• Obama Floors the Accelerator in Nuclear “Chicken Game” with Russia!

  Every veteran participant in high-level strategic decision-making (even Henry Kissinger in his fashion), knows that Lyndon LaRouche is right in insisting that Obama is playing nuclear “chicken” with Russia. (“Chicken” is a game in which two drivers race headlong towards each other on the between-the-lanes stripe of a highway,— and the first one to veer away from the collision, loses the game.) This is exactly what President John Kennedy pointedly refused to do, acting against the advice of most of his advisers, during the Cuban Missile Crisis of October, 1962.

  Former MI6 officer Alastair Crooke, for instance, wrote in the Nov. 14 “Weekly Comment” of his “Conflicts Forum” website,
  –
  “Veteran American foreign policy commentator, William Polk, who, in earlier times, was a member of the three-man Crisis Management Team, during President Kennedy’s Cuban Missile standoff with Khrushchov, warns us starkly that we are heading towards another such perilous (even apocalyptic) moment of ratcheting tensions — up to real war.“

  After outlining Polk’s argument, Crooke concludes,

  “What was so striking about Polk’s account of ‘lessons not learned’ is that a very senior former Russian official had just told us the very same thing (how we seem to be repeating the same dangerous pattern that led to the Cuban Missile Crisis).”

  On November 22, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov, the veteran of 42 years of diplomacy for the Soviet Union and then for Russia, told the Council on Foreign and Defense Policy in Moscow, that

  “they went all out in Ukraine and supported extremists, thereby giving up their own principles of democratic regime change. What came out of it was an attempt to play chicken with Russia, to see who blinks first. As bullies say, they wanted to Russia to ‘chicken out’ (I can’t find a better word for it), to force us to swallow the humiliation of Russians and native speakers of Russian in Ukraine.”

  Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel’s opposition, along with the Joint Chiefs, against Obama’s drive towards apocalypse, was one issue, perhaps the most important one, in Obama’s firing of Hagel Nov 24. Hagel had “said the U.S. needed to find a way to de-escalate tensions with Russia,” the Wall Street Journal reported the next day. And China’s Defense Ministry commended Hagel after his firing, for facilitating military-to-military exchanges which averted armed clashes between the two nations.

  Ukraine, the supposed pretext over which Obama is rushing towards war with Russia, is totally bankrupt, and will have to reach an agreement with Russia just to survive. Ukraine can’t do otherwise, but the British empire, working through their tool Barack Obama, won’t allow it. And as the whole country slides into collapse, the Nazis of Kiev have cut off the pensioners in the Southeast, along with services needed for life, even as the same services flicker off throughout Ukraine as a whole.

  “We’re looking at something catastrophic,” said Lyndon LaRouche.
