COMMENT: Marty, congrats. That is a thank you letter for writing that peace plan. But the rumors are that Trump is going to reduce the size of American bases in NATO. I believe you are right. They came to you because you are on the opposite side of the Neocons for the same reason they would come to you because you are on the opposite side of the bankers in a crisis. You have endured so much and you keep fighting.
God Bless.

ANSWER: Yes, I believe I was called in because there is a divide with the Neocons pushing for war so they knew I had the sources and the contacts to be on the opposite side of the table. These Neocon Wars since Korea have undermined the economy, broke the bank of Bretton Woods, and has cost countless millions of lives all for their personal hatreds. They NEVER consider the nation or the inflation that they will create to achieve their war objectives which has so drastically altered the future for the youth. They only carte about their objectives in total isolation of everything else.
I reported on the private blog that Trump has conditioned the surrender of the Donbas to get security guarantees. That seems to be out in the press now. That is honoring the Minsk Agreement. Had the EU and Zelensky just honored what they signed, there would NEVER have been a war.
I am just so tired of the lies of this piece of shit who is trying to create World War III because he is a Neo-Nazi.
The day before Russia came to the aid of the Donbas in this civil war that Kiev started on the alleged orders of Victoria Nuland, to ensure Putin would cross the border, he declared that Ukraine would rearm with nuclear weapons. That was the final straw; Putin even noted that in his address to Russia. It was not any different than the JFK and the Cuban Missile Crisis.
The Washington Post found out that Zelensky knew when Russia would cross the border and did not warn his people. Like Hamas, he wanted civilians to be killed so he could blame Russia. When asked why he did not warn his people, he said it would have cost him $7 billion dollars. That is a war criminal.

Perhaps there is no greater example of how the EU elite couldn’t care less about the people who constantly support their hand-picked puppet Zelensky, yet turn a blind eye to his blowing up of Nord Stream. Every European leader who supports Zelensky should be thrown in prison for treason. ONLY the AFD in Germany has stood for law and order and recently said:
“Zelenskyy Should Pay for Blowing Up Nord Stream”
Zelensky does not care for anyone but himself. He has destroyed German jobs to try to hurt Russia and does not care what he does to anyone else. Any European that supports Ukraine is a traitor to the people of Europe.

From the outset, just 3 months into the war, I reported that Ukraine lost 100,000 soldiers. Some instantly accused me of put out Russian propaganda because they love to listen to the Neocon propaganda. It turns out that was classified information. Ursula von der Leyen, the head of the EU, had released a video and then edited it deleting that very information I reported at the request of Zelensky. All this is to hide the fact that Ukraine has been losing the war. With its armed forces down at least one-third in the first few months.
There is absolutely NOTHING that Zelensky has said that has proven to be true. In Italy, he claimed Russians were capturing children and torturing them. This was another outrageous lie. That allegation vanished. He says whatever he can to get money. He could have just complied with the Belgrad and Minsk Agreements but he is determined to lead the world into war. Trump, according to sources, has told him he must surrender the Donbas to get security guarantees.
The US Pentagon has come out and even said that they CAN NOT independently verify what took place in Bucha. There is no way to verify anything in Bucha and there are videos that show people laying in the street pretending to be dead with no blood and then there are videos showing they get up when the camera passes.
I have videos that are too horrible to even post of Ukrainian taking captured Russian soldiers, crucifying them, and then burning them alive. Ukraine is the motherland of ethnic cleansing. That is why the CIA protected them because they were killing Russians.
Anyone who thinks this I am Putin supporter, I will pay for your ticket to Ukraine and even buy you a gun. Go put your manipulated beliefs to the test.

The idea that Europe always tries to conquer Russia is a common historical fact. To be accurate, there have been several major conflicts initiated by European powers against Russia, driven by specific geopolitical, ideological, and strategic reasons. It’s not a constant effort by a monolithic “Europe,” but rather a series of distinct invasions from different Western powers at different times; the goal has always been to capture Russian wealth. They consistently rewrite history to justify their endless greed to conquer Russia. The truth about the January 1863 Uprising against Russia, it was the Polish-Lithuanian Army that invaded and even occupied Moscow until the Russian people staged an uprising to take their country back.
Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelensky, Lithuania’s President Gitanas Nauseda, and Poland’s President Karol Nawrocki met to commemorate the 1863 January Uprising against Russian rule. They have declared their hatred for Russians and boldly stated “Russia will ALWAYS be a threat.”
The January Uprising is a central symbol of Polish resistance and the fight for independence, and its memory is honored for its heroism and sacrifice. However, this is also a one-side revision of history.
The January Uprising of 1863 was not a war, it was a major Polish-Lithuanian rebellion against the Russian Empire that ended in a decisive defeat for the rebels. What they omit from their history books is the blunt fact that the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth invaded Russia during a period of profound crisis known as the Time of Troubles (c. 1598-1613). This was not a single, clear-cut war but a complex series of interventions and campaigns driven by Polish-Lithuanian ambition to conquer Russia for its wealth taking advantage of internal Russian instability. So to be historically correct, they sought to conquer Russia, lost, were then occuppied, and celebrate this 1863 uprising as if they were the victims of an invasion they launched and lost.
The Dimitriads (1605-1612) This refers to Polish-backed campaigns by pretenders to the Russian throne, known as False Dmitrys. False Dmitry I (1605-1606) with the support of Polish magnates, invaded Russia, gained support from disaffected Russians, and briefly seized the throne in Moscow. His rule ended with his assassination.
False Dmitry II (1607-1610) was a second pretender, also backed by Polish-Lithuanian forces and Cossacks, set up an alternate court near Moscow. His campaign further destabilized the country.
Then came the Polish-Muscovite War (1609-1618). As the chaos continued, King Sigismund III Vasa of Poland-Lithuania shifted from covert support for pretenders to an open, royal invasion with the goal of conquering Russia and placing his son (or himself) on the throne.
The Polish-Lithuanian army besieged and captured the key fortress city of Smolensk (1609-1611) after a long and brutal 20-month siege. A decisive Polish-Lithuanian victory over a much larger Russian-Swedish army took place at the Battle of Klushino in 1610. This opened the road to Moscow.
Polish Occupation of Moscow the took place 1610-1612. Following Klushino, a group of Russian boyars invited the Polish prince Władysław IV Vasa to become Tsar, on conditions including his conversion to Orthodoxy. Polish-Lithuanian troops entered and garrisoned the Moscow Kremlin. However, King Sigismund insisted he should be Tsar, negotiations broke down, and the occupation turned into a hostile siege from within the Kremlin itself.
A Russian national uprising, led by Kuzma Minin and Prince Dmitry Pozharsky, formed a militia and besieged the Polish garrison in the Kremlin. In November 1612, the starving Polish forces surrendered, ending the occupation. This event is now commemorated in Russia as National Unity Day.
The war officially ended with the Truce of Deulino (1618), which granted the Commonwealth significant territorial gains, including the Smolensk region. However, the primary goal of placing a Polish king on the Russian throne had failed.
The Polish invaded Russia during a civil war. The Commonwealth exploited Russia’s internal collapse (dynastic crisis, famine, peasant uprisings). It ultimately failed yet the Commonwealth gained territory, the core ambition of political control over Russia was defeated by a national uprising.
In Russia, this period is remembered as a patriotic struggle against foreign invaders. In Poland, it is seen as the zenith of the Commonwealth’s power and a “lost opportunity” to dominate Eastern Europe.
This invasion was a pivotal moment that deepened the long-standing rivalry between the two powers, setting the stage for future conflicts (like the Smolensk War and The Deluge) and contributing to a mutual distrust that shaped Eastern European history for centuries.
To this day, celebrating the January Uprising of 1863 is a revision of history for Russia has NEVER invaded Europe even once, whereas there have been five attempted conquests of Russia sll based on the fact that to this day, Russia is still the richest country on Earth from a natural resource perspective. In 1917, Russia had the largest gold reserves in the world. Someone hid them so the Communists would not get them, and they have never been found since.
