    "Troops from four Nato countries have marched for the first time in Russia's annual parade to mark victory in WWII.

    Soldiers from the US Britain, France, Poland and the US marched alongside Russian troops through Moscow's Red Square. German Chancellor Angela Merkel was among some two dozen world leaders attending the 65th anniversary.

    Along with 10,000 Russian troops, the parade also included tanks, ballistic missiles and a fly-past of 127 aircraft".

    Quite a contrast from the cold war era.

    Who else will be joining the parade next year? China?

    Did you miss the part were it's the 65th anniversary of the end of the 2nd World War. Why would China be marching in the 66th anniversary?

    How is this a conspiracy? I think its quite honorable for Russia to allow it, it was a world war after all.

    Possibly Russian only, considering this year is a milestone anniversary...not just the annual one.

    I thought it was promoting a annual parade.

    Invading a block just so you can have a parade seems a tad extreme.
    ill dig up this thread again. :p

    You'll ignore your mistake and leap onto the next piece of proof.

    Promoting globalism.

    You probably have a major issue with St Patricks Day parades so :pac:

    So having a parade in Moscow with a few Americans and British in it = globalism. :rolleyes:

    Having a former foe take part in an annual military propaganda stint is a different story.

    :confused: I'm pretty sure Russia, the US, Britain, France and Poland were on the same side in defeating the Nazis in WWII.

    Peace is war; or, war is peace.

    World peace is just a side aim. They will firstly achieve world peace, so they can do what they've always wanted to do, which is tattoo your baby's forehead with a barcode.

    There was "peace" in the former Stalinist USSR controlled by fear and suppression. One was fearful of stepping out of line or speaking against the system. Free speach was denied.

    The very same stalinist suppression is happening again today and its all in the name of "fighting terror" and keeping global peace and security. One only has to look at the Airline industry and all these recent false flag events that have a knock on effect on Global travel.

    Today some guy in the UK got convicted for threatening to blow up an regional Airport on a light hearted Twitter message.

    That same guy will now have a criminal record and more than likely be on the international terrorist list and could possibly be banned from entering the US and other nations once his globally approved electronic passport is swiped.

    That's not peace.

    You're basically claiming something is going to happen because something unrelated happened in the past. And the evidence for it is a guy sating that countries should work towards peace instead of blowing the crap out of each other?
