Impending Zrada

Zrada means betrayal, they are sensing a betrayal…

RUSI published this article by Tim Willasey-Willsey CMG…

It talks about the failure of Europe to commit to Putin’s defeat.

The new NATO Secretary General, Mark Rutte, lost no time in visiting Kyiv after he assumed office, where he ‘pledged continued support for Ukraine in its war with Russia’. Doubtless his words were sincerely intended, but he knows there are serious political headwinds across Europe and the US.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky senses this too as he briefs his ‘Victory Plan’ around European capitals following a mixed reception in Washington.

Guys, Zelensky’s victory plan was basically, give us Taurus and Tomahawk, and take us to NATO. Mixed reception LMAO…

The forthcoming presidential election in the US represents the point of maximum danger. A win by Donald Trump could see him placing a phone call to Russian President Vladimir Putin as early as 6 November.

Does anybody believe the Donald will be able to stop the war in Ukraine? Trump was saying things the average US voter wants to hear during the election campaign but his options are limited. He can offer Russia an ultimatum after which he will send Ukraine more weapons. And provided they still have the manpower to drive those Bradleys, the Ukrainians will continue fighting until the bitter end. Besides, providing weapons fits well into the reindustrialization agenda.

Nobody should want this war of ‘meat grinder’ savagery to continue a day longer than necessary. However, Zelensky would have much to fear from a deal negotiated by Trump. The 2020 Doha Accords with the Afghan Taliban have been described as the worst diplomatic agreement since Munich in 1938. Fortunately, Trump was prevented from reaching a similarly disastrous deal with Kim Jong-un of North Korea. 

In any such deal, Zelensky would be unlikely to secure the recovery of Crimea and the Donbas, reparations for the massive damage to his country, war crimes trials or membership of NATO. He might be able to bargain the Kursk salient in return for control of the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant. But, without NATO membership and its Article 5 guarantee, there would be nothing to stop Putin from continuing the war after a couple of years of recovery and rearmament. 

I do not think Russia has run out of steam. Russia will not allow Ukraine to have Zaporozhye, which was already included in Russian constitution as part of Russia. Russia will not allow Ukraine to remain in Kursk. Russia will not allow Ukraine to be in NATO, and Russia will not allow Ukraine to have a military.

US support has always been too little, too late. Given the sheer scale of Washington’s military support this might sound absurd, but President Joe Biden’s hesitancy in allowing Storm Shadow missiles to be used against targets inside Russia is indicative of a general trend. As the head of a global superpower, Biden has always had one eye on ensuring that the war does not get out of hand and become nuclear. The result has been that Ukraine feels it has been given enough not to lose but not enough to win. 

I have never understood this attitude of the Western alliance. Did they expect to defeat Russia with the stockpile of old Soviet junk from Eastern Europe? When the latter was depleted, they sent in HIMARS, Bradleys, Storm Shadows, Abrams… They will send more provided there are any Ukrainians to operate them. In fact, they might even send their own crews to man the rockets.

In Europe the support has been varied. Some countries, such as the Baltics, the Scandinavian states, the UK and Poland, have done better than others. Hungary has been hostile, and may soon be joined by Slovakia and Austria. Germany has provided the most weapons but has been politically unreliable. Its refusal to supply Taurus missilesand its public debate about reducing its defence budget have sent all the wrong messages. German companies continue to retain significant interests in Russia, and the advance of Alternative for Germany in elections in Thuringia, Saxony and Brandenburg reminded Chancellor Olaf Scholz that there is little support for the war in Eastern Germany. President Emmanuel Macron of France, having been mercurial about Ukraine from the outset, received a similar jolt from the far left and far right in legislative elections in July.

Newsflash, the Eurocucks did not want this war. But there is zero political will to act in the interests of Europe among the European ruling class. They have outsourced their defense to the Americans, they have been happily using American social media, and other online infrastructure. The Americans have them by the balls because they finance journalists and NGOs in European countries. Imagine going against US foreign policy interests in Europe, impossible! You will be reviled in the media, only a handful of people have the political capital to afford this. Few of them want to.

The most visible sign of a failure of collective determination to defeat Russia was the decision not to seize Russian financial assets frozen in Western banks, but instead to use them as collateral to raise a much smaller loan. Yes, there would have been a theoretical risk of undermining faith in the Western-dominated financial system, but few countries are yet ready to entrust their savings to Chinese or Indian banks. Furthermore, it would have sent a message to Putin not to invade other countries.

I mean having your savings in a foreign bank, whatever foreign bank is invitation to get robbed.

