Have to realize that insane is a FEATURE. Predators want to destroy the world so they can thrive on the carnage.

Russia and China together is funny; China is not trustworthy and even Putin knows that much.
China can't piss off the west too much; Xi sees how Putin just wrecked the Russia economy and he's not going to volunteer to ruin China.
China is buying gas from Russia at 50% discount; that looks like it favors China 🇨🇳.

Same reason China will never grovel before WEF, they don't trust the Opium War Roundeyes and will never depend fully on the West, esp. for Raw Materials, ever again.

They'll continue to play Russia against the West while paying off American Politicians and making American Corporations utterly dependent on their manufacturing.

China is delaying it to attract as much business as possible, but China has a massively underdeveloped consumer base.

Excellent documentary providing valuable information as to how the war propagandists operate in selling war to the gullible American public. In this case, the war to be sold is the war against Iraq & Afghanistan, along with the extending the never ending war policy of the U. S. Government.

When the USSR fell apart, China didn't take advantage of the situation, they didn't kick them when they were down, however the United States sent in a bunch of carpetbaggers to loot the nation for a decade. Putin ended that which is why he became an enemy of the United States.

China works almost entirely in it's own interests, and so does Russia. It's not in China's best interest to be in conflict with their neighbor, and that's true for Russia as well.

It isn't in the interests of the EU or the United States to be enemies with Russia either, but the US is run by lunatics perhaps purposely undermining this country, and the EU is run by quislings probably controlled by the US intelligence agencies. Whoever really runs the EU/US, they are one in the same or they are tightly linked, and they don't work on behalf of the nations they control.

There is a demon for each jurisdiction. They manipulate their victims and minions to do their bidding. Putin doesn’t run Russia even if he thinks he does. He is in power only by the grace of God, and he same goes for any leader. But just because God allows them to have power doesn’t mean that they do His will.

Chinese government is corrupt. Russian government is corrupt. The E.U. is corrupt. The USA is corrupt. Israeli government is corrupt. No government that serves the people can last because it always becomes corrupted by those who seek their own interests.

increasing entropy of corruption gradually lowers quality of life and reduces freedoms leading to an Orwellian state or total collapse and fragmentation of the original country or state

The collapse of the USA will be the most tragic of all. It truly once was a shinning city on the hill. A place where most of the world strived to emigrate to or emulate. A place where freedom of religion, freedom of conscience, free speech, representative government and Constitutionally protected and Providencially established rights of every man woman and child were codified and defended by oath and actions of every civil servant.

I generally like Steve Bannon; but a guy with that much money can't 1. get a haircut 2. get a chef 3. get a gym membership and a pair of sneakers?

WWIII is on and the West is winning it.

Even Putin knows the negative consequences of nuking someplace.

Tactical-small battlefield nuke; means the place just nuked is dangerous to Russians and they now cannot enter the area either or the wind will blow shit onto them and they die also.

Strategic-large nukes for cities; means that the West will retaliate and wipe out Russia.

Some idiots in Moscow are saying "Nuke London!" in revenge for the UK sending arms to Ukraine; how fucking stupid are they?

The presumed (bullshit pretext) reason for wanting Ukraine in the first place was to create a larger buffer against the West; but the invasion of Ukraine had the exact opposite intended effect.

What if Putin is just a globalist puppet and we are living in a version of 1984? After all, oceana has always been at war with eastasia, right Winston?

Peace is not part of the plan for the New World Order ...

Biden, NATO Attack China’s Ukraine War Peace Proposals

Why is Ukraine so important to the national interests of the USA?

Treasury Secretary Yellen: ‘Our Support for Ukraine Will Be Lasting and Is Unconditional’

Why is Ukraine so important to the national interests of the USA?

It has nothing to do with Ukraine. I don't like Biden. This is THE definition of a proxy war with Russia. They can't nuke us because we don't have boot's on the ground in Ukraine. If they do NATO allies lob nukes. Russia is in a shit spot they could have handled diplomatically. They wanted a swath of land that if they were a major power they could have just bought it. They're not a major power.

I also give no shits about Ukraine. If you're not of Eastern European descent or haven't interacted with them you have no business in the discussion about any of this. They're not rational people. Either nation or the region. I am one just Americanized. I'm one generation removed from float on the boat eastern Euro. My grandparents. My parents business a bit back catered to Eastern Euros. I worked for them. I dealt with them. Contradictory or self deprecating, but they're fucking idiots.

The US is involved, but this shit would have happened either way. Anyone that says otherwise should get a lobotomy. Russia was and will try to move westward, always. Their land is shit. Apparently no one has been to Canada. It's the mirror image of what Russia is. Cold and shitty. No one generally live below a certain latitude. Russia is worse than Canada, they just have oil and gas up there that is likely to go off line soon.

