Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! So couple points of interest. One is Belgium found a HUGE stockpile of Leopard 1 tanks. They’re older, been in storage, and need a full refurbishment, but guess it’s looking like Krainfeld might be on the receiving end of 200 to 300 Leo 1A3s.
That’s a shitpot of Heavy Metal. (Pic is NOT the tanks-in-question but a representation to give you an idea of -how many- tanks they found… those are Leo 1 Mark One Mod Zero)
Now, couple of key points to this however.
The Leo 1A3, well there’s two types. One is the variant above, but has a large-ish amount of ‘strapped on armor’ bolted to the turret, glacis and other areas that needed uparmoring, due to the lack of armor so to speak.
That’s an upgraded A3 with the applique mounted armor…
As you can see, the bolted on upgrade is on the sides and front glacis of the turret. That’s the Bovington Tank Museum’s A3 being run around at TankFest, a yearly Armor Showcase in England, which is like the ONE place in England that I want to go see. I’ve done everything else there, having lived there for 3 months a ways back. London was still London back then, before it became Londonistan.
So, the problem here is that the Leo 1s are running the old main gun, the L7/L52 105mm tht predated the current 125mm main gun found on all NATO MBTs these days. Now, for those of you who may remember, I broke it down in a waaay earlier blegg that the BIGGEST problem with the 105mm is we ain’t got any more of them rounds to give to anyone. More on that in a second ‘cos that’s the ‘tinfoil hat side’ of things in regards to the ammo…
The 105mm rounds are scarce. Currently, the only large supply is in South Korea. The reason being is the South Koreans are still running the venerable-but-mostly retired (worldwide) M48s that we left with them back in the 50s. They’ve been systematically upgraded over the years, and are now either M48A5 (275 of them) or M48A5K1s (195 of them) and lastly, M48A5K2s (210 of them). ALL 680 of them are -still- using the M48 and it’s 105mm Main Gun.
Now… since the 105mm is sort of kind of -scarce- and South Korea has been very quietly supplying Krainfeld with ammo, mostly via ‘selling it’ to Poland, well… this’s where I break out the tinfoil. According to an article from July of this past year on the Beeb (BBC) Link HERE the SKs have been hesitant to publically support the Krain:
“A recent poll suggested that 56% of South Koreans oppose such assistance, with 42% in support. With elections next year, the government does not want to give the opposition any metaphorical ammunition.”
Guess what happened in South Korea recently?
Link HERE Now, granted violence in South Korean politics isn’t too uncommon, however. The perp was a 67 year old man, and no motive has been released.
Every. Single. News article I read ALL say “the motive is unclear/unknown” My posit on this is that this guy on the record is against being involved in the Krain. Which, to me, makes me think that IF or maybe WHEN the Krainians get the refurbished Leo 1A3s, well, the only source of ammunition is South Korea, and the guy who if elected would more than likely put the kibosh on any sales/transfers of the aforementioned 105mm tank ammo?
I’d call that a potential motive.
I mean who’s to say Krainfeld and his Kokaine Kronies didn’t offer up some disgruntled 67 year old dude to ‘off’ the guy? I mean from MY perspective is that Krainfeld has been more than willing to use extrajudicial means to kill folks outside of the Krain (very Jewish of him innit?). “Ice this guy and we’ll take care of you/your family” or some such thing.
I wouldn’t put anything past Krainfeld. I mean he’s got to be feeling a bit panicked by now
So, yeah, all in all, the Leo 1? Not very impressive by todays standards. Designed in 1956, first fielded in 1965. Literally old/OG AF and with armor that by todays standards? Hell a Bradley or Stryker, hell, even a MaxxPro has heavier, more robust armor.
And we saw how well THOSE lasted this past summer
Heh.
Thing of it is however, as we’ve said all along, with credit to Stalin: “Quantity has a quality all its own.” and in this case? 200-300 fresh armor, even if it’s ultimately disposable?
It’ll keep Krainfeld from dangling from a meathook juuuust a leetle bit longer, and maybe allow him to grift a few more mil here and there that allows him to retire to a non-extraditable country.
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! So. As we’ve all been seeing the disruptions worldwide, in particular in the Gulf. The Houthis have pretty much made it a no-go zone in support of the Palestinians getting really ¡Genocided! by what seems to be a Rabid Zionist group running the show over there.
Good.
I hope the fucking Houthis shut the Izzies down but good. It’s so bad that we’ve been literally controlled by the IPAC and the ADL… what with now any and all questioning of “the narrative” is officially Anti-Semitic. This despite them acting like, you know, ackchual NAZIs
Now, Operation “Cover the Jews” as I call it, well, that coalition sort of kind of shit the bed harder than our current (p)Resident. Those depends got filled so damned quick, I can say I haven’t LOL’d about a foreign policy pantshitting that hard since the Emperor took a shit in front of the (anti)Pope.
For those unfamiliar, a LOT of folks, from the Frogs (French) to the Dots (Indians) decided that their bread is buttered on the opposite side of what the Globull Amerikan Empire-of-Lies wanted, and told everyone Adios! They essentially decided that the Izzies had gone “one Holohoax too far!” (can you say ‘burnt baby-brisket’ anyone?) in their overwhelmingly obnoxious approach, and Noped the Fuck Off. Guess everyone world wide is tired of the Jews… Again Go fucking figure… for a group that’s soooo oppressed, they sure do seem to carry an awful amount of ‘pull’ worldwide.
So, either way, the other day, the Houthis made the tactical error of letting a couple of their speedboats get caught unawares by a couple or so of Seahawks, which in turn blew the three boats and the 10 dudes on board back to Allah with a quickness. The Houthis and Iranian response(s) was essentially: “Oh, so you wanna start sinking boats now do ya?”
Gee…. This apparently led to Queueing up “Operation Cut N Run 3: Don’t Lose The Boat in an (s)Election Year”, with the first one having been “Operation Cut N Run: Iraq, Damn Them Hajiis!” and then followed by “Operation Cut N Run 2: Arm The Afghans”.
It’s going to be replaced by an amphibious assault ship, the USS Bataan, and the USS Carter Hall, a Harpers Ferry-class dock landing ship. It’s going to meet up with the USS Mesa Verde, (already ‘on station’) which is a San Antonio-class amphibious transport dock. Seems that if anything, it sounds like they’re getting ready for a MEU landing (Marine Expeditionary Unit), what with those resources.
God I hope they’re (our current Eee-leet Overlords and ‘Masters of the Analverse’) not that fucking stupid to think that they can “Land the Marines!!!” in Yemen and do anything other than have them die in a Glorious, Gory, Highly Military Manner… either that or the cost of the Bataan is significantly lower dollar wise so we can theoretically afford to lose it.
So, as the title said, “everything is rotten”. When I say that, I mean it literally Case in point:
Two Days Ago I bought a 3.5 pound rack of ground beef at Publix. I broke it down into ‘consumable’ sizes, of about 2x at a pound and a half, and then this ‘un here, at about a pound.
That nasty shit is only 48 hours out of the store plastic wrap!!!
I put the two larger ones in the freezer right then and there, and threw this in the fridge to make dinner last night. Things went a bit sideways planning wise as Sapper, coming home from work, picked us up McAllister’s Deli subs. Quick aside: OMFG, great subs… had me a 12 inch Italian w/the works. Unbelievably good. Anyways…
I figured that the meal planned for last night, I’d make tonight my Beef Stroganoff using the in-the-fridge ground beef… yeah, I know you purist out there’ll bitch, but top sirloin tips (nice n tender) is a bit above the $$$ budget right now, and the ground beef, IF prepped right is as good, if not better.
So tonight after I got off of work from People’s Glorious Tractor Factory #206, I realized I didn’t have the cream of mushroom soup I use, and then when I checked on the beef?
The discoloration I expected. ALL beef is hit with a dash of carbon monoxide keep it all pink and fresh-looking. Which starts to wear off the second you break the ‘factory seal’ so to speak. So a bit o’the brown? OK… next step? The smell test.
