The Biden White House and the Democratic Party machine trying to advance Kamala Harris from No. 2 in the regime to No. 1 gets more interesting by the week, I have to say. The Harris campaign has at last, two months after the party’s elites and financiers railroaded her candidacy past any semblance of a democratic process, published a platform it calls A New Way Forward, and I will get to this in due course. I am less interested now in words posted on a website than in two recent developments we ought to consider together even if no one has yet thought to do so.

Slowly and very surely, it becomes clear by way of these weekly turns how a new Democratic regime, should Harris win on Nov. 5, proposes to manage the imperium’s business. And however many foolish voters may be illusioned otherwise, if Harris takes the White House her business will be neither more nor less than managing the imperium—the wars, the provocations, the illegal sanctions and other collective punishments, the terrorist clients in Israel, the neo–Nazis in Kiev.

Last Wednesday, Sept. 4, Liz Cheney surprised Washington and, I suppose, most of the rest of us when she announced she would support Harris’s run for the presidency. The onetime Wyoming congresswoman, a coup-cultivating warmonger who remains among the hawkiest of right-wing foreign-policy hawks, was not the first Republican to jump across the aisle this political season, and she was also not the last: Two days later, Liz’s pop did the same. Dick Cheney, of course, needs no introduction.

Instantly, the Harris campaign declared its delight in having the support of these courageous patriots, as the organization called them in its official statements.

A week after all this high-caliber politicking, President Biden convened in the Oval Office with Keir Starmer, the new British prime minister, to consider Ukraine’s proposal to fire Western-supplied missiles at targets well inside Russian territory. The Brits are ready to oblige the Kiev regime, as are the French, but everyone—London, Paris, Kiev—needs Biden’s permission to widen the war in this fashion.

At the moment, Biden and Secretary of State Blinken are in their “Well, maybe†phase, and we are meant to be on the edges of our seats wondering whether they will assent to these plans. But haven’t we seen this movie before and don’t we know how it ends? Wasn’t it, “Maybe we will send HIMARS rocket systems,†“Maybe M–1 tanks,†“Maybe Patriot missiles,†“Maybe F–16s� Even before the Biden–Starmer encounter last week, Blinken and David Lammy, the British foreign secretary, during a visit to Kiev for talks with Volodymyr Zelensky, were already dropping heavy hints that Biden will once again acquiesce to the plans the Ukrainian president and the British PM were choreographed to present to him.

The stipulation Biden and Blinken now purport to insist upon is that they will not assent to letting Kiev use weapons provided by the U.S. — which seems to be different from weapons made by the U.S.—against targets in the Russian interior. This is no more than one of those hair-splits in which the Biden White House trades when it wants to look thoughtful and cautious but is neither. Will someone tell me what damn difference it will make to Russia if Moscow takes a hit from a missile sent from Britain, France or the United States?

These people are convening to plan the Western powers’ reckless escalation of a proxy war they have no way of winning and know they have no way of winning. Desperation is as desperation does: This is my simple read of these deliberations.

Between the war-planning and the shifting political loyalties, what have we witnessed over these past couple of weeks? This is our question.

â– 

When the Cheneys, père et fille, enlisted in the Harris campaign’s ranks, Jen O’Malley Dillon, the campaign’s chairwoman, lauded the former for his courage and the latter for her patriotism. Elsewhere in the Harris “hive,†as I gather we are calling it, liberal commentators stopped just short of gushing over Liz and Dick Cheney’s political migration, ignoring the fact it appears to be mere opportunism.

James Carden had a pithy piece on this, “Cheneymania Seizes the Democrats,†in the Sept. 12 edition of The American Conservative. “The wild applause that met Liz’s announcement … is indicative of where liberals now place their priorities,†the longtime Washington commentator wrote, “and goes a long way toward explaining why they cannot be trusted on matters of national security.â€

There is a lot of politics in the Democrats’ exuberant greeting of the Cheneys, of course. Harris’s people want to make the most of divisions among Republicans, and, in the case of Liz Cheney, to exploit the animus that has arisen between her and Donald Trump. But we must look more closely than this fully to understand this political ballet. Liz Cheney once had a public spat with Rand Paul over who was “Trumpier.†Dick Cheney is guilty of more war crimes, crimes against humanity and war-profiteering than Donald Trump could dream of in his sweetest dreams.

No mention of this as we think about these two political defections? I have read or heard of none from within the Harris hive.

Stephen Cohen used to joke, except that he wasn’t joking, that there is one party in Washington and it is rightly called the War Party. We have just had a reminder of the late and eminent Russianist’s prescience. There is no intent among the people telling Kamala Harris what to profess to question this nation’s numerous aggressions and illegalities, or even to reconsider the Biden regime’s disastrously miscalculated foreign policies, which are indistinguishable from the neoconservative agenda Democrats, once upon a time, pretended to oppose.

Read A New Way Forward, a 13–page document. The one and a half pages given to national security and foreign affairs amount to a screed dedicated to Russophobia, Sinophobia, NATOphilia and “the most lethal fighting force in the world,†which seems to be Harris’s idea of a diplomatic corps. This is how Steve Cohen’s War Party thinks and what it sounds like. As a statement of intent, the Harris–Walz platform is entirely accommodating of the Biden White House’s very likely decision to escalate the Ukraine conflict to the point of risking the World War III Biden pretends not to want.

â– 

The clearest, most sobering analysis of the Biden–Blinken thinking—is this my word?—about authorizing Kiev to attack targets deep inside Russia with Western-supplied missiles came from Vladimir Putin. The Russian president spoke last Thursday, the day before Starmer’s talks with Biden, in response to a reporter’s question. His statement is worth reading in full, given the obvious gravity he attaches to the West’s deliberations:

What we are seeing is an attempt to substitute notions. Because this is not a question of whether the Kiev regime is allowed or not allowed to strike targets on Russian territory. It is already carrying out strikes using unmanned aerial vehicles and other means. But using Western-made long-range precision weapons is a completely different story.

The fact is that — I have mentioned this, and any expert, both in our country and in the West, will confirm this — the Ukrainian army is not capable of using cutting-edge, high-precision, long-range systems supplied by the West. They cannot do that. These weapons are impossible to employ without intelligence data from satellites, which Ukraine does not have. This can only be done using the European Union’s satellites, or U.S. satellites — in general, NATO satellites. This is the first point.

The second point — perhaps the most important, the key point even — is that only NATO military personnel can assign flight missions to these missile systems. Ukrainian servicemen cannot do this. Therefore, it is not a question of allowing the Ukrainian regime to strike Russia with these weapons or not. It is about deciding whether NATO countries become directly involved in the military conflict or not.

If this decision is made, it will mean nothing short of direct involvement—it will mean that NATO countries, the United States and European countries are parties to the war in Ukraine. This will mean their direct involvement in the conflict, and it will clearly change the very essence, the very nature of the conflict dramatically.

