The US will HAVE to back down or it will be WW3.


The Russians won't as first strike response times are way too important for them.

Peter Pan said...

They won't try to place nukes there for a long time.

Peter Pan said...

What they will do is goad Russia into striking some military facility - for PR purposes.

In the Blind Spot (UAPs, BIS Charts, McLuhan)

Noble gas markets and how they need to become more transparent.The

The UN is brokering a deal to ensure safe passage for grains and fertiliser to external markets.

Has inflation been globalised?

Sri Lanka declares it is bankrupt.

Don’t you just love it when the BIS does crypto charts?


Marshall McLuhan predicted today’s infowar.

"The thing about McLuhan is that he really does need to be regularly and periodically re-read. I imagine those reading him in the 1970s didn’t have the foggiest about what he was on about then. It’s almost like McLuhan was writing in the style of some sort prophet, whose words would only begin to make sense when certain things had come to pass. In any case, the key insight being discussed here is: “World War III is a guerrilla information war with no division between military and civilian participation.”

" Every crime the Azov committed the West was straight in first accusing Russia of the crime. "


So that Russia really struggled to accuse Asov of anything.


By then the Russians knew they had lost the info war.


When Russia found the biolabs the West was straight in saying Russia was going to launch a biological weapon.


That kind of thing...


Front running the problem and passing the problem to the enemy it was very effective

To play with Russia's head a bit.


Peter Pan said...

Special operations may involve psychological games, but my expectation is that its mostly about blowing up stuff and assassinating people.

No need to influence the dead.

Tom Hickey said...

No surprise that Russia lost the info war in the West since the media are controlled to plug the narrative.

Conversely, no surprise that Russia won the info war Russia for similar reasons. The Western psyops had expected that Russians would be persuaded to rise up agains the government while the opposite happened. Putin's popularity is higher than ever and Russians by and large back the SMO, polling (Levada and Western) indicates.

There was also a belief in the West that sanctioning the oligarchs would lead to their overthrow of Putin. Again, the opposite occurred and Most Russians were happy to see their oligarchs get their comeuppance and loose position as well as wealth.

The Western info war also doesn't seem to be going down very well in the ROW where the countries comprising 80% of the world's population either refuse to condemn Russia or remain non-committal, even under pressure.

So "Russia has lost the info war" is true in the West, where it would be expected owing to narrative control. But in the bigger picture, no so much.

The first time they used the strategy everyone thought here we go this is the false flag event. can't remember the first one think it was early on when Russia was taking Chernobyl.


After 20-30 times everyone didn't know if they were coming or going.


Until the false flag showed up in Bucha that nobody expected.


What did they do- straight in and accused them of war crimes.








Footsoldier said...

Murdered tens of thousands of humans in the process.


Can't stop it now without looking so much weaker than they did before it started.


Pure evil man. In a just world, a fair world they should be in the Hague for crimes against humanity. Strung up be the neck.

North Korea mobilizes anti-COVID army in dramatic parade
https://rumble.com/v15b74o-north-korea-mobilizes-anti-covid-army-in-dramatic-parade.html

IMO Koreans are most interesting people in the world.

Footsoldier said...

If they develop nukes interesting becomes an understatement.


I'm giving up and moving to Easter Island to grow some trees If the North Korea get nukes.


That's enough now, stop this parallel universe I've found myself in and let me get off.














Peter Pan said...

North Korea has nukes.