Oh shit
The odor that hit me in that baggie flashed me back to when I first hit VBC in Baghdad. The 1st Armored Kids who took the base had apparently thrown a LOT of dead Haj into Saddam’s lakes and ponds rather than burying them. Those that didn’t get eaten by the big assed Carp or whatever the fuck them giant fishies were, well, some of them started being ‘floaters’ which reaaaaally stunk like a motherfucker. THAT is what this meat was stankin’ like.
48 Hours… I wish I had checked the ‘best by’ date on the package before I tossed it… either way though, what with the sale on the 3+ pound packs, the norm is that you got at least a week before full on corpse-ification of yer meat.
That’s not the only thing however. Bag of South Carolina Vidalia onions? Shit started to go rotten and liquified after less than 7 days from date of purchase. And even worse?
A bag of baking potatoes. You ever had taters go rotten on you? Maaaan… Mc-Fuckin’-Nasty me Droogs… those were DOA after about two weeks. Used to be a bag of spuds would last like -forever-… grow some stalks and eyes? Sure… break ’em off, cook ’em up. But these? Pure Dee Bio-Warfare Stank.
As a trained Logistician in moving DotMil Bullets, Beans and Boots from one end of Iraq to the other, I have to say, something ain’t right. KBR, who I had the extreme displeasure of doing this job for, would have lost their ass if a shipment of grub showed up so late as to have like ZERO time left on the “Expiration Clock” so to speak.
Critical Party Elements, nay… Necessary Life Elements such as food/water and probably medical supplies are ALL experiencing exceptionally fucked up delivery times. Even when the roads in Iraq, like Route Irish and MSR Tampa were ‘black’, meaning no-fucking-go zones, we still had trucks ‘push thru’ to make sure #ourguys (and us) didn’t run out of fucking grub. Couple of times in late ’04, it was a near thing. Now the routes? Irish ran in and around BIAP (Baghdad International Airport) and to Downtown Baghdad in the Green Zone, while MSR Tampa (Main Supply Route) was like an Iraqi I-95 North to South.
That’s Tampa there, and as you might notice
That was a truck hauling a POL vehicle we followed to Irbil.
There was never any guardrail or roadside anything, because that would provide a nice hiding place for roadside bombs. The Army ran the M1A tanks with the mine plows down the edge of the road and tear ’em all the hell up out of the ground. Better safe than sorry IMO.
So, point being: We’re seeing (leastways I’m seeing) a serious degradation in the timely moving of critical items absolutelyneeded to continue insuring the stability of our various locales. As it is, we’re strictly one EBT Card Failure away from a Chimpfestivus like they had a couple years ago, which looking back, appears to have been a ‘control test’ to see exactly what would happen when Shaniqua and Donterious’s various DotGov Gibs no longer functions. Reason I say that was there was ZERO accountability for the multi-state EBT failure(s) across the board, which leads me to believe it was intentional.
Add on the current State of the (dis)Union, and we’re a racially radicalized powder keg, sitting on cases and cases of nitro-soaked, sensitized TNT waiting for a match. 1.5 million Illegals (a standing army of epic proportions, no matter the level of training) in the wings who ALSO are now fully reliant on “The GAE System” for their bread and butter, and man, that’s a sure fire recipe for disaster.
Especially IF the theories being bantered about that they are actually an ‘army in the wings’ for the Globalist Fucktards,.
I mean without going into personal numbers, but even with my crew, we’d be hard pressed to stave off 100+ armed enemy combatants. I mean to –really– do some damage, I’d need a goodly long early warning, indirect fire like mortars, and at least 4 belt-feds, plus a copious amount of ammo for said-belt-feds. Hell, I don’t think that any current prep/local support groups can or are able to stop those kind of numbers, especially IF they have “official sanction” with potential ‘police support’… I know for a fact we’d do some serious damage
However…
There’s only so much one can do.
So, Besides keeping your head on a swivel, also plan for the worst case scenario as I have as of late, i.e. bugging the fuck out IF it looks like the local scene is going to go ‘full retard’. Download and PRINT hardcopy maps, with primary, secondary and even tertiary escape routes, as well as areas surrounding your fallback positions.
Make sure you look at secondary non-common travel routes, like train tracks and the like. Old hiking trails in some areas, that a 4 wheeler can traverse. Be aware of physical obstacles, like rivers/streams and conditions pertaining to weather/seasons as well. Is that stream you plan on crossing going to be ankle deep, or is the winter run-off going to swell it to a waist-deep rager? Shit like that is Muy Importante IMO.
Also make sure you have multiple compasses to go with those maps. Make sure at least two of them are quality, like a tritium Cammenga like I have, and used in the DotMil:
Link HERE I ‘stole’ one by not turning it in (paid the statement of charges) when I got out of the DotMil, and acquired another later on down the road. Remember, especially with gear like this, One is None.
GPS and coolio whizz-bang gear is fun and neat, but also they need (unless it’s sooper-high end solar powered) batteries. Like the Garmin HERE Also, Hi-Tech tends to be a lil bit less resilient than old tech. Throw your Garmin at a brick wall, see how it works, as opposed to a solidly built compass capiche?
So, that’s the lesson(s)/observation(s) for today. One last thing I would suggest is take advantage of ANY food sales on canned goods that you can, while you can. 3 months ago, Chef-Boy-R-Dee was 10 cans for $10, or a buck-a-can. Gross, but food is food amiright? Goyslop, but it’ll last a looong time.
Today it was 4 cans for $5, or $1.25 a can.
Like I said, start stocking DEEP(er) if you haven’t already. Ain’t no time like today, ‘cos there sure as shit might NOT be a tomorrow.
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Took a few days off as I’m plum run down. The Redhead Nuke has been going full speed since her feetz hit the ground on Christmas Day “…It can’t be bargained with. It can’t be reasoned with. It doesn’t feel pity, or remorse, or fear! And it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead!“
That’s rather appropo IMO.
I’m getting too old for this shit. Truthfully, it’s been fun, but maaan… a highly energetic 5 about to be 6 year old? I’ve literally been trying to run her ragged around the pond in the back yard. She like to chase the ‘poke-poke’ birds as we call them (they’re some sort of small crane that ‘poke’ at the itty-bitty fishies in the pond) around the pond…
It barely scratches the ‘energy coefficient’ so to speak… she’s always red-lining. And Me? Worn the fuck out.
So, as of late couple of good frens asked me to upgrade some of their rifles, as I do a side hustle of building/gunsmithing on the side. Not enough to require licensing, but IF the need came up, any needed FFL transfers were done thru GunGirl’s shop to keep everything copacetic on the Law side. So it’s been a while, but my buddy Cowboy, who owns the ranch that we occasionally visit (horses…absolutely gorgeous horses) got himself an AR in 300BLK.
A pretty standard 16in barreled 300BLK. M-16 BCG and some sort of ‘tacticool’ rear stock…
Now, I started the disassembly, and when I pulled out the front upper receiver retaining pin, it >popped< right out…
No detent pin, no spring. The pin itself came out completely. The ones you see in the pic above are there because I replaced? or should I say “installed for the very first time”? the proper detent pin/spring combo, PLUS I also had to replace the upper receiver retaining pin as well, as the pin?
Made of fucking plastic man! And nope, I wasn’t ‘off’ on this… to the point, we subjected it to the burn test:
Yeah, it’s on fire. Bit blurry ‘cos it’s hard to get the shot with one hand holding the now-on-fire retaining pin, and I edited out Wirecutters email in the background so anyways…
I decided to do a full check and damn…
Every. Single. Lower. Part. is made of plastic. Trigger Assembly:
Who the fuck makes a sear out of fucking plastic!?! Oh. My. God.
Seriously… My first AR I built waaaaaaay back in the day I went ‘cheap’ and got some used parts, to include the sear… I was stationed at Fort Hood and went to the range, specifically the civvie/rod and gun club range when the Army still had such things… About 4 mags in, the ‘tooth’ on the sear broke off and I ‘rode the lightening’ for the last 10-12 rounds… Range control –totally– lost its shit on me thinking I had an illegal machine gun, until they inspected (with me) and I lern’t a valuable lesson about what you stuff into the guts of your rifle.
