As a person who is considered fair-minded by world media and who arrives at reasonable conclusions independently of Washington's propaganda, I am often interviewed by foreign as well as US independent media organizations. As of late, the Russian media has turned to me on a number of occasions. What I have learned is that the Russian media is perplexed by Washington's hostility to Russia.
Russia is not operating in the old Confederate South trying to turn the American South against Washington for Washington's rapine, murder, and destruction of the Southern culture, but Washington is operating in the Russian South trying to turn Ukraine, long a part of Russia, against Russia.
As Russians, except perhaps for the government, are unaware of the Wolfowitz Doctrine, they do not know that the main goal of Washington is to prevent the rise of all other powers that could limit Washington's role as sole Unipower, Hegemon over Earth.
Instead of realizing the real threat, Russian media organizations ask me if the Russian budget can stand responding to sanctions from Washington and the EU by cutting off the energy supply to Europe.
Each time I hear this question I am astonished. Russia can shut down much of European industry and deprive the Europeans of heat in winter, and Russian media ask me if Russia can afford it?
Can Russia afford to be demonized by lies, to be driven into the ground by propagandistic sanctions that will hurt Europe and some US corporations, to convey the image that Russia is so weak as to be helpless in the face of Western sanctions as to accept the sanctions without demonstrating the cost to Europe and the US?
Does Washington even have Russians brainwashed?
I am concerned about the crisis that Washington has orchestrated, because I believe it is leading to war, which will be nuclear. Are you ready to be destroyed over Washington's lies about one Malaysian airliner? I am convinced that Washington is behind the destruction of MH-17, because Washington's propaganda show was already ready and was instantly in performance. That Washington is responsible is the reason that Washington will not release its satellite photos of the area during the moment of the airliner's destruction. That Washington is responsible is the reason that Washington replies to Russian hard evidence with lies and propaganda. It is Obama and Obama's stooges in Kiev that refuse to negotiate, not Russia.
Russia has as many nuclear warheads as Washington, and Washington's "ABM shield" is a farce. If the insane American government drives a crisis, which Washington alone created, to war, we will all die, and for what? The answer is: for a Washington LIE.
Do you want to die for a lie? Another Washington lie?
If you don't, you had better let Washington know.
Russia cannot end this crisis unless it puts its foot down. I have previously made the case that Russia should take its case to the UN. Alternatively, the Russian government needs to engage Europe in two questions. One is does Europe want its energy supplies from Russia cut off, energy that Washington, despite its lies, cannot replace for three or more years if at all... The other is does Europe want war with Russia and does Europe think that those idiotic countries that host Washington's missiles won't be nuked and exterminated?
The crisis in Ukraine will continue to Russia's and all of humanity's cost until Russia explains to the stupid, arrogant, hubris-filled West that the West's criminal and aggressive actions against Russia bear a real cost, and that Russia is prepared to impose the cost.
The propagandized people in the West have no idea of the fate toward which their demented governments are driving them. Russia needs to make it clear to the brainwashed propagandized peoples in the West that Russia is not going to be a puppet state of the West or to accept gratuitous aggression from the White House Fool.
It would help to save life on Earth if China also made this clear.
The sooner the better.
