The war on Ukraine is not Russia’s war, it’s Putin’s ideological obsession with the old USSR. He is obsessed with the past. As an old KGB loyalist, he cannot let go and accept big business wants democracy, families want peace and freedom of choice. By Putin I mean all the war mongers like his generals and elite government officials. Any family will tell you a crappy McDonalds burger is preferred over the death of a child. I cannot believe that most Russian families approve of this war without incredible amounts of propaganda and ‘fake news’. Not that the West is truthful. It’s just a matter of intensity and intent.
To initiate a war over ideological reasons and accept a percentage of deaths because of war is psychotic. The same applies with USA invading Iraq, no excuse. The same applies to any war, because war between two countries is initiated by politicians and terra business, not families with children.
Academics claim Russia sees the Wests action as an existential threat. What existence does a superpower Russia have other than oil and gas. Take the oil and gas away and families will have the same quality of life as without. That oil and gas money went to feed Putin’s army, not families.
There is so much money to be made from gas and oil, to conquer another country for more is just plain greedy. Leave some for other countries. It won’t be long till big business will find another cleaner source of energy and then Russia will be a second-rate Colombia. But look who I am blaming, didn’t the USA flatten Iraq, for what, weapons of mass destruction? Hussain couldn’t even spell that word never mind manufacture something like that.
This brings me back to greed, gas and oil. If you have supply and nobody is buying, then there is no money to be made. Right? So who is on the other side of this gas and oil deal that is so greedy that they are willing to buy from the enemy. Well, the West off course. The West is like an addict, buys from any supplier, irrespective of the consequences.
Now the ultimate conundrum, Putin is at war with Ukraine and expanding it’s supply of gas and oil. The West, especially Germany, is buying up gas and oil from Putin, thus suppling the funds for the war. It is called recursive greed.
The same will happened with China. The west manufactures everything in China, feeding their war machine which will ultimately turn back on the West. At that point it is check mate, as China will be in control of manufacturing and the West will sit with their fingers up their asses.
How is it possible that big business, that control Politian’s cannot envisage the long-term effects of their decisions? Maybe tera business is controlling the wars and Putin as well.
