    “roughly 100 diplomats from countries around the globe walked out of a speech by Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov…The Ukrainian envoy said that this action “sends a very strong signal”

    Wow. Taking the strong action of “Not listening.” Good job. How many tanks has your signal disabled?

    “Western bullion bank dominated London Bullion Market Association (LBMA), has gone and dropped Russian banks from its currently membership list”

    However, they left the refiners outside of sanctions. The spice must flow. If gold or silver dislocate, which seems likely, the markets come unhinged.

    This from Orlov was very good: https://cluborlov.wordpress.com/2022/03/01/manifesto-on-the-formation-of-the-state-of-the-federal-republic-of-ukraine/ Worth the read to understand.

    Livin’ in the Free World: “Czechs Could Face 3 Years in Prison for Supporting Russia on Social Media”

    And Ottawa. Speaking of, let’s play “Spot the Liar” with this clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ciJuD88qg0 Traitor Condaleeza Rice on traitor Fox Network.

    Lie rating: every 60 seconds. Best was Condaleeza Rice’s firm declaration that “Invading a sovereign nation clearly a war crime.” Uh-huh. Well, report yourself, we’ll start the trial tomorrow. Playing “Russia Lie Bingo”: Sunflower seed lady: Lie. Putin expected an easy victory: lie. Georgia: lie. The U.S. always tells the truth in these wars: Lie. And the Incubator babies! Yes, they used the Kuwaiti incubator baby lie again! That’s a red-square center! That one itself was the Anglo recycling of the “Baby killing Hun” from Bernays. Ah, the classics.

    Actual use? She indicates the Baltic states as being vital. E.g., the Baltics can cut off and attack Kalinigrad. So they’re planning that if they have to. Although Russia may have run war games for 30 years and planned all this, I haven’t and need to catch up. My bet is after Putin takes his ground he’ll trade prisoners for Kaliningrad or a land bridge to it. Sorry Lithuania. NATO thinks you’re expendable.

    I’m 100% on yesterday’s “Russia will take the coasts and lock up 50% of Europe’s trade and oil” “Then as London drives the Ruble to zero and prices up, Russia can offset their costs by raising prices on Europe.” There was no other way to win this war – if “win” it can even be used here, this is merely Russia “not dying”. So if they didn’t think of this they should have. However London has been very clear that they intend to coup Putin, take over Russia, and destroy it forever, AND have been using an economic blockade for decades – which is an act of war. Nobody cares, ’cause, yay us, we’re awesome and cool, and as the good guys, everything we do or think is “good.” QED.

    Just ‘cause the war is slow doesn’t mean it’s not a war. That’s the new way that works because everyone is a goldfish. That’s the motto of the Fabian Socialists, and for some reason people can’t think longer than 60 seconds and thinks “history” is like “reruns”.

    So how do wars happen in Russia? From time to time Europe gets so full of their farts, and they’ve attacked and killed and extracted everyone next to them and all their own people and think “Hey, there’s this great soft land to the East; we should go kill them for a change!” Then they have to march through endless frozen swamps, from Bavaria to Poland, then Lithuania, across Czech and Slovakia, across Ukraine, across all of Belarus, +1,200 miles to Moscow. They see you coming.

    And what was the NATO map yesterday since 1990? NATO

    London has now crossed Bavaria, Poland, Lithuania, Ukraine, and are now 10 minutes from Moscow. While declaring for 30 years they would conquer Russia and make them English as a manifest destiny. This is Russia’s 1,000 year defense because of geography and because it works. What are they supposed to do? Hide across the Russian Channel or the Russian Alps? Sorry, we didn’t build those. Then if they take Moscow how do you resist? There’s nothing to hide behind. But just because the war, the attack, murder and extraction of Poland to the West to become the undermensch plumbers in Acton Park and the systematic sale of call girls in Kharkiv happened slowly doesn’t mean it’s not the same work camps and forced prostitutes as the Reich used. It’s slower so it’s normalized. The death is normalized, the dictatorship is normalized. But it’s the same as always.

    Can we understand the Russian position now? They have nowhere to retreat to, and London just told them having troops IN THEIR OWN COUNTRY was an act of war and aggression. They’re supposed to quietly retreat off the map and into oblivion, like Republicans.

    “Europe still is but a province of the US.”

    Yes, but the US is a province of London. As we saw with the Steele Dossier of rigging the election. Or rather, a province of the same nationless oligarchs and their weird death religion.

