    Machiavelli’s Brutal Truth About Female Nature (Never Published)

    On an only partially other subject, let’s do a vivisection of what passes for NORMAL in the current Universe of State and Federal law enforcement. Remember, the man being interviewed is a duly elected Sheriff, and career Federal Law Enforcement Officer of high standing in the DEA. He calmly mentions premeditated cold blooded murder of a Federal Agent by a CIA Federal agent, for which there was no punishment and none intended for the future.

    He reveals that as a sworn officer of the law he is aware of how another Federal Officer (from CIA) committed premeditated torture/murder of one of the Sheriff’s own fellow DEA agents……. and expresses no intent to do fuck-all about it.

    Just makes you feel all safe and secure don’t it?

    When I see Sheriff Hathaway, and the good Judge Napolitano himself, I see them very clearly as exemplary, virtual icons of the most dangerously destructive group of people that the world has ever known.

    I call them destructive because the amount of evil destruction that has been carried out by the people who consider themselves to be law abiding and honest agents of the Government of the people is simply immeasurably enormous. They include BOTH sides of every war that was ever fought, so yes, the destruction has been immeasurably enormous.

    I call them dangerous because they are unaware that they THEMSELVES constitute 100% of every government everywhere. Many of them, probably most of them actually believe themselves to be paragons of virtue and goodness. As they nuke Hiroshima, napalm Vietnam, or shoot another Gazan child in the head. No one involuntarily tries to impose their own will over the will of another without permission. The concept doing so is absurd.

    The world is in awful condition, and the “public servants” who made and keep it that way are getting paid one Hell of a lot of money, obedience and respect for doing a piss poor job.

    If Sheriff Hathaway was worth the powder and ball it would cost to blow him up then those hundreds or perhaps thousands, of felonious crimes that he’s aware of would have been successfully prosecuted and justice done. And if not then why the Hell isn’t the good judge and Sheriff still working on it at risk to their personal fortune and safety? That’s what they swore they were signing on for, so why didn’t they DO it?

    I compare them to a guy telling his step-son, that he helped murder the kids father and took his place because the salary and perks were better in the new high-pay high prestige job.

    Please understand that I do know that I’m being harshly judgmental in this call. But sometimes the stakes are so high that you just have to state the plain truth even if it hurts people’s feelings. If the simple truth is too “harsh” then I don’t really know what else to say about that except that: It is what it is.

    28 Point Peace Plan https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/28-point-peace-plan

    Trump, Kiril Dmitriev and Steve Witkoff met in October in Miami to secretly work out a 28 point peace plan, which respects longstanding russian demands, including that the US recognize Donbass and Crimea as parts of Russia, and that Ukrainian military move out of those territoties entirely. The Ukrainian military would shrink to 400,000 soldiers and give up all weapons that could reach Moscow and St Petersburg. Russian would ba recognized as one of the official languages of Ukraine.
    Not overtly leaked so far are the details of de-nazification, regime-change. The Ukrainian Rada has suspended its session for the moment for the corruption scandal of Zelensky’s government. There are reports that there will soon be an interim-government and elections announced.
    American Generals arrived yesterday in Ukraine to consult with and brief their Ukrainian counterparts. Today they and Steve Witkoff will supposedly present the 28 point plan to Zelensky and the Ukrainian military/security hierarchy.
    Europe is completely excluded from this process.

    This is most succinctly covered in the first 7 minutes of this morning’s Military Summary: Trapped in a Corner​ – Minor Capitulation ​- Fighting Erupts in Lyman​, Military Summary For 2025.11.20 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2SMaddHNWBw

