Nuland accidentally reveals the true aim of the West in Ukraine
Regime Change Karen has said the quiet part out loud, complaining that Putinâs Russia is ânot the Russia we wantedâ

US State Department fixture and Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs, Victoria Nuland, aka âRegime Change Karen,â apparently woke up one day recently, took the safety off her nuclear-grade mouth, and inadvertently blew up the Westâs Ukraine narrative.
Until now, Americans have been told that all the US taxpayer cash being earmarked for Ukrainian aid is to help actual Ukrainians. Anyone notice that the $75 billion American contribution isnât getting the job done on the battlefield? Victory in military conflict isnât supposed to look like defeat. Winning also isnât defined as, âWell, on a long enough time axis, like infinity, our chance of defeat will eventually approach zero.â And the $178 billion in total from all allies combined doesnât seem to be doing the trick, either. Short of starting a global war with weapons capable of extending the conflict beyond a regional one, itâs not like theyâve been holding back. The West is breaking the bank. All for some vague, future Ukrainian âvictoryâ that they donât seem to want to clearly define. We keep hearing that the support will last âas long as it takes.â For what exactly? By not clearly defining it, they can keep moving the goal posts.
But now here comes Regime Change Karen, dropping some truth bombs on CNN about Ukrainian aid. She started off with the usual talking point of doing âwhat we have always done, which is defend democracy and freedom around the world.â Conveniently, in places where they have controlling interests and want to keep them â or knock them out of a global competitorâs roster and into their own. âAnd by the way, we have to remember that the bulk of this money is going right back into the US to make those weapons,â Nuland said, pleading in favor of the latest Ukraine aid package thatâs been getting the side eye from Republicans in Congress.
So there you have it, folks. Ukrainians are a convenient pretext to keep the tax cash flowing in the direction of the US military industrial complex. This gives a whole new perspective on âas long as it takes.â Itâs just the usual endless war and profits repackaged as benevolence. But weâve seen this before. It explains why war in Afghanistan was little more than a gateway to Iraq. And why the Global War on Terrorism never seems to end, and only ever mutates. Arguably the best one theyâve come up with so far is the need for military-grade panopticon-style surveillance, so the state can shadow-box permanently with ghosts while bamboozling the general public with murky cyber concepts that it canât understand or conceptualize. When one conflict or threat dials down, another ramps up, boosted by fearmongering rhetoric couched in white-knighting. Thereâs never any endgame or exit ramp to any of these conflicts. And there clearly isnât one for Ukraine, either.
Still, thereâs a sense that the realities on the ground in Ukraine, which favor Russia, now likely mean that the conflict is closer to its end than to its beginning. Acknowledgements abound in the Western press. And that means there isnât much time left for Europe to get aboard the tax cash laundering bandwagon and stuff its own military industrial complexesâ coffers like Washington has been doing from the get-go. Which would explain why a bunch of countries now seem to be rushing to give Ukraine years-long bilateral security âguarantees,â requiring more weapons for everyone. France, Germany, Canada, and Italy have all made the pledge. Plus Denmark, which also flat-out said that it would send all its artillery to Ukraine. If security for Europe is the goal, that sounds kind of like the opposite. Particularly when Ukrainian Foreign Minister Dmitry Kuleba told the EU that âRussia has gotten closer to your homeâ in the wake of the most recent defeat in Avdeevka. He sounds like one of those guys in TV ads trying to peddle burglar alarms. Seems like Russia only exists in the minds of the West these days to justify sending weapons to Ukraine to get blown up, while also justifying to taxpayers why they should continue funding this whole charade.
Meanwhile, the Westâs drive towards peace seems to be taking the scenic route. âAs we move forward, we continue our support to Ukraine in further developing President Zelenskyâs Peace Formula,â G7 leaders said after a recent meeting with Zelensky in Kiev. Nice to see that heâs devoting all his time to this magic peace formula instead of running around extorting his friends for cash by threatening them with Putin.
It was already a pretty big hint of whatâs really been going on when the EU decided to use the taxpayer-funded European Peace Facility to reimburse EU countries for the unloading of their mothballed, second-hand weapons into Ukraine, where Russia can then dispose of them before anyone could be accused of overcharging for clunkers. Now, with the clunker supply running dry, they just have to make more weapons. Maybe funneling cash into weapons for themselves will be the Hail Mary pass that saves their economies that theyâve tanked âfor Ukraineâ?
Thanks to Nulandâs nuking of any plausible deniability on Ukrainian âaidâ not going to Washington, itâs now clear that Ukrainians continue to die so poor weapons makers donât end up shaking tin cans on street corners. She has also removed any doubt about the ultimate US goal being Russian regime change, calling Putinâs leadership ânot the Russia we wanted,âand sounding like someone who chronically sends back a meal to kitchens of a dining establishment. âWe wanted a partner that was going to be Westernizing, that was going to be European. But thatâs not what Putin has done,âshe told CNN. Thatâs exactly what Putin has done, actually. Itâs the West thatâs moved away from itself and is becoming increasingly unrecognizable by its own citizens. Pretty sure that it goes beyond just wanting a country to be âEuropean,â too. Because Germanyâs European, and an ally, and Nuland wouldnât shut up about how much she hated its Nord Stream gas supply â until it mysteriously went kaboom.
Regime Change Karen saying the quiet part out loud has decimated the Western establishmentâs narrative so badly that itâs a miracle no one has yet accused her thermonuclear mouth of being an asset of Russiaâs weapons program.
