Because we\u2019re going to talk about serious matters and emotions will only be a hindrance.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">0:14<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Let me take a pen to draw some things\u2026 So, what have our geopolitical opponents been doing for many centuries? They have a specific routine, check this:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">0:26<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">India, year 1949. Our British \u201cpartners\u201d, due to USSR winning WWII, are getting pushed out of the country.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">0:40<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Yes, the Indian people were clamoring for independence, but they could keep clamoring for another century if not for Soviet tanks in Berlin &#8211; and, more importantly, Soviet tanks in nearby Korea.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">0:56<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So in this situation, England and other colonial powers had to also show they\u2019re for freedom and equality, so they had to free India<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">1:06<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So what do they do? They divide India into two parts. They create Pakistan. For those who don\u2019t know, Pakistan never existed before, it\u2019s an artificial state<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">1:16<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">The very name \u201cPakistan\u201d was made up by Indian college students &#8211; in London, of course. The country was torn in half according to religious affiliation:<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">1:26<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Hindus go to \u201cIndia\u201d, Muslims go to \u201cPakistan\u201d. So, people get displaced, national tragedy\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">1:36<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">What was actually done? India [broke free] &#8211; they created anti-India. And called it Pakistan. So when they lose control over a country, they make a counterbalance.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">1:49<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">And then, simply sic them on each other, support terrorist organizations, and so on. Pakistan it a hotbed of [Islamic terrorism] even now, India has local terrorists and separatists as well\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">2:02<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">I\u2019ll point this out again: When a land slips from their control, they make a counterbalance. India &#8211; anti-India.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">2:15<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Same year, 1949, China is gripped by a three-year civil war. In 1945, Japanese were kicked out, they talked for a year, and started fighting.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">2:28<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">USSR supports Chairman Mao, USA supports Chiang Kai-Shek. Mao wins. What do the Americans do?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">2:37<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">They make anti-China. They evacuate remainder of Chiang Kai-Shek\u2019s men, shield them with their navy, and create Taiwan\u2026 On the island of Fomosa. China &#8211; anti-China.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">2:52<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">There are plenty of other very similar examples, I won\u2019t get into them now\u2026 Russia, 2011 elections. What did they do?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">3:00<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Navalny, Bolotnaya protests, \u201cwhite bands\u201d everywhere, discord in all political parties &#8211; Russia is on the verge of a coup\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">3:15<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">The whole thing ended positively &#8211; Putin [was democratically elected] president. They lost the influence over Russia. What do they do? They make anti-Russia.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">3:26<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Where? In Ukraine. As soon as Putin became president, as soon as they realized they can\u2019t destabilize the country from within, they started making anti-Russia in Ukraine.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">3:41<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">But, you know, they use \u201cfree market\u201d principles. Controlled by them, yes, but still \u201cfree\u201d. So they were planning use the [Ukrainian] elections in 2015 and make them \u201cfree\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">3:58<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">But, you know we forced their hand, Yanukovich refused to sign Euroassociation, so they had to go with the bloody, illegal coup instead &#8211; to blame Russia for it, and create anti-Russia<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">4:15<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So what are the prospects? Same as everywhere else. They make a counterbalance, give it money, weapons, and eventually &#8211; force it to attack<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">4:29<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, after the coup they started preparing Ukraine for a war with Russia. Is it weaker? Of course. But it\u2019s not a small state, it has over 40 million population!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">4:44<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">If USA arm and indoctrinate them enough, it could work very well. And it\u2019s important to understand that they don\u2019t need Ukraine to win, they just need the war to happen.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">4:59<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">The more Russians and Ukrainians eliminate each other &#8211; the better for Americans, so that\u2019s what they want.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">5:07<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">What can Russia do? In Ukraine, forces appear that do not want this scenario to happen &#8211; DPR and LPR.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">5:30<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, Ukraine was made into anti-Russia, and DPR and LPR are anti-anti-Russia.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">5:39<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">But they appeared on their own &#8211; that\u2019s important. We support them, however, because while they exist they prevent Ukraine [from attacking Russia].<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">5:58<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">While the people of Donbass are fighting to change the course of Ukraine, it can not turn to attack Russia.