Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts
A wider war is Washington’s goal
Clarification: In this article I write that under the neoconservative Wolfowitz Doctrine of US hegemony, “the Kremlin has two choices. Russia can surrender its sovereignty or Russia can destroy the West. Russia has no other alternative. The entire world needs to understand this.” I am not advocating that Russia destroy the West. I am simply pointing out that for three decades the West has confronted Russia with this limited choice. Putin himself has complained about it over and over. I find it astonishing that the Western “foreign policy community,” whatever that is, has permitted a policy that corners a powerful nuclear power such as Russia in this way. And it continues. Now we have Lithuania blocking Russia’s access to part of Russia. This is insanity. This is confirming Russian conclusions that only force can constrain the West.
As I have many times written, the Kremlin’s Ukraine operation cannot be limited. Washington will not permit it to be limited. Washington has already widened the conflict, and is now widening the conflict further. The insane Jewish neoconservatives who have control over US foreign policy have prevailed on tiny, helpless Lithuania to violate the agreement with Russia for the provision of Kaliningrad and has received a Russian ultimatum. The moronic State Department spokesman Ned Price dismissed the ultimatum as “bluster.” The White House idiot says Washington backs Lithuania. In other words, Washington is egging on a wider war.
The conflict in Donbass has gone slowly, because it is a war in the midst of Russian people attached to Ukraine by Soviet leaders. The Russian troops are fighting under restrictions to minimize death and destruction in the Donbass region, from which Ukrainian forces are being driven out and destroyed. A wider war will not be fought among Russian populations. The world has never seen such recklessness as Washington and NATO are demonstrating. The sordid and utterly corrupt Democrats desperately need a war in order to rally Americans to the government and prevent a Democrat wipeout in the election. In their effort to hold on to power, the Democrats and whore media are widening the war. This is dangerous beyond belief. The Russian government declared some time ago that Russia will never again fight a war on her own territory.
It is astounding that the Kremlin believed that their intervention in Donbass could be limited. How the Kremlin managed to misread the West after such a total rebuffing of the Kremlin’s efforts to reach a mutual security agreement with the West is inexplicable. Apparently, the Kremlin has not taken the Wolfowitz Doctrine seriously. The Kremlin and the dumbshit Russian Atlanticist Integrationists need to learn it by heart and repeat it every morning upon awakening as it is the operative doctrine. Under this doctrine the Kremlin has two choices. Russia can surrender its sovereignty or Russia can destroy the West. Russia has no other alternative. The entire world needs to understand this.

Again I ask: Is the West pushing Russia too far? Read these high level Russian statements and answer the question for yourself:
Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov noted on Monday that Vilnius’s decision was “unprecedented” and “a violation of anything and everything.”
Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova stated that Vilnius’s “provocative” actions are a violation of the country’s international legal obligations to allow the transit of cargo between Russia and Kaliningrad. She said that Russia sees this move as “openly hostile” and that unless Lithuania immediately lifts these restrictions, Russia reserves the right to “defend its national interests.”
The head of Russia’s commission for the defense of state sovereignty, Andrey Klimov, has argued that Lithuania’s move was an act of “direct aggression” against Moscow and that unless the EU brought its member state to heel, Russia would have a free hand to “solve the problem of the Kaliningrad transit created by Lithuania by ANY means chosen by us.”
Washington and its European puppets are intentionally provoking conflict between Lithuania and Russia: https://www.lewrockwell.com/2022/06/tyler-durden/russia-demands-lithuania-lift-openly-hostile-blockade-panic-buying-ensues/
Russian attitudes are hardening
The insane neoconservatives who control US foreign policy are leading us to nuclear war
Russia will never trust the West again – Kremlin

https://www.rt.com/russia/557539-putin-deployment-s-500-defense-systems/
I know of no reason other than delusions of power for Washington to expect Russia and China to subordinate their sovereignty and their interests to Washington. This totally unreal expectation of the neoconservatives is leading to Armageddon.

” The Kremlin is stupid. I know more about military strategy than Putin, Sun-Tzu , Clausewitz and Bullwinkle combined, yet not onr of these Kremlin clods asked me. I could’ve been a contender”
Paul ” Past Fresh Date” Roberts
Hey Flash, take your snark and go push your stupidity somewhere else. This is a damn serious topic and here you are acting like a sixteen year old smart ass.
And you’re acting like a scared shitless diabetic old idiot boomer staring hopelessly into the vast chasm of utter chaos you voted for decades to create. Suck it.
