World Banks Dominate while pretend enemies "war"

He looks up in admiration at a portrait of Big Brother, Winston feels he has at least ended his "stubborn, self-willed exile" from the love of Big Brother

So do you believe the official narratives? That Russia is at some perpetual war with USA and that shifting alliances are real and that the wars are real?

Why do you think police get militarized and there is so much research into controlling peoples minds but so little curing common diseases?

Well of course those ppm of toxins that destroy your body are for your safety. Nevermind that these toxins could be removed to 0ppb in your food and water but are not.

It isn't even about profit. Why would it be? Who creates the money and prints the debt? Anyway. Here is some news about Oceania.

US military officials are loudly bragging about their latest initiative to reassure Europe, a program that was called, unlikely enough, the European Reeassurance Initiative (ERI), and which to this point has involved moving a lot of sand around, and building some roads in rural parts of several Baltic states.

ERI is nominally the latest in a long line of programs the Obama Administration has announced to “combat Russian aggression,” and which are meant to build up nations along the Russian frontier to support massive US military deployments to spite Russia.

The plans are often ill-conceived, as the US idea to deploy huge amounts of tanks into several of these countries ran into problems because the tanks are stored in swampy areas where the mud makes it virtually impossible to drive a tank, and NATO has taken to having to “ship” those tanks back and forth to their various anti-Russia photo ops.

In this regard, ERI is trying to be the solution for the military-created problem, hauling thousands of tonnes of sand into those swampy areas to build “tank trails” that they can drive the tanks through, along with roads to support the infrastructure for the NATO operations in the area.

The army sees it as a win-win, as the pricey construction involves the use of contractors, and is subsequently popular with the host countries, and also lets the army deploy people to not-war-zones, which is “good for morale.”

That the whole program is make-work to “reassure” European nations about the US commitment to take part in some unlikely, disastrous future war with Russia is just gravy for them, as the Pentagon sees talk of a new Cold War as a great excuse to push for bigger budgets, and if they can’t physically position forces in the Baltic swamps for this scheme, they’ll build up the swamps so they can.

The Marine Corps' mission in Eastern Europe is rapidly evolving in the face of Russian saber-rattling, according to the outgoing commander of the Romania-based Black Sea Rotational Force.

The unit's latest deployment was the busiest ever and saw a shift in training of European allies away from counterinsurgency operations. Instead, they're practicing conventional combat, amphibious raid operations, and will stand up a new company-sized unit in October complete with tanks and artillery, said Lt. Col. David Fallon, BSRF's commanding officer

It puts Marines in Russia's backyard and is just one way the U.S. is working to reassure allies, he said. That is critical given recent developments in the region.

"Our future chairman [of the joint chiefs of staff] and commandant is saying the biggest security threat as a nation is Russia," Fallon said. "I think you can predict with near certainty we will have a continued presence there as long as that remains so. Just in talking with our Eastern European allies and partners, it is very reassuring to them that our highest decision makers are clearly focused on this part of the world."

Fallon echoed recent comments by Brig Gen. Norm Cooling, the deputy commander of Marine Corps Forces Europe and Africa, who cited the first ever deployment of MV-22 Ospreys to Romania in late May to participate in Exercise Platinum Eagle, as evidence of an increased commitment to a region spooked by Russian saber-rattling and intervention in places like Ukraine.

That renewed Cold War-style emphasis, and the Marines saw Black Sea Rotational Force pick up several training missions across Eastern Europe. Over the past six months, they completed nine major exercises and 46 military-to-military engagements. That is compared to just six exercises and 22 military-to-military engagements, during the previous rotation.

The next rotation of Marines will be even busier. They already have seven scheduled exercises, and 45 military-to-military engagements, with the possibility of more to come.

Here's how the Black Sea Rotational Force mission is evolving to meet the new rising threat in Eastern Europe.

The new iteration of Black Sea Rotational Force, which arrived in Eastern Europe in July, includes about 150 Marines that will be based in Bulgaria. The Combined Arms Company, which like the rest of BSRF, is manned by Marines on a six-month rotational basis, will include members of 2nd Tank Battalion; 2nd Light Armored Reconnaissance Battalion; 2nd Combat Engineer Battalion; Combat Logistics Battalion 6; and 1st Battalion, 10th Marines.

The unit is also equipped with four Abrams main battle tanks, six light armored vehicles and three howitzers.

That is among the most notable changes to BSRF, Fallon said, because it introduced a whole new spectrum of operations to their military-to-military training. Having tanks, armor and artillery at the Marines' disposal means they'll not only serve as a deterrent, but allows those in armor and artillery specialties to swap best practices with allies' troops in the region.

"This is a very significant step in the BSRF evolution when you talk about regional instability," he said. "And it certainly sends a clear message to our partners that we are all-in."

With Bulgaria bordering the Black Sea, a body of water also bordered by Russia, the Marines will be just a few hundred miles from the embattled Crimean peninsula.

