NATO missile shield: WHY?
#6
Peter - thank you. I entirely agree about the importance of the Rozoff article.

It may be that certain leading Russian politicians are in the process of fattening their bank balances. Whether the Russian military will allow their country to be sold out is an intriguing question.

However, I also find the argument in the excerpt below compelling:

Quote:In an analysis published three days before the Lisbon summit, Victor Kovalev, a corresponding member of Russia’s Military Science Academy, warned of what confronts Russia as it intensifies its collaboration with NATO:

“The NATO summit which will convene in Lisbon on November 19-20 will adopt the alliance’s new strategic concept switching NATO from regional defense to global-scale missions. In practice, the reform will institutionalize the West’s victory in the Cold World War III. The already visible results of the victory include the ongoing departure from the Yalta-Potsdam system and the downscaling of the role played by the UN – or at least by the UN Security Council – in international relations.”

“The new world order built as we watch on the ruins of the Yalta-Potsdam system automatically energizes a range of negative global processes and is prone with new wars or major regional conflicts. At the moment, the situation in the Far East already appears similar to that in Europe on the eve of World War II.” This week’s developments on the Korean peninsula bear out the contention.

“Under the circumstances, Russia’s priority should be to avoid being dragged into the epicenter of the coming collapse. Hoping to get rid of competitors in the post-capitalist world and to enforce a ‘final solution’ of the Russian problem, the West is luring Russia into this very epicenter.” [22]

For me, the question is whether Mother Russia batting her eyelids at NATO equates to luring her into "the epicenter of the coming collapse".

Or whether Russia is simply buying some time.

If the Euro collapses, or Germany withdraws and reintroduces the Deutsche Mark, then Europe will be a radically different and more volatile continent.
