The Strategic Threat From Net-zero Emissions

Introduction
The retreat of the United States and her allies before the Chinese-backed Taliban in Afghanistan and the failure of the West’s feeble attempts at diplomacy in the face of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine share a sinister aetiology that has attracted remarkably little attention. A relentless, targeted campaign of desinformatsiya – systematic reputational destruction or “unpersoning” by Communist front groups posing as environmental campaign entities but in reality fostered, funded and too often founded by Moscow and Beijing – has all but silenced thousands of sceptical climate researchers who had formerly been able to debate the climate question in the sunlight of the agora, and has deterred tens of thousands more who would have spoken out in their support but dare not do so.
Goebbels’ Unpersoning
Goebbels had developed unpersoning as an art-form in the decades before the Nazis took power in Germany. Anyone who had proven successful in denouncing Corporal Hitler was compelled to endure repeated reputational assaults, until very nearly all who valued their reputations fell silent, allowing Hitler to assume power in 1933. In 1945, when the Allies hung back from Berlin to allow Marshal Zhukov the honour of taking the capital of the Reich in recognition of his gallant defence of Stalingrad, it was the then MGB that we permitted to march into the Mitte district, the seat of government at the heart of Berlin. In Mauerstrasse, they captured the Reichspropagandaamt, then the largest office building in Europe.
Goebbels, having swallowed his own propaganda about the Tausendjahriges Reich, had ordered his officials not to destroy the Propaganda Ministry’s records. The Royal Air Force had bombed one wing of the giant office block, but nearly all of the records were intact. They fell into the hands of the MGB. Within a month, the MGB – later the KGB – had come to understand the efficacy of unpersoning. At once, they founded the Desinformatsiya directorate. Its chief task was to unperson everyone, anywhere in the world, who had publicly opposed Soviet Communism.
The Kremlin appointed General Ion Mihai Pacepa, then the head of the Securitate, the secret police in Ceausescu’s Romania, as the first head of the directorate. He was to hold that post for a third of a century. His first target was Pope Pius XII. The Directorate commissioned a German Communist playwright to draft a play hostile to the Pope, and infiltrated stories about his alleged Nazi-loving, Jew-hating sympathies into fellow-travelling news media throughout the West.
The facts were that in 1937, the Pope, as secretary of state to his predecessor Pius XI, had published Mit Brennender Sorge (“With profound concern”), the first Papal encyclical in a language other than Latin since the Middle Ages, roundly condemning Nazism while all the chancelleries of Europe, applying their habitual policy of the pre-emptive cringe, were cravenly appeasing the Corporal. So successful was the Vatican’s pipeline to get Jews out of the Gestapo’s clutches in Italy that, as soon as it was safe to do so after the War, the Chief Rabbi of Rome and his deputy were both baptised as Catholics. The Chief Rabbi particularly requested that the Pope should stand sponsor for him.
At the Yad Vashem memorial to the Holocaust in Israel, the largest plaque on the memorial wall for those who had stood by the Jews is devoted to Pope Pius XII. Notwithstanding such mere facts, after some years the KGB had succeeded in tarnishing the reputation of the saintly Pope. It was only recently, when the Holy See opened the archives to scholars, that the truth became widely known.
Communists Use Upersoning to Destabilise Britain
Unpersoning has become a staple technique among Communist front groups throughout the West. For instance, Saul Alinsky devoted two of his dozen ‘Rules for Radicals’ to advocacy for it. It was and is of particular efficacy in silencing almost all those who would otherwise have dared to question the official narrative on global warming, whose origin in the Desinformatsiya directorate is nothing like as widely appreciated as it should be.
On 28 July 1979, less than three months after Margaret Thatcher had first taken office as the British Prime Minister, the Communist leader of the National Union of Mineworkers, Arthur Scargill, quietly set sail on a Polish freighter bound for St. Petersburg (then Leningrad). There, like Lenin before him, he took a sealed train to Moscow, where he was met and transferred to the Patrice Lumbumba University, where the world’s terrorist rank and file were trained. After just three weeks there, Scargill’s handlers realised that he was a cut above the rest and transferred him to the Lenin Institute, where terrorist leaders such as Yassir Arafat were trained. He spent five months at the Institute, returning on an Aeroflot flight to Paris, where he transferred to a British Airways flight bound for London.
