A victory for DJT/Vance in the U.S. 2024 election will further fracture the solidarity Europe evinces toward Russophobic ventures, esp concerning Project Ukraine, and drive a wedge into EU bloc initiatives.

Orban's r'ship w/ DJT & other influential figures in the Trump-world orbit, like Tucker Carlson, might shift the fulcrum from Brussels eastward--not relocating the EU HQ itself of course but dislocating the underlying power differential enough to create a unique opening for other Major Players to step forward.

Truth-telling regarding the NordStream sabotage, perhaps spiced up w/ whistleblowers delivering damning testimony, will signal an unavoidable spate of self-examination.

OTAN's investment in Afghanistan, helmed primarily by the U.S., did not break the alliance like Project Ukraine has. The damage, irreparable, heralds an era of reckoning.

Should Trump win, he won't be able to leave Ukraine. Simply cry "Putin puppet!" and he will fold, just as he twice cucked out of leaving Syria.

Anyway, Simplicus is correct in that the West has vastly more resources at its disposal than Russia and China, which is why Russia needed to move quickly and present the West with a fait accompli.

Nah.

The lies of Russiagate, and the accusations of being a Putin puppet, marked the Cheezits & juice-box phase of the PTB

Close examination of the footage from many different cameras says there were two shooters aiming at Trump. If the Trump bloody ear was not staged but an actual close miss, then the shooter missed, Notice that Crooks was killed by one shot from a competent Secret Service sniper. None of the subsequent shots from the hitmen? shooters even came close after the near miss. Instead of shots injuring the SS surrounding Trump a bystander was killed and 2 or 3 injured, none of them particularly close to Trump.- amateurish shooting.

The idea that Trump/Vance will take on the deep state or change their trajectory, is pure fantasy. Vance's benefactor, Peter Thiel is embedded with the deep state up to his eyeballs, considering that his company Palantir is in business to provide the CIA, NSA, FBI, U.S. military, etc. with the latest Orwellian surveillance and data collection/mining AI, software systems.

Not saying DJT/Vance will take on the deep state: my comment addressed the changes their admin might create among the OTAN partners.

The deep state has been hard-baked into the American system since Allen Dulles's involvement w/ the OSS during WWII [if not before.] Dulles morphed that agency into the CIA after the war & it has strengthened ever since.

Regardless of who wins the 2024 election, we will have the deep state.

The Polish army is still too small to do much of anything. I guess it could invade Germany. Like the Baltics, the Poles got puffed up with all the US talk of “New Europe”. Suckers.

For all the talk about how the US is pulling strings and engineering global events, it should be considered that empires require stability. Being able to create instability is not helpful to maintaining control over the long term. The creation of instability is only an advantageous strategy if you can step in and establish stability after the fact.

That’s something the US has not been able to do for a long time, nor is there any indication that it has the capability to do so in any of the major hotspots. Nor does the argument that war is simply good for business hold when the US MIC appears completely incapable of supplying war. It can’t even manage to paint US equipment from desert tan before shipping it to Ukraine.

Expand full comment

Is it really small though? Wikipedia lists it with 302 000 of active personnel as of 2024. Ukraine had even less men on 24 February 2022 and they still could hold well enough to begin proper mobilisation. Poland has a population of 40 millions and military reserves of 600 000, so they can create significant forces fast enough and bring reinforcements with little problem

Most foreign fighters that died in Ukraine came from Poland. Even if we account for actual servicemen under poor guise of volunteers and vacationers, it's a sizeable chunk of personnel, some of which came solely to combat Russia in what they views as a historical rematch.

That was before the Poles saw what this warfare was really like. Lots of Ukrainians happily fell on their swords back then too in a 'Hollywood' war hero haze.

Now? You have got to be kidding me.....

How many soldiers from Poland have died in the Ukraine? 200? 2,000, 20,000? You have personal knowledge of their motives?

How many were mercenaries proper, how many 'advisors' etc?

