    • @JamesBrown-ux9ds
      @JamesBrown-ux9ds Před 4 dny

      Yes and - Putin will still have extremly high hurdles for the west to jump over towards peace. The US, Nato, Nuland and the small baltic states cleary said they were after Russia, Russia to become sliced into several states, to fight Russia until the last Ukrainean, etc.. Behind closed Doors I would ask the heads of von der Leyen, Stoltenberg, Nuland and Selensky on a silver plattern before any talks could start at all.
      And of course this war is building up momentum towards the west everyday more (1) - the NK troops now arriving want to see more of the west as well - why should they turn just west of the Donbass (2) around without having seen Lwiw or Berlin(3)?
      1 - So why should Putin hold it back?
      2 - The 'EDF - Eurasian Defense Force, Sector NK', needs to become trained all around the eurasian plate anyway, why not use this chance to make it a little more familiar with it's future fields of duty with regard to the coming decades?
      3 - Proactive western diplomacy would invite them, a group of them to Berlin, 'Wandel durch Annäherung' - 'Wo sie nun einmal in der Ukraine sind, könnten Sie doch auch gleich noch ein bisschen weiter nach Westen fahren, dass man sich diplomatisch ein bisschen näher bekannt machen könnte, auch so unter Soldaten?'

Our whole corrupt political system is an absolute joke, on us, and life's experiences over the last few decades, the decline of our living standards, unnecessary wars, the WEF covid plandemic farce, agenda lockdown etc, financial meltdown, have totally destroyed people's faith in any government body, except for the few small parties that never stood a chance anyway.

      The world Bank just raised Russia to high income from upper middle in their yearly assessment. They are also expected to grow gdp
      2.5 % .
      All this despite sanctions. They have all needed resources and need nothing from us or Europe.
      Now they have brics countries and a war economy that is outproducing the west in artillery.
      It will take us 2 years to match output.
      We need to face the fact that the west and nato badly underestimated Russia
      Ukraine is out of men just about and the west is out of weapons.
      Europe is who gets screwed the worst in all this with an economy in shambles and no oil.
      When Trump gets back in office we will go back to being energy independent and a net exporter of oil again. We have more oil in shale than saudi.
      Biden stopped that on day 1 because he's bought and paid for by the green lobby and special interest groups .

    Following your comments on Margaret Thatcher (which I must say, I share) - it is somewhat remarkable that Farage and Trump apart - the West seems to lack any effective or talented politicians.

    [Outstanding, Russian Armed Forces! God go with you as He has so many times in perilous battles, Borodino to name one!]
    Russian forces have carried out 23 combined strikes on Ukrainian targets in the past week, the Defense Ministry in Moscow has said.
    The attacks, which took place between June 29 and July 5, involved both “high precision weapons” and drones, the ministry said in a statement on Friday.
    They hit Ukrainian airfields, as well as energy infrastructure used to power the country’s military-industrial complex. Sites where Kiev’s missiles were being stored and prepared for launch were also successfully targeted.
    Russian missiles and UAVs also destroyed fuel depots used for Ukrainian hardware, and assembly shops for aerial drones and unmanned boats, the ministry added.
    During the past week, Russian air-defense systems shot down two Ukrainian Air Force MiG-29s and one Su-27 jet, five US-supplied ATACMS missiles, 14 Storm Shadow cruise missiles that had been donated by Britain, 42 rockets for US-made HIMARS, and Czech-made Vampire systems, as well as 451 drones of various types, the statement read.
    The total losses incurred by the Ukrainian military over the past seven days have reached up to 13,500 servicemen, according to the defense ministry. The most intense fighting apparently took place in Russia’s Donetsk People’s Republic (DPR), where more than 7,700 Ukrainian troops were killed or severely wounded. - RT

    Sinn Fein has become the largest political party in Westminster, Stormont and in the local councils, a hat trick of success that for the first time in history sees a Nationalist party with the largest mandate! Also, this makes them the 5th largest party in the Commons due to the unfortunate collapse of the SNP in Scotland. Also the UUP have an MP for the first time in years and the DUP vote collapsed probably like the SNP - due to a large extent on the criminal proceedings facing both of the party leaders?

    The question is: How much longer will Starmer last as compared to Liz Truss

      Er!! Od give Starmer till 2026 and the public young and old will turn against the Party as a whole!!
      Why??
      Well, the one single " ingredient" a political Party needs for survival is a philosophy - something the Party stands for through thick or thin!!!
      Starmer, as most of not all Western politicians have fallen for is not the economic development of the population that allows them choice in every aspect of their lives, rather the Party has debunked economic choices for the public as a whole, and plumbed it seems for peripheral believes as gender issues, " green" politics based on the end of civilization, and other non- essentials to people's daily lives and futures!!
      This is doomed to failure in Britain as long as it continues to have this internal view of the world, and does not educate it's public of realities as the rise of BRICS and the political impact this will have on internal UK politics and the gradual demise of the US as world leader!!
      In short, Starmer as captain, has no clue of where the ship is/ should be heading, as the captain takes the view that as long as the crew, not the passengers are important, then I'm afraid the captain will not look outward and see the rocks to which he steers the ship!!
      Starmer as captain?? God help and deliver SS Great Britain!!!!!!!

    There is a huge Labor Party billboard in the UK, red color background with a text by Keir Starmer that says:
    "Israel has the right" to cut off food, water & electricity to 2 million people in Gaza.
    Half of the billboard is occupied by a photograph of Starmer and his wife, who happens to be Jew...

      Mr Starmer does not do any work after 6pm on Fridays, presumably to celebrate the shabbat.

      @@williamtell6750 That would be understandable as a private religious practice...
      But what is SCARY is that they brought it out in public in such a way which indicates Labor Party and the majority of UK citizens fully support Israeli Genocide... 😰
