"...we have this treasure in earthen vessels [our weak bodies], that the excellence of the power may be of God and not of us. We are hard pressed on every side, yet not crushed... perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed — always carrying about in the body the dying of the Lord Jesus, that the life of Jesus also may be manifested in our body." 2 Corinthians 4:7-10

 Liberals rap Kremlin as Stalin is worshipped: "Russian communists paid homage on Friday to Soviet leader Josef Stalin, while liberals accused the Kremlin of conniving to whitewash the dictator. Communist Party chiefs led a procession of largely elderly people across Red Square on the 57th anniversary of Stalin's death, laying flowers at his grave.... 'Today...the greatness of Stalin's era is self-evident even to his most furious haters,' Russian Communist Party leader Gennady Zyuganov said after laying flowers at Stalin's grave....

     " Critics call Stalin a murderer for the millions of deaths in his forced collectivization and Gulag prison camps.... After his death in 1953, the Kremlin launched a campaign to discredit Stalin.... But Stalin's backers have become bolder in recent years, and praise of the iron-fisted leader more prominent."

Education to make students 'revolutionaries': "Van Jones, President Obama's former 'green jobs' czar and a newly appointed Princeton lecturer, has a history of sparking protests against universities and previously slammed non-activist students as 'worthless people'....  Jones in the 1990s was the leader and founder of a radical group, the communist revolutionary organization Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM. The group's official manifesto, entitled 'Reclaiming Revolution,'" boasted 'we also saw our brand of Marxism as, in some ways, a reclamation.' STORM was...disbanded in 2003.

    "'We agreed with Lenin's analysis of the state and the party,' read STORM's manifesto. 'And we found inspiration in the revolutionary strategies developed by Third World revolutionaries like Mao Zedong and Amilcar Cabral.'...

    "In a 2005 Uprising Radio interview, Jones talked about using 'green' jobs to bring down the capitalist system." See Deceit, Delusion and the Destruction of America

Officer boasts of 12,000 spies: "BEIJING: A police chief has boasted of recruiting one in every 33 local residents as an informant.... The director of an Inner Mongolian public security bureau said officers had recruited 12,093 of his county's 400,000 inhabitants to provide intelligence, offering an unusual glimpse into the state's surveillance network. Liu Xingchen told the state news agency Xinhua the priorities were to collect information about conflicts... and to discover 'non-harmonious elements'." See One World - One Dream" - But what about Truth and Freedom?

Battling the Information Barbarians: "Thought control, in terms of imposing an official orthodoxy, is a very old tradition. The official glue that has long been applied to hold Chinese society together is a kind of state dogma....

      "Once China opened up to the world for business again in the late 1970s, under the leadership of Deng Xiaoping, the old problem of information control emerged once again. Deng and his technocrats wanted to have the benefit of modern economic and technological ideas, but, like the 19th century mandarins, they wished to ban thoughts which Deng called 'spiritual pollution.' ...Deng's attempt, which was only partly successful, was made far more difficult by the invention of the Internet....

     "China, with its army of cyberspace policemen, has been remarkably effective at Internet control, by mixing intimidation with propaganda. The intimidation encourages self-censorship, and nationalist propaganda creates suspicion of foreign criticism. It is not hard to find well-educated Chinese who buy the linmation imperialism."'

 China helped Pakistan nuke program: "China covertly helped Pakistan in developing its nuclear weapons program and continues that support even now while that assistance has become the basis for Pakistan's help with Iran's nuclear development effort.... 'In 1983, U.S. intelligence agencies reported that China had transferred to Pakistan a complete nuclear weapon design....'

     "Khan had developed an international nuclear espionage network to smuggle nuclear components into Pakistan and in turn assisted such countries as North Korea and Iran in creating their own nuclear weapons program. Zardari recently released Khan from house arrest, much to the consternation of the U.S. Yet, there is no evidence that his international network has been dismantled.... Khan himself remains under the protection of Pakistan's intelligence service."

