It wasnt a retired Colonel Douglas MacGregor was it? Hes been incredibly Pro Putin and a pet of Russian media for a decade. 

 

Well blaming Nato is one of his many excuses. But Russia complaining about Nato is like a serial arsonist complaining that its the fire department and police who make him light fires around the neighborhood. 

 

Im not saying there isnt SOME legitimacy to it, but Nations like Estonia, Lithuania, Latvias right to protection after they have been invaded and viciously oppressed by Russia in living memory, outweighs Russias feeling it should be able to do what it wants. 

 

In 1998 I was working with 4 Ukrainian brothers. 3 of them were off the the US to work and very excited about it, but one was going back to Ukraine. I asked why. 

"I have to do military training, like my brothers have"

"oh its compulsory in Ukraine?" 

"No, I have to train because of the war with Russia"

"What, your having a war with Russia??"

"Not now, but eventually there is always war with Russia" he said it with simple but strong conviction.

At the time, I thought he was crazy. But as of a few months ago I heard 2 of his brothers are missing in action, their father who is well into his 70's had lied about his age and last time I heard was in a self propelled gun and in tears because he had run out of shells.

 

 

 

Yes it was probably that General...

Ha, it's a classic movie for sure.

 

Anyone got any thoughts on how it's going to end? I'm guessing either an assassination (Putin being the target) or a long drawn out amounts to nothing destruction of Ukraine.

 

It looks like neither Putin or Zelensky are going to back down and negotiate a peace deal.

Ukrainian victory in 2023, holiday in Odessa in 2024 for myself and the Mrs at a good friend’s hopefully rebuilt hotel. Mind you I’ve yet to tell her the plan. Putin will be overthrown or fall out of a window as they tend to a lot in Russia.

Well, to me the whole lot of it is just a distraction, a plan { soap opera.. real life and death Truman show} displaying absolutely a total disregard for human suffering and the desecration of the biosphere in the scramble for digital domination of everything at any expense...

 

The whole of todays tech that most everyone totally relies on is based on mathematics that are completely at odds and counter intuitive to all of nature, it will never work out in our favour.

 

How's it going to end ? I would expect, badly. 

 

Disagree if you likes... I'll stick🙂

I could live with that.

I think you said a whole lot of nothing there, apart from that it will end badly, that's already a given.

I’d not say it was nothing as such, the total disregard for human life exhibited by politicians and the suffering we see, often sanitised by the video game mentality of watching tanks being picked off or guys having drones drop grenades literally into their laps all recorded and viewed in the main by people who have never ever been in the military is a sad indication of where we are as a society. Combine all this with the last few years lunacy and the constant relentless EU and others drive for centralisation, alignment and digital ID/Currency, the constant attacks on the traditional family unit and the promotion of utter crap woke trans shit,etc etc and it’s not hard to see why people are wondering where it will all end. In the meantime the weapons industry is booming, energy companies are making record profits, tax is at an all time, people are on the bones of their arse financially, food prices are soaring whilst the EU/Dutch government attempts to close farms to save the planet, the list is long if you want to look  🤔

I suppose he’s talking about Fibonnacci sequence, seems to be his thing lately.
