In the lead-in to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, all of the U.S. involvement in the country was operated by bureaucrats and politicians from the U.S. State Dept, CIA, Intelligence Community and Senate. The Pentagon played a far lesser supportive role.
As a consequence of that previous investment, the current U.S response to the Russian “special military operation” has been spearheaded by the same DoS officials, intelligence agencies and politicians. The Ukraine engagement is a political operation using NATO and western allies. As we saw in the Afghanistan withdrawal, the Pentagon is a tool for the politics.
The division between the two interests (Pentagon vs State Dept) surfaces most quickly and easily when things SNAFU, and the blame casting begins. That’s when the division becomes noticeable to the public. The important point to remember is this… despite the involvement of NATO in the current Ukraine response, it is not the Pentagon calling the shots, it’s the state dept.
Earlier today, Army Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told the House Armed Services Committee “[Ukraine] is a very protracted conflict.” Milley anticipates many months, if not years, of combat fighting inside Ukraine as Putin carves out the eastern side of the country permanently.
According to Milley, “I think it’s at least measured in years… this is a very extended conflict that Russia has initiated. I think NATO, the U.S., Ukraine and all of the allies and partners supporting Ukraine are going to be involved in this for quite some time,” he said. The nature of Milley’s remarks outlines what will likely become an insurgency/proxy war funded by the United States for years against Russia.
As much as JC Milley is a political figure, Milley is operating his role under the assumption and direction of what the State Dept is creating. As a consequence of that long-term conflict prediction, the Pentagon is recommending several new rotating military bases for U.S. troops in eastern Europe.
It is also critical to recognize what is not being said by those same DoS and U.S. intelligence officials. The absence is deafening. What is not being advanced is any discussion of a diplomatic resolution or negotiated settlement. Milley’s defense request is predicated on a position that no diplomatic solution will be advanced. This is a key part of both General Milley and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin’s testimony.
Ukraine cannot fight without the United States sending money and weapons. Combine that with Austin and Milley’s statements about Ukraine, and what you quickly see, albeit undiscussed in media, is that a long-term war is baked into this cake. The United States will not allow Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to enter negotiations with Vladimir Putin.
When we review western media statements about Putin not willing to enter “peace talks” with Zelenskyy, keep the testimony from Milley and Austin at the forefront of your mind.
Why would Putin enter any negotiations with Zelenskyy, knowing the U.S. position is to carry out a long-term insurgency war in Ukraine against Russian military forces? What would be the purpose of Putin talking with Zelenskyy when the U.S. is openly saying the Ukraine military will be used by the State Dept. to maintain a conflict against Russian forces?
Russian President Putin knows the only group he could negotiate with are in the United States. However, that truth would expose the puppet strings, so the United States government must play the pretend game.
The position of Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a puppet to the U.S. State Dept and Intelligence Community interests, is inherent in the Pentagon position. If Zelenskyy was free to make decisions, Austin and Milley could not be so assured as to put a timeline on the Ukraine conflict.
This context becomes increasingly important as we look at how the media are positioning all resources to support a protracted war. Anyone who is not 100% pro war in Ukraine, for whatever length of time the DoS/IC determine is needed, is immediately cast as a Putin apologist.
This war emanated from the bowels of politics via U.S. political influence in Ukraine to the extreme. This level of U.S. involvement in Ukraine ultimately triggered Putin to say enough, and he started the “special military operation.” In many ways the operation is not so much against Ukraine – but more against the U.S. involvement in supporting Ukraine against Russia.
Because it started from political origins, the Ukraine conflict will continue to be run from the nerve center of U.S. politics, the U.S. State Dept, the U.S. Senate, and CIA operations. The actual Pentagon involvement will be transport and logistics for State Dept military operations.
Do you remember when the DoS Benghazi mission was attacked, and the Pentagon had no idea there was even a U.S. operational mission taking place in eastern Libya? That same “Operation Zero Footprint” disconnect is what I am describing above. It’s likely the Pentagon has very little idea what the State Department and CIA are doing in Ukraine right now.