This will mean that NATO countries—the United States and European countries—are at war with Russia. And if this is the case, then, bearing in mind the change in the essence of the conflict, we will make appropriate decisions in response to the threats that will be posed to us.

There are clearly people of sound mind within the Washington policy cliques who can read this statement for what it is and understand the risk the Biden regime contemplates as it inches toward an official decision on the missiles question. But these wiser heads do not appear in the ascendant. The prevailing view seems to lie with people such as William Burns, the CIA director, who thinks Putin is bluffing and, nonsensically enough, are willing to find out if they are right by calling said bluff.

Here is part of a letter 17 former ambassadors and generals sent to the Biden administration last week, as quoted in The New York Times. As you read these sentences, think about why the signatories of this letter wrote it and how it is they are as confident of their judgment as they profess:

Easing the restrictions on Western weapons will not cause Moscow to escalate. We know this because Ukraine is already striking territory Russia considers its own—including Crimea and Kursk—with these weapons and Moscow’s response remains unchanged.

Now think about whether those who wrote and signed this letter, and by extension those running Ukraine policy, are sane or insane.

Among the Biden regime’s purported concerns as it considers authorizing Ukraine to widen the war is what difference attacks on the Russian interior would make. The White House and the Pentagon want to see a plan, it has been reported. It is a good question, asking about the point of this kind of escalation, but I am not sure an answer matters much to those who sit at the table in the White House cabinet room. As I have argued severally in this space, the Biden regime has foolishly cast this war as one between democracy and autocracy. Accordingly, it can afford to risk all manner of precipitous escalations, but it cannot afford to lose.

Entering stage right, possibly on cue, Volodymyr Zelensky now says he wants to show Biden, and subsequently Harris and Trump, his “plan for victory over Russia.†The Washington Post reported last Friday this will consist of very few parts. “All the points depend on the decision of Biden,†the Ukrainian president said at a recent forum in Kiev.

As The Post noted, Zelensky is to date shy of revealing these points, but there are reports, well short of confirmed, that there are three of them. The first is the missile authorization, the second is an assurance that NATO will deploy air-defense systems to protect western Ukraine, and the third—get a load of this—is a guarantee that NATO will dispatch ground troops to rear areas of the conflict so that the Armed Forces of Ukraine can deploy more of its own troops to the front.

These proposals, if confirmed as Zelensky makes his next trip to Washington, all align in one direction: The Kiev regime’s running theme remains dragging the West further into the war rather as the Netanyahu regime in Israel is forever trying to do the same in West Asia. Zelensky, the Israeli prime minister, Biden: The world’s problem right now, or one of them, is that none of these people can afford to lose the wars their hubris led them to start.

The Anglos and the Americans are likely to make an official announcement about the use of long-range missiles against Russia after the U.N. General Assembly concludes its business on Sept. 28. Starmer has recently indicated as much. In the best outcome we will find that Putin has rattled Washington and London such that they will step back from this latest plan to escalate. It is possible. But the U.S. and the other NATO powers have not done much stepping back to date, we are well to remind ourselves.

M.K. Bhadrakumar, the former Indian diplomat who publishes the consistently thoughtful Indian Punchline newsletter, put out a piece Monday, Sept. 16, arguing that the Anglo–American powers are turning the proxy war in Ukraine into Russian roulette. Here is part of Bhadrakumar’s reasoning. Storm Shadows are the missiles Starmer would allow Kiev to fire into Russia if the Biden regime approves of the plan:

Moscow anticipates that the U.S.–U.K. ploy may be to test the waters by first (openly) using Britain’s Storm Shadow long-range air-launched cruise missile, which has already been supplied to Ukraine. On Friday, Russia expelled six British diplomats assigned to the Moscow embassy in a clear warning that U.K.–Russia ties will be affected. Russia has already warned the U.K. of severe consequences if the Storm Shadow were to be used to hit Russian territory.

What makes the developing situation extremely dangerous is that the cat-and-mouse game so far about NATO’s covert involvement in the Ukraine war is giving way to a game of Russian roulette that follows the laws of Probability Theory.

Bhadrakumar has this exactly right, in my view, but with one minor flaw in his argument. The Americans and the Brits can be said to be playing, unserious as they are, but the Russians are not.

  1. These weapons are impossible to employ without intelligence data from satellites, which Ukraine does not have.

    A misleading statement since the same would be true for Garmins. They can’t be used without Western satellites.

    Ukraine is perfectly capable of using the missiles.

    They just conducted a deep strike with their own drone:

    Video Link

    The war party is in the Kremlin.

    Putin could send his troops home and the war would end. That is the fastest way to de-escalate.

    These people are convening to plan the Western powers’ reckless escalation of a proxy war they have no way of winning and know they have no way of winning.

    Putin’s US bootlickers at the start of the war said that Ukraine should surrender and completely submit to Russia.

    Now Putin wants to walk with the oblasts he refers to as “conquests” and not the entire country.

    So we have gone from Putin’s bootlickers telling us that there is no way of winning anything to accepting that a free Ukraine will exist. Real impressed.

    what these idiots fail to understand is that the russians have options other than direct confrontation, such as arming proxies fighting along side their adversaries. just this past week the houthis announced they hit israel with a “newly developed” hypersonic missile that traveled 2040 km in 11.5 minutes by my calculations that works out to about mach 8.6. the only country that had demonstrated a mach 9 missile was russia, although who knows what the iranians have in store as they play their cards pretty close to the vest. either way the only countries in the hypersonic club are russia, china, with the recent addition of korea (who just signed a mutual defense treaty with russia) and now those amazing sandal wearing houthis have joined the club.

    the russian federation alone, out produces the entire zato zioneocon empire defense industry on it’s own and now they have joined forces and are sharing technologies with china, iran, and korea all of which have in house, state owned military industries, rather than for profit, phony baloney ponzi scheme defense industries, who’s warehouses and facilities seem to keep spontaneously combusting.

    “the War Party is in the Kremlin”

    and in DC, London, Paris, Berlin, Kiev, etc.

    the Problem with Putin is every “warning” he has issued against (further) US/NATO escalation of the Ukraine War, especially into Russia, is always filled with weasel words, including his latest screed. So it’s no surprise that the International ZOG keeps crossing his so-called “Red Lines” and escalating still more. I hope that when/if Uncle Schmuel and Ukraine strike even deeper into Russia (than it is already doing) the Russians will strike directly against US and NATO targets external to Ukraine. But,

    based on past performance, Babyface Tsar will simply intensify the massacre w/in Ukraine.

    you brag about the “kursk invasion” that even your own mockingbird media acknowledges it to to a horrible fiasco, losing an unbelievable amount of men and equipment and your remaining forces are being hunted down to extinction, unless they surrender, which the russians have even opened a telegram channel to facilitate that, to those who don’t want to die for george soros and your clown “president” who’s mandate has run out. soon you will all be run out.