Russia AND Ukraine are fucked. Who cares? We don't have dead Americans for once. Both countries will fail. The outcome of both countries failing should be the conversation, not who is "winning." There are no sides to pick.

I'm slightly amazed at the comments here.
Ukraine did all it could diplomatically to avoid being invaded by Putin. Ukraine gave up weapons in exchange for assurances but of course when dealing with an asshole, you can't expect the other party to comply with something he agreed to.
Ukraine saw the other former soviet countries which Putin either invaded or took over installing a puppet (e.g. Belarus).
It was inevitable that mistrust of Putin's sincerity would lead Ukraine to seek more European ties; it sure doesn't want anything to do with Russia.
The guys Putin is sending to the Ukraine dying fields are not from Moscow; they're from Russian Federation places like Kazakhstan.
Putin can use the war to decrease the population of people who don't like him.

Europeans are always trying to move eastward,to take that delicious gas, oil, and metals. "The poor Russians need our Leadership!"

What Ukraine failed to do was stop shelling the ethnic Russian civilians in the Donbass. They did that for many years and are still doing it.

Biden’s Insane Foreign Policy Actions Drove China and Russia Together – Now the World Is Facing WWIII

https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2023/02/bidens-insane-foreign-policy-actions-drove-china-and-russia-together-now-world-is-facing-wwiii/

Are you high? Do you really think China wants to see Russia defeated? China doesn't know they're next? Russia and China both know that neither one of them can fall to the US. If they did, the whole world becomes a vassal to the US. If this were to happen, it would be No Bueno for ANYONE worldwide.

I've been concerned that the Ukraine/Russian conflict might lead us into WW III. If that happens, at least we can all be assured that all those $Billions going over there was well spent and that there is zero corruption.

I'm ashamed to have suspected that a lot of that money was going into off shore accounts for the crooks in Ukraine, kick backs to U. S. politicians and corporations.

BIDEN OFFICIAL CLEARS Ukraine of Misusing U.S. Financial Aid (That makes it official ... wink, wink)
https://www.breitbart.com/politics/2023/02/24/biden-official-clears-ukraine-of-misusing-u-s-financial-aid/

Ukraine is not misusing the tens of billions of dollars in direct financial assistance it is receiving courtesy of U.S. taxpayers according to a top Biden administration official.

Samantha Power, the administrator of the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), gave the public affirmation during a CNN live town hall on Thursday evening.

Her assurances came just hours ahead of the White House revealing it would give another $2 billion in military aid to Ukraine as its war with Russia officially hits the one-year mark, bringing the total amount of American military assistance to over $30 billion in one year.

The U.S. has given more than $100 billion in military and humanitarian aid to Ukraine since the start of the war one year ago even as doubts have been expressed over the potential for corruption.

Well, the so called aid IS packaged as Babylonian debt to enslave Ukrainian productivity for decades to come. Not to mention the Ukrainians are still laundering proxies for selling old and potentially non-functional warehouse USA armaments on the black market and sharing the bounty with American politicians.

One always needs to look on the bright side of the cloud.

WookieMan says

Russia is in a shit spot they could have handled diplomatically.

They spent 8 years working with the West to implement the Minsk Accords and negotiating for Ukraine to return to neutrality

What you just said is like "well, if Saddam Hussein just disclosed his weapons of mass destruction program".

You cannot negotiate with Neocons. Their objective is ALWAYS war.

Biden isn't in control of anything. He reads teleprompters and makes appearances for media. The rest of the world knows this and nobody is fooled.

Victoria Nuland is more the president than Joe Biden is.

RayAmerica says

‘Brings Us Closer to an All-Out War’ (i.e., World War III) with Russia, China

Unfortunately, WWIII is a long planned policy of the Shadow Government and neocons, not a feature of Biden Actor Stable's fake senility, that's the usual distraction.

richwicks says

Yeah, Susan Rice also is co-President.

Nuland had her fingerprints all of Ukraine back in 2013 and even got called out by Merkel for meddling into Ukraine.

Nuland was a senior political player within the Bush Jr admin. Read about how she controlled it, and was an adviser to Cheney before Bush Jr nominated her for NATO ambassador.

Nuland's husband is a neo-conservative RINO, and I heard on radio he's trying to get back into good graces of Republican Party. This tells me he's going to try to be a policy advisor to someone like DaSantis or Haley. I know he left Republicans after Trump won.

You are not wrong. But politically speaking, everyone who is not Biden, should be blaming him for this war. If Biden would stop funding and promoting it we might make strides toward peace. Politically we need to make Biden and the Democrats own all the death and destruction they are endorsing and funding in Ukraine.

