Sabotage

For the second time in 8 years an outgoing Democratic administration has sabotaged Donald Trump and his desire for improved relations with Russia.

In 2016, President Obama played a central role in initiating Russia-gate,  the nefarious scheme to portray Trump as a Russian agent. We know from emails released by WikiLeaks that early discussions regarding the Clinton campaign’s plot to associate Trump with Russia–what Clinton called the Swiftboat plan–were already initiated in February 2016. Over the following months, multiple aspects of the plan were assembled. These included the hiring of campaign operatives Fusion GPS, commissioning the Steele dossier, and composing a group of IT specialists who created a false data trail linking Putin and Trump. Whether Obama was involved with these efforts is unknown. The earliest documented date we have for Obama’s involvement in the scheme is July 28, 2016. On this day, Obama’s CIA Director, John Brennan, came to the Oval Office and briefed Obama on Clinton’s Russia-gate project. Thus, we can say for sure that it was on this day that Obama became aware that the allegations of Russian collusion was really a rat-fucking operation conceived by Hillary Clinton and her band of neocon war-hawks.

And now, President Biden, with his risky decision to allow long range ATACMS strikes into Russia, is attempting to lock Trump into an endless proxy war that has serious risk of a nuclear exchange.

President Joe Biden was too senile to stand for re-election, and was replaced on the Democratic ticket by Kamala Harris. But he’s still president until January 20, and he or the-powers-that-be directing him have decided to leave Trump with two hot wars to contend with. Trump was, in part, elected by the American people because  he vowed to end the war in Ukraine. By taking this escalatory action two months before the end of his term, Biden could wreck any chance Trump might have to achieve peace.

This week the Ukrainian military launched multiple US-made ATACMS missiles at Russia’s Bryansk Region, some of which have been intercepted, the Russian Defense Ministry reported. Biden’s sudden reversal of policy represents a dramatic escalation in the war that will require a strong response from Moscow. Putin has repeatedly warned that firing missiles at targets located on Russian territory would trigger harsh retaliatory attacks not just on sites in Ukraine but also on those nations that are directly involved in the strikes, namely NATO and the United States. 

If that wasn’t enough, after ‘allowing’ Ukraine to fire U.S. controlled ballistic missiles onto targets in Russia, the Biden administration has approved largely prohibited antipersonnel mines for the proxy war against Russia in Ukraine.

Biden’s perilous actions are pushing the US towards World War III. But what is equally shocking is that Biden has been informed by his top advisors that using the ATACMS would have no material impact on the outcome of the war which is already a lost cause. Russian troops are currently advancing at the fastest pace since the war began while Ukraine’s frontlines continue to collapse. The only effect the policy-change will have is to put US and NATO military assets and bases at greater risk and to hobble Trump’s attempt to forge a peace plan.

If Biden was too decrepit to be the Democrats’ candidate in 2024, why does he still have the ability to drag the US into a nuclear war? In fact, the only way that Biden is doing what he is doing is with the consent of senior national security and military leaders, the so-called deep state. Of course, with Biden’s advanced senility, the neocons who make up his foreign policy staff could be freelancing. The neocons are nothing if predictable. When one of their plans goes awry (which they invariably do) they simply double down.

For the last year perceptive military analysts have been pointing out that Russia continues to roll up the Ukrainian army and move to militarily subdue, to demilitarize and de-Nazify, Ukraine east of the Dnieper River, as well as the Black Sea coastal regions all the way to the Danube, including Transnistria. They will very likely also move to secure a demilitarized zone that reaches much further west than the Dnieper, and demand neutrality for whatever of Ukraine remains.

And when all of this becomes apparent the US and NATO will do something really stupid like shooting missiles into Russia.

What could go wrong?
