Look up who Emmet Sweeney is and what his academic positions are on say, the existence of Atlantis. One more shinning example of the Putinist’s academic and intellectual standards. < /s >

Russia’s problem is its support of Hezbollah, FARC, PLFP, LTTE, the Haqqanis, and that ilk. And, it’s backing of Iran, Syria, North Korea, Cuba, Zimbabwe, and Nicaragua, in particular its aid to the nuclear programs of Syria, NK and Iran. Then there is its ever friendlier relationship with China.

The hardcore leftists in this country that have taken over the Democrat Party fully support the Russians in many different ways. Russia keeps giving them bribes and so do the Chinese, and in return these politicians provide some service to these countries, or they wouldn’t be getting the money. They have deployed what they learned from the Russians and Cubans to demoralize the US, and that includes promotion of anything and everything that undermines American strength. It is Russia that has promoted groups inside US such as the World Council of Churches and National Council of Churches which have long been damaging Christianity in the US, and they backed the environmental movement, anti ANWR, and anti pipeline protests. They may not like it when dumb Americans try to sneak drugs into Russia, but they are all for working with the cartels to encourage drug use here.

And Zalensky knows this. Hence his regular pandering to the “west’s” LGTQWTF dogma and pop culture stars.

Putin, Xi and Co. are only duping a small, noisy faction in the West.

THE TRUTH, THE *SECOND MOST EVIL AND DEMONIC PURPOSE and STRATEGIC PLAN OF THE RUSSIAN ORTHODOX CHURCH —

((Is everyone on FreeRepublic so stupid, insane, OR SOCIOPATHIC EVIL, as to either literally have no historical baseline literacy, or to believe this FSB/Kremlin/ROC Disinformation Campaign, or worse, to spread it ???

No wonder when the time comes, the world will so easily fall for, be led by, and worship THE ANTICHRIST!))

ROC is KGB-FSB

Breitbart —

“The Russian Orthodox Church (ROC) has been, since its reconstitution during WWII, an instrument of the state. The best illustration of this is probably the 1949 “Greetings from the clergy and laity of the Russian Orthodox Church to the leader of the nations of the USSR, the Generalissimus Joseph Stalin on his 70th birthday.”

It states, in part:

“Witnessing at every step your noble efforts to make people’s lives peaceful and happy, we see in your person not only a great statesman and leader, guiding the lives of people in a new direction of history, but also a fatherly, caring trustee of all aspects of our human existence with all its various needs.”

The Russian Orthodox patriarch at the time of Putin’s Easter show was patriarch Aleksi II, who died on December 5, 2008.

Lt. Gen. (r) Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest Soviet bloc official to defect to the United States, writes of Aleksi II, “The KGB had carried him under the codename ‘DROZDOV’ and awarded him its Certificate of Honor, as was learned from a KGB archive accidentally left behind in Estonia.”

*Additionally, we know more from “original KGB documents known as the Mitrokhin Archive (described by the FBI as the most complete and extensive intelligence ever received from any source).” We also know more “from Politburo documents released by Father Gleb Yakunin, vice chairman of a Russian parliamentary commission that investigated the KGB’s manipulation of the church.”

And with those details in hand, the “election” of a new patriarch in 2009 was quite a sight to behold:

On January 27, 2009, the 700 Synod delegates assembling in Moscow were indeed presented with a slate listing three candidates.

All, however, belonged to the secret KGB army:

Metropolitan Kirill of Smolensk worked for the KGB under the code name “MIKHAYLOV”;

Metropolitan Filaret of Minsk has just been identified as having labored for the KGB under the codename “OSTROVSKY”;

Metropolitan Kliment of Kaluga was recently discovered to have been listed under the codename “TOPAZ”.

When the bells at Christ the Savior Cathedral in Moscow announced that a new patriarch had been elected, Metropolitan Kirill, aka “MIKHAYLOV,” proved to be the winner.

