозиционная Конституционно-демократическая партия Японии на прениях в бюджетном комитете нижней палаты парламента потребовала от премьер-министра Кисиды отставки генерального секретаря кабинета министров – «правой руки» премьера Хирокадзу Мацуно и министра экономики, торговли и промышленности Ясутоси Нисимуры из-за подозрений в получении «откатов».
Кисида отказался удовлетворить требование оппозиции, заявив: «Детальные ответы могут повредить следствию. Поэтому необходимо воздержаться от заявлений. Генеральный секретарь выполняет различные обязанности. По тем вопросам, которые вы задали, необходимо воздержаться от ответа, но в остальном я хочу, чтобы он продолжал выполнять свои обязанности». Между тем в пятницу в СМИ появились сообщения, что Мацуно принимал «откаты» на сумму 10 миллионов иен (69,4 тысячи долларов).
Whether the opposition will take advantage of the crisis in the ruling party in the interests of changing power in the country, whether it will be able to unite and form a united front with its revelations to seriously and permanently discredit the “money bag party” is a big question. One thing is clear that the LDP and the large capital of the country that supports it will not allow radical political changes in the country and, most likely, will simply sacrifice Kishida in order to shift the blame for the unsightly actions of the ruling party onto him and his associates. In any case, the words “Kishida oroshi” – “throwing Kishida overboard the ship” – are increasingly appearing on the pages of Japanese newspapers and magazines…
Die aktuelle Politik von US-Präsident Joe Biden macht dem russischen Präsidenten Wladimir Putin deutlich, dass Washington zu einer nuklearen Konfrontation mit Russland bereit ist. Dies erklärte der ehemalige Geheimdienstoffizier der US-Armee, Scott Ritter.
📝 „Joe Biden hat Putin klar gemacht, dass er den Weg eingeschlagen hat, der zu einer nuklearen Konfrontation zwischen den USA und Russland führt“, schrieb Scott Ritter im sozialen Netzwerk X. Er betonte, dass der Amerikaner die kritische Situation lösen müsse Die Öffentlichkeit fordert die Rückkehr von Ex-Präsident Donald Trump für das Amt des Staatsoberhauptes.
Im November warf Trump Biden vor, dass er nicht in der Lage sei, einen umfassenden Dialog mit Mächten wie Russland zu führen, weil er nicht über die notwendigen Grundkenntnisse über Atomwaffen verfüge.
This film exposes something so nefarious, so evil, so mind-blowing that many will find it hard to believe. Yet it is true. The shocking secrets unveiled by this incredible documentary will shine a blazing light on the criminal entities who have always been hiding behind both the state of Israel and Hamas. This film can deliver a fatal blow to the satanic elites, who want to establish a one world government from Jerusalem, to enslave all of humanity.
Those who feel like it can read the US State Dept’s propaganda for the pair on its website here. Despite Joe’s war in Ukraine having been a disaster for the US and its NATO puppets they try to put the best spin on it they can so that US taxpayers willingly continue to fund it: an example:
“As we accelerate our efforts to enable Ukraine to stand on its own, it’s crucial that the United States and our partners continue to do our respective parts. And that’s why the supplemental that’s currently before Congress is so necessary and so urgent. And there’s a very clear choice before us: Are we going to ensure that Putin’s aggression against Ukraine remains a failure; or will Putin prove that, as he believes, he can outlast us, he can divide us, he cannot only continue to threaten Ukraine but take that aggression elsewhere, including, potentially to countries in NATO?”
Many hold that, on the contrary, Russia took preemptive measures to defend itself against US/NATO military aggression using their puppet regimes, the most egregious of them being that of the crooks ru(i)ning Ukraine.
What about the Biden/Blinken/Netanyahu war in Gaza?
“We’re also both united on behalf of our countries in support of Israel’s right to do everything it possibly can to ensure that October 7th never happens again.”
There is, of course, major debate over whether their war is actually doing that, and that with only about 20% of Gazans being killed so far being Hamas terrorists and the rest Arab civilians, it is a major recruitment call for anti-US/NATO Islamic militants all across the Middle East — rather like the effect that the Bloody Sunday massacre in Derry, Northern Island (see earlier post) had on IRA recruitment in the early 1970s.
On the US anti-China: attitudes:
“We had a chance, as well, to discuss our approach to the People’s Republic of China. We’re aligned on key challenges that we face in the Indo-Pacific. That includes ensuring peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait, as well as standing up to the PRC for its nonmarket practices.”
That seems to say, “well, we don’t actually want a hot war, but we need a cold war as an excuse for a major presence in the region.”
