globalresearch | It is true that Ukraine – the biggest country and bread basket of
Europe – has now been pried wide open for transnational Western banks,
agribusiness, Big Oil and NATO to feed on. And it is true that all talk
of “land grab” has been projected onto Russia even as US Greystone and
Blackwater mercenaries – now called “Academi” in the Big Lie lexicon –
move on the ground in Ukraine as the US and NATO propagate ever more
threats of force and embargo against “Russia’s aggression”.
Reverse
blame is always the US geostrategic game. “Russia’s designs to take the
whole of Ukraine” is again US projection of its own objective, as in the
old days when “world rule plot” was attributed to the former USSR. Yet a
line has been drawn at Crimea, and drawn again in Eastern Ukraine, and
it is backed by a country that cannot be arm-twisted, propaganda
invaded, or air-bombed with impunity. That is why the one-way threats
never stop. It is the first line yet drawn by an historical power
outside of China against the exponentially multiplying US-led private
transnational money sequences devouring the world.
People now have a chance to reflect on who is the aggressor and who
stands for democratic choice as events unfold. They can observe the
patterns of Orwellian distortion day to day. Never is the other side
presented. The US and NATO alone continuously denounce, lie and
threaten. Financial contracts and assets are violated by one side alone.
Hate campaigns without evidence go one way. Uprisings have been mass
murderous from the US-coup side and without harm from the resisting
side. Russia is behind its own borders, and the US deploys threats,
covert operations and mercenaries from thousands of miles away. But this
time US-NATO-led corporate globalization cannot destroy nations at
will. Sometimes history can happen as it should.
The Mechanisms of Reverse Blame to Justify Destroying Societies
Reversal of blame is always the US method of pretext and
justification. This is why Russia is pervasively vilified in the mass
media, and Canada’s big-oil regime joins in along with the UK. As
always, denunciation rules without reasoned understanding. As always,
the US-led financial and military forces of private money-power
expansion move behind the abomination of designated enemies. Any nation
or leader not serving transnational corporate control of resources and
markets across borders is always the villain. This is the ruling meta
program.
Thus too in Ukraine. When Europe tried to broker a peace deal between
the opposition and elected government of Ukraine, the US Assistant
Secretary of State Victoria Nuland continued to court the neo-Nazi coup
leaders to overthrow the state, instructing “Yats” (appointed PM
Yatsenyuk) to consult with the main putsch leader Oleh Tyahnybok “at
least four times a week”. When she is reminded of the EU peace talks
and agreement to stop the bloodshed, her response is telling, “Fuck the
EU”. The coup peaked after three days of murder by the neo-Nazi faction.
When former “Orange revolutionary” and gas oligarch leader of the
Fatherland Party, Yulia Tymoshenko, then got out of jail for criminal
embezzlement of state property, she expressed the logic of power shared
with the US regarding Russia. She says without denial of the words:
“take up arms and go and wipe out these damn katsaps” [Russian minority]
– - – so that not even scorched earth would be left of Russia.” Yet in
every Western media of record, it is Russia who remains “the aggressor”,
“the growing threat”, “the source of the rising crisis”, and “the
out-of-control power that must be stopped”.
There are exact thought governors at work throughout. I have analysed
these structures of delusion in learned journals as ‘the ruling
group-mind’ (collectively regulating assumptions that are false but
taken for granted) and, sustaining it, the ‘argumentum ad adversarium’
(the diversion of all issues to a common adversary). The “escalating
crisis in Ukraine” expresses these fallacious operations in paradigm
form. So does the false claim of “Syrian use of chemical weapons” which
almost led to US bombing of Syria’s civilian infrastructures a few
months earlier. The mind mechanics at work form the inner logic of the
lies which never stop. The grossest operations go back to the Reagan
regime naming Nicaragua as “a clear and present danger to the United
States” to justify US war crimes against it which in turn fed the ever-
growing corporate-military complex and murderous covert operations.
Always the mind-stopping mendacity and criminal aggressions are
justified through the ruling group-mind and enemy-hate switch which form
the deep grammar of this thought system.
