Europe has already made a fatal mistake. It has become a basket case fighting America's proxy war with Russia in Ukraine.

Any country that is involved in war will become a loser. There are no winners in waring factions.

The winners are all the other countries on the sidelines who watch and profit from selling wares to help out either party.


Europe gained much since Gorbachev 1990+ is largely down to Russia opening up and joining the free market and supplying her with gas, oil and a lot of Oligarchs money flowing into their economies one way or another.


Also, shocking UK building a case to increase spending on weapons and war when Russia poses no threat to Europe or UK. Some of the stuff I'm hearing on the radio is like fecked up politicians leading Joe public by the nose to the slaughter house.

I was talking with a friend and I said count how many wars US/UK been fighting since the 1990s compared to Russia. The noob replied Russia is in Syria. I said yes defending it from US and UK destabilising it to implement their own national interests to syphon oil from Iraq to the Mediterranean. How freaking remarkably stupid people and joe public can be.

Last I remember, UK had about 1% of World's nuclear arsenal, so when those buttons are pressed, we have about a FA chance of surviving or influencing much of what ever follows. Just sooooo stupid people thinking we will make a difference.

There are no winners in any War!

Worth pointing out at this juncture that a Trump victory in November is nigh on impossible, so if Putin and his apologists are relying on this happening, they will be sorely disappointed. Trump doesn't have broader support outside MAGA and will not gain sufficient backers to retake the Whitehouse. The Biden alternative is an equally disturbing prospect but when elected installed, I am quite sure that he will die in office and that the deep state already have a plan in place for continuity.

And Ukraine says its troops have faced mounting chemical attacks in recent months. The Reuters news agency reported earlier this year that Russian forces had used grenades loaded with CS and CN tear gases.
