Yes, all of that crap about Russian troops on the border, ready to invade, is all FAKE NEWS. It's denied by the Ukrainians, French, Germans, and pretty much everyone in the area. The only ones pushing that narrative are Biden* and BoJo.

Everyone else knows it's bullshit. Just like everything else you post.

And BTW you're crazy and a sociopathic liar.

Current Russian president Vladimir Putin seems to be taking a page from his historical mentor Stalin as he is using Victory Day to whip up nationalist fervor as he attempts to rewrite history and paint a false picture that Russia is still fighting fascism, but this time it’s Europe and the U.S. who are out to subjugate Mother Russia.

So here we are. I told you so. Again and again I told you so. With what’s going on now I have been proven right. And not just about Putin, but about how the Russian army would get their asses kicked if they fucked with NATO or continued acting out in Europe. Again, I was dead on.

Putin got himself into a legal tangle. Because Putin won't declare war on Ukraine, Putin's soldiers can refuse to fight in Ukraine:

Dmitri told his commanders that he refused to rejoin the invasion. “They were furious. But they eventually calmed down because there wasn’t much they could do,” he said.

He was soon transferred to Belgorod, a Russian city close to the border with Ukraine, where he has been stationed since. “I have served for five years in the army. My contract ends in June. I will serve my remaining time and then I am out of here,” he said. “I have nothing to be ashamed of. We aren’t officially in a state of war, so they could not force me to go.”

Dmitri’s refusal to fight highlights some of the military difficulties the Russian army has faced as a result of the Kremlin’s political decision not to formally declare war on Ukraine – preferring instead to describe the invasion, which will soon reach its fourth month, as a “special military operation”.

Under Russian military rules, troops who refuse to fight in Ukraine can face dismissal but cannot be prosecuted, said Mikhail Benyash, a lawyer who has been advising soldiers who choose that option.

Benyash said “hundreds and hundreds” of soldiers had been in touch with his team for advice on how they could avoid being sent to fight. Among them were 12 national guardsmen from Russia’s southern city of Krasnodar who were fired after refusing to go to Ukraine.

“Commanders try to threaten their soldiers with prison time if they dissent, but we tell the soldiers that they can simply say no,” Benyash said, adding that he was not aware of any criminal cases against soldiers who refused to fight. “There are no legal grounds to start a criminal case if a soldier refuses to fight while on Russian territory.”

Many soldiers, therefore, have chosen to be fired or transferred rather than going into “the meat grinder”, he said.

A similar account to Dmitri’s was given to the BBC’s Russian service by Sergey Bokov, a 23-year-old soldier who at the end of April decided to leave the army after fighting in Ukraine. “Our commanders didn’t even argue with us because we were not the first ones to leave,” Bokov said.

Pointing to Russia’s military laws, Benyash said it would be more difficult for soldiers to refuse to fight if Russia were to declare a full-scale war. “During wartime, rules are totally different. Refusal then would mean much harsher penalties. They would be looking at time in prison.”

The EU is spending €195 billion because it is feeling magnanimous toward America. The EU is cutting down on CO2 emissions to save America from droughts, floods, hurricanes and climate change, since America can't/won't decrease its burning of fossil fuels and forests, and the EU is punching Putin directly in the face (by not purchasing Russian fuel) because of his invasion of Ukraine, since America can't/won't punch Putin, either.

Russia holds all the cards. It has a strong military advantage. And unlike the west, it has hardened its economy to be food and energy-secure, hardened its financial system to be independent from the west, does not depend on western loans, is running a budget surplus, and has a robust and equitable trade relationship with China.

The USA depends on continuous loans from The Fed and continuous emissions of printed money to pay for imports, and continuous demand for USA bonds in order to prop up its ever-expanding debt. But the region that will really suffer is Europe. If the EU thinks it will be standing upright after a serious tiff with Russia, they're fantasists.

