Paul Craig Roberts – paulcraigroberts.org Oct 16, 2025
I have emphasized the extreme danger Western peoples face from empowering leaders or decision makers who do not exist in reality. Instead, they live in false narratives of their own construction.
At a meeting of defense ministers of NATO countries, the NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte presented a fantasy picture of overwhelming NATO military superiority over Russia. Rutte declared that “our military is infinitely superior to the Russian military.” He said the Russian air force cannot “even stand in the shadow” of NATO’s powerful force and that the Russians do not have “well trained fighter pilots.”
It is difficult to imagine a person as stupid as Rutte. The British Home Secretary says Britain cannot even defend her own borders, and neither can France, Germany, the Dutch, Italy, Spain, but they can defend Ukraine’s borders and Europe’s borders from Russia. How can these towers of babel defend against Russians when they are totally incapable of defending against immigrant-invaders? There is no Europe, no NATO. There is a Muslim Caliphate.
Trump lives in the same make-believe world. He recently announced that the Russian economy is collapsing, that the Russian work day is lost to the work force standing in long gas lines due to successful Ukrainian attacks on Russia’s energy infrastructure, and that Ukraine has inflicted 1.5 million casualties on Russian military forces. 1.5 million casualties is the size of the Russian military. So why isn’t Ukraine in Moscow?
The statements by Rutte and Trump have no relationship to reality. The Russian military would not permit Putin to fight the war in the limited and restricted way Putin has been doing if the result was so dire for Russia. The Russians have restricted their efforts to driving the Ukrainians out of the Russian province of Donbas and have made no effort to prevent Kiev from continuing its resistance.
I have presented the case many times that this is a strategic blunder by Putin resulting from his misunderstanding of the West and its intentions toward Russia. But the fact that Putin has chosen not to conquer Ukraine, but only to evict them from the Russian areas, does not mean Russia lacks the means.
Putin has made no attempt to prevent Kiev’s ability to continue the conflict. He hasn’t told me the reason. Possibly, he did not want to lend confirmation to Western propaganda that he was on a path to restoring the Soviet Empire. Possibly he did not want the responsibility for restoring a destroyed Ukraine, whose existence except for the last 30 years was a province of Russia and the Soviet Union. Ukraine as an independent state is the artificial creation of the collapse of the Soviet government in 1991 when the Soviet Politburo placed Soviet President Gorbachev under house arrest. Washington rushed in, and created brand new independent countries out of former Russian and Soviet provinces. This was done in order to reduce Russia’s ability to defend itself. Russia’s population and resources were reduced. Russia lost its buffer zones, and the West went to work creating animosity toward Russia in the new countries Washington created out of former Russian provinces.
All of this should have told Putin what the score is. However, it does seem that Putin is so much an out-of-date early 20th century American liberal that the reality of the situation is unacceptable to him.
To again state what I see as the inevitable nuclear war: Rutte and Trump and all of Western foreign policy makers and war planners are misreading Putin and the situation. The are convinced that they are dealing with a militarily incapable Russian pussycat that will collapse under enough pressure. Putin, as a result of his own misreading of the situation, has given them this dangerous misconception.
Sooner or later Putin’s illusions of Western good will, delusions of Western rationality, will desert him. And that is when SHTF.

Another jew denier. How can they be “out of touch with reality”? Under your delusion, they accidentally lied during elections, were mistakenly put in “power” and are now bumbling about in a dream world of their own making. If there was a school (and there probably is somewhere) that had convicted pedos throughout the “teaching” staff, wouldn’t you think there was something wrong and that something should be done? Well, just look at who is dictating to you! Every single one a jew. Every single one a liar. Every single one a million/billionaire. Every single one an “israhell first” bag of shit. But you don’t even need to do that. Are things geetting “better”? Is “freedom” breaking out all over the place? Are the “immigrants” going back where they came from? Has anyone been sent to jail? Are the jewjabs over and done with? Are the queers back in the “closet”? Do you have a health “care” system? Do you have an “education” system? Is everyone dancing around in shiny red shoes of happiness?
