    Russia Under Attack

    By Paul Craig Roberts
    21 March, 2015


    While Washington works assiduously to undermine the Minsk agreement
    that German chancellor Merkel and French president Hollande achieved
    in order to halt the military conflict in Ukraine, Washington has sent
    Victoria Nuland to Armenia to organize a "color revolution" or coup
    there, has sent Richard Miles as ambassador to Kyrgyzstan to do the
    same there, and has sent Pamela Spratlen as ambassador to Uzbekistan
    to purchase that government's allegiance away from Russia. The result
    would be to break up the Collective Security Treaty Organization and
    present Russia and China with destabilization where they can least
    afford it. For details go here:

    Thus, Russia faces the renewal of conflict in Ukraine simultaneously
    with three more Ukraine-type situations along its Asian border.

    And this is only the beginning of the pressure that Washington is
    mounting on Russia.

    On March 18 the Secretary General of NATO denounced the peace
    settlement between Russia and Georgia that ended Georgia's military
    assault on South Ossetia. The NATO Secretary General said that NATO
    rejects the settlement because it "hampers ongoing efforts by the
    international community to strengthen security and stability in the
    region." Look closely at this statement. It defines the "international
    community" as Washington's NATO puppet states, and it defines
    strengthening security and stability as removing buffers between
    Russia and Georgia so that Washington can position military bases in
    Georgia directly on Russia's border.

    In Poland and the Baltic states Washington and NATO lies about a
    pending Russian invasion are being used to justify provocative war
    games on Russia's borders and to build up US forces in NATO military
    bases on Russia's borders.

    We have crazed US generals on national television calling for "killing
    Russians."

    The EU leadership has agreed to launch a propaganda war against
    Russia, broadcasting Washington's lies inside Russia in an effort to
    undermine the Russian people's support of their government.

    All of this is being done in order to coerce Russia into handing over
    Crimea and its Black Sea naval base to Washington and accepting
    vassalage under Washington's suzerainty.

    If Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, Assad, and the Taliban would not fold to
    Washington's threats, why do the fools in Washington think Putin, who
    holds in his hands the largest nuclear arsenal in the world, will
    fold?

    European governments, apparently, are incapable of any thought.
    Washington has set London and the capitals of every European country,
    as well as every American city, for destruction by Russian nuclear
    weapons. The stupid Europeans rush to destroy themselves in service to
    their Washington master.

    Human intelligence has gone missing if after 14 years of US military
    aggression against eight countries the world does not understand that
    Washington is lost in arrogance and hubris and imagines itself the
    ruler of the universe who will tolerate no dissent from its will.

    We know that the American, British, and European media are whores well
    paid to lie for their master. We know that the NATO commander and
    secretary general, if not the member countries, are lusting for war.
    We know that the American Dr. Strangeloves in the Pentagon and
    armaments industry cannot wait to test their ABMs and new weapons
    systems in which they always place excessive confidence. We know that
    the prime minister of Britain is a total cipher. But are the
    chancellor of Germany and the president of France ready for the
    destruction of their countries and of Europe? If the EU is of such
    value, why is the very existence of its populations put at risk in
    order to bow down and accept leadership from an insane Washington
    whose megalomania will destroy life on earth?

    Dr. Paul Craig Roberts was Assistant Secretary of the Treasury for
    Economic Policy and associate editor of the Wall Street Journal. He
    was columnist for Business Week, Scripps Howard News Service, and
    Creators Syndicate. He has had many university appointments. His
    internet columns have attracted a worldwide following. Roberts' latest
    books are The Failure of Laissez Faire Capitalism and Economic
    Dissolution of the West and How America Was Lost.
