Back in the Summer of 1997, at the height of yet another crisis surrounding the seemingly never-ending saga of UN weapons inspection teams led by yours truly trying to gain access to sites considered by Iraq to be sensitive to their national security, I had surrounded the headquarters of the Iraqi intelligence service (the Mukhabarat), and was insisting that I be granted access to specific locations inside the headquarters deemed relevant to the Security Council’s mandate governing the disarmament of Iraq’s weapons of mass destruction programs. My chief interlocutor was General Amer al-Sa’adi, the former head of Iraq’s military industry and, at the time, a special advisor to Iraqi President Saddam Hussein.
Great analogy. In Europe, our tents have been completely ocuppied by the American camel which not only doesn't want to go away, but is doing more and more damage... If this continues, soon the whole world will be without tents and camels because we are all going to be annihilated by atom war and post-atom-war winter...
Thank you for this story, Scott. It was worth going back in history to Iraq to understand your understanding of France and other NATO forces and their unrelenting push to grind down Russia and Putin. It is an ugly power play we are witnessing and America and our neo-cons are certainly committed--committing huge amounts of our taxpayer dollars--to bring Russia to its knees. It seems to me that we must pray for Russia and Putin to stand strong and solid against us because if Russia goes down it will be a major blockade to the Globalist world takeover that will have been lost. Most certainly the camel's nose will only be the tip of the iceberg. :)
This is an excellent article, which at first in discussing Iraq, you will miss the KEY POINT.
This article is most revealing in that it is about Russia vs Ukraine.
This conflict is part of rhe deep state CIA operation as wars are good for money, control of citizens and seizing power through nefarious egregious and malfeasant methods.
Choose your adjectives.
Ukraine COULD have and SHOULD have stopped this war by uttering FIVE WORDS .
"UKRAINE WILL NOT JOIN NATO".
The USA deep state is sickening and killing our planet and millions.
The USA DEEP STATE run by CIA, DARPA, DOD black ops are all NEOCONS that love war.
Think back to the glorious days of GOOD and JFK when Russia was to put missiles in CUBA essentially on the doorstep of America.
SMART ETHICAL brave JFK told the RUSSIANS - "HELL NO THAT IS TOO CLISE TO USA SOIL" and will be cause for war.
Russia has been misaligned, and OSTRACIZED as an enemy as PROPOGANDA. Russian families are JUST LIKE all humans and families want the EXACT same for their children.
Here decades later we see and know that BARRACK OBAMA, who I call the largest TRAITOR ever to AMERICA , purposely placed the bought and paid for and most CORRUPT UKRAINIAN LEADER ever into power along with the planned psyc-op ever to create yet another highly corrupt USA deep state war , that continues to use propoganda that Russia is the enemy.
Meanwhile deep state USA using the CORRUPT BIDEN family and HUNTER BIDDN were building MUTIPLE BSL-4 biological labs to terrorize and attack RUSSIA.
NO WAY SAID RUSSIA - That is too close to the border of mother Russia and will mean war .
This was the exact same scenario that caused JFK to SHOUT - STOP that means WAR.
Meanwhile the NEWLY CORRUPTED CRIMINAL NATO LEADERS continue to move closer and surround RUSSIA.
RUSSIA has been patient with a most corrupt NEOCON LED USA for decades .
Some may not realize that NATO LOVES to keep inviting NEW MEMBERS into NATO. DID YOU ASK WHY?
NATO if it was SMART and advocated for PEACE would realize that a REALISTIC BUFFER zone allowing for NO WEAPONS of MASS destruction on any SUPER POWER'S BORDER as per the JFK ERA is indeed the right thing and advocates peace.
So ASK who benefits from increased NATO countries?
Ask why would anyone sensible INTENTIONALLY run a risk by a STUPID policy of NO BUFFER ZONE .
IF YIU GUESSED the largest black hat DEEP STATE USA companies like BOEING, RAYTHEON, LOCKHEED MARTIN etc . - then you are correct.
WAR MAKES MONEY AND NO LONGER BILLIONS BUT TRILLIONS.
WAR IS DRIVEN BY VERY EVIL PEOPLE RATHER than advocating PEACE .
THE PEOPLE MAKING ALL THE MONEY OFF ILLEGAL PROPOGANDA LED WARS like both BUSH Presidents, Clinton's, Obama, the Biden crime family and all those CAREER CORRUPT CRIMINAL lifetime politicians enablers that went along with this such as the Pelosi criminal family are rewarded and become sick elitist nihilistic psychopaths.
They never DIE or go through the HELL of wars.
It's the veterans that shed blood because they were both brainwashed and trying to stand up for the greater good. It is the families and children of vetetans that are lost on BOTH SIDES of any war .
When will humanity to wake up and SAY STOP ALL WARS. NO ONE GETS MONEY TO GO TO WAR.
WAR IS EVIL . WAR IS BAD
WAR TAKES THE GRRATEST TOLL ON VEYETANS .
LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE WAR THROUGHOUT HISTORY WAS PLANNED AND PROFITED BY THE MOST EVIL PEOPLE ON EARTH and yes, that includes the super rich elites thugs, including the unelected at NGO's WEF, WHO and UN, that use war as a weapon of distraction and propogands to make themselves RICH.
YES it is time to declare war . We as humanity MUST DECLARE WAR on our criminal leaders whom advocate for war.
They are the TRUE ENEMY.
LOOK TO DEEP STATE USA BLACK HAT OPERATIVES.
Surrounding Russia and inviting countries into NATO that encroach on the border of Super Powers was never logical, it was for money (and lots of it) by very sick people.
Back any RAT or any living creature into a cornet and it will FIGHT FOR ITS LIFE .
RUSSIA and Putin have been extremely patient with the dark USA agenda for decades.
Ostracizing Russia or China, and trying to destroy them economically is the STUPIDEST most evil propoganda ever.
The people that PROFIT and advocate war ARE ALWAYS EVIL .
It's 2024 and time to advocate peace.
Failure to do so may soon put you at rhe receiving end of a weapon of mass destruction.
By the way, far superior to NUKES are the newest LAB CREATED BIOLOGICAL WEAPONS . They leave all the valuable resources behind after a clean up .
And that's a story for another day.
A vetetan who watched too many die .

