Please note that this is clearly not Mr.Putin’s full speech. The major speeches usually on Ruptly from any of the Russian leaders are being suppressed everywhere. The information war is becoming devastating. Amarynth

Sadly, the war goes on. In the next few days we will put to rest the first serviceman from Sevastopol who fell in the operation. He was Sarjant, Artillery and will receive several medals for his bravery.

Hi.
Loved your books!
I suggest a detailed history of this war as your next book. Fully researched as only a Russia can do.
Hope all is well with you and your family!!
US/ USAF/ 2 trips across Russia.
Glad you liked them, Troll (USAF). In regards to the next book, I’m already gathering information.

Though I’m not a Christian myself, I wish eternal glory to those brave souls. May they have a good rebirth
Russia fights an unfair fight and by being civilized in a way the West is not in waging war. Paul Craig Roberts wonders if the fight is too reserved by Russia.

Gail Tverberg via Our Finite World
The shrinking amount of energy per person means that, on average, fewer and fewer finished goods and services can be produced for each person. Some countries do better than average; others do worse. With low fossil fuel prices, Russia has been faring worse than average; it wants to remedy the situation with long-term higher energy prices. If Russia can start transferring its energy exports to China, perhaps the new Russia-China economy, with limited support from the rest of the world, can afford to pay Russia the high prices for fossil fuels that Russia requires to maintain its economy.
In this post, I will try to explain what I see is happening.
[1] It appears that Russia now fears that it is near collapse, not too different from the collapse of the central government of the Soviet Union in 1991. Such a collapse would lead to a huge drop in Russia’s living standards, even from today’s relatively low level.
If we look back at the Soviet Union’s energy consumption, we see a strange pattern. The Soviet Union’s energy consumption rose rapidly in the period after World War II. It became a military rival of the US, as its energy consumption grew in the 1965 to 1985 period. Its energy consumption leveled off before the central government collapsed in 1991. In fact, energy consumption has never gotten back to its level in the late 1980s.
´It appears that Russia now fears that it is near collapse ´ ……. not even close. I laughed when I saw that one.
Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater. The “fear” stuff is trivial compared to her primary thesis: Russia and China together hold the best cards at the global table. Her data tells the story.
pogohere: i don t know why, perhaps a vague foresight or feeling: the more I see the way things happening in the world – with emphasis in EU ,RU and CH – the more i feel that one or two of the biggest actors in the East will abandon WTO. its ties and the current philosophy it represents. Even if temporarily.
That I can go with. China and Russia have the only truly stable positions.
Gail Tverberg, actuary (and expert geopolitical and military strategist).
Hahahahaha, thanks for the laugh.
Dzoo wishful thinker
On of the better comment to Tverberg´s Article:
The likely problem with fossil fuels has been hidden behind an imaginative, but false, narrative that our biggest problem is climate change.
Gail Tverberg totally overlooks the fact that the world is uniting against the One World Order, and Russia is taking the lead by showing the way.
The west is about to collapse not Russia
https://youtu.be/OisJkpGYpAo
Collapse to hell and mighty high domestic and political prices.
Deceptive to use stats of consumption not by per capita then compare the old soviet to russia. Obviously populations are vastly different. Finding stats to suit a narrative
I used to read the writings of Gail Tverberg. All her articles repeat essentially the same points. Her basic thesis is correct:
1- The oil produced per capita has been dropping for over a decade
2- The hypothetical “reserves” are not what they appear to be. If it takes 2 barrels of oil to produce 10 barrels of oil, society as we know it will collapse.
Russia is in quite a unique situation. According to the “Big Mac” index, the cost of living in Russia is 1/3 of that in the West. Russia is a more resilient society for a multiplicity of reasons as best explained by Dmitry Orlov in his book “Reinventing Collapse”
It is clear to anyone who looks at finance that the EU is the most fragile area – especially countries with cold climates. Already, wealthy Europeans are moving their money to the USA – hence the rise in share prices there. Next, will be the collapse of the USA – an artificial society with too many internal contradictions. Russia will survive.