Trump and Western politicians are legends in their own minds!😢👌
The way Trump is going he may end his administration before a serious fight with Russia develops. He should have been magnaminous and not retaliated with lawfare against his political opponents. It seems in no way even with the power to issue Executive Orers he is more powerful than the hundreds of members of the Senate and House of Representatives, the State Legislatures and countless judges. At the moment he can make demands because they defer to the Office of the President, but wait until they don’t.
And then there’s MAGA betrayed, and the US people turning against Israel who he is serving; and all the people working through shutdown who might be denied back pay, and all those denied food stamps and healthcare insurance. Trump forgets in America people like him with no reverse gear often get shot.
if you haven’t figured it out yet, the war is simply being staged to waste whitey; both ‘sides’ (NATOUkraine/Russia) are ruled by Jews
Putin is close to achieving his declared strategic objectives. Elensky is renting out his army to NATO so they can use it to attack Russia.
That is pretty much what’s happening there.
Don’t worry Tommy Tommy Tommy will sort it out.He is currently in Tel Aviv on special invite from Cretinyahoo….the jew might get rid of him considering considering all the trouble he has causes.
No doubt he will return to Britain freshly cashed up……with big plans for civil unrest.
It is possible this is all pre-planned……since Starmer was given a special pension involving special legislation…like the senior figures under Starmersteen including the woman from accounts…..all of Starmers underlings…are crypto jews.The performers at Tommy’s shindig seemed to be mostly jews….including fudgepacker Dan Wooton….an over-the-top gay jew from NZ.
THINGS ARE NOT LOOKING GOOD IN BRITAIN..IF ONLY THEY COULD REMOVE THE CRYPTO JEW STARMER……
yes. all politicians want bring there fantasy world .
also the nazis, zionists, communists, scientolges,
masonry/Illuminaty, witnes jehova, mormons,
moslems want realize their fantasy world .
@RUTTE is a demonic possesed warmonger put
by TPTB on his position as good follower of
demonic masonry rituals . hopefuly soon accused
with pope Leo + others by peoples justice (not by ICI) .
I keep asking – is this the 5′-9″ or 6′-3″ Trump? Nobody seems to reply. Obviously if you ever watched Trumps podcasts from over 8 years ago, and what spills out of the modern day Trump – this is another puppet installed by the Zios. My take, but this really doesn’t appear to be the real Trump, either that or Yahu the Nut has Trump by the short and curlies with possession of the Epstein files.
if w w 2 went badly for the UK
Winston Churchill had a secret luxury bunker built in the canadian rockies
in the same way if ww 3 breaks out starmer will dash to israel
phone taps have already revealed the plan is now active

🇫🇷 What They’re Not Telling You. Nicolas Sarkozy has just been sentenced to 5 years in prison & it all traces back to his secret dealings with Muammar Gaddafi, Libya’s revolutionary leader who was once pushing for a united Africa under a gold-backed currency.
So why isn’t this everywhere on CNN, BBC, or France 24? 🎯Because this story exposes the hidden link between France’s colonial collapse in Africa, the Sahel Alliance (Mali/ Niger/ Burkina Faso) & the Western powers who brought down Gaddafi in 2011.
⚖️ The real reason Sarkozy is being prosecuted now.
💰 How Gaddafi allegedly funded Sarkozy’s 2007 campaign.
📩 What leaked Hillary Clinton emails revealed about nato’s motives in Libya.
🌍 Why Libya was destroyed after trying to free Africa from Western control.
🔥 How France’s current chaos connects to the loss of African resources. 🧩⬅️
This isn’t just about one corrupt president. It’s damage control / an attempt to bury the wider conspiracy behind Libya’s destruction & silence the names of others involved.’
