Even if Russia signs a humiliating peace treaty the 5 d wizards will say that Russia humiliated itself to save the world from nuclear war, or they will say that Russia never intended to win militarily but economically, or that Russia plays a long game which will become obvious in 200 years.
When Mao was asked if the French Revolution had succeeded, he replied "Ask me in 200 years". So the 5D guys have pretty good revolutionary credentials to fall back on right there!
Psychologically, a 5D explanation is imperative to justify or rationalize the needless slaughter of hundreds of thousands of young Ukrainian and Russians. Even the most cynical would find so many bodies blown into tiny unidentifiable bits as horrific for purely financial gain.
That being said, Sy Hersh released an interesting article this morning inferring that the financial predators are eager to get onto the next phase of the "planned plunder."
"Something else is cooking, as some in the American intelligence community know and have reported in secret, at the instigation of government officials at various levels in Poland, Hungary, Lithuania, Estonia, Czechoslovakia, and Latvia. These countries are all allies of Ukraine and declared enemies of Vladimir Putin.
This group is led by Poland, whose leadership no longer fears the Russian army because its performance in Ukraine has left the glow of its success at Stalingrad during the Second World War in tatters. It has been quietly urging Zelensky to find a way to end the war—even by resigning himself, if necessary—and to allow the process of rebuilding his nation to get under way..."
So it seems, this fits in nicely with the notion that there's a multitude of economic predators such as BlackRock and the usual bankster gangsters as well as multinational corporations eager to rebuild Ukraine into a "shiny 15 minute city" encompassing many freshly digitized hills. Ukraine, wll be a model of what the Great Reset offers billionaie techno/fascists.
A paradigm for all humanity, an example of what can be done with a bit of grit, determination, and pyschopathy.
That quote from Seymour's at the first glance does not make sense. If we disregard a silly part about Hungary being an enemy of Russia (actually one of the very few European countries that remain neutral), neither chihuahua Eastern E. countries nor Ukraine (fully bankrolled by USA for months) have any say in ending the conflict, so their discussion has zero value. It's like kids discussing what mom is cooking for dinner - tough, they're going to eat whatever is put on the table.
But releasing info about "secret" talks about peace involving multiple countries could hopefully be a preparatory stage for eventual peace.
Yep, a lot of Hersh's stuff seems like mutterings from a "mysterious source" somewhere inside the security state. Like I said, it appears that the asset management firms and all the other predators want to start picking the bones from another part of the Ukraine caucus.
This is a fine comedy unravelling here, what do we have? We have the overwhelming mass corporate global(ist)media – that dominates not only narratives in the west but throughout the world, even in Russia, even now to a certain extent - & this narrative says what? Russia committed a war of aggression against Ukraine. But it backfired. Russia is losing the war, badly, evidence of this is Kharkov, Kherson, some lesser set backs like Ugledar, & the fact that Russia has failed to advance during that time. Also Russia has lost a lot of its soldiery. Ukraine is about to launch a major counter offensive & is going to defeat Russia, probably decisively, leading to Russia’s eventual capitulation & surrender. Then Russia will be dismantled (see destroyed) as a state & will no longer exist to trouble anybody. That is the dominant narrative in the world. And then you have this blog, & its narrative is what? More or less what you just read, it mirrors the western narrative practically to the letter. But the author of this blog takes exception to being labelled a NATO/CIA shill. He takes exception to the fact that his take on events matches the narrative of the same west/NATO/CIA/MI6 that he is adamant he is not shilling for. But, despite finding himself in harmony with dominant narrative in the world, he is not satisfied, & so we have something called the “5D judo chess” bloggers/commentators. And they, don’t you know, are just a huge problem. They are a problem because they get a certain amount of attention, views, whatever, & apparently make good solid dough. Yep, they don’t enjoy sharing the dominant narrative in the world, but they do make some nice dough. Our man wants some dough. It is not enough to be in harmony with the dominant narrative in the world on this, what is it, “not a war”, when you got no fucking dough. Or not enough. Incidentally, this narrative tells you that when Ukraine advances into Kharkov or Kherson, that means they are winning the war. When Russia advances in say, Bahkmut, well, you know, that’s “Wagner”. Like Syria. Not VKS or SAA at all, it was “Wagner”. It is all quite amusing. Somewhat childish, but amusing nonetheless. I’m laughing my head off. But I have to stop, I’m leaving this behind for a month & heading into the mountains of western Serbia where I am going to clear my property, cut wood, build a couple of stone retaining walls, get my bloody chainsaw fixed, do some man’s work, & switch off. No internet. No TV. Just radio, truly terrible Serbian radio, but it’ll keep me minimally informed. When I return end June I wonder what will be the outcome of the much vaunted counter offensive? And if it doesn’t turn out the way it was predicted here, will Mr. Rolo have the humility to admit mistake? Something tells me no, its more likely that paywall manoeuvre will come into effect so as to avoid the prospect of embarrassing questions. I guess I will prepare myself for some good humour when I return, it is a dark world out there, & laughter is therapeutic.
