Russia’s patience with Ukrainian President Zelensky has run out, suggesting a full-scale military escalation, including decapitation strikes, infrastructure destruction, and targeting of foreign-supported drone networks, may soon follow.
Russia Finally Loses Patience
Ukraine’s nasty little dictator is beating his chest over what Western mainstream media is calling the most brilliant military operation since 300 Spartans held off the Persian Empire. The so-called “Spider Web” sabotage efforts deep in Russian territory are, according to old British generals, the next leap forward in warfare. However, reading the words of Dmitry Medvedev, we see the man who can say what the pragmatic statesman Vladimir Putin cannot, and we can find hints at what is about to take place. To quote directly from the Deputy Chairman of the Security Council of Russia on Telegram as he addressed all those curious as to what’s next:
“To all who are worried and expecting retribution. Don’t fret; it’s normal to be apprehensive. So yes, retribution is inevitable. Take a pause and remember this. Our Army still advancing and will continue to advance. And be assured, everything that must explode will certainly explode, and those who must be exterminated will disappear.”
The former Russian president and prime minister went on to say the Istanbul talks are essentially useless, since Zelensky and his handlers have no intention of attending to Russia’s concerns. Medvedev reasserted that the way to peace is a speedy Russian victory and the destruction of the neo-Nazi government in Ukraine. A conversation between U.S. President Donald Trump and President Putin the other day confirms that the Americans understand Russia will retaliate and that the current peace discussions are useless.
After all the diplomatic manoeuvring by Western leaders, the initial reason for the military operation remains paramount. For Zelensky’s part, he says agreeing to Russia’s terms means capitulation or surrender. And for those serious about ending this conflict, this is precisely what needs to happen. Ukraine must surrender while there are still any conditions left in Kyiv’s favor.
The Coming Storm
Now let’s look at some bitter realities for Zelensky and Co. First, President Putin has been reluctant to obliterate large sections of Kyiv and other cities. Where war is concerned, he’s handled the Slavic brothers in Ukraine with kid gloves. However, my knowledge of the man tells me he realises he did his best, and it’s a new day. Here’s what may happen in the days and weeks to come.
Ukraine has twenty-three airfields from which military operations might take off. The largest of these is Air Station Kulbakyne, one of the few operational ones. You can see what looks like five SU27 fighters sitting on the tarmac there via Google Earth. At Myrhorod Air Base, Google satellite imagery reveals what is likely the largest concentration of advanced fighters remaining in Ukraine. There appear to be twenty or more Su27s on the ground there. Given this base is only 200km from the Russian border, I am amazed there are any aircraft at all still operational there. Doing the light math, let’s assume the Russians launch an attack on these bases and communication centres like the one in February 2022. The Ukrainian Air Force could soon cease to exist, including the bases where unmanned aircraft take off from.
Now, let’s turn to rail traffic. The main rail hubs in Ukraine are Lviv, Kyiv (Kyiv-Pasazhyrskyi and Darnytsia), Odesa, Kharkiv, and Dnipro. A look at the satellite view of Lviv station reveals a universal truth about all large rail yards. There are choke points at either end of the main junction. A series of missile, drone, or sabotage strikes at all these stations would put Ukraine’s rail transport at a standstill. Other smaller hubs could also be targeted, as well as repair facilities and other similar locations. To compound the rail stoppage strategy, the destruction of key bridges in Ukraine would be a force multiplier. Over three hundred bridges have already been destroyed during this conflict. However, key bridges are still standing, some of which would serve as key reinforcement or supply points for Ukraine to defend cities like Odessa. For instance, blowing up the Kyivske Hwy Bridge and the P70 Rd Bridge to Zatoka would cause significant problems. Other Dnister River bridges knocked out would bring traffic to a standstill in these areas. But you get the point. Russia has a lot more ballistic, cruise, and hypersonic weapons than Ukraine has key strike points.
And what about Zelensky? No one in the West seems to have had much trouble talking about eliminating Vladimir Putin. From my perspective, I am amazed that the comedian-turned-Winston Churchill has not already had a brake failure on his car or a piano fall on his head. Of course, the Russians must refrain from using the world’s deadliest nerve agents against Zelensky since we know none of those worked on other alleged targets. I am sure a Spetsnaz sniper with a 7.62×54mmR Dragunov could easily initiate a call for a new Ukrainian election. Given Mr. Medvedev’s tone, I predict an Oresnik missile payload on whatever holds the little Hitler is hiding in. And lest we forget, Ukraine is second only to France in Europe in terms of the amount of power it generates from nuclear energy. But Russia would never target a nuclear power plant. However, downing key switch points and power lines is another story.
