Hamas is ready to reach a full peace agreement provided Israel stops the war in Gaza.

Don't hold your breath.

Moves afoot to remove Netanyahu:

Gantz's party is looking to push a bill through to end the current Israeli Knesset, which if successful would lead to the declaration of new elections.

But but China:

US trade deficit in goods widened by 7.7% to $99.4bn in April, the largest deficit in 2 years.

The Fed is facing their worst outcome.

It's hardly news, but stagflation continues to dominate left, right and centre.

It's the worst possible outcome for them given it feeds inflation and indicates economic stagnation and worse.

Rocks and hard places spring to mind.

More old news being portrayed as an escalation.

After all French instructors have perished in Ukraine for almost a decade and more so since Feb 2022:

Recall after Fed 24th 2022 when Russia killed hundreds of such instructors in a strike on a building in West Ukraine:

Very interesting:

Kremlin:

NATO is encouraging Ukraine to pointlessly continue war and have escalated tensions around Ukraine.

Such an escalation will have consequences for the interests of the countries stirring tension.

Note the use of the word, interests of those countries

Von Der Leyen admitting that the West is losing the information propaganda war:

Bunking in whatever form Ursula or anyone else seeks to enforce is only going to accelerate the collapse of the Western narrative as reality crushes their illusion.

They have become so consumed by

The US is still struggling to come to terms with the fact that West Asian nations will seek to cooperate with both China, Russia and the US and will refuse to take sides.

It is also a common feature on this platform, when those indoctrinated by the zero sum game mentality,

That has been the case since the start of the SMO. Why does this appear to be an escalation to so many?

Everything that Ukraine is utilising to fight Russia is a NATO weapon.

Frankly trying to shut the stable door after this horse has long since bolted is pointless.

The idea

Who could have imagined this was the case?

Go and visit Xinjiang and see reality for yourself.

As ever be informed, not brainwashed.

The level of stupidity within the ranks of NATO nations knows no bounds.

When you hear statements like Russia might be able to attack a NATO country within 5 years you begin to appreciate just how divorced from reality the West is.

Russia could annihilate all of Europe within

People still believe the West wants a war with Russia.

Stop being entertained by grifters and ignoramuses:

NATO countries are currently able to provide less than 5% of necessary air defence capacities to protect NATO members in central and eastern Europe against a full-scale

A refreshingly honest assessment of Ukraine and broader US foreign policy. Always have alot of time for Sachs perspective.

Was a little surprised that Sachs didn't understand the reasoning behind the desire to remove Gaddafi and Assad.

Also interesting that he never mentioned

It seems Russia may have finally realised that the Ukraine war is also existential for the West.

The fact it has been the US's goal to crush Russia, economically and financially and seek Putin to be removed as leader should have indicated to Moscow that this was indeed the case.

No one has really thought through how the Ukraine war ends in lasting peace.

You can carve the nation up however you like but whatever is left of Ukraine will have to abide by Ukraine neutrality and never join NATO with other security guarantees, from Russia's perspective. How

Rules based order:

Meaning if you prevent the US meddling in your country via these thousands of NGOs who until now have had free reign to interfere precisely how we see fit, we will take measures to ensure we can continue to meddle in your country and ensure we are free to

The fact the US effectively has little interest in this Ukrainian peace summit in Switzerland suggests the US is going through the motions of looking to wipe their hands of the debacle they created and is seeking to move on.
