NYT Finally Admits "The International Community" Does Not Stand With US (War Vampires) On Ukraine
Twitter ^ | 2/23/2023 | Glenn Greenwald

Posted on 02/23/2023 8:28:37 PM PST by frithguild

From the start of the war in Ukraine, the US media continuously claimed "the international community" is united behind the US (that phrase always means: W. Europe and whatever countries happen to side with the US).

Today, the NYT recognizes the truth:https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/02/23/world/russia-ukraine-geopolitics.html

A couple of key paragraphs from the NYT story that deflates and debunks the inspiring and from-the-start obviously false fairy tale that "the international community" was united with the US in support of Ukraine: ***

The WashPost has a very similar concession this morning. While all the usual DC militarism advocates -- people like @BillKristol, @DavidFrum and @Mattduss -- pen homages to the diplomatic genius of Biden, the headline of the Post article tells a far different story: ***

A staple of left-wing foreign policy is the valorization of the "Global South" (for good reason: I share the view that they matter more than is recognized).

Yet as both papers say, the "Global South" rejects support for the US view of Ukraine, yet the US left ignores this.

A major reason the US liberal-left in DC is *unanimous* in support of Biden's war policies -- even as the left all over the world is divided to hostile -- is lingering anger toward Russia because of the view they helped defeat Hillary. It's utter madness but it's how they think.

Fundamentally it’s about NATO and red lines, and globalist goals for a de-populated Earth.
NATO is a dangerous anachronism left over from the Cold War.
Not long after the Cold War fell apart, NATO was re-purposed to fight “terrorism”, most of which we now understand was concocted and secretly supported by our own CIA, especially in regards to Al Qaeda and ISIS.
This for the purpose of maintaining a state of perpetual conflict involving US forces and/or materials, which is where the big money is to be found.

We’ve known for decades that NATO in Ukraine is a red line for Russia.
The CIA/neocons crossed the red line by installing a puppet government in Ukraine, which proceeded to seek NATO membership.
Ukrainian membership in NATO would have put nuclear/biological weapons on the border of Russia.

They slapped the shit out of the bear and now it’s on the warpath.
They want all the war they can get and all the population reduction they can get.
They intend to live as kings while the greatly reduced population of Earth serve as their slaves.
They just need to get the numbers down to something manageable.
Putin has to defend Russia from NATO while not giving the vultures the mass extinction they seek.
Our enemy is here, not over there.

“What am I missing?”

With the 17th Amendment, we end up supporting Ukraine.

Reading my own summary, it finally sunk in on me that they will have their war one way or the other.
The neocons will initiate a nuclear strike on Russia if they fail to provoke a nuclear strike from same.
They have to, or else give up on their new world order.
But there is no going back for them, they have burned every bridge in their deceit and treachery.
Either they rule or they will be dismembered in the street, ultimately.
They know they can’t lift their foot off the pedal.

Hillary was the one who was supposed to preside over the great slaughter/sacrifice, originally.
Maybe they will find a way to shoe horn her in.
Such as, Joe resigns or drops dead(er), Kamalala appoints Hillary VP, then something happens to remove Kamalala and there you are, the head witch in her seat of power.

When the POTUS nuclear codes are activated for an initiating strike, the US Air Force and Navy will have a decision to make.
This situation is far beyond the scope of what the Founding Fathers could have envisioned.
We are in undiscovered territory.
Aint’ it fun?

The “undiscovered territory” will be revealed when Russia uses a small “tactical nuke” on Kyiv.

All this bluster from Biden (& Co.) will end suddenly...

The United States uses the Ukraine as a place to conduct otherwise illegal activities. That’s the true reason why our government is behaving the wah it is in the defence of Ukraine.

What illegal activities? Money laundering. Medical experiments.

Someone on FreeRepublic please explain to me what dog does the US have in the fight over there? I don’t get it, we have a 100 billion dollars to spare to send weapons over there, but we can’t maintain our own railroad system.

Yesterday the United Nations General Assembly voted on a resolution that demands that Russia leave Ukraine. While the majority of countries voted in favor of the resolution those who voted against or abstained (including China, India, Pakistan, Iran, South Africa) represent nearly half of the global population.

That part of the world is also responsible for 90% of the stupidity on the planet.

, for one, am glad to see the Neocons finally get spanked.

I'll be glad when their skulls get stomped in and their skinless bodies hung after getting get dragged through the streets.

Reprisals are in order.

And what is the economic impact of this “international community”?

In the most recent UN vote on the war in the Ukraine, 140 nations voted with the US position, vs. 6 with Russia.

Ukraine and Russia are two dictatorships. Ukraine has a better press. They do money laundering for western politicians. We should not be involved at all.
McConnell and Pelosi and Romney and Biden etc are making millions and they do not care who is killed or wounded.
