#Nebenzia: An indirect confrontation between #NATO and #Russia objectively increases the risk of a direct clash between Russia and the Alliance, regardless of how much NATO claims to be doing everything it can to prevent such a scenario.
Looking at the replies to the above tweet by unthinking and/or brainwashed persons supporting the Kiev-regime, one realizes how the two world wars started, meaning from the standpoint of public opinion.
The anti-Russia tweeters, many cheerleading for actual war with Russia, seem to be oblivious to what nuclear war would mean for them, for their families and companion animals, for their homes, their neighbourhoods, for their whole way of life (assuming that they themselves even survive).
Reading those stupid tweets, for me the clock or countdown to the destruction of our whole society in Europe (in Russia and the USA as well) just ticked on by a couple of minutes and is not far from striking the hour.
Leaked video shows researchers shared data w/ Israeli Ministry of Health showing serious + long-term side effects with Pfizer’s COVID vaccine, but Israeli health officials told public in an August report that serious side effects were “rare” + short-term.https://t.co/6v5aT1M4Ld
We’re on the verge of major economic collapse, created entirely by the policies of our WEF-infested governments & unelected Eurocrats. People will suffer, but the question remains: are they going to beg the very people who did this for help? Or are they going to wake up & resist?
Having seen the supine populations of Europe, North America, Australasia comply with the perhaps-deliberately absurd demands of 2020-2021 —facemask nonsense, “rule of six” in the UK, “lockdown” (shutdown) etc—, and seeing how only a minority seem to understand that the present downturn is mainly because of the shutdown of economic activity 2020-2021, I am not optimistic. However, hunger and desperation may sharpen perceptions and lead to real upsurges.
1/2 @bernardgray4. And sometimes it is not. If there had been no 1914 war, there'd have been no Hitler, no Lenin and no Stalin. All the horrors of the last 100 years stem from the idiotic war fever of that period. Now neocon morons seek *more* avoidable wars. https://t.co/QpTErcSKWe
2/2 @bernardgray and if you really think wars are fought because we don't like tyranny, I assume you and yours will be signing up for the huge legions necessary to challenge tyranny in China and Saudi Arabia and Egypt etc etc , forever and ever. Naivety survives everything, eh? https://t.co/QpTErcSKWe
Every blasted war enthusiast should be taken to see this picture. The joyous man in the middle of it with a flower in his rifle is the son of the artist, who died in the war. The sad grey-haired woman on the left is his mother. https://t.co/auSyzUq6LQ
This person @jimmysecuk has been challenged again and again to justify his abusive false allegations. He has failed. Yet he persists. What will happen to our free society if people think that repeatedly defaming others is a form of debate? https://t.co/4Dddtg97jw
That “@jimmysecuk” tweeter used to gossip with (other?) malicious Jews about me, when I still had a Twitter “account”, that is until a pack of Zionist Jews conspired to have me “suspended” (expelled) in 2018. Formerly connected (a student?) with Exeter University.
If I recall aright, “jimmysecuk” used to be quite plainly very pro-Israel on Twitter.
“@jimmysecuk” claimed, in recent years, to be a journalist, though there seems to be no evidence of that (always uses the pseudonym, and I have seen no published matter with that byline), and now claims to be “Kyiv [Kiev] -based independent foreign policy/security analyst“. What organization, newspaper etc actually uses whatever he may produce? Or is that a kind of hobby, funded by a private income? I have no idea.
In that event, further escalation will be almost inevitable. This is not 1942. Russia has weapons that it has not yet used and which, at peak, could actually reduce the entire Ukraine to an irradiated wasteland, which would, obviously, be a terrible thing for Europe and for the whole world as well as for Ukraine and, indeed, Russia itself.
Had the Russian General Staff and GRU not been criminally negligent, the invasion of Ukraine (certainly Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and also including both Kiev and Odessa) could have been accomplished swiftly, and with minimal loss of life.
The whole campaign has been both “bitty” and sluggish. The lack of a firm directing hand has been evident throughout.
Compare that to the Red Army and Stavka, under Stalin’s dictatorship, during the 1942-1945 period.
This could rapidly become an existential crisis not only for Putin and his regime but for the Russian state itself. Russia has to regain the initiative, or be defeated in the field.
Russian upheavals and revolutions have usually followed military defeat, as seen in, inter alia, 1905 and 1917.
Late thought
My feeling is that sometimes monarchy is the best system (for a particular country, at a particular time in history), whether “constitutional” or “absolute”.
At other times, monarchy is not the best system, but the alternative is not simply “a republic” because that designation covers everything from utter despotism to a system such as that pertaining in Switzerland.
As to the new King Charles III himself, and as readers of this blog may have read, I met him once, briefly, at a reception overseas, and we exchanged a few polite words.
My view, based on that but also and mainly on what I have heard and read over half a century or so: well-meaning, somewhat but not highly educated, self-absorbed and possibly peevish at times, someone with firm but not always nuanced views.