ABC News, before its depature from Russia due to new harsh antifake law being introduced, made interviews with Russian citizens about their stance on war in Ukrainie. ABC journalist was shocked, he admitted that majority of Russians voices support for Putin and their attidute against sanctions is like: “Bring them on, we don’t care about them”.
better than the pathetically stupid coverage in canada, at least. the cbc strategy since the start has been “for details on russia and ‘the’ ukraine…here’s a guy in vancouver with an irish surname.”
yesterday the anchor twat interviewed some indian medical students who had supposedly been holed up in a basement/bunker for 10 days because…? she actually asked if they were willing to go above ground, get guns and fight the evil ruskies. INDIAN. MEDICAL STUDENTS.
new lows keep coming.
No melodrama, no hyperbole, just information. Contrast with the equivalent material coming out of the West – and particularly note VVP’s closing remarks – “the Special Operation is continuing according to plan”.
Russia is in no hurry, and the leisurely pace in itself exudes a degree of confidence missing in Western “policing” operations (or rather “bomb everything flat” operations). Russia is showing the World how it should be done – right first time.
“No melodrama, no hyperbole, just information.”
Exactly. He is a real leader: Very busy and addressing people and the cabinet only the strictly necessary and going right to the point. Compared to BoJo or “The Hologram”, it’s day and night.
New interview with Scott Ritter discussing the question:

I think you will all like it. It is very positive.
Thanks.
Super interesting! And propaganda-free, as far as I can tell at least.
Thank you!
A question for the more geopolitically astute folks here. What do you think will happen if Russia succeeds in taking over Ukraine and the Ukrainians / mercs / ISIS and other US sponsored scum resort to guerrilla warfare while being supplied and based out of NATO countries that neighbor the Ukraine ? Will Russia just engage them after they cross the border or will Russia hit their bases and supply depots in the NATO countries ? It seems that this is the ultimate goal / trap of the Americans whether Russia is victorious or not.
If a given country provides terrorists with a training ground and weaponry and sends them (allows them to cross the border of) Russia, Russia has full right to destroy the terrorist training ground in the unfriendly state. A number of highly-precision strikes will resolve the question in a reasonably short period of time. International law must be protected from state terrorism.
The perfidious west did not want to listen to Putin; now they are primed to listen to Shoigu. Long overdue. Let NATO enjoy the presence of Ukrainian Nazis (and the awakened home-grown Nazis). In combination with the energy crisis, the Nazification of Europe might produce some eureka moments in the minds of the humiliated people of Europe.
No, Russia will just exterminate them as they cross the border.
That might be a very dangerous move for the US, since two can play that game, and American key infrastructure is already in a poor state of repair.
Of course, there’s this little incident –
https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB10001424052702304851104579359141941621778
To date, the perpetrators have yet to be found, and the amount of damage caused by relatively small-calibre fire was very significant. Switch from the NATO 7.62mm round (approx 3,200j muzzle energy) to say a 0.50 BMG round (up to 20kJ muzzle energy), and you might wonder how much “extra” damage could have been inflicted, in a lot less than 10 minutes. Replace those guns with man-portable RPGs (the sort of “lethal aid” the US and allies love to provide), and it’ll take a lot more than 27 days to get that facility back on line! :-)
A small number of suitable equipped “individuals with a serious grudge” (and there are plenty of those in the USA) could cause irreversible damage if they were so inclined, especially with a little “outside help”.
If the US plays this game, Russia can too, and the US has a LOT more to lose.
I do quite a lot of work within the power generation industry, so I happen to know that my city is connected to the larger grid by a single transmission cable (we can generate but not enough to exist without the ATC grid/transmission). In reality, the infrastructure to transmit and deliver electricity and petroleum products is incredibly insecure. I’ve been to places on pipeline routes where the pipeline is no more than 6” deep. They’re not hard to find and long stretches are through uninhabited wilderness.
So I guess I’m not surprised by the WSJ article except that someone actually did it. Although when I received my training to enter high voltage switchyards, the instructor told us that copper thieves will enter them, drill a hole in the ground breakers, and let the oil drain. It trips the breaker and then they cut open the breaker and remove the massive copper coil inside.
Interesting and not at all unexpected. Add in the NIMBY aspect, where such “unsightly” installations tend to be remotely located (also, since “out of sight” helps to reduce the incidence of mindless vandalism), and the result is a fragile system by design.