De Sitter Space is a 5 Dimensional mathematical space that was employed by theoretical astrophysicists early in the 20th century for purposes of modeling what they supposed to be the 4 Dimensional spacetime manifold which was a backdrop for the General Relativistic theory of gravitation. One of many models. Working in 5 Dimensions provided a way to look at the so-called real 4D by means of projection, to oversimplify a bit. One day the man who occupied Isaac Newton's old chair as first Lucasian Professor of Mathematiics - Paul Andre Maurice Dirac OBE, FRS and Nobel Laureate in physics due to his prediction of the existence of antimatter was walking down a street in Cambridge while accompanied by young Abdus Salaam , then a very promising young postgraduate student who went on to great things himself later. Turning to the young fellow, Professor Dirac asked "tell me, when you want to increase your understanding of the DeSitter Universe, what do you do?" Stunned, but honored by the great man's inquiry, young Abdus Salaam said after a brief time "well I suppose I write down the field equations in 5Dimensional form, look for coordinates which simplify, and then examine the algebraic symmetries which do or do not exist within the expressions for the components of the metric tensor. And I would proceed from there according to what I could discover." "Precisely as I suspected a talented theorist from the Indian subcontinent would do," said Professor Dirac. "While I on the other hand simply visualize perfectly everything about DeSitter space, and walk through it investigating, just as easily as I now walk dou this street with you now."
I should add two things. Professor Dirac was a very great walker, walking 7 miles every day. There was a saying at Cambridge which went like this: There is no God, and Dirac is his prophet.
Thanks. Good idea. I didn't want to overly occupy Rolo's space. I might have added that Dirac was very good friends with some of the very top Ru atom physicists and was very sympathetic to socialism and more antinazi than just about anyone. His dearest friend was his biographer, the physicist Abraham Pais who wrote a brilliant scientific biography of Einstein too.
Off-topic, but I wear a t-shirt to the gym with Dirac's equation on it. It's a great conversation starter. Here's another bit of trivia: Cary Grant went to the same Secondary School as Dirac.
Cool. I'm looking for connection between why Dirac spells Car ID, now you've provided it. Cary Grant spells Tran G.Y. Car . I so wanted Dirac to spell Dr Car, but no luck. No i. We could try i c dar, (daughters of the American revolution) but I don't think so. Now for my experiment: do you pick up more chicks with cool t-shirts, or silly anagrams? My success rate with both is very low.
I've never had much skill regarding picking up chicks. I used to think that a sense of humor and cleanliness might help, but I think it's mostly about how tall you are, how handsome you are, and how much money you have. My t-shirt that says JULIAN ASSANGE POLITICAL PRISONER also gets lots of smiles and several brief encounters with both men and women. But I always go home alone, content to be a community character.
As a psychiatrist I once knew said to me: Even the chairman of Goldman Sachs puts his pants on one leg at a time. I replied: Very funny! Now what were you telling me about dating older women.