    ​ Trump’s new 28-point plan: What does it want Ukraine to concede to Putin?
    Reports of a US and Russian-brokered peace plan for Ukraine suggest huge disadvantage for Kyiv, experts say. ​
    ​ Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is due to meet US army officials in Kyiv on Thursday.​..
    ​..Reuters later quoted two unnamed sources familiar with the matter, reporting that the US has “signalled” to Zelenskyy that Ukraine must accept the US plan, which involves Ukraine ceding territory and weapons. Other reports have suggested that this would be in exchange for US security guarantees.
    ​ The Financial Times quoted an unnamed official saying the proposal is “heavily tilted towards Russia” and “very comfortable for [Russian President Vladimir] Putin”. It does not say where the official is from. The Financial Times also reported claims that only US and Russian officials had participated in drafting the plan.
    ​ The newspaper added that the US had informed Ukraine of the plan via Trump’s special envoy to the Middle East, Steve Witkoff, this week.
    ​ Citing an unnamed US official with “direct knowledge”, Axios reported that the plan would give Russia parts of eastern Ukraine that Moscow does not currently control, in exchange for a US security guarantee for Ukraine and Europe against future Russian aggression.​..
    ​..According to Axios, the plan spans 28 specific but unknown points. Overall, it would give Russia full control over both Crimea in the south – which Russia seized from Ukraine in 2014 but which remains in dispute – and the Donbas region, which is made up of Donetsk and Luhansk in eastern Ukraine…
    ​ Ukraine would be required to withdraw its troops from the Donbas altogether, and it would become a demilitarised zone, with Russia also unable to place its troops there.
    ​ Axios quoted an unnamed Ukrainian official saying the plan also imposes longer-term limits on the size of Ukraine’s military and its possession of long‑range missiles.
    ​ In addition to Crimea and the majority of the Donbas region, Russia also now controls 75 percent of Zaporizhia and Kherson in southern Ukraine, bordering the Black Sea. According to the plan, the existing battle lines in these two areas would be frozen in place. The return of any of this territory to Ukraine would be subject to later negotiations.​..
    ​..“It seems that Ukrainian armed forces will have to be reduced by 2.5 times [reduced by 60 percent] of its size – that means Ukraine cannot have more than 400,000 personnel,” Marina Miron, a postdoctoral researcher at the defence studies department at King’s College London, told Al Jazeera, based on what she has read about the plan. “It also says Ukraine shouldn’t have any long-range capabilities that would be able to strike Russia. Then the territories under Russian control would be officially recognised as well as Crimea.”
    ​ “This plan seems to obviously favour Russia, and it is interesting to see whether the United States can exert enough leverage on Ukraine and on Zelenskyy to accept this plan,” Miron said.​..
    ..Trump has flip-flopped on the issue of Ukraine ceding land to Russia several times this year.​ Late last month, Trump suggested freezing the war in Ukraine at its current battle lines.​.. Ukraine and its European allies supported this plan at the time. “The current line of contact should be the starting point of negotiations,” they said in a joint statement.​..
    ​..Miron said she believes that if this plan is presented, Ukraine and Europe will reject it due to its heavy favouring of Russia.
    ​ “We will get into another cycle of rewriting the plan, and Ukraine and Europe will have their own demands. Allegedly, Zelenskyy had a plan of his own in Turkiye which was put together with his European allies,” Miron said.​ https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11/20/trumps-new-28-point-plan-what-does-it-want-ukraine-to-concede-to-putin

    ​ Trump approves 28-point Ukraine-Russia peace plan, but no indication Ukraine is on board yet
    In an interview with Axios on Monday, Kirill Dmitriev, an adviser to Russian President Vladimir Putin, said he and Trump envoy Steve Witkoff had written a 28-point peace plan during a face-to-face visit last month in Miami.
    ​ Just days after the Trump administration imposed sanctions on Russian oil and gas in October, Dmitriev traveled to the U.S. to hold previously scheduled talks with Witkoff in an effort to continue to make progress on a proposal to end the war, as a senior U.S. official described it at the time.
    ​ The White House official who spoke with CBS News’ Nancy Cordes on Thursday said Witkoff had been working on the proposal quietly for about a month, consulting with both the Russians and Ukrainians to take their feedback into account.​..
    ..Amid the U.S. diplomatic efforts — which include a visit to Kyiv this week by a delegation led by the U.S. Army secretary — Russian missiles have continued to pummel Ukraine.​ https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ukraine-russia-war-trump-approves-peace-plan-zelenskyy-not-on-board/

