OK, first things first, you may have heard the news about how the Germans revealed their version of what the original Istanbul peace plan between Kiev and Moscow contained.
And it turns out that, yeah, Putin basically rolled over on his back like the bitch that he is and begged for mercy while pissing himself and crying. He also surrendered everything that we are now told by ZAnon that this war was all about preserving (Donbass, Crimea). Of course, the spin around this news is nothing short of whiplash-inducing. That is, despite the fact that the Germans revealed that Putin sold out back in April, we are being told that actually this paints Moscow in a good light.
Because it proves how moral and generous Putin and his Christian government was. No, really — that is the spin. They don’t even need to bring out fresh material when the classics work so well on the rubes, I guess.
I kid you not, I’ve been reading conservative Western bloggers and even Russian blogs gloating that Kiev turned down such a generous deal!
How foolish and hubristic those Nazi-Satanist-H*hols were!!
They should have taken Russia to the cleaners, *guffaw*!!!
…
Meanwhile, to those few of us who haven’t lost our mental faculties to emotional propaganda entirely, the real story is that for some reason MOSCOW DID IN FACT SURRENDER CRIMEA AND DONBASS TO KIEV ALL THE WAY BACK IN APRIL LIKE I CONSPIRICIZED THAT THEY DID ON THIS BLOG!
Thankfully, Russian patriotic samizdat isn’t as deranged as to ignore the obvious headline and spin it away as some sort of bizarre Kiev L. Because if Kiev turned down such treacherous generous terms back in April, that is because they realized that they had Putin on all fours ready to eat out of a bowl and woof on command. That is, they decided to pursue maximalist aims with this war because they realized how weak Moscow was!
This is the real story, and if you were reading my blog for the last year + , you would have been way ahead of the pack because this is EXACTLY what I concluded would be found in the secret peace deal when it was revealed.
Lukashenko Reveals Hidden Sell-Out Agenda Behind Secret Moscow-Kiev Talks
First things first, I am behind on the news and I realize that. I was busy doing that presser translation, which took awhile and had yet more bureaucratic paperwork in meatspace that needed doing. Secondly, I am 10 paid subs from my new/old goal. Some people have suggested that I paywall the comments, but keep the blog public for now. I think that’s a f…
Here is TopWar’s take:
The same « Istanbul document » was published in the German press, to the implementation of which in March 2022 Russia and Ukraine were close. The document, as you know, was initialed by delegations participating in the negotiations. Moreover, the text of the document caused, judging by the comments of German journalists, and readers, a really strong surprise, which suggests that in the West they simply hid the details of the negotiations between Kiev and Moscow.
Hard to maintain the narrative that Moscow is the enemy when the terms are so generous to Kiev, no?
In the document, which Vladimir Putin spoke about many times during his speeches, it was proposed to immediately stop hostilities in the fulfillment of several conditions by Ukraine. This is the consolidation by Ukraine of an extra-block neutral status, giving the Russian language the status of the second state language and the rejection of claims to Crimea, Sevastopol and « separate areas of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions (DPR and LPR) ». The implementation of the agreement also provided for the mutual waiver of sanctions and claims.
And there you have it.
But here comes the spin:
German readers, commenting on this data, write that that deal would help Ukraine maintain control over vast territories, including the left bank of the Dnieper in the Kherson and Zaporizhzhya regions, and save hundreds of thousands of lives. Today, and this is also emphasized by the very member of the Ukrainian delegation, whose name Die Welt does not name, the conditions for Kiev have radically changed « not for the better ».
Recall that earlier the head of the Ukrainian delegation, David Arahamia, bluntly stated that then British Prime Minister Boris Johnson convinced Ukraine not to fulfill the initial agreement with Moscow.
The conditions for Kiev have gotten worse?
How so??
Since April of the beginning of the SMO, they took back the regions around Kiev, Sumy, Kharkov, Kherson!
They have gotten progressively more and more money and expanded their military several times over!!
And the Americans have more than gotten their money’s worth!!!

