I'll be very brief:  

Friendly advice - quit using illegal drugs ! Otherwise you will soon see unicorns and flat earth !  




The call sign of the new commander-in-chief of the AFU is "Bars". He has been in charge of the land forces of the AFU since 2019, participated in the successful defense and development of Kiev and the destruction of Russian Nazis in Kiev and Kiev region, and was the organizer of the beautiful Kharkiv counterattack, when the "second army of the world" fled faster than sound, covering the Ukrainian land with piles of their equipment and bodies of terrorists of the Russian army. Then the "heroic Putin" called it a "goodwill gesture"  Apparently, Putin was also under the influence of strong drugs 

I have to disagree since history is filled with examples where the invaded country defeats the invaders who had "more complete weapons". I can even give you two live examples: Yemen and Palestine. Both are facing a much more powerful and much better equipped invaders and both have been defeating their enemies.

For example in case of Yemen the invasion lasted more than 8 years and only recently it "paused" with a cease fire. Do you know why? The invaders (ie. US-Arab coalition) were forced to stop the invasion and slaughter the moment Armed Forces of Yemen started hitting them where it hurt the most, deep into their territories and their infrastructure like the Aramco oil facilities.

Does United States allow Ukraine to attack Russia that way? Like attacking Russian weapon factories, refineries, etc.? No, absolutely not! Since US wants to turn Ukraine to Russia's Afghanistan, this is why they neither gives them any weapon with a range more than 100-300 km range, nor allows them to manufacture one themselves.

I think even if they fight for their country it won't change anything, Russia's weapons are more complete than Ukraine's, enthusiasm alone is not enough, you need more than that.
Or has this become a scenario that must happen and is what the global elite wants?

Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, general Zaluzhnyi was fired just because he wasn't obeying NATO orders and was trying to fight for Ukraine and not for US. He was also going against the US installed Zionist puppet.
He was replaced by "The Butcher" because his replacement is known for obeying NATO orders...

And some people still have a hard time believing the US congress members statements when they say "We [meaning US] will fight Russians to the last Ukrainian". This is exactly why Ukraine has been losing and will continue to lose as long as they fight for US and not for Ukraine.

All of this mess will continue and the global economy will suffer as the result. Which is at the same time highlighting the importance of decoupling the economy and deglobalizing it which starts with dedollarisation and will continue with economic blocs that separate themselves from the dollar and US policies such as warmongering that affects the economy.
The good news is that dedollarisation and economic blocs (BRICS, SCO, ASEAN, etc.) continue strengthening and expanding.

"No money but a mouthful of bananas" is a short description of modern russia

Russian authorities are launching a "banana scheme" to solve the problem of trade imbalance with India, which has increased its oil purchases from Russia 11 times since the war began, but has not launched a reciprocal flow of goods to the Russian market.

Bananas should patch up the "hole" in the Russian-Indian trade balance and possibly solve the problem of rupees hanging in India, the amount of which, according to Reuters, may reach $39 billion. This is the money that Indian refineries used to pay for Russian crude oil, having obeyed the requirement to conduct transactions in national currencies. However, it turned out to be impossible to withdraw rupees from India: local currency regulations prohibit this.

And all this against the backdrop of constant begging for arms from North Korea, Iran and other rogue countries.

Looking at this scheme, it makes me laugh when I imagine who and with what, in Russia, will pay to suppliers of shells to Russian terrorists! Will they slave off part of the Russian population ? They're used to it !

It seems to me that I have completely answered your questions. Regarding the fact that Russia will not attack anyone after Ukraine, I gave a number of examples from the statements of the top officials of this state - Putin, Peskov and Lavrov that before the attack on Ukraine they also blatantly lied that they were not going to attack her. True, they lied and are lying not only about this. That is, there is no faith in the Russian leadership, they are complete liars. Therefore, what they continue to invent about the purpose of attacking Ukraine does not matter at all, since it is still a lie.

  In this regard, in response to your request to report on the reasons for Russia’s attack on Ukraine from the words of Russian officials, I wrote on January 28: “As for why Russia attacked Ukraine, the reasons and goals of this attack still change periodically. From the “demilitarization” and “denazification” of Ukraine in the first days of the terrorist attack to the statement by the governor of St. Petersburg that the motive for such an attack was the fight against mythical gender-neutral toilets in Ukraine. https://24tv.ua/ru/rossijskaja-propaganda -gubernator-petersburga-zajavil-chto-rossija_n2472841".

