aquilea@277, if you were acquainted with Soviet military theory, you would know that “the offensive” was the only response that the defending Soviet army had available, doctrinally speaking (the infamous “Red Packets”). That’s why they had maps not related to the tactical situation in which they found themselves. Take a look at Soviet doctrine developed in the twenties and thirties, defence is hardly mentioned.
Lysias@280, you don’t mention the diverting of strategic air and armour assets to assist in the conquest of the Balkans. When these machines and crews returned to the eastern army for the invasion of the USSR, they had a plethora of morale and maintenance problems that could only be fixed by rest and time. Driving into the endless steppe was the last thing these formations needed to regain maximum combat efficiency.
Cheers

Especially British MI6 agents like Rezun, far right “historians” like Joachim Hoffmann, and Josef Goebbel as the inventor support this bizarre lie.
Serious historians with knowledge about the sources disagree.

How does it “clear the Nazis of any blame” if (and that is an if) both sides, Nazis and Soviets, were planning to attack each other? And frankly, you’re a moron for calling me a Nazi apologist for that. Are you the kind of person who calls people Putin apologists for pointing out a war had been going on in Ukraine for years before evil Putin ordered his heinous attack?

I had not seen that Churchill quote before.
Interesting in the context of his own political support for the Zionist homeland cause. It supports my theory that the intent of the Brits in signing the 1917 Balfour Declaration was that they would leave the UK and not interfere in their domestic finance and politics any further. We know how that worked out.

Oddly enough, that sounds a lot like Christianity (tho not western curchianity). Barbara Kingsolver(?) once said, given an either/or choice, she’d rather be a socialist than a Christian. Socialists at least get to keep some of their own stuff.

313 churchill was always short of money
years after those comments he got taken over by a collection of khazar zionist bankers called the focus group.
they gave him all the money he ever needed and he spent the lot on port,sherry,whiskey fine wines and young boys and old etonian queers.
nesta webster is mentioned in that quote she wrote some interesting books clearly churchill was reading her books in the earlier years.

It doesn’t really matter, if the Ukraine joins the EU, that is what’ll be left of the Ukraine, but what the use that Ukraine to the EU is the question, without much to offer to the EU.

Ecosia and DuckDuckGo both showed actual stories from both sites using the same search term (there are over 27,000 stories on my site). If I enter a search term like ukraine, it won’t return any site that doesn’t support the status quo.

🇷🇺⚡️About Putin’s speech.
1. The break with the West is irreversible and final. No pressure from the West will change that.
2. Russia has regained its sovereignty and will not give it back to anyone. Strengthening political and economic sovereignty are top priorities.
3. The old world is collapsing and the era of American dominance is over. Now a new world is being formed.
4. Despite all the support from the West for Ukraine, the operation in Ukraine will continue until all the goals are achieved.
5. Economically, Russia will not close – the emphasis will be on domestic economic development and the reorientation of trade to countries independent of the US.
6. The EU is no longer seen as a subjective player – solely as a collection of American vassals devoid of military-political subjectivity.
7. Big business is once again offered to make a choice – either “nationalization” in Russia, or deprivation of assets in the West.
In general, the main leitmotif of the entire speech is that the ship is on the same course, there will be no turning back. Those who are still waiting or are afraid of the upcoming changes in Russia and in the world are once again offered to make a choice – with whom they are.

“ you don’t know what communism is” WEF topic
Caught you! You have no idea what the WEF is and what they stand for. Go look it up. Here is their famous quote
“ in 2035 you will own nothing and be happy”
Posted by: Bobolinski | Jun 17 2022 14:59 utc | 288
A cartload of rocks displays greater signs of intelligent activity.
“in 2035 you will own nothing and be happy” -> promotion of renting, leasing and subscription models over sales, within a capitalist, corporate framework.
This has as much to do with communism as the Pope with Mazdeism.
********************
Yes I know they want to be rentier oligarchs. The point is that they want the rest of society to live under a technocracy. Technocracy is communism by another name. They also want to use biotechnology and digital currency to enable a technological police state. They seem to be in control of all the western governments at this time. The Biden regime “ build back better” slogan was taken right from a WEF symposium.

Dude.
Where the f**k have you learned about communism? In Fallout?
Because not even Dr. Strangelove, this is one step away from General Ripper’s “precious bodily fluids”.
“Yes I know they [WEF] want to be rentier oligarchs.”
No, they don’t WANT to be – they ALREADY are. And both are sufficient reasons not to have anything to do with communism: communism seeks the abolition of rent-seeking and rentiers amongst many other things, so rentier oligarchs actual or potential would be SUICIDAL to promote it.
“The point is that they want the rest of society to live under a technocracy. Technocracy is communism by another name.”
No, it is not the same, for f**k’s sake. Technocracy is a style of governance, not a fully developed ideology; and not privative of communism by any means.
“They also want to use biotechnology and digital currency to enable a technological police state.”
Western liberal democracies are already deep in this shit. For a second time – it’s not “they want to” – it’s they want to keep at it.
They seem to be in control of all the western governments at this time. The Biden regime “ build back better” slogan was taken right from a WEF symposium.
Further proving my point that it has jacks**t to do with communism.

Seethe, honey, seethe.

