LE GUERRE PROVOCATE (2022-2023)

"Most of them are dead!"- Ukraine's army DECIMATED says Col. MacGregor | Redacted w Clayton Morris
Colonel Douglas MacGregor reveals the devastating truth about Ukraine's standing army, they've been obliterated. President Zelensky this weekend said there are long lines at Ukraine's recruitment centers but there is no evidence of that. Russia continues to decimate air defense across Ukraine ahead of a June offensive.
John Mearsheimer Ukraine Salon
The Biden Administration is engulfed in a staggeringly expensive folly in Ukraine with no forseeable good outcomes. The Committee hosted University of Chicago Professor John Mearsheimer the week after the Russian invasion fourteen months ago. That zoom salon had 1,136,000 views. The Committee has invited John to return -- this time in person. John will argue twin themes: First, we are in a war where both sides – Ukraine and the West versus Russia – see the other as an existential threat. That makes a workable peace agreement beyond reach. The best possible outcome is a frozen conflict that is likely to have a variety of terrible consequences. The worst possible outcome is a nuclear war, which is unlikely but cannot be ruled out. Second, Russia is going to win the war, although it is not going to decisively defeat Ukraine. It will end up, however, conquering a large swath of Ukrainian territory and making it part of Russia, while at the same time turning Ukraine into a dysfunctional rump state. The Committee would not be holding this salon over Ukraine if we had been faithful to constitutional processes. The systematic provision of $113 billion in military assistance to Ukraine in its war with Russia makes the United States a co-belligerent requiring a congressional declaration. But no co-belligerency declaration has been initiated by Congress nor sought by President Joe Biden. If Congress were required to vote, it would balk at co-belligerency as it balked in 2013 when President Barack Obama asked for a declaration of war against Syria and as it balked in 1999 when President Bill Clinton asked for a declaration of war against Serbia.

Jeffrey Sachs on the Path to Peace in Ukraine
World-renowned intellectual Jeffrey Sachs will speak on “The Path to Peace in Ukraine". Sachs was twice named one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World by Time and ranked by The Economist among the top three most influential living economists. He will be joined by University of Ottawa Ukraine expert Ivan Katchanovski who will provide background on the conflict in Ukraine as well as context around Canada's role. *** BACKGROUND Recently, the Canadian government called for regime change in Moscow and openly opposed China’s call for a truce and negotiations. At the same time Canada has donated more than $2 billion in arms to Ukraine. Alongside large amounts of weapons, Canada is sharing critical military intelligence and training Ukrainian troops while Canadian special forces and former troops operate in Ukraine. Russia’s war is illegal and brutal and Ottawa contributed to provoking this horrible conflict through its role in promoting NATO expansion, helping oust elected president Victor Yanukovich and military assistance that undermined the Minsk II peace accord. It’s time the Canadian government pushed for a truce and negotiations to end the horrors. *** SPEAKERS Jeffrey D. Sachs is a professor and the Director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University, where he directed the Earth Institute from 2002 until 2016. His most recent book is ‘The Ages of Globalization: Geography, Technology, and Institutions’ (2020). Sachs was twice named as one of Time magazine’s 100 most influential world leaders and was ranked by The Economist among the top three most influential living economists. Ivan Katchanovski is a University of Ottawa professor who has published four books and numerous articles including “The far right, the Euromaidan, and the Maidan massacre in Ukraine” and “The hidden origin of the escalating Ukraine-Russia conflict”. *** Host: Canadian Foreign Policy Institute (www.foreignpolicy.ca) Co-sponsors: World Beyond War, Rights Action, Just Peace Advocates Moderator: Bianca Mugyenyi, CFPI

