The language is terrifying. Not a weasel word in there, though I understand little of the analysis.

But there’s a lot of geopolitical risk with accompanying economic consequences frosted with fallout from years, decades of easy money.

A modicum of digging has shown me that there is still a neocon presence in US a government at high places, primarily through Victoria Nuland. She’s married to a prominent neocon, who is the son of the grandfather of this crazy, dangerous doctrine that gave us Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, and now is baring its teeth in Ukraine. Failures, one and all. Blood and treasure down the drain, lives ruined.

Ironically, the only sane ones might reside in the Pentagon, where the limits of our power are everyday fare.

I can imagine a very intense debate taking place within our Government concerning the next steps to take as it appears that Russia has won its campaign for Donetsk and Lubansk, though Kaliningrad, which has all the earmarks of a Nuland-style fiasco-in-the-making, beckons.

Putting tight stops on everything except paper gold.

The Force is rattling, quaking. A disturbance is an insignificant description.
