We're coming up on Month 5 of the fabled four week Ukrainian offensive that was to have pushed the Russians back to Moscow by August. The Ukranians are estimated to have taken more than a quarter of a million casualties, are almost totally out of armored vehicles and are largely down to attacking in waves like zombies by drugging their conscripted soldiers with methamphetamine. We've even seen the most blatant attempt at a CIA color revolution in our lifetimes in the form of the hastily aborted Wagner rebellion, and the company has since largely been absorbed into the Russian Ministry of Defense. And we've finally started seeing fatigue set in within the US political system as the normally cowardly cuckolds of the Republican party are now suggesting that pouring a third of the defense budget into the most corrupt country on earth might have been a bad idea.
Thus I ask, how do you think the conflict will be resolved?
One small caveat, since I haven't seen this mentioned much on the site. The Russians officially consider the United States a belligerent in the war, and won't accept negotiations brokered by the US government. Turns out lend lease isn't a trick that works twice.
Now that the average age of a frontline Ukraine soldier is like 40; Meaning 20-60 year olds being black-bagged off the streets and thrown into the artillery grinder, I would think it wont be too long before Zelenskyy is hauled out into the streets by his own people and flayed, or he sees it coming and flees to Switzerland to one of his new mountain homes.
Barring that, the proxy war only ends when the US stops sending billions.
That would be nice.
How do you suppose the US and others making bank on the war would react to that? A revolving door of puppet dictators?
Yeah. There's some talk that Zelenskyy hasn't really been in Ukraine much, just green screening it from safer locations. I imagine they'll just install a new yes-man to NATO. It can't be someone too hardline in either direction, because Blackrock needs to be able to continue to snatch up all that farmland/wheat. They need a puppet gov that will enforce their rebuilding contracts. E.g. debt Ukraine will never be able to pay back, selling off their landmarks and infrastructure and being a serfdom to globohomo.
Blackrock then dumps the wheat at super low prices into the surrounding countries, crashing the profits of the locals, and then buying up their property when they are forced to sell off assets.
