Observations from Moscow

[Joseph Tracy]

> Why does a "special operation" take seven months and require conscription of civilians after seven months ?    
Why?Because Nato has taken over the operation of the Ukrainian army and recruited mercenaries? Why? Because Russia has not done this special military operation in the manner of shock and awe US mass killing with massive civilian casualties, but is trying to get the Ukraine to come to its senses?  Why? Because time and the coming winter are going to change European politics.  Why? Because the fundamental goal was to free the Donbass where citizens just voted for alliance with Russia. Why because Russia is building a evidence from Banderista-nazi cell phones on war crimes and intends in the long run to show another version of what is happening.  Why? Because the Russsians thought Ukrainians would lose their taste for self immolation while Zelensky offers them and their children as slaves to wall street. 
Why? Because Russia and China are picking up allies from around the world who are sick of US hegemony and World Bank slavery.
 As to people leaving Russia. The numbers are trivial. Why leave? They probably don’t want to go to war for something they don’t believe in and they probably believe they will find ‘freedom’ in the west. Have at it; It won’t hurt Russia or make any real difference. The Russian economy is not in nearly the trouble that Germany UK and US are, and a few thousand departures will make little difference. There are also thousands fleeing Nato territory for Russia.  People try to escape trouble and death during war. Very sensible. 

Apologists for the corrupt anglo empire and its endless resource wars were wrong about Syria, wrong about Afghanistan, wrong about Libya, Iraq, Hillary, Russiagate and will continue to be blinded by the neocon press. The empire is tottering and the only thing it can now summon to terrify the world is nuclear war.  Disgusting and fucking insane. May they reap what they sow.
