The intellectually honest political watcher knows that overall Ukraine represents the largest international money laundering operation to shift wealth from taxpayers to the politically connected institutions, since COVID-19. The money is the motive to continue the conflict.
With President Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin scheduled to meet in Alaska for a summit to negotiate a ceasefire, German Chancellor Friedrich Merz quickly organizes a meeting between EU leaders and the U.K to figure out how the keep the war going.
As the industrial capital of the EU, Germany has a lot at stake given the nature of their contracting economy. The EU military industrial complex is centered around the nation Merz represents. There are trillions at stake.
BERLIN — U.S. President Donald Trump will join European leaders including Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy for an emergency virtual summit on Wednesday.
The call, organized by German Chancellor Friedrich Merz, comes ahead of Friday’s summit in Alaska between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin on the war in Ukraine.
The virtual summit will focus on pressure options against Russia, questions about Ukrainian territories seized by Russia, security guarantees for Kyiv and the sequencing of potential peace talks, a German government spokesperson told POLITICO.
Merz and other European leaders demand that Putin first agrees to a ceasefire before any peace talks or land swaps between Moscow and Kyiv can take place. They have also made clear that any potential territorial exchanges must be balanced and agreed with Kyiv, and that Ukraine should receive firm security guarantees to protect it against further aggression.
Three diplomats told POLITICO that Merz’s team had been in intensive discussions with other capitals in recent days to organize the virtual meeting. (read more)


It is simply so (awfully …) comical to hear these people talk about “protecting against further aggression by Russia,” when it was their proxy army which was amassed at Russia’s borders, obviously ready to invade. They were brashly circulating maps which showed Russia divided-up into forty-odd impotent little countries, each one given a name and a flag.
When Russia, very simply, read the tea-leaves correctly and decided to strike first. Thereby taking the military advantage which they have never lost. Mind you, they’re not going to give up that advantage at some table. They’re not going to fall for “Minsk 3.” They clearly remember what you finally admitted.
Russia stated its mission statement on day one, and has never deviated from it. But, they have the capacity to carry it out. (You don’t.)
Russia knows damned well what “War” is, and what it costs. They celebrate “Victory Day” every year so that their countrymen never forget. Europe seems to have utterly forgotten everything.
Russia is the one who is patiently inviting negotiations – as long as they are real ones. But, even now, Europe is once again acting in quite-visibly bad faith.
“Europe seems to have utterly forgotten everything.” True words. With the Marshall Plan, Europe started to go the same way as before, establishing and implementing the same socialist ideas that they fought WWII for. Today, they are not even owners of their own countries. The EU (Fourth Reich) is the one calling the shots. The EU will collapse by its own weight. The questions is what happens afterwards.
What was it that Charles Maurice de Talleyrand said about the Bourbons, “they have learned nothing and have forgotten nothing”?
Not to mention the “Ghost Battalions”.
Peace will come when Putin gets the land he wants but PT must figure out a way to show Ukraine has gained something from this war.
My guess is that Trump and Putin will agree not only to Russian’s sovereign acquisition of the four eastern Ukrainian Oblasts and Crimea, along with no future NATO membership and no foreign troops stationed in Ukraine going forward, but an ECONOMIC deal in the form of a partnership between the United States and Russia to rebuild [what’s left of] Ukraine in it entirety, and to provide further, ongoing economic assistance and LOAN guarantees (which they will describe as Economic SECURITY Guarantees), so that the whole of Ukraine and all of its people can prosper, advance, modernize, and get rid of the NAZI control of Ukraine’s historically, long=standing and deeply entrenched corrupt government.
What’re the stupid leaders of the world going to say to that proposal?
Getting rid of the NAZI’s is paramount!
Anyone ever notice that the “trillions at stake” for them are always tied to death and suffering for the rest of us?
🤬
It’s all about the Benjamins (sp?) and the other currencies these countries and individuals use.
Suspect you have no Clue who is running the EU . . .

