Stunning Evidence of US Government Criminal Conspiracy: Two US Army Cryptographic Code Operators Overheard JFK Assassination Plan

JFK and American Flag

Every so often new information is revealed about that most seminal event of the post war 1900's...the Assassination of US President John Fitzgerald Kennedy.  Kennedy was shot down like a dog in the streets of Dallas, Texas on November 22, 1963, a date that will truly live in infamy.  The more time passes and the more the United States continues on its path of steady deterioration into a ZioFascist dictatorship, run by a secret, anonymous group of organized international criminals, the more nostalgic decent folk become for an era when a populist, intellectual, moral president...very much along the lines of today's Putin of Russia, gave the West hope that we were entering a new era of peaceful development of this planet.  Younger generations don't remember that time and that stolen hope.  So they say that the assassination of JFK is "old history" and we need to "move on".

In actual fact, the United States as a functioning, evolving democracy was frozen in time on that day in Dallas.  It's like the prehistoric Ice Man of Europe,  who was murdered in the Alps and lay frozen and mummified for 5,000 years.  Now scientists are taking the mummified remains out and examining the Ice Man's stomach--to find out what he had for a last meal.  Similarly, the American organs of government, its institutions, judicial system and bureaucracy have also been mummified-- and neutered. Archival documentation related to the Assassination of JFK has recently been made public--motivating a few independent and self-funded researchers to examine traces of the evidence of the last free moments in the life of a nation.

Unlike the remains of the Iceman, there is no big government research grant available to the JFK assassination researchers to do their exhumation and forensic study.  And nothing will ever come of their findings.  Unlike the BBC report on the Ice Man findings...the report below will NEVER be printed in the BBC or any Main$tream media outlet.  But still, these intrepid few sort through the entrails of the memos, letters and telegrams and occasionally come up with stunning new information.  Please read the following synopsis that I found on Paul Craig Roberts blog, but which was actually printed in the blog called Information Clearing House.  I will have more thoughts in comments to follow:

Two US Army Cryptographic Code Operators Overheard JFK Assassination Plan

President Trump forced the release of 53,000 CIA documents of the Kennedy assassination that were withheld from the public for more than a half century. The presstitute media, a CIA asset, did not report on the documents. Professor Jerry Kroth, who has written books about JFKs assassination found intercepted and decoded messages by Eugene V. Dinkin and David Christensen who stumbled upon the plot independently. The two men tried to sound the alarm and were sent to psychiatric hospitals. Professor Kroth tells the story here: http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/49828.htm

By Jerry Kroth

July 11, 2018 "Information Clearing House" -In November, 2017 President Trump released 35,000 documents the Kennedy assassination that were withheld for half a century. He wanted to release more, but the CIA requested more time. He gave them six months, and, on April 26 of this year another 18,000 documents came forth.

The media hardly covered the April release, and, overall, the reporting was cursory at best and pathetic at worst. These documents consummately alter our understanding of the assassination, of Jack Ruby, of Marina Oswald, David Ferrie, Richard Helms, J. Edgar Hoover, and certainly Lyndon Johnson.

But let us take a smaller bite from this apple.

Introducing Eugene V. Dinkin. Two documents were released about this man in November which caught my attention, and one more appeared in the 2018 release.

Frankly, as an academic who wrote two books on JFK, I never heard of him.

Since it took 54 years to lift the veil of censorship on this account, perhaps Eugene should not be ignored any more than he already has.

Private First Class Eugene Dinkin worked in Metz, France. He was a cryptographic code operator for the U.S. Army and in early November, 1963, three weeks before the assassination, he discovered something sobering, a plot to assassinate the President of the United States. He intercepted—or decoded— two messages, and the names he relayed all make a lot of sense today, a French/Corsican assassin, Jean Souetre, Guy Banister, and William Harvey.

That was in 1963, but in 2007, former CIA majordomo, Howard Hunt, made a deathbed confession about the assassination to his son and mentioned two of those suspects. His son, quite unaware of Eugene Dinkin, scrambled to take notes and videotape his father. Hunt’s revelation can been on Youtube today.

Retuning to Dinkin, in early November, Private Dinkin was so concerned about his discovery, he had his friend mail a letter to Robert Kennedy. The letter warned RFK that an assassination plot was underway and would occur in Texas about November 28th.

Dinkin said that plans were that the murder would be blamed on either a communist or a Negro.

Dinkin had serious doubts his letter would ever each him, so with a jolt of derring-do, he deserted his post and made it to Switzerland to a UN press briefing room where he thought he might get better reception. The U.S. military picked him and shipped him off to Walter Reed to a psychiatric ward. He was confined for the next six months.

Trump’s two released cables say Dinkin went to Geneva on the 6th of November with his story.

