Russia Nears Invasion of Ukraine
BBC ^ | 12/7/2021 | BBC

Posted on 12/07/2021 12:05:02 PM PST by TangledUpInBlue

Responding to fears of a Russian invasion, Mr Biden agreed with leaders of the UK, France, Germany and Italy to use "all the tools at their disposal".

Moscow denies it has plans to attack.

But Russia has moved thousands of troops near Ukraine's eastern borders, and Ukraine says tanks have been moved to the front line inside its territory.

Hours before the video talks scheduled for 15:00 GMT, it appeared Washington was not planning a US military response, but focusing instead on tough economic sanctions.

In a conference call on Monday night, the White House said the five Western leaders had formed a joint strategy "to impose significant and severe harm on the Russian economy" should Russia launch an invasion.

You have to go to European media to find this story.

Hundreds of tanks MASH units and Aid stations Gas and oil moving to the front 90,000 troops there already and 60,000 more coming Building out Supply Lines

No one is talking about this. Shocked to not see it here. This is way too big to be a threat gesture.

************

The U.S. media refuses to cover anything that’s problematic for the Biden administration. Consequently the American public is largely left in the dark about important matters.

Not covered in the enemedia? guess it's not a deep state thing.

According to https://www.defconlevel.com/, we're at 3.

When this comes down, it will be all at once - Iran/Israel, CCP/Taiwan and Russia/Ukraine. Will start pulling in others - Australia (because of CCP), Japan (CCP), Ukraine (neighbors, US), etc.

Ukraine says tanks have been moved to the front line inside its territory.

Inside Ukraine territory? If so, the invasion has already started.

Gee, Do you think the Jihad Junta approves of Vlad’s “Adventures?” I would suspect they do.

They are just setting up Biden to be a hero for staring down Putin.

Building up ‘at the border.’ Which ‘border’?

Remember, Putin already TOOK part of Eastern Ukraine, so they are already massing forces inside Ukraine. It is also important to know the age-old Soviet method of moving ENTIRE POPULATIONS thousands of miles from home. Decades ago hundreds of thousands Ukrainians were replaced by Russians. That way Putin can state ‘we are moving in to protect’ Russian citizens. The other method employed at the same time is to install a puppet leader, who then requests assistance.

And let’s not forget the Terror Famine. The Soviets removed anything edible in the 1930s. Not just regular food, but also cats, dogs, varmints; the Ukrainians would not buckle down. Those that were not just killed outright, or taken to Eastern Russia, starved. There was no supply chain.

The democRATS of today envy the Soviets and the Chicoms.

Yes, a lot of this build up is apparently taking place in the previously annexed Crimea. Which Biden did nothing about the last time he was in power.

A winter offensive in that part of the world? Seems like a non-starter. But we shall see.

Sounds like NATO wants a bigger budget, and the DC junta wants to drop a money bomb on Kiev and the defense contractors want to sell a ton of new weapons.

And best of all, the globalist junta gets to distract everyone from inflation, shortages, fuel prices, exploding crime, and putting the US Constitution into a shredder.

The Ukrainians would be far better off if they forgot about NATO and Biden and instead purchased a sophisticated drone system. The Azerbaijanis decimated Armenian armor, inflicted huge causalities and won a decisive victory by deploying an Israel drone system.

The Russians covet eastern Ukraine where there has always been a strong Russian presence.

Allow Western Ukraine (the part that was formerly part of Poland and the Austro-Hungarian Empire) to become independent of Kiev, and eligible to join the EU, NATO and Visegrad if they wish.

The rest of Ukraine would then be a neutral state, I would neither allow Russian nor NATO to be there. Kind of like the deal we made with Austria in exchange for Austria to be reunited in 1955, unlike Germany, Austria was not allowed to be either a member of NATO nor the Warsaw Pact.

That’s unfortunate. I thought the Armenians were the good guys.
