North Vietnam did not settle for this and started a war against the ethnic vietnamese government of South Vietnam &#8211; they were the defenders. US got roped in and escalated their presence but largely did not cross the 17<sup>th<\/sup> parallel into North Vietnam with land forces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Atrocities carried out by US was exceeded by the north Vietnamese side. The US left and lost and too was the north Vietnamese that broke the truce and continued as soon as US left.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Or South Africa that absolutely deserved an end to their Apartheid-regime but it was Soviet drumming up the support for ending this among university students in the west and the subsequent boycotts absolutely crippled the south African regime.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia did not do this out of compassion for the majority population of South Africa but for dominance in Africa &#8211; Soviet had other motives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today Wagner are in over half of the countries in Africa killing, raping and instigating civil wars \u2013 Russia is not your friend and among the worst of the predators.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And they did it again a few years back \u2013 the anti-colonial movement have completely pacified the leaders in the west so nobody will interfere as Russia is now spreading out over the African continent in a cloud of murder and plunder.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What stood out to me when I watched something about the Vietnam war was that when US decided to go after the Viet Cong bases in Cambodja then all-out anti-war protests erupted in most US universities \u2013 when it hurt Viet Cong then the peace protests kicked in overdrive \u2013 a reasonably strong link to suspect Russian involvement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And as soon as US left and North Vietnam steamrolled the south, nobody cared anymore \ud83e\uddd0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I remember the \u201cVietnamese boat refugees\u201d from when I was a kid but in Sweden that was presented as US being responsible for those, not North Vietnam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other bit was Kissingers catastrophic negotiations in 1972 &#8211; pretty similar to Trumps peace negotiations in the Ukraine war, until he gave up \ud83d\ude00<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia identifies division and internal conflicts in countries and ignites and amplifies it as much as they can. During the cold war +80% of KGB budget went to this as it was low cost and yielded amazing results \u2013 they could win wars and take over countries without firing a single bullet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Sweden they have armed the gangs and supplied them with drugs to sell and the know-how.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An added benefit of their activities are of course making a sh1t-tonne of money on the side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ukraine-Russia war is a clear-cut war for independence from a vial oppressor, that is also one of the worlds last colonial powers &#8211; worthy cause for the world to rally against but the grass root movement is not there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this war it has been governments doing the right thing and citizens-movements been largely absent \u2013 have you seen anti-israel or pro-ukraine protests in your city over the last couple of years?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia is incredibly good at what they are doing, they even managed to instigate a difficult discussion on the colonial past in the west to pacify us so they could re-colonize Africa again in recent years \ud83d\ude36<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wagner proudly released a movie a while ago where they chopped up live prisoners with axe on the tarmac in a country in Africa \u2013 do not recommend anyone to watch that\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia are now trying to topple Israel the same way as they toppled South Africa through sanctions, and they are trying to get us in west to abandon Ukraine as they got US out of Vietnam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Same playbook different year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Merz in Germany had a splash of potential russian intervention when he did not get elected as chancellor \u2013 Russia thrives in narrow-majority situations as they always have someone anonymous they can bribe but a vote is a vote. It eventually got sorted out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Romania they played safe and pocketed both the extreme left and extreme right \u2013 much as they have done in most of Europe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brexit was a Russian operation and in hindsight \u2013 2015 came as a god-send for the brexiteers, and that also had Russian finger prints all over it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Russia is in a war with West and they are actively destabilizing Europe as we speak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The murder candidates, they bribe politicians, they threaten others into submission \u2013 this is a priority for the Russian state and they got plenty of budget for it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In Sweden it has been revealed that they have links to organized crime so they got both the money and the means to threaten without having to send anyone in from Russia \u2013 domestic work force already in place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their sabotage is now covering most of Europe and it is increasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image is-resized\"><a
