The Truth Behind The Crisis in Ukraine. US “Covert Manipulation” and
the Resurging Cold War
Global Research, March 08, 2014
The hypocrisy that is part and
parcel of US foreign policy throughout the globe has never been more glaring
and blatant than now being demonstrated in Ukraine. Rather than succumb to the
propaganda-disinformation blitz that it is Russia acting as the bad
guy-oppressor, a slightly deeper examination of recent behind-the-scenes events
in Ukraine would clearly indicate the opposite.
Since November it was the US and
NATO forces in the form of a US State Department cover that launched an all out
assault on the democratically elected Ukraine President Viktor Yanukovych and
his government.
That now infamous statement made
by profanity-carping Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland obscured what
otherwise was a transparently intended plan for the coup that was attained in
February when armed US backed demonstrators and mercenaries began shooting and
killing dozens of Ukrainian citizens in its capitol Kiev that then drove
the Ukraine President fleeing his country to seek refuge in Moscow. While the
Putin and Yanukovych governments are clearly not saints, the US government that
carries on the charade of being so exceptionally virtuous and benevolent is
even more clearly anything but.
What historically used to be the
not so covert actions of the CIA and joint CIA-military operations throughout
the world assassinating and triggering countless government overthrows and
regime changes has undergone a not so hidden transformational shift to a
covertly led, increasing US State Department role that funds and relies on
Non-Government Organizations (NGO’s) with humanitarian window fronts to do its
dirty work, craftily distancing and further obscuring any and all
accountability and culpability in the growing destabilization of nations around
the globe.
This shadowy transformation of US
foreign policy has mirrored the development in recent decades of a slithering
shadow elite that has formed a loose and informal neocon network of various
linked organizations such as think tanks, NGO’s, private corporate sponsors and
lobbyists acting as no bid contractors, university research grants, and various
intertwined government and mainstream media organizations all designed to seal
the cloak of secrecy and deception that permit the oligarchic global cabal to
tighten its control, effectively conceal both its overt and covert misdeeds
along with its enormous money laundering scam operation from all public
scrutiny and accountability.
In recent months five billion
dollars at taxpayers expense were invested and poured into Ukraine to topple
the government to in effect, install and buy the current puppet regime. The
systematically aggressive deployment of a widespread and pervasive strategy to
turn every former outer Soviet nation-state against Moscow has been underway
ever since the breakup of the Soviet Empire in 1991. One by one all the nations
that comprised the former Iron Curtain are now solidly aligned with NATO, the
European Union and the US-Western alliance complete with its ongoing schedule
of anti-missile defense deployments providing the missile shield directly
aimed at Russia along its border. Of course this has Russia reacting with its
own missile shield deployment in what has once again ushered in a renewed arms
race.
The intended US foreign policy in
Eurasia is to cut off Russia from the rest of Europe and all its Central Asian
neighbors, thereby weakening Russia’s geopolitical influence and economic power
in the region. Once the US has Ukraine in its back pocket which of course this
recent coup effectively secures, the gas pipelines that drive Europe’s
dependency on Russia to supply 90% of its natural gas will quickly be
eliminated and instead the oil and gas rich Ukraine can then be “groomed” as
Europe’s new main supplier. So all that protesting since November in Ukraine
calling for closer democratic ties to the West was a mere propagandist ploy
designed to appear as though it was actually another impromptu, so called
populist movement uprising (not unlike the other fake Arab spring neo-con job)
ostensibly demanding more democratic freedom and civil liberties, sadly the
very same rapidly disappearing freedom and liberties since 9/11 that have been
usurped by US government tyranny and oppression in the militarized police state
that has now come to firmly roost here in America.
Like a caged animal that for
years has been backed into the corner and repeatedly prodded, Russia’s
President Putin finally reacted in self-defense to this ever so thinly veiled
US assault on his nation by invading Crimea, the part of Ukraine made up nearly
entirely of fellow ethnic Russians under the guise of protecting his own
people. But in actuality Putin’s so called defiantly offensive move into the
Ukraine was a mere reactive gesture out of desperation directly caused by the
rising US Empire hegemony and its imposing global, across-the-boards military,
geo-political and economic dominance, purposefully designed to severely
undercut and weaken Russia’s regional power and influence. In effect, it was Putin
acting in self-defense in the face of the US’s full frontal assault on his
nation. Yet predictably America is now gleefully leading the charge in its
sanctimonious and self-righteous condemnation to impose immediate sanctions in
order to swiftly punish Russia for its feeble, desperate attempt to defend
itself from the US-led onslaught.
Meanwhile, under the radar it is
the United States that has been the insidious and aggressive attacker of
sovereign nations around the world, not Russia. It is the United States that
has military occupiers waging covert wars in 134 nations around the world, not
Russia. It is the United States that possesses over a thousand active military
installations around the world on every inhabitable continent, not Russia. It
is the United States that has made the world far more armed and dangerous today
than any prior time in human history, supplying near twice as much arms
including weapons of mass destruction to the rest of the world, not its next
distant competitor Russia.
It is the United States that
spends more money on its military than the rest of the world combined, not
Russia. It is the United States that has murdered thirty million human beings
waging nonstop wars around the world ever since World War II, not Russia. In actuality
it is the American Empire that is the true enemy of the world, not Russia.
Psychopathic lies of deception that constantly twist and distort the true
reality are currently being used once again to maliciously demonize the US
Empire’s next biggest foe Russia.
It is the covert manipulation of
the United States that is center stage aggressively pushing the buttons and
pulling the strings behind the Oz-like curtain, ready to be exposed as the true
instigator of the resurging cold war now boiling over. But the pathology of US
lies consistently used to cover up the systematic raping and plundering of this
earth is about to be exposed for all the world to see like never before, and
that it in fact is the United States that is the true world bully, serial nation-killer,
serial mass murderer and brutal enemy of the rest of the world.
