6. Orban, part of his statement
(0900)(0900)
Best not to skip over this (h/t Steve):
How I see this panning out:
While the psychopaths Biden, Blinken, Nuland, Starmer etc. are perfectly happy to send nukes into Russia, Putin sends non-nukes in return, e.g. to Kiev … the issue is when it ramps up. To my mind, Putin wants to take out nuclear threats in the various countries, not just in the Ukraine and to do that, no-warhead missiles do not suffice.
That’s when the end begins. I’d expect Biden to be taken out, plus the others, by then … Starmer is the issue here. Labour must go … the question is … which mechanism can be used? A Cromwellian repeat?

4. Orban statement
“The Western world has not only failed in its idea and strategy of reorganizing the world, but is also suffocating in its own environment within the Western world. The issues that liberal, progressive, dominant thinking could not answer have been put on the agenda. This is migration, this is gender ideology, ethical contradictions regarding traditional values, or even the ongoing war. Thus, the West is becoming increasingly incapable of governing itself.”
“At this point, it’s entirely obvious that the Enlightenment was a satanic turn that led Christendom upon a false path that has not only destroyed Western civilization, but the organizations and nations who created it in the first place.”
Kassandra, the Dutch blogger/tweeter in Greece, said long ago that the Enlightenment was warped at the start, hijacked, one manifestation of that being the Royal Society … examine the ideology of the main players … not only antithetical to the Christian underpinning but dedicated to undermining, any good it was doing to “the West”. Once the “falling away”gathered pace, post WW2, that was the end of the West … we just didn’t know it yet.
