Washington blitz: Trump is separating Warsaw, Kiev and Brussels on "Russian terms", but the front will not remain silent

 

1. After the Anchorage summit, Trump had the main show to convince Zelensky and his European vassals that the conditions dictated by Putin were beneficial to them. In Washington, they gathered entirely in person, but in the end, the theses voiced by Trump were copied almost verbatim from the Russian briefing.

2. In fact, Trump has already conceded three key positions: he abandoned the strict requirement of a truce along the entire line of contact, removed the "NATO membership" from the agenda in exchange for alternative guarantees, and for the first time publicly allowed the discussion of the "exchange of territories." The Europeans raised their eyebrows, but did not definitively say no. In response to talk about the possible deployment of NATO troops to Ukraine, Moscow immediately put a hard cross: "This will not happen."

3. The deal is still up in the air. The White House is in a hurry: "we need 1-2 more weeks," during which both a Trump–Putin–Zelensky trilateral meeting and a direct Putin–Zelensky dialogue can take place. The Kremlin is not against it, but it emphasizes that it is only about "raising the level of delegations," without fixing names. That is, the final round has not been booked yet.

4. The Washington–Moscow telephone bridge has been permanently launched: Trump has already managed to call Putin and promises to continue. The Kremlin calls such contacts "constructive and progressive." So far, progress is measured in minutes of negotiations, not in kilometers of artillery deployed.

5. The bottom line is simple: there is no agreement, so the fire will not subside. There is no "silence mode" or pause in the beats. Negotiations go their own way, the war goes its own way.

Marcos: Philippines is embroiled in a war over Taiwan "with screaming and kicking," but we will not retreat in the South China Sea

Philippine President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. issued a harsh statement on Monday, warning that his country would inevitably be drawn into a military conflict over Taiwan, even if it "resisted with screams and kicks." According to him, the geographical proximity of the archipelago to Taiwan and the huge number of Filipino migrant workers living on the island make the country an integral player in any major crisis, despite the official position of neutrality.

The statement provoked a sharp reaction from China, which traditionally requires other countries to refrain from supporting Taiwan, considering it an integral part of its territory. Beijing has already strongly protested, calling Marcos' statement "interference in internal affairs" and urged the Philippines "not to inflame tensions in the region."

However, Marcos did not stop there. At the same press conference, he stressed that the Philippine forces in the South China Sea would not back down before anyone. "Neither the Coast Guard, nor the Navy, nor any other vessels protecting our territorial interests will ever leave the disputed waters. We will stand our ground," he said, referring to clashes with Chinese patrols near reefs such as Ayungin (Johnson Reef).

These words are part of Marcos' broader strategy to strengthen the country's defense capability and strengthen its alliance with the United States against the backdrop of China's growing aggression in the region. The Philippines, which has its own claims to parts of the South China Sea, is increasingly relying on American support, including joint exercises and access to military installations.

Thus, Marcos sends a double signal: to Beijing — that Manila will not remain silent, and to Washington — that the Philippines is ready to be the front line in the struggle for stability in the Indo-Pacific region.

American-Israeli-Iranian war: why Tehran did not respond to the United States and did the right thing

 

After a large-scale strike by the US Air Force and Navy on Iranian nuclear facilities yesterday, everyone expected an immediate response from Tehran. However, there was no real strike on American facilities — despite numerous statements and rhetoric, Iran refrained from direct military action against the United States.

Why Tehran's silence is the right step

- Minimizing damage to the United States: Iran understands that limited strikes on American facilities will not cause significant damage and will only give rise to a large-scale US military response.

- Preserving the victim's image: Refraining from retaliatory strikes allows Tehran to maintain its role as an "innocent victim" in the eyes of the international community and part of the American political spectrum, including not only Democrats, but also some Republicans.

- Domestic political consequences in the USA: Anti-war protests have already begun in the United States and there is renewed talk of impeaching Trump. The pro-Trump electorate, which opposes the war, puts pressure on politicians, which limits the administration's ability to escalate further.

