You really could not be more wrong. The deep State are the very people that you support. People do not say it okay, people say that it is hypocritical to say it is okay for some countries and not okay for another to look after their own interests.

I get your point, “Poland needs a lesson” is exactly the same as Rah-Rah Yeah War! in June 1914.

This is insanity.

There won’t be any smiley faces when the nukes fly.

This is 1914, but instead of Verduns, it can be many Hiroshimas in the end.

Yep, I am aware, but what can we do at this point? Biden is going to make his puppets do it to save midterms. Tell him.

Time to open NSII.

That would require more common sense than the EUro-weenies can muster. 😃

I’m curious...how do you see this conflict even continuing for much longer, let alone escalating?

Ukrainian soldiers are dropping like flies. The casualty numbers given to the Europeans prior to their meetings were enormous; almost unbelievable. Yesterday, the MOD claimed they had “destroyed” 750 in one day and enormous amounts of equipment including 10 brand new howitzers and 20 brand new armoured vehicles from the West plus dozens of already used stuff. Their defense official came out the other day and said they had already gone through 50% of all their weapons. They have nothing left to fight with.

Today the MOD printed three stories about their troops refusing to go where assigned, refusing to follow orders, leaders leaving troops pretending they have some disease, etc.

There is no place left to acquire the necessary “cannon fodder.” They are chasing potential recruits down the street trying to present summons.

When you read their telegram websites they are demoralized and hopeless.

This is from their General Command morning briefing:

At Lyman, Avdiyivka, Kurakhivka, Nova Pavlivka and Zaporizhzhia directions Russian army shelled Kalynove, Ocheretyne, Berdychi, Zhelanne, Tonenke, Severne, Orlivka, Semenivka, Vesele, Avdiyivka, Netaylove, Vodyane, Opytne, Pervomaiske, Pisky, Krasnohorivka, Maryinka, Novomykhailivka, Pavlivka, Schevchenko, Velyka Novosilka, Vremivka, Olhivske, Zelene Pole, Novopil, Temyrivka, Poltavka, Malynivka, Chervone, Zalizhnichne, Huliaipilske, Novodanylivka, Orikhiv and Kamianske, - General Staff of Armed Forces of Ukraine says in the morning report

They are shelling EVERYWHERE!

Zelensky has held out hope for big new weapon shipments. They aren’t coming. They have deserted him and want a negotiation. It’s all petering out.

They are a spent force and will have to decline the invitation to WW3. The other NATO members have never had the ability to engage in this kind of a battle anyway and even if they wanted to they couldn’t. They already gave much of their weaponry to Ukraine over the last 3 months.

World War 3 for Dummies

by The Truth Seeker / June 19
Gaius Baltar for the Saker Blog

“Some knowledgeable people, apparently including the Pope, are beginning to suspect that there may be more going on in the world than just the war in the Ukraine. They say that World War 3 has already started and things will get worse from now on. This can be difficult to determine while we are participating in the unfolding events and do not have the benefit of the historical perspective. It is doubtful that people back in 1939 realized that they were looking at the start of a major worldwide conflict, although some may have suspected it.”

I realize that the Neocons now need WW3 now that they can’t win in Ukraine, but the problem they have is that Russia isn’t as interested in it.

So I expect that the Neocons will have to back off, and if they don’t, I suspect the US/UK military will tell the Neocons that they’re not interested in starting WW3 (as they did when the Neocons tried to start WW3 in Serbia, 24 years ago).

I’d argue that we don’t know there’s a war on in Ukraine now.

Just a noisy occupation.

“Germany in particular was quite hostile to the idea of bringing more North American gas into Europe to wean them off Russian supplies. Said it was a stupid idea and that they didn’t have any need for it.”

They still don’t have a need for US gas as Russia is PERFECTLY HAPPY to continue selling them gas per their contracts (i.e., cheap).

All good stuff you posted, but I think WWIII comes from the US, Canada, and England. Then toss in the second string players of Turkey, Poland, and others. Ramping up a war has always been fairly easy, just need the right propaganda.

Why the US? Because so much is failing for the democrats at home. They have always used large wars to deflect from their failures. Canada, too.

Now let’s toss in a new twist: The global elites. They want most of dead. Covid is doing some of that job, but a world war, especially a nuclear war, would suit them just fine.
