economy, Iran, Russia

The Russian army is defeated and the Russian economy is destroyed. Thus, Russia can only plow ahead with the alternative economy, opening a beachhead bank in Iran.

Russia’s second-largest bank, VTB, has opened a branch in Iran, the country’s Trade Promotion Organization (TPO) announced on Twitter on Tuesday.

VTB is the first ever Russian bank to offer services in the Islamic Republic, according to TPO head Alireza Peyman-Pak.

The majority state-owned bank will promote “trade transparency” and play a role in transferring part of its foreign exchange earnings to the banking network, Peyman-Pak added in his tweet.

This bank will help build the RUS-Iran trade corridor, part of the greater Eurasian BRI network. The tell-tale sign of a true shift in global economic supremacy will come when Westerners start to open or try to open accounts in Tehran. I would say “enjoy your freedom fries”, but by the bloated looks of things, Vicky Nuland may have eaten all of them.

NATO, peace, Ramaphosa, Russia, Ukraine

Peace in the SMO will come when NATO, not Ukraine, is sufficiently beaten and capitulates to Russia. The sooner that happens, the better for everyone. The fake West is losing interest in the fight as well as the ability to affect it meaningfully. So, this might be the right time for Cyril Ramaphosa to try to help move things along.

Russia and Ukraine have agreed to host a peace mission from African leaders who are seeking to resolve the conflict between the two nations, South African President Cyril Ramaphosa has said.

During a press briefing on Tuesday, Ramaphosa revealed he had talked to Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky about the proposal.

“My discussions with the two leaders demonstrated that they are both ready to receive the African leaders and to have a discussion on how this conflict can be brought to an end,” Ramaphosa said, as cited by Reuters.

“Whether that will succeed or not is going to depend on the discussions that will be held,” he added.

Earlier this year, I noted that 2023 might be the year that Ramaphose sets himself apart from the average African leader. He’s heading BRICS+ this year. There’s his peace attempt. And, allegedly, he’s working with other Africans leaders on amicably, intelligently resolving another issue closer to home. Time will tell.

Clown World Arrogance Doomed The Great Counteroffensive

 

Kiev’s mighty counteroffensive against them mean, overly aggressive, and all-but-defeated Russkies started about a year ago. Or six months ago. Or around New Year’s. Or last week. Or never. Last I heard, Lil’ Ze, decked out in tactical high heels and a rainbow-colored camo SS uniform, was leading his fifty and sixty-year-old conscripts straight to the gates of Moscow. Rumor has it Joe Wilson (R – South Israelina) and Hunter Biden (D – Eightballistan) were in the van, guarding the Asstroglide supply. 

By now, you know the drill. The Russians, the only people really “in the know”, say very little. ZATO and its wholly-owned media spew forth a constant stream of lies. Part of the Clown’s lying comes genetically from something passed down by their father. Another part, a very large part, comes from plain old arrogance, a collective drinking of the Jonestown-esque Kool-Aid. Vladimir Putin, leader of the free world, called out the genesis of this diseased mindset during his Victory Day speech last week: “We believe that any ideology of superiority is inherently disgusting, criminal, and deadly”. That ideology, if unchecked, leads to forcible attempts of supremacy, which leads to conflict, which leads to death. How deadly? Some current estimates from the SMO, not necessarily exact, place the number of dead Ukies and ZATO ringers somewhere between 300-400,000 KIAs, with total casualties drifting toward one million. That kind of deadly.