    ​ Kellog strung-along Ukraine and the EU: US military officials in Kyiv as Europe warns against reported Russia peace plan
    Senior Pentagon officials have arrived in Ukraine to “discuss efforts to end the war” with Russia, the US military has said.
    ​ The team, led by US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll, held talks with Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko on Thursday morning. They are expected to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky later in the day…
    ..Driscoll’s team is the most senior military group to travel to Kyiv since Trump took office in January. He is joined by Army chief of staff Gen Randy George, top US army commander in Europe Gen Chris Donahue, and sergeant major of the army Michael Weimer.
    ​ Details of the draft Witkoff-Dmitriev 28-point plan emerged more than three weeks after the two men are said to have spent three days in meetings in Miami, Florida…
    ..Meanwhile, a White House official confirmed to the BBC that special envoy to Ukraine Keith Kellogg would leave his post in January.
    He reportedly decided that this would be a natural end to his time in the post, which requires Senate approval beyond 360 days.
    ​ Kellogg has been seen as an important advocate for Ukraine in the White House during a time when Trump has often appeared to side with Russia in the conflict.​ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cvgdgrqwnq9o

    ​ Andrew Korybko, Ukraine’s Corruption Scandal Might Pave The Way For Peace If It Takes Yermak Down
    He’s Zelensky’s powerbroker so his downfall could undo the already shaky alliance between the armed forces, the oligarchs, the secret police, and parliament that keeps Zelensky in power, thus pressuring him into peace, especially if his warmongering grey cardinal is no longer pushing him to keep fighting.​..
    ​..US and Russia have been secretly working on a framework agreement for ending the Ukrainian Conflict, which Politico then reported could be agreed to “by the end of this month — and possibly ‘as soon as this week.’” The latter’s source also allegedly told them that “We don’t really care about the Europeans. It’s about Ukraine accepting”, which they said it might very well do since the plan will essentially “be presented to Zelensky as a fait accompli.”
    ​ Politico’s reporter elaborated that “They feel that Ukraine is in the position right now, given the corruption scandals that have been plaguing Zelenskyy, given where the battle lines are at this moment, that Ukraine is in a position where … they feel they can get them to accept this deal.” Accordingly, it can be reassessed that this corruption scandal championed by the US-backed “National Anti-Corruption Bureau” might facilitate an end an end to the conflict, especially if Yermak goes down as a result.

    ​ Gilbert Doctorow, A homecoming: ‘The Gaggle’ with George Szamuely and Peter Lavelle
    This nearly hour-long interview covers the waterfront of issues surrounding the 28-point peace plan that was jointly elaborated by Team Trump and Team Putin in a secret backchannel that eluded the attention not only of Congress but of the recalcitrant Secretary of State and others in the Administration who have been working against Trump on resolving the Ukraine war. This was the plan that Steve Witkoff was planning to hand deliver to Zelensky in Istanbul yesterday, but which the Ukrainian leader hoped to dodge by cancelling the meeting.
    ​ On the American side it evidently was developed by Witkoff and his junior aides. On the Russian side, it appears that Kirill Dmitriev carried the ball during his visit to the United States following the break-off of plans for a summit of the two presidents in Budapest. What then looked like an irrelevant trip to promote US-Russian big business projects when relations were at a nadir turns out to have been a cleverly disguised step forward in coordinating plans for peace.​ https://gilbertdoctorow.substack.com/p/a-homecoming-the-gaggle-with-george

    ​ NBC breaking Pearl-Clutching: Trump’s new peace plan unsettles Ukraine at a moment of maximum weakness

    Here’s how actually Christian preachers view the use of the word Christian in describing the-called “Christian” Evangelical Zionists. They’re fairly blunt and direct in their description, too, I might add.

The false prophet is the American evangelical Protestantism ecumenical movement seeking to gain control of the government.

I mean, this is fun and necessary and all, but we need to fix TODAY, not 1994. We jail people because that scares the h—l out of criminals TODAY. Biden lost 250,000 kids and no one cares about that TODAY, because Flight list 25 years ago. Don’t care. Why have we only found 30k of those kids? Are 210,000 of them dead? They’re hiving a bad day somewhere. Guiffres isn’t.

