    Ishchenko : “Meaningless initiatives”
    https://alternatio.org/articles/articles/item/156394-bessmyslennye-initsiativy
    “I have never been concerned about the peace negotiations between Moscow and Kiev. I was not concerned even when they were not planned, but were taking place (as in March 2022 in Istanbul), and even when they resulted in the signing of specific agreements, such as the first and second Minsk agreements, some of which, if fully implemented, would have been catastrophic for Russia. For example, it was clear that in…

    Elena Kamburova -“Love and Separation”. Music by I. Schwartz, words by B. Okudzhava.

    “The music video features footage from the film “The Captivating Star of Happiness, directed by V. Motyl. The song “Love and Separation” (Road Song) was originally written for the film “We Were Not Married in a Church,” directed by Boris Vasilyevich Tokarev in 1982. After the film’s release, the song was included in the repertoires of many famous performers, and it took on a life of its own.”

    “A blonde in red and an exploded Zelensky: The Economist’s “prophetic” 2026 cover deciphered”
    https://www.kp.ru/daily/27743.5/5170627/

    “The British magazine ‘The Economist’ published its traditional forecast for the coming year with a cover story rebus, a favorite among conspiracy theorists.

    This time the cover looks very alarming: a military whirlwind is sweeping across the entire globe.

    In addition to a host of symbols—from combat robots to a giant cake—there are images of Trump, Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping, and Zelensky surrounded by explosions.

    Together with Alexander Artamonov, a professor at the Diplomatic Academy of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs , we explored “the future” of ‘The Economist’, considered a mouthpiece for the Rothschilds (they finance the magazine)…

    “The Moment of Truth: The West Confronts Russian Military Advances”
    by Thierry Meyssan https://www.voltairenet.org/article223118.html
    “For two years, we in the West have been living under the myth that we will bring Russia to its knees and bring Ukraine into the European Union and the Atlantic Alliance. We will try Vladimir Putin and make Russia pay. Today, this myth is colliding with reality: Moscow now possesses devastating weapons, unparalleled in the West. They make any hope of victory for our coalitions impossible. We will have to acknowledge our mistake. This is not about apologizing for our errors, but about freeing ourselves from them.”

    Interesting piece by Big Serge:
    https://bigserge.substack.com/p/living-dangerously
    … ” The key point here, however, is that the concept of Ukrainian victory has been completely transformed. There is now no real discussion of how Ukraine can win on the ground. For the Ukrainian bloc, the war is no longer a contest against the Russian Army, but a more abstract contest against Russia’s willingness to incur strategic costs. Rather than preventing Russian capture of the Donbas, the west is testing how much Putin is willing to pay for it. If history is any guide, a game predicated on outlasting Russia’s strategic endurance and willingness to fight is a very bad game to play indeed.”

    Brian Berletic: The future world order depends on the proxy war in Ukraine
    https://aftershock.news/?q=node/1553242
    “The gradual advance of Russian troops in the Donbas is likely to lead to the operational encirclement of Ukraine’s last major defense line, its “belt defense line.” This could not only determine the outcome of the war, but also shape the emerging global order…
    The coming months will be a turning point, not only in terms of the ongoing conflict in Ukraine, but also in terms of the global order that is being shaped by a larger conflict in which the United States is facing not only Russia, but also the entire multipolar world.”

    Author Mike1975′ comment:
    “In the face of the loss of sole control over a number of key technologies, it seems doubtful that the West will be able to achieve victory. If we compare the generally struggling and on the verge of decline USA, the rapidly deteriorating EU, and the resurgent Russia, with the rapidly growing China, India, and Brazil.

    Experts who not so long ago said that the USA had time to strangle China and Russia (in different sequences) were 15 years late, having slept through the most interesting part. After Putin’s speech in Munich, nothing clicked for them, and that was a very good thing.

    The endgame is close !”

    Hafez Shirazi’s poem :
    “If God Invited You To A Party”

    If God
    Invited you to a party
    And said,

    ‘Everyone
    In the ballroom tonight
    Will be my special
    Guest…’

    How would you then treat them
    When you
    Arrived?

    Indeed, indeed!

    And I know
    There is no one in this world

    Who
    Is not upon
    His Jeweled Dance
    Floor

    “Today marks Hafez Day, a celebration of one of Iran’s greatest poets whose words of love, mysticism, and human insight continue to captivate readers around the world.”
