Ukraine War - The Big Farce in Kursk

 Western media are blaring about the great invasion into Russian territory as a big offensive, a big victory, a big move to show that Zelensky is still capable to striking back. Practically every western media, main or social media, were having an orgasm. Putin is in trouble and the Ukraine War is now at a new turning point. BBC, CNN etc etc are all cheering and delirious. This is how the propaganda war is being played up. A few thousand Ukrainians plus NATO mercenaries opening up a new front away from the main war zone, hit a few defenceless villages and called it a great victory.

Putin is not going to be distracted from his systematic annihilation of Ukrainian troops in the eastern front. Exhausted, hungry, running out of ammo, low in morale, defeated in every count, surrendering whenever they could, the collapse of the eastern front is a matter of time. 

The small incursion with 3 brigades in Kursk is just that. Without a big force backing its incursion into Russia, without massive artillery pieces, without air cover, 20 dated F16s if all got airborne, is not going to do much, likely to be shot down in no time. The ground troops would soon be surrounded and taken out at Putin's own time. This is not like the landing at Inchon or Normandy when a huge force was gathered to mount a big scale counter offensive.

The Americans could provide all the support for a propaganda war on paper, in the media. But nothing would change the nature of the war. Russia has overall supremacy in all fronts. With the bulk of the Ukrainian troops bogged down in the tunnels in the eastern front, where is Zelensky going to find the soldiers and ammunition to sustain another front? Unless NATO is all ready for action. It was reported that NATO has amassed 800,000 troops to invade Russia. Bring it on. 

Russia would no longer have to hold back its horses and would let them run all over Europe. Now, would that be nice? Are the Europeans that dumb to want to bring about the destruction of Europe when they could have live in peace? Are they that mindless and weak to be forced into a total war with Russia and to be lighted up by nuclear weapons? For what? 

With this reckless and silly incursion into Russian territory to disturb some villagers, Zelensky is as good as inviting the Russians to give him a big bashing. Every Russian leader would be telling Putin not to hold back anymore. The little devils in Kiev are asking for it. This is the insanity of little Mickey Mouse thinking it is almighty and would take down an elephant. Never underestimate the stupidity of a clown.

Is Zelensky thinking that he is Napoleon reincarnated? Even Napoleon was defeated and had to crawl back to nurse his wound in the island of St Helena.

Cheating, like purple faces, can be explained away...but still cheating

 Soon we will have experts engaged to tell everyone that 'turning purple' has nothing to do with performance. And so, the circus will keep on performing while the spectators just enjoying the foolishness, which is the Olympics.

Just dump the Olympics and all other world bodies beholden to the Anglo-Saxon Whites. BRICS must start their own formation of such bodies. I am heartened that BRICS has now started its own 'energy exchange' and 'metals exchange' and setting its own pricing and away from the US$. It may be a slow start, but perseverance wins the day.

BRICS countries control the energy and metals sectors by and large, the most important for industrialization, and moving away from the control of London or New York is good for their members.

Russia, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Iran and several African oil producers are all in BRICS. African countries, including Brazil, are global sources of essential metals for global industries. Therefore, the global trade in them is no small potato and will be detrimental to the US$ not playing a part. The USA and the West can ignore the writing on the wall, but they will panic when the shit hits the fan. Just like ignoring China's rise and concentrating on fighting terrorism, thinking that the Chinese are just to donkeymen to be pushed around, being identified as just good for working as cooks and laundrymen.

Now, the USA and the West are trying desperately to contain China's rise, an exercise in futility when the Chinese are now in control of global manufacturing and all the resources needed for industrialization.

Trying to lure back manufacturing to the USA is hitting a wall without the raw materials now in the hands of the Chinese. Building up infrastructures now is too little too late and producing products too expensive to compete with China is a fool's endeavor. Trying to win a battle when the war is already lost is what the USA and the West are struggling to do.

Anglo-Saxon colonizers were intent on keeping the colored people they colonized, backward, poor and easy to control

 On the surface NGOs are all angelic entities, set up to provide help to the poor and downtrodden. Why did the USA want to help humankind, when throughout the centuries, the Anglo-Saxon colonizers were intent on keeping the colored people they colonized, backward, poor and easy to control. Is the USA really that humanistic, funding all those NGOs and wanting nothing in return?