That was exactly 17 days before Kennedy was murdered. “Neither the FBI nor the Warren Commission ever investigated the Dinkin case, ” despite his clear prediction.

A second soldier peeks through Trump’s document dump too, and entirely independent of Eugene Dinkin, David Christensen:

There are two CIA documents on him which were released in April. Christensen was an Air Force Sergeant who was stationed at Kirknewton, Scotland. He intercepted a communication just before Novemeber, 1963 that an assassination attempt would be made on President Kennedy.

Little substantive information beyond this fact is given except that Kirknewton was an RAF base, which had a relationship with the CIA, which was using it as a top-secret listening station.

Christensen heard something he shouldn’t have heard, and he heard it in a top-secret CIA listening post. As you can probably guess, Sgt. Christensen, like Eugene Dinkin, was summarily “committed to a mental institution.”

One should raise an important question here as with all of these released documents: why were they withheld for half a century?

Clearly, if two psychotic persons ranted off about the President being killed—and both properly confined to mental institutions as deranged —such stories would merely constitute tabloid pulp and not rise above the level of the National Enquirer. The fact that these stories never graced our supermarkets, but were withheld from the public and from scholars for five decades is certainly worth more than a raised eyebrow.

Two code operators, in secret American military installations, quite independently of each other—and both obviously with clearances—discovered chatter, decidedly secret chatter, about the coming assassination of the President of the United States. If taken seriously, it meant a deep conspiracy was afoot involving high level government and military plotters, not little Lee Harvey who was sorting textbooks in the Texas School Book Depository for $1.25 an hour.

In order to preserve the Warren Commission myth that a single, lone assassin shot the President required—absolutely and irrevocably—that such news be hidden, covered up, and sequestered from any public awareness—and indeed it was. Frankly, it is a miracle these files survived at all considering their significance.

A very belated thanks and a few hosannas from the American people, Eugene and David, wherever you may be.

Greencrow Says:  Perhaps I am the only one in the world who connects the dots between the Iceman Research and the JFK Assassination.  Perhaps I'm the only one who sees the irony between the government-supported research into the death of a prehistoric hunter 5000 years ago and the lack of government interest in the death of a President in 1963.  

Both men were murdered.  Both were out working, fulfilling their career paths...both were ambushed and shot...one with an arrow and one with a barrage of high powered rifle bullets from the "grassy knoll".

The above JFK research information...about two independent military men who discovered, prior to the event..evidence of a high level government conspiracy to assassinate the President...should provoke at least the same level of reaction and interest that is now being shown for the Iceman.  The fact that both whistleblowers were committed to mental institutions should provoke a cry for justice from the fifth estate, a motivation to find out more about these men. Who were they? What happened to them afterwards?  Are they still alive?  If so they should be given medals for courage and dedication to country.  Who made sure that they were incarcerated until after the assassination took place?  James Jesus Angleton?  Did he make THAT decision too?

It's truly ironic about time.  Sometimes it's used as a positive factor--to find out what happened to a man who lived so long ago .  And sometimes its used as a negative factor....we don't need to find out what happened to the President who was shot down in the street like a dog...it's old news...everybody connected to his death is already dead anyway.  It serves no purpose to dig up the old evidence.

Who makes these decisions about the relative value of time?

Middle East officials flocking to Moscow – is there a big deal?

Putin Meeting with Middle Eastern Leaders

Continuing on with my most recent post of last Tuesday. I see in this morning's RT that other geopolitical analysts, this time from Russia, are also noticing that there is a flurry of diplomatic activity between Russian President Putin and Middle East Leaders, including Israel's Netanyahu, Iranian high officials and other stakeholders in the region.  To reiterate, these leaders all have more to do with their time than to meet about nothing.  Logic tells me, at least, that there must be something "big" in the works.  Please read the following report from RT which I have copied in its entirety and I will have more comments to follow:

*****************

From This Morning's RT

"Middle East officials flocking to Moscow – is there a big deal to be made before Putin meets Trump?

https://www.rt.com/news/432839-middle-east-leaders-moscow/

Moscow is awash this week with Middle East movers and shakers, apparently eager to have a word with Vladimir Putin ahead of his meeting with Trump. Is there a big ME deal in the making? RT talks to analysts.

Before having a face-off with his US counterpart in Helsinki next week, President Putin is to have several high-profile meetings in Russia. There is Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Ali Akbar Velayati, the foreign policy aide to Iran’s Supreme Leader. Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas will be in Moscow in time to watch the World Cup finals on Sunday and is expected to meet Putin. Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Emir of Qatar, will also be among the spectators, although whether he would talk with Putin is yet to be confirmed.

