Please stick to the topic.

The current open thread for other issues is here.

Comments

On the apparently belated lowering of the level in the Khakovka reservoir: ZNPP uses this for cooling water so perhaps RF had the flood risk in mind when they decided to do a cold shutdown of ZNPP, which would then allow to safely lower Kakhovka reservoir if necessary.
I thought it was tardiness but RF might have had the dambuster threat in mind all along.

You can put Zelly in a washing machine, still he won’t become an ethnic Ukrainian or a Slav. The thinking process cannot be changed. Heard of a Moses, who was raised by Egyptians, since he was a little baby, who went against the same Egyptians later?

Lovers of unintentional humour from NATO bigwigs should google DW Conflict Zone Jens Soltenberg interview. The event took place on October 19, 2022. Sarah Kelly interviewed the NATO ‘boss’ to get his thoughts on the half-assed Ukraine debacle. Ms Kelly asked a lot of embarrassing questions and ‘boss’ Stoltenberg gave a lot of delightfully vague and evasive answers. I dunno who is in charge of NATO’s war in Ukraine, but it’s hard to believe it could be Mr Stoltenberg.

Kareem 309 is totally right.
No sane – as opposed to the cultist clique – person can swallow the tale that Russia has been preparing for this war since 2014 while simultaneously seeing that it (by even the claims of Putin apologists) entered the conflict with a huge shortage in manpower. Fortunately, Russian popular anger is still something Putin cannot afford to ignore, which is why at long last we see Russia look as though it is serious about fighting to win.
Whether it not it is actually serious about fighting to win will be seen when those forces moved into Belarus do something. If they invade Ukranazistan, Russia is fighting to win. If they’re withdrawn, then it is not.

Historical review from 2021 to now by the New Yorker, from us/ukriane perspective, focusing on arms supplies discussions back and forth and shifts in Ukr/Russia battles etc.
concludes with

Reznikov (Ukraine Defense Minister) is certain that such deliveries are inevitable. “When I was in D.C. in November, before the invasion, and asked for Stingers, they told me it was impossible,” he said. “Now it’s possible. When I asked for 155-millimetre guns, the answer was no. HIMARS, no. HARM, no. Now all of that is a yes.” He added, “Therefore, I’m certain that tomorrow there will be tanks and ATACMS and F-16s.
With the help of the U.S. and NATO, he went on, Ukraine’s military has shown that Russia can be confronted. “We are not afraid of Russia,” he said. “And we are asking our partners in the West to also no longer be afraid.”

Not that anyone ought to be cheering for the massive rearmament of Germany in any way, but it goes to show how the further weakening and decline of Germany runs now in parallel to its inability to fund its own armed forces, just as it sent valuable weaponry and ammunition to be demolished while fighting against one of its most strategic energy suppliers.
The result will be even further dependence on the USA, at a time when their own critical infrastructure has been openly sabotaged by them. The sheer idiocy of such policy is truly staggering. Otto von Bismark must be doing somersaults 24/7 in his mausoleum.

Eva Bartlett report from Donbass frontline writes:
While in the DPR in October, I went to a front line outpost 70 m from Ukrainian forces in Avdeevka, according to the Donbass commanders I spoke with.
While many in the West think that this conflict started in February 2022, those following events since 2014 are aware of the origins of the conflict & the sacrifices which the people of the Donbass republics have endured, particularly those fighting to protect their families and loved ones.
Just as the heroes of the Syrian Arab Army were maligned, so too have Donbass forces have been maligned by Western media, though both are defending their homelands from terrorist forces trained and funded by the West. Terrorists given the freedom to commit endless atrocities against Donbass civilians.

Ukrainian Power Outages, the US 101st Airborne, and Russia’s Next Big Move
– Russian missile and drone strikes continue targeting and crippling Ukraine’s power grid,
– Ukraine is attempting to target a major dam at Nova Kakhkovka to flood the Dnieper River and disrupt Russian supply lines to Kherson city;
– Western analysts admit Ukraine is in a critical situation and risks being completely cut off from its Western sponsors;
– The US is putting pieces in place to set up a buffer zone in Ukraine to prevent Russian forces from taking western Ukraine and perhaps even Odesa to prevent what’s left of Ukraine from becoming landlocked.

