    for a while I was getting that, like a bunch of days last week or so, but now, no problem. I have no idea why it changed--I didn't do anything to get it back.

    I guess others have had the same problem, so TheSaker posted this:

    Is everyone ready for food shortages? This is something we've never seen before. If, or when it happens, (more likely when) and the people panic and begin to hoard, it won't take long to wipe out our food supply. 1st things to go, flour, sugar and all baking goods. I hope many here keep a little on supply. I'm starting to think my mountain house freeze dried food might come in handy. It's been safely stored for approx. 12 years.
    Good luck to all in the coming months. The Shit Has Hit The Fan!

    multipolarista.com: Ukrainian leftist criticizes Western war drive with Russia: US is using Ukraine as ‘cannon fodder’
    ByYuliy Dubovyk 2022-03-14
    The overwhelming support that Western governments and media outlets have poured out for Ukraine since Russia invaded on February 24 is not actually motivated by concern for the Ukrainian people. They are using us to advance their political and economic interests.

    We know this because Washington overthrew our government twice in a decade, imposed neoliberal economic policies that made our country the poorest in Europe, and has fueled a devastating civil war that in the past eight years took the lives of 14,000 Ukrainians and wounded and displaced many more.

    The following facts don’t get mentioned by the media, as they contradict the foreign-policy goals of the US government. So unless you are actively engaged in the anti-war movement, the info below is probably new to you. That is why I wanted to write this article.

    US government backed two coups in Ukraine in one decade, and fueled a civil war that killed 14,000 Ukrainians...

    Zelensky ran on a platform of peace. He even addressed the Russian-speaking eastern parts of the country in Russian.

    Very quickly after entering office, however, Zelensky changed his tone. Much like the supposedly “moderate” Poroshenko, Zelensky was told that he was risking losing Western backing, and the loyalty of the far-right, which could threaten to kill him.

    So Zelensky did a 180 on his peaceful rhetoric, and he continued to support the civil war.

    Neo-Nazis have a significant influence in Ukraine’s state security services...

    Western sanctions will only hurt working-class Russians (and average people in the US too)...

    Russiagate and anti-Russian xenophobia has made the crisis even worse

    A fantastic piece by Peter Beinart on substack {SEE HERE} puts excellent clarity on the people around Joe Biden baiting Russian President Vladimir Putin to enter Ukraine.Current CIA Director William “Bill” Burns was the former ambassador to Russia and Jordan. Bill Burns had a 33-year career at the State Department under both Republican and Democratic presidents and speaks fluent Russian. If the people in the background of Joe Biden wanted an intelligence operative to trigger a specific result from Russia, there’s no one more strategically perfect for the job than CIA Director Bill Burns.

    The article by Beinart is mainly focused on pointing out the irreconcilable nature of Joe Biden implying Ukraine could join NATO, while his own CIA Director has a history of giving serious warnings emphasizing the “brightest of all red lines” about that specific point.
    theconservativetreehouse.com: Admission From Zelenskyy Highlights How Biden Administration Wanted To Provoke Russia To Invade Ukraine
    March 21, 2022
    Hopefully by now everyone is well aware how the U.S. State Department has been manipulating the internal politics of Ukraine for well over a decade.

    A recent statement, by current Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy, puts the weeks leading up to the Russian invasion into greater clarity.

    In an interview with CNN, Zelenskyy spoke about his prior communication with Joe Biden and NATO leadership. Within the interview Zelenskyy said (emphasis mine):

    “I requested them personally to say directly that we are going to accept you into NATO in a year or two or five, just say it directly and clearly, or just say no,” Zelensky said. “And the response was very clear, you’re not going to be a NATO member, but publicly, the doors will remain open,” he said. {CITATION)

    So, privately NATO and the Biden administration were telling Zelenskyy Ukraine was never going to be in NATO, yet they told him they were going to publicly act like the possibility existed. There was no way for Ukraine to enter NATO, but they were going to pretend he could. Why would they do this?...

    Reuters, December 9, 2021 – “U.S. President Joe Biden assured Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy that Kyiv’s bid to join the NATO military alliance was in its own hands, Zelenskiy’s chief of staff said after the two leaders spoke on Thursday...

