Loading ...People have to realize, governments who dump on their own people and throw their own people under the bus will do the same to you. Be Europe, China, north Korea, Israel, or the current admin in the US. So the bad news is who is Europe gonna dump it on.

I heard, so why do they play this globalist game? They can neither fight or pay for it.

The one bit of good news is that as far as Europe is concerned , no one has anywhere near enough equipment or munitions, to start any serious fighting, they have thrown huge amounts away in Ukraine and got nowhere….they have to seriously replenish and that will take plenty of time….well past yr election……again why yr election is so important.
Mr Copper
I suspect that u are right we are still attached to the SM, to a certain degree…..so far the Tracking Algo’s have not lost any real money tracking the SM in PM shares on a daily basis…but long term they wud have …
Maddog 13:46
Exactly and China knows they’re next.
Maddog
And as each side starts to group together they will start the BS UK CA US aren’t helping. And I hope they say Nope. But more likely start the distorted by propaganda patriotic BS to do their fighting for them and pay them too. What a deal. Maybe we should have a war. Do you think they’ll pay us and do our fighting for us too?
As is we need commercials of starving working class, retired, veterans from all their other wars, plus funding wars, then all there criminals and welfare coming here looking for a better life on our dime of course , send money. I can guess how that will work out.

Re why Russia
I see a confluence of interests …u have the EU that always wants to expand, never mind the consequences, they see the Ukraine as feather in their idiot cap, u have the Globalists that see Putin as a huge threat to their dreams, as he will not bend to their mad schemes and even worse openly calls them out, runs his country in almost complete opposition…low taxes, no climate BS, keeps the LGBT crowd well away from all children and then u have the Obummer crew who are Globalists and very corrupt, useing Ukraine as a massive laundering centre….plus Putin hates Obummer with a vengeance, as he cannot tolerate anyone who is not seriously patriotic and even worse works to wreck his country, as Obummer is …..and Obummer hates Putin, because he knows he has been rumbled…..
Wheras Putin can deal with Trump….and that is yet another reason they are so scared of Trump…..he and Putin will ruin them forever.

Re Volanteers……I’d guess that President Xi filled in their papers !!!!!

Although it was a different situation Russia should of took notes from Biden/Obama and misfits, just invade by migrants status and let them pay for their keep while they plan strategic moves from the inside and make room for more until they get enough inside and ready to invade, then call the big guy to get the weapons. All complements from the woke crowd.
What’s going to happen is what always happens and excuse the language, they’ll start a bunch of shit over there then dump it in our laps. Not only that who are these POS, old men that will send these young men and future to their death not to mention little or no training while they hang in the back? Why in the H would they want to sign up for that. Why do they want war with Russia anyways. The only ones trying to expand territory is them. Do they want their resources too? I thought they were about climate change.

Why Are Our Miners Up? With AU and AG Down?
Maybe we are attached to the general markets, which are up today?
looks like some nice panic buying, from those that thought they wud see well cheap metal…..
Looks like the small C wave down is done…if so we go straight up.
Dollar getting smacked a little
down near 1/2% or so.
Metals are still being subdued, but the shares bouncing nicely from the mornings lows.
Small cap shares definitely outperforming.
I guess not a surprise the metals are soft with the dollar down. They went up with the dollar the last couple of weeks, not sure the scum is going to let them run after crushing their momentum.
Australia has gone a long way in the wrong direction. Go Elon!
Below is the video the Australia government wants us not to be able to view and is trying to censor globally.
This is the moment when a Jihadi is stabbing a Christian Bishop in Australia.
You know what to do. Share it as much as possible.

