Smoothie may not appreciate the cruel calculation. The eugenicist Genocidal Axis always knew conventional defeat of Russia was IMPOSSIBLE.

Why this apparently wasteful gambit at this particular moment, just before the UkroNazis are about to expire, and the Holy Land theatre is about to go up in flames??

Some is to expend some crack Russian special forces troops (every one counts among the highly trained warriors), to optically humiliate Russia a little more globally, and to raise the satanic energy in their own, which HAS been boosted in last week.

But in larger terms, it was always meant to go unconventional. You can sell it as “the last Ukro-American provocation,” a Hail Mary heave and whatnot. This is the cover.

Note the sheer panic of the slow-witted Germans, who all of a sudden find “no more funds” for 404, and demand the need for a thorough Nordstreams investigation (a beaming Uncle Lavrov publicly concurs!) and even do not find parts for German armor that wandered into Kursk!

Too late.

Events take their terrible course now. It is like exterminating 2 M Palestinians (most gone now) and hoping for a path back to comity with the civilized.

This ostentatious move into Kursk, replete with nazi paraphernalia, imported Anglo-Italian presstitutes to proudly document the aggression, the humiliation and kidnapping of civilians, nuclear terrorism, vast destruction of bridges, homes and infrastructure, and solemn support by the West — serves as detonator.

Like the zionists and Yanks in the Holy Land, insisting they want peace and to negotiate and to avoid a regional war, even as they raise the amount of child offering to Moloch and pour petrol on every country in the region. Their actions are sufficiently eloquent on both theatres. The Moshiach shall be raised, come what may. And the worse the better from their messianic perspective

⭕ ⚡️ Unobtainium

Colby essentially acknowledges the reality that, among many options, the US can choose one — and ONLY ONE — overseas war to fight.

However, he blinds himself to the reality that in order to prosecute this “ONE WAR”, it would be necessary for the US to effectively vacate every major American military base on the planet — there would be no other way to generate a force sufficient to even attempt war against Russia, China, or Iran.

And even though it would take at least a year to concentrate such a force in any of those putative theaters of battle, the US strategy will necessarily depend upon quick victory, which they cannot obtain.

And they simply cannot sustain a protracted high-intensity campaign against ANY of their adversary choices.

Defeat lurks behind every door in this game. And afterwards, the US will be effectively disarmed in terms of expeditionary warfare for at least a generation.

This is the cold hard reality of the situation at present, and I defy Colby or any of his fellow #EmpireAtAllCosts disciples to counter the many arguments I have made to that effect.

Vladimir Putin’s name cropped up in US media more than that of almost any other foreign leader in 2024, Sputnik has learned. The Russian president has been mentioned 16,300 times so far, outstripped only by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu (19,900 times) amid his government’s war against Hamas in Gaza.

By comparison, Putin’s name was brought up only 6,000 times in 2020, yet the ongoing NATO proxy war in Ukraine has prompted US outlets to pounce on his name in a media frenzy.

The same survey shows that while Chinese President Xi Jinping’s name was cited 3,400 times in 2024, US media has been on a roll when it comes to mentioning America’s oft-demonized adversary – the People’s Republic of China (PRC).

China was mentioned 245,000 times in the US media in January-July of this year, followed by Israel, which was mentioned 123,000 times, and then Russia, which cropped up 79,000 times. Ukraine was referenced 64,000 times throughout this US election year.

Generally, there is a trend for US media to flog the “China” narrative more than that of any other country every election cycle, with almost 400,000 mentions of China in 2020, and more than 210,000 in 2016.

Another go-to US adversary, Iran, was mentioned 36,000 times in 2024.

⭕ Hamas does not believe that the US sincerely wants to stop the Gaza War

As Israel continues to lay waste to the Gaza Strip after invading it more than ten months ago, bombing anything it labels a Hamas target to smithereens, the negotiations meant to achieve a ceasefire in this conflict are yet to bear fruit.

The United States’ efforts to help peacefully resolve the latest escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have been called into question by Hamas.

“The American administration is attempting to create a false sense of positivity, without any genuine intent to stop the war, merely aiming to buy time,” Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri told the Wall Street Journal.

The Hamas official made this remark as the White House boasted alleged progress in the ceasefire talks.

One senior US administration official even claimed on Friday that the talks reached an “endgame” and that the previous two days were “the most constructive 48 hours that we’ve had in this process in many months,” the newspaper noted.

Meanwhile, Hamas Political Bureau member Osama Hamdan told media that the movement no longer regards the United States as a reliable negotiator who can help achieve a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.

Hamas also snubbed the ceasefire negotiations that were slated to take place in Qatar this week, though a new round of talks is expected to take place in Egypt on August 21.

China’s restrictions on antimony exports will not only hit the US military industry, but will also make the Western photovoltaic industry even more desperate.

⭕ Irrespective of the reports from the US, British, Italian and other media who flock to Kursk without even requesting press accreditation visas from Russia, the situation is not good at all in the occupied parts of the oblast, where Ukrainian forces are practicing large-scale destruction.

When we were young, we always wondered, when watching documentaries on the Eastern Front of the Second World War, who was responsible for those awful images of mountains of corpses bulldozed and thrown into trenches or crevasses. We naively thought it was Jews and Roma who were the victims of the SS, but in reality it was the Russian, Polish and Hungarian victims of Bandera’s partisans and their descendants, or at least those who claim this heritage and behave in exactly the same way.
⭕ Sad news from the Gaza Strip: first case of polio in a child in 25 years.