Barring a mutiny by Russian forces or a crisis in Moscow, the prospects for Ukraine (and therefore Europe) look grim. The irony is that Putin would claim victory in spite of his campaign having been a costly disaster.

What would a betrayed Ukraine look like? At least it would retain some 82% of its territory. A guilty West would doubtless provide aid to rebuild infrastructure. It might be given a pathway to eventual EU membership (unless that option had been bargained away at the negotiating table), but joining the Western club may have lost its appeal at that point. Ukraine’s corrupt oligarchs would re-emerge from hibernation. The old post-Soviet cynicism would replace the youthful enthusiasm of the Maidan generation. There would be antagonism towards those returning from abroad after avoiding the fight, and – of course – thousands of grieving families.

The question is if Russia’s campaign was not worth the cost. Russia’s coal deposits have increased by 13%. Gas, grain, lithium, iron, uranium… The Maidan generation needs to be denazified. Russia will denazify the fuck out of Ukraine.

Failing that, the West will have years to repent the betrayal of the courageous Ukrainians, whose only crime was their wish to join the Western democratic order.

The crimes of the Ukrainians are many, and Russia is there to enact justice.

Russian, Chinese, Iranian, North Korean Machine

I thought Ukraine was supposed to win with the support of Western democracies. We have been told, by Karlin for instance, that the West has a GDP far surpassing Russia, and the Russians would simply lose…

It is rather questionable the amount of help Russia received from the likes of China, North Korea, or Iran. We have all heard about Iranian drones the Shahid-Geran but it is unclear how many of those drones Iran has delivered, or whether the Russians haven’t acquired the technology and don’t produce the drones themselves. I think the second option is more probable, and the Russian have actually perfected the Iranian prototype.

There was a story about the Russians firing a North Korean version of Iskander, the Kimskander. There was also a story about North Korea providing artillery shells. There was also a story that the North Korean shells are shit and they explode prematurely. If the second information is true, and not just a propaganda, this form of help wasn’t worth much. On the other hand, we have also heard that Russia is perfectly capable of producing shells by themselves.

Recently, a story about North Korean soldiers being sent to Ukraine has surfaced. The Kim regime could be interested in providing its troops with some combat experience but is this a game-changer? On the other hand, Ukraine has attracted thousands of volunteers from the West, from Georgia, Chechens and Islamists from North Caucasus and the Middle East. This is a very internationalized conflict, and many parties would like to be present.

China’s position is not exactly supportive of Russia’s efforts. You don’t hear about the Russians firing Chinese ammo and rockets on Ukraine. Recently, I heard China is developing drones together with Russia. I think I saw a document that said China will work with Russia but not to the detriment of its own interests. Hence, China is happy to import Russian oil and gas but Chinese banks might be reluctant to service Russian clients because of sanctions. Also, many of those FPV drones Ukraine was using to destroy Russian tanks were bought from China. China recently said they will not allow export of technologies that might be used for military purposes but I don’t think Beijing has the infrastructure to police people in Czechia that send drones to Ukraine.

And this brings me to another point. Ukraine is benefiting from an international financial system. I have seen zero fundraisers for Russia or the republics of the Donbas but I have seen a lot of fundraisers for Ukraine. That is on top of packages sent by Western governments. Russia has only itself to rely on, and Ukraine is still losing. The whole point in having Ukraine fight Russia was to deal a blow with Russia by proxy. Russia is seen, by the West as a competitor that ought to be contained by constantly mounting sanctions, negative PR, and proxy conflicts on its borders. This stress is supposed to halt Russia. And nobody gives a fuck if some Ukrs are going to die at this.

Apple Zrada

2 weeks ago, Apple deleted almost 100 VPN, today independent media. Current Time and Radio Liberty. (Note: both of these “independent” media are sponsored by the US government)

I spoke about this at a UN session. Such measures don’t do any harm to Putin, they give him advantage because he controls the TV.

However, they are depriving the Russians of access to truthful and honest information.

It is a mistake to follow a repressive law, to pay billions in fines in Russian war chest and to think we exist in a world of “business as usual.”

Context

Czechia Payed More for Russian Gas Than for Helping Ukrs

Czechia paid Russia 5 times for its oil and gas than it sent in aid to Ukraine…

Source

This number comes from the Centre for the study of democracies and the Centre for the study of energies and clean air. These bona fide, no doubt non-profit (taxpayer funded) organizations say that Czechia could shed its dependence on Russian oil and gas by importing gas from Norway, and buying LNG on the international market (did you know the latter is often also Russian?). Oil could be imported through a pipeline from Italy. Czechia is 60% dependent on Russian oil.

