All things Russia and Ukraine...

Well, now that the salad days of cheap Russian ammo have passed, it's no longer that important to us. I should have bought a Dragunov.

 

While I agree for the most part, Bathhaus Barry tried to weaponize the dollar and impose sanctions on Russia. The president of SWIFT said nope. Trump sacked him in 2019 and replaced him so when Pedo Pedro (puppet of Bathhaus Barry) weaponized the dollar, it worked this time. Even Putin said (in interview with Tucker) that it was a stupid move.

(Think of Swift as a casino. Gamblers are going to gamble and if you deny some gamblers access, they create their own casino. Now there is BRICS with its Unit (not in effect yet), INSTEX, SFPS and direct currency swaps for foreign exchange; all of which can bypass the SWIFT casino.)

Lesson: They (meaning deep state & globalists) are very patient and if they can't achieve their goals under one administration, they'll go through another. Nomi Prins' All The Presidents' Bankers makes this very clear.

The fractional reserve banking system is near collapse point (and hence the need to fund wars abroad just to sustain creation of new currency and for those on top to grab their last scraps before the wheels fall off). This is why it's important to have the malevolent orange entity (#45 & now #47) at the helm. He's been bankrupt twice and knows how to build. This time, instead of a real estate empire, it's a nation he'll rebuild. End of the Fed Res Note and replacement perhaps with the Treasury Dollar/Bitcoin and mebbe commodities.

First thing is to take von Rundstedt's advice: Make peace you fools! Besides, after having gone woke and effeminizing itself, the American Armed Forces cannot meet its recruitment goals. I don't blame the youth for eschewing enlistment. It's not like it's 1945 and the US Is in no position to take on any major power.

Clauswitz said, "When goods don't cross borders, armies do."

 

What do you make of this Bank for International Settlements? The GM Agustín Carstens seems really sketchy.

 

BIS is the Central Banks' central bank and a part of the globalist cabal that's working towards ensuring you own nothing and be (un)happy. David Rogers Webb's The Great Taking is a must read and this link will get you to a free pdf and audio book: The Great Taking (it's around one hour so please spend that short amount of time listening to the audio). Webb describes how your bank deposits can be used to bail-in your bank ala Cyprus (in the US this was legalized by the Dodd-Frank Act that redefined you the depositor as an "unsecured creditor" who stands second in line to the bank's primary creditors (generally other banks)) and if you have equities (stocks), you don't have title per se but only have an interest which means it may be rehypothecated (remember PFG Best and MF Global?). Title to your shares actually belong to the DTCC. To protect yourself you must either take physical possession of your share certificate (like in the olde days) or direct register the shares (and get them onto the corporation's books and off your brokerage's statement). Recently the state of TN has rejected the UCC (Uniform Commercial Code) to re-assert local jurisdiction when it comes to financial matters. That means investors in that state can still make a claim on the equities that appear on their brokerage statement or 401(K) accounts. Yay Tennessee, the Volunteer State.

It's been said that all wars are bankers' wars. I'm coming to believe it. We all know that wars cost money and (historically) five German principalities (states within the Holy Roman Empire) went into debt fighting the Seven Years' War. To raise revenue to pay that debt, they rented out regiments to the House of Hannover (British Crown) during the American Revolution. These "hessians" (Germans were conveniently lumped into one principality by the American rebels) augmented the British Army. They fought under their own colors and were led by their own officers. Those Germans are incorrectly called "mercenaries" by Americans but they didn't work/fight for money but fought under orders of their prince who received payment for their services. Rent an army kinda thing. Since more money was paid by the British Crown for jagers, all sorts of riff-raff were recruited whether they were actual foresters or not. One jager officer lamented that the quality of the replacements were not on par as the men who were originally jagers (this was both rifle armed and musket armed).

Sidenote: quite a number of Germans deserted under the allure of land. That was something undreamed of if you were a German peasant in your heimat. The trick was the land wasn't given until the war was won and it was often in territory disputed by the natives (in all fairness ditto with the veterans of the Continental Army). You had to clear your land, build your house and keep your scalp. The stone buildings of Carlisle Barracks were built by German PoWs.

 

Indeed and the people of Ukraine are being used as lab rats to test the latest Orwellian technologies, before the globalists try to inflict the same pestilence on everyone else.

Russian warship carrying hypersonic missiles conducts drills in English Channel (msn.com)


Im guessing that there were UK and French submarines inches away from the hull...Glug glug glug...

 

Regarding hypersonic missiles (meaning they are steerable), we don't have any defense yet and were working on that technology, but Bubba Klington (#42) sold that (then developing) technology to China. Of course, it's very possible that our DEWs can shoot them down, provided we have a tracking system that's fast enough to aim them and enough energy is generated to explode those things while they're inflight. As for American armory, our last attempt at a hypersonic missile failed.

I'm hearing a lot about Chinese and Koreans fighting for Russia with Chinese fighting on both sides. The Chinese are discontent as they are poorly fed and when possible, used as laborers (No Russian has to chop wood if they can get the Chinese or African to do it). One Chinese soldier (ex-PRC who migrated to Estados Unidos) died for Ukraine. Note he has a RoC (Taiwan) flag behind him. The article suggests he was the sole Chinese soldier but says he had Chinese friends there in Ukraine.



Give piece a chance.

 

Update - 11/3 "The Kremlin is attempting to dictate the terms of any potential "peace" negotiations with Ukraine in advance of US President-elect Donald Trump's inauguration."

Also
Putin signaled an"I own you" to Trump last week by saying Trump lied about speaking with Putin and Russian TV running a story mocking Donalds wife with nude pictures of her previous profession.

