LUONGO: This is another European war picked by Europeans which they expect the US to bankrupt themselves fighting

DONALD TRUMP, JR.: They know that if Ukraine joins NATO, it will immediately trigger World War 3 with Russia - Which is what Joe Biden and the establishment have always wanted.

Oh, God.

Jimmy Dore on the Ukraine Kill List and others. American tax dollars being used to target American journalists . . . Yeah, just ignore this . . . .

Uh-oh, being critical of war is a no-no in Ukraine. You could be put on Ukraine's NATO'S kill list.  But really, who is NATO?  
Probably means nothing.  



They're going after more American journalists than ever before.

From 2008 to 2014, 14,000 Russians in the Donbass have been killed

Russia launched an operation it felt it had to secure its country.  We had been working tirelessly for at least the last 20 years to undermine and weaken Russia in whatever way possible.  We decided that we didn't care very much for Mr. Putin and his success at retrieving Russia from the ash heap of history.  And then the Russians made it very clear that they would not accept NATO on its borders.  Effectively, they'd done that with Latvia and Estonia, but they made it very clear that Ukraine, which is roughly the size of Texas in the United States, could never be a member of NATO.  That it presented too much of a danger.  They made that clear in 2008 in Budapest.

Once the Russians invaded Ukraine, they made the mistake that they expected someone would negotiate with them.  They went in with a really small force, no more than 90,000 on the ground, and they discovered after 2 or 3 months, 4 months, even though they were not taking heavy casualties, they discovered that they weren't going to get a negotiated settlement.  Finally, the [Russian] generals met with Putin last summer and said that this is a war.  This is not what we bargained for, we miscalculated, the underlying assumptions were wrong, there is no one to talk to.  They realized they had to get ready for a real war, which meant mobilizing reserves, expanding the size of the army, training everybody up, and re-equipping people because the equipment they used initially was almost all obsolescent.  So that was completed by Christmas.  Then there was pressure to launch an offensive, but the weather didn't cooperate, so the decision was made, since we don't have firm ground, and you'll recall that in that part of the world we have this thing called Rasputitsa, which is effectively a sea of mud that makes it virtually impassable for armored fighting vehicles or wheeled vehicles.  If you leave the hard-surfaced road, you're in big trouble.  If you go back to WWII, you'll find that the major offensives were either launched in the dead of winter when the ground was frozen or they were launched in June, July, August, or September.  So the Russians then said, fine, we'll build an impregnable defense, hold what we got, and invite the Ukrainians to attack us.  And in the meantime, Ukrainians have taken terrible, terrible losses.  These losses have never been truthfully reported in the Western media because Washington was very concerned that if it became clear that Ukrainians were dying in great numbers, their forces almost being destroyed faster than they could be fielded, the support for this insane notion for waging a proxy war on the backs of Ukrainian people against Russia would no longer be supported in NATO.  So the easy solution was lie.  And then you have a compliant media which is ideologically aligned with the globalist neocon governments, especially in Washington and London, then it becomes very easy to tailor the message to somehow or another to sustain support.  And remember, Russia still has the legacy of the Cold War behind it, and what that means is that it's easy to convince people that Russians are bad, Russians are evil.  After all, wasn't the Soviet Union bad or evil?  Of course, this is not the Soviet Union.  This country today is radically different.  If anything, it is extremely religious, culturally conservative, and I think the Russian military, contrary to what's being reported in the Western media, has behaved extraordinarily well, is not guilty of 90% of the war crimes of which it's being accused.  On the other hand, the Ukrainian military has behaved atrociously

11 million + Ukrainians have left the country, and they have no intention of going back to Ukraine.  Haven't begun to traffick children and women.  The squandering of cash that ends up in places like Cyprus, belonging to people like Zelensky and key people in his operation, including generals in the Ukranian Army even down to the battalion level.   This is a disaster and we should put a stop to it right away and try to rescue as much of Ukraine as we can.  

Thanks to Alex Krainer.

NATO EXPANSI0N INTO UKRAINE IS THE BRIGHTEST OF RED LINES FOR RUSSIA

Turkey states that they don't want to join the Nazis of NATO . . . then massive earthquake strikes. I'm sure it's unrelated

Who is the American Ambassador to Turkey?  Jeffrey L. Flake

Not 100% sure what this is, but it certainly can't be ruled out that it had something to do with the earthquake in Turkey.

