A little observation...

For a last few days, there has been a change of narrative when it comes to Ukraine-Russia peace talks.

In the beginning, Ukrainians were not giving into "unrealistic" Russian demands and Russians were accusing Ukrainians for delay "expecting Western military intervention."

Then, Ukrainians were offering to be "neutral" - which is exactly what John Mearsheimer called for almost 7 years ago while Ukrainians failed to implement Minsk agreements.

This morning, and I'm quoting Dailymail here "Zelensky said peace talks is 'realistic' and his team believe a deal will be struck with V. Putin within a week or two because of Russian forces will run out of troops and supplies as he concedes that Ukraine will never join NATO."

So re-cap, Ukrainians are conceding to Russian original demands because Russians are losing?

For some reason, this reminds me of Joe Biden standing in front of camera and explaining to all of us how withdraw from Afghanistan was enormous logistical success.

Personally, I believe this is attempt to sooth the painful reality in which Ukraine's efforts do not stand chance against Russia and the country will accept everything Putin really cares about (not what media claims he cares about). In other words, they are conceding while claiming "enormous logistical success".

This is my analysis of situation. Let us see whether the reality supports it.

Climate change 101

I know I haven't been around lately...work...life...However, the 12-years-old clip popped into my feed and I wanted to share it. The reason? This clip provides the great basic understanding into what are the issues with so-called "evidence" related to anthropogenic (human-induced) climate change and the lack of logic when it comes to the interpretation of such evidence. The sad reality is that even after 12 years from this clip, we are still forced to endure nonsensical conclusions that hurricanes hitting Florida are caused by big bad climate change.

A Non-existent Crisis

The mainstream media is doubling down on the alarmism, and it is not hard to guess why. However, to be fair, consider my little observation an educated guess, an opinion, rather than the fact. Time will show whether I am right.

(1) 'Climate change affects everyone': Europe battles wildfires in intense heat by Reuters (https://www.reuters.com/business/environment/spain-portugal-battle-wildfires-heatwaves-scorch-southern-europe-2022-07-17/)

If you spent time in Southern Europe, Mediterranean, during summer season - July and August in particular - you probably know that heat-induced wildfires are nothing new. In fact, they are quite common and remarkably devastating for the affected communities, and I have witnessed several in person. Most of the time, the wildfires occur due to heat igniting grasses, especially in the areas where there are broken glass or broken bottles. The glass serves as an amplifier for the sun rays, especially, in the vicinity of dry grasses, or even dry pine needles, and as ...

Great interview. Highly recommended.
