LET'S CHOOSE STUBB IF WE WANT WAR

We must choose between war and peace.

Presidential candidate Alexander Stubb wrote an essay for Helsingin Sanomat (HS 06.01.2024). Based on the text, it can be said that if we choose Stubb as the president of the Republic of Finland, we will choose war.

Stubb's text says that he is enchanted by Sofi Oksase and her insatiable hatred towards Russia. You even get the impression that Sofi has helped in writing the essay. Disgust, hatred and a bulletproof vest communist attitude towards our neighbor is complemented by the attitudes of a CIA agent.

Stubb is confident that the hatred of Russia created by years of media propaganda will carry. In his writing, he repeats the lie about the conflict in Georgia and downloads his ideas about Russia according to the full CIA manual.

Here's to us, a peace-loving nation, a president! If we want a war, let's elect this suplicist, pathological self-admiration and Russia-hating America-lover to the task. 

Compared to Stubb, Pekka Haavisto is, after all, a stable statesman who – unfortunately – has forgotten his words regarding this due to his obviously incompetent election machinery. 

Alexander Stubb's essay is meritorious. It removes the mask from his face once and for all. Finland as a colony under the United States is Stubb's dream. When about 15 US bases, troops and weapons are brought to the country, he can be satisfied as the commander-in-chief of the Finnish army subordinated to the US and NATO, the colonial lord. 

Strange situation. Only Pekka Haavisto, the man who signed the NATO agreement, can save Finland from the Stubb disaster. Our citizens are now forced to choose between a deadly plague and a slightly milder disease in order to survive. 

For once, I wish success to Helsingin Sanomat - I hope that as many as possible will read Stubb's confession of deep hatred towards our neighboring country. It is a good basis for the foreign policy of "independent" Finland, when the USA/NATO is planning a war to destroy Russia.

If and when Stubb and Haavisto face each other in the second round of the election, we will have to choose between war and peace. I choose peace.

  1. Good article, but yes, all those press candidates are sotanato presidents. Stubb is just the loudest and most eager to start a war, but yes the others too. At least they humbly submit to the will of the USA and the USA wants a war, then we will get one, because we will at least have the kind of pressure that will kindly start it.

  2. I won't vote for anyone in the upcoming elections, they're all rams. If Stubido wins, I hope that Russia will make the US bases in Finland smooth so that the other polvästs can see what they accomplished. It's just damn sad that this neighborly relationship with Russia destroyed by idiots. What good has the USA done for Finland? What about Russia? Who is leading? Who has ordered more icebreakers? What happened to Nokia Oy in the USA?

    2. Yesterday, by chance, I watched the YouTube channel Asian Ydin. In it, MV magazine's editor-in-chief Janus Putkonen and editor-in-chief Ilkka Tiainen discussed. The discussion was incredibly deep and focused, and especially the review of Finland's DCA agreement. Take a look at the conversation on YouTube, it takes just under an hour. That was Putkonen and Tiainen at their best.

  3. The real situation is that Stuppi doesn't give a damn about Finland. Is a complete marionette and a fucker. Hopes and does everything possible that the USA would attack Russia and conquer it and get all the natural wealth for itself. Finns, i.e. 90% of the people, are completely blind and stupid. They don't understand the whole of things, some not even after the damage has already happened.

  4. Swiss intelligence officer Jacques Baud has published a new book, "L'art de la guerre russe", the Russian art of war, which is currently being translated into English. A short excerpt from the book in English is on the Swiss site thepostil.com
    The book illuminates its subject specifically through the war in Ukraine, although examples are also taken from other conflicts. Baud compares Russian strategic thinking to contemporary Western thinking, and his assessment of the latter is blunt: it lacks both strategy and thinking.

    If that sounds funny, it might be if you're Chinese or Indian. If you are Finnish, your smile freezes.

    Among other things, Baud brings out with numerous examples how Ukraine has tried to find a reverse gear on several occasions, only to find that the West has removed Pak completely. Ukraine has been pushed to death without caring about the consequences. Once you've set off on the road to destruction, you can't turn back. This has been the fate of Ukraine and Finland may be next in line.

    When the West's ideological missile named A. Stubb is raised to the highest podium in Finland to preach hatred of Russia, the United States can charter as much military equipment as it deems necessary to Finland and with a few sparks ignite a hot conflict. In that play, Finland is assigned the role of victim.