She was an older lady herself and confided in me that 75% of her clientele were older women absolutely desperate to meet men.
I once asked her if there were still patients like the ones Freud described who could only achieve satisfaction if a shoe dangled over their heads during the act. She said: absolutely. I said maybe I had a spare shoe lying around and I'd get back to her after I checked. What happened after that I can't seem to recall.
On my part, I might have added that the difference between the takes of Master and his apprentice you reported, this viewpoint difference maps neatly onto the right–left brain divide 🙂
The iconography of the scripts used for the languages in Pak & India is very intricate and impresses me, who doesn't really know, as requiring or selecting for a very formal wrote learning style much as the Japanese send their kids early every morning just to learn kanji, similarly with Chinese ideograms. Dirac was 1st generation British, he came from French speaking Swiss stock possibly. The Asian scripts greatly disadvantaged their naval use of semaphores compared to the US and Brits who were their forebears.
While it would be silly to imagine Russia as another Tibet, with Orthodox Christians living pious and peaceful lives under a benevolent government, it is equally wrong to imagine that the USA is not promoting perversion and corruption. I, for one, see the struggle in Ukraine as a battle between good and evil. Once Russia has accomplished its goals, NATO and the USA will begin a never ending war of attrition - just as the "Palestinians" have against Israel.
Okay. I will subscribe as soon as my social security check comes in a week. I promise. Im 75 and retired. For real. But I am getting the feeling this is fishy and there's more to this. The only possiblilty left is Russia knows a full bore war is coming and they're holding everything in reserve/ By "full bore", I mean no more fake "proxy war" but an invasion by NATO-stan of Ukraine and an attempted invasion of Russia. The US gov't is already at war against its own population, something that cannot be corrected by electoral "politics". The minimal "peace" Russia can hope for is the total destruction of the Kiev regime, leaving a rump Ukraine to be occupied by Poland. The US Neocons, working for the globalists, want a complete destruction of all sovereign states; Russia and US and China. All.
Look, do not take this wrong, ok? I will use some harsh language here.
All YOU good meaning people in the west are fighting a proxy war by the hands and BLOOD of of Russia/kraina against your own parasites, instead of actually doing something meaningful.
I wish you got off your ass and keyboards and got busy.
I understand, some of you have some constitutionally enshrined freedoms ranging from the "freedom of speech" and actual tools to enforce those God given rights...
Use them! That is what they were intended for.
Do not hope for Russia to do the work required - it is Your job.
words written on old papers mean nothing if they aren't enforced, and the entire government is set upon silencing you and people like you (you=the poster you're responding to).
our police have been fully militarized and knock out the eyes of people protesting for health care and environmental protection. they toss grannies to the ground.
so what you're asking is people here going to war against the gov't, and that isn't likely to happen soon no matter how many guns the paranoid run to buy for the Ultimate Game Day they envision but hope never comes.
you're right to chastise, but you should bar any hope of this for being misplaced. we have chicken nuggets to eat and they're getting cold.
I know only a few deluded 5D writers. None of them matters. Escobar, Lira (gone), Moon of Alabama, Unz, Saker (gone), The Duran, plus Ritter and MacGregor. Who else? It has been obvious for 12 months that they have no clue. Rolo has been more realistic but I think he has an ego problem and a money problem.
Quote: "None of them matters" "It has been obvious for 12 months that they have no clue"
Agree 100%. I do not know why is Rolo concentrating on them on a regular basis! And not only that - he now actually expects/wants them to repent too!
Could it be that he's running out of topics as he, close to 100%, sees-no-Putin speaks-no-Putin hears-no-Putin thus making himself with pretty much nothing to talk about while waiting for Strelkov/Prigozhin to do/say something? It is tough to blog about winter without mentioning snow and low temps.
