“Great nations do not fight endless wars,” Donald Trump said during his campaign when highlighting his “Americas First” message. Trump explicitly promised to maintain peace and keep American troops out of foreign wars. American blood has been shed in the Middle East once more amid Operation Epic Fury. Could this escalating war cause MAGA to fracture?
“We are not going to war with Iran. We are going to make sure they never have a nuclear weapon,” Trump once said. I’ve mentioned that I was particularly impressed with Donald Trump after visiting Mar-a-Lago. He was the first politician to voice genuine concern over American lives lost fighting endless wars. “After 19 years, it is time for them to police their own country. Bring our soldiers back home but closely watch what is going on and strike with a thunder like never before, if necessary!” he posted in 2020. Trump later vowed to bring our troops home by Christmas of that year.
The man who once remorsefully spoke of dreading watching mothers mourning their sons and daughters has been compromised, infiltrated by the neocons. He admitted that the US should have never been in Iraq or Afghanistan. He did not troops in Syria. Trump clearly acknowledged that the Middle East has endless generations of feuding and rivalry that cannot be stopped. “Peace in the Middle East” cannot be attained through warfare, and truthfully, it simply cannot be attained because of the deep rooted ideology that has been passed on throughout thousands of years.
The neocons fantasized of a 6-week war in Iraq back in 2003, but US troops remained on the ground until December 2011. The strike on Iran is expected to last “four to give weeks,” according to Washington officials who say they are on a “clear, decisive mission.” Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu said it will take “some time” but “not years…not an endless war.”
Americans voted for peace and nationalism after four years of globalist policies. Trump has shot himself in the foot. Exactly on target with the ECM, 2026 is emerging as a major geopolitical turning point. The model has been warning that this year would mark a shift into a broader phase of instability. What we are witnessing is not is cyclical.
The computer is indicating that pressures will intensify into 2027, where we face a Panic Cycle that historically coincides with sudden escalation or an external shock event. Panic Cycles do not require full-scale world war but they dramatically increase the probability of geopolitical confrontation and capital flight. The risk is that regional conflicts merge, drawing in larger powers either directly or through proxies.
That escalation phase then carries forward into 2028, which stands as a Yearly Panic Cycle, which is a far more significant inflection point. When Panic Cycles align at both the shorter and longer time frames, the probability of systemic disruption rises sharply. This is where sovereign debt stress, currency instability, military confrontation, and political realignment can converge.
The key takeaway: 2026 is the pivot. 2027 introduces volatility and escalation risk. 2028 represents the potential systemic break

QUESTION: Do you believe that the Kremlin was preparing for a large-scale conventional war with NATO by the end of the decade, as they are claiming in Germany?
LVB
ANSWER: There is no question that Putin must face reality. As long as the NEOCONS are in charge of the West in both the USA and NATO, there is no chance of actually living together. Like Hamas fighters who, since birth, were raised to hate Jews, our NEOCONS have been so indoctrinated regarding Russians. They will NEVER accept a peaceful coexistence. We had one with our economies interlinked, and then they used Ukraine as their sacrificial lamb to weaken their archenemy. This has NEVER been about Ukraine. The West does not care if a single Ukrainian is still standing. They are expendable pawns on the geopolitical chessboard.
While the West has long sought the conquest of Russia for its wealth, Britain took two major historical military actions against Russian territory, both aimed at weakening the Russian state rather than conquering it. These were part of larger coalition efforts. The first was the Crimean War (1853-1856), which is the most famous example of British military conflict with Russia. Then Britain joined France, the Ottoman Empire, and Sardinia vs. the Russian Empire. The primary goal was to check Russian expansionist ambitions, particularly towards the weakening Ottoman Empire. Britain was determined to prevent Russia from gaining control of the strategic Dardanelles and Bosporus straits, which would threaten British trade routes and naval dominance in the Mediterranean. The coalition was victorious. The Treaty of Paris forced Russia to demilitarize the Black Sea and cede some territory. It was a major setback for Russian influence in the region.
