In order to better understand the Rothschild obsession with Ukraine and its hatred of Russia and its focus on the  destruction of Russia, we need  to go back a bit in history  understand the first 4 points above.

1 Rothschild-Russian Rivalry in the 19th century

Formal ties between the nations started in 1553. Russia and Britain became allies against in the early-19th century.  They became enemies in the 1850s, and rivals in the Great Game for control of central Asia in the latter half of the 19th century. They allied again in World Wars.  The two countries again became enemies during the Cold War period (1947–1989). From 1820 to 1907, geopolitical disputes led to a gradual deterioration in Anglo-Russian relations. The Rothschild network in Britain turned increasingly hostile to Russia. The result was a long-standing rivalry in Eurasia. For decades, the British balance-of-power alliance strategy in Europe had been built around support for Ottoman Turkey’s empire, as part of what British strategists called the Great Game- blocking the emergence of a strong and industrialized Russia. Support for Turkey, which controlled the vital Dardanelles access to warm waters for Russia, had been a vital part of British geopolitics until that time. Russia was especially interested in getting a warm water port that would enable its navy to operate all-year round, as in winter; its ports would freeze up.  Getting access out of the Black Sea into the Mediterranean was a goal, which meant access through the Straits controlled by the Ottomans. The Russian pressures on the Ottoman Empire continued, leaving Britain and France (the key Rothschild countries) to ally with the Ottomans and push back against Russia in the Crimean War of 1853. Anglo-Russian rivalries grew steadily over Central Asia during the so-called “of the late 19th century. Russia desired warm-water ports on the while Britain wanted to prevent Russian troops from gaining a potential invasion route to India.   Seeing a threat to India, Britain came close to threatening war but both sides backed down and the matter was settled by diplomacy. The British signed a deal with Russia in 1902 that resolved their major disputes. After that those two countries work together on friendly terms. In May, 1881, Russia passed the May Laws intended to restrict the number of Jobs that Jews could get in the Russian government. They were over-represented in the government. These laws allowed the Jews to get jobs in proportion to their population numbers. The Rothschild’s began widespread terrorist activities against the government. When the government cracked down, many Jews fled Russia for Europe and America. The Rothschild’s imposed financial sanctions and cut off any new k\loans to Russia. This exodus of Jews from Russia inspired Edmond Rothschild of the French house to direct many olf these Russian Jews to Palestine. This was the birth of Zionism!

Then, in 1902, Russia built the Trans-Siberian railway. The most ambitious project initiated in Russia at that time had been the construction of a railroad linking Russia in the west to Vladivostok in the Far East-the Trans-Siberian railway project, a 9 , 000 km- long undertaking, which would transform the entire economy of Russia. This was the most ambitious railway project in the whole world. A central part of this plan was to develop peaceful and productive relations with China, independent of British control of China’s ports and sea-lanes, through the overland openings which the Siberian rail lines would facilitate. As Finance Minister from 1897 until the 1905 Russian revolution, Count Sergei Witte transformed Russia’s prospects dramatically from its former role as “bread basket” to British grain-trading houses into a potentially modern industrial nation. Railroads became the largest industry in the country and were inducing a transformation of the entire range of relate steel and other sectors.

Britain energetically opposed the economic policies of Witte and the Trans-Siberian railway project with every means at its disposal, including attempts to influencer reactionary Russian landed nobility linked to the British grain trade. A British Foreign Office official declared, “This line will not be one of the greatest trade routes that the world has ever known, but it will become a political weapon in the hands of the Russians whose power and significance it is difficult to estimate. It will make a single nation out f Russia, for whom it will no longer be necessary to pass through the Dardanelles or through the Suez Canal. It will give her an economic independence, through which she will become stronger than she has ever dreamed of becoming.

It took a series of wars and crisis, but following the unsuccessful British attempts to block the rail project, which was completed in 1903, Russia was badly humiliated in the Russo-Japanese War of 1905, in which Britain had pushed its vassal to attack Russia. In 1905, British agents brought about the suspiciously timed 1905 revolution in Russia, which failed. When the World War broke out in 1914, Britain, Russia, Japan and China all declared war on Germany, and cooperated in defeating and dividing up its Imperial holdings. The alliance lasted till the February 1917 Revolution in Russia overthrew the Czar.  However When the Bolsheviks under Lenin took power in November, they made peace with Germany—this was in effect surrender with massive loss of territory. Russia ended all diplomatic and trade relations with Britain, and repudiated all debts to the Rothschild banks in London and Paris. The Britain restored trade relations in 1921. In the early-21st century, relations became strained. Since 2014, relations have grown increasingly unfriendly due to the (2014–present) the war   in Ukraine The two countries share a history of intense espionage activity against each other.  Since the 19th century, England has been a popular destination for Russian political and wealthy fugitives from the world.

Russia’s business tycoons developed strong ties with London financial institutions in the 1990s after the   coup against Gorbachev in 1991. Both the families looted Russia in the decade of the 1990s. The majority of the oligarchs were Jewish, and all acted as nominees for the British Rothschild’s.