Your comment on copper thieves is scary – those voltages are significant, and relying on earth trips to isolate the system is hardly good (nor safe) practice, however I suspect the perpetrators are none to concerned, and “the occasional death” is a price worth paying??
This is only the beginning, wait until inflation really kicks into gear and gas goes to $8-$9 dollars a gallon wait until your paycheck won’t cover your food and rent than the real chaos will kick in, then you will see homeless camps sprout up like the new grass in spring million’s more will be living in poverty, and they will be lucky if anarchy isn’t the rule of the day, and it’s all there you can smell on the wind.
Russia is not “taking over” Ukraine, they are cleansing it of the US/NATO neonazi scum, mercs, and terrorists.
The Ukrainians are getting a very good look at their oppressors and their saviors, and will soon be assisting the latter in removing the former.
@ Black Cloud
That was the original stated goal, but Putin’s remarks yesterday suggest that Ukraine faces “loss of statehood” if it does not surrender or negotiate a peace. That implies a takeover and at best a Russian puppet government for a considerable time.
It appears surrender is unlikely as the US is already planning for a government in exile in Poland.
Ca peut être une division de l’Ukraine en plusieurs entités étatique et non pas une occupation.
J’aime bien, d’ailleurs, les discours de Putin qui peuvent dire une chose pour les “fous” des MSM et d’autres choses pour les “connaisseurs” dans les camps adverses qui comprennent et qui doivent avoir des frayeurs.
Guerrillas are insignificant in the scope and causes of the clash.
The first and most important question one must ask is:
“Would West attack Russia with first nuclear strike if there is no possibility for retaliatory counter strike?”
Knowing mindset of western oligarchy, do anyone thinks they would miss the opportunity again?
The interceptor missile silos in Redzikowo, Poland and Devoselo, Romania are meant to destroy Russian ICBMs, including Sarmats, during launch phase before they reach hypersonic speeds. If those interceptors and offensive missiles like “Dark Eagle” become operational, Mutual Assured Destruction (MAD) protection is shattered and crazies will have opportunity to start nuclear war at whim. Without fear of being destroyed themselves. At least they will have huge stick in any future negotiations.
This is the main reason why Russia had to attack immediately.
Ukraine is just first step in the procces, the real s-storm will start when those SM3 silos come into range of Russian army. They are in the NATO countries. Nevertheless they must be pulled back out of the range (2500km (!) from Russia borders) or being destroyed completely, together with their AEGIS guidance systems. In reality, that means complete denuclearization of EU. Which is the end goal of Russia.
The alternative is to peacefully wait for the first strike (that can not be stopped), hoping that western elite won’t do it.
This is similar to Cuban crisis in 1962, only worse. There is quite different president in WH than JFK was. So do not bother with guerrillas.
You have to wonder how effective AEGIS / AEGIS Ashore might be against Russian ECM / ECCM capability. Russian ELINT certainly knows the full capabilities of this system, and since any intercept will be dependent on reliable, presumably high-bitrate communication between the missiles and home guidance (I believe the interceptors rely on semi-active guidance) then corruption of such datalinks might render the system ineffective.
Then there’s both Russian AND Chinese ASAT technology – which we know works very well indeed, since there was so much hyperbole spouted by the Western media (carefully ignoring the various “classified” US tests of course).
For your entertainment – https://cosmosmagazine.com/space/russia-anti-satellite-weapon-test/
I particularly liked “Prof” De Zwart’s comments that the test was “particularly irresponsible”. Maybe the good Lady might consider the offensive actions against Russia since 2014 to be just as “irresponsible”, but that doesn’t fit the narrative does it. Mind you Flinders “University” is pretty much on a par with the USA’s “Diploma Mills” and as an Aussie I tend to ignore what they spout (which is generally “look, me too” garbage.
Just another example of the very-entrenched “China / Russia Bad” mindset in Australia.
