Why Russia Will Defeat NATO in Ukraine
By Mike Whitney.  Global Research, July 17, 2024

NATO's Stoltenberg (center) and Biden—clueless, supremely arrogant and stupid. Led by criminals and idiots, rowing against history, the West is an empire adrift.


NATO’s three-day summit in Washington DC achieved the objective for which it was designed, to create a public forum in which all 32 members of the Alliance could express their unanimous support for upcoming attacks on the Russian Federation. That was the real purpose of the confab. The managers of the event, sought a dramatic display of unity to justify future hostilities with Moscow and to reduce the possibility that any one person would be held responsible for starting World War 3.


The summit was followed by the release of a formal Declaration which strongly suggests that the decision to go war has already been made. As many people know, NATO has green-lighted a policy that allows the firing of missiles at targets inside Russian territory. This policy will also apply to the numerous NATO F-16s that will be deployed to Ukraine sometime in the near future. (F-16s can carry nuclear missiles) Despite overwhelming support for these policies among the members, we must not forget that these are blatant acts of aggression that are forbidden under international law. No amount of public relations hoopla can conceal the fact that NATO is on-track to commit the “supreme crime”.

It’s worth noting, that NATO intends to take a more active role in the conduct of the war. According to National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, the Alliance plans to formally establish a NATO office inside Ukraine that will be used to oversee military operations. In short, the managers of the conflict no longer have any interest in concealing their involvement. This is now a NATO operation. Here’s an excerpt from an article at the World Socialist Web Site:

This NATO office will accompany the creation of a NATO command to oversee the war in Ukraine, transitioning the provision of weapons and logistical oversight from an ad hoc group led by the United States to the NATO alliance itself.

Sullivan’s remarks outlined the main agenda items of the three-day summit in Washington, which is expected to signal a major escalation of the conflict with Russia in Ukraine and plans to significantly increase NATO’s capabilities to fight a full-scale war throughout Europe….

He said the summit will also announce “a new NATO military command in Germany led by a three-star general that will launch a training, equipping, and force development program for Ukrainian troops….”

The creation of a NATO office in Kiev and the reorganization of weapons provision, training and military logistics under a direct NATO command marks the end of any pretense that the conflict in Ukraine is not a war between NATO and Russia. It marks a dangerous new phase in the war, raising the prospect of a major escalation. Washington summit will announce plans to set up NATO office inside Ukraine, WSWS

Add all of this to the fact that the Summit Declaration posits that Ukraine is now on an “irreversible” path to NATO membership, and it becomes clear that every effort is being made to provoke Moscow.

Not surprisingly, Russia was thoroughly demonized in the Declaration which follows the familiar pattern we have seen with other enemies of Washington including Saddam, Qaddafi and Assad. Here’s a brief summary of “evil” Russia directly from the text:


  • Russia remains the most significant and direct threat to Allies’ security…
  • Russia bears sole responsibility for its war of aggression against Ukraine, a blatant violation of international law, including the UN Charter.
  • There can be no impunity for Russian forces’ and officials’ abuses and violations of human rights, war crimes, and other violations of international law.
  • Russia is responsible for the deaths of thousands of civilians and has caused extensive damage to civilian infrastructure.
  • We condemn in the strongest possible terms Russia’s horrific attacks on the Ukrainian people, including on hospitals, on 8 July…
  • We are determined to constrain and contest Russia’s aggressive actions and to counter its ability to conduct destabilizing activities towards NATO and Allies… Washington Summit Declaration, NATO

Washington’s ferocious repudiation of Russia leaves no doubt as to where all this is heading. It’s headed for war.

The authors of this declaration were reiterating the views of the billionaire elites who are determined to roll-back Russia’s battlefield gains, topple the political leaders in Moscow, and splinter the country into smaller, more-manageable statlets. Russia represents the most formidable obstacle to Washington’s overall geopolitical strategy of projecting power into Asia, encircling China, and establishing itself as the preeminent power in the world’s most prosperous region. These strategic objectives are invariably omitted in the media’s coverage, but they are the underlying factors that shape events. Here’s Biden:

And we know Putin won’t stop at Ukraine. But make no mistake, Ukraine can and will stop Putin — (applause) — especially with our full, collective support. And they have our full support. “Ukraine can and will stop Putin.” The White House


The truth is that the war was triggered by NATO enlargement, an inconvenient fact that NATO chairman Jens Stoltenberg has admitted on numerous occasions. Some readers might also recall that—during the peace negotiations between Kiev and Moscow in April 2022—Russia’s primary demand was that Ukraine reject NATO membership and declare permanent neutrality. Zelensky agreed to those terms which, in effect, prove that Putin’s action was linked to NATO expansion. There is virtually no proof that Putin wants to conquer Europe. None. Putin simply wants Ukraine to honor its treaty obligations regarding neutrality. Check out this excerpt by Ted Snider at Antiwar.com:

Ukraine.. promised to stay out of NATO. Its non-alignment was enshrined in the foundational documents of the independent state of Ukraine.



Article IX of the 1990 Declaration of State Sovereignty of Ukraine states that Ukraine “solemnly declares its intention of becoming a permanently neutral state that does not participate in military blocs.” That promise was repeated in Ukraine’s 1996 Constitution, which committed Ukraine to neutrality and prohibited it from joining any military alliance. But in 2019, President Petro Poroshenko amended the Ukrainian Constitution, committing Ukraine to the “strategic course” of NATO and EU membership.

