Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
The Washington Post has always been a CIA asset. The CIA used the Washington Post to orchestrate the Watergate narrative used to drive President Nixon out of office.
The CIA wanted Nixon gone, because Nixon was threatening the military/security complex’s budget and power by making arms control agreements with the Soviets and by opening to China. The CIA was afraid to assassinate Nixon because of the suspicion it was under for assassinating President Kennedy and Senator Kennedy. So the CIA used the Washington Post to assassinate Nixon politically.
The entire history of the Washington Post is one of fake news. The latest fake news from the disinformation sheet claims that the Russian troop pullback is a “deliberate ruse to mislead the United States and other world powers” about Russia’s planned invasion of Ukraine. “Anonymous US intelligence sources” (the CIA) are cited as the source. https://www.rt.com/russia/549818-washington-believes-moscow-plotting-invasion/
First of all, the Russian troops were part of an exercise, not an invasion plan. But push this fact aside and ask yourself what is the point of Russia concealing its plans? If Russia wants to invade Ukraine, no one on earth can do anything whatsoever about it. So why hide it? Indeed, with satellites overhead a force concentrated for invasion cannot be hidden. The presstitute who wrote the story and the CIA that dictated it are thinking in WW II terms when modern surveillance capabilities did not exist.
Ask yourself also why Russia needs to create a false flag attack in order to justify invading Ukraine. If Russia wants Ukraine, Russia has plenty of up front reasons. One is to prevent Ukraine from being a NATO member and hosting US missile bases on Russia’s border. Another is that Ukraine is part of Russia and had been for 300 years until the Americans broke it off from Russia when Russia was to weak to do anything about it. Another reason is that Ukraine has violated the Minsk Agreement and continues to attack the Russian population in the Donbass region.
In actual fact, Russia doesn’t need any excuse, because no one can stop them.
Also ask yourself what is the point of an excuse. No matter how good it is, Washington and NATO would not believe it. The excuse would do no good and serve no purpose. In fact an excuse would be worse than no excuse, because the excuse would simply result in the endless refutation of the excuse.
If I were Putin and I wanted Ukraine, I would just take it. I would say, you Americans took Iraq and Libya. The Israelis stole Palestine. I’m taking Ukraine.
The real question is one the presstitutes will never address. Does all the focus on an imagined Russian invasion of Ukraine serve to direct attention away from the 150,000 Ukrainian troops on the Donbass border as Ukraine prepares to invade the Donetsk and Lugansk republics that broke away from Ukraine and are in the process of evacuating citizens to Russia in anticipation of a Ukrainian invasion?
The United States does not have a media. It has a propaganda service for the military/security complex, the pharmaceutical industry, and the global elite. It is impossible to wring one word of truth out of the US media.
It is my sincere desire to provide readers of this site with the best unbiased information available, and a forum where it can be discussed openly, as our Founders intended. But it is not easy nor inexpensive to do so, especially when those who wish to prevent us from making the truth known, attack us without mercy on all fronts on a daily basis. So each time you visit the site, I would ask that you consider the value that you receive and have received from The Burning Platform and the community of which you are a vital part. I can't do it all alone, and I need your help and support to keep it alive. Please consider contributing an amount commensurate to the value that you receive from this site and community, or even by becoming a sustaining supporter through periodic contributions.

Bravo.
Word.
‘Does all the focus on an imagined Russian invasion of Ukraine serve to direct attention away from blah blah blah…’
Indeed.
VAIDS? ‘Vaccine’ deaths, injuries? Revolting peasants?
Look, there’s a squirrel!
Absolutely bang on – “Wizard Prang” as we say in British RAF parlance and it is a complete refutation of the Washington Post’s continual disinformation driven by the CIA. I encourage TBPers to read this book for the true history of this evil Globalist network which has been wreaking havoc throughout the world ever since WW2 and having recruited the worst of the Nazi types into the bargain. The Amazon preamble is worth a read in itself:
And of course, the CIA does not act alone; they recruit all manner of NGOs and consultants like Bains &Co ( https://www.bain.com/ ) and who blotted their copybook in South Africa recently:

Also of course the black ops actors, who are in fact just well-paid mercenaries, are engaged as ‘The Jackals” when an assassination is required like in Tanzania recently. John Perkins has the general story:
Ah yes. Bain Capital. Formerly headed by Willard “Mitt” Romney. Matt Taibbi described him thusly….
Mitt Romney is one of the greatest and most irresponsible debt creators of all time. In the past few decades, in fact, Romney has piled more debt onto more unsuspecting companies, written more gigantic checks that other people have to cover, than perhaps all but a handful of people on planet Earth…
Mitt Romney, it turns out, is the perfect frontman for Wall Street’s greed revolution. He’s not a two-bit, shifty-eyed huckster like Lloyd Blankfein. He’s not a sighing, eye-rolling, arrogant jerkwad like Jamie Dimon. But Mitt believes the same things those guys believe: He’s been right with them on the front lines of the financialization revolution, a decades-long campaign in which the old, simple, let’s-make-stuff-and-sell-it manufacturing economy was replaced with a new, highly complex, let’s-take-stuff-and-trash-it financial economy. Instead of cars and airplanes, we built swaps, CDOs and other toxic financial products. Instead of building new companies from the ground up, we took out massive bank loans and used them to acquire existing firms, liquidating every asset in sight and leaving the target companies holding the note.

Oh, brilliant BL – well found – I can add this to the list-library I am building for if/when they call for evidence in the Grand Jury Court of Public Opinion which is going on now:

“The CIA** used the Washington Post* to orchestrate the Watergate narrative used to drive President Nixon out of office.”
Took us off the gold standard/ “established diplomatic relations” with Hecho en Chine -1971. (Mere coincidence)
“gave” us the EPA, First federal affirmative action, boosted SSI, clean water act, etc.
2) “Withdrew the troops from south Vietnam in 1973, and ended the draft”…
2) TRANSLATION: cheaper way to export/import HEROIN firmly established, ‘Bone Spurs’, etc. RATIONALIZATIONS no longer needed for the Ruling Class.

Washington Post owned by Nash Holdings, a company controlled by Jeff Bezos. His company Amazon knows how $458 Billion of American retail is spent and by whom it is spent.
All mainstream media is controlled by the Global Cabal. In the last two years it changed to a new level. 100 % propaganda.
They took out JFK with a magic bullet and coined the term “conspiracy theorist” to shut down any discussion contrary to the official narrative; and the term is still even in use today to advance other narratives like Covid.
They got rid of Nixon and consolidated their power over the ensuing several decades.
But they were later caught off guard by a vain real-estate magnate – a bloviating billionaire whose failed casino ventures were bailed out by a Rothschild banker?
OK, I guess. Anything is possible.