US, China to step up military, space cooperation: "China and the United States pledged Tuesday to step up military exchanges and safeguard the peaceful use of outer space after talks between Chinese President Hu Jintao and ... Obama. The two countries vowed to take 'concrete steps to advance sustained and reliable military-to-military relations in the future,' according to a joint statement.... The statement added both sides were preparing for an exchange of visits between top defence officials.... Both sides will implement military exchange and cooperation programmes that will increase the 'level and frequency of exchanges.'" Deceptive Alliances

China and Communism. Rampant Chinese Spying: "A U.S. congressional advisory panel said Thursday that Chinese spies are aggressively stealing American secrets to use in building Beijing's military and economic strength. The U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission also said in its annual report to lawmakers that Beijing is building a navy that could block the U.S. military from getting to the region if fighting should break out between China and Taiwan, the self-governing island off China's southeastern coast that China claims as its own. The report follows President Barack Obama's visit this week to China, where he had extensive talks with President Hu Jintao." See the next link -- posted yesterday:

Obama, Hu vow to continue to strengthen partnership: "President Obama and his Chinese counterpart, Hu Jintao, emerged from two hours of talks Tuesday morning pledging to continue efforts to strengthen the growing partnership between the two countries, and to work together to address global challenges such as climate change, nuclear proliferation and sustaining the world's nascent economic recovery.

Communism's Enablers and Excusers: "Soviet communism might not have endured for 70 years had it not been for enablers in academia, religion and journalism.... When the wall fell, leftists could not bring themselves to admit they had been wrong, much less apologize for their misplaced faith. So they... made excuses.... Strobe Talbott, then of Time magazine and soon to be an influential member of the Clinton administration, wrote on Jan. 1, 1990, '(Soviet leader) Gorbachev is helping the West by showing that the Soviet threat isn't what it used to be, and what's more, that it never was.' How is it possible to simultaneously have been a threat, but not a threat? The millions who died in gulags, starved to death or were assassinated might have a different interpretation of Russian history under communism." See Into the Land of the Godless

Deja vu! Russians arming Cuba's military Plans include sensitive electronic eavesdropping station 90 miles from U.S.: "Russia is offering to modernize Cuba's deteriorating weapons systems – installed when the former Soviet Union was expanding worldwide – and it also wants to reactivate a sensitive electronic eavesdropping station on the nearby island at Lourdes, use Cuba as a base to refuel its bombers and a port to replenish supplies on its warships." See "Yuri Bezmenov on demoralization"

How Putin is Separating America from Europe: "My guest ... is Vladimir Bukovsky, a former leading Soviet dissident who spent twelve years in Soviet prisons, labor camps and psychiatric hospitals for his fight for freedom.... [Last April] you said the following: 'As it stands now and if there is no drastic rethinking and reformulating, [there will be] a chain of endless concessions by America.' And just recently we have witnessed such a concession. America has refused to deploy missiles to Eastern Europe and it received nothing in exchange. How would you comment on this development?...

     "It was surely done... in exchange for Russia’s support of American sanctions against Iran. But as soon as the Americans agreed, the Russians said that sanctions against Iran are too hard. And they have only increased their requirements. The plan of deploying missiles to Eastern Europe cannot be brought back anymore. The West is driving itself into a corner.... Russia is pushing America away from Europe.... Task 'number 2' is making Germany their leading ally in Europe. They have been doing it since Lenin’s times...and Hitler’s times....

     "The Americans do not understand who they are dealing with when it comes to Russia. They are dealing with the KGB and for KGB people you are either an enemy or their agent.....the Western people are always trying to find some compromise.... But for the KGB it is not natural at all. They understand it as weakness and a retreat and it only facilitates their requirements....

      "This kind of politics can lead to war, because appeasement only encourages and emboldens totalitarian regimes. The West will have to reply with military means sooner or later.... [Since Obama seeks disarmament -- and seems to favor Communist leaders around the world -- there may not be any military defense against Russia]

      "It is a pity that America does not want to criticize Russia for violation of human rights. ... Anti-democratic regimes are inclined to aggression.... The time will come, and America will understand the real content of Russian policy." See Orwell's Animal Farm

China/US Partnership. [Video] Obama Admin Allows Communist Flag Raising Over Washington, DC: Obama: "We can be certain about the issues that will define our times. And we also know this, the relationship between United States and China will shape the 21st century, which makes it as important as any bilateral relationship in the world. That really must underpin our partnership. That is the responsibility that together we bear."

China using stimulus to buy private rivals: "The Chinese government has been using its massive stimulus of the economy in part to reverse years of privatization and allow large state-owned enterprises to grab back assets in major industries. ...the consolidation drive is clearly troubling for private operators across many sectors in China."

