OPERATION BARBAROSSA ONCE AGAIN

Hello, this is Darrell Castle with today’s Castle Report. This is Friday the 13^th day of November in the year of our Lord 2026. I will be talking about plans by the European Council, which is made up exclusively of unelected bureaucrats, to send European troops into Ukraine. Perhaps I am a little dramatic by comparing that to Hitler’s invasion of Russia in June of 1941 but nevertheless I will attempt to make that argument.

First I have to talk a little about two notable dates that occurred this week and those were the Marine Corps Birthday on the 10^th. That is the 251^st birthday by my crude math and Veterans Day on the 11^th. Veterans Day was originally known as Armistice Day and it marked the end of World War I, 108 years ago, on the 11^th of this month. The people breathed a sigh of relief that the killing and dying were over rather than the joyous celebration that marked the end of World War II.

I wonder what if the veterans of World War I could have seen the future that was to come for 108 years. The Great War that was fought to make the world safe for democracy led to almost continuous war for the next 108 years and counting. The Marine Corps birthday is special to Marines almost like their own birthday because whatever and whenever Marines are called on to go somewhere and kill or be killed they remain ready to go. Each new administration tries to disband the Marine Corps and fold it into the army but Marines are known as fighters and so far they have won each battle for survival.

Yes, folks Hitler thought he could conquer Russia in six weeks or so he advised his generals. They tried to tell him how to run the war but he was just too arrogant to listen because he thought of himself as a military genius although he was a corporal in the Great War. Hitler was not the only European to attack Russia since Nepoleon did it about a century earlier. The problem that kept them from Moscow was the vast distance a European army had to cover. That distance existed until a Western friendly government was installed in Ukraine and that is the concern Russia has with NATO moving to its border.

No one asked the German people if they wanted to go to war with Russia just as no one asked them and the French people if they want to send troops to Ukraine. Macron can’t or won’t defend France from invaders, communists and anarchists but he is very willing to defend Ukraine.

For some reason the Europeans have lusted to make war on Russia for centuries. Why are they so anxious to get involved in that struggle when their own countries are torn by strife bordering on revolution. If you look at what they are planning perhaps it is not as dire as I’ve made it sound or perhaps it is worse. Let me back up for a moment and fill in the rest of the story.

This week in Abu Dhabi tripartite talks have been going on between the U.S., Ukraine, and Russia to hopefully find some way to end the war in Ukraine. No peace yet, but it seems that progress has been made with prisoner exchanges and so forth. The U.S. negotiators Steve Wittkoff and Jared Kushner are in Russia as I record this to brief Putin on the negotiations. The Europeans sent representatives to the meeting but they were not invited in and that made them very angry. They do not want peace it seems and are determined to keep the war going.

So, the European Council decides to send troops into Ukraine, but only after a ceasefire is in place. Russia has said quite clearly that any European troops in Ukraine would be legitimate targets. Surely they don’t think he is bluffing so I can think of only one reason and that is a tripwire to draw the U.S. into the war. If Russia attacked their troops I suppose they could call that an article 5 violation of the NATO charter and call on the U.S. to come to their aid and full-scale war would be on. Every European bureaucrat dreams of such things apparently. They are repeated experts at creating messes only U.S. blood and treasure can get them out of.

Some of the things the Russian negotiators said about the meeting and the willingness of both sides to show some flexibility is encouraging. “Together with the American side, we exchanged our views on this; on some points we reached a common understanding, whilst on others we did not. And this discussion will, of course, continue. The world needs a new modern, updated security system—one that is fair and does not disadvantage any particular countries.”

He went on to say that a bilateral meeting between Putin and Trump is currently being discussed and studied. Finally, he said openings and opportunities have been presented. That’s good, and any talk of peace is almost always good. The idea of war with Russia is as stupid now as it was in 1941. It didn’t work out so well for Hitler who failed to understand that getting to Moscow before winter was necessary for the survival of the German army. The arrogant Europeans don’t seem to understand Russia any more than Hitler did.

Before any European leader decides to put his nation on the border with Russia I would recommend he study a little history and he might also read Annie Jacobsen’s book Biological War. In that book the author traces the history of biological warfare in modern times. That means that after U.S, scientists discovered how to unravel DNA and splice together gene sequences from different viruses and pathogens to make them more deadly and unstoppable.

Some of the weapons she describes have been built or invented by very smart people who have programmed the genetics of deadly pathogens to avoid all human defenses such as the immune system. Although they apparently got the technology from U.S. scientists who first developed it at Stanford University as with nuclear technology the Russians have adopted it and apparently are still working on it. Just the other day there was some kind of leak at a lab in Siberia which apparently specializes in weaponized plague.

What I’m saying is be careful and leave Russia alone whenever possible. Europe should be buying their natural gas instead of sending troops. One last glimpse at history tells us that in the five years between 1347 and 1352 plague killed 150 million people or one-third to one half the population of Europe. Most of those people could have been saved with today’s antibiotics but no more. This plague is genetically engineered to escape all known antibiotics as well as the human immune system. Who would create such a diabolical living weapon. Insane monsters I guess but remember the technology was developed at Stanford University.

Hear in America voters voiced their extreme disapproval of this warfare system that our politicians have developed. Voters went to the polls and empowered Democrats like they never have before because they want them to do something about it. Did they get the message. I see no evidence that they did. Thomas Massie brought his articles of impeachment against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth back to the house for a vote.

I admit that attacking Hegseth is a back handed way to get at the President because he was undoubtably carrying out the orders of the President. Nevertheless, Congress had a chance to voice its disapproval at the way the war against Iran was started and is being conducted. It’s so bad now that the President even ignores the war powers act and acts as the sole decider and then the entire nation goes to war. The House of Representatives had a chance to stop the accumulation of executive power over the nation and take back its war making authority but it didn’t.

The impeachment resolution contained eight articles any one of which could have set the stage for the Secretary’s removal from office. If that had happened it would have dominated the rest of Trump’s term and would have made it almost impossible to get a new secretary approved by such a hostile congress. The House clerk read the eight articles which took an hour and 16 minutes. Every member knew the vote was coming as members in their offices are constantly updated on how many minutes before the vote and they had over an hour’s notice on this one.

There was a motion to refer the articles back to the impeachment committee for further consideration. That motion passed 211 to 204 with 11 Democrats not voting. So, you can do the math which shows that if they had voted in favor of impeachment it would have passed. I won’t list all eleven of those not voting but it turns out that all eleven have been large recipients of AIPAC money.

The vote on impeachment could be the first item on the agenda for the new Congress on January 27^th. It might come out of committee and be presented or it might not but all 11 of those Democrats are incumbents who should be tracked by leadership and expected to vote. Whether or not they ever vote on it they will be without its presenter Thomas Massie who will be out of the new Congress. There are many other votes coming up in Congress which are directly related to the Iran war such as the vote to merge critical intelligences resources with the Israeli government. If the impeachment vote passed then the Secretary would be tried in the Senate and with the new majority he would likely be removed from office.

A chance for the Congress of the United States to stop aggressive, unnecessary wars and defend the sovereignty of the United States. I think so but we will see if they take the people seriously.

Finally, folks, this would not be complete without a quote from Ron Paul. “The wars are always the same, governments against the people.”

At least that’s the way I see it,

Until next time folks,

This is Darrell Castle,

Thanks for listening.
