A lot of Westerners don't realise that if Ukraine wasn't fighting the Russians there is a fair chance that the West would directly be fighting the Russians. So the Ukrainians are really doing us a big favour in fighting the Russians instead of our own people having to fight the Russians. I reckon if Ukraine can hang on in there for another year or so until the Russian economy collapses and Russia is forced to throw in the towel then for us WWII might have just been avoided thanks to the efforts and sacrifices of the Ukrainian people and our help of course backing them up.

Krimster's FOREX for American Running Dogs and other Canines

Dollars and SENSE!!!
Even when they win, they also LOSE

In the first quarter of 2025, Russian banks recorded a total loss of RUB 149 billion (approx. US$1,8 billion) from currency revaluation due to the rouble’s appreciation.
Over the course of three months, the rouble strengthened by 21.5%, leading to a negative revaluation of banks’ foreign currency assets amounting to RUB 2 trillion (US$25 billion).

While currency liabilities also decreased as exchange rates fell, the reduction was smaller. The resulting gap in the open currency position (the difference between foreign currency assets and liabilities) narrowed to US$1.1 billion for the quarter.

By the end of May 2025, the Russian rouble’s exchange rate had risen significantly, surpassing RUB 78 per US dollar, marking a two-year high.
so now, they want to get rid of their FOREX reserves cuz Rubley are worth more to the arms exporters
and they can pay in Rubley

just run the presses 24/7 and get new presses and then even more and more
hahahahahaha!!!!


and the walls...come tumble-ing down

one day ya'll gonna be drivin to 7-11
and the radio is gonna start screaming about Armegeddon

slovo te mama, suka

Iran's retalion to Israel is to fire hundreds of missiles in salvos hoping to overwhelm Iron Dome
Russia will not be seeing any new Iranian Cruise Missiles or Drones for the next few months
oil prices are increasing
Russian shadow tankers sailing to Shang Hai returning with weapons from People's Liberation Army

it'll take a long time to reconfigure Russian centrifuge's to HEU in Iran
they have enuff for a few bombs, and some plutonium
Israel has more nuclear warheads already stockpiled and F-22 and F-35 for delivery
nothing really left of hamas or hezbollah, west bank will stay out of the fight

if Iran tries to cut-off Hormuz the USA will join the fight against Iran
with B-1 an B-2 bombers carrying earth penetrating "bunker busters"

Israel and USA plan is to COMPLETELY DESTROY Iran's nuclear capability
while Israel is increasing it's stockpile

It's wonderful news that Israel is now attacking Iran and taking away their nuclear capability. Like I was saying a few months ago if Iran is hit with enough missiles by Israel/the West in the right places, all of its state control infrastructure then it may destabilise the regime enough and allow for insurgent groups to challenge it and possibly take control, maybe even split the country up.

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c93ydeqyq71t

Apparently Iran has around 2000 ballistic missiles. As we saw last year when they fired a few hundred off in two separate attacks a lot tend to not be very accurate and most were shot down. It looks like a few have gotten through hitting Israel today but in general I think Iran lacks the ability to hit Israel well enough even with all those missiles (Iron Dome, etc). The good news as you say Krim is that Iran won't be supplying Russia for many months, it will be firing it's ballistic missiles and drones at Israel instead potentially giving Ukraine the respite it needs from missile and drone attacks on its cities. That is good news for Zelensky and the Ukrainian people :)

I think these attacks are well timed by Israel not only taking out Iran's nuclear capacity but going for the last piece in the puzzle to securing it's security and relative peace in the region. Now that Israel have gotten Hamas, Hezbollah and the old Syrian regime out of the way it leaves a pathway to take out the country largely behind it all, Iran without the risk of facing all of those foes at once concentrated against it.