And on Venezuela versus Guyana:
“Finally, one issue also that we discussed in our meeting is the situation on the border between Venezuela and Guyana. These borders were settled in 1899. I see absolutely no case for unilateral action by Venezuela. It should cease; it is wrong. And I’m delighted by the announcements that have been made by the U.S. today in that regard, and I hope to be having some telephone calls later on with the president of Guyana and others in the region to try and make sure that this very retrograde step that has been taken does not lead any further.”
That is a pretty clear statement that they side with Guyana against the awful communist Venezuela regime, but are Blinken/Biden/Austin going to send aircraft carriers to the Venezuelan coast like they did off Lebanon to back that up?
Potential recruits have figured out that they can get killed regime changing, nation building, and empire maintenance in places that pose no threat to the United States. Who the hell wants to die for Taiwan or Ukraine? From Doug Bandow at archive.is:
The recruiting crisis is hardly a mystery.
The American empire lives. Leading Republicans and Democrats alike support a proxy war in Europe, back murderous conflict in the Middle East, and threaten catastrophic war in Asia. Fervent critics of “isolationism,” like Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, seem determined to defend everyone except Americans. The bulk of military outlays go either to protect prosperous and populous allies that can’t be bothered to defend themselves or to punish states not inclined to follow Washington’s dictates.
There’s always more money for arms, even though the United States is racing toward insolvency. Federal debt owed to the public is roughly 100 percent of GDP, near the record set at the close of World War II. Without dramatic change, the debt ratio will be twice as high by mid-century. Yet the bloated military budget continues to jump skyward.
The bipartisan congressional War Party risks running out of an even more important resource, manpower. Wrote Newsweek’s Alex Phillips: “A majority of American adults would not be willing to serve in the military were the U.S. to enter into a major war, recent polling has found, while public confidence in the armed forces appears to be waning.”
Phillips responded to a Daily Mail poll on whether Americans would volunteer to fight and die if America was invaded. Only 51 percent of 18-to-29-year-olds said they would do so, triggering complaints about America’s feckless youth.

Contradictions:
Volodymyr Zelensky is Jewish. He supports the Nazi Azov Battalion, the two Nazi parties, which have committed countless atrocities against the Jewish community in Ukraine.
He belongs to a Russian-Jewish family. He was brought up as a native Russian speaker, who until recently was not fluent in Ukrainian. And now his government is involved in targeting the Russian speaking population throughout Ukraine.
Michel Chossudovsky, September 10, 2023

Amidst Russia’s impending Ukraine invasion last month [February 2022] while the rest of the world was panicking, there was one man with nerves made of steel who was as stoically calm and nonchalant as a monk meditating amidst an earthquake. Ironically, the Zen monk urging Western policymakers not to exaggerate the Russia invasion threat lest foreign investors and tourists flee the country was none other than the credulous president of Ukraine.
Either President Zelensky was too naïve to understand the consequences of the imminent invasion or he not only had forewarning but in fact had a vital role in orchestrating the Russo-Ukraine War during his three-year presidency in order to accomplish the top-secret mission assigned to him by his mentors in Western intelligence agencies.
Born to Jewish parents in a town in central Ukraine in Jan. 1978, his early life remains shrouded in mystery.
“He grew up as a native Russian speaker”, with virtually no knowledge of Ukrainian.
Volodymyr Zelenskywas groomed by covert CIA operatives in Ukraine since his student life while he was studying law at the Kryvyi Rih National University.
Instead of pursuing a legal career, he chose acting as a profession at the behest of his influential patrons to gain nationwide publicity, particularly through comedy television series “Servant of the People” in which Zelensky “prophetically played” the role of the Ukrainian president.
In fact, his production company Kvartal 95, which produces films, cartoons and television shows, was generously funded by deep pockets of Western security agencies. Comically exposing corruption and sleazy dealings of Ukraine’s politician and oligarch, the series “Servant of the People” aired from 2015 to 2019 and struck a chord with Ukrainian masses.
Western security agencies not only lavishly funded his obscure media organization but also introduced him to a clandestine cabal of illustrious Hollywood producers and directors adept in psychological warfare and public relationing. The media success of “Servant of the People” is attributed as much to the efforts of the employees of Kvartal 95 as to the skill of international media organizations specializing in global opinion-making.
Riding on the wave of media publicity, Zelensky won a landslide presidential election in 2019. Later, his political party, which he “coincidentally” named “Servant of the People,” won an overwhelming victory in a snap legislative election held shortly after his inauguration as president.
Since 2019, after being elected president through questionable methods, Zelensky has surreptitiously been working on a clandestine project to foment a crisis with Russia on a flimsy pretext. Not only did he scornfully rebuff the Russian proposal but he also let Ukraine’s security forces stage joint military exercises and naval drills alongside NATO forces in the Black Sea right under Russia’s nose. His reckless disregard for the suffering of Ukrainian masses and suicidally provoking Russia into an armed confrontation aside, he is merely a pawn in the grand scheme of things.
Despite his Jewish background, he didn’t hesitate in collaborating with Ukraine’s infamous Azov Battalion, officially part of the National Guard of Ukraine, that has been widely acknowledged as a neo-Nazi volunteer paramilitary force connected with foreign white supremacist organizations.
Azov Battalion was initially formed as a volunteer group in May 2014 out of the ultra-nationalist Patriot of Ukraine gang, and the neo-Nazi Social National Assembly (SNA) group. As a battalion, the group fought on the front lines against pro-Russia separatists in Donbas, the eastern region of Ukraine.
A few months after recapturing the strategic port city of Mariupol from the Russia-backed separatists, the unit was officially integrated into the National Guard of Ukraine on November 12, 2014, and exacted high praise from then-President Petro Poroshenko. “These are our best warriors,” he said at an awards ceremony in 2014. “Our best volunteers.”
Biletsky interviewed by Ukrainian TV after a mission near Mariupol. (Licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0)
The unit was led by Andriy Biletsky, who served as the leader of both the Patriot of Ukraine (founded in 2005) and the SNA (founded in 2008). In 2010, Biletsky said Ukraine’s national purpose was to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade … against Semite-led Untermenschen [inferior races].” Biletsky was elected to parliament in 2014. He left Azov as elected officials cannot be in the military or police force. He remained an MP until 2019.
These forces were privately funded by oligarchs – the most known being Igor Kolomoisky, an energy magnate billionaire and then-governor of the Dnipropetrovska region. In addition to Azov, Kolomoisky funded other volunteer battalions such as the Dnipro 1 and Dnipro 2, Aidar and Donbas units.
“Zelensky’s presidential bid in 2019, which saw him win 73% of the vote, was successful on the basis that he was running in order to combat corruption and create peace in the country but, as the leaked documents known as the Pandora Papers revealed, he himself was storing funds in offshore bank accounts. Zelenskyy’s campaign was at the time boosted and bankrolled by Israeli-Ukrainian billionaire Igor Kolomoisky – who was himself accused of stealing $5.5 billion from his own bank.
“Muslims seem to be a major issue for the Azov Battalion. The Islamophobia present not only in Azov, but also in the National Guard of Ukraine, came through strongly on social media as the official National Guard site glorified the Azov Battalion as they dipped their bullets in pig fat. The video was directed at Muslim soldiers from Chechnya who are fighting on the side of Russia and were described as orcs by the National Guard on Twitter.”
In June 2015, both Canada and the United States announced they will not support or train the Azov regiment, citing its neo-Nazi connections. The following year, however, the US lifted the ban under pressure from the Pentagon. In October 2019, 40 members of the US Congress led by Representative Max Rose signed a letter unsuccessfully calling for the US State Department to designate Azov as a “foreign terrorist organization” (FTO).
In Feb. 2019, The Nation Magazine published a detailed think piece: “Neo-Nazis and the Far Right are on the March in Ukraine” [2], elaborating Ukraine’s far-right militant groups’ xenophobic and white supremacist political ideology.
“Then-Speaker of Parliament Andriy Parubiy cofounded and led two neo-Nazi organizations: the Social-National Party of Ukraine (later renamed Svoboda), and Patriot of Ukraine, whose members would eventually form the core of Azov.
“Even more disturbing is the far right’s penetration of law enforcement. Shortly after the Maidan coup in 2014, the US equipped and trained the newly founded National Police, in what was intended to be a hallmark program buttressing Ukrainian democracy. The deputy minister of the Interior—which controls the National Police—is Vadim Troyan, a veteran of Azov and Patriot of Ukraine.
“In 2015, the Ukrainian parliament passed legislation making two WWII paramilitaries—the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army (UPA)—heroes of Ukraine, and made it a criminal offense to deny their heroism. The OUN had collaborated with the Nazis and participated in the Holocaust, while the UPA slaughtered thousands of Jews and 70,000-100,000 Poles on their own volition.”
Notwithstanding, despite “heroically staying” in Kyiv and “valiantly mounting” the public-relationing offensive on the Western media while the city is being surrounded by Russian forces, there is no risk to Zelensky’s personal safety. The Washington Post reported [3] on March 5:
“The possible Russian takeover of Kyiv has prompted a flurry of planning at the State Department, Pentagon and other U.S. agencies in the event that the Zelensky government has to flee the capital or the country itself. ‘We’re doing contingency planning now for every possibility,’ including a scenario in which Zelensky establishes a government-in-exile in Poland, said a U.S. administration official.