I do not think that Rolo has an ego problem though - he may have an FSB problem, and we do not want him to get hurt or not allowed into Russia for the next 200 years.
wait wait not Unz, he just aggregates articles from delusional people like Pepe or Mike Whitney. Now the Zman instead, he is shilling quite hard the naive chad-Russia story.
nah, Unz wrote several articles on Ukraine and he is a true believer in MacGregor and Ritter. Sure he isn't an opinion leader himself but he's an alt media publisher.
Forget it. His pieces on Ukraine were terrible, he simply followed Ritter and MacGregor, who are in denial. During the virus op, he favored lockdowns and touted the vaccines, which for many younger people wasn't a good choice.
I believe you. I just wish you'd provide a link in the future. If you don't I have to google simplcus (I always misspell the name) + substack and it wastes time and i can't be sure that it is what was being referenced.
It is simple etiquette to provide links when referencing something or asking for comment and not assume that someone has read it, and then refuse to do so when asked again lol what even is this.
but then you've always been a rude and surly poster.
I thought posting content from other bloggers or even links is general is bad etiquette, akin to spamming. How many times do people in forums really open links posted by others? Me very seldom. I think on Edward Slavsquat's, he frowns upon links posted inside comments if it's not an open thread type of post.
For the rest, I take offense at your remarks on the perceived failings in my character you list. Especially the 'rude' part, I just tell it how it is. In the past I have even complimented you on your writing and encouraged you to stick to it.
Quote: "but then you've always been a rude and surly poster"
So, why not just ban him? Isn't providing outright lies hurting your reputation? I did not try to find this non-exiting article, but some probably have, wasting their time in the process. I do not understand why you allow this to go on.
I remember you banning someone recently for what it seemed a much smaller infraction - what's this liar's appeal to you?
Regardless of who's winning at the moment, I do support Peace Treaties at all levels.
Simplicius and the other 5D'ers do seem to be on a roll the last few days. In Bhakmut, Wagner is mopping up the city center, while the flanks are holding steady after early fallbacks. The destruction of the ammunition depot in Khmelnitsky and the defeat of the Patriot missile system in Kiev are significant victories for the Russians.
Rolo himself exposed that Prigozhin works for Sergei Kiriyenko, a "legacy ethnic Bolshevik"; and as such, there's no reason to rely on Prigozhin for accurate frontline reports, or even for genuinely cunning maskirovka. And furthermore, that there's no particular reason to think that Putin has made much progress in overcoming the influence of the ethnic Neocon holdovers from the Yeltsin era.
Rolo: "I certainly side with Russia as opposed to the collective West..." but surely, in fact, there is no good reason for Russians and "Westerners" to be murdering each other. The conflict is being whipped up by wealthy elites on both sides, who are traitors to their own people.
As far as siding with Russia, I can at least agree with the view that the Russian government and Russian press are generally more honest than the "Westerners", and that the West was primarily responsible for fomenting the beginnings of this war. But that doesn't mean that I would advocate for the Russians and Chinese to nuke Washington and London, and invade the west coast of the USA. That would be an unmitigated disaster for the West and for me personally, even though our rulers seem to be begging for that outcome.
Rolo has been very crafty and cagey in riding this - for the most part - artificial controversy between "5D chessmasters" and "doomers" that has been stoked up lately.
I wouldn't go so far as to say it's an artificial controversy. It would be very bad, not just for Russia but for the entire world, if Rolo's doomsday scenario comes to pass and Russia is carved up into warlord fiefdoms, competing to prostrate themselves to Western neocons. And almost equally bad, if Russia humiliates the combined NATO forces.
I'm hoping that Rolo and the 5D'ers are both wrong, and we're looking at a stalemate on the battlefield, and an honorable peace treaty that lets Russia keep Crimea and the Donbass.
According to Antony Sutton et al the USSR was molly coddled by western financiers from the start. It didn't suit for it to develop into a market driven consumer economy as the real game was to keep Russia underdeveloped and its resources available to the west.
I find this to be a strong predictive model.