NATO’s 75th Anniversary: The Broken Promises That Led to War, Antiwar.com

The issue, of course, could have been resolved long ago if Washington had acted in good faith, but Washington has not acted in good faith. In fact, Washington is still determined to inflict a “strategic defeat” on Russia in order to implement its “pivot to Asia” strategy to ensure its future as the world’s only unchallenged superpower. These goals cannot be achieved without escalation, confrontation and a full-blown war. The NATO summit is merely a prelude to a broader and more violent conflict between the nuclear superpowers.

The question we should be asking ourselves is whether NATO can actually win a war with Russia. Can it?

The answer is “No”, it cannot.

Why?

Here’s how military analyst Will Schryver answers that question:

I have done my research — for years, dating back long before 2022…. I repeatedly warned that it (Ukraine) was a war the US/NATO could never win….There is a VAST difference between the “on paper” strength of NATO (including the US) and their actual war-fighting capability. The US could not assemble, equip, field, and sustain even 250k combat effectives in eastern Europe, and any attempt to do so would necessitate the evacuation of every major US base on the planet. The US/NATO not only could not win a war against Russia, but they would be eviscerated in the attempt.

Alerted by the US/NATO destruction of Yugoslavia, Iraq, and Libya, the Russians have spent the past 25 years — and particularly the past two years — engaged in a massive and exceedingly impressive military build up and modernization in preparation for an eventual war against the US/NATO. In the past 2+ years, t hey have methodically destroyed Ukraine’s three successive proxy armies with one arm tied behind their back. Their force generation, combat training, and military industrial production far exceed the entire NATO bloc combined. I appreciate the degree to which military analytical tourists like yourself have been thoroughly propagandized by Hollywood fantasies and the western state-controlled media, but wars are not fought and won by imaginary narratives and flashy superheroes. They are won by raw firepower — a metric by which the tripartite alliance of Russia, China, and Iran now possess supremacy over their hubris-drunken enemies in the rapidly eroding American Empire. There is only one sane option at this point: relinquish empire and make peace with the resurgent civilizational powers of the earth. Otherwise much of modern human civilization itself is at risk of being destroyed, and it will take centuries to recover. Ukraine Can’t Win, Will Schryver, Twitter

There’s also the niggling issue of “magazine depth” which refers to the stockpiles of weaponry and munitions required to outlast and eventually defeat the enemy. Here’s Schryver again:

There is no doubt Israel (just like its great benefactor, the United States) is, in the context of a “big war”, capable of executing several damaging strikes against a potential peer or near-peer adversary. But, throughout the imperial domain, there are fatal weaknesses that exist right now, and which cannot be turned into strengths at any point in the near- or medium-term. The first is what military types call “magazine depth”: munitions stockpiles sufficient to offensively overwhelm, defensively defeat, and strategically outlast the enemy. Neither the United States, nor any of its largely impotent client nations, possess “magazine depth” sufficient to prosecute anything more than a relatively brief campaign against their potential peer adversaries: Russia, China, Iran — and all or any of their lesser-power partners. Magazine Depth, Will Schryver, Twitter

What Schryver is saying is as profound as it is alarming. The United States and NATO will not prevail in a war with Russia because they do not have the industrial capacity, the force generation, the combat training, the magazine depth or the overall firepower of Russia. By every metric, they are the inferior fighting force. Additionally, Russia has already killed or captured hundreds of thousands of the “the best-trained and best-equipped soldiers in the Ukrainian army”. That army has already been effectively annihilated. The troops in the trenches today are poorly trained, unskilled, low-morale rookies who are being slaughtered by the thousands. Does anyone seriously believe that NATO involvement can turn this train around and secure a victory? Here’s more from Schryver:

The Russians have demonstrated that they can routinely shoot down ANY species of strike missile the US/NATO can field against them — not all of them all of the time, but most of them most of the time. And they get better and better at it as time goes on.

Indeed, over the past few months it is increasingly becoming “all of them most of the time”…. As Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu reported earlier this week:

“We are using air defence systems in a comprehensive manner during the special military operation. This significantly improved their responsiveness and strike range. Over the last six months, we have shot down 1,062 of NATO’s HIMARS rockets, short-range and cruise missiles, and guided bombs.”

No other military on the planet has previously attested this level of capability. The US does not have it, and is at least a decade away from developing it….

The current front-line inventory of US tactical ballistic missiles and sea- and air-launched cruise missiles would present no greater technical challenge for Russian air defenses than what they have already seen and defeated in the Ukraine War. The significance of this battlefield development defies exaggeration. It alters the war-fighting calculus that has been assumed for many decades. Empty Quiver, Will Schryver, Twitter

Some readers may find it hard to believe that NATO would rush into a war without thoroughly researching its prospects for success. But that is precisely what’s happening here. Blustery Uncle Sam foolishly believes that he will win as soon as he “throws its hat in the ring. He can’t accept that the scales are tipped in Russia’s favor and that his entry into the war will be met with a thunderous response. But that is the reality he faces. Here’s Schryver one last time:

NATO would face enormous problems of coordination, doctrine and force generation, even if it could agree an objective. Its troops are not trained for this kind of war and have never operated together…..

(they) would be hard-pressed to field a force more powerful than the reported nine Brigades trained and equipped by the West for the Great Offensive of 2023, which just bounced off the Russian forces without achieving anything of note….

