Here is the gist of it, Fiona Hill is still very much numerology obsessed.
So in the past 3 hours I tried to find out if what Fiona Hill presented in a Brookings Institution talk, as the reasoning for why “the Finns joined NATO”, was a one off laps in arguing that relied heavily on an actual argument popular in finnish society, or if Fiona Hill is indeed a fan of numerology.
Turns out Fiona Hill, VERY MUCH a fan of numerology.
So here is the initial statement again, that was made by Fiona Hill on the 16th of September 2023 in this Brookings institution video.

[…] why the Finns joined NATO, because they’re all in they know where this is heading 1989 for them, did seem like an aberration and although the Finns were embracing the European Union and basing their embracing, their independence - they always had in the back of their minds that history would come back again - with another nine [thats the number 9] like 1939. So they were always raring to go - so I think that we ought to ourselves take a pause, you know, when we look through our own lens at 1989, and where we’ve been and you know how we feel about the war in Ukraine, a lot of other countries are all in, because as uh Timothy said they have a different year zero though they have a different year nine - they think about a lot of these, uhm dates in different historical patterns[…]
Now in my mind the question still persisted, if she really talked about “how Finns think today”, or if she attributed delusional thinking onto an entire nationality of people here.
Well, what can I say.…
Not only the Finns are heavily into numerology according to Fiona Hill, the whole of europe is:
Referencing this video debate from a University of Idaho Panel, uploaded on the 9th of October 2023, at about 9 Minutes in:
[…] and Senator Borah was of course someone who famously wanted to end an outlaw war um which was a very Noble ideal and of course this was after the the Mayhem of World War I and he sadly you know um passed away in 1940, although perhaps fortunately -- because he didn’t live to see uh the United States dragged into World War II um after the attack on uh Pearl Harbor.
But all of this repetition of War, a 100 years cycle of wars in Europe, is also colliding with major uh International crises uh climate change and climate disasters uh which are um certainly notable uh around around the world uh, very fast demographic change uh I was talking to someone earlier about thinking who would have thought and perhaps who would have thought if you were sitting here 50 years ago as an undergraduate that the world would go from two billion people to 8 billion, … […] also very fast rapid technological change uh and all of the concerns - I was meeting with students earlier who were asking about you know where are we headed with AI you know for example, I’m sure that’s another of the themes that will spin themselves out over um in the Borah symposia in the future and it certainly feels like with the title that you’ve picked, that we’re in one of these apocalyptical uh moments, but I would suggest as a historian we’ve been there before - many times - uh Senator Borah’s whole um experience as the person that this commemorates would have he would have felt the same for sure, uh back in the the 1920s when he was, you know, part of the Kellogg Briand pact, trying to stabilize a world…

(at about 9 Minutes in.)
So here the ENTIRE thought pattern is again. But now its not the Finns, its “us europeans”. And its not Nato we are aiming for, but a “better, more stable world, with less change”.
So here are the markers of the mental image:
1. Proposed lack of structural safety in the self perception of entire countries populations
2. 100 years cycle of war in Europe
3. And both coupled to desaster motives (climate change, demographic change), then moved into another desaster motive, with overpopulation at the 8 billion people mark occurining at the same time.
And the way she got there was through an association with negative emotions, perceived historic cycles, and numbers.
Coincidence? I don’t think so.
Meaning its Fiona Hill whose got a little Covid 19 isolationy, not so much.. like, you know… the russian guy…
So turns out the lady is crazy. At least in part. Lets say she has a spleen.
Well, very well then - and great - because Fiona Hill was the one that invented the “Putin thinks like a czar” narrative for the whole of Europe.
Which in its entirety goes as follows: “Putin thinks like a czar because of historical patterns he follows, in the stone statues Fiona saw in his office after diner years ago - and not only one but like five statues, where the one named Vladimir, which is the only one in front of the Kremlin and not his office, which she also noticed because he was named Vladimir, is doubly important, because its Vladimir Putin, and Vladimir the czar, so “Double Vladimir” (thats a quote), and double Vladimir, is very important - for why Putin invaded Ukraine”.
Not joking, see Fiona Hills arguing here:
Oh, the four stone statues theory now got two types of Vladimir on top
So apart from being the main propagandist for europes war narrative, what does the Lady do currently - you know job wise?
Fiona Hill is a senior fellow in the Center on the United States and Europe within the Foreign Policy program at Brookings. She also holds the prestigious position of chancellor at Durham University in the United Kingdom and was recently elected to the Harvard University Board of Overseers.