Russia's Putin warns against intimidating Iran: "Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin warned major powers on Wednesday against intimidating Iran and said talk of sanctions against the Islamic Republic over its nuclear programme was 'premature'.... 'There is no need to frighten the Iranians,' Putin told reporters in Beijing after a meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation. 'We need to look for a compromise.'" See Real Conspiracies: Past and Present

Tentative Inspection Program Would Allow Russia to Visit U.S. Nuclear Sites: "Russia and the United States have tentatively agreed to a weapons inspection program that would allow Russians to visit nuclear sites in America to count missiles and warheads. The plan.... would constitute the most intrusive weapons inspection program the U.S. has ever accepted."  Yuri Bezmenov on demoralization

 Obama loosens missile technology controls to China: "President Obama recently shifted authority for approving sales to China of missile and space technology from the White House to the Commerce Department -- a move critics say will loosen export controls and potentially benefit Chinese missile development.... The presidential notice alters a key provision of the 1999 Defense Authorization Act that required that the president notify Congress whether a transfer of missile and space technology to China would harm the U.S. space-launch industry or help China's missile programs." The Communist - Capitalist Alliance

U.S. troop funds diverted to pet projects: "Senators diverted $2.6 billion in funds in a defense spending bill to pet projects largely at the expense of accounts that pay for fuel, ammunition and training for U.S. troops, including those fighting wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.... Among the 778 such projects, known as earmarks, packed into the bill: $25 million for a new World War II museum at the University of New Orleans and $20 million to launch an educational institute named after the late Sen. Edward M. Kennedy." [So many strange things are happening -- fast. Could this part of the plan for disarmament?] See The State of the World according to Gorbachev

Marching to world domination: Why the West should be worried about China: "China today celebrated its wealth and rising might with a show of goose-stepping troops, gaudy floats and nuclear-capable missiles in Beijing, 60 years after Mao Zedong proclaimed its embrace of communism.... But beneath today's orgy of celebrations that marks the anniversary lurks a disturbing reality. Mao's successors may have embraced cut-throat capitalism to a degree that makes even Western economists blanch. But the arrangements for the parade are a reminder that China remains a deeply authoritarian society.... And thanks to its low labour costs, it has become the world's third-largest trading power....

     "Once a peasant society, it has the largest number of mobile phone users in the world and the largest number of broadband consumers. It has some of the world's biggest and fastest-growing cities.... And almost unnoticed, it has become the world's biggest acquirer of foreign public debt. With some $800 billion of U.S Treasury securities, China now has a hold over the American economy that would have seemed unthinkable a few decades ago....

     "Sixty years ago, Xinjiang was home to the Turkic Uyghur people, most of them Muslim peasants, craftsmen and silk weavers. But since the Communist Revolution, millions of Han Chinese settlers have poured into the region, responding to government economic incentives. As a result, traditional Uyghur shops, mosques and bazaars have been torn down and replaced with bland Han-owned malls and offices....

     "...more than 750,000 Chinese have settled in Africa, and the red flag now flutters over jungles and prairies alike.... Vast Chinese-owned mines pay African labourers less than £1 a day to scratch out copper for the gigantic smoke-belching cities of East Asia. And deep in the heart of Africa, acres of forest are ripped down every day as timber for China's industrial revolution. ...in return, the Chinese are selling African leaders the assault rifles, warplanes and mortars they need for their bloody wars of conquest and ethnic cleansing.... Only last year, Zimbabwe's despotic Robert Mugabe received a cool £200m in Chinese military aid. And even the brutal slaughter in southern Sudan... was carried out with £55m-worth of Chinese weapons, sold to the Sudanese in defiance of a UN arms embargo....

     "...China itself is well on the way to becoming one of the world's dominant military powers. Already, its standing army alone has more than 2.25 million men.... With its new J-10 fighter jets, naval destroyers and Cruise missiles, the Chinese army... was a match for any in the Western world."

Bill Ayers Is Back: "He's just a guy who lives in the neighborhood." That was the lie Barack Obama told about his relationship with unrepentant domestic terrorist Bill Ayers during the presidential campaign....

     "Ayers, Dohrn and the Weather Underground did that through armed bank robberies, through bombings of the U.S. Capitol and dozens of other targets, through the murder of a San Francisco policeman and through the open advocacy of a reign of terror that went on for more than a decade.... He got away with murder....

