 Truth is the Sublime Convergence of History and Reality

De Omnibus Dubitandum, (Everything is to be questioned!)

This Link will take you to My Commentaries.

By Rich Kozlovich

 

George Friedman, the publisher of Geopolitical Futures, a site I highly recommend, has over the last year explained the reason the world is in such turmoil.  The cold war really is over now, and that was the anchor for the thinking of the world's leaders.  The Russo/Ukrainian War ended it in reality.  

NATO was created to prevent the Soviet Union from overrunning the rest of Europe, which is exactly what Stalin wanted to do, and officially the cold war ended with the end of the Soviet Union.  But the Cold War was predicated on saving Europe from the Russians, whether the Soviet Union existed or not, and it was believed by just about everyone, including me, if the U.S. wasn't backing NATO Russia could march down the North European Plain all the way to France without much trouble.  We now know Russia is incapable of overrunning Europe.  

What was styled as the second rated military in the world has been unable to defeat the world's twenty second rated military in almost four years, and is now incapable of manning it's army without "volunteers" from China and North Korea, and incapable of manufacturing their own equipment.  They're buying munitions from North Korea and drones from Iran.  Now the price of oil is dropping, and will drop further as Trump will push drilling, making the only real commodity the world wanted from Russia far less economically viable to save their economy. 

The EU is wanting to impose another level of economic sanctions on Russia, but it won't happen because both Slovakia and Hungary oppose them.  What's that really mean though?   Europe is no longer in dire need of Russian oil.  

Putin threatened Sweden and Finland that if they joined NATO they would face repercussions.  They joined, and his bully boy tactics has triggered something Europe wanted to prevent for decades, a resurgence of Germany's military, which is happening and now Germany has sent 5000 troops to support Lithuania, and there's talk that Putin might not be in power much longer. 

Also, pay attention to this little shooting war between Pakistan and India.  Russia's been allies of both, China is an ally of Pakistan and just like Pakistan, is in eternal conflict with India.  Now Russia's being asked to be a mediator, and Putin can't afford to offend his few remaining allies.  This will be interesting to watch. 

Xi, dictator for life, is in trouble in China.  His adoration of Maoist economics has been disastrous, and now it appears he's saying China needs to become more capitalistic, and the CCP is asking why it needs such an idiot to be in charge.  

China has now sent a carrier task force to sail close to Japanese waters in order to continue their little schemes of military intimidation in Asia, all of which has a resulted in a resurgance of  Japan military.  

The US is reconsidering it's AUKUS relationship since neither the UK or Australia seem to understand who is their ally and who is their enemy, all of whom are electing far left governments.  So, why would America wish to share intelligence and advanced technology with them?  

 In America we're having another left wing hissy fit, another planned and organized "spontaneous" hissy fit.  Riots and demonstrations against Trump and ICE are breaking out all over the nation, where the governor of California and the mayor of L.A. waited days before ordering the police to deal the riot, and that's only because the optics became so bad, and even that was a sham. 

California's state officials are blatantly violating the law regarding immigration, and the police are being handcuffed.  If they do their job as in the past, not only will anyone they arrest be back on the streets almost immediately, they may find themselves being charged with crimes.  Newsom is working his little butt off to end Trump nationalization of the California Nation Guard and demanding Trump withdraw the Marines.  Gotta protect all the thugs and illegal criminals over the actual citizens of California.  And he's losing, as America sees it differently.   

Florida has made it clear, they're not going to tolerate the crap that's been going on in California.  In Florida any violence by "demonstrators" will be met with violence by the police, and some rioters may end up dead.

The Democrats have demonstrated how they have no respect for civil behavior, and actually think they should not only be allowed to be uncivil and even violent, including members of Congress, demanding everyone follow the Pravda media by praising them.   Al Sharpton, who's never been the brightest pebble in the brook, claims ‘Trump has pushed too far, as a result he's united the opposition against him.  And when exactly wasn't the opposition united against him?

And finally, Tim Walz thinks announcing that he's a Chinese operative, claiming China "holds the moral authority" on _____ (fill in the blank) will launch him into the office of President of the United States.  Yep, he's a knucklehead!

  • Democrats are nuts. Their antisemitism is becoming apparent. Their affinity for criminals, lying, hypocrisy, depravity, chaos, and drama is well known. And everyone knows what drama is in Hollywood: nothing real going on...........
  • Whether it’s Greta Thunberg transitioning from lecturing on fossil fuels to excusing Hamas atrocities, or BLM co-founders admitting their ideological roots in Marxism, the throughline is unmistakable. These “movements” are not operating independently. They are decentralized arms of the same ideological machine: a globalist, leftist coalition seeking the erosion of borders, nations, and Western civilization itself...........

Today I have the usual permanent links along with nine commentaries of my own, and thirteen others I hope you will find worthy.  Have a great weekend, and best wishes to all those of good will and honest intentions.
