Jon Rappoport – February 28, 2022
Something is wrong. And I’m not talking about the screenshots going around purporting to show cardboard weapons in the hands of poor Ukraine civilians, or the death of someone a few years ago dying again on TV in the Ukraine; I’m talking about major in-your-face news outlets working overtime on WAR.
The news is coming too fast and furious—each proclamation more preposterous than the last.
Bottom line: I’m not buying what they’re selling.
Drumbeats of war. You must support “the west.” And that means you must declare Putin is far more evil than Hitler. So say all. So say Democrats and Republicans foaming at the mouth. Keep our planes in the air. Ready the nukes. It just so happens our great Commander-in-Chief is coming on Tuesday night, to deliver his wartime State of the Union to the Congress.
Spray the hall with meth. Members on both sides of the aisle will be standing every twenty seconds to roar with approval as decrepit old Joe—himself pumped full of every drug the docs can think of to keep him on his feet and his mouth working in coordination with the teleprompter—old Joe hurls angry Commander-in-Chief slogans of USA power…and the news heads will be ready to give him HIGH MARKS and try to shove his poll numbers, for the moment, higher…and turn around the mid-term elections…
Beat the drums of war!
“The old man had it in him! Wow! He rocked the house! This was quite a night, Bob! This was Presidential! Both sides of the aisle were screaming at the tops of their lungs. And now we have reports of biker gangs and possibly truckers who want to go to the Ukraine and help the people fight Putin…”
Never mind our lies about COVID.
COVID? Vaccines? Vaccine deaths and injuries? New CDC lies exposed? Mandates? Freedom convoys? Inflation? Never heard of them! THIS IS WAR! Clear the decks. Battle stations, everyone. The Russians are coming!
Speaking of which, where are they in the Ukraine? 150,000 troops have invaded the country?
18,000 auto weapons have been distributed to Ukrainian citizens in Kiev/Kyiv?
So tell me this. Have you seen any video footage of actual armed clashes between Ukrainian civilians/soldiers and Russians? Actual back and forth prolonged shooting? I haven’t.
With the Ukraine press on high alert, and with a zillion cell phones active in the country, I should have seen MANY gun battles, live, by now. If there are any.
Have you heard the word DRONES?
I haven’t. I’d think the Russians have some drones. But no. Seems like all the reported air battles are happening between planes with pilots in cockpits. Do it the old fashioned way.
Did you see the extraordinary footage of a line of Russian tanks and armored vehicles all blown up and twisted on a quiet road in broad daylight?
Were these Russian vehicles operated by remote control from Moscow?
One retired US general claimed on FOX/CNN: these Russian vehicles were sent into the Ukraine with absolutely no thought of what their drivers would do when they quickly ran out of fuel after a few hours—since there are no supply lines. And that was the Putin battle plan. “Drive as far as you can, fire your weapons at tall buildings, empty your fuel capacity, and then just sit there.” REALLY? THAT’S WHAT’S BEEN HAPPENING? SOMEBODY FORGOT ABOUT SUPPLY LINES? We’re supposed to buy that scenario?
TRUST THE PRESS?
Of course, as in every recent war, US TV reporters, “on the ground” in the Ukraine, are doing stand ups in stone quiet areas where nothing at all is happening, and these “reporters” are relaying press updates originating from New York and Washington. That’s standard. “We’re sending you to Kiev/Kyiv on the midnight flight, Fred. Don’t forget your helmet. We’ll feed you AP dispatches through your earpiece and you just repeat them…”
Meanwhile, NATO is on high alert, international payment processors have shut down certain Russian banks and accounts, some government (I missed the country name) is sending jet fighters to the Ukraine.”
Really? Who’s going to pilot those planes? Untrained Ukrainians? “Where’s the brake and the ignition? What are these buttons for?”
Possibly the supplying country will also provide its own pilots? That could get messy very fast. “French pilots shot down a Russian plane this morning. President Macron denied it was an act of war.”
Some Congressman said we should do WHAT? Send people to the Ukraine to enforce a NO-FLY-ZONE over the country? Was he drunk out of his mind? Exactly how do you enforce that? My guess would be: WEAPONS. PLANES.
“Dammit, it’s about time we stood up and fought those Ruskies. Enough posturing. Break out the old films showing schoolkids how to get down under their desks when the nuclear bombs fall on their heads.”
We need a good war. Cleans the pipes. Reinvigorates the blood. Improves sperm count.
“Phil, I want at least one Kiev/Kyiv refugee or displaced person or whatever you call them when they hide underground—I want at least one of these WOMEN or LITTLE KIDS per hour on our national broadcast telling their story, like in the movie Wag the Dog, BECAUSE WE DON’T HAVE ANY FOOTAGE OF THE ACTUAL WAR GOING ON – AND WHY IS THAT? CAN SOMEBODY AROUND HERE TELL ME? I WANT TO SEE STREET BATTLES WITH PEOPLE FALLING DOWN.”
“But, Jack, we don’t have footage of the war because you’re sending our reporters to places where nothing is going on.”
“Is that so? Well, there are people with cell phones. Where is their video?”
“I have no idea.”
Dear reader, there IS a war. Some kind of war. But the shape of it and who’s doing what to who, and how it’s being shaped for public consumption…and whether the shaping IS the war…and exactly what the word WAR means in this case…these are questions whose present answers I’m not buying.
[Wars are political. People don’t create wars. Governments do. People die in wars, governments and politicians don’t. Like George Orwell’s 1984 war (that didn’t actually exist except in the news media) between Oceania and its perpetual enemies, Eastasia and Eurasia. Governments need “enemies” to create a perceived need for “protection” for scared citizens.]
You know, SHOW US A WAR. BEAT THE DRUM. WAG THE DOG!
