In May of 2019, at the request of the U.S. Army, the Rand Corporation created strategies to destroy Russia -- strategies that included luring Russia into a war in Ukraine. The Rand Corporation receives three-quarters of its funding from the U.S. military. Rand is a "think tank".
Some of the strategies created in 2019 to destroy Russia included:
* Reposition bombers within easy striking range of key Russian strategic targets
* Deploy tactical nuclear weapons to locations in Europe and Asia
* Increase US and allied naval force presence in Russia’s operating areas (such as the Black Sea)
* Aggressive deployment of NATO, including holding NATO war exercises on Russia’s borders
* Withdrawing from the Nuclear Forces Treaty (the US formally withdrew on August 2, 2019 signalling that the U.S. will use nuclear weapons and/or give these weapons to Ukraine to use on Russia)
* Create a color revolution
* Set up a coup
* Sale of U.S. Liquid National Gas to the world to compete with Russia (i.e. sell U.S. reserves to the world)
* Cancel Nordstream II, the natural gas pipeline from Russia to Germany and parts of Europe
* Provide Lethal Aid to Ukraine
* Increase Support to the Syrian Rebels (who would go to Ukraine)
* Luring Russia into a war in Ukraine
BUT, even long before these 2019 strategies were created and put into place, the U.S. was already heavily interfering in Ukraine for many years -- Five Billion Dollars worth of interference.

Victoria Nuland was Assistant Secretary of State from 2013-2017. She was the lead point person for the Maidan Revolution and coup which took place in Ukraine in February 2014.
In a talk given by Nuland in 2014, she explained that the U.S. had already spent 5 Billion Dollars ($5,000,000,000) to subvert Ukraine from Russia. She said there are prominent businessmen and government officials who support the U.S. project to tear Ukraine from its historic relationship with Russia and into the U.S. sphere of interest. (link to Nuland's talk)
The $5 billion dollar project to turn Ukraine away from Russia culminated in the violent coup of February 2014, the Maidan Revolution.
The violent coup in Ukraine in 2014 was a means for the West to justify a new NATO military mobilization that they could use against Russia.
Previous to the coup, on January 28, 2014, Nuland and the U.S. ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt, had a telephone conversation which was later leaked on YouTube. Nuland said the U.S. was planning to overthrow Yanukovych and replace him with Arseniy Yatsenyuk. Nuland and Pyatt discussed who would be the next Ukrainian government.
This was before the coup took place--they were discussing which puppets to put in place.
Nuland established loans to Ukraine that provided assistance to the Ukrainian military. Along with Secretary of State John Kerry, she was a leading supporter of weapons delivery to Ukraine.
Since 2015, as part of this military training and weapons delivery, the U.S. has been training Neo-Nazi militias inside Ukraine. This has been well documented (see: NAZIs in source list).
During the US-backed coup in Ukraine, the U.S. State Dept. and Pentagon created the "Global Security Contingency Fund". This fund provided tens of millions of dollars-worth of training and equipment to Ukraine to develop tactical, operational, and institutional training capacities. (see: State Dept.)
The U.S. also enabled the integration of paramilitary forces into Ukrainian forces, which included the Nazi Azov Battalion.
Shortly after the 2014 coup, the Donetsk and Luhansk regions of Ukraine seceded from Ukraine. The Ukrainian military then attacked and bombed the pro-Russian separatists in Donetsk and Luhansk. The Neo-Nazis were sent to the front lines and remained there. The Azov Battalion led attacks and took the city of Mariupol.
The attacks on Donetsk and Luhansk has lasted years. 14,000 people were killed and between 7000-9000 civilians were injured.
1.5 million people were displaced. Many fled to Russia.
As you can see from the maps below, many people living in eastern Ukraine identify themselves with Russia.
In 2016, UN High Commission for Human Rights accused the Azov Battalion of war crimes including mass looting, unlawful detention and torture.

Starting in 2015, the Pentagon oversaw the "Joint Multinational Task Force" in Ukraine where the U.S. Army trained the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
In May of 2019, the U.S. Army asked the Rand Corporation to create strategies to destroy Russia -- strategies that included luring Russia into a war inside Ukraine.
Rand compiled a 354 page book of strategies to destroy Russia. Some of the geopolitical measures discussed were:
* Promote Regime Change in Belarus (Belarus is bordered by Russia to the east and northeast. Several treaties have been made between the two nations. Russia is Belarus' most important economic and political partner. To promote a regime change in Belarus, which has good relations with Russia, would mean placing an anti-Russia regime in its place via a coup or color revolution)
* Exploit Tensions in the South Caucasus (Russian influence in the South Caucasus has a long history. Russia’s strongest base of support in the South Caucasus is its bilateral relationship with Armenia. They have significant historical, religious and cultural ties, and their positions on most international issues are closely aligned. Out of all the regions that used to be part of the former Soviet Union, only the Caucasus has neighboring countries that do not have diplomatic relations with each other. It would be easy to exploit tensions with anti-Russia propaganda)
* Reduce Russian Influence in Central Asia (the nations of Central Asia have been independent from the former Soviet Union for three decades. The region’s relations with Russia are cordial, though not without occasional tensions. Central Asian states generally cooperate with Russia in areas such as defense, trade, and other common foreign policy interests)
The Rand report assessed that providing lethal military aid will have a high risk but also a high benefit.
U.S. lethal weaponry that went to Ukraine skyrocketed to $250 million dollars in 2019, to $303 million in 2020, to $350 million in 2021.