Russia is too weak now to help Iran and is focused on its own war with Ukraine. So now is a good time to take out the Iranian regime if Israel can help to do so. If the Iranian regime falls not only will it help stability and peace across the Middle East but it will remove one likely member of a future WWIII scenario Axis of Russia, China, North Korea and Iran. Averting WWIII could well depend on picking these nations off one by one by any suitable method available. Russia I think are done for, particularly in the near future, Iran can be sorted out now. China is probably a different kettle of fish and care will be need to be taken there, North Korea is too small and I think weak (weaker than they boast) to be a big concern, they are only a small country.

So this looks like good news that Israel is going for Iran, better to do it now than when economic strife hits the West and it becomes difficult to spend out the money dealing with the likes of Russia & Iran. If Iran uses up most of its 2000 ballistic missiles on Israel and Israel takes out it's capacity to produce more then that alone will weaken Israel significantly.

would $Trump sign an executive order allowing the purchase of Russian oil?
cuz of an "emergency"
which means "everyone should get from street"

you can't eat bank notes
10-15 years from now, cans of soup will be legal tender in most parts of America

American Maidan has started
http://x.com/i/status/1933975472867565620

will Trump make the same mistake Yanukovich made in Kiev?

stockpile gold and silver
spread some of yur gold into small denomination 1/4 OZ, or $5 dollar gold coins etc and some in 10 OZ bars for doing things like buying cars or real estate
small demoninations are for food and medical

now is the time to stockpile ammunition, as much as you can afford to buy
get an FFL 06 license for $100 and you can be a wholesale ammo dealer
buy/sell and get wholesale prices

a "brick" of 500.22 LR rimfire cartridges will be very good for barter in post-Trump America, right around the time they cut social security payments by almost 1/3
and the Treasury will be taking $2-$3 TRILLION out of the main street economy EVERY YEAR in interest on the federal debt and tariffs

Israel and Iran at it again last night:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c2kqkd03xn5t

Israel hit an Iranian Oil Depot while Iran used a new kind of missile on Israel. For Israel it looks like Iron Dome perhaps isn't working as well as hoped 🤔

The New York Times now reports millions of Americans attendied "No Kings" anti-Trump protests across the country.
Events in all 50 states. Officials in Los Angeles are calling the crowds “unprecedented.”
This is likely one of the largest mass protests in U.S. history.

I told ya'll there'd be an American Maidan
this isn't the end of it, it's just the beginning of the anti-orange revolution
Tak!

meanwhile in Israel
the current iteration of iron dome doesn't work against hypersonic missiles, it's more for Hamas's flying pipe rockets made with Iranian ammonium perchlorate
note: it's likely the USA will subsidize Israel to create a hypersonic missile defense for America's "Golden Dome" vrs Chinese and North Korean "Raketta"
and the current iteration of Iron Dome can be overwhelmed with large salvos of slower rockets and drones

we haven't heard about "Iron Beam" lasers being used yet...this might fix the salvo issue....

without iron dome, Iranian missiles/drones would've done much more damage

downtown Tel Aviv is covered in Iranian rocket crud
no need to hire teenagers to collect it, just walk out yur door and pick it up

PS
if Iran can launch "hundreds of missiles at once" then imagine how many China can launch

Israel has total air superiority over Tehran, and demonstrated it can easily target Iran's energy economy, IF the war escalates
half the Israeli citizens killed were arab, and the rest mainly old people

all of Iran's top officials families just fled to Russia
because Israel was targeting them for elimination

joos are not phuqueing around with anti-semites, they will "Eichman" yur ass so fast now....
anti-semitism ONLY made joos STRONGER and STRONGER and SMARTER and SMARTER

Iran has nearly 10X the population and unlimited oil money
yet Israel already controls Iran's skies without a single loss
and it already devastated hamas and hezbollah and houthis

the holacaust created the lion of Judah

A DAC is a network of artificial intelligence agents which divides its labor into two parts:
(1) tasks it pays or incentivizes humans to do,
(2) tasks which it performs itself. It can be thought of as a corporation run without any human involvement, under the control of a set of business rules.

they operate through encrypted networks in foreign countries and use crypto currency for transactions
they are like ninja warriors that leave no trace of their existence

PS2
no matter how phuqued up yur country is, at least you have the consolation of NOT living in North Korea

AMIRIGHT?