@ “Flasher” – Wow…You scumbag, millennial faggot.
We are gonna wipe all you liberal, commie fags out one by one.
Millennials are PUBLIC ENEMY #1.
ha ha ha….don’t glow me , bro.
Congratulations, fluffer! You lose the interwebz today! And…my oh my…what a queer little name you picked out for yourself! Well, TazerFace was already taken, so I guess We’ll let that slide.
Given the fact that the subject is so “serious”, MAYBE you ought to investigate all claims seriously before jumping to your “serious” conclusions…or you could just go back to sleep.
Flash, How have you lived this long past your fresh date? Stupidity usually kills quicker.
If stupidity was such a quick killer, you and the Empire of Lies would have been deceased decades ago.
We’d never have made it out of the Garden of Eden if stupidity killed quickly.
No one should worry about getting nuked. Nuclear bombs aren’t real and nuclear energy is fake and gay too.
Pure stupidity^
I’m guessing you are not excited about USA going back to the flat moon either? Non -binary, bruh. It’s who we are.
“The second Artemis flight is a crewed mission around the moon in 2024. In 2025, the third launch will be a crewed lunar landing.
Even though NASA plans to put the first ‘woman’ on the moon in 2025, with how woke culture is going, what’s to say the first gender-non-binary astronaut will beat a woman to the lunar surface? ”

Pure stupidity^
Are you a Putin Iron Fist in Europe supporter too, round earther?
High inflation is a small price to pay for muh freedom ! And I’ll still have my beanie weenies and imitation Vienna sausage for July 4th too, because freedom ain’t free. #SupportTheTroops #MakeWarNotBabies .
“There is a great deal of Americans where it is uncomfortable that they’re spending more, but they are not gonna go under. You’ve got to stop complaining…”
As articulate as she is attractive.
Join the illiterati….
Kamala’s sister, right?
Wow! That was more entertaining than the article!
To ‘flashy’ moron; “woman’ on the moon in 2025” is a code…
Shit stirrer!!!
lol
you fuckin’ crazy?
Damn, Paul came right out with the JQ.
There is no room for that kind of circumspection when civilization is on the line.
Escalation upon escalation upon escalation …a little here, a little there …. all provocations courtesy of the USA!USA!USA! …… until ….KABOOM!!”
Couple days ago Putin again talked about his “red lines”. Unlike our former Kneegrow president, Putin will not reveal details. Only he and his inner circle now what that red line is, and what the devastating consequences will be.
Dementia Joe is hell bent on finding out.
Good news! Even at this moment I am sure that Dementia is working on America’s response to whatever Putin does ….. a new round of crippling sanctions that will end Russia.
Why did Israhell bomb the CIVILIAN airport in Damascus?? What a LOATHSOME shithole nation.
Shut up antisemite….dey a god’s people…reeeee
You gonna have to start adding —> /s <— for da peeps that ain't got no sarcasm gene.
No one wants to attack Russia. All Russia has to do is to stop invading other independent nations, and no one will give a hoot about Russia. And stop murdering women and children, targeting hospitals and schools, and raping and pillaging with a wild abandon … you know, stop being such scum.
The destruction and mass slaughter Russia rained on Syria, Libya and Iraq is just appalling… smh.
That was sarc, right?
Pure stupidity^
Wears a mask, got vaxxxed ^^
uh, Russia is just following our playbook. you just described what we’ve been doing for decades, and Russia had more cause than any of our moves did, because they were defending ethnic russians who had declared themselves sovereign nations, from genocide by Ukrinians who have a racial theory all their own.
uh, no they are not.
Our “playbook” involves losing (or, stalemating) every fucking war since WWII.
Russia does not start wars.
Russia ends wars.
Obviously an addict of MSM–probably the Ukraine channel. What’s the next current thing you’ll educate us on?
I guess its ok for the US to overthrow the constitutionally elected government of Ukraine and initiate hostilities there for the purpose of threatening Russia. But Putin bad.
And nobody could count all the innocent humans the US has slaughtered since the military industrial complex (MIC) took over the country after WWII. All in the name of US global hegemony. But Putin bad.
I simply pray that Russia (via BRICS) will dethrone the US dollar as the worlds reserve currency before bitch slapping Lithuania or at least waits until after the US mid terms. The Fed is bankrupting the EU Central Bank with these interest rate hikes. There is enormous resistance to war by EU citizens and they can’t afford war anyway. BRICS will put the MIC on its heels as unlimited dollar printing will have to cease.
