UKRAINE: Mearsheimer and McGovern on Ukraine
This seems to be the perfect tie to bring this up.
On March 7/22 @ 23:16 K writes”Moral decency would demand that we had compromised with Russia to save American lives.”
At this juncture is seems clear that the problems we have in Ukraine grew out of the neocon agenda driven by the obsession by said group to destroy Russia.
For K and all others to get the true read on the neocon mind may not be that easy for some. Over the last four or five years I think I’ve come to understand them better. This is not a pretty picture in my humble opinion. But to understand the opposition you must first understand what makes them tick!
In 2016 Jane Mayer wrote DARK MONEY The HIDDEN HISTORY of the BILLIONAIRES BEHIND the RISE of the RADICAL RIGHT. 380 with 43 pages of notes. This book gets down and dirty exposing much of the extreme right’s actions throughout the last 70 plus years.
Although she communicates the Koch brother gave her a rough time, I don’t beleieve she has been sued so far.
I was amazed at learning a history I thirst for, something that because of it’s detail intrigued me and I dove in.
She does a brilliant job of explaining in detail a the sordid tale of how the super wealthy of the time bought influence in prestigious Universities to spread the teachings of Friedrich Austin von Hayek. Including the practice of paying new students to take associated courses.
When we examine the enormous sums of money in politics these days we have to recognize that this perversion of the process by which the two currently totally dysfunctional political parties Americans select their leadership has been a result of much of this story. A story, the history of which goes back to at least 1944 with the birth of the International Monetary Fund and lead to the Bretton Woods Conference in Dec 1945.
An interesting note is that Hayek , an Austrian native, lived in this country from 1950 to 1962.
This book is full of history carefully documented by the author through her notes. Which include the IRS discovering hidden funds used to finance your CIA desperate for “dark” funding.
She tracks this history very closely, tying up the loose ends an in the end making the obvious connections to present day politics, right wingers, neocons and I believe Zionist. My words not hers. On page 370 she starts the discussion of the election of Nov 4, 2014, you might wish to read that page at the book store.