Amid the flurry of visits there is some speculation in the media that a grand deal between the US and Russia, which would involve a rebalancing of power in the Middle East, may come out from the Helsinki talks and that regional players are making an 11th-hour bid to ensure that their interests would be taken into consideration.

Such a scenario is possible, but highly unlikely, because it would be inconsistent with Russia’s current policies in the Middle East, Grigory Lukyanov, a Middle East analyst and senior lecturer at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow, told RT.

“There are concerns in Damascus and Tehran that the course which Russia had in foreign policy over the past years, may take a shift similarly to how it happened in the past, when in pursuit of some global agreement with the US, Russia would sacrifice its Middle Eastern achievements and interests that it perceived secondary,” he said.

The sentiment is particularly strong in some Iranian political circles, which view Moscow as unreliable and its interests inconsistent with those of Tehran, he said. Such concerns don’t seem to be backed by facts and are inconsistent with Russia’s own interests in the region.

‘US - a beautiful and rich, but air-headed girl’

One should not overestimate how much Donald Trump may realistically offer in Helsinki to have Russia make any major policy change and how tempting this offer would be for Putin, Sergey Balmasov, a senior analyst at the Center for Crisis Society, a Moscow-based think tank, told RT.

“The moods of America are like the moods of a very beautiful and rich, but air-headed girl. Today you flirt with her, and the next day you find relations with that guy Iran spoiled. Such things require great care, and people in the Russian foreign ministry realize it well,” he explained. “And anyway, global issues cannot be solved Gorbachev-style with a stroke of a pen.”

‘Russia offers solutions US failed to’

Russia’s involvement in Syria, which changed the situation dramatically from the hopeless slide towards total disintegration in 2014 to the relative stability of today, is a major point of leverage for Moscow in regional politics, Balmasov said. Tactical considerations like the presence of pro-Iranian troops in southern Syria and Israel’s combative reaction to it, are of course important, but the really important issue for the country would be post-war reconstruction and who would pay for it.

Lukyanov agrees that Moscow would win nothing from siding with either party involved in the Middle East. Russia’s current policy in this region is to play its own game while taking into account the interests of other players. The meetings with Netanyahu and Velayati are most likely just meant to keep Putin up to date with the positions of Israel and Iran respectively, he believes.

At the moment Russia sees a more prominent place for itself in the Middle East, but the role it is ready to play is limited, compared to other global players, he said.

“Russia’s strong point now is the ability and willingness to offer solutions to security problems. The US failed in that regard in Iraq and some other places,” Lukyanov said. “But Russia cannot and is not trying to replace the US as a primary trade partner for Middle Eastern nations. Same is true about replacing China or Europe."

“Solving security issues requires constructive dialogue with stakeholders, and the Syrian experience is viewed by the Russian leadership as more than constructive. Many people in the Middle Eastern nations, Arab or otherwise, share this position,” he added."

*****************

Greencrow says:  the only thing new about the above report which I did not factor into my previous analysis of Tuesday is that they [Putin and the Foreign Leaders] may be discussing "post-war reconstruction and who would pay for it."

Post war reconstruction could be broadened to include all of the Middle East which has been torn apart by conflict during the past 60 or so years.  This would include Palestine...which closely resembles war time internment camps, complete with high concrete walls surrounding Palestinian "reserves" and fortified military check points--through which all must come and go.  Palestine is definitely a festering, toxic war time situation--which should be included in any holistic approach to the Middle East Peace Process.

Let's face it...trying to get reconstruction money to rebuild all the rubbled infrastructure that USrael has created in the Middle East would be like trying to squeeze blood from a stone.  Ain't gonna happen.  I keep wondering why Trump is so obsessed with getting NATO members to "up their contributions" and wonder if he's trying to gather a nest egg to fling at any project that Putin might have towards a "Marshall-type Plan" for the middle east.  But trying to make some logical sense out of Trump's rambles is also a non-starter.  Even Trump's fellow NATO members have no clue what he's trying to do.

All I can do is apply logic to Putin's actions.  I have faith in the Russian Leader's adherence to logic... and it seems logical to me that he's trying to apply his superb negotiating skills to the Middle East Gordian Knot of occupied Palestine.  This is the nucleus of all the troubles in the Middle East.  This is what gathers disparate Arabs/Muslims from all over the region into Hezbollah armies to fight the Israeli regime in all its manifestations and proxies throughout Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Yemen and Palestine, etc.

The only way to solve the central problem in the Middle East is to open a relief valve for the demographic crisis that's building in Gaza.  If those Israelis who are unable to tolerate free Palestinians in a unified, democratic society were given another option, say an option to move en masse to a huge arable tract of land in Russia's Asia [coincidentally the ancestral homeland of 90% of them] this would relieve the societal pressure to constantly tighten the screws on the poor Palestinians.  Similar to the 15,000 or so white South Africans who cannot abide the collapse of the apartheid system in SA...and are now considering a Putin offer to move to Russia.

