THE MURDER OF SKRIPAL.  IS THE WEST MISSING THE MESSAGE?

               Yes! The Russians did it. It’s time to stop running around with your hair on fire and asked the far more important question. Why? Why would Putin make such a bold statement and why now? The world is littered with old, worn out Spies. Double Agents, Double, betraying Agents…………Agents that nobody on any side trusted. Some live out their lives and some do not. What was it that Mr. Skripal was responsible for that lead Putin to authorizing weaponized nerve agents to be used in a foreign land? Wait? Is that issue really that unusual? Does everyone forget the Cold War? Hasn’t just about every liberal media network in the world written a half-baked story about the “new Cold War”? Poison. How often did that “agent” get used in the East and West Germany? Has anyone covering this hysteria bothered to talk to any living Stasi member? Collateral damage? Is that the issue here?  Others were injured in this assassination? Just what was it that Mr. Skripal did that made the Russians break out the old KGB playbook? By the way, where did Mr. Putin come from? Was this issue really about Mr. Skripal or is there something else taking place? Why did the world react the way it has?

The New Putin:

               Time and time again,  I’ve addressed the issue of the Tsar and his Master Plan for the Russian Empire. In the past few years, I’ve stressed the concept of that Master Plan reaching Its end-state. I’ve always believed that after the 2018 election, the “New Putin” would step to the world stage. Perhaps he started taking those steps a few days early? It’s not like the election was in doubt. Yes, the action of the Russians with this case were bold, but in all likelihood, “bold” is the approach the Russians are going to take from now on. Yes, acts like this took place in the Cold War, but it was foolish for the rest of the world to believe we had collectively moved passed taking such actions. Why this one old spy? Who knows. Why now? That may be a much easier answer. The New Putin is here. The plan is in the final stage and what happens next is the most important question for all of us.
