What's really going on?
Why all this very antagonistic talk from the west?
Why all the hate?
They are doing everything in their power to start WW3, why?
Evil has taken hold of this world, is it my fault? Maybe, but the one's in charge had to allow this evil to take hold of them.
If the US government wants WW3 they should just launch the nukes already, won't be many people left to judge them after and they can rewrite history however they wish while hiding in their deep underground bunkers.
The people that survive on the surface will be busy surviving and won't have time for writing history books or worrying about how they may be perceived in the future.

-4 # Finnish Vox Populi: overwhelmingly Finn are in favor of joining NATO. — Haarnaś 2022-04-25 18:53

For those smart Alecs here who think that they can make the decision about joining NATO for the Finns, the current public support in Finland for joining NATO is 68% and continues to rise. These are the people who know the Soviets like the backs of their hand (they lost their sovereignty to Russia in 1809 and like Poland won it back in 1917) and have never lowered the guard following the feigned collapse of the Soviet Union.

For Mr. Scurrilous Kook who disparages JR Nyquist, the noted author who has written several more books on the topic than the bad writer wannabe ever will, I would like to point out that Mr. Nyquist has extensive contacts with leading conservative political writers in Central and Eastern Europe and Scandinavia, being of the Nordic stock himself.

We can see a trend in the amount of the Polish military spending which parallels the growth in the size of the Polish army since 2010. The graph which you can find in the second link clearly shows that while the size of the Polish armed forces had gone precipitously down after 1991, the year that the Soviet Union collapsed according to kooks, since 2010 Polish armed forces have been growing in size continuously and it stands at 200 000 now! Why is that? Are they afraid in Poland of Finland invading her and vice versa?

Izzrayell has it's "Samson Complex"... a doomsday deathswitch scenario in the event of imminent existential annihilation; and uhmm, Russia has this saying, "We don’t need a world without Russia…" or, "“Why Do We Need a World if Russia Is Not In It?”.... somewhat the same... I am wondering how much damage and casualty Russia is going to sustain, before they upset the game board, while they still and because they can. I would. And further, what makes us think they are not moving in that direction even now, and perhaps it's a known conclusion/destination, and just that right now, today, its not GO time, ie, they are not ready to do it , yet, but are lining up the shot, as in "hoooooooold hoooooooold" (we like that one cuz it was Mel being a super patriot) I dont feel like it's time to relax, "When it's time to relax, one beer stands clear (Beer After Beer), if you've got the time, we've got the beer…" i wish it was,,,

The Samson option has the nukes prepositioned in major cities around the world.
All they have to do is send the signal.

-2 # The Demise Of The G-20 — Dolph 2022-04-25 16:36

In addressing the Russian-allied countries within the Eurasian Economic Union, BRICS and the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation today, this report continues, it saw Director Denis Manturov of the Ministry of Industry and Trade urging all of them to dump US Dollars and Euros and switch to their own national currencies, with him stating: “What is happening today in the global economy and in the world gives us a hint about how we need to rebuild our logistics, industrial cooperation, in what directions we can develop our economies…This is de-dollarization, and now we have added de-euroization, that is, the transition to our own currencies in order to be as independent as possible in terms of mutual settlements”—a call for the world to move away from the Western colonial powers that follows global economic experts noting last week: “April 20, 2022 has every chance of going down in the history of modern international relations as the day that led to the sudden demise of the G20, which represents the leading economies of the Western and non-Western world...With their demarches against Russia, Western members of the global club are demolishing its purpose”.

-2 # Boris Johnson: Russian Victory Is Inevitable an Victory Is — Dolph 2022-04-25 16:27

In truthful articles now appearing like “The West is Very Scared: Russia Wins”, this report notes, it is being noticed that over the past week Western colonial leaders -- like British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who said “A Russian victory is not only possible, it is inevitable” – have retreated into a fantasy world after they were pummeled by the leftist media for telling the truth with comments like “This conflict is about the survival of the West...If Ukraine is allowed to fall, then everything that the Western world stands for will also fall”—is a fantasy world ruled over by Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky, who yesterday claimed that the war was unparalleled to any other in the 20th century—a delusional claim quickly met by State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin, who factually stated about the “Special De-Nazification Operation” to liberate Ukraine: “This is a special military operation…If Russia were fighting a full-scale war, it would have been over long ago…This would have happened if we used the United States’ customary carpet bombings and scorched land tactics, repeatedly employed by ‘the world’s most democratic Air Force’ in Yugoslavia, Libya, Iraq and Syria...Russian soldiers and officers do not kill civilians, but liberate them, sometimes at the cost of their own lives...Our soldiers are doing their utmost to save peaceful residents”.

-2 # Sanction Failure — Dolph 2022-04-25 15:49

President Macron warning on Friday that the European Union would not be able to survive next winter without Russian gas—a warning that follows German Vice Chancellor Robert Habeck factually stating: “There is no value-based fossil fuel energy strategy for European countries other than importing all their energy from the United States, Canada or Australia, which is impossible”—and in response to these European Union leaders, it saw Security Council Deputy Chairman Dmitry Medvedev stating: “We appreciate the consistency and integrity of our European partners…Especially considering the fact that, according to recent IMF data, Europe will be able to do without our gas for no more than 6 months…But speaking seriously, they won't even last a week”

-1 # RE: Sanction Failure — Eddamnit 2022-04-25 15:59

Germany starting old long cold nuclear reactors to generate electricity has disaster written all over it.
Most likely even if they can get the reactor up and making steam there is no guarantee the long still turbine or the generator still works. Once cold the windings in the generator begin to corrode and won't make electricity any more and will need to be rewound or replaced. If the turbine is corroded or bearings bad it will need to be replaced.
Big jobs!
No spare parts on the shelf.