The German Emperor Wilhelm II Imperial Government actually feared that Russia would enter World War I. The rising communist movement in Russia was anti-war. Germany saw a chance for victory in Europe if it kept Russia out of the war. Hence, Germany supported the Communist anti-war sentiment of the Bolsheviks in Russia. Germany permitted Vladimir Lenin (1870-1924) to travel in a sealed train wagon from his place of exile in Switzerland through Germany, Sweden, and Finland to Petrograd. Since the start of the February Revolution in Russia, Lenin was trying to figure out a way to get back into Russia. Germany aided his return assuming he was anti-war and would thus keep Russia out of World War I. Lenin returned to Russian on April 16th, 1917. Within months of arriving, Lenin led the October Revolution in Russia and the Bolsheviks seized power and indeed Russia withdrew from the world war. According to Leon Trotsky, the October Revolution would not have succeeded without Lenin.
The West has been abscessed with Russia for centuries. They are painted as evil and the excuse always changes. Before Gorbachev, it was that Russia was Communist and wanted to spread communism and conquer Europe. Communism collapsed all by itself, but the claim that Russia wants to still invade Europe remains. It does not matter who is the head of state in Russia, they will always change the narative to justify the conquest of Russia no matter what.
As one of our readers from Poland noted, the October 26th 2023 turning point was the precise day that President Duda called for a new Polish parliament to convene after the October 15th elections. Our models show a Directional Change in 2027 and that volatility in Poland was due to start rising here in 2026 all the way into 2034.
Europe seems to have a death wish because the EU experiment is failing. Instead of addressing the issues, they prefer to live in the past, assume they can conquer Russia and the 6th time will be the charm, celebrate with $75 trillion in assets, free gas for all, and the EU will rise to lead the world, which is why Carney is taking Canada into the arms of the EU.

QUESTION: The Kremlin refuses to end the war in Ukraine unless the Donbas region is surrendered. Zelensky has previously stated he will not hand over the Donbas region to Moscow. This looks like what you have said. No resolution. Are we headed into more warfare in February/March?
DG
ANSWER: Zelensky is a piece of shit and that’s a complement since he is far worse than that. He does not represent Ukraine and he takes his orders from the EU and NATO. Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia broke apart according to ethnic regions. The Minsk Agreement was the answer and I will remine everyone that Ukrainians hate the Russian people no different than Hamas vs Israel or Iran.
In May 2014, precisely on target, the Ukrainians began to attack Russians on the street, beating them and killing them. They wanted all Russians dead, and the Western Press turned a blind eye. The hatred in Ukraine of non-Ukrainians goes back to the ethnic cleansing they engaged in when they were Nazis. They hate Russians, along with all other minorities they hate and do not trust. The Donbas moved to separate after the Ukrainian were killing ethnic Russians on the street. If Russia surrendered the Donbas to Zelensky, they will carry out a massive genocide. He has already outlawed their religion, their language, and ordered that Christmas will no longer be in January. The Western press refuses to tell the truth and as such, they are paid to ensure we get war.
When we look at the blood war between Ukraine and Russia, we will reach a very critical turning point June 13th, 2026. Dmitry Medvedev said that Russia was very close to considering to nuke Ukraine last December when Zelensky attempted for a 3rd time to assassinate Putin.
President Trump has responded to the threats by Iran to kill him personally. As he said, such an act would warrant the total obliteration of a country that violated international law. Zelensky sent drone to try to kill Putin when flying in his helicopter. He knows that would set in motion World War III. Yet Zelensky continues to assassinate Russians whenever he get the chance and NATO cheers him on as they cannot wait to start war.
The target on NATO Agression is September 2nd, 2026. NOBODY seems to want peace. That is simple, Ukraine MUST honor the Minsk Agreement it signed, allow the people of the Donbas to vote on their own future. They surely will not want to be part of Ukraine which has been the mother-country of ethnic cleansing.
It was Kiev that started this war NOT Russia. They declared everyone in the Donbas to be a terrorist because they moved to separate after the Ukrainians were slaughtering Russians in Odessa. Anyone who thinks this is being a Putin supporter, grab your gun, go to Ukraine and defend the people would support.
The EU signed a peace deal and lied to Russia never intending to honor it. Merkel admitted that publicly that they would buying time for Ukraine to build an army to start World War III.
Before Russia crossed the border to defend the Donbas, he told Zelensky to his face that honoring the Minsk Agreement was paramount.
Our computer has gone flatline on Ukraine. It will NOT survive as we know it. Zelensky is lining his pockets and is sacrificing Ukraine at the direction of the Neocons. The Ukrainian people are just pawns on a chessboard for NATO. Nobody gives a second thought about the Ukrainian people.