In November 2021, the U.S. and Ukraine signed a "Charter on Strategic Partnership". This agreement confirmed Ukrainian aspirations to join NATO and a rejection of the Crimean peoples decision to re-unify with Russia. The agreement was a consolidation of Washington’s economic, political and military influence.
Before the Russian invasion, Russia proposed a treaty with the U.S. and NATO. Central in this proposal was a written agreement that Ukraine would not join the NATO military alliance. Russia said the NATO military alliance at it's border threatens Russian security.
Washington and NATO rejected the proposal immediately without any discussion or consideration.
At U.S. suggestion, the Ukraine government shut off natural gas from Russia through Ukraine into Europe, reducing gas to Europe by more than one third.
The U.S. then encouraged the EU to increase weaponizing against Russia.
Because of the shut off of natural gas from Russia to Europe, Russia is pursuing pipelines to China and East Asia.
On February 4, 2022 President Putin and Chinese leader Xi Jinping met in Beijing. The two leaders struck deals on oil and gas. Their statement to the press criticized the U.S., taking issue with its alliances in Asia, its arms-control and other policies. Their statement also opposed expansion by NATO.
The opposition to NATO marked China’s most explicit support to date of Russia.
On February 21, 2022, Putin gave a speech detailing Russian grievances.
On February 24, 2022, Putin delivered another speech justifying objectives of a military intervention to “demilitarize” and “denazify” Ukraine. Remember, the Neo-Nazi battalion was focusing on targeting the pro-Russian region of Ukraine and had killed thousands and were continuing to attack civilians.
Before sending in the tanks, Putin invoked United Nations Article 51 which provides a legal justification for military intervention.
The 2019 Rand report assessed the "costs and benefits" of various U.S. actions. It considered it a “benefit” if additional assistance to Ukraine resulted in the loss of Russian blood and resources.
The Rand report also says, “Increasing U.S. military aid ... could also increase the loss of Ukrainian lives and territory or result in a disadvantageous peace settlement.”
A Peace Settlement would be disadvantageous. To whom?
Rand analysts say Russia’s greatest vulnerability is its economy because of its heavy dependency on oil and gas exports. Rand says the income from these exports can be reduced by sanctions and by increasing U.S. energy exports.
The Rand report also suggested pumping the Russian population with liberal values (indeed, that does seem to destroy a country, and Rand's analysts seem to know it; hence, they recommended it).
Western media is also being used as a weapon. Much of the factual data that has taken place has not been reported. Mainstream media has also blamed Russia for starting the war, but Russia did not start this war.
The war in Ukraine was planned long ago. Washington has orchestrated the provocations that were designed to lure Russia into Ukraine and drain its resources.
U.S. war planners want to splinter Russia into smaller pieces, topple the government, and seize its vast energy resources.
By the time Putin invaded Ukraine, the war had already begun and was ongoing. Shelling of ethnic Russians had been intensifying long before Russia entered.
More than 14,000 ethnic Russians, many of them children, had been killed before Russia entered Ukraine. People were being slaughtered and tens of thousands of refugees were fleeing across the border into Russia.
In an interview with Colonel Richard Black, Colonel Black said:
"If you look at the way that this unfolded, President Putin made a desperate effort to stop the march towards war back in December of 2021. ...because at this point, Ukraine was massing troops to attack the Donbas. And so, he was trying to head this off. He didn’t want war.
"...At that point, Putin seeing that armed Ukrainians, with weapons to kill Russian troops were literally on [Russia's] borders, decided he had to strike first. This was not some pre-planned attack. This was not like Hitler’s attack into Poland, where the standard rule of thumb, is that you always have a 3-to-1 advantage when you are the attacker. You have to mass three times as many tanks and artillery and planes and men, as the other side has.
"... when Russia went in, they went in with what they had, what they could cobble together on short notice. And they were outnumbered by the Ukrainian forces. The Ukrainian forces had about 250,000. The Russians had perhaps 160,000. ... But they were forced to attack, to try to preempt the battle that was looming, where the Ukrainians had massed these forces against the Donbas.
"The Donbas is adjacent to Russia. It is a portion of Ukraine that did not join with the revolutionary government that conducted the coup in 2014 and overthrew the government of Ukraine. They refused to become a part of the new revolutionary government of Ukraine. And so they declared their independence. And Ukraine had massed this enormous army to attack against the Donbas.
"And so Russia was forced to go in to preempt that planned attack by Ukraine. ...the Russians were very, very cautious. They didn’t want to create a great deal of hatred and animosity. They did not bomb the electrical system, the media systems, the water systems, the bridges and so forth. They tried to retain the infrastructure of Ukraine in good shape ...
"... they haven’t knocked out the train systems. They haven’t knocked out power plants. They’ve never bombed the buildings in the center of Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine; they haven’t bombed the buildings where the parliament meets. They’ve been incredibly reserved about these things, hoping against hope that peace could be achieved.
"[But] ... the decision about peace or war is made in Washington, D.C. As long as we want the war to continue, we will fight that war, using Ukrainians as proxies, and we will fight it to the last Ukrainian death.
* Colonel Black served in the Virginia House of Delegates from 1998 to 2006 and then in the Virginia Senate from 2012 to 2020. Colonel Black also served 31 years in the Army and Marines, was a JAG officer, and for a period of time, was the Army’s head of the criminal law division at the Pentagon.