This is the time when all of us should have had the opportunity to access alternative platform sources. Russia (and or together with China) should have created their own versions of high quality, world class alternatives to To ouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc in all languages that easily accessible, user friendly and able to rival or surpass any of the Western platforms. Most of us are still reliant on Google etc to find any information we can. Why haven’t Russia (and China) created their own independent internet system yet? This is the only way to fight the information war. I know some of you will say but they do have their own platforms but I’m sorry but they are still inferior to anything the West has created. The sad thing is both countries have the human resources of high intelligence and creativity to produce such high quality internet platforms but they’re just not doing it. I really don’t understand why. Please explain.
There is only one Internet and there can only be one Internet, the main issue of creating another one is how the user, you and I etc., connect to that Internet from our separate locations. If one country creates it’s own “Internet” it’s now an Intranet being only available within that country’s jurisdiction by the limitation of who can connect to it.
The same can be achieved within a company,or, an organization,or, a home!
If that Intranet has some kind of bridge connection to “The” Internet the whole can now be called an Extranet.
You will be doing yourself a favour by not using google for anything!, try duckduckgo as a search engine and translate dot yandex dot com as a translator.
Both Russia and China have a vibrant presence on the Internet it’s just not generally available for the English speaking population of the globe, this is one of the reasons Russia does not do so well on the propaganda front.
Personally I find propaganda in general to be distasteful, perhaps Russians and Chinese do to!
Thanks for the reply. Makes a lot of sense. Appreciate it.
” There is only one Internet and there can only be one Internet, the main issue of creating another one is how the user, you and I etc., ”
You’ve never heard of Internet 2 I see.
Hi isw,
I don’t know what Duckduckgo is like in your country. In mine (England), from what I can gather from my admittedly limited understanding of search engines, Duckduckgo uses Google for its results so its a sh’t show either way for me when trying to get genuine unadultrated search results.
A few years back, they started putting algorithms into the search engines to filter so you only recieved their desired results. The PTB (powers that be) claimed they were doing this to stop crime, propogation ot terrorist videos, and peadophiles. No doubt a worthy cause if it was actually true. Unsuprisingly, the three evils I just mentioned are still going strong on the internet. The only thing they really blocked was results from independent news sites – no doubt that was the real intention of the PTB (considering that there are a lot of peadophiles in their ranks).
If anyone from Britain knows of a good unfiltered search engine then please post here. It’s not likely that I will find any by searching for them via CIA Google!
ymmv…
22 Alternative Search Engines to Use in 2022
https://kinsta.com/blog/alternative-search-engines/
I learned Russian at unıversity, have tried to refresh my knowledge of it and am finding it useful now. I don’t depend on English-language sites. Most people have to however.
Bitchute has been around for ages – James Corbett has been plugging it for at least 3 years. I don’t use Google any more except for a legacy email account. I’m seriously thinking of shutting that down too. I never use Facebook nor Twitter and I only use WhatsApp for very occasional communication with family members about joint meetings. You can live very, very happily without Western ICT infrastructure.
A piece of advice to the Russian authorities.
Given that at the informational war level Russia needs some improvement vis à vis the US-NATO side, I’d quickly prepare a video or a short movie depicting the life and actions of the brave leader who lost his life in the battle against the nationalists.
That should help deliver a clear message about the professionalism and morale of the Russian troops, while Ukrainians may not have such a hero at that level.
Five years after the US invaded Iraq everyone knew there were no WMDs.
This won’t take as long. In five years regime change will have swept the west and NATO will be history.
I hope so. The future is unwritten and we must do our part to write it.
Washington Post reports that the US and allies are preparing a Ukrainian government in exile led by Zelensky, as they are counting on a long “bloody” guerrilla war with Russia..
BREAKING: A potential cyber attack is blocking some international calls to Russia.
I just confirmed this myself.
When I dialed a Russian number, a message played calling Russia a fascist state for invading Ukraine.
It seems that Benett (zio entity) was in Moscow today to ask Russia to block Iran JCPOA agreement which is
now suddenly pushed by US/EU after years of sabotage.
They(US/EU) want Iran to switch side, provide oil + gas, to be able to embargo oil+gas from Russia.
Problem, it can not be done immediately, it would take time and another problem China is a big client of Iran,
will never agree.
Iran owes Russia 100 billions + 100 billions in future weapons orders. US wants IR to buy US weapons iso.