This context is also why the propaganda around Ukraine in the United States has been so critical and important. We will see this level of propaganda continue so long as it is the DoS/CIA running the western response to the war.
What makes this conflict a little more interesting, is the need for the U.S. to control the information. We have seen the initial first phases of their control with Big Tech saying they will not permit anything that does not follow the official U.S. government narrative on social media.
Additionally, the State Department launching their own cyber-control division is an extension of this same intent. They are planning for the long-term usefulness of Ukraine as a proxy battle against Russia.
.
Websites like CTH, who talk honestly about the background of what is happening in Ukraine, may eventually need to start using coded language in order to share information. There are trillions at stake, and the people who control the events are not going to permit too much exposure.
And Tony Stark, et al, are rubbing their hands together and smiling….
Lords of War
Exactly how will they have a protracted war? Biden already let it slip that Russia had until the 24th of April to wrap things up. Biden is the fall guy for the disaster which is Ukraine. They are after Biden now with the laptop story, so they are forcing him out.
I don’t see the possibility of a protracted war when they are likely to lose the port of Odessa, have no sea access and have to transport insurgency the equivalent of across the state of Texas.
More likely they will end Russia, force out Biden, and while the new administration is confused will be the excuse China needs to take Taiwan.
Just my view.
War in Ukraine open boards on the south , Where do we draw the line.
The protracted war is required to keep the foreign aid embezzlement funnel open. As always, follow the $$.
Isn’t this the same guy that predicted a Russian victory in less than a week?
He assumed that Ukraine would follow his inspirational, heroic lead in Afghanistan and immediately surrender, flee, & leave behind innocent civilians along with billions of dollars in equipment.
Militarily they did within a very short period of time.
Putin is accomplishing his goals very cannily.
Mariupol is the centre for the Azov Brigade, and the Russian head fake around Kiev was just that.
Mariupol is isolated.
A favourite pastime in Russia is Chess.
Cheers!
Come on man. My local conservative radio talk show host tells me every morning how badly Russia is being beaten.
😉
Cheers!
I have noticed that… erstwhile “conservative” sites taking the hook and sink from the DoS.
The masks are coming off clearly.
what you might have also not noticed is that russia has in fact accomplished every single element of a successful campaign that will enivatably lead to Ukraine negotiating terms of “surrender”.
I know it’s confusing. You have a toxic false misleading media operating 24/7 to deny what is actually happening in Ukraine. I get it.
But the reality is that in spite of relatively high costs of this war, Russia has about a 500:1 weapons and personnel advantage. That’s 1.
number 2 is that they have air superiority and have taken out all strategically important element of defense that Ukraine can present. With one exception: manpads and javelin type weapons. Speaking of which: I can assure you that while it might appear effective and it is to some extent, it will have zero impact on the long term march and finality of this campaign.
number 3 is that ukraine finds itself in an impossible situation, where more massive losses of life will eventually catch up in the minds of the troops, volunteers, mercenaries, and then to military leadership. This will happen quite soon. It will become apparent that they can no longer “lead” troops to defend against an overwhelming force.
number 4 – given nato is not interested in extending membership to ukraine nor getting directly involved, other than some symbolic gestures of weapons and intel, Ukraine is very isolated. They know it. We know it. Russia KNOWS IT. They don’t have options other than continue to fight with an outcome that is already cast, or negotiate terms of settlement.
number 5 – Poland cannot continue to support refugees of this magnitude. It’s only a matter of time when the money dries up and poland decided to get very vocal to the EU about introducting forcibly a negotiated settlements such that these refugees are returned back to their state origin.
number 6 – EU states and many global energy market buyers cannot tolerate the current energy scarcity and costs. It paralyses their economies. The answer of course is to negotiate settlement terms and get that russian oil back flowing again. Which they will do. There are no other options.
number 7 – the US foreign policy and militarism is viewed toxicly by all member states in the EU up to and including NATO. There will be no article 5 invoked. There is only the toxic memory of the USG attempting to manipulate poland and other states to get involved directly in an attempt to trigger article 5. That was a failure and EU states have noticed the corrupt underhanded way that the USG has behaved during this crisis.