The rulers of the dying yankee empire have subtly begun to shift their distracting focus away from their inevitable defeat in Europe. Your neighbor who still flies the Ukrainian flag, and who probably still wears a face diaper, is in for a rude awakening. She didn’t bother to check Lil’ Ze’s panicked “treason” comments as redacted the other day by the WaPo. She likely thinks, if that’s possible, that Evgeny Prigozhin is a tantrum-throwing lunatic and not, as Larry Johnson astutely surmised, a master of something similar to the CIA-SAD’s brand of misinformation and distraction in the cause of paramilitary engagement. She’s probably not worth talking to, but if you have to, please be kind. By then, if not already, she’ll likely be all-in on the next obvious unwinnable conflict – with China. The Clowns are already planning to give Taiwan the Ukrainian treatment, as evidenced by some recent idiotic admissions by Rep. Seth Moulton (D – Israechusetts) to the Milken Institute. Yes, that (((Milken))) Institute. In brief, the Clowns are willing to bomb Taiwan’s semiconductor industry out of existence, a multi-trillion dollar global techno-economic catastrophe notwithstanding, just to make life a little more difficult for Chairman Jiping. The very good news is that evil retarded schemes like that are driving Taipei closer to peaceful, willing reunification with Beijing. 

Clown World’s disastrous Taiwanese plan heavily relies on hypothetical naval power. The USSA historically conducted four types of warfare in order to gain and hold global hegemony: 1) deception, 2) terrorism, 3) short-term expeditionary tactics, and 4) sea-based power. Arrogance lies like a fog across all four. DC’s Navy (now, “Gay-vy”) was, for the past century or so, very competent, very dangerous, and very effective. All post-modern problems aside, to a large degree, it still is. It faces two insurmountable problems this century. The first is that it cannot sufficiently defend its costly capital ships against missile attacks. The second is the pervasive arrogance among the flag officers, the political trash, the fake military intelligentsia, and the just smart enough to watch “Top Gun” ‘Murican public. 

It’s been this way for some time. Have you, dear reader, ever heard about the 1970’s wargame wherein the tiny Belgian air force “sank” the Big John, CV-67? I didn’t think so. Cruise and the Bruckheimers may have omitted the fiasco from their otherwise entertaining movie(s). The Belgians “won” that battle due to their ingenuity and skill, and due to ‘Murican military arrogance. 

It’s been this way for a very long time. Have you, dear reader, ever heard of the Battle of Savo Island in 1942? Of the Solomon Campaign during WW2? A small flotilla of Japanese ships blasted the daylights out of the combined Allied fleet, scoring a major, nearly casualty-free victory for Tokyo. Again, the root cause was ‘Murican military arrogance. US Rear Admiral Richmond Turner admitted as much:

The Navy was still obsessed with a strong feeling of technical and mental superiority over the enemy. In spite of ample evidence as to enemy capabilities, most of our officers and men despised the enemy and felt themselves sure victors in all encounters under any circumstances. The net result of all this was a fatal lethargy of mind which induced a confidence without readiness, and a routine acceptance of outworn peacetime standards of conduct. I believe that this psychological factor, as a cause of our defeat, was even more important than the element of surprise. (Turner’s Memo to CINCPAC, May 13, 1943). 

Never misjudge the other guy. And treat all enemies as what they all can be – lethal adversaries. Of course, the US went on to win the War in the Pacific. In fairness to all concerned, mistakes were made around Savo by all parties. Once the grandeur of his nighttime victory wore off, IJN Vice Admiral Gunichi Mikawa was roundly criticized for not further pressing his advantages. Whereas the US succumbed to arrogance, Mikawa gave in – and not without good reason – to over-cautiousness.

Today, the primary factors that contributed to the inevitable US/Allied victory over Germany and Japan, practically guarantee Sino-Russian victory over Clown World. If one has ten minutes, then it might be instructive to play with this Coalition Builder model. Know that the data is out of date (e.g., they still list a Ukrainian navy), and multiple factors are missing. Still, one can directly pit “NATO”, backed by “Japan”, “Taiwan”, etc. against “Russia” and/or “China” and then assess the probable outcome(s). Summary: Clowns lose.