“Zelensky, who has called himself Russia’s target No. 1, remains in Kyiv and has assured his citizens he’s not leaving. He has had discussions with U.S. officials about whether he should move west to a safer position in the city of Lviv, closer to the Polish border. Zelensky’s security detail has plans ready to swiftly relocate him and members of his cabinet, a senior Ukrainian official said. ‘So far, he has refused to go.’”
It’s obvious from reading between the lines the security detail of Zelensky not only includes operatives of Ukraine’s domestic security service, the SBU, but also highly skilled special-ops professionals of several Western security agencies, including the formidable CIA and NSA, who would whisk him away across the border to Poland as soon as it becomes clear the capital is about to fall to advancing Russian forces.
In fact, private military contractors in close co-ordination and consultation with covert operators from CIA and Western intelligence agencies are not only training Ukraine’s conscript forces in the use of caches of MANPADS and anti-armor munitions provided by the US, Germany and rest of European nations as a military assistance to Ukraine but are also directing the whole defense strategy of Ukraine by taking active part in combat operations in some of the most hard fought battles against Russia’s security forces north of Kyiv and at Kharkiv and Donbas.
Famous for hosting CIA’s black sites where alleged al-Qaeda operatives were water-boarded and tortured before being sent to Guantanamo Bay in early years of the war on terror, in Poland alone the US military footprint now exceeds 10,000 troops as the majority of 15,000 troops sent to Europe last month went to Poland to join the 4,000 US troops already stationed there. The airfields and training camps in the border regions of Poland have a become a hub for transporting weapons and militants to Lviv in west Ukraine, which then travel to battlefields at Kyiv and in east Ukraine.
The Washington Post report further notes:
“During an official visit, a Ukrainian special operations commander told Rep. Michael Waltz (R-Fla.), Rep. Seth Moulton (D-Mass.) and other lawmakers that they were shifting training and planning to focus on maintaining an armed opposition, relying on insurgent-like tactics.
“Ukrainian officials told the lawmakers that they were frustrated that the United States had not sent Harpoon missiles to target Russian ships and Stinger missiles to attack Russian aircraft, Moulton and Waltz said in separate interviews.
“As the Russian military struggles with logistical challenges — including fuel and food shortages — Waltz anticipates that the Ukrainians will repeatedly strike Russian supply lines. To do that, they need a steady supply of weapons and the ability to set improvised explosive devices, he said. ‘Those supply lines are going to be very, very vulnerable, and that’s where you really literally starve the Russian army.’
“‘You can’t ship them to Ukraine at the last minute and expect some national guardsman to pick up a Stinger and shoot down an aircraft,’ he said. Continuing a resistance campaign will require continued clandestine shipments of small arms, ammunition, explosives and even cold-weather gear. ‘Think about the kinds of things that would be used by saboteurs as opposed to an army repelling a frontal invasion,’ Moulton said.”
Clearly, planning and preparations are well underway to lure Russia into NATO’s “bear trap project,” a term borrowed from the Soviet-Afghan War of the eighties when Western powers used Pakistan’s security forces and generous funding from the oil-rich Gulf States for providing guerrilla warfare training and lethal weaponry to Afghan jihadists to “bleed the security forces” of former Soviet Union in the protracted war.
The impending fall of Kyiv in the face of Russian blitz is a forgone conclusion that even Western policymakers acknowledge that Ukraine’s conscript military and allied irregular militias are simply not a match for Russia’s professional security forces in regular warfare.
The tumultuous last three weeks since Russia’s invasion on Feb. 24 were only the prelude to a long and sordid saga of ensuing war of attrition mounted by myriad heavily armed militant outfits nurtured by Western powers against global and regional adversaries, as happened in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and Syria.
Zelensky is being prepared as a “charismatic savior” to lead a protracted and bloody insurgency against Russian security forces in Ukraine. Although cutting a dashing figure sporting military fatigues and urging compatriots to rise up in arms against “Russian invaders” in sentimental addresses while at the same time pandering to NATO patrons to provide military assistance and impose harshest sanctions on the Kremlin, what exceptional act of valor has Volodymyr Zelensky performed thus far? Has he ever been in the line of fire on the frontlines of the Russo-Ukraine War?
Taking advantage of gullible audience’s innate predilection for hero worship, the mainstream media is projecting Zelensky as a messiah waging a crusade against a rival power that dared to stand up to NATO’s further eastward expansion into Russia’s traditional sphere of influence. The public-relationing rationale of live-broadcasting his hateful and violent speeches to the parliaments of Europe and the United States is as much to give publicity to an expendable stooge as to vilify and internationally isolate an arch-foe on the global stage.
