"According to the official version of history (said Brzezinski), CIA aid to the mujahideen began during 1980, that is to say, after the Soviet army invaded Afghanistan, on December 24, 1979. But the reality, secretly guarded until now, is completely otherwise; Indeed, it was July 2, 1979, that President Carter signed the first directive for secret aid to the opponents of the pro-Soviet regime in Kabul. And that very day I wrote a note to the president in which I explained to him in my opinion this aid was going to induce a Soviet military intervention."

In a recent interview,
Paul Craig Roberts, former economic adviser (US Department of the Treasury) to the late President Ronald Reagan,
outlined, with astonishing foresight, the trajectory that the current Middle East crisis may follow, and his insight is both brilliant and terrifying. To paraphrase Roberts's analysis,
the Israeli-Gaza conflict is merely the beginning of a widening conflict in the Middle East, spreading toward the neocon's main target, Iran.Though Iran is extremely powerful now, the conflict will greatly weaken the country,
making possible the West's stealthy infiltration of jihadists into the Central Asian countries which border Iran and extend to both the
Russian borders and, indeed the
Chinese border, with Xinjiang, bordering Kazakhstan. Though Roberts does not mention China, the logic of his thesis would extend to China.
The purpose of these jihadists, infiltrated into countries neighboring Russia, with large Islamic populations which have, historically lived in peace with citizens of very diverse ethnic and religious identities, including Russian, Catholic, Jewish citizens, often intermarrying,
will be, as Brzezinski planned.This purpose will be, (as superbly reported in Robert Dreyfuss's masterpiece,
Devil's Game, How the United States Helped Unleash Fundamentalist Islam,
Eyeing Moscow's Islamic 'Underbelly', to incite violent, extremist religious separatist movements, destabilizing these peaceful Central Asian countries, fomenting "color revolutions" (as was tried, but failed in Kazakhstan recently),
and engineering bloody putsch in these countries - similar to the one incited in Ukraine in 2014 - with the ensuing devastating wars.
Comment:
Arnaud Bernard commented on Twitter about this meeting: So the EU managed to snub all those whom they had invited by not all coming together and then on top of it they snub China by not inviting them. The way things are going, soon no one will be interested in what the EU garden club says and it will sink into irrelevance. The same goes for sports events, which will start to happen outside the existing politicised Western dominated institutions. The BRICS+ countries will lead the way to an alternative world.
