Europe should declare neutrality in respect of all current wars and other conflicts; however, it seems to be going the other way…

NWO/ZOG…

[“Meanwhile in Europe: France— Marine Le Pen sentenced and barred from running in the elections. Romania— Elections canceled, winning candidate arrested and imprisoned. Germany– Preparations for a similar scenario against the AfD party. Slovakia— assassination attempt against anti-war Prime Minister Robert Fico. Hungary— Continued attacks against Orbán and pressure to exclude Hungary from EU decisions. Estonia— 25% of Russians barred from voting in the elections.”]

[“By effectively equating any form of engagement with Russia with a potential offence, the UK authorities have further cemented Britain’s status as one of the most unfriendly Western jurisdictions. The move leaves little doubt that the UK intends to further escalate its confrontation with Russia. http://t.me/RusEmbUK/2086“]

Talking point

Runcorn and Helsby by-election

https://labourlist.org/2025/04/runcorn-helsby-reform-local-elections-2025-labourlist-survation-poll/

“More than half of LabourList readers expect Labour to lose the Runcorn and Helsby by-election and anticipate the party will lose a “significant number of seats” at the local elections, exclusive polling by Survation for LabourList has revealed.

Around 53% of those surveyed believe Reform UK candidate Sarah Pochin will win the first Westminster by-election of the parliament, taking place on May 1.

Less than a quarter said they expected Labour to hold the seat when voters go to the polls, with around one in five (19%) unsure as to which party will emerge the victor.”

In Russian translation; includes Teheran and Isfahan.

As frequently said before on the blog, Russia cannot lose this war and will not lose this war.

The 20th of July 2019: thoughts

Today is the 75th anniversary of the attempt made to assassinate Adolf Hitler at his headquarters in East Prussia, the Wolfsschanze (Wolf’s Lair), now situated within the borders of post-1945 Poland.

I blogged last year about matters around the event and around those times more generally:

What is there to add? Perhaps a reminder that human manifestations on this Earth do not last forever. The film, below, shows what the sprawling headquarters of 1944 is like today: as abandoned and lost as the cities of the Aztecs or the Mayans.

On the other hand, the devastated cities of the Germany of 1944 and 1945 are today thriving governmental, commercial, cultural and residential centres, with populations again in the hundreds of thousands or even millions.

The above photographs show the devastation resulting from war. Today, those same areas are prosperous, busy, thronged with inhabitants. Some of the old has been replaced, some kept, adapted to contemporary usage.

The same is true of ideas. Both the practical and the spiritual-cultural achievements of National Socialism were huge, enormous, particularly when it is considered that they were achieved within only 6 years of peace, the years 1933-1939. SIX YEARS!

We do not need to copy or indeed defend everything that was done by, or in the name of, the Reich. Indeed, many of the flaws of the Reich, or supposed flaws, existed and in fact were even more glaring in both the West and the Soviet Union of the 1930s. The Zeitgeist streamed over the world as a whole, like the jetstream.

In 2019, we honour what was good in the Reich, what worked for the German people and the peoples of all Europe. The rest, we do not need. Times move on. Some challenges remain; others, newly emerged, have to be faced for the first time.