Scargill’s handlers had trained him to emulate the success of the miners’ strike a decade earlier, which had brought down the Conservative government of Edward Heath and replaced it with a Kremlin-friendly Labour administration. He was given funding of at least $30 million that our quants in the intelligence community could trace – a substantial sum in those days – paid via the then Czechoslovak Embassy in London, which the KGB had vainly hoped we were not monitoring.
However, the year before Scargill set sail for St Petersburg, Pacepa had quietly defected to the West. He was perhaps our most important defector in the Cold War. He had warned us the second miners’ strike was coming. No less importantly, he had told us why. Despite the tight control of information in Soviet Russia, the impoverished, suffering citizenry had come to learn that life in the West was far better and freer. Whenever any of us visited the Communist bloc in those days, flashing our orange British Military Mission cards at Checkpoint Charlie, we would wear four or five pairs of jeans, which, like so much else, were unobtainable behind the Iron Curtain. We would give the much-prized jeans to our contacts there. The KGB had reasoned that the West’s economies must be brought down to the wretched Soviet level, and their citizens’ freedoms taken away, so that Soviet citizens would no longer have reason to clamour for the unimaginably wonderful Western lifestyle, jeans and all. The KGB’s weapon of choice at that time was its control over certain Western union leaders.
Since energy is the lifeblood of any modern economy, the KGB decided that it would see whether it could bring down the elected government of Margaret Thatcher, the feared “Iron Lady,” by fomenting a miners’ strike. However, thanks to Ion Mihai, we were more fully prepared than the Kamitet had realised. Margaret, though still in opposition in 1978, acted on his warnings transmitted to her via the ever-helpful American cousins in the CIA. The special relationship is a wonderful thing. Margaret had already appointed the late Nicholas Ridley, soon to be a member of her Cabinet, to head a committee to devise stratagems for defeating the Kremlin-funded strike whenever it came.
Defeating the Communist Strike
Back Up Power
Ridley, apparently an amiable, tweed-clad, hearty-drinking squire from the shires, had – and carefully concealed – the sharpest mind on Margaret’s team. First, he did a deal with the private, non-union port of Felixstowe in rural East Anglia, which quietly installed coal-bunkering facilities. Next, he approached the Poles via Solidarność, Lech Walesa’s anti-Soviet trades union, for which the British Catholic newspaper The Universe had raised some of the earliest funds. He obtained the Poles’ agreement, under the very nose of the Soviet stooge General Jaruzelski, to supply as much coal as we might need in the event of a miners’ strike, for delivery to Felixstowe.
He also persuaded the then-nationalised Central Electricity Generating Board that it should build a load-equalisation station – a substantial forebay lake dug out of a mountain-top with a reversible turbine beneath it in the roots of the mountain and a channel to a natural lake at the foot. The previous miners’ strike had shown that at peak hours it was necessary to bring dozens of ancient, inefficient coal-gobbling power stations online. The daily peak was at 7.45 pm, during the commercial break halfway through the daily episode of Coronation Street, then Britain’s most popular soap opera, when every housewife scuttled out to the kitchen to put the kettle on and electricity demand surged.
At night, when electricity from the grid was plentiful and cheap, Ridley’s proposed turbine would be run in reverse to pump water from the lake at the foot of the mountain to the forebay lake at the top. During Coronation Street, grid managers would be able to flip a switch and the water in the forebay would instantly drop straight through the turbine, providing several minutes’ vital boost to the grid to power Nan’s kettle, so that the ancient, coal-guzzling spinning-reserve power stations were no longer needed.
Three questions arose: where to put the load-equalisation station, how to defend it against attack by Communist saboteurs, and how to conceal its existence from Russia’s many spies throughout the governing elite and saboteurs in the unions. Ridley’s solutions were characteristically masterly. First, he decided to put it in Wales, which was somewhat less Communist than Scotland, the only other region with the right terrain. The deciding factor was that the station, to be built at Dinorwig, near Caernarfon, was little more than 100 miles from the SAS lines at Hereford. When the miners’ strike began in 1984, the boys of the special forces were kept on constant exercise in the hills around the new power station. No one messes with the SAS, and no one got near it.
The third question – how to conceal Dinorwig from the Kremlin’s spies – was pure genius. Ridley advertised it. He commissioned a commercial showing the load-equalisation station being built at night, so that one could not quite see where it was. The ad, in the name of the grid authority, described how the station would work and ended with a sickening jingle: “We have the power to help you!” sung (if that is the word for it) to a particularly drippy theme. It worked a treat. It was not until weeks before the strike ended that the KGB found out it had been hoodwinked by Ridley’s skilful maskirovka. By then it was far too late. Dinorwig came onstream early in 1985. The strike collapsed in early March that year.
