Mistakes from last time. China and Russia two largest economies, meant US and china. Wagner group was in Belarus close to Russian border, meant Ukrainian border.
Going after Crimea is a definitive escalation. Russians have been there 14 years. They know you have to control it to control the country.
July 17th Kerch Bridge hit. 12 miles, second time.
July 17th Russia pulls out of grain deal brokered by…drum roll plz…Turkey and the UN.
July 18th Three Key ports on Black sea hit, in the Odessa region. (They are out of missiles they said)
July 19th (Reuters AP) - Russia warned that from Thursday any ships sailing to Ukraine's Black Sea ports would be seen as potentially carrying military cargoes, as Kyiv accused Moscow of carrying out "hellish" overnight strikes that damaged grain export infrastructure.
“Russia's Defence Ministry said flag states of ships travelling to Ukrainian ports would be considered parties to the conflict on the Ukrainian side.”
Russia attacked the Odesa region for the second consecutive night after quitting on Monday a year-old deal allowing the safe passage of Ukrainian grain through the Black Sea, a decision that prompted the United Nations to warn it risked creating hunger around the world.
Revelation 6:5–6
When He broke the third seal, I heard the third living creature saying, "Come." I looked, and behold, a black horse; and he who sat on it had a pair of scales in his hand. And I heard something like a voice in the center of the four living creatures saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius; but do not damage the oil and the wine."
July 19th A considerable part of the grain export infrastructure at Chornomorsk port southwest of Odesa was damaged, Agriculture Minister Mykola Solsky said, adding that 60,000 tons of grain had been destroyed.
The Black Sea deal was brokered by the U.N. and Turkey in July last year to combat a global food crisis worsened by Russia's February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The two countries are among the world's top grain exporters.
Grain Exports
In 2021 the top exporters of Wheat were Russia ($8.92B), (20 years ago they weren’t in the top 20) United States ($7.83B), Australia ($7.36B), Canada ($6.91B), and Ukraine ($5.87B). 14.79 billion if combined…almost twice as large as the #2 exporter the US. Do you see now why he is leaving the majority of the country intact? What exactly could “the west” do or try to do to the worlds largest exporter of grain?
“Russia says it could return to the grain deal, but only if its demands are met for rules to be eased for its own exports of food and fertilizer. Western countries call that an attempt to use leverage over food supplies to force a weakening in financial sanctions, which already allow Russia to sell food.
(Those were a combination of reports from AP/Reuters)
July 21st - Bill McLoughlin
21 July 2023 Russia’s Black Sea fleet conducted live fire drills on Friday days after the Kremlin pulled out of the vital grain deal. In a video released by the Russian defence ministry, the ship, the Ivanovets was seen launching rockets at a target to rehearse “apprehending an offending vessel”. The country’s defence ministry said its Black Sea Fleet was rehearsing closing off areas that had temporarily been ruled off limits to shipping in order to launch practice rockets. The drill comes after Russia pulled out of the Black Sea Grain Initiative (BSGI) which was agreed last year. Kyiv subsequently said it wanted to set up a temporary shipping route to try and continue its grain exports. The deal, brokered by the UN, had ensured safe passage for vessels crossing the Black Sea but as of Thursday (July 20th), the Kremlin said any ship passing through the area would be treated as a target.”
THEY WOULD NOT BE DOING IT IF THEY DIDNT KNOW THAT THEY COULD DO IT. THEIR NAVY HAS SHIPS WITH HYPERSONIC MISSILE THAT FLY FASTER AND HAVE GREATER RANGE THAN OUR SHIPS MISSILES AND OUR AIRCRAFT on our aircraft carriers. THE US OR NATO WILL NOT GET CLOSE ENOUGH TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT AND WE KNOW IT, SO DO THE RUSSIANS. I Told you the real war is just now starting. “Just send some good ole American muscle in there to clean that mess up” Syria…Vietnam…afganistan…Iraq…
July 25 (Reuters) KYIV - Russian air strikes on Ukrainian grain facilities on the Danube this week threaten a vital river route for Kyiv's exports, as Moscow seeks to tighten the noose around a key sector of the economy days after abandoning the Black Sea shipping deal. Strikes threaten vital Danube route for grain exports. Route grows more important after demise of Black Sea deal. Danube grain warehouses struck on Monday. Bottleneck of vessels forms on Danube channel. Some insurers review provision for Danube ports.
