Glen: It’s become frighteningly apparent over the course of the SMO, that western ‘leaders’, Media, NGOs, Think-tanks, have lost all fear of nuclear war.

Perhaps some people believe that bunkers will save them?

Thats what the Hamas scumbags thought when they dug their tunnels in Gaza with the billions we gave them in aid. Retilian Muslim snakes are like that, they live in tunnels while the women and children serve as cannon fodder above ground and as an excuse to blame Israel.

Stupid is as stupid does.

You’d go a long way today to find another bunch of psychopathic narcissists as stupid as NATO.

- Rubbish. I think there somehow will be a (strong) russian retaliation in the Ukraine. Not in a NATO country. And then hopefully the West will come to it senses. No one wants a nuclear war or WW III right now.

- Western leaders also should show their capability to be restrained and step

- Right now, the West is hijacked by a bunch of war mongers (predominantly in the US). Remember the word Obama used ("the blob") ? I know that Obama wanted to reduce military spending but he didn't know how to do it.

That's a bit of a contradiction, isn't it? Have you really thought this through? 🤡

Strong Russian response = more escalation from the West towards nuclear war/WW III. 🙄

- I think the strong russian response will be somewhere in the Ukraine and strong enough to send a message to "the West". The russian response won't be an attack on a NATO because of article 5 (remember ??). But one or more full blown attacks on e.g. NATO "military support bases" in e.g. western Ukraine and/or on the capitol called Kiev.

- Trump wants the Ukraine war to stop but he is an old man (78 years) and has shown to be clueless in many occasions.

The west seems incapable of receiving these signals, maybe because they want war?

As far as I can see, no one wants a war on the scale of WW I or WW II. Not even Russia or the US.

1) Agreed, there won't be an attack on NATO countries due to Art. 5. BUT, there have already been many "strong responses" in Ukraine, and it changed....NOTHING. Oreshniks? Seeing is believing, I I'm 50%/50% divided about whether they actually worked or not.

2) Yes, again, I agree. Trump is a useless old narcissistic and clueless fart, but most of all he is a TWO-FACED liar with his "this is Biden's war." Most people (incl. Glenn Diesen) seem to have 'forgotten' of Trump's role during his first Admin of how Trump HELPED arm Ukraine, how Trump moved US troops to Poland and Romania, how Trump INCREASE the sanctions, how Trump withdrew from the INF Treaty etc.

Trump doesn't give a sh!t about "peace." Trump merely wants to outsource the Ukrainian Project to the European vassals, so that the US can use the freed up capacity against Iran and China.

Sadly, even Trump can't control the PENTAGON.

Trump doesn’t even TRY to control the Pentagon. Why do you think he hired clowns like Hegseth, Walz, Kellogg, Gorka, and Rubio? 🙄

- Or Russia is going to ratchet up tensions in the Baltic Sea in the next few weeks. Or sabotage a few things in the Baltic Sea. Or more russian "naval actions" in the Black Sea. Still LOTS of possibilites available without the need starting WW III or using nuclear weapons.

- There's is another reason why WW III is unlikely to happen. Waging war, both for NATO and Russia, on a WW I or WW II scale has simply too costly. Even for Russia right now.

- However, I wouldn't be surprised to see Russia to "retake" the Baltic states (again) but that requires the demise of NATO (coming sooner than many people think). Again, think "Article 5".

Russia doesnt give a shit about the Baltic states or Polish-Lithuanian West Ukraine. They just want NATO out of Ukraine.

The 3 Baltic States are members of NATO and each state has multiple foreign military bases and each has a US base. Estonia is only say 200 kilometers away from St. Petersburg the second largest russian city. No wonder, Russia is more than a bit concerned about NATO presence in the Baltic States.

Meanwhile it seems that the only option to make an impression of a victory for NATO in Ukraine is to somehow assassinate Putin or some high political profiled Russian person.

The war on the battlefield is lost for NATO and Ukraine but they can still spin some media victory propaganda by taking down Russian leaders and cult figures like Putin and celebrating it like they did with Saddam Hussain, Bin Laden, Gaddafi and Hitler.

I think the Russians have already understood this and know that CIA and MI6 are currently working together to make this happen.

But the evil forces from the west will not succeed because Putin have seen their evil side and know how to avoid it.

On the other hand if they God forbid should succeed it will most likely initiate a nuclear war in Europe because Medvedev will not hesitate to use nuclear weapons if this happens. I hope CIA and MI6 know this before they do anything more seriously stupid things like attacking Russian bombers.

Recently, German-dominated Hollywood celebrated the father of the atomic bomb, Oppenheimer. Always the same scenario, Japan blames Russia, the Americans arm them to the hilt, and then stab them in the back. Will they ever learn that Russia doesn't care about territory; they have enough of their own.

Here we go again. What a 'surprise' that Trump turns out to be yet another neocon in bed with the MIC... It's not as if there were any obvious clues from his previous (2017-2021) Administration, were there? 🙄

p.s. I'm no geopolitical analyst nor have I studied IR or political science, but how come I could see this coming from MILES away? 😃

I admit, my writing skills are not very good (again, thankfully I'm not an academic, because this keeps me openminded), but anyone who would have spent a few minutes reading my stuff should not be surprised that the US under Trump will not be any better than under Biden.

German-American military complex. Let's not forget Trump's German origins. He also loves Slavic beauties like Melania. It's like an all-new episode of I Dream of Jeannie.

Germany invented NATO to try out its new tanks and drone toys on its forever imaginary enemy Russia. They don't care about the people on the ground, just like Hamas doesn't care about the women and children on the ground in Gaza. Men are selfish egomaniacs who absolutely want to dominate. Egotism even makes blond bimbo Ukrainians suicidal if you flatter them enough.

And give that part of Ukraine to its rightful owners, Poland and Lithuania. It's a Slavic family feud. The sluts in Kiev sucked Hunter Biden's dick and took the money. Zelenzky is a pimp selling of all the blond bimbos to the West and exterminating all the men.
