The Most Essential Lesson Of History That No One Wants To Admit

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Submitted by Thad Beversdorf via First Rebuttal blog,

Ron Paul wrote an eye opening article recently about some legislation that was just signed in Congress, namely H. Res. 758.  In the article Dr. Paul explains the purpose of the resolution.  It’s not a new law but provides a basis of facts that will be relied on for future action.  So essentially the resolution purports that Russia behaved badly in various ways and by way of signing H. Res. 758 each congressman was indicating their agreement that the propositions contained therein are factual.  Now just because a group of obnoxiously arrogant A-holes stand around in a tax-revenue financed chamber and say “yeah” to several assertions does not make those assertions factual, but here in the United Orwellian States of America it kinda does.  Because those assertions that were voted to be fact (similar to the First Council of Nicaea) will now be written as factual history and taught to our children as having happened that way.  The very same way we all attained our ideas of American superiority.

The dishonesty and ignorance it creates is reason enough not to do such things, however, the real stinker of it is, as Dr. Paul so clearly points out, the sole purpose of H. Res. 758 is simply a pouring of the legal  foundation for something much more substantive.  You see this is how wars begin.  And the wheels for this particular war have been in motion for many years now.  We’ve been told our actions heretofore are simply a necessary response to the Ukraine situation.  However, those who can objectively look at the Ukraine situation will realize the US sponsored coup in Ukraine was simply a spark to light the fuse of a much larger detonation.

Now I understand many at this point are thinking “yep another conspiracy theory, why can’t it ever just be the US government thinks what they are doing is best for Americans”?  And it can, it just never is anymore and perhaps ever was.  Lies are told and public opinion is manipulated.  For war must be every bit good theatre in the press, as good strategy on the ground.  It is the theatre that makes war so ugly.  Fighting a war for what one believes in is unfortunate and brutal but fighting for lies and deceit to an end that benefits only those telling the lies is a type of ugliness most of us cannot comprehend.  It is only in the world ruled by sociopaths where such things can happen.  Allow me to offer some facts many don’t know about how it came to be that we invaded Iraq and Syria as the truth is still very much hidden from common knowledge.

We had a tragic start within the first two years of the new millennium.  That event actually seemed to bring the world together.  However, very quickly it turned into a launching pad for war.  One might think well that’s reasonable to expect given the tragedy that took place in New York.  A mighty nation like America is going to get retribution to those responsible.  And I agree with that.  I was one of the many who wanted to see retribution to those responsible.  However, we abandoned the attack on those responsible to initiate a war that had been in the works for many years.

It is pretty common knowledge at this point we pulled out of Afghanistan to push our forces and objectives toward Iraq. Now to get the world onboard with this, as we now know, the US created incredible lies about Iraq not only having some connection to 9/11 but that they were also building enormous stockpiles of ‘Weapons of Mass Destruction’ and that they were hell bent on using those against western nations.  Again, we now know that none of these assertions were true.  And we know our legislators were aware that no credible evidence existed to support such views.  And we know that despite knowing those assertions were false they still made the decision to lie not only to the American people but to the world.  The lies were told in an effort to build support so that parents around the world would see a righteous cause that they were sending their sons and daughters to their potential deaths or to be maimed in unimaginably horrifying circumstances.

Now I want you to think about that for a moment and don’t just read over that and move on.  Because this is the essence of what our government has become in America today.  They knowingly lied to the world so that the world would be willing to sacrifice their children, believing it was a necessary and righteous cause to do so.  And in the end the truth came to light that there was no righteous cause.  That all these young men and women from around the world had been used as pawns to fulfill the ambitions of a few.  It is truly one of the ugliest atrocities to ever have been carried out by an elected government against its own citizens.  And yet today because of our state edited media, most will not acknowledge that such an atrocity took place.  So I want to make very clear that Iraq was not a consequence of poor intelligence or bad decisions in the wake of post 9/11 emotions.  The invasions of both Iraq and Syria were being planned and discussed for many years before 9/11.  It is imperative to understand such things.  Because while we cannot change history, we must use history to change the future.  And I will add a note here because of the complexities of discussing Israel in a public forum.  The immediately following should not be misconstrued as an indictment of Israel for it is America that is responsible for America’s actions.  Now please carry on.