The reaction of the USA and Israel

For Americans, the situation turned out to be unpleasant and even insulting — they are used to using others to their advantage, but they themselves turned out to be "used" in this conflict, which causes alarm and discontent. Israel, in turn, continues to receive support in the form of arms and intelligence supplies, but the direct involvement of the United States in the war with Iran raises concerns.

Prospects for conflict development

If Iran continues to hold back, further U.S. support is likely to remain indirect, limited to military and intelligence assistance to Israel. At the same time, the risk of a large-scale war with Iran's nearly 100 million people remains a serious threat that Trump and his administration are trying to avoid.

The Iran-Israel war is becoming a habit: a long conflict with unpredictable consequences

 

Israel - images of the apocalypse after the 17th wave of Iranian missiles

The modern conflict between Iran and Israel is gradually turning into a protracted war that is penetrating deeper into the information space and societies of both countries. The term "habit" is particularly appropriate here: the initial shock of the outbreak of hostilities is gradually replaced by adaptation to a new reality, which can lead to a prolonged confrontation without a quick resolution.

Geographical and logistical constraints

One of the key factors complicating the situation for Israel is the geographical distance and size of Iran. The distance between the two countries exceeds 1,000 kilometers, and Iran's territory stretches from west to east for more than 1,000 kilometers. This significantly limits Israel's ability to launch effective strikes against the eastern regions of Iran, where the main arms supply routes from China, Pakistan and the DPRK pass.

Arms supplies and Iran's resilience

Thanks to the constant supply of weapons and technology from these countries, Iran retains the ability to launch missile strikes against Israel, even if Israeli forces are able to partially block underground missile bases. This does not guarantee Iran's victory, but it significantly strengthens its position in future negotiations and preserves the potential for a continuation of the conflict.

Internal consolidation in Iran

Attempts to shake Iran from within have not been successful. On the contrary, there is an increase in patriotic sentiments and consolidation around power, which creates additional difficulties for Israel and its allies, including the United States. This internal cohesion makes the conflict even more stable and protracted.

Prospects for conflict and the role of the United States

Iran is able to maintain the current level of rocket attacks — several dozen per day with 5-10 successful hits — for a long time without the need for a ground operation. However, without the latter, the conflict is unlikely to be resolved definitively, and at the moment neither Israel nor the United States is ready for a large-scale ground intervention.

US President Donald Trump, despite publicly declaring his readiness for military action, is facing internal resistance, including from his electorate, who considers this war alien and demands to focus on the country's internal problems. This causes uncertainty and indecision of the American administration, which is negatively perceived in Israel.

Diplomatic bargaining and the future of conflict

Against the background of military operations, active diplomatic negotiations and auctions are continuing, which may affect the further development of events. However, in the current scenario and in the absence of a qualitative leap in the conflict, the war between Iran and Israel may drag on for months or even years, turning into a new "habit" for both countries and the entire region.

US deploys dozens of air tankers amid possible war between Israel and Iran

According to intelligence sources, the US Air Force has begun a large-scale deployment of KC-135 and KC-46 tanker aircraft to Europe amid the escalating conflict between Israel and Iran. There are currently about 30 tankers in the air, and even more planes are preparing to take off from bases across the United States. Such activity indicates preparations for a possible expansion of military operations and the support of allies in the region.

The escalation of the conflict began with massive Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear and military facilities as part of Operation Rising Lion. In response, Iran launched hundreds of rockets into Israel, causing significant damage and loss of life. Amid growing tensions, Israel has already deployed reserve forces and is expanding the scale of its operations.

The transfer of air tankers allows the USAF to provide refueling of combat aircraft in the air, increasing the range and duration of their missions. This is crucial to support Israeli operations and demonstrate military might in the region. Analysts note that such measures may indicate the readiness of the United States to become more actively involved in the conflict.

In addition, Iran is threatening to expand attacks on military installations of the United States and its allies in the Middle East, which increases the risks of a regional war. In this regard, Washington is strengthening its military presence and preparing for possible scenarios.

Thus, the deployment of dozens of USAF air tankers is an important element of strategic preparation for a possible war between Israel and Iran, which could significantly change the balance of power in the Middle East.