The US has no ground combat units in Europe remotely suited to high-intensity land warfare…. Given enough time, money, political will and organization, most things are possible. But there is no chance… of NATO assembling a force which would constitute anything more than a nuisance to the Russians, while putting many lives in danger…… NATO’s Phantom Armies, Will Schryver, Substack

I am convinced that there is a delusional element within the foreign policy establishment that have convinced themselves that NATO will defeat Russia if they face each other on a battlefield in Ukraine. Schryver’s analysis helps to show why that’s not going to happen.

DIRTY, DARK SECRETS OF D-DAY
by Jeff J. Brown

Today marks the 80th anniversary of the Allied D-Day Landing in France.

I’m sure not going to make any friends among the French side of my family, by writing this post. They have roots in Normandy and have been coming to Arromanches-les-Bains for summer vacations for four generations.

I live is this small village where Allied troops arrived on D-Day, June 6th, 1944, with their celebrated floating port, that was shipped over from England and built on site, to bring in all the materiel needed for the invasion. The family house we live in was billeted as the Allied post office and we can see the landing beach from it. On the paternal side, the other house here, since it looks right out over the water, where the port was built was badly damaged and burned. Needless to say, my attachment to D-Day is above average.

The landing was a daring, brilliant operation, getting high marks as a feat of engineering, while thousands of US, British and Canadian soldiers died during and after the invasion.

Today there will be lots of celebrations. Thousands of people, including global leaders and dignitaries come.

So far, so good. Be that as it may, Russian President Vladimir Putin has been snubbed for years, as has Chinese President Xi Jinping. Russia always invites Western leaders to attend Victory Day in Moscow, every May 9th. Since 2015, V-Day in China is honored on September 3rd and all Western leaders are invited (http://chinarising.puntopress.com/2015/09/04/from-may-9th-in-moscow-to-september-3rd-in-beijing-the-anti-west-order-comes-full-circle-moscow-beijing-express-on-the-saker-44-days-radio-sinoland/). Nevertheless, Eurangloland leaders continue to refuse to participate in these events, which is a sad statement indeed, about the arrogance and racism of empire. To do so would be to admit the truth: Allied forces did not liberate Europe and Asia from global fascism. The Soviet Union (Russia) and China did.

Yes, thousands of Allied soldiers died during World War II and with them, a total of 966,000 military and civilian people in the two theaters, east and west, were lost among the Five Eyes allied countries: the US, Britain, Canada, Australia and New Zealand (https://www.nationalww2museum.org/students-teachers/student-resources/research-starters/research-starters-worldwide-deaths-world-war). At the same time, Russia and China each lost no fewer than 25,000,000 citizens, a total of 50 million, with credible research showing they each lost closer to 35 million compatriots, or 70 million total. Even at the lower figure, Russia and China lost 50 times more people than the allied countries together. Put another way, the Allies lost 2% as many people as Russia and China combined.

For the record, here is the verified data on Chinese deaths to defeat Japan and Western forces (principally USA) to gain liberation in 1949,

Chinese Civil War 1924-1949
Group Deaths
CPC                      10,650,000
KMT                        6,250,000

Civilians – Other to 1945                        8,000,000
Civilians – 1946-1949                        2,500,000
TOTAL DEATHS                       36,400,000
China’s population at liberation in 1949                       400,000,000

More statistics reveal hard truths that totally demythify relentless, Western Big Lie Propaganda Machine (BLPM) brainwash. In June 1944, when the Allies landed outside my window, Germany had 287 divisions of troops, with seven in Germany, 150 on the Eastern Front and 66 on the Western (French) Front. You can do the math. This means that the D-Day landing was doing battle against only 23 percent of the Wehrmacht’s forces (https://www.axishistory.com/axis-nations/134-campaigns-a-operations/campaigns-a-operations/2085-number-of-german-divisions-by-front-in-world-war-ii). This, while the Soviet Red Army was grinding Nazis into dog food, on its relentless drive towards Berlin, losing millions of its own in the process.

It’s the same story in the Pacific, about which I wrote in The China Trilogy (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2018/06/30/praise-for-the-china-trilogy-the-votes-are-in-it-r-o-c-k-s-what-are-you-waiting-for/). Mao Zedong and the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) were fighting three enemies simultaneously: fascist Japan, fascist Chiang Kai-Shek’s Guomindang (GMD, oftentimes noted as KMT) and imperialist United States. Western propaganda likes to censor the fact that the US gave GMD billions of dollars in weapons, materiel and training, with 100,000 red-white-and-blue military personnel fighting side-by-side with them, along with many remaining Japanese troops, trying to exterminate the unstoppable Chinese Communist revolution.

Allied forces did not liberate Europe and Asia from global fascism. The Soviet Union (Russia) and China did.

Before Japan’s surrender on September 3rd, 1945 to China, the United States in the Pacific theater was fighting only 18% of the Japanese Imperial Army. The other 82% were bogged down in China and Japan, thanks to Mao Zedong, the PLA (People’s Liberation Army), millions of revolutionary citizen martyrs, whose heroic efforts freed their nation from foreign terrorism and the West’s illegal drug cartel (opium, morphine and heroin) that was destroying the Chinese people.

The Allies had a hell of time fighting against only 23% of Germany’s might in France and the US had its hands full fighting 18% of Japan’s forces. Let’s be honest, if it weren’t for the Russians and Chinese killing the vast majority of fascist Axis troops, and dying themselves by the tens of millions to reach victory, it’s highly unlikely the Allies would have gotten very far against a bigger force in the two theaters. In both cases, the Allies got into World War II when Russian and Chinese victories were already a foreseen conclusion.