    What Zelenskyy said yesterday makes sense, when you look at it from the position that the United States wanted to provoke Russian to enter Ukraine and they used public statements along with carefully crafted intelligence information to China, in order to achieve that objective.
    “I requested them personally to say directly that we are going to accept you into NATO in a year or two or five, just say it directly and clearly, or just say no,” Zelensky said. “And the response was very clear, you’re not going to be a NATO member, but publicly, the doors will remain open,”

    Above is the quote at the CNN article on their interviewing Zelensky on March 20, however this is the actual English closed caption translation from the 'watch' Zelensky video clip CNN has for the quote:

    "So my rhetoric is absolutely true, and I'm not mentioning explicitly what countries said that Ukraine is not going to be a NATO member, I think that this is a very -- position, it has to remain behind the scenes but that is true"

    Re: WW4 kicked off in Ukraine...?

    So is the somewhat less degenerate 'conservative' corporate mainstream news successfully selling this war?

    While the left's herd signaling "I support the current thing" level of 'politics' immediately bought into the media's war effort when told to, recent reports and polls say that the Rino NeoCon machine has been making progress in the pro-war and end the US reserve currency sanctions efforts after a month or so of pro-war propaganda.

    cbsnews.com: Republicans are backing an aggressive policy toward Ukraine, breaking with Trump
    MARCH 21, 2022
    CBS News polling finds 76% of Republicans approve of sanctioning Russia's oil and gas (and 62% say so even if it means higher gas prices), 75% say the U.S. should send weapons and supplies to Ukraine, and 61% say the U.S. should send troops to protect NATO allies near Ukraine.
    Other results from the CBS March 8-11 poll
    All Americans: 59% favor no fly zone, 38% favor a no fly zone even if it's viewed as an act of war

    revolver.news: The America First Movement has a Sean Hannity Problem
    March 20, 2022
    In 2016, Donald Trump showed that a Republican candidate can run, and win, without swearing fealty to the permanent war party. He ran on a platform of “America First,” and since that moment almost all Republican politicians and commentators have at least paid lip service to the idea.

    Yet now, all of that is being thrown aside for the sake of Ukraine...

    It is one thing to see the Democrats eagerly join the CIA, State Department, and Pentagon in demanding the escalation of U.S. involvement in the Ukraine-Russia conflict. That alignment makes perfect sense politically—why wouldn’t the left align with the same national security state that embraces all of its values, and which has repurposed itself to target the left’s domestic political enemies on the right?

    Seeing lawmakers on the right take the same stance, though, is both puzzling and pathetic. The relationship between the national security state and most GOP lawmakers and pundits increasingly resembles the relationship between an abusive husband and his battered spouse. Like a wife who believes her husband still loves her even as he sends her to the hospital, the same lawmakers and Fox News figures who claim to have embraced the Trump realignment are yet again letting themselves get played by a Regime that hates them.

    Sure, it’s not nice when the Regime drinks too much and suddenly labels us all domestic terrorists, but patriotism requires that we unthinkingly serve this same regime when it wants to endanger American lives for another misadventure thousands of miles from our shores...

    For those confused by what they are witnessing, here is a simple explanation: Fox News, Sean Hannity, and the GOP are reverting back to the leading roles they played in the run-up to the Iraq War...

    Other than a handful of holdouts, Fox News’ message has become relentless: Escalate, escalate, escalate!

    Sadly, the message seems to be getting through. A recent Pew poll found that Republicans are even more eager to support Ukraine than Democrats.
    pewresearch.org March 7-13 views on U.S. support to Ukraine:
    Not enough: Rep 49%, Dem 38%
    About right: Rep 23% Dem 39%
    When the stakes are Ukrainian sovereignty, Republicans are firm, united, and even fanatical. When the stakes are the gradual, explicit transformation of their own voters into fifth-class citizens, unity and enthusiasm evaporate.

    In 2022 America, it is far easier for Republicans to demand World War 3 than it is for them to demand that their voters not be replaced from abroad, targeted with race hate propaganda in schools, or be herded off to prison for attending the wrong protest.

    For the right, war is a permanent crutch, a way to ignore real issues (the issues where they are losing) and live in a comforting fantasy world of easy moral clarity and absolute American dominance. Demanding escalation in Eastern Europe is a way for Republicans to feel tough when they have totally lost control of their own country. In this darkly ironic fashion, Republicans actually do have something in common with the Ukrainians they wish to save: they are both patriotic to a country that they have no control over in the first place.
