Ben Hodges Explained! Russia's Collapse Will Be Much Worse Than You Think!

i doubt it will be worse than i think...without watching that video, i expect it to come down to bloody wars between some of the "states" that have long standing grudges, i expect some to have internal conflicts, some citizens wanting independence, while others want to join china. I expect those that hold some of russia's nuclear weapons to try to use them as blackmail tools, or may even try to use them to wipe out long term ancestoral enemy states...I expect economic collapse, and at least a few years of worldwide shortages as the region stabilizes.
And these are the reasons i think NATO should be standing ready to move in and secure as many of those nuclear sites as possible...and while they're at it, they should quell at least the worst of the internecine fighting between the former russian territories.

At midnight (12:01am Wednesday) there is a planned Minuteman launch out of Vandenberg. They’re pretty cool to watch; the weather was good for the last one in February. That launch and this one are operational readiness tests, a pretty brisk cadence that I’m sure has nothing at all to do with sending Russia, China and NK a message.

I happen to be in the trajectory plane for a lob at Kwajalein. So the missile heads straight up from this vantage. The last one was moonlit, so I got to see the big puff of exhaust when stage 3 ended propulsion with some fuel left to burn. The stage is fitted with four shaped charges that open up the motor, since there’s no putting out a solid-fuel rocket.

They’re calling for partly cloudy, unfortunately.

They know where they all are, and Russia would probably bring most of them home before the shit really hit the fan. As I said though a few nukes used among themselves in Asia wouldn't affect Europe much less North America, there have been plenty of above ground tests. It is a question of risk to NATO I should think, the empire might come apart, but European Russia where 80% of the Russians live might not. Any weapons would likely be used among themselves, and China would freakout more than we would, besides NATO is a defensive alliance and can only act if attacked. Some bridges only need to be crossed when you come to them, if you get there in the first place.

When Trump attacked and tried to destroy the state department he might as well have tried to attack the US military, because the state department saves them a lot of trouble and shit. Here is an example of the state department at work twisting arms and squeezing nuts for Uncle Sam.

Maybe supplying a country that is starving a lot of the Muslim world is not such a good idea when Ukraine supplies grain to much of it. Besides a liberated Ukraine and an open Black Sea would mean more revenue from the Suez Canal with increased traffic volumes.

Prior to going to work for the State of California I had a quite lucrative job offer from Johnson Controls to work on Kwajalein. But is was a 1 year contract and the state was offering a long term career with hella good benefits. However the thought of working and living on that tropical atoll was quite appealing.

i've noticed some bias from them recently...been wondering if they had a change in management, or ownership?

Media Bias/Fact Check gives them decent marks, but notes that some hard-right content appears. I just got pushed this, which seems to be a bit out of alignment with the rather vague picture we have at this time. Perhaps they’re pandering to the pro-Russia Republicans.

The article does say, correctly imo, that much of what we’ve heard has been filtered through Ukrainian sources, with consequent bias.

Retired general warns of Russia's ability to adapt on battlefield

"It is undeniable that some learning and evolution has taken place," said Mick Ryan, retired major general of the Australian Army.

I've been trying to take everything with a grain of salt...My blood pressure is getting pretty high.
If the source is Ukrainian or russian i usually add/subtract about 30% of their numbers, depending on which way the bias is running.

Volunteer support is pouring in, not just government support. A lot of the drones they are using now are the result of donations, Mark Hamil helped kill a lot of Russians, raising cash among celebs for the drone campaign. From night vision equipment to first aid kits, encrypted radios, and drones of all descriptions the volunteer effort has been massive with eastern European countries going the extra mile with civilian donations.

The Russians are headed for an ass kicking, some estimate it will start around the end of the month, perhaps sooner, the ground looks like it's drying out nicely and it's been warm enough for spring to have sprung and things are greening up. I'm pretty sure they would like to be well on their way to defeating the Russians by May 9th a symbolic date methinks. It will help to get rid of Vlad and cause him huge humiliation, so it is a valid operation. Imagine the parade in Moscow as a military catastrophe is unfolding just to the south in Ukraine. Then the Ukrainian drones will appear overhead as the air raid sirens go off and the crowd panics while Vlad runs inside Lenin's tomb. Overhead with blue and yellow smoke grenades on the end of each wing they are leaving the Ukrainian flag in streaks across the sky from a dozen drones orbiting red square as soldiers shoot at them with AKs in the pandemonium. Then the TV is cut off... :lol:
