Is Putin Being Set Up?

By Patrick J. Buchanan

Whoever poisoned Alexander Litvinenko had two goals: a long and lingering death for the KGB defector and pointing a finger of accusation for his killing right in the face of Vladimir Putin.

Which leads me to believe Putin had nothing to do with it.

In an assassination, one must ask: Cui bono? To whose benefit? Who would gain from the poisoning of Litvinenko?

Certainly not Putin. Litvinenko’s death puts him, the Kremlin and the KGB, now the FSB, under suspicion of having reverted to the terror tactics of Stalin, who commissioned killers to liquidate enemies like Leon Trotsky, murdered in Mexico in 1940.

What benefit could Putin conceivably realize from the London killing of an enemy of his regime, who had just become a British citizen? Why would the Russian president, at the peak of his popularity, with his regime awash in oil revenue and himself playing a strong hand in world politics, risk a breach with every Western nation by ordering the public murder of a man who was more of a nuisance than a threat to his regime?

Litvinenko, after all, made his sensational charges against the Kremlin—that the KGB blew up the Moscow apartment buildings, not Chechen terrorists, as a casus belli for a war on Chechnya and that he had refused a KGB order to assassinate oligarch Boris Berezovsky— in the late 1990s. Of late, Litvinenko has been regarded as a less and less credible figure, with his charges of KGB involvement in 9-11 and complicity in the Danish cartoons mocking Muhammad that ignited the Muslim firestorm.

Yet, listening to some Western pundits on the BBC and Fox News, one would think Putin himself poisoned Litvinenko. Who else, they ask, could have acquired polonium 210, the rare radioactive substance used to kill Litvinenko? Who else had the motive to eliminate the ex-agent who had dedicated his life to exposing the crimes of the Kremlin? (….Full Article Here)

Immigration’s Sickening Futility For America

In my 12 part series, now in its ninth week, “THE NEXT ADDED 100 MILLION AMERICANS,” I intend for every reader to connect the dots of the futility and danger of adding tens of millions to the United States. Additionally, as readers around the globe read the series, I hope you understand the futility of adding two to three billion more humans to our planet home by mid century.

Since world leaders abrogate their responsibility in the face of this planetary “human dilemma,” I intend for average planetary citizens to become the new leaders of the 21st century. Armed with knowledge and integrity, you form a formidable armada to provoke change.

Back in the U.S., by 2040, that 100 million will have manifested itself in our country, IF, and that is a big, IF, we fail to stop the human tsunami that will turn into a ‘Human Katrina’ of destruction of our civilization. It doesn’t have to happen, because we enjoy being sentient beings. We possess choice above our instincts.

If you look at the end of this column, you will see that I offer a program, “THE COMING POPULATION CRISIS IN AMERICA: AND WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT.” It’s a compelling if not sobering program on what will happen to our nation if we don’t stop the futility of immigrating overloaded nations into our country. It shows we solve nothing for the sending countries, but we most surely will destroy our own functioning and viable society.

Since most Americans can’t see my program first hand, I’m offering you to click on this web site for a powerful and compelling 14 minute video by Roy Beck of NumbersUSA.com titled: “IMMIGRATION BY THE NUMBERS.”