     "Obama accepted cash political contributions from Ayers and Dohrn... as a 'community organizer' ready to launch his campaign for the Illinois Legislature in 2001. Obama launched his first bid for political office in the living room of their home in 1995. Michelle Obama invited Ayers to speak to a conference she organized in 1997 Barack Obama endorsed Ayers' book in 1997 – a book that references Ayers' neighbor, Obama." Deceit, Delusion and the Destruction of America

Ayers wrote Obama's book: "To flesh out his family history, Obama had taped interviews with various family members. Andersen writes, 'These oral histories, along with a partial manuscript and a truckload of notes, were given to Ayers.' ... 'Everyone knew they were friends and that they worked on various projects together. It was no secret.' ... 'In the end, Ayers' contribution to Barack's 'Dreams From My Father' would be significant – so much so that the book's language, oddly specific references, literary devices and themes would bear a jarring similarity to Ayers's own writing." See Don't Be Deceived!

Russia to modernize and train Cuban military: "The chief of the Russian military's General Staff, visiting Cuba, says his country will help Havana modernize and train its military and that Moscow warships will visit Cuba soon.... The visit by Gen. Nikolai Y. Makarov as well as the head of Russian military intelligence and other high-ranking officers has sparked broad speculation...." See Yuri Bezmenov on demoralization

Obama's regulatory chief pushes new 'bill of rights: "A government that is constitutionally required to offer each citizen a 'useful' job....'This is not a description of Cuba, communist China or the old USSR. It's the vision of the future of the U.S, as mandated by a radical new 'bill of rights' drawn up and pushed by President Obama's newly confirmed regulatory czar, Cass Sunstein. ...in April 2005, Sunstein opened up a conference at Yale Law School entitled 'The Constitich sought to change the nature and interpretation of the Constitution by that year." See Congressional list of Communist Goals

The Blogger Who Nailed Van Jones: "[Former Weather Underground terrorist leader Mark Rudd] declared: '...you have to be able to look like you're doing one thing but do another. That's why all these conservative appointments are important: the strategy is feint to the right, move left. Any other strategy invites sure defeat.' ... 'Look to the second level appointments. There's a whole govt. in waiting.... They're mostly progressives....

     "Loudon explains how relatively easy it was to ascertain the basic facts about Jones: 'It didn't take more than a few keystrokes to realize that STORM was very influential in the San Francisco Bay Area and had ties to both the Cuban and South African Communist Parties. Jones' group -- and particularly Jones himself --had ties to two former Weather Underground supporters... and the Bay Area branch of the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism. Jones was the keynote speaker at a CCDS fundraiser....

     "'Obama's old friend Bill Ayers was also involved, as were leaders of CCDS, including Angela Davis, who works with several Bay Area STORM alumni, leaders of the Communist Party USA, Democratic Socialists of America and several Institute for Policy Studies trustees and personnel.... Obama's socialist backing goes back at least to 1996, when he received the endorsement of the Chicago branch of the DSA. ...

     '"The Obama administration boasted of its extreme vetting procedures, so I find it unlikely that if a blogger from New Zealand could identify Jones as a communist militant that the White House didn't know.'...

     "'Jones and Obama have worked with the same people all the way.'... 'Twenty-two years ago Barack Obama was a Chicago Alinskyite 'community organizer.' After hooking up with the Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism, Democratic Socialists of America, former '60s Maoists, Weather Underground supporters and Demos, he managed to land a job in the White House." See Current Communist Goals

Revolutionary?  Think you've seen the last of Van Jones? Think again... "Progressive' says his voice will be bigger than ever ... Don Hazen, executive director of the Independent Media Institute, a 'progressive' alternative media outlet heavily funded by the likes of Teresa Heinz Kerry's Tides Foundation and the Carnegie Corporation, says Jones' talents were actually wasted in the position of 'green jobs czar' Barack Obama gave him. He calls Jones 'arguably the most effective communicator in Democratic and progressive politics...'.

      "Hazen calls departing from the White House a 'liberation' for Jones. ...it's better for the 'progressive' movement because Jones is the leader it needs on the outside. Why? - Now a he's household name. 'Although he has been wildly popular in progressive circles, and a headliner at progressive conferences.... Jones was still a relative unknown for the population at large. Now he has a national stage."