Putin believes Russia needs more settlers in the eastern provinces of Russia.  This is made evident in his longstanding offer of "free land" to those who would come and settle and develop the far eastern reaches of Russia.  Now, in this era of the building of the "New Silk Road", with its gas and oil pipe lines....human labour is needed more than ever in this region. So this is where the "win win" comes in.  I guess Putin's hope is that, given the distances between settlements in this region, it would be several generations at least before the Khazarians entered their inevitable cycle of political infiltration, parasitical control and destruction of their [Russian] host.

Some readers think I'm going out on a limb in making this prognostication.  But I've been emboldened to follow my hunches, more so ever since my hunch that there was/is a Deep State Civil War going on in the "security agencies" and institutions of the United States proved prescient.  When I first wrote about that undeclared internal civil war several years ago now...I was alone in my assessment, just like I'm now alone in my assessment that Putin is going to render Russia's vast geographic potential into a lubricant...that will soften the hardened tangles of the Middle East Gordian Knot.

What's Up with Putin Meeting Netanyahu So Frequently During the Past Few Months?

Daniel in the Lion's Den

History repeats itself as an old saying goes.  In the geopolitical event I will be discussing this morning it looks like the Biblical tale of Daniel going into the Lion's Den is repeating itself as Russian President Vladimir Putin appears to be inserting himself into the more than half century conflict going on in the Middle East.  This is the conflict that began when the Then Empire, Great Britain, ceded the little nation of Palestine over to the Khazarian Jews who are originally from an area in Asia now known as Bulgaria.

Since these Khazarian Jews had no cultural affinity to the indigenous Palestinians, they've treated them like foreigners, interlopers in their own country.  They've rounded the Palestinians up and put them into walled-in reserves.  These reserves have since been constantly denied essentials, such as potable water and ability to trade with other nations for essential goods and services.  The United Nations has decreed that the open air concentration camp called Gaza is already unfit for human habitation and the hundreds of thousands of prisoners [Palestinians] imprisoned therein are being slowly genocided.

The world, particularly the United Kingdom and America, two nations who brought the situation about and allowed it to deteriorate by not exerting any pressure on Israel to negotiate a humane settlement to the issues, have stood by, wringing their hands and saying "Tut, tut" occasionally, like when Israeli planes fly over the prison grounds, dropping incendiary bombs on the unarmed civilian population...shooting fish in a barrel.

Enter Vladimir Putin.  President Putin is fresh from gaining respect and credibility in the Middle East region by stopping the latest Western effort to destroy a country...Syria...dead in its tracks.  He has built up trust in Iran, Syria and even Iraq....one of the US-destroyed countries. Now, it appears that he is about to take on the biggest challenge of his career.  He is about to try and untie the Gordian Knot that is the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.  In the past few months Putin has personally met with Netanyahu at least three times. Please read the following report from Tass regarding yet another meeting between the two leaders and I will have more comments to follow:

Benjamin Netanyahu and Vladimir Putin

From Tass.com

Putin, Netanyahu to discuss Israel-Palestine issue, Syrian conflict on July 11

MOSCOW, July 10. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will hold a meeting on July 11 to discuss bilateral cooperation and global affairs, including the Israel-Palestine issue and the Syrian conflict, the Kremlin press service said in a statement.

"On July 11, Russian President Vladimir Putin will hold a meeting with Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu," the statement reads. "The parties are expected to discuss pressing cooperation issues and problems on the global agenda, including ways to resolve the Israel-Palestine issue and the Syrian conflict," the Kremlin press service added.

The Israeli prime minister is also expected to attend the 2018 FIFA World Cup semi-final match between England and Croatia set to be held on July 11.

*****************
Greencrow says:  The biggest question to be asked about these meetings is...what "bait" is Putin using to build up trust between himself and Netanyahu?  And what is the quid pro quo for that bait?  First, it's important to acknowledge that there's likely a lot we don't know about the state of affairs between Israel and Russia.  After all, we are dependent on the Mainstream Media, known to be chronic and relentless liars...for details about the dynamics between the two.

