Tanki su ti argumenti (najveca zemlja ne znaci nista, a Kinezi osim sto im nisu nikakvi saveznici, imaju dosta i sopstvenih problema) i to sto je Klotzen pisao se oslanja na solidne argumente. Druga je stvar sto je zli gnom za ovih 24 godine napravio rezerve (koje su se ipak prepolovile u ove dve godine) i sto je imao dodatnu zaradu prve godine kada su cene nafte skocile. Neke stvari su navedene u gornjem tekstu, a evo samo par stvari, pa pokusaj da ih osporis, tj da argumentiras kako oni nece oslabiti russku ekonomiju: 1. najmanje milion mladih, radnosposobnih i verovatno visokoobrazovanih je napustilo russiju 2. ~400 000 ih je poginulo/ranjeno, a jos 600 000 ih je vezano za rat u Ukrajini 3. i pre rata im je natalitet bio nizak, a sada je jos nizi 4. kamata centralne banke je na 16%, a inflacija (zvanicna) je 7.4%, budzetski defizit ogroman, rublja pada 5. naftu i gas, koji su im najveci izvor prihoda, moraju da prodaju po diskontnim cenama i sa vecim izdacima za prevoz (uz to dobijaju pretezno yuane i rupije) - najnoviji napadi na rafinerije svakako nece povecati te prihode 6. ekonomski rast se zasniva iskljucivo na drzavnim izdacima za rat, koji ne donose nista drustvu, ostatak privrede stagnira 7. tehnoloska izolovanost i izostanak stranih investicija onemogucavaju bilo kakav ekonomski napredak Jedina stvar koja russiju jos drzi su rezerve, koje se polako ali sigurno tope. Kada vise ne bude moguce finansirati prihode ljudi u Moskvi i St. Petersburgu da ostanu mirni i kada vise ne bude mogao kupovati (jer za to trebaju $$$) rakete i municiju od Irana, SK, rat ce se pribliziti kraju. Kad bi samo oni blesavi kultisti u USA barem jos jednom podrzali oruzjem Ukrajinu sve bi bilo puno lakse.

Russian economic ‘resilience’ is not what it seems The markup in the International Monetary Fund’s 2024 Russian growth forecast from 1.1% to 2.6% has elicited stories about Russian economic ‘resilience’. For decades, Russia ran highly orthodox and prudent macroeconomic policies, accumulating wealth amid extremely low debt levels. The strength of these orthodox ‘Fortress Russia’ policies created substantial fiscal space, which is now helping Russia finance highly stimulative fiscal policies to support its war against Ukraine and weather the associated economic stresses. Economic policy-makers can support growth in the short run with large fiscal stimulus or credit expansion and post good growth numbers. Given strong buffers and the populace’s seeming ability to tolerate hardship, Russia may well be able to sustain such performance for several years. But ‘resilience’ is a misnomer. Russia is masking a process of significant economic degradation that will continue well into the future and further marginalise its global footprint.

@40Wins Sorry, ne mogu sve da odslusam. Makron voli mnogo da prica i to politicarski. U sustini konacno govori ono sto je vecini nas vec odavno jasno na forumu - da se russiji ne sme dozvoliti da pobedi. Sutra ce biti sve u novinama, mada ja ne vidim niceg novog osim malo ostrije retorike. Nadam se da ce recima slediti delo tj. da ce i FR konacno poslati malo vise oruzja, koje ima.

Fatal aid-drop over Gaza as parachutes fail Several people have reportedly been injured and at least 5 killed after parachutes dropping aid over Gaza failed to open. Verses On Five People Being Killed By A Falling Package Of Foreign Aid When God placed Man upon the earth In days of God knows when He said to love the Lord your God And love your fellow men It's safe enough to love the Lord In worship or in song The Lord your God is far away And very, very strong But he who loves his fellow man Must careful be, and agile For fellow men are very close And very, very fragile So Midgley, Marx, and Mao, and more All had their tale to tell They tried to help their fellow men And pushed them into Hell And Galton, Ehrlich, Robespierre Corbusier and Kipling All saw their actions ripple out And worsen in the rippling And every time you throw a coin Into a beggar's jar The coin could strike the beggar's face And leave him with a scar And every slice of bread you give To a child starved and broke Could lodge the wrong way in his throat And cause the kid to choke The best laid plans of mice and men Are oft unwisely laid And end with Palestinians Struck dead by falling aid When young, I learned philosophy At many a scholar's door And all the wisdom that I learned Came down to options four: * To make your heart as hard as stone Like the heart of a machine And sit there supercilious Because your hands are clean * To pet your dog and kiss your kid And call your duty done While far away, the Gazan girls Are dropping one by one * To rush in bright and glorious 'Neath the golden flag of Good Then apologize at leisure to Men crushed by falling food * Or to creep in like accountants Using gain and loss as anchors As cunning as the serpents And as cold as Wall Street bankers When I was young, I fought among The golden-flagged crusaders But now I’m old, and now I stand Beside the snakes and traders So when my plans go all awry And my name becomes a curse I can say the other option was Eleven utils worse And if upon the Judgment Day God comes to me in wrath I'll have a PowerPoint prepared To prove I did the math And if, upon the Judgment Day God says my math is wrong I'll tell Him He is far away And very, very strong But man is very, very close And very, very brittle And we can only do our best Or sit there, noncommital And so we sighed, and multiplied And after that, we prayed For souls of Palestinians Struck dead by falling aid.

