The sole adult in the war room is evident from the remarks made everywhere urging Russia to bomb Ukraine to bits and Russia refuses to bomb Ukraine into bits. The Russians are definitely the side that did not want conflict at all and it has become very obvious that the West desires even more and more war…
and…
Wheelbarrows should be flying off the shelves because Americans are going to suffer through a hyperinflation that makes Zimbabwe’s moment in glory look tame…

No one doubted that American legislators would approve “help” to a gang of neo-Nazis. It was a vote of joyful US bastards:
a) for the continuation of the civil war of the divided people of our previously united country;
b) for maximizing the number of victims of this war.
We, of course, will win, despite the 61 billion bloody dollars that will mainly go down the throat of their insatiable military-industrial complex. Strength and Truth are behind us.
But taking into account the Russophobic decision that took place, I cannot with all sincerity help but wish the United States to plunge into a new civil war as quickly as possible. Which, I hope, will be radically different from the war between North and South in the 19th century and will be waged using aircraft, tanks, artillery, MLRS, all types of missiles and other weapons. And which will finally lead to the inglorious collapse of the vile evil empire of the 21st century – the United States of America.

Right now Kim Jong Un is one of the few world leaders that sees and admits where all this is going and is taking steps to prepare for it…
The West may make fun of him, but he seems to have his act together more than the Western Woke Power Elites that think they can click those ruby red shoes from Oz three times and make everything go their way…