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">6:07<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">And this is exactly what happens. Yes, the Kiev regime is screaming that Russia is the aggressor, that Russian troops are invading &#8211; but they did not declare war or martial law, did not sever diplomatic ties,<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">6:20<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">they even, according to some Orwellian logic, buy [discounted] coal and electricity from the \u201cinvaders\u201d.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">6:27<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Can you imagine USSR buying Ruhr coal from Hitler during the war? Of course not.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">6:37<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, let\u2019s sum this up &#8211; without emotions. If we don\u2019t counteract the American plans of creating anti-Russia from Ukraine, they\u2019re certainly sic it on Russia.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">6:54<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Together with the ISIS advance through Central Asia, we\u2019d have on two fronts, the same way we were set up in 1930s &#8211; Japan advancing through Mongolia, and Hitler through Poland<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">7:10<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">By the way, for a long while Poland was supposed to be his ally on the path to Moscow &#8211; but then plans changed, so to speak<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">7:18<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, if we betray DPR\/LPR, if they are destroyed militarily &#8211; the American plan will be brought into action<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">7:33<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">The fall of Donetsk and Lugansk would mean Russia is next, within 5 years or so. Direct attack, or some sort of border conflict. They have the perfect excuse &#8211; \u201cGive back Crimea, [damn its population]!\u201d<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">7:49<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">And the West will support this excuse. So, Russia\u2019s [geopolitical] interests, even without considering our nation\u2019s moral obligations &#8211; supporting our brothers, the oppressed, etc, &#8211;<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">8:07<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">without emotions, purely pragmatically, Russia can\u2019t throw Donetsk and Lugansk to the wolves for these reasons.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">8:14<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Now, another very important question: Can Russia officially recognize these territories?<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">8:23<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">If we do, the [Anti-Russia] scenario will be put into action: Ukraine will say &#8211; they are now separate states, we will deal with them later, first we have to deal with their masters in Russia and take back Crimea!<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">8:42<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, when DPR and LPR separate from Ukraine, this whole American scenario becomes viable again.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">8:49<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, even if this opinion is unpopular, in the common interest of Russian world [all Slavic countries] , DPR and LPR have to stay part of Ukraine.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">9:08<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">They are holding Ukraine back from being dragged into a war with Russia.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">9:17<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">This is where our foreign minister\u2019s declarations about Ukraine\u2019s territorial integrity stem from, this is why we keep trying to get them to settle things by negotiation\u2026<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">9:30<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Because Americans aren\u2019t doing that great financially, either. We have to support Donetsk and Lugansk &#8211; that\u2019s 2-3 million people, and they have to support the rest of Ukraine &#8211; that\u2019s 40 million.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">9:47<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, those that understand the rules of this game know what has to be done, and the hotheads among our patriots do not.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">10:00<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">That is the difference between a commander on the ground, who has to take a specific objective, and the general in charge, who has to win the war as a whole, not focus on one spot.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">10:15<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Currently, D\/LPR are fighting not just for their interests &#8211; they are fighting for the lives of 40 million Ukrainians who, if D\/LPR lose, would be sent to fight Russia and die by the hundreds of thousands, even millions.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">10:35<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So Donetsk and Lugansk are protecting the Russian world as a whole &#8211; both Ukraine and Russia. So we can never \u201cbetray\u201d them [and let them be defeated] &#8211; that would be the same as betraying ourselves.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">10:48<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">Just like denying Crimea the right to reunification would be [betraying ourselves] &#8211; it would lead to riots in Moscow within a couple months.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">11:00<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">So, when you try to understand geopolitical actions &#8211; don\u2019t judge based on emotions.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line\">\n<div class=\"caption-line-time\">11:06<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\">President of Belarus flies to Kiev &#8211; no emotions, calculate why. He says something about the dollar &#8211; same. If you try to understand what\u2019s going on in D\/LPR based on emotions, you won\u2019t be able to.<\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"caption-line-text\"><a href=\"http:\/\/russia-insider.com\/en\/putins-ukraine-strategy-brilliantly-explained-top-russian-politician-video\/ri8001#\" target=\"_blank\">Source<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Same strategy came in to work when Israel was created &#8211; The British empire requested the Arabs to attack Israel, as newly published archives in Syria show. &nbsp; &nbsp; Well worth watching, but if you dont have the time the transcript is\u00a0below.
