More quotes by Andre Vltchek
Since the beginning, the US presidents (all of European stock, of course), had been promoting slavery, extermination campaigns against the native population of North America, barbaric wars of aggression against Mexico, and other Latin American countries, the Philippines, etc. Has anything changed now? I highly doubt it.
Andre Vltchek
The outraged citizens of Indonesia - lawyers, doctors, engineers, scientists - should be speaking up they should be shouting. And of course, the voices of farmers and workers, their terrible stories, should be read and heard from the pages of independent magazines and blogs, from YouTube and independent films.
Andre Vltchek
The majority of Arab people would side with Russia and China, not with the West. And they'd throw their 'elites' groomed in and by the West, straight out the window.
Andre Vltchek
There is absolutely nothing democratic about the global arrangement through which the West has been ruling over the rest of the world for decades and centuries.
Andre Vltchek
The truth has to be unveiled. If the West insists, if it keeps pushing, the battles have to be fought. And they will be fought.
Andre Vltchek
There is no regard for human lives, or local national interests. It is because the West, despite its hypocritical rhetoric (political correctness) does not really consider non-whites and non-Christians as human beings.
Andre Vltchek
We have to remember that the quality of medical care in Indonesia is on par with Kenya or Tanzania, not with Malaysia or Thailand, and that the system is totally corrupt, financially and morally, and would never allow anything 'public', or 'free'.
Andre Vltchek
When Chinese people want liberal reforms, they are delivered. When they want more Communism and an epic fight against corruption, like now, China's government immediately reacts. It is powerful and democratic, although a very specific and complex arrangement.
Andre Vltchek
Please just look at those Indonesian cities: Jakarta, Surabaya, Medan... are there any other cities on earth, of that size, with such an absolute chronic lack of culture, and institutions that are supposed to make people think? Like theatres, archives, grand libraries, concert halls, art cinemas, progressive bookstores... There is nothing here.
Andre Vltchek
The only reason so many are so pissed off at the US is because they see North America as promoting a 'bad deal' for its own masses, not because it is ruining the rest of the world!
Andre Vltchek
The forces of internationalism, humanism and solidarity will have to be victorious, or soon there will be nothing left of the human race.
Andre Vltchek
With Russia, it is almost similar to China: people there have had it up to here with the West! The Russian people suffered immensely from Western imperialism.
Andre Vltchek
Russia and China have become two great allies. They'd never be divided as they were during the Cold War Days. Russia and China together cannot be defeated: militarily, economically or morally.
Andre Vltchek
Do understand: Chinese people are brilliant the West cannot fool them.
Andre Vltchek
Once elected, the President 'forgets' all about his promises.
Andre Vltchek
We understand that a thriving democracy would not be achieved if the people were still uneducated, and that, to educate them, the country has to pay a very high price.
Andre Vltchek
Tens of millions of Russian people died, fighting all sorts of Western expansionism. They defeated Nazism. They helped to liberate much of our world from colonialism. Of course the West never forgave Russia for fighting the epic battles against its expansionism and colonialism.
Andre Vltchek
There can be no democracy in a country where people are uneducated and do not understand their own position in the society and the world. People 'rule' only if they can make 'educated decisions'. Democracy means 'rule of the people'.
Andre Vltchek
The Chinese government would yield to the pressure from its people: it would be forced to give orders to fight - to defend its motherland!
Andre Vltchek
Chinese people are indignant. Indignant! For decades, despite everything, they tried to make peace with the West. They are in fact the most peaceful big nation on Earth and what do they get in return? They get insults, provocations and intimidation.