See important Masterworks disclosures: https://masterworks.com/cd The Russian Economy is puzzling to look at. On one hand it is the most resource rich nation on earth, on the other it somehow has a smaller GDP than Italy. It makes sense then, why, after the start of the Russian Ukrainian war, and it being subjected to the most comprehensive sanctions imposed on a major power in nearly a century, many speculated its complete collapse. Yet this never happened. In fact, it has exceeded even the most optimistic predictions, shrinking by a measly 2.1% while this year it is expected to return to growth, outpacing the United Kingdom and Germany. But how is this even possible? Has Putin really created an economy impervious to sanctions? The answer to this question is embedded within the very fabric and history of the Russian state we know of today. After all, armed conflicts are frequently determined by economic power, while the intricate interplay between history and politics plays a crucial role in shaping a nation's economy and how it responds in times of crisis. So what is exactly going on, why has Russia’s Economy not collapsed? – Contents of this video -------------------------------- 00:00 - Russia’s Economy 04:23 - The Soviet Union’s Masterplan 09:25 - Rebuilding From The Ashes 11:57 - “The People’s Capitalism” 17:37 - Putin’s Russia 27:10 - Fortress Russia Policy 29:13 - The Russian Ukrainian War 31:55 - Why Russia’s Economy Has Not Collapsed 37:09 - Russia’s Bleak Economic Future https://youtu.be/Ea2EVGicax8

Jeffrey Sachs on China's "Historic" Push for Multipolar World to End U.S. Domination
China is taking an increasingly assertive role in world affairs, helping to broker a restoration of relations between Iran and Saudi Arabia, offering a 12-point peace plan for Ukraine, and strengthening its relationships with European and Latin American powers. Last week, China continued its diplomatic outreach by offering to hold talks between Israel and Palestine. "China doesn't want the United States to be the preeminent power. It wants to live alongside the United States," says economist Jeffrey Sachs, director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University and president of the U.N. Sustainable Development Solutions Network. He has also served as adviser to three U.N. secretaries-general and currently serves as a sustainable development solutions advocate under Secretary-General António Guterres.

Diario della crisi: Dalla gestione della crisi al sistema di guerra – di Stefano Lucarelli
In questa decima puntata del “Diario della crisi” – progetto nato dalla collaborazione tra Effimera, Machina-DeriveApprodi ed El Salto – Stefano Lucarelli riflette sull’inopportuno susseguirsi di crisi che spiazzano ed eliminano le cause e i possibili interventi sulle conseguenze di quelle precedenti, facendo sì che gli effetti di queste ultime si accumulino e si articolino con quelli delle prime in modo sempre più intrattabile. L’economia dell’attenzione è quindi legata alla formazione di un potere politico sempre più autoritario, che ci invita a pagare il “prezzo della libertà” (Josep Borrel) e ad accettare la creazione di circuiti economici definiti in termini strettamente geopolitici (friend-shoring) legati all’opzione della guerra come orizzonte normalizzato. Le politiche economiche, monetarie e fiscali sono di conseguenza concepite dalle attuali classi dirigenti secondo questi parametri reazionari, con assoluta indipendenza dai loro effetti nocivi sulle classi lavoratrici e povere. Nel frattempo, l’Unione Europea segue docilmente il disegno delle classi dominanti egemoniche globali, imprigionata nella propria impotenza nazionalista.

On this episode of Going Underground, we speak to Fyodor Lukyanov, Editor-in-Chief of Russia in Global Affairs, Chairman of the Presidium of the Russian Council of Foreign and Defence Policy, and Research Director at the Valdai Discussion Club. He discusses why currently there is no prospect for direct or indirect negotiations between Russia, Ukraine and NATO nations, the rising distrust against mainstream media in the US and Europe, the destruction of the Nova Kakhovka Dam, the emergence of a multipolar world and Russia’s lack of ruling ideology, Russian President Vladimir Putin’s evolution from a pro-Western leader to a leader now opposing US hegemony, reports of the imminent demise of Russia in NATO nation media and much more.