    Looked at another way US$ is straight up as BTC, Gold, Silver, all down hard. Is that a run for cash, liquidity, debt crunch? If only we had free markets and price discovery maybe we could tell.

    Alex with Russia + US. DBS, we’ve all said at length why this unusual and hidden conclusion is the only one that makes enough sense. Let’s look at two headlines today: “Putin Gives Trump His War” – Ritter, and “28 Point Peace Plan”. So Trump creates a Peace Plan because he’s going to war. C’mon. Wtf sense does THAT make? Yet they say it every day bc they start from the Conclusion, TDS. If he eats corn flakes they immediately become EVIL corn flakes. Stop.

    Details of this case, Speaking of Corny, and Flakes, Kellogg appears to have LEAKED this to everyone, in YET ANOTHER attempt to sabotage peace, which is why he was chosen and forced there to begin with. And why Trump said “Sure, whatever” and parked him with the other genocidal Euro-maniacs and used Witkoff instead. Idiots. Who the press immediately hated Witkoff and love Kellogg, so that should mean something to you. The BBC does this, because we know they make stuff up to kill people about once a minute for 90 years. So if they like Kellogg, — and they do — that’s all you need to know.

    Now THIS time, Kellogg leaks AGAIN, but the deal is already in pencil and just needs confirm, and Trump now just says “Oh, Special “K” was the traitorous, evil, lying, cheating, war-mongering mass-murdering bastard on this one.” Then a minute later, “Kellogg” is not looking to re-up his position, and is leaving perhaps Jan 1, because he’s been totally unable to derail peace as planned, arranged, and what he was paid by the club to do. Got it? He. Was. Fired. Finally, no longer being the useful distraction-idiot they needed to keep Europe on the hook.

    Now all along, while Ritter was falsely and failing utterly to accurately predict dick, and Krainer was totally right and prediction-accurate, they were saying “Oh Trump double-crossed, stabbed, killed, bombed, actually we invaded and nuked Moscow and we’re all dead now, haven’t you heard?” AS ALWAYS. Like NINE f’n years of this in a row now! This is NOT NEW. And yet, once again! Media SAID Trump is invading Syria with his “Beautiful Bombs” he’s finally President now that we ground-invaded Tehran with 1.5 Million troops, haven’t you heard?

    No. They penciled in the lines in Alaska, threw up a bunch of media chaff and misdirection, AND WERE SECRETLY HAMMERING OUT ALL THE DETAILS THIS WHOLE TIME. (quote below from Day) And Ta-dah! Today, they released it’s a done deal.

    Why? Because He sent it to Europe, and as expected, Europe said no, they will burn the earth to a black cinder before they stop war, and Trump and Putin looked at each other and said “Yeah we know, but we had to try. Morally, we are required to make the step of offering surrender.” We are Western Christians. Even for Infidels, Saracens, we are required to express our charity and morality. So the peace plan can’t come out, has no chance of being signed or taken seriously, UNTIL RUSSIA IS AT THE Dnipr, at a minimum. And Kiev is bombed, the nation is dark, and all the ministers have fled. Which is happening right now. So now, exactly that day, the deal comes out. Ta-dah!

    But there is NO alternative EXCEPT that Putin-Witkoff have been in non-stop 28 point final negotiations this whole time. Even Duran admits this, although again, they have the same cognitive dissonance that Peace=Failing, ackshully. If Trump has peace, he’ll be a failed President, while if we have WWIII final nuclear exchange, everyone will love and remember him forever. I guess. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

    So what HAPPENED? There were no HIMARS, no Tomahawks, no jets, all the Patriot/Jets are from EUROPE, not us. No money went there, no addition was made. There was Biden-signed leftovers. There was TALK. And even the TALK was unconvincing, “We have options” blather. It’s the MEDIA that just Made S—t Up and said, “It already happened, we’re already in Vladivostok, we already sunk 100 ships.” Love of Christ, NO. Not a single thing happened. Not one. Ever.

