The 10/07 Hamas raid had to have been known about and allowed to happen by Israeli authorities. The reason for doing that is what we are seeing today—the destruction of Gaza and annihilation of its people. Something similar just happened in Ukraine on a much larger scale. Both Hamas and Putin were first provoked and then in one way or another allowed to attack or all but forced to attack. None of this is pretty and the morality is as low as it goes but this is how the neocon West has been operating. WMD in Iraq was the same or similar. 9/11, the same or similar. Afghanistan, the same or similar. Vietnam… I am just recognizing and describing what is happening. It’s happening to us too. ABN
Consulting firms linked to the White House’s leading Ukraine policy architects – including Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland – appear to be advising the Ukrainian government on its reconstruction efforts funded by U.S. taxpayers.
The unearthed connections come amidst over $110 billion being sent to the notoriously corrupt country, with staunch opposition to curtailing the flow of cash or even auditing where the funds are actually being spent. Strategy papers obtained from these White House-linked consulting firms appear to call for a “multi-decade” continuation of foreign aid to Ukraine, even admitting the war provided a “window of opportunity” to achieve changes that would have been “politically difficult to achieve.”
Nuland, currently a top State Department official believed to be behind U.S. efforts to orchestrate Ukraine’s 2014 Maidan Revolution, was a former Senior Counselor at the Albright Stonebridge Group, a global business strategy firm based in Washington, D.C. In addition to Nuland, Albright Stonebridge Group counts several high-ranking White House officials linked to Ukraine policy as its alumni: United Nations Ambassador Linda Thomas-Greenfield, Deputy Secretary of State for Management and Resources Richard Verma, Nominee for Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs James O’Brien.
Despite the robust conflict of interest, Albright Stonebridge appears to be involved in advising on the issue of Ukraine reconstruction. The firm published a white paper -“Land Value Capture Can Finance Ukraine’s Reconstruction, Reduce Corruption, And Boost Productivity” – outlining a variety of economic strategies for rebuilding Ukraine with foreign aid packages, predominantly underwritten by U.S. taxpayers.

It is obvious the Ukraine War was provoked by US neocons who control NATO in order to: 1) destabilize Russia and 2) destroy Ukraine and denude it of population and military males so that Ukraine can be rebuilt by US neocons in their image and for their gain. This is the real meaning of ‘Build Back Better.’
Strategists willing and able to pursue goals as destructive and selfish as these cannot be expected to back down because they lost the war. In their minds, they have succeeded in one-half of their mission—destroying Ukraine—and will not flinch from escalating the war to control the 2024 US election probably through new emergency war powers.
Many signs show the neocons also want to destabilize and destroy Europe and for the same reasons—Build Back Better in their own image. My sense is that Poland and the Baltics are being bribed and pushed into entering the war, thus making it a full-on NATO responsibility. The timing of this will be linked to the US elections. The covid psyop, which controlled the elections of 2020, began in early 2020 so it is reasonable to expect similar timing in 2024. This time it will be a war psyop probably starting around the end of this year. ABN
UPDATE: If the war goes nuclear and then global, destroying Russia, China, Europe and USA, I do not believe the neocons in control of these policies will be bothered in the least. They know that when the dust settles they will be in control of all of it—the entire world, which will have a greatly reduced and compliant population, allowing them complete freedom to Build Back in any way they choose. ABN
This is an excellent thread on Ukraine and its many ties to USA neocons and corruption. I believe the real figure of Ukrainian military dead as of today is 500,000. Half the country has fled. I deeply fear Poland and the Baltics have been sucked into the neocon-NATO death spiral and may take all of Europe down with them. WW3 has never been closer. The massacre of Ukraine happened for a reason and they are not finished yet. ABN
UPDATE: A mere glance at this map show how tragic it is that Europe did not seize the opportunity to form a solid, mutually beneficial alliance with Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union. Instead, directed by US neocons, Europe did almost everything it could to destroy the possibility of that alliance. All the blame falls on the neocons, no one else. Russia, especially under Putin, did all it could to become a rightful member of the Western alliance. The worst foreign policy mistake in world history has been the neocon West antagonizing Russia when they should have been embracing her with open arms. I have been watching this tragedy unfold over the past thirty plus years and take no pleasure in seeing what has resulted. The West will go on, the world will go on, but what a monumental waste it was to reject Russia. ABN
Chinese President Xi Jinping defined all the major decisions embedded in the 15th BRICS summit in South Africa as “historic”. That may be seen as an understatement.
It will take time for the Global South, or Global Majority, or “Global Globe” (copyright President Lukashenko), not to mention the stunned collective West, to fully grasp the enormity of the new strategic stakes.
President Putin, for his part, described the negotiations on BRICS expansion as quite difficult. By now a relatively accurate picture is emerging of what really went down on that table in Johannesburg.
India wanted 3 new members. China wanted as many as 10. A compromise was finally reached, with 6 members: Egypt, Iran, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates (UAE), Argentina and Ethiopia.
So from now on it’s BRICS 11. And that’s just the beginning. Starting with the rotating Russian presidency of BRICS on January 1, 2024, more partners will be progressively included, and most certainly a new round of full members will be announced at the BRICS 11 summit in Kazan in October next year.
So we may soon progress to BRICS 20 – on the way to BRICS 40. The G7, for all practical purposes, is sliding towards oblivion.
…The BRICS 11 Shock of the New, in the energy sphere, is a sharp historical counterpoint to the 1973 oil shock, after which Riyadh started wallowing in petrodollars. Now Saudi Arabia under MbS is operating a tectonic shift, in the process of becoming strategically aligned with Russia-China-India-Iran.
Diplomatic coup does not even begin to describe it. This is the second stage of the Russian-initiated and Chinese-finalized rapprochement between Riyadh and Tehran, recently sealed in Beijing. The Russia-China strategic leadership, working patiently in synch, never lost sight of the ball.
Excellent analysis, straight to the point. US neocons have brought us to this dismal end. Like a tribe of uneducable adolescents they have wreaked havoc with US and deep Western interests as well as global interests for all. Self-aggrandizement has been the neocon only goal throughout their thirty year reign over USA and the West, and all the world can see it. ABN
Bloc adds Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt, Argentina and UAE
Expansion could lend global clout to BRICS
Group leaves door open to further expansion
JOHANNESBURG, Aug 24 (Reuters) – The BRICS bloc of developing nations agreed on Thursday to admit Saudi Arabia, Iran, Ethiopia, Egypt, Argentina and the United Arab Emirates in a move aimed at accelerating its push to reshuffle a world order it sees as outdated.
In deciding in favour of an expansion – the bloc’s first in 13 years – BRICS leaders left the door open to future enlargement as dozens more countries voiced interest in joining a grouping they hope can level the global playing field.
The expansion adds economic heft to BRICS, whose current members are China, the world’s second largest economy, as well as Brazil, Russia, India and South Africa. It could also amplify its declared ambition to become a champion of the Global South.
But long-standing tensions could linger between members who want to forge the grouping into a counterweight to the West – notably China, Russia and now Iran – and those that continue to nurture close ties to the United States and Europe.
“This membership expansion is historic,” Chinese President Xi Jinping, the bloc’s most stalwart proponent of enlargement, said. “It shows the determination of BRICS countries for unity and cooperation with the broader developing countries.”
This is a consequence of the NATO-neocon massacre of Ukraine and wanton provocation of Russia. Most of the world sees it for what it is and is disgusted by it. The sanctions on Russia failed, hurting only Europe and the West. Our American elitists have proved once again that they suck at everything but their own self-aggrandizement, and even that may backfire on them. ABN
Luttwak, 80, may not be as visibly influential as Kissinger, but as a behind the scenes strategist he’s been advising the Pentagon across the spectrum for over five decades.
What’s “unlimited”, depicted by Luttwak in a Spenglerian sweep, is Xi Jinping’s drive to “get ready for war”. And if there’s a war, Luttwak claims that “of course” China would lose. That dovetails with the supreme delusion of Straussian neocon psychos across the Beltway.
Luttwak, in just a few words, actually gives away the whole game: “The Russian Federation, as it is, is not strong enough to contain China as much as we would wish”.
Hence the turn around by the Biden combo to “freeze” the conflict in the Donbass and change the subject. After all, “if that [China] is the threat, you don’t want Russia to fall apart,” Luttwak reasons.
This is an anti-Ukraine war and an anti-Europe war every bit as much as it is an anti-Russia war. US strategy appears to be full chaos & destruction till only US neocons are left standing. ABN
Ukrainian soldiers have painted a bleak picture of their on-going defence of Bakhmut, the small eastern city that has become the target of Europe’s bloodiest infantry battle since the Second World War.
Kyiv‘s soldiers have said they knew they were being sent to their deaths when they were given the orders to go to the city, and admitted they are ‘just getting killed’.
