In a time when anything being reported accurately about the United States must come from some foreign source, it is incumbent upon the reader and discerner of the times to think for oneself. If that’s not something that comes naturally to one, this must be a very difficult and trying time.
When it comes to the Russians, I listen to what they have to say directly as often as possible, knowing that there is still a Soviet filter that must be applied as well as an accuracy rating with a wide arc due to the faithfulness or lack of it, in the translation. Even then, what they’ve been saying lately lands much closer to the truth bullseye than anything our crop of politicians are spouting. The Russians, for instance, don’t seem to have the confusion about what makes a woman a woman. I personally have my qualifiers that are generally accurate, though I can be fooled, if that is one’s intent, but not on closer inspection. At least I have a criteria, that eludes two or three supreme court justices and probably a quarter of the Senate and half the House.
Lately, with the threats of nuclear war by our State Department and the White House coming out of the darkness of last resort, to a more frequent playground taunt, I’ve been listening to the Russian reactions. Knowing that Biden’s promises not to send long-range missiles to Ukraine, and not to make F-16’s or any other nuclear capable fighter available to Kiev, have been broken, I want to see how this is playing in Moscow.
Both Putin and Lavrov have cautioned against these nuclear taunts and open violations of direct NATO support for Ukraine. Even though it all seems completely reasonable for Putin to react in much stronger terms than he has to date, one must wonder why he hasn’t. Russia does not appear to be weak, or wanting for weapons or ammunition. They have a stronger economy during the SMO, than they had before it.
They have more nuclear weapons than we do and many more warheads. The United States voluntarily removed its multiple independently targeted reentry vehicles (MIRVs) and refit the missile with single warheads, the Russians did not and while they might have a relatively equal amount of ICBMs as we do, they have multiple warheads on each one. So, it’s not like the West is beating its chest against a much weaker, highly outgunned adversary, if anything it’s kicking the shins of a much larger gorilla.
The diplomatic exchange is highlighted in this Newsweek piece and shows the lack of seriousness the U.S. Government demonstrates at a time when all professionalism should be exerted to deter disaster. The message is that the U.S. is trying to goad the Russians into a nuclear exchange. I can only sympathize with the Russians who must wonder why the United States is so willing to engage in nuclear war. Already having crossed the many lines it said it would not cross, I wonder what is keeping Putin on a leash. Is it that he cannot conceive of such reckless behavior on the world stage?
Is he waiting for the outcome of the election? Is he waiting for internal turmoil in the U.S. distracted by riots and explosions before he acts? Is he waiting for an economic disaster to befall the Western nations, a disaster that he has rescued himself and Russia from by being sanctioned out of their banking system? Having watched Russia most of my life, I am a bit puzzled why Putin retains such power in the face of all of the insults he’s been subject to from the West.
He seems to be playing to an American audience a lot of the time, pointing out the irrational statements made by those at the highest levels of our government, as if not to incur their hatred should he be forced to act against the United States by the actions of a seemingly incompetent and dangerous president.
From Putin’s perspective, he’s probably not sure who is making the decisions in the United States anyway. None of us know. I’m sure he has better intelligence than we do, but he’s in a precarious place with the American people and he knows it. I don’t think he wants an all-out nuclear war that would be likely if the American people thought he was out of control and determined to have it. Clearly, he does not want an all-out nuclear war for the same reason no sane person does.
It would be the end of the world. Those who happened to live out of the blast zones would suffer freezing temperatures. The equatorial regions would be wholly unprepared and the sub zero temperatures would last several years. It would be worse in the Northern Hemisphere with radiation and fallout combining with the massive drop in temperatures. It wouldn’t be long before there were no plants and no animals alive to eat, forcing the people to eat ze bugs, if they could find enough of them.
Maybe that’s what this is all about, just eating the bugs as a last resort. The death of everything that makes one sustainable. All out nuclear war might be the answer the globalists are looking for. It sure seems that way. They have built enough luxury bunkers to make it a plausible goal, though five years down the road, after they are capable of coming out of the bunkers, I’m not sure what they think will be left to inherit.
It wouldn’t be ten years of intermarrying and promulgating before their children chopped off their genitals and went to war with each other. If nuclear war is the answer to their problems now, they are mentally and emotionally incapable of a sustained period of promulgation before they killed each other off. One surviving Trump sign would probably break the last remaining synapse that restrained them from zombie-like homicidal maniacs devoid of a self-preservation instinct.
I wonder if Putin might, as a last resort, refuse to negotiate with anyone currently in power in the United States, citing the lack of integrity and honesty in the whole crowd, from Obama on. As he holds his finger over the button, just before incinerating the entire world, he doesn’t take one last stab at appealing to the American people directly, citing the knowledge that whoever he is negotiating with was not their choice of a leader. That the rigged elections brought the world to the brink of ruin and that if they can raise up one of their choosing to negotiate in good faith with him, an honorable peace might be found. Otherwise, he will not hesitate to launch his missiles at the first sign of belligerence.
Far from being a Russophile, I’m just trying to look at it from his perspective. He’s faced with sadistic and satanistic juveniles from the United States and trying to make sense of when he is to take them seriously. Too soon and the war he has been goaded into since 2014 turns into an offensive war and if there is any history to be written about it, it will be Russia’s fault. Unless he handles it correctly.
I also believe, with the right leadership from the U.S., someone, anyone who would abide by an agreement would be preferable to the clownshow he’s saddled with now. I think he knows that if the 2020 election had been legally and properly conducted, he wouldn’t be in the mess he is, that world politics wouldn’t be so insane. And, it’s not just Trump, it’s anyone who speaks honestly for the people of the United States, who have, when left to the truth of the matter, an incredible ability to choose correctly and to undo incorrect decisions. Carter comes to mind.
Putin now, must be trying to figure out if he has to risk historical condemnation and strike the U.S. first, decapitate it, or whether he can wait for some cooler head to appear on the scene. We must look awfully insane to most of the modern world, all of the West does, even to those from Africa, the Middle East and South America. If we’re going to be intentionally lax about our own national security, why not take advantage of it? The West has done nothing short of encouraging our own conquest, who would not respond to that?
The Hell’s Angels are apparently on their way to Colorado to challenge Tren de Aragua’s taking over of the blocks of apartment buildings in Aurora, CO. While I see that as little more than defending one’s criminal territory, it would be happening without the cops, without the sheriffs, without the SWAT teams we all pay to be prepared and ready with tactical skills, doing a single thing to remedy the situation, making themselves irrelevant. The only thing I hope that accomplishes, is not a reliance on the Hell’s Angels, but an understanding of growing a cohesive counterstrike potential among the people. Any government interference from those who stood silently by and called it, an act of imagination, should be treated with the same lack of consideration. Brush them aside.