In exchange for a partial cancellation of sanctions.IR wants all is money seized back in one payment.
Isra hell, wants to attack Iran and feels betrayed by US.
They would put pressure on US/EU to cool down on sanctions in exchange for Russia slowing down JCPOA
approval.
A deal woud also concerns Syria, as zios well understand that RU will not have the means to continue ops in
Syria.
They want Assad out but in exchange RU could keep Tartous, and they would share oil/gas tripartite
(IS/SY/RU), yankees will stop to steal the oil.This will allow to rebuild Syria.
Isra hell would attack Iran and then have free shooting rights in Syria against Iran resistances forces.
The all ukraine and syria wars thing are linked of course since 2013, only naive and idiots don’t understand that
double link.
Summary: RU keep UKR do what you want we don’t care
Iran block jcpoa, don’t react if we attack IR
Leave Syria, but we may do business on oil/gas and you keep tartous base
In exchange we find a way to lower sanctions on you and no change in trade between IS and RU
to the contrary(no sanctions and more deals including UK reconstruction).
…and how about me?
I need some recon..silly…strucio
…No Send Moneyz
And I promise I save vagine…no show vagine I promise send money to Putine!
I am all in…at this point.
Israel is not going to attack anybody. This is just talks – propaganda. Tela viv simply doesn’t have what it takes to even attack Hezbollah or Syria let alone Iran.
Importantly, Hizbollah has strongly rejected comments made by the Lebanese government favorable to the NatoNazis.

Nasrallah knows the score, obviously, and the knife’s edge situation in Syria could globalize the Banderastan war. Imagine the EuRodents reaction if their beloved squatter colony had to defend the StolenGolan…
The mental gymnastics would be epic.
…actually this is how event in could turn out:
– Faced with a long – protracted war in Ukraine as being envisioned by the US, Russia’s main option would be to open a second asymmetrical response around Syria i.e. help the Syrians take back the Golan Heights. Hence, Naftali Bennett’s rush trip to Moscow, perhaps.
– Using this strategy, Moscow is telling the US that it must order its lackeys in Ukraine including the nationalists or the neonazis to pack up and free Ukraine and her people who are being taken as hostage right now.
– This strategy could work if V. Putin is successful in curbing the existing 5th, 6th columns in the current Russian political atmosphere whose interests are tied to the continuation of the dollar system.
– Of course when one talks about the Dollar, he/she is in fact referring to Israel, since Tel aviv exists at the very core of this global dollar thing.
– Now if Washington is hell bent on hurting Russia from Ukraine, Moscow has another big option, that’s with Iran’s help simply block the Persian Gulf to oil shipping to Western countries, pending they demonstrate conformity and civilized patterns of behavior.
Immoral swine (US networks).
An interesting study would be to name who ultimately owns the US media networks.

The latest “delight” from one of the USA’s most servile vassals.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XSJQsCk1qz0
I assume the majority of commentators are Australian (since this is one of the “official” Aussie news sites), so as of 2 hours post initial posting there are over 3000 essentially “anti Putin / Russia” comments.
Says a lot for the majority of my Countrymen, does it not! As for “the Russian economy is on the verge of collapse” – a common comment – this too shows the lack of understanding (and complete dis-interest in even thinking that there may be two sides to this unfolding story).
Such servile, unimaginative, “follow the crowd” thinking bodes very badly for Australia’s future.
They are all bots. Typical western propaganda at work. Murdoch news site says it all
Yes ….. well, at least there is one other Aussie who thinks like you …. I am stunned by how the media is covering it and stunned by the anger at anyone who does simply fall into line
Stan Grant on the ABC throwing out someone who dared to disagree with him on Russia shows that debate has sunk without trace.
Still, how the media covered covid should have warned us
When I write, ‘stunned’ I do not mean surprised, I am not a bit surprised, just stunned
It is remarkable that CNBC chose to post this.
VVP allude to, in a matter-of-fact way, the reason why Russia will prevail — he mentioned that he had just awarded a high decoration to a bafly injured Dagestani RF commander who chose to blow himself — and the enemy — up with a grenade.