Informing Workers
A few weeks before the strike began, Ridley’s committee had dispatched a tall, lean, good-looking lad ostensibly from Margaret’s six-man policy unit at 10 Downing Street on his loud, red, fast Ducati Mike Hailwood Replica motorcycle to a country house somewhere in England. There the lad recruited the late David Hart, a property magnate and close friend of Margaret’s, to visit every pit throughout Britain and talk to the ordinary mineworkers directly. David drove 29,000 miles in his new Mercedes that year, explaining to every mineworker that Scargill had been trained in Moscow and was being funded by the Kremlin.
The lad had been down the pits both in Wales and in Yorkshire. Indeed, he had been put alongside Scargill some years before, at the motor-mouth Communist’s favourite watering-hole, a 15th-century pub in the centre of Leeds, a Yorkshire city two hours north of London. Scargill was clubbable, but his politics stank. The lad knew that although the miners’ leaders were Communist, the rank and file were not. They were deeply loyal to their country first and foremost and would fiercely resent Scargill’s Moscow connection. In general elections, many of them secretly voted for Margaret.
To ensure that the démarche that would – and did – break the strike was unseen by the many spying eyes in the Civil Service, the lad arranged for David Hart to report daily direct to the Prime Minister and to no one else. David’s first-class memoranda, now publicly available, were a model of punchy concision and were a great comfort to Margaret, for it is lonely at the top. To keep the operation secret, David established a war room around the walnut grand piano in a grand suite at Claridges, the last place where the KGB would ever think of looking. The lad would amuse the team from time to time by playing the first movement of Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata and suchlike soothing pieces.
Eventually, Peter Walker, the not entirely trustworthy Trade and Industry Minister, nominally but not actually in charge of the Government’s response to the strike, discovered the existence of David’s war room at the swank London hotel and angrily telephoned him to say: “You can’t run this strike from Claridges!”
David, unperturbed, said: “Of course not, Minister. You’ll be wanting to speak to the Chairman of the National Coal Board. Here he is now.” And he handed the phone to Sir Ian MacGregor. Weeks later, the strikers were defeated, with the help of an advertising campaign planned and paid for by David. At a personal cost of millions, he took out daily full-page spreads in the national newspapers, saying to Scargill, “Come on, Arthur, gizzaballot!” on ending the strike. Sure enough, the miners’ delegates voted to return to work. David, like all who work for their country in the shadows, never received any thanks or recognition for his unpaid, unsung and uncommonly effective service to his countrymen, on whose behalf I honour his memory here.
The shock in Moscow was palpable. The strike had been defeated by a method the KGB had simply not foreseen, and by a team of whose existence it had been entirely unaware. We had appealed directly to the loyal mineworkers of Britain, over the disloyal, Communist heads of their union. At the lad’s farewell party at 10 Downing Street after the strike had been brought safely to an end, three leaders of the National Working Miners’ Committee founded by David were present – perhaps the first mineworkers ever to set a friendly foot in Downing Street under a Conservative administration.
Communists Take Control of Environmental Movement
Now that the Kamitet knew we knew how to thwart such strikes, which had until then been frequent and damaging, it realised it could no longer depend on the Communist union leaderships it had spent decades and tens of millions corrupting. Smarting from its defeat, it was most anxious to find another way to bring the Western economies down and to undermine our enviable prosperity and our precious freedoms, for which the people of Soviet Russia longed.
The Kamitet had already had some success in infiltrating far-left political lobby groups. In particular, we learned from the Vatican’s intelligence service – often the best-informed in the world, in those days – that the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament was Soviet-controlled, under the influence of a powerfully placed but profoundly misguided Catholic monsignor who shall remain deservedly nameless.
Building on that success, the Kamitet decided to infiltrate the environmental movement, beginning with Greenpeace. The problem was that the leaders of the movement, such as Patrick Moore, were and are genuine environmentalists, not Communists. Therefore, Greenpeace was infiltrated by thousands of new Communist members. In short order, Patrick and his fellow true environmentalists were pushed out and replaced with Communists. As a rule of thumb, one would not be far wrong in assuming that these days every environmental pressure-group with an innocent-sounding name is, first and foremost, a Communist-led front group, though few of the members – like the miners – are themselves Communist.
