Well, this week— 6/10, as against political journalist John Rentoul’s 3/10. I did not know the answers to questions 1, 3, 5, and 7. I guessed the first two words of question 7, but not the final one.

Russia must win this war, but neither side should be directly targeting civilians (if that is what that was; seems unclear; it might have been a legitimate military target, such as a general’s or intelligence official’s apartment). The Kiev regime engages in drone terror attacks against Russian civilians almost daily, so itself does not have clean hands.
Zelensky will put US President Donald Trump’s peace plan to a referendum, if Kiev fails to negotiate a better position on Donbass during his upcoming talks with the US leader on Sunday, the Axios news portal said:https://t.co/kgo3WFveodpic.twitter.com/Nh4wmpgrks
Whatever Zelensky says or does, and whatever referendum is held, and whatever the result, Russia is not going to cede control of the Donbass or any other territory.
The Kiev regime is quite plainly now losing the war, its troops are deserting or being killed, and all territorial gains are in one direction.
Once the USA cuts off funding and arms supplies, the game is up (whatever may be then done by pitiful Starmer-stein, Macron, Ursula von der Leyen, or that peculiar creature who now poses as German Chancellor).
While the government squanders billions overseas with no return for taxpayers, the nation at home is rotting – its infrastructure decaying and its once-proud exterior worn down to a tired, neglected shell

Superficially, yes. What difference would 150 make? No difference. The Kiev regime loses about 1,000 in a day, on average. About the same number via desertions.
In fact, were there ever a Russia-NATO conflict, one of Russia’s 6,000+ nuclear weapons would vaporize the base of the new recruits on the first day, or in the first week anyway.

The Jewish/Israeli lobby in the UK, which is effectively an offshoot of Israel, has been trying to close down Al Jazeera for years. “UK Lawyers for Israel”, “Campaign Against Antisemitism” and the rest. All part of the same basic or overall “operation”— a Hydra-headed monster.
Even some Zionist Jews, both inside and outside Israel, are appalled at the Israeli brutality in Palestine (in this case in the West Bank).
Not everything in Israel is evil, but when Israel is destroyed, as it surely will eventually be destroyed, almost all the non-Jewish world will breathe a sigh of relief.
🚨 Emmanuel Macron has condemned Israel’s plans to expand its offensive in Gaza as a “disaster” and a move towards a “never-ending war”
All that Macron could do would be to repress the Jew-Zionist lobby in France itself, but I doubt that he would do that, looking at who put him into power in the first place. See:
Al Jazeera is one of the few outlets I trust as a reliable source. Along with the Beeb, ITV, C4, CNN. I stopped listening to all the Israeli outlets a year ago and any British ones who regurgitate their falsehoods.
Even someone previously sympathetic to Israel and Jew-Zionists is getting —or has gotten— absolutely sick of “them”. I know how she feels (though admittedly I was never much sympathetic to “them” in the first place).
Well, that had occurred to me, looking at the open dissent recently shown by former chiefs of Israel’s intelligence and security orgs.

The rejection of the American president’s peace proposal by Europe and Ukraine, which he might announce after talks with Vladimir Putin, could lead to the cessation of US arms deliveries to Kyiv and the renewal of threats to withdraw the US from NATO, Bloomberg reports. “There is a risk that Trump will offer Europe and Ukraine a deal similar to an ultimatum… Rejection could prompt Trump to halt arms deliveries to Ukraine or renew threats to leave NATO if Europe does not agree. Europe has had more than three years to prepare for this moment, yet it still lacks the military power to support Ukraine on its own,” adds the American news agency.

In the 90s the IRA detonated huge bombs in London. It was a terrorist outrage. The UK responded by killing 100,000s of NI citizens, starving the population, shooting those who sought aid and bombing Belfast flat. They didn't, because war crimes is not an answer to terrorism.
Jew (Israeli) casualties during the Hamas incursion into southern Israel of 2023— about 1,000-1,500, many of which were members of military or security organizations, and many of which were killed in fact by Israeli forces operating a scorched earth policy.
Palestinian Arab casualties in Gaza killed or badly wounded as a result of Israeli/Jewish retaliation and revenge— about 200,000, mostly civilians, mostly women and children, many shot for evil sport by Jewish soldiers, or simply killed to clear a whole urban area. That, plus deliberate starvation, cutting off of water supply, deliberate withholding of medical supplies, bombing and complete destruction of hospitals.
The disproportion alone is staggering.
If what the Israeli Jews are doing in Gaza are not war crimes, then the term is meaningless; same goes for “genocide”.