If you have read/heard about four people dying in a disrespectful submarine voyage to the titanic wreckage, than you have about global food prices being increased for the foreseeable future? You might wanna ask yourself just why that is exactly.
(You have to see/understand the chess board Putin is playing on. He wants to raise prices on grains/oils to developing and third world countries. The more they have to pay for food? The less they have to pay their debt to the IMF/Global bank. He wants them to default on their IMF payments. These are the “pay day” lenders of the world set up to help w rebuilding Europe after WW2. Thing is nowadays? Developing and third world countries go to them to get loans for infrastructure/hospitals/schools/roads/fuel/water etc…and yes as always in some cases for their leaders own greed and corruption. It’s like a loan shark/loan from the mob…once you started? Good luck ever paying it off or getting out from underneath it. Just because these countries default doesn’t mean they still dont need infrastructure, they still do…They are going to have to look for alternative funding from somebody from somewhere…

“The growing debt of poor countries is alarming but there is no evidence of a contagion that could trigger a global crisis. Yet.”
“About 60 per cent of low-income developing countries are now either high risk or in debt distress and have either had, or are about to start, a debt restructuring process. This figure was 40 percent before the pandemic…(Woe #2, Financial crisis was woe #1…”A woe is a warning of impending doom…”Well you don’t know that…ect, make argument…) The debt situation was compounded by Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, which led to an increase in global commodity and food prices.”

A new world order? BRICS nations offer alternative to West DW.com 4/10/23 (State owned German media outlet)
Challenging the World Bank model
In 2014, with $50 billion (around €46 billion) in seed money, the BRICS nations launched the New Development Bank as an alternative to the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. In addition, they created a liquidity mechanism called the Contingent Reserve Arrangement to support members struggling with payments.
These offers were not only attractive to the BRICS nations themselves, but also to many other developing and emerging economies that had had painful experiences with the IMF's structural adjustment programs and austerity measures. (Fuck you pay me!) This is why many countries said they might be interested in joining the BRICS group.
NIGER coup…2 billion a year, 1100 troops on 2 bases fighting ISIL and Islamic extremeist. 7th largest producer of Uranium. Leader of Wagner group said, “Were ready.”
This is what they are driving the third world and developing nations to. Not just about killing the Ukrainian economy. Not one, not one, of the 30-40 articles I’ve read from multiple financial experts, gurus etc across different continents, political leanings etc on the dollars dedollarization? Not one has ever mentioned this. This is why the de$ization will happen quicker than what you are being told it will. Bowl judgements get poured out quickly (Use prop 😊. Covid took decades? Inflation took decades?...
Why? Why? do you think you get more info about four people in a sub dying in the north Atlantic than you do all of this? It’s a legitimate question that you might wanna think about it for a second.
Speaking of which:
Uninsured depositors remain a ticking time bomb for the U.S. banking system
Lawrence J. White Fortune Mon, July 24,
Not to mention the commercial real estate loan crisis that hasn’t even started yet. Not to mention the trillion $ of uninsured foreign deposits held at JP Morgan Chase and Citi.
FDIC Seizure of Foreign Deposits at SVB Opens Pandora's Box at JPMorgan Chase and Citi – Which Hold a Combined $1 Trillion in Foreign Deposits with No FDIC Insurance Wall Street on parade. May 15, 2023 ~
What the Wall Street Journal has actually done with this report is to open a Pandora’s box regarding the vast sums of foreign deposits held in foreign branches of JPMorgan Chase and Citigroup’s Citibank – none of which are covered by FDIC insurance. It further raises the question as to why the banking regulators of these two Wall Street mega banks have allowed this dangerous situation to occur. (Greed)
According to the year-end call report filed by Citibank, it held a stunning $622.6 billion of deposits in foreign offices. (See page 34 of call report.) According to the year-end call report filed by JPMorgan Chase Bank N.A., it held $426 billion in deposits in foreign offices. (See page 34 of the linked report.) Together, these two banks held just over $1 trillion in deposits on foreign soil – which had no U.S. deposit insurance backing.”
“Combining domestic and foreign uninsured deposits versus the $1.4 trillion Citibank held in total deposits at year end, means that 87 percent of Citibank’s deposit base lacked FDIC insurance protection.”
(Remember Credit Suisse? The failed Swiss bank? That was troubled for a long time? The Saudis poured in as much of their $ as they could, waited for the right moment, then yanked it out and it collapsed literally overnight. They even told you they were going to do it a few days ahead of time. WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH FORGEIN DEPOSITS AGAIN?)