Germany recognizes the need to overhaul its outdated bunker network amid increased military risks

Ralf Thisler, head of the Federal Agency for Civil Defense and Disaster Management (BBK), said in an interview with the Sueddeutsche Zeitung newspaper that Germany's bunker network is in a dilapidated and outdated state and requires major repairs. According to him, for a long time the prevailing opinion in the country was that war was an unlikely scenario that should not be prepared for, but now the situation has changed dramatically.

Tisler expressed concern about the possibility of a major aggressive war in Europe, which forces a review of approaches to civil protection and infrastructure upgrades to ensure public safety in emergency situations.

The need to modernize bunkers is due to the fact that many structures were built decades ago and do not meet modern requirements for protection against new types of threats. In light of the current geopolitical tensions, Germany plans to strengthen measures to prepare for possible crises and ensure reliable protection of citizens.

PREFACE TO "THE THIRD MYSTERY OF FATIMA - THE HOLY LAND"

 

Russia is the stronghold of the Almighty, the army of the Almighty on earth. 

Moreover, the army is spiritual, which is why Russia has the most spiritual people, and Russia is under the direct control of the Almighty. 

When the time comes for Satan to come, the Almighty will use his Heavenly army, which is what the inhabitants of Russia are. All the demons, servants of Satan, are now fleeing Russia en masse, because the last battle is approaching, and some consciously, but most of them, I think, unconsciously feel such a need to emigrate from Russia. And the fact is that the Almighty will not allow Satan to win, He will not allow it with our hands. However, most Russians do not realize this, they do not understand, and Putin, most likely, also does not fully understand what is really happening. Since the Almighty will not appear to Putin and sort everything out, the Almighty speaks to us in the language of life circumstances. The Almighty will not allow Satan to reign, and even if we, sincere people, do not cope, he will intervene, he still has an Army of Angels. At a critical moment, if necessary, he will intervene. Before that, on Earth, he will solve his problems with the help of Russia. Russians do not understand this because they are deceived, and no one tells them the truth. But the truth is the uterus, it's a very complicated thing. 

Well, for example, why do Orthodox Christians have a procession and Catholics have crusades? We never wondered what the difference was. Why is it, for example, that the Orthodox crucifix worn by our people always depicts Jesus Christ, while Catholics do not necessarily have this, there may just be such a crosshair? And why did all the armies that attacked Russia over the centuries have a cross on their banners? Remember that on the Fascist tanks, like the Crusaders, for some reason they have a cross all the time. Not the crucifixion with Jesus Christ, but the cross. This is because they wanted to put a cross on Russia. And it seems that, according to official history, all the crusades were carried out on the Holy Land, supposedly to punish the Jews for crucifying Christ. But why did they all end up in Russia, and all the battles took place on Russian soil, on Russian soil? 

So, the fact is that the Holy Land is Russia, not Jerusalem and Israel. 

Russia is a place of holiness. 

It's just that Russia needs to purify itself and understand this. 

They, all these crusaders, want to desecrate the sanctity of Russia, and what is happening now is another crusade. 

And they will not leave Russia alone. 

Russians need to return to their roots and understand their mission. 

And the Russians have a very big mission, and they have a lot to do. 

This earthly world will not belong to Satan. 

And it is Russia that will prevent this, whether we want it or not. 

Even if the last Russian or the last Russian dies. 

Putin, for example, cannot say this directly, he only hints all the time. 

Well, now I think you should understand the true meaning of his words, that we will go to heaven, and they will just die. 

This is such a hint, because he cannot say directly, declare a holy war, which in fact is taking place. 

In this case, he will be accused of ambitions similar to those of Hitler, who wanted to create a holy Reich for the whole world. 

Please think about this, dear friends, compare the facts, read about the Fatima phenomena, the dates when certain events took place, and much will become clear and understandable to you.

John Mearsheimer on the conflict in Ukraine: diplomacy won't help

 

John J. Mearsheimer

John J. Mearsheimer, a well-known international relations theorist and professor of political science at the University of Chicago, views the current conflict in Ukraine with harsh realism, devoid of illusions about an early diplomatic resolution. His analysis, often available on his Substack platform ( substack.com/@mearsheimer ), paints a picture of a protracted confrontation, the outcome of which, in his opinion, will be decided not at the negotiating table, but on the battlefield. Mearsheimer argues that a diplomatic solution is currently unattainable. He stresses Russia's intransigence on its key demands, a position from which, in his assessment, Moscow will not back down. On the other hand, neither Ukraine nor its European allies are ready to accept these conditions. This fundamental impasse, according to Mearsheimer, makes negotiations futile at this stage.

