Leave it to Joe Buydone for a final heating solution for our “European-Friends” this winter.
Jill only left him home alone just for an hour.
“Now just how could he get in trouble so quickly” it was reported she said. “Well send him to his room with that DUNCE CAP again!”
Tubularsock went straight to his crystal-ball and called for the GAS SPIRIT to come-forth and POOOOFF! there she was dripping in salt water.
Impressive, Tubularsock stated.
“GAS SPIRIT tell Tubularsock who blew up the Nord Stream Pipeline?”
“IT WAS POSITIVELY NOT RUSSIA!” the GAS SPIRIT said quite quickly.
“Well, just how can you be so sure, oh wise SPIRIT?” was Tubularsock’s retort.
The Gas SPIRIT took three fast steps to the East, turned and stated, “It is as plain as U.S. Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken having his head up his ass!”
“This may be true, GAS SPIRIT but Tubularsock needs more PROOF than that”.
“Well here you go then”, the GAS SPIRIT stated as she spread her arms in a revelation gesture.
“Sweden and Denmark are investigating the sabotage which all parties have agreed was perpetrated on the underwater pipeline.
Russia has not been allowed to investigate their own pipeline and yet to date Sweden and Denmark has discovered that there are explosion craters at the destroyed pipe locations.”
“But still who did it is unknown” Tubularsock added.
“So if Russia had done this Sweden and Denmark would have been yelling that information from the top of Mount Olympus at the top of their voices”, the GAS SPIRIT continued.
“But what they have found shows someone else did it, Soooooooo. It is now classified and top secret and in that gesture alone shows that Russia is in the clear”, and at that she sat down very pleased with herself.
That has been the last Tubularsock has seen the GAS SPIRIT but as Tubularsock pursues the elusive gas fumes the fact that the USS Paul Ignatius, a U.S. destroyer, was spotted hovering over the areas where the explosions happened and left the area a short time before they happened make for interesting conjecturing.
And if you take into account that on May 20th “. . . Defense Secretary Lloyd J. Austin III announced that Navy Rear Adm. Thomas E. Ishee for appointment to the grade of vice admiral, and assignment as commander, 6th Fleet.
Thomas Ishee is well versed in underwater fast attack, and he commanded fast attack submarines and oversaw the operations of torpedo retrievers, floating dry dock and the Navy’s submarine rescue systems.(https://www.globalresearch.ca/exclusive-us-torpedo-appeared-explosion-site-nord-stream/5797989)
And you wrap all this up with the fact that the U.S. 6th Fleet were conducting “military exercises” in the Baltic dealing with among other things training an Explosive Ordnance Disposal Mobile Unit and unmanned underwater vehicles.
Move along, nothing to see here.
But for Tubularsock it is clear that once the discovered information was made classified tells it all and to date Tubularsock has heard zilch from Mount Olympus!
The thing that bothers Tubularsock about WAR is having so many. In our 246 years of being a nation we have been in 225 wars! And that’s not counting the long history of rigging polls, supporting military coups, channeling funds and spreading political propaganda in other countries.
The United States has been involved in a number of foreign interventions throughout its history that are not called wars yet many people get killed.
And what is way worse in Tubularsock’s opinion is the political leaders in the United States of America lecturing the World about how WRONG other nations are for having wars and then Moralizing about the subject. The old “pot calling the kettle black” syndrome.
And now here we are once again. If you haven’t looked into this current conflict you would not be aware that the U.S. has been up to it’s “chinny-chin-chin” in setting up this current conflict between Russia and Ukraine. WE HELPED CAUSE IT!
Yet to listen to our propaganda news outlets WE ARE ALL SHOCKED WITH DESPAIR that RUSSIA AND ABOVE ALL PUTIN are so evil.
For Tubularsock it is rather funny to listen to the shit coming out of their mouths except Tubularsock had to get out Tubularsock’s hip-boots to protect Tubularsock’s shoes.