They WILL join NATO this year.

Russia won't do a damned thing about it.
They have their red-lines.
We have our red-lines.

NATO member or not......NATO WILL commit troops if Russia invades Finland.

They've also 'been there' before in war against Finland, in the 'Winter War' - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_War

Russia's already having the tar beaten out of them in Ukraine.

War with Finland is the LAST thing they need.

And Boo hoo hoo...... the Russians had their asses handed to them by the Finns in 'The Winter War'.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Winter_War

340K Finns killed.....vs 760k Soviets.
Finns lost 32 tanks......USSR lost 4000.
Finns lost 114 aircraft.......USSR lost 4000.

See a pattern here? Bueller?

The Finns beat the TAR out of the USSR.
Ukraine IS beating the TAR out of the USSR.

The common mistake for the USSR/Russia (in both cases) was

- underestimating the morale ("To the Death!") of the defenders, vs the morale of their conscript/slave-labor troops
- believing their OWN bullshit. It doesn't matter if you say you've lost 100 tanks and the defenders have lost 1000. That is to keep YOUR OWN citizens from striing your officials up IN THE STREEts. When YOU lose 800 tanks, the 'enemy' loses 400......and YOU proceed on that......YOU'RE ASS is on a plate. REALITY matters in the battle......NOT your lies.

Surely.....a cunning plan! When they get their asses hande to them again, they'll just drop a half dozen nukes and everyone play nice.....and not kill the rabid dog. That's how that works, right?

+2 # Not the only — John Jones 2022-04-25 08:45

Not the only difference. The Winter War was right after Stalin's purge of the officer Corps and was very ill-advised against a motivated Finnish defense. Finland is not the same country they were. Like the rest of Europe they have gone woke, they recently jailed a Finnish politician quoting the Bible because it was hate speech. Also, is Russia really getting beat in Ukraine? Don't go on the silly projections of Russia winning in 48hrs, go by who is controlling the initiative and taking their current objectives...that is Russia.

-3 # When Russia Crosses NATO's red line... — Dolph 2022-04-25 16:08

...it will be all out WW III not Helsinki. Russia has out foxed NATO so far as the sanctions have failed, the Ruble is solid and America sells out our reserve fuel and dwindles our military assets.This will continue because the elites plan is to destroy America from within. Didn't Stalin say something about us selling Russia the rope to hang us with? We should've listened to Tail-gunner Joe McCarthy.

-3 # RE: When Russia Crosses NATO's red line... — Eddamnit 2022-04-25 16:19

But what happens when NATO crosses Russia's "Red Line"?
I doubt this missile strike on the oil facilities in Russia was launched from Ukraine and the accuracy of the strikes has USA written all over it.
These hits were like 100 miles deep into Russian territory.
Seems like a cruise missile strike and the missile could have been launched from Poland and steered into Ukraine airspace before hitting Russia to make it appear that it was launched from Ukraine.

he did pray the Holy Rosary, including on the day he was assassinated by Mossad, DBG, LJB, JEH, FBI, Giancana, and eight CIA-trained Cuban snipers et al. On that fateful day he also want to confession, attended the morning Holy Mass and worthily took a communion Eucharist on his tongue. He did what heretics here refer to as "get right with God" but what obviously is not the same thing and in heretics' case fails to accomplish the saving of the soul!

Thousands of other heretical sects already defunct over the LAST 500 YEARS. Where did Puritans go? How about Huguenots, Shakers? Puritans almost wiped Quakers OUT in the 17th century in the US when they committed innumerable atrocities on every single newly arrived Quaker , man woman or child. Only the intervention of the Duch Catholic Monarch stopped the carnage,

-4 # Russian politicians have said the only thing Finland would achieve by joining NATO is the destruction of their country. — Haarnaś 2022-04-24 14:43

I have no access to behind-the-scenes discussions and calculations in Finland, which might be very interesting to follow if Hal Turmer can get his hands on it.

Certainty, looking at Central European countries like Poland, the Baltics, Czech Republic, Slovaks, that is all of them with exception of Hungary had lost freedom of pursue their nationalist goals. They are bound by various NATO rules and regulation to keep everyone in place. Those limitations do not somehow seem to affect Turkey much.

Anyway, only Hungary is looking after its own national interest at the present time. Poland and Baltics in particular are no longer independent countries and have to follow the official American/NATO policies. Poland, unlike Hungary no longer has independent press informing public opinion. Just like Italy or Germany, what the public is told is strictly under the CIA control and designed to protect the American interests!

Finland and Sweden may be walking into a trap by joining NATO, although on paper being a part of the block of nation with one billion total population should give one a sense of greater security than being alone. The current population of Russia is only 146 million.