Example of that last, his views on architecture, which tend to the pastiche and simplistic, as seen both in his Poundbury development and in his support for slightly eclectic neo-classicism (as with Quinlan Terry). Not “wrong”, but just slightly trivial and derivative, in my view.
Monarchy in the UK has changed out of all recognition over the last few centuries. While the late Queen was alive, I was willing to accept constitutional monarchy. Less so now, and not at all once the present King is succeeded by one of his children or any other.
Just thinking about how this latest news about Trump and Melania will play politically. Already I have seen opinions to the effect that Trump does not really have “the virus” and that Boris-idiot likewise never had it. Maybe so, but my inclination is to believe that both had/have it.
In respect of Trump, what matters is whether he recovers or not. If not, then (obviously) he will not win the upcoming election because he will be dead. In that event, Mike Pence would have every chance of beating Joe Biden and winning the Presidency for the Republican Party.
The more likely event is that Trump will recover. In the world as a whole, only one person has died so far out of every 8,000. In the USA, there have been (as the BBC and Sky keep telling us, usually without giving the per capita context…) about 200,000 or so deaths; that, though, is out of a population of about 330,000,000. 1 death out of every 1,500 or so of the population. In respect of known (tested) cases, nearly 5 million cases and, of those, 96% (4,737,000 approx) recovered; about 4% died: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/
Trump is 74, overweight etc, and so in a generally more vulnerable than average category. However, the odds are that he will recover. So how does that play?
In my view, Trump getting “the virus” and then recovering would boost his standing considerably. It would validate what he has always said, and which is after all backed by the statistics: that in the USA, 96% of those who actually have had “Coronavirus” have recovered. Thus, while this virus is certainly a major public health threat, it is not the plague, not the Black Death, and society must not be shut down because of its existence.
Boris Johnson please note…
The US election is close, and not so easy to predict. The Electoral College electoral system is very odd, a very 18th Century idea of democracy. Each state has a number of Electoral College votes, based on the amount of population. Whichever candidate wins the most votes in each state gets all the Electoral College votes for that state (with two exceptions, Maine and Nebraska): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Electoral_College
Thus (as with the British electoral system based on MPs elected from constituencies), it is quite possible for a Presidential candidate to get a minority of the popular vote yet win the Presidency because that candidate has won a majority of the Electoral College votes. That is in fact what happened in 2016: Trump won a minority of the popular vote, but a majority of the Electoral College vote.
The bookmakers (in the UK) are making Joe Biden a close favourite over Trump, but it is still close enough to be uncertain. The demographics (increasing non-white populations in the US) favour the Democrats, but the majority is still small, though growing.
Superficially, Biden seems to have the election half-won, but I am not sure that Trump can be written off (assuming that he does not succumb to “the virus”). Trump’s handling of the virus situation is a major card for the Democrats. If Trump himself, at his age and in his condition of health and fitness, can pull through, that must strengthen his case on the virus and how to handle it, and would tend to back his preference for fully re-opening the economy.
There again, many white Americans especially will have been looking at the scenes of near-anarchy and even near civil war in some cities, and wondering whether Trump is not a better bet than Biden and the Democrats. After the recent “debate” shouting match, when (from what I have heard) Biden seemed almost ga-ga, this election may be very close indeed.
[Update, 29 August 2023: my view now on “Boris” and Trump getting the Covid virus is that they probably did, but that it was blown up out of proportion in order to increase the reach of the fear propaganda, and that neither was ever in real danger].
Why does @ChtyCommission allow Zionist groups to ‘police’ UK citizens using tactics synonymous with The Cheka police. How long before ‘volunteers’ claim leather coats on expenses? Make no mistake #Chekism is alive and well just watch Joe Glasman’s video. https://t.co/zZvuGe5HWg
Soon, Europe must confront both Israel and the Zionists based in Europe. The Arabs —and Muslims generally— are likewise antipathetic to European race and culture. We need a pan-European “third way”, linked to the people of Russia and to their future.

Overwhelming majority of universities join overwhelming majority of councils, international orgs and UN member states in not adopting the Universal Global International IHRA Definition of Antisemitism. Robert Jenrick “Extremely Disappointed in Everyone” https://t.co/2MW0bMFc8w
In fact, only about 20 states have adopted the so-called “Definition”; out of about 200 states in the world.
As for corrupt little pissant Robert Jenrick, member of Conservative Friends of Israel, he is completely (((suborned))). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Jenrick#Controversies. He is married to a Jewish woman, a property lawyer, and their children are being brought up as Jewish. In fact, Jenrick has a lot in common with Keir Starmer.