Discernment Alert
The real question I got is this: How can an economic professor at NYU write an article about uninsured deposits and leave out FORGEIN uninsured deposits. He either didn’t know about it, he intentionally left it out, or it was censored, none of those three options is very good. Discernment. Knowing whats being said by whats not being said. There is a definite agenda being pushed, most definitely. Or you wouldn’t have heard so much about the sub collapsing in the north Atlantic.
INFLATION is down to 3%. My aren’t we lucky. Don’t ya feel better? Don’t you just wanna go out and pluck down 250,000 for a new home rn? Don’t we all have so much more spending $ right now? Don’t hold your breath. We are just now starting to see the effects of Opec+ and Russian oil production cuts of 1.5 million barrels a day. We can not take out of the SPR any more, we’ve already done that about as much as we can. (Did a better job longer than I would have thought.) Always remember: “Petrochemicals derived from oil and natural gas make the manufacturing of over 6,000 everyday products and high-tech devices possible.” And there is a lag in between the price of oil going up and the rise in the prices of the consumer products that oil and natural gas go into.
The fed simply has no tools to tweak food and energy supplies. (Opec+ and Russia sure do)
India now has AI news anchors. I tuned in and within the first 5 minutes, it's clear that news presenters are in serious trouble. July 25th Yahoo Finance
India has a new AI-generated news anchor called Lisa.
Upon closer inspection, Lisa's slow blinking and stuttering motion was definitely unsettling to see. (The uncanny valley is a term used to describe the relationship between the human-like appearance of a robotic object and the emotional response it evokes. In this phenomenon, people feel a sense of unease or even revulsion in response to humanoid robots that are highly realistic.)
AI-generated anchors presented the news in India for the first time in April, the South China Morning Post reported. One of them, named Lisa, is now a news presenter on Odisha TV, a local station broadcasting in eastern India.
Lisa can also be found on Odisha TV's Twitter account. Videos uploaded state the presenter's name but do not specifically mention that Lisa is AI-generated.
If you're just listening to the news while being surrounded by the low hum and chatter of the office, you could easily mistake her for a human.
In other words, she's an acceptable match for a 24-hour medium that's often left playing in the background of offices, cafes, and hospital rooms.
The era of AI news readers isn't just on the horizon, this robotic revolution is already here. Today, Lisa joins the legion of other AI-generated presenters employed by newsrooms in Indonesia, Taiwan, Kuwait, Malaysia, and China.
(When you can’t tell humans from nonhumans? When we have multitudes of people being openly proud of their hostility to their creator in the streets? How much longer you really think we have?
I got laughed at for saying I had seen this technology on a trial run years ago. (2x actually). The tech I saw then was far more advanced than this. So how far is it along these days?
There is one creator of the life force. ONE. The clay doesn’t get to say to the potter, “I’m going to design a better brain than the one you gave me.” Especially given the fact that the human brain is the most complex thing in the universe. You might wanna think for a minute about why that is, how did that come to be. Theres one book tells you man was made in gods image…One… It is the height of idolatry, a life form that is not supposed to be here will be eliminated. You can take that to the bank. (insured deposit) We have precedent here. Genesis 6. If you never believed any word I ever said believe this, This alone, in and of itself, is reason enough for an extermination of the wicked and the Exodus of the righteous to their home, let alone any other of the signs on the fig tree, Deception, love waxed cold, wars and rumors of wars, increased wickedness being the new normal, pestilence, famine etc…The creation of a form of life that was not of the creator? This alone is more than enough to tell you what we are entering into.
GRACE
I love the Methodist church and I am proud of its history. Not to proud of what its going through rn but it was way ahead of its time back in the day. Always found it interesting the Methodist church wasn’t supposed to be a church 😊.
Methodist went after the marginalized and the oppressed. Preached to The slaves and the native Americans. Supported womens right to vote. Set up prison ministries, went to share croppers, tenant farmers, poor people etc…circuit riders…
Our Book of Discipline, (sets forth the plan by which we United Methodists govern ourselves) defines grace as "the undeserved, unmerited, and loving action of God in human existence through the ever-present Holy Spirit." Grace pervades all of creation and is universally present. Grace is not a gift that God packages and bestows on us and creation. Grace is God's presence to create, heal, forgive, reconcile and transform human hearts, communities and the entire creation. Wherever God is present, there is grace! Grace brought creation into existence. Grace birthed human beings, bestowed on us the divine image, redeemed us in Jesus Christ.
