Important guest post below by Martin Armstrong of Armstrong Economics, providing historical context for today’s European thirst for war. (Parenthetical statements in italics were added by myself for purposes of clarity and additional research).
It has begun. German hospitals (and schools) are preparing for war. Germany has embarked on its first permanent foreign deployment of its troops outside of Germany since the days of Hitler and World War II.
Jouchim-Friedrich Merz, the man set to be Germany’s next chancellor, is a very dangerous warmonger, and Germany’s parliament has approved the dispatch of 5,000 German troops to eastern Lithuania, along NATO’s eastern boundary. This is truly a historic event. I was in Tokyo when the government wanted to send troops to the Middle East, but the US had restricted its constitution to confine Japanese troops within 200 miles of their border. The politicians wanted to change the constitution, and hundreds of thousands of Japanese protested, fearing the military would rise again.
Because of the Cold War, the CIA funded the birth of the EU Community as a unified Europe to be the buffer against Communist Russia. Therefore, the restrictions imposed on Japan were NOT applied to Germany since the CIA was exploiting Germany. After World War II, the Allied powers subjected both Germany and Japan to strict military restrictions. Still, the nature and evolution of these limitations differed significantly due to geopolitical contexts and post-war developments, as the CIA/Neocons were focused on Communist Russia rather than China.
Consequently, this deployment of German troops to Lithuania is a NATO deployment, and the German people have no say in whether Merz is taking Germany head-first into war. Merz wants to punish Hungary for refusing to declare war on Russia.
This deployment of German troops to Lithuania is truly a historic moment for Germany. This means German troops will be continuously deployed outside of Germany, and Merz can’t wait to send troops to Ukraine. Hitler’s excuse to send troops into Poland was to protect German citizens living there in the regions taken from Germany and handed to Poland after World War I. Is Merz sending troops to defend the Lithuanians?
Meanwhile, Putin is no fool, and neither is China. They are now both aware that NATO intends to create some sort of false flag to invade Russia. This is the end goal. Putin has just issued the biggest military call-up in years with 160,000 more soldiers. While the Western press continues to paint Russia as collapsing and troops are deserting all to justify a NATO invasion of Russia, the truth is that the Russian people are coming to realize that the West hates all Russians. They are fighting for not just their country, but for their families.
Kaja Kallas (the EU’s top diplomat who suggested in a May 2024 debate that Russia should be broken up into several smaller countries after it is defeated in its war with Ukraine) is extremely dangerous. She is the person who hates all Russians and said that Russia is too big and it needs to be broken up (Kallas isn’t the only Western political leader who believes this — it was actually proposed by the U.S. government’s Helsinki Commission in a June 23, 2022 hearing before Congress).
Kallas ignores the facts of this war and that the Donbas was promised the right to secede with the Minsk Agreement brokered in 2014 by Germany and France. That was an outright lie. Can you imagine if Putin said that the EU should be broken up or the United States? The press would be going crazy. But it’s perfectly fine for the West to hate Russians and turn a blind eye to this thirst for war, pretending that they can defeat Russia without losing one European?
Angela Merkel even admitted publicly that they NEVER intended to honor the Minsk peace agreement. They played Putin for a fool to buy time for Ukraine to build an army. This has been the plot to conquer Russia from the outset. Europe is desperate for war. They can taste the blood of Russians on their lips. But that is going to be mixed with European blood.
