Andrew Anglin – The Unz Review June 17, 2023
I know I’ve said it six million times, but the Ukraine war on the ground is virtually irrelevant in comparison to the effects of the Ukraine war on geopolitics.
It would have mattered if Russia could have lost, but they can’t lose. The critics are now saying they are winning too slowly, but even if that weird claim were true, it is irrelevant.
Last week, a very big development happened: China sent armored trucks to Chechnya.
A video of Chinese-built armored vehicles posted this week by the leader of Chechnya, a backer of Russia's war in Ukraine, is raising new questions of whether equipment from China could be used to support Moscow’s campaign.@jamestareddy @austinramzyhttps://t.co/QnFvo7qlRn

I had asserted from the beginning that China would not let Russia lose the war, because China cannot afford to have Russia fall to the West.
Several well-known right-wing commentators were saying that China would never commit material to Russia’s war effort, even whilst they’ve already committed in full to propping up Russia’s economy. They were wrong and I was right (as usual).
I don’t even bother to follow the day-to-day of the war. It’s too autistic. And it does not matter.
What matters is that because the US started this psycho war on purpose, then used it as an excuse to try to collapse the government of Russia through sanctions, the whole world is in the process of cutting ties to the Americans.
It was pure hubris that led the US to think they could use the Ukraine as a battering ram to bring down the Russian state. This will be the downfall of the Anal Empire.
All the things that I said would happen are happening.
It would be too much to say that the Russians planned it this way. Clearly, they did not. We can see from the initial invasion that Putin and Lavrov assumed that the US would negotiate. Anyone who suggests that the Russians are so stupid they believed they could conquer a nation of 40 million people with 150,000 soldiers is just lying to you. The initial invasion was obviously a negotiation tactic.
What they ended up with – the whole world on their side, and a lead role in the new world order – is more than they could have ever hoped for.
It was a perfect storm. Everyone was sick of the US for an entire list of reasons, the most recent being that the US is in the process of forcing the whole world to participate not only in gay sex but in child gay sex.
The International Saint Petersburg Economic Forum, which is happening now, has representatives from more than 100 countries in attendance.
RT:
By the time the conflict in Ukraine is resolved, Kiev will have accepted the loss of its former territories, and Western-led globalization will be dead, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told RT Arabic on Friday.
Speaking on the sidelines of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum, Lavrov described the West’s proxy war with Russia as “a geopolitical conflict,” in which the US was attempting to eliminate a powerful competitor and “preserve its hegemonic position by all means.”
“The attempt is futile, and we all know this,” Lavrov stated, adding that Ukraine and its backers will be forced to accept new “concrete realities” before a ceasefire is reached.
It’s a new day.
The sun is finally peaking through the brutal and satanic darkness of the Anal Order.
Firstly, Kiev must accept that any potential peace agreement will need to take into account the loss of the Donetsk, Lugansk, Kherson, and Zaporozhye Regions, which voted to join the Russian Federation last year. Before sending its military into Ukraine, Moscow offered more generous terms, and Lavrov warned on Friday that “the longer they put off talks, the more difficult it will be for them to reach an agreement with us.”
Ukraine and its European backers have admitted that the 2014 and 2015 Minsk agreements – under which Kiev promised to grant limited autonomy to Donetsk and Lugansk – were a ruse to buy Ukraine time to prepare for war with Russia.
That really was the stupidest imaginable thing – the entire Western establishment just outright said that they signed fake peace agreements so they can prepare for war.
They said it is okay to do that because Russia is so immoral.
This is in itself an admission that the West wanted the war, and bullied Russia into it. Otherwise, they could have just signed the deal legitimately, instead of with their fingers crossed behind their back.
Somehow, even after that public admission was made, the West continues to claim that the Russian invasion is a “war of aggression.”
Would you do business with someone like this?
This situation will never be repeated, Lavrov told RT.
“We won’t be prepared to let security guarantees be based on more pledges and promises or even documents the West may offer us,” he said. “We must guarantee our national security on our own.”
“We fully understand that we can only rely on ourselves and build relations only with countries open to an equal and mutually beneficial partnership,” Lavrov continued. “This is not what we see in the West these days.”
