The desperation evident in the succession of increasingly blatant lies, coming from Anglo-American spokesmen about an impending Russian invasion of Ukraine, demonstrates that they know their attempt to dictate the shape of the post-Cold War world is reaching an end.  Each day, a new fabrication is produced, while in the background, a new Russian-China alliance has been cemented, calling for a new global security architecture which protects the interests of people in all nations.  The issue of war or peace has never been so clear -- can the Anglo-American war drive be stopped?

Feb 5—At 4:00 p.m. on Friday afternoon (Feb. 4), the following headline appeared on the Bloomberg News website: “Russia Invades Ukraine.” Note that it was then midnight in Moscow, and that President Vladimir Putin was not in the country, but in Beijing. For a full 30 minutes, this headline remained on the website, before it was finally removed, with Bloomberg News posting an attempted apology: “We prepare headlines for many scenarios and one of those headlines was inadvertently published at around 4 p.m. ET today on our website. We deeply regret the error.”

Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists, founded in 1945, announced on Jan. 20 that for the third year in a row, their Doomsday Clock remains fixed at 100 seconds to midnight. “Steady is not good news,” said Sharon Squassoni, a professor at George Washington University and a member of the group. “We are stuck in a perilous moment—one that brings neither stability nor security. Positive developments in 2021 failed to counteract negative, long-term trends,” she said.

The Science of Strategy: Durable Survival Lies in the Complex Domain

As Presidents Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping meet for the 38th time in Beijing, the United States must discard its failed “world’s only superpower ” conceit, and finally adopt the three-decades-old economic policy of Lyndon LaRouche: the World Land-Bridge. War with Russia using Ukraine as a pretext, or war with China using Taiwan as a pretext, will only bring ruin to the United States and the world. Why does the United States, which, advised by British Intelligence, conducted the illegal Iraq War in 2003 on a false pretext of finding “weapons of mass destruction,” killing over a million people in total, a United States which now silently ensures the starvation of a million-plus children in Afghanistan by preventing billions of dollars belonging to that government from being released to it—why does that United States preach to China, or any other nation in the world, about human rights violations? How can the destruction-by-war of Iraq, Syria, Libya, and Afghanistan, and the February 2014 overthrow of the elected government of Ukraine all seriously represented as “the spreading of democracy” to the planet?

Feb. 3—The days of UK-U.S.-NATO hegemony are over. Will that oligarchical reign end in the hell of thermonuclear obliteration by thousands of hydrogen bombs? Or will it be overcome by the people of the U.S. and other trans-Atlantic nations throwing off their self-imposed shackles, to demand a new mission of progress and growth for all people of the planet?

President Putin yesterday called out the War Hawks, who claim they are concerned with "protecting Ukraine's sovereignty."  They are using this narrative, he said, as an excuse to draw Russia into an armed conflict, "to hamper Russia's development."  A memo released by the White House last week actually stated this as the intention of the new sanctions regime they are drafting.  Driving the war talk is not Russian military deployments, but the deepening panic that the Great Reset is in trouble, in large part because Russia and China will not surrender their sovereignty to a global dictatorship of central banks!   

On Dec. 17, 2021, Russia publicly presented two draft treaties for urgent adoption—one with the United States, one with NATO—which addressed Russia’s existential security concerns regarding the inexorable eastward expansion of NATO and the placement of threatening weapon systems on its borders. Russia demanded immediate written responses to their urgent proposals, in order to brake the rush to war emanating from the West.
