This then gave the permissions for the assault to begin in the Middle East against Afghanistan and Iraq. Then coming up towards the scheduled pull out of these two countries we observed the transition to colour revolutions in the same style as explained in this article regarding the Ukraine. The great stumbling block to a clear run here is Syria which of course has the support of Russia. They have proved to be a hard nut to crack. I believe that the conflict with ISIS will be the vehicle to finally attempt to finish off Syria. Of course the parallel encroachment towards Russia in the same style that they observed happening in the middle East are bound to make them nervous. It would therefore be fair to say that the Russian pre-preemptive move to reclaim the Crimea was one of strategic importance to them.<br \/>\nI had pointed out some years ago that Russia had been steadily building it&#8217;s conventional forces (as is China), primarily for defense purposes and I felt that this was a move away from nuclear knowing that if there was a nuclear exchange there would be no winners only tragic survivors. It does seem odd that we have been steadily depleting our own armed forces while at the same time playing second fiddle to America. This has been a consistent policy in both the New Labour administration and the present one.<br \/>\nThe EU has to be very cautious about being led by its nose into a war with Russia and if it does break out then it would be reasonable to expect every country to be a recipient of retaliation. It would likely be in their own back yard.<br \/>\nI had always been instinctively anti Communist and it was only in 1986 that I learned that my maternal ancestors in Lithuania had to go to the woods to burn their identity papers and had later to stay ahead of the Russian advance during the second world war. Now my instinct is different an never in a million years did I ever expect it to be so.<br \/>\nAmerica had the firepower to bomb Iraq into the stone age with no concern about the tragic loss of life as well as historical heritage. There were no real plans for the aftermath and it remains a total mess still. We can take a lesson from this attitude and expect no qualms about it happening in our own back yard.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/tapnewswire.com\/2015\/02\/ukrainians-seek-shelter-in-russia-from-recruiters-in-kiev\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ukrainians seek shelter in Russia from recruiters in Kiev<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is my opinion that we are observing the unfolding of an agenda that began with the false flag attack on 911.
