Is the West prepared for what’s to come when Putin finally hardens his heart?
From what we’ve seen so far, Russia doesn’t really respond to provocations. I expect they may do some high level assassinations in Ukraine to make a point, but otherwise I predict that they’re just going to keep methodically grinding down Ukrainian army until it collapses. I do think that any chance of negotiations with the current regime are gone now though.
I think this is exactly the plan. Biden needs Europe to be at war to trigger a mass exodus of (mostly) white Europeans fleeing war and poverty to America to make the dream of the Fourth Reich possible. The purging of Chinese students, academics and immigrants cannot possibly be done without them being replaced by another group of immigrants at the same time.
I mean no offense to the people who think that Trump is someone who can turn America into a full-blown white supremacist state, but they’re dead wrong. Without the ruthlessness of Biden, Trump could never get it off the ground in a million years.

This. If Republicans tried to do it the opposition from the population would be too much. It takes a Democrat administration to get the masses to consent to fascism. Democrats are experts at demobilizing popular resistance movements.
The news is saying ISIS. No one’s buying it.
Isis is an American/ Israeli asset and no this isn’t just theory:
You mean the Russian news or western news? Wouldn’t Russian news just say it is Ukraine? (And wouldn’t it almost certainly be related to the Ukraine war?)
Various propagandists have already blamed Ukraine, before the cops even cleared the building and did a body count nevermind apprehending any suspects. Sickening stuff tbh
If it’s Ukraine and it probably is, I hope Russia doesn’t hold back in the upcoming days, NOT ONE A BIT…
I also hope it helps destroy America’s favorite little ethnofascist state in the ME. But no hope there, Putin is actually very timid compared to his image in the west.
actually very timid
While I despise the Nazis in Ukraine, and I don’t want to flatter Putin, I’m personally hoping his unwillingness to fight wars like the US does at the very least comes from some place of being rational and not criminally insane. Wars shouldn’t play out like the Iraq war.
What lesson would that send to the west then other than to up the terror campaign and violence? Why does the west always get to up the ante and escalate? Why should other people always be the sane ones whereas the west always gets to do whatever it likes with the threat of greater violence looming over people’s heads? I don’t want Ukrainians to suffer, but at least just give Syria/ Lebanon some s300s, or send an aid convoy to Gaza to call Israel’s bluff. There should be consequences to mass murdering people.
This makes me so mad. Seeing the venue completely engulved in flames is also crazy. Don’t want to give a definite answer for who it was, but this seems eloborate enough to be a NATO operation.
If Ukraine had anything to do with this, Russia will exact it’s revenge, and it will not be pretty for anyone
Medvedev already made a statement that if it was Ukraine then Russia will start eliminating their senior leadership.
I feel like if they had the capability of doing so they would’ve already done so…
I don’t think so because eliminating them wouldn’t actually solve anything since the actual decision making centres are in the west. The puppet regime in Ukraine is also deeply incompetent and generally hated by the public. So, it made sense to just let the clown show go on until now.
enemy senior leadership are sometimes needed to be alive, when you have a trusted enemy leader, it’ll be easier to have him surrender and most of his population and soldiers will stop the attacks, but when you assassinate the leader it’ll create smaller factions and less trust in the newer ones and it will be a nightmare to make a peace agreement because the leader that was put in place after the assassination doesn’t control shit.