Belarus ... Poland ... wherever ... to gin up an excuse to take action NOW. Because Russia's advantages are only going to grow over time compared to the US and Europe.

There is an interview about all the things that the USA should be doing, but isn't. Instead, the EU is doing it for the USA. A few words from the interview:

Deploying more clean energy technology in Europe makes clean energy cheaper in the US, in China, in India, in Africa, and everywhere. I’ve written about this extensively in the past. In How to Decarbonize America, and the World, I argued that the most effective climate policy of all time was Germany’s early subsidies of solar power, when that was a tiny, ludicrously expensive industry, because that scaling of industry made solar cheaper for everyone on the planet. In Solar’s Future is Insanely Cheap I documented how every major data set of solar cost shows that increased scaling leads to exponential price decline, in a way that can be measured and forecasted using Wright’s Law / learning rates.

Absolutism, or a governing advocacy of a rule by absolute standards or principles is not how America works. In a democracy it takes a constant back and forth to accomplish the growth of an idea or change one's philosophy. And Economics always plays a part. Democracy always leaves itself wide open for anyone to criticize its disorder of function. In other words, it’s easy to point out its flaws to promote one's own sense of superiority.

And now, another POV ...

Quote:
Escobar: Russia Rewrites The Art Of (Hybrid) War
Sunday, May 22, 2022 - 04:00 AM

Authored by Pepe Escobar,

Hybrid War is being fought predominantly in the economic/financial battleground – and the pain dial for the collective West will only go up...

The ironclad fictional “narrative” imposed all across NATOstan is that Ukraine is “winning”.

So why would weapons peddler retrofitted as Pentagon head Lloyd “Raytheon” Austin literally beg since late February to have his phone calls answered by Russian Defense Minister Shoigu, only to have his wish finally granted?

It’s now confirmed by one of my top intel sources. The call was a direct consequence of panic. The United States Government (USG) by all means wants to scotch the detailed Russian investigation – and accumulation of evidence – on the US bioweapon labs in Ukraine, as I outlined in a previous column.

This phone call happened exactly after an official Russian statement to the UN Security Council on May 13: we will use articles 5 and 6 of the Convention on the Prohibition of Bioweapons to investigate the Pentagon’s biological “experiments” in Ukraine.

That was reiterated by Under Secretary-General of the UN in charge of disarmament, Thomas Markram, even as all ambassadors of NATO member countries predictably denied the collected evidence as “Russian disinformation”.

Shoigu could see the call coming eons away. Reuters, merely quoting the proverbial “Pentagon official”, spun that the allegedly one-hour-long call led to nothing. Nonsense. Austin, according to the Americans, demanded a “ceasefire” – which must have originated a Siberian cat smirk on Shoigu’s face.

Shoigu knows exactly which way the wind is blowing on the ground – for Ukrainian Armed Forces and UkroNazis alike. It’s not only the Azovstal debacle – and Kiev’s all-around army breakdown.

After the fall of Popasnaya – the crucial, most fortified Ukrainian stronghold in Donbass – the Russians and Donetsk/Luhansk forces have breached defenses along four different vectors to north, northwest, west and south. What’s left of the Ukrainian front is crumbling – fast, with a massive cauldron subdivided in a maze of mini-cauldrons: a military disaster the USG cannot possibly spin.

Now, in parallel, we can also expect full exposure – on overdrive – of the Pentagon bioweapons racket. The only “offer you can’t refuse” left to the USG would be to present something tangible to the Russians to avoid a full investigation.

That’s not gonna happen. Moscow is fully aware that going public with illegal work on banned biological weapons is an existential threat to the US Deep State.

Nah. The UN and western M$M will memory-hole the entire racket. And other nations already know about the USA's biological experiments because they have probably hosted some themselves... vaccine-testing, drug-testing, bioweapons-research ... a lot happens in nations like the Philippines and Brazil and Georgia... and China.

