The Empire Advances by Marginalizing the Truth

Lt. Gen. Vincent Stewart (1958-2023), Semper Fi!
The Constitutional American Republic is still strong, and many still stand strong in their faith, but a domestic secular drive to become an American Empire has become politically, economically, and culturally dominant and is straining every nerve to maintain its dominance. As usual, power tends to corrupt and creates false narratives to sustain its power. The American Empire is advancing by marginalizing fundamental reality and truth. This pertains to many aspects of American life and culture but also extends to a morally bent foreign policy.

The Amazing Survival of Russian Christianity
![Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow was Consecrated in 2000](/images/18-08/Cathedral-of-Christ-the-Savior-in-Moscow-was-Consecrated-in-2000.jpg)
Cathedral of Christ the Savior in Moscow was Consecrated in 2000.
As early as 867 AD, there were probably Christian missions and churches in the Kievan-Rus State, the predecessor of the Russian Empire. We know that the Kievan-Rus had considerable contact with Byzantine Christians in Constantinople. Vladimir the Great (958-1015) was raised as a pagan, but his grandmother, Olga, was a Christian and had considerable influence on her grandson. After much study and negotiation, Vladimir became a Christian. Many of his subjects were already enthusiastic Christians, when he became the Ruling Prince of the Kievan-Rus in 980 and called all his subjects to baptism in the Dnieper River. This 980 date is generally considered the formal beginning of Christianity in Russia.

An Election Map Tells It All
Ukraine Presidential Election Map 2010. Percent for Viktor Yanukovych
Sixty to ninety percent of the voters in Crimea and 8 other southern and eastern oblasts voted for Yanukovych: Donetsk 90%, Lugansk 89%, Crimea 78%, Odessa 74%, Zaporizhia 72%, Mykolaiv 72%, Kharkiv 71%, Dnepropetrovsk 63%, and Kherson 60%. These correspond to Russian primary language percentages of 50 to 90 percent. \
This map shows pretty clearly where Russian language and culture predominate, which is a major factor underlying the Civil War beginning in 2014 and the current conflict between the Ukrainian government and the Russian Federation. A major issue since 2014 and the U.S. backed Maidan coup, which forced Yanukovych out of office, has been Ukrainian government discrimination against Russian ethnicity and ethnic cleansing of Russian language, religion, and culture. Since close to 5,000 Russian ethnic civilians in the Donbass region (Donetsk and Lugansk oblasts) have been killed largely by Ukrainian artillery shelling of civilian areas, some have termed this ethnic genocide.

New CIA Release Blames Rogue Ukrainian Intelligence Group
![CIA Nordstream Intelligence or Cover Story](/images/18-08/CIA-Nordstream-Intelligence-or-Cover-Story.jpg)
According to a New York Times article released May 5, 2023, and a similar article in the Nation, the same day, the CIA has released new information that a group associated with Ukrainian Intelligence agencies, with possible Polish help, disabled the Nordstream pipelines on September 26, 2022. The articles distance any responsibility by Ukrainian President Zelensky, Ukrainian leadership, or the Biden Administration. The articles also allege that Ukraine had secretly developed “very advanced” underwater warfare technology, and that its intelligence agencies had a budget of $4.0 billion. The motive was saving Ukraine, a major natural gas supplier, from economic disaster. A much less sophisticated version of this theme regarding a crew of six, including two divers, on a 50-foot sailing yacht, appeared in the New York Times in March.

The Demonization of Vladimir Vladimirovich Putin

Russophobia as U.S. Foreign Policy and Media Culture
![Russian President Vladimir Putan](/images/18-08/Russian-President-Vladimir-Putan.jpg)
A few days before Tucker Carlson was dismissed from Fox News, Fox News 9:00 PM host Sean Hannity began his evening show with a statement something like, “We know Putin is evil.” Soon thereafter, Fox News host and contributor Mark Levin chimed in with a few phrases condemning and demonizing Putin. Do we know Putin is evil or is it that we are constantly told by Deepstate politicians and their captive media that Putin is evil? What is the objective basis of such a statement? Would the assumed facts hold up to cross examination and analysis? Given the establishment media’s failure to make the obvious connections between the February 24, 2022, Russian invasion and the February 2014 U.S. State Department-backed coup and regime change in Ukraine, reasonable people have formidable cause to doubt the wisdom and factual basis of such careless and inflammatory language. Moreover, the resulting eight years of continuing war and cultural genocide perpetrated by the new coup-based Ukrainian government against the large Russian ethnic population concentrated in eastern and southern Ukraine gives us a righteous discomfort with such defamation. Both Hannity and Levin also engaged in an episode of this sort of Putin demonizing in February of this year. Moreover, in two previous interviews with President Trump, Hannity had pressed Trump very hard to condemn Putin. Trump, to his credit, refused to engage in such dangerous rhetoric. First of all, Trump is strong enough to maintain his objectivity, and second, smart enough not to make statements that would wreck any possibilities of future negotiations with Putin or the Russian Federation on Ukraine or any other issue.