number 8 – the USG energy policy under this administration could have provided a solution to the energy crisis …but refuses to even discuss it. EU states noticed. Now their back is against TWO walls. A scarcity of russia oil that delivers about 50 percent overall energy needs, and a USG that stands to provide the gap but refuses to do so.
number 9 – The USG is very worried (or should be) that during this crisis, do to inaction, CCP is definitely tempted to take taiwan. Thus brokering a negotiated settlement sooner than later has to be on the mind of every rational military and state department thinker. if there any left. sanctions have not worked, will not work, and it emboldens china to act with aggression now that a BRICS system and other methods of sanction avoidance are operating quite well.
number 10 – many states have aligned already with russia and are buying cheap oil and gas well below market prices. Trust me when I say this: this is having an enormous transfer of power and wealth effect in “the west”. Unless some terms of negotiated settlement happens soon, there may never be an opportunity for the west to recover economically from this massive shift in energy market making.
not everything on the ground, with arms, weapons, and casualties provide the reality of the outcome and state of this crisis. This one is quite complex and very far reaching.
My prediction is that Ukraine finds itself negotiating terms by mid June 2022 at the latest, with EU and the USG shepherding the details such that Russia not only gets the strategic energy infrastructure and corridors (sea, river and land) it means to capture, but will also introduce recovery aid that will accelerate the assembly of the very MEANS (pipelines, communications, personnel, tech, ships, trains, trucks, etc) to get that russian oil and gas flowing as quickly as possible.
Sound crazy…that the EU and the USG will back down away from the new green deal and embrace dinosaur fuel again!???
it’s not about energy….It’s about the loss of money, paralyzing economic effects, and of course a refusal to concede control over energy markets.
Russia in return will likely offer into this settlement guarantees that it will not dump cheap oil and gas. again. in the future
THAT will probably be the most difficult terms of negotiation to score for the west.
russia holds all the cards with it’s alliance and opec status.
Russia can tell the west to go pack sand and continue this war if they don’t get what they want.
not so much the other way around.
Ukraine liberated another pile of rubble today!
Ukrainian fighters have surrendered in Mariupol.
They still were there earlier today when a Indie reporter showed the Russian controlled area and a few hundred feet away the Ukraine controlled area. Lancaster is reporting from Mariupol. He pointed out a factory area where they are still fighting.

Samuel Finlay:
“The indisputable fact of their recent conversion to brute hawkishness reveals the truth of something David Reaboi noted, riffing on Lee Smith: “The Democratic Party doesn’t have foreign enemies. They have foreigners who remind them of domestic enemies.”
I’d say that’s about right. There’s a bloodlust running like a current through those identifying with the party that was clearly stoked in them by the Managerial Class. I swear, you can’t swing a dead cat without hitting three freshly activated Manchurian Candidates ready to put their war-boner on the world. I am convinced it is demonic. Yesterday at my Normie-Job I heard an 80-something year old woman read aloud an article about how a cruise line would no longer offer stops in St. Petersberg, and would cost the Russian people there millions of dollars in lost revenue. She was almost gloating about the prospect of the impoverishment of those affected. A week ago she was deathly afraid of Covid and lamenting a friend’s refusal to take the ‘vaccine’. From what I understand, she was a former school teacher.
As bad as that is, it troubles me even more to see it from officials ostensibly on our side of the aisle. A schizophrenic coalition representing the Grift-Industrial Complex with a crooked-ass elderly dementia patient for a spokesman has been rolling into a midterm election season with low approval ratings due to their sheer incompetence and corruption, and no sooner than they call for blood against foreigners, RINOs fall in line with them, ready to snatch a defeat from the jaws of victory like the Jobronis they are.
