CONTROL LOST

How close to the precipice are the sponsors of the war in Ukraine walking? If the White House continues with its warmongering ambition, how much could the Anglo-American obsession with destroying Russia cost the world?

A month after the start of the UAF's counteroffensive, the assessments of the military results achieved are resoundingly negative and something similar can be said of the political efforts of Volodymyr Zelensky and Co. to obtain the long-awaited NATO membership.

If the Manichean version of the collective Western media is anything to go by, things are not going so badly and may even be going better than expected as President Biden is reported to have said that “Putin has already lost the war”. This has undoubtedly been the reaction of the same officials and bureaucrats in Washington who view with concern a president who, at times, loses track of where he is, so it matters little what he says.

But if we go by what sources on the ground report, we see that while Zelensky and NATO officials were sipping champagne in Vilnius, Lithuania, Ukrainian troops (including mercenaries) were being cut to pieces at various points along the line of contact.

It always seems a truism to have to clarify that if these events are not reported by CNN and the BBC (and therefore by their South American repeaters) it does not mean that they did not happen. A fortnight ago these same media outlets were making all sorts of fantastic speculations about what happened with the Wagner PMC and its colourful leader Yevgeny Prigozhiny, today we see how they have been called to silence about what happened. From claiming a rebellion to a coup d'état due to an alleged weakness of Vladimir Putin, Western governments claimed a supposed revolt was in progress that would overthrow the Russian government. But was it a revolt?

In reality, Anglo-American intelligence could hardly know what actually happened, but the media working on the same side as these agencies fabricated shocking stories to intoxicate reality. In short, according to these intrigue experts, a seditious movement had arisen, demonstrating an internal antagonism that even involved high-ranking Russian generals.

But beyond these fictionalised intoxications, it is reality that prevails. While Biden was meeting with NATO partners, in the Kremlin Vladimir Putin was meeting with PMC Wagner commanders in a lengthy and convivial relaxed chat that, according to anonymous sources, lasted three hours and which the media had no interest in reporting.

But the most significant thing that can be said about what happened there is the expected flexibility of Recep Tayyip Erdogan who, after being satisfied with the commitment to deliver F-16 aircraft and the modernisation of his Armed Forces, no longer objected to Sweden's NATO membership. The Turkish leader is thus turning his back on Moscow and undoubtedly further muddying the situation regarding Ankara's position on what is happening in Ukraine. Putin was predictably expecting this, so it comes as no surprise to the Kremlin.

Beyond the misleading dialectics and false arguments scattered by the media conglomerate to try to give some epic to a real disaster, realism hits not only the ill-prepared Ukrainian conscripts but also the foreign mercenary groups (especially the unsuspecting Latinos) and their Anglo-American advisors head-on.

The battle groups and their commanders have had to contend with very serious problems with Western equipment that does not compare (in armour and firepower) with the systems they themselves used from the Soviet era, let alone those currently used by the Russians. Added to this is the increasingly lethal and accurate Russian artillery against Ukrainian positions as well as the accurate drone strikes against selective targets in Kiev.

As far as the covert activities of the Atlanticist intelligence agencies are concerned, they have not achieved the expected effects either. The campaign of destabilisation through terrorism, sabotage of critical infrastructure and assassinations, which is part of a dirty strategy used by the US and NATO because it cannot be disguised, has worsened the political position of these actors.  It should not be forgotten that it was the CIA who early in the early 1980s set up hoaxes such as “Al Qaeda” which it used until 2001, later diversifying into other hoaxes such as “Jabbat Al Nusra” in Syria and the infamous “ISIS” for Iraq, using the latter with the invaluable collaboration of the Mukhabarat of the Petromonarchies, the Turkish MIT and the Mossad to deploy the latter. Washington has undoubtedly tried to recreate a similar dynamic by recruiting active Slavic supporters of the neo-Nazism that has always been latent not only in Ukraine but throughout Eastern Europe.

Today the SBU (Ukrainian intelligence) is an empty shell under the control of the Atlanticist agencies, especially the CIA and MI6, with which they have tried to create more terrorist actions inside Russian territory than they have been able to execute.

These actions that worked in other theatres and against smaller, weakened countries after extensive economic suffocation and fomenting of internal subversion have certainly not had the same result against the Russian Federation. As far as can be learned, FSB intelligence has captured inside Russia an unspecified number of individuals who were planning all sorts of violent actions against the country and others who were already carrying them out, all of them recruited and paid by foreign intelligence agencies.

It is clear that the Ukrainians are not at the forefront of these actions, but they are using them, and that is why Russia is repaying the kindnesses it has been showing in the last week with high-precision missile attacks on regime posts and offices in the centre of Kiev. As seen at the NATO summit in Lithuania, Biden is far from stopping the aggressions (afflicted by Louis XV syndrome) and is only betting on fueling the fire without considering the consequences; his Ashkenazi disciple's veiled plans to create a false flag to blow up the nuclear plant in Zaporizhya is proof of this. But if the US continues to sponsor such actions, why should it not expect retaliation on its own soil?