USAID and the Soros Projects
Now, we come to the most interesting and perhaps important list of targets the Russians will probably eliminate. On the drone warfare front where we find the most interesting Russophobic bedfellows. Looking at one of Ukraine’s most effective military drone makers, we find supported Wild Hornets wall–to-wall with CIA spooks, USAID and George Soros minions, and the same Nazis Mr. Putin originally intended to eradicate. Here are just a few of the NGOs and the people behind them that let us know foreign agencies are neck-deep in killing Russians.
The supporters of the alleged non-profit Wild Hornets can be seen in the crowdfunded munitions operation’s “X” follows. One key partner of the Ukraine drone producer is none other than Oleksandr Bondarenko, who is Co-founder of the Svyatoslav the Brave Foundation. Dondarenko is probably the key connection to where the drones are being manufactured and to the most significant sources of “donations” to the cause. The CIA groomed Bondarenko via USAID and is the man behind the NOVO industrial parks (see social media), where manufacturing drones can be decentralized. Next, we have the hacktivist organization called InformNapalm, which unabashedly applauds Zelensky’s triumphs, covers his corruption and failures, and actively attempts to hack and disrupt Russian targets.
The list of entities supporting Wild Hornets also includes the private company Nova Post, whose express services likely distribute war drones from scattered production facilities across Ukraine. Some weeks back, the Odessa hub of Nova Post was struck by Russian drones, according to co-founder Viacheslav Klymov. So, the Russians already know how drones made at dozens of locations in civilian zones get dispersed to Azov Nazis and other regiments. Looking down the long list of these killer drone projects is not only impressive but scary if one considers the kind of money being thrown at promoting Russophobia in Ukraine, Georgia, and other CIS countries.
Andriy Pavlovych is one name that stands out for his work in creating a kind of Ukrainian “Hitler Youth” network, otherwise known as the SALTO Eastern Europe and Caucasus Resource Centre. This NGO gets support from our familiar evil billionaire, George Soros. Whichever direction one chooses to follow, branching out from Wild Hornets, the killer drones project, the Council of Europe, British Foreign Office proxies, and especially German interests are easily found (PDF). The list, the depth, the all-encompassing efforts of the liberal order in all this is astonishing. A last mention, the Open Government Partnership, is in the process of transforming the world we live in into a kind of George Soros hive construct. (see Soros Foundation Kazakhstan)
Targets, Targets, Targets!
As you can see, Russia has a heck of a lot of targeting choices if this special military operation is to be successful. Also, consider that Wild Hornets is not the largest drone-producing and delivery operation in Ukraine. Here’s a list that is mind-boggling via Kyiv Independent. It’s essential to take note of the people standing behind these producers as well. VYRIY is the largest and partners with all the individuals and entities Wild Hornet does. The company that makes the most drones for deploying loitering munitions has two headquarters—one in Kyiv and the other in San Francisco. Like every otter tentacle of the monster manipulating Ukraine against Russia, digging a bit deeper provides insight into the unimaginable asymmetrical total war being waged against the Russians.
As a last example, key supporters of VYRIY include some of the most critical Euromaidan coup agents and agencies. The Dignitas Foundation proudly displays its role in the 2014 overthrow of the elected government of Ukraine. To quote from the website of this organizaton:
“One of Dignitas Ukraine’s co-founders, Lyuba Shipovich, co-founded Razom for Ukraine in 2014, which brought together passionate volunteers in the U.S. and beyond.”
Further investigations reveal a humongous web of money trails, deep state operators, and a larger controlling entity that belongs in a James Bond film. It’s as if people like George Soros and Rothschild minions have created a massive army of Russia-hating zombies. The fact Lyuba Shipovich is directly linked to ousted Georgian lunatic Mikheil Saakashvili, the neo-Nazi paramilitary Right Sector USA, Razom for Ukraine, the Ukrainian Congress Committee of America (UCCA), and George Soros is a damning conclusion for this report.
Finally, while I am sure Mr. Medvedev is serious about Russia seeing to it that everything that needs to blow up gets blown up, I do not have the clearance to know if President Putin’s military has so many drones, cruise, hypersonic, and ballistic missiles to get the job done properly. It seems to me President Putin may soon declare a state of war between Russia and Ukraine, and the wiggle room is just running out. Perhaps there never was another choice.
