Michael Snyder\u00a0summarizes the demolition of the Nord Stream 1 and 2 pipelines well<\/a>, with links to support what we do know so far.\u00a0 Did the US do it?\u00a0 Purposeful destruction of another country\u2019s property and logistics, conducted in international waters 300 feet below the surface of the ocean is certainly an act of war.\u00a0 It is also in the sweet spot of false flag operations, needed when the real reason Washington wants a particular war is not domestically compelling or popular.\u00a0 Of course,\u00a0many nations have admitted false flag events<\/a>.<\/p>\n

TRUTH LIVES on at\u00a0https:\/\/sgtreport.tv\/<\/a><\/p>\n

Tom Luongo\u00a0<\/a>writes that much of the US and British reaction to the Russian-Ukrainian war \u2013 a war the US has been part of since long before 2014 \u2013 may be about ensuring most of Europe bends the knee to Washington, rather than becoming more economically integrated with the modernizing and resource rich East.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s been months since stumbling Joe made clear on the presidential podium that the US would end Nord Stream 2.\u00a0 Joe\u2019s handlers boldly insist that Germany and much of Europe buy overpriced, inefficiently shipped US product, or else face the US military destruction of a competing, lower cost, and efficient competitor.\u00a0 Maybe the boldness was based on something the CIA\/Pentagon told Joe long ago.\u00a0 Badmouthing Nord Stream 2 has been common\u00a0among the newer NATO members<\/a>\u00a0for several years. Victoria Nuland back in March of this year called Nord Stream 2 \u201ca pile of metal on the seabed<\/a>.\u201d Who knew she was\u00a0so prescient<\/a>?<\/p>\n

I\u2019m sure Joe doesn\u2019t want to think he is a capitalist, or even a corporatist. But if it is shown that the US blew three (no, four!<\/a>) monster holes in two Russian pipelines to dominate a market, he absolutely qualifies as a fascist.\u00a0 And a criminal, way past \u201c10% for the Big Guy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Effectively demonizing Russia to the masses can be difficult in the streaming era.\u00a0 It\u2019s hard to get people to pay attention to your propaganda these days.\u00a0 Even with the fabulous pan-government efforts during Covid-19, the results were not only mixed, but a portion of the populations are now permanently immune\u00a0to future similar state messaging<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Joe insisted that Germany and other countries sanction Russia gas, a ploy that only raised Russia\u2019s profits, as it did other oil and gas exporters (like the US).\u00a0 In a world of diffuse political parties and diffuse sources of information, US and NATO (apologies for the repetition) saying how helpful all of this is for Germany isn\u2019t working.\u00a0 Germans themselves see and understand the reality of power; they know what the phrase \u201cshort end of a stick\u201d means. Certainly the 2.7 million Turks, and other immigrants in the\u00a0growing German underclass<\/a>\u00a0understand it from past experience.<\/p>\n

Instead of strong, masterful, and liberty-loving, the US just looks guilty.<\/p>\n

Thierry Meyssan has a\u00a0good summary of our WWIII<\/a>\u00a0tinder, and there are some clear takeaways for Americans.\u00a0 Let\u2019s start with three things all Americans already know:\u00a0 1) our government doesn\u2019t represent our interests; 2) our government is insolvent, and 3) our government lies constantly at home and abroad.\u00a0 Some, but not all, Americans are concerned that the republic is dead, the central state has no limits to its power and militarism, and that\u00a0friendly fascism is already deeply entrenched<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here are two \u201cnew\u201d things that all Americans need to know and understand right now, given the events of this week.<\/p>\n

First, the US government is trying to survive and it requires global monetary and military might to do that.\u00a0 Let\u2019s break it down.\u00a0 \u201cSurvive\u201d is a word we use a lot, like \u201cWhew, I survived the briefing, \u2026 the week, \u2026 the vacation\u2026.\u201d\u00a0 But the powers that be in the USG are literally trying to ensure they not only stay out of jail, but off the rack and away from the guillotine.\u00a0 For political professionals and their sponsors, the trends don\u2019t look good.\u00a0 The US is far closer to a kind of spinoff and central collapse than most people perceive.\u00a0 But the Federal Reserve has done the impossible.\u00a0 From a prosperous hard-working nation, it has built a house with only two doors:\u00a0 Zimbabwe or Venezuela.\u00a0 I\u2019m personally going with Venezuela, but I can\u2019t say which one the DC and bi-coastal elites are planning for \u2013 probably both.<\/p>\n

What will the US government bring to bear in its battle to survive?\u00a0 Use of force and seizure of property, control of free speech and information, to include an internet kill switch, all integrated with a digital US currency. This currency will be experimental when it is deployed, much like the various government-funded Covid vaccines.\u00a0 Complaining about and refusing to participate in the digital money rollout will be just as profitable to businesses and individuals as it was during Covid with the experimental vaccines.\u00a0 Another lesson we have been freely offered by our government is the aftermath of January 6, 2021.\u00a0 The ability of the state to do whatever it wishes if it aids the political survival of a candidate like Biden, or a political party, has been on full display for over a year and a half.\u00a0 Meanwhile, DC and Congress have expanded and armed a wide variety of federal agencies<\/a>, from USDA to IRS to FBI to HHS, a trend that\u2019s been observed and reported on for years.<\/p>\n

Second, the US government\u00a0can and must create a context<\/a>\u00a0in which the aforementioned and survival-driven monetary, military and communication controls will be nested.\u00a0 Usually a natural or manmade crisis will work for small states, but for DC, it will take a massive war, one that will truly cause privation on the home front, and one that will capture the fearful imaginations of angry, hungry and confused people.\u00a0 The type of war best suited for US domestic fascismo is one fought overseas, and only enforced domestically, much as in\u00a0World Wars I<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0II.<\/a>\u00a0 If a war actually broke out or was waged on the North American continent, subunits of Americans, geographically, culturally and politically divided would accelerate and radically decentralize, choosing freedom and autonomy in many places, rapidly creating what would be known as the former United States.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s different now,\u00a0 radically different than even twenty years ago, is technology.\u00a0 The US government has the technology to manage and blackout communications and free speech, even a kind of internet kill switch.\u00a0 The US government, with its corporate contracts and dependents, conducts 100% surveillance of the domestic population.\u00a0 The US government has passed executive orders,\u00a0like 13603<\/a>, that streamlines federal controls over every person, place and thing in the country.\u00a0 The US government, and the Fed, will soon be able to enforce a state digital fiat for over 95% of the population overnight.\u00a0 The nukes are better now too \u2013 but if the answer is government survival and domestic control, the threat of nukes may be satisfactory.\u00a0 Or not.<\/p>\n