Back to the SMO, here’s a VIDEO that shows how well Brandon’s master’s counteroffensive is going. That was (emphasis on the “was” part) ZATO’s massive ordnance and fuel depot in Khmelnytskyi. I do not have precise figures, but it had to be thousands, if not tens of thousands of tons of ZATO munitions, or TNT equivalent, were destroyed in something approaching a Hiroshima-class explosion that registered somewhere between 3 and 4 on the Richter Scale. Perhaps a half-billion, if not a full billion dollars worth of “counteroffensive” supplies gone in an instant. 

If the MOD’s operational pattern is discernible, then it looks like a long series of episodes of watching the Clowns deliver armament after armament to the 404, letting those weapons take their place in the various cauldrons, and then annihilating them with artillery and missiles strikes – a strategy of allowing the enemy to continually defeat and disarm itself. The Khmelnytskyi offensive is much more aggressive. Perhaps it is a sign of a change in pace. Or, it could be the case of an opportunity too good to pass over. Either way, an enormous trove of potential firepower just ceased to exist. This is obviously a win for Moscow. But it is also good for the entire conflict, even as far as the Ukrainian people are concerned; the fewer weapons there are, the fewer men will be killed wielding them. For the people in western Ukraine, this wake-up call comes with an added radiological effervescence, the result of the UK ignoring Russian warnings about ZATO’s mini-WMD of choice (see Serbia and Iraq), depleted uranium. 

There’s also the double-edged angle for literal Americans and other real Westerners: none of those destroyed weapons can ever be used against us by our satanic foreign overlords. That’s good, as is the overall disarming of the Clowns, and the fact Clown constituent countries no longer have the capacity or funding to sufficiently replenish lost supplies. One downside is the loss of potential underdog initial material supply in the inevitable event of domestic unpleasantness. Still, all things considered, it is for the best.

In closing, a somewhat unsettling notion has grown in my mind for the last month or so. It regards a thinly-perceived strategy of the Clowns in their desperate attempts to remain alive and in power. Call it a great internal leap, maybe a lateral leap. I’ll keep an eye and a few neurons on it. For now, remember to never, ever trust, follow, or depend on the Clowns. They have ways of making their arrogant, evil insanity look desirable. Don’t fall for it. It is a psychological factor that only leads to defeat. Let all of that affect the Clowns alone.

In keeping with the recent theme of book promotions, I’ll recommend Disintegration and Losing Military Supremacy, both by Andrei Martyanov and Eisenhower At War, 1943-1945, by David Eisenhower (the General’s grandson). Of course, now is the time to purchase as many copies of The Substitute as one can afford.

deception, Russia, Wagner Group, War

Tom Ironsides being unavailable for comment this weekend, we turn to former CIA man Larry Johnson for an intelligent take on the Wagner, Prigozhin show and Werewestern overreaction.

I give credence to Alexander Mercouris’ reporting on the history of Wagner — i.e., it was formed under the direction of Russia’s military intelligence outfit, the GRU, and the Russian version of the FBI, i.e., the FSB. In other words, Wagner is more akin to the CIA’s Special Activities Division (i.e., SAD) [Dr. Ironsides’s old unit], which is the military arm of the CIA, and the French Foreign Legion. Wagner, in my opinion, is not under the operational control of Prigozhin. Not only is he a master of the culinary arts but he is a damn, fine actor. Prigozhin presents the world with the image of a man teetering on the edge of madness and megolamania and the intelligence agencies in the U.S. and other NATO countries lap it up.

…

…Prigozhin’s recent highly publicized outbursts, including expletive laden diatribes hurled at Russian military leaders, have raised hopes in NATO military and intelligence circles that maybe, just maybe, Putin’s inner circle is starting to crumble and that Russia really is nothing more than a gas-station with nukes.

I do not believe in coincidence. The fact that Prigozhin is linked so publicly with a military organization and an internet information operation that are all under the control of Russia intelligence, leads me to believe that he is an important actor in the Russian campaign to deceive and confuse the West about its true military plans and objectives. Last week, Prigozhin did his best to convince the NATO countries that Wagner was on the ropes and faced with a real risk of being overrun by newly energized and supplied Ukrainian troops. That was then.