    “The longer the war drags on, due to the successful resistance of Ukrainian citizens and their army,”

    Yes, but successful resistance? I haven’t been shown that yet. They SAY it, but I haven’t seen it. And yes, the “Support” of the U.S. to die to the last Ukrainian hopefully sinks in with the leaders of Lithuania, – they have the same support from the Anglos as always: none – but I doubt they’re capable of seeing it despite the Anglos having double-crossed every ally for the last 1,000 years.

    “Russia to Be in Technical Default within Hours (ZH)”

    Yes, but won’t they just lie about it like all the other defaults? Greece, Cyprus, Evergrande…? Reality is whatever I say it is from minute to minute and everyone just plays along.

    “I think they underestimated how far sanctions will go … All Russian markets have fallen apart.”

    Sure pal, sure. Russia was about to cease to exist but they didn’t run any war games on this in the last 30 years, despite “markets” being the only response in London’s playbook.

    Wheat limit up. That WILL NOT stop, as Russia will clearly stop all fertilizer past the planting season. Other commodities follow. Oil $200? Markets now imply war is going beyond Ukraine, which would make sense if they’re taking the Black Sea coast. Rates moved from 2% to 1.68% in a few hours, but the other action is not enough to say they’re taking Poland or something. So inflation just…doubled? From the previous 15%?

    @Dr D,
    Appreciate your ability to cut through the BS and get to the reality of the situation, it certainly augments Raul’s choice of articles from around the world.

    I too use this map to try and explain “ the other side of the coin” to wide eyed, thoroughly propagandized friends and relatives. The other two pictorials used is the one showing the NATO/American bases surrounding Russia and China, and the one listing the various American interventions in other countries— be they coups, election meddling etc.

    With these 3 pictures, there is some chance of begrudging acknowledgment, and an opportunity for them to explore deeper into the rabbit hole via questions. At least that’s my experience so far.

    The mass formation spell remains intact. Now mediocre Western politicians want to push us to the brink of extinction. Nobody in authority is asking how to deescalate this. Nobody in authority is thinking about compromise. Nobody is discussing history. Of course there is no knowledge of history or sense of introspection in the USA. The country cares nothing for history (even its own) and is incapable of critical introspection. And even though the West utterly failed in Afghanistan, Iraq, and Libya — this was the result only after destroying everything. And destroying everything gave the USA enough satisfaction to never learn any lesson. So now as long as Putin lives, they will see it as “there’s still something left to destroy.”

    It makes so little logic sense, I wonder if it is demonic. And I deliberately choose that word, not in the metaphorical sense, but in the literal sense.

    Q: What do demons do?

    A: They demonize.

    Q: Who has been/is demonized?

    A: Putin

    It’s funny, having been an “informed consenter” (antivaxxer) for decades, that the anti Covid jabbers have the need qualify their position first by saying they are not anti vax.

    I wonder when we will start hearing, “I am not a Putin apologist but…”

    It is patently obvious that any “reset” is going to be the “reset” of a reeking heap of wreckage, regardless of which side may or may not have an advantage over the other side at that time.

    Wasn’t that more or less baked into the cake at the outset?

    Therefore, to me it seems just as patently obvious that the only way forward is to play it out and let God (the Universe, Reality, whatever) make the final determination of who won.

    chooch posting a vid w. Stephen Cohen (RIP) reminded me of:

    Sergei Glazniev (advisor to Putin at the time), June 2014, (post Maidan) lays out the political / military .. situation re. Russia – Ukraine – Donbass.

    He speaks of, first a civil war, then the danger of a more global conflict, that would drag in Europe and Eurasia.

    He outlines that the US promotes war in Europe, to increase US domination (paraphrase.) Plus, a ‘war’ against China, is a part of picture. Also, quote: “The key to resolving the catastrophe of Ukraine is in Washington.”

    Oroboros:

    Your cartoon of Biden with his “mother’s” hand stitched note on his back reminds me of a funny thing my Mother did for me when I was a wee lad! See I was allergic to chocolate and would break into a red rash if I ate chocolate.

    We lived in a small remote mining town in northern Quebec/Labrador and the only store in town was the Hudson Bay. There were a lot of men working in the mines who were staying in company bunk houses, away from their families for about 6 months, so they sorely missed their children.

    Naturally us kids quickly learned that if we hung out at the Bay, these men would buy us free sweets!

    So my Mother sowed a cloth note on the back of my winter jacket, saying “Billy is allergic to chocolate. Please only give him candy!”

    So now you know how deprived I was as a kid!

    Another funny thing about growing up in a small mining town, that we would never let our kids do today, was as soon as I could walk, I was free to roam wherever I wanted outside, weather permitting of course.