But then this headline hit the news and enough is enough ……
And just like shit hitting the fan …….. Tubularsock just had to directly respond:
And the beat goes on ………………
Oh well, Tubularsock’s Go-Fund-Me account for helping the Russians in getting a new tank was rejected again. You know one just can’t get past the censors in a democracy anymore. As you may have heard, Russia has moved into the breakaway areas of Ukraine, Donetsk and Luhansk and have spilled over a bit to hit the Ukraine’s capitol city Kyiv as well. Well ok, “spilled” may be better explained as “multiple fronts”. And why not, they have their troops on the boarder standing around so why not put them to use? This could have been all avoided but the U.S. is losing the Covid- Authoritarian-War so maybe we could jack up Putin. But as Tubularsock said, this could have all been avoided but hell Americans aren’t going over there to die ……… yet. And if they do, no loss. It will clean up the gene pool of the stupid! JD Bindenagel, a former deputy US ambassador to Germany, stated that he believes “. . . NATO's mistake was not so much the actual enlargement direction, but with not taking seriously the Russian view that it had been betrayed”. You see, Russia was assured by NATO and the U.S. that NATO would not advance toward Russian boarders. BUT OVER THE YEARS THEY HAVE! Ahhh, silly Russians taking the U.S. and NATO’s word for it. And by golly ………. Russia was deceived! So having the Ukraine join NATO would put the NATO and U.S. military right on the Russian boarder. ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING! NOT GOING TO HAPPEN! Remember the Cuban Missile Crisis? Russia wanted to put missiles right on the U.S. boarder and look how that played out. So why would anyone ever even think that NATO on the boarder would go? But it could’ve been solved without firing a shot. HOW? Well Russia had proposed: – NATO guarantees that it will not deploy missiles in nations bordering Russia. (They are already in place from Slovenia to Romania, with Poland to follow)– NATO to stop military and naval exercises in nations and seas bordering Russia.– Ukraine will not become a member of NATO. – the West and Russia to sign a binding East-West security pact.– the landmark treaty between the US and Russia covering intermediate-range nuclear weapons to be restored. (The US abandoned it in 2019) Wow! Those Russians drive a hard bargain! The U.S. and NATO just can’t accept these outrageous demands …………. Now you explain to Tubularsock why these are not acceptable solutions. The U.S. and NATO keep saying they are open to negotiations but won’t accept solutions! SO ………… Russia took the option that the U.S. and NATO gave them. AND SO …….. send your money to Tubularsock’s Go-Fund-Me Russian Tank Fund!
Now don’t get Tubularsock wrong here. Tubularsock doesn’t trust Russia but only that Tubularsock trust the U.S. less.
If you haven’t noticed, the U.S. is the largest terrorist state in the world and regularly kills men, women and children throughout the world.
The Russians sure know that and so does the rest of the world. We are the ones who actually created ISIS and al Qaida and we have more military bases throughout the world than anyone else.
And a military budget far larger than China and Russia combined!
BUT WE KILL FOR DEMOCRACY. Just ask the Vietnamese! Oh, and Syrians, Libyans, Yemenis, Iraqis, Ugandans, Kenya’s, Somalians, Afghans, ad nauseam!
THAT IS WHY TUBULARSOCK SUPPORTS RUSSIA IN THIS WAR!
Not because Russia is at war but because it is the only way Russia can catch up with the number of American’s wars. It’s only fair.
So you see, it is for a good cause ……. Go-Fund-Me!
EVERYONE IS RUSSIAING TO DO IT!
Ok, Tubularsock is not known for humbleness. And there is no time for Tubularsock to sit around and not CLEAR THE DECKS when it come to Canada and Russia.
Tubularsock, with his astute ability at spotting the problem and solving it at the same time has always been apparent.
Seriously, it just saves time ………….
