I have been waiting for this shoe to drop. Saving Israel for last. The Fed, then China, then Ukraine, now Israel.
Do we agree Epstein was tied with Mossad through Maxwell? How about 9/11, the Epstein painting of Bush toppling jenga towers? Israel benefitted immensely post 9/11. The Awan spying case? Israel has been up to no good decades.
So how would you punish Israel? Trump could never do it publicly. There is no way to get the optics right. So you have it done when Biden is the face of the country. You give Iran a few billion, knowing they are immediately gonna turn around and use it to fund Hamas. Iran has been doing this for fucking ever.
What does that give Trump? He comes back and saves the day for Israel, after they have been knocked down a peg. He then also has ammunition to fuck over Iran, punishing them for nuclear deal shenanigans. The world is not going to have any issues with very harsh treatment of Iran in the coming years.
We were waiting for this. Israel has declared a fucking war. This isn’t some small thing. This is a proof.
I don’t believe in coincidences. Ukraine is own the downhill side. Peace treaty and giving up the Donbass to Russia is due anytime. Does anyone think it’s a coincidence that as soon as Ukraine starts to wrap up, Israel kicks off? Bullshit that’s coincidence. And it’s no coincidence that this is the worst possible scenario for Biden as well. He looks like the jackass that just paid Iran to attack Israel.
Who is still gonna be fighting next year? You think Ukraine is gonna have any bodies left a year from now? It’s been a massacre. They are yanking 50 year old men off the streets. More than half of the vehicles they have been given are burned out hulks, they are transporting troops in mini vans and pickup trucks. They have no aircraft. The Abrams they are being given are going to be destroyed as soon as they use them.
It’s been 140 billion dollars, 18 months, and Ukraine has “taken back” 3 villages. Less than 1/100th of the captured land has been taken back in 18 months. And it’s cost them everything they have. They haven’t even reached the first russian defense line, and there is 3 of them. All they are doing is driving into Russia mines and drones. It’s absurd. The only reason they haven’t given up for a peace treaty is because the US won’t let them and keeps sending them dollars.
Unless NATO starts WW3, Ukraine is over. Russia owns the Donbass and nothing short of total invasion by hundreds of thousands of NATO forces, aircraft, and vehicles is going to change that. They have air superiority. It’s over.
Ukraine can keep “fighting”’for another year, if by fighting you mean sending men and vehicles in peace meal to get blown up by mines or drones 5 miles before they even get to the first Russian line.
I don't think this is any reflection of the current state of the war. Ukrainian armor has been operating behind the Russian line of defenses. Small spots, but the breach has happened.
I just read an assessment that basically neither Ukraine or Russia is happy with the situation. And I think I agree with it.
Russia because Ukraine is still advancing Ukraine because the advance is painful and slow.
Russia understands they will be fighting next year is currently saving a lot its missiles for winter, where the are going to do another attack on Ukraine's energy sector.
The Russia Black Sea fleet just left Crimea due to constant attacks. which means less attacks on Ukraine's grain trade. https://www.businessinsider.com/russian-milblogger-difficult-accept-russia-moved-its-black-sea-fleet-2023-10
They have been small breaches of the line and Ukraine's current strategy is widen the lanes for further attack. They breached the line in September and took Robotyne which left them 15 miles from Tokmak. It's on the second defense line near Zaporizhzhia and is a logistics hub for Crimea https://thehill.com/policy/defense/4221974-ukraine-breaks-russias-main-defensive-line-with-armor-as-forces-make-critical-advances/
Let's see what happens with the city of Tokmak in the next 6 weeks. If they are fighting there in December, we will see a lot of fighting in the next year. Russia has been racing to reinforce Tokmak, but also Russia officers families are said to be freeing the area according to the Mayor of Russia held Melitopol.
