| Direct Translation via Google Translate. Edited. [NewsFront] "Get it into your head: Putin is going to get even with us. We must be prepared for the inevitable" - this is how the article by former British Defense Secretary and failed NATO Secretary General Ben Wallace ends Petr Akopov, RIA What is “inevitable”? That “Putin will soon turn his war machine against Britain” – this is the headline of an article by a retired minister in The Telegraph. If you take only the headline and the last paragraph, you might think that we have before us a typical example of Russophobic propaganda and hysteria: the Russians will not stop in Ukraine, then they will attack the Baltics, Poland, Romania, and then they will go to Berlin. We hear all this from the mouths of the Atlanticists (including very high-ranking ones) and the Kyiv leaders – now Britain must also prepare for the Russian threat, it’s all clear. However, Ben Wallace's pathos is completely different - he is sure that Russia is going to take revenge on Britain not for the supply of missiles to Ukraine, but for the Crimean War: "The people at the head of Russia are rewriting history, correcting the humiliation experienced at the end of the Cold War, and settling scores from a century ago. Although Russia is a master at humiliating itself, we must understand that, according to Putin, the root of all its troubles is not even the United States, but Britain." "In Putin's warped worldview, it was we who started the Crimean War, which ended in defeat for the Tsars, it was we who orchestrated the rise of Hitler, it was we who supported the counter-revolution, and it was our espionage that brought down the Soviet Union. Putin has Britain in his sights." That's how it is. Does it turn out that Putin is like Danila Bagrov's brother with his "You bastards will answer to me for Sevastopol!", only he is addressing not the Westerners, but the British, and he is referring to Sevastopol in 1855? But only the sensitive ex-Minister of Defense hears this threat and is in a hurry to warn his compatriots, instilling in them the need to understand Putin's "true motivation". Otherwise, there will be trouble - for Britain. The captain of the Scots Guards (Wallace retired with this rank) has recalled the Crimean War more than once: the day before the start of a special military operation in Ukraine, he said that the Scots Guards "kicked Tsar Nicholas's ass and could do it again." The Crimean War is indeed the only example of direct British aggression against Russia, but our score against the foggy island is far from exhausted by it, as well as by what Wallace listed. There is also the murder of Paul I - to prevent his alliance with Napoleon against Britain. And the murder of Grigory Rasputin - to keep Russia from a mythical separate peace with Germany, which in reality opened the way to the catastrophe of February 1917. Or the combination played out by London to pit Germany and Russia against each other in the First World War. Our score of grievances is great - and our memory is good. But this is not just a score against Britain - past or present. This is a bill to the Anglo-Saxon elite and financial oligarchs, to those forces that made London the world's financial capital and the United Kingdom the first model and prototype of a global military, financial and commercial empire. For these forces, Russia has always been a mortal enemy and threat - not because we set our goal to destroy them (we did not even during the Soviet years), but because we occupy a key place in Eurasia - a territory without control over which it is impossible to build a global empire. The Russian Cossacks did not intend to go to India, but theoretically they could do so - and this was enough for the British to participate in the murder of our emperor. Russia did not threaten the British colonies, did not claim to expand its influence, but theoretically it could withdraw from the war with Germany, which England needed to curb German ambitions - and this was enough to support the conspiracy against the tsar in February 1917. Britain has always considered itself entitled to interfere in our internal affairs and has never disdained anything. Neither the incitement of mountain separatism during the Caucasian War of the 19th century, nor the support of Ukraine during the current conflict. The British elite - and its continuation in the form of the American - have always considered Russia more an object than a subject of relations. In the post-Soviet years, this confidence became absolute - and the Atlanticists have set their sights on the geopolitical separation of Ukraine from Russia, that is, the real dismemberment of Russian civilization. Does Putin understand this? Of course. Is he going to take revenge on Britain? No. Because now the center of decision-making is dispersed across the Western world, on both sides of the Atlantic, with an emphasis on the Western one. Russia is taking revenge on the entire Anglo-Saxon elite - first by repelling their attacks, holding out and restoring its unity. And then it will redouble its efforts to build a new world order, that is, dismantling the entire Anglo-Saxon globalist project, the destruction of which will bury not only Britain, but also the United States. So Captain Ben Wallace can warn his compatriots as much as he wants that Putin has them in his sights, but he still won’t be able to stop the Russian strike. Because it won’t come from the air or the sea, but from the accumulated energy of discontent with the Anglo-Saxons throughout the world. And our contribution to this retaliatory strike will be large, but certainly not exceeding what has been done against us in previous centuries. |

| #3 Anglo-Saxon leadership no longer represents the Anglo Saxon people and lacks legitimacy. We and our culture have been betrayed. Does Ben Wallace understand how some of us hope to see the Sovietized Western Liberal Democracies destroyed. The Russian beef is with western leadership, not the people - and if Russia un-alives a few of these horrible leaders, the West would be better for it. |
