Psychologizing Hate and the Present Political Crisis.

I start by saying that the present international political crisis is useless to discuss because it is crisis caused by the nonexistence of definitive distinctions between Facts, Reality, and Truth. The absence of those distinctions is intentional and not accidental. The intention to one day Ukrainia would join NATO was there for many years, and a year and a half ago it was whispered as an invitation to join the European trade market. This subtle invitation created high aspirations in the Ukrainian you people (one was elated and saying yes, we want to be Europiean). But..but according to joining the European market the country joining has to become a NATO country. It means NATO would be in physical proximity on the border of Russia. There is a catch to this issue: Up till Merkel retirement the notion of expanding NATO beyond its present boundaries was not even considered worth public denial. But now a sixty year old unbalances Ursula von ben Leaden) and six feet tall conceit (     ) feel that the time has come when they should rule the European Union and not hesitate to deviate from what () called “Our Values”.  Our Values is an American catchphrase and not European.

Here comes Putin: quite intelligent, highly informed about modern politics, professionally he learned to analyze politicians and their perceptions and personality. He knew that the issue of NATO will be back when the old, experienced politicians will go. He has the wisdom of not having NATO directly on the borders of Russia and better to have a buffer zone. Yet, the novel inexperienced European politicians had no experience to make the distinctions between facts, reality, and truth. The fact is that Russia will not allow NATO to go beyond certain limits. The reality is that Europe will not expose itself and the world to an atomic war. The truth is that Putin is reacting and not initiating a crisis. What would those politicians do: discredit Putin, psychologize the crisis so the attention moves from the reality of the issue to some psychical verbiage, and could soak themselves in the luxury of mixing hate with love, fantasy with more fantasy, and best of all exercise power in their imagination.

Watching the desperation in the west to ward off reality, failing to come up with something veritable, brings to my mind Yesser Arafat (died in20120). He is a Palestinian leader of an organization that assumed the function and responsibility to stop Israel from setting roots in Palestine. He Psychologized himself and his movement, thus when they died they still died as heroes!!