You think the mass of Poles think of this prospect of war with Russia as if it were a football game - a re match?

Is it possible to be more trivial?

If you have facts and figures...who's been counting the dead?

Judging a nation by the number of it's mercenaries is not efficient, it is an useful measure of it's poverty or desperation, besides say 10,000 desperates in a nation of 40million is way below EU average

To fight Russia how many active duty well trained combat soldiers will you and Poland need - one million? Plus the logistics and support soldiers, you estimate 3 to one or more?

Plus the infra proper - have you made a survey with costs of the infra requirements for a 1 million/2 million man army? Has someone done this for you?

Where will you obtain the money men and high level efficient organisation?

You are planning conscription? or you are planning to depend on volunteers?

Have you assurances of NATO support? To what extent do you believe this to be a reliable b efficient?

Have you US billateral support?

As far as losses go, Mysl Polska estimated them to be circa 10.000 in late 2023. That's not much for a large country, but A) this is KIA alone and B) their whole army is 170k. It's not a proportion that may be simply overlooked or waved away. It's a trend.

Obviously, they're doing it firmly believing in American nuclear umbrella above their own nation.

It's not a matter of defence, but OFFENCE. Russia has less than zero interest in invading Poland. Poland offers nothing but headaches.

Russia's interest is in peace and stability to re-orient to the Orient with infrastructure, which is why the US and lapdogs are doing everything they can to destroy peace wherever they see it.

Poland would have to do something VERY STUPID INDEED with regards to Belarus - who are now happily polishing and displaying the MILITARY AGREEMENT WITH CHINA prominently - or Kaliningrad, to make the Bear's gaze turn to them on that level.

Will US propaganda and PR manage to do this to the romantic Poles? Possibly. On the OTHER hand, Poland may well end up feeding and supplying "Western Ukraine" while quietly absorbing it, and the Ukies may give them such a headache themselves, it will cool their heels for further expansionism.

Expand full comment

That’s assuming the Polish economy and society can handle such a mobilization. It also assumes the Polish military can be equipped to those numbers. The Polish military buildup is mostly wishful thinking and long term contracts. The US is blowing its savings on Ukraine and Israel. And the Polish economy is heavily dependent on the EU, which is struggling.

I don’t doubt that if it were invaded the Poles would fight valiantly, but that’s not what we’re talking about. We’re taking about the Poles invading Belarus or being used like Ukraine to bait Russia into a conflict. We’re also seeing a different conflict in Ukraine than would be the case in a war with Poland. I would expect the electricity and fuel infrastructure of Poland would be gone in a week if it decided to have a war with Russia for the US.

It does not matter. Russia won't be playing nice with Poland as it does with Ukraine now, treating it as brotherly nation.

In Poland's case Russia will use its vast stockpiles of advanced tactical nuclear weapons to quickly eliminate Polish armed forces without causing too much land contamination.

Expand full comment

Lex is right, Russia can remove all of Poland's electricity, rail lines and port facilities within a week, and Russia doesn't need nuclear weapons to do that. High-precision conventional warheads can destroy everything without worrying about radioactive fallout or the fallout of world public opinion.

The real worry is that a NATO on the edge of utter defeat would be very tempted to use nuclear weapons because NATO does not have many missiles with conventional warheads. Too few missiles, too many targets. NATO planners could not possible destroy enough Russian targests to change the outcome. Everyone knows that, BTW.

Expand full comment

Russia has an advantage in conventional means. However its advantage in tactical nuclear weapons (quantity and quality of both weapons and carriers) is much greater.

It is not possible to quickly and effectively wipe out or seriously cripple war effort of such country as Poland. Look at Ukraine. No doubt if Russia unsleashed its conventional might in full the Ukraine would have been in tatters. However it would have been still capable of conducting warfare.

No, to avoid prolongation and unecesssary casulaties all important targets (airfields, military bases, MIC factories and labs, etc) within Polish territory should be hit with tactical nuclear weapons.

