I tend to agree.

While I heard of Mr. Klitschko's "Kinzhal performance", I had not seen this photo previously.

He surely took some damage in his professional career, but even he is not that stupid - I think.

Perhaps deliberately over the top, to show to the conscious world that he does not believe in the neocon reality, and is open to accept the new reality when the time comes.

Which brings me to Meloni. Having defunct weapons delivered looks to me like keeping up the pretense, so as to not being punished by the empire. Perhaps the same goes for Germany and France.

This situation reminds me of wildlife documentary about wolf packs. As long as alpha leader appears strong, they knuckle under and follow. But as soon as he shows signs of weakness, they come at him all at once, and rip him apart.

Perhaps we can expect something like that happening with the EU and Nato.

EU and NATO will be relegated to the dustbin of history. ECB too. Warsaw Pact ended in 1991 and NATO should have died with it.

That would have happened, too, except for the fact that the Cabal needed to keep it alive to continue, well, the crap they have been doing for the last 30 years.

Eu and UK go down with US. The US has achieved a lot with Ukraine - destroying NS2 without Germany even saying anything was quite a feat.

There has always been a split about to happen between US trading world and China trading world. Rest of World was always likely to go to China and Russia had no real choice. It seems some last attempts by both China and Russia to give EU/UK some choice have been turned away. As a Brit (we are Muttley to the US Dick Dastardly) we can only blame ourselves.

Great analysis as always, Alex. The government here in the Netherlands is pushing through a draconian pandemic law to give themselves emergency powers when the next "pandemic" hits. To me it reeks of desperation. They can make as many laws as they like but if more and more people aren't paying it any heed then it don't amount too much.

Thank you Philip. I think you are right - if people don't obey, their laws have no effect.

Alex,

It does seem as if the air of desperation is getting thicker by the day. I have to wonder as well about the flailing going on domestically in the US as well. It seems the "Biden" administration and Davos continue to push narratives to the brink of crisis, i.e. the debt ceiling, media consolidation, etc., but can't seem to shake the 'saboteurs' as you put it off their positions.

Powell still looks like he wants to raise rates again.

Musk is still refusing to turn Twitter over to the commies

LIBOR is still on its way to the ashbin

Bakhmut is still falling

And now Russia is attacking the bridges to cut Moldova and Romania off from Odessa.

Meanwhile the Fiona Hill's of the Hill are starting to doubt the policy. When a member of the cabal as important as her starts telling the truth, you know something big is about to break.

Indeed. Things are at the breaking point and it seems irreversible. Now Jake Sullivan is talking to the Chimese, probanly hedging his bets and the Chinese really are sending a peace envoy to Ukraine.

Expand full comment

Apparently Sullivan, who is first and foremost a Team Biden political operative, is concerned about the 2024 election; that should the Ukraine conflict drag on it will drag down Biden's re-election prospects, which already seem shaky at best.

Fiona Hill is a long-time member of the liberal-fascist Council on Foreign Relations (CFR), along with SecState Antony Blinken. She is also a member of the Trilateral Commission, along with both Blinken and Jake Sullivan (NatSec).

As usual, CFR members on the "Biden team" include the secretaries of State, Treasury, Defense, Commerce and Homeland Security. Also the CIA director, Fed chairman, and dozens more.

The Davos WEF is an interlocking affiliate. Billionaires Larry Fink (BlackRock) and David Rubenstein (Carlyle) are WEF trustees. Fink is a CFR director and Rubenstein is the CFR chairman. Jerome Powell is a former Carlyle partner.

"Commies"? It seems you got locked into some outdated terminology, Tom, although I can concur with the rest. Can you give us a link to Fionna's wavering?

If you read and listen to his stuff, Tom uses this slur all the time; apparently he thinks it makes him sound kewl and edgy, and perhaps it resonates with his "libertarian" Boomer/Gen X audience, but anno 2023 I think it just sounds silly.

