Blessed
Are The Warmongers

As
life on planet Earth enters its recorded year of
2019 the world has only one leader. He is
Vladimir Putin, President of Russia. There are
in office nowhere in the West any real leaders,
only servants of the Oligarchy and vassals of
the servants. Donald Trump intended to be
otherwise and might yet break out of the
orchestrated existence the military/security
complex, Democratic Party and presstitute media
have created for him.
Putin’s
humanity and self-control, has maintained peace
despite Washington’s aggression and provocative
actions against Russia. It is Putin who has
accepted insults that in the past would have
resulted in war.
Putin
has paid a price for his self-control. He has
maintained peace at the expense of his standing
in Russia, if a poll published on fort-russ.com
is valid. According to the poll, Russians have
“a lost sense of belonging to a great power.”

According to the poll, a large majority of
Russians regret the collapse of the Soviet
Union. Capitalism has brought economic
insecurity, and the loss of Russian territory
has brought a sense of defeat.
Are You Tired Of
The Lies And
Non-Stop Propaganda?

On one
hand, these Russian beliefs result from
Washington’s demonization of Russia and
insulting behavior toward Putin. On the other
hand, Putin and Lavrov’s constrained responses
to the lies and false accusations against Russia
offend patriotic Russians. No American
government would have dared to treat a Soviet
leader the way Putin has been treated. The
Russians want Putin to stand up for Russia, to
cease turning the other cheek, to cease
referring to Russia’s enemies as partners when
it is completely obvious that the West is
Russia’s Enemy.
The
Russian people are tired of the Russian
government’s toleration of Western-financed
newspapers, NGOs, and political parties in
Russia. Russia is for Russians, not for
Western-financed traitors who tirelessly work to
undermine Russia with Western money. Russia is
accused falsely of interfering in Western
political life, but it is the West that
interferes in Russian political life with bags
full of money.
The
Russians are patriots, which is how they
survived and defeated Hitler. Russians want a
government that is nationalist, not globalist,
and not a government overlooking provocations in
hopes of being accepted as yet another
Washington vassal. When a poll shows that 66% of
those polled feel nostalgic for the Soviet
Union, the message is clear that the Russian
government’s accommodation of the West is a
failed policy.
As evil
spreads its dominion over the West, it is no
longer the peacemakers who are blessed.
President Trump’s desire to improve relations
with Russia were rewarded by former CIA director
John Brennan branding Trump a traitor. Trump’s
decision to withdraw US troops from their
illegal and defeated purpose in Syria resulted
in Susan Rice, a former national security
adviser, declaring Trump to be a threat to US
national security. None of Trump’s enemies
regard worsening relations with Russia to be a
national security threat.
It is
peace that is declared to be the threat. Even in
Russia Putin’s restrained response to
provocations has lowered his approval rating.
To have
peace so devalued in a world of hypersonic
thermo-nuclear weapons is evil’s triumph.
