'The bottom line is this: at this point in time, NATO needs any distraction or, even better, as much chaos as possible to change the narrative and hope to use that distraction to regroup and try to find an out from the abject defeat NATO is facing in the Ukraine.
So don’t seek a military rationale for a dirty bomb attack, look ONLY for optics.
What else could the Hegemony try to do to delay the inevitable?
The most often mentioned options are:
Blow up a damn and put thousands of people into a flood-zone
Rain a huge number of missiles at Kherson or any other liberated major city
More diversionary/terrorist attacks inside Russia
Again, the goal here would not be any real military advantage, but the only two things NATO is really interested in now:
Optics (the Ukrainians are winning! the Ukrainians are winning! The Ukrainians are winning!)
Chaos (both as a means and as a goal in itself)
By the way, there are plenty of folks in Russia who fully realize that the Hegemony is “losing it”.
Why? Because some are saying that attacks on the NS1/NS2 and Crimea Bridge have shown that Neocons which run the Hegemony are capable of anything, including trying to assassinate Putin. This would be an especially attractive option if it could be done with some (even thin) “plausible deniability”.
So are we about to see a dirty bomb go off somewhere in the Ukraine or Russia?
My best guess is that no, not after Shoigu and Gerasimov called their western counterparts and spelled out to them what the consequences of such an action might be (the Russians know exactly where this dirty bomb is being designed and manufactured, they know who is doing this work, and they know what the current stage of the project it. Of course, they could bomb/strike these locations, but that would risk releasing the nuclear material into the air, thus exactly creating the dirty bomb the Nazis are working on.
Now that the Russians have warned the entire planet (via this intervention at the UNSC) nobody besides the doubleplusgoodshiteaters in Zone B will believe that “Russia done it”.
So will “they” do it? I don’t know. I hope not. I think not. But I know that they are capable of anything, including a dirty bomb or any other conceivable atrocity (including biowarfare, by the way).
Russia wants to build a stable and safe Eurasian continent as part of a multi-polar world. The Hegemony just wants to destroy anything standing in its way. In this sense, it has a huge advantage as destroying is always much easier than building or even preserving something.

Whatever distraction Nato is trying to push, nothing escapes the energy issue. And it is between expensive and cheap energy that will decide which direction the EU will have to take.
ReplyDeleteRight now, their only option is expensive energy from USA or other Asian countries like China and India, and even Saudi Arabia, using cheap Russian sourced oil and gas and sold to Europe at high profits.
China is even reselling USA supplied LNG, under a long term contract, to Europe without even the gas carriers having to go to China first. And at a good price for profitability. Perfectly legal and above board! China is saying - Thank you USA!
China actually should say - Thank you Trump!
ReplyDeleteHis 'Art of the Deal' gave China this valuable gift of making money from thin air. Please do not say it also backfired on the USA. The USA only makes deals with countries that are 'easy to win'. Like so much winning over the trade war.
And not to forget they are winning every day in Ukraine. I mean the Ukraine side. So much winning that the world is getting tired of knowing. Why need to talk about a sure thing, right?
Did Trump has a cut for this treachery against the USA?
ReplyDeleteTrump is fighting for his freedom. They want to put him in jail. Has this ever happened before I wonder? An USA ex-President going to jail. Maybe under their new 'Rule of Law' this is a new gimmick. But it may backfire if the Republicans takes power.
ReplyDeleteThere are discreet accusations against Obama, Hillary Clinton, Biden and his son by Trump. This is getting hilarious. It is a circus without any doubt!
They raided Trump's house because Trumps kept all the top secret documents of Hunter Biden and other Democrats to be used against them when necessary.
ReplyDeleteDonald Trump said he will deal with Hillary Clinton and some other former
ReplyDeleteUS Cabinet Members. But he did not do so during his tenure.
Did Trump chicken out ?
