If Kursk blows, it irradiates most of Eurasia, and the rest falls into the Pacific Ocean -BFD.
In Proxy War news, yesterday the Washington Post ran a surprising story headlined, “Ukraine’s offensive derails secret efforts for partial cease-fire with Russia, officials say.” The sub-headline explained, “The warring countries were set to hold indirect talks in Qatar on an agreement to halt strikes on energy and power infrastructure, according to officials.”
Now they tell us. It was a ‘secret’ because media never reported it till now. Apparently, Ukraine and Russia were planning to meet, to discuss de-escalating their tit-for-tat energy strikes, which Russia is clearly winning, since the lights are still on in Moscow while most of Ukraine is sitting around in the dark.
As they say in Westeros, winter is coming. Astonishingly, WaPo admitted Ukraine is on the breaking point:
"We have one chance to get through this winter, and that's if
the Russians won't launch any new attacks on the grid," an
Ukrainian official who was briefed on the talks said.
The same official explained, “energy is definitely critical for us; we’re facing free fall if there’s no light and heat in the winter.”
Facing free fall. Not literally. He meant it’s lights out, comrades. Game over.
Why would Russia want to agree to stop its effective infrastructure attacks? WaPo didn’t say. Nevertheless, the parties had been optimistic about a potential deal. WaPo’s anonymous diplomat said, “Kyiv and Moscow had both signaled their readiness to accept the arrangement in the lead-up to the summit.”
But then Ukraine invaded Russia last week. Now Moscow says “nyet.”
The Ukrainians seem to have missiled themselves in the foot again. Their ‘daring invasion’ into a small rural district in western Russia isn’t likely to produce any benefit, and has scuttled the delicate ‘secret negotiations:’
Military analysts have expressed skepticism that Ukrainian
forces can maintain control of the Russian territory. Moscow
has also continued to make gains in eastern Ukraine's
Donetsk region and has not diverted troops from there to
defend the new Ukrainian assault.
If the Ukrainians had somehow managed to grab the Kursk Nuclear Power Plant ahead of these secret talks, they might have held a royal card to play. But they never even got close.
Ukraine will have to develop an education plan for children in the Kursk region, - Deputy Minister of Education
"If the situation continues until the end of September, we will have to draw up an education plan for minors in those territories," Vinnitsky said.
Better late than never in abandoning this lost cause ...

You do know the USSR disbanded last century, don't you?
Not expecting a cogent answer.
Yet they still act like paranoid and murderous buffoons needing walls and buffer border countries to protect them from the “evils” of the West.

We still don't know what Hunter was doing for Burisma. We do know the deep state was willing to impeach Trump for whatever it was.

"traffic cameras are still operating in Kursk, and people are receiving speeding fines when trying to outrun FPVs [first-person-view attack drones]. Some have resorted to covering their license plates but the traffic police force them to remove them."

We've had the socal2 bot for some time now.
When discussing the ongoing war in Ukraine, the prelate said it is essential to see the war from both parties’ perspectives and not simply divide it into the “good” and the “bad” sides.
“There is a history and aggressive politics from the United States and NATO, which provoked this war.”
“And they wanted it from the beginning,” he said.
“I have never seen such a promotion of war by politics in Europe,” Bishop Eleganti stated. “It’s really crazy.”
“And there are powerful people with [a lot of] money who have their own hidden agenda.”

I think this is to cover up how easy it was for the Russians to shoot it down, instead.
War of attrition. Russia has more bodies. They win.
Russia is about to roll up on what’s left of Ukraine. Our State Department neocon division thought it was wicked-smart to start a little action there in 2014, to provoke Russia into a ruinous war against NATO (the game: “Let’s You and Him Fight”) in order, theoretically, to wreck Russia and depose Mr. Putin. Didn’t work. Do you know why? I will tell you (it’s really simple): Russia’s leadership is more intelligent than ours, and far less psychopathic. They perceived correctly that we were only wrecking ourselves.
Ten years later, the Ukraine caper draws to a humiliating end for our neocons, and a ruinous end for NATO and the EU. So far this year, it appears that “Joe Biden’s” party has ceased paying attention to Ukraine. The pretty yellow and blue flags have all but disappeared — except in Massachusetts, we noticed, the most highly “educated” and most deeply insane state in the union. I’ll be interested in how Kamala Harris explains our Ukraine war policy in Tuesday’s presidential debate. Defending democracy, I suppose.
The governments of the major EU nations stupidly followed the bidding of America’s psychopathic neocons and now they ‘ll have to answer for it as their people awake to the destruction of the EU nations’ economies. Early elections will be called and globalist stooges will be swept away. The turmoil will rhyme with the chaos of 1848, a year of revolution. NATO, finding itself not just purposeless but toxic to Europe’s well-being, must dissolve as members on the periphery withdraw, some seeking to join the BRICs economic bloc. Germany, France, and the UK get sucked helplessly into a new great depression and social turmoil as they contend with many millions of hostile migrants.
Here in America, you can already hear the fake anguished cry of “Russia, Russia, Russia” echoing out of Merrick Garland’s fake Justice Department. We’re to understand that the Russians are coming for our election — more gaslight — when it’s actually the Democratic party, led surreptitiously by its lawfare cadres, Norm Eisen, Marc Elias, Andrew Weissmann, Mary McCord, Lisa Monaco, et al. Their many of their courtroom pranks have failed against Mr. Trump. Judge Chutkan was bloviating in the DC federal court this week to generate a little heat on MSNBC, but her case has a wooden stake through its heart and Xs where its eyes used to be.
One month of rampant lampshade-making out of Pukin's subjects in the 1200 sq km of Kursk lost to Nazis and all we hear from Pukin is "some bandits are running around there". 🤡
Are Nazis real or not? Are they dangerous or not? Wasn't the idea of Speshual
Military Opereyshun to protect Soviet citizens from the Nazis? Is it still going according to plan? How do you like my Cucker Tarlson impersonation?
The most astonishing metric of how bad things are getting for Ukraine was the fact that, after new conscripts get one glimpse of the front lines, assuming they live through it, they promptly head for the hills:
CNN spoke to six commanders and officers who are or were until recently fighting or
supervising units in the area. All six said desertion and insubordination are becoming a
widespread problem, especially among newly recruited soldiers.
"They go to the positions once and if they survive, they never return. They either leave their
positions, refuse to go into battle, or try to find a way to leave the army," he added.
Who can blame them? Desertion is now so common and so understandable that Ukraine decriminalized first-time desertion offenses, and officers don’t even report many desertions anyway...