In this case? Cowboy got it for $500, about $40 off of retail:
The guilty party to this is American Tactical
They’re known for polymer/metal lowers. It’s not a bad lower TBH as I did have one. Bought it and used it for a while, but just didn’t think it’d be a good long-term thing to have a poly-lower so I sold it loooong ago.
My problem with ATI on -this- particular model is that nowhere in the description of the rifle on their web page mentions anything about the lower internals being made of plastic!!! It’d be one thing to tell people but nope… even in the full description of the specifications (in detail):
Forgive a bit of awkward formatting, it’s hard to snip all of that and keep it all in line. But yeah
If you know anyone who’s got one of these, tell ’em to either upgrade the guts, and that means ALL of them, to include even the mag release and the mag release button (no shit!) or go get a Palmetto State “Poors” which at this point IMO would be a safer, longer lasting bet than this thing. I mean the lower itself IS metal… maybe T-7075…..
BUT considering the fact they don’t mention what the is made of in the spec sheet?
I wouldn’t count on this thing necessarily if the chips were down and it’s gone to “full retard”. ESPECIALLY if it’s still got the factory ‘fantastic plastic’ garbage-parts. I mean IF it’s all you’ve got, then use it to kill someone to get their weapon, as it’s got to be better IMO, YMMV.
I’ll update you all after I get done with the rebuild on it, and after it’s had a couple hunnerd rounds thru it and we see if it’s worth a shit or not.
Now on ‘other things’ The fuckin’ Kraine man… Buncha fuckin ‘bastards man. I really hope Vlad decides that he’s sick and fucking tired of their shit, and gasses the whole rotten fucking country… like seriously. Krainfeld needs to be gassed like his ancestors, as he deserves nothing less. Bad enough that he’s allowed the slaughter of over what I think is probably half a million ‘real’ Krainians, thereby utterly destroying the country demographically but now? A new low… this pic is from a vidya shot by Russian troops who took a trench… they found one guy still alive and just chilling:
A Downs Syndrome kid… Holy. Fucking. Hell. They. recruited. a. Downs. Syndrome. kid. Let that sink in.
See, I studied Art Education, and at one point did some student teaching, specifically with mentally challenged kids. I dealt a lot with Downs Kids… most of whom don’t have a mean bone in their body… all they want is to love and be loved from my experience(s).
The fact that Krainfeld is snatching up DKs and other folks who should never be anywhere near a battlefield? FUUUUUCK.
There’s a special Hell for Krainfeld and his Enablers and Ilk.
May God bring true Biblical level Justice down on him AND his entire family… every. single. last. one. of. them. May they suffer the agony of Hellfire and Damnation for all eternity.
Whew Didn’t mean to get all Old Testament on y’all… shit like that’s been a burr under my saddle for a week or so since I saw it…
For a last note on the “Condition of Empire” and whatnot, Simplicius had an extremely valid point in regards to the current shit show in the Persian Gulf (h/t WiscoDave):
No kidding.
Now, for homework, I’m sure what’d be interesting is to go back over the past what? Month, Month and a half since they launched “Operation Protect the Jew”? Figure ALLLLL them stories about them shooting down the missiles and drones?
See, for each one brought down, figure 3x that number of interceptors that were used to bring down that one drone/missile. Which means that you can pretty quickly figure out how many rounds they’ve supposedly used on each ship, and, as I mentioned in an earlier blegg, how many rounds would/should they have left?
I mean one commenter said that max, they had 90 warshots for each ship before they needed RTB to get reloaded. Pretty sure some slick-math-kid out there could tell us how many have been shot, how many should be left onboard, and then, well…
My hunch is Simplicius is onto something As we’ve found out, almost every single weapons system we have is pretty much vaporware, unless we’re using it against sandal-wearing goatherds (who BTW still kicked our asses).
Have to see. Also, word from the Kraine is that the retaliatory strike for the Krainian strike earlier on Belgrod, well the Russians hit the “…Kharkiv Palace Hotel at 2 Independence Avenue. It turned out that a meeting of American generals and in particular US security and intelligence expert Robert McCreery was planned there. This hotel is generally very popular among traveling SBU officers and high ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. “
Have to watch if we see any fatal car/aircraft accidents in the next couple of weeks where we’ve lost some Generals/Colonels and the assorted piss-boys that usually accompany such luminaries.
So, as the Year Closes, I wish you all a Happy New Year, and Pray we all make it to the next one, Insh’Allah or God Willing as it were… My absolute thanks to you all for all your kind words, thoughts and support, both financial and other to you from Gretchen, Myself, Red, and Adriana.
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Nothing sez “overworked” than a stress fracture on my hoof Aye? Pressure/stress fracture on the leg foot from alllll the cooking/cleaning that I’ve been up to over the past? two months? including Thanksgiving?
Yeah, been a busy couple of weeks to say the least. We did Christmas Day at Gretchen’s Parents place, and it went great. The foot hurts like a motherfucker, but hey? Foot pain is part and parcel of being a grunt… We had a lot of fun… well Gran#1 did, me and Gretchen? Notsomucho… not that we didn’t… it was more to the fact of having to make sure -everything-… gifts, food, parents and Gran were all doing the right thing, at the right time.
Gretch spent most of her time being ‘Johnny-on-the-Spot’ for her ‘rents, as well as ‘herding the cat’ known as the Redheaded Atomic Firestorm, AKA Gran#1.
Me? I was on the Cooks Detail per usual.
Missing from the pic is the mashed taters, as I went “Full Philistine” and made the Bob Evans Nukular Mashed Taters…
There’s only so much one dood can do in a compressed day…. I mean I think I did well… 3 pound boneless Turkey Breast (perfectly done), a three pound spiral cut baby Ham, my super-seekrit Dressing (which I’ll poast the recibe on in a minute at the bottom of the page as I’ve gotten a LOT of requests for it) and Garlic Green Beans…
Needless to say, I pulled it allllll off and everything came out of the oven/off the stove precisely on time so’s everything was fresh and piping hot.
The only major fuckup was I forgot to grab the bag of frozen-to-be-baked sourdough rolls when we left the Haus… dammit… Leaving the casa we were bringing so much bullshit I overlooked the rolls… pisses me off, but no one was overly upset… One of those “woulda been nice if” sort of things…
The gift opening went well. Gran#1 helped Pop-Pop (Gretchen’s Da) open my plaque I made for him:
…and that was the gift of the night… Dad was really happy about it… like majorly. For those who missed it:
Dad tripped the fuck out over it, as he’d lost/thrown away most of his shit from being ‘in’… he loved that I got the rockers made and it was the gift of the night.
Then Gran#1 got some ‘stuff’ as well… a couple of games, one being the classic ‘Operation’ and then no shit, SIMON if you can believe it:
Maaaaaaaaaaan… lot of memories from Simon. MomUnit and DeadDad had it back in the late 70s. They and their frens used to get stoned and -try- to play it… they had that version above, whish is the 1978 1st Edition. The new one is significantly smaller, but works the same… do far my best is 15 light/number combinations. The thing is cool, but frustrating AF…
The ‘RAF’ as we’ll call her for brevity (see above) got a pair of matching pink Sketchers that her GiGi (Gretchen) has… now all she needs is a pair of matching black leggings and top, and we’ll have a “Mini-Me” situation unfolding. And BTW, if you look in the background of this pic, you can see Dad wearing his Sailor Whites right behind the RAF’s head… I’m really glad I got to do up his service plaque… he’s called 2x times already today and mentioned how thrilled he is to have it… Makes me happy AF to have been able to do it for him TBH.
Moving on:
As far as international ‘stuff’ happening/current stoopid: It seems the Krainians managed to take out a BIG landing craft, specifically the Novocherkassk, a 320 Foot Amphibious Assault Ship.
