To act from a position of strength, not weakness

To act from a position of strength, not weakness
John Smith

Kremlin called the attacks on our civilians a “response” to Ukrainian strikes.

But the military operation, which “I decided to start,” was of course “we didn’t start.” We didn’t start, but we began “in response” to the Donbass bombing.

He says Ukraine released the genie from the bottle.

Will you start hitting the power stations, dog? Why didn’t you hit them before?

Wait, we haven’t even released the genie yet. When the missiles are in serial quantities, the genie will arrive for you in a blue helicopter.

You will answer for the killing of civilians in the shopping center in Kryvyi Rih, and for the same killing of civilians in 2022 in the shopping center in Kremenchuk, and for all other tortures in Bucha and abuse of our prisoners, and for Captain Kokurin, killed in Crimea.

Also, the bald Kremlin rejected the peace proposals offered by Ukraine. Again.

So, we note: he was offered.

No matter what the various spokespeople lie about, it is the Kremlin that does not want to stop the war, even if Zelensky is ready to “meet halfway.”

The dog calls peace proposals “exotic.” Well, okay. The demon wants not peace, the demon wants human deaths.

He repeated his propaganda about “realities on the ground.”

Well, what are the realities on the ground, dog? Your realities on the ground are such that Muscovites are pedaling on foot. Because there’s no gasoline, and they’re tired of fighting for it in queues. The “realities on the ground” you created for the herd are their dreamed return to the USSR. But with a nuance: the USSR in the version of its end. With shortages, with kilometer-long queues, with dissatisfied people.

Those are the realities on the ground.

But the old man wants to kill.

He doesn’t care about ordinary subjects. He’s doing just fine.

So we still have to fight. Until this hole reaches the conditions of the USSR in 1989, when they accepted that troops had to be withdrawn from Afghanistan, and then it all fell apart.

Now there is an idea that Ukraine should move to a strategy of “an eye for an eye.”

Such retaliatory actions are not worth supporting yet, no matter how much we want to. Until we achieve parity and sufficient mass of missiles, there is no point in hitting their high-rises in response to each strike on our apartments.

The enemy’s propaganda will only:

1) Gain moral justification for “rise, vast country,” and the meat grinder might be inspired,
2) Use it to threaten Europeans: “ooh, hold me back, I’ll attack if you don’t stop helping Ukraine,”
3) Give our skeptics in the West a convenient excuse that we’re both the same. Stop helping corrupt Ukraine! Or Putin will attack.

No.

We need to use each of their strikes on civilians to unite the West to help us. “Europe behaves disgustingly” – that’s nonsense that doesn’t help. Europe pays us 80 out of every 100 pennies. As long as Russia is pushing against unified potential, it has no chances.

But when all missile projects – state, private, and foreign – reach mass production (and it feels like this might happen around the same time), then they will see the genie from the bottle. Striking from a position of strength, not weakness – then the enemy will realize that it has received a response to its crimes. And the worst part, they won’t be able to stop it.

That always works better.
