The gloves have come off

Russia has been, you know, restraining itself uh in compared to a real war. This isn't a real war. If this was a real war, you would see Russia has the potential to go full scorched earth if if necessary. They haven't done that from the beginning. But now you can see the conflict is entering a new phase. And what what's going from a special military operation with very specific objectives like the demilitarization of Ukraine, the denosification, etc. Uh and of course NATO membership is is a big a big thing that they would like to prevent in Moscow. But now you're moving into what the officials in Moscow are alluding to is an anti-terror operation. And and even as we speak, Ukraine is still launching uh attacks inside mainland Russia, hitting infrastructure, railway uh railway systems and so forth, hitting civilian targets as well. And then the potential targeted assassinations, the hitting of nuclear deterrence and so forth. All of these things add up to the rep prioritization by Moscow. Um, so you could say proverbally the the gloves are off.

 

 

they [Ukraine] don't have enough men left to continue to fight. They lose. They are suffering a loss and a shrinking of the Ukrainian army on a month-by-month basis, because the number that they can force mobilize is less than their casualties. So they're getting smaller every single month. Russians are getting bigger every single month. I mean those things are are common knowledge. They're out there for anyone to see. No matter what you do, the Russians have the manpower, they have the air power, they have the air defense, they have the industrial capacity to engage in a war of attrition, even at great cost to them, because they have enough in every single category to pay. And you [Ukraine] have insufficient in every single category to defend. It is inevitable that at some point math will apply and the Ukraine side will lose.

[. . .]

The best thing the United States can do right now is to get this war off the table at whatever cost, frankly, because we have to defend ourselves. We have to make sure that America can defend itself if we are attacked by somebody because this signals big- time weakness.

 

Turkey, which is a much more robust state, has still not been able to enter uh the EUR about and suddenly the most corrupt state in Europe is pivoted in. How will that look? I mean it looks about as hypocritical as you can imagine.

[. . .]

I'm not sure if Russia is trying to put the West down. I think Russia is trying to get away from the west and I think Russia actually sees and I suspect they have pretty good evidence for that that the global south is also thinking in the same way.

 

It is the West and Zalinski who are having success at getting Trump to change his position and move over into them. And honestly, this is starting to look like Joe Biden light.

 

the latter stages of wars, the the casualties for the losing side seem to go up uh because they are they have fewer trained people. They're just throwing more men into the gaps to try and prevent the other side from winning. and the onslaught just continues on and that's appears to what we're seeing right here. Well, now there's something even a little bit more graphic and that is uh this video that I found today that shows a documentary about the fact that that's it. They're right there. It's called Teens of War. You can Google that and find if you want to watch the whole video. Uh but this is really really disturbing. These are teenagers. They're not even old enough yet for the draft.

 

cool kids, especially cool young hip kids, go to Azov Brigade to train with them for the entire day.

Follow the money!

As he boarded the night train to Ukraine,  Boris Johnson  had the usual entourage of aides and bodyguards – plus the man who had given him £1m

Less than a year had passed since Johnson accepted what is thought to be the largest donation ever to an individual MP. It was from Christopher Harborne, one of the UK’s biggest and most private political donors.

Harborne, whose millions helped bankroll Brexit, made the payment to a private company Johnson set up after resigning as prime minister. Now leaked files show that Johnson, a champion of Ukraine in office and since, was accompanied in September 2023 by his benefactor on a two-day visit that included meetings with top officials.

Vast amount of money lost to corruption!

the latest revelation has been a hundred million dollar payback scheme that was engineered by one of Zelinsky's close associates. And when that came up, that was about a week ago, maybe two week almost two weeks ago, it it was brought by the Ukrainian anti-corruption investigators and they have been put into gear mainly because of pressure by the United States. So, so that's kind of the tip of the iceberg. That that's just small potatoes because if we look at the total amount of money that's been pumped into Ukraine since 2022, it's about $360 billion. And out of that, I estimate that the corruption's running be somewhere between 15 and 30% of that. Probably towards the 30% line. That's what the auditors found with the involvement in the United States in Afghanistan. The corruption was running at 30% in Afghanistan. I think it's probably pretty close to that in Ukraine. So we're talking Mike about big bucks. We've got at 15% of the corruption money go lining the pockets of the of the corrupt 54 billion and at 30% it would be 108 billion.

Kick-backs?

The European leaders are ignorant and are the puppets of NATO. They are too stupid to see that the Neocons are manipulating them. This nonsense that Ukraine should not be split is insane. That was the ONLY way to stop the ethnic killing in Yugoslavia. Czechoslovakia split in two as well. The Minsk Agreement, which even Germany signed, was to allow the Donbas to vote. Merz refusal to honor the word of Germany is dooming Europe to World War III. If they reall want peace, surrender the Donbas. Else, then sacrifice all of Europe to a third world war. There will NEVER be peace with Russia because people like Kallas hate the Russian people.

The only way for Europe to avoid this war is to stand up and demand that they have a say in creating war. European leaders will lie and put Europe at risk for Ukraine, the most corrupt nation on Earth. Zelensky’s Chief of Staff is now implicated in stealing $100 million. How musch more money will the West hand these people to stuff in their private accounts. They never get enough. Are they paying kickbacks to NATO and Europeans leaders?

The destruction of Europe

War is a great way to default on debts. You get to form a new government, and they always disavow the debts of the previous government. Europe has been committing economic suicide. Between the COVID-19 Lockdowns, the NET-ZERO Climate Change, and then the sanctions on Russia that doubled their fuel costs, you could not ask for a more brain-dead group of politicians who have ZERO comprehension of even how the economy functions.
