The Strait of Hormuz cannot be opened by the US with force. The Strait is narrow, and the weapons Iran can use are cheap and easy to produce. This is Iran's Azhdar UUV (unmanned underwater vehicle) that can remain underwater for 24 hours, is quiet, and is hard to detect.

Israel is losing the war it started, yet does not want to walk away from the historic opportunity to destroy Iran. Thus, the US entering the war is guaranteed. - The exit strategy? Without ground troops, will the US murder Iranians until there is regime change or capitulation?

Arestovych, Zelensky’s former top adviser, argued about seven months ago that the alternative to accepting a bad deal today was accepting an even worse deal later. It’s a reasonable argument to make when losing a war, yet the argument would never be allowed in our warmongering media.

Our hard-earned tax money is being spent in Georgia to fund so-called “non-governmental organisations” that aim to destabilise and topple the government. As NATO runs out of Ukrainian soldiers, it is necessary to acquire another proxy.

NATO Secretary General Rutte argues Putin has no vote or veto on NATO expansion - The post-Cold War objective of making NATO the dominant security institution for Europe, and arguing that Russia should have no say over what NATO does is the source of the war. Zero-sum bloc politics is revived to evict Russia from Europe. Without institutional influence to prevent being surrounded by a hostile military bloc, the only option becomes hard power - In the audience, at the end of the video, is a soldier from Azov with a Nazi insignia on the shoulder

Perm was attacked today, about 1500-1800km from Ukraine. It is ridiculous to believe that these attacks on Russia are done solely by Ukraine. We are led by lunatics who will surely scream "unprovoked" when a powerful retaliation comes.

After yet another attack on the Russian refinery in Tuapse on the Black Sea coast, it seems increasingly likely that Russia will begin to target NATO surveillance drones over the Black Sea that pick the targets and are important to overcome air defence systems.

The Europeans will accuse the US of betraying Ukraine. The real betrayal happened with the coup in 2014, co-opting Ukraine's intelligence services in a covert war, support for cultural and political oppression, sabotage of Minsk, sabotage of the 2019 peace mandate, sabotage of Istanbul, and other betrayal the media has refused to report on. Ukraine was made into a frontline state against the will of its people, knowing that Russia considered NATO in Ukraine an existential threat and would destroy Ukraine to prevent it. After sabotaging negotiations, our political leaders refused any diplomacy as they watched hundreds of thousands of young men die and argued that weapons are the path to peace. Our media smeared all criticism and opposition as "Russian propaganda". There is a difference between standing with Ukraine and sacrificing Ukraine in a proxy war. Their moral slogans and accusations of betrayal rings hollow as they have no love for Ukraine in their hearts, only hatred of Russia.
