Dear CCI Friends,
Observing the governments of Europe – Germany, France and the United Kingdom in particular – as they clamor for war with Russia must leave a sane person speechless. Germany?? After two horrifically devastating World Wars launched by Germany in the 20th century, the collective West now seems content to quietly sit by while Chancellor Joachim-Frederich Martin Joseph Merz, and others, howls for a third. Can this truly be happening?
Former CIA Director of Russia Analysis George Beebe explores this phenomenon with remarkable aplomb – no emotional fear mongering here. What should be our reaction?
“Diplomacy Is Anathema to Europeans…
…an escalatory spiral that can get out of hand.”

Investigative journalist Kit Klarenberg digs deep into the history of Britain’s deceitful relationship with the Russians and what it means in today’s dangerous atmosphere.
Perfidious Albion
“Both Major and his successor Tony Blair explicitly pledged in person to Kremlin officials that NATO wouldn’t move up to Russia’s borders.”

We are dumbfounded at the behaviour of supposed allies. How about you?