Anyone of you who thinks Putin bad really needs to understand that the US MIC is the culprit here and continuing to drink the MIC kool aid is bad for you and indeed the entire planet.
Now where is that bag of popcorn when I need it.
Better stock up. 50 lb. bag still around $30 at Sams or Costco. Keep it dry with your ammo and they will both still pop even 30 years later. You’ll be glad you did.
What the morons in Washington do not realize, is that if Russia does bomb us, it will start a civil war here and a good portion of the politicians will be hung just like the Italians did to Benito Mussolini. That is, if Russia does not bomb us into oblivion with their new hypersonic weapons.
This hate for Russia has become psychopathic, and the warmongers pushing this idiocy need to be taken down HARD, we don’t care who they are, or what clout they believe they have. Does Hillarious Clinton ring any bells?
If Republicans can just take back the house in November, we can get the derailed Trump train back on the track and MAGA on into the 22nd century. #LockHerUp
Lol
Commie faggot… STFU and suck a dick.
Butt plug batteries dead, bruh?
Hey! Tazerface! Seems like your mind stays on the topic of queers and dicksuckers almost constantly. You ever hear of Sigmund Freud?
if voting really worked they would make it illegal
There are no good guys here. Yes the west has been provoking Russia, but in turn Russia (Putin) want the USSR back. They need this as well as China needs to control the pacific. They need this to supplant the West as the main power in the coming NWO. Putin openly just said that Russia is building the NWO. This coming war will be over just that, this is for all the marbles.
A good first step for us might be closing our borders. We’re so lame we can’t do that. We aren’t going to influence major powers with what we have going on here. The Uniparty has made us a lame joke.
Dear BP Administrator, please… you need to set up this comment section to where YOU approve comments before they’re published. The trolls are out in force and detract greatly from your otherwise excellent web site. A “person” named Flash is one of the worse today… time to do some selective suppression of “free speech”… if a person can’t communicate intelligently then they shouldn’t have a platform.
Don’t deplatform me, bruh.
And who are you, exactly?
Are you incapable of simply reading “flash” and skipping the rest?
RAFO. There are plenty of moderated sites. Fuck off to one of them. Don’t fuck with TBP.
Amen.
I don’t do snarc everyday, but when I do vaginas begin to spontaneously bleed.
I had no idea TBP had so many boomer Karens lurking.
No shit. A bunch of Karen’s too dumb to understand sarcasm. But worse they think the earth is round and we sent men to the moon. No helping them. No more awakened than the woke.
I’ve been reading this site daily for 5 years or more and one thing I’ve noticed is that regardless of the information in the articles most of these dumbasses never seem the learn anything. They just a comment the same things over and over- like they haven’t learned anything new since 3rd grade.
You are to dumb too even know who you are.
Vote harder Karen’s- Trump will surely save your bacon.
Who are you insulting here? Karens or Boomers? And does that statement include your own yeast encrusted vagina as well?
Beware! Zombies like flash are among us.
Free speech for Zombies. #ZombiesRPeoplesToo
The degenerate globohomo West can’t help itself. I won’t rest until it has globohomo’ed the entire White Race. Then the world.
We’re all 16 now….reeeeeee
If there were a way Putin could nuke DC, San Fag Cisco ,Jew York City ,Shitcago etc without destroying the whole rotten world I’d be all for it.
Behold ye of little faith. Salvation is at hand.
Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley appeared to confirm to Fox News on Wednesday that she is at least considering a run for the White House in 2024, telling host Harris Faulkner on “The Faulkner Focus” that she will reveal her decision on a potential bid early next year.

Nikki is running for Veep.
Damn fool for thinking anyone in the Khazar controlled GOP had his back.
“Derrick Evans, 37, who pleaded guilty to a felony civil disorder charge, told the judge that he regrets his actions every day and is a “good person who unfortunately was caught up in a moment.”
“I will forever bear the reminder that I made a crucial mistake. I’ve let down myself, I’ve let down my community and most importantly I’ve let down my family,” Evans told the judge.”

Go ahead and keep rattling the cage. Mr. Putin is a very intellectual individual. He will protect his Country and its People. Unlike Biden, Putin believes in protecting his own. I do believe that Mr. Putin will act accordingly and I would respect any action he may take to secure his Nations Sovereignty . We would not expect any less from our President. (The truly elected President).
