Wow, and wow! From your references to the Prussian background to the role of the resolute Russians to the current roles both Putin, and others take to respond to the current situation, including Trump and the “west” it is really a revelation to many as the roles of the various players on the field is revealed through your God-given gifts. You, once again, have revealed the possible (and likely) roles of those most didn’t understand to even have a role OR the unlikely paths that must be taken to take the steps to win this battle between good and evil! One of the ways has been to hide the truth behind smoke and mirrors while the cabal-supported mouthpieces work to muddy the waters. Once again (and there is much more to comment on) I must consider everything else you have addressed in this battlefield and walk away amazed that 1) You’ve been blessed with these gifts, and 2) you’re willing to share with us! I do not know how many followers you have, but you are the 1st I supported with our meager dollars...that’s because you must continue to enlighten and educate! God bless you! Thank you!

Excellent, as usual. I’ve always been fascinated with Russians. They were always the bad guys in most spy novels I read as a kid. After a few years I came to the conclusion they were just filling space as the “boogeyman”. It’s been gratifying to read a different view of Russia and her trials and tribulations. Looking forward to your next installment.

Such lovely writing. Your series has me romanticizing Russia, waiting and imagining that bright future day when we may all travel freely again, truly sovereign families visiting near and distant sovereign villages, just to see what's nice about the place. I choke up in admiration: what courage this is taking. What integrity and patience and strength these patriots have. What "white tremendous daybreak" awaits us, because of it...

I find your articles are increasingly enthralling and edifying BB. It sets me back when look at the body of your work and say to myself, "He just keeps getting better and better, clearer and clearer, gong deeper and deeper". I continue sharing your work as far and wide as I may like just one in a 1,000 hammer blows to break the calcified crust surrounding the perception of Russia to so many. No supposition to it, you have been called to this. Your work is so congruent, so logical, so inciteful to be anything less than inspired. You work calls to folks to open their thoughts and perspectives, to break away from the hypnosis from decades of the spinning propaganda we've been immersed in for far too long. Praise God for He will raise all nations as one to glorify His name.

You can feel it coming.... To quote Kyle, "We may not win every battle, but we'll win this war". REALLY looking forward to the collaboration between you two on "Defected" 9 PM Sunday @Badlandsmedia. You BET is gonna be cool.... Hey, Maybe StarLink via BlueSky will lead you up to that bigger hill I keep saying you need, eh?

Your light Burns ever so Bright my brother.

You move my soul, BurningBright, into a most beautiful Light…an inner place of Love and Faith in humanity.

Honestly, I welled up after reading this piece, as I sat and reflected from the height my reading, your mind, took me.

Please tell me that one day I can make room on my bookshelves for the books you are going to publish!

Thank you for this excellent series ❤️

What a titanic work you have unleashed in your Russia series. I have only just both started and finished reading it today. It is as magisterial an opus as anything Gibbon could have penned. Kudos.

I am tempted to bring to attention the potentially tumultuous things overtly happening in the past 24 hours in the leading letter of the acronym BRICS, namely Brazil.

Tonight Bolsonario has refused to concede and is, I understand, working multiple clandestine resources (including military and possibly international) to bring certain facts to light.

I’m sure the similarities to our own stolen 2020 election has not been missed by sharp minds. It may even have been a template for what is about to happen here again in 2022.

Are we seeing a dry run for what our own Golden Emperor has in store for America?

My wife and I and our 4 children lived in Russia for 17 years. I have deep respect for the people of this nation. Their national anthem still inspires me.

At the conclusion of this series, I find myself rather like Reb Tevye in Fiddler on the Roof, who was caught between his traditions and his daughters' choices of husbands.

I have lived through the Nixon, Reagan, Carter (shudder) eras, and the Cold War and Russia as BAD has been deeply ingrained in me. So much so, sad to say, that I shied away from this series at first.

Yet, the image of Hillary and her reset button (were White Hats trolling her back then?) has always bothered me. Too, this thought pricked my mind - how could I be discerning without reading other points of view?

So I read through all 9 installments, one a day, to give my mind time to ponder each of them a bit. While I don't know that I am now on the same page as you - after all, writing as pithy as yours takes time to truly digest - I can say that, in regards to Russia, I can subscribe to this maxim: the enemy of my enemy is my ally. As I see it, any relationship between Russsia and the United States-as-it-should-be would always be one of respect, not friendship.

But that is how things stand today in my mind, and not necessarily how things will be tomorrow. I am at least open now to the possibilities, myriad and ever-changing, and I have you to thank for that. Keep bright, fearsome tiger. May the sun ever warm you and stoke your light, and may the rain fall gentle on your fur.

Likely “a tired me” started feeling your beginning,above, long winded. I paused. Returning for the meat of your piece ... fabulous, as is usual. I especially enjoyed “the many headed beast” as an encompassing image.

This entire series has stood the test of time! Fascinating to read now over a year later, with hindsight, which you obviously didn’t have. Excellent as always BB!