PS3
in 1940 it took Britain over 400 rounds of AA artillery to down a german aircraft
by 1944, radar aimed guns with a mechanical "predictor" reduced the number tp 100 rounds
proximity fuses improved it even more

why should Incels seek marriage?
how about because "sweety, I'd like to have some sushi please..."
that reality can be even better than yur fantasy
good enuff reason?

OTOH, sometimes a man suffering from sexual frustration can have a solution in hand nudge...nudge...wink....wink....

but incels can't give up porn
they ain't got no money, and they ain't got no rizz, just jizz

Good to see Israel are finally sorting Iran out Krim. Iran has been left as a threat by the West for far too long though some of it might have been due to the collection of dictator states, etc that they were in the region that probably would have banded together etc. Good also to hear that Israel dominates Iran's skies. It's better that Israel presses home their advantage now than risk Iran getting in defences against that either by developing it themselves or from Russia, etc.

If Israel can keep hitting all the crucial infrastructure that Iran relies upon then there could be a good chance of them toppling the Iranian regime. It's what the world and Iran needs for the religious nutters that run Iran to go.

In WWII I believe the common method that was developed at first was to fire the anti aircraft artillery into a roughly box section rather than to try to aim directly to take an enemy bomber out. They knew if they each tried to aim directly for it they would likely miss so instead they knew that if they each aimed into a rough theoretical box area in the sky the odds increase of hitting some of those in the bomber group by chance due to the concentration of firing into the rough theoretical box area they were flying in. That or damage done to the bomber aircraft from shells exploding in the sky nearby.

the future of the war is more up to Israel and Iran.....

if Iran closes Hormuz, it will lead to the use of USA sea launched tomahawk cruise missiles and B-2 with bunker busters against military targets

Israel will have to take on the majority 90% of the fighting, with US air support and a naval blockade, etc
I don't see the USA in a ground war in Iran

I think the goal is to topple the Islamic regime
Iran eaither has to escalate the war, and face the consequnces, or be humiliated by the Joos
their Persian egos can't handle this very well

meanwhile Iran is in the grip of a major drought, and the southern parts of the country can reach temperatures that are not compatible with human life
not far away, everyone in cairo sleeps on the roof to escape the heat, and the Nile is drying up

Israeli supplied solar panels exploded with pagers all over the middle east
beware of joos bearing electronics

the entire Iranian oil and gas export sector could be destroyed by Israel in 48 hours with few Israeli casualties
Trump could make a deal with Putin to use Russian oil to replace Iranian, at the expense of the Chinese and Indians
but he'd have to waive Russian sanctions by executive order
no tariffs on anything from Russia!!!!

opportunity + danger

Trump could say to Putin, Freeze the war, and the lines, no more fighting
all sanctions repealed

it'd be a great deal for all concerned
a win-win

and completely wreck Iran's economy, nuclear program and military and their government collapses as a result and is replaced by "Queers for Palestine Rainbow Coalition"

phuque-yeah!

Israel says it has full control of Iran's skies:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/c2kqkd03xn5t

It looks like Israel are hitting sites in the West of Iran now, in addition to the radar stations etc that it hit earlier on. Can't be sure exactly what they are hitting at the moment. Hopefully they'll degrade the ability of the Iranian regime to control so much that civil war will break out🤞

Israel claims that it has destroyed approximately 120 Multiple Rocket Launchers over the past few days. They reckon that is approximately a third of all of Iran's Multiple Rocket Launchers. That's got to be good news and hopefully Israel will continue and destroy the rest. The weaker Iran becomes the better for all of us.