This battle and the whole war have been a massacre of Ukrainian men. It is American/ NATO neocons who blocked early negotiations a year ago that could have ended the war on reasonable terms for both sides. I see no other conclusion than Zelensky’s masters want to see Ukraine denuded of Ukrainians. Pouring money and weapons into Ukraine has served no other purpose than to slaughter Ukrainian young men in hopeless battles while driving all other Ukrainians out of the country. ABN
This vid is a Russian short on the war that illustrates what I see above all—annihilation of Ukraine provoked by NATO/neocons. If Russia is harmed or destroyed in the process, so much the better from the NATO/neocon POV. The entire world today is wrapped in a giant psyop. Denuding Ukraine of people is part of it and fits like a glove with denuding the world of people through iatrogenic warfare. (All content above this paragraph is from the Tweet linked just above. I copied Brandon’s inane statement to preserve the original look of the Tweet.) ABN
Hungary has been in the crosshairs of the Biden/Obama administration ever since Prime Minister Viktor Orban refused to align with the WEF Western Democracies in their quest for regime change in Russia. As the NATO led western alliance assembled to use Ukraine as a proxy war against Russia, Hungarian Prime Minister Orban would not join.
In early April 2022, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban was overwhelmingly reelected {LINK}, despite the massive efforts against him by the European Union, western and euro-centric multinational globalists. As a result of the victory, Brussels was furious at the Hungarian people. Associated Press – […] “Orban — a fierce critic of immigration, LGBTQ rights and “EU bureaucrats” — has garnered the admiration of right-wing nationalists across Europe and North America.” (link)
Within the statements reported from his 2022 victory speech, Prime Minister Orban warned citizens of the NATO and western allied countries about the manipulation of Ukraine and how he views the Zelenskyy regime: […] “while speaking to supporters on Sunday, Orban singled out Zelenskyy as part of the “overwhelming force” that he said his party had struggled against in the election — “the left at home, the international left, the Brussels bureaucrats, the Soros empire with all its money, the international mainstream media, and in the end, even the Ukrainian president.” (link)
This put Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban in the crosshairs of the western alliance, specifically the EU and U.S. bureaucrats who use their power, position and intelligence apparatus to manipulate foreign nations. A year later and now we see USAID Administrator Samantha Power in Hungary openly discussing her seeding of the NGO’s and political activist systems in order to generate yet another color revolution. {Direct Rumble Link} – WATCH:
Samantha Power, the wife of Cass Sunstein, is well known as the Obama/Biden administration’s advance operative who uses her position in U.S. government to influence activism in targeted nations. Hungary is now her target.
More neocon destruction of anything and everything that opposes them. Another step down the road toward WW3. As more people start to figure out the plandemic, WW3 is likely to be their next card though surely not their only option. That said, they do exhibit patterns as almost the same game was played in Ukraine in 2014. ABN
A Review of DiEugenio’s “Foreign Policy Coup” Theory
I have watched Oliver Stone’s documentary on the assassination of JFK, both the short version,JFK Revisited: Through the Looking Glass, and the long version in four episodes, JFK: Destiny Betrayed. I recommend the latter, which I will discuss here. Although the technical parts (the bullets, the autopsy, Oswald’s CIA handlers) are interesting and partly new, I will focus exclusively on the theory regarding the main culprits and their motive. And I will discuss the larger work of James DiEugenio, who wrote the film—and probably interviewed the different contributors, although Stone appears to be doing it.
James DiEugenio has been investigating the Kennedy presidency and the Kennedy assassination from the time of the Assassination Records Review Board (ARRB), which was largely a consequence of Oliver Stone’s Hollywood film JFK (1991). His first book was Destiny Betrayed: JFK, Cuba, and the Garrison Case (1992, newly edited in 2012). In 1993, he founded Citizens for Truth about the Kennedy Assassination (CTKA), and co-edited Probe Magazine, now replaced by the website KennedysandKing.com.
Sheila Jackson Lee, a Black radical activist Congresswoman from Houston has introduced a bill in the House that would criminalize thought crimes, and in particular it would criminalize sites like The Occidental Observer, but also the much more mainstream Tucker Carlson. This is because it includes “replacement theory” as a possible motivation and would apply to anyone who writes or talks about replacement theory in a public forum so that someone seeing it online could be inspired to commit a crime as a result (say, assaulting an immigrant). In such a case, the writer or talk show personality would be considered a co-conspirator.