    1. I was already thinking about that lack of reverse gear when Ukraine canceled its peace agreement with Russia in the March-April phase of 2022 and Niinistö had compared Ukraine's situation to Finland's winter war in the media. At the time, the treatment of Niinistö's comment in the media remained mostly at the level of emotion and mostly succeeded in awakening intergenerational war traumas in Finns and helped Finns' emotional identification with Ukrainians as victims bravely defending themselves from the Russian attack.

      You can indeed see similarities in the winter war and the situation in Ukraine, but there are also essential differences: Similarities can be seen at least in the reasons for the outbreak of the war:
      1) Russia had, at least to some extent, justified security concerns related to the fact that a foreign power hostile to it could use its neighboring country to attack it, and Russia/NL first tried to negotiate a solution to the situation.
      2) The media and political power were intertwined in a way that hindered the functioning of democracy. At the time of the outbreak of the Winter War, Eljas Erkko was both Finland's foreign minister and editor-in-chief of the country's largest newspaper, Helsingin Sanomat. Marshal Mannerheim, who had a long experience as an officer in the Russian army and strategic realism, was of the opinion that it would be reasonable for Finland to agree to the agreement, but Eljas Erko had a bigger megaphone at his disposal and he was also ready to lie that Finland had been promised sufficient military support and his position won .
      Differences: However, Finland was in a happier position than Ukraine at the time in that Finland had the opportunity to withdraw from this decision when it had become clear that continuing the war would only lead to unreasonable losses. Finland made a peace treaty despite the fact that France and England would have wanted Finland to continue its self-destructive war to weaken the Soviet Union. They promised Finland military aid in return. Ukraine had probably already become so deeply dependent on Western aid that it has not been able to break away from the war.

      Worrying in Finland's current situation, where "Finland's security is behind many locks" - and the keys are apparently locked in "security" somewhere beyond the reach of Finns, in Washington's safe, so that if some kind of armed conflict were to break out, how would we get out of it?

      1. Interesting analysis, thank you!

        I would pick up on this detail: when you write about the similarities between the Ukrainian war and the winter war, you say that Russia/NL had at least "somewhat justified" security concerns regarding Ukraine/Finland.

        In my opinion, the words "at least to some extent" could be removed without worry, at least with regard to the Finnish winter war, such a strong far-right current had held Finland in its grip throughout the 30s, and along with the politicians, the cultural elite also ramped up in Germany, drawing influences. Finnish politicians used such language about the Soviet Union that even the foreign diplomats in Helsinki were surprised.

        And yes, the security concerns caused by Ukraine to Russia were justified in my opinion. After all, the situation there was slipping all the time in a more nationalist direction and the neo-Nazi Azov Guard grew its muscles under the patronage of the oligarchs.

        Not to mention Ukraine's connections with the USA, Zelensky also visited the USA many times before the war broke out. (- Although it should probably be said that the war broke out already in 2014.)

  5. Jacques Baud is indeed a wise man, whose analyzes have been important to me as well, when the avalanche of anti-Russian propaganda was turned to full effect in the Finnish media in the winter of 2022. At that time, I searched in vain in the Finnish media for articles that would have equally shed light on the backgrounds of the conflict, and I noticed that already somewhere around 2016 The Finnish media had stopped reporting on the background of the conflict in Ukraine and I was really starting to worry. My intuition warned me that our media has, for some inexplicable reason, begun to prepare us for war as well. I felt that we were being prepared to sacrifice everything - and for what? "European values", but how do they manifest in practice in the actions of our power elite?

    I was grateful for my language skills, because I could search the Internet for a more versatile treatment of the crisis in Ukraine and found e.g. Jacques Baud's interview, which clarified my situation. In particular, I was left thinking about his sentence that the goals of the Western countries are currently a little twisted, because they no longer aim to aim for anything good, but the aim is to weaken Russia.

    1. When I think about these presidential candidates and their parties, what do they have to offer their citizens? The coalition's traditional carrot has been to promise to take care of Finland's economy so that the foreign debt would no longer increase and money would remain to run the welfare state. - Now the coalition government has given up such ambitions, the debt of both the citizens and the state has only grown, and yet the welfare state is being dismantled: debt is taken on in order to finance the continuation of the war in Ukraine and to pay our share of the armament with which the USA could enter the war hosted by Stubbs against Russia. Some false flag provocation is probably already prepared, which will be used to get Russia to attack the innocent Suomi-para.

      The Persians' carrot was Finland's independence, but now it's not even worth talking about, how they have abandoned that ideal in favor of hatred of Russia.