"if Putin does not become more aggressive, [the Russian hardliners] may indeed replace him [with a coup] by May and then holy hell will break loose."

Thank you to Martin Armstrong @ Armstrong Economics.   

Washington is wielding its own array of pressures to paint Putin as a loser as Octavian did to Mark Antony. 

If the US hands Zelensky long-range missiles, he will use them to attack mainland Russia and that will begin World War. 

I kept thinking that the war in Ukraine would simply end and the country would be divided.  But it looks like NATO, i.e, the United States, wants war with Russia.  In fact, they want the war to conquer Russia.  Talk about your existential battles.  Martin Armstrong explains.

Russian Navy ships and submarines have suddenly left their base at Novorossiysk, in the Black Sea, en-masse.

This is highly unusual and many fear that this is a change in tactics. The Western Press keeps trying to paint Russia as losing the war so, quite frankly, they can get more people to volunteer to join the military if they think they are on the winning side.  There is no question that the US and Russia are waging the most intense confrontation since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. Our model on that confrontation aligned with our major war model showing that 2014 was the end of that period and the beginning of this new period as we head into World War III.

The hardliners are not happy in Russia and President Vladimir Putin is being pushed into a corner. Either he gets more aggressive, or there could be a coup by May. The hardliners are using nuclear threats and other escalations in what they know is now really a proxy war of the USA and NATO against Russia using Ukraine as the pawn they are willing to sacrifice. NATO troops will not venture in until the last Ukrainian dies on the battlefield.

Washington is wielding its own array of pressures to paint Putin as a loser as Octavian did to Mark Antony. The good news is that, so far, both strategies have been very carefully calibrated. The bad news is that America and Russia are still on a collision course because the end goal is actually to conquer Russia.

Sweden has now escalated its draft. Poland is building its army of up to 250,000 men. All of this is based on the expectation that Ukraine can reduce the Russian army and that will make it a cakewalk to invade Russia and drive tanks from Poland right into Moscow

Sweden was preparing by boosting military spending by around 40% over the five years from 2016 and doubling the numbers conscripted into the armed forces as it looks to beef up its defence amid growing tensions with Russia post-2014. Meanwhile, France, Italy, Latvia and Lithuania scrapped conscription as they concluded that large-scale defence was no longer necessary before 2014, but now they have all reversed policies.

The Joe Biden administration pledged to defend “every inch” of Nato territory. That has complicated matters for Putin to interfere with Ukraine’s supply lines through Romania and Poland. The Western Press keeps pitching the same propaganda that Putin is spiralling toward defeat in Ukraine and may not survive that outcome politically. Yet I know that the hardliners are there and if Putin does not become more aggressive, they may indeed replace him by May and then holy hell will break loose.

Putin is warning Washington as well as Kyiv that attacks on those territories are tantamount to attacks on Russia itself. The Biden administration has opted not to listen to anything from Putin and only seeks war instructing Zelensky to sacrifice his own people and to reject any peace talks whatsoever. If the US hands Zelensky long-range missiles, he will use them to attack mainland Russia and that will begin World War.

EVERY President throughout my entire life has always sought peace. The Biden Administration and NATO only talk about pushing war. NEVER have I ever witnessed such irresponsible leadership for . . .  "Climate Change."

Vladimir Putin Addresses the Russian Defense Ministry Board Dec 21, 2022 – English Subtitles

 


Dear Fellow Colleagues, 

It is well known that the military potential and capabilities of almost all major NATO countries are being widely used against us.  Still, our soldiers, sergeants, and officers are fighting for Russia with courage and fortitude and are fulfilling their tasks with confidence step by step.  Without a doubt, these tasks will be fulfilled in all territories of the Russian Federation, including the new territories, and a safe life for all of our citizens will be ensured.  Our armed forces' combat capabilities s is increasing day by day, and we will certainly step this process up.  I would like once again to thank everyone who is fulfilling their combat duty today, including tank crews, paratroopers, artillerymen, motor riflemen, sappers, signalmen, pilots, special operations forces, air defense troops, sailors, military topographers, logistics support specialists, National Guard personnel and other formations for the way that you are fighting.

[Could you imagine General Milley making these remarks in front of his generals?  I can't.  He'd say something like I want to know "white rage" [see 5:40]  Douche.]