Biden’s own are the Synagogues of Satan.
biden and his ilk will do anything to start WWIII. They need depopulation (NWO) they need an excuse to postpone or cancel the November mid-terms, and they don’t care how many people it kills as long as they have their bunkers to hide in once it starts.
President Putin,
please hold off your liberation of Kaliningrad, at least until the American mid terms are over.
This will give the US people a chance to help rid themselves of many corrupt globalists and their minions that have embedded themselves in US political parties esp among the Democrats.
The world cannot afford any action from Russia (as justified as it might be) that might extends the shelf life of American political psychopaths.
It appears, you haven’t been paying attention. We aren’t voting our way out of this. No one is coming to save us. They hate us and want us dead.
But, but, but Orange man.
Well heck, someone gets it.
I have an idea that something large will be happening soon. Aside from the chemical genocide and engineered famine. That something will propel us into a ground war. I suspect US troops on the ground in europe and total collapse stateside. At this point i wouldn’t rule out a zombie apocalypse, or invaders from mars. One thing i can absolutely guarantee is that this entire shit show is a top down cinematic production and most of the extras have no idea, and not a clue whats coming.
Christ is the Way, the Truth and the Life. There is salvation in no other.
No one is on our side, and as you perfectly stated “no one is coming to save us.”
There is but one path left to travel. God is making this real easy on us. I wonder how we will respond.
Why is it that Russian can do the things they do (destroy, murder, rape & plunder) Ukraine but if the west does it’s the end of the world ? Russia goes into Syria at the invitation of the government but if NATO goes into Ukraine at the invitation of Ukraine it’s WW3 for Paul Roberts ? He has been wrong so many times I can’t keep count.
Yes, it is quite obvious they are poking the bear to align with the New World Ordjure. But what about the China problem? Why is it white Youaceapeons that must align?
I applaud PCR directly naming the jew. I really hope nukes are fake, because ICBMs can still destroy D.C. without poisoning the land.
Nukes fake like everything else. Lots to worry about but nuclear war is not one of them.
Once upon a time in the east, the Buchinsky family headed west. To the PA lessbadlands. When it comes to getting out of the way of death wish, early’s better than just in time, way better than too late. Which direction now to that golden pond, young wo/man? Not downwind of Greeley, or Russia, would be easier on olfactory bulbs, & other parts.
***admin, no burning sights or smells my inbox again today. Know anything about that?
i am glad you had the nerve to name the real enemy,the internationals jews who own and run usa.they will stop at nothing to achive their goals including destroying usa.
A wider war is Washington’s goal
Title states his whole premise which is not just wrong but naive. His scope of perception is so narrow. He blames DC for everything wrong in the world when DC is just full of puppets dancing to the tune of the money power global satanic cabal. The people in the WH aren’t running anything except the country into the ground taking orders from the puppet masters. The Pentagon and the regime are being manipulated into war as is Russia. Ill copy and paste a comment I made from another article.
The end of the US dollar as the world’s global reserve currency is a key objective, not an unplanned consequence.
Good conclusion and true but not the primary objective of the globalist satanic cabal.
Are they offering an authentic alternative to the West’s global governance model?
As intended they believe so but it’s not a western ideology of global governance their unwittingly opposing.
Are they useful dupes, exploited by their Western counterparts?
Bingo! They are being used by the globalist in league with China using their model of global governance with the main objective to provoke a limited nuclear war destroying both Russia and US/NATO, the Dollar, Euro and Ruble leaving China (Dragon) as the unopposed military and economic power of the New World Order beast system. China gains control of all Russia’s natural resources to feed and fuel their war machine. Then they implement the digital currency and facilitate the anti-Christ rise to power.
That’s where I see this whole shit show going.
I agree with most of this, but i think russia survives and marches all the way to israel. The book of revelation hasn’t been my thing in a very long while, but things like gog, magog, kings of the east, the mark (vax), and general hell on earth kinda stick with a guy.
Youre guess is as good as mine but i think you laid it out pretty well.
Isn’t PCR the guy telling us all a month or two ago (on USA Watchdog) that there was NO WAY NATO was going to get involved in this? Yes he was. I had a semi-civil argument with Greg Hunter about that very topic.
Now he’s gone from being dead wrong to ” I knew this was going to happen all along.”
Let this be a lesson to everyone…a lifetime of service to Government will rot your brain so subtly that you won’t even feel it happening.
‘commission for the defense of state sovereignty’
Walt wishes his country had one of those, he gets a Minister for Diversity, Equality and Inclusion or some such instead.
