FRYING CHICKEN with QUAILS in a COUNTRY WOOD STOVE
Nice country outdoor cooking channel from this Russian guy Georgy I’ve been viewing and getting some ideas from for a few years…
Putin thinks these people are going to rather go China instead … no way in hell … Putin’s has to be insane… never going to happen…
Frying chicken with quails in a country wood stove is what the cauldrons in Ukraine are going to look and smell like. When they start phase 2 after Easter.
We won't have seen anything like it since WW2.
They have dropped " surrender" letters all over the cauldron over Easter. They better lay down their arms because he'll on earth is coming.
Surrenders have increased from the 100's to 1000's over the past few weeks this will increase to the tens of thousands in my opinion. As for the first time ever Ariel bombing with MASSIVE bombs are being moved to the front.
Tu-22m’s are being unboxed for the first time loaded with the MOAB's.
The street to street fighting in the East because of the Nazi's using Russian speaking Ukrainians as human shields is nearly over.
What happens next is going to be different as they move Westwards.
When it comes to Western Ukraine the Nazi's won't use their own as human shields and won't retreat into residential areas. As the war moves West it is going to look very different.
Millions have already fled Western Ukraine as refugees across borders as they know what is coming.
Unlike the American policy wherever they fight and that is flatten cities regardless of civilian casulties. This has been the opposite of that so far.
That could easily change as the Russians move westwards into Nazi cities and towns. I wouldn't want to be living in Lviv which is Nazi HQ that's for sure.
I'm only guessing and could very easily be way off.
But the way I see it is once Putin secures Eastern Ukraine and frees Russian speaking Ukrainians in the East from the genocide they have been under for the last 7 years. Splits Ukraine in half and takes the coastal cities and absorbs them as Russian by a number of independence referendums.
Zelensky will be on his hands and knees begging for peace to try and save Nazi western Ukraine.
I hope Putin melts it and puts western Ukraine back to the stone age and copies US foreign policy in Western Ukraine.. That the Nazi refugees that have fled are never allowed to return. If Poland accepted them then they are held responsible for denazifying them as they live in Poland and move to other parts of the EU. It is now their problem.
So that the ideology can never raise its head in Ukraine ever again.
That's just my wishful thinking.
I very much doubt he will mirror US foreign policy in Western Ukraine. He has shown from the very start of the campaign he sees the war as Russian against Russian. Slav against slav being used against each other by the West.
Who knows what he is thinking at this point apart from the mirror in his bathroom.
The Russian version is four times more powerful than the American "mother of all bombs," the largest non-nuclear bomb in the US arsenal and the largest non-nuclear bomb the United States.
Frying chicken and Quails in a country wood stove.
The Baltics are integrating with the EU economically, and Russia never demanded that they remain neutral. Should be no trouble over there unless they start installing nukes.
Finland, I don't understand why they would join NATO. They were always serious about having their own military while remaining neutral.
In terms of trade, Americans associate with China big time. Russia will be to China, what Canada is to the US. More so, since Russia has a greater population and more industry.
Russians living in the Far East can travel to China and be served by Russian-speaking Chinese vendors. They get along better than they do with their European neighbours.
What is a complete head scratcher for me and simply don't understand why the Russians didn't put 100 thousand troops in Western Ukraine at the start along with the attack in the East ?
a) It would have stopped the Western supply lines
b) Made the Ukrainian army look over their shoulders wondering what was happening at home. Made them think about surrendering more.
c) Brought them round the negotiating table quicker. Maybe sign the Minsk agreement.
As long as it was in Eastern Ukraine why would they worry especially when they see Eastern Ukraine as vermin anyway. Love to kill Eastern civilians.
The only reason I can think of why the Russians didn't do that was the cauldron. If they put 100 thousand in the West the cauldron wouldn't have stayed where it was. Wouldn't have been trapped.
Phase 2 might also mean Russian troops also flood into Western Ukraine via Belarus now the cauldron are trapped. As there are reports of troop build up in Belarus.
Who knows.
But I just don't understand why Western Ukraine as remained largely untouched throughout. It is a head scratcher.
We're assuming that the plan is to partition Ukraine. Nowhere near enough Russian troops to invade western Ukraine and occupy it. That would be what Washington is dreaming of.
Western politicians are trying hard to partition from Russia but a lot of large companies really don’t want it. So when this settles down they’ll try to return to doing business again as it’s a huge potential market. It’s all about money.
Lavrov might be right, when western hysteria is over they will talk again and things will unwind.
“ Western politicians are trying hard to partition from Russia but a lot of large companies really don’t want it. So when this settles down they’ll try to return to doing business again as it’s a huge potential market. It’s all about money.”
That’s not what they’re saying and doing though…
I would agree it would go that way if Putin achieves room temperature soon…. It will revert right back..
But if this keeps dragging out the firms are going to restructure and write down the last 25 years of business development with Russia… move on…
Russia then risks pariah status in eyes of rest of Europe… more sanctions , travel restrictions etc..
Putin thinks they can just associate with China…
I don’t see it… if the everyday Russians can vote him out he’s going to be gone…
But how they elect their government people is not clear to me.. Putin looking more like old Soviet leadership that never left until they died..
Russia has been cut-off from CNN, Pornhub, McDonalds, & Coca-Cola... Soon enough they're going to be the healthiest and most informed people on the planet.

Meet the Russian 'father of all bombs'
ReplyDeleteThat hasn't been used yet, until after Easter that is on the cauldron.

Russia vs Ukraine is sort of like Roman Empire vs Germanic tribes.
ReplyDeleteRussia would be advised to impose a demilitarized zone between itself and Europe.
They could have used the MOAB anytime they wanted on the avstol plant in Mariupol.
ReplyDeleteDecided to go street to street instead.
Lviv the Nazi HQ could be different me finks.
" Russia would be advised to impose a demilitarized zone between itself and Europe. "
ReplyDeleteOnly solution in my opinion Peter.
The problem in the future when you look at the Baltic states. I've been to them all with the football.
All of them have the same set up as Ukraine. That is there are pockets of Russian speakers in all of them who would have preferred to stay Russian.
What's stopping NATO from doing the same in any of these Baltic states ??
A demilitarized zone between Russia and Europe is not as easy as it sounds. Now you have Finland and Sweden wanting NATO troops in their soil.
It is a huge mess.
Nazis from Lithuania and Latvia and other Baltic states are already in Ukraine helping Ukraine.
ReplyDeleteOnly difference is Nazis in Lithuania and Latvia etc never managed to infiltrate their governments. Gain any real power.
I hope it stays that way or there will be more Ukraine's in different Baltic states.
The Baltics are integrating with the EU economically, and Russia never demanded that they remain neutral. Should be no trouble over there unless they start installing nukes.

iow this guy here in this video and his family look European to me not Chinese…
ReplyDeleteThese type of Russians aren’t going to listen to Putin when he tells them they have to convert over to Egg Foo Yung…
They’re not going to do it…
Russians love AliExpress. Huge there and will be even bigger. They even buy food from AliExpress.
ReplyDeleteOk we’ll see how the conversion goes…