What we can say is that the Allies helped prevent the Soviets from invading Japan, which they were preparing to do, and they stopped the Red Army in Germany, instead them being able to finish off the Nazi Wehrmacht in France. The Allies can take credit for reducing Stalin’s negotiating chips by five countries, France, Belgium, Holland, Luxembourg and Lichtenstein, but that’s about it. Germany and Japan would have still lost against the Russians and Chinese, without any Allied participation. These sobering truths are vehemently refuted and censored behind the Great Western Firewall, with two generations of BLPM psychological warfare, ongoing, but are undeniable.

Truman’s atomic bombs that incinerated two cities’ worth of civilians, Hiroshima and Nagasaki, were not the reason the Japanese emperor surrendered to the United States on August 14th, 1945.

First, as background, General Curtis LeMay was transferred from Europe to China in the fall of 1944. He was not satisfied with the destructiveness of classic (saturation) bombing missions with traditional aerial bombs being used in China and Japan. Harvard University had just developed their M69 incendiary bomb, with a war crime concoction of phosphorous and napalm. LeMay’s psychopathy and Yankee racism, with being able to quickly kill lots of “Yellow niggers” on a grand scale (https://chinarising.puntopress.com/2018/01/06/slavs-and-the-yellow-peril-are-niggers-brutes-and-beasts-in-the-eyes-of-western-empire-china-rising-radio-sinoland/), aligned for American genocide in China and Japan. Wuhan, a mighty industrial center on the Yangtze River, and in Mao Zedong’s home province, was a hotbed of communist activity, as well as being used by the Japanese as a logistics base. Red Chinks and Yellow Nips was a two-fer trophy for LeMay and the US Air Force. Double the fun.

On December 18th, 1944, 94 US B-29 Fortress Super Bombers were loaded full, with 500 tons of Harvard’s genocidal M69 bombs. In a matter of a few hours, 40,000 innocent Wuhan citizens were incinerated, along with their neighborhoods (www.chinaww2.com/2015/09/12/the-us-firebombing-of-wuhan-part-1/).

Not stopping there, the USA continued to mass bomb Taiwan, China, which was isolated and a threat to no one.

On March 1st, 1945, Tainan, Taiwan, one of the island’s largest and oldest cities, 44 B-24 Liberators dropped 387 incineration 500-pound bombs across residential areas. March 12-13, 1945, another 84 1,000-pounders were unleashed on the citizens below. On March 20th, 1945, 34 B-24s finished off the civilian city of Tainan with 260-pound fragmentation bombs, 100-pound napalm bombs and 100-pound incineration bombs, burning untold thousands of innocents.

USA genocide in China continued in Taipei, Taiwan, where only civilian targets were left. On May 31st, 1945, 117 B-24s dropped 3,800 bombs in the heart of the city, in only three hours. Officially, 3,000 were killed, which was likely a gross underestimate, and the wounded weren’t even counted, since the US-supported GMD fled to the island after losing to the communist PLA.

The USA’s senseless, genocidal bombing slaughter in China was and is completely censored by the BLPM and expunged from the history books.

Having shown its effectiveness in exterminating tens of thousands of civilians, as well as incinerating their homes in a matter of hours, it was time for the USA to begin its campaign of genocide in Japan. Kobe was the first city to be scorched off the face of Japan’s map, in February, 1945 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M69_incendiary). American genocidists had the blood lust, racist-filled time of their lives, continuing to incinerate 67 Japanese cities by fire bombing. Millions of women, children and elderly were torched to death, while causing many more millions to be homeless and dying of starvation. With Japan becoming a weak US, postwar vassal, these numbers are heavily officially underestimated.

Still, the emperor did not call it quits. This, while the United States repeatedly refused Japan’s requests to negotiate a surrender. Hiroshima and Nagasaki were simply cities number 68 and 69 to be pulverized into non-existence, along with 200,000 innocents turned to dust. Déjà vu. Tokyo lost 100,000 on March 9th, as many as each of these two A-bombed cities, and millions more were slaughtered in between. The fact that the Japanese knew the two A-bombs were different than the 2,000,000 high-explosive and 5,000,000 incendiary bombs that had already destroyed the country was of no consequence to them (https://www.answers.com/Q/How_many_bombs_were_dropped_in_Japan_during_World_War_2).

Losing two more cities on top of the 67 already disappeared was not why he surrendered. What caused the emperor to capitulate was that the Soviet Red Army had just wiped out Japan’s best army, the one in Manchuria, in Northern China. The Russians annihilated 80,000 of Japan’s finest in just ten days, and were heading for the Yellow Sea coast to launch an invasion of Japan. The thought of 100,000 Red Army troops (he was anti-communist and racist against the “Slavic hoard”) swarming over what was left of Japan was why the emperor surrendered, not because the US torched two more cities to the ground, on top of the previous 67. This is another statement of fact that is continually denied by the West’s BLPM.

Nor are these some pro-commie ravings. Even uber-establishment Foreign Policy magazine admitted the same thing (https://foreignpolicy.com/2013/05/30/the-bomb-didnt-beat-japan-stalin-did/).

Back here in France, there is another dirty, dark secret about D-Day, and that is the Allies gratuitously massacred tens of thousands of French citizens in Normandy, leading up to and after June 6th, 1944. The United States and Britain committed war crimes, by needlessly bombing many cities in Normandy and beyond in France, when they knew that they were not killing German troops, nor destroying their materiel.