It can carry up to 10 tanks and 340+/- personnel. The ship’s regular crew is 87 people. It got hit by what folks are saying are the Storm Shadow missiles, which were supplied by the Brits and the French.
Blew the ever-living FUCK out of it from the vidyas I’ve seen. It was docked and from the size of the explosion, it reminded me of the Arizona going full retard when the Japs hit the magazine on the Big A… got me a hunch something similar happened to the Novy, as it too went full retard and blow’d da fuq up HUGELY!
Credit where credit is due, Good Op. Not that it’ll mean anything except hurt the Russian Morale and Pocketbook, as I imagine that a boat like that costs a metric shit-ton of Rubles. On the other hand, word is that the two planes that launched the attack? A pair of SU-24 Fencers:
These being a knock-off Soviet version of the US FB-111. According to reports, they were shot down during the second attack run. They literally went and launched successfully, blew up the boat, RTB (returned to base) refueled and rearmed, and went back the same exact route for a second strike
Say fucking what!?!
NO IDEA what genius came up with that particular plan?
Tell you whut, NOW the Krainians are down MOAR two planes… Utterly Irreplaceable planes for that matter… I highly fucking doubt that they’ll ever see F-16 #1 anytime in the next year, if ever… That’s just my call… fucking morons I swear.
I mean it’s been a looooong minute since they had any significant amount of Aircraft at their disposal, and it seems they didn’t heed Han Solo’s admonition of “Don’t get cocky!” and decided to try and run another attack, the same day, using the same route.
Even at the lowest level (Infantry), we had beaten into our heads never use the same ingress/egress on an Op. Basic Operational Security 101. Something the Krainians apparently failed… again. If they know HOW/WHERE you got in? They’ll cover it after the fact.
That route you used to ESCAPE/EGRESS? Same dealio. Might as well catch someone else lacking in the brains department who decides to do the same thing again, which leads in most cases to a bad case of the “deads” which brings us to the aforementioned Fencers, which are probably toast/scrap at this point.
In fact, shit like this makes me question the basic IQ of the Krainians. Like when right before the BIG counter-offensive, where they had all these front line looking motherfuckers holding one finger up to their lips like “Sssssh!”
As if Ivan didn’t know this shit was coming
Makes me truly wonder if these guys are in Somalia-Levels of IQ Dumbassery? It’d make sense as I don’t think anyone with an IQ over 70 would be doing what these fucking retards are
Jes’ Sayin’
Either way, I do applaud them for getting it done. However, it’s tempered by the notes that followed (via 3rd Party Sources) that they fucked up and got two irreplaceable aircraft ‘Aced-Out’ so to speak… never mind if the crews lived or not either… I mean wow… great publicity, as I can’t find any Western Media who isn’t putting this ‘on blast’ (as if it mattered at this point) but man, talk about prolonging the end?
Then, in the Med, after ALL our ‘allies’ essentially told us to ‘pound sand’ regarding the non-stop unending Israeli Defense bullshit, well, like I wrote about a couple of days ago, this lil bit popped up:
What!?! Waitaminute Wait One…………… FIRST Missiles? This has to be bullshit
Mainly because going back just a few weeks ago the DotMil was trumpeting how they were shooting down Houthi ‘stuff’ on the regular… I got me a hunch that now, since folks like me and CDR Salamander (linked substack) have been talking about potential ammunition shortages, the impossibility of reloads, and the general fucked-uppedness of the current US DotMil Navy sit-rep there in the Med, that now they say that they just NOW started throwing ABMs at the incoming Houthi ‘stuff’
So which is it?
Did you or did you not stop a bunch of Hostile Houthi Hardware Hightailing it at Hebrew Hosts via shooting them down with all them hi-speed/lo-drag SM-2 missiles? Or was it all bullshit?
Inquiring minds want to know, because as I read the FauxNews story, and it’s sort of ‘murky’ if you will. My own opinion is that since it went ‘public’ on just how much ammo these tin cans have, (or lack that thereof/reloading capacity) and how quickly that shit can get spent, nevermind the fact that at-sea reloads? Nope… shit ain’t happening…
In fact, I’m sure some Navy PIO (pubic information orifice, no misspellings fyi) puke decided they needed to reassure us, the fucking taxpayers who’re footing this retard-bill per usual, that No, they haven’t been using and expending the sooper expensive missiles that require the boat to go home to be reloaded in the defense of the Yids!
Nope, notthose missiles…
We’ve been using these missiles…
Nothing to see here, these aren’t the droids you’ve been looking for, pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, the check is in the mail and that broad was dead when I got here I promise…
I’d swear they’re gaslighting us, but since gas stoves and dryers under our current occupational dick-tater-shit wants to outlaw gas ‘anything’ I must me sorely mistaken amiright?
You tell me… All I can do is sit here, be thankful my wife, best bro, and Gran are safe and cool, and that I have enough food and ammo to keep it that way. Let me know if you think I’m wrong or insane in the comments
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Merry Christmas Eve to one and all. A celebration of the birth of The One. Hopefully, you and yours enjoy a Magnificent Evening of Peace, Love and Good Fellowship as it was intended.
We here at The Casa had a wonderful day and then evening. Prepping for our visit with Gran#1, as well as the trip up to see Gretchen’s Parents. We’re bringing an entire Christmas Day Dinner with all the fixin’s, Turkey, Mini-Ham, Dressing (my sausage based specialty one) Green Beans and Mashed Taters.
I also got Dads Christmas Gift done today finally.
I made him a service plaque. I had the patches made up with his name and his specialty, Machinist Mate 2nd Class and his boats that he served on. He served during Korea, but was in the Med the majority of his time in. The two boats he was on were as seen, the Zellars, DD-777 a Sumner Class Destroyer known as the “Zippin Z”
and the Bailey, DD-713 a Gearing Class Destroyer
Both boats were sold to Iran in 1970, and 1971 respectively. Last notice on either of them was that they got eventually scrapped in the late 70s.
Needless to say, they don’t make the rockers for them anymore BUT I did find a company in Newport News that did custom work… go figure… Navy Central there… and it -didn’t- cost me an arm and a leg… The plaque I painted up myself, with Gretchen helping ‘cos the carpal tunnel gives me some mighty bad shakes, so she did the fine-line work for the gold paint.
I’m sure he’ll love it. Reason it took so long to get done and at the last minute was the plaque took forever to get here via the Zon, and the rank patch?
OMFG.
I started this project at the beginning of November just in case of retardation like that… Everything started to come together… hell, the custom patches? Like less than 10 days after ordering… the rank patch?
It got so bad I ended up sending some very nasty emails threatening grievous harm/financial impact if they didn’t get the fucking thing in the mail to me tout-le-fucking-suite. This was after multiple phone calls where I was assured that it was going out ‘any day now’… Told ’em I’m slag them to all my DotMil folks, to include the Navy Times, and see how that affects the biz?
Fucking thing got here like 4 days after that. Which was on the 20th. When I ordered it on November7th!!!!! Whiskey Tango Foxtrot!?! Gah! THIS is what we speak of when we talk about eventual cascading systemic failure(s) amiright? And yep, the phone calls? All handled by Muh Diversity! females who probably promptly forgot all about me and my order the second the phone was hung up.
Fuck ’em. I got it done, that’s what matters.
Now, for dinner, we went a bit overboard. We had a gift box of Omaha Steaks that we broke out the bacon-wrapped Filet Mignons from, and Sapper and I got the surf to go with the turf, namely half a pound of scallops, and three Maine (theoretically) Lobster Tails… $10 for the scallops, and the tails were $6 a throw… small, but considering the “Royal Level” of the eats?
I mean Hell, it’s once a year.
(quick aside: This may be the last year we get a chance to do this, so, I’d say it’s time to Carpe That Fuckin’ Diem Aye?)
A minor splurge for premium grub either way can’t be beat. The blackened filet BTW isn’t burned, that’s the spice crust that’s seared on… the steak itself was magnifico… the side was Mac n Cheese and a slice of cheesy Texas Toast that I added a splash of garlic salt to before I hit it in the air fryer.