The Plan (tajni) biva sve vise raskrinkan, kockice se polako slazu. Na granici (juznoj) ce biti postavljene brojne kamere, koje ce uz pomoc KI (privatne) na osnovu crta njihovog lica, registrovati sve ljute, nesrecne, depresivne i mentalno obolele progresivce, te ce ih zatim skupiti (kavezi?) i najnovijim SpaceX projektom poslati na Mars (uz odgovarajucu nadoknadu svemirskoj Karen). Win-win-win situacija. Pare su se okrenule i nagomilale, ilegalni imigranti imaju hranu i smestaj, Marsovci se ne mogu buniti, repsi resili problem i mogu vecno da vladaju (sanjajuci dalje neometano american dream). Demsi mogu da se isele u njima mile maoisticke drzave, kao na pr. Norvesku, Dansku, Svedsku i Svajcarsku.

Mozda @zoran59 i nije toliko pogresio ? PS Weikart on Gray, 'About Face: German Physiognomic Thought from Lavater to Auschwitz'

Neuspehu ukrajinske ofanzive svakako je doprinelo i to sto je Zapad davao pomoc u naoruzanju na kasicicu (premalo i prekasno), tako da su russi stigli da se konsoliduju i ukopaju, sa sve nepreglednim minskim poljima. Takve linije tesko je probiti bez vazdusne i artiljerijske nadmoci. Ne bih da nabedjujem nikoga, ali vec duze vremena je objavljena russka taktika dezinformisanja sa ciljem da se unese sumnja i razdor medju zapadnim saveznicima, a ta prica o razdoru u Ukrajini je na slicnoj liniji [sa Zelenski je glumac i drogeras se preslo na - zasto nema izbora, zasto nema pregovora kada ih russi tako velikodusno nude, Zelenski diktator, nesloga medju Ukrajincima, prislilna mobilizacija kukavickih Ukrajinaca, zasto pranje novca u Ukrajini kada jadni US gradjani nemaju krov nad glavom i moraju da se drogiraju (a pre ovog rata je sve bilo ok), zasto slati poreske pare (a salje se najvise oruzje koje pomaze US industriju), kada jadni Ameri nemaju dovoljno, nemoj Taurus inace atomski rat, Ukrajina najkorumpiranija drzava u svemiru ...]. GB je jedan od najvecih saveznika trenutno i mesto ambasadora tamo ne samo da nije sklanjanje nepozeljnog politickog protivnika na stranu, vec moze biti cak priprema za nasledjivanje Zelenskog. Osim toga mozda su za smenu u pitanju i zdravstven razlozi. "Iznenada umro još jedan od šefova u ruskom naftnom divu Lukoilu. On je već četvrti od početka rata u Ukrajini." Izgleda da presusuju pare iz kasice za petu kolonu.

