Summary
Former GCHQ Officer Alex Thomson discusses the Anglo-American establishment’s fixation on Ukraine as the underbelly of the World Island and how it is not in the interest now of either the West or the Russians to de-escalate. The logic of the expansionist system on both sides is that they’re more interested in a Third World War or an eternal penumbra of Doomsday as opposed to the return of a Westphalian order. There is not a better world solution coming from Russia or China where there also exists world domination-minded elements. Very few national leaders remain who are willing and able to oppose globalism, there is an inevitable trend toward world government. He’s optimistic about being able to survive the Algorithm Ghetto via parallel structures and also comments on prophecy, information operations, and antisemitic trolls.

About Alex Thomson
After learning what today’s British Establishment was all about at Rugby School and Cambridge, Alex Thomson served in a Christian mission in the former Soviet Union and went on to spend the rest of his twenties as a GCHQ officer.
He moved to the Netherlands aged thirty in 2009 and has spent the last decade more quietly as a translator and interpreter and a researcher of networked evil.
Since 2014, Alex has presented his emerging findings via the Eastern Approaches brand on UK Column News, where his specialisms are Europe, geopolitics, religious affairs and constitutional matters.
He maintains the Eastern Approaches channel, mostly of careful readings of key documents indicating the scope of corruption of British and Western public life.

| 0:12.0 | Thank you very much, Woodvoy. It's a great pleasure to be with you. |
| 0:15.0 | Since this is your first time on, and I'm sure it's the first time some people are seeing you or hearing you. Could you just |
| 0:21.1 | briefly tell us a little bit about yourself? I grew up in a Christian family in the UK, |

| 0:40.3 | I've just written a piece on that for UK column.org |
| 0:44.3 | actually about the, a fairly dark theme, |
| 0:47.3 | the suicide of my housemaster 30 years ago this month, |
| 0:50.3 | and reflections on that. |
| 0:52.3 | But it enabled me as an experience to get a different |
| 0:58.2 | view of human nature than most people are able to. And a profound study of the classics, |
| 1:03.8 | we were even given philosophy. That school, a fairly rare opportunity in a British school. |
| 1:08.7 | Then I went off to Cambridge University studying obscure dead languages. |
| 1:12.6 | The course title was Anglo-Saxon, Norse, and Celtic. I then went off to the former Soviet Union, |
| 1:19.6 | specifically the Republic of Georgia for a year as a student missionary with the International Federation of Evangelical Students, I-FES, or IFES. |
| 1:28.2 | The American listeners will know the term in diversity better. |
| 1:30.8 | It's just the association of Christian unions across different campuses and countries. |
| 1:35.4 | I came back from that and was recruited by GCHQ, which is Britain's sister agency to NSA. |
| 1:41.9 | It's the Signals Intelligence Agency, so it does the electronic and communications eavesdropping. |