I very much hope that @FraserNelson is right about this. I suspect that there will be an incoherent revolt against petty, counter-productive and absurd restrictions by people who still *say* they believe in the reasoning behind them. How far will that get? https://t.co/2gCSsPeRa3

I happened to see this video, made in July 2020:
This one too:
I myself would never waste time “debating” with such [redacted because of the lack of freedom of expression in the UK]. In fact, I would not bother to “debate” with most white British people either. I am here to put forward my own views, ideas and policies, uncompromisingly. “Debates” tend to produce heat but no light, as on the pathetic BBC Question Time. A show for the entertainment of people with little better to do.
I know that I am not alone in noticing that TV ads in the UK are now even more than heretobefore the vehicle for racemixing propaganda. Almost every ad now is replete with blacks and other non-whites, as well as the TV “families” with the white (often blonde) woman, the black man, and the mixed-race children.
Who do you think is behind all this? You know who…(((the you-know-who))).
All part of “the Plan” (the Coudenhove-Kalergi Plan)…
Those people who say “I have lost a son/daughter/father/mother/grandparent/significant other to Coronavirus, so please do XYZ, and do not be COVID-19 deniers” are like people who say “I have lost [whoever] because of a traffic accident, so please never drive a car except at below 10 mph, and do not be traffic accident deniers“. Except that no-one sane ever says the latter, because such a suggestion would be seen as wildly disproportionate, as well as importing emotional blackmail into what should be a reasoned argument.
Pleasant sentiments, but I noticed that that tweet was retweeted by Jew-Zionist fanatic and Twitter troll “@frankiescar” (real name Andrew Roberjot, apparently a failed businessman of some kind and now a “legal people” groupie, though not legally-qualified, I believe), someone so unpleasant that he actually turned up to gloat when I appeared at the Bar Disciplinary Tribunal (I was disbarred thanks to a pack of Jews, most of whom were known to him): https://ianrmillard.wordpress.com/2017/07/13/when-i-was-a-victim-of-a-malicious-zionist-complaint/
That is, so to speak, “very Twitter”, people who tweet or retweet all sorts of beautiful sentiments, while behaving like shits. Virtue-signallers. Fakes.
A pseudonymous but obviously Jew-Zionist Twitter account, tied in with the “Campaign Against Antisemitism” criminals, and making dark, if obscure, threats. In fact, I seem to recall “@badscooter” making the very same or very similar threats as long ago as 2012 or thereabouts. This is the kind of tweeter that the Metropolitan Police should investigate. If not, perhaps someone with money can discover his identity via civil litigation (e.g. via methods such as a Norwich Pharmacal order: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwich_Pharmacal_order).
Meanwhile, badscooter’s Twitter friend and fellow criminal, “@nathanjoseph198”, has just gone up the Twitter chimney: https://twitter.com/nathanjoseph198.

These bitter & twisted liberals do this every time someone who hasn't succumbed to covid hysteria gets it. Berlusconi, Bolsover, etc. But the fact these elderly men promptly recover proves their point. As does fact that flu is killing 11x as many as covidhttps://t.co/f3qG4lWACt
At last! Recognition for one of the few brave souls who battled cowardice, snobbery and anti-white bigotry to secure justice for some of the million victims of #grooming gangs.
Censorship and banning (etc) is becoming the norm. The “West” used to stand for freedom, more or less. No longer.
What interests me is the *fury* of this pile-on, which followed a brief answer to a question. Plainly a lot of people know the Gordon Brown carriers are ridiculous white elephants, but hate to admit it. It is this unresponsive rage that keeps me going. Always a sign of doubt. https://t.co/nDPzYH843h
Angry? Not I. Sad to see naval persons gulled by MoD PR . Look, a country that operates actual aircraft carriers uses catapults and maintains a dedicated naval air service. Can't afford that? Then don't pretend. Do what you actually can. https://t.co/YbcAMv97k4
It took 30 years for the navies of the world to realise that battleships were ultimately just targets. Aircraft Carriers going through the same process now. https://t.co/GLcV5ssmIx
Britain is a country the governmental policies of which are driven largely by lobbies: the Jew-Zionist lobby, the subsidized-farming lobby, the banking lobby, and so on; in this case, the defence procurement and military lobby. One can however oppose, say, the military-industrial lobby, or the subsidized farming lobby, without being hostile to either defence or agriculture.
That is a questionable statement. What are NATO exercises for @stan_smith1984? Soviet Union, and Warsaw Pact, against which NATO was formed, ceased to exist 30 years ago. https://t.co/HBiTZCFuM8

I vaguely remember “@JimmySecUK”, one of a number of insolent and ignorant bastards who were put in their place by me (and blocked me) on Twitter. Britain is full of these would-be “defence and security” “experts”, often armed with degrees from places that offer obscure “security and intelligence” or “international relations” courses; Exeter, Lancaster, KCL etc. This particular “expert”, or postgraduate student, or whatever he is, is very tied in with the Zionist/Israel/NWO/”interventionism” cabal on Twitter.
