The Empire Strikes Back

 

Something almost unbelievable has happened in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. Ukrainian troops have invaded Russia. On the 6th of August they sent troops into the Kursk oblast, a border region to the north of Ukraine. This is the first time Russian territory has been invaded since Germany's Operation Barbarossa in 1941. Unfortunately there is very little reliable news about what's going on. As has always been the case in this war, speculation is reported as fact and you'll hear that this is both an embarrassing kick in the teeth for "Puteler" and also a terrible blunder by Zelensky and his globalist backers that the Russians have already successfully repelled. We'll have to wait for more computer game clips to get some better information. The question is, why have they done this? Is it to cause a diversion from the Donbass? Is it the start of a more long term strategy of attrition? How significant has Russia's response been? Are they trying to provoke Russia? Are they trying to manipulate their Western allies into an all out attack on Russia? They may be rushing things along before Trump gets in in November. Kursk is far less well defended than Donbass. This could be a ploy to force negotiations. Source: https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/how-russia-looked-wrong-way-ukraine-invaded-2024-08-17/. I wonder if it's a coincidence that this has happened at the same time that attention has focused on the destroyed Nord Stream pipelines, see here for background: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2022/09/nord-stream-usa-prime-suspect.html. It seems that once again conspiracy theorists have been proven right. New evidence has just emerged that the Zelensky regime in Kyiv masterminded the operation with the collusion of their globalist supporters. It was supposedly carried out by a private contractor.

This would make Nord Stream a strategic false flag attack by Ukraine to force the hand of its allies whom it considers clients. And sod the frozen German pensioners! This should be the biggest news story of the Ukraine war so far, but will it become so? This Ukraine saga has taken another twist; how will it develop next?