    This was no surprise. MAGA has been pushing war hawks out for some time.

    A key term for understanding the new order is — *NeoConDemocrats*.

    Thought leaders like Bill Kristol and George Will went DNC some time ago. Pro-war Liz and Dick Cheney swapping are not surprises. If John McCain were still around, is there any doubt he would primary Kamala to be the next DNC candidate? Romney may make a NeoConDemocrat effort in 2028.

    There are a few “old guard” establishment types sticking in the GOP until retirement. Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham are obvious names working on imminent post Senate plans. Is there a good way to get rid of John Cornyn?

    Yes. The SJW Globalists are trying to undermine Trump’s 2nd term. The good news is that there are procedural barriers that are hard to beat.

    A Declaration of War (or a lesser Authorization for Use of Military Force [AUMF]) requires 60 Senators to break filibuster. Even with bad actors such as Graham and McConnell, they cannot reach that number.

    Quick Johnson, google the difference between a drone and a missile! What makes you think the magic missiles will do any more harm than drones, which are more difficult to stop?

    I’ve never used the term magic missiles and there are multiple types of drones. Ukraine’s long range drones are basically Cessnas packed with explosives and driven by a computer.

    Maybe try quoting me and then asking a question.

    The magic missiles were used before, they did not seem to be able to do enough damage to interfere with the slow grind.

    No one has claimed that being able to use long range cruise missiles will end the war.

    It’s a military request from Ukraine.

    Feel free to have an opinion on it. Unlike you I’m not bothered by a diversity of opinion. I in fact think there should be a fair and honest discussion over the matter.

    I bet you will have a long embarrassing comment history when it comes to the topic of the Ukraine war, once the fat lady has sung

    Ritter, MacGregor and Larry C Johnson have made near monthly predictions on how the war is about to end….for nearly 3 years. I said the war was a bad idea and it’s irrational to think it will somehow stick it to the Jews or Western powers (a common opinion here). The US in fact has financially benefitted from this war through LNG and arms sales. HIMARS is backordered for over 10 years. Putin’s invasion has been a dream come true for the military industrial complex. Really quite unfortunate for those of us that would like a cut in the military budget. That is extremely unlikely in the next 10-15 years thanks to Putin. NATO spending has in fact increased in Europe.

    I don’t blog for a living but I have the better track record when compared to the pro-Putin bloggers. I said earlier this year that Putin won’t have Kharkiv by fall and Larry C Johnson is on record stating that the war will be over by the end of summer. So be careful with your bets. I’m just an anonymous poster and I don’t make a living from selling clickbait to Putin fans. Meaning I can afford to be honest.

    How many times do you think the Ukrainians need to repeat this process to make an impact? Some people say the West can’t produce enough missiles to blow up enough ammo dumps, even if most of them hit their targets.

    Russia is using glide bombs from within their borders and that is currently the main threat to the Ukrainians. Taking out a depot of glide bombs means fewer that will be used on their troops. It’s simple math and understandable as to why they would make the request.

    You have to admire the Jews’ unabashed perseverance and slyness.
    For decades, they’ve been planning and preparing for a war of extension of Israel’s territory. They’ve invested energy and time to build audiences in the media industry and here on Twitter with their subversive agents, from Sam Harris to Bronze Age Pervert. They’ve purchased the vast majority of American politicians across the ideological board.
    They’ve engaged in a multi-decade psyop aimed at making Americans hate Muslims in the Middle East. They’ve positioned themselves throughout institutions of power ranging from academia to federal intelligence agencies and the White House. They’ve consistently demeaned anyone emerging with a different view with sponsored hit pieces and censorship.
    They did all of this while never explicitly revealing the end game: Jewish domination in the Middle East. This is a level of cunningness that the average American Christian is simply incapable of; it is absolutely foreign to our basic moral senses.

    By their own admission, US government agencies and armed forces coordinate with Israel around the clock and have even dispatched personnel to assist in Israel’s terror campaign, but they want the Lebanese to believe that US had no role in the waves of terror attacks in Lebanon?
    US/UK were 100% involved in the TERROR and MASSACRE of the Lebanese people in Lebanon.
    US knew and cooperated with idea of MASS TERROR, like 9/11 using pager with explosive material to kill Lebanese. They build this explosive papers in their LAB in HUNGRY. US and Israel have been making Bio weapons to kill Muslims in large number to steal their resources.

    ISRAEL cannot survive a minute without US/UK support. The evil empires, US/UK, planted Israel in Palestine to capture the region and steal its resources. US is not only the biggest terrorist states and mass murderer, but also is a grand thief.

    The evil empire must be killed now.

    It seems, if this information is correct, that Great Satan is directly involved in the recent terrorist attacks in Lebanon.
    There have also been statements from Russia ref USA biolabs and probably more on American bio war can be expected. Watchers of The Simpsons and Hollywood are of course oblivious to the real nature of the American government.

    “💥🇱🇧 Military expert Kirill Fedorov writes about the origin of the pagers that exploded in Lebanon:

    As it turned out, the solution to the “incredible special operation” of the Mossad with the planting of exploding pagers to Hezbollah is extremely simple and is not connected with any hackers and other things.

    So, these devices are manufactured by a Taiwanese firm called Gold Apollo, which suddenly has a high percentage of American management. Apparently, the pagers were stuffed with explosives right in the factory and under the careful control of the CIA (was it for nothing that Washington shouted that it was not involved, and of the Western countries only they said that?). Then, in April, in which the explosive batch of devices was sent to Lebanon, a large Knesset delegation suddenly arrived in Taipei.

    They were sent, by the way, not directly, but through a Hungarian gasket, to which the money went and where there is only one employee, who is also not paid a salary.”

    The Jew run Deep State will probably install, by way of election fraud, treason, duplicity and blackmail, Kammy Harris into the Oval Office.

    Most of us think, that this will be a continuation of the blood simple, death grinding stupidity and ignorance of the previous criminal-totalitarian Biden regime. Biden made few decisions and when he did, they turned out to be catastrophic. HE insisted on the “Bug Out” in Afghanistan. After that, he wasn’t allowed to so much as wipe his own ass. When Biden was removed from office, he burned the boats and made his second decision, to endorse (The Deep State Deep Shit their collective pants.) Kammy Harris. He did it publicly and there was no turning back, they are stuck with her.

    Kammy Harris is qualified to run, oh…, I don’t know…, maybe the United States Department of Getting Fucked In The Drive Thru.

    She is accepting all of the help from the Jew controlled Media, Big Tech, Government etc. and hoping that the millions of phony votes available will overcome the actual votes for Trump when added to her, predictably desultory total, acquired from trannies, Jews, government workers and the MIC.