It is even more complicated than that.
Narrative could be that NATO is trying to seize a bit of a north-east Black Sea to be able to establish the base there, but…
It has been one of the main reasons for RF to get Crimea under its wing.
Sevastopol was leased from Ukraine since 1990 and as soon as West started to poke about, trying to kick Russian Military out, RF seized it with a ‘green men’ action.
Having a base somewhere in Romania or wherever about, it is not as same as having it in Crimea.
Now there are rumours of US/101 Army-whatever-they-are going to seize Odessa and create a buffer there. That is nonsense.
As they do not listen. If anyone openly interferes, as in ‘we go to Ukraine to kill some Ruskies’, RF will retaliate hard and pretty much at will and where it thinks it should.
I hardly believe that RF will then care is it NATO territory or not.
As for Donbass that is gone pretty much out of Ukraine equation, being rich in minerals and metals I do not see how what is the rest of Ukraine is ever going to repay what they owe to the West.
Basically, Zelensky and his backers and even handlers are stuck knee-deep in debt and nobody can even foresee where the money to be repaid their creditors is coming from.
Throwing money on Ukraine to keep it afloat is every day more obvious to even mainstream logic and presents itself as a bottomless pit.
And Donbass is gone from their grasp, crop-fields gone too and electricity export capacity too.
And so far all the thrown billions a resulting in smouldering cities and devastated infrastructure and hardly existing and functioning country.
Good job, carry on.

Putin eating up Musk’s market share, probably in Ukraine:

Russia launched its first satellite designed to provide broadband internet on Sunday, a state-owned analog of StarLink and OneWeb. The Soyuz-2.1brocket carried the next-generation Skif-D satellite and three Gonets-M satellites in the year’s first launch from Vostochny cosmodrome in the Russian Far East.

I find it odd that this is Russia’s first attempt at satellite broadband though.

People thinking the airborne McDonalds in the number of 1000 will “take” Odessa are using too much weed.
What is very possible is that Russia will give the rest of 80% of Ukr to nato, just to escape the war they fail to stabilize and that is spreading into Belgorod. But to invade Odessa using 1000 trannies and keep it as base for nazis against Russia’s will, Syria-style, is not possible.

I agree in general that Z has almost no agency and that it’s probably a mistake even to use him as a shorthand for his sponsors and patrons.
I think in this specific case it’s more about Z (his backers) insisting on the full return of now-Russian parts of former Ukraine as a precondition of peace, rather than the pre-SMO intent to recapture Donbas and Crimea which triggered SMO.
As you suggest, though, it’s still bollocks, because we’ve got one bunch of yanks complaining about, in effect, some other bunch of yanks jamming up negotiations by getting Z to insist on the return of all lost territory.
My interest was in the reference to the 100% UK support.

Another plane fell on a populated area during a test flight. This time in Irkutsk.
Shoigu discussed the situation in Ukraine by phone with his French counterpart, the Russian Defense Ministry said. Sergei Shoigu, during the negotiations, brought to the attention of his French counterpart the possibility of a provocation by Ukraine using a “dirty bomb”.
I’m sure Macaron, pumping banned mines into Ukr, really cares. He might be behind many provocations there, like the multiple shelling of chemical plants that everyone forgot about.

Interesting change of tactics:
https://t.me/ZandVchannel/35935
NATO IN SHOCK
Russian cruise missiles suddenly changed course and then destroyed all targets
During the massive cruise missile attacks on Ukraine, the Russians used an unusual tactic today, with which they completely overwhelmed NATO and the Ukrainian Air Defense Forces.
According to Ukrainian sources, during the strike in the western part of the country, Russian cruise missiles suddenly changed their trajectory, avoiding the air defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, and launched unexpected attacks on Vinnytsia and Lutsk.
According to the information provided, despite their fairly simple and predictable flight, some of the rockets changed their trajectory and instead of flying through the airspace over the Khmelnytskyi and Ternopil regions, the rockets unexpectedly approached from the Ivano-Frankivsk region.
Then they suddenly turned to the north and precisely targeted targets in the Lutsk region.
The reason for this is the deployment of air defense systems in these regions, which are supposed to protect the weapons supply routes from the West.

However, due to the unpredictable trajectory of the missiles, the Ukrainian army could not do anything.

Sending a relatively small contingent of light infantry into an artillery war seems like the sort of thing the current crop of leaders in the US would pitch as a “game changer”. Having learned not a single lesson from the 20 years of failure that characterize their foreign policy, they continue on. Perhaps they’ll send the other portions of the 101st to Taiwan. As any serious strategist knows, fighting a war on two fronts when both are half a world a way is the recipe for success and displaying the “full spectrum dominance” of the hegemon.