Presumably, the KGB/FSB considered him to be in a better position to carry out its tasks abroad, where he had directed his efforts during most of his professional life.

In 1971, the KGB had sent him to Geneva (Switzerland) as a representative of the Russian Orthodox Church to the [RCC led] World Council of Churches (WCC), the largest international *ecumenical organization after the Vatican, representing some 550 million “Christians” of various denominations throughout 120 countries.

His task was to use his position in the [RCC led] WCC to spread the doctrine of Liberation Theology—a Marxist religious movement born in the KGB—throughout Latin America. [To in time be led by *Jorge Mario Bergoglio, who had been oneM of two instrumental in the KGB’s injection of Liberation Theology and Social Marxism at Vatican II - who is now Pope Francis!]

In 1975, the KGB had infiltrated [agent] “MIKHAYLOV” into the WCC’s central committee, and in 1989 the KGB had appointed him chairman of the Russian patriarchate’s foreign relations as well —positions he still held when he was “elected” Patriarch.

Indeed, in his acceptance speech “MIKHAYLOV” announced that he would establish religious television channels in Russia that would broadcast abroad.

Kirill/“MIKHAYLOV” recently attacked the “Godless” Ukrainians – though, according to one journalist (a recipient of the Blessed Karol Wojtyla [Pope John Paul II] prize for excellence in journalism dealing with religious themes), “25% of the population attends Easter services in Ukraine compared to 2% in Russia.”

In November, Kirill/“MIKHAYLOV” asked that Russians “remember positive achievements of the Soviet period.”

ROC FURTHER REVEALED —

The Real ROC has been a powerful instrument of the NKVD/KGB/FSB for over a century —

Worse, neither KGB ROC Patriarch Kirill (Vladimir Mikhailovich Gundyayev), nor his KGB predecessor Alexy II (Alexey Mikhailovich Ridiger), were able to subordinate the UA Orthodox church under Putin’s regime.

The ROC has been, and is a very powerful and useful political instrument, from its various statist purposes of political control, FSB societal manipulation and surveillance, and manipulation and interfacing with the statist RCC and WCC -

KGB/FSB ROC - what it really is, for those who actually desire TO KNOW THE TRUTH, and get a bit closer to understanding what we are really seeing now —

*******

*NOW Roman Catholic “Church” and Russian Orthodox “Church” RELATIONSHIP REVEALED —

A Team of Global Strategic Manipulation between current ROC, RCC, WEF —

Putin has successfully tied the ROC to a former KGB Marxist 1960’s priest named *Jorge Mario Bergoglio (Now Pope Francis) of the RCC and to the World Counsel of Churches, even while “Francis” has on the surface, partially distanced himself due to Putin/Ukraine optics and survival.

*******

Just as significantly benefited Moscow through the Kremlin directed U-1 and *Skolkavo Projects, Clinton-Obama acted to replace and install the KGB’s longtime Humanist, Marxist Globalist, Social Marxist proponent RCC-ROC buddy and WCC Pope “Francis” -

And YES, the current Roman Catholic and Rissian Orthodox leaders are TIED directly to German born Leninist and Putin Bosom Buddy Klause Schwab

https://www.fromrome.info/2021/08/18/vatican-ii-revolution-tied-directly-to-klaus-schwab-of-the-great-reset/ *

Pope Francis was literally at “Ground Zero” of the KGB’s secular humanist injection of “Liberation Theology” into the already state run Warsaw Pact Catholicand Orthodox churches, AS WELL AS the development and effort to spread “Liberation theology” and “Social Justice/Social Marxism” within the Roman Catholic Church’s influence and guidance of the World Council of Churches.

This was critical to the KGB’s plan, to neutralize and “capture” the Western Denomination members within the World Counsel of Churches, and to spread the racism and societal division and breakdown called for in Marxist Revolution, and to necessarily destroy Western and American society by creating A-moral and pervasive sexual perversion throughout Western societies.

