World War E / World War III Is 1 [9?] Year[s] Old This Week. Oh, And Happy Presidents’ Day! (February 20, 2023)
. . .
J “Putin is desperate.”
K “Biden is desperate. The speakers yesterday proclaimed a word that has almost been expunged from the American lexicon – peace. And look at his latest desperate theatrical antic. The puppet flies to meet the marionette.”
. . .
K “Russia is subtly and methodically winning the ‘economic war’ and is slowly and patiently winning the ‘kinetic war’ and ceaselessly and unrelentingly losing the ‘propaganda war’ . . . at this time. The unprovoked Western sanctions are destructive and counterproductive. The truth is emerging. The West is very, very slowly unraveling.”
J “The West will prevail.”
. . .
K “One of the tectonic shifts on the journey from illusionment to disillusionment was the gradual realization that the United States of America since 1945 was not the world’s policeman as I was directed in grammar school . . . it is the world’s bully. After that realization was confirmed by a thousand historical footnotes, nothing is or can ever be the same.”
J “Policemen need to be bullies at times.”
. . .
K “The bourse is the battlefield; the battlefield is the bourse. The PetroDollar is supported by violence; the violence is funded by the PetroDollar. The de-dollarization efforts may not dethrone the PetroDollar, but little by little they are moving the PetroDollar to a highchair at a table with other currencies.”
J “Some two-party commercial transactions are being undertaken without the PetroDollar. However, the PetroDollar still has a long shelf life and a long half-life. For better and for worse.”
. . .
K “Biden will instigate a false flag event to go nuclear.”
J “Putin will instigate a false flag event to go nuclear.”
. . .
K “Biden’s war is not going to end well.”
J “Putin’s war is not going to end well.”

It is going nuclear.
Bumper stickers of the week:
“The other thing I will say is that the war didn’t start in February last year. The war started in 2014. And since 2014, NATO Allies have provided support to Ukraine, with training, with equipment, so the Ukrainian Armed Forces were much stronger in 2022, than they were in 2020, and 2014. And of course, that made a huge difference when President Putin decided to attack Ukraine.” NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg
“They’ve lost strategically, they’ve lost operationally and, I repeat, they’ve lost tactically. . . . What they’ve tried to do, they’ve failed at. The strategic reframing of their objectives, of their illegal invasion, have all failed, every single one of them.” Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark A. Milley