So if it holds I would expect Russia to be maintained as the bete noir to justify NATO's continued existence and the massive feeding trough it provides. - as well as the spook agencies so they can play Spy vs Spy and surveil everybody to make sure they are not sleeping with the enemy and not having any wrongthink.
Russia has to be a taught a lesson to show how righteous and noble the West is. Hence there will be Versailles like peace conditions which I think includes the return of Crimea! I suspect that is what made Putin wobbly with Erdogan holding him up.
Do you really believe the Ukrainians will tell the whole world their' offensive' wont be a succes?
wake up man, there is still such a thing is maskarova in war. The same maskarova was used in the Ukrainian Kherson offensive, tying down and sending russian reinforcements towards Kherson, then the Ukrainians quietly transferred forces to the kharkov region and launched the suprise counter offensive near balaklaia/izyum/kupiansk area, overrunning and blitzkrieging their way to thinly spread and held russian lines. I am not saying there is no back dealing going on, as we can see by the prison swaps the russian and ukrainian side are clearly in contact and talking with each other. I dont need to read some populair blog to find that out.
Rolo, have you thought about writing some articles about Luka and how he's been keeping Belarus not occupied/colonized by the West for close to 30 years, unlike you-know-who-Putin-that's-who that keeps Russia down, robbed, looted, occupied, insulted, humiliated, not-respected, not-trusted, loser in Ukraine and everywhere else, etc. - the list is endless.
Think about it.
P.S. BTW, Please tell Nikola Mikovic, when you see him, to stop calling Luka a "dictator" as that is how NATO calls true leaders that are not their puppets. Their puppets are called "partners". Thanks.
Even if Russia signs a humiliating peace treaty the 5 d wizards will say that Russia humiliated itself to save the world from nuclear war, or they will say that Russia never intended to win militarily but economically, or that Russia plays a long game which will become obvious in 200 years.
"the goal was never to hold Crimea and Donetsk, it was to make Ukraine and the EU poorer and mission accomplished"
When Mao was asked if the French Revolution had succeeded, he replied "Ask me in 200 years". So the 5D guys have pretty good revolutionary credentials to fall back on right there!
I suppose Rússia will sign a humiliating, something like the Versailles treaty of WWI, but even that won't stop the West from trying to finish Russia
If not for sure sleepless nights, you seem pretty well-equipped to get hold of a hearty cut from 5D moolah stash 😉
Worse, the 5 Dyers will proclaim that's all our fault, specially if afterwards Putin is toppled.
The sub grubbing cracks me up

A limited war, as the psycho billionaires want to remain alive and kicking.
Yep, the metaverse.
And in this current "war of attrition" all those who'd be brave enough to fight back are being slaughtered; interesting that.😒

This is a fine comedy unravelling here, what do we have?

You may not believe, but I would love you were right and I was wrong.
I understand what you are saying, and you have a point.
But, in your opinion, what should Russia do?
- Fire all the traitors, for example in the MoD, and then they automatically will be replaced by knowledgeable/experienced patriots?
- Level Ukraine to the ground. Then what? The real enemy is still alive and kicking and finding new ways to subvert Russia.
- Level to whole West/NATO?
I'm serious, I really would like to know. When would Russia declare "mission accomplished" in YOUR (not 5D) opinion? After accomplishing what?
fire all of the nukes and hope for the best.
Better hope for the best and then fire all of the nukes...
This is what Rolo and many others don't seem to understand. There is no magic. Russia is not in a strong position. Nukes aren't solving anything.

our police have been fully militarized and knock out the eyes of people protesting for health care and environmental protection. they toss grannies to the ground.
so what you're asking is people here going to war against the gov't, and that isn't likely to happen soon no matter how many guns the paranoid run to buy for the Ultimate Game Day they envision but hope never comes.
you're right to chastise, but you should bar any hope of this for being misplaced. we have chicken nuggets to eat and they're getting cold.
I know only a few deluded 5D writers. None of them matters. Escobar, Lira (gone), Moon of Alabama, Unz, Saker (gone), The Duran, plus Ritter and MacGregor. Who else? It has been obvious for 12 months that they have no clue. Rolo has been more realistic but I think he has an ego problem and a money problem.