As far as gifties?
I got Sapper the appropriate t-shirt as you can see…
Gretchen got me a really cool bowling shirt with “Big Country” embroidered on it, as well as some new under-mah-pants, and Sapper and I teamed up to get her a purse she wanted (my gift), as well as a matching clutch/mini-purse (Sapper’s gift) which made her exceptionally happy-happy.
All in all, a mellow, thoroughly enjoyable Christmas was had by all… I hope and Pray y’all have a similar experience, and I’ll be back probably the day after tomorrow, as the aforementioned day is rather jam-packed.
Merry Christmas From Myself, Gretchen and Sapper More Later Big Country
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Busy-Busy up ’round here yonder… Gift Wrapping and cleaning, and setting up Gran#1 New Bed over the past two days. She’s outgrown the toddler bed… actually has been for a while. Budgetary concerns also was part of the equation until Gretchen had a multi-chick gig that paid out $550 for the Bride, Maid of Honor and Mother of the Bride.
And unlike some past clients she’s had, they were great, left a great review as well as a $100 tip on top. That was about $200 an hour +/- for about 3 hours work. Great if you can get it. She’s now alsobooked solid for the New Year… before, during and after. So post-gig, she sprung for a new Queen sized bed:
Again, the bane of Modern Man: “Some Assembly Required”
We already had a mattress for it, a Caspar no less from when we (Gretch and Me) upgraded from a Queen to a Cali-King as we’re both needing the space I’m BIG and she’s an Amazon… As far as assembly? All 10,000 pieces-parts? Sapper and I got it done, and then Gretchen busted out the other ‘things’ that she got (the comforter as you can see) and matching sheets, shams, pillows, all the girly-girl stuff you can imagine. You can’t really tell, but the walls have a ton of silver glitter mixed into the paint as well, so the place ‘shimmers’ when the fairy-lights on the back wall start running through the program…
Hey man, I just live here amiright?
Other things: Concerned American put it up as a favor as I was talking to my Man G, who runs Dissident Rags, who’s got a spot over on the sidebar.
I don’t make any commission, in fact HE just gifted me a coffee mug one time as a “Thank You” for the writing and laughs. He did it custom as seen here:
My name and the Regimental (Rakkasan) Motto “Ne Desit Vitus” or “Let Valor Not Fail”. It was really decent of him to do this, and so I threw him up on the sidebar. Unfortunately, he let me know thibngs have been tough (as they are everywhere) lately and he might have to shut down.
So give him a hit and see if you like any of his gear. He’s got some great designs IMO. Hopefully we can help one of /ourguys over a hump right? Besides, I don’t have anyone to fill that spot if he closes down…
Other biddness: Lots of ‘Muh Diversity’ fun and games going on out there. Art Sido has been innudated with so many Monkeyshines, I swear he’s going to need another writer just to keep up. His house is “Dissident Thoughts” where he’s got some good writing going on as of late.
I also got ‘in’ on a deal to test out some new Ammunition. Sapper found a request for Bloggers and Social Media folks to test out some new PMC Defense Ammunition. The company that asked is Bulk Munitions and he sent me a link that had me put in my pertinent info. Wasn’t sure if this was a scam, but what the hell?
I got an “Approval” email and instructions on how to get my BeeBees. Less than 5 days later:
100 Rounds of the new PMC SFX 124gn Hollow points.
It’s selling on Bulk Munitions for $34.00 a box. It’s a Jacketed Hollow point, supposed to be waterproof, and meets FBI/Law Enforcement standards for duty requirements. After Christmas, I plan on doing some Range Therapy, and I’ll do a review then.
I’ll probably only use one box tho, as 124gn JHP “cop rounds” are expensive and keeping the additional 50 available for spicy times is recommended. Either way, we’ll see. I don’t have access to any ballistic gel or the like (I wish!) but I have seen some recibes on YewToob so maybe?
Have to see what the ingredients are.
It would be stellar if I could home-brew it. Got me some stuff I’d like to test personally. I mean the majority of munitions out there, if there’s a bullet, I’m sure somewhere someone did a vidya of it being used into some BG.
As far as the rest of the world? Meh. Let. It. All. Burn. Selfish I know, but if’n it’s not affecting me and mine directly?
Leave me alone, just to enjoy the Season. We did a ‘mini-tree’ today, as opposed to the usual large one, as we don’t know how Beans AKA Penis the Cat would be. Last thing I want is a tree with allllll sorts of heirloom and nice decorations to get put up, and at 0300, hear the crash and smash, followed by Gretchen crying b/c her Great Grandma’s heirloom crystal decoration bit the big ‘un. AT which point I have to make mittens out of the kittah. So we went teeny-tiny, but still pretty.
So Merry Christmas if’n I slow down on Ye Olde Poastage. I’m probably still going to keep throwing ‘stuff’ up and keep following the usual suspects. Otherwise it’s time for Netflix and Chill with Gretch, and some Nog with Rum.
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Ok… so the past two-three days was a stone cold nasty. NO IDEA what it was (although I’ve heard thru the grapevine there’s a nasty stomach bug oot and aboot) but after publishing the poast on Tuesday? Night? I ended up in the latrine every. single. hour. on. the. hour.
Like “set your watch to it” sort of thing…
Needless to say, didn’t get a whole lot of rest that night. Wednesday I pretty much got up, and did the barest minimum to qualify the day as a “work day” as truthfully, I was a mess. The nice thing about The People’s Glorious Tractor Factory #206 is that IF you are so fortunate as to be ahead in production, one can slack a bit on days like this, just as long as when the end of the work-call you’ve done enough for ‘spec’ so to speak… “They Pretend to Pay Us, While We Pretend to Work” I think is the applicable phrase… Anyways…
Managed to stave off dehydration via the BritMRE Hydration packets… I have a boatload of them, and they’re really good, never mind actually tasty… the Raspberry being exceptionally good… two or three of those kept me from needing a trip to the ER for dehydration as I was in a bit of a state of bother as the Brits would have said.
So, ‘came to’ today, relatively operational, but still…
Been working too hard and all that rot. Have to get a bit of a better balance. The great news is that my membership to the YMCA via the VA Move Program came through. That’s the fatbody program where they have you go through alllll sorts of fiery hoops in order to get a 3 month membership paid for via Uncle Sugar at the “Y”. It’s renewable after the initial 3 months… which I intend on making sure as joining the “Y”?
OMFG expensive To join as a ‘single’ at 30+, is a $29 joining fee, and $56 a month. Not for nothing, but that’s pricey for a DotGov subsidized program. I belonged to the “Y” under the “Lance ‘One-Nut’ Armstrong” Foundation when I had Cancer that time, however, it was luike for 2 months only which to me? Seemed a bit paltry considering the amount of bux that One Nut had been gathering for his foundation.
The Grift™ is apparently Universal, and Everywhere.
So, a BIG reason I’m so pumped tho is the one in question that I joined? It has a pool… Lap pool no less, plus exercise plans for the pool. All Low Impact which is what I need at my stage of the game. Lets face it… I’m no longer 30… hell 40? Shiiiiiit… 50 is now in the fucking rear view as well, so I need to realize and adjust. I start tomorrow as that’s also the beginning of the days off we’ve been given.
Now, other things besides the obvious ‘stuff’ we got going on… Colorado? Don’t know, don’t care. They’re retarded in that by tipping their hand this early it’s going to make it uglier than they can even imagine… Art Sido did a GREAT Writeup HERE
Whatevz… This shit’s going to happen ALLLLL over the place Up til motherfuckers start getting shot.
Leviathan, for ALL it’s power, has no idea the level of shit they’re playing with. Personally, I’m content to let it all burn, as Myself? OrangeManBad didn’t do shit to stop anything because of the (((influence))) of his worthless Son-In-Law… let him and theirs rot.
However, there’s a LOT of folks who aren’t as forgiving as me…
I’d say they’re the ones to watch out for Jes’ Sayin’ as I’m wont to do.
