  1. I put this all over Twitter -

    Russia was to be broken into small states by the West, its resources stolen, and its people turned into slaves until Putin came along and stopped it. https://t.co/hiSwdToIYr

  2. I posted this recently. It explains why, and why it remains the chief strategy of the Anglo-American Empire geopolitically in order to secure permanent global hegemony.

    HALFORD MACKINDER: THE GEOGRAPHICAL PIVOT OF HISTORY

    I have explained this extensively in previous comments here at MNE in terms of geopolitics and geostrategy. This led to WWI, was the reason for the Treaty of Versailles that resulted in WWII, the Cold War, the expansion of NATO toward Russia after the collapse of the USSR, and Putin's reaction.

    This is also the case with China.

    It is the reason behind the humongous US-UK military spending, the "special relationship," and "five eyes" intel.

    Now that Russia and China realize it and are teaming up, we'll see where it goes.

    Add the mounting pressure from climate change to the mix and the situation appears volatile.