Agree 100%. I do not know why is Rolo concentrating on them on a regular basis! And not only that - he now actually expects/wants them to repent too!
Could it be that he's running out of topics as he, close to 100%, sees-no-Putin speaks-no-Putin hears-no-Putin thus making himself with pretty much nothing to talk about while waiting for Strelkov/Prigozhin to do/say something? It is tough to blog about winter without mentioning snow and low temps.
I do not think that Rolo has an ego problem though - he may have an FSB problem, and we do not want him to get hurt or not allowed into Russia for the next 200 years.
wait wait not Unz, he just aggregates articles from delusional people like Pepe or Mike Whitney. Now the Zman instead, he is shilling quite hard the naive chad-Russia story.
nah, Unz wrote several articles on Ukraine and he is a true believer in MacGregor and Ritter. Sure he isn't an opinion leader himself but he's an alt media publisher.
He is usual a very careful investigator who cares most about factual evidence.
This piece on Oryx and the inflated numbers of casualties and losses of equipment, especially on the Russian side, it publishes is a typical example of his approach, applied to this war https://www.unz.com/runz/war-and-propaganda-in-the-russia-ukraine-conflict/
Also his latest article on the history of political assassination in the last 3 hundred years is quite eye-opening, best read of the week for me https://www.unz.com/runz/assassinating-vladimir-putin/
He is quite good not just as publisher but also as a writer of well researched essays
Forget it. His pieces on Ukraine were terrible, he simply followed Ritter and MacGregor, who are in denial. During the virus op, he favored lockdowns and touted the vaccines, which for many younger people wasn't a good choice.
Yay for paid subscribers!!
Mark Bisone over at The Cat Was Never Found has a “buy me a coffee” button at the bottom of his posts. Why not add one too?
I don't drink coffee!
Ok well call your button “buy me tobacco for my hookah” then.
no, sorry, won't work. but thanks anyways!
Magnanimous gesture by Rolo.
I believe Pepe already signed the Peace Treaty.
We on the "doom side" are really sick of being attacked, denounced almost lynched by the believers of the 5Dyers.
Simplicius in his new piece evidently demonstrates the Ukrainian side itself does not believe in a definitive success of the upcoming offensive.
Now there you come trying to reconcile with the triumphant 5Ds, like some ordinary Peskov would do.
Cannot be a coincidence...
link?
Oh come on, it is the 4th most popular blog on substack ... it is on his war blog, not on the conspiratorial one
link?
I made this up. There is no article on Simplicius' front page analyzing the latest Foreign Affairs op-ed by Kofman and Lee
I believe you. I just wish you'd provide a link in the future. If you don't I have to google simplcus (I always misspell the name) + substack and it wastes time and i can't be sure that it is what was being referenced.
It is simple etiquette to provide links when referencing something or asking for comment and not assume that someone has read it, and then refuse to do so when asked again lol what even is this.
but then you've always been a rude and surly poster.
I thought posting content from other bloggers or even links is general is bad etiquette, akin to spamming. How many times do people in forums really open links posted by others? Me very seldom. I think on Edward Slavsquat's, he frowns upon links posted inside comments if it's not an open thread type of post.

For the rest, I take offense at your remarks on the perceived failings in my character you list. Especially the 'rude' part, I just tell it how it is. In the past I have even complimented you on your writing and encouraged you to stick to it.

So, why not just ban him? Isn't providing outright lies hurting your reputation? I did not try to find this non-exiting article, but some probably have, wasting their time in the process. I do not understand why you allow this to go on.
I remember you banning someone recently for what it seemed a much smaller infraction - what's this liar's appeal to you?
A clear case of nominative determinism 😉
Regardless of who's winning at the moment, I do support Peace Treaties at all levels.
