No US warning to Ballistic strikes on Ukraine - Update

Sky News:  Reports in its 9.06am post the following, " Zelenskyy: Ukraine had 'no early warning from partners' over major overnight strikes by Russia "

Let's Get Real:

This Trump again pleasing Russia and no worries about the Ukraine people.  When WINTER comes the poor people of the Ukraine will freeze to death while Trump will be in the warmth of Florida.  The coalition of the willing need to help the Ukraine, more Patriot missiles to defend the Country, and thinking outside the box by placing troops in Country. The Ukraine cannot be the Czechoslovakia of 1938, we all know what leads to in the future.

Trump states that he blocked Russian sanctions as to keep Russia in TALKS - Update

BBC News: Reports" US President Donald Trump has said his decision to suspend several Russian sanctions is an effort to keep Moscow at the negotiating table. "

Let's Get Real:

The above is a lie that Trump has come up due to the political backlash he received on making a diesel deal with Russia before the Mid Terms, the Russian diesel will only last for a day, the real problem in the Iran War that Trump started and does not have the guts to follow through.  The Mid Terms should be a nightmare for Republicans, the House should go Democratic, even the Senate is at risk.  Then after we should see the 2028 cycle start, it takes time to rise the money for the campaign.

Ukrainian Satellite links restorted - Update

 

Guardian: Reports the following, " Zelenskyy thanks Trump for resumed intelligence sharing after US Starlink ‘message’ "

Let's Get Real:

At least Trump has restored the Satellite links that allow the Ukraine Army to battle the Russian threat, the blowback in the media was even to much for Trump, thus he has done a deal that allows the selling of Russian diesel to the US, the money will fund the Russisan war effort, while the Ukrainian Army is pushing the Russians back with Drones.  The Ukraine - Russian WAR is endless, it has lasted longer tha WW1.  Why can't we have Woodrow Wilson in the White House a racist yes, but at least on the Allied side, instead we have erratic Trump! 2028 can't come soon enough for this blogger.

Trump gives waivers to Russia over sanctions - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " Donald Trump has blocked numerous sanctions on Russia two days before they were due to take effect, as a row with his Ukrainian counterpart Volodymyr Zelensky deepens. "

Let's Get Real:

The blocking of Russian sanctions shows that Trump is a Russian puppet, as President Zelensky has pointed out Trump favourite people are tyrants, Russia, North Korea, why do something that gains you little support in the United States and only extreme MAGA followers support.  How does this end, a friend has suggested that Trump will use his emergency powers, as when the US is in a nuclear war with Russia, to state that the elections in November were illegal and a fraud, this declare himself the sole power in the US, this blog thinks that this is extreme outcome.   The most likely scenario is that the Democrats take the House and Senate, if narrow win, then you have Trump using his VETO power, the cycle will start with the 2028, and the Ukraine people must fight on and wait for a POTUS who is sane.

Zelensky feels betrayed by Trump - Update

Guardian:  Reports the following, " Volodymyr Zelenskyy feels ‘betrayed’ by Donald Trump over Starlink access...Ukrainian president accused US president of picking the other side after four years of war "

Let's Get Real:

The above will make Trump furious, he hates it when someone is critical of him, its not just politics its costing Ukrainian lives.  The Liberal Media in this case will blast the remarks of Zelensky across the US, Trump will be seen as appeasing Putin and hurting the Ukraine and its people, one hopes Reagan Republicans will start to attack Trump, POTUS can only carry so much water for Putin! When the Democrats take control of Congress they can start to curb the excess of Trump! Then we have the 2028 Presidential cycle starting, Trump will hate being a lame duck President, the press will be covering the 2028 cycle.


President Zelensky MEETS PM Burnham and the King - Update

Daily Mail: Reports that President Zelensky has meet the King and the Prime Minister.

Let's Get Real:

The Prime Ministet stated in the House of Commons that he sees himself as a bridge between Ukrain and the Trump Oval.  All the rhetoric since Boris Johnson has been good and supportive. This is the time for action, time to Shame the US and Trump, the President has failed to learn the lessons of Presidents Woodrow Wilson and FDR, he is supporting the wrong side.  If UK troops went in to the Ukraine then this would shame US and its people, do they want to be late for the party as they were in 1917 and 1941.  This is a time for resolve, not hot air of words.

