Time is on the side of the Russians in Ukraine and the Chinese on pretty much anything else when it comes to confronting the US empire.

But ever since the ceasefire in Lebanon and the fall of Assad I can't help but feel that the Palestinian cause is getting worse every day. No one is lifting a finger for them except the Yemenis and it only seems that the Zionist fucks are getting closer to their objectives.

Civil war in "Israel" when? True Promise 3 when (lol)?

It doesn't help that some of the loudest voices cheering for Assad's fall where Palestinians and that sectarism is strong against Shia's...

American analysts, including Biden earlier in his career, have long foretold that the threat of Ukraine joining NATO would provoke an invasion by Russia.

Why did Biden later claim the invasion was expansionist? The same reason Bush claimed Iraq had WMDs. The same reason Obama claimed the Libyan state was about to commit a genocide, or that the Syrian state had used chemical weapons when evidence instead pointed to the Al Nusra front.

In reality, Russia invaded Ukraine because Russia is scared of NATO, because NATO is an arm of American power, and Ukraine joining NATO would put American power on the border close to Moscow. This response was so predictable that analysts have been forecasting it literally for decades.

America prolongs the war to weaken Russia, and indirectly China, because this strengthens America's hold over the global south.