Simplicius and the other 5D'ers do seem to be on a roll the last few days. In Bhakmut, Wagner is mopping up the city center, while the flanks are holding steady after early fallbacks. The destruction of the ammunition depot in Khmelnitsky and the defeat of the Patriot missile system in Kiev are significant victories for the Russians.
Rolo himself exposed that Prigozhin works for Sergei Kiriyenko, a "legacy ethnic Bolshevik"; and as such, there's no reason to rely on Prigozhin for accurate frontline reports, or even for genuinely cunning maskirovka. And furthermore, that there's no particular reason to think that Putin has made much progress in overcoming the influence of the ethnic Neocon holdovers from the Yeltsin era.
Rolo: "I certainly side with Russia as opposed to the collective West..." but surely, in fact, there is no good reason for Russians and "Westerners" to be murdering each other. The conflict is being whipped up by wealthy elites on both sides, who are traitors to their own people.
As far as siding with Russia, I can at least agree with the view that the Russian government and Russian press are generally more honest than the "Westerners", and that the West was primarily responsible for fomenting the beginnings of this war. But that doesn't mean that I would advocate for the Russians and Chinese to nuke Washington and London, and invade the west coast of the USA. That would be an unmitigated disaster for the West and for me personally, even though our rulers seem to be begging for that outcome.
Rolo has been very crafty and cagey in riding this - for the most part - artificial controversy between "5D chessmasters" and "doomers" that has been stoked up lately.
I wouldn't go so far as to say it's an artificial controversy. It would be very bad, not just for Russia but for the entire world, if Rolo's doomsday scenario comes to pass and Russia is carved up into warlord fiefdoms, competing to prostrate themselves to Western neocons. And almost equally bad, if Russia humiliates the combined NATO forces.
I'm hoping that Rolo and the 5D'ers are both wrong, and we're looking at a stalemate on the battlefield, and an honorable peace treaty that lets Russia keep Crimea and the Donbass.
According to Antony Sutton et al the USSR was molly coddled by western financiers from the start. It didn't suit for it to develop into a market driven consumer economy as the real game was to keep Russia underdeveloped and its resources available to the west.
I find this to be a strong predictive model.
So if it holds I would expect Russia to be maintained as the bete noir to justify NATO's continued existence and the massive feeding trough it provides. - as well as the spook agencies so they can play Spy vs Spy and surveil everybody to make sure they are not sleeping with the enemy and not having any wrongthink.
Russia has to be a taught a lesson to show how righteous and noble the West is. Hence there will be Versailles like peace conditions which I think includes the return of Crimea! I suspect that is what made Putin wobbly with Erdogan holding him up.

This all way beyond the good guys vs the bad guys.
Do you really believe the Ukrainians will tell the whole world their' offensive' wont be a succes?
wake up man, there is still such a thing is maskarova in war. The same maskarova was used in the Ukrainian Kherson offensive, tying down and sending russian reinforcements towards Kherson, then the Ukrainians quietly transferred forces to the kharkov region and launched the suprise counter offensive near balaklaia/izyum/kupiansk area, overrunning and blitzkrieging their way to thinly spread and held russian lines. I am not saying there is no back dealing going on, as we can see by the prison swaps the russian and ukrainian side are clearly in contact and talking with each other. I dont need to read some populair blog to find that out.
you are saying a 5D blogger can't see a 5D move by the Ukrainians
I honestly don't know if I have a "5D narrative"
Rolo, have you thought about writing some articles about Luka and how he's been keeping Belarus not occupied/colonized by the West for close to 30 years, unlike you-know-who-Putin-that's-who that keeps Russia down, robbed, looted, occupied, insulted, humiliated, not-respected, not-trusted, loser in Ukraine and everywhere else, etc. - the list is endless.
Think about it.
P.S. BTW, Please tell Nikola Mikovic, when you see him, to stop calling Luka a "dictator" as that is how NATO calls true leaders that are not their puppets. Their puppets are called "partners". Thanks.
they only call them dictators when they've paid them under the table to play the Big Bad Guy.
