If you know how to use sociology its very powerful.

Its no accident many great Austrian economists were sociologists aswell, probably one of the most underrated fields ever. Got a bad rep due to it attracting many morons that cant grasp even half of it.

Is is assumable that all this shit goes down even if Ukraine joined the EU? Would it have made a difference?

If so, what would the collapse of the banks of a country of 46 million do to the Euro?

The Russians simply need to start using the correct language, you know " protecting our interests", fighting for "freedom and democracy" etc. etc.

 

This U.S. drones/kills people collecting firewood in foreign countries using such language...

the bottom line is the only thing that can possibly save the western world is the initiation of a massive capacity destruction event. they are carefully lining up the proper groundwork. putin nor china will take the bait.

 

yes, the eu and the usa have rubber balls. china and russia have the steel ones.

Anybody remember the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia? Gluing Crimea to the Ukraine was another exercise of Communist era politics. What about Syria, Iraq, Jordan, nation states invented by the British? Of course once political and bureaucratic networks are established they become sacrosanct. It doesn't matter if it makes no sense. Political thugs never want to give an inch, they just want more. Well it doesn't matter until things fall completely apart and/or fighting breaks out.

The nation state model is broken, obsolete. Small countries can do quite well. There's no shortage of educated skilled people or capital for worthwhile ventures. Correction, there shouldn't be shortages of capital. The ever growing engines of corruption and consumption being by the current status quo combined with increasingly confiscatory Imperialism 2.0 are resulting in shortages.

But hey, it's a matter of priorities. Resources must go to western governments and banking cartels first. Then western stock markets and government contractors and unions and so on down the food chain to drip feed for the lumpenproles.

I suspect that the powers to be will be trying to create a third problem area for Russia in addition to Syria and the Ukraine.

These bastads are intent on "solving" the world's problems with more problems like they try to solve the debt problem with more debt.

"My good friends, for the second time in our history a British Prime Minister has returned from Germany bringing peace with honour. I believe it is peace for our time." (Chamberlain's reference to Beaconsfield's return from the Congress of Berlin in 1878)

"we have passed an awful milestone in our history, when the whole equilibrium of Europe has been deranged, and that the terrible words have for the time being been pronounced against the Western democracies: "Thou art weighed in the balance and found wanting". And do not suppose that this is the end. This is only the beginning of the reckoning. This is only the first sip, the first foretaste of a bitter cup which will be proffered to us year by year unless by a supreme recovery of moral health and martial vigour, we arise again and take our stand for freedom as in the olden time."   Winston Churchill, denouncing the Agreement in the House of Commons

 

I couldn't follow the press conference, did "peace for our time" get cobbled together ?
