More hubris pours out from the western leadership this time from NATO's Mark Rutter at the defence ministers summit in Brussels. Russian planes will be escorted from western air space because Russia is 'weak' and NATO is 'strong'. Rutte also learnt from the film Red October that Russia only has 1 limping submarine so nothing to worry about there.

Meanwhile the retired US General Ben Hodges says if Russia attacks then both Kaliningrad and Sevastopol would be โ€œannihilatedโ€ in the very first hour, presumably he thinks Russia won't respond because Russia would be too scared.

Meanwhile Trump has said he 'destroyed' BRICS (not sure when that happened) and the Russian economy is about to collapse. Then comes Trump's Tomahawk threat, new information says that the US only makes less than 100 a year though does have a stockpile of maybe 4,000 but will need to save most for real enemies like China and Venezuela.

Experts say that probably 100 might be sent to Ukraine (similar numbers as the himars and ataacms) but given that it took 40 of the missiles to disable an air base in Syria that was then back up and running the next day so 100 missiles won't make a lot of difference.

Then there remains the problem of launching them, the Typhon launcher takes 4 Tomahawks, they travel in a 40 foot container that can't be loaded onto the back of a truck but maybe 'they could be mounted on a barge in a river somewhere', yeah, like the Russians won't see that. The Tomahawks are just a bluff.

Which is why Zelensky talks about them non-stop every day, has phone calls with Trump every day and visits Washington at least once a week.

All this rhetoric and fake news is suddenly being pumped now for a reason. Ukraine is in big trouble. Russian troops are now on the edges of Mirnograd, and Shakhove, the city in the west cauldron and the town in the east cauldron of the Pokrovsk breakout. Pokrovsk itself has Russian troops at its centre and covering all roads leading in.

Big armour attacks are back on the menu and is an indication that the Russians are ready to push on and close up the Pokrovsk cauldrons while Russian troops are also fighting in Kupiansk, Konstantinovka and Siverk. This Ukrainian line of defence made up of a string cities contains the major part of Ukraine's total fighting force is collapsing. And behind them is nothing but the Dnipro river, the bridges of which the Russians have left intact.

What plan the Russians have in allowing these important supply crossing routes between west and east is not clear but they do seem to want to be able to use them themselves rather than the river being a hard barrier. The Russian army could use them to move north and west (into Kharkov and Odessa) moving on the right bank of the river (as viewed by river flow to the sea) behind any other Ukrainian defences.

Reports of Russian troops entering Kherson city from both Ukrainian and Russian sources. This would mean a substantive force crossing the Dnipro river into the southern part of Kherson and another new front for Ukraine to deal with.

Russian troops also reported now in the city of Myrnohrad which lays just to the east of Pokrovsk as Russia continues to close up the Pokrovsk cauldron.

A lot of commentors in Russia and some in the west seem to be getting impatient with Putin and his failure to snap back at Trump's now near constant sniping.

I think Putin is playing it right. Zelensky and Biden (now Trump) have consistently played this game, the verbal build up of the next new wonder weapon. It usually goes on for weeks and is the main part of the bluff because, as has happened with each incarnation, the 'wonder weapon' turns out to be a dud.

They must have know this, with each new 100 whatever missiles they aim at Russia Russia has sent back x1000 and that never won the conflict for them, so why would 100 tomahawks do it for Ukraine, it won't.

Javelins, triple As, Abrams, storm shadows, scalps, himars, atacms, F-16s, and now tomahawks. None were the 'game changer' advertised but the arrival of each was preceded by weeks and weeks of hype. It's almost like they knew but hoped the hype itself would be enough to make Putin step back, it never worked and this time will be no different.

So Putin need not respond to the constant threats and snipping because bluff is all it is. Ultimately Putin knows Russia is winning and will continue to win because the west doesn't have anything other than nukes that they can throw that could harm Russia, and as this conflict is not existential to the US, they wont.

Not only will Russia win no matter how long the west keeps dragging the dying Ukraine along by it's lead Russia also has escalation dominance, anything the west can do they can do better. The west fires off some tomahawks (if they're ever actually able to) then Russia will just start sending back 10x more Oreshniks.

There really is no need for Putin to be the one to trigger any escalation especially in response to nothing more than mere rhetoric. He's right to wait for actual deeds first.

PR and theatrics are the only thing Zelensky is good at and it's purpose is to keep the western public thinking that Ukraine is not only winning but on the verge of victory (so keep the money flowing folks). And secondly, the constant baiting of Putin might just lead to some outrageous, over the top action by Putin that could collapse his support from the BRICS countries and add new weight to anti-Russian sentiment in the west. It's the only card Zelensky's got and he's playing it for all he's worth.

Boy1 meets boy2 and they fall in love but then the next day boy1 meets boy3 and they fall in love, and so boy2 is left out in the cold.

How many times have we heard this tragic tale of the star crossed lover's doomed love triangle?

Well, about 94 so far actually.


And so Zelensky is in Washington for his weekly tryst with the Don hot on the heels of Trump's call to Putin, but this time he's also going to have a look at the US arms manufacturer's latest catalogue plus put in an order for some new launchers for the new missiles hopefully coming his way.

It turns out that the US Marines looked at singular Tomahawk launchers for land use years ago but cancelled the project. Now Zelensky needs someone to build some for him, no expense spared - because the Europeans will be paying ha ha.

Seems that the US has decided to stop being the worlds policeman and just be the world's gun shop instead. Clean, steady work and no heavy lifting. Zelensky doesn't mind so long as someone else is picking up the tab. The Europeans were nominated and they happily agreed in spite of the fact they don't actually have any money.

They figure they can maybe beg, borrow and steal for a bit but are not worried because it all fits in with their secret plan anyway. The 3 unwise kings, Starmer, Macron and Merz are actually plants by the globalist elite to collapse their liberal democracies. Once the countries are bankrupt and there's no food in the shops and the people are rioting then the globalists will jump onto the stage shouting 'don't worry we'll save you, just transfer all power to us'. And so the audience did and lived in slavery forever after but though they owned nothing they were happy, or so the story goes.

Back to Zelensky and he's nothing if not PR, and so his main talking points to Trump today will be, give us Tomahawks and launchers and give us Patriot air defence missiles, I know you've got some tucked away somewhere.

And to back up his ask the Ukraine army claim a new counterattack in Pokrovsk and Ukrainian mappers have dutifully updated their maps to show Ukraine gains though the Russians don't seem to have noticed anything has changed at all. But anyway Zelensky will tell Trump 'look at the map Don, we're still winning'.

And secondly, for the first time in the whole conflict Ukraine have said they shot down NO Iskander missiles last night (look Don, see how desperate we are for some Patriots, pleeeese think of the children).

The Don will make a big song and dance for the look of the thing and then eventually say yes because you have to keep the shit show rolling down the road so long as the music keeps playing.

Yes, as if they haven't been trying their hardest for the last near 4 years. NATO has pushed into battle a million strong NATO trained and equipped army as well has every piece of equipment from every NATO country's stores and gone nowhere other than backwards. Their rhetoric is getting more and more desperate now.
