This can’t be, western MSM has long said Russia is running out of men, arms and missiles! Washing machine chips, shovels, Ghost of Kiev, ….Fools.

Russia manufactures weapons at a 7 to 1 ratio to the West. They have $75 trillion in natural resources, in need of nothing, energy, food, commodities, and most of all manufacturing facilities…all operating 24/7.

The EU has little of value, most everything is imported….little/ none commodities, energy, metals, ….and Germany’s seven auto plants ( shut down) will takes years to build weapons.

“They have $75 trillion in natural resources,”

Then,

Why are they broke having sold off their state pension fund to pay for Putin’s two-week week war.

They have $75 trillion in natural resources, in need of nothing, energy, food, commodities, and most of all manufacturing facilities.

$75 Trillion is the most commonly quoted figure, but likely vastly understates the actual value. They are by far the most self-sufficient nation in the world. This is something that few here seem to comprehend. The European Union has long sought ways to instigate regime change in Russia to leadership that will be more advantageous to the Western based oligarchy.

Pushing the Russians into any type of conflict where the West could justify crushing the Russian economy and causing a massive amount internal turmoil has been seen as the best way to accomplish this since the end of the cold war. This helps explain Biden's “Minor Incursion” Russia Remark, where he assured the Russians that no one would do anything if there was just a “minor incursion”. It was not one of his typical gaffes. The Biden regime and Western Europe was hoping for some type of conflict to start. They had been arming their recently installed Western leaning puppet government to the teeth and were chomping at the bit to get something going.

But as we have now seen it was a huge miscalculation that has now cost all involved parties dearly. But it is amazing the extent to which modern technology and techniques use old fashioned propaganda to influence the attitudes of millions about the abject stupidity that now has gone on for nearly 4 years.