Otherwise, It’s Christmas! Gretchen and I did a couple of Gifties for Gran#1, Big K as I’ll call her as OtherGrans don’t want me putting too much info out there, which I can respect. She’s got a MAJOR mermaid thing going on… so one of the ‘we made this gifties’ we did was Gretchen found a set of “Whale Tail” clothes hangers on Amazon:
Now, those are very very “Cape Cod-ish” if you… I will grew up with that sort of ‘decoration’ in the relatives house(s), especially on and or ‘down on the Cape’…
Gretchen and I however, changed things up a bit:
According to OtherGrans, Gran#1 (5yrs old going on 6) has a bad habit of coming home from school and dropping her gear -wherever- as opposed to hanging it up/putting it away. Big K –might– be encouraged to hang up her shytte IF she’s got a “Mermaid Tail Hanger” to do it on, which is how we’re looking at it.
I did the color selection and initial design, Gretch did the scales and detail work as my pseudo-Parkinson’s has me shaking too much to do anything better…
Hopefully she likes them/it… OtherGrans think this might be the trick to getting her to hang up her shit when she gets home from school… we’ll have to see.
Otherwise, all our Gifts Via The Zon arrived to Adriana’s current residence, and of course we’ve gotten ZERO acknowledgement, despite having dropped more than we could realistically afford. I’m not sure how to approach this non-violently.
It’s killing me literally
So I’ll leave it at that, as I got enough ‘rocks in my ruck’ right now, and don’t need to double down on ‘teh stoopid’ of the Baby Daddy and the Crypt Keeper. I’m soooooooooo over it especially knowing there’s NO LEGAL RECOURSE as the entirety of the system there is corrupt as FUCK. Hell… we got a mocking message from Dumbcunt LAUGHING at us, as the woman who go appointed to the Juvenile Judge Position after OUR “Judge” got nailed for corruption?
HER fucking Public Lawyer assigned to her by the courts as she was indigent and broke as a joke. Apparently, said “New Judge” (according to DumbCunt) told her that she’d be getting Addy back shortly as now that she’s the Judge, she can do whatever she wants to insure Addy “…gets back to her Mama where she belongs…”
I’m not even going to go that deep into it except to call “Bullshit”… DumbCunt at best is a bit of a fantasist, and I think this’s part of it. Hell, recently, it’s come to light that DumbCunt is an actual prostitute as well as a cam-whore. She’s soooo far gone it’s insane… her BF (10 years younger than her!) of the current timeframe is also a Big-Time Weed Dealer in Western Virginia, and tied into some bad people from what I’m getting, so I have a hunch her ‘shelf life’ is in the double digits month-wise…
Right now I’m banking on the Crypt Keeper to cash in as no one else in that Family (Baby Daddy Side) is capable, either physically, legally or financially of taking care of Addy long term. We’ll have to see.
I gotta cut this off… Getting angry AF here. More Later (Objectively Speaking) Big Country\
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Lots of ‘things’ going out there in the world… too much happening. To the point that there’s so much spin out there that even -I’m- getting Dizzy AF. A ‘Proper Analysis’ is just going by the wayside in favor of the usual Propaganda from “the Usual Suspects” i.e. The Ministries of Lies and (of course) Propaganda to the point the no one seems to know what’s REALLYgoing on at any given point.
I mean we know know for certain that there’s always been a ‘certain amount of bullshit’ out there. The JFK shewtin’, The MLK shewtin’, UFOs, MK-Ultra and a shitload from the column marked ‘other’ have always been the subject of Obfuscation by the Powers That Be or whatever the ‘name/flavor of the week’ that “they” keep being referred to. “Knowledge is Power” and by keeping the truth away from folks, that in particular keeps the “POWER” in the hands of a certain select few, namely the aforementioned Powers That Be.
Truth of the matter is, ‘They’ like it that way, and the majority of ‘normies’ out there like it that way too, as in many instances “Ignorance is Bliss”. Hell, even me, myself, and I enjoy a certain amount of ignorance on some subjects… in particular lately having seen Twinkie-the-Kid getting assblasted in the Hearing Room? File that under ‘things I wish I’d really not looked at’…
Now, having said that, there are some subjects that’ve become come up as of late. Some of which that are Incontrovertible Facts that while unpleasant, well, truthfully a fact doesn’t care… it just is.
One of them is that the MAJORITY of the West, the West being defined as NATO and the US/GAE, is almost completely out of ammunition due to the gross expenditures in the Krain over the past two years of ‘teh stoopid.’ And owing to the greed, lack of foresight, and general malaise that Leviathan allowed to happen, there’s damned near no way in hell to replace nor produce the amount of ammunition that’s needed now for what has become a two-front war, meaning the Krain and the ¡Genociding! of the Palestinians by the Israelis.
It’s so bad that 20,000 shells earmarked for Krainfeld and his Koterie of Kocaine Snorting Klowns were re-routed to the IDF to assist in the wonton slaughter of lil kids and women. Can’t have them running out of ammo before they finish the job donchaknow?
Now… a BIG part of the reason for the lack of manufacturing capacity is besides the downsizing, offshoring and selling off the mechanisms and means of production (the tooling, presses and whatnot) there’s a relatively unmentioned issue about the ability to expand the production at the preexisting facilities. That being that the arsenals themselves?
Well according to a paper done by 1st LT (of the Turkish DotMil no less!) “Optimizing the Capacity and Operation of US Army Ammunition Production Facilities” written back in 2002, (link HERE) there are currently 16 Arsenals in the US that provide ALL of the primary manufacturing for the DotMil Kaboomie-Boom.
The names and production are in figure 2:
Now, the acronyms above for ‘Management’ of the Plants: GOCO: Government Owned Contractor Operated GOGO: Government Owned Government Operated
then, under ‘Mission’ LAP: Load Assemble and Pack (meaning where all the ‘stuff’ gets put together for shipment to the various locations, like the Krain and/or storage stateside.
Per an extract from the paper: “In summary, of the 16 facilities under review (See Table 2), two are GOGO “hard iron” arsenals that manufacture ordnance items, three are GOGO AAPs, and 11 are GOCO AAPs.” (AAP = Army Ammunition Plant(s)
The paper is TBH fascinating. A great breakdown of how even back in 2002, a Turk LT was pointing out how fucked up the situation was then vis-à-vis ammunition and production for the GAE. Lots of good info in there, but I’ll leave it for you to go over it if you want…
Sorry, tangent… anyways, back to the point:
One point NOT mentioned but I’ve seen in a few places is the age of a LOT, in fact almost ALL of our Arsenals.
Just as an Example? Our Oldest? That’s Watervliet Arsenal where we have like the only arsenal that makes High-Caliber Cannon barrels? It started in 1813. That’s 210 years ago. And for that reason, there’s a problem. A HUGE number of the buildings and whatnot on the facility itself are on the National Historic Register which means they’re (theoretically) INVIOLATE.
Yeah yeah, I know, ‘true emergency’ and all that, but if there’s one thing we know is that once something like that happens, it takes an Act of God to reverse it… which means the majority of our Arsenals, while yes, they can keep doing what they’re doing, at the same rate that they’ve always been doing it (too slow for todays lesson) but it means that they’re never going to be able to ramp up for all the Wars that Leviathan seems to be salivating over/provoking.
And building entirely new facilities?
Who’s going to ‘front’ the ducats for that? I mean the majority of companies out there are hesitant AF to build for-sure profitable ‘stuff’ however, the “amount invested versus time to become profitable” means most companies won’t risk the $$$. Add on also, that depending on the opponent and type of war initiated, whomever builds this sort of business has to know that eventually, it’ll be a target. Be it of terrorism or flat-out bombing/nuke/NBC or what have you… the “Bad Guys” sure as hell don’t want their opponents to be able to make the means to blow them up.
Just like Rheinmetall talking about building a Tank Manufacturing plant in the Krain… Yeeeeeeeah… best of luck there Herman… Ivan’ll blow that fucking place to pieces-parts no matter -who- it theoretically built it/owns it… We blew the ever-loving shit out of Germany, the Ruhr River Valley in particular to cripple the German War Manufacturing capacity.