Unfortunately the camels nose got into the tent back in the 90’s when Clinton began pushing NATO eastward. Unfortunately, at the same time, there began a precipitous decline in the caliber of true statesmen in the west, the result is staring us in the face.
I commend the restraint exercised on the use of small tactical nuclear weapons due to potential nuclear escalation. I would not be surprised if at some point, enough is enough, and continuing loss, though less, and escalating provocation prompt their use to then demand surrender or suffer further imminent mass destruction. Then WHAT WILL HAPPEN NEXT?
Thanks for this article, It is amazing how effortlessly you connected a story of your experience from the distant past to the current situation in Ukraine with frightening relevance and possible consequences. I hope that relevant people in Russia will read this article and come to the same conclusion as you indicated. I am flabbergasted by the fact that the West considers Russians utterly stupid and unable to see through intellectually retarded plans and intentions. What scares me the most is the fact that such arrogant primitives do not see where is the red line and believe in their superiority. This situation can easily escalate to the worst-case scenario - full-scale nuclear war with end of the human existence on this planet. All the best Scott and my best wishes to you all from Slovenia.
Yankee Go home! There are enough things need doing at home to last several generations. Millions killed since 9/11 according to a US ivy League school. A million children from diarrhea alone. Think that's an exaduration? Check out Margaret Albright, live on TV stating that 500,000 dead Iraqi children from US sanctions was "worth it". No doubt it would have been a different answer if the children were Jewish.
"The camel will be fully ensconced inside the Ukrainian tent."
Not the "Ukrainian tent", rather it is the Russian tent!
The American Camel has delusionally missed that it is as raddled as its Marionette leader. Too many years and instances of moral cowardice; like Colin Powell's WMD, have weakened the fibre of the military. And now they face real steel?? When leaders replace integrity with justification, the troops follow nothing!
Time all governments kept their nose out of other nations business
Time farmers deal with farmers
Time to assume back our nation hood

That is why the camel, must return home, before it all becomes desert.
Keep up the great work, God bless and protect.

I do agree with Moscow's stance on the impossibility to allow French troops of any other NATO troops to be on the ground in Ukraine.
General Amer al-Sa'adi was right.
Yankee Go home! There are enough things need doing at home to last several generations. Millions killed since 9/11 according to a US ivy League school. A million children from diarrhea alone.

That's what I'm a feared of. Russia isn't going to back down. It becomes a question of who shoots the nuke first.....
good article