The fools can’t seem to grasp that the Globalist-Left is not only on the brink of starting a war in which Red State sons would disproportionately be paying America’s butcher’s bill, but the tools developed in GWOT and refined in the plot against President Trump, the Canadian Trucker Protest, and now Russia will be directed against people like us who object to living under the diktats of GloboHomo. They will run headlong to secure the borders of Ukraine or Taiwan (or rather, send others to do so), yet when it comes to doing something about those who have declared war on us here at home, suddenly their martial vigor fails them and they sit like good little school boys awaiting instruction from their teacher. They let their enemies tell them who they should fight, then wonder why they always seem to lose. Charlie Brown had more self-awareness. In a way, I suspect it must be a bit of a relief for some. Having a faraway spectacle elsewhere offers a distraction from just how corrupt the ruling class is here and dulls the messy responsibility of having to do something about it.”…….

I can’t help but think that the lives of all these victims have been stolen from them by their governments, ours, theirs, the Russians.
If it was always going to come down to nuclear posturing, why not start with that?
Instead Putin will be using a meat-grinder technique like he did in Grozny.
Why were we pushing Ukraine into NATO if it wasn’t for this exact scenario to play out just as it is now playing out.
Wake me when the war is over.

Those who have so far died as a result of this Russia/Ukraine (US) war would be alive today if Trump was in the Oval Office.
Russia’s UN rep today:
Not only is our Occupation Government now staging transparently #Fake War Crimes with Zelensky, but the dead were likely people deemed to be Russian collaborators and executed by the Ukrainian National Police.
The Biden/Zelensky Junta is therefore also protecting their real killers, like Stalin did at the Katyn Forest Massacre.
This Bucha Hoax is just another Democrat Fake Hate Crime, a Jussie Smollett-Fraud writ large for an international audience. And like Smollett hoped to incite hatred against Trump supporters, Zelensky and Biden are trying to incite hatred on a Global Scale. A faked Hate Crime is itself a Hate Crime, you see. And in this case, a War Crime as well.
Joe Biden and his owners are the real War Criminals.
👍👍
Excellent summary.
There is also video of the dead bodies in the rear view mirrors getting up as the cars go by plus arm movements caught on video of the fake Hollywood production.
The arm movement wasn’t. It was a raindrop on the windshield. Not sure about the mirror guy. Regardless, anyone dead in Bucha was killed four days after the Mayor happily announced that the Russians were gone, and curiously made zero mention of any killings. Any dead were either Pallywood extras, or noncombatant civilians killed by Ukraine. Still, the “arm movement” was definitely a raindrop.
Why has Sundance not covered this speech and press conference? I don’t get it. It’s pretty important when Russia’s UN delegate makes a speech. Decades ago during the Cold War it would have been live on every TV, complete with the shoe-banging on the podium.
I understand why none of our TV networks covered it — everything Russia says is a lie so we won’t cover it — but I really expected to see it here, with the full transcript. I mean no offense to SD or CTH, of course. Just curious.
Just like everyone else that they’re afraid of, if they can’t control the narrative then they suppress the information.
This is so sad. Bucha = January 6 = Rigged Election = Invasion of U.S./Mexico border = withdrawal from Afghanistan = Benghazi = Iraq War = Libya = Kosovo = so many damn crimes by our State Department, three-letter agencies, DoD and corrupt contractors/corporations in the past 30 years, the innocent cry out and our forefathers who gave their all know too well that only God can save our Republic from this Evil.
I am in no way a fan of the Iranian Mullahs, but maybe they saw something in our Gubmint long ago that We The People didn’t.
You are 100% just like this post https://515loupe.com/2022/04/06/515-loupe-4-5-2022/
Yes and they have Jussie grade operatives working on these hoaxs. Come on man! Up your game 😒
But did it work?
I was wondering about the timing. The dems accuse others of what they’ve already done. Do they have inside info indicating that Putin is going to release evidence of Ukraine / Biden war crimes against the Ukrainian people? Have the Ukranian nazi’s been at it again and this time it can’t be covered up?
Another alternative is that the domestic US audience of this shit show needs yet another emotional boost to keep them in line while they pay over $5 / gal of gas.
Putin’s response to all this will be something to behold.
