The One Year Anniversary of the SMO/Not-War is Upon Us

Allow me to say a few words.

I think we were all expecting Putin to say a few words to mark the occasion. However, Press Secretary Peskov has come out and said that no address has been prepared by the President. I suppose that the last speech we heard from him is all we are going to get.

In lieu of any further speech by Putin, I have taken it upon myself to provide one instead. The title of my speech is: “The Great Checkmate,” by Rolo Slavski.

Twenty-six 2 week periods ago, the Russian Federation launched a surprise military operation, surprising the world, and most importantly, the top Kremlin functionaries as well. It was an auspicious and a hopeful time for the Russia internet expert community. Careers were built in those early days as the world tuned in to hear the truth, censored in the West, and now only available on true “darkweb” truth-bunkers like Patreon, Twitter and Facebook. In just three short days, the entire Ukrainian Nazi expeditionary force was eliminated, having put up no resistance whatsoever. By the end of the first two weeks, Russia had already achieved all of its stated objectives. However, a few weeks later, a new NATO army was airdropped around Kiev and Sumy and Chernigov and Kharkov, allowing Russia to pull back and adopt a new, ground-breaking military strategy going forward.

Now the West had done it. They had finally given the Russian bear the poke that it needed.

Russia allowed the West to fall right in its cleverly and carefully planned trap in the very beginning of the war by allowing Russian assets to be confiscated, and by not informing anyone except a select few insider “small hat” Russian patriots like Roman Abramovich that a SMO was even being planned. While Roman moved his money, as per plan, the West took the bait and stole billions upon billions of roubles from Russia, Russian businesses and, even private individuals in some cases, thereby handing the Kremlin a powerful moral victory in the war. Now the Third World knew which side was fighting for the good and the light. Millions of Africans and Arabs raised Russian flags and marched in their cities to signal their support for the “moral superpower” as many international experts had since taken to start calling Russia. Putin, the Humanitarian Czar, planned to use these moral victories to start trading with non-Western countries once the Western sanctions were imposed. Once again, Russia proved that they were simply better prepared than the West, and had baited themselves into sanctions so that they could sell more oil and gas to the Chinese for much cheaper prices, thereby securing another “moral judo flip” and also making heaps of money selling natural resources for less money than they would be getting on the market -a “moral harikiri” as it is referred to by all the top Russia experts.

But this strategy of “moral warfare” was just entering its open stages. NATOkranian army foolishly accepted Snake Island back from Russia, thereby handing Russia yet another moral victory and for grain shipments to flow to the grateful peoples of the Russia-loving world. Many military experts showed how small-minded they were by lambasting such a big-hearted gesture. They failed to understand that NATO and Kiev were playing 4D military checkers, while Russia had actually checkmated them several times in 5D moral chess. Instead of accepting their loss graciously, however, NATO and the West foolishly continued to push for more fighting even though they had already lost several times.

The Ukrainian army had already been defeated, the dollar had already been abandoned, and Russia had secured its position as leader of the free world. All this and we were only thirteen 2 week periods into the special military operation! What fresh wonders would the next thirteen 2 week periods bring? The sky was the limit and the internet experts began to brew fresh pots of tea boiled with the tears of NATO generals and sip it smugly while waiting for the leaves to settle so that the next blog post could be prepared.

We learned a great many things in the period that followed. That Russia was preparing a massive military offensive in September, then October, then November, New Year’s, January for sure, and, finally, on the one year anniversary of the start of the SMO.

During that time, Russia did not sit idly by and instead led the NATOkranian army into many well-prepared traps. They lured them into Kharkov by pretending to abandon it. Then, the enemy fell for the same trap again by moving into Kherson. In other words, Russia won two more moral victories and checkmated their opponents three more times in that period. But, again, because of their hubris, the West refused to realize that they had been beaten already and instead began to quietly mass new units for a fresh push in Zaporozhie.

We are now only two weeks away from the final checkmate of the NATOkrainian army.

This Not-War was won the minute that Vladimir Putin was born and the plan to checkmate the West jotted down in crayon at the nursery.

I’ll have a more serious write-up tomorrow.

The more serious text will be titled: “We Wanted the Best, But Things Turned Out the Same as Always.”

As a runner-up prize, here is what Dmitri Medvedev had to say to mark the occasion. He believes that negotiations are about to start. That Ukraine will become an Israel on Russia’s borders. No mention of the new mega-offensive.

It sounds like he reads this blog.

It's been a year since the special operation began. A year since our servicemen began to restore order, peace and justice in our land, protect our people and destroy the roots of neo-Nazism. They are heroes.

The whole country helps them, supplying the front with everything necessary.

Victory will be achieved. We all want this to happen as soon as possible. And that day will come. We will return our territories and reliably protect our people, who have suffered during the years of genocide and shelling.

What's next?

There will be negotiations, which, I am sure, will become difficult and nervous. First of all, because the formal participants in the negotiations on the part of our enemy are one group, but the actual decision-makers are a different group. And decisions for the Kiev regime will, of course, not be made by some kind of Zelensky, if he is still alive, or his clique. The decision will be made across the ocean by those in whose hands the supply of weapons to Kyiv and the allocation of money to maintain the remains of the Ukrainian economy. The motives of the main enemies of our country are obvious: to weaken Russia as much as possible, to bleed us for a long time. Therefore, they are not interested in ending the conflict. But sooner or later, according to historical laws, they will do it. And then there will be an agreement. Naturally, without fundamental agreements on real borders or on a new Helsinki Pact that ensures security in Europe. Just some kind of agreement.

Then, most likely, a no less difficult time will begin. Exhausting months and years of confrontation, tantrums and rudeness on the part of those who will manage the stub that remains of Ukraine. Their fate is unenviable. They will not be able to recognize the results of the SMO without the risk of being executed on the same day. The nationalists will continue to control the powerful camarilla, because none of them have any other ideology than Bandera's neo-Nazism. Recognition of defeat for them is like death. Therefore, the ideology of “a victory no matter what” can remain for a long time.

And at some point, the new boys … who call themselves the legal Ukrainian authorities, will again provoke a world conflict. It doesn't matter - on the eve of the elections or on the eve of the next Maidan.

This cannot be allowed.

Therefore, it is so important to achieve all the goals of the special military operation. Push the threats to our country as far back as possible, even if these are the borders of Poland. Destroy neo-Nazism to the ground. In order not to waste time later on catching the remnants of Bandera gangs in the Little Russian forests. So that the world will achieve the long-awaited peace.

And there you have it, folks.