Lets take Canada. Justin Trudeau has called out for emergency powers to squelch the blockade protest against COVID-19 mandates. One aspect of this move gives the Government the power to have the banks close accounts and block people who wish to support the Truckers based on said people’s Facebook and Twitter accounts.
And if a bank closes an account based on this basis the bank can not be held accountable for their actions. IT’S THE LAW! (Bitcoin anyone?)
SO BE IT!
Solution?
A banker who may be ready to retire or a lesser bank employee with a since of humor could close down Justin Trudeau’s personal checking and savings account in the name of a national emergency.
Just to make THE POINT. And you can not be held accountable!
NOTE TO ANY CANADIAN BANKER: Tubularsock gives you this idea free and clear with no interest charges or added fees. Just Do It for the fun of it!
OK. THAT’S SETTLED!
We move on to the Russians and Ukraine. OH MY WHAT TO DO.
Simple ……… a Tubularsock specialty.
Now what is the issue? Well Russia doesn’t want NATO to move into Ukraine and create a military presence on their boarder.
Seems reasonable. Doesn’t it?
Solution?
Russia arranges with Cuba to have the Russians create a military base in Cuba.
The Russians send four of their highly advanced Navy ships to Cuba as a show of force. Remember the Cuban missile crises? Da ja vou.
And then the Russian negotiate with the U.S. that they will remove that presence near the U.S. boarder IF THE U.S. reciprocates and not allows Ukraine to become a member of NATO but rather becomes a “buffer-state” between the Russian border and the NATO border.
NOTE TO VLAD: Tubularsock gives you this idea free and clear with no interest charges or added fees. Just Do It for the fun of it!
OK. THAT’S SETTLED!
Tubularsock thinks that it is obvious that Tubularsock is like pretty close to a genius when it comes to foreign policy. Just ask Tubularsock!
MATING RITUALS & NORTH KOREA
Tubularsock has been studying mating dance rituals to develop Tubularsock’s NEW THEORY ON AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY.
For one reason it is just a “click-bate” technique to trick people into reading about American “relations” with North Korea. Yes, there is a lot of fucking around!
Have you ever wonder why North Korea ALWAYS seems to want to provoke it’s neighbors by sending off missiles into the, ahhh ocean?
Now at first it may seem odd Tubularsock admits. But it really isn’t when you look at the REGULAR SCHEDULED EVENT. It’s springtime again.
Every spring North Korea’s neighbors (South Korea and Japan) along with our very own antagonist, the United States join together to play WAR GAMES off the coast of North Korea ……… Every fucking spring!
And when your neighbors tend to run their bombers and their battleships and their missile launchers up and down your coast with a “play-like” attack scenario, well it just may APPEAR aggressive. Don’t you think?
But somehow ALL the news outlets lead with stories like NORTH KOREA THREATEN NEIGHBORS WITH RENEWED MISSILE LAUNCH. Well, no shit Dick Tracy!
Or better yet, NBC banners, “North Korea Threatens U.S. With Nuclear Strike Over War Games!”
And of course Arms Sales To The Region increase and so does the rhetoric of just how “CRAZY” Kim Jong Un happens to be to “threaten” his neighbors. And it is left that HE’S the “crazy-one”!
YAWN ……………..
A different side of the same coin is all that American military buildup along the boarder between Poland and Russia and then promoting the idea that Russia is so aggressive!
SAY WHAT? 
And IRAN
And SYRIA
AND THE BEAT GOES ON.
The United States has 735 (2005) known military bases around the globe but this number fluctuates a great deal. The number changes by the U.S. military changing the definition of what constitutes a “military base”. And the presence of “military personal” has different definitions at different times such as using “Special Operations” and other forces.
Those special categories are almost certainly operating from undisclosed locations which the size is unknown.
And the “drone operations” have a variety of “bases” some unknown.
So it is a numbers game but there is no question that the U.S. has far more military bases outside its boarders than any other country in the world by a factor of 33 and a third!
One just might interpret that as a bit “aggressive” and the end result is a lot of animosity toward the U.S. even from it’s “allies”.