In 1996 the Prime Minister of Israel, Netanyahu, sponsored an ad hoc think tank called The Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies’ “Study Group on a New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000.”  From this think tank came a report that was the beginning of a powerful lobby movement.  Let’s take a close look at a few main points that come from the 1996 report.

Israel’s quest for peace emerges from, and does not replace, the pursuit of its ideals. The Jewish people’s hunger for human rights — burned into their identity by a 2000-year old dream to live free in their own land — informs the concept of peace and reflects continuity of values with Western and Jewish tradition.

 

Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq — an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right — as a means of foiling Syria’s regional ambitions.

 

Syria challenges Israel on Lebanese soil. An effective approach, and one with which American can sympathize, would be if Israel seized the strategic initiative along its northern borders by engaging Hizballah, Syria, and Iran, as the principal agents of aggression in Lebanon, including by:

  • striking Syria’s drug-money and counterfeiting infrastructure in Lebanon, all of which focuses on Razi Qanan. 
  • paralleling Syria’s behavior by establishing the precedent that Syrian territory is not immune to attacks emanating from Lebanon by Israeli proxy forces. 
  • striking Syrian military targets in Lebanon, and should that prove insufficient, striking at select targets in Syria proper.

To anticipate U.S. reactions and plan ways to manage and constrain those reactions, Prime Minister Netanyahu can formulate the policies and stress themes he favors in language familiar to the Americans by tapping into themes of American administrations during the Cold War which apply well to Israel. If Israel wants to test certain propositions that require a benign American reaction, then the best time to do so is before November, 1996.

But who would have authored such a report?  A report that seems to promote the idea of constraining, manipulating and achieving a benign american reaction.  Well have a look at the authors of this document below.  They should be familiar to most of you as they are US not Israeli policymakers, which is odd because again this is an Israeli state sponsored project with objectives that are clearly focused on the well being of Israel, not the US or the  American people.

Now subsequent to that 1996 report being released there was a letter drafted and sent to President Clinton in January 1998 that provides us some additional clarity on the war policies of the new millennium.  Let’s have a look at that.

Again we see a very explicit and aggressive lobby effort to persuade the US to invade Iraq.  Now I’m sure you’ll find these authors even more interesting.  Many of the same authors of the 1996 recommendation are also authors of this lobby effort.  Only this time they are acting as benefactors of America.  Odd though that they are pushing the very same agenda that just 18 months earlier these same folks were pushing as benefactors to a foreign nation.  It almost seems as though the authors are indeed attempting to manage and constrain the American people’s reaction, as discussed in the first report, to their desired recommendations that US use its military to engage various nations in war.  I’ve attached the list of authors here as well.

Screen Shot 2014-12-06 at 12.52.49 PM

Let’s think about this rationally for a moment.  In 1996 we had a foreign government sponsor a think tank staffed by very prominent US policymakers with the objective benefiting that foreign sponsor nation.  And then two years later we see a follow on letter to the President from not only the same US policymakers that authored the 1996 report but now had additional prominent US policymakers.  The recommendation of both the ’96 report and ’98 letter to the President were lobbying for the US to invade and overthrow Iraq and Syria.  However the original recommendation was for the benefit of Israel and the latter recommendation was being sold as necessary for America.  And remember, 9/11 had not happened yet but we already see these very powerful, very prominent policymakers pushing very hard to invade Iraq and Syria.

The problem is Americans didn’t want another Iraqi war.  Times were good in the late 1990′s.  People were happy.  The cold war was over, jobs were a plenty and the world felt safer than it had for decades.  And as such, there was no way Americans were going to war for the benefit of a foreign nation. The US had decided Hussein was actually a stabilizing force there in the middle east and as such we wanted him there.  But then an election happened and little Bush was elected president.  Along with him came all those names we just saw authoring the two dossiers recommending the US invade Iraq and Syria.  The authors were given titles such as Chair of the Defense Policy Board (Richard Perle) and Secretary of Defense (Rumsfeld), etc.   And so all of a sudden the same group of people who were championing the invasion of Iraq and Syria back in the late 1990′s were now in a position to make it happen by way of their own authority.  What luck!  Shortly thereafter the worst attack on US soil took place in New York and the rest is, as they say, history.

To believe we went into Iraq because our fearless and integrity driven leaders truly and honestly believed it was the morally and justifiable thing to do based on the tragedy of 9/11 is just ignorance.  There was a small group of men, called Neocons, that had derived these military actions some 10 years prior to operations themselves and some 5 years prior to the events that were used to sell these war efforts to the American people and the world.  None of that can we change.  And so my ultimate point here is to learn from what happened with Syria and Iraq and to show you it is exactly what is happening with Russia today.