Pitanje je koliko takvi "ekstremi" stvarno uticu na neko drustvo (osim rasprava i svadjanja po medijima). Koliki uticaj ima radikalna levica na sticanje i raspodelu bogatstva u USA ? Privatizacija isto ima svojih nedostataka (maksimiranje profita bez ulaganja u servis i dalji razvoj - GB zeleznica na pr.). Cudno je da teski kapitalisti u CH ne zele da privatizuju zeleznicu, postu, vodovod... (jer im glasaci, koji su isto mali kapitalisti, iz nekog cudnog razloga to ne daju) i kada neka velika banka padne (CS), ili se pojavi epidemija, ili treba izgraditi neku infrastruktru, svi vape za podrskom drzave. Logicno i za ocekivati je da ce neki na pr. lekar, koji je dosao iz neke zabiti gde su se osetile posledice eksperimenta sa socijalizmom (zapravo jednopartijske vladavine), iako je tamo dobio dobro obrazovanje i koji ima platu > 120 000 $, biti odusevljen dvopartijskim sistemom koji mu to omogucuje i da ce ga iz petnih zila braniti. Isto tako je logicno da ce neko ko ima < od 60 000 $ biti manje odusevljen tim istim sistemom. Sto se reko desava. Da bi ga ipak bezuslovno branio, potrebno je skrenuti njegovu paznju (indoktrinacija od malih nogu, reklame) na nematerijalne stvari tako da se moze osetiti delom - "najbolje drzave na svetu" i "najmocnije drzave na svetu koja je "leglo slobode", "ljudskih prava", "prava na zivot", "prava na "american way of life", u kojoj svako moze da sanja "american dream" i u kojoj svako skoro neograniceno moze da izrabljuje druge i bude izrabljivan, jer - "sloboda" (iako se ona najcesce svodi na mogucnost izbora izmedju cole i pepsi, big meka i xxxl meka). Sto ce sve biti puno lakse, ako isti nikada nije bio izvan USA i nije upoznao neki drugi sistem ("patriotizam"). USA izbori su vec dugo farsa (ne na nivou russije, ali mozda ide u tom smeru), ne zbog maoista i marksista, vec zbog sve jace plutokratije. Zatvaranje ociju pred stvarnim problemima USA drustva i skretanje tema na navodne ideoloske probleme sa wokizmom/socijalizmom/komunizmom/staljinizmom/maoizmom moze samo neko ko nema dovoljno znanja o USA, ili neko ko profitira toliko od tog sistema da ima (ideolosku) agendu da te probleme ne vidi i sistem po svaku cenu odrzi istim.

Jos kad bi neko ovde uspeo objasniti, kakve veze ima marksizam sa USA i temom o USA ?

Pominjanje marksizma, socijalizma, komunizma, staljinizma, maoizma (i wokizma) kao neke velike pretnje po USA je cisti BS (bullshit). USA je izrazita plutokratija (na vlast se ne može doći bez obilnih financijskih sredstava, a financijeri određuju politiku vlasti u ispunjavanju svojih interesa) i laissez-faire neo-liberalni kapitalizam (sve ce to trziste pozlatiti), koji sve vise pokazuje autoritativne crte, koje se onda iskazuju kao borba pogleda na svet (iako su u sustini ekonomski odredjene). Populizam, posebno krajnje desnice (tea pokret, alt right, MAGA kult, sa sve zaverama poput QAnona i ostalim religioznim bedastocama), suprostavljen slicnom, ali manje uticajnom i opasnom levom strujom, dovodi do sve vece polarizacije, koja je zapravo i pozeljna jer prikriva stvarne tokove moci i odlucivanja (zato inisistiranje desnice na kulturoloskoj borbi svjetonazora). Citav MAGA kult, kao i jacanje krajnje populisticke desnice u Evropi (Italija, Madjarska, Francuska, Portugal, Slovacka, Nizozemska), vodi neminovno jacanju autoritarizma i slabljenju demokratije (na pr. Madjarske - ukidanje nezavisnih medija, podrivanje nezavisnog sudstva, progon opozicije, povecanje korupcije). Populisti imaju jednostavna "resenja" za kompleksna drustvena pitanja i koriste strah i porast nesigurnosti populacije usled raznih kriznih situacija, a to je uobicajeno pronalazenje krivca u "drugima" (imigrantima, crncima, jevrejima...). Zahteva se "cvrsta ruka", zbijanje redova oko "jednog vodje", strogo sprovodjenje "reda i zakona" (ne vazi za vodju) i ako se dozvoli nakon nekog vremena nuzno pokazuje fasizoidne tendencije.