The Allied Intervention in the Russian Civil War (1918-1925) was the next attempt. This unfolded during the aftermath of World War I and the Russian Revolution. This was a coalition of powers including Britain, France, the United States, Japan, and others. They publicly claimed that the goal was to secure Allied military supplies stockpiled in Russian ports (such as Arkhangelsk and Murmansk) to prevent them from falling into German hands during World War I. However, the mission quickly expanded into an all-out major war to really overthrow the new Bolshevik (Communist) government by supporting the anti-Bolshevik “White” forces in the Russian Civil War.
This intervention was a complete failure. The White forces were defeated, and the Bolsheviks consolidated power. The foreign troops were withdrawn by 1920 (with the Japanese staying in the Far East until 1925). The intervention created a deep and lasting sense of mistrust and siege mentality in the new Soviet Union, which they would exploit for decades about the motivations of the Capitalist powers.
Ironically, it was Germany that helped create the USSR by smuggling Lenin back from exile to Russia by train, to lead the revolution under the theory that Communists would keep Russia out of World War I. The goal was outright regime change, not conquest. The Allies aimed to topple the Bolsheviks and help install a government that would, they hoped, be friendly to their interests and perhaps re-enter the war against Germany. There was no plan to make Russia a British colony at that time. These are in addition to the attempts to conquer Russia by Hitler and Napoleon.
These are the words of Lindsey Grachm. He hates Russians like Iran and Hamas hates Jews. There is no talking with a NEOCON. You are the fool if you think you can ever convince them to live in peace. So if I were Putin, history shows that the West has at least 5 times interfered with Russia. They have never attempted to conquer Europe. I would be preparing for the 6th attempt, for the NEOCONS have 100% control of Europe and NATO. If Putin is humiliated, then they are praying for a coup and regime change in Russia to get to an all-out war ASAP. This is not about Ukraine.
This is about the conquest of Russia. They are doing their best to send Moldavia and Romania to their sacrificial altar of NEOCON vengeance as they did with Ukraine. The only hope for peace is for the West to wake the hell up and flush these NEOCONS and their endless wars down the drain as they hide in their bunkers.
They loved Biden. He was their biggest patsy, involved in decades of maneuvering to usurp the full military power of the United States. They destroyed the world economy by removing Russia from SWIFT, which set in motion BRICS. They care nothing for the people they send to die for their vengeance, but they also do not care about the nation, our future, or the average American. They must win at all costs.
Even the COMPUTER is targeting 2032, correlating with the Economic Confidence Model, which is NOT in this Array. The Arrays are entirely generated by the computer, which discovers cycles in any time series and backtests them to verify which are best. Keep in mind that we have two models of war: international and domestic. Both are targeting the same period for the first time since the 18th century. That produced the American and French Revolutions of the 18th century. That was followed by the 1848 Revolutions that swept Europe, also inspired by the Hard Times of the 1840s.
We are witnessing rising civil war potential based on this insane attempt to allow migrants in, who they believed would vote for gifts to retain their power. But the discontent is rising. Their lies and manipulations are fueling civil discontent in both Europe and America. Starmer is ruling Britain like Hitler by creating fear. He has imposed the greatest tyranny of all – criminalized free speech. Imprisoning anyone who dares to criticize his organized destruction of what was once known as Great Britain.

Trump is clearly listening to the NEOCONS, and he may believe their BS that Russia’s economy is collapsing, so Russia can be defeated in three days, as Kinzinger was claiming. Mark Rubio is a Neocon. I believe Trump hired him as a compromise to the Neocons. But he is taking us into World War III in slow motion. Trump is listening to the wrong people, and he had better look unbiased at why Putin is being put into a precarious position. He has insulted the dignity of Russia and reduced it to a meaningless 4th-world country. If Putin is replaced one way or in November, sorry, Europe will not recover. Germany fought against Russia in both World War I and World War II and lost both conflicts. A third time will NOT be the charm.