It is an infrastructure for war but our propaganda is such that we are a “peace loving nation” with the caveat that you “believe it or we’ll kill you”!
It really should be obvious by even the brain dead that all this shit is made up! It only exists if the United States goes out and “kicks the dog” so to speak.
And in order to insure Arm Sales we’ll poke anybody!
Oh, and you thought we were doing it to protect ourselves and bring democracy to the peoples of the world.
SURE YOU DID!
SO THAT’S WHAT’S GOIN’ DOWN?
Killing PEOPLE has become redundant. It almost has come down to the fact that if you haven’t been killed you really don’t fit into the society. Somehow you are a misfit because you haven’t been slaughtered by some “loan-wolf-professed-terrorist” that is of a browned skin persuasion. Or even by a broken-home-child with an AK-47 that was treated badly by bullies that is of a white skin persuasion.
Of course not that skin color has anything to do with it but white skin just makes you act like a “non-terrorist”. By current definition.
Well, that is only the appearance that is given by the maimed-streamed-media. It is what sells papers, gains viewers or collect ears for radio talk shows. All in the name of being informed with the regular message that TIDE™ makes your clothes WHITER and so does CLORAX™!
So when the tragedy in Nice, France ended up killing 84 or so men, women and children at the Bastille Day celebration the Western Press went bat-shit over EVERY horrifying detail. Background stories on the victims, interviews with the people at the event and a complete step by step description of the perpetrator.
The New York Times, LATimes, Washington Post and The Wall Street Journal all had major front page detailed coverage of the Nice tragedy. And there is no denying the fact that it was worthy of attention and discussion and an outpouring of grief. After all they were innocents being targeted.
BUT just five days later on July 19th a U.S. coalition airstrike in Syria killed more than 60 civilians according to The Telegraph (7/19/16) and possibility up to 100 according to The Intercept (7/19/16).
But in this case the U.S. coalition airstrike which were reported as “an accident” was denied by the Pentagon saying they were investigating the incident.
“We are aware of reports alleging civilian casualties in the area,” U.S. Marine Maj. Adrian J.T. Rankine-Galloway, a Pentagon spokesperson, said . . . “If the information supporting the allegation is determined to be credible, we will then determine the next appropriate step,” the spokesperson added. “We take all measures during the targeting process to avoid or minimize civilian casualties or collateral damage and to comply with the principles of the Law of Armed Conflict.” The Intercept (7/19/16)
And we can all be assured what “. . . we will then determine the next appropriate step . . .” means. Usually, classify it Top Secret to protect National Security!
The story of these innocent civilians were not headline news in The New York Times or The LA Times and were hardly mentioned. While The Wall Street Journal and Washington Post only gave a short front page intro then moving the story details back to A-16 and A-15 respectively. In truth, just burying the story as best they could. Adam Johnson, The 4th Media (7/22/16)
Now Syria IS a war zone and therefore civilians being killed are just expected so no need to cover “these people”, know what Tubularsock means? And hell, is it even news anyway?
BUT so is Nice! NICE IS A WAR ZONE TOO! If you follow the logic of George War Bush and Obomber. The War on Terror is a World-Wide-War where the United States can bomb, drone, kill, detain, torture, kidnap, perform signature strikes, and assassinate in order to preserve LAW AND ORDER and protect the interests of the United States!
Just how dare some terrorist interloper take the lead from the killing machine that is America! Where in the hell does one of those “tanned-skinned” Tunisian’s get off killing innocent people!
THAT IS THE JOB OF THE UNITED STATES! Fucking uppity Tunisian!
Now, as Tubularsock writes this it is nearing midnight in Moscow. And it’s near noon in Oakland, CA which makes drinking Vodka permissible in both time zones according to Tubularsock’s rules. Of course morning Vodka does have its place too.