Lastly, Lavrov declared the era in which the US and its allies control the institutions of globalization – primarily development banks and multilateral organizations – will come to a close.
…
“Today, there is an understanding that growth processes need to be regionalized and this vision prevails,” Lavrov said. “All the countries of this vast continent should use their God- and nature-given advantages to develop mutually beneficial logistic, financial, and transport chains.”
The foreign minister added that Russia would “leave all doors open” for partnership with European countries who realize that their interests are better served by cooperation with Russia rather than by playing Washington’s “ideological and geopolitical games.”
“The world will be different,” Russia’s top diplomat concluded. “And the processes we see unfolding today were whipped up by the West’s response to Russia’s Special Military Operation, when we accepted the challenge that they flung at us. These processes clearly show that autonomy and independence of any structures on the global arena that are related to the West are becoming the main trend today.”
It was truly a challenge flung.
Again, because this cannot be said enough: when the Westerners admitted that they had no intention to honor their agreement to stop the war against Russians in Donetsk, they admitted that the entire situation, starting in 2014 with the overthrow of the elected government of the Ukraine by paid neo-Nazi terrorists, was a setup, designed to create a war.
Merkel, Hollande, and Zelensky himself all stated outright that they signed this peace agreement with a conscious plan to break it. Zelensky, a Jewish comedian, ran and was elected on a platform of enforcing the agreement. Then, after being elected, he started really agitating the situation, pushing the neo-Nazis to really start bombing the Donbass.

No one in the US has disagreed with any of these statements.
As recently as February 9, 2022 – days before the Russian invasion began – The Guardian was talking about the possibility of honoring the accords. (Note: I wrote about the goyish innocence of The Guardian yesterday.)

This entire conspiracy to force Russia into a war and then try to collapse their economy is all very straightforward and public. It was planned by Jewish Kaganist Victoria Nuland, who is literally married to Robert Kagan, who planned the Iraq War II.
He wrote this in 1998:

Robert Kagan is the son of Yale professor Donald Kagan, who is a Russian Jew and one of the founders of neoconservatism. Kagan the younger started the “Project for a New American Century” with William Kristol, who is the son of Irving Kristol, another Russian Jew, known as “The Godfather of Neoconservatism.”
The Jew Nuland was ambassador to NATO under George W. Bush, then entered the State Department under Obama, where she planned this entire plot against Russia.
This is all known. Everything that is happening is a Jew conspiracy against Russia, which is partnered with and backed up by various things:
- The arms industry
- BlackRock
- The gay agenda
- White women obsessed with Donald Trump
- Technocratic globalist transhumanists (i.e., Klaus Schwab and the WEF)
The Jewnited Snakes can deny all of this in their media all they want. They can keep their own population of fat, gay retards in a constant state of agitation and belligerence.
However, everyone else in the world sees what has happened.
They see that the US is completely out of control, setting up all of these wars, attempting to totally dominate the globe and implement some kind of AI-based pederastic space empire.
Everybody knows.
Why do you think you’re always hearing so much about China now?

We are entering a new age.The new age will be peaceful, heterosexual, and defined by the Chinese system of cooperation through global commerce, rather than the Jewish-American system of global domination through war and the manipulation of financial markets.
Some people on the right-wing attack me for being a Chinese shill.
That is fine.
In my view, anyone supporting Jews maintaining power is stupid and dangerous. If you are opposed to the Chinese taking power from the Jews, you support the Jews maintaining power, and you support everything the Jews do with their power, including child trannies and the JJ Abrams Star Wars trilogy.
I think there is a resurgence of anti-Anglinism because at this point in time, right-wingers have not yet learned about Sino-Friendship. And I think I am going to be part of the throes of that transformation, which must take place. The right-wing is not going to be the lunatic Jewish shitshow that it once was in the last century. Sino-Friendship is going to be at the center of that. It’s a huge transformation for right-wingers to make. They are now going into a Sino mode and Anglin will be resented because of his leading role. But without that leading role and without that transformation, the right-wing will not survive.