Google Trends Zrada in 2024

I saw this TikTok…

Unfortunately, the video contains copyrighted music and YouTube is limiting the views on this. But what it shows is what I have covered on this blog, that is that the Ukrainian language is only really used in Western Ukraine, and Google shows as much.

You might hear people say that Ukrainians have switched to Ukrainian because Putin invaded. Some might have gone through this transition but I bet you most did not. Here is Zhirinovski splitting a Ukraine cake for you. Watch it on a wide screen for the best detail.

Biden is Scared of Putin

Source

A new narrative. Biden is apparently afraid of Putin and does not give the Ukrainian Nazis the wunderwaffe needed to defeat Russia. We are being told that if we just gave the Ukrainiana more gear they would defeat Putin. If we just allowed the Ukrnazis to shoot cruise missiles at Russia, Putin would flex.

NATO membership for Ukraine has again reared its head. In reality, what they want to do is to leave Russia a part of Ukraine, negotiate piece and then accept what remains of Ukraine into NATO. You will hear Western officials goading Ukraine to accept loss of territory in exchange for ceasefire.

Luckily though, Zelensky cannot do this, he would be deposed by the Nazis, who want to continue the fight. And that’s why they will be destroyed and Russia will be restored.

War and Theft

Thou shall not bury yer dead on BlackRock’s land!(this is probably a fake story but morbidly entertaining)

While the Ukrainians are made to die on the battlefield, the Zelensky regime sells Ukrainian land to international financiers. This is the reality of modern war, the poor schmucks are forced to defend “Western democracy”, or what not, in their own piss and shit, in trenches in Eastern Ukraine. Their wives are cuckolding them while they are away. And Vanguard buys all the fields…

Having something to fight for is very important. Recruitment in Russia is largely voluntary, in Ukraine they literally have to snatch men off the streets…

This ain’t me saying this. A new report from Oakland Institute does.

“Despite being at the center of news cycle and international policy, little attention has gone to the core of the conflict — who controls the agricultural land in the country known as the breadbasket of Europe. Answer to this question is paramount to understanding the major stakes in the war,” said Frédéric Mousseau, Oakland Institute’s Policy Director and co-author of the report.

My friends, I have said this before, Russia needs to come out of this war holding the most of the Ukrainian Chernozem Belt. In a sense, this will be a liberation because these international financiers are banned by sanctions to invest in Russia.

The total amount of land controlled by oligarchs, corrupt individuals, and large agribusinesses is over nine million hectares — exceeding 28 percent of Ukraine’s arable land. The largest landholders are a mix of Ukrainian oligarchs and foreign interests — mostly European and North American as well as the sovereign fund of Saudi Arabia. Prominent US pension funds, foundations, and university endowments are invested through NCH Capital, a US-based private equity fund.

***

Several agribusinesses, still largely controlled by oligarchs, have opened up to Western banks and investment funds — including prominent ones such as Kopernik, BNP, or Vanguard — who now control part of their shares. Most of the large landholders are substantially indebted to Western funds and institutions, notably the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) and the World Bank.

***

Western financing to Ukraine in recent years has been tied to a drastic structural adjustment program that has required austerity and privatization measures, including the creation of a land market for the sale of agricultural land. President Zelenskyy put the land reform into law in 2020 against the will of the vast majority of the population who feared it would exacerbate corruption and reinforce control by powerful interests in the agricultural sector. Findings of the report concur with these concerns. While large landholders are securing massive financing from Western financial institutions, Ukrainian farmers — essential for ensuring domestic food supply — receive virtually no support. With the land market in place, amidst high economic stress and war, this difference of treatment will lead to more land consolidation by large agribusinesses.

Few Ukrainians realize that treason is salvation and liberation…

What We Are Afraid Of?

Angry Russians stealing toilets…

Honcharenko resurrects the Russophobic meme about Russians shitting in the street and not having toilets. I have addressed this issue here, and have come to the conclusion that the toilet situation is actually worse in Ukraine.

Once upon a time, Honcharenko campaigned in Odessa in support of the Russian language. He was harvesting the votes. Then he got fucked over in Crimea…

Then he helped burn people alive in Odessa. And now he wasn’t to shoot rockets at Russia. Nice career, don’t you think? And this little twerp says that the rocket strikes would depose Putin. What is worse, Putin or a faggot that burned people alive in Odessa?