There won't be Article 5 protection from NATO in case Poland tries to attack Russia. Russia knows this, Poland knows this, NATO knows this.

Polish or German army aren't as important as American infrastructure laid out on top of them. Now that Germany had been scheduled for dismantling of its industry and general decline, Poland will accept its role as primary American lackey in the region due to better cost effectiveness. It's an ethnic monolith, it's uniformly anti-Russian and it's combat-capable and combat-willing population reserves are vast. I somewhat called it under previous article.

If Poland is putting in a bid to be the next proxy, so what - however the time required is hardly there, it took a long time to prepare the Ukraine, now what's the time line 2028? 2030?

That enough time? all those F35's and expensive SK tanks and what not, delivery dates when?

If the bid was accepted, I reckon most military age Poles would p off to their Med villas rather than face war with an RF who would cut electricity generation and imports to zero within a week, and let them sit in their trenches for as long as they like

Still, high interest rates are a problem, but I think the Ukraine war will be over a lot faster than most think. Ukraine is done and Israel is ascendent and will use nukes against Iran, which it has already tried to do according to Pepe. PLEASE NOTE THE WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST AND IN UKRAINE ARE THE SAME WAR. I think the only way to stop Israeli aggression is for Russia or China to give Iran 20 or so nukes. Putin: "You go into a room where everyone has a gun and logical decisions can be make."

I think our esteemed host is being WAY too generous to the US and EU (UK counts for about nothing). Our industrial capacity is a fraction of what it used to be and our will to fund or fight wars is very low. The domestic economy here is crap.

The traditional Russian way of chess is closed board, positional, long-game, grinding, slowly converting minor advantage into bigger advantage and eventual collapse of the opponent. Karpov maybe best exemplifies this kind of play.

The opposite end of that spectrum is open board, tactical, gambit, sacrifice and chaos in an attempt to lead your opponent into positions they are uncomfortable with and taking advantage of the chaos. Best exemplified by Tal who said, "You must take your opponent into a deep dark forest where 2+2=5, and the path leading out is only wide enough for one."

When it comes to war, I think there is a good chess metaphor to be made regarding how the West fights versus how Russia fights.

To extend that metaphor, the West offered Ukraine in a gambit/sacrifice. More of a minor piece sacrifice, say a knight, than a pawn gambit. The idea being positional gain, mobility and future tactical opportunity makes up for the lost piece. The Russian side accepted the gambit, taking the material advantage believing they can mitigate some of the potential disadvantages with precise play.

Often the winner in matches with contrasting styles is the one who makes their opponent fight in the manner opposite of the one they are comfortable with....without sacrificing too much. Get them to play your game.

I'm comfortable with the way Russia is approaching this conflict. Making "big arrow" moves or increasing the pace of operations would be a tell that Russia is in trouble. Until Ukrainian defenses start to break, and that sort of maneuver is appropriate, that is.

A year ago I predicted this conflict, or at least this phase of a bigger conflict would wrap up 2025, 4th quarter. It is tempting to bump the date into 2026, but I believe we are seeing Ukrainian defenses beginning to crumble.

Russia needs to poke at least one more hole in the line like they did with Avdiivka. The amount of Ukrainian resources required to prevent that flower from fully blooming has been considerable. Once a second hole is punched the pace will pick up until Ukraine is losing 75-125 Sq. Km daily. At that point collapse East of the Dnieper becomes imminent.

Russia & China have a proclivity toward law-congruent moves: that is, the leaders of both countries revere the essence of the UN's statutes & seem keen on enacting those statues pragmatically. The Declaration VVP & President Xi signed in May reinforce this. Both leaders are prudent & strategic.

In #9 [above] Big Simp spoke to the West's obsession w/ exerting pressure on Russia in order to bring about its civic/political fracture--not necessarily defeating Russia on the battlefield. S mentions the Prigozhin *March* as evidence, in the eyes of the West, of a weakening Russia, also the dismissal of military commanders for corruption.