Trump and Putin are "maneuvering" so that if an opportunity presents itself, they can take advantage

http://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-us-could-get-involved-iran-israel-conflict_n_684fef30e4b03c462a05708c

Zelensky is in a bad position due to lack of military and financial support
and might compromise on land to end the fighting (temporarily)

China will replace Iran for drones and missiles
they can ship by direct rail to Russia!!!!

if Iran escaletes they are phuqued!
their entire economy will be turned into scrap metal
they'll run outta missiles in a week or so
then resort to terroriists blowing up schools, etc

Iran could take its HEU enriched uranium and mix it with plutonium and get a big Super-oralloy bomb like the USA UK did in the early 1950s
it would wipe Tel-Aviv off the map
they'd probably "deliver" it in a truck cuz of it's size and weight

over 20% of the world's oil flows through Hormuz
half-a-dozen Iranian MLRS can shut it down by sinking a couple of tankers
leading to massive oil price increases

that's when the US would step in
Putin would have immense power because of his oil reserves

Trump is the middleman with Netanyahu and Trump is the middleman with Putin

Zeihan is copying me

No Kings

Europe is pulling a $TRILLION out of the USA's financial system and bringing it back to Europe
they are already doing that to "liquid" investments like stocks, bonds, CDs, etc
and they are starting to divest themselves of American commercial assets like factories, etc

pretty much all of Iran's "shadow tankers" are based on a single location which has all the facilities for oil transfer
bomb this one place, and you put an end to Iran's oil shipments to China, no tankers, no oil transport, China freaks out!!!

then Trump and Putin hold the cards

I understand Krim, I can definitely see you and Beefarmer cuddled up on the sofa in the near future watching Zeihan  :popcorn: ;D

You'll be saying that Trenchie doesn't know what he's talking about lol

I skipped through a lot of the Zeihan video 🥱

I saw the bit where he reckons the EU are pulling investment out of the US as a result of Trump's tarriffs and that obviously not being good for the US.

As said recently the UK suffered a decline in the last quarter apparently due to a drop in US trade as a result of Trump's tarriffs. So potentially we are going nowhere good globally as a result of Trump's tarriffs.

Zeihan seems on the fence with Ukraine. The quoted figure of Ukraine needing to take 4 Russians for every 1 Ukrainian I think is unreliable and uncertain where that comes from/is based on. I think there is a lot more at play in the war in Ukraine and a bare statistic as that doesn't really reflect the real life situation. Essentially it seems to be that Ukraine only has to hold on a year or so and they will have it in the bag, Russia's economy will collapse and Russia will have no more money with which to fund its war in Ukraine. I think Western nations have been playing it along the whole while playing the long game drip feeding Ukraine knowing that the Russian economy can only sustain the war so long.

In History I believe there is call a thing such as Economic Historians, I think that is what they call them, basically Historians that focus solely on statistics and base their reasoning from there. I think Zeihan is in a similar mold basically extrapolating outcomes from the statistics he has in front of him. It's ok but I think often there is the risk of solely focusing on one statistic too much and missing other statistics or factors around it that could affect it's outcome. That's not saying the outcome of that statistic is wrong or won't happen but potentially it may not always be right and work out as thought.

pretty much all of Iran's "shadow tankers" are based on a single location which has all the facilities for oil transfer
bomb this one place, and you put an end to Iran's oil shipments to China, no tankers, no oil transport, China freaks out!!!

Russia probably isn't so bothered about Iran now, they already have shahed drone factories in Russia and itf they see they may do better from oil then it may make them not so concerned.

However Israel/the West may hold off on completely destroying Iran's oil infrastructure because of that. Potentially regime change could be brought about without that. How long it would take after regime change before oil started flowing again who knows. Depends on level of chaos I guess.

On the other hand of course Russia stands to lose another ally leaving them with potentially no influence in the Middle East.