I read a number of sites that are pro Russian. One calls the U.S. “ the empire of lies”
I think the description is accurate, and describes the antics of all the anti PDJT forces perfectly.
The U.S.A. as a result of its countless overseas blunders has numerous overseas adversaries.
Many will be watching this unfold, and eagerly anticipate the opportunity to stick one to “ Uncle Sam”
How quickly the politicians and MSM have forgotten the Afghanistan debacle.

“The United States will not allow Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to enter negotiations with Vladimir Putin.”
To what extent will the United States go to prevent that?
Interesting coming from a government that won’t protect its own borders, isn’t it?
$100k per month plus expenses, company car, medical, dental and a lifetime supply of olive-drab t-shirts.
The United States will cut off his paycheck!
Ukraine will be divided! Russia on one side Nato on the other, with border line battles, till a Berlin style border wall chain link barbwire dogs and so on, can be established!
All those wanting to live in Nato may leave. Its a cold war people remember. Russia is saying this is as far as you go!
Putin should build a wall!
And make Nato pay for it.
But…but…but…. Walls don’t work. Just ask the WEF Uniparty sellouts in the District of Corruption.
Looks like its going to be a cold war in Europe when people don’t get Russian gas, if Putin doesn’t get paid. No gas for free after the great forex reserves heist.
The Western Europeans can enjoy their “Glowbull Warming”. Remember when they laughed at President Trump when he warned them about their dependence on Russian gas and pipelines?
Just another proxy war in the spirit of Viet Nam … how many decades will this one play out before the whole thing collapses?
It will continue on until the money stops flowing. It’s all about the $$$$$
No decades at all.
The US debt is at 120 percent of GDP. Russian debt is below 30 percent of GDP. The US is deliberately choking its energy sector to death. Russia is making a fortune selling oil and gas at the elevated market prices. The US can’t get military recruits because no one wants to go die for oligarchs, especially not with vaccine mandates. Russia has held back its best equipped and most experienced troops in anticipation of the main event.
The US is facing stagflation. Add in a major death wave of working age adults due to the vaccines. Russia has stabilized its currency by tying it to gold and energy, making the ruble a better long term bet right now than a federal reserve note.
In short, the federal reserve system is hanging by a thread. The debt bomb could explode at any time into a full blown depression. We won’t have the labor or the capital to run a supply chain to Ukraine. Not while our civilian populace starves in bread lines.
The BRICS economic moves mean they already won, short of nuclear war.
Just look at the sustainability of inter-BRICS trade: India has a thriving pharmaceutical and information technology sector. China manufactures almost all cell phones and tech, Russia produces oil, gas, fertilizer, nickel, and other industrial metals. Brazil produces soybeans, etc. The BRICS don’t need the yellow map countries. The only thing really missing is computer chip production. And lo and behold, Taiwan Semiconductor produces 80 percent of the world’s computer chips . . . There it is, just sitting there like a duck . . . Right over the strait from China.
You know what comes next.
A visibly weak and demented commander in Chief who takes a knee and names naval vessels after pederasts is an open invitation.
Milley is engaging in a fantasy. That’s all.
Yep, and with sanctions on Brazil its a done deal.
America will now crumble into third world chaos, and will never return until it begins to produce/manufacture for itself.
What would happen if China decided it was no longer going to produce the goods it does for the west? Will the AH’s in power allow the level of pollution China puts up with? Clothing, shoes, medication, canned food etc etc
Great post!
Alex1689, I think you have summarized things perfectly. The west is in real trouble and will not be able to continue their support of the Ukrops for the time period Malley suggests. Far from it.
Top post, yes they’ve already won the economic war, Putin knew what was coming, after the first cold war the US pushed Russia and Chia together, Putin must have liberys full of ex KGB information on all Intel agency’s and their modus operandi .
The evil just won’t give in, no country can war for long without a strong economy.
Terrific point on the Tiawan chips too, their next !
Better get Trump back yesterday !
Trump does not want any Country economically broke. Trump wants “Fair Trade” with every Country. All this can be done without War. Trump proved it for four years.