While the West has perseverated on these signs of weakness, so-called, it has itself fallen into a crumple zone, the most dramatic example of which was the abrupt termination of Joe's political career. The unmasking of Joe was an unmasking of the West, a slippage that revealed its own frailty, quite literally in the toothpick-stiff frailty of Joe's decline.

The U.S.-led West is like a video game character who in order to mete out damage must necessarily do grievous damage to itself--they lose a measure of health, they lose an upgrade, they lose strength.

The more the U.S.-led West puts pressure on Russia, expecting a rupture, the more it strains & stresses its own constituion

The financial system has been revealed as a total fraud; just check John Titus work. A matter of a few weeks before the 2023 bank failures he presented an analysis of the FDIC data on banking solvency. It's clear that accounting chicanery is paramount in maintaining psychological beliefs in check, but at any moment panic can take hold.

The Final Chapter in the Economic Scam.

Pompous, self-appointed Financial Experts like Wolf Richter claim, if you hold a U.S. Government Bond that you paid $1million for, and it is only worth $800,000 today, then you don't really have a loss, so long as you don't sell it, and live another 25 years when the U.S. Government pays you back the $1million.

I believe that the war will continue through 2027. Ukraine does not have the political capacity to end the war, we learned that in 2022. US/NATI have no desire to end the war, it is working marvelous deeds in strengthening NATO and the MIC; we also learned that in 2022. Putin doesn’t want the war to end, he is using it to clean house, rebuild the RU militar industrial capacity, and re-organize the global south.

The final arbiter is money. Even world war makes sense if US wins and distributes wealth after the war. But US & UK have not built empires by throwing good money after the bad. If there is no victory in sight, and there are significant losses, there will be no war.

From a different point of view, the continuation of war, means there is a belief in US that Russia might/will crumble.

US is losing the kinetic war in Ukraine, hopes to win the financial, societal attrition war, and is at the crossroad, either cut the losses and exit, or escalate to win.

Cutting the losses and exiting is not a defeat, if Ukraine is not blocked from NATO, and if pressure on Russia can be continued. Giving up territory that cannot be retaken is not difficult.

Accepting minimal Russian demands is very very difficult, and probably impossible for US and NATO, and absolutely impossible to Ukrainians.

Do Ukrainians have to accept RUssian demands for ceasefire?

If Ukrainian defense crumbles, Ukrainians will have to accept Russian demands.

Currently they don't, because although losing, they have not lost definitely, conclusively.

If they manage to keep the front until November, Trump will have all the reasons to threaten with escalation and expect success.

War will continue, Russia will call Trump's bluff, and that means escalation. War still hasn't answered the key questions, who will crumble first.

Stalin would have done it differently, e.g. would never have retreated from Kiev, would have done full mobilization much earlier, would have killed electricity in the first winter, i.e would have used maximal force whenever possible...

Just three more months before the next round of escalation.

"The traditional Russian way of chess is closed board, positional, long-game, grinding, slowly converting minor advantage into bigger advantage and eventual collapse of the opponent. Karpov maybe best exemplifies this kind of play."

I don't know who told you that. It's as if Stalin's Ten Hammer Blows, Marshal Bagration, Operation August Storm or the invasions of Hungary or Czechoslovakia never happened, to give the first examples to come to mind.

I have an observation, Sir , a simple comment

.

Both ScKamala and Trump supporters, sic, feel like the opposing side is literally an existential threat to the future of scAmerica, sic. A civil war for so-called abortion. Rights , unlikely.

But I never cease to be amazed by how polarized and how much one side hates the other . They painted the freeway steel structure around SF killafornia in blue. Elsewhere they paint them red.

But the freeways are not in the best of shape. Despite the dammm paint.

If I had a question, twould be why?

Why Americans hate Russia so dammm much, the most extreme racism I've ever seen in modern times.

But I get it, born in Moscow, that my own mom was ashamed of Russia, too bad.

She was wrong . America gave the world the blues, and jazz. But Russia gave the world a soul and love of God.