These genocidal D-Day bombings caused the unnecessary death of 50,000 French citizens, war crimes all. American soldiers also found the time to rape 3,620 French girls and women during and after the invasion. Yank troops also raped 2,420 English lassies behind the lines, and 11,040 German ladies on the front. Given that only one out of ten rapes is ever reported, this shocking truth was undoubted grossly underreported (https://wais.stanford.edu/ztopics/week020105/france_050201_civilianskilledinwwII.htm), as it was in Japan, Korea, Vietnam and everywhere US soldiers are stationed.

All in all, the Allies bombed over 1,500 cities in France, most of them at least 75% leveled. Along with the 50,000 aforementioned massacred, 100,000 French were injured, and millions were left homeless and starving, having lost 420,000 homes, with another 890,000 partially destroyed. Let those numbers sink into your grey matter for a while. The occupying Germans killed around 30,000 Frenchmen, making them look like honorable saints, compared to the bloodthirsty Allies.



Italy was also gratuitously wiped out by Allied bombs. In fact, over one-third of all Allied bombs in Europe were dropped on France and Italy, with 60,000 Italians also exterminated (https://impact.ref.ac.uk/casestudies/CaseStudy.aspx?Id=36238).


Roman house destroyed in 1944. The graffiti on the wall reads, ironically: "This is the work of the liberators".


Why, except to weaken two large non-Anglo-Saxon “allies” and make them totally dependent on the USA and Britain, postwar? Spain and Portugal were already loyal fascist dictatorships in service to Western global capitalism, so along with Germany destroyed, the economic, industrial and agricultural heartland of Europe was devastated by all this genocide and infrastructure destruction.

Having come to Arromanches many times since 1988 (and living here for five years in the late 90s), I can attest that the French are in complete denial about the Allied genocide. It is telling that the English version of Wikipedia lists 50,000 killed, whereas the same page in French records only 20,000 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombing_of_Normandy and https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bombardement_de_la_Normandie). A humiliating and shameful reality that the French cannot face, it was finally publicly acknowledged by a leading official, President François Hollande, in 2014, for the 70th D-Day landing anniversary, right here in little Arromanches-les-Bains (https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-27703724). That year, Russian President Vladimir Putin was allowed to come participate (the last time since and Xi Jinping never invited). Knowing the true facts about World War II and who really won the war and Putin standing nearby, maybe Hollande made it official out of a guilty conscious.

The West developed its bloodlust for massacring millions from the air during World War II. Germany killed 20,000 Brits by aerial bombing. Allies bombed more than 1,000 German cities, just like they did all across France, Italy and Japan, targeting above all else many millions of innocent civilian women, children and elderly and destroying thousands of cultural and religious heritage sites (http://www.revisionist.net/bombing-germany.html and https://ww2db.com/battle_spec.php?battle_id=55). It was even official policy, as told to the bomber pilots,

Having whet their appetite for aerial genocide in World War II, the West went on to even greater crimes against humanity, obliterating millions more in Korea, Vietnam, Cambodia, Laos, Serbia, with many more and now, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, Yemen and elsewhere (https://williamblum.org/chapters/rogue-state/united-states-bombings-of-other-countries and https://wikispooks.com/wiki/US/Bombing_campaigns_since_1945). The list is long. This does not even include hundreds of lethal civilian drone strikes, happening day after day.

No, it was not German and Japanese fascists who invented it, in spite of all the BLPM brainwash. Western total war (burn all, steal all, kill all – and we can add rape all) has been perfected since biblical times, where it is sanctioned and glorified in the Old Testament/Torah, and with advances in technology over the ages, is blood splattered across Eurangloland’s history books and daily headlines. Nobody does it better, with Anglo-Americans and Zionists being the champions.

Things to keep in mind...

Neo-Nazi ideology has become one of the main protagonists of political and social life in Ukraine since the 2014 coup d'état. Meanwhile, fascist ideology and blatant lies also permeate the consciousness of most people in the West. Those in the comfortable top 10%, the "PMCs" (Professional Managerial Class), are especially vulnerable. They support and disseminate such ideas. They are the executors of the actual ruling class' orders, those in the 0.001%, who remain largely invisible. The PMCs are the political class, the media whores, the top military brass, some people in academia, and the "national security/foreign policy" industry honchos. Push back against these unethical, contaminated people with the truth while you can.

Putin's Cabinet Shakeup Stumps Western Intelligentsia

As many had been suspecting for days, Putin initiated a major shakeup in his cabinet. The most notable was the removal of longtime defense minister Shoigu, to be replaced with a man many have not heard of: Andrey Belousov, an economist by trade and training.

Some considered this to be a deliberate misdirection by Putin, whom many expected to replace Shoigu with rising star Dyumin.

There are plenty of angles from which to cover this, but let’s take a few of the most important.

Firstly, was this a demotion or promotion for Shoigu? RYBAR, for one, calls it a promotion, given that his new position as Secretary of the Security Council is a quite prestigious one that silovik Patrushev—one of the Kremlin’s most powerful men—has held himself for nearly two decades:

Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu has been promoted - to the Security Council of the Russian Federation. It is not yet known where exactly Nikolai Patrushev will go. Perhaps, just as for Medvedev in his time, an additional position and a separate area that he will deal with will be invented for him. Or perhaps, Nikolai Platonovich has simply received a long-awaited retirement. What Shoigu's arrival will mean for the Security Council - an update and reshuffling (loyal Shoigu cadres will need to be brought in). At this stage, a certain almost caste system has developed in the structure of the Security Council, without the possibility of upward growth for individual employees. Perhaps, in the current conditions, this will mean a restructuring of the Security Council's work mechanism into a slightly different plane. Perhaps.

