Russia Is Reviving ...

 ... a number of military officer schools (academies) such as Chelyabinsk Higher Command Tank School. This is for those who predicted the death of tanks as weapon system. Amateurs. You CAN NOT prepare cadre officer through ROTC anymore. Mike Mihailovich asked the question some time ago. It has been answered already--military generalists, the type prepared in the US and EU--are not adequate for modern battlefield. 

Yes, "Anti-Europe".

Interesting event. 

On September 17th, the Litfond foundation will hold an auction featuring the first printed biography of Ivan the Terrible. The book is by the Lutheran pastor Paul Oederborn, published in Görlitz in 1588. This is the first biography of the Russian monarch in European printing; the next Russian Tsar, Peter I, would not be the subject of a separate book in the West for another century. However, the work is considered not a biography, but a political pamphlet – the culmination of a propaganda campaign against the Moscow Tsardom after the Livonian War. It is classified as part of the "Ivanian" movement, within which the image of Russia was shaped as "Anti-Europe."

Here it is.

Nothing is new under the sun. And yes, today Russia is "Anti-Europe", because what Europe is today has no right to exist. A playground of satanists, pedophiles, war criminals and nutjobs. 

El Alamein Show.

It is a crude commentary, but it is in English. Some interesting visuals. 

Keep in mind that Russia officially confirmed the sale of SU-34s abroad. Algeria already operates export version of SU-57. Could the sale of SU-34 also be to Algeria? SU-34 is an immensely powerful strike aircraft and new strike systems are being brought by Russia to the weapons' market. Such as already demonstrated S-71K Kover (literally Carpet). Kover is not a mockup, it is being used in SMO as a standard strike package for SU-57. 

You See This?

That's how REAL BRICS looks like. Iran has a huge say now, so is it BRIICS now? You can bet your ass on that--courage, steadfastness, ability to deliver--this is what really matters. Pezeshkian may not be the fan of IIRG but it is they who opened the door for Iran into the Premier League. 

This is an exquisite club. Except ... I looked at the menu--it is a lent month in India at it is all vegetarian. Nope, should have been Moscow, Beijing or ... Tehran--meat is always served there. Boy, Iranian Abgoosht is to die for. 

It Is In Russian ...

 ... but it shows you what modern war looks like. These guys shouldn't be driving tanks anymore, because the weight of their balls of steel will make those tanks really immobile and there is no new engine yet which would be able to move such a tank.

Also shows what T-90s really made of, as well as counter-drone support from the troops of the unmanned systems. That's REAL war.

They Never Studied ...

 ... real economics, physics and math. Most of this ruling class in the West is a collection of incompetent ideologues who continue to fuck things up non-stop because none of them ever worked real job in productive capacity and all of them will run profitable 7-11 into the ground within two weeks of their "management". Add here a chronic hatred of everything Russian multiply it by egos larger than cathedrals and voila'.  

Here is a demonstration of what their societies are. Germany, Die Linke. 

A party of freaks and perverts. CDU or SPD are the same, just more presentable publicly. They love Nazis, hate Russians. Well, Europeans, you continue to elect those freaks ranging from Macrons to Merzes, to other types of corrupt demagogues. Same here, in the US, but the US is naturally rich and is hard to squander everything that fast in historic terms. So, Europe, enjoy on the way to poverty. Pay attention to what Putin says about gas (energy in general)--that it is not exactly a market commodity. 

Real Economics ...

 ... that is economics which is based on producing REAL things and critical services, like math and physics, doesn't give a flying coitus about smartass speculators who are produced in bulk at Ivy League degree mills and then write books on how to become a millionaire by specu ... pardon me--investing. Keep in mind--none of them has any clue about real mechanism from which money derive power. Throw away good ol' tale about donkey loaded with gold which opens gates to any fortress. Not really, it is hit and miss. 

Oil prices from Russia’s Pacific coast are climbing as Chinese refiners intensify their purchase of spot cargoes due to limited supply options. This development reflects a tightening oil market, driven by increased Chinese demand for Russian crude. The surge in demand is likely affecting global oil price dynamics, particularly as geopolitical factors and supply constraints come into play. Market participants are closely monitoring these shifts, as they could influence the probability of crude oil reaching new all-time highs.

Or, as Roger wrote for the greatest album ever created. 

Money, get back
I'm alright, Jack, keep your hands off of my stack
Money, it's a hit
Ah, don't give me that do-goody-good bullshit

Hands off of China's and India's stack, because the stack accumulates because of energy--the real mover of everything in Universe. Money is just avatar, you cannot produce shit with money alone. You also cannot buy everyone, as they thought you could. Naive petulant children, evil children. Some things are not for sale, unlike US Congress and the White House. Russian stack--yeah, they tried and failed yet again. They may still steal whatever frozen funds they keep, likely already, but cold hard barrel of Russian Stechkin is already pressing against the backs of their heads.