The Wall Street Journal and other outlets reported that President Trump signed off on providing U.S. intelligence agencies to supply targeting data to Ukraine for strikes on Russian energy infrastructure (oil refineries, pipelines, power plants). This suggests that now the US will select the target for Ukraine to attack. That is waging DIRECT WAR against Russia. They certainly can provide missiles to Venezuela and provide them targets for Washington, D.C., and put one right up Trump’s ass. I guess that would not be declaring war either.
However, it is not clear that “providing targeting” means full battlefield coordination, command & control, or direction of operations — most media accounts frame it as sharing intelligence, not taking over targeting decisions.
According to multiple sources, Trump authorized the sharing of targeting intelligence with Zelensky/Ukraine for strikes on specific energy infrastructure. This is the NECON argument: stop the energy sales of Russia, the country will collapse, and they can walk in and carve up Russia like a piece of pie. SO let’s see, Putin could strike and take our Wall Street, the US cannot borrow any more money, the economy would collapse since it is dependent on debt, and he could do the same to the USA.
NOBODY seems ever to consider that whatever they do to Russia, they could do the same to the USA and Europe. I am concerned that Putin has been restrained. He cannot agree to peace KNOWING that these Neocons want the destruction of Russia and will NEVER accept them into the world economy. They have already divided the world economy between SWIFT and BRICS, and this division is expected to remain unchanged until after 2032. NEOCONS are braindead assholes who NEVER think one step ahead and only act emotionally to what is in front of their nose with myopic vision.
The NY Post pushed an opinion advocating sending Tomahawk missiles to wipe out Russia. They said:
“Trump should now follow through by supplying Ukraine with long-range missiles to do the job — and ratcheting up the economic pressure on Russia.”
Again, this attitude assumes that Russia is incapable of launching any retaliation against the United States. Putin might as well just launch everything because there is NO POINT to any peace agreement, for Trump is a fool if he really believes this is just about Ukraine. This is about the destruction of Russia, and if he does not get rid of these advisers who have him isolated, we are sleepwalking into the end of Western Civilization.
There is NO WAY China will allow Russia to fall. These Neocons pushed Russia and China together. They will stand together with North Korea and Iran. These NEOCONS are really stupid. They will never be able to defend Europe, the Middle East, Taiwan, and Korea/Japan all simultaneously.
Venezuela’s International Support
Cuba has been a longstanding ally of Venezuela. Recently, Cuban diplomats in Angola reaffirmed their support for Venezuela against perceived U.S. aggressions. Russia has continued to support the Maduro government, sending troops to Venezuela in March 2019 and helping the government evade sanctions on the oil industry. China has continued to back the Maduro government, offering to help rebuild the national power grid. Iran has also expressed support for Venezuela, especially in the context of U.S. sanctions and military threats. The two countries have engaged in economic and diplomatic cooperation over the years. Both could also provide long-range missiles to Venezuela, just as Zelensky is demanding, so he can level the Kremlin. Russia could do that with Venezuela and target Washington, DC. Trump obviously never heard = what goes around, comes around.
Turkey has maintained a neutral stance but has occasionally criticized U.S. sanctions and expressed support for Venezuela’s sovereignty. Syria has been a vocal supporter of Venezuela, condemning U.S. actions and emphasizing the importance of respecting Venezuela’s sovereignty. Colombia has shown solidarity with Venezuela, especially in the context of U.S. sanctions and military threats. The country’s foreign minister recently renounced her U.S. visa in protest of U.S. actions against Venezuela.