As was Gorbachev and his leadership of the Supreme Soviet, and Communist Internationale, (and UN), Putin himself has long been an admitted and strong global governance proponent and friend, and interfaced with multiple descendants of the Rothchild and Payseur families, as well as with another of their pawns Klause Schwab, as is Xi, but see themselves as ascendant over the KGB-FSB RCC/ROC/WCC humanist manipulated structure — as do other financiers within the EU, as well as certain leftists within the US.

(Dr. Carol Quigley’s, Tragedy & Hope, 1966, [Dr. Carol Quigley called out by Bill Clinton in his 1st SoU as being his mentor and single greatest influence], on the established Global Socialist Order, 3 blocs of 5 possible necessary global geopolitical divisions alrrady determined within the 20th or early 21st Century - with already decided conclusion of rebel’s, the worst being America, and necessary trajectory to imminent global socialist governance subordination [1966])

Ukraine is territorially a mere necessary stepping stone, with an independent minded people in need of possible future *Re-subordination of it’s resources and “people as resources bloc” (as was the USA) to a geopolitical division of what is currently Putin’s (or possible post Putin) 22.5 million km square CIS block, and its greater Russian/Chinese/Iranian/Korean aligned axis block, implied/discusssed within Dr. Quigley’s recorder position within the centralized global government plan, and in his “recorder” dissertation.🇺🇸🎚

Correct. Though I think church MEMBERSHIP in Russia is very high, maybe almost a super majority of the population identifying as members of the Russian Orthodox Church, only 7% actually attend church monthly.

Orthodoxy, as a rule, is cultural and national, not spiritual and actual. It’s like people in Mexico automatically saying they’re Catholic but Mexico still sucks with rape, prostitution, drugs, corruption, etc., with the exception that larger numbers of Mexicans attend church and go through the motions of their religion while Russians don’t bother.

I guess the alternative you have is a bunch of bullshit about biolabs and other nonsense "forcing" Russia to invade. But then you'd have to produce literal Russian disinformation to come close to proving it, which wouldn't resolve the problem of Russia's war preparations on the border going back an entire year (or more) before the invasion. Was Russia aware of the biolabs more than a year ago? Why wait to invade then? And why use all its trolls to lie to the public that no invasion would occur?

Russia is obviously anti NWO and the depravity that NWO promotes and represents. Pretty simple to see and understand.

Democrats sympathize and collude with the real Russia in many ways—not the fake Russia presented to us in Russian propaganda. Same with the Chinese government. The Democrats just don’t want to be invaded, occupied or ruled by the foreign communists. As with the foreign communist governments, Democrats want more socialist control over the people on their own turf.

Russia is a country of deepest depravity.

For example they have the highest abortion rate in the world.

https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/abortion-rates-by-country

Russia 53.7

Ukraine 27.5

USA 20.8

Russia had no choice because a###### NATO has become costco where any UTTERLY WORTHLESS country with NO benefits to the US can join for 35 dollars.

How would you feel if Russia made a treaty with mexico to defend it if we decided to have b.lls and destroy their cartels?

Or make a mile wide buffer at the border?

Sucks to have to answer honestly

ukraine was/ a corrupt cesspool. Now it’s the freedom capital of the world to 80 and 90 year olds who are still fighting the cold war.

"I guess the alternative you have is a bunch of bullshit..."

What it is, God knows, but what I will not do is side with the current occupant of the Whitehouse, nor the thieves in both Houses, nor their Pretorian Guards in the FBI, CIA, IRS, ATF, etc., ad nauseum, nor any of them that are pressing NATO up against the borders of Russia, nor firing American Himars into nuclear power plants pretending Russia is doing it.

Jeff Nyquist discusses much of the KGB and Communist infiltration of the Russian Orthodox Church, how it was used to spread liberation theology, and how it is now used for propaganda in Russia. And, how it is now used for cover for Russian spies.
