Part one by By Dr. Paul Craig Roberts
A Reuters news report by Robin Emmott and Sabine Siebold shows how devoid the West is of honest, intelligent and responsible journalists and government officials.
First we will examine the dishonesty or incompetence of the reporters and then that of Western government officials.
Emmott and Siebold describe NATO as a “Western defense alliance.” Since the Clinton regime NATO has been an alliance for waging offensive war, a war crime under the Nuremberg rules established by the United States. Under the NATO banner a number of countries have been bombed, invaded, and had their governments overthrown by Washington acting under the cover of NATO.
These destroyed countries posed no threat whatsoever to the countries of the NATO alliance and undertook no aggressive actions against NATO members. How is it possible that Reuters’ reporters and editors are not aware of this?
Why do they call an instrument of Washington’s aggression a “defense alliance”?
Emmott and Siebold report that “Russian aggression” is the reason NATO is deploying 3,000 to 4,000 troops in the Baltic states and Poland. In other words, something that does not exist–Russian aggression toward the Baltics and Poland–is assumed to be a fact that must be countered with military deployments.
The reporters do not question whether this insignificant number of NATO troops constitutes a defense or a provocation. The number of troops would have to be 100 times greater before the force even begins to approach a defensive force. What then is the purpose of the 3,000 or 4,000 NATO troops?
Every informed person knows that there is no need of a defense force against Russia in the Baltics and Poland. Aside from this fact, only an absolute idiot could think that three or four thousand troops constitutes a defense against the Russian Army.
The Reuters reporters raise no question about President Obama’s statement that 1,000 of this insignificant force will be Americans in order “to enhance our forward presence in central and eastern Europe.” Why does the United States need a “forward presence” in central and eastern Europe? What does a US “forward presence” in central and eastern Europe represent except an insane recklessness? One thousand US troops are good for nothing except a provocation.
Emmott and Siebold report with a straight face without laughter or question unverifiable accusations of Russian aggression by White House Deputy National Security Adviser Ben Rhodes, Polish Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski, President Obama, and head of NATO’s military committee, Czech General Petr Pavel.
Gen. Pavel “said Russia was attempting to restore its status as a world power, an effort that included using its military.”
Obama said it is necessary to “keep sanctions on Moscow in place until it fully complies with the ceasefire agreement in Ukraine.”
Waszczykowski said:
“We have to reject any type of wishful thinking with regard to pragmatic cooperation with Russia as long as Russia keeps on invading its neighbors.”
Rhodes threatened Russia with a NATO response to Russia’s “continued aggression.”
These statements are propagandistic. If those who made the statements actually believe them, they are too imbecilic to be trusted with public offices.
Is it possible that the Czech general does not know that Russia has used its military only to repel a Washington-inspired Georgian invasion of South Ossetia and against ISIS in Syria, which the US, UK, and France also claim to be doing? After repelling the Georgian invasion, Russia withdrew its forces. After dealing ISIS a setback in Syria, Russia withdrew and was forced to return by Washington’s resupply of ISIS.
Can the Polish Foreign Minister identify the countries that “Russia keeps on invading”?
Does the President of the United States really not know that Russia is not a party to the ceasefire agreement in Ukraine? This is an agreement between the breakaway republics and the government in Kiev. Washington has done everything possible to discourage Kiev from keeping the agreement Kiev signed.
Can National Security Adviser Rhodes tell us where “continued aggression by Russia” is occurring? What countries are being invaded and overrun?
How can there be so much Russian aggression and no evidence of it?
Recently, President Putin dressed down to their faces the Western media whores who are fanning the flames of World War III by repeating without question Washington’s propagandistic lies. These lies are reckless. They endanger all life on planet Earth.
During my lifetime, American presidents worked to reduce tensions between the two major nuclear powers. JFK worked with Khrushchev to defuse the dangerous situation arising from the placement of US missiles in Turkey and, in response, the placement of Russian missiles in Cuba.
President Nixon brought forth SALT I, the strategic arms limitation treaty, and the ABM Treaty.
President Carter crafted SALT II.
President Reagan negotiated with Gorbachev the end of the Cold War, the most promising achievement of the 20th century.
The Clinton, George W. Bush, and Obama regimes have done everything possible to raise the tensions between nuclear powers to heights beyond those of the most dangerous days of the Cold War.
The evil Clinton regime broke the word of the government of the United States, thereby destroying the honor of the US government, by taking NATO to Russia’s borders.
The evil George W. Bush regime pulled the US out of the ABM Treaty and rewrote US war doctrine in order to elevate nuclear weapons from a retaliatory weapon to a first strike weapon. This insane act put the Russians on notice.
The evil Obama regime intends to place nuclear missiles on Russia’s borders in Poland and Romania and engineered a coup in Ukraine with the intent of depriving Russia of its Black Sea naval base in Crimea, Russia’s only warm water port.

The question Christ poses to all of mankind is, how is it that you do not discern the Sign of The Times.
If any man loves this present dark world run by Satan, including the things in it, the love of Christ is not with that individual.
