I don't know if you have seen this kind of behavior in school or maybe you even you have it in your family.
Its where you have some kind of sibling rivalry in a family -- but it takes on a SNEAKY kind of behavior. I shall explain.
Let's create a scenario. A family has perhaps 3 children. Let's say 3 brothers. There is one violent brother that seems to be a real case. Hes always beating up one brother and threatening to beat up the oldest one TOO.
And from the outside looking in we see the youngest brother usually with a black eye. The oldest brother seems to have come to his youngest brother's defense, and he then took on the "violent brother " and taught him a good lesson. (he seems from the outside to be a real HERO-- YOU KNOW -- A GOOD GUY STUCK IN A DIFFICULT SITUATION. Doing the best, he can -- keeping the peace and all that good stuff.
The mother and father (THE MOTHER AND FATHER IS YOU AND ME ) who arrived on the scene at the end of all of this gives the middle brother a good scowling, a removal of privileges and further punishments. They get all their NEWS from the oldest brother!!
It seems the middle "volent brother" is some kind of deviant and a lost cause! At least that's what the oldest brother keeps saying and He's a grade A student -- why he's captain of his football team !!
BUT IF WE WERE THERE FROM BEGINNING TO END ! We would have discovered it was the OLDEST BROTHER who was instigating fights and provoking, taunting, breaking things of the middle brothers, crowding out his middle brother, taking things from him etc etc.
-- When things were getting a bit rough for the younger brother why the older brother would give a baseball bat to the younger brother (you know to even thing up a bit) and the younger brother could give the middle brother a good beating.
Things were perhaps given to the younger brother, or some kind of fight was instigated between the youngest and the middle brother to get a fight started. Then the oldest brother could beat up the middle brother without anyone understanding what was really going on.
The middle VIOLENT CRAZY MAD PSYCOPATHIC BROTHER ( the middle brother is PUTIN)
would always take the blame.
I wonder if we could look at the Ukraine - American supporter -- Russian War in this context.
Now first let's say probably NONE OF THE BROTHERS is pure hearted- honest or without fault. ( ALL OF THEM ARE UP TO SOMETHING AT ONE TIME OR THE OTHER- TO BE TRUTHFUL ABOUT IT)
The goal of most other powers has always(for hundreds of years) has been to BOX RUSSIA IN.
Im not a fan of Putin- I just want to understand whats going on.
That means they saw on a map how big Russia was, and knew they had to keep this GIANT of a Country from getting out easily into the ocean. Boxed in so it couldn't move about to project naval power (not easily). This took away a really important military component from it. It crippled one leg of the Giant if you will. (it's just a good strategy -- that's all)
Ukraine was at one time closely linked to Russia and it had a warm water port out to the Mediterranean. A port needed for any Superpower to be a SUPERPOWER. Even if Russia became a model capitalist country it would still want that warm water port.
So, whether we "like" Russia or not -- I think we could see why Russia would be really concerned if it lost that port?! I think we could see why the 2014 invasion of Crimea would take place (not agree or want a war)
Next when the Soviet Union collapsed there were verbal assurances that NATO would not start advancing towards Russia. The whole point as to why Russia wanted to control countries like Poland and Hungary was to provide a buffer zone to the West with all their fast-moving tanks etc. They had been invaded by Hitler and his tanks in WW2 and that made the soviets mess their pants- (sorry too simplified-- at the time Communist Soviet Union wanted to make the world a communist world) - Daves simplified world history lesson gone amuck
So again, not because we "like" Russia - but we could see If Poland, Ukraine and so on want to join NATO with all the options of missiles (nuclear capable missiles) right on Russia doorstep-- that would be a real concern for a country like Russia-- Yes ?
If for some reason Russian missiles were installed in CUBA -- (as they were going to be in the 60s ) America could not and were not blamed for creating a blockade around Cuba for decades.
(and by the way the scuttlebutt was that when Russia agreed to remove its missiles from Cuba -- America secretly removed its missiles from Turkey 6 months later (which no one except the Russians and Turks and America of course knew that those missiles were in Turkey before Russia tried to put missiles into Cuba. SNEAKY SNEAKY.
Now who is the BIG BROTHER HERE ? Its America. America is the Football Quarterback of the entire world. It has been instigating little brothers all around Europe to bug Russia (middle brother)
When the little brother (Ukraine) is getting a beating -- big brother says Pssst heres a big stick to beat him with (I try and get you a bigger one later !!). Now war is abhorent but its what every big power does.
Now I am a fan of America, but we need to think what's good for Humanity and us. All these superpowers are entities unto themselves and their elite leaders. All are up to no good at one time or other. Be it Britain, Russia, America or China. They are all jockeying for position on the world power stage.
Now pull back from this stuff because (stop being either PRO Russian or Pro American and THINK) a RETIRED NATO CHEIF OF STAFF HAS JUST SAID TO THE WORLD-- WE ALL SHOULD BE PREPARED FOR A NUCLEAR WAR WITH RUSSIA!!
THIS IS COMING FROM A MILLITARY GROUP THAT MAKES MONEY - YES MAKES LOTS OF MONEY FROM WAR. AND -- THEY--- HAVE-- UNDERGROUND-- BUNKERS----- ------ ------ AND YOU AND I DO NOT !!
We are the mother and father getting our news from the big brother
(USA and CNN who is not an independent source but rather a directly involved source)
And the news is that -- Insane- mad- crazy- violent psychopath middle brother (Putin) is causing all this trouble. THIS IS BECAUSE YOU AND I ARE ALWAYS TAKING THE NEWS FROM THE OLDER BROTHER-- AND THAT BROTHER IS UP TO HIS OWN -- NO GOOD-- AND REMEMBER THEY ARE ALL SCALLYWAGS. All of the brothers are up to no good generally.
We (the mother and father) arrive late on the scene and ask -" OK WHATS GOING ON HERE??!! And up pops our trusted golden-haired son --the football star of the family and says-- "Putin our brother is at it again Mommy and Daddy ! Hes beating up the LITTLE BROTHER. I didn't want to do it but I had to give him a good beating so he wouldn't do a bad thing to little brother"!! ---- "Good Son"! Says mommy and Daddy !!
You know if you were a mother or a father - the truth is always somewhere in the middle and not with any one brother.
THINK !!! -- let's not get lost here-- where are WE as we look at these brothers fighting ? WE are the father and mother. We do not have BUNKERS and WE are not good at fighting. And WE do not have lots of money to buy arms and bunkers.
WE are never going to be given a ticket to an underground bunker like the elite have.