Given the dearth of factual, reliable information, I believe my hunches about what's going on are at least as valid as anyone else's. After all, both these men have more to do than meet about nothing.  So I'm going to speculate that the "bait" that Russia is offering is twofold.  He's offering some of Russia's state of the art defense systems...the S400 as an example...for Israel to set up to protect itself from its "enemies du jour" Iran and the like.  It has made so many enemies in the region that Israel has become pathologically paranoid.  Putin is playing to this pathology.  But I believe Putin is also offering a carrot in the form of huge tracts of land in Russia's vast Asian territories.  I read just yesterday where Russia has offered land to about 15,000 South African white farmers who are now feeling "uncomfortable" since the apartheid regime fell.  He may also be offering a share in the "silk road" oil/gas pipelines that are planned to be routed through Syria.  In return, it's obvious what needs to happen vis a vis the Palestinians.  They need to be freed from their concentration camp prisons and allowed equal status throughout their ancestral homeland.  A new state needs to be formed that is neither Israel nor Palestine.  For the sake of discussion, let's call it Judea.

Again, with Putin...negotiation is all about setting up a "win win" situation for all parties...making them offers they cannot logically refuse.  Unlike the United States leaders of the past...he does not plead with or cajole the parties...he offers firm upgrades to their present situation.  That's it.  Whatever Putin is offering Netanyahu, he certainly has his attention.

I will continue to watch this situation closely.  Should Netanyahu become more deeply engaged in negotiations for Middle East Peace...with Putin as the broker...watch for the reaction of the West.  Can we all spell apoplexy?

Newest Wood Carvings: A Gift and an Owl

Block Nativity Scene

A "going away" gift for friends

This "Block Nativity Scene" was carved out of basswood.  It is 8" at its tallest point and 6" x 6" square at the base.  After carving each block, I painted the faces with acrylic paint and then varnished it all, including the base [which was constructed from bass wood by my husband] with a clear satin finish.  This nativity scene will shortly become a "going away" gift for a friend, one of a couple that we have travelled with over the years.  They're moving to the BC Interior.  She collects nativity scenes and has dozens from all over the world.  It is hoped that this will make a unique and personal addition to her collection.

"Barred Owl" Bark Wood Carving

Cottonwood Bark and Acrylic paint

22" in height and 6" wide

Here is a carving of a Barred Owl that I did out of Cottonwood bark.  I was inspired to carve a Barred Owl after one landed in the middle of the night with a loud "thump!" on the garage roof just outside my bedroom window last winter.  I awoke with a start and looked out--to see a huge white and brown feathered bird staring back at me.  The owl was about two feet high and about a 3/4 of a foot in width.  It had dark eyes, ringed with circles of white and brown feathers.  We stared at each other for a moment.  I turned to try and wake my husband.  When I looked back, seconds later, it had already flown off into the darkness.  In 30 years of living in this neighbourhood I had never seen an owl, even from a distance...and this one was about four feet away!  It was an almost supernatural experience.

So, when I was given a big piece of cottonwood bark by a carving friend...I saw the outlines of an owl, particularly the curved beak.  I also saw a knot hole--just where the eye would go.  The carving took on a life of its own and almost willed itself into being.  Now it's proudly displayed on our entranceway hallway...facing towards the door.  A friend recently told me--that her mother told her-- that you should always have a carved owl facing your doorway--to ward off danger.  Whooooo knew???!!!

Saker Book Review: Russian military analyst--America has Lost Military Superiority Due to Myopic Planning

MIT-developed Robot

This is some of the junk the US military was wasting trillion$ of taxpayer money on while Russia was spending far less--to develop far superior weaponry than the Pentagon has activated in the past few decades.

The Saker has published a book review in The Unz Review where he examines a treatise put forward by an expat Russian military analyst who is now blogging for the US Military.  The name of Martanov's book is:

Losing Military Supremacy: The Myopia of American Strategic Planning by Andrei Martyanov

ANDREI MARTYANOV is an expert on Russian military and naval issues.  He was born in Baku, USSR in 1963. He graduated from the Kirov Naval Red Banner Academy and served as an officer on the ships and staff position of Soviet Coast Guard through 1990. He took part in the events in the Caucasus which led to the collapse of the Soviet Union. In mid-1990s he moved to the United States where he currently works as Laboratory Director in a commercial aerospace group. He is a frequent blogger on the US Naval Institute Blog.

Please read the following book review, written by the Saker and copied in its entirety and greencrow will have comments to follow:

****************

"The fact that the US is facing a profound crisis, possibly the worst one in its history, is accepted by most observers, except maybe the most delusional ones. Most Americans definitely know that. In fact, if there is one thing upon which both those who supported Trump and those who hate him with a passion can agree on, it would be that his election is a clear proof of a profound crisis (I would argue that the election of Obama before also had, as one of its main causes, the very same systemic crisis). When speaking of this crisis, most people will mention the deindustrialization, the drop in real income, the lack of well-paid jobs, healthcare, crime, immigration, pollution, education, and a myriad of other contributing factors. But of all the aspects of the “American dream”, the single most resilient one has been the myth of the US military as “the finest fighting force in history”. In this new book, Andrei Martyanov not only comprehensively debunks this myth, he explains step by step how this myth was created and why it is collapsing now. This is no small feat, especially in a relatively short book (225 pages) which is very well written and accessible to everyone, not just military specialists.