Ukraine and the West | A Lecture by John J. Mearsheimer & discussion feat. Max Otte & Jasmin Kosubek
Since the upheaval in 2014, Ukraine has not found peace. The bloody battle for Bachmut is the latest sad climax of the conflict between Russia and Western states. Why did this war break out, and what lies ahead for Ukraine, Russia, and the West? On May 12, 2023, renowned political scientist John J. Mearsheimer came to Germany at the invitation of Max Otte to speak about the Ukrainian crisis. His lecture covered the following four topics: 1. The reasons for the Ukrainian war. 2. Who will win the war? 3. Prospects for a diplomatic solution. 4. What will the future relationship between Russia and the West look like? In this video, you can see Max Otte's introductory speech as well as John J. Mearsheimer's full lecture. In the last part of the video, Mr. Mearsheimer and Mr. Otte discussed questions by the audience moderated by Jasmin Kosubek (@JasminKosubekOriginal). Soon, on Max Otte's video channel, you will be able to watch another conversation between the two in which the topics were further explored. Mearsheimer is the Chair of International Relations at the University of Chicago. His notable books include "The Tragedy of Great Power Politics" (2001), "The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy" (2007), and "Why Leaders Lie: The Truth About Lying in International Politics" (2011). Mearsheimer is considered the leading advocate of the so-called realist school of thought in international relations, which aims for a balance of interests between states. Mearsheimer gained attention from the general public through his comments on U.S. foreign policy. He criticized U.S. influence in Ukraine starting in 2014. His lecture titled "Why is Ukraine the West's Fault?" from 2015 has already been viewed 29 million times on YouTube alone: • Why is Ukraine th... -- Seit dem Umsturz im Jahr 2014 kommt die Ukraine nicht mehr zur Ruhe. Der blutige Kampf um Bachmut ist der jüngste traurige Höhepunkt der Auseinandersetzung zwischen Russland und den westlichen Staaten. Warum ist dieser Krieg ausgebrochen und wie geht es weiter für die Ukraine, Russland und den Westen? Der berühmte Politikwissenschaftler John J. Mearsheimer kam am 12. Mai 2023 auf Einladung von Max Otte nach Deutschland, um über die Ukrainekrise zu referieren. Sein Vortrag umfasst die folgenden vier Themen: 1. Die Gründe für den Ukrainekrieg 2. Wer wird den Krieg gewinnen? 3. Aussichten auf eine diplomatische Lösung 4. Wie wird die Beziehung zwischen Russland und dem Westen in Zukunft aussehen? In diesem Video sehen Sie die Einführungsrede von Max Otte sowie den Vortrag von John J. Mearsheimer in voller Länge. Im letzten Teil des Videos sehen Sie die Podiumsdiskussion mit Fragen der Gäste, moderiert von Jasmin Kosubek (@JasminKosubekOriginal ). Auf dem Videokanal von Max Otte können Sie in Kürze ein weiteres Gespräch zwischen John Mearsheimer und Max Otte sehen, in dem die Themen weiter vertieft wurden. Mearsheimer ist Inhaber des Lehrstuhls für Internationale Beziehungen an der University of Chicago. Zu seinen vielbeachteten Büchern gehören The Tragedy of Great Power Politics (2001), The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy (2007) und Why Leaders Lie: The Truth About Lying in International Politics (2011). Mearsheimer gilt als wichtigster Vertreter der sogenannten realistischen Denkschule der Internationalen Beziehungen, die auf einen Interessenausgleich zwischen Staaten abzielt. Der breiten Öffentlichkeit wurde Mearsheimer nicht zuletzt auch durch seine Kommentare zur US-amerikanischen Außenpolitik bekannt. So kritisiert er den US-Einfluss in der Ukraine ab 2014. Sein Vortrag „Why is Ukraine the West's Fault?“ aus dem Jahr 2015 wurde allein auf YouTube bereits 29 Millionen mal abgerufen: • Why is Ukraine th... __________________________________________ Max Otte | Website: http://www.max-otte.de/ Max Otte | Newsletter: http://www.max-otte.de/newsletter Zu unserem offiziellen "Der Privatinvestor TV" YouTube-Kanal: / privatinvestortv Zu unserem offiziellen "PI Politik Spezial - Stimme der Vernunft" YouTube-Kanal: / pi-politikspezial

