Obama antics moving US toward nuke war - expert
Press TV has interviewed Mike Billington with the Executive Intelligence Review from Leesburg to discuss US President Barack Obama’s mishandling of the crisis in Ukraine.
- How do you assess these reactions coming out about Crimea’s accession to Russia?
- The idea that Obama pledged not to use military might in Ukraine is of course ludicrous. He’s lied to the American people and to the US Congress about virtually everything to the point where finally many Democrats are beginning to move toward the impeachment that is required and which is the only way to stop him from in fact launching war against Russia, which is the intention.
The issue here is not really over Crimea. It’s not really over Ukraine. This is a confrontation with Russia driven by the state of the absolute collapse of the Western financial system, which has now reached a point of complete breakdown, moving toward the point they call a ‘bail-in’, which will unleash not just another Lehman Brothers but a systemic breakdown of the entire Western banking system.
The British know this. Their puppet, Obama, knows this. And their view is that they must launch a confrontation to force Russia and China to back down to the level of looting that’s going on on a global scale.
And if they do not back down, they will indeed move towards war. You can see this with the extensive military deployment taking place surrounding China.
As I’m sure you know, Mr. Putin in his speech the day before yesterday or just yesterday rather, made very clear that since the time of the fall of the Soviet Union, the lie of the West that there would not be an eastward expansion of NATO, has been proven over and over again to be a lie. Now, in fact, they’re moving directly into the heart of the former Soviet Union in Ukraine, which would leave Russia absolutely indefensible.
The continued placement, as Joe Biden who today basically put himself in the same criminal camp as President Obama by his antics in Europe today, said that they will proceed with the anti-ballistic missile system surrounding Russia, which the Russians have long insisted are clearly aimed at Russia, not at Iran which has no capacity to attack Europe in that way, and which is creating a first-strike capacity by the West against Russia, which Russia cannot tolerate. They cannot tolerate a neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine.
Of course, the most severe hypocrisy is Obama saying he’s concerned about the disruption of Ukrainian sovereignty when in fact as everyone knows Victoria Nuland, his personal representative to Ukraine, was caught on tape plotting the subversion of the elected Ukrainian government, the placement of Yats (Arseniy Yatsenyuk), as she likes to call him, in the leadership of Ukraine, that they’ve placed seven members of the neo-Nazi to vote a movement in the government, and that Yatsenyuk is now planning to bring the ultra-violent fascist, right-winged thugs from the Right Sector into an official national guard, which would be armed and set loose to carry out Nazi-style terror around the country.
This is something the Russians cannot withstand.
There is no solution to this outside of removing Obama from office very quickly.
The good news is that largely because some courageous democrats behind Senator Dianne Feinstein, the senior democrat in the intelligence committee, have finally taken measures to identity the crimes of Obama and his CIA in their carrying out overt spying against the Senate to try to undermine their investigation in the rendition and torture policies of the Bush and Cheney administration, which President Obama is protecting – protecting the Cheney torture just as he’s in fact extending and expanding on the Cheney policy of colonial, imperial warfare at will, as we’ve demonstrated over and over again in the Middle East and as we’re now moving towards direct thermonuclear confrontation with Russia.