Tom, I agree in general but respecting Musk and Yaccarino, I think the most recent revelations indicate she's not totally "woke," just an opportunist. Banal.

Yes, it appears Russia is in no hurry to take Bakhmut, It's been useful, but it seems its grinding mechanism is running short of meat. Ukraine controls the supply.

Good news - yes that seems to be coming.

I'd say that the media are abandoning the fight with Russia and withdrawing to a position from where the reputation of MIC can be defended.

Didn't someone say that "Scoundrels are the last refuge of the Patriot" ?

On traitorship - I think you are being far too cautious in waiting for this to occur. 2014 and probably half the Ukrainian officers jumped ship and joined LPR/DPR. After all speaking Russian and getting on well with other Soviets had been a key advantage in the Ukrainian Army even after 1990.

I suspect most of Ukraine harbours many many traitors. The Nazis certainly think it does - hence all the bullying behaviour and taping to lamp posts. My guess is that Russian intelligence's only problem is working out who to rely on and who to ignore.

Yes, huge problems; it makes the losing team more and more paranoid the less confident they feel about their own future which in turn makes them increasingly dangerous. At some point they invite the whole rest of the society to turn on them and spell their own doom.

I hope you right Alex. And thank you very much for clearing situation again. My main concern that a lot of people very weak and just “ go about daily life” without even realizing bigger picture. I am very much worried, for the reason i mentioned above, that the hatred will last in generations. It’s hard to swallow bitter truth and i am in the very ashamed of some members even in my own family

I have acquaintances from the former Yugoslavia. None of them want to specifically identify as 'Serbian' or 'Bosnian' or 'Croatian' or 'Slovenian' -- at least not when it means to identify divisions. Certainly they live in one of the former Yugo republics, and they are proud of their history; but it seems to me that the last thing they want to do is to maintain or re-kindle the conflicts and hatred that have been pushed on them by their overlords for 500 years.

I suggest that this is representative of humanity everywhere -- people are OK with the idea of a 'national identity' whatever it might be -- but they really do not want to keep the hatreds of the past alive. They want to build a better future for themselves and their offspring. Pretty much universally, around the world. There are still things they are proud of as Serbs or Croats -- but the rest of it, they'd prefer to forget.

Yes, correct - this is my distinct impression too. There's a vague sense now that we'd been manipulated into wars and hatreds for someone else's agenda. In fact, people now seem very happy to make friendships and reconnect with peoples across the divide.

Great insights, Alex. I'd encourage you to reframe just a bit and think of the current western governments more like an extended and extensive criminal cartel.

This lens makes it far easier to understand the many contradictory and self defeating actions.

So, for example, the apparent traitors and moles. In a cartel, the members are loyal only to a very limited and self interested extent. Getting rich, keeping power, staying alive. When another Cartel member threatens any of those 3 priorities then others can and will take action. Imagine the US government as one crime Syndicate made up of many families and within families individual members w competing agendas. The Military Industrial Complex is one family and they're on board w war in Ukraine so long as it doesn't threaten their other interests. But once it appears that the Neocon crime family is driving the Syndicate over the cliff, well that's not going to work. So there are leaks, there are investigations, there are articles and speeches at variance w the Official Narrative. It's internecine fighting and may they all lose.

The key will be watching to see which crime family openly plays itself as the Good Guy and turns rat against the others. It will have to be a powerful faction as the blowback will be literal murder. But it's coming.

Hi Ginned Up - thank you and what a great feedback. Indeed, I think that this is the essence of why the cabal's whole house of cards is so fragile. They incentivize their troops with monetary rewards and attract to their cause amoral opportunists whose loyalty is only as firm as long as they see gain in serving the agenda. As soon as they're not sure about those gains, or someone else has a better offer, they're ready to jump ship and even turn on them. Today China and Russia now control considerably greater economic power than London and New York. Once that economic power has a solid and widely used financial infrastructure, it is game over for the cabal.

Exactly. This also speaks to the question many debate--- are they incompetent or evil? The answer is "yes."