Why can't we all just dance to some good Latin or Cajun music and smoke a joint and be friends, shit.

So I fear a quick Russian victory now, and that is why the foot drag and less so but still cautious with the pace of attrition., and advance...

But what I really fear is if Russia loses, then the birds will stop singing and the flowers will stop growing.

Why can't the West see it?

Mom took me out of Russia, but she couldn't take Russia out of me.

After several decades, one day after 2014

I looked in the mirror and saw a Russian man

.

Wow, where did he come from?

As important as Abortion is, the real fight is over competing realities. The left has lost the plot and is finally spiraling into autogenocidal actions. The right has awakened to this, and at some level realizes they will at a miminum lose their wealth, but more likely their children etc per the Sam Hyde memes. Even so, Trump is incredibly flawed and probably is not the ideal man for the times. We are reverting to aristocratic warfare, so we need a warrior leader, not a merchant.

I live in a blue state and I know a couple hundred middle and upper-class people well enough to know their strongly-held views. Not one of the gives a damn about Ukraine. Not one. Yes, a few people will rant about "that evil Putin" if you make the mistake of asking them, but that opinion is not going anywhere, and will never go anywhere. Here's my proof: When you try to get Putin-haters to explain *why* they think Putin is evil, they refuse to discuss it. They refuse because they don't know anything, and they know they know nothing. The refusal of people to discuss *why* they hate Putin or Russia has been noted by almost everyone in America who doesn't hate Russia. The haters might intentionally vote for a warmonger in the elections, but the "hatred" of Putin or of Russia is very shallow and could easily evaporate. As soon as they realize this hatred hits them in the wallet, the support is gone.

Really biggest question is whether US will accept Pompeo‘s strategy, escalate to deescalate. Threatening with 500 billion $ Land Lease worth of military help to Ukraine that would theoretically enable Ukraine to keep the front stable, prepare counteroffensive, and harm Russia, and possibly weaken Putin is more palatable to US deep state, pundits, foreign policy establishment, politicians from both Democratic as well a Republican party, than accepting a defeat.

But it is against Trump‘s deepest instincts, to enter an even dumber, and significantly more dangerous and expensive war, that would destroy all of his strategic ambitions.

Still, he might bluff.

And very rationally might decide to eliminate Putin, in a decapitating strike, that would be plausibly claimed by someone like Budanov. Because Putin is the only person in Russian leadership able to call the Trump’s bluff.

Putin‘s life has never been in greater danger.

You do not get Trump.

AIPAC , the Israel lobby has a de facto control over US media, academy, both chambers of Congress.

Every US politician has to symbolically kiss Israel (the Wall, or visit Israel, or give a statement on supporting Israel) before he can even enter any political race.

Not only politician, every journalist, every businessman, even the richest man in the world, Elon Musk. And absolutely every aspiring academician. No more Mr Mearsheimers.

But if you watch closely, Trump is not an obeying type, he says and does what he thinks is in Israels interest, and he obeys American interest. American interest is in many ways similar to Israel's.

But Trump is the man who suggests that making peace with proUS Arab and Muslim states is the future, creating a society that is probusiness in Palestine is in Israels interest, says that Israel is bad at public relations, and that it should end the Gaza intervention.

Trump will never be against Netanyahu directly, but will try to teach him, lead him onto the path that could work.

Trump did kill general Qasem Soleimani, but he didn't start a war with Iran. He will not start a war with Iran.

Any politician in a big country can be called a cult of personality, now. What you seem to object is lack of positions. You are wrong. Trump has positions, you may not like them. The problem with Trump, is he is completely unintellectual, not ideological, he is not following a school of thought, he is a New Yorker, businessman, in media business, a media person,

Closest one comes to Trump is amateur naif actors in Pier Paolo Pasolini movies, who give an impression they fit perfectly into the role, like they were born for that role.

Trump recognized he was born to be US president. He did it, and now he learns on the job.

