Dnipro, Tuesday morning, 19 Nov

After Sunday/Monday missile strikes power generation and distribution is now more damaged than ever before. Power in the whole country is effected, lucky areas are 4 hours off, 5 hours on, some, like parts of Odessa, Kharkiv and Zaporoshnye are still without power.

News of the lifting of strikes into Russia, even though the news is very conflicted, and frankly bizarrely contradicted often, has not been received well in Ukraine. People are furious, they understand the reality, and the ramifications for Ukrainians which will result from any strike into Russian territory. Many of us wonder what is the difference, Ukraine has been targeting Crimea, Kursk, Bryan's and Belgorod every day for 2 years, so what if a rocket can go an extra 100 km, the fact is, given Russian dominance at the front, these rockers will have to be fired 100 km further west than they were even 6 months ago.

This is just giving zelensky his desire to convert this conflict into ww3, which he believes is his inky way to survive. Unfortunately for him, just as hitler didn't survive ww2, his fate is going to be no difference.

Russia will deal with these strikes, and again, the losers will be the West, but the lives of Ukrainians will be further negatively impacted. This is the true goal of this proxy conflict. The West wants to create a hatred between Ukrainians and Russians which will serve to contain Russia, but they have it completely wrong. It is the West that are being blamed for this conflict in Ukraine now, there is a growing sense of betrayal and hatred that is growing against the West.

This will not end well for them.

Dnipro, 18 August, morning

Big changes here in Dnipro. Businesses closing down faster than I have ever seen. Protests now in most major cities, being reported as pro federov but this isn't true, they are people and businesses protesting about economic conditions, lack of labour, an inability to get products imported without paying huge bribes and many companies just closing as they can see the writing on the wall as winter approaches. People are scrambling now, food stocks and other supermarket goods are starting to run low in some stores, and constant attacks against Nova Poshta are devastating e-commerce.

For the first time today I saw humanitarian trucks giving out food and clothing in Dnipro. They won't start distributing till 10, but already a crowd of people. Unthinkable even 6 months ago.

Fuel strikes are causing supply issues outside the main city areas, and people are planning to leave. I know of one group of 40 or so men who crossed the Tysa River into Romania last week, am told more ...

I remember saying some weeks back that this is how they keep the actual death count numbers from getting out. They make families sign NDAs to keep them from talking or they won’t get survivors benefits. And now he’s doing it publicly. The man is ABSOLUTE scum!

Larry Johnson:

“Maximum pressure” can inflict maximum pain; the currency collapse proves that. What it can no longer reliably produce is surrender, because a state that imports through Pakistani roads, finances through a BRICS bank, sells its oil for yuan beyond the dollar’s reach, and fights under a shield that Moscow and Beijing help repair has room to endure that the Iran of 2015 did not.
Bessent may yet unveil measures the world has never seen. He cannot unveil a world in which Iran has nowhere left to go, and no currency left to trade in but the dollar — because that world no longer exists.

A quick commentary on the "Piss Summit"
I might not be able to upload much more or do lives for a while

My Fellow Duranianss.

Yes, it's happened again. I have been assaulted by a vicious Malware Bot Virus or whatever 911 Socks is and this thing is bad ! 

However I wanted to give you a "peace" of my mind concerning the "Piece" or piss, as Elensky calls it, as this thing fell to pieces before it even happened.

Coincidentally on the very SAME DAY  this crap happened Saudi Arabia DROPPED the US Petrodollar as a buying currency and NO ONE absolutely NO ONE is talking about this fact anywhere !!!

 

Hope to see you all asap.