Why Trump’s Art of the Deal Cannot Work in a Blood Feud
Trump thinks he’s negotiating a real estate deal. He sees territorial disputes over the Donbas, security guarantees, and NATO membership as “very thorny issues” that can be resolved through compromise. Get both sides to give a little, split the difference, shake hands, move on. The problem is you cannot negotiate with a Ukrainian. Sorry, I have tried. I even had two employees in Ukraine one on each side. You cannot reason. If you brought a bottle of vodka to dinner in Kiev and it was Russian, they regarded that as an insult and you were lucky if they did not smash it over your head and this was all before 2014.
This isn’t a real estate negotiation. This is even more than a regime survival. This is a deeply engrained blood feud. This has escalated to the point that the West does NOT appreciate the seriousness here. Putin isn’t fighting now just for the Donbas. He’s fighting to stay politically alive. Accepting a peace deal that leaves Ukraine in control of the Donbas invites WWIII. If Putin were forced out of Ukraine, this will be Coup #3 and then you will get a Russia Neocon who would have no problem engaging in WWIII knowing this is not about Ukraine, this is about the destruction of Russia. Coup #1 took place in 1964 after Khrushchev was forced to backdown after the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. Then Coup #2 was against Gorbachev after fears he might accept the deal to join NATO. Putin is NOT a hardline Neocon nor is he a Communist. That is why Boris Yelstin turned to him for the Communists had filed a motion to impeach him trying to stage Coup #3 to take Russia back to the USSR.
It is amazing to me how the press keep cheering the idea of defeating Putin. They cannot see the big picture nor can they contemplate what would be the next step. Russia does have Moscow ringed with Neutral Missiles. For those who do not know that a Neutron bomb is, let me explain it. A neutron bomb is a type of nuclear bomb, but it’s a special design that optimizes one effect (radiation) while minimizing others (blast and heat). Even if you are in a bunker, a neutron bomb generates such intense radiation that it would penetrate shelters, buildings, and even reach into a bunker killing the people inside without causing major damage to the structure. However, what this would also do is actually neutralize an incoming nuclear missile. It would fry all electronics.
Besides Russia’s hypersonic missiles, it also has the Shkval (VA-111 Shkval) rocket torpedo. It travel inside a bubble within water. The “bubble” is the key to its incredible speed. This is known as Supercavitation. Instead of trying to move through dense water, the Shkval creates a giant, continuous gas bubble (a cavity) around its entire body. This reduces the friction with a Gas Generator. The nose of the torpedo has a cavitator. As it moves, a gas generator (usually burning fuel) expels hot gas through this nose, creating and maintaining the bubble.
Inside this bubble of gas, the torpedo experiences dramatically reduced hydrodynamic drag—essentially, it’s flying through a gas envelope rather than plowing through water. This allows it to reach speeds impossible for conventional torpedoes. It is know to have Reported Speeds of 200 knots and possibly greater (approximately 230 mph or 370 km/h). This is 4-5 times faster than a standard Western torpedo (which typically travels 40-50 knots). Its propulsion instead of a propeller is a solid-fuel rocket engine for its initial sprint, then a liquid-fuel ramjet for sustained speed in later models.
The Western press make it sound that Russia is weak, and we can take them with zero causalities with one arm tied behind our back. Putin is NOT a Neocon. Replace him and you will get a Neocon who will be as irresponsible our our Neocons who have no regard for human life. They think this is a video game of Maro Brothers and they have to win at all costs, which is everyone else’s children – never their own.

The bad news is that nothing much visible has changed in language or action from the negotiations. The good news is that for the first time military leadership from Russia, Ukraine and the USA joined with the diplomatic negotiators. This could indicate they are trying to work out the details on just how a ceasefire could be executed.
For the first time a trilateral discussion was held between the warring parties of Ukraine and Russia with the U.S. team working as an intermediary. The venue was the UAE acting as neutral turf for the discussion. According to Ukraine President Zelensky, the meeting in the Emirates was the first time representatives from Ukraine, Russia, and the United States were engaged in a trilateral format since the full-scale war began.
Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner traveled to the UAE meeting after three hours of discussions with Russian Federation President Vladimir Putin in Moscow. Zelensky noted the arrangements were coordinated by the American side, describing the meeting as one of several unexpected diplomatic initiatives that emerged during negotiations.