Let me introduce a letter written by Bill Kristol and Donald Kagan to the Heads of State and Government Of the European Union and NATO.  The letter was signed by many but of particular interest are many of the same names from the 1996 report and 1998 letter to President Clinton pushing for war against Iraq and Syria.  This 2004 letter does not mince its words.  It is very much pushing for European support of a what would obviously be a US military stand off with Russia.  The letter is sponsored by the American Enterprise Institute, which is a neoconservative think tank.  In fact, one of the prestigious awards handed out by the AEI is called the Irving Kristol award.  Irving Kristol (father to Bill Kristol) is known as the godfather of the neocon movement in the US.  So again this is essentially the same crowd from ’96 an ’98, pushing for support of a US military operation, this time with Russia.  This is back in 2004 mind you before the current events in Ukraine had even been imagined (signatories of the attached letter can be found here).

Screen Shot 2014-12-06 at 5.02.58 PM

Again we see the aggressive recommendations to back a military operation many years before the catalyst event takes place.  That is the event that is being sold as the moral justification for a military operation.  But this letter tells us that this military objective against Russia has been promoted for many many years now, far before Ukraine was an issue.  This is again, a push from the same folks that lied to us about Iraq and then trained, equipped and funded ISIS in order to get into Syria and are now working hard to create a catalyst for an offensive with Russia.

For years before 9/11 it was determined by those warmongering policymakers that we would be invading Iraq and Syria.  All we needed was a catalyst.  9/11 provided that for Iraq.  ISIS provided that for Syria and now Ukraine has provided that for Russia.  I’m not saying these folks had anything to do with 9/11 because I have no idea.  What we do know is that 9/11 was used as a catalyst to lie to the American people about the need to invade Iraq.  It has also been fully admitted by our government that we did in fact, train, equip and fund ISIS, ‘mistakenly though’.  And finally we have recordings of senior US diplomats discussing our involvement in the coup in Ukraine.

And so one can only conclude here that again Americans are being manipulated to accept the recommendations from a powerful group of warmongering policymakers to go to war with a nation that has posed absolutely no threat to the American people in more than 25 years.  And we are being led down this path by lies and propaganda.  Quite specifically things like H. Res. 758.  And if we do not make a stand against these policymakers we are most certainly headed for what could very well be the war to end all wars.

For the West is clearly looking to fortify its power hold over the world by destroying Russia economically to disable them militarily in an effort to prevent a Sino-Soviet alliance.  I recently watched a presentation by former World Bank President, James Wolfensohn, to a political science class at Stanford University.  The moral to his story (and I use that ironically) was to challenge them to figure out a way, in the face of a rising East soon to control a higher share of the worlds assets than the West, to retain the West’s global control.  He stressed it was something his generation  did not have to deal with but that today’s Western up and coming political class must consider.  You see China is a powerful nation but without an alliance with Russia, China can be contained due its lack of energy.  Because China is both a more difficult opponent and one that has much more trade with the US, Russia is the obvious target to prevent a fully formed Sino-Soviet alliance.

 However, I cannot imagine a scenario where China does not clearly identify such a strategy being played out.  And so they will come to the defense of Russian energy, as we’ve already seen with the signings of the world’s largest energy deals between those two nations.   The Chinese defense will not be limited to economic if push comes to shove.  And we will be put in the midst of the most powerful nations in the history of the world fighting for ultimate power.  This small group of horrible people are willing to put the world on the line so their lineage can continue to rule the world while the rest of us struggle to simply stop the financial bleeding that has become a 15 year epidemic.  This all sounds like the stuff of fiction novels but unfortunately the facts tell us this is all too real.  What is hard for me to believe is that we so readily ignore and deny the most essential lessons of history.  Perhaps the foremost being that the political class will always be willing to sacrifice the working class in order to retain its power.  And so we find ourselves again on the precipice of being asked by our political class to offer our young men and women up to be sacrificed for the ‘greater cause’.  However, while they try to convince you the cause is one of morals and righteousness, in the end, it is the same cause it has been since post WWII and some will argue the same cause it has always been, which is for their interests and their victories, not ours.