Verso la Nato globale? - L'approfondimento di Lucio Caracciolo
Gli Stati Uniti vogliono estendere l'area di azione dell'Alleanza Atlantica fino all'Indo-Pacifico, per coinvolgerla con Giappone, Corea del Sud, Australia, e per certi versi India e Filippine anche nella sfida con la Cina. Giappone e Polonia diventano in particolare gli alleati principali, il primo nella sfida con la Cina, la seconda nella guerra in Ucraina e il confronto con la Russia. Puntata registrata il 17 giugno 2023.

GUERRA RUSSO-UCRAINA: L’INSURREZIONE DI WAGNER, DI BIG SERGE, 26 June 2023
Questa analisi che traduco e pubblichiamo mi pare in assoluto la migliore e la più equilibrata tra tutte le moltissime comparse sinora sulla vicenda dell’insurrezione armata delle milizie Wagner; forse anche perché coincide con la mia, pubblicata il 25 giugno scorso[1]: si tenga dunque in considerazione il possibile conflitto di interessi, nel mio giudizio positivo. L’analisi di Big Serge sfugge al pericolo principale, che in casi simili è: sovrainterpretare. Una miriade di informazioni impossibili da verificare, manipolazioni a tutto spiano, emozioni al calor bianco: è in casi come questo che la nebbia della guerra clausewitziana sale più fitta. Per farsi un’idea, invece, è necessario attenersi a quel che è possibile valutare con un minimo sindacale di attendibilità, non farsi travolgere dai pregiudizi e dalle ipotesi onnicomprensive che spiegano tutto, in breve sospendere il giudizio su tutto ciò che non suoni autentico, e tenersi pronti a cambiare idea se il contesto muta con il passare dei giorni. L’Autore, inoltre, ha ben chiaro che “nel nostro tempo prevale un modello analitico: c’è una macchina che prende istantaneamente vita, accogliendo voci e informazioni parziali in un ambiente di estrema incertezza e risputando formule che corrispondono a presupposti ideologici. L’informazione non è valutata in modo neutrale, ma è costretta a passare attraverso un filtro cognitivo che le assegna un significato alla luce di conclusioni predeterminate.” In altre parole, la maggior parte dell’informazione e dei commenti, sia nei media ufficiali, sia nelle fonti che si vogliono “critiche” e “alternative”, corrisponde a quel che Leszek Kolakowski chiamava “la quinta operazione”. Nelle quattro operazioni aritmetiche – addizione, sottrazione, moltiplicazione, divisione – il risultato consegue ai fattori, e non è noto prima che l’operazione aritmetica sia eseguita. La “quinta operazione”, invece, precostituisce il risultato e vi adatta i fattori che lo producono. Buona lettura. Roberto Buffagni
Professor John Mearsheimer explains that the Biden administration had made it abundantly clear, on multiple occasions leading up to the war, that Ukraine's membership in NATO was a definite plan.
Professor John Mearsheimer explains that the Biden administration had made it abundantly clear, on multiple occasions leading up to the war, that Ukraine's membership in NATO was a definite plan. This message was conveyed at the Brussels NATO Summit in June 2021, outlined in a strategic document in November 2021, and responded to a Russian letter in December 2021. Additionally, Professor Mearsheimer discusses the security dilemma and highlights why Russia perceives NATO's expansion into Ukraine as a significant threat to its national security: "They said it in a statement that was made at the Brussels NATO Summit in June of 2021. They said it in a very important strategic document that was issued in November 2021. And when the Russians wrote a letter on December 17th, 2021, asking President Biden to put in writing that Ukraine would not become a member of NATO, Tony Blinken made it clear to the Russians that we rejected that request and that Ukraine would become a part of NATO. Part two of the story is that Ukraine was effectively a de facto member of NATO by early 2022...We were arming the Ukrainians, we were training the Ukrainians, we were including them in military exercises that we ran, that NATO ran. We were obsessed with interoperability between Ukrainian and NATO fighting forces. So Ukraine was well on its way to developing the military capability to be a NATO member, this idea that there was no chance that Ukraine would ever become part of NATO is a fiction that proponents of the war have invented to defend themselves... It's virtually impossible to distinguish between defense and offense, whether you're talking about weapons or military strategy, or military plans. So you can have an alliance that you think is defensive in nature. But if you're standing on the other side of the line, it does not look defensive in nature, it looks offensive in nature... Are you going to be able to distinguish as to whether they're defensive or offensive divisions? I don't think so. The end result is what we have with regard to NATO expansion into Ukraine is a situation where on the Western side, we think this is a defensive move, whereas, on the Russian side, they think it's it is an offensive move. Whereas we think we are containing the Russians, the Russians think we are encircling them. This is the security dilemma."
Il buio che ci sta davanti: dove è diretta la guerra in Ucraina, di John J. Mearsheimer
Questo recentissimo articolo di John Mearsheimer, che traduciamo e pubblichiamo, raccoglie gli argomenti fondamentali degli interventi pubblici recenti e prossimi del grande studioso americano. Difficile sopravvalutarne l’importanza. In esso si ritrovano, corredati da un ampio apparato di note e documenti, gli elementi essenziali della situazione in Ucraina, e dei suoi prossimi, probabili sviluppi. Come d’uso, Mearsheimer li esprime con la massima semplicità e chiarezza, in uno sforzo di obiettività e perspicuità che gli fa onore.