So, the Logistics and Expense make it Prohibitive for us to realistically build new Kaboomie-Boom Manufacturing Plants. No one seems to want to invest in it, which is a huge thing, nevr mind that IF they were to actually build a new plant?
Who are they going to get to work there?
Skilled machinists and guys who work at places like that for the most part have aged the fuck out. Wirecutter used to work at one of the plants back in the day… guys like Phil are also in the “Fuck you, going fishing” part of their careers… in fact the majority of High Schools no longer even offer a shop class which is where a lot of the mechanically inclined kids got their introduction to that sort of work… Hell, even me, I’m now 54. Ain’t no fucking way no fucking how am I willing to start working in some Arsenal, despite having some ability to run a lathe… badly mind you, but I -do- know how, which the majority of kids now have zero fucking clue as to what a Lathe IS never mind how to run one.
The logisitics to do -any- of these plans at this point? Not seeing it coming to fruition anytime soon. Which then brings me to another thing I saw the other day. Now, this’s a bit long, but RTWT:
1/USS Carney Shot Down More Missiles, Drones Over Longer Period
— Sal Mercogliano (WGOW Shipping) 🚢⚓🐪🚒🏴☠️ (@mercoglianos) October 21, 2023
Now, as you scroll down, he point out something:
And right there, that’s the crux of the matter
The Navy, since October has been shooting down, almost on the daily Houthi cruise missiles, drones and what have you. Simplicius put a few fantastic charts of what seems to have been ‘shakin’ in the Area of Operations as of late, one being the ships in the Area, as well as the state of affairs regarding actions taken on the defense.
This pic here shows about three weeks worth of incidents, from November 27th, to December 15th:
The next one shows the current (approximate) number of boats (to include Chinese) operating in the area since December 17th:
According to this, there’s only 4 DDG Arleigh Burke class ships in the area. One the aforementioned Carney, the other three being the Mason, Gravely and Stethem. That means that in total, there’s 360 Vertically Launched SM-2 missiles available…
Leastways there was 360 available.
Now? Tough call. And even tougher? According to Sal (the Twitter Dood who’s poast I have above) He states “…the ability to reload VLS cells, the nature of the tubes require the ships to be in calm water at anchor or pierside and it is time consuming. As of yet, no method has been developed to reload VLS at sea.” as there’s no other way to do it available.
Used to be that they had a ship called a destroyer tender that could do the job, but as Sal also states in the thread:
Is there anything that our DotGov and DotMil haven’t fucked up in the past 30+ years!?!I suppose “Not having gotten us nuked by someone who’s pissed off at us” –might– count on the plus side, but judging from past actions, both in the WAAAAY past and even current past, I’d chalk that up to “Dumb Fucking Luck” at this point.
Now, I know I’ve been going a while here, and yeah, I made the point that we appear to be well on our way to “one serious incident away” from a major war due to our own inability to have prepared due to our “Lords and Masters” avarice and shortsightedness. Thing of it is the ‘how’ and ‘when’ of it.
My own theory is that there is a plan.
Lots of folks have been plainly wondering just why the other Arab nations haven’t joined in the ‘fun and games’ in defending the Palestinians. The ¡Genociding Games! have been rolling full speed for a while now, and yet even Hezbollah, the Lunatic Lebanese Based Fringe of the Fuzzy-Wuzzy Cult of Kaboom hasn’t really started any shit yet. My thought are that there is one, and we’re actively seeing it unfold now.
The trick is the same play that Putin has been doing in the Krain. He set his guys up via tactical retreats to Hard Points and Defensive Belts that had the Krainians literally smashing themselves up on for the past 8-10 months, without any sort of real gains. The Krainaians despite ALL the Ministry of Propaganda and Lies best attempts to tell the Opposite a’la BizzarroWorld, have been smashing themselves retarded in minefields, firebags and generally losing a lot more than they’re taking. Even the Washington Post has been questioning the intelligence of them beating their metaphoric heads against the wall bloody without any meaningful gains.
In the case here? OK… lets say the plan is to have the Houthis, as disorganized and well, pathetically small ‘Militia’ as they are, they’ve been supplied very well by the Iranians for their ongoing fight with the Saudis. The very fact that the Saudis, even with alllll the whizz-bang neet-o US supplied Tanks, Gadgets and Wunderwaffen haven’t been able to crush them (the Houthi) in a conflict that dates back to 2015.
So these jokers start by launching allll sorts of shit towards Israel. This in turn has /ourguys, specifically the Navy, start shooting down all that gear. They keep doing it until
Oops. No more ‘bullets’
Now, taken to an extreme, can you imagine what happens when the Navy is now incapable of stopping any cruise missiles or drones no matter who fires them or where they’re fired from?
Lets say for fantasy league here that Iran, now knowing that the Navy ain’t got shit to use, decides that it can start by lighting up one of the Carriers that’s floating around in the Gulf… say the Eisenhower… while at the same time, Hezbollah goes ‘heavy’ in from the North, and the Egyptians say “Fuck It!” and roll in from the South…
It’ll go from “Dumb” to “Stupid” in a few seconds.
Considering how feckless and dumb our current group running the show with the Puppet known as The Pretender to the Glorious and Harmonious P&PBUH (Plus 10%) Orifice of The (p)Resident, The Dementor-in-Chief, Emperor Poopypants the First, Chief Executive of the Kidsmeller Pursuivant, Good Ole Slo Xi-Den, I’d say the odds would be 50-50 that we’d cut and run, rather than get fully engaged, as we don’t have anything to engage them with at this point.
Hell, the icing on the cake and the reason I think there might be a slim possibility that this’ll happen is that the ‘signaling’ coming from ole Poopypants has been less-than-supportive of the current ¡Genocidal Jews! killing anything and anyone that moves in Gaza. Them brazenly shooting the Catholic mother and daughter seeking shelter at that Monastery was a corpse too far for a lot of people…
We’ll have to see. Thoughts in the comments? More Later Big Country
Greetings Me Droogs N Droogettes! Tired man… didn’t sleep last night for some reason or another. Just sort of -laid there-. Not a lot of fun, and then went straight into working at The People’s Glorious Tractor Factory #206, which in itself this week is a complete shitshow in that the rest of the proletariat in our department took a bourgeoise vay-kay, leaving me and the Commissar of the Department to carry the load until Thursday.
So, not much more but Doc sent me an interesting article written by Andrew Anglin, the guy who did the “Daily Stormer”:
I find it utterly hilarious personally… Anglin went from being the “Ultimate Boogeyman” representing “Sooooper-Anti-Semitism” to being a “Meh” sort of guy. The ADL itself (another group of fucking nutjobs) supposedly labeled him as “the most prominent American anti-Semite.” (according to him of course). He’s crazier than a shithouse rat IMO… extremists of all types generally are.
The problem is when the nutbars start sounding rational? That’s when you start to see that “We got real problems!”
The TL;DR of the article above is essentially:
The official definition of “antisemitism” before October 7, 2023 was “hating Jews for no reason.”
The post-7/10 definition of “antisemitism” is “saying Jews should stop killing babies.”
Dunno about you, but that does sort of sound insane-ish doesn’t it? Just like the Star Wars meme of Alderaan being blown the fuck away for a rumor that there was a Hamas Operative on the planet, so Ergo, they were within their rights to exterminate billions of people, and to say otherwise makes you an eeeeevil Anti-Semite:
Crazy AF right?
Personally I’m in the camp of “Stop Killing Children You Godless Fucks!” I’ve seen some footage that’s being hidden by the Ministries of Lies and Propaganda that’s made me physically ill… one stands out, a wounded lil Girl, in terror, crying, with shrapnel wounds, who is or maybe even -was- at this point… who the fuck knows, the same age as Adriana. When I see a lil Girl, same age as my Gran, hurt, terrified, confused, and alone?