By the time the global warming scare was launched into the public square by elaborately-publicised testimony in 1988 before Congress on the part of a many-times-arrested far-left agitator at NASA, the KGB had seen the potential. The kamitet realised that, if the climate-change narrative could be captured, it would be possible to induce Western ministers and opinion-formers fearful of being unpersoned to fall as culpably silent as the opponents of Nazism in the years leading to Hitler’s takeover in 1933. What was more, Pacepa told us, the KGB, by now firmly in control of the environmental movement, had seen the potential not merely to impoverish and even bankrupt the Western economies but also to inflict upon their peoples so many pettifogging environmental restrictions in the name of “Saving The Planet” that the freedoms we have long taken for granted would, in effect, be no more.
The growth of the internet greatly facilitated the unpersoning of climate sceptics. For instance, Wikipedia, founded by a pornography merchant, was swiftly captured, whereupon the biographies of climate sceptics were tampered with. A single fellow-traveller rewrote the biographies of more than 2,000 sceptics, including mine, to recast us as knaves, rogues, idiots or all three. The intelligence community tracked down the agent via his incautious membership of a rowing club in a tiny Cambridgeshire village. He was banned from interfering with Wikipedia entries. However, as the Communists tightened their grip on Wokipedia, driving out the pornographer’s co-founder in despair at its sullen, far-left prejudice, the agent was reinstated.
YouTube and FaceTwit began shadow-banning sceptics by preventing their internal search engines from returning entries related to or posted by anyone questioning the Party Line on climate. After the massive nationwide campaign of voter fraud organised by the Democrat National Committee in swing States had unexpectedly failed in the 2016 election (for in 2011 I had learned of it from the chief investigator working for Sheriff Arpaio of Maricopa County, Arizona, who had discovered it, and I had at once alerted the Republican National Committee), the technology giants doubled down on their censorship of non-Communists, especially climate sceptics.
Google held a staff meeting at its headquarters, at which its largely far-left leaders reassured its largely far-left personnel that no such election result would ever be permitted again. In 2020, it was not permitted at all.
Matters were little better on the other side of the Atlantic. Who would have imagined a third of a century ago, when the Berlin Wall was overthrown, that in Britain today a nominally “Conservative” government, under an undue alien influence that it would once have resisted, would be busy shuttering the last of the coal-fired power stations that produce electricity at half the cost of gas-fired power and a quarter of the cost of wind-farms and would ban gasoline-fired autos, ban fracking of the largest shale gas reserves in Europe, ban extraction of North Sea oil, ban fireplaces and gas-fired central-heating boilers, ban Edison’s incandescent lamps, and even ban the roast beef of old England? Who would have thought that, as a result of these lunatic encroachments and impositions on our freedoms, electric power in Britain, once among the world’s cheapest, would have become the costliest?
Silent Coup
Though the Soviet Union collapsed at about the same time as Margaret Thatcher lost office (on the question of Britain’s membership of the European Union, on which – as in much else – she turned out to have been right all along), in 2000 a silent coup orchestrated by Vladimir Putin unseated Boris Yeltsin. By 2004, Putin had installed some 6,000 of his former KGB colleagues in key governmental posts in Moscow and in all the regions of Russia. Communism was back. With good reason, the intelligence community describes Putin’s Russia as a DINO – a democracy in name only, an atavistic throwback to the lumbering, murderous, militaristic totalitarianism of old that we had hoped was extinct.
The Kremlin’s capture of the environmental movement was latterly and actively assisted by China, the chosen home of the late UN climate fanatic Maurice Strong (who called himself a “lifelong Socialist”). So successful has been the Communists’ theft and repurposing of the environmental movement, their capture of the climate-change issue and their unpersoning of all who dare to question the Party Line on that subject that by 2004, four years after his coup, Putin himself had become concerned that perhaps global warming was a real problem after all.
That year Putin asked Dr. Andrei Illarionov of the Russian Academy of Sciences to hold a climate-change conference with a difference in Moscow. The difference was that, instead of true-believing climate fanatics only, whose unfailing custom was and is to exclude rather than to debate those who disagree with the Party Line, sceptics were invited to participate as well. Putin was genuinely curious to know whether his kamitet’s own propaganda about global warming might, after all, correct.
Andrei looked around the world and decided that Britain’s governing class was the sappiest, most lackwit, most true-believing classe politique on the planet. He invited the government’s then “climate change ambassador,” the chemist Sir David King, to give the keynote address. However, when King arrived at Sheremetyevo airport, he noticed that several prominent sceptics were arriving as well. He tried to turn back and return to the UK. However, the FSB gently but firmly accompanied him to the Kremlin, and he was made to give his talk.
