Kissinger outlines Ukraine peace proposal
Elder US statesman invoked the missed opportunity to negotiate an end to WWI in 1916
Urgently negotiating an end to hostilities in Ukraine would prevent another world war, former US secretary of state Henry Kissinger argued in an essay published on Friday. The 99-year-old statesman noted that, in 1916, the US government had the chance to end the First World War through diplomacy, but missed it for reasons of domestic politics.
Kissinger laid out his reasoning in the December 17 issue of The Spectator, describing the current conflict as a “war in which two nuclear powers contest a conventionally armed country,” a clear reference to Ukraine being a proxy war between the US and Russia.
Time for Ukraine talks ‘not right now’ – White House
Washington’s job is to continue supplying Kiev, says National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan
It is not yet time for Ukraine to negotiate with Russia, US National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan argued in an interview on Friday. His comment came after Henry Kissinger – who held the same post in the early 1970s – said talks should happen sooner rather than later.
“We don’t know where this is going to end up,” Sullivan said of the conflict, speaking at the Carnegie Endowment think tank in Washington.

Russian President Vladimir Putin has sat down with the country’s top military commanders to discuss the Ukraine conflict, the Kremlin revealed on Saturday. The agenda revolved around Moscow’s actions in the short and medium term.

Why I Think the War in Ukraine Will Escalate
If we follow the breadcrumb trail, eventually, it leads us to a destination. In this case, that destination is a conclusion. Here are the breadcrumbs of the Ukrainian war. Come to your own conclusion.
Increased buildup of forces on all sides
For starters, we’re seeing a lot of buildup of even more NATO weapons and troops throughout Europe.
Take the US Patriot missiles that have begun to pop up all over Europe. Why were those missiles placed there in the first place? For preparation of the battlefield. Why would this action occur unless it was thought to be a wise precaution?
Serbia Seeks Troop Deployment In Kosovo, Informs NATO
Serbia has formally asked NATO if it can deploy up to 1,000 troops into northern Kosovo, where Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic says ethnic Serbs are being "terrorized" by the Kosovo government based in Pristina.
Vucic made the request to the commander of NATO forces in Kosovo, known as KFOR. Serbian officials say that a UN resolution that formally ended the Kosovo war allows for the deployment of up to 1,000 Serbian troops into Kosovo, but Vucic still doesn’t expect the request to be granted.

The state broadcaster’s unnamed source said the “Goldman Sachs dashboard” examination of the conflict would look at how Ukraine has been using the military supplies provided by the UK.

Japan’s Major Turning Point on Defense Policy

Japan has marked a critical milestone in efforts to reshape its defense strategy, increase the national defense spending, and allow Tokyo to acquire a counterstrike missile capability.
On December 16, Japanese Prime Minister Kishida Fumio’s cabinet approved the nation’s three key security documents, which will mark a major turning point in Japan’s post-war policy of maintaining an exclusively defense-oriented policy if realized.
Oil Exports From Key Russian Port Cut In Half As Price Cap Kicks In
The market may have been too quick to dismiss the impact of European oil price cap on Russian oil.
Assuming that the latest G-7 attempt to limit Russian oil revenues were one big nothingburger - after all, the US itself admitted that the goal of the price cap was not so much to cripple Putin's Treasury as to maintain a more stable flow of oil - the market quickly ignored the potential of lower Russian output as it continued to sell oil into year end amid fears there won't be enough demand to offset stable supply.

German hospitals warn of medication shortages
Amid shortages of medications in German pharmacies, the country's hospital federation says healthcare facilities are also affected. Politicians are mulling ramping up domestic production, even if it costs more.
Medical professionals in Germany warned on Friday that delivery problems have led to a shortage of important medications and called for production to be brought back to Germany.

New York BANS Pet Sales as Part of WEF Agenda To End Pet Ownership
New York has banned the sale of pets as part of a globalist plan to eliminate pet ownership in America.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul signed Senate Bill S1130/Assembly Bill A4283 into law on Thursday. The legislation will prohibit pet stores from selling dogs, cats and rabbits from 2024 onwards.
The move comes just days after the World Economic Forum declared that millions of cats and dogs should be slaughtered in an effort to reduce the “carbon pawprint” they produce as a result of eating meat.
“Christian Artist” Amy Grant to host “Same Sex” Wedding

SICK! Drag queen teaches young girl to twerk while shaking his nearly naked butt in front of children at “all-ages” drag show
(Natural News) At an “all ages” drag show in New York City, white liberal parents proudly took their young children to see a half-naked man sharing his bare butt in their faces. As an overweight man in a thong awkwardly lept around on a small stage, he somehow gathered a massive crowd, many of whom were children.
(Article by Amber Crawford republished from 100PercentFedUp.com)
There are many things that are baffling about this event, the first of which is why a parent would think this is appropriate to bring a child to. When did a man without pants on who’s shaking his rear end in your face become a “family-friendly” activity?
I love what you do for us; thanks. Wouldn't it be great if most of the news were about more good than bad things?
Not even that German Alsatian vegan, pro regenerative and organic farming dog lover would go so far as to slaughter the pets. I guess these 4th Reichers think they can go even further than just untermensche und useless eater reductions, as the global public has become so compliant en masse - they’ve taken their modern jab version of showers for the greater good.
Now here’s a fun factoid. The British government asked the public to euthanize their pets for the war effort. And of course many compliantly did so (uhm one wonders if the super rats were thrilled at this war effort). They were also asked to pull up their metal railings to make weapons. They complied again. Even though this too was an empty gesture as railings are made of the wrong steel.
Stupid is as stupid does? Well I guess then that the majority of the human race is stupid then.