The 101 is highly unlikely to enter Ukraine as, as far as I see it and I might be wrong, the moment their first boot hits the ground as the initiator of a conflict event, Article 5 goes out the window and Russia can attack mainland US or ships (but probably not the US on non US territory) without NATO blowback.
Is this correct?

Thank you. Shows its way too complex a topic for casual commentary/conversation!
I read long ago that the word Pharaoh is Yemeni. So have theory that early Js were a trading network with tribal and commercial networks who developed contract law conventions, trade between jurisdictions in which they served as brokers/intermediaries and also bankers.
Then there is a whole medieval period you glossed over with many expulsions and not sure if these groups fit the Khazarian narrative or not, maybe these were the continuation of the more than three million said to be in Egypt during the time of Christ (presumably because that’s where there was highest trading activity still). Maybe a few strains loosely linked or essentially separate but with similar tactics centered around acting as inter-jurisdictional trading brokers who cannot help themselves from taking too high a cut?
Anyway, great post.

“Article 5 goes out the window…”
I do not think that Russia cares about some imaginary Article in some Western defence umbrella organisation.
Current command tries to avoid attacks outside of Ukraine borders, but I think as soon as US or whichever forces openly declare ‘pre-emptive protection of any part of Ukraine’ there will be very deep kinetic denial on the decision-making centres.
What is important for Russia, its doctrine and in front of the whole World is not to do the first confrontational step towards any other country, regardless of how deep it might be involved in a Mil-Int support.
Those ‘covert units’ already on the front lines, Russians do not count as more or a less hostile or even more dangerous than those average under-trained Ukrainian conscripts.
I think when Putin ordered release of foreign mercenaries, he was signalling to NATO a very simple message:
You have nothing to do here. Go away.

@455
Thank you for that voice of reason. For Russia, war is always a solution of last resort. They have suffered too much from previous wars. If they waited for years to intervene in the Ukraine, if they did all they could to wage a “mimimum” war (aka SMO) then that’s because they hate to go to war. China likewise: it started very few wars and will do anything to avoid one now. Other countries behave rather differently and of course the US and UK come to mind here. But when Russia goes to war, it does so in order to survive – that and the anger coupled with it form a very deep motivation and it is this motivation that makes Russia win (with much suffering on all sides). In the current war, one thing aggravates the situation for Russia: many of their soldiers feel they are fighting their brothers (that’s a recurrent theme on Telegram now). This begets another anger. The US/UK idiots who fomented this war will not be forgiven.

Secrets of the Federal Reserve by Eustace Mullins does cover the main protagonists involved on setting ‘it’ up.
It’s been a number of years so I’m hazy on the detail, but I do remember the Warburg name features prominently, as does JP Morgan, Kuhne, Loeb & Co, Rockefeller, Rothschild, and I think even Schiff.
I lost my copy of the book, so I’m keeping my eye out for a cheap copy.
It was, for me, an eye-opening read at the time. Recommended.
Ps. Thank you to all the barflies who provide such excellent and informative information here. You know who you are, as James inferred.
Not long to go now, and we can start building a humane global arrangement based on mutual respect. Great time to be alive.

Hating religious fools should be required for any leftist.

The Natchez Indians practiced child sacrifice – at least according to the French chroniclers. The French ended up exterminating them. Had they not, they might be useful today as alternative scapegoats.

Thanks tucnz.
I see Harvey Weinstein’s in the news again.
The two main ‘Jew’ factions are the Zionists and the Globalists. They have competing aims but pull together against everyone else.
Peace and Blessings,

G’day NJH,
Clif’s extremely well read, very intelligent and thoughtful.
I think he misdirects himself on a few issues but he’s great value.
The Antarctic region will be very interesting very soon.
Putin is a Christed individual and very competent. He’s destined to supervise the Slavic and Russian Eurasian world in the coming times.
Peace and Blessings,
Ron

Excellent- a great example of moa value add.
Here’s the problem: evolution dictates that vaccums will be filled. Eliminate the Jay’s and another group will fill the void – there’s a basic demand for credit money as it satisfies many venial sins.”
G’day B9k9,
Thank you.
I disagree.
This is the end of an epoch. The money meme is going to go away fairly soon.
In the meantime all nations will produce their own gold and asset backed interest-free money until their populations no longer need it. No one will fill the space left by the ‘Jews’, there will be no need.
Peace and Blessings,
Ron
