No Doubt: US Taxpayers
Will be Robbed to Arm Poroshenko
By Ron Paul
February 05, 2015 "ICH"
- President Petro Poroshenko, who the US,
along with the Europeans and NATO, helped
place in power after last year’s coup, has
declared that he has “no doubt” America's
taxpayers will provide the lethal weapons he
desires to fight the separatists in eastern
Ukraine. I never had any doubt, either. Of
course it's all to stop "Russian
aggression." NATO's expansionism is never
considered an important issue in the very
dangerous war.
Our policy in Ukraine is a far cry from
"neutrality," staying out of the internal
affairs of others, or avoiding entangling
alliances. It is more like being the
policeman of the world and claiming the
title of the greatest arms manufacturer of
all history. The military-industrial complex
must be pleased with its repeated successes.
I'm sure the neo-cons are also ecstatic. And
sadly it looks like Sen. Lindsey Graham may
get his way and get US troops further
involved.
The claimed need for our sending lethal
weapons to Ukraine is to combat the Russian
troops supposedly already in Ukraine. Yet
the propagandists never provide any evidence
to verify this assertion.
Both sides are now recruiting and even
drafting the young to prepare them to do the
fighting. There's evidence that resistance
is building to this effort. It would be nice
if the young victims of wars started by old
people and foreigners would just go on
strike and refuse to fight. Let the
instigators of the war put their own “boots
on the ground."