But if you want to talk more about it, let's talk. So, in Wikipedia it is written about this: As one of the justifications for the invasion, Vladimir Putin used the untrue representation of Ukraine as a neo-Nazi state leading genocide in the Donbass."
https://ru.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%A0%D0%B5%D1%87%D1%8C_%D0%92%D0%BB%D0%B0%D0%B4%D0%B8 %D0%BC%D0%B8%D1%80%D0%B0_%D0%9F%D1%83%D1%82%D0%B8%D0%BD%D0%B0_%D0%BE_%D0%BD%D0 %B0%D1%87%D0%B0%D0%BB%D0%B5_%D0%B2%D1%82%D0%BE%D1%80%D0%B6%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%B8 %D1%8F_%D0%BD%D0%B0_%D0%A3%D0%BA%D1%80%D0%B0%D0%B8%D0%BD%D1%83

In the same place, in the section “Content of the appeal” it is written: “Putin called the purpose of the invasion of Ukraine “the protection of people who have been subjected to bullying and genocide by the Kiev regime for eight years,” and in order to prevent the alleged bullying and genocide, Russia needs to “demilitarize and denazify Ukraine”[1].

That is, according to Putin, the Russians attacked Ukraine to protect Russian-speaking people in Donbass. Protected. Some previously prosperous settlements turned into complete ruins due to the scorched earth tactics of the invasion, with virtually no male population left. Those who survived the Russian artillery were mobilized for the war and at the front they were forced to attack in the front ranks, and behind them there were loading detachments that killed the retreating ones. The population of Donbass is being disposed of, and in their place, hundreds of thousands of Russians - Kazakhs, Buryats, Chechens and other nationalities - are being resettled from the depths of Russia, so that in the future the conquered territory will be more obedient to the Kremlin.

As for the “demilitarization” and “denazification” of Ukraine declared by Putin, a significant part of the Russian population not only does not understand the meaning of these words, but also cannot pronounce them. In fact, they mean the destruction of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, as well as the destruction of Ukraine as a state and Ukrainians as a nation.

Then other reasons for the attack on Ukraine appeared, but if you want, more on that later.

News from a "great and stable economy"
- Putin warned about cutting spending on science. Everything here seems to be logical - why science if you need to satisfy your painful ambitions By the way, medicine and education are also in the fire of a terrorist war against the developed world.

But this is not the end yet
- Putin demanded that technologies be invented to replace Western ones!

But so far, of all the successes of the “world leader”: oil in exchange for .. bananas and flowers
- The Russian authorities are launching a “banana scheme” to solve the problem of trade imbalance with India, which increased oil purchases in the Russian Federation 11 times after the start of the war, but did not launch a return flow of goods to the Russian market...

But they sell oil so profitably and expensively 

You have written whole 12 paragraphs of text but 0 proof. No facts, no sources. You have ignored my point, my question completely. Like a typical troll. 

I will paste my questions below once again: Really? Obvious? Can you provide any source, colonel?   It doesn't look obvious to me at all. Russia will be exhausted after the war and they can't confront the entire NATO. That's BS. And why do your think Russia is going to seize the territory of Ukraine? Please quote any Russian politician or government official saying that.

Which part of it you don't understand? I will translate this post into Ukrainian for you:

 cпpaвдi? Oчeвиднo? Чи мoжeтe ви нaдaти якecь джepeлo, пoлкoвникy? Meнi цe зoвciм нe здaєтьcя oчeвидним. Pociя виcнaжитьcя пicля вiйни i нe змoжe пpoтиcтoяти вcьoмy HATO. Цe БC.

And you're unhappy I'm calling you retarded? Only retarded people can't comprehend what they're being told.

The hardest thing to think of is war and conflict even the so called warmonger always have the felt of losses course by war and conflict, no nation or society support it but occur as unforseen circumstances.
War destroys communities and families and often disrupts the development of the social and economic fabric of nations. The effects of war include long-term physical and psychological harm to children and adults, as well as reduction in material and human capital. Develop nation can turn under develop due to effects of war typical example the ongoing war in Ukraine many life , property economy and many to mention has been lost, it the worst thing to befall any nation.

In Russia, any neighboring state that refuses to fall under its direct influence and that tries to conduct independent foreign policy activities is considered hostile. Russia has consistently adhered to this policy for many centuries, so wars of aggression have become the norm for it, and now it includes many nations and nationalities, which the Kremlin continues to ruthlessly exploit, sucking oil, gas and other natural resources from their territories.

