'Rumor has is that traitors Anthony Blinken, Victoria Nuland, Susan Rice, and Alexander Vindman advised Zelensky to stand tall in his meeting with Trump. If true, they are acting as foreign agents violating the Logan Act.'

'The US isn't going to give security guarantees.'
- Bes they are going to get is the mineral deal.
It means the US has business interests in Ukraine for the coming decades.

"Russia isn't a threat to the US."
No, they're not, but it doesn't mean Russia isn't prepared to fight NATO if they have no choice. "It's army has been shown to be a paper tiger and Poland and its immediate allies will be able to handle it."
- They are no a paper tiger. They've had the worst economic sanctions placed on them than any other country, and are still advancing on the battlefield with a million dead Ukrainians even though some 50 countries including the US has provided military and financial support to Ukraine, and Poland gets smacked down by the US anytime they suggest intercepting Russian missiles over Ukraine.

"Additionally, Russia is now pushed out of any Middle Eastern role. So there is no longer any reason for the US and Russia to oppose each other and plenty of reasons for them to adopt a level of rapprochement."
They are part of OPEC and have a strategic partnership with Iran.

"The Europeans and Ukraine are desperate to try to lock the US into security guarantees for the Ukrainian border."
- It's a trap, and a continuation of the Ukrainian victory plan.
Both Trump and Putin are aware of the situation and say NO.
Trump wants peace and Putin wants peace too, but will continue the war unless its aims aren't achieved.

Trump may be draining the swamp, but he's still got the blob to contend with, but they have no cards, and will get smacked.

Some people have a Unique way of putting things.
Emil is one of them.

Meanwhile...

Ukrainians are having a crack at Torestsk, trying to show they can still counter attack, and trying to take some mines.
(Notice the news at the start, Putin has removed war restrictions)

And Israels back in trouble with the ICJ

SHOCK Shift At The ICJ Worst Possible News For Israel!

- And not to mention US cut all intelligence to Ukraine because of Zelensky and Starmer / Macrons / Ursulas antics.

United States cuts off intelligence sharing with Ukraine, CIA director confirms
http://www.abc.net.au/news/2025-03-06/trump-zelenskyy-intelligence-sharing-war-ukraine-putin-russia/105016086

Obviously when Trump asked Starmer if he could fight Russia by himself a week ago he didn't get the message, they are just too invested to walk away, yet.

"SHOCK Shift At The ICJ Worst Possible News For Israel!"

Who cares what the ICJ says or does? Certainly not Israel. The very fact that people cheer the change in personnel to a more anti-Israel member shows that its far from unbiased.

To paraphrase someone else, "How many division have they got?"

Trump smackdown with Z-stein worked."

We'll ignore the racist nomenclature, shall we?. But of course it worked. Trump doesn't play around with these things but he had to drag Zelensky and the Europeans into something approaching the real world.

Paper-tiger.

Russia started the war with what was assumed to be the second best army in the world after the US. But they've been utterly humiliated by a third world country with barely a quarter of its population. Even before any western assistance of any real note arrived on the scene their attack on Kiev ended as a monumental debacle from which they've never really recovered.

They've lost 800,000 of their youth to immigration to avoid conscription and a similar number to the meat-grinder in the DonBass. The nation was already facing demographic Armageddon. These were the young men sorely needed to father the next generation in a declining population, and they are no more.

Russian industry has failed to keep up with their army's needs so they are buying munitions from North Korea and Iran and dragging WW2 surplus out of storage...even using donkeys for transport.

Sure their opponents are being supplied by the west but most of it is old technology. The Russians haven't really faced much of the west's best armaments and when they do they get smashed.

Poland is building a formidable force getting the best of US, Israeli and South Korean war technology plus building their own home-grown military industry. The Russian army, even with a big numerical advantage wouldn't survive a war with Poland.

Which is why Russia is no longer a menace for Europe/NATO and why Trump and the US want out. The Cold War is over. Russia lost. They tried to make a comeback and have lost that as well.

Europe will need to work out how to live with a weakened and grumbling Russia. But its no longer the US's problem .

China OTOH would have been looking on with interest. China has never really reconciled to what they consider the theft Siberia by the Tsar in the late 19th century. It would be clear to the Chinese that, if they ever decide to recover those lands, the Russia army won't be much of an obstacle.

......

Unless the Russian army had the backing of the USA. Just saying.

I've been going back over some of what I wrote earlier in the war to see what I got right, got wrong or misunderstood.

Back in September 2022 (note 2022) I wrote..."In the longer term, it is now apparent that NATO is no longer needed. The next Republican leader is likely to begin the process of pulling the US out of Europe."

Pretty chuffed at how prescient that was.

"Russia started the war with what was assumed to be the second best army in the world after the US. But they've been utterly humiliated by a third world country with barely a quarter of its population."

There's only 3 superpowers in the world mhaze.
And Russia are still advancing, with a quarter of the worlds nations including the US giving training and / or sending miltary equipment. If not for that, they would've capitalated in 3 weeks.

"Even before any western assistance of any real note arrived on the scene their attack on Kiev ended as a monumental debacle from which they've never really recovered."
- That's because you still cling onto BS and don't even understand what their aims were. They wanted to force Ukraine to the negotiating table, they never wanted a f---ing war.

"These were the young men sorely needed to father the next generation in a declining population, and they are no more."
- Do you know what the ratio of women to men are in Ukraine now?
20:1

Russian industry has failed to keep up with their army's needs so they are buying munitions from North Korea and Iran and dragging WW2 surplus out of storage...even using donkeys for transport.
- They're cheap and expendable.

"Sure their opponents are being supplied by the west but most of it is old technology. The Russians haven't really faced much of the west's best armaments and when they do they get smashed."
- What hasn't the West sent.

"Poland is building a formidable force getting the best of US, Israeli and South Korean war technology plus building their own home-grown military industry. The Russian army, even with a big numerical advantage wouldn't survive a war with Poland."
- Poland got their asses handed to them every other time, and they will get their asses handed to them again.