At last the Russian high command is starting to think truly tactically, meaning in this case obliquely.
It will be recalled that the Iraqi Army flooded large areas at one time, in the 1980s and later, both when fighting Iran and when fighting the “Allied forces” (USA, mainly).
“One key aspect of the astonishing advance of Ukraine’s army in the east —and the astonishing collapse of Russian forces— is the gap in morale. Ukraine’s soldiers are fighting for their country and freedom. Russians are fighting out of fear and for money. https://t.co/TSiWskXYaJ
We tend to forget that, though the southeastern part of Ukraine is a war zone, that does not mean that all areas suffer continuous fighting. Far from it. The Ukraine is about 3x the size of the UK, and nearly 5x the size of England. The southeastern parts known as the Donbass or Don Basin (Donetsk and Lugansk regions) are, together, about half the size of England.

Pound sliding, inflation stoking, and recession likely
Still think that closing down the economy for almost 2 years (because a virus was supposedly killing one out of every thousand people, mostly aged and/or with serious pre-existing health problems), and while doling out “free” money to individuals and companies via “furlough” payments, grants, “loans” etc, was a good policy? Think again.
A delusionary time, but what happens once the funeral of the late Queen has been held?
The death of the late Queen, and the consequent ritual arrangements and spectacles, is occupying the msm in the UK to an almost (?) unprecedented extent.
It may be that the Diana death hysteria of 1997, about which I have heard, and the Silver Jubilee of 1977, were similar; I cannot say, having been out of the UK when those two events occurred. In 1977, I was in Rhodesia, and in 1997 I was in Kazakhstan.
In fact, I only heard of the Diana incident 2-3 days after it happened, when I attended a regular Monday morning meeting at my office in Almaty, the then capital.
The British Embassy opened a book of condolence, and I was told by one of my Embassy contacts that, out of all the ~70 British residents (in the city) of which the Embassy was aware, I was the only one who had not signed (though not because I was hostile to Diana, but because of simple lack of interest).
My non-signing may have also been noted because, about 10 months previously, I had attended by invitation a royal reception at the Ambassador’s official Residence, where I had met and briefly chatted to Prince Charles, as he then was. Also, because I was at the Embassy quite often, at least a couple of times per week.
I have blogged in the past about how, on my return to London a few weeks later, friends told me about the collective psychosis (?) that had descended (on London at least), with pubs full of blubbing drinkers etc.
I am now thinking ahead to the day, or perhaps two or three days after the funeral of the late Queen (next Monday, 19 September 2022). What then?
We as a nation (insofar as Britain still is a nation) face huge economic problems, as well as ingrained social problems. The cloud of illusion all too obvious this week on TV, in the Press etc will blow away, and the country may come down to Earth with a very hard jolt.
The sentiment around the enormous queues going to see the late Queen’s coffin etc is somewhat illusory. The hundreds of thousands of people shuffling toward Westminster, or lining the Mall, are still only about 1% of the whole UK population. The vast majority, almost all in fact, seem to be English/British, i.e. white, and most (that I have seen in photos, on TV etc), are middle-aged or elderly.
This will all look very different in six months’ time.