China alarmed by US money printing: "The US Federal Reserve's policy of printing money to buy Treasury debt threatens to set off a serious decline of the dollar and compel China to redesign its foreign reserve policy, according to a top member of the Communist hierarchy."

Obama's Civilian Troops Were Trained by Ayers: "The blitzkrieg of changes that Obama has implemented - the nationalization of auto companies and banks, the demonization of the bourgeois (auto executives, physicians in private practice, insurance executives), the arm-twisting behind closed doors - are of the kind we'd expect of Hugo Chavez, pal of Obama's pal, Bill Ayers." See Glossary of Marxist Terms

Van Jones: 'Resist' against police Anti-cop mission drawn up by Black Panther group: "Van Jones, President Obama's controversial environmental adviser, signed a petition calling for nationwide 'resistance' against police, accusing them of using the 9/11 attacks to carry out policies of torture. The petition was organized by the October 22nd Coalition, an anti-police organization whose mission statement was drawn up by leaders of the radical Black Panther Collective for Social Progress."

Giving China help with cyber warfare: "The Obama administration is considering easing U.S. export controls to China even though the director for national intelligence is warning about Chinese cyber warfare threats to U.S. military information systems.

Obama 'czar' on 9/11: Blame 'U.S. imperialism'! "Van Jones, special adviser for green jobs, enterprise and innovation to the White House Council on Environmental Quality, is an admitted black nationalist and radical communist. Jones was the leader and founder of a radical group, the communist revolutionary organization Standing Together to Organize a Revolutionary Movement, or STORM. ....Glenn Beck drew attention to a section of STORM's manual that describes Jones' organization as having a 'commitment to the fundamental ideas of Marxism-Leninism.'

Europe looking at winter without heat: "Russia and its neighbor Ukraine are on the verge of another natural gas war, and this time it's prompting European countries to rush to fill gas storage facilities, but they already may be too late to avoid fuel shortages this coming winter. The looming crisis stems from Ukraine's continuing inability to pay its bills to Russia in a timely fashion. ... Now, it risks a shutdown of supply, threatening much of Europe, which obtains its supply through Ukraine. ... Some 25 percent of all of Europe's natural gas comes from Russia, of which 80 percent flows through Ukraine." See From Marx to Lenin, Gramsci & Alinsky

U.S.-Russia Nuclear Agreement Expected: "Senior U.S. official says Obama and Medvedev are prepared to sign an agreement lowering both the number of nuclear warheads and delivery vehicles." [How can Obama trust Communist Medvedev? Russia only speaks what fit's their goals! ]

None Dare Call It Marxism: "Liberals, even those of the Marxist variety, take umbrage when you point out their ideological kinship with Marxism. I suppose this dates back to the days when being a communist was tantamount to being an enemy of the United States, in that there was a global communist movement intent on... world domination.

    "...socialism doesn't make goods and services more affordable, but less so. As Dr. Sowell explains: 'The hope for profits and the threat of losses is what forces a business owner in a capitalist economy to produce at the lowest cost and sell what the customers are most willing to pay for. ... Under socialism (there is) far less incentive to be as efficient....'  Indeed, writes Sowell, most of the great fortunes in American history were amassed when entrepreneurs were able to reduce costs and charge lower prices and to increase their volume sales to mass markets....

     "Both [Obama's] father, Barack Obama Sr., and his mentor, Frank Marshall Davis, were communists. His church of choice was one of black liberation theology, whose Marxist roots are inarguable. He associated with far leftists on the 'organizing' streets of Chicago, including Bill Ayers and Bernardine Dohrn.

     "...what have Obama's words and actions revealed about his attitudes toward labor, capital, profits and government control of business and industry? Well, he said that he would raise capital gains tax rates, even if it reduced revenues, as a matter of fairness. It's only fair to make everyone poorer if you believe profits are inherently evil.... He redistributed taxpayer money from those who have paid their mortgages to those who have not.... He is desperately trying to spread the misery and impoverish businesses and individuals through his cap and tax plan, which no proponent of economic growth and prosperity would consider supporting. ....he is trying to nationalize medicine... on the flawed Marxist theory that he can reduce costs overall, when the reason health care costs have already skyrocketed is that market forces have been suppressed in the industry."