Whether you personally like Trump or not has nothing to do with the commonsense of what is best for you. Libtards unable to grasp this basic are truly dumb and stupid as a pile of rocks. Libtards are dangerous people to normal people’s liberties.
I’m thinking you miss read my comment.
1- this shit was created before Trump.
2- regardless of what you or anybody else thinks all wars are bankers wars.
3- Trump knows how to fix your economy.
4 – off the scale corruption led to two enemies too unite.
5- better get Trump back yesterday ——– meaning —– who else can fix this shit !
Bravo Alexi !!……… You absolutely nailed it to the core. Well done.
Make me vomit
Milley wants to set the US Military’s new record for longest war that is currently held by the US Military’s Disaster in Afcraper. It will be called Pain in Ukraine.
It will be called Paid in Ukraine.
There…fixed it for you. Rule number one: Follow The Money!!!
I don’t think it’s going to take him 20 years to lose this time.

‘NATO’s Been Defeated’ By Russia in Ukraine, British Ex-General Says
“Slightly controversially I suppose, NATO’s been defeated, NATO’s bluff was called,” Parker said on Thursday morning.
“We were unable to stop the Russians trampling all over Ukraine and now NATO is holding the line of the 2004 expansion, along the line of the Baltic states and Poland and Hungary and Romania,” the retired general said.
“And what it has to do is to defend that line, it’s in what in military terms we would call a defensive position,” he went on.
“And I don’t think it has the capacity to move on to the offensive with its 30 nations all with slightly different views.”
https://www.newsweek.com/nato-defeated-russia-ukraine-british-ex-general-uk-1693693
Interesting this comes from a British ex-General when we consider that the UK, US, and Russia are all permanent members of the UN Security Counsel, along with France and China. If that counsel was worth anything this whole mess would never have started.
Of course these days the UN along with NATO are just the public storefront for money laundering operations.
Of course he does….want the war to be prolonged that is…NOT!
Of course he does.
Pray we get an intervention.
I’m beginning to think the State Dept is the root of all evil. Get ready for the fleecing of your tax dollars ,,,protracted-long term.
Uh, wasn’t this Milley guy an adviser on the Afghan withdrawal? So, why is he still advising?
Yeah, he and his other Dept of Defense counterparts knuckled under to Tony Blinken and let Dept of State run the show instead of evacuating from militarily defensible positions such as Bagram Air Base
We like lose!
I worked in that arena for years. It’s all about the primes getting contracts. Milley should be in jail instead of in uniform. At some point someone has to translate the data into action and do something ab0ut this betrayal of the American people.
We live in an evil empire.
Why would we want a protracted war with a million or so Ukrainians killed? I guess an answer out of the way back machine would be, why did we want a years long incredibly deadly war between Iraq and Iran over the Shat-al-abab waterway? Undoubtedly we could have influenced a quicker settlement and spared maybe a half million of the million dead by not keeping Saddam in weapons! But our military suppliers made out great! Why worry about casualties when there’s money to be made. Milley today is just maneuvering for a high paying job, or several slots on defense company boards. Why try to effect a quick peace or solution when so many dollars are sloshing around. For Milley and Austin it’s like “green” rage!
“Why would we want a protracted war with a million or so Ukrainians killed?”
Look! Squirrel!
Q. Why would they want a protracted war with a million killed?
A. …because Coronavirus didn’t kill everyone they wanted dead!
Websites like CTH who talk honestly about the background of what is happening in Ukraine, may eventually need to start using coded language in order to share information.

This disconnect, which feels intentional, is destined for backfiring, as long as Republicans get their heads on straight sooner than later.

Banks/Weapon manufacturers are at war…
Russia/China have already won.
Of course it will be protracted, the industrial military complex and the politicians demand it . . . The CIA has been a problem since their inception, remember Benghazi was buried a month before Barrack’s second term election. They repeated history with hunter’s laptop to get rid of Trump and the American people were to stupid to read the tea leaves. Sure do miss those mean tweets . . .
FJB and the communist democrats !!!
