Unlike democratic nations in the West whose leadership and political agendas change with every election, Russia’s communist doctrine dictates how its nation is run regardless of who sits in their presidential chair. Every Russian president has – and will be – thoroughly indoctrinated within the walls of the KGB / FSB prior to becoming president of Russia.
American political ideology, on the contrary, increasingly swings 180 degrees with each succeeding election and with each successive administration populated by an incestuous chain of internationally naive, Ivy League frat boys.
Putin’s communism is the same as Stalin’s almost a hundred years ago.
One of communism’s doctrinal pillars is it’s perpetual dedication to extinguishing democracy throughout the entire world – much like Islam’s doctrine to eradicate infidels.
Beginning with Lenin, Russian presidents’ first “go-to” weapon against the West has always been Propaganda (disinformatziya). Lenin called it his “favorite scalpel.”
“In 2007, the Wall Street Journal published my article titled “Propaganda Redux,” in which I exposed the Democrat Party’s noxious use of disinformation to denigrate the president of the United States in an effort to win national elections.
Criticizing the country’s president is as American as apple pie. Portraying him as the enemy of his own country is, however, an un-American phenomenon smuggled into the United States by the KGB disinformation machinery during the Cold War. My DIE (Rumania’s version of the KGB) was one of the smugglers.
In the Soviet empire’s sanctum sanctorum, to which I belonged, portraying the head of a country as its own worst enemy was called “political necrophagy.” It constituted a separate, highly classified branch of the “science” of disinformation.
As I heard from the lips of Khruschev himself, over and over: “Change the public image of the leader, and you change history.”
Now political necrophagy has spread to the United States and is eroding our own international prestige. During 2002, a group of 128 American intellectuals who opposed the notion that the “war on terrorism” was a “just war” sent a letter to their European counterparts calling for a “sane and frank European criticism of Bush’s war policy.- (see: DisInformation: by Lt. Gen. Ion Pacepa and Professor Ronald J. Rychlak, 2013; 355 pages, pg 352-3)
With the works of such authors as Alexander Sohlzenytzin (Gulag Archipelago, A Day In the Life of Ivan Ivanovitch) and the French authors of The Black Book of Communism, communism has largely been discredited throughout the world – at least with the literate, intelligent segment of society.
But communists, unlike the West, are waging The Long War. They never quit trying to destroy democracy regardless of the West’s desire to believe otherwise. It is founded in Karl Marx’ Communist Manifesto and Mao’s “Little Red Book” – most recently updated in a formerly classified document titled Unrestricted War by Senior Colonel Qiao Liang and Senior Colonel Wang Xiangsui in 1999.
Propaganda is the art of changing public perception. Pacepa notes in his book that Stalin’s disinformation campaign worked so well in 1930’s America that the “Useful Idiots” of the American intellectual elite adopted it and ran the program on their own with minimal guidance from the Soviet Union.
The latest example of this was the “Russia Hoax” campaign against Trump. The Democrat Left led by Hilary and Obama used communist political necrophagy to “alter the course of history.”
Prior to political correctness altering military doctrine and training, the army field manual Propaganda described “Information Operations” as three strategies: Black, White and Gray. Black propaganda was totally false information disseminated through “credible” media as Truth. White propaganda was True information that in itself caste a disparaging light on a person (like our politicians’ voting records). Gray propaganda was a mixture of Truth and Lie making it difficult for the audience to determine the Truth.
The best propaganda contains a kernel of Truth to be credible. “Yeah, [the Steele dossier is fake] – but doesn’t it ring True?” – Brennan, 2016.
The kernel of Truth in the Democrats’ “Russia hoax” was Trump’s frequent boast of a “long and friendly business relationship” with communist president Putin. From Trump’s hosting the Miss Universe Pageant in Moscow to his written contract with Putin for a Trump Tower: Moscow during his 2016 campaign there was ample “Oppo” against Trump to discredit his motive for running for president of the United States.
The plan was for Trump Tower: Moscow to be the tallest building in Europe, four-sided in gold plate, with TRUMP emblazoned on each side built directly across the street from the Kremlin.
While Hilary and Obama were using Russian disinformation tactics to discredit Trump, Putin was using American corporate tactics to groom a political candidate into a position where the candidate would be beholding to the most influential campaign donor. (see: Throw Them All Out! How Politicians, and Their Friends Get Rich Off Insider Stock Tips, Land Deals, and Cronyism That Would the Rest of Us to Prison by Peter Schweizer, 2011; 176 pgs, Part 2: Capitalist Cronies)
In an ironic twist of ideological warfare, Putin was using American corporate political strategy – playing both sides against the middle, betting on both sides to ensure Russian influence regardless of who won. And he learned it from the same source Hitler’s propaganda chief Goebbels learned it – American Edward Bernays’ book Propaganda, 1928.
Putin achieved another objective in the process: creating chaos in American politics. Causing the GOP-controlled congress to invest time and resources in holding hypocritical Russian-style “public trials” with a predetermined outcome – nothing being done.
Putin groomed Trump with catnip consisting of a gold Tower and supported the Russian-mob go-between claim “we can make this guy president of the United States! We can make this happen!” Those plans were in a written contract up to and during Trump’s campaign for president in 2016 – until Trump was asked about it by an inquiring media. The plans were quietly suspended because Trump’s advisors didn’t think the voting public would look too kindly on a presidential candidate being in business-bed with a communist.
In every instance of world history, when nations have been in peril, the people turn to the most bombastic, power seeking, flatterers to right the Ship of State: the Romans to their Caesars, Hitler after WW I; and Mussolini (Trump’s doppleganger) because he “made the railroads run on time.” The problem has always been – as George Romney once said – “The American people don’t act until its too late – then they over react.”
If the Democrat Left had been smarter about discrediting Trump they could have just exploited his real vulnerabilities – like his unethical business dealings, his bankruptcies, his lying to avoid the draft, lying about his connection to a Russian mobocrat acting as g0-between Trump and Putin regarding Trump Tower: Moscow; and Putin promising to support Trump’s election to the presidency of the United States (“We can make this happen!”) – Putin.
Just as Fortune 500 companies and Wall Street contribute to both political Parties during elections to ensure access and preference at tax payers’ expense, Putin plays both sides of the political aisle against each other. Putin doesn’t care who wins the presidency of the United States. All Putin cares about is who he can gain the most influence with.
Just like Corporate America.
Further evidence Putin wins by whetting Trump’s insatiable appetite for golden edifices is reflected in Trump’s political fellatio on Putin in the Russian invasion of Ukraine giving Putin “50 days to stop the war“). UPDATE: Trump reduced the time limit of his threat from 50 days to 10 days on July 27, 2025.
So, if, as he says “5,000 on both sides are dying every week!” counting the weeks he’s been giving Putin 50 days plus the week and a half more Trump is giving Putin before imposing “secondary sanctions,” how many people have died and are going to die because Trump really doesn’t want to lose that Trump Tower: Moscow “Deal“?
I hope American lives won’t ever be wasted in a foreign country Trump has business intentions with during the rest of his administration. Ten days is a long time when you are under fire.
By delaying sanctions that would strangle Putin’s invasion, Trump is as guilty of the Russian genocide in Ukraine as Putin – a co-conspirator by omission.