Well, I’ve been saying that the Nazi West knew globalism had peaked for Nazi powers in the 1970s, and since then, there’s been zero real terms rises in living standards, when you strip out the debt, & inflation.
Since the late 90s, the Nazi West has been dismantling globalisation systems, then we had 2006/8 designed financial collapse, currency wars, illegal sanctions, and trade wars. Brexit is a trade war against the EU.
Given that all this soft power failed, they tried other stunts, like Syria, Arab Spring, and various color revolutions, such as UKraine. And here we are.
“I don’t even bother to follow the day-to-day of the war. It’s too autistic. And it does not matter.” agreed, I’ve not been following the details for months, it is pointless, unless NATO officially engages, or Putin is replaced with a man of violence.
The really big stories which no one seems to be interested in, is the collapsing US and UK economies. We even have the fake news attacking the Bank of England, but no one talks about designed inflation as a way to cope with the debt.
No one is interested in the fact that our decrepid NHS is secretly treating thousands, if not tens of thousands of UKrainian Nazis, and NATO Nazis in secret wards. The NHS FOI requested stated that they didn’t know about these secret wards. The Home Office is now months beyond the time limit for response on my FOI request.
As I say, only two things can make UKraine relevant. NATO goes in, or Putin gets replaced.
As to China, they need Russian resources, and they don’t mind paying for them, & China knows they are next if Russia were to lose, or be couped. Not that Russia is going to lose. It appears Russia wants the UKraine defeat to be slow, so it’s a US election problem.
“We won’t be prepared to let security guarantees be based on more pledges and promises or even documents the West may offer us,” he said. “We must guarantee our national security on our own.”
Which can only mean that Russia will overrun all of Ukraine. There is no other way to achieve their security.
“Several well-known right-wing commentators were saying that China would never commit material to Russia’s war effort, even whilst they’ve already committed in full to propping up Russia’s economy.”
They have no choice, just as russia has no choice. If russia is defeated then china would be next.
“the whole world is in the process of cutting ties to the Americans.”
And about time too. Fascist murderers that have spent 80 years slaughtering and enslaving are hardly who you want as “friends”.
“By the time the conflict in Ukraine is resolved, Kiev will have accepted the loss of its former territories, and Western-led globalization will be dead”
No it won’t. People that think the fascist west will stop because some slaves died are nuts.
“Would you do business with someone like this?”
They have no choice. Just as someone unlucky enough to be born in the jew-k has no choice but to be a slave to a fascist jew for their entire life.
“We fully understand that we can only rely on ourselves and build relations only with countries open to an equal and mutually beneficial partnership”
They’re just the same as the west – a bunch of fascist vermin who, because they have all the guns, force all the people they’ve enslaved to be their “workers”.
“should use their God- and nature-given advantages to develop mutually beneficial logistic, financial, and transport chains”
See? “transport chains”? FFS. All he wants is to do the exact same thing as the fascist west, controlling all the food, water, land, power and shelter of all the people he and his fascist pals have enslaved.
“We are entering a new age. The new age will be peaceful, heterosexual, and defined by the Chinese system of cooperation through global commerce”
Yeah, just like the old one. A handful of vermin making up whatever “laws” they feel like, telling billions how to live their lives, controlling them through “digital” crap and because they “own” all the land and all the companies. Do you think the chinese fascist dictatorship will be any different to the jew-k or jew-sa dictatorships?
“In my view, anyone supporting Jews maintaining power is stupid and dangerous”
In my view, allowing any human to have any power over you in any way is stupid.
It is a question of layers and which one you focus on–the multi-polar world is from a decision made by Globalists: we can hardly refrain from thinking globally in any case
I don’t know why people talk down Chinese-made goods the way they do. When I was a kid their plastic Hong Kong toys were really naff but today China makes good gear. Some of my household goods made there is solid kit. Battery charger, wind-up radio, solar power-banks, tools, kitchen and electric goods.
If their products lacked quality and reliability like they’re accused of China could never have become a world power let alone the dominant power it will soon become.
The Anal Empire, that’s the best description of Zoguk and zogUSA yet. It sums up Crowleyism (Talmud for Goys) perfectly.
