Coles Putin's World War: Russia's Covert Operations to Destroy the West at Village Green Shopping Centre in Vernon, BC

Russia is threatening the West with World War III, even though it has already been waging it for years. As its weapons, the Kremlin uses agents of chaos, a covert operation, fake priests spreading hate speech, hackers recruited from prison, and a public's gullibility. Jessikka Aro's new book about the Kremlin's global war presents the secret operations of Putin's intelligence services in detail. The book takes the reader on a breath-taking journey from the lobby of the Helsinki Courts of Appeal to the controversial Bronze Soldier statue in Tallinn, from the media center run by the Russian military intelligence from Berlin to the Russian troll factory that operated in Ghana in West Africa. At the heart of this book is the story of a Polish flight that crashed in Smolensk, Russia, in 2010, killing all onboard, including the Polish president and his wife, and many other high-ranking members of the Polish government, the details of which are obscured by a successful wave of Kremlin-launched information operations. At the time, there was no public awareness of Russia's practice of information-psychological warfare, nor knowledge about special service operations abroad with the aim of gaining political influence. Anyone trying to address such phenomenon in 2010 would have been labeled as an alarmist and a conspiracy theorist. But today, such activities are seen in a different light. Through Aro's persistent investigations, readers will gain new understanding of Russia's hybrid war, a series of relentless attacks to undermine the West.