    Then, she is gonna break some rice bowls. She is going to be, The Real Housewife Of The White House.

    Jane Austin said that, “Vanity in a weak head, produces every sort of mischief.”

    Already, she has terminated (Or, they have quit.) 92 staffers. She will, bet your life on it, fire anyone at anytime for any reason. Her ad hoc managerial style will NOT suddenly disappear and she is convinced that she is (As are all of the Real Housewives) brilliant.

    Sure, she is an empty pants suit, but she is an existential, self absorbed, narcissistic, cynosure that WILL impose her will. This, in combination with her well documented indolence and cavalier approach to her station, will result in so many start and stop diktats handed down from Mt. D.C. Olympus, that the 24/7 news cycle will look like a pin ball bouncing off rubber bumpers on a machine being played by a deaf, dumb and blind boy.

    She has no values, no principles, no template and there is NO way to predict what will happen.

    Her choice for VP makes Dan Quayle look like John Stuart Mill. So, if the Deep State eliminates her (Although, their efforts so far to shoot Trump must have Barrack Obama hoping they take a shot at him, miss and shoot off Michelle’s dick.) they have, literally, a Bi Polar insane person sitting behind the Resolute Desk watching TicTok videos of funny cats.

    Kammy will NOT take advice, or, orders from anyone and there is no way to actually predict what is coming. It will have more to do with the phases of the moon and her period then national and international variables.

    It’s long overdue that a video of Putin specifically mentioning strategic intelligence the West has been providing Ukraine (‘intelligence data from satellites’), and that this intelligence greatly enhances Ukraine’s military capability, in some cases being indispensable, got wide circulation — I’ve made this same point before — Russia has suffered serious losses as a result, e.g. the cruiser Moskva could not have been located, tracked, and sunk by Ukraine without Western intelligence.

    To date Putin hasn’t really enforced any ‘red lines’ about this — the problem for him now, and for the rest of the world concerned about a wider conflict, is that the provocations are becoming more brazen, requiring a commensurate response — he should have at least closed Black Sea airspace to US intelligence gathering aircraft once it became clear they were providing data to help Ukraine strike Russian naval assets and targets in Crimea — this can be easily justified as a matter of self-defense, and a very public announcement of it would be an opportunity to repeat and emphasize his willingness to negotiate, while putting the spotlight on Western warmongers.

    I know it’s in Russian, try not to choke. The video suggests corruption in the final part, bonus for you! Could be true, someone was already facing trial, some commentators believe that the site was not well built enough. It also gives details what kind of ammo went up. So to me that adds context. This is a normal kind of setback in war, and if there is corruption involved it’s being handled.

    Just to be clear, I do no research, it’s another bet. I bet that if one finds responsible competent media you can avoid being fooled by Western propaganda. Ukraine is one situation I’m satisfied will end in a result that will make MSM narrative look painfully wrong.

    That’s a good suggestion, but it was made by many long ago.

That would have been crushing for morale in Ukraine.

    Unfortunately there are too many powerful oligarchs left in Russia, who WANT good relations with the West and want Russia to be a supplier of raw materials. They do not care about Russians standard of living, they care only about their own personal wealth.

    If the readers of this comment would grant me some patience, I will get to the point of my ramblings and the relevance to the article.

    A few weeks ago I had an interesting conversation with an “Afro American”, in Ebonics of course. This fellow visited Rio, Brazil, took a one day tour through a favela, and declared solidarity with the Black Brazilians living therein. I looked at photos of the Bro in his doo-rag, designer sneakers, bulging muscles and tattoos, walking like a monkey and shouting in English at his camera. Definitely, someone who blends in with the homies in a “dangerous area”. Of course the blacks in the area professed brotherly love and their “slave roots” and white oppression as they relieved him of his US dollars. Whereever Americans go, especially the Negroes, they must make a spectacle of their American superiority all the while harping on Africa, slavery and white supremacy. The “ignorant” locals are initially amused and then very annoyed.

    For a start, the average Black Brazilian, feels no brotherly bond with US blacks. There is no such thing as an Afro Brazilian. The poorest black in the Brazilian favela (slum) considers him a stupid loud mouth ape ! Likewise, the average bush dweller in Africa, feels no bond with any American black. The Afro American is as much an outsider as a member of the other Tribe just over the river. A 100 pound Somali clansman looks at a 230 pound Pelican Bay gang leader as nothing more than a miserable worm.

    Now, unlike the American ghetto, the Brazilian favela is a thriving suburb. Poor yes but miserable NO. There are banks, butchers, bakers, drug stores, restaurants, bars, clothing stores and any other service or goods you may need. While there is a lot of drug dealing, the area is only dangerous when you you dont follow the 3 Monkey Rule. The drug lords of the favela, keep miscreants well behaved ! There is no petty crime, robbery, burglary or rape, no drive by shootings, or shootups at parties and funerals. The women dont act like hoes ! There is no such thing as an informal juvenile justice system in the Favela. A 13 year old stepping out of line is subject to the same rules and punishment. The penalty handed down by the resident drug lord ? Death ! They dont want the Police snooping around, interfering with their million dollar deals because someone snatched a cell phone or robbed a bar of a few dollars. Fact is you are safer in the Favela than in downtown Rio and far safer and secure than in any US city.

    Finally, the Brazilian black, has no time for systemic racism, BLM, white supremacy or any of this trash. He is too busy making a living to be bothered. When your Government assistance is $120 US a month on average, there is neither time nor inclination to bray about the evils of the White Man.

    By comparison, the US ghetto, is a wasteland in every sense !

    Now, although Brazil imported some 4M slaves, or 10 times that of the US, the powers that be know well enough to keep them out of supreme power. That is because the black man, in power, is a useless article ! He can fuck up a bottle of Dom Perignon and exquisite Russian caviar.

    The US, for all its multitude of elite university graduates, still have not absorbed this Brazilian example. Well in fact, it is a South American thing. No black man much less a woman is going to run the show there and while Bolivia elected an Indian at one time, he was lucky to be dethroned with his testicles still attached.

    Which now brings me to our democratic nominee and her coterie of Afro nutballs. One can expect a worldwide conflagration if the US public elects this dummy. Worse yet, you can expect every Agency head to be a black. Dont be surprised if the new CIA director is a black shemale ! Field Marshal Floid von Austen (already plump and portly) already surrounds himself with a posse of Afro yes men and lapdogs as his top aides. There is the continual and destructive obsession with DEI, homosexuality, abortion and every other perversity under the sun, in the military of all places.

    With wily Xi to the East and Steppe Fox Vlad to the East, a brain dead Afro American (or is it Jamaican Hindu ?) female surrounded by fellow groveling Afro Americans is going to find her clit on an anvil with a Chinese and Russian blacksmith (no pun intended) in attendance !

    People think the US is a complete mess right now. They aint seen nothing yet if this cackling nutball is elected.

    Put a black in charge and ruin is the outcome. Everyone, from the Mexican border to the tip of Argentina knows this. How come Americans are still in the dark with this reality ?

  54. The Kiev regime’s running theme remains dragging the West further into the war rather as the Netanyahu regime in Israel is forever trying to do the same in West Asia.

    I see a lot of this type of analysis, but I just don’t buy it. This has nothing to do with the Ukraine or Israel. No other country needs to “drag” the US into any war: the Jews who rule over the US and Israel and Ukraine are hell-bent on starting a bunch of wars, each Jew faction with their own nefarious purposes. And the top Jews decide, not the “US”, which has basically no agency.

    But the eschatological element must not be neglected in any analysis: Jewish messianism is real and it is what determines the great world events. “US” foreign policy IS Jew messianic prophecy. There is no difference. And there is no alternative: the Jew will have his wars, escalating until Armageddon. With every war, the Jews rake in money, kill a bunch of goys, and hasten the arrival of their satanic Mashiach. It’s a win-win-win for the Jews. What’s there not to like about wars, if you’re a top Jew?

    But for those who like this type of analysis, which posits that the “US” and the “West” are being “dragged into” these wars (I repeat: baloney!), then you might like this analysis by Mearsheimer, who sat down with Sachs (an Unz favorite!) to talk about “US foreign policy” for an hour. Here is a partial transcript below and I’ll put a longer segment under the more tab:

    Mearsheimer: Iran is the really dangerous flash point because as you know the Russians are now closely allied with the Iranians, the Chinese are moving in that direction as well and if Israel gets involved in a war with Iran we’re going to come in, in all likelihood. …

    Now to counter the Iranian escalation scenario, the fact is Iran does not want a war with the United States and the United States does not want a war with Iran and it’s the Israelis especially Benjamin Netanyahu who has been trying to sort of suck us into a war because he wants us, the United States, to really whack Iran, weaken it militarily and especially to go after its nuclear capabilities because as you well know they are close to the point where they can develop nuclear weapons.

    So the Israelis are the ones who want us to get involved in a big war with Iran, that’s the escalation flashpoint, and The $64,000 question is whether you think the United States and Iran kind of working together can prevent the Israelis from getting us involved.

    Moderator: That question will be answered based on who leads the next Administration.

    Mearsheimer: Well, if you believe that it matters who leads the next Administration, that’s true.

    The Collision of Power and Principles: John Mearsheimer and Jeffrey Sachs on Great Power Politics

    Video Link

    [MORE]
    Sachs: It’s obvious. There’s essentially one deep state party—that’s the party of Cheney, Harris, Biden, Victoria Nuland. Nuland, who’s my colleague at Columbia, is emblematic of this. She’s been involved in every administration for 30 years. Clinton, wrecking our Russia policies in the ’90s. Bush, expanding NATO. Obama, orchestrating the coup in Ukraine in 2014, which started the war. She’s Cheney’s advisor, Biden’s advisor. This mess transcends political lines.

    Moderator: John, what’s your take on that? Do you see any difference between Republicans and Democrats?

    Mearsheimer: I like to call them Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum—no real difference. The one exception was Trump. When he became president in 2017, he was determined to take on the deep state and chart a different course, especially in foreign policy, but he failed. Now he’s vowing that if re-elected, he’ll beat the deep state and pursue a fundamentally different foreign policy. The big question is, can Trump beat the deep state? I’d bet against it.

    Moderator: John, Jeff—can you define “deep state”? I almost think of it comically, like a friend in a group chat we call “deep state.” But what is it, really?

    Mearsheimer: When we talk about the deep state, we’re referring to the administrative state. Starting in the late 19th, early 20th century, as the American economy grew, we needed a powerful central state to run the country. This state grew more powerful over time, especially after World War II when the U.S. was involved globally. You now have high-level, mid-level, and low-level bureaucrats in the Pentagon, State Department, and intelligence community who push for the same foreign policies that Republicans and Democrats do. That’s why we call them Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. …

    Sachs: I read John’s book, and while I understand his theory, I think we’re heading toward nuclear war. The greatest threat to the U.S. isn’t China’s power, but the risk of nuclear war due to our mindset of escalating every conflict. A little prudence could save the planet. NATO on Russia’s border with Ukraine, for example, was unnecessary. Russia didn’t want the U.S. military on its border, and now we’re at war. We keep pushing, and war becomes inevitable. The mindset of seeing everything as an existential threat leads to catastrophic consequences.

    Mearsheimer: Jeff, we disagree because I believe China becoming a regional hegemon is a serious threat to the U.S. If they dominate Asia, they’ll behave like us—roaming the globe and projecting power. We can’t allow that.

  55. While Putin is harping on about Nazis in Ukraine, he worries not a bit about American corporations buying huge swatches of farm ground there. It would seem Vlad’s little war is actually facilitating the fire sale of Ukraine’s valuable resource by killing off its male goys. There just seems something so convenient about the whole mess. However it would par for the course that the US government wants to add their white male goys to the grinder. Also wee bit curious what the Israelis have planned for us. So far Vlad has done nothing for his Syrian allies when it comes to Israel. Is this another convenience? Or are we all mere pawns in some sort of perverse theatrical human cull brought to you by god’s special little people?

    Your grasp of military operations are as useless as my cooking of Moo Goo Guy Pan with sweet and sour dumplings, a prawns Chow Mein and bird nest soup.

    The entire paging system will be dumped if it has not already been trashed and ………soon replaced. That said, defensive and attack strategies usually have several backup communication systems. Think about a camper pulling a car with 2 bicycles attached ! Finally if all three breakdown, our happy campers can still walk.

    Lebanon’s defence will also be in depth with interlocking positions and communication trenches and tunnels that will rely on cell phones, radio phones, landlines and even runners. I will bet my money to a box of fortune cookies that the opposite bank of the Litani River is also heavily fortified. What would be the point, tactically or strategically, for Israel to have a buffer zone that cannot be defended ?

    If Israel attacks, activity in Gaza and the West Bank will explode. Never mind the other players in the Region, Israel will be the bull bled dry by the nipping dogs from several directions. In addition, attacking forces (and infantry WILL be necessary) will find themselves pinned down, ambushed, funnelled into kill zones and their supply and logistics disrupted if not destroyed. There will be a lot of Kosher meat in south Lebanon. Air power alone will not do the trick and any supporting US aircraft carriers will find themselves under a curtain of missiles. 20 billion $$ of metal (thats the ship alone) and 5500 sailors sleeping with fishes will be very disconcerting.

    Finally of course, even if midlevel leadership in Hizbollah is wiped out, there are immediate replacements. Even down to squad level, every man is trained to perform the duties of every other man. This is elementary stuff. Think about the “war on drugs”.