L'Ucraina in fiamme - Documentario di Igor Lopatonok - Oliver Stone 2016
"L'Ucraina in fiamme" è un film documentario del produttore ucraino Igor Lopatonok e del regista americano Oliver Stone. Per secoli l'Ucraina è stata al centro di un braccio di ferro tra le potenze imperialiste che cercavano di controllare le sue ricche terre e l'accesso al Mar Nero. "Ukraine on Fire" di Igor Lopatonok fornisce una prospettiva storica delle profonde divisioni nella regione che hanno portato alla Rivoluzione arancione del 2004, alle rivolte del 2014 e al violento rovesciamento di Yanukovich democraticamente eletto. L'evento descritto dai media occidentali come una rivoluzione popolare, è stato in realtà un colpo di stato sceneggiato e messo in scena da gruppi nazionalisti e dal Dipartimento di Stato degli Stati Uniti. Il giornalista investigativo Robert Parry rivela come le ONG politiche e le società di media finanziate dagli Stati Uniti siano emerse dagli anni '80 in sostituzione della CIA nel promuovere l'agenda geopolitica americana all'estero. - Subtitles are available in Italian, English, Russian, French, German, Spanish, Swedish, Romanian, Turkish, Chinese, Arabic, Portuguese.

“It’s not an accident that the US went to war in Iraq, Syria, and Libya to install US-friendly governments because those were 3 countries that had been allied with the Soviet Union. The US went after Saddam Hussein, Bashar al Assad, and Muammar Gaddafi.”