Its a No from Russia when it comes to Energy Ceasfire - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 1.29pm the following, " The  Kremlin said ‌the provisions of a ​Russia-Ukraine energy ceasefire had not been established and contacts continue. "

Let's Get Real:

This is Russia playing along with Trump, they mean NO, but will play on , in till they get major victory of allowing the Ukrainian people to die of cold in the Winter.  Trump is a puppet of Putin, we will only see a change if the Democrats take the House and Senate in November.  Then the 2028 Presidential cycle starts!! 

Trump White House Restriction on Intelligence to the Ukraine - Update

BBC News: Reports the following, " Speed restrictions on the key Starlink communications network have disrupted Ukraine's battlefield "missions", President Volodymyr Zelensky's adviser has warned. "

Let's Get Real:

One does not have to be a cynic or conspiracy theorist to see the hand of Trump in this development, he can't stop US sharing intelligence with the Ukraine, the blow back would be to much even for Trump.  Thus he gets Mr Musk to restrict how his satellite works, Trump does not care about the Ukrainian people, all he cares about is getting hundreds of thousands tone of diesel from Russia before the Mid Terms.  The Republicans in the Senate  should make it clear to Trump that they will support Impeachment process if he does not play ball with the Ukraine.   It is like if Woodrow Wilson had supported the Kaiser in 1917 and not the Allies.

Ukraine will strike Russia's energy sources if they carry strikes on Ukraine Energy sources - Zelensky

Guardian: Reports the following, " Zelenskyy vows to retaliate if Russian strikes on Ukraine’s power grid continue. "

Let's Get Real:

The Trump Energy ceasefire came from nowhere, it seems neither Putin or Zelensky agreed beforehand, Zelensky stated that he will agree but will hit Russian energy sources if Putin carries on with his attacks.  The West  and Canada have been critical of Trump and his energy ceasfire, it is Appeasement to the level of Neville Chamberlain in 1938.  The Ukraine is modern Czechoslovakia, the West should send troops in to the Ukraine, that would stop Putin games, where is the Churchill of today,  the West needs to be resisting Putin and support the Ukraine.


2nd Houthi Strike on Saudi Arabia Airport -

BBC  News:  Reports "   One person has been killed and 11 injured in a second strike on the international airport in the Saudi capital Riyadh, officials have said. "

Let's Get Real:

The US should support Saudi Arabia should it react to this double ATTACK by  the Houthi of Yemen who support Iran.  This is a fundamental threat to the Western economy, higher the price oil, the more customer has to pay at petrol stations, thus increase in inflation,  its a vicious circle, the West in the shape of the US and UK should be part of any military action.

New US plan to solve the Ukrainian War - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 7.24am post the following, "  US to present 'new proposal' in talks with Ukraine today " 

Let's Get Real:

The new plan will benefit Russia, one can say that before the plan is released, the Trump Oval is the puppet of President Putin, the plan is always the same, Ukraine will have to give concessions to Russi!  Trump must have the state of mind that great powers deal, and small countries have to obey, this is not the Yalta conference of 1945, when the US and UK gave major concessions to the then USSR.   The Kyiv Government has a VETO, its cards are the coalition of the willing countries that support the Ukraine.  One awaits but without hope that Trump finally get the message, Modern Russia is not the USSR! Its 2026 not 1945.

35 killed in Kramatorsk, Ukraine - Update

Sky News: Reports in its  7.13pm post the following, " Number killed in Kramatorsk today rises to 35 after evening strike hits car "

Let's Get Real:

The War in the Ukraine is at a deadlock phase, very much like in 1918 and the First World War, it took the arrival of the Americans under General Pershing to smash the Germans, at least Woodrow Wilson acted, Trump does nothing, he is never critical of Putin and the Russians, Wilson had run for a 2nd term on the US keeping out of WW1, when he acted it was decisive, Trump does nothing.  The American people support a leader, JFK and Reagan are great examples of this, Trump is so afraid of Putin that he is seen as a puppet of the Russian Leader.  If the Oval acted it would frighten Putin.

Bulgarian PM warns of escalation - Update

Sky News: Reports in its 11.27am post the following, " Risk of global conflict,' Bulgaria's prime minister warns, after 'unacceptable' attack " on 2 ships in Bulgarian waters.

Let's Get Real:

The Russians are pushing their options before winter, they are trying to destroy the energy sector in the Ukraine, the want the poor people of the Ukraine to freeze to death, or starve to death!  The Coalition of the willing has to up its game, this blog has stated that the UK should place troops in Ukraine, draw a line in the sand, this far and no further, before Russia attacks Poland or the Baltic States, a bully has to be stopped before it leads to WW3.  This is the time for action not faint hearts.