Do you know how many Eastern Russians have been killed since the conflict began? According to a very detailed Mediazona report, which explains its methodology rather intensively, there are now probably around 85k KIA Eastern Russians (Russian soldiers). Here:
I was skeptical of the numbers at first because they seemed so low, actually. It seemed to me that we were easily on track to break through the 100K KIA number, but then Marko explained to me that the intensity of the fighting had dropped dramatically since Bakhmut and then Avdeevka. There are lull periods where both sides take a breather before throwing more meat into the grinder. The Mediazona people got their numbers by:
1. going to cemeteries to see how many of the names they find there they already have
2. trying to calculate excess male mortality under 50 from Rosstat data
3. getting data on the spike in inheritance procedures for males under 50
For what it’s worth, it is better than the non-data given to us by the Shoigu MoD.

Speaking of Marko, I think he might be blogging again. If you don’t know who he is, well, he was basically the original “Z-Doomer” in English media. He quit out of frustration because of the grief he was getting for not pretending that Russia was winning. His latest post since a year ago came out yesterday:
**
Also, I was surprised to learn that the practice of using convicts as meat-fodder is still in use by Russia. I thought that had ended with the taking of Bakhmut. But no, apparently not. And, apparently, debtors are being offered a kind of jubilee if they sign up to go fight as well. That’s from the recent NATO internal reports:
As an aside, I don’t know anyone in Russia my age who isn’t in debt and I’ve even foolishly lent money to “friends” before to help them out of a tight jam with the local FSB mobsters who they owed money to after their cafe tanked. Never lend money to friends, people. Never. If they ask you for financial help, it means that they actually secretly hate you and wish you ill. Simply don’t even reply to their messages if it gets to that point. This advice will save you far more than the money you owe me already if you haven’t signed up as a Stalker yet.
So go do that now.
Seriously.
Support the damn blog.
Don’t let the COMMANDER down!
He fights for you! For your FREEDOM!
…
But without the convicts and debtors, it seems that the enthusiasm for the two-week special military operation has tanked or that the people who initially volunteered are all spent by now because they’re having to offer more and more money to sign up to go over and fight. Moscow is fighting this war like an oligarchy would — by throwing money at the problem.
Kadyrov’s son is EATING the h*hols alive while you jack off at home, loser! Enlist now!
While Ukraine is fighting the war the way a nation-state would — by mobilizing the citizenry.
I think the Moscow approach is fairer, to be quite honest.
Peasants should be compensated in some way for dying in stupid oligarchic wars.
But the longer the Not-War goes on, the worse it gets for the Slavlands.
Anyone with a brain is forced to come to the same conclusion.
The strategy of a long war of attrition is wrong and unprofitable for Russia. Proponents of this strategy say Ukraine will exhaust its reserves and lose. There will be no one left to howl.
But that's not true. There will always be someone to howl. For the following reasons:
1) not all Ukrainian troops are on the frontlines. Kyiv still has large reserves in the rear. These reserves will be released if, for example, France commits its contingent. And this is a very real possibility.
2) the Kyiv regime still has mobilization potential and it is quite large. In addition to men, you can start calling women. They will also be called upon to plan what resources will be returned from Europe.
3) The West has been replenishing the UAF through its PMCs for a long time. And this is a limitless resource (if only there was money). We will have to fight not only until the last Ukrainian, but also until the last mercenary.
As for equipment and weapons, the West will provide as much as is needed, and this flow will never dry up.
How to make the West stop supporting the Kiev regime? There is only one solution. It is necessary that the Kiev regime cease to exist. Then there will be no power for anyone.
What is needed is not a war of attrition (whose?), but a decisive military victory and control over territories.
How are we still talking about the retarded “Attrition Anti-Nazi Antifa Multicultural Values Special Needs Operation” so many years in? When will the so-called attrition end? It smacks of the Vietnam era attrition nonsense propaganda. At least there, the Americans really were essentially almost genociding an entire country with chemicals and napalm so they could honestly say that they were “attritioning” the enemy. But we were being told by ZAnon in December of Year Zero that all the Ukrainian men were dead and the phrase “blood from a stone” was being tossed around by literally all the 5D dunces. When will all the blood drip out of the “stone” then?
Look: the only way that Russia wins this war is if they actually achieve military objectives in Ukraine just like in every other war that has been fought since time immemorial.
The bloggers telling you that just because this is a “special” war that the realities of war no longer apply are taking you for a ride and worse, they are covering up Putin’s failures so that he can keep mucking around for two more years and rack up the toll in spent lives and treasure before either losing everything or simply surrendering it eventually outright.
If there was more honestly and transparency about just how badly Shoigu and Gerasimov and Putin and all the crooks and spooks that Putin has gathered around him are losing this war, well, maybe just maybe something might improve for the better.