    Naturally this suited me just fine! I roamed around town pretty much where ever I wanted. If I ended up playing with some other kids in their home, or stayed for lunch, I was supposed to phone home to let Mom know. That was just about the only rule.

    Them was some glorious times for me! (Except for the chocolate!)

    Why are cannibalism and the sadistic murder of children such “things” with the globalist elites?

    Because those crimes both demonstrate and symbolize the finality of the dreadfully false belief that humans are nothing other than meat. The actions prove beyond doubt . . . by making them no-going-back-now reality . . . the total commitment of the killer to that world view. If the perpetrators did not unreservedly believe those beliefs then they simply would (COULD NOT) commit those heinous deeds.

    Because cannibalism and child murder are such ironclad and irrevocable proof , they are for that same reason also SYMBOLS of the commitment to that belief. Total, and utter materialism. Complete rejection and denial of spirit (soul, awareness, life-force, however the individual defines the concept of Creator of the Universe.)

    A non-empathetic psychopath who believes that life, consciousness itself, is just another material “thing” is thus capable (indeed likely) to commit any atrocity with aplomb.

    The governments, and institutions (pretty much ALL of them) of the world are now comprised of these psychopaths and their minions (minions who are in VARYING degrees and states of personal degradation). Their victims consist of all of the rest of humanity, who have virtually no governments or large institutions to turn to for trustworthy help. The profound depth of the absence of virtually all large institution is just now STARTING to be absorbed and understood more broadly.

    The inevitable conclusion is simply that we have only ourselves, each other, and God on our side.

    The two camps are fighting it out, and as the conflict deepens it consequently deepens itself even more, in a feedback loop.

    The is no valid question about which side wins. The only questions are 1) at what point does an individual start taking the situation genuinely seriously, and 2) Which side does the individual choose to be on.

    Biden is quoted as saying in effect – Ukraine was premeditated, unprovoked, and Putin refused diplomatic resolution. Sure 1 is true the others not so much.
    Putin’s proposals for arms restrictions seem worth considering, primarily limiting using other countries as bases for nuclear arms.
    It seems to me that having nuclear weapons within a short range, means that there is a limited time to assess any seeming attack and increases the chance of human error.
    It seems clear the USA wants to ring in Russia as policy and has no interest in peaceful solutions. Anything vaguely suggestive of being socialistic, eg medicine for all, causes a vapour fit presumably because it would mean less profit for some.
    Unfortunately many respond unquestioningly. Whatever happened to considering others’ points of view and moral leadership?

    @D.Benton Smith: Another aspect of the value of cannibalistic and pedophilic group acts to elite psychopaths is that, when performed together, these provide the shared need for group secrecy. How do psychopaths trust each other? They must form more than bonds. They must assure the deaths of traitors. If you have done these deeds, you cannot blow-the-whistle on the others.
    I have seen a particular tale of psychopathic group induction, which I cannot validate, where certain evidences of psychopathic traits are elicited involuntarily, and those not exhibiting ghem are suddenly killed.
    There must be mechanisms…. This is an effective working group, as we see.

    Skimming that article on VAIDS in NZ kinda scared the shit out of me so I had to read the entire thing at “The Expose”. It’s still scary shit but the article was unconvincing. Sloppy logic, confusing math and numbers that seemed to change by orders of magnitude left me bewildered and unimpressed but I’m no expert. Maybe someone else found it more enlightening.

    It’s just like any tribal culture, where only LOYAL brain-damaged fanatics are allowed into the death cult ~ All tribalism is willing to murder non-believers, in reality, at the core a death CULT…

    The Psycho-Tribe is no different, except that in 2022 they have risen to the top-of-the-food-chain (for decades now) as the cohesiveness of normal, healthy humanity is at an all time low.

    We the Sheeple have been dumbed-down-to-succumb in western civ through the barrage of deviant, brutal & reality twisting psyops being force fed 24/7 through the windows of the soul as NEWS, ENTERTAINMENT & POLITIK, resulting in NPD mass psychosis THAT either INCREASES the Psycho-Tribe’s membership or CRIPPLES non-believers into dysfunctional, namby pamby quivering fetal positions.

    The advent of nukes, chemical/bio weapons, hi-tech + 24/7 int’l. info was more than developing minds (child EGO) could bear when combined with TPTB/TBTF psyops…

    Moreover, the primitive, animalistic horrors of cannibalistic and pedophilic group acts are clearly the manifestation of tribal culture (CULT) that worships EVIL rather than the Loving, Healing, Creative Power of the Infinite.

    Becoming conscience of this hellish societal maelstrom since 1993, without becoming unbowed, unbent, unbroken, has placed me into a null state without a country or culture to support…