U.N. Red and U.S. 'Progressives" Plan Socialist World Government: "While meaningless United Nations hand-wringing over the North Korean nuclear weapons program garners the headlines, the world body is moving ahead with a global conference to lay the groundwork for world government financed by global taxes. The communist head of the U.N. General Assembly [D’Escoto] is leading the effort, but he is getting crucial support from 'progressive' economists who advise the Obama Administration and the Democratic Party.... D’Escoto is the former foreign minister of Communist Sandinista Nicaragua.... who advocates Marxist-oriented liberation theology and won the Lenin Peace Prize from the old Soviet Union.

       "...the official U.N. list of 'experts' behind the plan include an American economist, Joseph E. Stiglitz, a Nobel Prize-winning professor from Columbia University who supported and contributed to Obama’s presidential campaign and advises Congressional Democrats on economic policy.... Stiglitz was quoted... as saying that the United Nations, which is notorious for corruption, had to intervene in the financial crisis because it was 'the one institution that was inclusive and had political legitimacy.'"

      "Leading human rights activist and Nobel Peace Prize-nominee Harry Wu... said the United States cannot learn anything from the Communist Chinese educational system....

China orders tightened Internet controls: "The rules ban online videos that harm national stability, 'instigate hatred between ethnic groups' or 'maliciously disparage' the nation's police or armed forces, a notice on the government's main website said.... Chinese authorities have a history of blocking websites they deem politically unacceptable or offensive, and their censoring of the Internet has created a so-called 'Great Firewall of China.'"

China's hi-tech 'death van' where criminals are executed and then their organs are sold on black market: "China executed 1,715 people last year, so one more death would hardly be remarkable.... In chilling echoes of the 'gas-wagon' project pioneered by the Nazis to slaughter criminals, the mentally ill and Jews, this former member of the China People's Party will be handcuffed to a so-called 'humane' bed and executed inside a gleaming new, hi-tech, mobile 'death van.' After trials of the mobile execution service were launched quietly three years ago - then hushed up... before the Olympics last summer - these vehicles are now being deployed across China.... The number of executions is expected to rise to a staggering 10,000 people this year (not an impossible figure given that at least 68 crimes - including tax evasion and fraud - are punishable by death in China)....

     "The Nazis used adapted vans as mobile gas chambers from 1940 until the end of World War II.... Now, six decades later... China insists these death vans are 'progress'.... And they mean that prisoners can be executed locally, closer to communities where they broke the law. 'This deters others from committing crime....

     "China has traditionally always taken a ruthless, unemotional view of crime and punishment. Before injections and bullets, the most chilling sentence was... death by a thousand cuts.... The condemned man was strapped to a table and then, in what was also known as 'slow slicing', his eyes were gouged out...Using a sharp knife, the executioner sliced at the condemned's body - chopping off the ears, fingers, nose and toes....

     "According to undercover investigations by human rights' groups, the police, judiciary and doctors are all involved in making millions from China's huge trade in human body parts.... After checking that the victim is dead, the medical team first remove the eyes. Then, wearing surgical gowns and masks, they remove the kidney, liver, pancreas and lungs.... The organs are dispatched in ice boxes to hospitals in the sprawling cities of Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou, which have developed another specialist trade: selling the harvested organs.

      "...these organs are transplanted into the ailing bodies of the wealthy... Chinese hospitals perform up to 20,000 organ transplants each year." See Depravity

 

Obama, Medvedev to reset ties with arms pact: "Russia and the United States will pursue a new deal to cut nuclear warheads, presidents Dmitry Medvedev and Barack Obama said on Wednesday.... Obama said he and Medvedev had begun 'constructive dialogue' on issues from nuclear proliferation to counter-terrorism to economic stability. The two leaders, both in their 40s, were meeting for the first time in London on the eve of a G20 summit to discuss the global economic crisis."    But how can you believe either of them?

Why Doesn't Communism Have as Bad a Name as Nazism?  "Why is it that when people want to describe particularly evil individuals or regimes, they use the terms 'Nazi' or 'Fascist' but almost never 'Communist?' Given the amount the human suffering Communists have caused - 70 million killed in China, 20-30 million in the former Soviet Union.... why is 'Communist' so much less a term of revulsion...?...

    [1] Communists murdered their own people; the Nazis murdered others.... - Communism is based on lovely sounding theories; Nazism is based on heinous sounding theories.... - Germans have thoroughly exposed the evils of Nazism.... - Russians have not.... -Communism won, Nazism lost. And the winners write history."