“Killing Frenzy” comes leaping to mind…
I do NOT care whatever reason you use to excuse it…
KILLING -INNOCENT-CHILDREN IS INHERENTLY EVIL AND -ANYONE- WHO CONDONS SUCH AN ACT IS EVIL AS WELL PERIOD. FUCKING. DOT.
They want to kill Hamas? Have the fuck at it. Let ’em slaughter each other. They and theirs deserve every. single. thing. they got coming.
Killing Kids?
Zero Fucking Excuses EVER. Both Fucking Sides.
The fucking IDF is as bad, if not worse than ALL of the SS/SD who performed the same. exact. type. of exterminations in World War Two. In fact, At least the Krauts had the balls to do it face-to-face, unlike the fucking cowards in the IDF who’re content to just blast them with bombs from afar.
What Inverse Fucking Insane Asylum are We living in when We have Ukrainian NAZIs fighting Russians, while being led by a Jew, and Israeli Forces ACTING like actual fucking NAZIs and performing genocide on the Palestinians!?!
Stop the motherfucking World. I want off man… SO, in light of THAT particular shit, lets have some bunnies Gretchen sent me to cheer me up:
As I said, she sent this to me to cheer me up, but also to ask:
“Can we get one???”
Oh Hells No! Between the two cats, and the dog, lil itty-bitty Bunny would be Hassenpfeffer inside of an hour, tops. Go figure amiright? So, More Later Big Country
And of course in the words of The Critical Drinker:
OK… Who had Gay Anal Sex in the Senate Chambers for December?
Annnnnnnnd a quick minute after the usual (((suspects))) came jumping to the defense of this fucking twink:
That would be from the LGTBQRSTUVWXY and Z online mag the “Washington Blade” as in The Gay Blade… seems the culprit is (currently is that is, as I expect this guy to be a ‘was’ shortly and self-delete) a now-former Senate Staffer and/or AID(s) Aidan Maese-Czeropski.
OF COURSE his immediate action was to post on Every. Single. Social Media site he’s part of (to include LinkedIn) a denial, with counter accusations, and a threat of ‘legal action’:
Which was, quite surprisingly, NOT taken very well by the Gay Community. On LinkedIn, the comments are fucking brutal and utterly dripping with contempt and scorn, (hence my belief he’ll self-delete). The two I’m throwing up here are just two quick examples:
There are a LOT more, but the general consensus is that this Twink is now a marked man by the Gay Community. The Fag Mafia ain’t no joke either… this clown really fucked up by A) doing it, and then B) doubling down on ‘teh stoopid’ thinking he’s Bill (or maybe even Hilliroid) in the standard DemoncRat move of “Deny Everything, Make Counter Accusations”, and adding the latest move “Threaten Legal Action”.
Plus… Putting this all up on fucking LinkedIn????
Yeah This fucker is toast Good Luck there getting a job like anywhere ever again…
And the follow up on it is apparently the guy “dooking him in the glutes” is a German National named Georg Gauger. He’s the guy who poasted this up on whatever fag-porn site it was discovered on, said-Kraut poasted the vidya (disgusting AF BTW, do not look for it if you want to keep dinner down) But as I was saying, his comment on the fagsite was bragging FFS:
“In this very room: Sonia Sotomayor had her confirmation hearing. James Comey testified on Russian interference in the 2016 elections. Aiden got some thick German sausage and a jager sauce finish.”
EUUUWWWW!!!EUUUWWWW!!!EUUUWWWW!!!
Gross me the fuck out… as Moon Unit Zappa said in the 1982 classic movie “Valley Girl”: “Gag me with a spoon fer sure!” <BLAAARRRG!!!>
Now, couple of oddities: Seems the ‘bottom’ here, ole Aidan, was working for DemoncRatic Maryland Senator Ben Cardin. Cardin is known for having spoken at length regarding the sanctity and violation of said-sanctity by the J6 Political Prisoners. Wonder if he’ll call for the same level of punishment for the two faggots?
Of course not silly They’re faggots AND one at least is a DemoncRat, which means they’ll get a bye on this one. Now mind you, he may get away with it, if only so that the Deep State Leviathan can again rub our faces in the two-teir Just-Us System, however
Methinks that this kid is done as the gay community are really pissed off and as I said, the Gay Mafia doesn’t play by the normal rules that us straights play with. THAT is why I think this kid is on the self-delete track… may not be now, may not even be soon, but I’d say he’s a dead man walking. There’s also another reason I think this’s the case, and I’ll hit that as we go along….
The other oddity of which I spoke is that Aidan is registered as a foreign agent under the FARA act. According to Laura Loomer, he was registered as
“The purpose of his registration pertains to the US-Dominican Republic Bilateral Relationship.”
Now, lots of folks have to register as part and parcel of the job. HOWEVER what –I– find interesting is that Twinkie-the-Kid worked on Immigration Issues for Senator Dianne Feinstein as an Intern before going to work for Cardin.
You do know that the next-door-neighbor to the D.R. is Haiti right? Raise your hand if you remember the tie-in to Haiti, hell the whole area in general regarding child trafficking back in 2010? That was when Laura Silsby, whith very strong ties to the Clinton Foundation was ARRESTED by Haitian Authorities for kidnapping children after that massive earthquake back then, and moving them into the child trafficking networkvia THE DOMINICAN REPUBLIC
DAMN!
To be honest, I think I’m the first to make the connection. Back then, fucking NPR (National Pubic Radio” did an article and in it, stated
“Silsby has said publicly that she had permission and paperwork from the Dominican Republic to bring the Haitian children into that country from Haiti.”
Which the Dominican Republic’s Consul General in Port Au Prince said “Bullshit!” and things sort of kind of faded as most things involving the Clinton Criminal Cabal are wont to do…
Jes’ Sayin’
Personally, one thing I’m pretty sure of is that this particular ‘ratline’ feeding young innocents into the Maw of Ba’al is still ongoing. Child Rapists gonna Rape, until the MorBark gets involved, so I’m pretty sure that Twinkie-the-Kid’s role as a Immigration assistant or whatever… any bets that if you did a FOIA request as to what paperwork this kid pushed might have something to do with moving young ‘orphans’ to the states?
I don’t take sucker bets… I will say however, the standard MorBark, well, as much as I love it, (and the name) the reality is as it’s been exposed… well….
Which brings me to introduce to y’all The Magnum Force CBI 8400 Industrial Chipper:
Now that is a thing of beauty. 700 cubic meters per hour of Pedos? Dayum Son! Now that’s a chipper baby.
I mean realistically, I know my tie-in points are thin… like really thin… but then again, Riggs and Murtaugh’s links with Dixie were pretty fucking thin too.
And these days, one’s tinfoil can never be too tight, nor enough in the depravity department we have out there now.
Who knows? Now IF he turns up with a bad case of the “deads” vis “suicide by being shot in the back, 14 times while self-decapitating with a chainsaw” well then, guess you can make of it what you will. I -do know- however, as I stated, or rather the tweet that Mike Collins said at the top… well this kid done really fucked up… I mean
Yeeeeeeah About that…
So, that’s all I got on this particular shytteshow. Spent the majority of the day doing the kitchen floor… like serious in depth cleaning. Like a 15% or 20% Acid Based Grout cleaner, and then scrubbing the fuck out of it with a brush… the floor hasn’t been this clean in like forever… didn’t get done until like 8pm… whew…
And last night I didn’t get a chance to do Ye Olde Blegg as I got a $50 gift card from my Direct Commissar as a Christmas gift, so Gretchen and I did the Carrabbas thing. Had me the Shrimp and Scallops in a Vodka sauce… OMFG good A -mite- light on the scallops (4 of them in the whole plate) but understandable as currently fresh?
Like $38 a pound, which is a bloody shame as I love me some of those buggers. I could eat two pounds on my own… have in fact back in the day when I used to go a harvest my own up in New England during summers on the Cape… my Favorite is to do the Baked/Stuffed mode… a dollop of dressing on top, butter, lemon juice and braise them in the oven at high heat…
God, I’m drooling as I type this…
Anyways… what do you think of my theory on this? Plausible or not? Let me know in the comments
