I still can't find anything that is important enough to write about. Mainly because nothing much has changed. The direction of progress remains the same. So the message for today is still what it has been since February 24, 2022 (and I wish I had thought of that earlier). Everything is going right for Russia... Continue Reading →
Pull Up An Inflection Point And Sit Down
I have no idea where this is going to go. There has been no pre-planning for this post. Well, actually there is little pre-planning for any of my posts. I get an idea, or I read something, which I feel might be beneficial for people to know and/or for me to express my thoughts. I... Continue Reading →
China Takes It To A New Level With US
'China demands US to cancel arms deal with Taiwan' - NewsFront I wish that were so, but it seems to be only non-Chinese media rhetoric at this stage. As far as I know, China has only issued 'urges' and 'strong calls' from both Foreign Affairs and the National Defence ministries but no 'demands' - at... Continue Reading →
Dry Wit on the Dry Run
Found earlier; couldn't resist. We come into the world with nothing, and with nothing are destined to leave. 'Dry' wit on the 'dry run'
Today Is Not About The West, Today Is Primarily About Eurasia

I repeat it is not a war. A... Continue Reading →
The “Grain Deal”: Russia Is No Dupe
A major focus of the west at the moment and therefore (through its control of world press) propagandised to be a major focus of the wider world, is the so-called 'food crisis', again supposedly put down to the conflict in Ukraine and blamed on Russia as being culpable for the fate of a starving world....

There’s ‘Self-Inflicted Pain’ and then there’s ‘The Application of the Pain Dial’
It's always a pleasure for a global realist (I think that is what I am, though the idea is entirely self-applied and I rarely leave my global headquarters [my home] and the comfort of my throne [computer chair]) to read anything written by that true global realist, Pepe Escobar. This is his latest, and it... Continue Reading →
Isn’t It Enough Simply To Be Correct?
Andrei Martyanov is a lout. And his loutishness is becoming more odourously vociferous as time goes by. Take this, his latest blog post, as an example - if you can bear to read it... 'RT Produced Yet Another MGIMO Graduate Attempting "Analysis".' - Martyanov blog The problem is, that he is mostly correct in his... Continue Reading →