Equally significant is a shift in the type of training Marines are engaging in with European allies as highlighted by a shift in the long-standing cooperation with Georgian forces. Marines trained Georgians in counter insurgency operations for the better part of a decade as they routinely deployed to Afghanistan in support of U.S. efforts there.

This year, however, during a two-week multinational exercise called Agile Spirit, Marines focused on large-scale, conventional, defensive and offensive operations that included not just Georgian troops, but also Romanian, Bulgarian, Latvian and Lithuanian soldiers.

"We were getting them to transition more toward a conventional force where they can provide for their own sovereignty and security," Fallon said.

The Marines with Black Sea Rotational Force can learn a lot from those engagements as well, he said, because the militaries in the region are highly skilled.

"The level of training and professionalism these European Union nations possess is not rudimentary," he said. "...We are working to know their [tactics, techniques and procedures] and they need to know ours if we ever have to operate side by side."

The latest iteration of BSRF also differed in its emphasis on shipboard operations, with Marines training aboard allies' vessels. Against the backdrop of shortage of amphibious assault ships, Marine leaders have said Marines could train and operate aboard NATO ships.

BSRF seized the opportunity to develop that concept, Fallon said. During Exercise Baltic Operations 2015, a training event held in June, Marines partnered with the British, Swedish, Polish, Latvian, Danish and Finnish troops to conduct ship-to-shore assaults off of allied vessels.

Marine were based on the British amphibious assault ship Ocean, from which they conducted a number of amphibious operations.

There was nothing in particular that was easier or more challenging in operating off a British ship, Fallon said, but the experience did provide the service with insight into its foreign ship basing initiative.

"It certainly is a topic of conversation in the Marine Corps right now," he said. "This was an opportunity, I think, for us as a service to field test some of those concepts, identify some of those challenges and begin working some of those solutions."

This fall, Europe-based Marines will further pursue the concept by testing MV-22 Osprey flights from Italian, Dutch, British, Spanish and French ships. Putting Marines aboard allies' ships could help the service respond more quickly to to crises in Europe and Africa.

In this post-nuclear world we are living in, the chances of a conventional conflict between the US and Russia are null. Proxy wars, taking place in countries with little international relevance and governed by men who cannot impose their will against that of giants, are a more likely choice. To arm, train and supply our allies brings nearly as much profit to the contractors, with none of the inconveniences (such as casualties, or taking responsibility for war crimes).

War is, and always will be, one of the most significant actions that those who control a society can take. The fact that a country can send another to fight its wars for them shows the skill of their politicians, and the complexity (if not hopelessness) of the global political system.

War vs Peace is a major mode of the pairs of opposites, more broken down to movement vs stillness.

Its manipulation by the "magicians" is a major form of control over reality, and benefits both parties. Especially when you know neither can be knocked out of the game aka nuclear deterrents.

Brilliant thread, OP.

I'm curious about these last 2 images though.

Could you explain them?

Also, what solutions do you suggest for this problem?

European control has always been one of America's biggest concerns. As it stands, the West is unbalanced; half the states are grouped together into the USA, giving them a collective bargaining power far greater than that of divided Europe. This is most evident when it comes to sanctions, most recently against Iran and Russia; America pushes for the measures, leaving Europe to pay the price.

Especially with the EU pushing for "ever greater unity," America is being careful to maintain the beneficial status quo. After all, if Europe was to start acting more in self-interest, it would warm relations with Russia and be less likely to back US adventurism in the Middle East.

Has anyone here ever read the "Report from Iron Mountain"?

As far as I know it's a hoax and fictional, but it is presented as leaked fact. Essentially though the book says the opposite of this thread's title: the great powers are living in a post-war era, and the report is supposedly written by a select panel on how to maintain control of a population WITHOUT warfare. I never read the whole thing because it's pretty kooky, but it at least got me thinking since it's generally the opposite of the commonly accepted "war to control" paradigm. It's pretty easy to find out there.

That's an interesting read. They don't say they're living in a post-war era (although it may well be), but they're looking at the possibility of permanent peace.

As far as I can tell they reach the conclusion that society is based on war, that the threat of war provides the society with a base level of impetus and that the military performs vital social functions that would need to be replaced in a world without war, or before such a world could come into being.

It's quite funny, it calls the army a welfare institution for men unsuitable for a legitimate job in commerce or production and points out the historical use of the military in press ganging or drafting when unemployment is very high. I guess the world is making headway to a world without war if societies no longer need to draft their young men in times of high unemployment.

Report from Iron Mountain is real. It is a government doc. They retroactively tried to discredit it. Denying origin of document is called counter intelligence (spreading disinformation).

The lower classes are not supposed to know what their betters think of them (that they are human cattle). The ruling elite all read Platos Republic in grade school.

You do not understand how the system works and how ancient it is.

It's very important to keep men occupied somehow, it's about appropriating the war instinct, this is what video-games tend to do.