Therefore, those neighboring states that join any defensive alliances that do not include or dominate Russia pose a particular danger to Russia. Therefore, it does not matter whether it will be NATO or another military alliance. The danger for Russia is the very difficulty of continuing further violent influence on them.

Any explanations for aggression on the part of Russia have no meaning. These reasons will change depending on changes in the situation, as happens in explaining the reasons for the attack on Ukraine. There is only one reason: Ukraine allowed itself the impudence to leave Russia’s zone of influence. And fairy tales about NATO’s hostility remain fairy tales only for the domestic audience; the world community has long understood the parasitic essence of the Kremlin. Therefore, evil must be eradicated; it is useless to negotiate with it.

of course the effects of war will have an effect on the prices of all goods will rise. especially food prices will skyrocket. war conditions agricultural land will be destroyed. food needs imports. imports in war conditions will be difficult to enter. money becomes useless if the conditions of war. the next effect will experience famine conditions. unless there is outside assistance entering the example of Ukraine.

war does not have any benefit but people will want to show that they are in control and they forget the consequences that war comes with the social challenges people face and the mental breakdown. and once the economic structure is affected then the entire running of the country will be affected, and the war between Ukraine and Russia was a disaster, and now Palestine. what pains me with this country is the fact that they do not give value to the risk they are putting their citizens, and they can spend any amount on war but can not spend on the welfare of their people which is unwise.

The first thing is to look for possible means that you can secure your safety and then you can think of other things because if war starts anything can hit you anywhere, so you have to get information on safe zones if you should even watch a documentary you might even shade tears just because of the amount of pain people go through that period, and also a lot of lives are even lost in the process.  and you might even lose some assets in the process, it only take prayer for your house not to be destroyed, and when it starts I won't even think you will put mind in does things because you will only want to stay alive.

And with this people are supposed to know the value of Bitcoin because, during situations like this, it is better to have Bitcoin than to have money, because when everywhere is calm any time any day you can remove your money without any stress, the news has even made video and shown us how terrible war can be and we know that it is something that will happen even if people like it or not its left for us to protect our self.

But what did you expect? Russia doesn't want a hostile country right next to it's border, hundreds of kilometres away from Moscow... Imagine Putin visiting Mexico and giving away cookies to people in order to overthrow the government and install a new pro-Russian one. Then flooding Mexico with Russian arms and training Mexican military. What would the US do? 

To begin with, Russia, until the last day before the full-scale invasion of Ukrainian territory in February 2022, also denied that they were going to attack Ukraine. At the same time, top Russian officials, including Putin, have repeatedly denied the existence of invasion plans and even ridiculed such Western fears. But they deceived and attacked.

I give examples.
The American newspaper The Washington Post was the first to publicly report the suspicious gathering of Russian troops to the border with Ukraine on October 30, 2021, and on November 1, this information with published satellite images was confirmed by Politico. The first reaction from the Russian side came on November 3, when the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, called these messages an “information salvo” and a “fake campaign.”

On November 12, Putin’s press secretary Dmitry Peskov also joined in the denials. "Headlines like this are nothing more than empty, baseless escalation of tension. Russia poses no threat to anyone," he said. Later, Peskov tried to present this information as “camouflage to cover up the aggressive thoughts” not of Moscow, but of Kyiv, which allegedly wanted to “solve the problem of the southeast by force.”

On December 26, the press secretary of the President of the Russian Federation answered Vladimir Solovyov’s question whether Russia would attack first: “Russia has never attacked anyone first.” On February 20, Peskov expanded on this idea: “Russia, which has experienced so many wars, is the last country in Europe that even wants to utter the word “war.”

Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov also actively tried to convince the world community that Russia would not start a war. Speaking on January 21 at a press conference in Geneva after a meeting with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken, he said, answering a question from an American journalist: “You are claiming that we are going to attack Ukraine, although we have already explained many times that this is not so. that this will happen, you immediately ask: “Why now?” And when should we not attack?” It seems that on February 24, a serious answer appeared to Lavrov’s humorous question.

On February 15, nine days before the invasion of Russian troops in Ukraine, the head of the Russian Foreign Ministry called statements about an impending attack by Russia “information terrorism” and laughed at a Polish journalist who, at a press conference between Lavrov and Polish Foreign Minister Zbigniew Rau, asked: “That is, invasion will not be?". The head of Russian diplomacy called the media employee “unintelligible.”

