...The All-Powerful, from whom we hold our life and our throne, after having revealed unto us his wishes and intentions, and after being our support, permits us to look upon Russia as called upon to establish her rule over all Europe...From this it results that they can be easily conquered by a new race of people, when it has attained full power and strength. We look upon our invasion of the West and the East as a decree of Divine Providence, which has already once regenerated the Roman empire by an invasion of barbarians...

Russia Proposes Defense Shield With Europe

Russia's Long Range Vision June 19, 2000
Putin ... speaks fluent German; and winning over Germany is the key to breaking up NATO ... Putin visited Germany last week. He met privately with the German Chancellor Gerhard Schroeder at least four times. Not even a translator was present. These one-on-one sessions were so intimate that they aroused the amazement of the German press ... Germany is the heart of Europe. To win the heart is to win the whole. That is what the Russians are trying to achieve. That is the next step in Russia's long-range plan.

Who Was Behind The Bolshevik Revolution? May 18, 2000
The anti-communist movement in America has long been afflicted by an historical misunderstanding which persists today. There is a widespread teaching about communism and its origins which is false. The 20th century version of this teaching originated with Russian anti-Semites. Relying on false documents and a conspiratorial hypothesis, these anti-Semites blamed Jews and Freemasons for a wide-ranging global conspiracy to destroy Christianity and create a world government. One of the key historical facts alleged by these Russian anti-Semites has to do with the origins of the Bolshevik Revolution.

The Trogan Horse May 15, 2000

Mongols, Maginot And Strategic Defense March 16, 2000
There are no invincible countries, no foolproof defenses and no impregnable fortifications. Those who passively wait to be attacked are vulnerable. But those who plan an attack, who use maneuver and strategy rather than relying on a fixed line of defense, often prevail.

Update On The Threat From Russia And China March 2, 2000
Russia is quickly building up its military power. Troop mobilizations, rocket tests, the introduction of revolutionary new weapons, and Russia's continuing augmentation of its strategic metals stockpile tells a story of ongoing war preparations. But now we have another red flag indicator...

Trading With The Enemy Feb. 21, 2000
Imagine if a leading gangster lived across the street from you. Let us say this is a person whose crimes are infamous, who brags about killing people, who says that power comes out of the barrel of a gun. How would you behave toward such a person? Would you go across the street and open a relationship?

Putin Clamps Down On Free Speech Feb. 19, 2000
ONE of them narrowly escaped being sent to an asylum. Another is missing and feared dead in Chechnya.

"A Man We Can Do Business With" J.R. Nyquist, Feb. 17, 2000

Revolution And Economic Sabotage Whatever the future holds, recent events point in a sinister direction. The Russians, Chinese and North Koreans have been mobilizing their military forces in recent months. Russian economic measures suggest that Moscow is anticipating some kind of military crisis.

Is The Russian Army Incompetent? How is it possible that a few thousand rebels can overcome the war machine of the Russian Federation? We even have reliable reports that the Russians have been using fuel-air bombs on the rebels. According to the Russian General Staff, fuel-air bombs are weapons of mass destruction, as powerful as small nuclear weapons.

The New Believers (Rise of the Russian Orthodox Church) "All the bishops were carefully picked so that they would work with the soviet government. All were KGB agents. It is well known that Patriarch Alexy was recruited by the KGB, under the code-name of Drozdov. Today, they are preserving the same politics that they had 20 or 30 years ago."