Others naturally believe this was a long-running coup against Shoigu and “his cadre”. Timur Ivanov’s recent arrest has been in the works for 5 years, as Russian prosecutors told us. They could have arrested him at any time, but chose to do so very symbolically not only before Putin’s re-election, but even literally on the same day he sat next to Shoigu on the defense council. While I don’t necessarily buy into any conspiracy theories prima facie, I do note that there is no such thing as coincidences in the great game of power politics.

For Timur Ivanov to have been linked as a close ally of Shoigu—who was the one that appointed him—was significant. There were even rumors that the ‘embezzling’ charge was a cover for much more serious espionage. Some even go as far as to hypothesize that the entire operation is one grand, long-running take down of the Shoigu clan, as this analyst writes:

Timur Ivanov is one of the people Prigozhin wanted Putin to get rid of. One of the resources close to the ''Wagner'' group just posted this:

''On behalf of PMC "Wagner" we would like to express our deep gratitude to the Chairman Investigative Committee of the Russian Federation to Alexander Ivanovich Bastrykin for the arrest of a state-level corrupt official, Deputy Minister of Defense Russian Federation Timur Ivanov. Thanks to the department you lead, the leakage of huge material resources from the state treasury, which are so necessary now to maintain the economic stability of the country at a time when there is enormous pressure from countries unfriendly to us, has been stopped. Over the many years of his corrupt activities, this official has caused colossal damage not only to our army, but also to the ordinary Russian people. We believe in the justice of the law and hope that this and other corrupt scoundrels will receive a well-deserved severe punishment to the fullest extent of the Criminal Law of the Russian Federation.''

Another theory along the conspiracy slant:

"Perhaps this is not a final arrangement. While the battle at the top continues. This is the first stage of the victory of the Kovalchuk clan. A brilliant operation was carried out to eliminate Shoigu. Obviously, he will fly further down. People from his entourage will be grabbed. He no longer has real power.

Shoigu represented the largest clan. Next in line, logically, are smaller fish, like the Rotenbergs. They either have to bend under the Kovalchuks or they will be devoured. And for one thing, people from their circle, such as Kolokoltsev. I think he won’t stay put for long and there will be changes at the Ministry of Internal Affairs for six months. With the FSB, I also think there may be a replacement within six months, this is also connected with the stages of internal struggle.”

Lastly, and most plausibly: “Tsargrad political commentator Andrey Perla is sure that by putting Belousov at the head of the Defense Ministry, Vladimir Putin wants to solve two tasks”:

The first is to nip in the bud all the arguments about the very possibility of corruption in the defense department.

The second is to divide the leadership of troops during combat operations and the organizational and economic support of the army and navy.

Perla wondered how much the agency would change Belousov, because, presumably, now a significant part of the staff is Shoigu's people.

But whatever the true reasons, one thing I personally do believe is that Russia—like many world countries—suffers from a creeping illness of gerontocracy, as the Soviet Union itself once did in its terminal stage. It’s likely not as bad as the U.S., but there are many old figures, Sovoks and the like, which should have been put out to pasture and retired long ago. Not necessarily due to any corruption, per se, but simply due to the lack of passion and vitality in improving the country.

I for one do subscribe to the importance of physiognomy, and one look at many of the eldest carryovers and perennial officials shows an at times aging, depleted-looking, uninspired lot. Shoigu is not that old himself, but lately has admittedly been looking the worse-for-wear, haggard and worn out. Belousov, at a spiffy 65, is virtually a spring chicken by global gerontocratic standards.

Looks and physiognomy can certainly be deceiving, but at first glance he looks sharp, apt, and clear-eyed. A demonstrative video making the rounds is meant to showcase his keen understanding and direct forthrightness in regard to Russian drone production and its inherent limitations:

 

Furthermore, it’s said he’s a severe technologist and drone tech enthusiast who will focus the Russian defense production on the needed directions. In the recent round table session with frontline commanders, you’ll recall that Putin specifically conveyed Russia’s intentions to concentrate on UGV ground bot development.

 

It’s no coincidence that the ‘drone guy’ is then suddenly hired for the job. Look for this appointment to be very bullish for Russian drone advancement.

Peskov further elaborated on the appointment with an extremely significant clarification:

 

Read the bolded portion of the summary below:

Dmitry Peskov’s full commentary on the reasons for the appointment of Andrei Belousov as Minister of Defense

❗️The budget of the Ministry of Defense and the security bloc was recently still around 3%, but recently it has grown to 6.7%. This is not a critical figure yet, but due to well-known geopolitical circumstances, we are gradually approaching the situation in the mid-80s, when the share of expenses for the security bloc in the economy was at the level of 7.4%.

❗️ It is very important to integrate the economy of the power bloc into the country’s economy. Write it down to fit the current moment. Today, the winner on the battlefield is the one who is open to innovation, more open to the most rapid implementation. Therefore, it is natural that at the current stage the president has decided that the Ministry of Defense should be headed by a civilian.

❗️ And this is not just a civilian, but a person who very successfully headed the Ministry of Economic Development, who for a long time was the assistant to the president on economic issues. And in the previous cabinet of ministers he was First Deputy Prime Minister.

❗️ The Ministry of Defense must be absolutely open to innovation, to introduce all advanced ideas.

