Based on mainstream media, the Ukraine battle goes effectively and Russia might be solidly defeated. We simply have to provide Ukraine the means they should prevail. Nevertheless, as reported by Medea Benjamin and Nicolas Davies in an April 24, 2023, article in Salon journal,1 based mostly on an “monumental leak of secret paperwork,” “that now seems to be like disinformation.” Who’s stunned?
“President Biden dismissed the leaks as revealing nothing of ‘nice consequence,’” Benjamin and Davies write.2
“What these paperwork reveal, nevertheless, is that the battle goes worse for Ukraine than our political leaders have admitted to us, whereas going badly for Russia too, in order that neither facet is prone to break the stalemate this yr and it will possible result in ‘a protracted battle past 2023,’ as one of many paperwork says.
The publication of those assessments ought to result in renewed requires our authorities to stage with the general public about what it realistically hopes to realize by prolonging the bloodshed, and why it continues to reject the resumption of the promising peace negotiations it blocked in April 2022.
We imagine that blocking these talks was a dreadful mistake … and that present U.S. coverage is compounding that mistake at the price of tens of 1000’s extra Ukrainian lives and the destruction of much more of their nation.”
False Accounting on Each Sides
Based on the leaked paperwork — allegedly obtained and revealed on social media by a 21-year-old Nationwide Guard member in a silly try to impress mates — each the Russians and the Ukrainians have systematically exaggerated enemy casualties whereas lowballing their very own.
Not surprisingly, the U.S. has publicly promoted the concept that Russia has suffered larger casualties than Ukraine, “intentionally skewing public perceptions to assist the notion that Ukraine can someway win the battle, so long as we simply maintain sending extra weapons,” Salon studies.3
A number of the leaked battle paperwork estimate the loss of life toll on either side of the battle is upward of 100,000, and if you embody the wounded, that quantity could also be as excessive as 350,000.
The paperwork additionally predict Ukraine’s loss of life toll could rise exponentially in Might or June as a result of, by then, Ukraine can have used up the air protection missiles supplied by NATO, which make up 89% of its air protection. At that time, Ukraine will develop into weak “to the complete energy of the Russian air pressure,” Salon studies.
What’s extra, in accordance with one doc,4 9 brigades which might be being educated in Poland, Romania, and Slovenia for a “spring offensive” scheduled for July or August 2023 had solely half the tools wanted and had acquired solely 15% of the required battle coaching by the top of February.
A second doc claimed the spring offensive was scheduled to start on the finish of April, which didn’t occur. Both method, if the offensive does get launched earlier somewhat than later, that will imply most of the troops may not be absolutely educated by the point they’re deployed. As reported by Benjamin and Davies:5
“The leaked paperwork conclude that ‘enduring Ukrainian deficiencies in coaching and munitions provides most likely will pressure progress and exacerbate casualties through the offensive,’ and that the almost certainly consequence stays solely modest territorial positive factors.”
That mentioned, Russia nonetheless doesn’t have 100% management over Bakhmut regardless of months of preventing, which suggests Russia is combating deficiencies of its personal. Taken collectively, one of many leaked paperwork predicts the battle is “possible heading towards a stalemate” as either side have gotten locked right into a “grinding marketing campaign of attrition.”6
Are We Headed for World Conflict?
One other leaked doc additionally reveals NATO nations, together with the U.Ok. and U.S., have despatched 97 particular forces to Ukraine. That is along with the CIA personnel, army trainers and Pentagon contractors despatched beforehand, and the 20,000 troops from the 82nd and one hundred and first Airborne Brigades already deployed to the border of Poland and Ukraine.7,8
Some U.S. Congress members have expressed fear in regards to the ramifications of continued U.S. involvement within the battle. In mid-April 2023, Florida Rep. Matt Gaetz launched a Privileged Decision of Inquiry9,10 to pressure President Biden to reveal the variety of U.S. army personnel in Ukraine and the complete extent of the administration’s plans to help Ukraine militarily. As famous in a Congressional press launch:11
“… the decision directs Secretary of Protection Lloyd Austin to reveal the variety of United States Armed Forces, together with particular operators, deployed to Ukraine with out Congressional authority.
To be able to adjust to the decision, the President and Secretary of Protection should ship the requested paperwork to the Home of Representatives inside 14 days of its adoption …
‘The Biden Administration and different allied nations have been deceptive the world on the state of the battle in Ukraine. There should be whole transparency from this administration to the American folks when they’re playing battle with a nuclear adversary by having particular forces working in Ukraine …
My Privileged Decision of Inquiry will higher inform the Congress and the nation on the true state of our army’s involvement within the battle,’ mentioned Congressman Gaetz.”
