Wagner leaving Africa

The decapitation of the Wagner group was going to lead to major change in its African operations. Right now there are rumours that several divisions have already left their post. It is evident that this is done very quietly and be denied by everyone. It is entirely probable that the Russians are looking to replace the command systems of the Wagner group with their own commands, but the soldiers are less than interested, and have made a lot of money, and have no appetite to return to the Russian armed forces.

The Wagner group of soldiers have a little interest in returning the Russian army, which is known for its incompetence and corruption. This means that officers and unlisted men who have the means have already put in place alternative exits strategy, so that they can not return to Russia

It was telling when the offices of Vágner were overtaken by the Russian army, that they found money different identities for the head of Vágner and you can assume that others within the group had the same strategy.

We can expect denial, denial, and denial over the coming weeks as those in command of the Wagner group in Africa execute preplanned departure from the countries in which they have been deployed.  This will change Russia’s activity in the greater African continent. It will change Russian activity in the Middle East in Syria particular, it is an interesting outcome that no one had anticipated. 

In the end, it matters little Putin‘s real focus is on securing his countries border as far as a Cancun sure that no invasion can take place. It is a 19 century view of the world where invasion is done by tanks. It is evident the tanks are no longer the solution of the theatre of war as drones have taken over and destroyed a number of them. 

And so we find yourself in the position of figuring out who will fill the Russian vacuum in Africa assist juncture it is unknown

Ok so I lied...a little (revised)

When we began looking at farming in 2013/14 as something we both wanted to do as a "second career" we invested time and money to understand what sector of farming was profitable.  A few things emerged, First, high-quality, source-proven, organic farm products consistently have much higher profit margins.  Secondly, transformation accounted for nearly 80% of total profits, and production and distribution accounted for 20% of profits: Farmers and retailers have low profit margins and the middle bits make all the money. A profitable farm operation needs to be involved in the transformation of its produce.  The low-hanging fruits: cheese and butter.  Milk, generates a profit margin of 5% to 8%, depending on milk quality.  Transformed into cheese and butter, and the profit margin rises to 40% (Taking into account all costs).  Second:  20% of a steer carcass is ground beef quality.  The price is low, because (a) a high percentage of the carcass, and (b)...

Spray painting Taylor Swift G650 aircraft (updated)

 First, a bit of paint will not harm anyone.  These climate activities are going to learn two things in the next few days:  (1) Trespassing at an airport is a felony almost anywhere in the world.  That means criminal prosecution.   (2) removing paint from an aircraft is expensive.   So these climate activists are about to find out the reach of the British criminal system and it will not be pleasant, the UK has very strict laws about that, I would be surprised if cleaning the aircraft of all the paint will cost less than $100,000.     I am sure that when they planned (premeditation) this little show they had a very valid logic to doing this.  Tonight, they are probably realizing the depth of their troubles.   I understand that in the UK it's a minimum one-year jail sentence.    Also, good luck travelling with a criminal trespass charge against you.  I am relatively certain that the airline industry will ...

Janet Yellen from China supporter to Hawk...

There is rarely serious news in the world these days, it seems that most newspapers are filled with headlines and little else, and then Ms Yellen went to China.  Secretary Yellen has long been known in the Biden administration as the voice of moderation when dealing with China, yet as her trip which concluded yesterday a hawk was born:  She warned the Chinese against dumping goods in the United States.    fighting words! The American administration is very concerned about the lack of Chinese domestic consumption.   Even before the COVID-19 epidemic, there were already the beginning signs of a slowdown, automobile sales were off.   China is facing domestic deflation (a clear sign of collapsing demand) China imports few consumer goods, they import raw materials and intermediary goods.   It seems that the American administration is concerned that the Chinese administration will dump consumer goods abroad to keep its manufacturing machinery ...