Nice attempt at projection. We’re sticking to historically settled definitions instead of trying to redefine them to cover for ignorance and suit our momentary needs. They’re also widely recognized internationally instead of being contingent on the americanist power struggle du jour.
What you’re saying is some “international rules-based order”-gauge Gringo BS.
“and not facing the truth that your precious, sacred ideology is underpinning these major destructive leftist movements today.”
These aren’t leftist in any meaningful sense except that there are many more things even more to the right. This is the extreme rightwards skewing of the Overton Window in motion, to the point of quixotic delusion.
“Cultural Marxism blah blah blah I’m very american and can’t tell shit from whipped chocolate”
Cultural Marxism is neither “cultural” nor “marxism”. This is an american right-wing media boogeyman that doesn’t withstand the most superficial of scrutinies. I already schooled some other of your clones last week, I give you the same choice:
-We can do this the easy and quick way where you drop this fantastical term at once.
-We can do this the hard and long way where you repeatedly fail to characterize it as marxist.
I’m keen on both, so knock yourself out.
“Maybe you should throw away or burn you das kapital? Why don’t you go to a Trump MAGA rally next time one comes your way. All are welcome!”

Nice takedown. Bobo has swallowed “Cultural Marxism”, straight up as received wisdom, when it’s nothing but a nonsense Orwellian construct designed (quite effectively) to divide and rule. It’s a distraction from the class war already won by elites. I hope Bobolinski sticks around to learn something.

Every week there’s some bonehead trying to make the same trite, fantastical, hackneyed failure of an argument.
Who knows, maybe they’re even the same one because they all have a carbon copy of the same bullshit “I can call shit whatever I want, because I’m American! D:<" attitude. They objectively and intentionally lower the level of political analysis. And when they get told that a microwave oven is not a "cultural washing machine", they start to cry. Of course I'm going to rake them over coals.

“…How does it “clear the Nazis of any blame” if (and that is an if) both sides, Nazis and Soviets, were planning to attack each other?…”
It clears the Nazis of blame because, no ‘if’ about it, the Red Army was not planning to attack the Germans
“And frankly, you’re a moron for calling me a Nazi apologist for that…”
But that is precisely what you are doing: inventing a Soviet plan to attack Germany and concluding that the Soviet side was equally as culpable as the Nazis, who actually did attack. A clear apology for the Nazis who, in your account, were merely pre-empting a Soviet attack. I’d be a moron not to call you an apologist for Hitler.
“Are you the kind of person who calls people Putin apologists for pointing out a war had been going on in Ukraine for years before evil Putin ordered his heinous attack?..”
No, I’m one of the people who points out that Russia was left with no alternative but to come to the aid of the embattled, outnumbered and endangered inhabitants of New Russia.

There appears to be some attempt of revisionism going on around here!
There were English Jewish servants of the British Empire. High in the military and civil service who resisted the concept of a post First War Palestine to be handed over to Zionist – NOT Jewish peoples – interests.
They were sidelined in the midst of WW1 and whilst away the shoddy ‘contract’ was pushed through and instantly publicised.
There are enough minutes of the Cabinet meetings which proves that. There are plenty of articles and books even if not easy to find. But also not too hard.
The True British Imperialists who thought they were working for that imperial dream for Queen and Country since Victorian era -an ‘Empress’ born from the works of the East India Companies let us not forget – most never realised there were higher powers behind the throne. Same with other ‘nation states’ – another invention.
The War in Europe was planned a decade before, as were the rail networks, the mincing machines of trench warfare and machine guns and artillery; plantations of mustard – designed to cull the proles who were always in the verge of rising and removing their chains and status as ragged trousered philanthropists – working for free as slaves for the slave owners and their masters all their lives whilst they and their families lived in deadly poverty. . Forced to live hand to mouth and rented out of all their wealth and income; remember universal suffrage was still a dream that has had to be won. Whatever democracy that was won has been watered down since with perverse systems of democracy and elections etc.
The ‘Great’ war was elongated and the potus and Fed held back with money and US boots on the grounds in great numbers until the ‘Deal’ was done – a contract written and signed and INSTANTLY published in the ‘newspapers of record’
The Balfour Declaration.
Sykes – Piqot was how it was all parcelled up.
The moment that happened the First World War was brought to an end with an expectation that the well funded Bolsheviks would be able to hand Russia over to the funders and the control of the Levant via the Palestine would be ensured and used as the fulcrum between continents for centuries to come to retain and deepen the hold over the world , its peoples and resources.
Plenty of US troops were brought to Europe, but not to fight ‘Communism’ since that was invented and funded by the famous Money families. It was to ensure the consolidation of the various European Empires and lands across the world under the new world order under the Stars and Stripes and easier controlled heads of states. The other reason was to convince these collapsing European to take on the debts by the newly minted World Banks.
Follow the Money.
The seven sisters took the world stage and the Middle East Sheikdoms were set up and run from the ‘West’ on the back of the Muslim Brotherhood nurtured under Roosevelt…and SO IT WENT.
The Money by the way also considered Uganda and even the current nazistan lands as the ‘base’ – but they thought they would have it all anyway. With the fattened ‘borderlands’ falling into their hands in due course as planned – curiously fattened by Lenin first! Why?? In the midst of a revolution why did the communists start to enlarge the Ukraine???
Anyway back to why Palestine was chosen?
It had narrative value of some biblical god promised land that could be used.
The religious Jewish peoples around the world really had no such plans, they were as much pawns in the games of what was constructed as Zionism. As they later were to provide a populace of non semetic peoples, masquerading as semites, that would occupy the crucial landscape long controlled by the Brits and French. We still have our sticky fingers all over it as the pound shop Napoleon and Winnie the poo keep being sent to use the historical narratives with their fellow new puppet Ellie in the Sky – Coke and cock fiends that they are. Whilst the ordinary populations are blinded by racism against all things Russian . SO IT GOES.
The independent study of history and Money – not the received pop history through controlled academia, news media and the propaganda entertainment and culture industries, clearly shows the truth through all the obfuscation. Obfuscation which is still in progress.
