Interesting contrast with the balloon and F35 stories in the same blog post. We couldn’t shoot the balloon down over land because it might “fall” on someone, yet our military drops plane occasionally over the same land.
How about this? The balloon was drifting around intending to snag a WTF35 and take it back to China. About as plausible as the hoax so many people fell for.
Nice, cheerful headline from Eugyppius: "Covid Juice 3.0 hits the shelves in Germany, with interest at such record lows that many doctors have not even bothered to stock it." If even the Germans are refusing it, there's hope after all.
The Americans are in a Catch-22 scenario. To really take on the Russians, they'd have to denude or close many of the 800 bases they have around the world. That would put an end to their global military presence and influence. As for how far this will go, who can tell? I'm sure there are many sane (less crazy?) voices in the Pentagon trying to put the brakes on this, but do they have the heft to stop the neocons? And what about those neocons? Is there still a spark of sanity or at least self-preservation left in their fevered minds? At best, they'll drop Ukraine and move on to their next project; at worst, they'll escalate until they hit armageddon.
If only Rod Serling were alive today. He'd love the F-35 story. It's also yet more proof of how detached from reality our Western "elite" is. I remember that fine old Brit writer, Malcolm Muggeridge, saying back in the early 1960s that the hardest job in journalism was writing for satirical magazines, because no matter how hard you satirised events, reality would always through up something even more bizarre.
There is nothing in the dark that isn't there when the lights are on. It may be said with a degree of assurance that not everything that meets the eye is as it appears.
In the not-a-joke catwgory, Mercouris referred near the end of his rather long program today to an interview his partner-in-crime Alex Christoforou did with that genius, Annalena Baerbock, Germany’s foreign minister. After remarking to AC that the world is full of dictators and authoritarians (ahem…), among them of course Xi and Putin, it would be unthinkable to stop supporting Ukraine and allow the Russians to win since that would make the West look weak and only embolden…China! Mercouris, utterly gobsmacked by this preposterous and deluded notion, concludes that, by her lights, we have destroyed a country in order to show how strong we are and to deter any “dictator” from challenging our might. Of course the truth is that we’ve always had Russia in our crosshairs, but, a minor detail, as a result of this proxy war against it, it has not only become stronger both economically and militarily, but it has moved closer to China!! So, trying to impress China with our might has resulted in our diminished standing in the world not to mention our depleted arsenals. What a complete dunce is Baerbock and others of her misbegotten ilk.
It seems that part of the effort to control the American people is to keep them in a near constant state of hysterical reaction to hoax after hoax. The ruling class knew from the get go that the balloon was harmless.
It will also take a very long time to train those soldiers in the use of the advanced weapons systems modern armies rely on. And how do they transport those soldiers to mainland Europe? The Russians will sink and shoot them down before they're mid-ocean.
My friend
The F-35, "Flying Dutchman" kind of a given, eh?
Now to be renamed the WTF35
Reports at X stating F-35 crashed in Williamsburg Co outside Charleston.
Not mentioned is when ?
I still can't believe the AF/ Marines could not track this jet in flight?

Hence the 2 day stand down order across all Marine aviator sections for re-training.

You would think that the F35 had some kind of ability to be tracked by its home base? Or air traffic control? This makes no sense.
The F35 suffers from low self esteem and clearly has a substance abuse problem. Perhaps SSRI drugs can help it should it decide to turn itself in.
And it's unsure about its pronouns. Is it F or G, or maybe Z?
What if they start a universal military draft program and nobody shows up?
Dodging to Canada won’t work. Too much like Poland repatriating Ukes.
I say women and children first.
A lot of planes have disappeared in Alaska and near the Great Lakes. I would look there.😊

Enough with the deductive thinking already.

Thank you, Mark.
I had previously listened, but it bears saying again,
your last link,
Dr. McCullough’s Speech at the European Parliament,
is a MUST LISTEN:

or

I'm amazed they let him in to speak.
$80 Million for an F-35 ???
Not likely, not at all. Even twice that amount is at the low end of the per-unit fly-away amount sunk into that flying junk heap.
There was a mandatory Base drag queen show yesterday, thus no one was on duty tracking the f35s.. the Biden/commie military must have its priorities!
Priorities, Lon, priorities!
Looks like the builders of the stealth aircraft were very successful. Looks like the Cloak of Protection works.
Hope “the bee” provides necessary satire on this.
Visual version of the Cone of Silence?
Yep

At the very same time, we are so completely un-decoupled from China economically, I can't figure out the game.

Remember all the grief Trump took for being tough on the Chinese economically? Geez…

Yes
So the draft is about to reintroduced.
The draft won't work. Large numbers of kids won't show, and of those that do, too many will be physically and mentally unusable.
It will also take a very long time to train those soldiers in the use of the advanced weapons systems modern armies rely on. And how do they transport those soldiers to mainland Europe? The Russians will sink and shoot them down before they're mid-ocean.