Quote:
Especially when documents seized by the Russians show that Big Pharma – via Pfizer, Moderna, Merck and Gilead – was involved in several “experiments”. Fully exposing the whole maze, from the start, was one of Putin’s stated objectives.

More “military-technical measures”?
Three days after the UN presentation, the board of the Russian Foreign Ministry held a special session to discuss “the radically changed geopolitical realities that have developed as a result of the hybrid war against our country unleashed by the West – under the pretext of the situation in Ukraine – unprecedented in scale and ferocity, including the revival in Europe of a racist worldview in the form of cave Russophobia, an open course for the ‘abolition’ of Russia and everything Russian.”

So it’s no wonder “the aggressive revisionist course of the West requires a radical revision of Russia’s

Control of the economy has always been a cornerstone of Putinism, but it came slowly in fits and starts. First, the oligarchs were targeted and brought to heel, and the public didn’t mind because the oligarchs were robber barons and hated villains. Yet the situation kept growing more complex. More and more people began ending up in jail for financial crimes as ruthless raids, often led by greedy officials, took over their businesses—as detailed in journalist Peter Pomerantsev’s chilling and brilliant book Nothing Is True and Everything Is Possible: The Surreal Heart of the New Russia.

By the time 2014 rolled around and Russian President Vladimir Putin seized Crimea, the reins began to be tightened in a more systemic manner, as driven by sanctions and growing Kremlin paranoia. Today, Russian officials speak openly of autarky and total state control of any company, foreign or domestic, that rebels against them. This is not realistic in the long term, but for now, the flailing Russian regime will attempt it anyway.

Putin seduced ordinary Russians by promising stability after the chaotic 1990s, and he delivered it. It’s just that his definition of stable is when everything is controlled by him, his friends, and their children. He “conquered” the oligarchs, sure, but for his own benefit.

Putin’s government threw some crumbs to the populace in the course of this conquest—but not out of civic duty. It was done to solidify Putin’s grip on power. Inequality in Russia only grew in the meantime, as an entire generation grew up in the shadow of Putinism—the same generation now being sent to kill and die in Ukraine. And why not? Putin and his circle have only ever viewed their fellow Russian citizens through the prism of disdainful feudalism.

As Russia suffers a continuous fallout from its decision to attack Ukraine, Russian officials will get more involved in business, not less. The corruption trough, the easy bribes and kickbacks, will not be nearly as plentiful, but a rapacious bureaucratic elite is accustomed to a certain lifestyle now—and they will bleed local businesses dry to maintain it.

The threat to nationalize companies departing the Russian market is only the beginning. Days before the invasion, a Russian Duma deputy made clear that confiscating ordinary people’s savings was potentially on the table should a financial crisis erupt. In a post-invasion world, this financial crisis is, of course, inevitable.

Today, for a Western business, staying in Russia doesn’t just mean supporting Putin’s war through tax money, though that is an obvious and important issue. It means full cooperation with authorities who insist that wiping out the country next door is a good and noble cause. It means accepting that your business exists only due to the good graces of Putin’s cronies.

This is the only way that business can be done in Russia because the Putinist nobility can’t have it any other way. It is not a free economy. It’s very clear that foreign companies can’t trust the Kremlin. A government in full fascist meltdown cannot be a good or even halfway decent partner. Executives trying to stick to existing deals or pandering to the hate around the invasion are giving a scorpion a ride and should not be shocked when it stings them.

A different case can be made for providers of essential products. Russian babies shouldn’t be denied their formula because their president is a murderous sociopath. But if you’re in the business of potato fries or glassware, energy drinks or dating apps, you can and should leave. Let the Kremlin develop its own dating app. Let Putin make his own energy drink—he can even pose shirtless on the can. Pale imitations of foreign goods are the least that his supporters deserve.

Soon after he was first appointed president in 2000, Putin published an essay claiming that he wanted Russia to reach Portugal’s level of GDP per capita by the end of his two terms in office. This was a realistic and pragmatic economic target, as Portugal was then the poorest EU member state. However, two decades later in 2021, Portugal’s GDP per capita in current USD was twice as high as Russia’s.