Our Blood, Theie Profits. IF EU-NATO wants Moar War Let Them Have It. We/Me/You are “The People” of the American Government and no longer following Any More NWO Wars or USSA/Cia/Bankster’s Foreign”Nation Building.”
Same old shiat since the 1960’s Vietnam to Afghanistan/Iraq, …………… Have We Had Enough, Yet ??? Yes !!!
America has always been at our best when we pursue our national interests, home and abroad. Where we fall short is when we get conned into fighting wars instigated by corrupt forces in our own government (Gulf of Tonkin anyone?) or wars for others where we have no national interest (Korea). We also err when we take on nation-building where ‘nationhood’ has no meaning for the locals or us (staying way too long in Afghanistan and Iraq). When we fully commit and hit hard, destroy the enemy and then go home (Japan, Germany in WWII), everybody heals and moves on. This concept of proportional force and playing nice to not alienate enemies is stupid and gets our people killed to no end.
The war in Ukraine is everything that is wrong with US warfighting, strategically and tactically, in the present day. We have no quarrel with Russia, and the only way to bring them to heel is hitting hard, and that is a nuclear exchange. No one will move on and heal from that.
I wonder what would happen if all the infantry troops, in all armies, would unionize.
in case you have not seen this already
Why of course the people don’t want war. Why should some poor slob on a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people don’t want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country.

That would be the greatest gift to communism…it essentially happened in Russia circa 1917-18.
This is crazy from top to bottom. In addition to their (and our) role in starting this war, no European nation has a credible military force, thus they’re counting on dragging American blood into this. Germany, recognizing the parlous state of it’s ‘Army’, announced they’d buy a bunch of their own Leopard II tanks to bulk up, overlooking the fact that that tank got clowned in Ukraine. England’s Challenger did so poorly they withdrew it from combat to end the embarrassment it brought. NEITHER country has a new tank on the horizon, while Russia is modifying it’s tanks with lessons learned on the battlefield.
In short, Europe is trying to continue a war for which it is not at ALL prepared.
Europe is Welcome to Continue Their War, as long as It’s not Our war in Any Form of support, especially Cia or Space Force satellites for targeting.
Russia just yesterday punched a 5 mile hole through the decimated Ukrainian army lines, about to surround a large Ukrainian force.
This War is factually coming to an End, regardless of the EU and also the USA capacity for Convential Warfare against Russia. The “Alternative” to convential should Grab the Attention of Everyone with Any Sanity.
President Trump & Putin have All the Cards for Peace. imo, the Agreement is already done, just needing signatures and a handshake, all bluster aside.
The Russians used the computer chips salvaged from destroyed Challenger and Leopard tanks to build refrigerators and washing machines. That was a great troll by Putin’s defense minister used against Ilse Koch Fond Of Lying. 🤣
Well, as Sundance always says, “There are TRILLIONS” at stake, and since we are technically INSOLVENT it requires the “The FED” and its underlings to launch WWIII in order to continue the PONZI, let’s see if the folks will go along AGAIN for another BANKERS WAR!
Amen to that.
It’s all about the Benjamins (or whatever currency these people use).
Why have a meeting in Alaska?
https://smoothiex12.blogspot.com/2025/08/i-guess-they-get-message.html
The photo accompanying this article: Was this meeting held around Zelenskyy’s toybox? I mean, all those cute little decals of unicorns and rainbows certainly make a statement, don’t they.
By some accounts the Russians have broken thru and have deployed their Diversionary Troops into the Breach.

For students of Soviet Military Doctorine this means that the Tank armies have been committed.
Maybe the krauts can stop them with Diversity?
General Grant just broke thru General Lee’s lines at Petersburg, VA. April 1865
FUBAR for the Southern War for Independence. Which is another story for an old Confederate like me, but the Situation is the same, imo.
Ukraine will surrender Land gladly to remain a country or face total defeat. The prudence and restraint of the Russians & Putin is something the idiots in the EU-NATO should learn.
You need to come to grips and get over it, Jubal.
You’re late, Early!
No one from the South ever “gets over it.” 😎
Like Hitler, Zalenski will flee his bunker while his people are consumed by the Russian Steamroller and live out his years in comfort in a foreign land as a piano player at some seedy strip club.
perhaps … but then again accidents happen … or food poisoning …

Not one of those men will die on the battlefield.
A VERY GOOD RECAP OF THE BACKGROUND OF THE UPCOMING ALASKA SUMMIT:
Alaska summit, final off-ramp for Trump w/ Robert Barnes (Live)
Robert Barnes ties a lot of things together that don’t seem connected to bring this Alaska meeting off.
Through Tariffs PT is moving the 37 trillion off our balance sheet and redistributing it o where it belongs…..back to the thieves of the US piggy bank. Get rid of the FED.
Who supplied the blow?
These EU people are sick. Trying to generate economic prosperity via war with the true cost being human life.
They will be judged!
All should be hanging from light posts! Criminals, all.
Not all.
If the EU summiteers want to keep the war going even if Putin and Trump reach a peace agreement, it seems to me the simplest way would be for the Europeans to attack Ukraine themselves. </sarcasm>
Ukraine is ’Money Laundering’ on a vast scale.
