“Zelensky Wants War ….” In the stack.
Russia says Ukraine attacked one of Putin’s residences 200 miles NW of Moscow, and, that all 91 drones were shot down. Russia always says all Ukrainian drones are shot down, and, that any damage is caused by falling debris.
Satellite photos of the area may show that Putin’s home was, or was not, attacked, depending on how soon they are taken, as in before Putin has “evidence” in place.
There are reasons to think this is a Russian propaganda ploy.
I. Putin told Trump about the attack by phone just after Zekensky met with Trump. This looks like getting your story in first, which is one way to sway someone in your favor. That’s typical propaganda manipulation.
II. It’s unlikely that Ukraine would attack Putin’s home exactly when Zelensky is trying to get Trump’s support for the proposed EU/Ukraine 20 point peace treaty. That’s shooting yourself in the foot at the worst possible time. This would surely kill the best deal Ukraine is likely to ever get, thus pleasing Putin.
III. Ukraine might have a few drones that can go that far from Ukraine, but 91 is very unlikely. It’s possible that Ukraine’s secret service could get drones inside Russia for an attack. But,such drones would very short range, small and with small warheads, as they were for an earlier attack on Russia’s long range aircraft. In other words, very unlikely to damage a no doubt reinforced and well shielded residence for Putin – a useless, self-defeating exercise.
IV. Putin and his cronies had already said Zekensky’s deal was unacceptable. They have always said Russia would not leave any occupied areas, and, that Russia’s goal is the complete conquest of Ukraine.
V. There is commentary that implies that Britain’s MI6 intelligence branch conducted the attack [“President Trump Responds To 91 Drone Attack ….” Sundance commentary at Conservative Treehouse]. This is a real stretch for Prime Minister Starmer’s badly wounded Labor Party’s government, with stunningly low 14% support in election polls.
We will no doubt see the usual Russian blizzard of disinformation and red herrings bashing Ukraine and the EU as vicious thugs trying to undermine Putin’s patriotic efforts to reunite all territories with Russian speakers within the Russian Federation.
Bottom line: Putin IS NOT going to agree to a cease fire or peace deal that does not increase his advantage and weaken Ukraine. Zelensky and his European friends know this, Trump apparently does not, or, is ok with forcing Ukraine into a bad deal that shelters him from blame as he reduces America’s role in European affairs, in accordance with Trump’s new National Security Strategy.
Unfortunately, the Ukraine problem splits the MAGA movement at a time when we should be unified to prepare for the 2026 elections.
Too many conservative isolationists are willing to believe Russian propaganda. They believe that Putin is the good guy and Ukrainians are the bad guys because that is what they want to believe, as it justifies not helping Ukraine.
Conservative internationalists worry about the long term threat a revived, provenly aggressive, USSR poses to Europe, and thus, ultimately, Western Civilization.