Despite the damage suffered by Portugal during the 2010 euro crisis, Russia has actually fallen further behind the Portuguese economy.

The methane leak, which comes from the Raspadskaya mine in Kemerovo Oblast, the largest coalmine in Russia, is about 50% bigger than any other leak seen by GHGSat since it started its global satellite monitoring in 2016. The company believes it is bigger than any leak yet traced to a single source.

Brody Wight, director of energy, landfill and mines at GHGSat, said that methane was an often overlooked side-effect of coalmining that added to the climate impact of burning coal. The Raspadskaya leak would add about 25% to the greenhouse gas emissions of burning any coal produced from the mine, he estimated.

Deeply cutting methane is the only sure way to limit near-term temperatures and prevent runaway climate change, yet every month brings new evidence that Russia is hiding the world’s most massive and destructive methane leaks. Putin is hiding these enormous emissions so he can continue to profit from sales of Russian coal, oil and gas and fund his war-making.

Putin’s Pals Furious Younger Russians Don’t Want to Die in Ukraine

As Russia’s invasion of Ukraine marches on, there is a dark undercurrent of waning public support—and it’s coming through even on tightly-controlled state television. In the first days of the bloody war, the public was promised a quick victory due to the superiority of Russia’s military. Instead, the Kremlin’s offensive has been plagued by heavy losses and equipment deficiencies, to the point that state TV pundits publicly contemplate seeking aid and assistance from other pariah states—including Iran and North Korea.

Russia has reportedly been involved in discussions with Iran to purchase their military drones, due to the severe shortage of its own unmanned aerial vehicles. During Thursday’s broadcast of the state TV show 60 Minutes, military expert Igor Korotchenko suggested that North Koreans could help rebuild destroyed Ukrainian regions and join Russia’s military ranks. Conversations about legalizing the participation of foreign fighters alongside Russian forces have been a recurring topic in state media, and for a good reason: everyday citizens are less than enthusiastic about the prospect of going to war or dying for Putin. That doesn’t sit well with top pro-Kremlin propagandists, such as state TV host Vladimir Solovyov—twice formally recognized by Russian President Vladimir Putin for his services in the benefit of the Fatherland.

During Thursday’s broadcast of his show, The Evening With Vladimir Solovyov, the host complained: “It irritates me that our society doesn’t understand that a watershed moment is currently taking place. We either stand up, build up and end up on another level, or simply cease to exist.” His guest, political scientist Alexander Kamkin, concurred and suggested that a “cultural special operation” be conducted in Russia.

The Kremlin’s tight control over the information disseminated to the public has failed to curtail access to outside sources, with tensions rising to such a boiling point that on Monday during Solovyov’s show, convicted Russian agent Maria Butina suggested jailing parents whose children use VPN to access foreign media. The host was likewise disappointed with the younger generation’s lackluster involvement in Putin’s war, complaining: “People who are planning to join [the military] are mainly of the same age as me, some are a bit younger... That is the generation that was raised on Soviet movies, Soviet literature and values. But the very young people I talk to, they faint if they cut their finger—and they see that as their democratic values... The special military operation is our Rubicon. I get the feeling that many here still can’t grasp it.”

Writer Zakhar Prilepin, who is wanted by Ukraine’s SBU security service on charges of “taking part in the activity of a terrorist organization” for his involvement in Russia’s war crimes in Ukraine, added: “We really need volunteers, we aren’t hiding that. We need to replenish dislodged personnel. Meanwhile, the topic of death is silenced. The topic of perishing is curtailed. In a society motivated by comfort, you can’t talk about death. Everyone is expected to go to war, win and come back alive. Better yet, not to go in the first place. Let me remind you that the Charter of the Imperial Army included in plain language: if you have three adversaries, go to war and advance, kill all three. If you have ten, then defend yourself. If your death has come, then die. It’s written very plainly: ‘Soldier, death is part of your job. It is part of your duty and your contract with the government.’ The same principles were adopted by [Joseph] Stalin, who had an Orthodox Christian education.”

