POTUS OJ Threatens Sanctions Against Russia...

[ProfD]

POTUS OJ has gone from claiming he could end Russia-Ukraine war on his 1st day in office to insulting President Zelensky to being strung a long by President Putin.

 

A couple weeks ago, POTUS OJ gave Putin 50 days to cease-fire. Russia kicked up attacks on Ukraine. Killed more people. 

 

POTUS OJ reduced cease-fire down to 10 days. Putin still taking shots. Killling more people. 

 

POTUS OJ threatened that if Russia didn't cease-fire today (Aug 8th), sanctions would be levied against countries that buy oil from Russia. 

 

Wait a minute...

 

Iran got the worst end of Operation Midnight Hammer which consisted of 14 bunker busting bomb damaging 3 Iranian nuclear facilities. 

 

To be fair, POTUS OJ did order that 2 nuclear subs be mobilized closer to Russia. But, there's no threat of any type of action against them.

 

Today, it was announced that POTUS OJ and Vlady Putin will be meeting in Alaska next Friday (Aug 15th). Ukrainian President Zelensky hasn't been invited. 

 

I do not believe this meeting will end in a cease-fire. Any concessions POTUS OJ and Putin cook up will not be acceptable to Ukraine.  The war will continue. Killing more people.

This entire thing seems to be "staged" in my opinion.

1. Russia could have won this war in 3 months (or less) if they were serious about defeating Ukraine.
They are purposely dragging it out for some reason.

2. Clearly NATO is supplying Ukraine with weapons and Russia obviously knows it, so why hasn't a war broken out between Russia and NATO yet?
What are they waiting on?

Seems like the overlay for some underplay.

Russia isn't interested in *winning* the war by destroying Ukraine. 

 

Russia doesn't want Ukraine to become a member of NATO.  Vlady Putin wants to restore the Soviet Union.

 

Russia also wants to takeover a certain amount of the Ukraine land mass to reinforce its own border.

That would lead to World War 3 and potentially nuclear weapons.

 

Nobody wants to go that hard. Not for this dust-up between cousins.

Some would argue that WW3 already started on 9/11.
And it's been "on going" since.

But as far as the commonly believed WW3 that is supposed to be the nuclear war between the U.S. and Russia.....
If it hasn't happened by now, I'm not sure if it will.

 

I think we both have entertained the theory that those nukes aren't for eachother but really for the darker nations who would dare pose a SERIOUS threat to the global white power structure.
...if all else fails.

 

Russia and Ukraine have been going at it for over 3 years now but NATO has yet to get fully involved and Russia hasn't provoked them.
I'm not sure what's going on but this isn't a "serious" conflict.
Oh, there are people dying by the thousands sho'nuff. 
It's serious in THAT regard.

But neither side is really going all out to "end" it and win it.

It seems to me that if they were actually serious, nukes would have been used already because their nations are being destroyed and people are being killed ANYWAY.

If you know it's headed in that direction, what difference does it make if your nation is destroyed in 3 years or 3 days?

Correct. Nukes are white folks' last ditch effort to maintain control of the planet.

 

If/when white folks feel themselves losing power especially to non-white folks...they will try to blow up the whole damn thing.

NATO cannot get involved without permission.

Using nuclear weapons is the very last option for ending a conflict. Remember, nukes ended WW2.

NATO is already involved.
They're supplying Ukraine and making veiled threats against Russia.

This is why I say this thing seems staged or orchestrated.
If they were serious about actually winning they would have escalated things by now and brought them to a head.
Even 2 invidiuals don't fight like that.

If you and I are neighbors and end up beefing with eachother, we don't spend 5 years giving eachother flat tires.
I flatten one of your, then you do the same....every month.
Just poking holes in eachother's tires...nothing more....and waiting until the other one responds in kid.
Then we buy a new set of tires and do the same thing over again.....for 5 years????
That doesn't sound like a serious beef between two men.
That sounds more like some game.

NATO is supplying a limited amount of weaponry to Ukraine.  The US is sending the bulk of it.  

 

Without permission, NATO does not have the power to make any threats against Russia.

 

The US is threatening sanctions against countries that do business with Russia.

Conflict and war in geopolitics is totally different *game* from individuals beefing.

 

No doubt...Ukrainians and Russians are being unalived every day over the past 3 years and counting. 

 

Yet, the leaders of those two countries are traveling from one place to another as if they are recording artists on tour.

 

Right now, Ukrainian president Vlodymyr Zelenskyy is Germany kicking it with European leaders. 

 

Supposedly, Russian president Vlady Putin will be in Alaska to meet with POTUS OJ on Friday. 

 

There's a possibility of a 3rd meeting that brings all parties together. 

 

I doubt that meeting or a cease-fire will happen especially if Ukraine is expected to give up the Donbas region.

 

Meanwhile, Ukrainians and Russians are still *fighting* and dying.

All that you said pretty much supports my assertion that this thing is orchestrated.
It's not a serious conflict between two serious enemies but more of a game, well rehearsed and acted out with the "little people" being sent to the front lines to die in it.

It's an orchestrated *game* to the extent that Putin doesn't want Ukraine to be a part of NATO. He's slapping them around as a flex. 

 

Hwever, the main thing Putin is deadly serious about is his desire to resurrect the USSR.

I don't even think Russia is serious about THAT anymore either.
If that's the case, why are they abandoning their so-called "allies"????

Iran
Cuba
Libya
Syria

All of these nations had agreements with Russia for some sort of protection but when the shit hit the fan, Russia stood on the sidelines.
They may send in a few weapons from time to time but for the most part they have been giving little more than moral/oral support since the late 80s.