Ucraina: resistenza? No, “regime change”. Il totem Zelensky si sbriciola in tv, di di Barbara Spinelli
Per il momento non è dato sapere quale sarà la strategia statunitense, dopo la breve ma traumatica insurrezione di Prigožin. Se prevarrà un atteggiamento più guardingo, mosso dal timore che il crollo del potere centrale a Mosca generi un caos ingovernabile, mettendo a repentaglio il controllo di oltre 6000 testate nucleari russe (oggi dispiegate anche in Bielorussia, in risposta all’insistente domanda polacca di ospitare atomiche Nato sul modello italiano della “condivisione nucleare”).
Why Putin's Pathetic Economy is Booming
The Russian Economy is puzzling to look at. On one hand it is the most resource rich nation on earth, on the other it somehow has a smaller GDP than Italy. It makes sense then, why, after the start of the Russian Ukrainian war, and it being subjected to the most comprehensive sanctions imposed on a major power in nearly a century, many speculated its complete collapse. Yet this never happened. In fact, it has exceeded even the most optimistic predictions, shrinking by a measly 2.1% while this year it is expected to return to growth, outpacing the United Kingdom and Germany. But how is this even possible? Has Putin really created an economy impervious to sanctions? The answer to this question is embedded within the very fabric and history of the Russian state we know of today. After all, armed conflicts are frequently determined by economic power, while the intricate interplay between history and politics plays a crucial role in shaping a nation's economy and how it responds in times of crisis. So what is exactly going on, why has Russia’s Economy not collapsed?

Defense Contractor Funded Think Tanks Dominate Ukraine Debate MAY 2023 | QUINCY BRIEF NO. 41, di Ben Freeman
Think tanks in the United States are a go–to resource for media outlets seeking expert opinions on pressing public policy issues. But think tanks often have entrenched stances; a growing body of research has shown that their funders can influence their analysis and commentary. This influence can include censorship — both self-censorship and more direct censoring of work unfavorable to a funder — and outright pay–for–research agreements with funders. The result is an environment where the interests of the most generous funders can dominate think tank policy debates.

Sachs: "The world is absolutely standing against what the United States is standing for right now"
Dwight D. Eisenhower spoke 62 years ago, it was his farewell address, 1961, January, and he warned us already then about the power of the military-industrial complex. President Biden said, we're the beacon to the world. The world is absolutely standing against what the United States is standing for right now. And if you want proof of it, it was 14 to one in the UN Security Council in recent days. When the other 14 members of the UN Security Council said we need a ceasefire and humanitarian relief and the United States vetoed that. Watch the Full Interview with Prof. Jeffrey Sachs here.

La tedesca in me: riflessioni sul conflitto israelo-palestinese – di Anonimo
Abbiamo ricevuto una lettera di una persona di cittadinanza tedesca che vive in Italia. Rispettiamo la sua richiesta di rimanere anonima perché é comprendiamo che può suscitare paura il clima di sistematica intimidazione di ogni opinione che si allontani dal conformismo occidentalista. Decidiamo di pubblicarla in più lingue per denunciare la gravità dell’atteggiamento delle autorità europee pronte a tollerare ogni crimine di Israele in nome della colpa europea, come se giustificare un nuovo genocidio potesse assolverci dai genocidi del passato.

Richiesta di un’urgente azione per un cessate il fuoco immediato e il rispetto del diritto umanitario internazionale
In quanto membri delle comunità accademiche e dei centri di ricerca italiani, scriviamo questa lettera in nome della pace e della giustizia, uniti dalla richiesta di porre un'immediata fine alla guerra in corso contro Gaza. Riteniamo sia nostro dovere individuale, comunitario e accademico, dissociarsi dalle posizioni finora intraprese dal governo del nostro Paese, ed assumerci la responsabilità di azioni e richieste per contrastare il crescente livello di violenza al quale stiamo assistendo impotenti. Rivolgiamo questo appello al nostro ministro degli Esteri, perché si mobiliti per richiedere e sostenere un immediato cessate il fuoco, la fornitura di aiuti umanitari e la protezione delle Nazioni Unite per l’intera popolazione palestinese. Rivolgiamo questo appello alla ministra dell’Università e della Ricerca ed alla CRUI, perché possano amplificare le nostre voci e le nostre richieste, ricordando la missione centrale delle nostre istituzioni accademiche rivolta alla produzione di conoscenza e rispetto dei diritti umani.