Ukraine International Airlines Flight 752
was an israeli "special operation" like the "pager bombings"
Israel hacked into the Buk Command Control, and communications
and made Flight 752 look like a cruise missile....
dumb-ass Russians don't even encrypt the Buk's command and control signals
Iranians are even dumber than Russians

why?
becuz Ukrainian Kh-55 medium-range, air-launched cruise missiles were sold to Iran straight from the Ukrainian factory for some major $$$$$
along with the COMPLETE PLANS to the factory, so it can be rebuilt in Iran
that Ukrainian turbofan from Motor Sich is one SWEET engine!!!!
Flight 752 was full of Ukrainian missile and turbofan experts and executives from the factory who just left a major meeting in Tehran to expand the operation even more!!!

Israel put an end to that
and Iran got blamed for it

"The Jiews are the men who will be blamed for nothing"  grafitti from "Jack"

Putin's Spreadsheet

weekly Russian casualty statistics
account book of Ukrainian aid

both these spreadsheets show an emerging trend of DECLINE, because these 2 statistics have a "causal relationship"
therefor, Putin thinks, that if just keeps up the "meat assaults" combined with Trump's help,  that he'll eventually win the Ukrainian war, if you extrapolate those curves to the future
Putin has no fear of there being a "Ne Czar" protest in Russia

meanwhile a "NO KINGS" wave is building and will become a tsunami in the USA
EVEN THE MILITARY MARCHING IN TRUMP'S PARADE WERE PROTESTING, YOU CAN TELL BY HOW THEY MARCHED, TRUMP WAS BIGLY PISSED!!!
and of course, they ran over and killed a pedestrian for Trump's $50 million birthday party for himself

y'all can ban me all you want to, it doesn't matter
nothing can stop an idea whose time has come
especially not YOU

everything I told ya'll was gonna be comin, are NOW the latest news headlines
curse me all you want, it's the fate of all prophets, I understand and accept this

clearly...for those with "eyes to see"
the season has changed
the world of RWD is gone and ain't coming back
it's just nostalgia for old timers

let the dead, bury the dead

Allahu Ak Bar and Grill at Ali's Trading Post just outside "the radioaactive zone"
chef's special de jour - BBQ Possum' with tater tots only 10 AA batteries

snovum godom, check yur scrotom

PS
Trump's threat to join with Israel
is used as a warning
that if Iran blocks Hormuz, the USA will be in the war
this restrict's Iran's choices for retaliation

I don't think Iran has an exit ramp without negotiations
because Israel can shut down Iran's economy COMPLETELY in under 48 hours

both sides have declining stock piles of weapons to deal with
Israel needs a reserve that is sufficient to wipe out Iran's oil and gas exports plus power plants, etc
change the targets from military/nuclear to economic

then it's "all over" for Iran
enjoy yur 120 degree weather with no AC


on the roc-ky road to du-ble-in...oh one two three four five

as he does an irish jig me boy-o
which evolved into "clog dancing" in the USofA

and I left me home in Ire-land
and became a rogue a-cross the sea
and saw me mudder and father no more
forgive me father, for I have sinned

on ebay you can buy lead foil
i'd figure some way to coat the lead with plastic, so ya don't handle it and develope damage to yur Central Nervous System
then cut it into shapes the necessary size to fit in undewear

think of it as a lead "jockstrap"
women need this MORE than men
becuz women's ovories have eggs when they hit puberty
whereas sperm gets recycled quickly and regnerated
ESPECIALLY IF YUR BEE FARMER!!!!

lead underwear that's fun to wear
this is also good for deavotchkie to walk in Chernobil with, stops alpha and beta rays and reduces gamma
either wear shoe coverings or throw away the shoes you wore in Chernobil, wear gloves, don't get yur fingernails dirty in Chernobil, always have yur radiation detector on

the stamps and postcards from the Chernobil Mini-market are HIGHLY collectable, you can't miss it at the Chep Entrance gate

on the rock-y road to du-bul-in...one two three four five
