Hi Julian, are you planning to write another letter to President Putin? I’m not on first name basis with him so my best chance to ask him a question is through you, my proxy ;)
Do you mind asking him if Russia, China, perhaps Saudi Arabia or other allies would be willing to establish military “coalition of the willing” to protect people in Palestine, establish no-fly zone, put boots on the ground? I think public opinion globally would support it.
Had this worrying thought today - let's say some off-shoot of ISIS carries out a terrorist attack inside Russia resulting in major loss of civilian lives, what could happen then?
Plausibly, Russian government and public opinion will suspect CIA involvement, giving rise to pressure on Putin to retaliate against the USA. As USA will deny CIA involvement, the US public will likely see the Russian response as an unprovoked attack.
On other words, major potential for differences in perception to cause a very dangerous misunderstanding. Is it really true that US officials haven't spoken to their Russian counterparts in years?
It already happened. That was the Crocus bombing! And you saw what happened. In addition, Russia unlike the US has had a lot of terrorist attacks, at least some of them sponsored by the CIA. Russia always retaliates-- but not in the way the US expects. In judo, if your opponent punches you do not punch back. You do something else. It is the same in other martial arts. Never respond as they expect.
A diapered dementia patient and his vassal stooges trying to play chess with a Grand Master. It would be great fun to watch if only the imbeciles didn't have nukes!
A crazy guy with a sword facing a martial artist. This is the scenario rehearsed for in Japanese and Chinese martial arts . You stay out of reach and circle forcing him to circle. Swordsmen often move in straight lines.. Only master swordsman know how to fight in circles -- that is against multiple enemies at the same time. The crazy guy will always attack in straight lines. And overextend. Moving in circles you can take him from left or right his guard.
That seems to happen with some credit cards. Some people have said that the workaround is just to try the card a couple of times-- at different times.. It's a card processing error if you have one of the major cards say Visa or AMEX or something. It happens to me sometimes as well when I buy groceries. I might have to switch to a second card. But I find that the first card works elsewhere – or later that day. Of course, it's possible that you have been banned along with Putin!
The drug-addled teenage clown show continues. A very bad high school play. They just love posing for staged pictures. Always taking selfies and posting them on social media. They're just SO awesome, don't you think? They do.
I wish I could laugh along, but as you know, the joke's on us. And if we don't turn this nightmare around in the next few months . . . Thanks for the follow.
I don't think will turn it around in the next few months. Maybe not in a couple of years even. But we will make progress in setting the stage for monumental worldwide change. Working on that now in my Special Article.

It’s a long shot, I know.

Julian, I tried to invite you a coffee too, but I can't did it because the system didn't accept my card.

Give it a try – and let me know. If it doesn't work I'll put you on the mailing list anyway if I can get an email address for you!
After all, it's the thought that counts!
The Anglo-Americans gave themselves away when British Buffoon Boris Johnson told Zelensky not to sign a peace agreement with Putin two years ago.
The Anglo-Americans gave themselves away in 2014, and have been doing it consistently since them. The Anglo-American world is one big echo chamber.
Oh Julian, I want to buy you some coffee but I have the same problem as Volodya.
Never mind, you get the special article anyway.