Jewish pride will be the downfall of the Bolshevik agenda. It all stems from the rabbinical force fed indoctrination of every Jew into thinking they are some kind of supreme race on planet Earth, when the truth is they’re nothing more than a race of parasitic, marauding, nation-wrecking, psychotic, murdering, THIEVING pedophiles and slave traders. The world is sick to death of these assholes. Every nation on Earth has tasted their shit, and in most cases, cast these scoundrels out, and it’s high time the “Jewish Problem” was solved ONCE AND FOR ALL. Their hatred of all those who aim to hold them accountable for crimes against humanity, makes them want to annihilate all other races but their own since all other races have been oppressed and raped by them. Hitler was right ; they are the MOST STUPID PEOPLE HE EVER MET. Being crafty, devious, and cunning with money doesn’t make you virtuous. Being murderers of MILLIONS of non-Jews doesn’t make you virtuous, being the world’s great thieves doesn’t make you virtuous. These scumbags MUST BE OBLITERATED.
More pro-Commie disinfo. Lavrov = Jew. What they don’t tell you is that:
Russia = ZOG
Ukraine = ZOG
USA/UK/NATO = ZOG
A grand Semitic setup to wipe out whites in some Orwellian war. Their plan is to create an all nonwhite world–this war is advancing white genocide–thanks to Chandala Lubavitch & their two Commie agents: Jutin/Zelensky. Now you know.
That flushing shound you hear is the US/UK (((Anal Empire))) going down the drain… for good!!!
Dear Mr Lavrov : globalism ends only
when you exterminate the plutocrazy
around Rothschild-Rockefeller-Soros-Fauci
B Gates- Klaus Schwab- A Bourla- B´naiB´rit-
Schiff-Goldman Sachs-Black Rock-Vanguard-
Chertoff-Silverstein-Goldstein-Monsanto and the
international Illuminaty-Freemason mafia (more
than 5 million worldwide!) .
EXTERMINATION !
Mr Lavrov you dont needmissiles to terminate the
mentioned pest of the world .
your FSB surely has files about those persons + knows
their where abouts . advise your FSB to train good
moslem assassines or skilled hindu thugs loyal to
russia . christians are weak (too much remorse) .
“Lavrov: When the Ukraine Conflict Ends, Globalism Will End”
The Bible says otherwise.
Revalation 13 especially, speaks of a One World Government based in Jerusalem, ruled by the Beast who is given his power by Satan, who has been cast out of his spiritual home to physically appear on earth with the other fallen angels (an apparent Extra-terrestrial invasion!).
Revelation 12:7 And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels,
Revelation 12:8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found any more in heaven.
Revelation 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
…
Revelation 13:5 And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies; and power was given unto him to continue forty and two months.
Revelation 13:6 And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God, to blaspheme his name, and his tabernacle, and them that dwell in heaven.
Revelation 13:7 And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations.
Revelation 13:8 And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
Revelation 13:9 If any man have an ear, let him hear.
…
Revelation 13:16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads:
Revelation 13:17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
According to Ezekiel Chapters 38 and 39 at some point “in the latter days”, Gog, the land of Magog (Russia) and her allies, including Gomer (Germany), Togarmah (Turkey), Persia (Iran), Ethiopia, Libya and many others will invade Israel and be defeated.
EVERYBODY KNOWS
(Leonard Cohen <==== Ha!)
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded
Everybody rolls with their fingers crossed
Everybody knows the war is over
Everybody knows the good guys lost
Everybody knows the fight was fixed
The poor stay poor, the rich get rich
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows that the boat is leaking
Everybody knows the captain lied
Everybody got this broken feeling
Like their father or their dog just died
Everybody talking to their pockets
Everybody wants a box of chocolates
And a long-stem rose
Everybody knows
And everybody knows that you love me baby
Everybody knows that you really do
Everybody knows that you've been faithful
Ah, give or take a night or two
Everybody knows you've been discreet
But there were so many people you just had to meet
Without your clothes
And everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
Everybody knows, everybody knows
That's how it goes
Everybody knows
And everybody knows that it's now or never
Everybody knows that it's me or you
And everybody knows that you live forever
Ah when you've done a line or two
Everybody knows the deal is rotten
Old Black Joe's still pickin' cotton
For your ribbons and bows
And everybody knows
And everybody knows that the plague is coming
Everybody knows that it's moving fast
Everybody knows that the naked man and woman
Are just a shining artifact of the past
Everybody knows the scene is dead
But there's gonna be a meter on your bed
That will disclose
What everybody knows…
The appalling Keir Starmer says the transition to renewable energy is vital for Britain’s national security. It’s plain to all that changing what works to what doesn’t work very well and often doesn’t work at all can only send society backwards, but this traitor is pushing for the WEF to take over Britain and install them in place without reliable means for us to remove them. That’s the only security he’s working towards.