Tubularsock has never, to date, disliked a Russian. All the Russians that Tubularsock has met over the years have all been likable. Now, granted Tubularsock is working with a limited sample but it’s the only sample Tubularsock has.
Now Vlad, who Tubularsock has never met, is an oligarch unlike Obummer who is a puppet of oligarchs. Both are working from SELF interest and both have a lot invested in their “trade” of power and money.
But Tubularsock doesn’t really have any experience in being an oligarch nor a puppet of the oligarchs in the direct sense. But Tubularsock does have direct experience with being a person.
So lets look at the Russian/U.S. American dis-harmony which has been propagated Tubularsock’s entire life. It is all BULL SHIT!
Tubularsock bets you 50-bucks-American that Tubularsock could bring one hundred Russians and one hundred U.S. Americans together and work out any differences we all have. Don’t think so? Tubularsock doesn’t see your 50 bucks on the table!
Tubularsock bets you also that Tubularsock could “talk-down” a Black man with a knife without shooting him ……. it’s not an art form, it’s an intention!
Really!
The Washington “bubble” and the Moscow “bubble” work the same way EXCEPT the United States has double-crossed the Russians more than the Russians have double-crossed the United States ………. hands down!
But how could THAT be any surprise?
The United States has double-crossed our African-American Population as well as our Native American Population our entire history …….. so what’s new?
Shameful as it is ……. the truth hurts!
Oh how Tubularsock digresses.
When the Soviet Union collapsed, the United States made a DEAL with the Russian Federation that the United States would NOT SUPPORT NATO in attempting to build military forces in countries that bordered Russia.
Tubularsock has always been amazed that the Russians fell for this. All they had to do is to look at EVERY treaty the United States made with the Native Americans to see the LIE THAT IS THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!
And SLAVERY and JIM CROW……….. where in one’s fucking logic could ANYONE trust a mind set like that? FREEDOM & DEMOCRACY?????? Horse shit!
But the Russians did.
But rather than the United States living up to it’s “integrity”, it worked to “Contain-Russia”!
But in truth, who should be contained?
The United States has a military budget of a zillion dollars and military intrusions to match. The Russians don’t! The Chinese don’t!
The United States has attacked more countries in the world today than China and Russia combined! In truth, Russian and China look like pacifist in comparison.
EXACTLY WHO SHOULD BE CONTAINED?
If the United States can make “economic treaties” and become “trading partners” with both Russia and China, why exactly can’t we stop this aggression toward one another?
Well the easy answer ………. war profiteering! All of them make big bucks in war sales!
Hey, haven’t you heard ……… the business of business is business.
But on top of that the game of natural resources and who controls them is paramount, or “we the people” are made to believe so.
The US military is the biggest purchaser of oil in the world.
“Energy consumed per active duty military and civilian personnel is 35 percent higher than the U.S. energy consumption per capita, which is amongst the highest in the world. While consuming that amount of energy, DoD (Department of Defense) emitted 73 million metric tons of CO2, corresponding to over 4 percent of the total emissions in USA.” (The Daily Energy Report, 2009)
The DoD uses 360,000 barrels of oil each day. There are only 35 countries in the world that consume more oil than the DoD.
So what we have here is the need to consume oil at that high rate in order to maintain our continuous wars for oil control so we can maintain our supply of oil which we depend on to supply our oil in which to fight our oil wars.
SAY WHAT?
So wouldn’t it be easier to just cut the military?
AIN’T LIFE A BITCH: UKRAINE
With Tubularsock focused on his run for the White House which if elected will be painted RED as a reminder of the amount of blood the U.S. has demanded from the rest of the world. They just are not cooperating with the U.S. imperial takeover.
Damn foreigners …… wanting to do it their way and they DON’T EVEN SPEAK ENGLISH!
The current President of the Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko has petitioned the Constitutional Court of Ukraine to: “. . . acknowledge that the law ‘on the removal of the presidential title from Viktor Yanukovych’ as unconstitutional.”
Now ain’t that the shit!
