UKRAINE WAR DRAGS ON — WITH NO END IN SIGHT

… As long as Ukraine continues to resist, even in its weakened state, it forces Putin to pay a high cost in Russian aircraft, spent hi-tech missiles, and military casualties, not to mention a damaged image at home and abroad. His initial claims of self-defense are being swept away by the images of every major city they contest being rocked by exploding artillery shells and civilian casualties. It looks increasingly unlikely that Russia will be able to capture the entire country this way. Putin still hopes Ukraine will give up early, but that would only happen if it runs out of ammunition, and so far the US and NATO have kept up the resupply. Failure is not an option for Russia as this is the first step in their long-planned move toward domination, but Putin is sly and will likely find some kind of temporary compromise along the way.

There will be no going back to the naive days of Trump hoping to “build a good relationship” with Putin, Kim Jong Un and Xi Jinping, although almost the entire back bench of conservative pundits have come to Putin’s defense—naively assuming that anyone the evil globalists are against must be on our side. This week’s missive from Martin Armstrong took this irrational idea to new lows as he even defends Xi Jinping as well as Putin just because the evil globalist financier George Soros is calling for their overthrow.

Perhaps Armstrong, like other conservatives, has failed to see how these same globalists downplayed the Russian and Chinese threat all through the cold war years, and facilitated technology transfers to build up both Russia and China as future enemies. These defenders of Putin haven’t even begun to consider the complexities of globalist thinking or the sophisticated manner in which they play both sides of an issue. Armstrong begins by casting Putin as the victim of our evil globalists, without recognizing that Russia and China are competing predators seeking control of a future NWO. Neither are out to save us from the Anglo-American globalists.

This war has really nothing to do with Ukraine for this country has been used as cannon fodder to overthrow Putin – the second target in this New World Order. The first was the removal of Trump and the last will be the removal of Xi Jinping. This is a major effort to cause regime change in Russia. The sanction has been so outrageous that they are indeed an act of outright war.

Notice how he tries to link conservative’s support for Trump against the false claims of “Russian collusion” with his inference that Putin and Xi are equally innocent.

The strategy to remove all three has been in play and you can tell the very same tactics are used. They DEMONIZE the leader in order to defeat him and to cause people to hate him.

-But for completely different reasons. They demonized Trump because he represented the tip of the spear of American displeasure with Democrat and globalist politics in Washington. For 10 years, globalists never pushed for regime change in Russia under Putin. The globalists only recently started demonizing Putin so as to be positioned properly in opposing to Russia when WWIII begins. As I pointed out last week, when nuclear war with Russia and China got closer, the globalists knew they had to switch from downplaying the threat to a stance of publicly “warning” of the Russian and Chinese threat, so they don’t get blamed for their role in building these two enemies when war broke out. The only reason this pivot started early, was to facilitate their smear of Trump as in collusion with Russia.

The globalists have still not been attacking Xi and China yet, to any serious degree. Armstrong takes on the defense of Xi only because Soros called for the overthrow of both Xi and Putin to “prevent WWIII”—which is a silly notion. Even if these evil men could be replaced there will always be evil replacements waiting in the wings as necessary.

Lindsey Graham is also a Neocon who has outright called for Russians to assassinate Putin. All we are getting now is propaganda pushing the agenda of regime change in Russia… The Ukrainians are even naming Alexander Bortnikov, the Russian Director of the Federal Security Service and a member of Putin’s inner circle, as a successor to the president.

This is more “fog of war” propaganda. Putin has an ironclad hold on power, just like Stalin did. If the Ukrainians really thought Bortnikov was a threat to Putin, they wouldn’t spread this story to the world and alert Putin to the danger.

They are seeking the conquest of Russia but forcing the people to rise up and overthrow their government because of the sanctions.

Nonsense. Unarmed people can never rise up against an all-controlling government. Armstrong buys into the phony “fall of the Soviet Union” where it only appeared that popular dissent brought down the Soviets. They faked their own demise to get Western aid and trade, just as they did during Lenin’s day.

Biden even threatened China according to the White House stating that serious “implications and consequences” will follow if Beijing decides to give material aid to Russia to support its war in Ukraine. The White House claimed that Biden laid out for Mr. Xi the punishments the United States will inflict upon China and it too would pay a similarly heavy price if it supported Putin.

Transcripts of the call show no evidence of US specific threats to China. Both Biden and Xi know the US can’t do anything about China. It’s too late. Around 80% of US high tech and consumer goods come from the Chinese, so there is no will to embargo China when it would mean killing our own economy. Trump’s Tariffs on China didn’t inhibit Chinese trade at all, but only made US importers pay more.

We are looking at the beginning of World War III. In order to pull off this Great Reset, they needed to remove Trump, Putin, and Xi in hopes of then subordinating both China and Russia to the New World Order with the United Nations in control.

Wrong again. This is not the beginning of WWIII, and the globalists not only don’t want Putin and XI removed, they need these enemies to start the war. Besides, Russia and China will never allow themselves to be subordinate to Western globalists. They despise the West.

The reason the globalists need WWIII with its nuclear strike on US military forces is to drive Americans into giving up our sovereignty and joining a militarized global government. Nothing else will do that—neither Covid nor global climate change tyranny will force the US into a global government. Only war will do that. That is why they have been building up Russia and China for years—to make sure this war happens and that Russia and China strike first (given an appropriate trigger event). Why would the globalists want to take out the two dictators who will pull the trigger on WWIII?

As I explained last week, Ukraine isn’t the proper trigger event since we don’t have a legitimate excuse to intervene (as opposed to S. Korea where we have thousands of US troops). In fact, the US and NATO have been so obvious in their adamant statements that they will not intervene in Ukraine with armed forces, that it is viewed by Putin as a partial green light to invade.

Why this Won’t Lead to Nuclear War
Russia’s talk of using nuclear weapons is more saber rattling to help ensure the US and NATO won’t intervene. There would be no point in Putin launching a limited nuclear strike—it would only invite a massive retaliation. And just to make sure Putin understands that, British and French ballistic missile subs are all out on patrol, safe from attack and waiting for orders.

In nuclear war, it’s either all-in or don’t shoot at all. You either take out all the enemy’s armed forces in a nuclear first strike or you don’t use them at all. Anything in between doesn’t stop the other side’s ability to retaliate. Right now, Putin doesn’t have the forces to occupy all of Ukraine, let alone all of Europe and the US if he did use all his nukes to decapitate US missile silos and major bases. That still leaves a lot of conventional forces arrayed against him.

As I have long said, that is why Russia and China are waiting until both are ready to join forces in an all-out war against the West. It’s the height of naiveté to think that Russia and China are our friend just because they also hate the Western globalist controllers.

Some credible information in leaking out about the ethnicity of many Russian casualties—in one hospital half aren’t RussianKamil Galeev tweeted this:

We don’t have aggregated data for the entire Russian army. But we can get some idea of who fights in Ukraine from this list of wounded Russian soldiers lying in Rostov hospital. More than half are clearly Dagestani.”

He has photos of the lists of the wounded. This means that Russia is not only using raw recruits but poorly trained troops from Muslim regions of the former Soviet Union like Dagestan. This may well explain why Russian ground forces have not been as effective.
