My piece is intended as a warning, not a prediction.

Frank, so have been my writings since Fall of 2004.

The propaganda machine of Republicans and Democrats are quite similar as the foundation is the American citizen misled by politicians, corporate media and Big Tech for decades now.

Having enjoyed my secondary and university education in St. Louis during the years of the Cold War, I make use of the knowledge and wisdom of excellent teachers/professors. The years of the Vietnam War, Nixon-Kissinger and the Watergate break-in. Aftermath of cruel political assassinations in the sixties. None comes as a surprise as the path of war has been very clearly defined.

The "Russian invasion of Ukraine" was not by accident ... NATO and the U.S. dared Russia to invade ... the Federation was not prepared for war. To annex the Ukraine for NATO's goal to control the Black Sea and open a route to Central Asia and the Caspian basin was a no-go for Putin and seen as an existential threat to the nation ... see history lesson of the Cuban missile crisis. I lived through those years with B-52s stationed in rows at Lambert airport ... ready for take-off armed with nuclear bombs. Image never to forget. Military, politicians, intelligence community all lies. Do not believe the war narrative and heed the warning of America's president Dwight Eisenhower.

A brief review in my latest diaries ...

Before Dying, Wesley Got His War

Wars don't come by accident ... it takes meticulous planning, narrative and years of propaganda.

Excellent video of Wesley Clark presentation about 9/11 -  Neocon policy in the White House, irrelevant whether colored blue or red ... and leaving the Middle East in chaos. Joe Biden and fifty years of foreign policy failures.

In your rhetoric no need to "dehumanize" candidate Trump ... the problem is more complex, broader and more grave.

The Netherlands has a populist regime closely tied to Trumpism with leader Geert Wilders. Wilders is polling close to 40% now ... Mark Rutte's electorate was strengthened by the PVV electorate before the last election.