Biden Shows Frighteningly Poor Management
Apparently, U.S. intelligence businesses are additionally confused about Biden’s plan, if there may be one. Based on a report by investigative journalist Seymour Hersh, U.S. intelligence sources declare a “whole breakdown of belief” between the White Home and parts of the U.S. intelligence neighborhood:12
“The intelligence officers informed me that ‘there is no such thing as a proof that any senior official within the White Home actually is aware of what’s happening within the 82nd and one hundred and first. Are they there as a part of a NATO train or to serve with NATO fight items if the West decides to have interaction Russians items inside Ukraine?
Are they there to coach or to be a set off? The foundations of engagement say they will’t assault Russians except our boys are getting attacked.’ ‘However the juniors are operating the present right here,’ the official added.
‘There’s no NSC coordination and the U.S. military is on the point of go to battle. There’s no thought whether or not the White Home is aware of what’s happening. Has the president gone to the American folks with an informative broadcast about what’s going on? The one briefings the press and the general public get right now are from White Home spokespeople. ‘This isn’t simply dangerous management. There may be none. Zero.’”
US Taxpayers Bled Dry in Cash Laundering Operation
Biden additionally seems to be fully unconcerned about the truth that the Ukrainian authorities is stealing from U.S. taxpayers. As reported by Hersh, the U.S. is paying for the diesel the Ukrainian military wants.
However, members of the Ukrainian authorities are skimming thousands and thousands of {dollars} within the course of by buying discounted gasoline from Russia by way of entrance corporations arrange in Poland and Czechia. In 2022, CIA analysts estimated the quantity of embezzled funds had already reached $400 million, if no more. Hersh writes:13
“The difficulty of corruption was instantly raised with Zelensky in a gathering final January in Kiev with CIA director William Burns. His message to the Ukrainian president, I used to be informed by an intelligence official with direct data of the assembly, was out of a Fifties mob film.
The senior generals and authorities officers in Kiev had been indignant at what they noticed as Zelensky’s greed … as a result of ‘he was taking a bigger share of the skim cash than was going to the generals.’”
In brief, the Ukraine battle is wanting an increasing number of like a cash laundering operation through which U.S. tax {dollars} are being deliberately stolen for personal enrichment.
‘Breakdown of Belief’ Between White Home and US Intelligence
Biden’s lack of management and his blatant acceptance of the corruption in Ukraine aren’t the one issues undermining belief amongst members of the U.S. intelligence neighborhood. Based on Hersh’s sources, the dearth of political talent proven by Secretary of State Tony Blinken and Nationwide Safety Adviser Jake Sullivan can be inflicting severe issues.
Biden, Blinken and Sullivan “reside in several worlds than the skilled diplomats and army and intelligence officers assigned to the White Home,” Hersh writes.14 Based on one intelligence official:
“They haven’t any expertise, judgment and ethical integrity. They simply inform lies, make up tales. Diplomatic deniability is one thing else.”
Biden’s choice to explode the Nord Stream pipelines with out conferring with the intelligence neighborhood is one other sticking level. “Destroying the Nord Stream pipelines was by no means mentioned, and even identified prematurely, by the [intelligence] neighborhood,” Hersh’s supply informed him.
Biden clearly has no technique for ending the Ukraine battle. On the identical time, intelligence officers warn Hersh that the Nationwide Intelligence Estimate course of has additionally seized up, so the U.S. has no plan for easy methods to reply if China invades Taiwan, for instance.
The Energy of Leaks
In an April 25, 2023, Washington Submit article,15 Daniel Ellsberg, answerable for leaking the Pentagon Papers some 50 years in the past, spoke to journalist Devlin Barrett in regards to the newest disclosure of categorized data.
Ellsberg, now 92 years previous, is dying of pancreatic most cancers. In 1971, whereas working on the Pentagon as a nuclear battle planner,16 he leaked a big cache of secret authorities paperwork exhibiting the U.S. administrations knew full effectively we had been shedding the Vietnam Conflict and stored mendacity to the American public in regards to the state of the battle effort. He sees the identical factor taking place right now. He informed Barrett the battle in Ukraine:
“… feels similar to Vietnam. The battle is stalemated, that appears so apparent now apart from the truth that either side completely deny it. What these new leaks present is what the Pentagon Papers confirmed, that the insiders all know that. They know that they’re preventing a stalemate.”
A Conspiracy to Commit Omnicide
As reported by Counterpunch,17 within the 5 a long time since Ellsberg leaked the Pentagon Papers, he’s been arrested greater than 80 instances for civil disobedience in opposition to battle. In a latest podcast (video above), Ellsberg mentioned how “nuclear battle planners, of which I used to be one,” are conspiring to “commit omnicide, or close to omnicide … the loss of life of everybody.”