      What about Haavisto and the Greens? The search for a balance between man and the environment and sustainable development is of course a beautiful idea, but even the greens seem to have sacrificed these goals for their ideological need to selectively follow a "human rights-based foreign policy" in the American style, meaning that the harshest economic sanctions and collective punishment of citizens is a permitted method when the aim is to displace the citizens of other countries the political leadership chosen for itself, which has been selected as a target by the declaration of "human rights organizations" funded by the USA and the EU.
      Germany's greens have become a true war party, and in Finland's greens, Heidi Hautala has long been known for her deeply hostile attitude towards President Putin.

      Final result:
      Stubbi - an armed attack on Russia?
      Haavisto: endless economic sanctions in the hope that they will change power in "authoritarian Russia" - as if isolation and economic misery had ever made any country develop in a more liberal direction.

      As a result of all this Western manoeuvring, Russia has been forced to develop only in an even more militaristic direction. Yes, Haavisto still seems to be the lesser evil.

      1. I never stop wondering why it is even imagined that anything can be achieved with economic sanctions. For example, the United States has imposed an economic embargo on tiny Cuba (approx. 12 million inhabitants) for more than 60 years, because it is a "security threat" to the United States. Cuba has almost no energy or raw material resources of its own, not to mention many other economic commodities, no decent production capacity, nothing. Almost everything has to be imported from abroad. There, however, it continues to push its own different way, despite the hatred of the "gringos".

        If even Cuba's economy (which is on the brink) doesn't fall under the economic sanctions of a great power, then how on earth would the economy of Russia, the largest country in the world (by area), do it? Russia is completely self-sufficient in terms of raw materials, energy and almost all other matters related to the economy. On the contrary, Russia acts as an exporter of raw materials and energy. 2022 Russian economy grew by 2,5% (source World Bank), last year more than 3% and the forecast for this year is up to 5%! Western sanctions have directed Russia's economy to the rest of the world and to the homeland, where there is now a labor shortage. Russia is doing better financially than before the military operation in Ukraine.

        It is different on the European side. Almost all of Europe is in an economic depression. Inflation is high and exports are faltering. The reason is not "The Putin" or Russia, contrary to what the fake media in the West claims, but only and only the economic sanctions imposed by the EU on Russia (as well as the "help" of the ally USA, e.g. by blowing up gas pipelines), which have hit the imposers themselves.

        I can't prove it, but I guess that the US plan for Ukraine in 2013-14 already included the destabilization of the economy of Europe (i.e. the economic competitor of the US) and the joining of Finland and Sweden to NATO. At least they have gone exactly according to the script. Only the regime change in Russia has failed completely.

  6. Let's choose Stubb if we want to complain. We choose: No. 1 Bottle cap rage 2 Yard rage 3 Neighbor rage 4 Dog waste rage 5 Grave candle rage 6 Garden waste rage 7 Road rage 8 Climate rage 9 Rage that other people exist.
    After all, this is the nine color straight that our presidential candidates are.

    Best regards, Piia Teittinen- Laine.

  7. Many who see things "our way" do not vote because the candidates are worse than each other. For the same reason, I consider it important to vote. In one election, I voted for Pekka Haavisto because I considered him a better option than Sauli Niinistö, even though otherwise I would have voted for Haavisto almost last of all possible candidates. If Haavisto had been elected at that time, things could hardly have gone any worse than they did under Niinistö's leadership.

  8. Stubido is in a class of its own for selling our country as a battlefield. Haavisto, again in his liberality, brings more lgbd (whatever other letters there are) weaponism to Finland, you should read the WHO reports and study material on this matter, which our Population Alliance puts in the study materials. If that doesn't make children crazy, then what will. In addition, Haavisto is a lying marionette of the West. Hullu-Aho is a case in itself in Russia's anger and lust for war. In their election promises, Persuthan promised to close the borders, which they managed to implement. Messed up anyway, I guess. Mr. Be. Rehn, on the other hand, has been driving Finland's monetary policy into the capitalists' pockets for a long time, i.e. he has sold his soul long ago in order to weaken the conditions of Finns and increase the enrichment of the rich (it's worth studying his political history. Where has he been in deciding who has gotten richer) the same spending and war do coming also with him. Aaltola doesn't have enough competence to fill the boots, a lying puppet of the West, who should get some speed from the parliament to understand even a little bit of foreign policy, the war with this man will also come. Urpolainen is a puppet of the EU and thus of the West. A person who doesn't care about his own people, pursues his own interests, is greedy for money and sick of the title. Even if you don't want war, you won't do anything because the federal government forces you to. Exits to the back left and goes behind the others. War will come with this too. Harkimo stumbles and can't lead, he's just looking for publicity with this act, that's all. Andersson could perhaps be the one who thinks about this nation, but he is not strong enough to change the interests of the West and, as we have noticed, he sympathizes only when he does not dare to oppose. Besides, he also drives these lgbd things as well as humu-pekka. There will be a war with all of these and the people will be driven into misery. I'm going to vote for Väyryse, because there really isn't anyone running who would take the side of Finns and Finland in any matter.

