MICHAEL WALSH: FIRST In 2014 and 2022 I was mocked and scorned by plankton for correctly predicting the Defeat of the West’s Ukrainian battering ram, NATO-backed Kiev.

Today, the scoffers are silent. There is no humility in the spineless debauched West.

Russia has won a war against the West: What the Putin-Trump call really means. FACT: The new reality is that the West can be stopped and made to negotiate on Russia’s terms

It’s obviously good news for the world that the US has finally ended its headstrong policy of anti-diplomacy (its absurd essence).

DUMB: When there’s a really dangerous problem, do not try to solve it by communicating) regarding Russia, the other great power with a massive nuclear arsenal.

But let’s not forget the even bigger picture: US President Donald Trump (whose previous administration prepared Ukraine for war against Russia) will not (and cannot) admit it. A true statesman, Russian President Vladimir Putin is wise enough to not rub it in.

But the single most important takeaway from yesterday’s phone conversation is that Russia has won a war against the West. Yes, it was a ‘Punish Putin’ half-proxy NATO war for both Russia and Ukraine, but that makes little geopolitical difference now.

The dumbass West has been asking for this defeat. It could have easily been avoided, either by finding a compromise with Russia (2014 and 2022) earlier or by staying out of the fight between Moscow and Kyiv.

But now things are what they are and the new reality is that the West can be stopped and forced to negotiate on the Kremin’s terms. The whole world knows this now as a tested, undeniable fact. This is a historic turning point, and also good news for humanity. The reverberations will be felt for decades.

Punish Putin? That is punishing Putin, is it? Pride becomes the fall. The entire liberal political class in Europe should be whipped back into the sewers.

Ukrainians have been used, abused and sold out then thrown into the long grass with over 1 million dead and 22 million refugees. As Russia’s Dmitry Medvedev said, ‘Ukraine is now ERROR 404 NOT FOUND’. Thank you, NATO, you stupid as f*** incompetent big-mouthed braggards.

Those few in the West warning that this would happen – like me – were systematically maligned and sidelined. But now it will be Ukraine’s false ‘friends’ (and their own US- and Canadian-based diaspora) who should have a reckoning coming.

So does the Kyiv regime. The tragedy of Ukraine is immense, and it was unnecessary. In Ukraine, this, too, will become a historic turning point and will have long-lasting consequences. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse ride roughshod over what was once Europe’s largest nation and democracy.

What will happen between the US and Russia is not yet predictable, but IF lessons have been learnt, a broader détente is likely. The perversely, self-destructive, treasonously obedient EU elites, in any case, will learn what it feels like to be first used and then ignored, just like Ukraine.

The worst thing they could do – and as things currently stand, something they might actually do – is let the US ‘Europeanize’ the war.

The toxic ‘Democrat ‘Biden administration has done a brilliant job wrecking its EU-NATO vassals. Trump might complete it by luring them into the trap of trying to tangle with Russia on their own – while Washington and Moscow make up, as they should. PLEASE INSPIRE OTHERS BY SHARING OUR STORIES