Brazil has refrained from taking sides in the U.S.–Venezuela conflict. While President Lula has expressed concern over the U.S. naval presence in the Caribbean, describing it as a source of regional tension, he has not indicated any intention to intervene militarily on Venezuela’s behalf. However,
Left-leaning / socialist governments (currently or recently): Venezuela, Bolivia, Ecuador (varies over time), and sometimes Argentina and Chile, depending on elections. This is why Trump is supporting Argentina. If they flipped back to the LEFT mainly because of Trump’s war against Venezuela, then we can see turmoil in South America. Focusing strictly on war between South American states, the last significant one was the Colombia–Peru War of 1932–1933, which involved a territorial dispute over the Amazonian town of Leticia. It was resolved through mediation by the League of Nations.
Since then, South America has experienced chiefly internal conflicts (civil wars, insurgencies, and guerrilla movements) rather than interstate wars. Border disputes existed (like between Ecuador and Peru in 1995), but these were short-lived skirmishes rather than prolonged wars. However, Trump’s war with Venezuela runs the risk that, as the economy turns down, we can see a rise in anti-Americanism, and this will impact not just militarily, but also economically, with outstanding debt issues. Specifically, U.S. dollar-denominated debt accounts for approximately 92.6% of South America’s total public debt.
In August 1982, Mexico announced that it could no longer service its debt. This is often considered the official start of the Latin American debt crisis.
Other major South American countries quickly followed this:
Argentina (1982) Brazil (1983) Chile (1983) Venezuela (1983) Peru (1984) Bolivia (1984) Uruguay (1983)
This is the unspoken risk with a conflict with Venezuela, which does have the #1 largest oil reserve of any country on the planet.
These Neocons are BRAINDEAD, for they never consider not just the next step, like taking out Saddam, with no comprehension of what comes next. Still, they fail to feel that they are pushing Putin like he is meaningless, and what if he steps aside in November and hands it to their Neocons, for Russia is NOT going down without a fight. Putin has warned that they have bombs that will get these Neocons in their bunkers.
Demand Elections in Ukraine
Cut Off All Contact With Ukraine. They are a Patsy for NATO
Nobody cares that even one Ukrainian is still alive. Boris Johnson is running the show, instructing Zelensky that he is NOT allowed to have peace. He has already announced that Britain is at war with Russia and Trump expects Putin to surrender? Trump better open his damn eyes, he is being played like a fiddle by the Neocons.

It is not hyperbole to think the Moldovan election today may possibly determine whether a NATO war with Russia takes place, or whether the NATO desire for conflict slowly begins to dissolve. {GO DEEP}
The small country squeezed between Romania (the largest NATO super-base constructed) and Ukraine, is located in a critical area. Whether Moldova joins the EU, or whether Moldova remains independently free from Brussels influence, is part of the outcome. The Moldova Parliamentary Elections are today.
The EU/NATO are at a zero-sum inflection point. THIS is the tinderbox.
There are roughly 2.5 million registered Moldovan voters living in Moldova. However, the govt of President Maia Sandu and her EU control agents expect 500,000+ votes from outside Moldova to determine the election outcome.
Of the 3,000 poll watchers, 900 members of the international coalition to influence critical elections (aka western intelligence operatives) are currently active in Moldova providing real-time voter feedback.
The non-pretenders will note the intelligence these operatives return helps western IC determine how many mail-in ballots are needed for EU/NATO success to support President Sandu.
There are 300 polling stations opened across 41 countries. Britain hosts 24 stations, Germany 36, Italy 75, and Russia has two.
Voting in Moldova ends at 21:00 local (9pm)/15:00 ET, but mail in ballots will continue flowing. The first preliminary results should become known around 23:00 (11pm local). [5pm Eastern US.]
“About a year ago, while I was stuck in Paris, the French intelligence services reached out to me through an intermediary, asking me to help the Moldovan government censor certain Telegram channels ahead of the presidential elections in Moldova.
After reviewing the channels flagged by French (and Moldovan) authorities, we identified a few that clearly violated our rules and removed them. The intermediary then informed me that, in exchange for this cooperation, French intelligence would “say good things” about me to the judge who had ordered my arrest in August last year.