Petro Poroshenko “. . . admitted prior to 26 February 2014, to the EU’s investigator, and right after the February 22nd overthrow of Yanukovych, that the overthrow was a coup . . .”
He also admitted “. . . that it was even a false flag operation, in which the snipers, who were dressed as if they were Ukrainian Security Bureau troops, were actually not . . .”
The EU investigator’s report stated, “. . . all the evidence shows that the people who were killed by snipers, from both sides, among policemen and people from the streets, that they were the same snipers, killing people from both sides . . . Behind the snipers, it was not Yanukovych, but it was somebody from the new coalition.”
Now anyone who has followed this American orchestrated Ukrainian overthrow and the subsequent blaming of the “Russian-invasion” of Ukraine will not be surprised that the Nazis that have been put in power by the American State Department’s very own Victoria Nuland are now planning to assemble in Kiev on July 3rd to overthrow Poroshenko unless he restarts right now the war against the Donbass region.
These Nazi are the same group that the U.S. hired for the coup and for the ethnic cleansing campaign in Ukraine’s former Donbass region which the Nazi-Loving-Nuland supported.
Meanwhile back at the ranch ……..
The UN General Assembly’s Third Committee passed a Russia-proposed resolution condemning attempts to glorify Nazism ideology and denial of German Nazi war crimes. The US, Canada and Ukraine were the only countries to vote against it.
So, if the Constitutional Court of Ukraine grants Poroshenko’s petition “. . . then the appointment of Arseniy Yatsenyuk by the U.S. State Department’s Victoria Nuland on 4 February 2014, which was confirmed by the Ukrainian parliament (or Rada) at the end of the coup on February 26th, and the other appointments which were made, including that of Oleksandr Turchynov to fill in for Yanukovych as caretaker President until one of the junta’s chosen candidates would be ‘elected’ on May 25th of 2014, which ‘election’ Poroshenko won — all of this was illegal.” (Eric Zuesse, “Ukraine’s Pres. Poroshenko Says Overthrow of Yanukovych Was a Coup”)
Are you following this?
Now is Petro Poroshenko doing this because he see the writing on the wall that the U.S. is about to toss him out and install the Nazis directly and forget all pretense in order to go after Russia?
And if that is the case then the fact that Poroskenko’s election was illegal would also make the new installed Nazi Ukrainian Government illegal as well.
Which might play into Poroskenko hands at a later date.
Meanwhile back at the ranch ……..
“US Will Provide Weapons For NATO Commandos Attack Ukrainian Separatists” (Kurt Nimmo, Global Research)
Which is a clear sign that the U.S. is leaning toward the Nazis desire to resume attacking Donbass.
So the game is simple. We have the Neocons in the form of Victoria Nuland pressuring Obummer to back the Nazi’s against the Russians. And Samantha Powers voting against the anti-Nazi Russian proposal at the U.N. because it was the Russians that proposed it and the U.S. is backing Nazis in Ukraine.
You know, Obummer is just rotten at foreign policy as well as health care. The boy has no backbone. Supporting Nazis? Supporting ISIS? Supporting Corporate Profit Care?
Is this country just a little bit sick in the head, or what?
Meanwhile back at the ranch ……..
“Gazprom and Royal Dutch Shell are teaming up on several energy projects that will benefit both. The two energy companies have agreed to build an expansion of the Nord Stream Pipeline, a major natural gas pipeline that travels beneath the Baltic Sea. The pipeline is a priority for Russia, which will allow it to expand its natural gas exports to Europe while also cutting out Ukraine from the mix.” (Charles Kennedy, OilPrice.com) 
So it’s business as usual for the oil corporations even with all these sanctions that the U.S. forced on the Russians over the Ukraine mess. You see money and corporate-power-plays trump the games being played out by mere nation states. And as TPP proceeds the future will just be directed by CEO’s not Presidents.
But does it matter? Our vote really doesn’t count for either anyway.
Tubularsock
