Is the United States really so iron? Former Pentagon official: Must be prepared for war against Russia

Text/Walking Stuka

When an empire has serious internal problems, it always tries to divert the water, which is a distinctive feature of imperialism, especially in the united States recently; as the internal crisis deepens, the howl of "preparing for war" over Washington becomes more and more intense.

According to a report on the Russia Today website on January 12, Evelyn Farkas, a former assistant deputy minister for Eurasian affairs at the Pentagon, recently published an opinion piece calling for "readiness for war against Russia" on the pretext of the Ukrainian crisis.

According to Farkas, Russia is undermining international law, and the recent unrest in Kazakhstan has fueled Moscow's audacity, making an invasion of Ukraine "more likely"; she also fully adheres to Secretary of State Blinken's rhetoric a week ago, accusing Russia of trying to "rebuild the Soviet Union", which happens to be the first step in this ambitious plan.

These days, the United States has a new narrative about Russia's role in the Ukraine crisis. On January 14, local time, a number of Ukrainian government websites were hacked, and CNN conveniently threw out an article claiming that this was part of Russia's "hybrid war"; the article quoted a Pentagon official as saying that the intelligence that the United States has mastered proves that Russia plans to deploy a group of agents in the Wudong region in advance and will use explosives to attack Russian or proxy troops. "Circle a useful, knowledgeable point, "operation false flag" is a Western military term, that is, disguised as an enemy to blame, the United States is accusing Russia of trying to blame Ukraine, thus creating a war pretext for invading Ukraine.

Although this report has been "confirmed" by the Pentagon and the White House, both claiming to have "credible evidence", they have not yet come up with any decent evidence, on the grounds that they "do not want to fight grass and snakes".

Seriously, when it comes to the ability to write stories, Hollywood screenwriters can't catch up with Washington; the best way to "don't want to fight the grass and snake" is to say nothing, rather than saying only half of what is now. If Washington had made one-tenth of its efforts to spread rumors and smears when it was fighting the epidemic or solving people's livelihood problems, the domestic situation would not have fallen into the current situation. With the pandemic raging, the logistics crisis worsening again, and unrelenting inflation, Washington has had to seek a dangerous war game to find a way out for itself.

The United States now desperately needs an external enemy to maintain its own internal superficial unity, and both China and Russia are forced into a situation where "people sit at home and the pot comes from heaven." Anyone with a discerning eye can see how ridiculous Washington's accusations against Russia for "rebuilding the Soviet Union" are as ridiculous as accusations of China's so-called "genocide" and "seeking an alternative to U.S. hegemony" — in the face of wave after wave of crises, Washington's brain is not clear, Biden has just suffered a major legislative failure, he called for reform of the voting rules in the Senate, but Republican Leader McConnell came very simply, "Well said, but don't say it next time."

When the United States began to worry that the country was heading for "collapse or division," it saw anyone as an "enemy." We must be wary of this mentality of the United States, because as the sense of failure increases, it will become more hysterical than ever; in the recent rounds of negotiations between the United States and Russia on Ukraine and European security, the United States has shown a very emotional and completely unsolved attitude – the same is true for China, and Washington desperately needs a few hard bones to bow down before it, although this is not an possible thing.

We still have the sentence, "He is stronger than him, and the breeze blows on the hills; he crosses him, and the bright moon shines on the river"; concentrate on doing his own things well, and still need to be afraid of the United States?