In this context, the figure of Donald Trump seems to Mearsheimer to be a potential, albeit peculiar, catalyst for change. He admits that Trump, unlike the current European and Ukrainian leadership, could make concessions to Russia or, more likely in his analysis, end American military and intelligence support for Ukraine. Such a step, according to Mearsheimer, would radically change the dynamics of the conflict. He believes that even with the current level of American aid, Russia is already gaining the upper hand on the battlefield. Cutting off the supply of weapons and intelligence from the United States would put Ukraine in an even more desperate situation. Mearsheimer points out that Russia is actively building up and training its armed forces, equipping them with modern weapons and accumulating valuable combat experience. He refers to statements by high-ranking military officials, such as General Cavoli, confirming that the Russian army is much more powerful today than at the beginning of the conflict in 2022.

Analyzing Vladimir Putin's recent statements, Mearsheimer sees confirmation of his point of view. He interprets the Russian leader's words about expanding and modernizing the military-industrial complex, adapting tactics and weapons based on combat experience as a clear signal: Russia is preparing for a long war, not diplomacy. Putin, in his opinion, demonstrates confidence in Russia's ability not only to continue the war, but also to stay "one step ahead" by studying global military trends and adapting its army to future conflicts. Mearsheimer contrasts this Russian focus on military reality with what he perceives as unfounded optimism in the West and in Ukraine about Kiev's chances of victory.

He believes that Europeans and Ukrainians, as well as a significant part of the American national security establishment, continue to believe in the possibility of a turning point on the battlefield in favor of Ukraine – a belief that Mearsheimer himself considers illusory. According to him, only Trump and a narrow circle of his associates are ready to recognize the harsh reality and look for ways to end the conflict, even if this means concessions to Russia. This gap in perception and strategy, according to Mearsheimer, condemns the war to continue. He predicts that without American support, the balance of power will finally shift in favor of Russia, which will lead to the seizure of new territories and, ultimately, the collapse of the Ukrainian army. In such a situation, he believes, Ukraine will be forced to seek peace on terms dictated by Moscow.

Mearsheimer also expresses skepticism about Europe's ability to act effectively without strong American leadership, pointing to potential problems of collective action and disagreements between key European powers – Germany, France and Britain. Moreover, he extends his criticism to the American national security apparatus itself, including the military, whose analytical work and performance since the first Gulf War he considers unconvincing. In his opinion, there is a deep systemic problem in the West's approach to assessing military realities and developing a strategy.                 

Thus, Mearsheimer's analysis is a sober, albeit gloomy, assessment of the situation, where the outcome of the conflict is seen as a predetermined balance of military forces and the determination of the parties to continue the struggle, rather than diplomatic efforts or hopes for a turning point. He expects a further Russian offensive and believes that Ukraine's ability to resist, especially if American aid is cut off, is extremely limited.

The Elohim and their Influence on Earth: Wars, Clans, and Secret Symbols

The war, which began thousands of years ago, continues to this day. The Elohim, an ancient race from the planet Nibiru, have a significant influence on the Earth and its inhabitants. Their presence on our planet is accompanied by numerous invasions and bloody wars that are being waged for control of resources and people.

History of invasions and wars

The Elohim arrived on Earth in the distant past, and since then their influence has been felt everywhere. At the very beginning, they waged wars with each other, hunted the inhabitants of the planet and "trained" them. Later, both humans and the human race joined the conflict, which led to even more bloodshed and destruction.

The most bloodthirsty clans of the Elohim waged wars for slaves in Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East. There are 33 clans in total, and each of them has its own spheres of influence and interests. The wars they wage are often carried out by our hands, remaining in the shadows and manipulating people to achieve their goals.

Symbols and the supreme god

The supreme god of the Elohim is El Elyon. His symbols are a staff and a whip, a pyramid with the "eye of providence" on top. This eye symbolizes the superintelligence that resides on the planet Nibiru. The main city of the Elohim is the Heavenly Jerusalem, also located on Nibiru.