As you can see, the appointment of Belousov is meant to streamline the economic integration of the defense industries and country’s general economy. An entire essay can be written on just what this one item alone means, precisely. Some have even interpreted it to mean some type of neo-liberal coup, as Belousov is said, by some, to be a “liberal” who was once assistant to German Gref of Sber bank, and will therefore “plunder” Russia’s economy by yoking the recently state-seized defense concerns back into the ‘private sector’—in essence, handing the keys to Russia’s future back to fat-cat weapons oligarchs.

We’ll have to wait and see, but I don’t think that’s what it means. This development can only be received positively as it shows Putin’s seriousness in tackling the issues of defense-economic integration and alleviation. I believe this will revolve around scaling of manufacturing processes and creating a more agile, flexible, and innovative defense sector by allowing private companies to integrate better with the developments currently being made by the ‘state owned’ industrial powerhouses. This is how it works in the U.S., and there are major advantages to fast developmental pipelines for new innovative designs.

While Russia has done very well in some sectors since the start of the SMO, in several others it has lagged very badly. For instance, the scaling and commercialization of personnel-based EW systems leaves much to be desired. Most of the systems on the ground are cheap Chinese knockoffs and requisitioned ad hoc, a process that is extremely stale and ineffective, causing the mass deaths of Russian servicemen to enemy drones. Something in this pipeline is in grave need of streamlining, which includes the “localization” that Belousov himself emphasized in the video above.

Some final thoughts on the appointment from another analyst:

Belousov's appointment promises a total audit of all financial flows of the Ministry of Defense. He is a fairly tough and effective manager known for his practical approach to business. He often had an unpopular point of view on the work of accountable structures, which is probably what the Ministry of Defense needs now.

And there’s always this, for the believers:

The new Russian minister of defense, Andrey Belousov, is a practicing Orthodox Christian. He has personally donated to & built a monastery in the Vladimir Oblast: “Russia must become the guardian of the traditions of Christian civilisation. The era of globalism is over.”

Acquaintances of Andrei Belousov told The Bell (foreign agent) that he periodically serves as an altar boy in one of the churches, presumably in the Vladimir region.

In general, I view it cautiously as a very positive development. I have been outspoken in the past about the fact that much of Russia’s military structure at the onset of the SMO was a rusty, sometimes decrepit and even corrupt, carryover from the past. Years of low intensity operation or no hostilities generally results in the buildup of laziness, useless generals who stuff their pockets or sit on positions they view as sinecures rather than meritoriously earning their keep.

All this gets cleaned out by virtue of necessity—and an existential conflict brings necessity like no other. Since the beginning, Putin has been slowly clearing out the calcified structures, upwardly promoting and mobilizing deserving men to replace the hangers-on from the dusty ages of long time past. This is a continual and unending process, but it has bore fruit and today we see its ongoing progression. The spring renewal of change and adaptation is a good thing.

 

As a last quick mention of the ongoing Kharkov offensive, we’ve now seen the official introduction of the northern group’s operative tactical symbol:

A comparison of current operation to the 2022 attempt of taking over Kharkhov region

2022: Russian troops advanced primarily along roads and had reached the borders of Kharkhov city in a few days. Main troops entered

2024: Russian troops are avoiding stretching lines and are moving through forests and fields in the border, still a DRG led operation

2022: The symbols V, O, Z (which coincidentally are Initials of Volodymyr Oleksandrovych Zelenskyy) started appearing a few days before the main attack started

2024: The new tactical symbol was only unveiled after the attack had started

2022: Russians due to advancing too quickly also became prey to ambushes, suffering losses higher than Ukrainians who were hiding

2024: Russians have deployed more drones and means to destroy incoming Ukrainian reinforcements, the losses can be equal or even higher for Ukrainians for now

At the same time, with weapons like FPV drones, and FABs, the fighting style is also different

While not as grand as 2022 attempt in terms of land grab, this is more sustainable for the RU army, and creates strategic dilemmas for Ukrainian command

In addition to the above, it’s now said that Russia is demining entire fields by setting them on fire and burning all the mines off:

And things continue moving apace, with Russian forces seizing more villages and now having entered the actual city of Volchansk, the largest stronghold of the northern region:

Many Ukrainian military-linked channels are in panic or disorder, now openly accusing Ukrainian leadership of not having built any defenses in the north. It’s clear that what began as a coping attempt to downplay the northern advance is now turning into an open debacle:

Ukrainian volunteers complain that the Nazi formations of the GUR ("Kraken", "Sonechko", "Brotherhood", etc.)* blocked the evacuation of the local population from Volchansk and are using city residents as human shields

Local residents made an agreement with the volunteers, but did not let anyone in or let anyone out of the city.

Judging by the news reports, fighting for the city has already begun. Take care of yourself, dear ones! — calls for Dill Fresh

The AFU is now scrambling to plug the holes by routing its most elite units to the north, with GUR spetsnaz and Kraken reportedly coming to the rescue. Unfortunately for them, several Kraken groups have already been captured by Russian forces. Their interviews below:

Captured militant of the "Brotherhood" battalion of the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Kyiv regime. This formation was created by the bastard Korczynski, who went to kill Russians back in Chechnya, as a member of UNA-UNSO he fought on the side of Duday's terrorists.

2nd Video:

A militant of the battalion ‘Brotherhood’, which is part of the GUR. One of these organisations similar to the RDK (the guy is from Krasnodar).