    While back in the REAL world, Trump was keeping the NeoCons distracted as they finalized the 28 point joint peace plan…which is NOT OPTIONAL. They are DICTATING Europe’s surrender. …And they are soft-entering it right now, as they know it will take some digesting to bring Europe ‘round to how they catastrophically and unavoidably LOST. So we’re in the “Oh we’re just talking, we’re just freezing the lines” bulls—t now, which is categorically untrue, as Russia will tell you. But they need to sell it and get Europe to come ‘round to it while they’re floating in violent, psychotic delusions.

    That starts today, as not TRUMP, but the whole MEDIA flip-flops that there IS such a plan, and try desperately NEVER to repeat what the 28 points are in it. And why. I expect it will take 28 weeks to claw reality out of them, BBC, NYT, Die Welt. By then, the full Russian army will be massed on the East bank and the discussion will be far clearer.

    I can explain all this further, but I already have for two years. Let’s pretend Trump wasn’t running Biden, which I think he was. Take it face value: Trump armed Ukr to get other things done in 2018. They were harmless and never used. Next event, Trump takes power Jan 2025 and instantly shuts off all money and goods to Ukraine, starts diplomacy and peace with Putin.

    WHAT part of this is “US soldiers killing Russia in the muddy fields of Pokrovsk?” Yes, BIDEN and the NeoCons, the Democrats did that, the minute Trump was in power, he STOPPED it. Wtf do you want? He should go back in a time machine? Trump is now responsible for all previous Presidencies and actions when he is out of power. No. No one does that. And so also there is no “America did this”. No, THESE people and administration, Biden and WEF, NATO, London did this. America, American people, half of government, all said no, as a huge majority and voted that way. I ain’t responsible! I did my part in the process, everything short of shooting people in the face, and so did Cheeto.

    Your argument is, “Trump is responsible for every action in all 4 years he was out of office.” No, he is not. You can say he should have contested the election harder, but only if you want a shooting Civil War. I do not.

    Now What REALLY happened? The US Generals were trying to “America First” – BY THAT NAME – in the 1990s are were all murdered by Clinton as the Globalists did that, then Bush in 912, took over and puppeted our government, holding 60-90% of all positions in their Death Club. The few remaining men had to hide out like secret agents and take the long game, even as this was tried – and lost – several times since Nixon. So right from there, NONE of these people were American, representing the People’s will. They are traitors working for known foreign governments since 1963. Even to today, as Tulsi reveals and de-classes daily. They came up with “Yet Another Plan” but the Bad Guys were apex and over-stretched, lazy and arrogant. And a new generation was stupid – really, REALLY stupid – and entitled. Remember the Bush/Baker/Kissinger old man’s plan in like 2010, trying to get the kids back on track, and the kids all said FU? Yeah, if they’d followed HW, if we were fighting Kissinger, we’d have lost. We were so weak and scattered at that point, in 2000, it would take a miracle. “And then a miracle happened.”

    As they capture a few tiny crossroads it’s inevitable that it comes to the attention of the new FSB, as we have a common enemy: Europe, or rather “Globalists”. They are inevitably going to signal, eventually rub shoulders, pass hints. Over time they come to understand each other and align even more closely, even as they both consolidate power. Remember, Putin didn’t push on running Russia also until 2006 or something, and was still fighting hard in 2015.

    At that point both sides are like, WHO is really our enemy, WHAT is their real goal? How do we stop them for good instead of fight new arson fires every day? In Georgia (both of them) and Armenia, Kazahkstan, and Ukraine? You have to out them. You have to use up, blow up all their armies. You have to bankrupt them. You have to expose them. You have to rub them in the people’s faces so they’re finally see it and believe and stop the river of Denial. You have to get their men to pick sides and be shot or sign up.

    You can’t SOLVE the final problem WITHOUT a Ukraine, sir. Without a flash point, without SOMETHING happening, we can point to. Sorry, but you can’t. And it can’t really be in Mexico, on us. It has to be in Europe. So once you know, you set the trap, US tiny minority of Freedom First people, and Russia. We signal what’s going on and draw Europe into overcommitting, then doubling down on overcommit. Then claim, tell, pass Intel that Europe is fine, they’re winning! Then make them overcommit again, until they’re lost, broke, exposed as war-criminals, and even stopping the war, pausing, will collapse them. Nothing else will do, and solve the “Final problem.” And the only way to do that is to tell them the US is right behind them all the way…then Not be. Or Europe wouldn’t overcommit and you could never hurt them. So sadly, it HAS to happen this way. …Not that we’re not like pitching for Meloni and doing the normal thing as well. If Europe rose up and hung these leaders, we’d cheer. But they’re not. Hardly even now as native Euros are being hunted like rats, their women attacked daily. The EU still has the People in a spell, so this was the only way, and it’s worked.

    Now Russia and the U.S. can’t SAY they’re allies: That’s why Hillary made up RussiaGate to begin with! To stop EXACTLY THIS TRUTH. It’s working great. But EVERY act on our side SHOWS we are allies, even as we can say and in fact say the opposite. Putin only last month more or less said he’s not at war with the U.S. in the slightest. So he disagrees with you, sir. Does Putin not know who he’s fighting? I think he reads secret docs. You and I don’t. He SAYS the US is not fighting them and not a threat. You’re saying we are, while we send no men and no money, embarrass and slap Ze and the whole EU senseless, then shove surrender docs in Ze’s hands and tell him to sign them. Kick them all in the pants out of the Oval Office bc Vlad is on the phone, tell the Press to print that, and STILL no one gets it.

    Does that look like Russia is making US surrender? Because if we were surrendering to them under force, we’d act different. We’d punch back. Instead we’re helping Russia and punching Europe. All along, the whole time. Or did those 1,000 Abrams Tanks arrive and 1,000 jets? We turned ON the satellites instead of we just shut all Europe and the whole 5-Eyes OFF. We CAN make all the HIMARS we want. Just open the factory. We have the buildings, rail, power, men, mines, chemical explosives. We made NONE of NOTHING. Not once, not ever. Not a single extra Patriot as there are zero remaining on earth. Odd, wouldn’t you say? We don’t like money now, I guess. Yeah EUROPE was banking on that, that we would want to open factories, employ people, make money, fight wars. Step Three: Profit! We DIDN’T. We blew up a lot of useless, hazardous crap with no batteries we’d have to have dismantled and blown up anyway. Except we blew it up ON EUROPE instead of a toxic disposal factory for billions in Ohio.

    And made Europe stick their head in the noose and pull the lever themselves.

    This isn’t Trump. Trump doesn’t exist, he’s a nobody, a nothing, and all this work predates him by almost 40 years. Quit with “Shiny object” ; what HAPPENED? Down on the ground, away from all the words, what happened, with who.

    What then looked like an irrelevant trip to promote US-Russian big business projects when relations were at a nadir turns out to have been a cleverly disguised step forward in coordinating plans for peace.”

    Wow, another amazing coincidence. 10,001st accidental backflip in a row. Now they have to work Europe around to accepting it being shoved down their throats.

    ““Antisemitic” means what, now? JD Vance?” Well Jimmy Dore says “Antisemitic doesn’t mean you hate Jews anymore, it means the Jews hate you.” Much simpler.

    We were so weak and scattered at that point, in 2000, it would take a miracle. “And then a miracle happened.”

    Because we didn’t give up. We prayed to God and held our principles and got up to try another day. Like General Washington, we CAN’T win. It’s impossible. So the only way to win was Not Losing. And we did. And one tiny, insignificant battle at a time, we did. We got larger, they got smaller. Because we are aligned with “the Way” with Human Nature and “Natural Law” of the Enlightenment, while their side needs ever-increasing vertical power of censorship, payoffs, and death. They run out of infinity money and power, and the Tao rolls over them like the river.

