You raise some very interesting points (thank you), which I would like to sketch out for you and your readers. The Ukraine conflict has showed "the West" has one strong point and one strength/weakness depending on your point of view. These are the full deployment of all intelligence assets on the military and presumably non-military fronts. Thus the intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance (ISR) assets feed a huge amount of satellite, communications, eavesdropping and electronic warfare data in detailed reports to provide targets. This is a strength and might be hard to break. The second is the barrage of propaganda to keep the civil populations of Ukraine and their Western backers in line behind their operation, based on false assumptions of superiority and right. So far this has held up, at least for the majority of those targeted.
Militarily, NATO has been shown to be a paper tiger, with the hardware on the Russian side being shown to be better in the functional sense (see Simplicius's reports over the conflict on this platform). The US/NATO logistics have been shown to be completely inadequate and too costly.
So how can we tackle these two points of ISR and propaganda? What would bring the US to be agreement capable?
"NATO's biggest problem after the collapse of the USSR was the lack of an external enemy"
And here I must disagree. When Jewish neocons wormed their way into US government after 9/11 they saw NATO as a way of using goyim body bags and tax dollars to achieve their 3,000 year old wet dream of controlling the wealth of the world. These depraved deceitful schmucks will never give up voluntarily until they are 'bombed back to the stone age'

A new subscriber and have been doing some catch up reading … your article regarding the Russian Spring, the 21 y.o who cried his last words… never forget .. won’t be forgotten, may he RIP and sleep forever peacefully, never ever lost to the heart or memory for those whom he sacrificed.
You write with a style that is both refreshing and oh so real, I have found your essays to be not only educational and revealing as with this, but the perspective offered a reminder of yours and your brother in arms brutal reality.. a reality that but for those like you prepared to lace up, to get out into and confront the very real evil in this world, that if not for you this world would be an entirely different place.
This essay is illuminating as it details the total ineptitude and bloat that is NATO, a three headed monster incapable of doing anything but posturing as it whores itself amongst its members, tediously sucking them dry of the loose change, the crumbs to fall from their tables, happy for so long to be ekeing what it could not all of its customers happy the average service provided, but having been reinvigorated by a voracious U.S, U.K, France, Swede, German and Italian military industrial complex with the Checzhs and other minnows all with hands out, hoping for a few coins to be returned into their grubby hands, a base here, another bigger there, a secretariat domiciled in your capital, don’t worry friend, we will place an HQ in yours …. it seems this serious Military Alliance is more fixated upon sharing the love man, the spoils of the rort… their long suffering tax payers rheemed up the ass, cleaned out well and truly.. living standards, pensions, healthcare all playing second to the hunger pangs of this bloated NATO beast…
Perhaps with Dutchman Rutte in charge, monetarily things might improve, we know how tight the Dutch are when it comes to spending the lolly, tight as a ducks arse are the Dutch, akin to pulling teeth to get even what is rightfully and lawfully owed, but something tells me not much at all will change… that under Rutte it will be business as usual, more calls for additional spend, more sacrifices required from those least able to afford the increase, their economies already basket cases, headed down the carsy, dunny, long drop, toilet or shitter for want of a better and more apt descriptive, meanwhile the Military Industrial Complex salivates at the unprecedented windfall and profits heading its way, the plan long gestated in the West as to how best to modernise NATO has been achieved beyond even the MIC’s wildest orgasm.
These insufferable and loathsome NATO turds will forever be indebted to he or she amongst them that came up with the idea of modernising NATO with the shiniest, newest but still useless weaponry, to replace the old, all completed whilst contemporaneously ridding themselves of all of the old weapons from within NATO member Forces, whilst simultaneously using the old that is to be replaced in a hot War that they would win 😂😂😂😂😂 fighting Russia, deserves and is deserving the opprobrium of all involved in that little club of the gullible, not of their gratitude, but of their collective disdain, for this little escapade has literally bankrupted them all, just as Putin and his Generals knew would result fighting an attrition centric conflict as opposed NATO’s shock and awe 😂😂😂😂, moreover I would be bet big right now, that after nearly three years and with the SMO like.y to go into another until Russias objectives are fully met, that right now, this minute, each passing minute of every hour longer this SMO continues as it is, that those dip shits at NATO in every command, HQ, secretariat are virtually in true shock and are completely over awed at the magnitude of their defeat.
Meanwhile the grift and corruption will continue aplenty, for undoubtedly with all of this spend happening, many of these NATO apparatchiks who will have negotiated and received their divvy, with the vocation to be involved in for the foreseeable future at NATO being procurement and or contracts determination/finalisation, obviously those roles being the hottest gigs to be involved with at NATO…. Imagine the kickbacks, the largesse being foisted upon these rule of law, democracy abiding, freedoms loving NATO pieces of shitzen… 😂😂😂😂 hardly worth thinking about, making every USD$50,000.00 Rubbish tin or $20,000.00 toilet seat acquired, sweet justice indeed…