    Israel will be completely mad to rock and roll with the Hez, but hey anything is possible. Jews and Chinks (like you) are supposed to be smart but in many instances this supposed intelligence is non existent.

Or hit European power plants and sources one for one in response to every strike inside Russia. Or announce that following the first strike Russia will drop a non nuclear missile into NATO headquarters at noon. The following day they will drop another on Buckingham Palace. Although non nuclear it will be filled with Depleted Uranium as a return gesture for the DU sent to Ukraine. Followed by a strike into the heart of the US military empire, only to target the State Department instead of the Pentagon.

    I don’t preach to Ritter. I think he is an MSM reject due to his sex conviction and only sells clickbait to Putin fans because they won’t have him on CNN.

    His dedication to Russia is highly suspicious.

    He is on video giving a pep talk to Chechen soldiers. Not exactly an unbiased source. He should be honest and switch sides. No one would be surprised if he moved to Russia and took a job with their totalitarian state media.

    I see you spamming the same ammo dump video on multiple threads until you get a reaction, looks like you found a new buggy video.

Someone could post the same Ritter or MacGregor video a dozen times and you wouldn’t say anything. That’s because you support double standards and really want this place to be an echo chamber.

    You claim to do some kind of research but your talking points are pure MSM narrative

    You see what you want to see in order to dismiss unwanted opinion.

    It’s normal to support Ukraine. That’s the global opinion.

    I’ve posted more about race than Ukraine and my opinions are certainly not MSM narrative. They would be banned.

    I’m sorry if you have such a hard time with dissenting opinion.

    Ukraine is one situation I’m satisfied will end in a result that will make MSM narrative look painfully wrong.

    Orthodox men with families are dying and you care more about embarrassing some CNN producer who will just shrug and move to the next story. You are another confused White man who is unable to think critically. The MSM will profit from Putin’s war. The MSM, military industrial complex and US based LNG producers will benefit more from this war than the Russian people.

    the Brazilian black, has no time for systemic racism, BLM, white supremacy or any of this trash.

    Yes, but the Brazilian Jew has plenty of time for that: enough time to publish dozens of books, to go on prime time TV, to set up NGOs, all with the intent of convincing Brazilian “whites” that we are all guilty of “structural racism”. Bullshit! It’s all Jewshit smeared constantly on our collective consciousness to produce “white guilt”. The only “structural” thing we’ve got is structural Jewism: just as in the US and the West, the Jew mind-control wizardry is alive and spreading in Brazil.

    [MORE]
    The problem is that no one calls out the Jew for being the mastermind behind the push to accuse white Brazilians of racism and supremacism. That’s because practically NO Brazilian can even fathom that this is happening: they are completely blind to The Jew. But it’s always the same ol’ story: anywhere you go, there’s always a coniving Jew behind these dastardly plots. In this case, it’s a Jewess, and here are a couple of her declarations:

    Few people talk about this privilege that white people have…. You are born with the privilege of being white… Well, I think one of the major new developments, as Vera asked me, is that finally white people are starting to feel the pressure. Cida Bento, a great Black Brazilian scholar, talks about “white fear.â€

    …I think there is no way to study racism in Brazil without studying whiteness because, after all, it was white people who created racism…. So, I think we are living in a moment where whiteness is going to be pressured. This moment is important.

    Lilia Schwarcz discusses the concept of whiteness and racism – Roda Viva Sep 7, 2020

    There you go: a Jewess, passing herself off as “white” herself, while her publishing company, Companhia das Letras, publishes dozens of books on racism a year. Together with another Jew-owned (Civita family) publisher, Editora Abril, here are a few of the titles these Jews publish, using blacks as a weapon against whites:

    Little Anti-Racist Handbook
    Structural Racism
    The Genocide of the Black Brazilian: The Process of a Masked Racism
    Narcissistic Pact of Whiteness
    Why I’m No Longer Talking to White People About Race

    So these Jews, posing as whites, are using blacks to blame real Brazilian whites for the supreme crime of racism: a crime that will send you to jail and which is “inafiançável”, meaning you can’t get out on bail, equated to heinous crimes like terrorism and torture. That’s what white Brazilians are to these Jews: terrorists and torturers!

    As for your other point, that we keep blacks out of supreme power in Brazil, it works just as in the US: who the hell do you think has supreme power, little grasshopper? You think it’s Biden or the Kamel? Give me a break! No American president has even sniffed the scent of power at least since the Jews blew JFK’s brains out, but probably earlier with Woodrow’s treasonous creation of the FED at the behest of his Jew handlers.

    It’s no different here in Brazil: whether the puppet be a Lula or a Bolsonaro, the hidden Jew puppeteers are the ones with the real power. This is nothing new: we’ve been a financial colony of the Jew ever since our traitorous “leaders” took on a huge Rothschild loan, back in… 1822! And now half our federal budget goes to the payment of just the interest on these eternal debts. These are the Jew chains that bind us, financially and mentally: and unless Brazilians wake the hell up, we will continue to be the eternal slaves of the eternal Jew.

    Please recall my proposition of sequester and secession of the Brazilian South-below Sao Paulo and Minas Gerais.

    Brazilian Civil War (1932)

    The Constitutionalist Revolution of 1932 (sometimes also referred to as Paulista War or Brazilian Civil War) is the name given to the uprising of the population of the Brazilian state of São Paulo against the 1930 coup d’état when Getúlio Vargas forcibly assumed the nation’s Presidency; Vargas was supported by the military and the political elites of Minas Gerais, Rio Grande do Sul and Paraíba. The movement grew out of local resentment from the fact that Vargas ruled by decree, unbound by a Constitution, in a provisional government. The 1930 coup also affected São Paulo by eroding the autonomy that states enjoyed during the term of the 1891 Constitution and preventing the inauguration of the governor of São Paulo Júlio Prestes in the Presidency of the Republic, while simultaneously overthrowing President Washington Luís, who was governor of São Paulo from 1920 to 1924. These events marked the end of the First Republic. Vargas appointed a northeasterner as governor of São Paulo.

    I’m not as well versed as others in the military hardware employed in Ukraine; for some reason, the preponderance of drones has led me to lose interest, since armored vehicles have taken a back seat in the fighting. Or, to put a finer point on it, to the paucity of said vehicles on the Ukrainian side. “What? You mean that those six F-16s, 14 Strykers, 10 Challengers and 8 Leopard Is aren’t GAME CHANGERS?” Sorry, Prudence, they are not. At any rate, I’m a little more interested in the politico-cultural ramifications of the conflict. Me, I don’t have an ethnic dog in that fight, but I hope that the Ukrainian generals send Zelensky packing, destination Gstaad, and someone who is tired of the carnage resulting from the Global Cesspool’s insistence on fighting Russia to the last Ukrainian. The Cesspool’s media tribunes have suppressed most of the reporting on the situation, the GAME CHANGER du jour notwithstanding, and so my opinion–essentially–“make peace, you fools”–thank you, Marshal Rundstedt–is still a decidedly a minority one. Sorry if I’ve written this before, but a recent book by retired Swiss Colonel Jacques Baud (pron. Boh), the Russian Art of War, is worth reviewing. It provides a detailed philosophical rationale as well as a Table of Organization and Equipment (T O & E) of Russian hardware. This is not your grandpappy’s Red Army; no drunken tromping through minefields shouting “Hurrah!” No T-34 bull elephant charges.

