“They’ve convinced the public through propaganda to believe that a sore throat, achy joints, and fatigue are completely unacceptable.

Well, the woodchucks are rather annoying so I am fencing it all up to avoid the food dearth apocalypse! Otherwise, no apocalypse in my backyard, lots and lots of food to eat despite the fascists and their bug factories.
Re the "Trainloads of Armour..." story on the Hal Turner Radio show, which speculates:
"The conquest of the complete rest of Ukraine will be a simple task for Russia at that point but here's the rub:
What Russia will "conquer" will be a rump welfare state. A failed land area, incapable of supporting itself. The whole thing will have to be reconstructed and that will be a gigantic financial burden upon Russia, not to mention the saboteurs, terrorists, and troublemakers that the west will undoubtedly utilize to make things all that much harder for Russia. The "war" will be over. Russia will have won. But the victory will be made as sour as possible by the West."
This requires an assumption about what territory it seeks to claim. Just because it may keep pushing the front as go into Odessa does not mean, at all, that Russia will keep more than it wants or can handle.
As per Mearsheimer and Cohen's seemingly correct predictions that are over 8 years old, one of the objectives is the sacking/wrecking of Ukraine to make it economically and militarily unattractive to the EU and NATO, and in both respects, that is being achieved. The Crimean landbridge, DPR and LPR were the primary stated objectives. If Odessa is added to that, so be it. Nothing says Russia has to try to hold more than that. It could just pull back and leave the smoking remains for Ukraine's "allies" to deal with, or it could tactically reconstruct.
As for how Russia funds any reconstruction of DPR, LPR and other territory it takes, this has been obvious from the start. DPR is sitting on 1 trillion cubic metres of frackable gas. What's the price of gas these days? And the demand levels? If only that bit of Ukraine had one or more deep water ports to ship LNG from, and/or access to a pipeline network...
The irony of this is that Ukraine as a whole nation could have accessed that gas and benefitted from it, but the ruling elite didn't want to get at it in an acceptable way and now Russia has all that gas.
Once again, totally blown away by your compendium. Roar, Lioness, Roar!