Prilepin recited the lyrics of an old Soviet song, entitled “In the woods at the frontline”: “If you hav

The agreement talked about in the video works against Putin. Why, because it provided the Ukrainians time to build a real army backed by the west. One Putin knows can fight back and inflict large casualties if Russia should attack now. With Biden as President more arms will flow toward Ukraine making Putins’ Ukrainian situation untenable. This is a long term problem. The Ukrainians determination to recover their land will not dissipate. Putin has the watch, but the Ukrainians have the time.

Putins’ agreement with the Russian people is, while I am stealing from you, you too will see better times. I will also give you global victories that you can take pride in. That is all coming to an end. The global victories are no more, and the Russian people have experienced zero gains personally. Henceforth Putins’ creating an alliance and trying to hide under Chinas’ protection.

For new soldiers, Russia's mobilization is BYOB - bring your own battle gear

Much of Russia's newly-enlisted military force has had to turn to private citizens and organizations to supply their basic needs, according to Russian media — Or buy the gear themselves.

Unverified video footage was posted to Twitter on Sept. 26, showing an officer telling fresh soldiers to buy their own first aid equipment.

Russian news sources RIA and The Moscow Times both reported in early October that Russian troops were relying on the generosity and patriotic vigor of Russian citizenry for clothing, field equipment and medical supplies. RIA reported that military and camping equipment stores have been thoroughly ransacked, making any supplies difficult to find.

What is more, The Moscow Times reported that equipment prices are skyrocketing in light of high demand and low supply. 6B45 body armor, a critical piece of protective equipment, is reportedly selling on Russian online marketplace Avito for 40,000 roubles ($700).

Vladimir Putin Wears $6,000 Designer Coat To Visit Troops As Soldiers Are Being Sent Into Ukraine Without Shoes, Clothes & Guns

According to Daily Star, Putin’s designer coat is worth the same as seven kits seven Russian soldiers could be using as they are mobilized into Ukraine.

Even more surprising is the fact that the coat Putin wore over the weekend when visiting the Russian training ground is significantly less expensive than the nearly $25,000 Loro Piana coat he wore in March while celebrating the eighth anniversary of Russia's annexation of Crimea.

"It's somewhat shameful from a human point of view," Pier Luigi Loro Piana, the founder of Loro Piana, said when Putin wore the coat in March.

The Russian leader’s decision to wear expensive fashion brands as his own soldiers are being sent into Ukraine without proper supplies and weapons has drawn substantial scrutiny from his critics.

EU's Antitrust Charge Against Gazprom: Another Putin Disaster

"The trashing of Russia’s most valuable economic asset adds to Putin’s growing list of major policy disasters. By attacking Ukraine, he has alienated the Ukrainian people for generations to come. By saber rattling beyond the borders of Ukraine, he has rejuvenated NATO and given it new purpose. Putin has succeeded in pushing traditional sympathizers in the European community, such as Germany’s foreign minister; they’ve decided that the danger he poses trumps their business interests. Instead of raising Russia’s prestige and national pride, he has turned the country into a pariah state with a tottering economy and declining living standards."

This is what we're dealing with here, folks.

You need to be put in a padded cell for your own protection and for the safety of everyone unfortunate to be in your sphere of influence, IRL.

Boy it's so easy to keep you idiot democrats riled up over nothing to keep your mind off of the horrible behind the scenes shit your President* and his family did before he was elected*.

Your propaganda media has shifted from "Russian disinformation" to full on censorship to "Oh that? It's old news" now.

And it's so easy for them to make sure you never look into it yourself because you are incapable of thinking outside of the opinion that they have given you.

Sad.
