Warmongers are Destined For Hell

 


A member of the Keating 5 ('memba 'dem???), constantly pushing his finger in the chests of other countries, "Republican" who attacked Ron Paul in debates over Paul's position that America should "mind its own beeswax", a lover of big government and all of the fraud and bullshit that goes with big government - I give to you deceased Great American, John McCain.

My guess is that he was likely in cahoots with Biden and his son where Ukrainian grift was concerned...

Let's "dig up" some of McCain's old positions on Russia, shall we?

January 8, 2015 - Fresh off a weekend visit to Ukraine, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) said Sunday that Russia is, more or less, a giant gas station pretending to be a real country. Appearing on CNN's State of the Union, McCain hyped up the need for strict economic sanctions against Moscow in tandem with a flood of aid to the Ukrainian government, saying the U.S. needed a "fundamental re-assessment of our relationship with Vladimir Putin."

"Look, Russia is a gas station masquerading as a country," McCain said. "It's kleptocracy. It's corruption. It's a nation that's really only dependent upon oil and gas for their economy, and so economic sanctions are important."

My comment - Hey America, are you enjoying the $4 per gallon McCain Magical Mystery Tour prices at the pump?  Russia recently told the Germans that they will need to start paying for Russian gas in Rubles as Germany, a NATO ally, has become increasingly hostile toward Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.  The German government's response was to tell its citizenry to lower their furnace thermostat and wear thicker sweaters - I shit you not.

For McCain to call the Russian government "a kleptocracy and corruption" is akin to the pot calling the kettle black.

From The Daily Reckoning:

"Lord Arthur Ponsonby was a British diplomat and politician, dates 1871–1946. This cagey fellow identified 10 rules of propaganda. They are these:

1. We don’t want war, we are only defending ourselves.

2. The other guy is solely responsible for this war.

3. Our adversary’s leader is evil and looks evil.

4. We are defending a noble purpose, not special interest.

5. The enemy is purposefully causing atrocities; we only commit mistakes.

6. The enemy is using unlawful weapons.

7. We have very little losses, the enemy is losing big.

8. Intellectuals and artists support our cause.

9. Our cause is sacred.

10. Those who doubt our propaganda are traitors."

Sound familiar?
