The Empire Shows Its True Colors

The Empire Shows Its True Colors | LaRouchePAC

In June of this year, Mr. LaRouche identified the threat posed by ‘colored revolutions’ to sovereign nations, specifically those aiming at Russia. With nations collapsing around the globe, Mr. LaRouche forcefully conveyed that the British Empire is bankrupt, and uses colored revolutions as an act of warfare against sovereign nations. Tony Blair called it “a new type of war,” we at LaRouchePAC call it the Empire’s True Colors. LaRouche said:

Now the time has come at which Obama’s crimes have become so prominent, and have become so complicated in other parts of the world. Now, how do we have to estimate this thing?

Now, you have to understand what Putin is doing, from this standpoint. Putin is, first, aware that what he’s up against is a war against Russia, in particular, which is directed by the President of the United States. Right? It’s a fact. He does it. But they don’t call it a war. It’s a “scramble.”

But they’re running it as a form of irregular warfare, but it is warfare, it is not irregular—yes, it’s irregular in some respects, but they don’t call it warfare, but it is warfare! The idea is, if they go in with knowing things, like these kinds of operations, and they say, “Well, that’s not warfare. These guys are patriots, they’re, you know, dealing against repression.”

Over the last two days, Russia and China have responded to the terrible reality of these ‘color revolutions,’ by signalling that their nations intend to not only prevent this type of Guerilla warfare from succeeding at all costs, but that they intend to collaborate to crush their common foe.

Russian President Vladimir Putin met with his Security Council in the Kremlin, yesterday, to discuss a “Strategy for Countering Extremism in the Russian Federation through 2025.” Just as Defense Minister Shoigu and Deputy Defense Minister Antonov yesterday in Beijing called for China and Russia to work together against “color revolutions,” naming Hongkong and Ukraine, so Putin today said that Russia must do everything necessary to stop them.

Putin said:

“In the modern world…extremism is often used as a geopolitical instrument to rearrange spheres of influence. We see the tragic consequences of the wave of so-called colour revolutions, the turmoil in the countries that have undergone the irresponsible experiments of covert and sometimes blatant interference in their lives. We take this as a lesson and a warning, and we must do everything necessary to ensure this never happens in Russia.”

He distinguished legitimate protest from the “regime change” operations run from the outside:

“As we assert our freedom of choice, the right to hold meetings, marches and rallies, we should not forget that we are responsible for our words and deeds. We must know and bear in mind that breeding conflict between people of different ethnicity and religion, propaganda of nationalist ideology, mass violations of public order on these grounds, and particularly calls for a violent overthrow of the existing regime are direct manifestations of anti-national thinking and extremism.”

Similarly, on the day previous, November 18th, following his talks with Chinese Defense Minister General Chang Wanquan, visiting Russian Defense Minister Sergey Shoigu said Russia and China should jointly stand against color revolutions which both countries are facing.

Russian Deputy Defense Minister Anatoly Antonov told the Tass news agency,

“We focused on those events which have recently taken place in Hong Kong, and both ministers acknowledged that no country is immune from color revolutions…It only seems that these color revolutions and these experiments by Western spin doctors, including those from the United States, are being implemented somewhere far from China or the Russian Federation…

All this is in fact near us, and we believe that Russia and China should work together to withstand this new security challenge to our countries.”

TASS reports that Antonov also referred to this year’s events in Ukraine as a “coup d’état.” Russia and China, in his words, know about the problem of “color revolution” on the example of Ukraine,

“where a coup d’etat took place and we now see the trials this brotherly country is living through, and we see how much effort is to be exerted by all to establish peace, tranquility and order in that country.”

Indeed, LaRouchePAC identified the especially non democratic nature of these ‘democracy movements’ in our video published February 20th of this year, ‘Democracy Projects’ Are Not Democratic: The Case of Ukraine & Russia

Empire Press Gloats Over Latest Color Revolution, Targets Hungary as Next Ukraine

Yesterday’s International Business Times boasts under the headline “Is Hungary the Next Ukraine? Protests Show Country Ripe for Conflict between Russia and Europe,” that a “color revolution” is successfully underway in that country.

Is Obama Preparing a Coup Against the Czech Government?

Carl Gershman, president of the National Endowment for Democracy which funds the “color” insurrectionists, denounced the Czech government and President Milos Zeman in a Washington Post op-ed published Monday, November 17. A mob attacked Czech President Milos Zeman later that day. Gershman and the NED will host a meeting in Washington today — co-sponsored by the Czech Embassy — on the “continuing struggle” for democracy in the Czech Republic and Ukraine.

Color Revolutions in the Making for Czech Republic and Hungary?

A large crowd turned out at Prague’s Národní St. at 11 AM on Nov. 17, for a demonstration against Czech President Milo Zeman, with thousands whistling and holding up red cards. The organizers of the protest said it had been aimed at highlighting the President’s criticism of anti-Russian sanctions and his warm relations with China. Bodyguards had to unfurl umbrellas to block eggs, sandwiches, and other missiles being hurled in at Zeman