Halfway through, Dr. Roy Spencer, the sceptic who had won awards for designing, building and operating the microwave-sounding-unit satellites that provide the least inaccurate measure of global temperature (which currently shows no global warming for well over seven years), interrupted King in full flow to say, “Surely, Sir David, you can’t possibly believe that?”
Sir David, unfamiliar with the notion of debate, flounced out. The FSB made to intercept him a second time, but Andrei waved them away, replaced King at the microphone and said: “Sir David King has disgraced the name of science, disgraced the name of Britain and disgraced the name of King. But he has taught us one thing. Global warming caused by us was not, is not and will not be a problem.” That is what Andrei later told me he had reported to Putin.
From then on, the Desinformatsiya directorate, joined by its Chinese equivalent, doubled down on unpersoning anyone, anywhere in the West, who had proven successful in publicly opposing the Party Line on global warming. The unelected Kommissars of the European tyranny-by-clerk, easy prey for Communist infiltrators, saw to it that coal-fired power stations with decades of useful life in them were torn down and replaced with combined-cycle turbines powered by Siberian gas, whose unit carbon dioxide emissions per megawatt-hour generated are half those of coal but whose unit cost is twice that of coal.
As competition from coal inexorably diminished, the price of Siberian gas sold to Europe no less inexorably rose. The law of supply and demand is an iron law. It is not up for repeal. Even before the Chinese-virus pandemic, Europe was paying Putin four times the world price for its gas. Now it pays more like eight times the world price; and, on a day in December 2021 when Europe was under a blocking high and the wind did not blow, it rose to 200 times the world price. Putin, on the pretext of addressing an unspecified technical fault in the pipelines but in reality to serve notice on Europe that it was now utterly dependent upon him and him alone to keep the lights on as he prepared to invade Ukraine, had turned the gas off for a few hours. The price had duly and very profitably surged.
Putin has not only succeeded in crippling the Western economies with the global-warming nonsense: he now profiteers directly from our scientifically-illiterate politicians’ economically and strategically half-witted decision to interfere in the energy market by force and remove coal from the energy mix, reducing competition, hiking power prices and rendering Europe and – to a striking degree – the United States dependent upon a hostile foreign power for the preponderance of its energy supply, the lifeblood of its industries. Aluminium smelting, steelmaking, heavy manufacturing and many other energy-intensive enterprises have been driven out to Russia, India and China, which have all repudiated attempts by the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (“UNFCCC”) to shutter their economies as the West has so eagerly done under the Paris climate accords.
Communists Prepare for War and World Domination
Putin has made a fortune from Siberian gas overpriced as a direct and ineluctable consequence of the Western classe politique’s abject, poltroonish fear of being unpersoned. He has spent it wisely, steadily rebuilding the motherland’s armed forces. He now has five times as many men under arms per head of population and ten times as many in all, as the United Kingdom, which – under successive, ever-dimmer “Conservative” administrations that ought to have known better – has cut its own armed forces to almost nothing. Putin has 1.4 million men under arms. Only a fifth of them are deployed at the Ukrainian front. He has 15,000 tanks. Britain, laughably, has only 200.
China, like Russia, now profiteers directly by the West’s craven failure to act upon the ancient Roman saw Si vis pacem, para bellum – if you want peace, be ready for war. As invisibly as the Tsar of Some of the Russians and his KGB cronies have rebuilt the Soviet armed forces on the vast profits from Europe’s overpayments for Siberian gas, Xi Jinping, emperor of the Middle Kingdom, has built up Beijing’s armed forces to make them the largest and best-equipped on the planet. He is doing so out of the rapidly growing profits from the sale of lithium carbonate extracted from the vast mines of occupied Tibet by usefully inexpensive slave labour.
What is more, China has quietly been cornering the market in the extraction and supply of lithium carbonate worldwide. Every electric buggy churned out by Tesla and increasingly by other automakers worldwide must have lithium-ion batteries. All other metals are too heavy for the job. As it is, the extra weight of the batteries adds 30% to the mass of an auto and, therefore, 30% to its energy consumption. No sane government would for an instant interfere in the market to force real autos of the road and replace them with buggies that waste energy on that monstrous scale.
Beijing has supported, trained and equipped the Taliban for decades. Once the Democrat administration in Washington (which has long been far too close to Communism for comfort) had done what was expected of it and pulled out the troops, carefully leaving nearly $100 billion in military materiel behind to ensure that the enemies of the West in the region were equipped with nothing but the best, the Taliban rewarded China for its support by granting it effective control of the lithium mines in Afghanistan, by far the largest and most productive in the world.