It was only with Putin becoming President of Russia in 2000 that things began to change. Putin is a nationalist, and he began taking back whatever was stolen by these Rothschild thieves. Within a year, London realized that Putin is going to cause problems for them. By 2004, the US and the Rockefeller family came to the same conclusion. In March 2007, Putin’s speech at the Munich Security Conference was the turning point in the relations between Russia and the West. In 2008, the West tried to destabilize Russia through the short-lived war in Georgia. Then, came the Ukraine coup in 2014. In 2022, the Ukraine war broke out. Following the relations between the two collapsed entirely; the United put a ban on Russian   media outlets, seized the assets of the Russian Central Bank, wrote recalled its citizens and severed all business ties with Russia. Russia retaliated with its own sanctions against the UK and accused it of involvement in attacks against Russia.  The UK is one of the largest donors of financial and military aid to Ukraine and was the first country in Europe to donate lethal military aid. Besides, the 2 Rothschild countries-Britain and France – are even more actively involved on the ground than American military in Ukraine.

2 Mackinder’s Heartland Theory -1904

 Napoleon once said that “to know a nation’s geography was to know its foreign policy “

The British Empire and its overlord-the Rothschild’s were anxious and worried about the effect of the Trans-Siberian rail project on the unification of Russia and Eurasia. These worries led to a report that appeared in the Geographical Journal Vol. 23, No. 4, April 1904. The author of this report was Halford Mackinder. Many consider him to be the father of modern geopolitics.

Map of the Heartland Theory, as published in “The Geographical Pivot of History” by Halford Mackinder in 1904.

The Geographical Pivot of History” is an article submitted by in 1904  that advances his heartland theory.  In this article, Mackinder extended the scope of the article to encompass the entire globe. He defined Eurasia as the “world island” and its “heartland” as the area east of the south of the west of the and north of the Danube River to its strategic location and natural resources, Mackinder argued that whoever controlled the “heartland” could control the world.Until recently, the leading analysts of geopolitics have debated whether land power was more significant than sea power and what specific region of Eurasia is vital to gain control over the entire continent. One of the most prominent, Harold Mackinder, pioneered the discussion early this century with his successive concepts of the Eurasian `pivot area’ (which was said to include all of Siberia and much of Central Asia) and, later, of the Central-East European `heartland’ as the vital springboards for the attainment of continental domination. He popularized his heartland concept by the famous dictum:

“Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland;

“Who rules the Heartland commands the World-Island;

“Who rules the World-Island commands the world

The Heartland lies at the center of the World Island, stretching from Eastern Europe to Russia’s Far East, and includes Central Asia. Any power which controlled the World-Island would control well over 50% of the world’s resources. The Heartland’s size and central position made it the key to controlling the World-Island. Mackinder held that effective political domination of the Heartland by a single power had been unattainable in the past because: The Heartland was protected from sea power by ice to the north and mountains and deserts to the south. Previous land invasions from east to west and vice versa were unsuccessful because lack of efficient transportation made it impossible to assure a continual stream of men and supplies.

Strategic Importance of Eastern Europe

  In Mackinder’s view, Eastern Europe is the key region which empowers the land empire claiming the Heartland. Within this geopolitical framework, it can be argued that the Russian claim over Ukraine is not a mere land grab, but an attempt to substantially increase Heartland’s manpower and resources for further expansion beyond currently defined borders. Russia’s defeat in Ukraine is thus crucial for preventing a new global war and subjugation of the wider free world by the resurgent power in the Heartland, along with its geostrategic allies. The Heartland is immensely rich in many types of resources- food, energy, ores, sufficient to organize large-scale industries and formidable manpower. These Heartland opportunities were eventually exploited by the Russian Empire, which replaced the Mongolian, and was later resurrected as the Soviet Union.  Mackinder reaffirmed the validity of all his previous assessments, concluding that the Heartland is “the greatest natural fortress on earth,” being itself able to attack in any direction. The vital question was how to secure control for the Heartland. This question may seem pointless, since in 1904 Russia had ruled most of the area from the Volga to Eastern for centuries. But throughout the 19th century (Napoleon) and 20th century (Hitler), the West European powers had combined, usually unsuccessfully, to invade and take over Russia.

The Russian Empire was huge but socially, politically and technologically backward – i.e. inferior in “virility, equipment and organization”.

He outlined the following ways in which the Heartland might become a springboard for global domination in the twentieth century:

Successful invasion of Russia by a Western European nation (most probably Mackinder believed that the introduction of railways had removed the Heartland’s invulnerability to land invasion. As Eurasia began to be covered by an extensive network of railroads, there was an excellent chance that a powerful continental nation could extend its political control over the gateway to the Eurasian landmass. In Mackinder’s words, “Who rules East Europe commands the Heartland.”

A Russo-German Alliance

Before 1917 both countries were ruled by monarchs, and both could have been attracted to an alliance against the democratic powers of Western Europe. Germany would have contributed to such an alliance its formidable army and its large and growing sea power. One of Mackinder’s personal objectives was to warn Britain that its traditional reliance on sea power would become a weakness as improved land transport opened up the Heartland for invasion and/or Industrialization. A more modern development that may suggest that the Heartland theory still has some substance is the growth of Russia’s oil exports through pipelines, and China’s BRI project. Heartland theory implies that the world island is full of resources to be exploited. “Potentially, the most dangerous scenario would be a grand coalition of China, Russia, and perhaps Iran, an `anti-hegemonic’ coalition united not by ideology but by complementary grievances. It would be reminiscent in scale and scope of the challenge posed by the Sino-Soviet bloc, though this time China would likely be the leader and Russia the follower. Averting this contingency, however remote it may be, will require a display of U.S. geostrategic skill on the western, eastern, and southern perimeters of Eurasia simultaneously.”
