pugnacity at Pentecost 2025

NATO general secretary Mark Rutte expects member states to boost their budget contribution to the NATO war machine from 2% to 5% of their GDP to meet the potential threat from Russia or China 5 years from now. 

Monday 9th June 2025 was a national holiday in France. The occasion commemorates Pentecost. The coming of the promised Holy Spirit to lead us into all truth, and help us to obey the peace loving teaching of Jesus Christ.

But in Britain Pentecost was marked by a speech calling for sacrifice to the Wests new god – Material Man. Unlike the Christian God, this god is indeed the opiate of the gullible masses. Mark Rutte is peddling the lie that western liberties will henceforth depend on serious sacrifices.

Much more of our taxation must now go to building a bigger, better war machine to slay the Beast from the East. Blood of course will be offered up: our youth must be sacrificed on the altar of the new Religion: Rationalist Materialism.

The West of course is peace loving – we do not seek war. But we will not shirk our Duty. Duty to whom and for what, I ask ?

We must now make serious sacrifices to stave off a possible threat 5 years away … Rutte cites Statistics to prove that the forces of evil are spending more and more on weapons to destroy our way of life.  In 5 years time they could have superiority and they  might decide to attack us – look at Ukraine ! The signs are all there.

We are morally obliged to go to war to save Ukraine. That she is not a member of NATO or the EU is a mere technicality to be ignored. Yet the awesome technicality of Article 5 can be invoked: an attack on a member State serves as casus belli and justifies a military response …

In other words, we invoke strategic technicalities when it suits, not when it doesn’t. That is neither the spirit nor the practice of the Rule of Law and of a Rules based international order: but it is evidence of ideological and political manipulation of information.

Rutte asserts a dubious thesis and edits reality accordingly. Worse, he insults us by deploying the psychology of childrens stories. There is a big bad wolf and he is prowling around to get innocent little Red Riding Hood….

So what is the truth; what is the context ?

A local dispute between Russia and Ukraine is presented as a threat to world security. Ditto the local dispute between China and Taiwan which is none of our business. Taiwan is, however,  the business of Global Big Business, therefore serious American forces are deployed there, along with the threat of nuclear force against China …

Ukraine of course has been the target of western economic interests for some time. It has mineral and food resources which the West wants. So, rogue Russia must not get them. The Deal Trump recently blackmailed Zelensky into signing says it all. Zelensky has sold the resources of Ukraine to the Western Plutocracy. It is since then, that the lackies of the Western Plutocracy in European capitals and Brussels have become united in going onto an all-out war footing in order to enforce the Rights of Pax Americanas Big Business interests in Ukraine.

Russia has been marked as an enemy. Why ?  Because she opted out of vassalage to the West. She was considered a loyal vassal all the while she let western multinationals exploit her resources and her market. The West had no complaints during all those years they were buying cheap Russian oil and gas etc. Yes cheap. Germany grew rich on Russian resources sold cheaply to the West on the Wests terms.

So Why didn’t Russia attack the West then ? Why did Russia raise her worries at the Munich Security conference in 2007 – why didn’t the Woke West listen then ? Why did Russia wait 7 years before invading Ukraine in 2014 ? Why did the West continue to do business with Russia after the 2014 invasion of Ukraine ? Why didn’t the Woke West negotiate when Russia conducted military manoeuvres on the Ukrainian border in the 3 months before the 2022 invasion, simultaneously calling for an international treaty to guarantee the independance of Ukraine outside NATO and the EU ? Despite the patent precedent of the 2014 Russian invasion, the West refused negotiations. Why ?

The truth about the Western Plutocracy is manifest in Trumps claims on Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal. A conceited personality and mediocre negotiator, Trump simply said what the Western Plutocracy wants: control of the increasingly precious resources of this planet. The truth about western intentions and western tactics is revealed in the nature of the Trump-Zelensky Deal and those multi billion dollar trade agreements Trump made with Gulf states just recently.

Back in 1997, Soviet era American expert George F Kennan publicly questioned the continued existence of NATO in a world no longer threatened by Russia or China. That truth was evident in the chummy reception of Russia and China into the Global Big Business club during three decades after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

Yet NATO WAS SUSTAINED and the American war machine maintained despite the fact that such war spending was making the Federal US Debt worse and worse. The explanation is simple: Big Money supplies the Credit and so Big Money calls the shots: Big Global Money hiding behind the facade of world liberty. The entire arrangement makes the innocent American people liable for the debt created by Big Moneys global war machine…

If there is war with Russia or China in the next few years it will be because the Western Kleptocracy has turned two local crises into global issues and built up a military threat to Russian and Chinese interests. Currently, the West is besieging Russia from eastern Europe and containing China within an arc of American military bases and war ships.

This policy of military confrontation to impose Western vassalage on Russia and China has already driven resource rich Russia into the arms of Totalitarian China. This stupid, warmongering attitude must be called out and cancelled .. before it all gets entirely out of hand …

Their lust for power and control of resources blinds the western plutocrats into believing that Russias resources will be up for grabs if the West weakens Russia in Ukraine. They believe that Russia can be dismembered and separated from China. And they can do it all in the name of Western Liberty, the Rule of Law and a Rules based Intermational Order…

Accordingly, they are selling us the lie that this is 1939 again. It is not !  This is akin to the madness displayed in 1914 …
