Folks who think the Russia-Ukraine conflict began on February 24, 2022 may be surprised to learn it's been brewing since 2008. Former NATO Chief Anders Fogh Rasmussen admits in video below "We decided back in 2008, Ukraine WILL become a member of NATO." That decision caused today's troubles.
In the video below, released by "Alliance of Democracies" which was founded by the former NATO Chief, Rasmussen speaks about the present Russia-Ukraine conflict and how NATO is trying to find a way to admit Ukraine even though it is presently at conflict with Russia!
Rasmussen points to the possibility that the US and NATO might give certain "Security Guarantees" to Ukraine BEFORE it is admitted to NATO. The Interviewer asks Rasmussen if such Security Guarantees might be worded similar to those between the US and Israel, and Rasmussen makes a STUNNING admission:
We don't have to use that wording we can use the wording from 2008. "We decided in 2008 Ukraine WILL be admitted to NATO."
At approximately 1m 57s into the video below, he makes that statement. Watch for yourself:
This is a stunning fact. This was not previously publicized, anywhere.
What this means is that the present troubles between Russia-Ukraine/NATO/US all began with that decision back in the year 2008.
From that decision, the US/NATO and the collective West, did what they thought necessary to lay the foundations TO DO EXACTLY WHAT THEY PROMISED RUSSIA THEY WOULD NOT DO.
Back in 1991, then US Secretary of State, James Baker, met with then-Soviet General Secretary Mikhail Gorbachev and his then Soviet Foreign Minister, Eduard Shevrednadze in the Kremlin. It is noted in official US and UK documents that Baker, on orders from then US President George H.W. Bush, told Gobachev and Shevrednadze that if the then Soviet Union agreed to the re-unification of East and West Germany, "NATO will not move beyond the Elbe (River)" in East Germany.
Here is a snippet of the UK document, from the UK National Archive, outlining the facts:
So NATO knew in 2008, that back in 1991, the US, UK, France, and Germany promised the then Soviet Union that NATO would **NOT** be expanded east of Germany and now we see above, straight from the horses mouth, that the very Chief of NATO back in 2008 agreed to admit Ukraine. He knew they were not supposed to do that, but they did it anyway.
The US, UK, France and Germany explicitly promised not to do that, and NATO went ahead and did it anyway starting in 2008.
That leads us to who was in charge back in 2008. In the US, George W. Bush (the son) was President.
Michael Hayden, a retired United States Air Force four-star general and former Director of the National Security Agency, Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence, was Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.
Robert Gates, an American intelligence analyst and university president served as the twenty-second United States Secretary of Defense from 2006 to 2011.
Those are the men who needed to green-light such a move by NATO and, clearly, from Rasumussen's admission in the video above, they must have actually done so.
Here we are, 15 or so years later, we are all on the verge of Nuclear World War 3 because of the decisions these men took in 2008.
Now, on several of my radio shows, I have wondered aloud if the people in our government are psychopaths based on the things they are doing which ARE leading us all into another World War?
The video above gives all of us a look into whether or not they actually ARE psychopaths.
When the Interviewer in the video above, asks Rasmussen "What will the Russians think about that (Giving security guarantees to Ukraine before it is admitted to NATO) Rasmussen replies "I don't care."
. . . and there . . . . right there . . . you now see the answer to whether or not these people are psychopaths.
We are facing nuclear World War 3 because of what men like Rasmussen did - and are still doing - and his response to the Interviewer is simply "I don't care."
With people like this, doing what's being done, you and I seem to have no hope at all of avoiding nuclear world war 3.
Prepare as best you can with Emergency Food, Water, Medicine, a generator for electric, fuel for that generator, communications gear (CB/HAM Radio) and get right with God.
