On the panel on Fox News Sunday one of the liberals was discussing Biden's moves to give Ukraine long range missiles and land mines and forgiving their debt and excused it by claiming it was just to give Ukraine leverege when Trump comes into office and pushes a negotiated settlement.

Nonsense. This was a serious escalation of the war and how, pray tell, would it make Russia more compliant? If anything it makes Russia more belligerent. Anybody who knows anything about the Russian psychology would know that.

No, this is designed to get us so deep in the war Trump will be unable to end it.

I have said pretty nearly since the beginning that the New World Order types want to bleed Russia dry, to force Putin out and install a compliant government that will allow the big corporations, the banking conglomerates, etc. to take over the Russia economy and milk all the oil and gas money out of it. They are in the process of creating a world government and a fascistic form of socialism and Russia is something of a throwback, one that stands in their way.

After the fall of the Soviet Union was saw this; carpetbaggers showing up to pick the carcass. George Soros was one such. The Russian people elected Putin precisely because they were very angry at the treatment they received by the West; they had no desire to be a colony of western pseudo-imperialism.

So they have charted their own course since and a good deal of the insanity that infects the West has not penetrated into Russia. The trans movement, for instance, or the modern celebration of homosexuality is largely absent in Mother Russia. Also, Russia has retained economic independence and not joined into the economic borg that has been metastasizing over the last few decades. And Russia is clinging tto her traditional faith, the Orthodox Church, while Christianity is disappearing in the West, to be replaced by a kind of humanistic trans-humanism and Scientism (a religious belief in science, as opposed to science being the use of logic and reason to understand the physical world.)

Ifthe New World Order is to come Russia has to be broken, like a wild mustang. That is what this war is about and always has been. Russia invaded Ukraine, no auestion, and that was wrong and it should have been met with strong resistance, but it only happened because the U.S. was squeezing Russia like a winemaker squeezes a tub of grapes. There were multiple pressures on Russia from multiple directions. American forces had moved right up to their borders, in POland, in the Baltic states, and in near border zones like Hungary or the Czec Republic or even Turkey. American influence was seen in Georgia, in Azerbaijan, and elsewhere. And of course until not so long ago we actually had troops in Iraq and in Afghanistan. Russia felt encircled.

We tried to build an oil and gas pipeline in Georgia to cut the Russians out and supply all the energy needs for Europe. That would have wrecked the Russia economy, which is why they invaded Georgia, and no small part of why they invaded Ukraine.

Threats to expand NATO and the E.U. into Ukraine added fuel to the fire. Oh,and the fact the U.S. kept operating biological labs ostensibly to destroy the old Soviet biological weapons in Ukraine but which were active a quarter century later had to bother them, especially when it became clear the U.S. had a hand in the creation of covid 19 in China.

And the Ukrainians had damed the Dneiper river to cut off water to Crimea, which Russia had annexed. Oh, and they regularly shelled Crimea. Russia annexed Crimea based on the fact most Crimeans were Russian speaking and there was a vote (probably bogus, granted) to join the Russian Federation. Ukraine had been suppressing Russians, especially the use of the Russian language and the Orthodox church.

Now, I am not saying the Russians were in the right in invading Ukraine. They were not. But I can see why they d it, why the average Russian supported the war.

PUtin is, of course, an opportunist and he saw how weak Biden was and how easy it would be.

So now Joe Biden, after dragging his feet on policy, maintaining a simmer and not a boil, has now brought up the heat just before Trump takes office with promises to settle it. To me it is clear he wants this war to be so entrenched that Trump cannot resolve it. I think that is partly personal pique (he wants Trump to fail) but also because those who run Biden want this war to continue as it is exhausting Russia and bankrupting her.

I cannot imagine how anyone who knows anything about the region can fail to see this but they apparently do.

The North Koreans are involved now, and the scuttlebut is South Korea may go in on the side of the Ukrainians. China is looming there too. We are on the precipice of the Big One.
