Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS) Warning To Merkel on Russian ‘Invasion’ Intel

Alarmed at the anti-Russian hysteria sweeping Official Washington – and the specter of a new Cold War – U.S. intelligence veterans took the unusual step of sending this Aug. 30 memo to German Chancellor Merkel challenging the reliability of Ukrainian and U.S. media claims about a Russian “invasion.”
Take Away: "You need to know, for example, that accusations of a major Russian “invasion” of Ukraine appear not to be supported by reliable intelligence. Rather, the “intelligence” seems to be of the same dubious, politically “fixed” kind used 12 years ago to “justify” the U.S.-led attack on Iraq."

We've had Russia invade:
Chechnya
Ingushetia
Dagestan
Ossetia
Abkhazia
Crimea
Ukraine

Now they are trying to carve a new state of Donbass out of the Donetsk and Luhansk out of Ukraine to create a land link to Crimea.

We've had leaders over thrown and replaced with Russian supported leaders in Tajikistan, Kyrgyzstan,

We had Russian troops along the border of Estonia and Latvia with periodic incursions. We even had Russians taunting the Fins in recent months with fighter planes. Russian troops remain in Transnistria.

So given all that, none of which constitutes Russian hostility what would actually be classified as an invasion?

Would taking back Latvia or Estonia be an 'invasion'? Perhaps Moldova? Well maybe not Moldova because there are cultural ties and Russian troops already present.

I think we can definitely say that if Poland or Romania have their leaders overthrown and replaced with Russian supported leaders, that is an invasion?
Or is that justified because of European encirclement too?
I'm just curious how far it would have to go. It seems like the old left is ready to accept that Russia and Europe have CAUSE to be add odds. That Ukraine having a trade relationship with Europe IS a threat to Russia. I'm not sure Europeans will have their tanks rolling into Moscow next or line up troops on the border of Russia to provoke Putin. I don't even think Europe would really take up arms if Latvia and Estonia and Lithuania voted to rejoin the Russian Federation. I realize it isn't going to happen but I think it's worth thinking about when presenting a case that Europeans are "encircling" Russia.

It's an impressive list Ryan. It's too bad that a simple list doesn't provide any background. I mean, what would the US do if violent Islamists invaded Mexico? This is what happened in Chechnya, Ingushetia and Dagestan.

To call Crimea an invasion is ridiculous. The Russian troops were already there.

Let's have some evidence. So far there is no objective evidence that Russia has invaded Ukraine. None. There is hearsay. There are mysterious photos where someone must tell you what to see.

Unfortunately, we are in a world where evidence is no longer relevant. Most people make up their mind from misleading headlines and sound bytes.

Show me the evidence. Convince me.

I am capable of being convinced by solid evidence. That's how I got MMT.

It's going to take more than "Evil Putin's Imperial Ambitions" being self evident.

The Europeans have "invaded" a long list of former European nations aligned with Russia in an attempt to "encircle." Oddly though, accompanying this aggressive posture, the Europeans have cut their collective military budgets by two thirds and the US has removed troops, equipment and closed bases in Europe.

Telepathic telekinesis terror
divided by telepath´s
telepathietelekineseterror.blogspot.com

I want warn all

Fakts are there are Telepath's and they are able to telekinesis. They can controls people by showing them that they can kill you and make you crazy.
The possibilities are only a hypothesis.

This ist the most probability possibility:
Are vou hearing ghosts demon, devil or maybe they are telling you that they are God. Maybe some people think they were becoming irradiatet from Mindcontrol weapons or rays from satelite. I think all people who can hear and /or fell that are influenced by telepath with telekinetic forces.
The telepath are able to control people by show them that they can kill you and you can do nothing because no one belief you. This will be tested at human like me to control person in politics an d economy maybe military too.

Request:
Because maybe that telepath are the cause of big problems in the world.
Everybody who knows them should talk about them. I think that a lot people are knowing about them but don´t like speak about because the telepath are lying and say:
You have to don´t speak about telepath, if you talk, talk about voice or vote don’t say the word Telepath.
Or they let you know that they can kill you.
Or: Say nothing no one will belive you you´ll get crazy.
So They have the possibility to control all

It´s important to talk about.!!!

Systematic of the evil Telepath (properties they use systematically)
<no one knows about or believe that
-They will tell you that often and hope that´s enough that you aren’t talking about
-But you have to talk about, so you can be sure if they kill you, someone known’s about.
<They let hear you voices
-There own voice
-Voices about other person in the the acoustic of all
-Voices of your friends or old friends you haven´t seen long time because they know your
Memorys
< If you are talking about other person you don´t hear them loudly
-They want that you are every time in bars talking with people so they can talk about terror
maybe killing and you aren´t hearing them
<before you are knowing that what you are hearing are telepath
-They want´s to manipulate you that no one believe you or every one think you are crazy.
-At the beginning they let you hearing only voices.
-They want that you became crazy or get into panic.
<If you check that are Telepath they get more crazy and use telekinesis.
-maybe they say you a story:
We work for police you are becoming a telepath and you have bound with a lot of
People you need Neuroleptika to end the boundings you have to get them in
psychiatric clinic.
<They want´s to control you with fear
They can let feel you something like:
-Sharp pain or pressure on the heart
-burning in the lunge
-let feel dizziness
-heart throb in two different
-1st you feel the heart throb but your puls is normal (telepathic (not real))
-2nd you feel the heart throb and with them the pulst (telekinetic (is REAL))
If they want that you get a heart attack you´ll get heart throb by telekinesis.
<Psychologize
-they know what you think about and hear them, they also know your mental stress level.
-They uses psychical traps so you´ll get crazy.
Typical Example We don´t kill you! What sure, puhh. Now he think again we don´t kill him, ha ha ha.
