Putin’s Predicament, by T. L. Davis

There may have been stupider ideas in the history of humanity than the U.S.’s current effort to goad Russia into a nuclear war, but none come to mind. From T.L. Davis at tldavis.substack.com:

In a time when anything being reported accurately about the United States must come from some foreign source, it is incumbent upon the reader and discerner of the times to think for oneself. If that’s not something that comes naturally to one, this must be a very difficult and trying time.

When it comes to the Russians, I listen to what they have to say directly as often as possible, knowing that there is still a Soviet filter that must be applied as well as an accuracy rating with a wide arc due to the faithfulness or lack of it, in the translation. Even then, what they’ve been saying lately lands much closer to the truth bullseye than anything our crop of politicians are spouting. The Russians, for instance, don’t seem to have the confusion about what makes a woman a woman. I personally have my qualifiers that are generally accurate, though I can be fooled, if that is one’s intent, but not on closer inspection. At least I have a criteria, that eludes two or three supreme court justices and probably a quarter of the Senate and half the House.

Lately, with the threats of nuclear war by our State Department and the White House coming out of the darkness of last resort, to a more frequent playground taunt, I’ve been listening to the Russian reactions. Knowing that Biden’s promises not to send long-range missiles to Ukraine, and not to make F-16’s or any other nuclear capable fighter available to Kiev, have been broken, I want to see how this is playing in Moscow.

Both Putin and Lavrov have cautioned against these nuclear taunts and open violations of direct NATO support for Ukraine. Even though it all seems completely reasonable for Putin to react in much stronger terms than he has to date, one must wonder why he hasn’t. Russia does not appear to be weak, or wanting for weapons or ammunition. They have a stronger economy during the SMO, than they had before it. They have more nuclear weapons than we do and many more warheads. The United States voluntarily removed its multiple independently targeted reentry vehicles (MIRVs) and refit the missile with single warheads, the Russians did not and while they might have a relatively equal amount of ICBMs as we do, they have multiple warheads on each one. So, it’s not like the West is beating its chest against a much weaker, highly outgunned adversary, if anything it’s kicking the shins of a much larger gorilla.

  1. And they killed the “spy whale” over in Norway after RT did a feature on it.

    VV Putin will let Under Satan’s Authority be in the history books for burning down the world?

    Satanic Sodomite Sewerpipes who serve Marx are out to burn it all down by any means necessary after all.

    Ingrate Red Diaper Babies, that’s just how they’ll do ya, six ways to Sunday.
