AID TO UKRAINE PASSES—A MIXED BLESSING
This week the House finally passed another aid bill for Ukraine, using Democrat votes to bring it to a vote — a violation of the Hastert Rule. The portion of this aid that will actually make it to Ukraine in the form of real military aid will be a blessing to the Ukraine military in their desperate struggle against Russian aggression, but Americans didn’t get any action on the border invasion in return. As my subscribers know, I’m firmly in favor of aiding Ukraine militarily because we can’t let Russia get away with this invasion, knowing full well that the Communists are still in charge in Russia, having faked the demise of Communism. But I don’t support sending cash financial aid to Ukraine, because of rampant corruption there, leftover from when the Communists secretly retained positions of power during and after the phony fall of the Soviet Union. Since Russia is one of two existential enemies who does still intend to strike the West with nuclear weapons (when China is ready to join in) it is a blessing to help Ukraine continue to wear out Putin’s conventional forces in the very real effort to save their country from having to live again under the “continuing Soviets.” But the downside is that our own border is left unprotected from the invasion that is destroying our civil demographics by the millions of illegals entering unimpeded who will eventually add to the destructive civil unrest we will all experience when war finally does descend upon us.

Did you Know?
The Russians are building tremendous new nuclear/biological and chemical weapons systems--all with the assistance of US technology transfers. They are deploying on average, 3 new Topol-M 6th generation ballistic missiles per month. We built our last MX over 10 years ago, and are disarming unilaterally. Further, the Russian are building huge underground nuclear bunkers and weapons production facilities in the Ural Mountains, clearly intended to function during a nuclear war. The US intelligence community (under both Republican and Democratic administrations) knows this and are actively covering for the Russians, so the American people won't become alarmed.
Both Republican and Democratic administrations have been supplying the Chinese with high technology weapons systems for years, knowing that they, in turn, are supplying other enemies (Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, North Korea) as well. Both Russia and China continue to protest against any US anti-ballistic missile system, even though such systems are purely defensive. It doesn't take a genius to understand that ABM systems only threaten someone who intends to launch ballistic missiles someday.
President Clinton directed our military to absorb a nuclear first strike rather than launch on warning (our only true deterrent to a first strike) and to prepare to retaliate afterward. That first strike will take down all command and control, all bombers (since none are on alert), most missiles, and all satellite and submarine communications.
According to the House Armed Services Committee, the following reductions have taken place during the Clinton Administration: Strategic and General Purpose Forces from 1990 to 1997: B-52 Bombers have gone from 220 to 56. B-1 Bombers from 90 to 60; Strategic Defense Interceptor Aircraft from 36 to 0; and Army Divisions (1990 to 1997) have gone from 18 Active down to 10. Reserve divisions have gone from 10 to 8. Army Brigades (1990 to 1997) have declined from 8 Active to 3 and Reserve brigades have gone down from 27 to 18.
Joel Skousen's World Affairs Brief attempts to track the insider moves underlying the major stories you hear each week. The WAB is not a primary news source--but rather, the best source of news analysis. Joel's purpose and strong point is to help you see how world and national events are shaping up in accordance with the secret agendas of men and groups who control government. The World Affairs Brief puts together the probable set of intentions and motives of the power elite by inductively cataloging their specific actions over time.
What will you do about it?
What is the risk to you and your family if there is a major terrorist attack on a U.S. city with chemical or biological weapons? What will you do?
Did you know the US, by policy, will not retaliate on warning of a nuclear attack --effectively removing any deterrent? Are you prepared if the "unthinkable" happens --nuclear war?
Have you considered what you will do if an economic crisis threatens your pensions, investments and other so-called "guaranteed" income?
What about a major earthquake or other natural disaster suddenly upsetting the natural social order for months at a time? Could you get out of harm's way if massive social unrest erupts in the wake of a crisis?
What about your home? Do you have extra tanks of potable water should public water supplies be cut off or contaminated? Would you know how to collect and filter your own water if none was available for a long time?
