I'm sensing a theme

This comes as no surprise, of course, given that the feebs have always had it in for anyone left of Attila the Hun. But it is good to see someone with relatively deep pockets push back a little. From Billboard:
Last week an Air Force MQ-9 Reaper drone was shot down near Benghazi, Libya. This prompted an investigation by U.S. Africa Command.
Reams of paper, gigabits of blogspace, hours of MSM blather, much hand-wringing, and no small measure of Schadenfreude has accompanied the in-progress suicide of European lemmings plunging over the sanctions cliff.
According to a recent Gallup poll, only 14% of the public has confidence in our criminal justice system. This is true for every political faction.
OK. Sure. We've been telling you for more than a month that Ukraine is launching a counter-offensive around Kherson, and, well, there hasn't actually been a counter-offensive.
But we mean it this time!
Prepare for impact fellow crash test dummies, or so it seems as the west doubles down on its collision course to war with both Russia and China. This week alone, the US pledged another three billion over the next few years to provide arms to Ukraine, and the UK and BoJo pledged an additional $63M in arms. Not to mention the likely new PM of the UK is ready to start a nuclear war with Russia. Additionally the US is setting up Taiwan as Ukraine 2.0 to provoke a war with China. Meanwhile, much of the world plans to hitch their wagon to the rising economies of the BRICS+ economic alliance rejecting subjugation to the US, IMF and the collective west. The west continues its self delusion that they are most of the world, but in reality comprise 12-15% of global population.