  9. I'm going to abstain. All candidates are equally hopeless. That is, US puppets leading the war.

    In fact, I already stopped voting after the 2012 municipal elections.

    If you could make a difference by voting, ordinary people would never have been given the right to vote.

    It is no coincidence that public schools teaching literacy began to become common at the same time as universal and equal suffrage. When the people were given the right to vote, it was necessary to ensure that the people voted correctly. That's why people had to know how to read newspapers.

    Propaganda has developed particularly strongly during the last hundred years. I recommend everyone to read Jacques Ellul's book "Propaganda: The Formation of Men's Attitudes".

  10. Is it necessary to show Mr. Stubb's face in this publication as well?
    I can't bear to see that grin, everywhere, even on the TV.
    Causes the same shivers of disgust as Mr. Niinistö's scathing face image.

  11. I don't support Stubb, but Haavisto is just the same war-nato hawk. The man was unable to condemn Israel's genocide in Gaza, but the man condemned Russia's actions in Ukraine when he came. He has never condemned Ukraine's attacks on civilians. I'm not voting for either.

  12. Paavo Väyrynen's criminal complaint about the missing supporter cards was not even investigated. It would have been nice to know if my card even arrived. I am going to vote and write on the ballot: Paavo Väyrynen. It would be nice news if there were tens of thousands of rejected votes and all of them read "Paavo Väyrynen".

      3. As for Andersson and the entire Left Alliance, there is nothing to brag about either. As a party, Vasuri did not take a position on joining NATO, i.e. the "attack alliance of united capitalists". So they joined the military alliance of their class enemy! Incomprehensibly.

        After all, the small-town "communist party" (in the political fringe, i.e. outside the parliament) realizes the direction NATO is in and rejects it. However, they too have swallowed the CIA's Ukraine narrative as it is. There is probably only one real representative of the people left in Parliament (MP Anna Kontula) who understands the "couplet plot". After all, there were eight upright people in the previous parliament. Unbelievably little too.

  15. No no and no. None of these candidates represent Finns. All candidates have accepted the current contracts of the Yankees treasury. How can such persons present something believable to save Finland if the situation demands it. Who can trust their word anymore?

    1. Of course, the elections are fair because it doesn't matter who you vote for. Every vote goes to NATO. The only small "spot of beauty" is that YLE does Stubbido's election work with taxpayers' money.

  17. Today, Hesari posted on his website the presidential candidates' election machine answers to the question whether the president should seek dialogue with Russia, even if the war continues. Haavisto, Stubb and Harkimo had Jyrki's negative position. The others, with the exception of Halla-aho, "somewhat disagreed" and referred to the EU guidelines, which according to them exclude the possibility of discussions. Li Andersson even resented those EU leaders who try to maintain one-on-one relations and "play in Putin's pocket".

    In the current situation, the most important issue within the president's jurisdiction in these elections is the relationship between Finland and Russia and the possibility of a peaceful foreign policy related to it. Pekka Haavisto has a long foreign policy experience and also maritime skills. However, on the Russia issue, he is no different from the other candidates in any way, and it is difficult for me to see his voting as a stand for peace. There is not a single viable candidate among the candidates. However, if such an end-of-the-world scenario threatened that Haavisto and Halla-aho would be facing each other in the second round, then I would like my vote to go to Haavisto.

  18. Stubb should be dropped in the first round. In the second round it is more difficult. the paradox is that if you want to tactic Peka for president, it might be worth voting for halla-aho, so that together they would knock Stubb out of the second round. Pekka will win Halla-aho as surely as he will lose to Stubb.

  19. On the first day of early voting, I was able to bypass the selection of a carrier of the deadly plague and a slightly milder disease than the others by marking an X next to the candidate's number. It's like a competition to see who can declare the neighbor/Putin hatred the most and the worst. In Tuesday night's panel, Harkimo's strict and loud talk about peace sounded almost like harassment. For others, the most important thing seems to be the declaration of hatred and excessive investment in military equipment. The candidates are really good, but their views are not suitable for a statesman. Let's see what situation we get into in the second round.