How has that man, Milley, not been fired? Sure it’s going to last years – he has to make sure his Chinese masters find out all they can about how the NATO nations ply their war craft so China can adjust their approaches.
Are these the same military people that advised FJB to pull all the troops out of Afghanistan deserting the US citizens and handing over new tools of war for the Taliban – and this Congress is taking this man’s word for how things are going to go?
We truly are in a world of hurt as long as anyone in our government listens to these people and heeds their words.
This suggests that the comments that Ret Gen Douglas Macgregor made, stating that his war is over and that Russia has won, is grossly incorrect. That Russia genuinely has its hands full and that this will be a 79-Afghanistan-89 redux where now the DoS supplies the Stingers and munitions instead of the CIA to keep the fight alive.
To what end?
This will not help Sloppy Joe in the upcoming election regardless. Whatever the motive; another Industrial Complex revenue stream, or, a strategic realignment of European influence via new military bases, all will be swept away with a new (R) President in 2024
Russia started this and could just as easily end it by just packing their bags and leave claiming victory even without Ukraine ceding territory.
There HAS to be a war! Dimocrats don’t feel right unless there’s a bunch of people dying somewhere in the world because of them. Babies, geezers, blacks, whites, kids; doesn’t much matter to them.
And not just the Democrats. There are a huge lot of Republicans supporting this war also. They’ve got their hand in the till as long as the war will last.
Trillions from the pockets of Americans or from printing money left and right. More inflation, more wasted money, no solutions to any of the problems facing Americans like millions of immigrants invading our country. And maybe it can help usher in the green new deal and digital money, the WEF take-over of the US, and destruction of the Constitution while our society becomes more woke and more broke.

As previously mentioned “It’s not a coincidence that the clinton foundation was restarted once the billions started flowing to Ukraine”

Wars last longer when you don’t want them to end.
The whole point of the Dark Net is to go back to the beginning of the Internet when a “guru” was someone who knew the IP addresses of at least 20 useful sites.
Trust me, you don’t need social media, html, not even DNS to communicate over the Internet, just a little bit of encryption and you are set.
The general is simply stating the US preference for – yet another never ending war!
Since NATO first got involved in the Korean War, it has been one disaster after another for the countries that NATO/USA had to “save”.
Russia will end the operation in Ukraine, because there will be no Ukrainian forces left.
Read this current update in The Saker: https://thesaker.is/sitrep-operation-z-5/
Video of mass Ukrainian Forces surrendering: https://www.bitchute.com/video/aEanhNSwYPoR/
(won’t see this in the MSM)
South Front is another good source for information: https://southfront.org/
Unless the US is going to put NATO/US troops in the Ukraine, it will eventually be a Russian mopping up operation once all the Ukrainian Forces are destroyed or surrender. War is logistics and Russia has/is destroying all the supply lines.
The Russians will just destroy new US arms shipments or commandeer them. Ca-ching for the arms industry!
In the long term how can the EU depend on the US, when the US cannot/won’t protect its’ own homeland from chaos??
When will the West say enough to the US instigation of “chaos everywhere”???

I would not trust anything that Miley is saying. He is a part of the corrupt swamp that was involved in the pay for play globalist schemes in Ukraine, the surrender of Afghanistan and the arming of the Taliban, Al Qaeda. While it is painful to watch a thug take parts of Ukraine and see so many innocents harmed and killed, the same thug has punched the immoral globalists right in the nose who are now fleecing America and seeking to take away our constitutional rights like freedom of speech, press, & religion.
Which one, or both? I say both.
Russia is saying they again shot down two Ukraine helicopters today trying to sneak into Mariupol to “rescue the leaders of Azov”. Rumors have it that some nato officers are trapped there, including some big shot American 2 star general.
Without Afghanistan, D.C. needs a new, long term war grift….stat!
Isn’t it what I said?
The Globalsts are crushing the USPetro-Dolllar.
We need to get rid of the FED and develop a Greeenback.
As he salivated at the thought
Why do we allow them to continue to do this to us? Fool me once, fool me twice, fool me a gazillion times.
