The 'Blitz' – from the German term Blitzkrieg ('lightning war') – was the sustained campaign of aerial bombing attacks on British towns and cities

Hitler, however, was dismissive of the military power of the United States, a view that was shared by Hermann Göring.

For various reasons, I've always thought of Jim Rickards as a deepstate kinda guy. Probably bc he analyzed "who profitted from 9-11" for the CIA. He always posts with a purpose

Rickards: A Bodyguard Of Lies
Saturday, Nov 05, 2022 - 07:30 PM
Authored by James Rickards
The all-important midterm elections are just one week away. I’ve said a lot about them, and will have more to say about them in the days to come.
But today, I want to talk about something even more important: truth vs. official lies. More specifically, I want to talk about truth and propaganda.
It’s said that truth is the first casualty of war. And Churchill once said that in wartime, truth is so precious that it needs to be surrounded by a bodyguard of lies.
That’s why propaganda plays such a large role in modern warfare.
The fact is wars are conducted in part through lies and propaganda. For example, in the early days of World War I, the British cut the undersea communications cables that ran from Germany to the U.S.
The British wanted to control the flow of information and issue what we call today “misinformation.” And so they created inflammatory accounts of German atrocities to sway public opinion, like German soldiers skewering Belgian babies on bayonets.
While there will always be individual acts of atrocity in wartime, these reports were largely propaganda.
Here in the U.S. itself, President Wilson had special police forces who arrested anyone reporting negative news on the progress of the war. Sound familiar?
****
It’s like the social media companies today canceling or censoring anyone who reports that the vaccines don’t work or masks don’t work. The media call it “misinformation” (even though it’s scientifically valid) and move on.
The same is true with the war in Ukraine. The propaganda machine kicked into overdrive early on.
Bodyguard of Lies
The CIA and MI6 leaked a steady stream of anti-Russian lies to prop up morale. These lies were reprinted in warmonger media outlets like The Washington Post, The New York Times and NBC News.
That means it’s almost impossible for U.S. citizens to get the real story through mainstream media outlets. Still, there is some honest reporting going in if you know where to find it.
You just have to filter the sources and find those with good pipelines of information (including inside the government) who do not have a hidden agenda and are willing to speak the truth.
It’s not necessary to rely on Russian sources (the Russians are certainly not above propaganda, although they’re generally more truthful than the U.S. media, believe it or not). There are excellent analyses to be found among Swiss sources, German experts who are not in favor of the war and some on-the-ground reporting from the front lines on specialist websites.
Get Ready for the Russian Counteroffensive
Some of the best sources are found among retired U.S. military officers who are experts on warfare, still have good contacts inside the military and intelligence communities, and who consider the war in Ukraine to be highly detrimental to U.S. national security and the economy.
One top commentator who fits this description is Colonel (Ret.) Douglas Macgregor, who wrote a recent commentary about the war. Macgregor points out that Russia is preparing for a full-scale counterattack to roll-back recent Ukrainian gains near the Donbas and Kherson.
The Russians have been consolidating their positions: resupplying, mobilizing troops, and preparing for winter warfare at which they excel. It’s just a matter of waiting for the ground to freeze so trucks and armor can maneuver without getting bogged down.
The attack could come as early as November or December at the latest. Yet, that is not Macgregor’s main concern.
Is the 101st Airborne Division Being Used as Bait?
His fear is that the U.S. will double down in the face of this attack and deploy U.S. troops to the battle. The Pentagon recently deployed units of the 101st Airborne Division to Romania, just miles from itNOTIFY: Y | REPLY | REPLY WITH QUOTE | PERMALINK | TOP | HOME

Nazis! Nazis!
Get fucked, idiot.
The 2000+ posts you morons made about Ukraine are meaningless.
Look what your party was busy doing while you were paying attention to this dumb shit.
Now they lose.
You were warned.

This is what I understand is that status of the war:
Right now, the fields are muddy, making offensives by either side difficult to impossible. So the front line is static.
Ukraine is calling up 100,000 soldiers to replenish ranks, which implies they've lost 100,000. ATM they have roughly 300,000-350,000 troops in the field.
Russia has called up 300,000. At the moment, they have an estimated 100,000-150,000 in the field. When both reinforcements are completed troop strength will be at rough parity.
Right now Russia is busy evacuating civilians and removing artworks and such from Kherson city, while digging trenches and so forth. Every indication is that they're clearing the decks for an important battle near or in the western side if Kherson city, or possibly even preparing for a dirty bomb. The speculation that Russia was going to withdraw from Kherson city seems to be wishful thinking.
So this is a lull in the fighting in which both sides are rebuilding their forces.
In the long run, as long as Ukraine/USA/NATO keep fighting a traditional conventional war, they will most likely lose. That's bc those kinds of wars depend on military production. That's why the collective west tried to implode Russia economy.
It is possible for a lightly armed force to defeat a superior armed force .. after all, look at Vietnam and Afghanistan... but you need support from the population and terrain that you know how to take advantage of. I'm not sure that either one applies in Ukraine.
In any case, don't expect to see big sweeping movement on the front. Russian general says he plans to grind Kiev's army down: let them throw themselves into artillery range, not necessary to advance, just successfully defend.
IMHO.

Quote:What else did the Republicans do, besides let the Nazis bomb London until Hitler declared war on the US? The Republicans blamed President Roosevelt for Pearl Harbor! It is 2022, yet Republicans continue that same laughably stupid tactic from 1941. The bigger laugh is that Republican voters are stupid enough to believe it.

BLAME ROOSEVELT FOR PEARL HARBOR; House Republicans Say 'Real Story' of Disaster Is Held Up Because of Politics. House Republicans, focusing further political attention on the Pearl Harbor attack, today blamed President Roosevelt for the success of the Japanese raid and accused the Administration of withholding the "real story" for reasons of "political expediency."

Who Lost Pearl Harbor?
Two generations later, the conspiracy theorists still blame the successful sneak attack on FDR.

Think of all that time you wasted.
Two whole years of not calling out your party for its bad takes and forcing them to be better.
Meanwhile, the "Russia!" threads are about to fall into obscurity on the fff.net boards like everything else does and you will learn no lessons from your idiocy.

Quote:You know what happens in two days? Nothing. So many elections have come and gone leaving 6ixStringJack's life going nowhere along with all the other angry poor white trash who are going nowhere and are furious that their "extra-specialness" is ignored while Ukraine gets all the attention. After the Ukraine war is over, you will still be ignored. Nobody will give you what you want. Not now. Not ever. Get used to it, Trumptards. Or, follow the example of Ukraine vs Russia, and go to war with somebody. Maybe you can violently force somebody to give you what you want or else kill them.
