China is headed towards a deep recession
China is headed towards a deep recession Or even economic collapse, do not let their official data fool you. We hear a lot about the coming rise of China, how they will soon overtake the US as the biggest economy. I want to put a big question mark on these optimistic forecasts. Before we go into this I would like to mention this study by the university of Chicago. https://www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/720458 It suggests that China might overstate their own GDP by as much as 60 percent.
Those who brings the sword, shall die by it.
Those who brings the sword, shall die by it. The last colonial empire on earth is crumbling, we need to be prepared for its disintegration. Not only Russia has interests, Europe does too and so does Ukraine. Russia fails to understand its role in the 21st century, its prime time is behind them, they need to accept this. War is won by superior logistics and superior will of both the West has more. The sinuses of war are infinite amounts of money. We need to take a much more decisive stance.
Russia will suffer a crushing, poverty driven defeat, by the end of next summer.
Russia will suffer a crushing, poverty driven defeat, by the end of next summer. Russia's culmination point has been reached by the end of August, their capacity to wage this war and for offensive operations is getting more limited by the day.
The sanctions are killing Russia's
The sanctions are killing Russia's economy Russian Federal reserve confirms. The crimean bridge and Russia's economic future have one thing on common: They are both broken and sinking into the ocean. The sanctions are like a poison. Death by a thousand cuts. Russia had reserves, but those are dwindling. Ukraine is providing the hardest push with Western arms and Ukrainian strength of will and arms.
Russo Ukrainian history does not repeat itself but it rhymes.
Russo Ukrainian history does not repeat itself but it rhymes. No nation deserves freedom or can long retain it which does not win it for itself. Revolutions must be made by the people and for the people. Giuseppe Mazzini We need to understand Russia's own history and how it affects the war we see today. It originates from a discussion, that I had with a well educated citizen of the Russian Federation, shortly before fled from Russia.
This is now the West's war to win and not Ukraine's war to lose
and the pockets of the West are truly infinite compared to Russias empty coffers In the last few months we have seen a huge shift on and off the battlefield. Western resolve has strenghtened and Ukraine's morale has skyrocketed since the arrive of HIMARS launchers in July. Russia has been increasingly on the backfoot, after months of horrendous performance on the battlefield and on the diplomatic front.
The call for appeasement with Russia is short sighted.
Let us learn from history, if we do not we are doomed to repeat our mistakes If they refuse to withdraw, and deliver their war criminals to us, that means we have to continue. Peace will only come, when the Russian Federation is no more. As long as it exists it will blackmail those around it, and sponsor terrorism in other countries. We cannot repeat our mistakes from the past. Here is a quote from Churchill, what he said back then applies also to today.

This info graphic is an inidcator of the war of attrition that Russia will simply lose the longer this goes on. The list of countries supplying Ukraine is so huge, Putin has to be seriously delusional if he thinks it's likely he will be victorious. I think at this point he doesn't care about winning. Just causing a shit storm for Ukraine. It's like losing at monopoly. People tend to flip the board when they're about the lose or loosing badly.
War, famine, plague and death or why the world could soon face an apocalyptic dystopian future and...
The cold war "order" of the last 75 years followed the following principles. America could have decided, to occupy half of Europe after WW2. This seemed unsustainable to them for various reasons, and the potential for another war or major insurgencies was huge. So they created something else instead. A system of a carrot and a stick: 1) Secure maritime and land trade 2) Access to a world currency which is universally accepted and available. If a nation screws something up.
The end of globalisation is well on its way.
China, Russia and Ukraine, all three of them were integral parts to keep the global system going. Now all three of them are falling like dominoes. Russia's decision to start this war, has thrown the world into a downward spiral. The world needs to be ready for what is to come in the near future. Nothing is set in stone, however, it doesn't look good. Let me explain why.
The collapse of its military, the collapse of its regime or...
I argue that the most likely way to end this war, is by bancrupting Russia. They are already in forein debt default, with the oil Embargo soon in place, the domestic debt default could soon follow. Russian oil output and market saturation were decreasing heavily since the 1992 Soviet Collapse, Europe's demand is long past their peak and with their own demographic decline, it will never have another peak in crude oil demand.

War, famine, plague and death, Russia has called all 4 riders of the apocalypse to its evil empire. They have also invited the stablemaster: misinformation. Yale scientist Jeffrey Sonnenfeld. "We believe in investing in places where there is the rule of law and not the law of rulers" Yale will be correct in their assessment of the utter collapse of Russia's economy. The IMF forecast for GDP growth of -3 percent this year for Russia and small growth next year, will be utterly incorrect.
Ava: Life in the Afternoon
She stands there, without benefit of a filter lens, against a room melting under the heat of lemony sofas and lavender walls and cream-and-peppermint-striped movie-star chairs, lost in the middle of that gilt-edge birthday-cake hotel of cupids and cupolas called The Regency. There is no script. No Minnelli to adjust the CinemaScope lens. Ice-blue rain beats against the windows and peppers Park Avenue below as Ava Gardner stalks her pink malted-milk cage like an elegant cheetah.
