Is Putin plotting an attack on Sweden?

Da Swedish Minister of Defense Peter Hultqvist says that an attack on Sweden can not be ruled out. And so he has deployed tanks and troops to the Swedish island Gotland in the Baltic Sea.

The tanks and the troops are now patroling da streets of Gotland. So are we safe from a Russian invasion now?

I remember in 2002/2003 when Tony Bliar of Britain ordered out tanks on the streets in London and on Heathrow Airport, like he thought that an invasion of London was imminent. But we all know that was just a trick. Saddam wasn’t about to invade London. The US and UK was about to invade Iraq.

Really though. I think it's just Nato and our leaders who wants to convey a message that "Russia is bad". They want to tell the people that "Russia is the enemy" and that "You should be afraid of Russia" and "Support the US/Nato". The same message that Tony Bliar sent to the Brits when he ordered out tanks on the streets of London: "Iraq may attack us in any moment", "We are the victims", "Iraq is the enemy", "Support our war on Iraq".

The US is now saying that ”Reverting to a familiar “playbook,” Russia is plotting a pretext to invade Ukraine”.

Familiar to the US maybe. Remember the false pretext of wmd that was used to attack Iraq?

Maybe it is the US and Ukraine who are plotting something, and everything we hear on the news about ”Russia is planning an attack” is just smokescreens and propaganda.

Anyhoo. You can’t trust the media to tell you the truth. Especially not in conflicts.

Kind of amusing that a left wing government in one of the most left wing countries in the world is taking this posture.

The international left has truly lost its shit over Russia.

It's election year, we have record energy prices, they have gotten a lot of shit for how they handled the pandemic. They are on an all front assault to look competent.

I disagree that Sweden is Left or one of the most left wing countries in the world. Sweden has never been as little to the left as it is now.

Maybe it is the US who needs and is plotting a war in Europe in order to stop the Nord Stream 2, to stop Europe from buying gas from a Russian company and instead buy from American companies so that American oligarchs can get rich.

Earlier attempts by the US to stop Nord Stream 2 failed. So now they have to initiate Plan B. A military conflict.

All kinds of 5d chess going on.

I thought the false flag one very elegant.

It is de-escalatory. It is to contain ultranationalist groups from thinking they can trigger Nato involvement.

To American Republicans, educating your population and preventing people from becoming homeless and starving to death makes you communist.

We're not trading fire with Russia to sell some LNG. They are not Iraq.

Compare Republican cities to democratic....nuff said.

The ghettos are democratic cities and many have been for over 40 years.

That said Americans want no part of this in general.

First of all wtf is a Republican city?

And the reason that Republican controlled areas have fewer homeless is because they drive them the fuck out of town. Sometimes even forcing them to board a bus to someplace else.

Murder,

” We're not trading fire with Russia to sell some LNG. They are not Iraq.”


You don’t have to. It is Ukraine who will have to fight Russia. The U.S goal is that the pressure on Germany will be so high that they no longer can buy gas from Russia and will buy from the US instead.

The US is just hoping that Russia will fall into the trap and attack Ukraine. Perhaps some Ukrainan will be told to attack Russia in a way that Russia will respond. The US will then blame Russia and say that it was a false flag attack, that Russia attacked itself in order to have a reason to attack Ukraine. But in reality, it was Ukraine on the orders of the US who attacked Russia.

Blinken was/is in Ukraine today. An attack on Russia from Ukraine may happen tomorrow already.

That fight wouldn't last long. Ukraine is completely overmatched and NATO countries aren't even supplying them with quality weapons to fight with. It would be a rout.