More importantly he reiterated that RF is a multi-ethnic, muti-religious, multi-cultural country, but all getting together fighting for a common cause; something the ‘civilised’ West, so used to looking at the RoW, since the so-called ‘Age of Dicovery’, as uncivilised savages only fit for exploitation, will never understand.
The Ukraine is finished in its present form — and please pardon my words — it is like an old well-used prostitute in the process of being discarded by its pimps and left to fend for itself.
I thiink Russian TV should be giving a regular history lesson to their viewers so they do not forget the histrorical perspective in which this current conflict should be framed in i.e. that this is, literally, a fight for the survivial of Russia itself and the rest of the world (inlcuding the vast majority of everyday people in the West that are uninformed and have no real say whatsoever over their own lives never mind world issues).
This should be especially aimed at the teens to the mid-thirties aged citizens. Remind them of the ‘wonderful’ times their parents and grandparents had when they were ‘liberated’ by the West. Remind them of golden era under the corrupt traitorous (country selling client) regime of that filthy drunk Yeltsin. That ‘heady’ time when utter morally bankrupt scumbags, like the faux economic liberal Jeffrey Sachs, were marauding across your country economically raping the shit out if it.
Remind them that if this is allowed to happen again then that will be it, there will be no escape this time as people like your current leader do not come around very often and certainly not in the same country. They will then realise that being blocked from needless products like the latest i-Phone will be the last of their worries!
Please correct me if I am wrong, but I remeber a reading a statistic at the time (about 5-10 years into economic ‘liberalisation’) that the average life expectency for a Russain dropped to a shockingly low 35 years old!
Maybe they should also juxtapose footage from the first few days of this current operation with footage from the (sadly numerous) so-called ‘humanitarian inerventions’ by NATO. In all those operations, they were deliberately targetting civlilians (and non-military infrastruture) from day one.
I know you are angry with my country (Britain) and rightfully so. Please understand that most of my people have no clue as to what is truly happening due to our terrible MSM. It is nearly fact-free and the ‘party line’ is being driven by cheap insults and faux emotion. I try to tell people, ‘look at the way they treat us and we are supposedly their own people. Do you really think they give a f’ck about people somewhere else in the world?’
Thanks for being here Saker. Not just for your articles, but it is heartening to see comments from my fellow countrymen/women. It, slightly, reduces the feeling of being alone in an open air lunatic asylum.
Most of the Russians are aware about historical context of current war in Ukrainie. They remember Nazi war crimes, when Germans have wiped entire Russian villages just to make space for colonizers or when they used scorched earth tactic upon retreating, which took lives of about 5 milion Russians in the Eastern Ukraine. They are still people in Eastern Ukraine, who survived Second World War, but they have to once again witness almost the same horror from the past. All thanks to USA, UK, Germany, France…
An excellent translation. Thanks!
I would prefer original language and subtitles, but i cant find it….
Thank God for President Putin. Humble and sincere. First details the fallen men, by name before the progress of war. My heart goes out to everyone involved in this tragedy. It is unfortunately a necessary tragedy. Change will come – what it will be – we do not know. One thing is for certain the US of CIA have now got 2 nails firmly hammered down on their coffin lid, namely Syria and Ukraine. May the Axis of Good march on, and send this ingrained Evil into its grave with all it’s lies and deception along with it.
Reports say that she had told the Daily Mail Russia would become ‘lord of the world’ after Europe is reduced to a ‘wasteland.’
Baba Vanga: Bulgarian seer’s predictions about Russia’s rise go viral amid Ukraine war
Real name Vangelia Gushterova, Baba Vanga was nicknamed “the Nostradamus of the Balkans” for her eerily accurate predictions including the rise of ISIS and Brexit
The propaganda war is getting intense.
Even discussion of the war that mocks or ridicules the Zone A position, even in non English, seems to be banned on Youtube.
According to an unconfirmed report, in the first seven days of the Russian attack on Ukraine, the Russian army destroyed:
11 American biolabs, 4 German Toxic Chemical Centers, 3 Swiss Nanotechnology Centers, 1 French Biotechnology Laboratory, 3 Israeli Laboratories working on airborne rabies weapons. Also, Russian forces carried out precise strikes on a mobile biolab trying to transmit deadly pathogens across the Ukrainian border in Poland. Russian SU-35 aircraft used a laser-guided municipality to eliminate stray labs.
