When Western military analysts argue that Putin can’t win militarily in Ukraine, what they really mean is that he can’t win clean. Since when has Putin ever played clean?
As another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
If the United States does not cease being dictated to by the 1%'s police state, Europe is going to be speaking Russian and America is going to be paying it's bills in Rubles.

There was an enlightening article online which was one of the few which came to getting it close to right in what the Kremlin is engaged in, in Ukraine.
It is though focused upon Russian greed, as that is pure American bias and bases Ukraine in what took place in the US instigated terror war in Chechnya.
Read the quote and I will meet you on the other side.
“There is a whole next stage to the Putin playbook, which is well known to the Chechens,” Gall writes. “As Russian troops gained control on the ground in Chechnya, they crushed any further dissent with arrests and filtration camps and by turning and empowering local protégés and collaborators.”
Suppose for a moment that Putin never intended to conquer all of Ukraine: that, from the beginning, his real targets were the energy riches of Ukraine’s east, which contain Europe’s second-largest known reserves of natural gas (after Norway’s).
Combine that with Russia’s previous territorial seizures in Crimea (which has huge offshore energy fields) and the eastern provinces of Luhansk and Donetsk (which contain part of an enormous shale-gas field), as well as Putin’s bid to control most or all of Ukraine’s coastline, and the shape of Putin’s ambitions become clear. He’s less interested in reuniting the Russian-speaking world than he is in securing Russia’s energy dominance.
“Under the guise of an invasion, Putin is executing an enormous heist,” said Canadian energy expert David Knight Legg. As for what’s left of a mostly landlocked Ukraine, it will likely become a welfare case for the West, which will help pick up the tab for resettling Ukraine’s refugees to new homes outside of Russian control. In time, a Viktor Orban-like figure could take Ukraine’s presidency, imitating the strongman-style of politics that Putin prefers in his neighbors.
If this analysis is right, then Putin doesn’t seem like the miscalculating loser his critics make him out to be.
Energy is what is going to drive this world, and it will not be Austrian hydrogen cars or Dictator Biden battery cars. It will be the burning of fuels in the renewing supply of gas and oil, which the Eurasians will be dominating with as they gain supply control with OPEC allies.
What is missing above is Vladimir Putin's allegiance to the diaspora Russians, which Adolf Hitler was fixated on in the diaspora Germans being mistreated in the world. Russia due to population realities needs the 40 million Russians who are not inside the borders of Russia to continue to the 22nd century. The world is not going to be aligned with ideologies, but with bloodlines.
Again, the above quote does not take into account the machinations of NATO in the Baltics, the terror war in Ukraine by NATO and the coming flashpoints meant to bait Russia in Moldova and Serbia. Ukraine is not going to solve these issues. Russia will have to have position in order to deal with these problems and that means a land bridge via Odessa and control of the Black Sea. The completely astute part in thee above is thee reality that the West is being stuck with millions of Ukrainian Nazi terrorists and with a population that is a welfare shit hole as the Zellinskyy Ukraine has no value, not even as territory for NATO.
Russia can go east into the Mideast to dislodge the United States, and by oil and Dollar collapse gain control over Europe without direct confrontation as this blog has stated. Do not believe that China is not supporting Russia, as China gained the Solomon Islands and by those islands cuts off direct transportation routes and military protection from the United States. This is why Japan took those islands and why America fought Japan first there, to secure the vulnerable Australia.
The Kremlin has not had any setbacks in the least in Ukraine. They have been running their 10 day agendas, and successfully been making the West react, instead of reacting to the West.
Thee only salvation which Europe has now, is for a German led confederation to arise, for this nation group to rearm with WMD's and for Europe to seize the Libya oil fields along with all of North Africa, before Russia and China gain all supply within Europe's reach. Europe will have to put in a major base in Egypt to control the Black Sea, Mediterraean and gain leverage in the Indian Ocean for Asia affairs.
Vladimir Putin is holding class. America is flunking thinking they can get the Professor to grade their way and Europe is not even attending class yet. Europe needs the anti Christ force to appear to attempt to check Mr. Putin, before he goes into the finals to educate the world in his abilities.
This is another Lame Cherry exclusive in matter anti matter.
Nuff Said.
