“The
Western press begins its narrative on the Crimea situation with the
annexation, but completely ignores the provocations by the West and
other causal factors which resulted in the annexation. This
distortion of reality is artificially creating an hysteria about
Russian aggressiveness, another distortion which could pose an
exceptionally dangerous situation for the world, if acted upon by
other nations. The US Congress is responding to the distortions, not
to the reality.”
“Tensions
between Russia and the US are being fueled every day by players who
would benefit financially from a resumption of the Cold War which,
from 1948 to 1991 cost US taxpayers $20 TRILLION dollars (in 2014
dollars), an amount exceeding our $18 trillion National Debt.”
“Tomorrow
[3/12] the US House will debate and vote on H. Res. 758 which is
tantamount to a ‘Declaration of Cold War’ against Russia,
reciting a host of grievances, old and new, against Russia which
represent complaints that Russia could well make against the US,
given our nation’s most recent military actions: Violating
territorial integrity, violations of international law, violations of
nuclear arms agreements.”
“The
resolution demands Russia to be isolated and for 'the President, in
consultation with Congress, to conduct a review of the force posture,
readiness and responsibilities of United States Armed Forces and the
forces of other members of NATO to determine if the contributions and
actions of each are sufficient to meet the obligations of
collective self-defense [my emphasis] under Article 5 of the
North Atlantic Treaty, and to specify the measures needed to remedy
any deficiencies…' In other words, ‘let’s get ready for war
with Russia.’”