And they fell for it, as idiots are inclined to do. The Clowns are, at best, conmen, and conmen, someone once said, are the easiest people to fool. Beaten, badly, by “Putin’s chef”.

evil, Russia, vets, WW2

The last war the yankee empire won was WW2 – won with, let’s just say, tremendous Soviet assistance. The Russians of today annually honor the sacrifices of their grandfathers, and they remember their American allies who helped them. A few of those allies, men pushing 100 today, are still around. Some of them evidently wanted to visit Moscow this week to see or participate in Russia’s Victory Day celebrations. Someone in DC had other ideas.

The US government intimidated several WWII veterans who wanted to fly to Moscow for the Victory Day parade, Russian ambassador to Washington Anatoly Antonov claimed on Monday.

US officials have blocked US veterans from reuniting with their Russian comrades in arms for the second year in a row, Antonov announced, even threatening to cancel their passports if they flew to Russia.

“We want the American soldiers to know that Russia is proud of their contribution to the common victory. The hostile US policy will not undermine the spirit of camaraderie during the Great Patriotic War. We consider it our duty to defend the truth about these heroes,” the ambassador said.

Got that? (((Blinken))), (((Garfinkle))), (((Nuland))), and (((more))) refused to help honor men who defeated Adolph Hitler’s Germany, threatening them instead. Pathetic and wicked. Join with the decent, sane Russians in saluting this final generation of US warriors. If this episode doesn’t at least heat the old collar, then something is very wrong with the wearer.

civilization, Europe, irony, Russia, The West

…the Russians will. Read about a continuing program, in Russia, to preserve a remnant of Western European Civilization.

“I think that Russia’s mission is to preserve European culture, and not let it die. Russia is not only an inheritor of Europe’s great culture, but, maybe, today it is its only and main champion,” he said in a video address to the participants of a roundtable meeting at the Russian State Duma (Parliament House) dedicated to the establishment of the public movement – “Russia’s Cultural Front”.

The prominent director noted that he supports the idea of such a Movement and is set to join it: “Russia will be carrying the flag of European civilization for the world.”

Vladimir Putin has mentioned this sentiment, usually with a spirit of one-sided friendship, several times over the past year. The terrible irony is that from Poland to Germany to England to the USSA, one moron after another keeps insisting Russia is the enemy. They so insist while tearing down any and all semblance of what they’re ancestors built and while trying hard in many cases to replace their own peoples with outsiders. The only noticeable outside crowd that cares? Russians.

Europe will free and rebuild itself. And one suspected longer-term goal of Russia’s SMO+ is to eventually help with that. With friends like these, Europe should be grateful.

CIA, JFK, NASA hoax, RT, Russia

Story One: RT heralds RFK, Jr. for (again) plainly stating the CIA murdered his uncle (and probably his father).

The CIA was behind the assassination of US President John F. Kennedy Jr. in 1963 and likely involved in the murder of US Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy in 1968, Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. alleged during an interview with WABC radio host John Catsimatidis on Sunday.

“There is overwhelming evidence that the CIA was involved in [JFK’s] murder,” Kennedy declared, describing it as “beyond a reasonable doubt at this point.”

The story ends with a rehashing of the 1967 CIA CYA memo on “conspiracy theories”, literally the deflective genesis of that idiotic phrase. You may remember that same memo, here, some time ago. (Here now, or RT later). Rt didn’t cover it (though I have), but the 1962 CIA-DOD memo on Operation Northwoods (9/11 -39 years), and JFK’s wise, angry rejection of the same that was one of four likely reasons why they murdered America’s last president who really thought he was the chief executive and acted like it. Not to worry, I’m sure the CIA is A-OK now…

Hand on to your tin foil! RT ain’t done. NASA’s manned Moon landing was just as real as Star Trek!