The crime families and Syndicate heads are evil and all too competent. But by necessity they must employ and use hosts of useful idiots, zealous idealogues, opportunists, drones, and clueless bureaucrats. Only the ones at the top need to know the plan or share the real design. For the rest it's shut up and do as you're told.

Now they are hitting real friction w China and Russia and the Global South. How the Cartel will respond as the factions start turf wars and jumping ship will be life or death for many. Thanks for your work, Alex!

"...the cabal is facing a festering conspiracy of disaffected officials, lukewarm supporters and outright enemies burrowing to sabotage the cabal’s agenda."

Sure, but let's not delude ourselves. Particularly about the moles. At any time, for any project, in any sphere, you have people going along to get along. And when the going gets bad, the doubts start to come out, the finger-pointing starts. We are all familiar with this. It's called human nature.

The entire Globohomo project is supported by tens of thousands of "the elite" who are merely careerists. They see it as an easy ticket to power and prestige. After all, what has a Justin Trudeau or an Ahern or Marin or most others got to offer? They are mediocrities. (Though Marin is kind of cute, and Justin has great hair.)

The Kiev regime is beginning to crack. Soon it will have a hundred knives in its back planted by the likes of Milley and Scholz and Blinken. But this will NOT derive from principled conviction. Just more opportunism. That's all we have any more from the Elite, except for a few, Like Julian Assange. And look where he is.

I saw the tweet you posted from Zelensky's visit to the Vatican. It is a picture of three things in a triangle: the Pope, Zelensky, and a painting of the Madonna and Child in the orthodox style. But someone blacked out the Child. Oh my. What is going on???

Yes, and Zelensky's whole delegation turned up in their fatigues, sweat and pub-wear. The painting, I think was deliberately done with Jesus blacked out. I don't know what kind of imagination it takes not to see that as an affront and a blasphemy.

I think the cabal is preparing the ground for an easy pivot on not just Ukraine but global warming too. Why else would the Club of Rome commission and publish a population study that demolishes the need for taking action on climate change?

Interesting. I'll have to consider that even that is an act of sabotage. Many of these programs, when analyzed to their logical conclusions lead to radical depopulation and I think that most people, even those who are very close to the cabal aren't onboard with that. The psychopathic degenerates who are ready to do away with billions of people and actually pull the trigger must be very, very few. But there's another element: the last three years proved that the cabal is not only barking mad, they're also stunningly incapable and incompetent. It's a tall order for anyone to stand loyal to an agenda that is utterly monstrous, and managed by idiots.

Well, I think personally that diabolical agendas have not only their strong, driving adherents but also their negotiators. If the more direct path starts to look like it's running into trouble, then the negotiators come in and prepare the ground for a pivot, should it be needed. Falling back and regrouping, waiting a while, is always preferable to losing outright.

Thus, having the Club commission a report that could, if needed, scientifically demolish the need for action on climate change could be expedient if, say, the MIC needs to up industrial capitalism in order to fight the Chinese.

These guys survive by constantly being ahead of the ball, constantly keeping options open.

Well, maybe. But I believe that the people at the very top are more like drunken gamblers - they can't stand losing and as John Kenneth Galbraith had diagnosed, they will always sooner risk their own total and utter destruction rather than give up any part of their privilege. I think the class that is ready to hedge their bets by throwing their agenda under the bus are the more intelligent underlings, and I believe we're now seeing this happen. And it should be interesting: their sense of impunity has encouraged them into all sorts of unspeakable behaviors. Their closets are full of things to hide and this gives their underlings leverage: let me off the hook and I'll give evidence against XYZ...

Stunningly incompetent sums it up for me.

The Empire has had a great run for about 600 years. They haven't always won. The Romans almost wiped them out in their first civil war, and they were almost wiped out again during the Black Death. They keep coming back for more.

They crossed the Rubicon with the Scamdemic. It woke millions up, including me. There is no going back, for them, or us.