Gaza’s health authorities accuse Israel of spreading disease and preventing medicines and first-aid supplies from entering the Strip.

The war in Gaza has already broken all records for violations of human rights, international law and custom, humanitarian law, the laws of war and all fundamental principles of human ethics.
⭕ The forests of the border regions of the Kursk oblast are no longer safe.
[When were they ever safe for western nazis over the last millennia?? I omit the 1,000th video of Ukies and NATO killed being hauled and stacked like cordwood]

⭕ ❗️The Russian Foreign Ministry calls on the UN and the IAEA to immediately condemn the provocative actions being prepared by the Kiev regime against Russian nuclear facilities and to prevent violations of nuclear safety

According to the ministry, Kiev’s provocations regarding nuclear facilities could result in a large-scale man-made disaster in Europe; the entire international community must understand the danger that the neo-Nazi Kiev regime poses to the European continent.

The Russian MOD has addressed the news of imminent nuclear provocations by nazi West on NPPs. See below

⭕ Ukraine’s mounting losses in Kursk region bear “broader impact” on conflict – reports

The Ukraine military’s heavy losses in Russia’s Kursk region are “particularly considerable” in light of the fact that the Kiev regime “has committed its most capable military assets to the area, including its scarce [UK-supplied] Challenger 2, T-80 and [German-¬made] Leopard tanks,” the Military Watch magazine has reported.

Speculation is rife that “the high attrition rates in [Ukraine’s] elite units in Kursk could have a broader impact on the war effort should these forces be fully cut off and neutralized,” the news outlet noted.

The Russian Defense Ministry earlier said that Ukraine has already lost up to 2,860 servicemen, 41 tanks, and 40 armored personnel carriers in the Kursk region.

On August 6, Ukrainian forces began an incursion into the Kursk region, which was described by Russian President Vladimir Putin as a large-scale provocation of the Kiev regime.

And the hair on the Indian women! Stronger than steel, lol. I’ve relatives with Indian blood (we’re muts in my part of Africa), and their hair is unbelievable, lush, like a river – the female equivalent of the lion’s mane. They could function as a garotte]
⭕ ❗️The Ukrainian army lost up to 2,010 soldiers during the past day, the Russian Defense Ministry reports

More statements from the ministry’s daily briefing:
🟠 The Russian army destroyed a Ukrainian Su-24 bomber and three helicopters, including two Mi-8s and a Mi-17;
🟠 Two enemy HIMARS missile launchers, four launchers and two radar stations of the Patriot complex, a launcher and a station of the IRIS-T missile complex, three MaxxPro combat armored vehicles, and two M113 armored personnel carriers were destroyed by Russian forces.
[what a haul from a single day. Somewhere in the Swamp, some Fat Cats of the MIC are weeping …]
⭕ ❗️The Russian Defense Ministry takes with due seriousness the information coming through independent channels about the Kiev regime preparing to strike the Kursk NPP

The purpose of this provocation is to accuse Russia of “self-shelling” the station to create grounds for striking Ukrainian nuclear power facilities, the body noted.

The ministry said it regards such actions by the Kiev regime, with the support of Western patrons, as a direct and obvious violation of the International Convention for the Suppression of Acts of Nuclear Terrorism.

If the Kiev regime begins to implement criminal plans aimed at creating a man-made disaster in the European part of the continent with radioactive contamination of vast territories, tough military and military-technical countermeasures will be immediately taken, the ministry added.

⭕ ☢️ IAEA leadership must assess the new attack on Zaporozhye nuclear power plant and warn Ukraine against further actions

These were the words of Russia’s acting permanent representative to the international organizations in Vienna.

🇷🇺 Russia does not rule out convening an extraordinary meeting of the IAEA Board of Governors following the latest Ukrainian attack on the plant.

Moscow is also calling on the agency to reveal who is behind the attack, saying silence will only encourage further attacks.

👉 Earlier, the plant’s press service said Ukrainian troops carried out a drone attack on the road used by Zaporozhye nuclear power plant workers, posing a direct threat to their safety.

According to the statement, IAEA inspectors present at the Zaporozhye NPP were informed about the Ukrainian attack and visited the site where the Ukrianian shell landed. |media|

⭕ ❗️Kiev’s losses in Russia’s the Kursk region during the past 24 hours amounted to up to 300 servicemen and 31 armored vehicles including 3 tanks, according to the Russian Defense Ministry

In total, since the beginning of the Kursk region offensive, Ukraine has lost up to 3,160 soldiers, 44 tanks and 43 armored personnel carriers, the ministry added.
[so if they were able to plug the holes and prevent further reinforcement, they still have about 10,000 more invaders to compost]

This seems at odds with the euphoria so many Ukraine cheerleaders have been expressing in recent days. 🤔 |media|

💠@Intel Slava Z:
⭕ 🇧🇬Once again, NATO military warehouses are burning.

On the night of August 15, in the suburbs of Sofia (Krivina), not far from the international airport, a large-scale fire broke out in warehouses in an industrial zone.

The fire started in a closed area guarded by the police, in the area of ​​hangars where cargo was stored that was supposed to be sent to Ukraine in August. In addition to various military cargo, the burned warehouses also contained UAVs (quadcopters) and ammunition for them.

The Bulgarian secret services are suppressing information about this fire in every possible way, since it occurred at a protected facility and concerned the sensitive topic of using Bulgaria as a hub for arms deliveries. Previously, to terrorists in Syria, today, to terrorists in Ukraine. |media|