Personally, Russian President Putin has also repeatedly denied plans to attack Ukraine. At the “Russia Calling” investment forum on November 30, 2021, he answered a direct question from one of the businessmen: “Should investors be wary of the possible deployment of Russian troops to Ukraine?” Putin reassured him: “Look, they talked about the possible entry of Russian troops into Ukraine at the beginning of the year - we conducted the Zapad-2021 exercises - but, as we see, this did not happen.”

After negotiations with French leader Emmanuel Macron on February 8, the Russian President again emphasized that the fears are unfounded: “The movement of our troops on our own, I want to emphasize, territory is presented as a threat of Russian invasion - in this case to Ukraine. The Baltic countries allegedly also feel in danger, and other states are our neighbors. On what basis is not very clear."

Even on February 22, having announced the recognition of the self-proclaimed “DPR” and “LPR” within the borders of the Donetsk and Lugansk regions of Ukraine, Putin argued that this did not mean war: “We expect, and I want to emphasize this, that all controversial issues will be resolved during negotiations between the current Kyiv authorities and the leadership of these republics."

Moreover, de facto declaring the start of war with Ukraine, the Russian President continued to contradict himself: “At the same time, our plans do not include the occupation of Ukrainian territories. We are not going to impose anything on anyone by force.”

  At various times in recent years, the Kremlin has expressed threats of attack against Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Moldova, Poland, Kazakhstan and even Germany. What, are they also lying?

Regarding why Russia attacked Ukraine, the reasons and goals of this attack are still periodically changed there. From the “demilitarization” and “denazification” of Ukraine in the early days of the attack, to the statement by the governor of St. Petersburg that the motivation for such an attack was the fight against the mythical gender-neutral toilets in Ukraine.

Really? Obvious? Can you provide any source, colonel?   It doesn't look obvious to me at all. Russia will be exhausted after the war and they can't confront the entire NATO. That's BS. And why do your think Russia is going to seize the territory of Ukraine? Please quote any Russian politician or government official saying that.

Nobody is forcing them to manufacture weapons. They themselves decided to choose a side in this conflict.

Indeed, they have nothing to think about if the country they live in is at war and they will think about how to save themselves and stay alive in the hope that it will end soon and can return to normal as before, because for the people of course it will be very difficult if their country is at war. will have difficulty in meeting their needs and also suffer greatly from war.

If we choose to protect the assets we have by investing in Bitcoin, of course we have to save the seed phrase well and we have to really guard it because we cannot guarantee safety in war conditions and don't lose access to the Bitcoin wallet we have.

To avoid similar situations with massive destruction of civilian infrastructure and killings of civilians, as is happening now in Ukraine, first of all you need to think not how to hide from the war, but how to prevent it. So that maniacs like Putin do not appear and blackmail the world by force of arms.

We were already on the verge of a breakthrough in technology and a qualitative improvement in the lives of people on our planet. However, now, due to Russia’s aggressive military actions, European countries are now faced with the need to transfer their economies to a military footing, since it is already obvious that Russia will not limit itself to seizing the territory of Ukraine. This means that instead of efforts aimed at improving people’s lives, shells and missiles will be manufactured that will cause yet another mass of deaths.

If your country is at war, there is nothing you can think about other than saving yourself and surviving. Money, houses and other possessions are no longer so important, we can see what is happening in Ukraine and Palestine. But the worst thing is that in Palestine, let alone thinking about accumulating wealth to get food, they are having difficulty, they are suffering from the effects of war.

However, from all the wars that are happening right now, we can learn that Bitcoin is the one that can save our wealth or assets in times of war. Houses can be destroyed, fiat can be burned, but by keeping bitcoins in your wallet and storing your seed phrase well, even in war, our assets will remain safe. In fact, I once read the news that a lot of aid was distributed to countries at war using bitcoin transactions.

war conditions, for example in ukraine or palestine, the economy must be destroyed. the enthusiasm of the population in making money is down. the main thing in such a situation is the safety of his life and life. making money hoarding treasures is not on his mind. the main thing is enough to eat. because even having money is useless, no one can buy market stores must also be closed.

War destroyed the life of many individuals therefore if war initiates then one country should leave his ego otherwise there will be more wrong things to experience and so many individuals will face hard situations. During the situations of war everyone is in Struggle to live more life by making their lifestyle secure but they are not interested that time to make investment and save their money. If we are not present in the country where there is a war then it is our responsibility to send money to help those needy people.