“When Daniel Ellsberg leaked the Pentagon Papers in 1971, Henry Kissinger (then President Nixon’s nationwide safety advisor) referred to as him ‘probably the most harmful man in America.’ However these carefully held secrets and techniques of the battle in Vietnam had been much less explosive than the nuclear secrets and techniques that Ellsberg held in his protected,” Counterpunch writes.18
“Then a high strategist for the Protection Division, he had been get together to plans for a nuclear holocaust. After being buried for safekeeping, these paperwork disappeared in a hurricane that actually blew away his secrets and techniques, however that didn’t dampen Ellsberg’s need to share what he knew.
At 92, with thoughts sharp as ever, Ellsberg stays an undisputed skilled on ‘nationwide safety.’ On this uncommon illustrated podcast,19 he shares his unvarnished ideas about the specter of nuclear annihilation and the way it is perhaps defused.
Can we merely ignore the fact of the world’s largest nuclear arsenals on hair-trigger alert — amid escalation of a brand new chilly battle with heightened nuclear risks?
Certainly, the U.S. simply enacted its greatest army price range in historical past, with unprecedented funding in weapons of mass destruction and their deployment. We ignore this impending catastrophe and its impassioned opponent, Daniel Ellsberg, at our personal peril.”
Lies, Lies and Extra Lies
As beforehand detailed in “Lies Surrounding the Ukraine Conflict” and “How This US Lie Will Possible Result in Conflict,” authorities lies, and the media’s complicity, at the moment are threatening the lives of individuals all over the world. Based on the official narrative, the Ukraine battle is the results of an unprovoked and unjustified invasion by Russia, however that’s merely not true.
The actual set off was NATO’s choice to permit Ukraine to hitch. Russia has lengthy been very clear about the truth that it is not going to enable Ukraine to hitch NATO, for the easy incontrovertible fact that it could place a NATO army presence proper on its border. Russia needs Ukraine to stay an unbiased “buffer zone” between itself and NATO nations.
Would the U.S. enable Mexico to kind a army alliance with China and set up Chinese language army at our southern border? That’s extremely unlikely, but that’s what NATO is pursuing in Ukraine.
Since Russia’s entry into Ukraine, the U.S. has completed nothing however push for the escalation of battle, to the purpose that we’re now listening to predictions about nuclear battle. Why would we take such dangers? To take a stand for Ukraine’s “proper” to hitch NATO? What in regards to the existential risk that poses to Russia? Any diplomatic resolution should take the pursuits of each events into consideration. Since NATO is refusing to take action, what alternative does Russia have, actually?
What’s extra, the U.S. has poured billions of tax {dollars} into Ukraine, ostensibly to assist Ukraine “battle for freedom and protect democracy,” but Ukraine has lengthy been deemed one of the corrupt nations on the earth, and nobody is aware of the place all this cash goes. It’s no shock then to seek out that tons of of thousands and thousands of {dollars} have merely been embezzled. But the White Home retains insisting we ship extra. To what finish, precisely?
The White Home additionally denied duty for blowing up the Nord Stream pipeline — which is nothing wanting an assault on NATO allies — even after proof of its culpability got here out.
Based on Hersh, the “why” behind Biden’s choice to explode the pipelines was threefold. First, it could massively affect Russia’s economic system. Second, eliminating Germany’s and Western Europe’s capacity to purchase low-cost gasoline from Russia would pressure them to purchase U.S. gasoline. And third, he feared Europe can be reluctant to provide Ukraine with cash and weapons in the event that they had been reliant on Russian gasoline.
World Conflict — Half 2 of The Nice Reset Plan
All in all, the Biden administration seems hell-bent on escalating the battle in Ukraine. The query is why, when escalation would possible flip right into a nuclear world battle? Is that what they need? And in that case, why?
Russia’s perspective is that it is preventing an existential risk in Ukraine. In the meantime, proof suggests the premise for america’ curiosity in, and protection of, Ukraine is said to it being a beneficial cash laundering hub and, probably, a secret organic weapons manufacturing ally.
Furthermore, let’s not neglect that Biden’s choice to ship U.S. Armed Forces, together with particular forces, to Ukraine occurred with out Congressional oversight or authority.
As People, we can’t be naïve about any of this, seeing the way it’s our lives that might be destroyed had been Russia to ship nuclear missiles our method. Europeans additionally want to go looking their souls to find out whether or not defending Deep State pursuits is absolutely definitely worth the worth.
As reviewed in a earlier article, world battle seems to be Section 2 of The Nice Reset plan, which incorporates the destruction of provide chains, the power sector, meals provide and workforce, to create dependency on authorities, which in flip might be taken over by personal pursuits and central banks by means of the collapse of the worldwide economic system.
Placing an finish to the Ukraine battle may go a great distance towards thwarting that plan. At naked minimal, it could drastically delay the ultimate implementation of The Nice Reset, giving us time to work out different options.