    No genius of ours except we didn’t give up. Like other nations we had a “Who are you” test and we didn’t give up our principles, even as close as that was. Now we re-affirm, re-understand, re-commit to them out there daily. They are increasing, as is church attendance, not falling. We won by aligning with God and “Not Losing.”

    That’s it. Yay. Some humility there, I’ll say. We did nothing. No win was out of our genius and strength, only the alignment of God. And there remains a whole nation out there still opposed to him, to Logos, Truth, Reason, Goodness, Love, and …heck, they even hate Prosperity. But the tide is dropping.

    But also the old U.S. is now gone and we’re fighting an entirely different battle of anti-human AI surveillance. I do NOT appreciate it. I need to retire.

    I see and understand yours and numerous other theories of the so-called 3D, 4D, etc. “chess” of the past 20 or so years of worldly geopolitics.

    All were written and promulgated by persons who have never held the bloody corpse of a murdered child, had their loved ones sent home in body bags with a thankyou note and a tombstone meant to fill the space where a cherished loved one used to be.

    I have.

    Don’t tell me that wars of strategic aggression, no matter how strategically logical or sensible, are preferable to the peace which preceded the violence, no matter how imperfect.

    Those were UNITED STATES spooks, diplomats and oligarchs in Kiev in 2014, and United States built munitions and equipment used against unarmed civilians in the Donbas by Ukrainian puppets that the Zionist United States CIA and State Department had propped into place and gave orders to.

    You don’t mention in your arguments that the Western Empire is an EMPIRE, ostensibly (at least) led by the hegemonic Zionist USA military industrial intelligence & finance “complex” (mafia), but that is nevertheless who’s been running the planet (more or less… and MUCH less these days), so it just doesn’t wash that they got dragged into somebody else’s war and are just killing millions of people in an effort to finesse peace out of a war torn world.

    I think that what you are overlooking is that it is the SAME Satanic cabal running the United States that is running Europe, When the top Nazi claps his hands he is simply slapping the US and Europe together to make a loud noise and kill a few million people who were unfortunate enough to be caught in the impact zone.

    Same basic arrangement in Gaza. The United States and the State of Israel are not different things. They are appendages of the SAME thing. And Trump is just lead actor in the latest episode of “As The World Burns”.

    Here’s an excellent example, not only of how the game is played but why it is played the way it is. Basically it’s played the way it is because THAT’S the way homicidal psychopaths get rich and powerful killing people and staying out of prison for crimes against humanity.

    28 Peaceful Points By Thanksgiving https://drjohnsblog.substack.com/p/28-peaceful-points-by-thanksgiving

    Gilbert Doctorow has the story, but does not mention Thanksgiving deadline: Donald Trump’s 28-point peace plan for ending the Russia-Ukraine War
    Trump is being accused by mainstream commentators of selling out an ally, pandering to a tyrant (Putin) and doing a disservice to American interests worldwide…
    ..I say ‘bravo’ to the American President, whose team has cobbled together a road map to long-lasting peace not just between Russia and Ukraine, but between Russia, Europe and the United States…
    ..I take pleasure in noting that the concept of using the frozen Russian assets as a means of not merely ensuring quick reconstruction of both the Ukrainian held and the Russian held parts of what was pre-war Ukraine but also involving the United States in the process, to ensure the funds are not diverted into private pockets and really do some good. This is a variation on my long-held proposal for these funds. Moreover, the plan obliges Europe to contribute $100 billion to the very same cause…
    ..That the concept of denazification is also addressed in this plan is especially worthy of note… specific proposals for its being implemented – without purges, without recrimination and with a positive approach…
    ..I also note especially the requirement that elections be held in Ukraine within 100 days of concluding the agreement and start of its implementation, which includes, of course, a comprehensive cease-fire. This, not forced regime change…​ the best possible way to ensure the evolution of Ukraine towards democracy and peaceful coexistence with its neighbor.​
    ​ Among the 28 points are issues not directly related to the Ukraine-Russia conflict but having decisive importance for restoring calm in international relations and taking us all back from the risks of nuclear war. The outstanding point in this regard is the call for extension of the START treaty without any mention of bringing China to the table, which of course would at this point condemn the initiative to failure.​ [Open link for 28 points.] https://gilbertdoctorow.substack.com/p/donald-trumps-28-point-peace-plan

    ​ Dima at Military Summary channel points out that the allowed Ukrainian army of 600,000 is too large for Russian comfort, that individual countries (UK, France) are not forbidden to station troops in Ukraine, outside of NATO, and that this is probably not acceptable to Russia yet.

