After Sanctions Failed Ten Times | The US & NATO Turn to the International Criminal Court, ICC

The US and NATO have used several international tools to bring down The Russian Federation, President Putin and cause regime change in Russia. So far all have failed. There were ten rounds of sanctions. There were failed price caps on Russian oil. The International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) was summoned when Russian Ally Forces gained control over the Zaporizhzhya Nuclear Power Plant (ZNPP). It found no shelling of the plant by the Russian military as claimed by Kiev. The United Nations, its General Assembly, Human Rights Council and Security Council have been used to go after and turn the world against Russia. Amnesty International was attacked by pro-Ukraine voices for its 2022 report condemning the Ukrainian military for surrounding themselves with civilians. That hurt the Ukraine good, Russia bad narrative. Using civilians as shields is against international law. The ICC did not respond in kind to the Amnesty International report. Now the International Criminal Court (ICC) has been tasked to bring down The Russian Federal and its leader, President Putin. It has issued warrants for the arrest of President Putin and Russia’s commissioner for children’s rights, Maria Lvova-Belova. The ICC has lost credibility in it being fair and just as it targets Africans. In doing the US's bidding, all of these international organizations have lost credibility due to their selective hypocritical partial biased attempts at justice.

Crash Course | Military Training of The Ukrainian Military and Its International Legion (Mercenaries)

,

Can there be a successful crash military training course in just thirty days, four weeks? Attempts to answer this question contain much debate from several sides. Ukrainian civilians are being recruited to fight, given a crash course in military training and sent directly onto the battlefield. To help decide an answer to this question, a comparison to regular military training is necessary. This article is a brief view of what is involved in regular military training. It will compare the first thirty days (four weeks) of regular military training with the training received in the current US and NATO crash course for the Ukrainian military. The first thirty days of military training only cover part of the Basic Training (BCT) period. While reviewing the complete training and requirements for military recruits, it will be asked if that amount of training can be compacted into a thirty day time period. Given the conflict in Ukraine is very much its proxy war against Russia, focus will be on military training within the United States.

War In Ukraine | United States Intentions - Mission Creep

 On February 2, 2023, PressTV spoke with guests Sara Flounders of International Action Center in New York and Journalist John Bosnitch in Belgrade on the US involvement in the military conflict in Ukraine. Some of their talking points are:

1. US Mission Creep in Ukraine
2. US years of planning for a military conflict in Ukraine
3. US intentions in Ukraine 
4. US Creation of a Zelensky 
5. US timeline for the conflict in Ukraine
6. Finality of the Special Military Operation - Eventual Peace

I have followed Ms Flounders and International Action Center for years going back to the invasions into Iraq and Afghanistan. The International Action Center was created by Ramsey Clark and many anti-war and community activists opposing the first war on Iraq. Ms. Flounders brings an internal American perspective that only an autobiography can give.

PressTV Spotlight 2/2/2023 

"The war in Ukraine"

The Russian President Vladimir Putin has said Russia would defeat Ukraine in the grip of a new incarnation of Nazism. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky continues to ask for handouts, this time for F-16 jets which the US and its allies like Germany have rejected, for now.

In this edition of the Spotlight, we will look at this war and see how close or how far the warring sides are when it comes to peace.

Anti Russia Sentiment | Ray McGovern on America's Use of "Others" to Gain Consent For War

As the world endures another United States' war, Ray McGovern speaks to Schiller Institute Harley Schlanger on how the American government gains consent for its wars. The use of the concept of "others" is to make targeted people seem less than human. The video of their discussion is below with a link. The Special Military Operation in Ukraine is indeed a United States proxy war against Russia. It is supported by the confessions of Angela Merkel, Francois Hollande and Petro Poroshenko on the true intent of the Minsk Agreements. The concept of "other" is again used to gain the consent of the American people for another United States' imperialist war.

Ray McGovern details examples found in America's history where the concept of "others" has been used to establish hate towards a targeted group. The hate fosters a sense of superiority over the targeted group. The three; hate, sense of superiority and concept of "others" are used to establish an entitlement. Armed with a sense of entitlement, Americans consent to the government that represents them and its treatment of targeted people. Ray McGovern reveals how the concept of "others" is married to Americans' consent for their government's continuous wars.