    Another key reason is explained in Orwell's Original Introduction to Animal Farm. They two were similar in many ways -- including mandatory youth service.

China’s Military Capabilities Continue to Grow: "The Chinese still look at transparency as 'a transaction to be negotiated.' U.S. officials would like the Chinese to see transparency as a responsibility.... Chinese military capabilities have increased tremendously.... Army officials have invested in the acquisition of advanced foreign weapons, and they have fueled hothouse growth in domestic defense industries. The Chinese military also has poured money into research and development. On top of this, there is a far-reaching organizational and doctrinal reform of the People’s Liberation Army.

     "...its armed forces continue to develop and field disruptive military technologies, including those for anti-access/area-denial, as well as for nuclear, space and cyber warfare.... China has modernized its intercontinental ballistic missile arsenal.... They also are readying to launch a new class of ballistic missile submarines soon....
     "The Chinese also can project air power using new advanced aircraft, advanced long-range surface-to-air missile systems, air surveillance systems and ship-borne air defenses.... China’s space-based reconnaissance and positioning are leading to a precision-strike capability." See Signs of the times

Our Friends the Russians? "The president has offered to abandon America’s planned deployment of an anti-missile shield in Eastern Europe in exchange for Russia’s help against Iran’s nuclear-weapons program. This is an enormous diplomatic blunder that will encourage the very worst sort of conduct from Russia — and Iran.... If, as some believe, Iran already has enough fissile material for a nuclear bomb, Russia’s supply of technology and expertise will have been very much to blame. ....The Obama administration presumably knows all this. They know about Russia’s support for Iran’s nuclear program and its ambition to resume its domination of the countries of the former Soviet Empire. Yet instead of holding Russia accountable for abetting Iran’s pursuit of weapons of mass destruction, President Obama has invited Medvedev and Russian prime minister Vladimir Putin to name their price for some vague and unspecified 'assistance' in controlling a problem that they deliberately created....

The next four older items deal with national, international or UN security councils:

"The Russian American Nuclear Security Advisory Council was created in 1997 as an independent organization consisting of Russian and American experts with the purpose of developing new U.S.-Russian cooperative nuclear security initiatives and ensuring that existing programs become deeply rooted and are implemented expeditiously." 

      Does this remind you of the US-USSR Education Exchange Agreement signed by President Reagan and Gorbachev? See Bush, Gorbachev, Shultz and Soviet Education

History of the National Security Council: Two years after the birth of the United Nations with its Security Council, "The National Security Act of July 26, 1947, created the National Security Council... to coordinate foreign policy and defense policy.... The Clinton administration... expanded [the NSC membership] to include the Secretary of the Treasury, the U.S. Representative to the United Nations, the newly-created Assistant to the President for Economic Policy.... the President's Chief of Staff, and the President's National Security Adviser."

[From April 2003] Defector Reveals Russia’s Secret War Plans: "Col. Stanislav Lunev reveals the dark side of Russia’s soul -- and their continuing efforts to destroy America. The highest-ranking military spy ever to defect from Russia, Lunev warned the CIA and the FBI that Russia continues to actively plan for war with the U.S. and the West....

     "Col. Lunev told, and continues to tell, America’s CIA, the FBI, DIA and other national security agencies that Russia still posed a real threat and that Russian military and spy officials were still talking, planning and preparing for war with the United States and the West. He revealed they continue to organize, support and sponsor terrorist groups world-wide. He alleged Russia uses organized crime groups to pursue their dangerous agenda." See a earlier statement by Col. Lunev in Deliver us from evil and remember Psalm 27:1-3

Did you know? "The Russians are building tremendous new nuclear/biological and chemical weapons systems--all with the assistance of US technology transfers. They are deploying on average, 3 new Topol-M 6th generation ballistic missiles per month. We built our last MX over 10 years ago, and are disarming unilaterally. Further, the Russian are building huge underground nuclear bunkers and weapons production facilities in the Ural Mountains, clearly intended to function during a nuclear war. The US intelligence community (under both Republican and Democratic administrations) knows this and are actively covering for the Russians, so the American people won’t become alarmed.
      "Both Republican and Democratic administrations have been supplying the Chinese with high technology weapons systems for years, knowing that they, in turn, are supplying other enemies (Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, North Korea) as well. ...President Clinton directed our military to absorb a nuclear first strike rather than “launch on warning” (our only true deterrent to a first strike)...."
