Imperialism at bay in Ukraine: Pouring aid in a bucket full of holes

BY the next month of February, the conflict in Ukraine would have entered its first year since the Russian Federation was forced to send its troops on the eastern side of the country to protect its own national survival and that of the oppressed Russian-speaking minority there in what Russian President Vladimir Putin has described as a ‘special military operation.’

One year since and far from the delightful initial glee of Western imperialists and their overlord, US Imperialism, that they could use the incident to finally bring down, subjugate and divide the wide Russian territory into their own various principalities, their delight has only brought them dismay, despair, and division.

For one year since, the weight of their combined sanctions has not resulted to the economic collapse of Russia nor the ouster of Putin from power even as Europe continues to tetter into recession.

Worse, their proxy war in Ukraine is dangerously getting close to becoming an open war between Russia and the entire West, what with Ukraine, despite all the lies and mind-conditioning “news” daily being propagated about the conflict by the Western corporate media in its favor and against Russia, actually unable to beat Russia in the military front.

From other information sources, even a blind man can discern that Russia is winning its campaign in Ukraine and while it is also suffering losses and casualties, the same cannot compare to those being suffered by Ukraine. One retired US military expert estimated the ratio at 1:8 or, for every Russian soldier killed, they take with them 8 Ukrainians.

Over this bloody fact, even Western military experts have conceded that as far back as October 2022, Russia had already decimated the ‘cream of the crop’ of Ukraine’s officers corps. What was left were raw recruits and yes, foreign mercenaries.

One year into the conflict and it is already estimated that the entire arsenal of Western Europe has been depleted of its stocks even as US Imperialism is said to be now shipping to Ukraine some of its stocks based in Asia and the Middle East.

If Ukraine is “winning” against Russia, why the almost daily incessant “plea” for more arms and aid by President Volodymir Zelensky from the West?

If Ukraine is winning, why the hesitancy by the West, in particular Germany, to send in more arms to Ukraine, particularly its famed ‘Leopard’ tanks?

Primarily because they know that like the majority of heavy armament that the West and the US sent over last year, they would most likely disappear two ways—thru theft by the corrupt Ukraine military so they can be sold in the black market or, to simple destruction by the precise weapons of the Russian Armed Forces. Either way, it is just like pouring water in a bucket shot full of holes.

Additionally, the sending of more sophisticated and more powerful arms to Ukraine would entail also the sending of their own crews—the Ukrainians cannot be expected to operate them with competence.

When this happens, the West is keenly aware that they are now openly declaring war on Russia that would justify Russia to utilize the full might of its military strength, the same strength that defeated Nazi Germany during World War 2.

Such open demonstration of war against Russia by the West would also mean an immediate and radical global re-alignment of forces for what would turn out to be a war between the East and the West.

Now, how would China react under the circumstances?

And yes, the “China factor” is what is actually driving the West and US Imperialism nuts.

For should China gives it full backing to Russia, the war in Ukraine could drag on for 100 years with no benefit to the West or for everyone for that matter.