We are to set our affections or desires on Heavenly Blessings (1 John 2:15; Col 3:2).
The present Spiritual condition of the earth is dismal at best.
Far too many people walk in darkness while pretending to be in the light.
They do not care to know the true state of affairs and basically see what they want to see.
When the majority of your time, treasures and talents are invested in this present evil world, it is impossible to say that you live for Christ. You can’t claim to want to be delivered from evil, while participating in self delusion in order to protect and justify your own selfish desires, which is evil.
God is not partner to those who are apathetic towards iniquity.
Below we list just a snippet of the wickedness that so often is ignored as a result of a carnal mind which is enmity against God.
If you are too fearful to engage in individual thought, you do not discern the Sign of The Times.
Group-think is completely irrational albeit a popular alternative mindset that does provide the deluded person with a false sense of security and community. However it leads to dysfunctional life decisions, as opposing viewpoints are suppressed at all costs. This mental dysfunction is carried out in order to try and justify a desired set of beliefs, no matter how ungrounded they may be.
Wars are controlled by a handful of demonic elites for their own personal gain, at the expense of the rest of this planet, and yet people support the military even though millions are murdered and tortured in the name of freedom, democracy and truth.
If you tolerate a terrorist regime, in order to maintain a materialistic life style at the expense of others, you do not discern the Sign of The Times.
Our so-called civilization is largely populated by unwitting slaves. They have been programmed and brainwashed through television, governments, central bankers, and most learning institutions. These are all controlled by this same demonic elite class. Incredibly their lies are accepted as the truth, and wrong is perceived as right in a world gone mad.
Our food and water supplies are poisoned with deadly additives, pesticides, radiation, chemical contamination and neurotoxins. When you are oblivious to the intentional destruction of this planet, you do not discern the Sign of The Times.
Our currency is fictitious without any real store of value and is diluted to the point that it will soon completely collapse, and become worth less.
When you believe your stocks, bonds and bank account balances represent real wealth, you do not discern the Sign of The Times.
When you ignorantly accept a medical system that robs you while it is killing you, you do not discern the Sign of The Times.
Our medical system kills thousands and maims countless more with deadly drugs. The pharmaceutical whores even tell the users of the life threatening possible side effects including death, and yet their products still are taken by countless thousands.
Multitudes are diagnosed with depression anxiety and the like and are heavily sedated walking around in a zombie like stupor.
Millions take or are forced to take vaccines, most of which are either unnecessary, unproven to be effective, or totally unsafe. Far too often they contain mercury or aluminum adjuvants that are known to be neurotoxins and related to autism and other serious mental disorders.
We have taxation without representation, and massive corruption at every level of government. And because of the 501c3 hoax we are quiet, not wanting to jeopardize our tax write offs.
A textbook example of the blindness and corresponding manipulation of the masses is the 9-11 tragedy. This horrific and obvious murder of innocent citizens ………

Boycotting the ‘race-baiting’ ‘cop-hating’(AP)’left-stream’ Media for years… They are not on Our side and they are the enemy ‘Within!’
I have watched the news, both national and local, since black and white TV, since my age was a single digit.
I haven’t watched national news for about 10 years, and quit watching the rather comedic accidental SNL skit local news shows about a year ago.
With the national news, I simply don’t know who and what to believe.
With the local news, they simply are more interested in diseminating public information that actually reporting news, and what little real news they do report isn’t worth sitting their their rather comedic and incompetent ramblings and slogging through to gleen little bits of essential info.
Especially when I can find out what is REALLY going on in america by reading overseas and alternative news sites.
And instead of listening to some absurd weathergirl wave her arms around and talk about her goddamned cat or whatever and taking 5 minutes to report the weather, I can get it on the net in less than 2 minutes reading time.
Especially now that the news lifts up perverse lifestyles as normal and tends to focus on glorifying the dregs of society.
Perverts are good, normal people are bad. Criminals are good, cops are bad. Criminals from other countries stealing others ID to commit fraud in order to get jobs and drive is good, being a loyal hard working citizen is bad.
It is all so very Orwellian.
I don’t need all of that useless info and garbage in my brain.
…My little town is shrinking…the Mom and Pop businesses are all closed down. Its been real quiet here.
…About the only info on the world’s chaos comes to me through this website. Some would call it ‘isolated’…
…I prefer classic rock music to television, anytime. I spend hours on bible studies each day. Peaceful, satisfying days. family stuff..full time.
…We’re broke most the time, lately. (sure makes you creative in the kitchen)…I think its perfect. Never felt better, about what’s going on. Not gonna worry about much…we’re totally defenseless here, But there is a lot of cattle, in this county.
…I’ll end my rambling here…Just be honest with yourself, and you’ll have a head start…..
“(sure makes you creative in the kitchen)”
When I lived with my auntie in years past she would make something she called “slop.”
Basically, any kind of noodles, a can of Campbell’s tomato soup for sauce, spam cut into little cubes, and a can of corn mixed in with it. Still, to this day, one of my favorite things to make. It’s delicious. I’m glad to know you’ve doing well, Max.