"Bauk Surovikin linije. Svaka utvrđena linija se može probiti ako imaš s čim i znaš kako. Već sam pisao da je snaga te linije u organizaciji obrane. Pa da malo prostudiramo od čega se sastoji obrana te ruske linije. Ovdje se najčešće spominju (i ne samo ovdje) minska polja. Iako su ona sastavni dio linije zajedno sa zmajevim zubima i rovovima, ona ne spadaju u obranu. Obranu čine vojnici pješaci, sa svim mogućim protuoklopnim sredstvima, pa artiljerija i zrakoplovstvo. Rusi su imali sve to. I to sve u velikom broju, ničega im nije nedostajalo. Iako su Ukrajinci uništavali naizgled puno skladišta streljiva nisu značajno onemogućili logističke pravce (GLOC). Taktika probijanja utvrđene linije (bilo koje) se sastoji od uništavanja obrane i sprječavanja opskrbe sa rezervama i streljivom. Linije se ne mogu probiti dok se obrana značajno ne smanji. A u tome treba krenuti od najudaljenijih stražnjih linija prema prednjim linijama. Znači prvo treba riješiti zrakoplovstvo, ako ga nije moguće uništiti onda ga udaljiti iz zone da ne može borbeno djelovati (A2AD). Rusi su ljetos puno koristili helikoptere za uništavanje ukrajinskog oklopa. Ni jednom helikopteru se ne bi smjelo dozvoliti približavanje prednjoj liniji na udaljenosti da može borbeno djelovati. F-16 je sposoban obaviti takve zadaće sa odgovarajućim naoružanjem. Zatim, slijedeća je artiljerija. Ne mora biti baš svaki top, haubica ili minobacač uništen, ali se djelovanje artiljerije mora smanjiti da kada krene napad ne mogu pokriti sve ciljeve. Za ovo koristiti sve, F-16, M270, HIMARS, artiljerija velikog dometa i dronovi, a to možeš samo ako imaš dovoljno streljiva. Nakon toga ide se protiv ATGM položaja, dronovi, artiljerija, minobacači su sasvim dovoljni za ovaj zadatak. Ni zrakoplovstvu nije zabranjeno djelovanje po tim ciljevima ako se prije uništi PZO u blizini. Opet puno streljiva. Na kraju ide uništavanje pješaštva sa istovremenim čišćenjem prolaza u minskim poljima. Za to se koriste oklopno mehanizirane snage. Tenkovi sa valjcima za čišćenje mina, dronovi za čišćenje mina ili M58 MICLIC. Sve to uz stalnu artiljerijsku podršku i stalno djelovanje dronova po pješaštvu da ne može izvući neki ATGM i pucati na bilo koje oklopno sredstvo. Cijelo vrijeme se vrši izviđanje dronovima po dubini, prati se svako kretanje pojačanja i djeluje po njima prije nego stignu do prednjih linija. Isto tako se djeluje na sredstva EW, njih je lako otkriti triangulacijom jer su izvori EM zračenja. Borba protiv neprijateljskih dronova je najbolja ako se napada operatere, a njihovu lokaciju izdaju primopredajnici za komunikaciju sa dronovima. Obje strane već pokušavaju takvu vrstu borbe protiv dronova. Opet ni svo se pješaštvo ne treba uništiti potpuno, dovoljno je samo ga onesposobiti da ne može djelovati po oklopu i svojim pješaštvom prođeš u transporterima u pozadinu neprijatelja. Svejedno je jeli minsko polje 100 m ili par kilometara, postupak je isti. Za ovo je potrebna dobro obučena vojska za koordinirano djelovanje. Rusi nijednom nisu pokazali da su sposobni za ovakva borbena djelovanja. Nedostatak obučenosti nadoknađuju masom. Zadnji put smo to vidjeli u borbama za Avdivku, ali nisu se puno razlikovale ni borbe za Bahmut i prije toga. Rusi mogu izgubiti 300-400 tenkova i transportera, desetine tisuća vojnika, da probiju prednju liniju ali si Ukrajina ne može to dozvoliti. Sve ovo što sam naveo zahtijeva puno sredstava i streljiva. Ako artiljerija treba pogoditi npr. 10000 ciljeva za izvršenje proboja ne može ih gađati mjesecima. To mora biti izvršeno u najkraćem mogućem roku, dan ili 2 max. Onda se lako izračuna koliko treba i kojeg streljiva i koliko cijevi za taj zadatak. Kada se izvrši proboj onda se u dubokoj pozadini ide lijevo ili desno da se okruže neke snage koje je najlakše okružiti i potpuno uništiti. Rusi nikada nisu uspjeli napraviti takav proboj. Do sada su uspijevali presjeći neke komunikacijske pravce i dijelove ukrajinske vojske dovesti u nepovoljan položaj na vrlo malim prostorima od nekih 5-6 km jer se Ukrajinci nisu povlačili na vrijeme. Ukrajinci isto nisu uspijevali u tome jer su Rusi jako brzo bježali kao što se dogodilo kod Iziuma, Limana i Hersona." nulakuna

Samo jos da stavim na jedno mesto delove mozaika, koji po meni pokazuju da je nesto trulo u drzavi USA ***, pa cu prestati da vas davim sa statistikama i ostaviti na miru da procenjujete sanse za dobijanje istorijski sveodlucujucih izbora za 8 meseci (a i nakon toga za sledece, cija kampanja pocinje odmah nakon zavrsenih).

