NATO and increasingly desperate situation for Ukraine
Putin, Xi year end summit. China, Russia de facto alliance
In ‘our’ (neocon) attempts to subjugate Russia and China, ‘we’ have only driven them closer together just as most careful thinkers knew would be the result. This is what happens when your civilization has been taken over by an ancient culture that has no respect for it or love for it. ABN
Jordan Peterson — ‘I can’t do it’
What I see most of all in Ukraine is a bunch of non-Ukrainian American neocons and non-Ukrainian Ukrainian oligarchs overseeing a melee of Russian and Ukrainian Slavs killing each other for nothing with a good chance Polish and Belorussian Slavs will join the fray soon. The greatest foreign policy failure in world history is the failure of Europe to form a lasting alliance with Russia. And that failure is based on the failure of Europeans to stop fighting each other. Over 100 years ago Sun Yatsen pointed out that ‘white people’ were a very capable race but since they cannot stop fighting each other, they will eventually lose everything. When you inject Jewish power into this mix along with the vainglorious cowardice of Jordan Peterson who stands for millions of ‘white people’, you see the problem is deeper than even Sun imagined. And it’s gotten worse in the last four years. ABN
Will Ukraine ever have enough Fire Power? Col Doug Macgregor
Ukrainian war, politics, its future and what Poland might do
During this talk, Mercouris and Christoforou repeatedly say that Zelensky is pursuing strategies based on political considerations: 1) to bolster morale in Ukraine and 2) to show Western donor nations they are succeeding in the war and thus deserve to be given more money. The problem I have with this take on the situation, and there’s much to be said for it, is that Ukrainian politics for a long time has not been run by Ukrainians. It’s run by American neocons and non-Ukrainian oligarchs. Zelensky was selected and raised to the presidency by those people and is clearly one of them or one of their puppets. That group of people will have no problem watching Russian Slavs and Ukrainian Slavs kill each other. I imagine they have post-war plans for that region that are not in the best interests of Ukrainians or Russians. Zelensky does want the money but I do not believe he expects Ukraine to benefit from any of it. ABN

Putin explains Russian history from Russia’s POV
This short segment is correct. The failure of Western Europe to form good relations with Russia—better yet, an alliance—is the greatest foreign policy mistake in world history. Nothing the West/NATO has done in Ukraine has benefitted anyone save a handful of delusional maniacs whose parasitic tendrils are simultaneously destroying the West as well. ABN
What will the neocons do now that their reckless strategy to destroy Russia has failed? Russia prepares for war with NATO
Scott Ritter on the war in Ukraine
(1) The second half of the story behind Twitter File #8 curation is really easy to understand.

(2) In Part 1, we walked through President Obama’s use of social media during 2010/2011 ‘Arab Spring.’ This was the origination of the U.S. govt using Twitter, Facebook and other social media platforms as tools to accomplish their strategic objectives.

(3) The similarities are not coincidental, and we left off by saying 2011 was the BETA test for what we saw in 2020.
(4) However, the term “BETA test” implies a test run where lessons are learned and then later applied to the live version.
In this thread we are going to show exactly what the main lesson from the test was, and how that learning applied to the 2020 election.
(5) The U.S. govt use of social media to install Egyptian President Mohammed Morsi was successful.
However, the Obama administration ran into a problem in the aftermath.
I am highlighting segment 15 because it is important to understanding how the plot worked, how deep-seated the strategy is and also why our military was purged through forcing out those who did not submit to the mandatory vax: “(15) The lesson learned by the Obama administration in 2011/2012 was that military support could defeat their deployment of intelligence operations through social media, even if the installed political outcome of the IC operation was successful.” ABN

The Khazars[a] (/ˈxɑːzɑːrz/) were a semi-nomadic Turkic people that in the late 6th-century CE established a major commercial empire covering the southeastern section of modern European Russia, southern Ukraine, Crimea, and Kazakhstan.[10] They created what for its duration was the most powerful polity to emerge from the break-up of the Western Turkic Khaganate.[11] Astride a major artery of commerce between Eastern Europe and Southwestern Asia, Khazaria became one of the foremost trading empires of the early medieval world, commanding the western marches of the Silk Road and playing a key commercial role as a crossroad between China, the Middle East and Kievan Rus’.[12][13] For some three centuries (c. 650–965) the Khazars dominated the vast area extending from the Volga-Don steppes to the eastern Crimea and the northern Caucasus.[14]