China has also gained control of lithium mines in Africa via its Belt and Road debt-trap diplomacy scheme. It has bought a placeholder stake in the substantial deposits recently discovered in south-western Greenland (where, by a delicious irony, Communist “environmental” campaigners had succeeded in persuading their government that the lithium should not be extracted, prompting China to reduce its stake). China has a controlling 73% stake in the Cornish lithium mines in south-western England, whose Prime Minister, despite repeated attempts by the intelligence community, cannot be brought to understand the strategic importance of lithium.
China is currently doing a deal with the recently elected Communist president of Chile to secure control of the mines there too. As a result, almost 100% of global lithium production is already under Beijing’s control, and the market in lithium carbonate is denominated not in dollars but in the Chinese currency. As governments panicked by the fear of unpersoning rush to ban affordable, energy-efficient gasoline-powered autos, the price of lithium carbonate has risen sixfold this year alone. Buy some now and put it in the shed. It will be worth dozens of times the cost in a year or two.
If the British Prime Minister’s crazed plan to ban real autos in just eight years’ time were to come to pass, the UK alone would consume almost all of the world’s current supplies of lithium carbonate, as well as half the global annual output of copper and twice the global output of cobalt. Worse still, as the price of electrical power continues to rise as coal-fired stations are needlessly shut down, not only the capital cost but also the running cost of electric buggies will put personal transport – one of the greatest freedoms the West has given to the world – far beyond the reach of the ordinary motorist.
Net Zero Cannot Be Achieved
In the real world no longer inhabited by Western politicians, net-zero carbon dioxide emissions are not in practice achievable. As if the scarcity and soaring prices of rare-earth and other essential minerals as artificially increased demand driven by net-zero foolery rapidly outstrips supply were not bad enough, a net-zero electricity grid is simply unattainable. The reason is that once the installed capacity of unreliables (wind and sun) becomes equal to mean hourly demand, as it very nearly does in the US and in the UK, adding more unreliables cannot reduce total grid emissions.
In any event, the requirement to back up unreliables with spinning reserve power from gas-fired power stations wipes out any theoretically obtainable reduction in emissions. Analysis of published grid data in the US shows that, notwithstanding close to 10% of capacity contributed by unreliables, only 0.3% of total grid emissions is being abated. By the time emissions from construction and cabling are taken into account, that 0.3% becomes a net-zero cut in emissions. Forgive the pun.
In any event, net-zero emissions are unnecessary. Climatologists perpetrated a grave error of physics in 1984 when they borrowed a feedback method from control theory in engineering physics without understanding it. They forgot the Sun was shining. They added the large solar feedback response to, and miscounted it as part of, the actually minuscule feedback response to the small direct warming by greenhouse gases. Thus, they overstated CO2-driven warming fourfold. After correction, global warming will continue to be, as it has long been, small, slow, harmless and net-beneficial. Not a cent need or should be spent on attempts – futile in any event – to abate it.
Had it not been for the West’s capitulation to Communist propagandists paid by Russia and China to peddle the official global warming narrative and profiteering by the ineffable strategic immaturity, scientific illiteracy and economic innumeracy of our current generation of politicians, trembling in fear of being unpersoned, the West would never have given Putin the means to rebuild his forces. But it is we who elect the politicians. Irresponsibly, we chose a close-to-Communist administration led by a fumbling geriatric [Joe Biden] in the United States and an etiolated, clapped-out, effete, no-longer-Conservative administration led by a notorious and all-too-exploitable sexual incontinent in Britain [Boris Johnson].
Ion Mihai would be appalled. In his handwritten dedication to me on the dedication page of his book Desinformatsiya, he wrote: “Dear Viscount Monckton, Please receive my warm thanks for your tireless exposure of Communism/Progressivism’s economic stupidity and for your valuable help given to those who engaged in the war against Communism and Progressivism. With gratitude, Ion Mihai Pacepa.” Ion Mihai is now merry in Heaven. In 2021, that friend of freedom died and I attended his virtual memorial along with his formidable widow and also the former CIA director who had long been his handler. How sorely we miss him.
The gallant president of Ukraine and the army of brave citizens now fighting not only for their nation’s right to determine its own destiny but also for their very lives have us, the voters of the West, to thank for their existential predicament. After decades of imprudent self-disarmament aggravated by the global-warming stupidity by which we have long been funding the militaristic expansions both of Putin and of Xi, we are scarcely less at fault for the plight of Ukraine than is Vlad the Invader himself.