As many of my blog readers will be aware, I quite often watch the TV quiz show, The Chase. I do well, I would even say very well, on many or indeed most topics, but fall down on pop/rock music, current “celebrities” and, to a lesser extent, sports.
I saw one Chase yesterday, but the show was from years ago. A young black woman contestant from Birmingham, who knew almost nothing on any topic. Her present activity (at time of recording)? Law student. Her goal? To become a barrister…
There is no doubt in my mind that the Bar has become a kind of dustbin now. That is particularly true of what are often regarded as the lower levels of Bar work, meaning the criminal law Bar and the family law Bar.
Like so many areas of English/British life, the Bar is really running on empty or, to put it another way, living off its reputation from earlier times.
Other areas and institutions “running on empty” in that way? The Monarchy, the armed forces, the Church of England, SIS/MI6 (and probably MI5 too), the BBC and other msm, Parliament, the electoral system, the Conservative Party, the Labour Party, universities (including, and perhaps particularly, Oxford and Cambridge, with their higher expectation), the whole system of awarding of “degrees”, the Foreign Office, the police force etc.
The outward forms are there but devoid, or almost devoid, of content.
There is far less intellectual curiosity generally in 2022 as compared to, say, 1962, 1972, or even 1992. It is a societal shift; the world of the student “snowflakes” is just a part of that.
Repression of free speech comes from a number of sources, though the worst is the Jew-Zionist element. Others? The Muslim/Islamist element is one other, though relatively minor except where the speech or other expression directly impinges on the religious sensibilities of the Muslims. The “antifa” element (largely though not entirely tied-in with the Jew-Zionists) is another, as is the State itself, via its control organs (police, security orgs etc).
Beyond that, there is the almost hysterical perceived need by many, especially the young, for a sense of comfortable and unchallenging mental or intellectual security. The same impulse is behind the ever-inflating exam —including degree— awards. The “everyone gets a First” culture.
“Blacks with everything”
Arnold Wesker, the Jewish playwright, wrote a play (filmed for TV a couple of times) called Chips with Everything, but in the UK, in TV ads, we now have “blacks with everything”. Every ad on TV, bar a few, must have, it seems, a black man or woman, regardless of context. Often, a black man with white woman in a quasi-marital set-up, and with mixed-race children.
Likewise, every “British” TV drama (even one set in the Tudor era, the Viking era etc) has to include blacks, sometimes even as historical characters who were unassailably white European, such as Anne Boleyn. I am told that the apparently popular drama Bridgerton has blacks as well: see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridgerton#Historical_accuracy.
The makers usually weasel out of justified criticism by saying that such programmes are fictional, not meant to be accurate historically etc.
but the intensification of the propaganda campaign has surprised me in its concentration.
For example, this evening, I saw an ad break with a number of ads. Only one, showing a white pensioner enjoying a hearing aid, did not have blacks in it. Some of the others were really ludicrous, such as the ad featuring a black woman as a dairy farmer in England! Are there any such? I do not rule out the remote possibility that one exists somewhere, amid the thousands of white dairy farmers.
Another ad I saw, advertising Cornetto ice-cream, had what seemed to be a basically white family sitting on and around a sofa, with a black man tacked on to one end (like a bookend).
As I have said before, that kind of propaganda is now inescapable, and is not aimed at me (aged 65), not aimed at even 30-somethings; no, it is really aimed at children, or anyway those under 20. People whose critical faculties are as yet not fully developed.
The aim is to normalize the mixed-race society. It is all part of the Coudenhove-Kalergi propaganda campaign, “The Great Replacement”, “The Great Reset” etc.
The international conspiracy is playing a long game, but one the urgency of which has quickened now that we are in 2022, the most significant year since 1989.
It's been irritating throughout but particularly now, after everything, to see people announce – however casually – that they've 'got Covid'. Both sides do this. Please stop it.

Ha. Yes. Some of the prominent Jews on Twitter announce from time to time that they “have Covid” and even “have Covid again“. Some only say so because of an inconclusive test, and without even the mildest symptoms. Pathetic.
Placing healthy citizens under house arrest? Fine. Driving people insane with fear? Love it. Masking toddlers? That's my jam. Threatening and coercing millions into taking a dangerous drug? No biggie.

Kremenchuk sits between Dnipro and Kiev, on the river Dnieper. The attack, certainly not random, is a clear sign, and perhaps a warning to Ukrainian civilians, that Russian forces are going to move as I predicted on the blog over the past month or so, i.e. northwards from the Sea of Azov coastal zone, following the river, and (once the Donbass and the Kharkov area are secured) northwest and west respectively from those areas, until most of Ukraine east of the Dnieper is secured and then occupied.