    ​ John Helmer casts this in a negative light. THE BULLIES ON THE BEACH ARE BEACHED — TRUMP COVERS RETREAT FROM UKRAINE FRONT
    War fighters like President Donald Trump can’t be seen to run away from losing their wars.
    ​ As Trump recently declared from the deck of the USS Harry Truman, celebrating the birthday of the US Navy: “We won World War I, we won World War II, we won everything in between. We won everything before… In Vietnam, the Navy unleashed Operation Rolling Thunder and deployed a brand new unit, the Navy Seals, to tear up Mekong River Delta. Problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would’ve won easy. We would’ve won Afghanistan easy, would’ve won every war easy. But we got politically correct, ‘Ah, let’s take it easy.’ It’s, we’re not politically correct anymore, just so you understand. We win — Now, we win. We don’t want to be politically correct anymore.”
    ​ In the latest blitz of Anglo-American press leaks, Trump has authorized his chief prompter Vice President JD Vance, his bagman Steven Witkoff, and Vance’s university chum Army Secretary Daniel Driscoll to concede 28 of the 31 points of Russia’s June 2 term-sheet for ending the Ukraine war; to tell the newspapers this is their “new peace plan for Ukraine”; and demand that the Zelensky regime and their European allies “under pressure both on the battlefield and on the home front (due to a burgeoning corruption scandal), will have to accept what’s on offer.”​ https://johnhelmer.net/the-bullies-on-the-beach-are-beached-trump-covers-retreat-from-ukraine-front/

    ​ [The signatures are to be between Ukraine & US.]​ Zelensky Says Ukraine Could ‘Lose Key Partner’ As He Balks At Trump’s Peace Deal
    This morning, Zelensky and Vice President JD Vance discussed the Trump administration’s new Ukraine peace plan, marking the highest-level talk on 28-point plan so far, and soon on the heels of this Zelensky issued the following video statement which states in part…
    ​ “This is one of the most difficult moments in our history […] Currently, the pressure on Ukraine is one of the hardest. Ukraine may now face a very difficult choice, either losing its dignity or the risk of losing a key partner.”
    ​ He also said: “I will present arguments, persuade, and propose alternatives, but we will not give the enemy grounds to say that it is Ukraine that does not want peace. That will not happen.” And: “We did not betray Ukraine then (on February 24), and we will not betray it now. I know that the people are with me.”
    ​ The statement is tinged with defiant rhetoric aimed at Washington, especially given he talks of the “risk” of losing a key partner – in reference to the US, which has already sunk tens of billions into the war effort. But the Ukrainian leader also seems somewhat defeated, admitting the “most difficult” moment in the history of the war.
    ​ President Trump has said that next Thursday, Thanksgiving Day in the US, is a suitable deadline for the sides to sign the peace agreement. As for the immense pressure from the US Zelensky is talking about, Reuters reports:
    ​ The United States has threatened to cut intelligence sharing and weapons supplies for Ukraine to press it into agreeing to the framework of a U.S.-brokered peace deal, two people familiar with the matter said.
    ​ “The sources, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that Kyiv was under greater pressure from Washington than during any previous peace discussions, and that the U.S. wanted Ukraine to sign a framework of the deal by next Thursday,” the report adds. Trump has also again admitted that Ukraine forces are fast losing ground on the battlefield.
    ​ In the meantime, Ukraine is reportedly in discussions with its more hawkish backers in Europe – France, Germany, and the UK – on a counter-proposal which would supplant the US peace plan.​ https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/regime-change-kyiv-us-peace-plan-demands-ukraine-hold-rapid-elections-after-signing
