REAL POLITICK
By Mark Sleboda Dec 14
It seems that the US’s aggressive policies of economic warfare, provocative military containment, and covert regime change ops against any and all states that refuse to surrender their sovereignty and independence to the Hegemon, has resulted in more blowback than pushing Russia and China into a strong defensive strategic partnership. US officials are now panicking about a rapidly solidifying similar partnership between Russian and Iran. Indeed the 3 states now all have a tri-partite strategic partnership with each other.>
US National Security Council Spokesman John Kirby has recently warned, “The relationship between Russia and Iran is becoming a full-scale defense partnership” and that “weapons and military expertise flowing both ways,” as Moscow offers “an unprecedented level of military and technical support” to Tehran in exchange for the supply of as well as the designs and right to manufacture Iran’s low-cost but effective drones and ballistic missiles models, for use in Ukraine.
Russian forces have already been using their Geran-2 kamikaze drone swarms based on the Iranian Shahed 136 to devastating effect against the electrical infrastructure and military forces of the US’s client Putsch regime in Kiev and more advanced models are rumored to be on their way.
Now, Russia is also seeking to collaborate with Iran on areas like weapons development and increased joint military training and exercises to improve interoperability of their military forces, already forged side by side under fire together in Syria against the US, Turkey, ISIS and Al Qaeda.
The US is concerned that Russia intends to provide Iran with advanced military systems that could include combat helicopters, 4th and 5th gen fighter aircraft, such as the SU-35 and air defense systems” in return.

Russia’s S-400 air defense system is considered the world’s most capable and has already been supplied to China, India, and even Turkey.
Such Russian A2AD “anti-access, area denial” systems are the banes and bogeyman of the US Hegemon, denying them the ability to bomb with impunity any country under their protective shield.

The Biden admin has already responded, of course, with yet MORE ineffective sanctions on both Russia and Iran for daring to conduct military trade with each other. It’s a well-known fact that US President’s exhale new sanctions with every breath they take.
British Foreign Secretary James Cleverly, whined about these “sordid deals” as he called them between Tehran and Moscow posing an increasing threat to Western Hegemony, I mean global security.
Britain, he said, “will continue to expose this desperate alliance and hold both countries to account”.
Yep – they’re scared.
Its ok for the US and NATO to completely provide the funding, arming, training, intelligence, military planning, logistics, maintenance and repair, battlefield direction, and thousands of “mercenaries” for their client Kiev Putsch regime but how dare Russia and Iran trade and ally with each other?
<
The officials said the U.S. is also “looking at options to bring together a group of like-minded countries to discuss Iran-Russia military cooperation,” and has vowed to disrupt this defensive partnership to ensure Russia and Iran cannot move equipment, weapons or money through their countries to support this new partnership.”
Now I know that geography is not American’s strongpoint, but as a non-littoral state how exactly do they intend to interdict Russian-Iranian trade across the Caspian Sea? Teleport the 5th fleet into it?
Reader yes that’s best. Cheers.

OK, I won’t bother you with the climate issues.
Most readers of this blog are probably too old to be able to live long enough to see what will really happen with the weather because the climate change takes decades to develop.
Reader I cannot follow you and feel I’m getting too deep into the weeds not good for me. Whatever sanity I have left I need to hold on to.
Some of these.people are out of this world weird beyond measure.
Read this from way back

@FelixQuigley
It’s not my opinion, there are scientific articles on the subject.
Notice that the CO2 does not pull the temperature up with it.
I know that fossil fuels can pollute the atmosphere but consider the disadvantages of getting into another Ice Age while relying on the sunlight and wind for your heating facilities.
About 10 years ago, the head of the major Russian observatory came here with a lecture about the coming Ice Age – he is a scientist, not a conspiracy theorist.
Based on the ice core graph, we are now sitting on the peak of another huge temperature cycle, and the only way it will go next is DOWN.
Reader
I welcome your points
But consider this…sun/atmosphere/earth
And not sun/ earth

Yes they (fossil fuel industry) knew and took action to stop us knowing
They spent millions to do that

You must understand I am still waiting on Michael to explain his words and if I answer you he keeps hiding like a little harmless mouse

A better link to the ice core chart:

@FelixQuigley
Here is a chart of the ice core analysis for the last 400,000 years, notice that the current CO2 is out of bounds compared to the previous peaks, however, now the peak temperature is lower than at some of the previous peaks and does not directly follow the increases in CO2.
The Earth temperature depends on the cycles of the Sun and not on the man-made CO2.
We are now at the top of a peak and will be descending into another long Ice Age in a few years (while the “Greens” are busily destroying the fossil fuel systems and the nuclear power plants – at least the ones that used to be heating Europe):

Anyway although we may have lost the articles by Joseph I do think the book would still be available.
Even though Michael plays his tricks or tries to – the issue of Israel being a plaything of America goes way back
And who do you think is to blame for Global Warming – the fairies at the bottom of an Irish garden – Michael
Ted —
That, and global warming!
In fact this has just brought into my memory a 3 piece by Joseph based on a book dealing with the goings on between Eisenhower/Dulles and Ben Gurion. Awful things.
Israel muddled through and did not break from them.
My feeling is muddling through is now impossible. Because…
The US strong-arms its vassals who “refuse to surrender their sovereignty and independence to the Hegemon”.
That is what Israel is experiencing.
Would the China/Russia axis support Israel instead of Iran if Israel were to normalize its relations with the US i.e., stop taking orders from them. This would free up Israel to normalize with Russia and China.
The US is to blame for this development. The US should have embraced Russia to avoid it. Kinda like playing the China Card in reverse.