In Explosive New Interview, Sy Hersh Details His Allegations of the Nord Stream 2 Sabotage (VIDEO)

From the article:

Hersh then tackled his recent reporting by discussing Germany. The people there made it through this winter with natural gas prices at 3-4 times their regular prices but next year is going to be a disaster.

The people of Germany and of Europe are not jumping on the war with Russia train and don’t care so much about Ukraine because it’s one of the most corrupt countries in the world is what Biden was being told.

The choice for Europe was either to keep supporting the war or keep receiving the natural gas and keep warm and make money.

They Do Not Want Peace, And So You Need To Prepare For A Horrific Global War

https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/they-do-not-want-peace-and-so-you-need-prepare-horrific-global-war

... our leaders made it abundantly clear that they aren’t even interested in considering China’s peace plan…

US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, speaking on CNN, brushed off the Chinese proposal, saying it should have ended after the first bullet point, which calls for “respecting the sovereignty of all countries.”

“This war could end tomorrow, if Russia stopped attacking Ukraine and withdrew its forces,” he said.

Asked about the proposal, NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said, “China doesn’t have much credibility” in light of its failure to condemn Putin’s war.

NOTE: did the USA 'respect the sovereignty of all' the countries in which the CIA conducted coup d'etats countless times, including the nation in question, UKRAINE in 2014?

Patrick says

What Ukraine failed to do was stop shelling the ethnic Russian civilians in the Donbass. They did that for many years and are still doing it.

Now Russia has pretty much leveled much of the Donbass in their total cockup of this war getting hundreds of thousands of people killed. I guess that is Putin's way of protecting all those pro-Russian civilians? They have to "destroy the village to save it"?

Are there still pro-Russian people for Putin to "save" in Ukraine? If so, save them from what? And is that "what" so serious and important to kill hundreds of thousands of human beings and risk WWIII?

Russia had a small window to get this done and they failed miserably. Not only have they failed beyond miserably on this initial conventional stage of shock and awe, they haven't even gotten to the insurgency stage yet. How does Russia hang onto portions of Ukraine without decades of massive unrest keeping this a festering sore?

The war, death, destruction and global instability ends today if Putin orders Russian troops to return home. Everything short of the Russian invaders returning home and recognizing existing borders is prolonging death and creating greater risk to the world.

Since Ivan the Terrible Russia annexed neighboring countries because there is no geographic barrier to invaders reaching Moscow.
This is the rationale given by Putin apologists; he's just protecting Russia from another invasion.
But this was a pretext for Putin, since Europe had no desire to invade and were Russia's biggest cash cows.
Putin has a warm water port in Syria now so he doesn't need to freak out over leaving the Crimea peninsula.
As Trump often said, imagine if the trillions of dollars spent on wars had been spent in the USA instead.
I'm annoyed that Putin and the CCP are going to keep our military budgets high indefinitely.

Brief history:

During the collapse of the Soviet Union, then President George H. W. Bush and Secretary of State James Baker both PROMISED Soviet Premiere Mikhail Gorbachev that NATO would not expand 'one inch' beyond its current membership. That promise was broken repeatedly by NATO's ever expanding sphere of nations and strategic placement of weapons ... all aimed at Russia.

In 2013, Victoria Nuland of the State Department, and, Sen. John McCain, both strongly advocated the overthrow of the duly elected, pro-Russian Government in Ukraine. McCain went so far as to travel to Ukraine whereby he promised "US support" for their 'revolution,' which did take place in 2014. Russia felt
threatened and hostilities between Ukraine and Russia went to a new level, culminating in Russia's military invasion last year.

Question: due to the Monroe Doctrine, JFK stood firm against the installation of nuclear missiles being placed in Cuba some 90 miles away from our shore. The conflict was so serious it came close to an all out war with the then USSR. How is this any different for Russia, with their country being surrounded by hostile member nations of NATO and now Ukraine?

Is Ukraine worth risking World War III???

Russia's puppet was thrown out of Ukraine; this pissed off Putin but is not agression towards Russia.
To dictators, like Putin and Xi, any neighbor who has a freer form of goverment is seen as a threat.
Taiwan would never invade China, but the CCP doesn't like an example of freedom so nearby that Chinese people see what they are missing.
Putin rolled the dice and lost; the weak, ineffectual West he was expecting decided to start sending weapons to Ukraine.
When Israel was invaded by its neighbors using Soviet weapons, it defeated them with its own and Western weapons; this enraged the Saudis so much they had an oil embargo in 1973.
Today, it's happening again; Russian military equipment and tactics are inferior.

It is when the Ukraine constitution was amended in 2014 as well to allow Ukraine to join NATO. Putin then took Crimea to prevent seeing a NATO naval base at Sevastopol.