Svaka od navedenih tacaka potkrepljuje u izvesnoj meri pocetnu tezu. Car je go, ali show must go on. 1. The United States has the largest known prison population in the world, it has 5% of the worlds population, and 20% of the worlds incarcerated persons. In 2023, over five million people are under supervision by the criminal justice system, with nearly two million people incarcerated in state or federal prisons and local jails. Vlasnici privatnih zatvora se raduju svakom novom zatvoreniku i lobiraju da ih bude sto vise. 2. Health Insurance Coverage in the United States - 8.4% or 27.6 million Americans of all ages did not have health insurance in 2022 compared to 10.3% or 33.2 million in 2019. - In the same time period, 4.2% or 3 million children did not have health insurance compared with 5.1% or 3.7 million in 2019.

Gun Violence In 2021, the most recent year for which complete data is available, 48,830 people died from gun-related injuries in the U.S., according to the CDC. Every year, 117,345 people are shot. Among those: - 42,654 people die from gun violence - 76,725 people survive gunshot injuries Every year, 7,957 children and teens are shot in the United States. Among those: - 2,029 children and teens die from gun violence - 6,294 children and teens survive gunshot injuries In 2022, the total number of guns produced for the U.S. market reached 494 million. Vlasnici firmi koje proizvode oruzje su veoma profitirali na ovome (i uspesno lobiraju). 5. Opioid epidemic From 1999 to 2020, nearly 841,000 people died from drug overdoses, with prescription and illicit opioids responsible for 500,000 of those deaths.

Racism in the United States Racism has been reflected in discriminatory laws, practices, and actions (including violence) against "racial" or ethnic groups throughout the history of the United States. Since the early colonial era, White Americans have generally enjoyed legally or socially sanctioned privileges and rights which have been denied to members of various ethnic or minority groups at various times. European Americans have enjoyed advantages in matters of education, immigration, voting rights, citizenship, land acquisition, and criminal procedure. The election of President Donald Trump in 2016, who was a chief proponent of the birther movement which is considered by many to be racist and has a history of speech and actions that have been widely viewed as racist or racially charged, has been viewed by some commentators as a racist backlash against the election of Barack Obama. During the mid-2010s, American society has seen a resurgence of high levels of racism and discrimination. One new phenomenon has been the rise of the "alt-right" movement: a white nationalist coalition which seeks the expulsion of sexual and racial minorities from the United States. Since the mid-2010s, the Department of Homeland Security and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have identified white supremacist violence as the leading threat of domestic terrorism in the United States. 10. Paid time off If you’re a small business in the U.S., you’re not required to provide paid time off (PTO) to your employees. Twenty-eight million Americans don’t get any paid vacation or paid holidays. Nearly a third (31%) of U.S. employees do not have access to PTO Over half (52%) of employees report working while on PTO Over 765 million vacation days have gone unused by Americans The average American worker gets 11 days of paid vacation per year On average, U.S. workers get eight days of sick leave per year The average employee in the U.S. receives an average of 7.6 paid holidays Men and women are entitled up to eight weeks of parental leave per child In 2018, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that only 17% of companies offered paid parental leave and 89% offered unpaid. Why U.S. Vacation Policies Are So Much Worse Than Europe’s 11. Socioeconomic mobility in the United States In recent years, several studies have found that vertical intergenerational mobility is lower in the US than in some European countries. A 2013 Brookings Institution study found income inequality was increasing and becoming more permanent, sharply reducing social mobility. One study (“Do Poor Children Become Poor Adults?") found that of nine developed countries, the United States and United Kingdom had the lowest intergenerational vertical social mobility with about half of the advantages of having a parent with a high income passed on to the next generation. Nobel Prize-winning economist Joseph Stiglitz contends that "Scandinavian countries changed their education systems, social policies and legal frameworks to create societies where there is a higher degree of mobility. That made their countries more into the land of opportunity that America once was." 12. Ne-zastita od otkaza Unlike here, there are no laws in the USA that regulate termination. In plain language, this means that the company boss can exercise his right to fire an employee at any time. The termination is then valid with immediate effect. 13.