This was unacceptable on several levels. If the agency did in fact approach the judge — it constituted an attempt to interfere in the judicial process. If it did not, and merely claimed to have done so, then it was exploiting my legal situation in France to influence political developments in Eastern Europe — a pattern we have also observed in Romania
Shortly thereafter, the Telegram team received a second list of so-called “problematic” Moldovan channels. Unlike the first, nearly all of these channels were legitimate and fully compliant with our rules. Their only commonality was that they voiced political positions disliked by the French and Moldovan governments.
We refused to act on this request.
Telegram is committed to freedom of speech and will not remove content for political reasons. I will continue to expose every attempt to pressure Telegram into censoring our platform. Stay tuned.” (source)
Most people think of this Moldovan election as something happening “over there.” However, the outcome of this election will have ramifications for U.S. policy, up to and including potential war with Russia.

Keith Kellogg’s stupid statement that Russia’s war in Ukraine would end very quickly if Beijing withdrew its support for Moscow. He made the comments at a security conference in Kiev. He called Russia the “junior partner” to China and said it is losing the war in Ukraine. Such a statement is just insane. Like Iraq, nobody ever asked, if Ukraine defeats Russia, what would happen in Russia? This would be like saying What if Mexico invaded the USA and won?
After Germany lost World War I, there was a revolution that overthrew the monarchy, and the Weimar Republic was born, which then ended in hyperinflation. Even the Russian Revolution of 1917 was enabled by Russia’s disastrous performance in WWI, including massive casualties and economic collapse, which sparked widespread strikes and mutinies. The Tsar abdicated in March 1917, ending 300 years of Romanov rule; the Bolsheviks then seized power in November, leading to civil war and the Soviet Union.
Austria collapsed in 1918 after losing World War I. The empire’s multi-ethnic collapse after defeat led to ethnic revolts and declarations of independence in Hungary, Czechoslovakia, and elsewhere. The monarchy ended in November 1918, fragmenting into nation-states amid famine and military desertions.
The collapse of the Ottoman Empire also took place after World War I. The Turkish War of Independence and the abolition of the sultanate (1919–1923) unfolded. Allied occupation post-armistice fueled nationalist resistance led by Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. The sultanate was abolished in 1922, and the caliphate in 1924, birthing the Republic of Turkey after revolutionary reforms.
Xinhai Revolution (1911) followed the defeat in the First Sino-Japanese War of 1895. Humiliating territorial losses to Japan exposed the dynasty’s weakness, sparking anti-Manchu sentiment and Sun Yat-sen’s republican movement. The last emperor abdicated in 1912, ending over 2,000 years of imperial rule and ushering in the Republic of China.
Franco-Prussian War of 1870 saw the Paris Commune and fall of the empire (1870–1871). Napoleon III’s defeat led to the Third Republic’s proclamation. Radical workers then revolted in the Paris Commune, which was brutally suppressed, but the monarchy was permanently ousted.
These modern historical events illustrate a pattern without having to catalogue all the countless such events throughout human history. Wars drain resources, erode legitimacy, and amplify grievances (e.g., food shortages, casualties), creating fertile ground for revolutionaries. Not all post-war unrest leads to full regime change—e.g., Bulgaria’s monarchy survived WWI initially, only falling later in 1944. Nonetheless, these are clear instances of direct causation between revolution and the loss of a previous war.
In a post on his Telegram channel, Medvedev made the realistic statement that granting NATO members permission to down Russian drones operating in Ukrainian airspace would mean “war between the Alliance and Russia.” His comments followed growing calls in Europe and NATO to intervene in the war, demanding stronger Western action against Russia for its drone incursions while supporting Ukraine to use Western long-range missiles to attack even Moscow. On Sept. 12, Bundestag Defense Committee Chair Thomas Röwekamp urged NATO to begin intercepting Russian drones over Ukraine.
I have repeatedly stated that the psychological war tactic is that you MUST claim that an adversary has attacked you to get people to sign up. The support hasn’t been this low since 2022. This is why false flags are so important. They are used to claim you have been attacked, and then the common people will sign up to die on the battlefield for a noble cause.
