An interesting article about the 1984 BBC film “Threads” can be found here -> ‘Threads’ Was A British Television Event That Messed Up An Entire Generation. I remember watching this on television and how the imagery stuck, having burned itself into my sub-conscious.

This kind of movie should never have, and should never again be allowed to be made. It’s damaging to the human mind on a widespread scale. It’s terrorism. It’s trauma-based mind control.
It’s also nothing more than anti-soviet propaganda. Rest assured, the propaganda went both ways, the Soviet people were told the same thing, in reverse. NATO of course fits integrally.

THE “COLD WAR” – A PSYCHOLOGICAL OPERATION

On the bookshelf in the den of my Mothers post-divorce home, was a paperback book called ‘None Dare Call It Conspiracy’ written by author and John Birch Society spokesman Gary Allen.

I remember being stunned to read therein that during the “Cold War”, the sale of armored tanks to the Soviet Union by the U.S. was strictly forbidden. However, we could sell tank parts, such as treads, wheels, etc. This single most prescient point opened my eyes to what my cynical young mind had long suspected. Murderers and psychopaths run this planet. The video below sums up what I read in “None Dare Call It Conspiracy”.
Absolutely AMAZING what one can find on YouTube.

“This 1969 film, remastered 30 years later, documents in detail how our nation fought communism even as powerful individuals in government and business financed it, profiting from both sides”.

If you don’t get what I am pointing out here, you may not understand a lot of world history, much less the current conflagration in Ukraine.
