A bankrupt Europe fighting Russia in 6-8 years?? About as realistic as Boris's plan for the Ukraine to win the war, or Zelensky's plan, as a private citizen, to sign a peace treaty with Putin...Putin, a legalistic type, has already said that he can't do any business with private citizens claiming to represent the Ukraine....But at least the Pentagon i.e. Loyd Austin, has put an end to the neocons' dream of WW3....I have to take a victory lap for predicting that one...There are some very smart people in the bowels of the Pentagon, and Austin listens to them.....
Remember when Lloyd Austin disappeared into a hospital for a few weeks after maybe visiting Ukraine winter of 2022-2023? I think he was hurt in a bunker somewhere and barely lived. It was all hush-hush, some kind of routine-surgery-complications story...
He may have had an epiphany along that path. Sometimes people change from almost dying.
I tracked Miley at the time. He was always a sly traitor to his country. He'll never be charged with anything, though. He "knew the limits" of what he could readily get away with to side with the Clinton/Podesta/Pelosi/RINO crowd.
And step back to the LBJ Pentagon. In the overall context of power politics and public policy War is the health of the State. After Covid war at home as expressed by MLK about the bombs falling in our streets became terrifyingly a bomb injected.
Not nuclear. Very large conventional explosion, I believe the main blast is a large ammunition/explosives storage going up very quickly after being hit as the massive flash/fireball appears secondary to a prior flash of a first smaller explosion. There are large numbers of something flying and burning brightly, typical of ammo dump explosions-possibly rocket engines, flares, chunks of burning propellant, incendiaries, IDK what all.
One of the videos taken out of a moving vehicle window is apparently so close to the developing fireball that even a 1kt nuclear weapon (large enough to generate the observed shock wave and fireball effects if fired as an air burst) would soon kill those in the vehicle from prompt radiation, also likely would have killed the chips of the camera/phone and vehicle electronics. And, as Israel really wants to take possession of Ke anon/be able to live & farm in their present Northern locales? Even the Israelis would not fire a surface or bunker buster nuke where this occured.
Never fear though, all of the online world will declare it a tactical nuclear attack as usual-
As Hezbollah is known to have posessed USSR designed/built M21 Grad rockets, I suspect they had some of these magnesium block/thermite ignition cluster incendiary warheads in store:
I have seen several video of these rockets being used in the Ukraine (by both sides), the appearance matches those "sparkles". Showy but not good for much but starting forest or grass fires-
Gilbert Doctorow has just confirmed my assessment that he is an irredeemable ASS, as in donkey, fool. Anyone that can write a sentence like this about the poisonous Jacques Delors demonstrates that he doesn't understand a thing and never did, and in my humble euro opinion deserves instant "unsubscribe" =

Both Maastricht and the Lisbon treaties have redacted sections unavailable to the European citizens they speak for, requiring the highest NATO clearance to access. These make clear that the "European Union" is a 100% NATO construct, that NATO is its progenitor, and the purpose of the EU is to enforce on the captive states ever-reducing sovereignty (down to 20% now) fitted to agendas that are never revealed and probably modify over time in light of events. The "EU" is and always has been conceived inside the war project.
Sure, Delors and his ilk were 'respectable', well spoken malevolences in suits, while Kaja Kalas and Van der Leyen etc are trash talking malevolent nitwits, but the latter is in keeping with the nitwit show across the Atlantic, where the Owners - your word John - believe the US public is by now so degraded they are beyond discerning this excellent joke.

Palace Coup becomes who runs the Pentagon in the deeper sense in 2020: the question of factions in power behind supporting Miley. https://www.zerohedge.com/political/silent-insurrection-general-milleys-hand-january-6.

"AI data centers also raise power and water bills for nearby residents Net-zero emission goals went out the window with AI"
this pretty much explains UN2030. slave planet runs on big computers and the current grid can't support both current demands plus more big computers.
There are a lot of lies going around.
We have to watch what is happening for ourselves, don't we?

Thanks for the analysis. I wondered what the sparklers might be, also.

Thanks. Pieces of "Willy-Pete" is what it looked like flying through the air.
Good stuff Dr John.
Good morning, Dr. Day. I think you would enjoy my article about a life of a proxy. https://quannguyen128.substack.com/p/qi
I have left you a comment, "Army" ;-)