That works on all sides. A new poll made by the independent Russian institute Levada shows that the Russians are growing tired of the war in Ukraine. The poll showed that 66%, or roughly two out of three, of the participants want the Kremlin to engage in peace negotiations with Ukraine. That is the highest number since 2022, when the war began. If NATO attacks Russia using a false flag, this will support the Rally Around the Flag for Russia. Let’s face it. Russians are treated with disdain as were the Jews before World War II. That is not a scenario that implies world peace lies ahead.
Senior military leaders from NATO member states have publicly assessed that the alliance would prevail in a conventional war against Russia relatively quickly due to overwhelming advantages in personnel (over 3.4 million active troops vs. Russia’s 1.3 million), aircraft (22,000+ vs. 4,000), ships (1,100+ vs. 400), defense spending (3.5 times Russia’s), and GDP (20 times larger).
In a February 2024 speech, UK Chief of the Defence Staff Admiral Sir Tony Radakin stated that “NATO would defeat Russia quickly,” citing Russia’s struggles in Ukraine as evidence of its military weaknesses and NATO’s growing strength with the addition of Finland and Sweden. Similarly, analyses from outlets like Al Jazeera and The Week conclude that NATO’s integrated command, superior training, and equipment would lead to a “quick” conventional victory. However, they warn that this could escalate to nuclear risks if Russia faces total defeat. As I have said, if I have a gun and you break into my house and threaten to kill me, I think I may shoot back.
Sensational claims, such as NATO submarines “destroying Russia in 30 seconds,” appear in YouTube videos and informal discussions but stem from hyperbolic speculation about nuclear scenarios, not official statements. Recent X posts echo debates on NATO’s superiority but often tie it to broader geopolitical tensions without referencing its past defeats. Overall, while NATO officials project confidence in deterrence, they prioritize avoiding direct war over public victory projections.
This push for war with Russia leaves out TWO critical factors
(1) China will support Russia because it knows it will be next, as they plainly told Kallas.
(2) This will turn nuclear, and Europe, with all its conventional power, can be turned to dust in minutes, not days.
“Europe is ready to take a step forward. We are ready to take control of the changes that are inevitable. Because we can’t let history push us around. This means that it is necessary to act now. Acting on a large scale is an indispensable condition for speed, scale and strength by 2030 … By 2030 Europe should have a strong European defense structure,” Ursula said.
This drone shot down in Poland from EVERY source I have states that this is a FALSE FLAG and there is no evidence that this every invaded Polish airspace. They desperately need to create a False Flag, get gullible people to sign their own death wish, so these failed EU leaders can keep their pensions. Ursula told the EU Parliament with great theatrics:
“Battle lines for a new world order based on power are being drawn right now,” von der Leyen told the European Parliament in her annual State of the EU address.
“So, yes, Europe must fight. For its place in a world in which many major powers are either ambivalent or openly hostile to Europe,” she said.
Putin is the smartest and responsible world leader at the table today. Remove him, and we will get an emotional leader like Medvedev. Speculating on a post-Putin Russia is inherently uncertain, as the regime’s opacity and Putin’s tight control over security services make a smooth transition debatable. An overthrow—whether via coup, elite infighting, or sudden death—would likely trigger a power struggle among siloviki (security elites), oligarchs, and technocrats, potentially leading to instability or even fragmentation. I would emphasize that no apparent clear heir exists, and the outcome depends on the circumstances: a managed handover (unlikely in an overthrow) versus chaotic removal.
I would list the potential replacements, prioritize loyalty to the current system, hawkish stances on Ukraine/NATO, and control over key institutions like the FSB, military, or economy, which will all come into play. Dmitry Medvedev is indeed a contender due to his proximity to Putin, but he’s not the top pick—his role is often seen as that of a “bad cop” provocateur rather than a unifying leader. Perhaps, but we are looking at an outright statement from the EU that Russia must be defeated and obliterated. We are not talking about just pushing Russia out of Ukraine.