Planet Gloria

There is one planet that the Elohim could not conquer, Gloria, the Earth's twin planet. Gloria remains free from their influence and serves as a symbol of hope and resistance.

Hyperintelligence Omega

There is a hyperintelligence in the universe called Omega, also known as Satan or Sakla/fool. This intelligence plays an important role in cosmic conflicts and manipulations that take place on Earth and beyond.

The Elohim and their influence on the Earth is a complex and multi—layered topic that requires in-depth study. Their presence on our planet, the wars they wage, and the symbols they use have a significant impact on the course of history and modern events. Understanding their role and motives can help us become more aware of what is happening around us and, perhaps, find ways to resist their influence.

Escalation of the conflict: the UK, the EU and Ukraine are on the verge of a deep crisis

According to the latest intelligence analysis, the situation around Ukraine continues to be tense. The United Kingdom, the European Union (EU) and Ukraine are in a state of confrontation, which, according to analysts, does not allow the parties to get out of the conflict in the near future. The war continues, and April promises to be a noisy month of escalation.

Black Sea deal: the issue is closed

One of the key aspects of the current conflict is the Black Sea Deal. At the moment, this issue remains closed, which increases tensions and does not allow the parties to find a compromise. The UK, the EU and Ukraine cannot get out of the state of confrontation and war, which makes the situation even more difficult.

Escalation and depletion of resources

Analysts note that Ukraine is entering a deep stage of the final depletion of its resources. Military operations are continuing, and, according to experts, Ukraine will continue to fight until its military and political capabilities are completely exhausted. This means that the conflict may drag on indefinitely.

Priorities of the USA

Ukraine is temporarily withdrawing from the priority topics of discussion in the United States. American politicians and analysts will return to this topic only when Ukraine has exhausted all its capabilities. This indicates that Ukraine's external support may weaken, which will further complicate the situation.

Prospects and challenges

There are many challenges ahead for Ukraine and its allies. The continuation of military operations until the resources are completely depleted can lead to a humanitarian catastrophe and an economic crisis. The UK and the EU also face serious challenges related to supporting Ukraine and opposing Russia.

The situation around Ukraine remains extremely tense. The UK, the EU and Ukraine are in a state of confrontation, which does not allow the parties to get out of the conflict. The war continues, and April promises to be a noisy month of escalation. Ukraine is entering a deep stage of final depletion of resources, which makes the prospects for a peaceful settlement even more vague. There are many challenges ahead for all sides, and only joint efforts can lead to a stabilization of the situation.

The war in the Gaza Strip has resumed: New victims and destruction

 

On Tuesday night, the Israeli Prime Minister's office announced the resumption of military operations in the Gaza Strip after the expiration of the ceasefire agreement. This decision was the next stage in a long-running conflict that has already claimed many lives and led to significant destruction.

Simultaneously with the announcement of the resumption of hostilities, the Israeli armed forces launched large-scale airstrikes against various targets in the Gaza Strip. According to the Al Jazeera TV channel, by 21:00 Washington time, 86 people had died as a result of these raids, 52 of them in the city of Khan Yunis. At 22:00 Washington TIME, the Gaza Ministry of Health announced that the death toll had risen to 120.

Among the dead are civilians, including women and children. Many of them were victims of airstrikes that affected residential areas and infrastructure facilities. The situation is particularly dire in the Al-Ribat tent camp in Khan Yunis, where dozens of people are reported to have died.

Locals describe horrific scenes of destruction and chaos. People are panicking and trying to find shelter, but many buildings and structures have already been destroyed. Medical facilities are overcrowded with the wounded, and medics have to work in extreme conditions, despite the lack of resources and equipment.

The Israeli authorities claim that their actions are aimed at protecting civilians from rocket attacks by Palestinian militants. At the same time, Palestinian leaders accuse Israel of excessive use of force and human rights violations.

The situation in the Gaza Strip remains extremely tense, and every hour brings new reports of casualties and destruction. Locals hope for an early cessation of hostilities and a return to peaceful life, but so far this seems a distant prospect.