Martyanov takes a systematic and step-by-step approach: first, he defines military power, then he explains where the myth of US military superiority came from and how the US rewriting of the history of WWII resulted in a complete misunderstanding, especially at the top political levels, of the nature of modern warfare. He then discusses the role ideology and the Cold War played in further exacerbating the detachment of US leaders from reality. Finally, he demonstrates how a combination of delusional narcissism and outright corruption resulted in a US military capable of wasting truly phenomenal sums of money on “defense” while at the same time resulting in an actual force unable to win a war against anything but a weak and defenseless enemy.

That is not to say that the US military has not fought in many wars and won. It did, but in the words of Martyanov:

"...Surely when America fought against a third-rate adversary it was possible to rain death from the skies, and then roll over its forces, if any remained by that time, with very little difficulty and casualties. That will work in the future too against that type of adversary—similar in size and flimsiness of Iraqi Forces circa 2003. But Ledeen’s Doctrine had one major flaw—one adult cannot continue to go around the sandbox constantly fighting children and pretend to be good at fighting adults..."

The main problem for the US today is that there are very few of those third-rate adversaries left out there and that those who the US is trying to bring to submission now are either near-peer or even peer adversaries. Martyanov specifically lists the factors which make that kind of adversary so different from those the US fought in the past:

1. Modern adversaries have command, control, communications, computers, intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance capabilities equal to or better than the US ones. 

2. Modern adversaries have electronic warfare capabilities equal to or better than the US ones 

3. Modern adversaries have weapon systems equal to or better than the US ones. 

4. Modern adversaries have air defenses which greatly limit the effectiveness of US airpower. 

5. Modern adversaries have long-range subsonic, supersonic and hypersonic cruise missiles which present a huge threat to the USN, bases, staging areas and even the entire US mainland.

In the book, all these points are substantiated with numerous and specific examples which I am not repeating here for the sake of brevity.

One could be forgiven for not being aware of any of these facts, at least if one considers the kind of nonsense written by the US corporate media or, for that matter, by the so-called “experts” (another interesting topic Martyanov discusses in some detail). Still, one can live in an imaginary world only as long as reality does not come crashing in, be it in the form of criminally overpriced and useless weapon systems or in the form of painful military defeats. The current hysteria about Russia as the Evil Mordor which is the culprit for everything and anything bad (real or imaginary) happening to the US is mostly due to the fact that Russia, in total contradiction to all the “expert” opinions, not only did not crash or turn into a “gas station masquerading as a country” with her economy “in tatters”, but succeeded in developing a military which, for a small fraction of the US military budget, whose armed forces are in reality far more capable than the US forces.

I realize that this last statement is quite literally “unthinkable” for many Americans and I submit that the very fact that this is so literally unthinkable greatly contributed to making this possible in the first place: when you are so damn sure that by some kind of miracle of history, or God’s will, or Manifest Destiny or any other supernatural reason, you are inherently and by definition superior and generally “better” than everybody else you are putting yourself in great danger of being defeated. This is as true for Israel as it is for the US. I would also add that in the course of the West’s history this “crashing in of reality” in the comfy world of narcissistic delusion often came in the form of a Russian soldier defeating the putatively much superior master race of the day (from the Crusaders to the Nazis). Hence the loathing which western ruling elites always had for everything Russian.

In this book, Martyanov explains why, in spite of the absolutely catastrophic 1990s, the Russians succeeded in developing a modern and highly capable combat force in a record time. There are two main reasons for this: first, unlike their US counterparts, Russian weapons are designed to kill, not to make money and, second, Russians understand warfare because they understand what war really is. This latest argument might look circular, but it is not: Russians are all acutely aware of what war really means and, crucially, they are actually willing to make personal sacrifices to either avoid or, at least, win wars. In contrast, Americans have no experience of real warfare (that is warfare in defense of their own land, family and friends) at all. For Americans warfare is killing the other guy in his own country, preferably from afar or above, while making a ton of money in the process. For Russians, warfare is simply about surviving at any and all cost. The difference couldn’t be greater.

The difference in weapons systems acquisition is also simple: since US wars never really put the people of the US at risk, the consequences of developing under-performing weapons systems were never catastrophic. The profits made, however, were immense. Hence the kind of criminally overpriced and useless weapons system like the F-35, the Littoral Combat Ship or, of course, the fantastically expensive and no less fantastically vulnerable aircraft carriers. The Russian force planners had very different priorities: not only did they fully realize that the failure to produce an excellently performing weapons system could result in their country being devastated and occupied (not to mention their families and themselves either enslaved or killed), they also realized that they could never match the Pentagon in terms of spending. So what they did was to design comparatively much cheaper weapons systems which could destroy or render useless the output of the multi-trillion dollar US military-industrial complex. This is how Russian missiles made the entire US ABM program and the US carrier-centric Navy pretty much obsolete as well as how Russian air defenses turned putatively “invisible” US aircraft into targets or how Russian diesel-electric submarines are threatening US nuclear attack subs. All that at a tiny fraction of what the US taxpayer spends on “defense”. Here again, Martyanov gives plenty of detailed examples.

Martyanov’s book will deeply irritate and even outrage those for whom the US narcissistic culture of axiomatic superiority has become an integral part of their identity. But for everybody else this book is an absolute must-have because the future of our entire planet is at stake here: the question is not whether the US Empire is collapsing, but what the consequences of this collapse will be for our planet. Right now, the US military has turned into a “hollow force” which simply cannot perform its mission, especially since that mission is, as defined by US politicians, the control of the entire planet. There is a huge discrepancy between the perceived and the actual capabilities of the US military and the only way to bridge this gap are, of course, nuclear weapons. This is why the last chapter in the book is entitled “The Threat of a Massive American Military Miscalculation”. In this chapter, Martyanov names the real enemy of both the Russian and the American people – the US political elites and, especially, the Neocons: they are destroying the US as a country and they are putting all of mankind at risk of nuclear annihilation.

The above summary does not do justice to Martyanov’s truly seminal book. I can only say that I consider this book as an absolutely indispensable “must read” for every person in the US who loves his/her country and for every person who believes that wars, especially nuclear ones, must be avoided at all costs. Just like many others (I think of Paul Craig Roberts), Martyanov is warning us that “the day of reckoning is upon us” and that the risks of war are very real, even if for most of us such an event is also unthinkable. Those in the US who consider themselves patriots should read this book with special attention, not only because it correctly identifies the main threat to the US, but also because it explains in detail what circumstances have resulted in the current crisis. Waving (mostly Chinese made) US flags is simply not an option anymore, neither is looking away and pretending that none of this is real. Martyanov’s book will also be especially interesting to those in the US armed forces who are observing the tremendous decline of US military power from inside. Who better than a former Soviet officer could not only explain, but also understand the mechanisms which have made such a decline possible?"

Greencrow says:  Martyanov blames the Neocon.  I will go further.  I say that the neocon have deliberately sabotaged the United States of America.  The dual citizens [Israeli/US] that infest the American government have deliberately looted and destroyed the country...set it up for defeat...ultimately to be cast aside, like a parasite casts aside the used-up carcass of a host and then moves on to another host. According to their agenda, the WWIII they are "gunning" for will be the "chaos" from which the final stage of their NWO will emerge...global tyranny.

Interesting, on a micro scale we had a similar situation here in BC.  I read in the paper this morning that a [likely drunken] motorcyclist crashed his motorcycle off the road into the ditch last night.  On the back of his vehicle was a woman who had apparently gone along for the "ride".  Both persons were lying in the ditch...she with a broken femur.  He took off his helmet and gloves...climbed out of the ditch and disappeared.  At time of writing he has not been found and has not been identified.

This is exactly the same mentality--"by deception" [cowardly] destroy, then abandon and disappear--that has left the United States hobbling around--in the ditch of military vulnerability.

UK GoodNews/Bad News Situation - Soccer Team winning...BUT that means Brits will want to travel to Russia

First the good newz.  The Brit Soccer team has made it through to the quarter finals in the Russian World Cup Championship.  Now the bad newz.  Young Brits will want to travel to Russia to see the ensuing games in even larger numbers than ever...thus making the games an unqualified success not only in the world at large...but also in little UK...former Empire but now reduced to sad, envious parasite without a new host to feed on.

What to do.  What to doooooooooo.

Well, we could try and grab headlines in an effort to scare Brits off from travelling to Russia in even larger numbers than have already committed to going.  We could resurrect the silly Alice in Wonderland fairytale about the Skripal park bench poisoning.

Even though rehashing the improbabilities of that scenario will very "highly likely" make England look more ridiculous than ever.

UK Soccer Player Harry Kane

Whatever stunt goes down...it won't stop the games going forward.  It won't stop England Sports History being played out in Russia. For the next week or so... Russia owns British sports history. lololol.  It was fun to watch the BBC, writhing and flopping like a salmon on a boat deck, strangely silent on its front pages... as players like Harry Kane [photo above] won the game against the Columbians.  Both teams [England and Columbia] played the dirtiest soccer seen in the championship.  But the Brits' dirty play prevailed.