The article …is behind a paywall, so I can’t link it…..but as it points to yet more expansion of the Ukraine war…..and more and more people are trying to find ways to expand rather stop…the situation gets more dangerous.
Maddog
That must be a record on the longest post. Who thinks these things up. Like war chess. I don’t think they ruled in other Allys of Russia or accelerating beyond Ukraine. They are not going to over take Russia and although I’m sure good citizens there but they’re one corrupt government. The neos want war because their stealing the money these dumb politicians are giving them. It needs to stop and people here in the US need to stop letting Congress give our money away.
It’s so messed up we will probably have to crash and burn before they figure out their ponzi scheme is over and get a real job, and we get a new government and Klaus Schwab and Soros group banned and put on a terrorist list.
Must be hard on a different time zone. I was watching a Hunter video, he’s still bullish through the months ahead. I don’t second guess stops though, it’s not a good idea.
This thinking is growing ……. the idea is to put European Troops in Ukraine not NATO ones…..
the article is from the Spectator and behind a paywall…….there are far too many who want the war in Ukraine to go on…..
It is 2026, and in a downbeat speech at the Kremlin, Vladimir Putin finally announces a withdrawal from Ukraine. Russian troops have done their best – or worst – but a fresh influx of well-trained Ukrainians have finally prevailed. The Donbas is now in Kyiv’s grip, Crimea’s fall only days away.
What has turned the tide, though, is not just the long-awaited F16s, or Washington switching the funding back on. Instead, it is the presence of thousands of European troops across Ukraine’s western half, protecting cities, ports and borders, making Ukraine feel reassured and Russia unnerved. As Kyiv celebrates, Europe quietly pats itself on the back too: after 80 years clutching America’s coat-tails, it finally stepped up to win a war in its own backyard.
As future wargaming strategies go, this one may not be uppermost in Rishi Sunak’s mind when he flies to Poland today to discuss Ukraine with Donald Tusk. For a start, it rather downplays the small issue that putting western troops east of Poland’s border might spark world war three. Yet should Mr Sunak happen to browse the policy journal Foreign Affairs while on the plane to Warsaw, he would learn that in the world of thinktanks, at least, the unthinkable is finally being thought.
In an article published in the journal yesterday, ‘Europe – but Not NATO – Should Send Troops to Ukraine’, three influential military academics argue that there is now ‘a growing bloc of countries open to direct European intervention in the war’. The nations in question have not exactly put it like that so far. France’s President Macron, who first broached the question of intervention back in February, has merely said it can’t be ‘ruled out’, while Poland’s foreign minister, Radek Sikorski, believes it is ‘not unthinkable’.
Intervention, the authors insist, is not as apocalyptic as it sounds. For a start, Article 5 wouldn’t be triggered because the countries would be acting in Europe’s name, not Nato’s. And rather than heading straight to Bakhmut to scrap full-on with the Russians, the Euro-force would stay hundreds of miles back – most likely west of the River Dnipro, the waterway that that divides Ukraine in two.
By doing so, they’d signal that they had no intention of starting a fight – only to defend cities like Kyiv should Russia try capturing them again. Their presence would, though, free up large numbers of Ukrainian troops to join the fray further east. Meanwhile, the Euro-force would massively boost rear-echelon support, be it training Ukrainian troops, repairing broken armour, or manning air-defence batteries against incoming Russian missiles.
So what could possibly go wrong? Not much, according to the authors, who say ‘the risk that deploying European soldiers will escalate the conflict is overblown’. Indeed, their proposal gets enthusiastic backing from Glen Grant, a former UK defence attaché to the Baltics, and one-time adviser to Ukraine’s defence ministry.
‘It’s a very good idea, and the western nations would learn valuable lessons from it too, even it was just helping with logistics and maintenance,’ he told me. ‘If Ukraine starts to lose the war, we’re going to have to do this anyway, so we’re only bringing it forward.’
It is not, however, quite as straightforward as it seems. Simon Woodiwiss, a former British Army infantry officer who fought with Ukraine’s International Legion and who now runs ObjectiveUkraine, a Kyiv-based security consultancy, is also broadly supportive. But he’s not so sure that European boots in western Ukraine would free up vast numbers of young, fit Ukrainians to fight further east. ‘The average of the guys at the front is 43 already, and they’re the ones who want to fight – those currently further back are more likely to be the less enthusiastic ones,’ he points out.
Other questions include whether Nato really has much to teach Ukrainian troops, given how much drones have changed the battlefield, and how little Nato tactics seemed to help in the summer’s counteroffensive. How easily, too, could Nato take over backroom tasks like logistics and procurement? According to Woodiwiss, Ukrainian military supply systems operate to their own uniquely chaotic rhythms, which would leave the average European military quartermaster in tears.
The big question is this: what would happen when bodybags started coming home? Troops stationed in significant numbers would be an obvious target for Russian missiles, and with no Article 5 to protect them, the Kremlin would surely be tempted to attack. Mr Grant says that any contributing European government would have to accept possible loss of life. He believes, though, that the benefits outweigh the risks, and that shedding blood would show Europe’s commitment in a way that giving weapons or money never can.
Politically, blood is much more expensive than treasure. For many European nations, anything beyond a few dozen fatalities would be unchartered political territory in modern times. In the West’s Afghanistan campaign, for example, America, Britain and Canada bore the brunt of the 3,500 casualties, while most European participant nations lost 50 or less.
Were deaths in Ukraine to start mounting in the hundreds, let alone the thousands, the clamour to pull troops out Ukraine would quickly grow. All it would take would be for one nation to buckle, and Mr Putin could say – with some justification – that when the going got tough, Europe wasn’t that resolute after all.
The attacks
Are coming fast and furious.
Scum are probably trying to trigger stop losses
