    “Putin broke 30 years of peace” There was peace because Russia was patiently protesting NATO expansion to the East but NATO despite warnings from seasoned diplomats kept on moving east close to Russia’s border. Finally, Putin issued a warning in his Munich speech in 2007 and drew a red line over any further expansion. Then there was 2014 coup in Ukraine engineered by US which resulted in annexation of Crimea followed by a referendum, breakaway Donbass regions that were victimized for 8 years by Ukraine government militarily. The conversation in the West completely ignore talking about it when discussing the conflict.

    That is not the reason Trump was ridiculed. Trump was ridiculed because his manner of speaking largely relies on carrying out campaigns of actively disparaging anything and anyone who doesn't already agree with him. Take it as a learning moment: If you want to make a consequential statement, do so in a way which doesn't rhetorically incinerate those who might disagree with you. If you ever want to persuade anyone of anything, it'd be best to create a pathway for those people to save face, to pivot to a new idea without looking humiliated. Trump did not understand how to do this, and the ridicule he faced was entirely avoidable if he just took a less vindictive path. Again, take it as a learning moment.

Listening to him makes one feel he is coming to his conclusions based on the weight of the entire body of facts. But in reality he is more of an op ed person and argues for his POV (or for which he is paid for) which is a globalist view. I don’t trust his arguments but i listen to the facts that he provides (selective as the may be).

    The word Nazis is a misnomer. Russia calls "They must be followers of Hitler" all unemployed men from west Ukraine who organize protest marches in ethnic Russian neighborhoods. They march through ethnic Russian neighborhoods and in Russian speaking towns such as Odesa with burning wooden torches in their hands. These men ride by motorcycles, new and old, starting across Ukraine from either Kyiv or Lviv City to organize protest marches and to create chaos in Russian speaking towns such as Odesa. Not a single arsonist either in Ukraine or the USA and not a single arsonist living in the western hemisphere, as mentioned in many Forensic Files episodes of the US, were ever followers of Hitler. Internet research at the time indicates: These incidents of arsonists marching through Russian speaking towns like Odesa, KKK style, happened before the war of 2022. An arsonist or ethnic Ukrainian protest marcher marching with a lynch mob in Russian speaking towns of Ukraine is branded a Nazi by Moscow. In Ukraine, ethnic Russians and Cossacks were likely always stupid, as they used to sign up for military service for the last 50 years. This created an opportunity for ethnic Ukrainian military officers, most likely to sacrifice ethnic Russians by fighting wars after war by sending them to Donbass and the salt town near by. Ethnic Ukrainians of central Ukraine and west Ukraine were more interested in increasing their populations. and to stay Intact and alive during earlier wars, most likely. From what I had read, military officers hired by Kyiv are predominantly ethnic Ukrainians. Possibly four years ago, there are KZread videos. That time, large motor cycle borne groups of men, many ethnic Ukrainians along with some ethnic Russians in their ranks would travel on old motor cycles and new motor cycles to ethnic Russian speaking cities such as Odesa. Members of the Deep state of the western hemisphere may have possibly promised , although I doubt that, these groups of men coming from near Lviv and from near Kyiv, large sums of money or financial aid up to a trillion dollars, in exchange for burning down houses of ethnic Russians in Donbass or Odesa city or elsewhere. These non Nazi gangs are usually from Lviv area or Kyiv area. These marching groups with KKK style burning wooden logs would march through town after town. In one attack on a building in Odesa as seen on KZread they killed 40 people. These attacks inside a building in order to kill 40 ethnic Russians in that building in Russian speaking Odessa. Anything which will bring in a trillion dollars in aid to this non NATO member is acceptable. This is reported on national TV in Russian Federation. Someone in Russian Federation says, "Gosh, About 200 followers of Hitler have just reached Odesa by motor cycles from Lviv city. Now these followers of Hitler want to various ethnic Russian neighborhoods of Odesa and other Russian speaking cities and scorch their houses. Theses followers of Hitler are marching through these neighborhoods with burning logs of wood." Fact: These threatening marches happened. Fiction: These are not followers of Adolf of Hitler.

Russia just manages to live normally with minimal commodity imports for dollars and euros. It simply does not need these currencies, the demand is at zero, hence the exchange rate. Today it was banned from paying debts in dollars and euros. At the same time, they can pay - they have a huge amount of these dollars and euros - half of the reserves are not frozen, and enterprises and the population have plenty of them. Actually, this is a debt default of the US, not Russia. The US zeroed its papers, switched off them from global market. But there are a lot of them in Russia, no one just needs them, there is nothing to buy with them. It's amazing that Russia lives a normal life. Otherwise, of course, it is a genocide of the Russian population. An attempt to cancel a huge number of people.

    The problem in the west is that we have completely taken for granted the intelligence and knowledge that countries such as Russia, China and India (not 5th largest) have. We underestimate the socio-economic impact they can have. Ukraine was carefully planned and it is well underway to achieve what they (Russia, China en allies) have intended all along: bleed dry Europe, cause civil unrest, manufacture an energy crisis, strengthen their block and collaboration and ultimately bring down the dollar which is with its days numbered by the way. The only thing holding the dollar at the moment is the US military. God helps us that happens, we will be in for WW3. To my point, Putin knows EXACTLY what he is doing. I sincerely regret the media in the West cannot report the truth, West politicians' hubris and shortsightedness are harming more than helping us to understand the critical moment we live in now. Only a clear long view of history can give us the understanding we need to go through this difficult time. Since both the media and politicians are after ratings they refrain from telling the truth. BRIC's currencies have been outperforming the dollar, few weeks ago the Vatican now order all assets to be transferred to the Vatican Bank, what is going on that we are not being told about. The West is done, there is a new world order moving eastward and also to countries in the southern hemisphere. Watch out for the next 10 years if we are still around of course...
