While using language meant to confirm audience bias that Russia provoked this war, still a strong case for West and Ukraine to end it.

Not addressed is that DNC is an Israel First supremacist fundraising organization who plays opposition party in US politics. Just because they take up secondary causes of helping more Americans, doesn't mean they will get in the way of the Israel first rule over the US.

DNC elections/reforms will happen next, and odds are more of the same, but they can't have volunteers, turnout, or out demonize republicans to get the sweet zionist funding, and media domination, without turning against Israel, and media supporting the genocidal maximalists.

Best retaliation would be to sink US aircarrier group protecting Israel. Nuclear strike. 50/50 Trump blames Biden instead of Russia for a nuclear strike.

Historian, fairly comprehensive review, despite western propaganda views on Russia's economy.

  1. Proves China credit worthiness as good as US.

  2. KSA is sending its excess US $ to China which can either buy oil from KSA (declining imports overall), or other resources from global south, which might buy KSA oil with $.

While the scheme permits more economic activity outside of US influence, all financial $ eventually are deposited to US financial system. The paper implies reduced debt/dependence by global south.

With this successful bond auction, bonds for China exports becomes easier and likely to much of the world.

Though, US authorization is limited to military personnel in Kursk region. European PR was more vague.

If there is any hope for less war, it is through meetings. Biden admin was objectively terrible at not talking with anyone, including using China trips to lecture China from there.

Trump may well destroy America, and launch more wars, but Musk is not that problem.

Netanyahu not only promised democracy would flourish everywhere with Saddam overthrow (Zionist supremacist neocon Ian Bremer then motivated creation of ISIS by divisively forbidding any government job to Sunnis)

Netanyahu also promised certainty that Iraq had WMDs.

America's tendency to call supremacist apartheid ethnostates democracies as a justification of taking on the enemies of evil as their own is the core corruption of America.

Leaks so far of a "peace plan" are total non starters. Most cabinet picks only smarts are how to be corrupt, and there is significant doubt about Trump's "Peace on first day of office".

China can play a direct role with Ukraine. Chinese/global south peace keepers on Ukrainian side would be acceptable to Russia. China can outbid Blackrock on reconstruction vs fire sale privatization of Ukrainian side. Can offer more neutral supervision of referendums to join Russia, and protection of non-nazi normalization Ukrainian national candidates.

From beginning of war, western propaganda has simultaneously told us that Ukraine is winning, and desperately needs more funding.

Weeks of continuous progress by Russia is not relenting based on Trump victory.

Bigger points mentioned is that ME rather than being US allies united against Iran is positioning to punish US by selling their massive treasury and other investments.

US media providing certainty that whole world will lick Diaper Don's diaper is sign of a top.

Major deep water shipping hub for most of South America.

Alfredo Thorne, a former finance minister who runs an economic consultancy, said while the Chinese investments benefit Peruvian exports, “they carry major political risks, including access to the US market”.

What total losers. Peru already has triple the trade with China than US. Likely to get BYD plant in the port city.

Maybe Israel/US can't beat Iran.

I disagree slightly with "Israel cannot possibly genocide every single last one of them" as their "peace plan", and world doesn't sit back if US bribes them to sit back.

There would be considerable US expense to it, and geopolitical scorn to it.

The election losing, from inflation consequences, dementia of instigating a war on Russia does create a warmongering opportunity to shift to a war on Iran where both sides can keep high weapon sales profits, and constrain Russia from directly nuking US aircraft battle groups or Israel. This requires a far better deal for Russia than the one Musk proposed last week, but that would have happened anyway on just the Ukraine basis. Sweeteners to allow Russia to tolerate a war on Iran, are likely above the non-starter provisions I highlighted in that thread.

US policy is always for endless war. Winning means ending war, and weapons sales, and oil price uncertainty premiums.

Not mentioned in Wolf's piece is the current high debt burden of US government. Projected tax cuts, with empire overextension, leaves little room for dealing with more climate disasters, terrorism, or outright nuclear strikes, or unlimited weapon donations.

Failing to show Russia the respect it deserves is a risk of the warmongering cabinet picks so far. Trying to catch up to Russia's military production value for Ukraine donation purposes is a risk to US solvency. Trump will also need to show respect for China to avoid nuclear strikes in Israel theater, IMO, though China's winning patience is equally probable.

The main reason empires crumble is the hubris that they are still doing awesome right before collapse. The elites are all thrilled with the most corrupt election in history. "Finally the rest of the world will respect our diaper Don" optimism.

KSA has been a long time ally for US, and its wars in the region. Biden promised them a nuclear weapons program, but that doesn't seem enough.

Biden's "we would need to invent an Israel if it did not exist" refers to destabilization of ME in order to control oil. KSA was the lynchpin for it.

Read through the cheap shots at Biden and Harris early in the piece.

The sanctions and tariffs aren't to keep the Chinese, Russians, et al out, they're to keep Americans in.

Musings on a few topics. Worrying that crackhead Mike Rogers is being considered for Defense. Needs Tulsi Gabbard.