Kaja Kallas, a ruthless Neocon, openly calls for the total destruction and breakup of Russia. This is the total destruction of the country. That is not something that should be taken lightly. That is the justification for nuclear war. Kallas is a greater threat to the EU than Putin.
MY LIST OF CONTENDERS:
Mikhail Mishustin, Prime Minister Nikolai Patrushev, Deputy Chair, Security Council (former FSB head) Sergei Sobyanin, Moscow Mayor Dmitry Medvedev, Deputy Chair, Security Council Andrei Belousov, Defense Minister Alexei Dyumin, Tula Governor (ex-bodyguard) Sergei Kiriyenko, First Deputy Chief of Staff
Medvedev’s name surfaces due to his history (tandem with Putin in 2008-2012) and recent high-profile positioning him as a “nuclear-ready” hardliner who could rally nationalists. X discussions often call him the “natural successor” for stability. However, he’s rarely ranked #1 in expert assessments—his provocative style (e.g., 2025 threats sparking U.S. sub deployments) makes him a Kremlin mouthpiece, not a consolidator. Others see him as a fallback, not a frontrunner, due to reputational damage from past “liberal” image and scandals. In an overthrow, elites might prefer Mishustin or Patrushev for their institutional grip.
Keep in mind that Khruschev was overthrown in a coup, and he was usurped by Bresnev because of his reckless handling of the Cuban Missile Crisis.
Post-Stalin USSR saw infighting; a similar “vicious struggle” would be likely if Russia were defeated in Ukraine, with FSB vs. military clashes. No democratic shift should be expected. Any successor would most likely double down on authoritarianism and anti-West policies, and any hope of world peace will be completely obliterated.
Then, for a coup, any replacement inherits a quagmire; hardliners like Patrushev or Medvedev might escalate, while technocrats like Mishustin seek de-escalation for economic relief.
In summary, Mishustin or Patrushev edge out as most probable for their balance of competence and control, but Medvedev remains a wildcard—loyal enough for continuity, radical enough for drama. Russia after Putin looks more like Putinism 2.0 than reform. This is all upset if NATO pushes its agenda to destroy Russia and break it up, strip mining its assets. This goal, as articulated in part by Kallas, warrants a fight to the death with nukes, and in this case, I would put my money on Medvedev, who has the high-profile that would become more valuable when confronted with the destruction of Russia, not with just pushing it out of Ukraine.

QUESTION: I believe you have said that the United States practices the law of tyrants, conspiracy, which only proves a thought crime, not that you committed a crime. Is this why you say we are doomed, because nobody will do real legal reform?
Wes
ANSWER: Our legal system adopted the tyranny of the king and replaced him with the Department of JUST US. Its combination of the Pinkerton rule, broad federal statutes like RICO, and the strategic, frequent use by prosecutors makes American conspiracy law one of the most potent and expansive in the world. The United States has the most anti-human rights legal system on the planet. For example, under Canon Law used in France, they cannot compel any family member to testify against you. In the United States, they can imprison your children until they testify against you. The only privilege is granted to a spouse or a priest. Then they will use a divorce to get around the spouse rule. Under the Canon law of the Catholic Church, the sanctity of the family unit comes first. Under English Common Law, precedent takes precedent. We had a revolution against the king’s tyranny, replacing him with local tyranny.
They love to call Russia and China authoritarian and communist. But look at the stats. You have a 340% greater chance of going to jail in the United States compared to China. The United States has the highest percentage of its population in prison of any country in the world, so much for liberty. Suppose you lie to a government official; that is perjury, punishable by up to 5 years. If a government official lies to you, that is legal.
Without the rule of law, civilization crumbles. Courts rule in favor of the government. Rarely will you find a judge who will truly defend the Constitution, and good luck in prosecuting a judge or a prosecutor.
