Can anyone in the USA imagine winning a war? Which they have not done for decades.........except for Grenada!

How would the USA act if they ever won a war..............they would lay down conditions exactly as the Russians have done.

Might I remind you 'sheepie' people that Russia did not start this war!

USA starts wars and then 'runs away when it gets tough!

Go ahead USA. PULL out all your despicable bases from Europe/take with you your disgusting MacDonalds etc.

Around every American 'war bases' there is corruption.

SO do abandon your bases in Europe. Which I guarantee they will not.

Thank you, Jenny...

But i agree with the cynical tone of Julian's article...

It is clear to anybody with brains and or sensing capabilities, that the real battle is the battle in WORDS and NARRATIVES, reinforced by the Media in the West which are still owned by the Monster.

But the target are those voters who support Trumps MAGA revolution and those are susceptible for the veiled lies in the media and for the Lies that are spread by the Zionist movement among the Christian supporters of the Republican party. So Trump must be careful what he says and how he says it.

I am a bit more positive on the most recent developments. The 100 days are now almost over. May 1 (or a day earlier) Trump will say that Zelensky (and the evaporating European warmongers) are NOT wanting Peace, but war and that Russia at least is ready for peace.

He will get a lot of counter voices in the Media, but he is president and he will say: We stop support for the war against Russia in Ukraine. (He will use other words but that is what he will mean). Each attempt to force him to change his direction, he will answer with removing more support for Europe, that is controlled from the City of London, where the Monster is hidden, that was running the British Empire and the US until Januari... after his MAGA Revolution started.

He will start to end sending weapons and Money to Ukraine. Next he will stop Intelligence support and probably Starlink. After that will follow: The (new) Base in Romania (when he has enough power to force the Pentagon to do that, because his 'United States secretary of defense', Pete Hegseth, appears to have been swallowed by the Zionist Tentacle of the Monster.

Well, we will see...

Minor quibble:

'Today, the Russians took back the last village in Ukraine."

I think you meant "Russia"or Kursk Oblast".

Watching the USA try to do diplomacy ranges from madly hysterical to intensely painful. Somehow having two New York City real estate developers, one of whom is so crooked he could hide behind a corkscrew is fascinating.

Neither of the two New York City real estate developers seem to know anything about the countries or regions that they are dealing with. Steve Witkoff, given five years or so to learn his subject areas and a little about how one does diplomacy might do alright.

The fact that the White House or State keep talking about their contact with Moscow or Berlin, only to have this denied shows Donny's ineptitude. I suspect it is driving Witkoff crazy.

You and Chappie are on the money. The RUAF will keep grinding away until the Ukie military is destroyed. Russia must inflict a humiliating defeat of Ukronazistan, ZATO🇫🇲🇮🇱 and the USA🇺🇸.

This flag 🇺🇸 should be upside down.

I think you are exactly right Julian- keep Trump talking. Russia keeps advancing. America & Europe continue advancing to the debt wall & western financial system collapse.

Second in importance only to the Pope

The Pope’s funeral began with a circus, literally.

Shortly after the Prince of Wales and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer had paid their respects to Pope Francis’ coffin, they took their seats to begin the funeral. Everything should have gone fine as they were followed by US President Donald Trump and immediately after him — Vladimir Zelensky. But as soon as Zelensky entered the square, the crowd began to applaud.

Why would that have been? No one could understand why. Perhaps he had been confused with someone else?

But no one had got anything wrong. More than 130 foreign delegations had gathered for the Pope’s funeral on Saturday. And these were mostly Western politicians.

And Western politicians’ admiration for Zelensky is already hammered into their subcortex. They have been programmed to start applauding Zelensky whenever he makes a public appearance. And so it went: Zelensky appeared on the square and the applause kicked off.

I should like to have said to them: “Gentlemen, show some respect for the deceased. Do not forget the reason why you have gathered there”.

Zelensky will have had two meetings with Trump. One before, and one after the funeral.

Scary stupid if Putin agrees to this.

I hope Helmer is proven wrong in this regard.

Russia has America, Europe & Ukraine on the ropes. Why would they help their enemy recover and strengthen for a bigger war in the future?

Well, Nick, because the Monster Trump is fighting is fighting back in Words, Narratives and Lies, trying to steal as much voters as possible that way, so he will lose the Mid terms and at least the MAGA movement will lose the 2028/2029 elections.

Just saying,

I don't agree that it will end this year. Not unless Trump actually does stop providing armaments and intelligence. He certainly won't do the first, because of the money involved for the defence industry, and he won't do the second, either, I suspect, because the opportunity to do both had passed. Also, because he's full of shit.

THE END OF THE WICKED WITCH OF THE WEF ⁉️

TOXIC FEMININITY IN THE TOP OF THE EU:

Ursula von der Leyen Is Becoming a Liability. Diplomats Are Demanding Her Resignation !

🇨🇭🫕DIE WELTWOCHE ->https://weltwoche.ch/daily/toxische-weiblichkeit-an-der-eu-spitze-ursula-von-der-leyen-wird-zur-hypothek-diplomaten-fordern-ihren-abgang/

-

EU politics is clearly in crisis. In the West, the trade dispute with the US. In the East, the Ukraine conflict and an escalating confrontation with Russia

– the sanctions are also a form of trade war –

plus an ongoing, not exactly exhilarating, showdown with the Middle Kingdom.

-

Internally:

Disunity, division, constant harassment of a member state like Hungary, which insists on its sovereignty and its democratic rights of participation. A Giorgia Meloni, who is breaking away from the anti-Trump formation and flirting with the US President. Trouble also with recalcitrant Switzerland.

The fish stinks, as the unashamedly put it, from the head.

The EU head of The Monster-Tentacle is personified in Commission President von der Leyen. A current example:

When Trump says "deal," she says "no deal." In the Ukraine peace process, the EU is backpedaling.

-

The whole thing, of course, has a history that doesn't speak well for von der Leyen's diplomatic skills or states-womanly stature. She interfered in the US election campaign and resolutely sided with Biden. A no-go with consequences. Economically, things aren't looking particularly rosy either, and the self-proclaimed stance against Trump is certainly of no use in the trade dispute. Add to that tendencies toward a super-surveillance state and ongoing struggles with democracy. EU diplomats are openly threatening to withdraw Hungary's voting rights.

Also unforgettable are her coronavirus shenanigans, secret messages, and refusal to provide transparency about backroom deals.

-

In short:

The EU is in a deplorably poor state. In any normal country, one would question whether the leadership is still the right one. But the EU is not a state, and certainly not a normal one. nevertheless, it is said in diplomatic circles that high-ranking EU officials increasingly consider von der Leyen toxic. A resignation could unblock many things.

A change at the top would at least open up the opportunity for European politics to become more diverse and open again – toward both the West and the East.

An interesting thought.

Is that number of dead is Ukrainian dead according to the Russian MOD for Kursk alone, or for the whole war?

"Today, the Russians took back the last village in Ukraine. Official Ukrainian losses are over 75,000 — which means probably as many as 95.000 since the Russians always understate — they count only intact dead bodies— and a lot of the bodies are in pieces."

Did you mean "Today, the Russians took back the last village in Russia held by Ukraine."

Nice looking cats.

Kursk alone.

Overall Ukrainian casualties probably range from 500K to 1.4M with higher figures, probably above 1M, being more likely. I "think" these figures include killed and badly wounded but given figures like the Kursk ones, it may just be killed.

We are beginning, in the last 3 or 4 months,to see/hear reports of women soldiers on the front lines in what looks like standard infantry roles.
