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.

The Οbvious Way Out of the Disastrous Iran War

The US can still avoid strategic defeat and economic chaos - but only if it accepts a pragmatic deal by Alexander Mercouris.

The US actually has an obvious way out of its disastrous war against Iran and the mess it finds itself in the Middle East and with the global economy:

(1) Send a proper negotiating team to meet the Iranians. Ditch Witkoff and Kushner.

(2) On nuclear enrichment take the deal on offer;

(i) a 5 year moratorium on uranium enrichment;

(ii) enrichment up to 3.6% thereafter;

(iii) dilution of the existing stockpile which however remains in Iran;

(iv) the return of the IAEA inspectors (surprisingly the Iranians apparently agreed to this before the war);

(v) no sunset clauses.

(3) Agree a full lifting of sanctions. This should be done immediately NOT in a phased way with the primary agent being the UN Security Council. By now the Iranians deeply mistrust any phased removal of sanctions and would probably not agree to it. Besides phasing the removal of the sanctions keeps the US tied in, when the ...

I once met a young Israeli man in Amsterdam who was so soft spoken and mild mannered that I couldn't believe he was Israeli! 😜

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.