The former head of Russia’s Roscosmos space agency, Dmitry Rogozin, has expressed doubt that the US Apollo 11 mission really landed on the Moon in 1969, saying he has yet to see conclusive proof.

1… 2… 3… CoNSpRaCy tHeOry!!! Seriously, NASA still has the telemetry tapes… No, no, they “lost” those. The Moon rocks! Those are totally … fake, an unexplained chemical composition impossibility. Stanley Kubrick was onse … no, that doesn’t help. Hey! the set was so real, they used it in a Bond mov… Darn! There’s um, the er … those guys who told the other guys they went.

Ok, for those upset about the foregoing, keep the dreams alive! To help, here’s Gamazda with “Don’t Stop Believing”:

Oops, sorry. She’s Russian too (but do back up and watch her adorable English promo). Hang on… Here’s the same tune as accompanied by 65,000 MSU fans:

Hail State!

Heck, let’s shift gears completely and keep that last theme going a minute longer. A couple of years ago in St. Louis, they started doing the coolest thing:

Blues, just a suggestion, but how about retiring and raising a “Branigan 52” jersey?

Joe Wilson, Russia, WW3

Then thank Joe Wilson (R-Israel) and his gang of 18 (D/R – Israel).

Marvel at H.Res. 322. There’s a good breakdown at The Duran.

And what timing! The pathetic drone attack on the Kremlin did not appear to really rile Putin or the MOD. Yet, more than a few intelligent observers think this is the trigger that will push this thing to the next level (Bye-bye, Lil’ Ze). Read what M. K. Bhadrakumar wrote the other day.

Read that, and I may (or may not) comment further in next week’s column. Quick take: HR 322 is mostly irrelevant as are all things political. Still a stupid, evil idea. War? Not fully hot, yet. When or if it does … Maybe more next week. The Russians will continue to win their way. The USSA will continue to lose its way. There are some charts, trends, and TOE matters to look at. Etc.

Have a great weekend.

*Hello new readers. Glad you’re along for the madness. As ever, quality will improve tomorrow.

Assange for Gershkovich?

Julian Assange, justice, Russia

If you’re not convinced the Russians are the good guys, you’re either retarded or evil. Here – and it’s not concrete yet – is more proof:

If Moscow decides on a prisoner swap involving Evan Gershkovich, it should ask for Julian Assange’s release from a British dungeon, Russian State Duma Deputy Sergey Obuhkov said on Friday.

Obuhkov, a Russian Communist Party MP, told reporters that some members of the Duma have already proposed offering political asylum to former US President Donald Trump and trading him for Gershkovich.

“I say, let’s exchange him for Assange instead,” Obukhov told RIA Novosti.

Julian deserves his freedom, and what better way to live than in a truly free (and protective) country. One wonders how the Clowns will react. The only same is that in exchange the USSA would have to take back the WS (((Journalist))).

Russia Alone

China, geopolitics, Russia

Even more on THE game changer:

America’s pundits have a problem comprehending equal relationships between two sovereign and independent nations. And in this case, neither Russia nor China is inclined to declare a formal alliance because, simply put, an alliance inevitably requires assuming obligations and limiting the optimal pursuit of interests in deference to a collective agenda.

What emerges, therefore, is that Putin’s strategic calculus in Ukraine will be shaped much more heavily by events on the battlefield than on any Chinese input. Russia’s reaction to the Chinese “peace plan” regarding Ukraine testifies to that reality.

No sooner than Xi departed from Moscow, Putin in an interview with with Russia 1 TV, set the record straight that Russia is outproducing the West’s ammunition supplies to Kiev. He said, “Russia’s output level and its military-industrial complex are developing at a very fast pace, which was unexpected by many.”

Read the whole thing. Western pundits are only as keen as their masters allow them to be. As demonstrated for the last year, Russia is more than capable of defeating NATO. China’s waiting in the wings only means the death of the old satanic order and the birth or something new, something Sovereign. One day, even Americans might benefit – if they can shake off the control of the evil elites who destroyed their country.
