Thought of the day. This group of "think tank dudes", "general officers" and "foreign policy hawks" couldn't beat goat herders and you think this is gonna be clean & easy?

 The title says it all.

The think tank dudes, general officers and foreign policy hawks are all running this war in Ukraine using Zelensky as the face of this clown show.

Real question.

How many times did you hear someone in "authority" say that one more battle in shit hole ass village will be the turning point of the war?

How many times did you hear that "we just have to finish the job"?

The same people are telling you not to worry about this thing.  The same people that are telling you that they have something as unpredictable as combat under control are the same ones that fed us all bullshit for 20 years.

All I can do is put it on your plate.

If you decide to believe the same lies that have bandied about before that's on you.

They just made it official. Biden rescinds law on spying on Americans...

Well I guess the time for pretense is over. They're about to go full gestapo on our ass.

Holy cow what a Friday news dump

Joe Biden just rescinded executive branch rules that prevent spying on American citizens https://t.co/ZiTIaMeVAY

Ukrainians are carrying out cross border strikes inside Russia?

 Thanks to Gen Armchair for the heads up!

via The Drive

Ukrainian suicide drone exploded at a Russian airbase destroying two bombers, two Ukrainian intelligence sources tell The War Zone.

The attack took place at the Shaykovka Air Base in the Kaluga Oblast, about 140 miles north of the Ukrainian border and about 170 miles southwest of Moscow.

The base is home to Russian Tu-22M Backfire bombers from the 52nd Heavy Bomber Aviation Regiment.

“Two bombers are not recoverable,” one source tells The War Zone.

An earlier report by the Ukrainian LB.ua news outlet notes that an “explosion occurred on the territory of the Shaykovka military airfield in the Kaluga region as a result of a kamikaze drone attack.”

LB.ua cited the oblast’s governor, Vladyslav Shapsha, as saying the drone “arrived from the border” of Ukraine.

I don't know if the Ukrainians are on or off script with this.

What I do know is regardless, this little piss ant, corrupt, backwards nation...led by a puffed up little comedian is about to drag us into a wider war.

Its well past time for the memes to stop and clear thinking come to the fore.

We have approached the point where this shit will spiral out of control and the madness that's gone on before will look like child's play.

Biden just gave the "things are gonna get bad but I'm working on it" speech...

Wow.

I was under the impression that this pain would be largely limited to the Europeans.

I was wrong.

This is the "shit is gonna get bad" speech.

Buckle up boys and girls.  IF and that's a big if, they can land this plane then its gonna be a hard ---- carrier aviation type ----controlled crash!

These Are The Best Warriors Who Ever Lived

Navy working hard on "at sea" vertical replenishment

 The U.S. Navy is scheduled to demonstrate re-arming the vertical launch system aboard Arleigh Burke-class destroyer USS Spruance (DDG 111) at Naval Air Station North Island and in the San Diego Harbor from Oct. 4 – 7.

This will be the first time the Navy has tested VLS reloading from an offshore support vessel platform, using Military Sealift Command fleet experimentation ship MV Ocean Valor.

The demonstration is being conducted to provide proof of concept that an offshore support vessel can reload the weapons system pierside and while the ship is at sea, with a goal of expanding the capability of VLS reloading in expeditionary environments.

The launch system re-load has been tested previously, in 2016 and 2019, using other Military Sealift Command platforms.

Spruance, named for Adm. Raymond A. Spruance, who commanded U.S. forces at the Battle of Midway, is homeported in San Diego. The ship returned to the Naval Base San Diego in August following a seven-month deployment with Carrier Strike Group 3 to the U.S. 3rd and 7th Fleets. Spruance was also one of 38 ships from 26 partner nations who took part in Exercise Rim of the Pacific 2022 in the Hawaiian Islands Operating Area from June to August.

Built in 2002, MV Ocean Valor is an MSC-contracted vessel that supports logistics experimentation for fuel, stores, passengers and ordnance delivery.

