Victoria (Nuland)'s Secret

By Donald A. Smith, PhD. Using my lyrics and AI tools, I created a song sung by regime change architect Victoria Nuland. She's "the golden girl of the US warmongering neoconservative and liberal interventionist movements."

I’ve got a secret tucked away,
In Foggy Bottom's dim byways.   
A militia here, a coup or two,
And quite a few regime redos.

Democracy? Oh, it’s such a bore—
We choose their leaders, as before.
In Ukraine I whispered, “Yats is the guy", 
Then I watched the bullets fly.

[Chorus]
Victoria’s Secret, shhh, don’t tell!
I stir the pot, then wish them well.
I light the match, then pass the blame,
And history forgets my very name!
Iraq to Kyiv, watch me glide,
With the C.I.A. right by my side —
A trail of wreckage, hush, discreet —
That’s Victoria’s Secret. Ain't it neat?

Please don't think it cockamamie 
that I advised good old Dick Cheney,
The Iraq war? That was my brief.
No W.M.D.s, no 9/11 link, what's your beef?

Oh Libya? That splendid mess!
We brought them “freedom,” more or less.
Syria? We tried so hard,
To swap Assad for a loyal guard.

[Chorus]
Victoria’s Secret, shhh, don’t squeal!
I smile while turning the arms deal wheel.
A thinktank here, a gas firm there,
Some talking points and quite a flair.
The press just nods, the drones just hum,
The peace they dream of never comes—
Just chaos wrapped up nice and sweet —
That’s Victoria’s Secret. Ain't it neat? 

I brought cookies to the Maidan crowd—
Sugar for a coup, how quaint, how proud!
And when the phone line caught my truth,
They still called me a saint.
“F*** the E.U.,” I said with glee,
But the I.M.F. still backed me.

Now statues fall and empires sway,
While I jet off to holidays.
I set the board, then cleared the scene —
A queen in boots, not Maybelline.

And when the world is bathed in smoke,
I’ll write a book and make a joke.
Oh darling, never call it war —
Call it “interests” that we adore.

[Chorus]
Victoria’s Secret, now you know,
The puppet strings, the P.R. show.
I architect the world’s decline —
With State Department sweetened wine.
No medal shines, no tear is shed,
Just talking heads and nations bled.
But don’t you fret, I’m so discreet—
That’s Victoria’s Secret. Ain't it neat?

        
Victoria Nuland's Secret

Senior U.S. diplomats, journalists, academics and Secretaries of Defense say:
The U.S. provoked Russia in Ukraine

U.S. hypocrisy about the war in Ukraine is absolutely stunning, given that it invaded and bombed countries all over the world (e.g., Iraq) for flimsy reasons, often allying with Muslim extremists (e.g., Afghanistan in 80s, Serbia, Libya, and Syria). The U.S. occupies 1/3 of Syria (the parts with oil), with help from its proxy army, the Syrian Defense Forces. Russia's invasion was along its borders, in response to CIA and NATO meddling in a country with deep historical, linguistic, and cultural ties to Russia. U.S. meddling included "engineering" the 2014 coup, according to Chas. W. Freeman, former U.S. Ambassador to Saudi Arabia and Lifetime Director of the Atlantic Council. The U.S. also armed far-right militias that were attacking Russian speakers in the east. Before the 2022 invasion, the militias increased their bombings. Crimea had voted multiple times for closer ties to Russia. The U.S. exploited divisions in Ukraine between pro-Western and pro-Russian provinces and groups to provoke the war. RAND Corporation recommended arming Ukraine as the best way to "weaken and overextend" Russia and predicted it would result in a war. The New Yorker reported that the CIA and NSA engaged in a broad "effort, around the time of the invasion, to close off many 'sources related to Russia/Ukraine matters.'"

Jack Matlock (former U.S. Ambassador to the USSR under Ronald Reagan) said in a 2024 interview: "Why don’t we understand that trying to remove Ukraine from Russian influence and put military bases there would be, in their case, absolutely unacceptable and worthy of defense?" Matlock said the U.S. backed the 2014 coup, and "Obviously, to any Russian leader, not just Vladimir Putin, that would have been an absolutely impossible, hostile act, which they had to react to. And in particular, they were not going to lose their naval base in Crimea." Finally, Matlock said the Ukrainians are "dominated in their thinking by neo-Nazis — we tend to ignore that, or when Putin points it out, we say he’s lying. He’s not lying."