The Destruction of Kyiv - Mayor - Update

BBC News: Reports " Intensified Russian drone and missile strikes are "tearing Kyiv apart", the mayor of Ukraine's capital has warned "

Let's Get Real:

The Russians are trying to destroy the heart of Kyiv, as much as the US tried to destroy the Capital of North Vietnam, it did not work as Vietnam was fighting for unification, Kyiv is fighting for the survival as a democracy, it cannot be allowed to surrender, as the whole of Easter Europe would come under threat.  Western Europe has to defend the Ukraine or we all under threat.  The US is a shaky ally under Trump, Europe should be united in its defence of Kyiv and the Ukraine.

Putin threat ovet Kalingrad Fears - Update

BBC News: Reports "  Vladimir Putin has said Russia will use all weapons at his disposal if it considers its Baltic exclave of Kaliningrad to have come under direct attack. "

Let's Get Real: 

This is Putin placing logs on the fire just in case he wants to invade Poland or the Baltic States over the next year.  Putin could use made up incident in Kaligrad. This is the phony war period of WW2, it is building now for Putin to take action in 2026 or 2027, he needs Trump in the Oval to appease him and for NATO to surrender.  The crisis is coming and it will be very cold.

Estonian Incident - Update

BBC News:  Reports " Russia was behind an arson attack on an Estonian defence company in the capital Tallinn last month, authorities say. "

Let's Get Real:

The Russian FSB has been busy in Germany, and Eastern Europe, various sabotage events from a attempted drone strike at a German Airport and the above.  The Russians are pushing the envelope to see how NATO acts and what they do to counter Russian actions.  The CIA Director visited Moscow to warn them off attacking Poland or the Baltic States at the end of the year, Putin wants to pressure Western Europe to stop supporting the Ukraine in their war with Russia.  The conflict with Russia is coming folks, the road has been set, the failure of the West through Appeasement of Putin has the powers in a conflict down the road.

US will win one way or another in Iran - Trump - Update

Guardian: Reports in its 8.05pm post the following, " Trump says US will win war with Iran: 'It’s going to be one way or the other' "

Let's Get Real:

Trump language is always its going to be big, total destruction or Iran will make a deal, and it always ends in the same in failure, one wonders if Trump has ever read a book on Presidential history, JFK and Reagan took the blame when things went wrong, Bay of Pigs or Iran - Contra affair.  These were Presidents lead by inspiring rhetoric and deeds! Trump just waffles and waffles and lies.  If POTUS wants to win in Iran, he had to send in ground troops, the American people like winners not losers! Trump is a major loser! 

A Job not Benefits - Update

BBC News: Reports " The chancellor has warned against allowing Britain's benefits bill to balloon while not offering young people opportunities. "

Let's Get Real:

The Chancellor of the Exchequer could be Conservative, the problem is that the Labour backbenchers will never cut the welfare budget, they refused under Sir Keir Starmer, what will be they like after the budget, its either tax hikes or more borrowing, we haven't come to the promised increase in the defence budget, what if Russia invades a NATO country, that would mean that any talk about social care will be thrown in to the long grass! It's the unexpected events that throw you off course, and WW3 is such an event.  The Labour Government has not got the people ready for war, its coming folks.  Putin needs a diversion from the Ukraine, he has to get the timing right, he needs Trump in the Oval, an appeaser of the 1st order.

Real Star Wars is here - Update

BBC News: Reports " The US has confirmed it deployed a space weapon in Earth's orbit, the first time it has acknowledged such offensive capabilities. "

Let's Get Real:

It here folks, the real Star Wars, the US has admitted that it has a weapon is SPACE, one can expect Russia and China to follow suit, even if they have not done so already.  PEOPLE laughed at President Reagan and his SDI, are they laughing now?  This is the future folks, Space Warfare, in less the powers can agree not to place weapons in Space.

Russian DRONE hits Ukrainian traine near Polish border - Update

BBC News: Reports " A Russian drone has hit a train near the Ukraine-Poland border shortly after former UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson and top European security officials had passed through. "

Let's Get Real:

The Russians are taking more risks, they want to draw in NATO, as the article notes the attack was 2 miles from the Polish border, and was a threat to past and present European leaders.  The Russian Bear is coming, its crawling on its belly but it is coming, the next attack could be on NATO ground, then what, would NATO do, take action or would Trump appease Putin, the Kremlin needs Trump in the Oval, the 2028 cycle starts after the Mid Terms in November, an East Wing is coming as Sherlock Holmes stated to Doctor Warson.