Now, on Saturday, they will come up against the underdog Swedes.  My better half is a Swedish citizen.  It was I, years ago, who urged him to go through the bureaucratic paperwork necessary to reclaim his Swedish citizenship.  His Swedish passport now rests in a "secure location"....as a "Plan B" should the NAU ever happen during my lifetime.

So, you can imagine what team this household will be hoping for in Saturday's game.  I hope the Swedish coaching staff has watched the videos of the Columbia/England game to learn all the dirty techniques they will have to face....everything [hopefully] short of "Novichock" on a park [or team] bench.

Fourth of July Terror Plot foiled - by the same corrupt agency that put the would-be patsy up to it

Would-be Fourth of July

Terror Patsy Demetrius Pitts

Happy Fourth of July to my American readers and friends...particularly the intrepid American truth bloggers who blog perilously from Ground Zero of the War Against Truth and Justice.

Speaking of which...I have a photo of yet another victim of that war posted above.  This is a man by the name of Demetrius Pitts who was recently arrested on the spurious charges of planning a terror event to take place in Cleveland, Ohio on July 4th, 2018.  The problem with this arrest is that Mr. Pitts and his crime fit a well worn and traversed pathway of corrupt government agency terror plots.  These plots are hatched, fomented, paid for and supported by evil minds that now control "security" agencies like the FBI, CIA, RCMP and CSIS here in Canada.  In fact, Canadians are still waiting [it has been going on since July 1 of 2013] for the outcome of our very own Canadian terror patsy couple who were subjected to a plot that follows the now standardized fact pattern described in the report concerning Cleveland resident Demetrius Pitts  linked to HERE.  Blogger will not allow me to cut and paste from the actual article.  Here is a snippet from a CBS affiliate website:

Pitts was arrested Monday in connection to plotting an Independence Day attack in Cleveland, Ohio.

“There is nothing to suggest this individual was working in conjunction with anyone else and that seems to be fairly definitive at the moment,” said Philadelphia Police Commissioner Richard Ross.

Officials conceded it’s not known if Pitts was even capable of executing his plans, as laid out in detail by federal authorities.

“He apparently had some thoughts or designs on doing something here,” said Ross. “He was not able to do that.”

“I really want to thank the FBI and ATF and all those involved out in Ohio to get this guy off the street and alert us to what was coming,” said Kenney.

Ross says there’s no credible threats aimed at Philadelphia.

Gee.  Wonder if Mr. Pitts is developmentally/socially challenged...the way that our Canadian terror patsies are.  The worst part of knowing that your "security agencies" get their rocks off on targeting, setting up and framing the most vulnerable members of our society--in order to justify their exorbitant budgets--comprised from hard earned tax-payer dollars...is knowing that the entire "justice system" is in cahoots.  Even if the odd judge has the temerity to find the accused innocent...on grounds that they were "set up" [framed]...the Appeals Court will drag their feet for no less than going on THREE LONG YEARS...all the time the poor accused are unable to get on with their lives.

At least that's what has happened in Canada with our terror patsies.  I will be keeping an eye out for what is going to happen to Mr. Pitts.

But the entire corrupt caper supports what I have been arguing with an American colleague of mine.  The topic was my recent post Rumours of Truth.  The colleague was attacking the veracity of the seminar given by Lisa Pease on the documentary evidence linking the CIA [Angleton] and patsy Lee Harvey Oswald.  Apparently because Lisa has some dubious [according to the colleague] connections, THE EVIDENCE that she was presenting wasn't even worth consideration.  The colleague admitted to not having watched the video.

My argument was that it mattered not who presented the evidence, what their background was and/or what their motivation was.  The evidence, if it is genuine...i.e., if it was gleaned from authentic CIA documents as stated...should be able to stand on its own.  The devil himself could present it and it would still have the POWER to convict or exonerate the accused.

This is what Americans have forgotten or have been brainwashed to ignore.  With them, it's all about the personality.  That way, they can destroy the evidence simply by attacking the person who presents it.  I submit, on the contrary, that evidence is like a living testament from the dead victims of the murdering perpetrators.  It is their voice, crying out for justice from the grave.  In the United States those voices have been silenced.  There is no Justice in the United States.  The terrifying thing is that the evil that killed justice in the United States is like a cancer that has spread to Canada.

So in addition to the living Americans, I would like to wish a Happy July 4th to the hundreds of thousands of dead Americans like JFK, RFK, MLK and the victims of the 9/11 atrocity, all murder victims who are still seeking justice from the grave...in the form of evidence being disclosed through their mediums..like JFK assassination researcher, Lisa Pease.