ZELENSKYY – Our delegation delivered a report; the meetings in the UAE have concluded. And this was the first format of this kind in quite some time: two days of trilateral meetings. A lot was discussed, and it is important that the conversations were constructive.
The negotiations also involved military representatives from all three sides. From our side, today’s participants included Rustem Umerov, Kyrylo Budanov, Andrii Hnatov, Davyd Arakhamiia, Sergiy Kyslytsya, and Vadym Skibitskyi. From the American side, the participants were Steve Witkoff, Jared Kushner, Dan Driscoll, Alexus Grynkewich, and Josh Gruenbaum. The Russian side was represented by members of their military intelligence and armed forces.
The central focus of the discussions was the possible parameters for ending the war. I highly value the understanding of the need for American monitoring and oversight of the process of ending the war and ensuring genuine security.
The American side raised the issue of potential formats for formalizing the parameters for ending the war, as well as the security conditions required to achieve this.
As a result of the meetings held over these days, all sides agreed to report back in their capitals on each aspect of the negotiations and to coordinate further steps with their leaders. The military representatives identified a list of issues for a potential next meeting. Provided there is readiness to move forward – and Ukraine is ready – further meetings will take place, potentially as early as next week. I expect a personal briefing from the delegation upon its return.
I am grateful to the United Arab Emirates, and personally to the President of the Emirates, for their mediation and their readiness to host further meetings.
Ukraine is working for peace and security. Thank you to everyone who is helping. (link)
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stunned the World Economic Forum by revealing European leaders privately urged him not to mention long-range weapons like Tomahawks. Zelenskyy said Europe’s fear of offending allies, internal rivalries, and silence are allowing Russia to keep striking Ukraine—and could soon threaten NATO itself.

Peace was never an option. The Russia-Ukraine war was plotted out over a decade ago by people unassociated with either nation. The Plot to Seize Russia explains everything in detail. Yeltsin handed Putin the reins to protect Russia from the oligarchs. The West installed Zelensky to quietly control Ukraine and position it for battle. Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel admitted that the Minsk Agreement was a lie, an appeasement to pass time to allow Ukraine to build its military.
World leaders continually declare that Russia shows no signs of accepting peace. “What we’ve seen is the huge commitment to work being done by Ukraine, with the US and supported by Europe to draw up plans for peace including security guarantees,” Britain’s Foreign Secretary, Yvette Cooper said. “But so far, I don’t see the evidence that Putin is yet willing to come to the table, or yet willing to have discussions.”
“Most importantly, we want peace and harmony to reign in Ukraine, and we are ready to work together with other countries to do everything to facilitate and support such a development,” President Putin stated on March 17, 2014, during his reunification speech.
“For eight years, for eight long years, we have done everything possible to resolve the situation by peaceful political means,” Putin said on a televised address on February 24, 2022, when Russia began its “special military operation” in Ukraine. Moscow was prepared to honor the Minsk Agreement, but Europe was not. The Minsk Agreement is paramount. Putin has repeatedly called for peace over the past four years.
“We are set on serious negotiations with Ukraine. Their aim is to eliminate the root causes of the conflict and to achieve a long‑term lasting peace for a historical perspective,” the Russian President said in May 2025 when he discussed a potential ceasefire. Dmitry Peskov, Kremlin spokesman, reiterated readiness for “a peaceful settlement to end the war.”
The headlines continue to spit out propaganda—peace is not an option. Peace IS an option for Russia, and perhaps Ukraine, but the neocon elite simply will not allow the war to end. Zelensky seemed willing to accept a peace deal in 2022, but the UK’s Boris Johnson promptly talked him out of accepting the deal.
I submitted my peace proposal to Washington in November 2025. The Trump Administration, perhaps with the guidance of my proposal, created a strategy for peace that only one side was willing to accept.
War is a great way to default on debts. You get to form a new government, and they always disavow the debts of the previous government. Europe has been committing economic suicide. Between the COVID-19 Lockdowns, the NET-ZERO Climate Change, and then the sanctions on Russia that doubled their fuel costs, you could not ask for a more brain-dead group of politicians who have ZERO comprehension of even how the economy functions.