Indeed...So Trump like to make something like that up.
The US does have a hypersonic missile (several iterations in fact) - And the Energy weapon/s the US is working on could take out a fast missile - depends more on the tracking - Which the US would lead in (think satelites).
Nor surprisingly Putin is trying to get more territory before this thing stops...
Ukraine is targeting Chinese/Korean troops, a long withstanding tactic to target new comers to try and reduce the appetite for war, particularly back home...(Something Australia had to deal with during Vietnam - Being targeted to push us out...Instead we gave better than we got and the North Vietnamese gave up and ordered Australians be avoided.

 

CAC - mainland Chinese escaping from totalitarianism before their economy bellies up? I know a few years back the Baltic Dry Index (raw goods) for China was down and that meant less demand for manufactured goods. Lot of factories have closed, their banks are in trouble and many mortgage holders find their property under water. Banks closures along with difficulty of closing accounts plagues the Chinese banking industry. Unemployment is high. Ecconomic bubble has burst for them.

 

Shit don't say that!!
If China sneezes Australia gets a cold...A healthy China is a healthy Australia...
Google:
"China is Australia's largest trading partner. It buys almost a third of all Australian exports, and is the top overseas market for many Australian goods and services. Trade and investment with China is a big part of Australia's future. The Australia-China economic relationship is extensive and growing strongly."

 

If Australia is selling grains and cattle, it needn't worry about decreasing Chinese demand. I don't think China can feed itself anymore. China has been a big buyer of American farmland.

 

Yeah they try to buy farms here too...we've put a limit on it though. (People are saying we are selling Australia to the Chinese! But...i remind them if the shit hits the fan, that farm land is going no where.) They can buy it, but they cant take it. We sell all sorts of stuff to China - They play power games, banning some our goods to change our minds on things...Which has NEVER worked. Iron ore is a massive source of income from the Chinese - We've only just got them to buy our Lobsters again! Instead of enduring the cycle of banning and buying, we are looking to expand our markets to other Asian countries including India...
So much moola to be made from the Chinese and Indians...
Australia has ridden the backs of the Chinese and US dragons for decades...we are trying to put a third foot? on the back of the Indian dragon too...wish us luck.

 

Germany has been developed the new 130 mm armed Panther tank with a 1500 hp diesel engine that gives it a 25:1 ratio. There are plans to build a factory in U-crane too.

(Note: the scale of people to the new tank sucks and makes the new tank look too big).



I like how the Germany has named its tanks after feline species: Panther, Tiger, Konig Tiger, Lynx and post war Leopard. Sounds better than the Russian practice of T-this or the American practice of M-that.

 

If that is supposed to be a plan, that sort of planning did nothing to discourage the Gurkhas as they are still in business as mercenaries. Soldiers of fortune are likely to be all the rage in the future, e.g. Blackwater and the Wagner Group. That is one reason why globalists are pushing so hard on immigration. Many people have caught on to the scams of government and they refuse to join the circus. People who don't speak your language will wear the uniform of your army and police departments.

Australia is not exactly rated highly for freedom of expression. You may want to check out the Hang Loose Recluse channel on YouTube, to understand how bad things are progressing in the wrong direction.

Too many lessons were not learned, which also applies to the Ukraine Donbas and that little strip of land in the Middle East. This from ‘Australia's Vietnam’ edited by Peter King (1983):

“Australia had earlier taken the part of inciter and goad of its ally, yet while the Australian government wished and plotted for the Vietnam War before its entry, Australia became involved only marginally in the combat when America’s war began in earnest ...

Frank Frost’s painstaking evaluation of the military performance of the Australian Army Task Force in Vietnam brings out two serious failures of Australian policy. First, there was a lack of overall political or strategic guidance given to the Task Force command. Should it engage in battles with the main-force units of the guerrilla enemy, or undertake ‘pacification’ in the villages of the Phuoc Tuy province? The Task Force was not properly equipped for either role and, perhaps fortunately, it performed badly in both.

Secondly, the government failed to inform itself and the army about the political and social realities of the Vietnamese countryside, including the real roles of the counter-revolutionary ally and the revolutionary enemy. Some of the soldiers learnt the surprising history of Phuoc Tuy’s anti-French resistance tradition from the local citizenry; some never understood why villagers very close to the Task Force base never accepted the Australians presence. The army’s ignorance of Vietnamese society and the Vietnamese revolution had severe practical results, for example in the minefield fiasco described in Frost’s chapter.

Still, the policy of ignorance enjoyed success of a kind: few Australians, soldiers or civilians, ever asked themselves by what right the Australian army was hounding the heroes of the Vietnamese resistance, and their sons and daughters, to death.”

Frost also wrote that in May 1971, a senior Task Force officer told The Australian that all villages in the Phuoc Tuy province still had a Vietcong chapter and party organization. He added that “the strongest element in the province has always been, and still is, the Vietcong infrastructure which is very difficult to come to grips with.”

(See preface and p.13-14, 69)

 

This from an Australian vet:

North Vietnamese veterans I’ve spoken to have told me that they feared American firepower, rather than American troops per se. If they were spotted, the amount of raw destruction that could be brought down was huge. The trick, they said with a smile, was to never be spotted.

The NVA gave up on the province held by Australian and New Zealand forces. The Viet Cong D445 battalion suffered heavy losses to Australian troops, making it too difficult to operate. The North Vietnamese command decided correctly that there was no point in further operations against the Aussies and Kiwis, as they’d have to evacuate if the US lost.