The demonstration will not include live ordnance and there is no danger posed to the residents of San Diego, the harbor or sea life.

An integral part of U.S. Pacific Fleet, U.S. 3rd Fleet leads naval forces in the Indo-Pacific and provides the realistic, relevant training necessary to flawlessly execute our Navy’s role across the full spectrum of military operations—from combat operations to humanitarian assistance and disaster relief. U.S. 3rd Fleet works together with our allies and partners to advance freedom of navigation, the rule of law, and other principles that underpin security for the Indo-Pacific region.

Biden offers stark ‘Armageddon’ warning on the dangers of Putin’s nuclear threats

 via CNN

 President Joe Biden on Thursday delivered a stark warning about the dangers behind Russian President Vladimir Putin’s nuclear threats as Moscow continues to face military setbacks in Ukraine.

“First time since the Cuban missile crisis, we have a direct threat of the use (of a) nuclear weapon if in fact things continue down the path they are going,” Biden warned during remarks at a Democratic fundraiser in New York where he was introduced by James Murdoch, the youngest son of media mogul Rupert Murdoch, according to the pool report.

He added: “I don’t think there’s any such thing as the ability to easily (use) a tactical nuclear weapon and not end up with Armageddon.”

Here 

Wow. TOLD YA SO!

Many of you freaks that comment on my page don't seem to like open source info, but this risk was posted at least a week ago (even though many tried to downplay it!!!)

THE FUCKING CIA, MI6 and others use OPEN SOURCE!!!!

Its out there for all to see.  The problem (for many of you) is that you have to try and pull the pieces together YOURSELF!

You can wait for others to think for ya, but preferably you do it YOURSELF!

The media has one job.  To either stir the passion of the masses, to get you to bite on a certain cause or to keep you calm while the world is falling around your ears (all of the above while you're getting robbed blind).

For a bunch of so called military guys how can you not know the basics of Russian doctrine?

Escalating to de-escalate is 101 shit they teach even at SOI!  I mean its on a more basic level but you attack in order to perform an orderly retreat etc....?

So thinking that the Russians would use tactical nuclear weapons in order to stabilize the battlefield is NOT OUTSIDE THE REALM OF POSSIBILITIES!!!

Another thing is that you have to get inside the mind of your enemy or at least attempt to anticipate his actions.

From Russia's seat they're fighting NATO and have been since a few weeks after the start of the war.

Do you NOT believe that Ukraine would have collapsed if not for the massive aid being pushed?

From the Russians view they've engaged NATO, their foreign minister has said that we've crossed line of pushing so much aid as to be considered a combatant and you think that they won't use tactical nukes?

Some of you live in fantasy land.  Time to wake up and face reality!

Resolute Dragon 22: MLRS Bilateral Demonstration

UN worried about a global recession?

JUST IN - United Nations calls on the U.S. Federal Reserve and other central banks to halt interest rate increases.

Central banks risk pushing the global economy into recession, a UN agency said Monday.

— Disclose.tv (@disclosetv) October 3, 2022

The UN is always behind the power curve. 

A global recession is all but guaranteed! 

If the central banks don't tame that monster we're all gonna need wheelbarrows of money....the new threat is hyper inflation (which is terrible) or stagflation (which is just as bad). The global economy is screwed and most aren't even paying attention.

We might be on the verge of a revolution in Iran...

Keep an eye on this folks. Don't have good visibility but the little snippets I am seeing indicate that something big might be brewing. We could see some type of military action to refocus the masses there. Oh and if you don't care you will. A spasm by the Iranian govt to refocus their citizens would probably cause oil to spike leading to extreme pain at the pump. 

War is politics by another name? 

Naw bro. That's old skool. 

War is economics now!

A girls' school in Iran brought a member of the IRGC-run Basij paramilitary to speak to students. The girls welcomed the speaker by taking off their headscarves & chanting "get lost, Basiji".

Teenage girls have been at the forefront of protests for days.pic.twitter.com/kvskgB8qas