This wolf talks like he’s the shepherd but he’ll kill as many sheep as he can with vaxx mandates. He doesn’t need the votes because they’ll install him but they do need to make it look like he was our choice, or his illegitimate government will be clear to see and the resistance to his mandates will find sympathy.
All Freemasonic Theatre.
It could only be some form of globalism that made a billionaire of explorer Hamish Harding, who I don’t recall hearing of before, who has been reported missing on a “tourist” dive three miles deep to where the Titanic rests. The tour reportedly costs £250,000 to those who take it, but the Titanic is the grave of many and it should be left alone. I suspect the real reason for these visits is not to reclaim remains as was recently reported, but to see if it’s economically viable to try recover some of the many valuables that went down with her. A treasure hunt.
Sorties at those depths are always risky, but sometimes so is disturbing the dead.

Labrov says, “Today, there is an understanding that growth processes need to be regionalized and this vision prevails,” Lavrov said. “All the countries of this vast continent should use their God- and nature-given advantages to develop mutually beneficial logistic, financial, and transport chains.” This statement is a core tenant of the entire globalist movement.
What Lavrov is really posing on the world stage is the question, “How would you like you coffee, with cream or without it?” Would we like a multi-polar globalism where the major powers control various speres of influence all under that one-world globalist money-power-run government already controlling just about everything, or would we like a unipolar one where the US and the UK control everything, two nations which are actually controlled by the same money power. Duuh, even most American and Brits, including their leading stakeholder institutions no longer want or think they can run the world with all nations of the world being vassal nations.
The leading stakeholder banks, financial institutions and corporations are still rooted in the West, but they are the very ones which have fostered the international and transnational movements, and which are behind the globalist UN-WEF-NWO Agendas and Reset.
So, coming out the great Russian victory in the Ukraine, a war which the West never really fought, is that more moderate view of globalism free of the dominance of the US dollar and Western colonialism which in any case died long ago with more and more corporations wanting to be free of national controls, and taxes and wanting a more universal government structure to operate within and to control other nations for their benefit.
The Biden administration is just a carryover from the Obama globalist administration where the US currency and visible aspects of the US-UK-NATO empire were being deliberated crashed with all sorts of propaganda to serve that end of a dominate global government. The Trump administration was only there to placate the natives and beat the sovereignty drum.
Labrov is one more globalist shill working for the same money power which controls the entire West. Russia and China are in the same boat and share the same plans. The war in the Ukraine was a planned just as the Covid plandemic was planned. They have already divided the globe up into multipolar regions, and they have drawn lines all over the world for their planed trade routes. If the West is to capitulate in some aspect of control over Asian development, the money power is already in control of all of the developing finances – even China. The money power gained its financial leverage in that nation in the 19th century with the opium trade and has never really given up its controls.
What we are being subjected to now is not “the truth” but simply the evasion of the question of whether or not we actually “need” a centralized global power replacing the self-government of nations by the self-determination of their peoples, now subordinated in much the same way as the Coke versus Pepsi ads. That question was decided by the power moguls of the world over 50 years ago, in their exploits to centralize and concentrate more and more wealth and power into their hands. Now they just have to bring it about ensuring that the people believe that the technocratic and totalitarian controls over virtually everything in their lives are “necessary”, and that we have no other choices.
First of all, we are dealing with top-down sycophant and sociopath people heading up every major institution on the planet, who believe that they have an absolute right and even a duty to deceive and lie to their own people, to bring about their globalist plans, mainly to serve their various stakeholder interests. Some even believe their own BS. In any case, they all believe that the only people they really have to fool are people in nations where the people still believe in principle that they are or ought to be free.
