Why can't Russia and Ukraine be friends?

Because Ukrainians are getting paid for not being friends with us. If a Russian company sells something to Ukraine or buys something in Ukraine, it’s good for the company, and it can pay taxes, dividends, bribes, whatever. And that is good for the Russian politicians, in more ways than one. But if a Ukrainian politician is paid from abroad to not have a good relationship with Russia, it is easier for them to do that than to maintain a relationship with Russia. Years ago, Victoria Nuland proudly reported that the US invested $5 billion in Ukrainian politics. And that was just the money she was able to talk about in the open. Right now, the West is showering Ukraine with money in order to keep them fighting, and the EU is standing in line to accept Ukraine into its ranks and shove even more free money into it, year after year. We can’t compete with that.

The 5 billion investment was even televised in EU, including the "Yats is our man". Not the least reaction from the EU even after the "Fvck the EU" comment was made public. In the Netherlands a referendum was held with the result summarized as "no association whatever with Ukraine" and the gangster who now is NATO boss ignored it completely, declaring "the war against Russia is our war!"

"There are clans that permeate the state structures of the post-Soviet countries, and each of these clans leads its own game."

Once you get more loyalty to a clan or party, there will be no consideration of the good of the country as a whole. Every combatant has this problem to some extent or another, but once it becomes dominant, the country will fall.

These Donbass peasants are naive as fuck, including Mozgovoi. Corresponding with anonymous "Deva" character? Why! I too, was Saker fan. He is a bit of special case though. When war started, he did not double down on Zanon nonsense. He commenced strange evasive behavior ("sick leave/house in Florida flooded"), then he closed the blog, which had quite a strong readership back then.

My initial awakening was thanks to the Saker, who refused to cover the fact that Putin was as committed to the covid fraud as the West. He would dodge all questions regarding the plandemic. That was when it dawned on me, that the so called pro-Russian blogosphere was part of the matrix. Then I ended up on Edward Slavsquat. When the Ukraine war started and Russia was clearly not doing well, despite what Ritter was saying, I ended up here.

Thanks Saker and Ritter for waking me up !

The fraud was on a global scale. The day covid was proclaimed "pandemic", the Panamanian research institute wrote to prioritize antivirals and the next day it switched to "vaccines". That despite the knowledge that corona viruses mutate so fast that any corona vaccine is useless at best (!).

Proper ad hoc treatment when respiratory pathway is involved, inhaling air containing hydrogen peroxide or chlorine dioxide. It couldn't even be mentioned on "social" media, "violating community standards". So Putin indeed went along with lockdown hoopla and Russian MSM produced photos of bored people, barbecuing at home - not exactly a recipe for good health either.

All the time it must have been known that the virus was manmade, as indicated by the presence of the furin cleavage site, discussed by many microbiologists.

While for both the RF and the PRC extreme caution was correct (US bioweapon labs at the borders), what was done instead was "following orders from the West". In the case of China, dependent on trade relations with the West, somewhat understandable, in the case of Russia, absolutely not.

With vaccine investor Gates having "predicted" the next and worse plandemic, it will be interesting to see which countries learned the lesson.

It seems to me that Mozgovoi woke up too late and realized what was really going on after he'd already seized power. So he found himself stuck between two hostile powers with very few cards to play.

Ultimately, economic independence is a prerequisite for political independence. We're seeing this play out in Transnistria right now - their army is intact, their legendary arms depot is untouched, and yet they're bleeding human capital because they don't have enough gas to keep the houses warm and the lights on.

"In other words, the more complicated the theology, the more you are reliant on a high-priest to interpret it for you."

Indeed. This is why I've had an interest in Neville (Goddard), whose all-American New Thought conveyed ancient teachings that others -- most currently, guys like Dugin or Evola, in his own day, Crowley -- bury in obscure "mystical" mumbo-jumbo or galaxy-brained "metaphysics." Neville relied entirely on his encyclopedic knowledge of the Bible -- he could make a monkey out of any priest or minister who tried to debate him -- but that was just as a source of stories that everyone (back then) knew so he could use them to make points. There was no "theology." Neville would teach a "simple method" and then say "Go home tonight and try it. If it works, tell me the story; if it doesn't, you haven't had to spend a dime."

As Dugin shows, people are still suckers for bafflegab, figuring "it must mean something, no one would spend their time making all this stuff up." Oh, but they would, especially at Langley.

As a teenager, complex theology made me ask questions like "what happens to a religious person becoming demented, starting to curse everything and everyone, and behave "sinfully"? The nonsensical and often contradictory answers from the supposed "authorities" were of a kind to checkmate them and to abandon the prison of organized "religion" forever. IOW long ago religion has become politics with components you're not supposed to question let alone, investigate.

@mtracey

The incoming National Security Advisor, Mike Waltz, says the Trump Admin will "ask" Ukraine to lower its draft age to 18, so Ukrainian forces gain the manpower to blunt Russian advances. That's certainly far more extreme conscription than what the Biden Admin has ever "asked" for

As long as 500 billion dollars owned by Russia’s elite remain in American banks, there is no way for Russia to use its nuclear potential," Zbigniew Brzezinski reportedly once said.

I thank you for this series, highlighting that there is no dealing with the pretzel logic people. Loyalty and honor puts you at a disadvantage if you play by their wretched rules, so not playing their game is the only winning strategy.

The prophet spoke.

"Their plan is to remove Lebanon and Syria so that the borders of so-called Israel are with Turkey rather than with Arab countries. You will see this achieved, if not in our era, then in our children's era... Syria will become 5 small states."

Why did the Russian gas flow to Europe via Ukraine stop?

Because Ukraine no longer needs the money nor the gas from Russia. Gas transit was good for the Ukrainian budget for decades, but, nowadays, the EU doesn’t want Russian gas, and Ukraine doesn’t need the money, because the EU is expected to provide that for years to come. Also, Ukraine has enough of its local gas to supply the consumers they still have in the country. Historically, it was buying Russian gas for its industries (i.e. not for the people), but its economy is not what it used to be, and the population is also smaller. The EU says that it is prepared for this development, so the EU countries should not worry. Of course, they will be paying extra, but the Europeans have the money. Really, it’s mostly a problem for unrecognized Transnistria, because Russia can’t supply it with gas anymore. This opens the way for Transnistrian reunification with Moldova, as long as Moldova can get enough gas for both of them from the EU.
