  1. I would respectfully disagree with John’s assessment this week.

    A failed coup (Wagner) can be a successful op if it accomplishes objectives, such as destabilizing Russia internally, turning allies away, worsening perception of the regime, etc.

    A lost war (Afghanistan, Iraq) can be a successful op if it accomplishes objectives, such as destabilizing an entire region, putting it out of control of competitors, etc.

    There is a Slavic joke. A wizard offers to grant one wish to a peasant. The peasant, after some thought, says, “well, my neighbor has a chicken that lays a hundred eggs a day.” “So you want a chicken that can lay two hundred?” asks the wizard. “No, I just want his chicken to die” responds the peasant. My view is that, in essence, this is the strategy.

    A military victory in a classic sense is irrelevant. Chaos and destabilization is the aim here. You either outcompete or failing that, you destroy the competiton, and either way you get the market share. And, if that is the strategy, things are going very very well.

    Plan B is also easy to guess. Where did US weapons go to after WW2 / defeat of Japan? Korea, for the next act. I would assume that Korean equipment was later spun into SE Asia for the Vietnam War. I would also guess Ukraine Plan B is to shuttle the weapons to the Caucus region, to expand the conflict into Russias southern border.

    I would even go as far as to say that the multipolar world is fading and reverting to a unipolar world with some regional dissention.

    2. It does not seem Russia is even showing cracks of what you refer to, however I am not there. It seems more like the west is destabilizing and NATO is fracturing. But if we went by youtube and the current narrative Putin is loosing big time. Time will tell, maybe by fall. Where did the weapons go, maybe right here in the USA????? Time will tell that also.

      1. I would say the Wagner thing is a disaster for Russia. A mercenary group defied military orders, left the combat theater, and walked into a regional command center on rhe border. Maybe they even blew up some things or killed some compatriots in the process. After having a chat with the regional military commanders, the mercenary group was allowed to proceed into Russia proper, unopposed, and go who knows how far towards the capital before the mercenary group leader fled to another country. Putin maybe fled Moscow, maybe not, who knows. It’s the psychological effect of this incident which is a big problem for Russia, and a big win for the other side. Thats why it was, if it was, a successful op. What are regional oligarchs thinking now? Are people allied with Putin rethinking their options? What is the army going to do with those 8000+ mercenaries that arguably committed treason? Abroad, what are the Chinese, Iranians, Europeans, thinking? So these are the cracks, the effects of which will become evident later.

        I would also respectfully disagree that the NATO alliance is fracturing. In my view, it is stronger than it has been for many decades. Europe is, whether it wants to or not, now more dependent on the US than before. In my understanding, Europe has written off Russia as a commercial or political partner for the long term. Those Western corporations which left Russia last year, with all the assets still there, are not making 5 year plans for a return. EU has also allied itself with the US on China policies. I would say The EU perception of the US is better than since 9/11. NATO is expanding into Finland and Sweden after all. How can that be fracture?

        There are many fairy tales out there as you point out, and in any war the business of disinformation is a natural product. No way can Ukraine ever defeat Russia and regain their lands. But does that matter? What if the conflict is more valuable than the victory? I guess that is my main point.

        There are two general narratives, either Russia is collapsing and Putin is losing OR the enemy is strong and we need more money for weapons. Which is kind of the same narrative about China. Either China is collapsing economically, politically, demographically, OR it is strong and we need more money for weapons. Which, if you think about it, cannot both be true at the same time. Its like marketing for the military industrial complex. Besides this, there is no real reporting besides what you can glean from the news and maybe anecdotal info from real people on the ground. So yea, who knows the real situation. We are just speculating to the best of our abilities.

        My question is, as Catherine mentioned, which side can sustain this conflict longer. I would love to know why Catherine thinks the US has no chance to keep this going in the long term. Isn’t this great business for the American military industrial complex?

  2. New study shows that Wim Hof Method practice lowers pain perception14 June, 2023

    ************************

    Three friends have invested in the grounding mat from Earthing.com with great results. My friend with violin elbow and a serious hip pain is now great. No pain. She canceled her physical therapy sessions. Another, with serious pain is much improved. A third has stopped snoring all together. He sleeps so soundly and his breathing is so quiet that one wonders if he is still alive, haha!

    https://www.earthing.com/collections/all/products/earthing-elite-sleep-mat

    1. I got no results from earthing.com and had a uncomfortable interaction with the founder so I do not use. I do think grounding – walking on the earth – gets great results.

      1. That is too bad. I agree on the “real” grounding… walking on the earth.

      2. One point: the snoring person is my spouse. I did a blind test on him. I put the mat on the bed for 2 weeks before I told him it was there. He totally stopped snoring. He had been snoring so loudly that I could not sleep. I would nudge him when he snored, he’d stop for a few seconds then start up again. I would give up and just listen to the motor going. I had no expectation that this mat would help.
        Of course this is a sample size of 1.

  3. I was able to get Solari’s login to pop up once again when using Brave by toggling the “Shields are UP” switch to “Shields are DOWN” after clicking the Brave Lion icon located on the right side of the URL address bar. https://brave.com/shields/

      1. At first I was having Brave problems, but now I click on the log in in the middle not the one up in the right corner. So far it is working every time. The upper one usually don’t. Clueless why it makes a difference.

  4. I think there is an analogy between production of placebo vaccines and inflating the currency. What is inflated currency but a substitute that appears the same as the genuine article, but performs hidden functions? If you want Operation Warp Speed to look successful, nothing’s faster than adding saline solution to little bottles and have them go out into the marketplace. (You might even throw in some theater on I-79 in West Virginia when one of the transports crashes.) The next effect is that adverse side effects look small in comparison to total vaccines administered, which is a desirable initial effect. In reality most of the eventually injured people did not actually get a vaccine on the first go around. The secondary jab (and further on) are the kill shots for those who insist on following the bad advice of the government. I don’t know if there are any discounts for ersatz vaccines, but who knows, when we are principally interested in defalcation of government funds.

    Your Ukraine expert has some interesting thoughts on the Prigosian episode. I have little doubt that the perfidious CIA was probably tampering, which in wartime would be perfectly legitimate, but this is not a legitimate war in the first place. Like everything else with this misbegotten Ukrainian Genocide, it is a failure in the highest degree.

    It cannot be overemphasized how bad Biden, his family and his Congress have been, and there should be considerable prosecution and imprisonment of those responsible, regardless of eminence or position.

  5. Catherine and John, suggestion. Dig into they ie Mr Global tell us what they are going to do before they do it. As best I can tell this is related to esoteric……rules and that may not be the right word. As Gates said in 2010 2011 in his Ted talk. “if we do a really good job on vaccines we can reduce the population by 10 to 15 percent. And as we know they have been prepping for the next magic V etc.

  6. Another jam packed full of great info. As Catherine and John say over and over they are not done with us yet. Suggest all know what your Vit D level see vid by Dr Paul Mason MD on ideal D level, it is so important, research read on how powerful our gut is for our immune sys and consider drinking milk kefir every day, Dr McBride MD 84% of our immune sys is in the gut. A few more things to consider in this category, stock up on Ivermectin, Oregano Oil, and food grade H2O2. Thank you Miss Catherin and Mr John keep shining your lights. Every day it becomes more and more important for us all to shine.