That wasn't Jew bashing.  Millions of Jews are gonna die with the rest of us in WWIII.  These tyrants in the article probably have safe islands all situated to ride out the global radiation storm coming.

Can we call them something more accurate than neocons?  There is nothing conservative about them and the neo part is just stupid.  Traitors.  Traitors to their nation and their race (human).  That should suffice to try and then hang them.

WW3 can be prevented by removing the need for it, i.e. by removing its underlying fanatical ideology that's going on a few thousand years old.

You do this with some well-placed e=mc2 events in the ME, as it would forever remove the places of "Eternal Relevance" and turn them into "Eternal Irrelevance", since it all has to do with "My deity can beat your deity".  You vaporize the alleged seats of each side, and so much for "My deity is #1".  No more effort than that is required, no WW3 nonsense, no Armageddon nonsense.

"…one cannot separate violence from the state conceived as an apparatus of class domination: from the standpoint of the oppressed, the very existence of a state is a violent fact (in the same sense in which Robespierre claimed there was no need to prove that the king had committed any crime, since the very existence of the king was a crime in itself, an offense against the freedom of the people). In this sense, every act of violence against the state on the part of the oppressed is ultimately “defensive.” Not to concede this point is, nolens volens, the “normalize” the state and accept that its own acts of violence are merely contingent excesses to be dealt with through democratic reforms. This is why the standard liberal motto - that violence is never legitimate, even though it may sometimes be necessary to resort to it - is insufficient. From a radical emancipatory perspective, this formula should be reversed: for the oppressed, violence is always legitimate (since their very status is the result of the violence they are exposed to), but never necessary (it will always be a matter of strategy whether or not to use violence against the enemy)."

Violence leads to statism, as statism is nothing more than organized violence. 

 

If he were truly worth reading and following, things such as this would not be so obviously self-evident. Enough quoting primitive based simpletons that merely wish to be in power themselves by recognizing political power as something other than enforced violence. If you follow morons, what does that make you?

"Violence leads to statism, as statism is nothing more than organized violence"

yes, the state is an answer to violence, and a monopoly on violence. but the original violence that led to the state did not come from the state

pirates organize spontanuously, for example, warlords too. history is full of wandering hordes. put yourself for one moment in the mocassins of the indigenous populations of America when the first white settlers came, and ask yourself if their non-coordinated approach was anything you'd call... successful

I find anarchic criticism very good, but when it lapses in dogma... it loses it's sight on how human really are

Iraq, Syria and Russia were targets and events were fabricated to provide an excuse for war. The 0.1% have more wealth than the bottom 90% in the land of the free today.  More wars will only consolidate the grip on power of the 0.1% as the 90% do the dying for false flag wars:

9/11 provided that for Iraq.

Everyone with half a functioning brain knows that 9/11 was false-flag: 

Former Italian President and the man who revealed the existence of Operation Gladio, Francesco Cossiga, has gone public on 9/11, telling Italy’s most respected newspaper that the attacks were run by the CIA and Mossad and that this was common knowledge amongst global intelligence agencies.

Cossiga was elected President of Italian Senate in July 1983 before being winning a landslide 1985 election to become President of the country in 1985.

Cossiga gained respect from opposition parties as one of a rare breed – an honest politician – and led the country for seven years until April 1992.

Cossiga’s tendency to be outspoken upset the Italian political establishment and he was forced to resign after revealing the existence of, and his part in setting up, Operation Gladio – a rogue intelligence network under NATO auspices that carried out bombings across Europe in the 60?s, 70?s and 80?s.

The fact remains, however, that the US, the major European powers, and their regional allies all previously lent financial, military and political support to ISIS and similar groups, which have “Made in the USA” stamped all over them. They have, until now, played a significant part in Washington’s efforts to overthrow the regime of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria, as part of a broader effort to gain control of the region’s vast energy resources and transit routes.

US spent $5 billion to destabilize Ukraine

The protests in the western Ukraine are organized by the CIA, the US State Department, and by Washington- and EU-financed Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) that work in conjunction with the CIA and State Department.

Manpower, industrial base, plus I don't strictly believe it is China/Russia.  There are the South American countries, Mexico, India, Pakistan, Iran, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Indonesia, Australia, New Zealand etc. etc.

All of these nations have a horse in the race.  Reasonable to assume they will not simply sit back and let the more powerful nations steamroll them.

