Opening paragraphs:
"In light of recent developments, a slight update is needed here. First,
Russia has demonstrated its latest weaponry, which is both cheap and effective
and largely neutralizes anything the US is able to throw at it. Most recently,
Putin announced the new Zirkon delivery system which flies at speeds above Mach
20 and cannot be intercepted by any means, either existing or imaginable. Putin
also announced that in case the US attacks Russia, Russia will counterattack
not just the launch sites but the sites where the decision to attack Russia
will be made. "Question is, can they [the Americans] do the math?" he
asked. The answer is no: all I've heard from the US since then has been
preposterous talk about a "new arms race." There is no recognition at
all that the arms race is over and that Russia won it. So I did the math
myself, and have discovered a very simple, obvious fact: if the US launches a
first strike against Russia, its leaders will not be around to find out whether
any of their missiles or bombs got through and reached their targets within
Russia; they will all be dead well before then. But there is no reason for
Americans to fear Russia, for Russia will not attack. Instead, they should fear
their own leaders, who may be insane and ignorant enough to attempt a
preemptive strike against Russia—and fail. What can Americans usefully do in
this situation? Unfortunately, there is but a single, very short answer:
repent—just in case their leaders do the suicidal thing, for if that happens
they won't get any warning."
For me, this is the definitive quote:
"And so, most of the recent American warmongering
toward Russia can be explained by the desire to find anyone but oneself to
blame for one’s unfolding demise."
Yes, the rest of the world is a foolish bunch of greedy goons for the most part. A crazy snake circus. But the USA, well, it is special. It thinks it is the Black Knight. Sadly, it is probably right:
