LAVROV ON BBC’S HARDtalk. “ LOOKS LIKE GENOCIDE BY SANCTIONS”!


               Mr. Lavrov agrees to be interviewed on HARDtalk? Why? The Russians know this is the BBC’s version of the US’s old Morton Downey Show. Not exactly Mr. Larov’s style of communicating. So, why? Why agree to sit with this loudmouth from London? Is it part of the Information Operation process as the Russians continue down the path towards some larger objective? Was it Mr. Lavrov being told to face the accusations against Russia, almost exclusively from the West? The answer is, both are correct. Yes the Russians seem to be rearranging the playing field the West is operating on, why wouldn’t they? So, let’s get past the question of why Mr. Lavrov came on this controversial show and let’s focus on the “message” he gave.

Genocide by Sanctions:

               Lavrov ended this rather heated interview with this comment. Any professional speaker knows his or her closing comment needs to be the strongest statement and Mr. Lavrov is a professional. If that doesn’t worry you, then you need to reevaluate your understanding of what is taking place here. “Genocide”! A world he would have carefully chosen. His admission that sanctions are hurting the Russian economy and the Russian people cannot be undervalued, but the use of the word “Genocide” has meaning far beyond economic impacts. I can assure you, as this interview was analyzed by the Intelligence community, that word struck a very alarming cord.  The West is practicing some level of Genocide on the Russian people? Is that truly the thought process in Moscow? Are the Russians that paranoid? It stuck me when he said this and it struck a lot of other people as well. It was perhaps the most alarming word ever to have been spoken by Russia’s Foreign Minister. What is going on here? How bad is this scenario between the West and Russia truly becoming? The Russian government, Putin, believes the West is practicing  a form of Genocide on the Russian people?  What other hints did Mr. Lavrov give?
Worse than a new Cold War:  
               “There are no safeguards”! Yes, the Cold War had “Safeguards”. Backchannel communications, proxy wars. The Cold War had escape valves to prevent open conflict between the Super Powers. Mr. Lavrov now states those Safeguards are gone. If there was a second statement in this interview that set the analyst back on their heels, it was this one. The stupid analyst, and there are thousands of them, will most likely blow this statement and interview off as Mr. Lavrov being agitated by the Host. Don’t you buy that for a second. This arrogant blowhard on the BBC is not capable of knocking Lavrov off his center. Yes, Lavrov had a few moments when he was inpatient with the Host, but he slapped him back into place with classic Russian style. I can just hear Lavrov’s mind clicking away. “Keep it up little man and you to will fall off your balcony”! Look, this statement about safeguards was thought out. The description of what they use to be and who has taken them away now was a very methodical approach. So, what was the real message with this statement? “Things are getting very dangerous”! To me, that is the implied message. Let’s hope the so called “experts” figure that one out. Okay, was there any glimmer of hope in Mr. Lavrov’s interview? Yes…..yes there was…………. But let’s hope it’s not overlooked.

Professional, Military to Military Communications:

               The Russian military and the US military continue to communicate, and Mr. Lavrov made that very clear. As I stated a few days ago, the strike was “communicated” to the Russians, you just must understand the US’s definition of “We”. What I did find odd about this segment of the show was my gut feeling Lavrov was implying something. If my theory of the Russians applying pressure at all corners of Western governance, was there a subliminal theme here of, “The US military can save the US from a true crisis………..a war”. There was just something about the way Lavrov broached this statement that set off my spider senses. Getting our house in order as Mr. Lavrov called it was an element of this message. So, the US government is a crisis in itself, but the US military is the true professional in the room? Interesting….very interesting. The art of destabilization is a skill craft the Russians are world leaders on. In a time of foolish political decisions, can the US military make decisions the civilian government doesn’t support? What happened with this “communication” that took place between the Russians and the US? Did the US military provide a greater picture of what was going to happen than the administration authorized? Is that the picture Lavrov is painting? Did that really happen, or is this just another tool in the Russian Information Operations weapon’s program? Yes, there were rumors in the US of the military not wanting to go as hard as The Donald wanted to, but that’s nothing new. Just look at Johnson and Vietnam. Och….bad example.  Tension between the US civilian government and the US military, is that the point of exploitation? If so, then we have our answer as to why Mr. Lavrov gave this interview.  No safeguards, a government practicing Genocide and a military in conflict with it’s own civilian leadership. Wow. This was a wild interview……maybe!