I think they may need to fight the muzzies for that position. The muzzies not only want to take over the West but the whole world.
Totally agree with you.
Interesting to know the identity of those behind this. ‘Not surprising really when you think about it. I must say that I and most of my acquaintances have never believed the global warming/climate change narratives. The whole thing has a “foreign” or even “Alien” smell about it. It is just foreign to my way of thinking, just like “The war on terror”, the “Covid pandemic”, the continued government support for illegal immigration, and all the propaganda around climate change. I took a lot of my information from the late Prof.’ Bob Carter, undoubtedly an expert and free thinker on the subject. Generally though, there seems to be this foreign, anti-human way of thinking behind much of today’s policies that makes me very suspicious of the source and the ideology behind them. It’s as if we humans are regarded as a burden to be depopulated or eliminated altogether. I even ask myself, “Have aliens already taken over the Earth?”. This article suggests it’s the communists, but it could be much worse.
Have you ever played with computer games where you were the leader of a country, running an economy, having soldiers, going into war or just defending your territory?
What we all do, when we have too much workers / pheasants but have enough resources, we kill the surplus. Takes time to control them, their work, for what if the majority not needed any longer?
Just imagine you are on of them, see it from their point of view, to control a huge population is bothersome, they don’t need it, if they lose control they can lose their wealth and even lives, why bother the difficulties if not necessary?
The alien card has expired, the demons are the new common enemy we should unite against and the way is to keep our life in a prison-like order with zero joy just to defeat them… Lenin would love this, from communism to demonism. 🙂
Like movies, these kinds of computer games are programmed by the people who want to control everything, to teach young people how to look at the world population as a numbers problem and to only allow for solutions within the game that reflect their own way of thinking. There other ways of dealing with an overburgeoning population (if it indeed is overburgeoning, which is debatable) besides just killing everyone. I’ll bet these computer games don’t allow for any “thinking outside the box”. Would be cool if some bright spark could invent one of these games which allows for literally the creation of any solution – but the programmer would need to have a mind free of limits to do it ….
I dont have much to add but to state my father born 1916, always told me
that the Communists would never stop wanting to control the world.
I have been awake to the Communist creep over my entire lifetime. I too worry that there is something else, much darker, forces we are not aware of. David Icke may be right and there are Reptilian demonic forces at play. Who knows. The human race may have advanced on its technology, but I havn’t noted any advance in its spiritual advancement. Infact,I have noted, we seem to have been dragged right back from a time in the late 1980’s when I truly thought all was going to be “alright in the end.” There was a time of optimism in human consciousness. We stopped killing wild animals for sport, we cared about animal welfare. We were tree hugging and discussing how to be realistic caretakers of the planet.(I don’t mean nett zero BS) There was definitely a rise in human evolution. Then it all came crashing around us, one psyop after another. One war after another. Some thing, somewhere said” I don’t think so.” I watched all hope disappear. As I try to explain myself towards the end of my life, I am not optimistic. But hold on to a little hope, that what my fathers and grandfathers generation fought for, was not in total vane.
I’m in your generation. I know what you mean. I watched this huge growth in awareness and responsibility, and international and inter-faith connections happening – remember Sting and Peter Gabrielle working with Moslem Qawali singer, Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, and Moslem singer Ali Farka Touré? – and how the whole world seemed to truly be coming together in peace. It wasn’t all in vain. Do a search on “creating an enlightened planetary civilisation” and see what comes up. You’re right that there is a hidden, much darker force at work behind the scenes. I personally believe we need to know of its existence so we’re not fooled by it but, really, the goal is to have a mind that is free of it altogether, free to create anew …
Moslems are saying that “the War on Terror” is a euphemism for a war on Moslems. I think that’s why they want to be in positions of power and influence in the West so they can deal with this at source.
I think you give Islam too much credit. Is it not a declared goal of Islam to take over the whole world? It seems they won’t be happy until Sharia law applies everywhere.
The UK population are already being dehumanised by Government dogs and.this country already has a nazi king who is firmly aligned with the illuminati. Come on, old queenie supported AH as do all the Saxe-Coburgs, truth be known. Why do you think they dropped the kraut name.
But, they are letting Muslim men overrun England. What’s up with that ?
