Trump-Derangement-Syndrome Alert: NATO member Luxembourg secretly asking Russia for a bilateral nonaggression treaty (a la Ribbentrop-Molotov), acc. to (apocryphal) report. LUXEMBOURGERS fear becoming NOTHINGBURGERS, when Russia attacks. Theater of absurd.

Putin doubts Biden is in charge; dismisses that with a smile (or was it a grimace?). An inherently unstable situation. But Putin projects image of readiness for anything – incl talks on Ukraine where Zelensky carries out Nulandsky’s order to fire Zaluzhny.
Tucker Carlson showed courageous journalism in interviewing President Putin. Those interested in Putin’s views now can know them and decide for themselves (Psst! Hopefully the media will not put Putin in “McGovern’s pocket”). No wonder the crazies don’t want to let Tucker back.
GIVE BIDEN A BREAK FOR GOD’S SAKE! He has “diminished faculties in advancing age”, says US Justice Department. That & “his sympathetic demeanor” explain/excuse him for revealing to ghostwriter classified information, including “human Intelligence sources”.

Relentless Bob Parry, my journalism-mentor, is proven right again. SecState Kerry’s dog ate his homework on “imagery … trajectory info” re shoot-down of MH17. Vassal Dutch did not insist on autopsy of dog. Details here:

TODAY IN HISTORY: Feb 7, 1965 Viet Cong kill 7 GIs; LBJ bombs N Vietnam; at end 58,000 GIs dead. Feb 7, 1984, Reagan pulls GIs out of Middle East before more get killed (421 were killed in Beirut a few months before). Feb 7, 2024: Biden picks LBJ example.
With the Russians having the upper hand in Ukraine, why don’t they launch a major offense to end the war? was Nima’s first question. Also discussed: starvation as part of genocide & an illustrative real-life example of rank anti-semitism in USG 80 yrs ago.
President winces at 3 “transfer cases” containing “fallen” soldiers at Dover AFB; peans for the peons during football games; targets chosen “with an idea there would likely be casualties associated with people inside those facilities” hypocrisy on steroids.
Attack on Tower 22 killing 3 GIs was “Iran-backed” but DoD has “no evidence” Iran directly involved. A drone got through because US anti-aircraft defense confused. So Tower 22 attack not the “False Flag” attack I have been predicting, but remain alert for one.

Intel. Roundtable mentioned Moscow TV panelist remark: “Russia & Iran are allies.” New treaty widens defense ties. https://timesofisrael.com/liveblog_entry/russia-and-iran-to-sign-new-strategic-treaty/ Let’s hope that sane US officials, if any, take this into account in striking “Iran-backed” forces in Iraq and Syria.
