To think Ukraine could’ve walked out of this with nothing more than a bloody nose and a bruised ego. At this point Russia has no incentive to stop, they’ve mitigated the sanctions, found states willing to buy their oil and gas and learned to produce weapons of war without importing parts… militarily they’re winning and it’s unlikely Ukraine can reasonably expect to fight much longer without a total adult male conscription (like the Nazis did once the USSR breached Germany’s borders) and even then, it would destroy their population in exchange for buying time, not a victory.
They went all in on the West, and I think just now they’re beginning to realize that they got duped.
This makes me think that Ukraine must be totally winning this war now! Heavily arming straight up nazis as well as the ”””””””””””””””” homeland of the Jewish people”””””””””””””””” is bliss.
It begins, Cuba is has long expressed sadness that ever since Soviet leaders had cut off their access to modern weapons of war, that they could no longer help fight in nations that need military help with revolution since their assistance in Algeria and Mozambique.
This. The important thing is they view the very existence of Palestinians in Israel as a threat to the settler colonial project. They saw South Africa, Rhodesia, Namibia, Mozambique, etc etc etc they won’t allow the “mistakes” to repeat. Sooner or later they want all of them forced out or dead…
Israel is a lot more fragile than they let on.
Definitely vote, just vote for whatever the closest thing to a revolutionary party that you can, even if that party is only going to get like 2%, revolution won’t happen via the voting box but there’s a reason that the CIA tries to subvert these parties.
Social democrats can “win” sometimes but their advances are fleeting, look at Sweden, Netherlands, and France to see how quickly their gains can be undone. Hell, even Labour in Britain and the Democratic Party in the US were somewhat respectable social democratic parties in the earlier to mid 20th century. However why would they work to shut down CPUSA (before it was co-opted)? Because it can serve as a barometer for revolutionary sentiment.
The pervasive rumor is that hoping for Ukrainian results before the US presidential election, Kiev/Kyiv will mobilize every male over the age of 18, and while conscriptions don’t tend to be that young… don’t forget that the OG Nazis conscripted all males 16 and over to fight once the Soviets breached German lines… even Hitler Youth as young as 13 were sent to collect weapons, boots, wool sweaters, anything possible for the war machine.
why would a nation we’ve exploited for centuries be against the current world order???!!!
Let’s hope the Argentine people can remove Milei so we can keep expanding the BRICS+ club.
albeit at higher costs
This phrase is an outrage for liberals, though.
I took it as arming WANA, but I imagine Russia could arm Serbia or even Cuba (although that is an INSANELY SORE SUBJECT).
They were evil but at least American presidents seemed like statesmen until the 2000s, once Dubya got into power, it was all downhill with exception of Obama.
In theory, but Israel doesn’t decide even if they “canceled” the other citizenships, only the other country decides that.
This. Hamas knows, better than many armchair “experts” online that the goal is not for Israelis to find humanity (impossible) but to be so frightened that they’d rather flee Israel to the US, Europe, Argentina, Australia, etc. Half the nation has a second foreign passport, after the Al-Aqsa Flood, a significant number of Israelis citizens boarded on planes, buses and boats going anywhere for a short holiday. Fear of Hamas from the South and a significantly stronger Hezbollah from the north might, for once, cause a reverse settlement process.
You have to understand that for a number of decades the IDF has successfully portrayed itself as an unstoppable juggernaut, and therefore many “dual nationality” Jewish people are only there because they have been convinced it’s safe.
Setting aside the whole issue of how it looks for leftists to say they support Trump
I wouldn’t say I support Trump but there’s a reason the liberal world order despises him, Trump is such a raging narcissist, that he’s willing to destroy American power to help himself.
Christian Parenti (Michael’s son) says he supports Trump just because at least he’s destructive to NATO and treats the DPRK better than any other American leader.
I have made a special attempt to avoid almost all smartphone use beyond googling things, getting directions and checking emails and it has made reality a lot more real.
I’m sure they’ll agree to it in the short term, but the true goal is the pre-1948 borders.
Don’t be too excited, the judge has already signaled she’ll go easy on him. Donnie might get away with probation. Even if he doesn’t win the presidency, it’s likely he’d be sent to the notoriously comfy Federal Medical Center in Butner, NC because they’ll find he has some medical ailment like Bernie Madoff did… somewhere every prisoner that knows about it is requested to be sent to but denied however mysteriously it happens to be a place they JUST HAPPEN to accept all rich and powerful people with connections.
There’s been some talk of the DPRK freeing the Yeonpyeong Island from the “South Korean” puppet regime, especially since Pyongyang has on many occasions declared that the island is legally in the “North” or the DPRK, as per the ceasefire agreement because the maritime border was snuck into the agreement AFTER Kim Il Sung signed the ceasefire hoping (correctly) that the DPRK was too focused on recovering from the brutality of the war to fight back.
In 1999 the DPRK formally declared that part of liberated territory and presented their case to the UN that the US and its puppet government must either return the island, or offer to pay the DPRK with either a basket of food, fuel, concrete, medicine and fertilizer and/or negotiate a removal of sanctions. Obviously the US has refused to address it and talks with the puppet despots of “South Korea” have been fruitless given that occupied Seoul has no power over its “own” territory and that is handled by Washington’s regime.
The Anglo originated settler colonial state of “The United States of America” which is an occupied nation itself is built on top of nearly 250 indigenous nations and the corpses the largest genocide of human history with the conservative estimate of 10 million people slaughtered, or up to 95% of the indigenous populations of those nations, expressed outrage when Pyongyang earlier this year shelled the island with 350 pieces of explosive ordnance carefully calculated to cause no civilian or military injuries or casualties but also refuse to address that the occupation of the island is in violation of the ceasefire agreement.
Sure, keep pushing Russia together with Iran, Syria, DPRK, Cuba and to a lesser degree, China. I’m sure this can’t possibly blow up in the faces of Washington.
