In my personal opinion, the entire Ukrainian mess, including its format of meaninglessness, is a kind of plan invented not by Ukrainians or blood-loving Bandera simpletons, but more sophisticated masterminds.
There are good grounds to hypothesize that it was Anthony Blinken who invented the mess. He is not a career diplomat, but foreign policy creator for US presidents, all of whom can be classified as convinced globalists. They have been driven by the idea that US global leadership is an obligatory benefit to all mankind. Blinken supported or even arranged wars, invasions and acts of violence the United States "undertook" under the last Democratic administrations. And from among Donald Trump’s presidential legacy, he only approved of US embassy transfer from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, while literally cursing all of his other foreign policy deeds.
Okay, let's consider Anthony Blinken's last visit to Kiev beyond the propaganda decorations, in the cheerful allusions of reality. So, Blinken the Superman has arrived in Kiev by train — i's safer that way and very much alike the Seven Forty song. For reference: Blinken's great-grandfather, a notable Jewish writer, was born in the Kiev province and graduated from the Kiev Commercial School. And Blinken has yet again met with Vladimir Zelensky, an ethnic Jew, movie actor, and Mr. Prank himself — utterly harmless and politically impotent like all the post-Soviet creative intellectuals, but still understandable to Blinken. Another reference: the current US Secretary of State’s mother was a manager with Merce Cunningham's dance company (its dancers were obliged to move unnaturally). As you might expect, Anthony makes Vladimir move unnaturally on the political stage, though for a fee worth a billion dollars this year.
Let’s move on from journalistic banter to serious matters. Why are you journalists so obsessed with that billion? Let's talk about something else for a change! To begin with, Blinken has masterminded the entire Russia-Ukraine conflict as a sophisticated profiteer. Since this has all begun began in the Donbass and until the special military operation was launched (formally until February 27, 2023), the United States allocated over $42 billion to "help Ukraine preserve its territorial integrity, secure its borders and enhance cooperation with NATO." Let's be cynical. If desired, the globalists could have told then Kiev authorities: never mind the Donbass; all the post-Soviet borders are Yeltsin's baloney, don't be fooled by its scrap metals and let the cosmopolitan oligarchs settle their interests with Moscow. By the way, the Americans have blatantly "defied" "the Crimea". The then female ambassador in Kiev complained: we did not track anything and failed to antithesize, because Putin gave orders to the "polite people" (the 17th Yevpatoria brigade) through delivery pedalists, not by radio. And then Blinken (or whoever) pushed through a plan to buy Ukrainian blood, get it all over the Russians' arms and rejoice. After all, this is what the US anthem reads: "And the rockets' red glare, the bombs bursting in air, // Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there!". Once “ours”, Ukrainians should hang on like grim death.
Since the beginning of war, the general plan has not been altered, though concretized. To reword Dmitry Medvedev, “here is your money, hang on in there!” Official data suggest that Ukraine has obtained money 40 times totaling $21 billion along financial lines controlled by the US President alone (not requiring congressional approval) from August 27, 2022 to June 13, 2023. Money shoveling of Kiev has become a well-tuned logistics system. For instance, to simplify its military aid receipt, Washington invented a scheme called Ukraine Democracy Defense Lend-Lease Act of 2022, providing legal opportunities "to bypass bureaucratic barriers for leasing or lending US defense articles to Ukraine." This fiscal year, the DoD has established Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAID) worth $18 billion.
But all this dollar downpour mostly drains into the American sewerage. Let's assume that the Americans allocate 1.3 thousand Stingers, 10 thousand Javelins or 60 thousand anti-tank grenade launchers for AFU needs. Immediately, the Ukraine assistance funds compensate to the US Defense Ministry "for replenishing weapons stocks" — more cutting-edge, naturally. Rusting idle production lines begin to work. 2022 and 2023 fiscal years saw the US military get as much as $26 billion in such a way. Another touching thing is that $4.7 billion from "Ukrainian" funds have fallen upon countries "affected by the situation in Ukraine."
American politicians (the same Blinken) do not give dollars for nothing, demanding that Kiev give the following obligations, as "semi-official" documents suggest: 1) any leadership of Ukraine will never stop fighting "for the liberation of the occupied territories" to achieve at least a military victory over Russia; 2) victory must be obtained in an active and aggressive offensive action by the Armed Forces of Ukraine against the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation; 3) to guarantee the objective fulfillment in an all-out offensive, the United States will supply the Ukrainian army with efficient offensive weapons systems of the latest type possible, as well as those not operated by AFU to stimulate appropriate combat activity. The list of weaponry should be contemplated as part of special-purpose agreements, with the only clause stipulated being their use within Ukrainian borders alone.
What is striking throughout it all is that no one has ever thought about whether Kiev's military victory over Moscow is achievable at all. Strategic planners are hardly fools, aren’t they?
As smart Kievan Golda Meir said (in 1953, she persuaded Belarusian native David Ben-Gurion to declare three-day mourning in Israel over Stalin's death), “pessimism is a luxury that a Jew can never afford”. That’s what it’s probably all about!