 

Starshe Edda fills in some details:

The second day after the start of the offensive of the North group of troops. The number of captured AFU has already exceeded 50, there is even one prisoner from the Kraken. It’s too early to estimate the enemy’s losses; there are probably 100 people lying on the strongholds, these are those whom the fleeing Ukrainian Armed Forces soldiers could not drag away. How many of the enemy were destroyed as a result of incessant artillery and air strikes is unclear at the moment, but it is obvious that there is a lot.

Strelechye, Gatishchi, Pylnaya, Borisovka, Pletenevka, Krasnoye, Ogurtsovo, as well as the adjacent forest regiments and enemy fortifications, are under our control; battles are taking place in the Glubokoe area, as well as on the outskirts of Volchansk. It is very important to note that our losses are minimal, Storm of the North acts very competently, Lancets, FPV crews, artillerymen, tankers pave the way for them, sweeping away the enemy’s fortifications and his armored vehicles.

AFU cannot show their ohlos anything (meaning show successes on the battlefield), so they record videos with representatives of the cock volunteer corps, in which they talk about our great losses. I hope that the fighters of the cock corps will stop pissing on the fences in Kharkov and will already come to the aid of the Ukrainians, where we will drive them away. The enemy takes out all his failures on the civilians of Belgorod, shelling residential areas. It is this problem that the steel Northerners are now solving, unwinding the enemy.

He makes an important note I’ve seen underscored by others: for once, this offensive has been marked by a specific emphasis on the fact that Russian forces are utilizing effective combined arms tactics, with several frontline reports making pains to note that artillery and drone utilization is good, communications are notably coordinated and running fluidly, etc. This is contrary to many other fronts like Kherson where complaints about coordination between those mentioned aspects abound. It seems whoever is running the ‘Northern Wind’, as some are calling it, is doing a very competent job thus far.

And of course, the credit should also go to the units themselves, for which the picture is becoming gradually clearer. I mentioned some of the units suspected to be involved last time, but now there are a few more notables being put forth:

Then there’s reportedly the 18th Guards Motor Rifle Division, as part of the 11th Army Corps from the Baltic Fleet troops I already mentioned last time, with the 79th Motor Rifle Regiment operating as part of the 18th division.

One of the only prevailing commonalities is most of the utilized units appear to be from the newly-formed ‘Leningrad Military District’.

This panicked screed by a Ukrainian 57th Brigade account even lists the now legendary ‘Storm-Z’ penal troops as participating, while also naming the Ukrainian 125th territorial defense troops as abandoning their positions in Volchansk to flee:

More panicked cris de coeur from Ukrainian troops on Volchansk front:

It was likewise already confirmed by other Ukrainian military accounts that the AFU was forced to withdraw much-needed units from the Avdeevka and Chasov Yar fronts to reinforce the worsening Kharkov direction:

The first consequences of the breakthrough of Russian troops into the Kharkov region. Military chronicles report that the Ukrainian Armed Forces withdrew part of the units of the 42nd Mechanized Infantry Brigade from the front near Chasov Yar and hastily transferred Troops to Volchansk, fearing further expansion of the bridgehead and the introduction of larger Forces of the Russian Armed Forces.

As well as Forbes:

The dilemma, for Ukrainian leaders, is that a feint can turn into an offensive with little notice—as long as the Russians can spare the forces from their operations in the east. “It is a shrewd approach, considering Ukraine's manpower constraints,” Finnish analyst Joni Askola wrote.

The Ukrainian military isn’t taking chances. Elements of several brigades, including the 59th Motorized Brigade and the 92nd Assault Brigade, are already in Vovchansk—or on the way. Notably, the 92nd Assault Brigade is bringing its best CV90 infantry fighting vehicles.

Ukrainian commander in chief Oleksandr Syrskyi insisted his troops would deploy and redeploy to match the Russians’ moves. “We are aware of the enemy's plans and can respond flexibly to all of his actions,” Syrskyi said.

Meanwhile, AFU sources themselves report that Russia only started off utilizing 7% of its regional forces, subsequently increasing it to 15%—which should give an idea of what’s yet to come:

Ukraine post: There is a lot of pressure on the boys. Deep is very difficult, Vovchansk is under control, but there are attempts to break through. The occupier is pulling more and more forces. If yesterday 7-8% of the total number of forces deployed in the operational area were involved, today it is up to 15%. A lot of enemy equipment was burned. But they will not stop until they are completely destroyed.

Here’s a visualization of the fights from one of the AFU units in the forests near Volchansk as they get shelled by Russian artillery:

 

Spokesman for Ukraine’s battlegroup Khortitsa, Nazar Voloshin, states Russia launched 22+ guided bombs on Volchansk today:

 

ISW also confirmed Russian advances and the AFU’s complaints:

There continue to be many other Russian advances on other fronts as well, but we can cover those next time.

Billy Bob's Blowback Roundtable
THE WORLD THROUGH AN INDEPENDENT LEFT LENS


Resize text-+=

 
Guest Mike Mihajlovic is a Serbian engineer and expert in military matters. He explains to the panel the realities of new artillery tools and AD batteries, such as the Patriot, plus new superior bombs and missiles developed by Russia, the use of drones, and how Ukraine could possibly protect itself from Russia's attacks when it is not just short of artillery and AD, but the qualified personnel to use these weapons to maximum effectiveness. Mihajlovic also notes that Russia is fighting at a fraction of its capability. Once it escalates to full war status, the defeat of Kiev will occur very quickly. The panel also examines the successful tactics used by Iran to defeat Israeli/Allied AD, something the Western public has not been properly informed about.