    Strangely and the article doesn’t mention it, netanyahu and zelensky have a huge common point: they are both jews and zionists.

    I even believe zelensky holds an israeli passport.

    What are the chances that these escalations are planned with the help of the usual zionist puppets in Washington, London, Paris, Berlin, etc..

    The goal being yet another slaughter war between Europeans (Americans are still a majority of European descent people).

    Who is profited the most from all the conflicts Europeans had with each others, if not the jews?

    Same today, jewish media push for war, jewish political whores like #twotierkeir, macron, biden, harris, trump are pushing for more wars (except Trump on Russia maybe)…

    It is important to inform those who think they defend their country or fight a certain enemy that they are in fact played by the jews to start a war that will mean their own extermination, for the sole profit of the jews who hate nobody more than Europeans, Christians and Whites.

    The only war the world should have is against the enemies of humanity, to remove them from power, media, business, banking, Palestine, Europe and the USA: the jews.

    With this last one the Jews owe like 10 attacks. They never die, the Jews.

    These ignorant statement said by GULLIBLE and illiterate people, only.

    The genocidal Jews are NOT fighters, they are bombing from the sky and through weaponization of technology, pagers, to kill people and babies. This is not something that a REAL power does, only petty people like ISIS, US and the Jews have used, because they have nothing else to show since Oct. 7. Americans have used TERRORISM repeatedly, in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Korea, Japan, and 9/11 on their own citizens, to bring people down on their knees, instead, they have been defeated along with their proxy. There are numerous examples to back this fact. Genocidal Israel has received strong supports from the criminal WEST, to stay alive for less than 80 years. Her enemies are much stronger to be able to live for thousands of years and have much brighter future to continue living compare to these FAKE Semites and their terrorist backers.

    The Israeli Jews and their masters in Washington and London, must have been very frustrated not having a victory over small group, Hamas and Hizbullah, non state actors, to use MASS MURDER again, to present a ‘victory’ to their genocidal population to BOOST their morale so they can be kept on board.
    Israel has been supported by the West since the erection of ‘Israel project’ in late 19th century through WEAPONS, FUNDS and WARS. Now, they are so desperate that have turned to weatherization of low technology made in one of their FRONT companies in Hungry, with cooperation of both the terrorists in Taiwan and Hungry to intensify TERROR in Lebanon, killing teachers, doctors, nurses and children.
    Both Israel and US have the world condemnation against them for their use of crimes against humanity to send a message to gullible people that we are still alive.
    Hizbollah easily can bomb the zionists into ashes. Iran could have destroyed Israel and its genocidal population when send hundreds of drones and missiles to Israel. Houthis could have killed 400 zionist genocidal when sent its supersonic missile, but they refused to do that because neither of them are believe in bombing the citizens from the sky. They don’t view them as terrorists like US and Israel. These people are fighting for their freedom and protecting their border, and not, like Israel and US, to expand borders and steal resources.
    These countries are CIVILIZED NATIONS and not thieves and terrorists, like US, UK, and their proxy Israel.

    So many comments. The trio in the photo are saluting what the American flag means today. Sexually mutilating troubled children that weren’t first aborted; porn; homosexuality; and, not least, incinerating innocent Palestinians in ways reminiscent of the Jewish Bolsheviks—the ones who actually did bake little children alive in bakery ovens or literally skin them alive while the parents were forced to watch. Such fine people, these Jews.

    We know the Jews are right in carpet bombing refugee shelters, hospitals, schools, and entire neighborhoods in Gaza because Congress says it’s a crime to say otherwise. Let’s get behind Congress and the Pentagon, sending another 500 airlifts of 2,ooo-pound bombs to ensure there aren’t any Palestinians left to bother with, other than as humanfertilizer for rose gardens when Gaza is rebuilt by Jared Kushner as a seaside paradise for rich Jews from America. You go, Fox News, CNN, and the rest. God is dead. Jews are your new god.

  108. The push for direct confrontation with Russia is moving along quite nicely thank you. Ukraine is flexing its muscles with unmanned drones and direct attacks within Russia territory but things are not going so well tor them and they are not winning the war. Minor NATO members are promising weapons and support and this has emboldened the Ukrainian Nazis even more. This will not end well.
    The US mind control apparatus has kept the American masses distracted and discombobulated with sports, Taylor Swift and the clown show presidential campaign so we will be in total shock when Putin retaliates against targets outside of Ukraine which I think is the Axis of Insanity’s goal, so an even wider war can be fomented.

    This is so short sighted its comical. Russia fights a world economic war while the clowns in DC fight some regional resource greed grab.

    Ukraine is already lost … its just a matter of how much of it survives independently. In addition to that, what is the economic and financial evolution once the confrontation is over?

    Whos replacing an entire generation of men already lost on the battlefield? NATO has no stomach for a full on clash with Russia and the pussies in the US have no back bone for it in any case.

    The United States of America, from its founding to the present day, has spent most of its time at war with someone. From 1776 to 2024 – in its 248 years of existence – the USA was at war for 231 years. In total, only 17 years of American history passed without major wars.

    Not a single president of the USA was a peacetime president, each of the 46 presidents so far spent at least part of their reign as a wartime president.

    The general conclusion is that the United States is most likely responsible for the deaths of between 20 and 30 million people in wars and conflicts around the world since World War II.

    There are many Russian strikes on Ukrainian weapons caches. Compare that to the Ukrainian attack on a Russian warehouse recently, and see a pattern. Russia does things regularly, routinely, that Ukraine would like to do. NATO keeps telling us about what they are GOING to do, a new plan or new plot every day, but producing sporadic successes.

    🇺🇸 Donald Trump, as if he was running for president of Israel, declared the Jews a greater nation even than Americans:

    “Israel is one of the greatest, if not perhaps the single greatest nation on earth – and the Jewish people are incredible

    I am the best friend of the Jews, and I will spend my entire Presidency defending and protecting the State of Israel, nobody loves Jewish people more than me’. If I do not win the elections, Israel, in my opinion, will cease to exist within two years.’

    With all I have done for Israel, I received only 24 percent of the Jewish vote. I really haven’t been treated very well, but it’s the story of my life. If I don’t win this election, and I’ve been very good, in my opinion the Jewish people would have a lot to do with a loss if I’m at 40%

    In the past, if you said something about a Jewish person or something about Israel that was bad, you were out of politics.”

