In case you don’t know this one, here’s a warning from former Soviet dissident Vladimir Bukovsky (I’ve made just one small change).
“It is really puzzling to me that having just buried one monster – the Soviet Union – another remarkably similar one – the European Union – is being built.
The Soviet Union was governed by 15 unelected people who appointed each other and who were not accountable to anyone. The EU is governed by 28 people who also appoint each other, meet in secret and are not accountable to anyone and whom we cannot sack.
One might say the EU has an elected parliament; well the Soviet Union had a sort of parliament too. The Supreme Soviet who just rubber-stamped Politbureau decisions pretty much like the EU does and where speaking time is restricted to political groupings and with a time limit of just one minute per speaker.
In the EU there are 100,000’s of Eurocrats with their huge salaries, pensions, servants, privileges and lifelong immunity from prosecution, simply shuffling from one position to another, no matter what they do or fail to do. Is this not exactly what life in the Soviet Union used to be too?
The Soviet Union was created by coercion and very often by military occupation; the EU is being created, admittedly not by armed force, but by coercion and economic bullying.
In order to continue to exist the Soviet Union spread itself further and further. The moment it stopped spreading it started to collapse and I suspect the same is true of the EU.
We were told that the purpose of the Soviet Union was to create a new historic entity the Soviet peoples and we must forget our nationality, our ethnic traditions and customs. The same thing appears to be true of the EU as they don’t want you to be British or French, but want you to be a new historic entity, a European, to suppress all your national feelings and live as a multi-nation community.
After 73 years the same system in the Soviet Union resulted in more ethnic conflict than anywhere in the whole world. In the Soviet Union one of the grand purposes was the destruction of the nation state and that is exactly what I observe Europe is doing today. Brussels intends to absorb national states so they should cease to exist.
Corruption was built into the Soviet Union system from the top down and so it is in the EU. The very same endemic corruption activity that destroyed the old Soviet Union thrives now in the EU. Those who oppose it or expose it are silenced or punished – nothing changes.
In the Soviet Union we have a gulag. I think we have a gulag in the EU as well – political correctness. When anyone tries to speak their mind or air views that differ from those approved on race or gender they are ostracised. This is the beginning of the gulag, the beginning of your loss of your freedom.
In the Soviet Union they told us we needed a federal state to avoid war. In the EU they are telling us exactly the same thing. In short the same ideology underpins both systems.
The EU is an old-style soviet model presented in western guise. But again like the Soviet Union, the EU has within itself the very seed to its own demise. Unfortunately when it collapses, and it will, we will be left with mass destruction bringing huge ethnic and economic problems.
The old Soviet Union system was incapable of reform. So is the EU. But there is an alternative to being ruled by these two dozen self-appointed officials in Brussels ……… it is called independence.
You don’t have to accept what they have planned for you. After all, you have not asked if you wanted to join.
Remember I have already lived in your future and it didn’t work.”
Vladimir Bukovsky
absolutely correct – the EU-SSR Brussels Politburo are gradually moving towards a new European Federated States of the New Holy Roman Empire. EU Kommie Kommizzars should go and sit “dans le ecke und fornicate with themselves”. they are as much use as teats on a bull, or an ashtray on a motorcycle, and they will ruin Europe eventually. the Euro currency will eventually fail. Greece, Cyprus will possibly fall out of the Eurozone, and even Germany me bring back their old currency, the Deutche Marke.
