Russia "deciding" to build its military is kind of funny.
They can't. They are operating at full throttle now.


The last working day of 2022 ends on the Natural Gas market in Europe (EU) in an excellent way for Europe. With only 76 EUR/MWh the price is almost at the lowest point of the whole year. Only few days in February it was lower.


Former Chief Rabbi of Moscow, Pinchas Goldschmidt, calls all people in Russia of Jewish faith to flee the country. He fears that the Russian Regime will use Jews as scapegoats to distract from the increasingly dire situation in Russia.


Are American Bradley going to Ukraine? Looks like it. Chain gun. Fast. Deadly.
Now that it appears Russia will lose everyone wants in on the winning side.

Again, this particular claim could be true but so far I see no evidence.
You see no evidence that Sweden and Finland have applied for NATO membership?Fortunately, NATO has the evidence on file. That's all that really matters.

The lie "Russia did not invade anyone" comes straight from Russian state TV. Now you know where they get their propaganda instructions from.

Clown Chechen leader doing Benny Hill pushups on TV.

More Russian terrorists killed. Happy New Year in hell, comrades.

Agreed, he is sane. That doesn't mean what he is doing is right, however. I need to read more about Russia's side of the story: Their reasons for the military operation.

I am familiar with that. The head of the Soviet Union's intelligentsia (I forget what it was called at the time), Beria, recommended to Stalin the Polish officers be liquidated. The Soviet Union anticipated the Poles would give them trouble in the future. The guy who killed over 7000 of these condemned prisoners by his own hand, Vasily Blokhin (sp?), also killed thousands of others by his own hand during his career. By his own hand, I mean he personally shot the condemned person to death.

I for one am delighted that they are now showing their hineys to the world at large.
If I'm not mistaken, all countries cheated in sports if they could get away with it.

Russia is far from down and out. They have many people, and many and varied nukes. My hope is for a negotiated settlement.

That doesn't seem reasonable.
Hand producing a few high tech items a year is not the same as mass producing 200 f-22s or 875 f-35s.

XX Century had two World Wars , they created enough death and economic destruction to keep modern capitalism afloat and thriving. This was the other side of the medal of attempts of possessing of Russia. Now we have something equal to WWIII in economic cost within attempt to topple Russia again. Without nukes we have WW that is ruining Europe, West and East. Even if they fail to topple the current Russian system at the end they will have Europe in economic ruin to rebuild. It will keep capitalism afloat for another 25 or so years, then there will be new opportunities.