    But the situation certainly doesn’t get any easier from such wording – once again, with the help of satellites, the storage locations of our ammunition are being identified and attacks are being carried out on them.

    Well, I would like to remind you that the EU and NATO have not yet officially given “permission to strike on Russian territory”

    Ukraine has no satellites — the US is providing Ukraine with the strategic intelligence needed to strike Russian targets — this will get worse if Ukraine is allowed to use longer range weapons to hit targets deeper into Russia.

  122. @James of Africa

    LOL, what dissenting information, you are practically CNN with a dash of of The Sun tabloid? MSM. Facebook would be glad to hold your hand.

    I don’t follow the MSM.

    Supporting Ukraine is the default position of the world.

    You are free to search my comments for terms like “race”, “Affirmative action” and “liberalism” and then tell me how they are parallel to the MSM. I’m also quite critical of mainstream conservatives and especially libertarians. Such criticisms would never be aired on Fox or Newsmax.

    In fact you can go directly to my recent comments on Jefferson’s actual opinions of Blacks.

    Go ahead and post an MSM article where they talk about the founding fathers and their beliefs on race. Specifically Jefferson’s opinions on their biological makeup. They would never post such quotes as they hold Jefferson as the “good one” for his statement on equality (which was not about race).

    You claiming global support for Ukraine does not make you look like any less of an American exceptionalist normie. Try living in the rest of the world before you try to speak on behalf of all mankind.

    The UN voted 143-5 that Russia’s invasion is unjust. There was a similar vote on Crimea.

    But sure here you go:

    Global opinion of Putin is negative
    https://www.pewresearch.org/global/2024/07/02/views-of-russia-and-putin-july-24/

    I’m anything but a normie. I wouldn’t call anyone here a normie. Normal people do not come here. The MSM serves normalized narratives and resists open discussions.

    You and others here want that same control of general opinion but with a different narrative.

    The majority of humans know Russia better than Ukraine
    because Soviets were always called Russian

    It’s an interchangeable term in casual conversation but still inaccurate. The Soviet Union had nearly 300 million which means that most of its citizens were not Russian.

    Speak to me about race when we comment on the same thread about race, we may not disagree as much as on the topic of Ukraine.

    You suggested that my opinions mirror the MSM and you’re just plain wrong. I came to the Unz through the Kersey blog (numerous frustrated posters have verified this already) and I’ve wrote exhaustive pieces on race that would never be published in the MSM or even Brietbart. I don’t expect an apology or correction on your part because the like the typical Putin defender you are predictably unprincipled.

    I call bullshit, the war is tragic for one side, Ukraine. For Russia and people who stood with them like Chechens, the war will become part of their mythology

    So for Russian children that lost their fathers you would tell them that they gained mythology?

    Do you think that would make their situation less tragic?

    Johnson Johnson, Johnson, you continue to larp about morals but this contradicts your childlike glee over Russian casualties, remember your “woosh” HIMARS and “buttrape” posts on the Karlin thread? You’re a ghoul and you prove it every time you get all excited about war porn. Please don’t play sensitive. You would probably tell a Russian child that his dead father was Hitler( I would also tell a Ukrainian child it’s dead father is hero even if I support the other side, I have nothing against Ukrainians). I grew up with war, the dead are heroes, and they become part of a people’s myth, I saw it happen with my own eyes. Get off your soapbox.

    Compared to Russia Ukraine now has a mythos contaminated by defeat and futility. I can relate to them culturally, through my own people’s history. There was a thing called the Anglo-Boer war. It ended for us in the deaths of about 33,000 women and children. We lost the war in the first year(both republics lost their capital cities), changed to guerilla warfare, and during the next two years the British went scorched earth and concentration camps on us. Ukraine is were we were now, we call it the Bittereinder phase, to the bitter end. Ukraine has no strategy except to damage Russia as much as possible while they can, including terrorism. Lots of people say Kursk was also about grabbing the Kursk nuclear power plant, the only strategic asset in that area, which sounds right to me.

    I said your views on the Ukraine war is that of a Western civilization normie. There is nothing alternative about the things you believe about the war, I see your talking points in any mainstream media feed. My conclusion is that you are filtering your information, or the media you follow and your search engine is filtering it for you. You have Putin Derangement Syndrome, you jump on any info that paints Russia in a negative way, including using tabloid MSM as references.

    You live in America, so it’s natural that you assume that the majority of humans think the way you do. My people, who are Western in culture learned the hard way what the rest of the world thinks. The very fact that BRICS is expanding and deDollarization being attempted should give you a clue as to what humanity is thinking.

    PS. Normies do come to UNZ. They troll by dragging MSM narrative into alternative uncensored platforms, as if people coming to alternative sites can’t read MSM for themselves. Go look at the comments in MOA, you are on the same page as their trolls.

  125. While I’m here, I might as well spread some Russian propaganda!

    One of the reasons I trust Martyanov and Berletic is their calmness, they don’t get flustered when there’s bad news, like the current woes about missiles and exploding ammo dumps. In the long run staying calm and riding out the bad news works out fine. Social media and clickbait needs you to lose your zen and become emotional. Sleboda has the same effect, he can be critical of Russia without losing his optimism and his info tends to agree with other pro-Russians I believe to be sincere:

    About ammo dumps:

    https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/ukraine-scores-more-large-hits-russian-ammo-storage-depots

    I still make the same bet, they would need to be able to repeat the process regularly to have effect. Judging this by previous problems solved Russia will probably handle it.

    Another Putin defender who has a hard time quoting me. What a surprise.

    Did you want to try again at actually answering the question I posted to you?

    You said that the Russians will gain mythology from the war.

    Here again is the question you ignored:

    So for Russian children that lost their fathers you would tell them that they gained mythology?

    Who loses more in this war:
    1. The US military industrial complex (currently has record profits)
    2. Wealthy US investors that can profit from war
    3. Some Russian girl who lost her dad

    I grew up with war, the dead are heroes, and they become part of a people’s myth, I saw it happen with my own eyes. Get off your soapbox.

    I’m not on a soapbox. It’s a rational question of cost/gains. What do regular Russians gain from this war? Obviously around 100k will lose a husband, father or brother. So what did they get in return?

    My conclusion is that you are filtering your information, or the media you follow and your search engine is filtering it for you.

    I rarely follow the MSM for much more than weather. It seems you follow them more than I do.

    I quote Kanal13 more than any other source and it is not the MSM.

    The other day I pointed out how one of the occupied oblasts never had a separatist movement and voted for Zelensky. Go ahead and post the MSM article showing those talking points.

  128. I’m not going to bother quoting your bullshit you egotist, LOL. Your talking points derail conversations, with your focus on random Ukraine factoids with no context, nobody cares who voted for Zelensky anymore, and you don’t really care what Russians gain from the war. Why do I need to answer your trick questions?
