THE TSAR’S POPULARITY IN EUROPE IS ON THE RISE AND WHO IS TO BLAME?
A story from the Tsar’s media puppet, Sputnik news, speaking
to the comments of an Italian writer on how Europe is growing fonder of the
Russian leader, should not surprise anyone. But, is it true? Is there any
indication the Tsar’s popularity in Europe is growing? Actually, let me rephrase
that question. Is the Tsar’s popularity in Europe better than the US’s? Yes. Is that true universally in Europe? Nothing
is universal in this world. The fact of the matter is, the Tsar popularity in
Europe may very well be about to eclipse Europe’s opinion of US leadership. Just
imagine where this conversation may be heading if Donald Trump wins the US
Presidential Election? The Tsar may end up being the only leader in Europe that
will talk to Trump!
So, let’s accept the fact the Tsar’s popularity is on the
rise in Europe and let’s ask ourselves why?
A few months ago, I addressed the issue of weak, progressive
leadership in Europe being blamed for the crisis of the human wave that descended
upon the Continent. While all these compassionate European leaders where
reaching out to waves of people they had no idea who they were or even where
they came from, the Tsar was keeping the doors to Russia closed! Was he a villain
for doing so? Give him a call and see if he regrets his actions! Putin’s popularity
grows for one reason in Europe and it will continue to grow. He represents an attitude
of “my people first”! Those in Europe who have a perception of the entire continent
becoming unstable for the most part blame the massive waves of people simply walking
into their countries. Are these Europeans selfish, heartless or even cruel?
That is a matter of perception, but I will tell you the perception battle in
Europe is being won by those who feel things are out of control.
In 2017, a series of elections will be held in Europe and I
predict that at the end of the day, the liberal governments of Europe will be
hard pressed to maintain power. Those who were once labeled “Radical Right” are
taking on the perception of concerned citizens.
The swing to the right in Europe is undeniable. How far this
swing continues is based upon the world’s ability to stabilize the Middle East
and parts of Africa and both of those goals are going to be more and more difficult to achieve, especially from Progressive,
Liberal governments in Europe.
For now, Europe has one leader who gives the people of
Europe the perception of placing his citizens first. Yep. You know who that is.
Why is Putin’s popularity growing in Europe? Is it because,
as the West / US / says, he has a great propaganda media machine?
Why is it, when governance fails to meet the expectations of
the people they are sworn to serve, it’s never their own fault?
The West / US / progressive attitude towards world problems
has kicked the can so far down the street that the world has run out of street!
Putin’s media machine is not exclusively responsible for his
growing popularity in Europe.
If his growing popularity worries European / US / leaders,
they need only look in the mirror for most of the answer as to why it is
happening.
The rise of Nationalism in Europe?
Is it going to be seen as a danger to the nations of Europe?
Is it going to be seen as being more dangerous that what is
taking place now?
Is that the next movement?
Europe has a long history of repeating mistakes.
They are well on their way!