Wesley’s concept of grace included:
Prevenient (comes b4, its present in cosmic soup etc)
Justifying (switch got turned on, lightbulb moment)
Sanctifying (Now the one light becomes a chandelier)
Glorifying grace “enables you to be fully conformed to the image of Christ in the New Creation.”
“According to Catholic theology, God offers a gift of love, known as divine grace, to all of humanity. This gift of divine grace is the gift of redemption and forgiveness of sins from God that is offered to everyone who decides to acknowledge and accept it.”
Offered to everyone but not everyone is going to be able to acknowledge and accept it.
Already excluding some people here, this is offered for all, but not all are going to accept/take it).
You have to believe it in order to accept it. Otherwise its not faith.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For it is by grace you have been saved through faith, and this not from yourselves; it is the gift of God, not by works, so that no one can boast.…
No faith? Then you are not saved/redeemed etc and there is No grace..
It’s Open to all but there are conditions, 2 so far, You have to accknoledge and accept it, and you have to have faith in it.
IF? you accept it? and have faith in it? You WILL repent of your sins as a natural outcome of your acceptance of it and your faith in it. You will feel the holy spirit come upon you and you will want to confess yours sins and turn from your old ways. Your life will do a complete 180. It will happen if you accept it.
Luke 13:3 (Christ)
I tell you, no; but unless you repent you will all likewise perish.
So now we have three criteria set up for accepting Gods unmerited favor:
1)Acknowledge and accept it, 2) Have faith in it 3) YOU have to repent of your old sinful ways. Your lust (craving) for power prestige money importance etc…
You will live a different life than you were before accepting his grace. This is the proof of your acceptance.
Romans 12:2
Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. (Neuroscientist, acausal sychnonicities article, “Leave your rational mind behind”) Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
You will see things through spiritual eyes and not material ones. “We live out God's will when we change our thoughts to God's thoughts, rather than living like the world dictates. The world will always pressure us to live sinfully and selfishly, but to live the good life God wants from us requires changing how we behave—by changing our thoughts.”
If you have honestly accepted his gift of unmerited favor? You will live a changed life, others will be able to tell there has been a change in you.
Open to all:
Who 1) Acknowledge and accept it, 2) Have faith in it 3) That have willfully repented 4) who shamelessly live out their faith that others can see/tell they think different from us, they are not like us/ they do things different, your life and your actions, thoughts behaviors will openly demonstrate this for all around you to see. (You will try to Live as holy a life as possible)
Here is the one criterion that I believe trips up more believers than any other qualification:
You have to discern (figure out) what is Gods will for your life? And even that’s not good enough, once you figure out what it is? You have to do it or Christ himself will disown you at the appointed time. (Judgement)
True Disciples
Matthew 7 21-23
21 “Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven. Only those who actually do the will of my Father in heaven will enter. 22 On judgment day many will say to me, ‘Lord! Lord! We prophesied in your name and cast out demons in your name and performed many miracles in your name.’ 23 But I will reply, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who break God’s laws.’
So that’s:
Open to all Who 1) Acknowledge and accept it, 2) Have faith in it 3) That repent 4) Try to Live a holy (set apart/different) a life as they can, and 5) you have to figure out/know his will for your life and then you have to do it.
“Man that sounds like a lot of work! Yeah, it is, but an eternity of bliss with no sorrows worth it.
Acknowledge and accepting Gods grace is the easy part, then the work begins. (Working out of life long trauma example.)
One other thing that I think doesn’t get mentioned enough in churches because nobody really wants to hear about it anymore is this:
THE OFFER OF GODS UNMERITED FAVOR COMES TO A CLOSE. IT IS A LIMITED TIME OFFER. IT HAS AN EXPIRATION DATE. YOU ONLY HAVE SO LONG TO ACCEPT IT. IT DOES NOT CONTINUE FOREVER! (LED ZEP, STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN LYRIC…WRONG!)
The Parable of the Weeds Explained
Matthew 13:39-40
English Standard Version
The harvest is the end of the age, and the reapers are angels. Just as the weeds are gathered and burned with fire, so will it be at the end of the age.