All this takes place under TV and other media performances about the war and the heroism of the piano player, actor Zelenski.
What Russian Minister Sergei Lavrov said behind a UN rostrum in an empty hall, about American concerns about the fate of their biolabs in Ukraine, is no longer valid.
There are no more American concerns. Neither is the biolab. They were destroyed.
Airborne rabies is about as horrifying as biowarfare gets. If Israel is working on that on Russia’s border, I wouldn’t think it would do much positive for their relationship. Not at all.
Historians, and today’s commentators, love to write about “collapsing” empires.
An examination of the historical record reveals the exact opposite: empires don’t collapse. They crumble, slowly, sometimes agonizingly, piece by piece.
Name any empire you like. The Roman? For centuries it was riven by civil war and finally moved east, to become Byzantium.
The Mongol? It simply devolved into a number of states that persisted for centuries.
Aztec? Inca? These were not true empires and in any case were destroyed from without.
Greater Russia was never an empire, and when its time was done it simply devolved into separate states.
Last on the world stage was the British. It didn’t collapse, but merely devolved into farce.
And America? It is already crumbling. Central and South America have always resisted the imperial yoke, and as the US slowly weakens they will break free. As for Europe, eventually they will figure out that doing another’s bidding without advantage to themselves, indeed to their great detriment, is suicidal.
If we owe Russia and Putin, and China and Xi, anything, it is for this: demanding that reality not fantasy prevails.
As an American I am offended by this video that shows Pres. Putin NOT using a teleprompter, which I am sure is a deliberate attempt to slight our leader.
Anyone who watched Pres Biden speak fluently and unfailingly coherently knows that he does not need a teleprompter; he is only using it to reassure us that all the data he cites are documented.
President Putin does not even look at sheet on his desk while he speaks, which is another defying gesture. In his address he boasts about the benefits the RF provides for the Russian military but nothing in it mentions tents, which we do generously provide for our homeless veterans. USA USA USA
In one of his recent fantastic introductions, Saker referenced a VIP Russian who said, essentially, that Russia was going to have to re-design its economy. This is absolutely true because Russia’s present globalized, “capitalist” system –an economic system in which microscopic percentages of the capitalist nations’ populations own the vast majority of wealth, resources and large-scale capital equipment within each nation for its own astronomic profit — can not survive in either a go-it-alone economy, or in an economic arrangement between a group of nations. (It also cannot survive in the present globalized arranement, either, which is why we see what we’re seeing today in the US-owned and controlled mercenary-nation called “Ukraine”.)
I do not know if the-even-smaller microscopic percentage of the microscopic percentage in Russia that has the power to control the military and literally order changes to be made to the economy realizes at this point how exetnsive and extreme that re-design is going to have to be, but I believe we will soon find out.
This period of world history will determine the fate of “capitalism” that has the definition or arrangement that I’ve just described. In this regard, in late July of 2021, only eight months ago, I made the following comment on a typically great article by Pepe Escobar:
/requiem-for-an-empire-a-prequel/#comment-960626
In it, I make reference to, and further elaborate on, an episode of RT’s “Worlds Apart” entitled Forever until it ends? Georgi Derluguian, professor of social research & public policy at New York University, Abu Dhabi in which Oksana Boyko interviews Derlugian. The question the interview attempts to answer is bone simple. Unlike previous economic systems that eventually failed, can “capitalism” survive? I think that it is more than appropriate to ask that question right now.
Read and see it here http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/67903, March 3, 2022, Meeting with Security Council permanent members.
Should use the term “special operation” rather than invasion. The translation for “invasion” into Chinese/Japanese has very bad connotations.
Amarynth, or Saker,
I want to ask if any of you can access the Kremlin and the Russian Foreign Ministry websites.
I have tried various methods, but they are still not accessible. Is there any information on what is going on, and how they can be accessed?
Thank you in advance.
Retrouvé dans mes anciennes recherches sur ce qui s’était passé en Ukraine en 2014 et bien avant.
Il y a tous les protagonistes, toute l’histoire et toutes les photos des “grands” du monde avec la clique néo-nazie.