Trump is a successful politician who has found a winning formula for elections.

But his actual policies are a mixed bag. He trusts his instincts but he folds easily. He doesn't spend much time studying specifics.

From the American point of view Ukraine has become rather complicated. There is no easy solution. If you hear Trump he probably believes that he can badger the parties into some truce that freezes the situation. It is an open question what he will do if Putin says no.

For many years the artist Ai Weiwei kept a studio in Berlin, so it was shocking & sad for him to learn in January 2024 that the Berlin state government proposed a new funding clause for its artists' grants that would require applicants to sign a document opposing "any form of antisemitism." They used a definition that flagged criticism of Israeli policy, like the way Israel was prosecuting its war against Hamas, as antisemitic.

"Berlin is not a place where artists can create freely," Ai Weiwei said. "Whenever I hear about German government officials imposing restrictions on artists' speech or expression, I despair." He moved his studio to Barcelona.

Directing culture & creative activities toward political aims rarely ends well: that's where the West is now.

Political oppression has clamped down on normal human curiosity. We are ruled by weird phony freaks in the Beltway or Brussels who collaborate w/ weird phony freaks in the corporate world--and their rule is enforced by weird phony freaks in the legacy media & weird phony freaks in art/culture who use their status & influence to create an artificial mainstream society that is mindless, heartless, soulless & uninterested in nurturing a healthy world.

Everything that draws people to art--sincerity, rebelliousness, inspiration, sensuality, aliveness, truthfulness--makes a wild connection via the art process itself w/ mystery & the strange vitality which crackles just beneath the surface of all life. Celebrity guardians of an info-suppressive hegemon-centralized empire can't participate even an iota in the spirit of artistic freedom.

Art & poetry defy pre-established restrictions of human existence, venturing into uncharted territories. They are, in essence, endeavors to construct a novel reality, which by its very existence constitutes an inherent & destructive challenge to authority.

It is as Dostoevsky said: "Beauty will save the world."

The loss of cultural/creative freedom is much more than losing a *scene*.

If you are duty-bound to preserve the status quo of a mind-controlled dystopia, where expression is fraudulent, hollow & meaningless, your art will lack authenticity, not to mention soul.

The restrictions a government places on artistic expression, in this case in Berlin, impinges on the ability to express ideas freely, naturally, but also serves as a dragging weight, a mojo/momentum killer for the aesthetic endeavor.

An analogy: regulations on businesses in the U.S. thwart or stall-out the *spark* behind the start-up. Making sure there is free daycare onsite for the employees' children, making sure the employee pool reflects the diversity of the community, making sure the climate/ESG sensitivities are baked into the system, etc.--hitting all these goals can sap the start-up *spark* of whatever energy it originally had.

Once the government has *it* in bridle, it can control it

Involving government in creative endeavors, be they business or aesthetic, is deadening. A willingness to accept govt funding indicates a willingness to slide upon a slippery slope.

The kind of curiosity which lies @ the heart of creativity is too dangerous right now, societally-speaking--so the cultural life will suffer a generational hit.

We need way, way too much truth to cleanse this danger--a Khrushchev Secret Speech-caliber truth--but we are not about to get it

About the EU, all countries have or zero growth, or are in recession and the EU will launch in oct. a multi hundreds billions austerity plan which will collapse even more the situation, they do that on ZIO US UK orders.

There are still naive people who don't get it with the real goal of the BREXIT (war) nothing to do with migrants(their masters love, cheap labor), even less with the economy which is anyway 'broke' as a UK minister said last friday.

About 15 years ago when smart phones started getting better I thought the world would be in for a huge change soon since kids would start making huge breakthroughs that would benefit the world because of their easy access to technology. Sadly it seems that the world has lost out again because most breakthroughs are going towards weapons of death and destruction. Ahh well I also once thought that if women ran the world it’d be more peaceful, but then Thatcher Albright, Hillary and Nuland woke me up. Now I can’t believe how naive I was.
