Don't forget, the Brits lost the Revolutionary War. What are they really up to?
And our stock market / real estate market falls were a ruse to get the rest of the world thinking that the US is a doomed, former superpower, so we can wait for nightfall and jump out and surprise them and take them over.
All your markets are belong to us.

Golytsin spelled this deception out for James Angleton for the CIA, setting off a string of intelligence-community controversies that eventually drove Angelton (a) mad, and (b) from office.
Suffice it to say that about 100%+- of what Anatoliy Golitsyn had to say has proven eerily accurate in the post-Soviet world.
Read the book.
Because everyone knows it's easier to invade West Germany from hundreds of miles away through unfriendly territory than from East Germany.
Hogwash on yer hogwash! And vegetarian, Kosher hogwash on my hogwash.
Putin the “reformer” admits he personally never left the Communist Party. A keen-eyed observer of the CNN TV report on the December, 1999 Russian parliamentary elections spotted Putin presenting his I.D. to the clerk so he could vote.
The I.D. clearly showed the letters CCCP on the inside of the booklet — his official Soviet Union Communist Party ID. The authoritative British journal, “Soviet Analyst” commented that CNN ignored this “curiosity.”
He's been about disarmament since the 1980s (look at his Columbia piece that has been floating around since the first of this year).
It's about knocking this country down and bowing to our betters.
Gorbachev tried to save Communism by reforming it, and fell flat on his face.
Yeltsin may have been a national hero, but he was also a drunken fool. "Staging the fall" was beyond him and his supporters.
The part about the West lowering its guard is pretty clear.
The guard has been lowered.
Don’t laugh...there are people who think along those lines...:(
I wanted to post a “hehehe”, but somehow...nearly any humor that has anything to do with markets is like an exploding cigar.
Especially the clown who posted the thread.
Read the book.
Any one who thinks communism is dead is just NOT paying
attention.
Irregardless if Russia and the USSR faked its collapse or it was genuine, it STILL remains a threat, and it is STILL communist at heart. All you need to do is look at Vladimir Putin, his background, and the actions of the Russian government and most of the governments of the “Former” Soviet Union (Except the Ukraine [and even here it is dicey] and the Caucuses states)

To be added to or removed from this list, please FReepmail me...
Putin NEVER left the CPSU. In fact, he briefed the Communist Party Russian Federation late last fall, blaming the US for the world economic collapse and said that “Things will be better soon for us, comrades”...
Here it is straight from the horse's mouth (Russia-China global domination and Putin's longing for a return to the 'glory days' of the Soviet Union)...
"the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the [20th] century" -Russian leader Vladimir Putin on the collapse of the Soviet Union...
"World democratic opinion has yet to realize the alarming implications of President Vladimir Putin's State of the Union speech on April 25, 2005, in which he said that the collapse of the Soviet Union represented the 'greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the century.'

[2009] Russia, China plan new joint military exercises
By MARTIN SIEFF, UPI Senior News Analyst
Published: March 26, 2009
WASHINGTON, March 26 (UPI) -- The continuing tensions over Russia's refusal to sell its state-of-the-art land warfare advanced weapons systems to China hasn't interrupted the rhythm of major joint military exercises between the two major land powers on the Eurasian landmass. The latest in the regular, biennial series of exercises between the two nations has been confirmed for this summer.
The next in the now well-established series of exercises called Peace Mission 2009 will be carried out in northeastern China, the Russian Defense Ministry announced March 18, according to a report carried by the RIA Novosti news agency.
The first bilateral Peace Mission maneuvers -- described at the time as counter-terrorism exercises -- were held in Russia and the eastern Chinese province of Shandong in August 2005. As we reported at that time, they were a lot bigger than mere counter-terrorism exercises. Warships, squadrons of combat aircraft and more than 10,000 troops were involved carrying out landings against hypothetically hostile shores. The maneuvers also involved large-scale paratroops drops. The scale and nature of those exercises suggested a trial run for a possible Chinese invasion of Taiwan with Russian support. ..."

Russia, China flex muscles in joint war games
August 17, 2007
CHEBARKUL, Russia (Reuters) - Russia and China staged their biggest joint exercises on Friday but denied this show of military prowess could lead to the formation of a counterweight to NATO.
"Today's exercises are another step towards strengthening the relations between our countries, a step towards strengthening international peace and security, and first and foremost, the security of our peoples," Putin said.
Fighter jets swooped overhead, commandos jumped from helicopters on to rooftops and the boom of artillery shells shook the firing range in Russia's Ural mountains as two of the largest armies in the world were put through their paces.
The exercises take place against a backdrop of mounting rivalry between the West, and Russia and China for influence over Central Asia, a strategic region that has huge oil, gas and mineral resources.
Russia's growing assertiveness is also causing jitters in the West. Putin announced at the firing range that Russia was resuming Soviet-era sorties by its strategic bomber aircraft near NATO airspace.

War Games: Russia, China Grow Alliance
September 23, 2005
In foreign policy it’s critical to “know thine enemy.” So American policymakers should be aware that Russia and China are inching closer to identifying a common enemy — the United States.
The two would-be superpowers held unprecedented joint military exercises Aug. 18-25. Soothingly named “Peace Mission 2005,” the drills took place on the Shandong peninsula on the Yellow Sea, and included nearly 10,000 troops. Russian long-range bombers, the army, navy, air force, marine, airborne and logistics units from both countries were also involved.
Moscow and Beijing claim the maneuvers were aimed at combating terrorism, extremism and separatism (the last a veiled reference to Taiwan), but it’s clear they were an attempt to counter-balance American military might.
Joint war games are a logical outcome of the Sino-Russian Friendship and Cooperation Treaty signed in 2001, and reflect the shared worldview and growing economic ties between the two Eastern Hemisphere giants."