There’s two sides to this, as far as I can tell: one is George Sore Arse’s homogenised world that he’s trying to create; and the other is that Moslems know they are under attack from the West and want to get into Western nations in enough numbers to do something to change the dynamic, and I’m pretty sure GS is helping facilitate this. It’s why you see more and more Moslems getting into positions of power – it’s the consequences of Western hegemony (“Oh, well, if it isn’t the consequences of my own behaviour” kind of thing). Look at the genocide in Gaza and Southern Lebanon, and the war of aggression – the most serious of all international crimes – against Iran. The Western nations have gone beyond pretending and now openly and defiantly flout international law. It looks to me like an act of desperation but real people are being harmed and killed by it. And then, of course, if Western countries devolve into some kind of civil war, then the powers that be just declare Martial Law and that’s the end of elections and democracy (however useless they are) and the beginning of complete tyranny. It’s all part of the plan. It’s why the peaceful way is best.
There were claims and assertions about people being in cahoots with the Russians or communists or whatever, but it loses some credibility due to the lack of references and sources to substantiate any of those assertions. I for one am not convinced that the “bogey man” is in China or Russia; for us he is much closer to home and anyone who tries to make us look over there is, for me, to be suspected of misdirecting.
With regard to Arthur Scargill I wouldn’t be surprised if he was an agent but one who helped destroy the trade union movement in tandem, knowingly or unknowingly, with Margaret Thatcher, both working for the same goal, directed by the same organisation, probably convinced that they were working for competely different ends.
I should have said “..and anyone who tries to make us look over there is to be supected of misdirecting, even if he is Lord Monckton of Brenchley”
Oh, boy. The guy lost me at the first paragraph. I’m amazed at how people still believe the propaganda that “Russia invaded Ukraine”, and saying that China “backed the Taliban” is conflating so many things I’d be here all day unpacking it – and then the article goes on, and on, and on, to overwhelm your mind by the sheer weight of words. The implication is that “China backed the Taliban to ….. destroy the West” but I bet it was nothing more than China supplying rocket launchers or AK47’s. And I can guarantee that the Taliban weren’t under orders from China but were motivated entirely by getting these Western usurpers out of their country once and for all. Understanding human nature and human motivation is easy if you just apply the rules of children playing in a sand pit. When you get what’s really happening in the world, you’ll see that the Western powers – the US, Israel, the EU and Britain – seem hell-bent on fomenting war everywhere to set up a global dominance structure run by them, and violate all norms of international law to do it; and that the BRICS countries, including Iran, just want to do business and otherwise leave each other alone. Use this as the reference point and you can then gauge which side of the line writers like this one are on and make up your mind from there. And know that the talk of the Western powers using nuclear weapons on Iran is burbling away in the background. Do you want to be on the side of the line with people who would seriously contemplate such a thing? If you don’t know, Ukraine is a NATO proxy war on Russia, the intention of which you can trace all the way back to 1945 ….
My thoughts EXACTLY. What a ridiculous take on world events.
Галиматью писать не надо, в России давно уже нет коммунистов, даже КПРФ имеет скорее социалистическую идеологию.
Hi Valery, В чем разница между социализмом и коммунизмом?
Leo XIV’s new Chinese bishop wrote poem honoring Communist Party

Mr Monckton shoots well below the main target. Russia and China may well be benefiting from the West’s net zero obsession but they did not start or fund it. That ‘honour’ belongs to the West’s own billionaire class, the most notable player being the Rockefeller dynasty. They have been pumping billions of dollars into NGO’s and climate activist groups via their various ‘philanthropic’ Foundations. The activists in those groups may well be consideration ‘leftist’ but (as with other prominent ‘social justice’ causes) their very existence depends funding from the likes of George Soros’s ‘Open Society Foundations’ the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation and Rockefeller Brothers Fund.
China’s rise as an industrial power has been facilitated by the West ever since Henry Kissinger’s mission to Beijing in 1970. This was followed by loans and technical expertise to enable the shifting of Western manufacturing to China. Note how the Paris Climate Agreement allowed China to massively increase its fossil fuel production capacity without any bleating from the ‘world is doomed’ brigade.
As for the Russophobia. Ask yourself why all the Western nations – that are forcing upon us net zero, industrial decline, European demographic change, the destruction of our identities, LGBTQ++ ideologies, increasing censorship and draconian laws – so intent on investing so much of our resources and money on bringing Russia to heal?
Let’s say it happens. Who would notice the difference now as things are being run down in this country. At least they believe in building which is what is not happening here. China supporting the Taliban. And this peer advises governments!
