Again, this has been Paul Craig Roberts argument from the beginning. He bangs this drum every week ... probably because he understands Washington much better than Putin does.
>But whatever givens I’m working with and the logic I use to string them together into a coherent worldview seem to be seem to have been pretty goddamn accurate so far, no?<
You bet.

"Putin says there are "no issues or problems" with how his "special military operation" is going at the moment"
Watch him smile as he talks in the video. It tells us everything.
good report; but you say "My working theory is that it was one of those rare lucid moments when the old Joe Biden personality from the 90s briefly surfaced and spoke some common sense." I believe the 'old' joe bidet is dead, and has been for a few years; there are three actors for his avatar, and they're doing a splendid job of behaving like stupid shits.
Why is it that Russia has never taken decisive actions to destroy Ukraine's rail network especially as more and more NATO and US weapons have arrived? I can understand initially they may have wanted to preserve the infrastructure but after western leaders and actors began to routinely arrive it just made Russia look very weak. How many Russian soldiers have needlessly lost their lives because these weapon shipments were not halted near the border?
Everything that you write is based on one single assumption: that Putin and his government are not part of the same global cabal that controls all Western governments.
Bearing in mind that the invasion of Ukraine was absolutely essential for Western governments to use as the excuse for sending energy prices through the roof - a key globalist objective; and bearing in mind that Putin & Co. did and said exactly the same things at each stage of the 'Covid crisis' and clot shots operation as all other (globalist) governments...
- I think that your assumption that Putin & Co. are not working for the global cabal is wrong.
I think that the supposed antagonism between Russia and the West is just a lonf-planned piece of theatre for the masses - where Putin has to play the bad guy... so that the populations of the West won't realize that their own governments are deliberately destroying their own economies for the Great Reset.
Its all looking more and more like the same old ethnic neocon problem to me. If Russia goes down in total defeat the jews within the Oligarchy will come out ahead. They will either be the direct rulers or the string pullers of the successor puppet states that will exist on the territory of the former RF. The non jews amongst the present elite will be hung or spend life in prison. Miller and Gref will be painted as "Putins Oligarchs who financed his bloody war against Democracy in Ukraine" and the peasants in the West will be none the wiser in regards to what pro Western cucks they actually were. The non jews in the Oligarchy desperately want to go back to the status quo and get the convergence Rolo is talking about back on track.
The jewish Oligarchs want a straight defeat for Russia because they increasingly have less and less stake in the current system and the initial purge in February and March hit them the hardest. They will be portrayed as victims unlike Greff, Miller, Nabiullina etc. A total partitioning and divvying up of the remains of the RF along the ethnic neocons lines would suit them just fine. However the Greffs and Millers want to hang on to the current rotten system and set the clock back, they seriously dont understand that things have already gone to far and nothing but a clear cut victory will save their lives and some of their fortune and power.
It seems like a small number of the non Jewish elite are catching on to this, Kadyrov, Medved, and that Malofeev dude who owns tsargrad tv for example. Unfortunately the non jews who are working in tandem with the jews are the more influencial and more absolutely delusional of the bunch. But the glue holding the 5th column together are certainly the yids, no doubt.
It seems reasonable to assume that Russia will eventually have to react to provocations as the provocations will otherwise keep escalating. So what can Russia reasonably do? Tactical nukes in Ukraine are an option. Anything else? Strikes against Nato facilities training or repairing Ukrainian arms would be a much larger step than nukes in Ukraine.
Earlier this year, Russia was facing a blockade of its enclave. Somehow the EU lifted this blockade. So maybe this is why Putin hopes that sometimes the West does back down.
Russia's main problem is it is on its own, for the most part. Cuba is not going to cut off the Mississippi/Gulf with anti-ship missiles and China is not going to supply free weapons. Unless these countries think "If Russia goes down, then we are next" Russia will be cornered into using nukes because of the vast array of countries against it.
This whole thing since 2014 has been bad for the Ukraine, which shows it is a puppet state used to provoke. Ever since USA-Nuland handpicked the puppets the Ukraine lost Crimea, then 1/2 the Donbas, then Azov coast, and now lost electricity.
"Theologically, the only difference between the Orthodox position and the Evangelical one regarding the end times is that Orthodox priest are quick to point out that nothing we do can quicken or affect the slotted date for when the end of the world will kick off. In contrast, Evangelicals believe that they can expedite the end times by supporting Israel, triggering a nuclear war, followed by the Rapture, the return of Jesus, the dead rising from their graves like zombies and so on."
I feel you really need to watch those last eps of Sophia again.
It's not that there is nothing we can do. It's that the Evangelicals want to bring the reign of hell on earth. There is a difference.
Russia wont do shit. Pussies. NATO doesn t give a flying fuck, they will give the ukranians everything tanks, F16, ATACMS, and even nukes because....fuck you that s why. The ukranians will continue to sucker punch the russians( Crimeea Bridge 2.0). And the Kremlin wont do shit, pussies. Putin ain t Stalin.

You correctly describe some Evangelical sentiments, but Evangelicals are nowhere near the decision making in this matter.

Bingo. You've nailed it, my friend. "So foul a sky clears not without a storm." -- Shakespeare, King John; Act 4, Scene 2
Seems ukies struck a Melitopol holiday resort with yank HIMARS, killing and injuring civilians.
Is VVP going to give another speech of satisfaction on the SMO ?

Wowaweewah and shucks howdy indeed! You sure sport a knack for brilliant reporting 😁
`Nother due credit is squirming to be dispensed for filling a yawning gap in our education: racist comes from Russia—who'd a thunk it?! 😂
