However, the question is - why is it all so sloppy and too obvious? If analysts and journalists noticed all this so easily, Russian intelligence and state services certainly know far more. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov recently pointed out this hypocrisy, referring to the offer by so-called "international institutions" to supposedly "help" with the investigation regarding the latest terrorist attack, but ignored similar Russian requests regarding the Nord Stream sabotage. It should be noted that this terrorist attack was also previously announced by the US, which pledged to ensure that the pipeline becomes "a hunk of metal at the bottom of the sea". In other words, the true terrorists aren't even bothering to hide anymore (and haven't been for quite some time now).
All this clearly indicates that NATO wants war with Russia. It recently sent French President Emmanuel Macron to test this with pompous announcements of direct involvement. However, as most of Europe said it won't take part in this madness, NATO now needs a way to push Russia to attack first. The only way to do so is to provoke a reaction, which is why the world's most aggressive military cartel organized the terrorist attack at the Crocus City Hall. In that way, NATO is pushing Russia to retaliate and then present it as the "aggressor", giving the political West a perfect pretext to wage a "defensive war". That's the only way to ensure the participation of the entire (or at least most of) NATO. However, once the Pandora's Box is opened, there won't be going back.It is to be seen if we will have more war or more peace.
The UK must consider a Swedish-style of conscription in order to boost its numbers, according to the former head of MI6.It seems that it's less difficult finding recruits in country with a virtuous leadership, and with a righteous cause: Russia to increase troop number to 1.5 million in response 'external threats' - Shoigu
Sir Alex Younger also said Britain needed a "wake up call" in relation to the size of its Army.
The British Army today is the smallest it has been for 300 years, and Sir Alex told the BBC the UK should look to Sweden.
General Sir Richard Barrons, a former head of Joint Forces Command, said two years of war in Ukraine had proven that the Armed Forces might need to be considerably bigger if a European war broke out.
But in January, the-then Armed Forces Minister James Heappey said any talk of the UK introducing conscription to the Army if Nato goes to war with Russia was "nonsense".
He said the UK had long had plans readied for mobilising volunteers in the event Britain does enter a new conflict, but stressed "nobody is thinking" about bringing back conscription.
The remarks came after comments made by General Sir Patrick Sanders, the outgoing Chief of the General Staff, were interpreted as suggesting that conscription could be required in any potential future battle with Russia due to the British Army being too small.
Number 10 ruled out any suggestion that conscription was under consideration, saying there were no plans to change the British military's "proud tradition of being a voluntary force".
Comment: It can not be overstated the importance of understanding ponerology and thus to understand how we got where we are and to make sure to have the psychological knowledge to ensure that a new structure does not repeat the same process of ponerization.