I am no expert but it all makes perfect sense. It also makes you wonder when will the Europeans wake up from their dream of greatness. They are delusional.
History is first repeated as a tragedy then as a farce. America is the tragedy, EU/NATO, the farce. All this has already happened through the Reich and Bolshevik USSR and yet here we are. I can imagine how anxious the GS of the RF are to get the job finished this time by pushing all the way to the Polish border while the political establishment is busy building up a new multipolar world order that will render all these old institutions useless. It's not even that Russia is winning, they got problems of their own bubbling beneath the surface, it's more so that the West is imploding by it's own doing and making it easier for Russia. The stupidity of the words and actions emanating from the West is pure gold.
I fully agree that NATO is fat and stupid and that this is good for the Russian Federation. I would just add that it's also bad for everybody else. I would rather NATO cease to exist, together with the EU, the UN, the IMF and so many other international institutions that have been politically captured by the US. They serve no other purpose than to deliver power and wealth to a tiny minority of the so-called "globalist elite" and to keep the vast majority of the global population under their control.
Why am I reminded of Monty Python by this sketch? I'll wager the corruption within NATO is many times the size that existed within Russia thanks to those million bureaucrats who must constantly think of ways to further line their pockets.
This is a very insightful article and now gives me a sense of relief that there's no real danger to humanity in case of war breaking out between this decrepit alliance vs Russia
If I may , I started working in Ukraine in 08 and the Russian Ukrainian Construction co. had an office in Kiev . My Construction job was in Yalta , Crimea, AU. I retired before the Maidan and was present in Crimea before , during and after 2014. Since Crimea was An Autonomous Republic with a small Constitution, it had te right to vote for a change. They tried to vote in order to go back to Russia in the 90s but were sabotaged by Kiev and their Mafia politicians who ran Simferopol , the Capital of Crimea, AU. The vote in 2014 was real , and I'd say at least 85% of the people were ready for a change. They knew what Kiev and Lvov were up to. I believe even the famous Gilbert Doctorow was an Election official watching the election process. The vote was signed off as Legit.
Business was done in the Russian and Ukrainian language, when it came to documents, but every place I went or delt with spoke mostly Russia - even in my travels to Chisinau, Moldova , everyone spoke Russian. In this region alot of people speak Russian, in the America's , alot of people speak English/Spanish - what is the big deal - The Tatar people speak 2 or 3 languages.
Excellent article. NATO and the combined West have been truly exposed, unforunately the BIG dogs that run these multiple organisations believe their own BS. All they can do is constantly bark like mad dogs knowing full well it would be impossible to defeat a nuclear superpower like Russia. They have used their proxy in Ukraine a cutout of the Nazi SS and continue with this arrogance and hubris. Ever since WW2 this propaganda has prevailed and it continues with this myth that never existed in reality.

I remember last month reading about some parashute drill done by the Dutch. 6 of them got stuck in trees...
Well, they were quite capable of bombing Africa's most developed country back in the stone age.
North Atlantic Terror Org or what that stands for.
I guess they can gang up and beat a small guy into submission if the price is right.
For everything else they rely on nuclear armageddon. Who cares? "Lived a good life", they think.
I fully agree that NATO is fat and stupid and that this is good for the Russian Federation. I would just add that it's also bad for everybody else.

NATO operates on racism, arrogance, and hubris. They have nothing else. If they were condensed into one person, it would be a preening, prancing fop.
Dear Marat
Did Crimea get annexed or did they vote to leave the ukraine and voted again to join Russia?
One is legal and the other is not.
Greetings and thanks from Switzerland.
There was an illegal couple in the Ukraine and a 2014 referendum where they voted to join Russia.
If I may , I started working in Ukraine in 08 and the Russian Ukrainian Construction co. had an office in Kiev . My Construction job was in Yalta , Crimea, AU. I retired before the Maidan and was present in Crimea before , during and after 2014. Since Crimea was An Autonomous Republic with a small Constitution, it had te right to vote for a change.

Так это вы вынудили российских олигархов тратить деньги в России,за что вам огромное спасибо
Хорошо и смешно

Great article! Can't wait for land and nuclear power!
Great article, love that "500 aircraft standing by under steam" part.
