Indeed. That stunt would years ago have caused quite a stir, and may have led to most people stopping for just bit to think to themselves “Hey, wait a minute. This isn’t right. Who is this guy again, and why are we playing with matches around the powder keg of WWIII?” Today, a different story; we’re a different species.

This war will not last another year. Kiev will launch another attack or two but I don’t think they have the juice to seize much more land. Lots more people on both sides will die—BUT without outside military help—Ukraine has lost—They must get support from a major power (like the USA) if they are to make any headway and that support is getting limp as losses mount. If I was old Zelenskyy I would do anything, even kill Americans (blame Putin naturally) to get US Troops and USAF No Fly Zone over my nation. Otherwise he is a dead man. The end? One would be Zelenskyy deposed like Mussolini and new Government make a deal with Russia to stop the fighting. We shall see.

another one of your brilliant predictions?

like this one?

"This ship is to monitor and launch if the USA does something stupid like a First Strike. Russia will take out our eyes in the sky, blitz the electrotonic net and send in their armor. We may well be at war by Monday...."

How do you launder 155mm shells and HIMARS rockets?

I’ve asked that over and over, with no answers.

Save your vitriol for those who are taking sides in this. I’m not.

1 million rounds of 155mm. That’s 100lb of forged and machined steel, copper driving bands and high explosive, with a rather fancy fuse. Oh, and a big brass case, primer and @20lb of propellant.

Those are not your bulk 9mm.

They’ll lose even more men if they go on the attack. It’s the nature of the conflict that the attackers suffer higher casualties.

“This ship is to monitor and launch if the USA does something stupid like a First Strike. Russia will take out our eyes in the sky, blitz the electrotonic net and send in their armor. We may well be at war by Monday....”

I am really happy that one didn’t happen! But, we didn’t do anything stupid to cause it—GREAT! For predictions like that—It remains possible—But I am very glad it didn’t happen! I hope I am always wrong about Nuke war!

So Zelensky is a Russian stooge now. Will Ukraine issue a death warrant for him?

Remember the screaming about how the Iraq wars were always about oil ? And how the left STRETCHED reality to place that money directly in the pockets of Bush and Cheney ?

Well here we see that Russia, after having been fleeced to move their oil through the pipelines that RUSSIA built - being held hostage to the whims of the now-formed Ukraine to the tune of hundreds of billions - has clearly ok’ed NATO/US to blow up those pipelines but only if we send them the money that they were making.. even during the invasion.

And we are quite clear, and have been since before 2009, that the Bidens are heavy investors in it - using political influence to support their investments.

So the Ukraine allows the pipelines to be blown up, but since then just gets whatever money they ask for. And that money goes into the pockets of the Bidens.

Literally, hundreds of thousands of people are dying so that the Bidens get rich on oil.

Not even a stretch here. That’s what is happening. And I hope that the Ukrainians know this.

Speaking of his faux-military outfits - Zel wears a green coatume but he’s actaully a draft dodger.

He was fag-dancing in heels and playing naked guitar while someone else was doing his military duty.