Remember I told you a lot of what I liked about the Methodist church and its history at the beginning of this? (Five different Methodist churches you might think you were in five different denomination’s…😊 Now Im going to tell you what I don’t like about it (and not just the Methodist church but plenty of others these days) and Im going to make a lot of people mad and make some other members of the body of Christ happy:
Goes like this:
A lack of focus on repentance has led to unrepentant homosexuals thinking its okay for them to marry in the church and lead worship for others, and that’s not even good enough you have to be accepting of it. Tolerance/Accommodation/Acceptance/Love they call it. Well call it whatever you want. There is and has been a serious lack of focus on repentance in the Methodist church as well as others. I believe this to be historical fact. I think this is a hard argument for someone to repute/rebuke. I understand I have a southern Baptist background. I got tired of hellfire and brimstone shoved down my throat 24/7. But now that I’ve been away from that long enough? I miss it from time to time, so I go see my good buddy right down the road who aint afraid to light you up so to speak.
Another point I wanna make here is this: What makes your sexuality some sort of privilege to be unrepentant that is not extended to other sinners? Why are you so special based on your sexuality? Where in the scripture supports this notion? Here's what I’m getting at:
Revelation 22:15 Who didn’t make the cut basically
Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.
So why are we being told its okay for unrepentant homosexuals to lead worship when we all know that we wouldn’t be tolerant or accepting of a person who practices witchcraft doing the same? The dark arts? Everybody who thinks unrepentant murders should lead services raise your hand? Unrepentant idolaters? Unrepentant lovers of deceit should lead services?
It’s nonsense and the people pushing this agenda know it. They know exactly what time it is and exactly what they are doing. I just want one of these people who think its okay to be a unrepentant homosexual ect…(add your own alphabet soup) to come explain to me why their sexuality gives them special rights to lead worship or marry in the church but other unrepentant sinners aren’t afforded the same curtesy and in fact the book says they are left outside the kingdom of heaven with the dogs…Come lay it on (Kid rock) me cause I got all day to listen to you, and believe me I got ears that hear and eyes that see and I want somebody, anybody please…come explain to me why does your sexuality gets you preferred status other unrepentant sinners don’t get…
2 Peter 2:1-3
False Teachers and Their Destruction
2 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them—bringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.
“Well we have to love them and be accommodating and accepting of them, and tolerant of them we’re sinners too”. True, to the alphabet soup tribe? Our door is always open, come on in, we will figure it out together with ya…but remember this:
LOVE WITHOUT TRUTH IS A LIE. If your unrepentant? Your soul ends up in Hell. God didn’t want you to go there he gave you a lifeboat in Christ (ark) and if you say NO!, I’ll do it my way? That’s exactly wats going to happen Hate me all you want, most people probably already do, that’s an awful long line you’re in. Love comes from God, its why you cant prove it exist w a mathematical theorem BTW, (Have pity on those…😊)
1 John 4:19 We love because he first loved us. There is not a lie in it. I have been, I am and I will continue to be: “accommodating/accepting and tolerant of the alphabet soup tribe, and to show them love… My Family and friends that know me well know very well know I have been. But understand this. There is no lie in love. (Ig etc…)
ONE OF THE WAYS THAT YOU CAN RECOGNIZE A FALSE TEACHER IS THIS.
THEY WILL ONLY TALK ABOUT LOVE, MERCY, GRACE, FORGIVENESS, THE PROMISES OF GOD, AND ALL THE GREAT THINGS GOD WILL DO FOR YOU. HE WILL ALSO PREACH A (( FALSE GRACE )) WHICH IS A LICENSE FOR IMMORALITY. (JUDE 1:4)
HOWEVER, THEY WILL REFUSE TO TALK ABOUT GOD'S WRATH, ETERNAL JUDGEMENT, ANGER, SEVERITY, HELL FIRE, SELF DENIAL, HOLY LIVING, OBEDIENCE, SELF SACRIFICE, AND OUR NEED TO REPENT. (Word of the hour speaker said last night…)
Prosperity Preacher…OMG…
They Haven’t heard a word I said. Somebody here where I live at a local establishment pretty much insinuated that I was a preacher of the prosperity Gospel. I wanna thank them for giving me the opportunity for this teaching point. Nothing could be farther from the truth. It was only out of respect to my friend who is the proprietor of the establishment that I didn’t go back in and ask an individual a few questions.
Few points to be made here:
1) Preachers of the prosperity gospel say look what happened to me, it can happen to you too. I have never ever said or written that anywhere at any time ever. In fact what I have been saying is quite the opposite, what I’ve been saying is what Ive been commissioned to say and it’s this, “Hells coming and you can’t change it and you better get your soul ready for it. Cause this gig is up.”
