I also briefly touched on the pernicious propaganda spread by the EU that scares countries with fatalistic economic doom unless they submit to EU membership.
It is the EU that is the focus of this essay.
The EU has its roots as a union of French, German, and Italian steel manufacturers. The Union sought to harmonize economic relations between countries in post-war Europe.
This relationship was the brainchild of the EU, and European apparatchiks who spent time in US educational institutions.
The US pushed for an economic agreement between western European powers in order to blunt the appeal of socialism, distance rest of Europe from the Soviet Union, and keep US control over Europe.
From that time the EU grew to include more members, influenced more trade, and eventually became the bureaucratic monolith with its own supra-national government and currency that it is today.
The de-facto leader of the EU today is Germany. It has the most influence over EU policy, which it quite often breaks for its own benefit, and to the detriment of other members (like Greece).
When this German influence and control over the EU is more closely examined, some sinister parallels start coming into focus that hearken back to that nation’s unpleasant past.
Before the US decided that subordinating Europe to its interests through economic enticement would be a good idea, none other than Adolf Hitler embarked on his own ‘United Europe’ project, although by different means.
But even though the means may’ve been different, the aim was, and still appears to be German domination of Europe (albeit overseen by the US/NATO). But this time, it is an army of German businessmen that have been let loose in Eastern Europe buying up everything rather than the Wehrmacht shooting and bombing their way into peoples’ hearts.
The US basically took Hitler's plan and adapted it for its own purposes after the war.
One of the chief aims of German militarism and expansion for the last few centuries has been the subordination of Russia.
Let’s not forget that the Russian empress Catherine the Great was German. After she took control of Russia, she installed German advisers and invited German experts and migrants to settle in Russia.
But Germany’s appetite for controlling the East goes back much farther back in time. The Frankish Empire under Charlemagne controlled parts of Eastern Europe. The Franks were a Germanic people, and they always considered Eastern Europe as their ‘promised land.’
In later centuries, this German desire to rule the Eastern lands became a rallying cry of ‘Drang nach Osten,’ or ‘The drive to the East.’
Germany always desired to control the East. They see it as their destiny, and their defeat during WW2 may have tempered this drive, but the desire is still there.
This puts the 2014 color revolution in Ukraine led by the US and EU in a different perspective. This, as well as the recent intrigues against Russia, from accusing Putin of being a ‘tyrant’ to sanctioning Russia is a part of this renewed German attempt to subjugate the East.
Germany has already succeeded in regaining its influence in the old domains of Poland and the Baltic states by dragging them into the EU. In Poland for example, most of the banks and media are under German control. All this has been done without Germany firing a single shot!
Now, Germany is party to the NATO confrontation with Russia. Germany desires the raw materials of Russia so it can connect them to its own industries which will process them into products. The roadblock to this project remain Russian president Vladimir Putin, who insists on cooperation with the US and EU on an equal basis.
This is a big non-no for the US and the EU. Because whoever the US cannot control is seen as an enemy.
Putin wants to sell Germany and others these resources, but not for cheap.
So NATO has been mobilized to ‘send a message’ to Putin, that either he gives in or else. The on-going NATO force expansion deeper into Eastern Europe up to Russia’s borders, and the military exercises are meant to put pressure on Russia and scare it into submission so that US and Germany can realize their ‘Drive to the East.’
Just like fascist Germany and its satellites during WW2, Germany, the rest of NATO and US seem to be once again ganging up on Russia. The parallels are startling, and Russia has cause for worry. It sees history repeating itself.
Once can just take a look at the map of the current EU member countries and the map of German conquests and control during WW2 to see the similarities, with the drive to the east still in action.
This is why it is imperative for Russia, China and all others who’ve been burnt by this lunacy in the past to band together and setup alternate financial institutions and economic organizations to replace and counter those of the west. They must also work closely together in the defense sphere and develop military capabilities that will put them on-par with the west, if not ahead.
They must setup military cooperation with other countries, and establish military bases in the western hemisphere to put the US on notice. Russia and China must start to reciprocate US moves.
But fortunately, Russia and China have proven to be hard nuts to crack. The US has tried fake protests IN China and sanctions against Russia, but to no avail. US gambit of using Ukraine to serve as a club to beat Russia over the head has backfired, and Russia has taken control of the coveted Crimean Peninsula, and is supporting Russian separatists in Eastern Ukraine who don’t recognize the Kiev regime which came to power by force.
Both Russia and China have also limited and neutralized the work of western NGOs who have been shown to meddle in and interfere in both countries internal affairs, manipulating the public, and under the guise of democracy promotion funded, advised and supported pro-US candidates.
The ultimate aim of joint US-EU imperialism is the subjugation of the Eurasian continent. Gaining control over Russia will clear the way to China. This is the plan. Ignore the western concern about democracy, free elections, and human rights. That’s just PR bullshit.
Old German expansionism has today been repackaged as the 'European Union.' The US, NATO, and the EU are Hitler’s Heirs.