Me, personally, I don’t see anything getting better for Russia any time soon.
It is clear to me that the Putin project is a Western/Trotskyite/Zionist Occupation Government designed to make sure that no patriot gets anywhere close to power and reverses the de-Russification policies engineered by Putin and his predecessors.
Kiev is the same, of course, but at least they don’t make any effort to hide this.
I only bother to write about Russia because I entertain a faint hope that patriots will prevail in Moscow eventually or something like that eventually. I have ZERO hope for “Ukraine” as an independent, normal, Slavic country and gave up on that very early, frankly. This Special Needs Operation has given them a new national founding myth and allowed them to pogrom all sane people in the country while putting the worst scum in all the top positions of power with at least a significant chunk of the population supporting these changes out of fear of the Moscow invasion.
Best case scenario for Russia at this point is some kind of NK/SK or West/East Germany demarcation and DMZ zone. That is the Putin plan, anyway, at this point. Yes, it is horrible and unconscionable and such a total failure of all sane foreign policy that it beggars belief, but there we are, thanks to Putin’s great geopolitical genius.
But the more realistic scenario is that the West keeps pouring oil on this fire.
This will be followed by the West buying off the already pro-Western, non-Russian oligarchs around Putin and, most importantly, finally cracking the silovik state (spooks) that kill and imprison Putin and co’s enemies domestically. From there, it will be bedlam followed by the partition of Russia, probably.
Hell, I’d even put it at around a 20% probability at this point.
Who knows though … maybe Trump and his Zionist sponsors will win and the US will go to war with Iran instead. Both him and Putin are in bed with Chabad. They might arrange a deal to focus on Iran or Lebanon next instead and that would ease the pressure off of Russia some.
Let’s pray to Yahweh for that scenario.
…
THANK YOU FOR TUNING IN, SHADOW-PATRIOT!
Secret MK-ULTRA activation key phrase: GOON-GONZO.
This is COMMANDER RURIK signing off for now.
— end transmission.
What I appreciate so much about your blog is you tell a reality totally missing from the usual sources of information about the Ukraine war. I listen to the Duran regularly. It actually galls me the Duran membership is higher than yours, and truthfully, I'd consider you worth at least as much. Do you have some alternative avenues to getting contributions, such as "Buy me a coffee"?
Dealing with the substance of your information, it seemed the base objective of the SMO was to prevent another country bordering Russia from joining NATO. In that case, was the NATO membership of Sweden and Finland not at least as great a tragedy for Russia as Ukraine membership? The rationale seemed to be that a nuclear attack launched from Ukraine would give less warning than an attack from, say, Finland. But even since the 60's, the USSR had independent, submarine-launched nuclear missiles capable of obliterating much of the US. So, even a surprise attack from Ukraine would be suicidal for the NATO countries and the US in particular.
Finally, I'm quite certain the US ruling class is prepared to carry out a devastating war against the US as soon as they gain some breathing room. Or, actually, they have already begun the war in earnest. The Biden administration has issued rules saying commercial transport trucks have got to be all-electric by 2035 or so. Rules like this are obviously going to kill the US as a viable economic or cultural entity. I guess they've got to eliminate Russia and China as nationalist threats before finally pulling the plug on the US as a national entity.
Nice post. A couple things to note about Trump the Peaceful:
1. According to this memo on Politico back from February, the Ukraine supplemental includes a hidden impeachment clause against Trump if he tries to withdraw the U.S. from supporting the Ukraine war: https://www.politico.com/f/?id=0000018d-9dc3-d2c1-afdd-fff773190000 . I don't know if that clause was in the final bill that was passed (why wouldn't it be?) but Trump ate a big, humiliating loss regardless by backtracking on peace as the horrible bill passed as globohomo stooge McConnell gloated: https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/trump-held-his-tongue-on-ukraine-aid-mcconnell-says-it-may-have-made-the-difference/ar-AA1nEH8z
2. The unelected civil service in D.C. has burrowed in like a tic and made it essentially impossible for Trump to fire them, per here: https://theupheaval.substack.com/p/democracy-means-never-having-to-hear
Given these factors, if Trump is allowed to win in November it would both be likely to preside over something bad - a major economic crisis followed by introduction of CBDCs? Republicans won't complain too much because Trump is at the helm? - and with his hands tied...