2) What happened to me? Quite simply can’t happen to you. Sorry you’re missing the point. There is only one Revelation chapter 11. (Two witnesses) There is only one 1st woe (Financial crisis 2008) there is only one second woe (covid) both were worldwide in their impact and one set up the stage for the other. The fact that the two witnesses come on the scene near the end of the second woe means they show up right before the start of the end. Actually, their arrival announces that start of the last of Daniels 70 7’s. That’s the start of the end times…It only is ever going to happen once so it can’t be you and it can’t happen to you
3) I’ve said all along, if you make this about people/personalities and material things? You are going to miss the point. Looks like somebody did. I don’t do very well with shallow hollow people with nothing to say that I can hear from everybody else, I just don’t. If you missed the message of repentance cause were getting near the end? And you instead are fixated on people and things? Tells me a lot about intelligence level etc…and your ears and eyes and how they see and hear etc…Matthew 13:57, a prophet without honor… They refused to believe in his teaching because they considered him one of themselves and therefore without authority to preach to them. Big mistake…
4) Revelation 2:17 To him that overcomes will I give to eat of the hidden manna… I Lived it, overcame and I have ate of the hidden mana…
5) 2 Peter 1:4
Through these he has given us his very great and precious promises, so that through them you may participate in the divine nature, having escaped the corruption in the world caused by evil desires.
I have participated in the divine nature and I am not the least bit shy about coming here and telling you about it…at least some of it anyway, hopefully here soon WE can get everything said that needs to be.
“The two most powerful people since old testament times are walking this earth right now and they are joining forces here before long” I remember the spirit saying through me a lil while back…
If Don’t think so?
Go find the other guy who was telling people about there being synthetic humans on this earth over two years ago and was getting laughed at…and just happened to also say were gonna print to much $ and its going to lead to rampant inflation in March of 2020. Right when Covid hit BTW…
One more lil thing then I gotta wrap this up…
Ask your self who does this sound like?
“Should NATO as NATO be involved vis-a-vis China? And, of course, the perennial issue of NATO versus the European Union -- what should the European states be doing in terms of defense? Because the other elephant in the room is the recognition that sooner or later the United States' focus is going to be drawn to the Pacific region. Is Europe capable of holding the security situation in the absence of a major American commitment?”
“The Russians have shown they can sustain a level of operations in Ukraine -- and, by the way, to continue to wreck Ukraine in a way that makes the bill for reconstruction go up and up, and to make Ukraine even less attractive as a partner.”
“Over the last year they overweighted the impact of the sanctions on Russia. They really thought the Russian economy could not sustain sanctions pressure. It was going to collapse in on itself, which it has not. It doesn't mean there aren't economic problems in Russia. But the Russian defense industry has been more resilient than the West assumed, with its ability to continue to supply the Russians with equipment and, therefore, as you said, not enough supplied [by the West to Ukraine] at the beginning; a pipeline that is slower than expected to get this [done] and Russia's ability to continue to keep the campaign going.”
“How many times over the last year were we told that Russia was out of missiles? It's been like clockwork. Every two weeks, we get a report: "Russia has exhausted its missile supplies, it's done." Maybe Russia is more adaptable…. I think we're now beginning to realize that we overestimated their vulnerability to sanctions. We underestimated their ability to repurpose old military equipment and use it in Ukraine to some degree of effectiveness. That has implications down the road for how much to [send to] Europe and how much to Asia.”
(1st presidential drawdown for Tiwain was issued last Friday BTW…That’s 41 different drawdowns now… ”They are going to bleed you dry.” They don’t fight wars like we do.)
“We're 500 days into this war. I don't have access to classified material. Maybe it's happening quietly, but I'm just not seeing the industrial base moving along.”
“The decision on cluster munitions, that's the canary in the coal mine. We're sending these cluster munitions because we don't have other things and [U.S. national-security adviser] Jake Sullivan [came out and said] very openly, "Well, this is the bridge, we need to send cluster munitions because we need to give industry time to build up the stockpiles."
That was Nikolas Gvosdev is a professor of national security studies at the U.S. Naval War College who focuses in part on Russia and U.S. foreign policy.
Interview: NATO's Open-Door Rhetoric On Ukraine Is Running Up Against Harsh Realities
July 18th Radio Free Europe, Radio liberty
“They don’t fight wars like we do.” “They are going to bleed us dry before the real war even gets started.”
I would say I rest my case, but the reality is I haven’t even started presenting it in earnest yet.
“Getting Heaven on earth for 3.5 years for warning you that Hells is comin” Was Something else the spirit said through me a while back.
Id take it serious if I was you.
Journey well my friends.
