Putin is wise to seek a ceasefire now, and the US rejection of a ceasefire, er sorry Ukraine, shows the US wants to extend the war.

Szaba_the_hut is correct in saying the war is at a critical juncture from which escalation is a likely outcome.

the Washington War Party will be more than happy to participate as it fights to the last Ukrainian.

the war is intensifying at Ukraine's expense, with the US proxy master supplying missiles and coordinates inside Russia for targets.

The US is in effect directly making war on Russia, something it has long dreamed of. The way you can tell is looking at allocation of national resources: it devotes debt funding to bombing not building.

a couple of other points.

has anyone else noticed how so much of the news about the war doesn't come with a Canberra dateline? That's because Australia is just a bit player with tangential involvement, just doing its masters bidding.

yet much of the war news comes from America because its their proxy war. According to an un-named official in the Pentagon, familiar with the situation in Ukraine. I mean hello. MSM, including our ABC, is the propaganda arm of the fading western empire.

i almost laughed at the UK scolding China and threatening sanctions for allegedly supplying Russia with components for materiel, while being up to its fetid armpits in doing exactly that for Ukraine.

oh hang on, Russia is the only source of propaganda apparently, whereas the Washington War Party and its allies only serve up gospel truth.
