fact is, unless you are ‘boots on the ground’
YOU DO NOT KNOW and to claim otherwise,,,,
I don’t KNOW the truth, but I do know that what I am being told by one group, and what this other group is saying, and what that group is saying,,, You can winnow the the truth out of it, but NO ONE IS TELLING THE FULL TALE, and that makes me suspect EVERY source as politicized bullshit.
But we knew all that, didn’t we?
Simple Fact: The winning side NEVER screams for help.
So, if Ukraine is doing so frickin’ hot, why are they screaming for help?
And I am not going to go into the whole “war crimes” platitudes that are surfacing this week. That, to me is just more bullshit that will be sussed out after the fact, but in the meantime, its war, people do bad shit, people die, and black flag ops are commonplace.
“Treason doth not prosper: for if treason were to prosper, none dare call it treason.”
First off, This is not OUR war, and that we are being pulled into it ‘for reasons’, alarms me. Yes, we are being pulled into because the nitwits in command of the levers of power have zero clue what the fuck they are doing. Simple solution was to leave well enough alone from the git-go and not carrot/stick Ukraine with NATO and EU memberships. BUT NOESSSSS!!!!!! Russia is the EVIL EMPIRE and has been since the Cold War and THE DEEPSTATE has a hard-on for destroying that country. All of this would be a moot point if back in ’92 if Slick Willie had welcomed Vlad into NATO with open arms. The Cold War was over, and Russia was building back as best they could. Even though the Cold War was over, those in power continued to see a threat in the shadows. Is that threat real now?
I say no. Potential, yes, but outright; no. Our biggest issue resides in the anonymous hallways in dark buildings all along the beltway. People that have never shown faces in elections and are appointed for life with no accountability. Those are the enemies that work behind the scenes to steal elections, and drive agendas that the puppets parrot. How else can you explain Brain-ded and cackles camel-toe reaching the highest offices in the country. They certainly did NOT do it by their stunning character or egalitarian drive.
So now, here we are, a pair in position to take the fall when things go sour (and they are), a master Chess player at the helm of mother Russia, who allowed the puppets on this shore to make their castle move (sanctions) then mated the move with “Rubles for Oil”, driving a stake in the heart of our Vampiric Petro-Dollar. And at a time when many other countries have been working on a way to get out from under the ponderous debt our Dollar now represents. Think BRICS and such.
And there is a part of me that keeps looking at China and thinking Sun-tzu thoughts. Why fight if you can get your enemy to destroy itself? Especially if you can buy the leadership and pay them to put the poison in the bloodstream,,,
Ugly times people, that is the ONLY truth I can see currently. we are headed into UgLy times. Keep your friends and family close. Make sure you KNOW they are friends, ,,, And if you have only a few,,, Work on that.(and that’s where I am at, need to work on group)





Britain wasn’t winning in 1940, but they were screaming for help.
So, by your rationale, what is needed here, if one sees a drowning man, is that he should be handed an anchor, and given our best wishes.
Ukraine is not our war.
We shouldn’t ever send anyone there to fight it for them.
That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t give them everything we can to fight it themselves.
The offer of NATO membership wasn’t for Ukraine’s benefit, it was done, out loud, to trigger Russia into starting the exact war gotten, as a distraction to a disastrous administration headed off the cliff all by itself.
That doesn’t make Russia the good guy, and it doesn’t argue for leaving Ukraine swinging. The range of things that can be done to aid Ukraine short of joining the war is enormous.
And “Rubles For Oil” is going to explode in Vlad’s face, because he’s trying to sell a commodity over which he holds no monopoly, at a 33% markup over world retail.
This is like McDonald’s jacking burger prices by 33%, and then wondering why Burger King and Carl’s Jr. suddenly beat them out of market share hand over fist. And no one is going to set their dollars on fire, any more than you’d burn your own house down.
Putin’s trying to issue himself a credit card, but the rest of the world isn’t going to go for it.

My point was pointed towards the media spreading BS on how WELL the Kraine is doing but the the truth is the opposite. Nothing more,
The only people with a dog in this fight are the people sitting in power that were using the area as a money laundering enterprise, AND Deepstate because they never got their heads out of the cold war.
Believe as you wish, I’ll keep looking
