From what I've read though I expect a much larger Russian offensive tomorrow. Putin declined to extend the ceasefire and the little goblin guy claimed Russia violated it 'thousands of times.'
What is your logic behind activity supporting Russia? You seem to go way past just not wanting the US involved. But you lean conservative?
I just believe, briefly, that the US is safer if Russia believes it is winning, which btw it does. I also resent the hypocrisy of the left, after helping to provoke and prolong this war, then going back to the Maidan revolution, Vindman-Ciaramella call impeachment, Steele Clinton-Brennan dossier of lies from Russia, and of course Hunter laptop (
though of course Democrats are duplicitous throughout, about this). There is a '
Russia russia Russia' psychosis in the
MSM and other parts of the American left. And as well the Euro's are being driven insane by this disease, imho, even as they are similarly b
eing run into the ground by the globalists.
The dehumanization has worked on many, not just in Kiev's regime but throughout our hemisphere, imho, and I just don't react well to being told
I must recite an article of faith about Putin to comment on the war/situation.
Quote:
The comparison to earlier truces does occasion an odd thought. The type of mutual respect shared 'between Saxon and Anglo-Saxon' in WWI is nearly unthinkable in today's Ukrainian war. The Germans who met their counterparts in no man's land were said to have been 'confused' as to why the British were even fighting there. The two peoples had mutual respect, and the soldiers of each side had likely understood the inscrutable vagaries of politics had brought them to a fateful and unnecessary clash.
But in the case of the Ukraine war, two nations which should have been bound by a brotherly commonality share a kind of enmity unheard of even between the opponents of past world wars. It is nigh unthinkable for a Ukrainian soldier to praise or even look upon a Russian one as an equal, or an object worthy of even a momentary olive branch of respect. The Ukrainians have been taught to dehumanize the Russians at every turn, in every form and category of civil expression: from the strict adherence to minusculing the name 'russia', or intentionally *******izing it as ruZZia, Rascia, etc., to a long laundry list of overtly racist slursin mimicry of Nazi racialism, no lessdescribing Russians as everything from orcs to izgoi to outright subhumans, depicted in this Ukrainian-circulated meme meant to evoke the typical 'ruZZian orc' of Putin's "mir" known as 'Mordor':
These misbegotten sentiments have been lifted straight out of the CIA and MI6 playbooks, bred into the Ukrainian nationalist psyche since the days of 1948's Operation Aerodynamic. But it's part of a much broader psyop to target all Russian culture, which continues operating to this day, wherein anything of Russian origin is made to be slandered and curbed at all costs, anything even remotely adjacent to Russia curtailed and marginalized so as to never allow the Russian side of the story in the world's greatest geopolitical struggle even the slightest hint of expression.
Just consider the explosion of 'Ruscism' as a term over the past three years: an information campaign designed to reduce Russian culture to a kind of perverse and backward cargo cult led by the caricature of Vladimir Putin as a dictator-illusionist in one, weaving a spell over his impoverished flock drunk on long-past Soviet glories. Funny how the Ukrainian variant of 'lustration' never caught fire in the same way.
Though the sentiment certainly exists on the Russian sidealbeit in mostly justified doses, given the unprovoked attacks on Russian language, culture, and institutions initiated by the Ukrainiansto an immeasurably greater extent, Russian soldiers typically resign themselves to a kind of reluctant pity for their Ukrainian 'younger siblings', who are seen as propagandized into fighting against their will by the tyrannical Atlanticist machine.
More at the link. Sigh…back to war.
Sounds like the ball is, as usual, in Zelensky's court now. "
On the Clock." End the war, that way or the other, in short. The 'other' is if we cut off Kiev entirely, in which case they simply won't be able to continue it, regardless of heavy breathing in Brussels/London/Berlin.
