Claiming Crimea as critical to Russia as the Temple
Mount is to Israel, Putin has made it clear there is no going back in his
determination to annex that Russia-speaking part of Ukraine into the new
Russia. Hence the months-long intensive
battle pitting NATO-backed Ukraine against Russia-backed Ukraine
separatists. So intense is the battle
that the downing of a Malaysian airline with 298 people on board (July 17) only
passed for a minor incident.
Many analysts believe that
the stakes are so high that the world might indeed be heading towards the Third
World War. Surprisingly, one European
country whose citizens seem to understand and support Putin’s moves happens to
be Germany, where as many as 40% of people polled on November 23 accepted his
planned annexation of Crimea. A
respected German newspaper the BILD is also claiming it has credible evidences
that Putin is making concrete plans to invade Europe.
For now, Europe and her
allies are prosecuting the on-going warfare, mainly on the economic front as they
attempt to bring Russia to its knees. Currently,
the Russian rouble has lost half its pre-crises value. But it’s not only the rouble that is going
down, global oil price and many other economic indices are affected – to the
extent of which no one seems to be able to predict. Eventually, it will be the puppet masters working
to actualize the New World Order that stand to be the ultimate beneficiary of
these developments.