The Pilgrims that landed in America were also angelic, with promoting Christianity to Native American Indians supposed to be their main objective. Beneath that angelic religious piety lies a sinister motive. Taking the land of the Native Indians in exchange for the Bible turns out to be their pre-occupation.

What did the Native American Indians gain from religion? What did they lose forever in exchange? The lost their land and have to live in concentration camps to prevent them from threatening the Whites, on the pretext of protecting them.

Abraham Lincoln was said to be the much-admired President that abolished Black slavery. Digging deeper into the act reveals a more sinister motive. The Confederates needed more manpower enlistment to fight the civil war against the North, the Union, and the purpose of ending slavery was to enable the Confederates to gather the enlistment of the Blacks to fight in the war. Slaves do not fight in a war when they have no interest in the land and also, they belong to someone, their master.

However, after the civil war ended, it was reported that the Blacks suffered even worse treatment by the Whites. If Black slavery already ended and they have rights, what other rights was Martin Luther King fighting for? Black rights are also basically human rights. So, does ending slavery really gave the Blacks their rights? Think about it!

Building factories in America to compete with China? What is the cost?

 Earlier today I visited the site 'Inside China Business' and watched the video titled 'America's factory boom now a bust as China cuts off graphite sales, likely to push tariff repeals'.

'Made in USA' EVs, one industry alone, is already stuttering after all the song and dance that Biden is making about how the USA is trying to lure EV manufacturing back to the country with a factory building boom going on. Even foreign manufacturing icons like TSMC and Samsung are jumping on the factory building frensy bandwagon, with all the subsidies thrown in for them.

The reality is that the USA is putting the cart before the horse and hoping the carriage can move forward. What the USA is doing is building factories first and then sourced for the raw materials to feed those factory production capacity and needs, not realizing who is controlling the raw materials. This is a going to be a certainty for failure. USA Commerce Secretary refers to China as 'the enemy', so China's response must be mutual at best.

The future of global transport is still going to be dominated by EVs. The USA wants to build its own EV building hub and betting big on it. But first, it has to get rid of competition from China, which is what it is doing now, with the 100% tariffs on EVs made in China. China is retaliating by cutting off its graphite sales for making EV batteries, without which the building of the EV hub in the USA is facing a stillborn situation. Without the means to build EV batteries to support its EV building hub, resulting from China's graphite sales ban, what is the USA going to do?

Sure, the USA can also start building from scratch their graphite supply chains, but time is not on its side. Such EV factories being built cannot wait for, maybe three years optimistically, for those EV battery builders to start their production schedule. By that time, costs constraints will just kill them both off without the ability to find a global market to absorb the EV battery output that will still be dominated by China with its control of graphite production as well.

You see, China's overcapacity in every sector is a massive asset in times of need to retaliate against those out to destroy China's manufacturing base. It was an investment strategy that only the Chinese could have thought about long ago. China thinks decades ahead before embarking on its mission to dominate, in all sectors I would say.

US continues to steal Iraqi and Syrian oil

 Iran and other Islamic States will always be surrounding Israel and will not disappear and even if the USA and Israel wins, a perpetual underground war will follow. And underground war is what the USA feared most as in Vietnam.

Just take Iraq as an example. Saddam Hussein fell, but ISIS took over to keep Iraq in turmoil until today. Mission accomplished my foot. The only mission accomplished is the stealing of Iraqi oil. And Iraq now is still against USA control. When will it end? There is no end until the USA withdraws and stop stealing Iraq's oil. And so, that is the same situation that is facing the USA and Israel.

Or take Afghanistan. The USA had a hand in getting rid of the Taliban and installed their own stooge in power, even providing military training of Afghan troops to hold the fort for them. Did the USA succeed? Twenty long years and hundreds of billions into a black hole, only to see a return of the Taliban once again in power. Oh, never mind, it is just toilet papers, and the USA can just keep printing them. The day of unlimited printing of toilet papers is going to end soon.

Ukraine is another that is going to fail for the USA. And what about Israel? Think about it!