Secondly, and what follows from this first premise is that the people in Russia and China have no real history, certainly over the past 120 years, of any real freedom, and it is only mainly in the West where the psyops and perception management expenditures have to be so sophisticated and vast. Russia is pivotal and more free to be a leader to institute the globalist regime, with the leading nations of the West, the US and the UK, faking opposition and pretending to be empire building while in fact their major stake-holding groups and the money power behind them are the very source and instigators of the entire globalist cause for more and more centralized global controls.
You cannot argue with or trust any “globalist stakeholder” organization. Stakeholder organizations claim to represent the individuals in them, but they are ALL top-down organizations, ultimately controlled by thew same money power, with not very much actual autonomy when subjected to the globalist stakeholder groupthink. Our federal governments are “stakeholders”. Major corporations are stakeholders. Huge Foundations such as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation are stakeholders. We as people are not stakeholders except maybe by investing in some large corporation busy swallowing up the smaller ones. If you think your government will represent your interests, that your vote in federal elections means anything, that they or the mainstream media will even listen to you, then you are totally naive.
Nation-centered democracy is completely controlled by the same internationalist money power in any nation claiming to be democratic,
The people running things do not really live in the present. They are power moguls who control the history of the past so that they can control the future. They are control freaks who similar to some architects even want to control the color of socks people will wear in their designs. The only real opposition to the globalist movement doing away with all real individual rights and freedoms over life, liberty and security of the person, (and not nonsense such as LGBT rights designed to deflect and divide us) is the very unorganized and grass-roots effort to desacralize control over currencies and to go local with parallel societies. However, that movement to the internationalist-stakeholder-globalist community is something they do not really fear and are confident that with top-down regulations and coercive laws they can completely control. Jospeh Patrick Watson was absolutely right in saying for years that we are living in a prison planet.
During Covid we had a taste of how oppressive the actual totalitarian plans are to be in this “fourth industrial revolution” described by Mr. Schwab of the WEF, to which Russia and China are in fact on all fours with, as are every major Western stakeholder organization.
As for Anglin, here is my own take as to his trustworthiness which goes for Unz as well. Anglin is the editor of the Daily Stormer. Everything he has ever done since coming out of the left and the fake global warming movement, has been crafted to create controversy for the use of the very Zionist control freaks he criticizes. He has done more in his harassments and vitriol against Jews to further Zionist efforts to pass laws suppressing any legit criticism of their stealth than anyone else on the Western stage.
The Jewish money power is so vast from their 2,000 year war against the goyim in always working from the sidelines, funding both sides of various wars and conflicts, while constantly working in a unified way for tribal advancement and global dominance, that they even are able to craft and control their own opposition organizations in the nations they control, one of them being the US.
As for globalism, either of the unipolar of the multipolar sort, we do not need it, because with the on-going death of demand, particularly in the West, with our aging populations we are now facing even greater economic shrinking than anything being contrived by the globalist charlatans, because of the coming population collapse which even with open-door immigration polices we cannot control, and every individual nation more than ever now will simply have to control its own destiny to avoid privation. However, the globalists knowing this want to do away with borders and control the herding according to their own designs.
Once again Aleister makes most sense..
the end bit really made me chortle!!
great writing.
What the man writes about the semitic ‘west’ leading the charge toward the Emanuel Goldstein ‘global’ order is accurate but it still bugs me to read ‘made in China’ on most manufactured items.
This is an excellent article by Andrew Anglin thanks admin. It all comes down to do you think globally ( Jew hegemony) or do you think worldly (sovereignty).
Best explanation I heard, the Titanic lies exactly on the NM fault line ridge ..
‘The submersible promptly ran into trouble on the clapping NM fault line, wich runs underwater from the Seaway exit to the Azore triplate junction. This underwater part of the faultline is pulled apart slightly on a daily basis, an iterative stretch and return wich might be called clapping.
Unless the voyage was timed to visit when the fault line was open the clapping could spell disaster to the submersible.’