By picking sides they would be able to attempt to maintain a semblance of sovereignty, and back an outcome.

The dollar system has run it's course, the money printed no longer has real assets, real wealth, it can buy, all of the world's assets are already in the dollar system, thus any new printed dollars are so much ass wipe. In these circumstances, only world war will suffice to maintain the hegemony of the USA based on dollars. So yes, world war is coming. The USA and West have no real need for a bankrupt backward rump of a Ukraine, a failed state, a sick society rotting in the evil of fascism. The real Kiev coup was to force Russia's hand into defending their borders and offering a pretext for a European war of destruction. A war the EU will lose and Russia will lose, but the USA will win, we will reset the clock to 1950. Israeli will be free to expand into it's desired greater Israeli, and the USA will have the world to offer the 1%.

Warning to parents, if you really want to send your kids to die in the 1% 'ers war, you are fools of extraordinary stupidity. This is the last chance Americans have to become real men and women, either stand up now and throw the Neocons out, or the rest is history. The next congress is rife with warmongers and tools of the military industrial spy complex. You voted them in, I dare you to come back in 12 months and defend your votes.

I attempted a conversation with a guy at work about how fucked up it all has gotten: Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria - endless wars, CIA involvement, drones, etc. Maybe just a quick 30 second, calm, matter-of-fact recitation. I never say such things and I am his boss so he kinda feels obligated to have a listen.

His response was eye opening. It was something like "I don't care, just as long as things hold together". This guy is in his early 50's with 2 kids between 7 and 12. He is s nice guy, hard worker, but would rather keep his head in the sand. He like many others knows that the economy is weak and teetering. Our company laid him off once briefly about 20 years ago before I started there.

He doesn't know what is going on (really none of us do, but at least there are those that try to comprehend) and doesn't want to know. He wants to be able to remain in a fantasy that the USA is good and just and that everything is going to be all right no matter how many have to die.

My sister, a teacher, is the same way. I tried to warn her about the destruction of the education system 10 years ago when her district still had a slim chance. She didn't want to know. Now she is often in tears over what she could have helped prevent had she informed herself and done something sooner. Now it's too late to reform without taking down first, apathy is very expensive. She used to be a teacher, now a glorified babysitter.

Smedley Butler U.S.M.C. Major General:  "War is a racket".

China has already won the war.  The U.S. doesn't have the manufacturing capacity to build ground forces or field a land army to compete with China; and we don't have the guts to pull the nuke trigger.

Another 10 years and it will all be over; China will dictate and the U.S. will be full of sound and fury signifying nothing (other than to provide food for China and theater for U.S. citizens).

We (the U.S.) have painted ourselves into a corner by selling out to China while pursuing imperialist wars in the Middle East and casting the Russian Federation as our foe instead of our ally.  Is Germany somehow going to help here, or France, or the U.K.?  Not likely.

fat, lazy, apathetic americans who are all too willing to eat up the propoganda narrative dished out by the msm and the dems/repubs, instead of thinking critically, instead of making the hard choices and doing what's right, share the same blame.

what kind of shithead of a parent allows their children to go fight in wars of aggression for no good reason?

Then we can sit back and watch them make a fool of themselves when they have it all.

I say we start by giving the elitists all the nuclear reactors, fire everyone running them and let the elitists take over, they are the smartest people alive according to themselves, so let them figure it out.

Then we can give them the oil fields, im sure they will have no problem running them alone.

Then we can give them the farms, im sure they will be able to farm the land, they are geniuses after-all.

And give them all the money, they claim to know the best way for us all to spend our $ so let them spend it for us , im sure it will work out great.

And give them control of the government, banks , and legal system, they claim to be "doing gods work" and since they think themselves gods, let them handle the responsibility.

 

Let them have it.

Obviously they are right about Russia too and if that hostile nation is not dealt with ASAP it will unleash a wave of horror on the world not seen since the second world war.

The Russians have a demographic problem which will be worse 5 to 10 years down the road. Putin knows this, and so does the West.

The West can afford to wait out the Russians, while putting the next bought-and-paid-for shill in the White House.

Putin cannot afford to wait. First of all, he is not getting any younger, and neither is the general Russian population.

What the West does not realize is that Putin is playing for keeps, and he has nothing to lose. The longer he waits, the weaker his hand becomes.

Within one, maybe two years at most, expect the mother of all wars. Hope you like baked long pork.
