Well, once again a victory over political journalist John Rentoul. I scored 7/10 as against his 4/10. I did not know the answers to questions 2, 4, and 5, though had I just thought for a moment I would have worked out no. 2 as well.
Well worth reading, especially by any MPs that are public-spirited, and not focussed totally on the Ukraine situation or their own selfish ambitions.

Without the capture of Kiev, and installation of a pro-Russian government, Russia has not succeeded in its invasion.
Not yet, anyway.
Even if the east and south of the country are both taken and held, without Kiev there is no victory, bitter or otherwise.

A brave lady. The present “German” state is a disguised NWO/ZOG police state.
The NWO/ZOG “German” state cannot allow a lady of 93 to speak favourably of the German Reich of 1933-1945 because she was there, and so speaks from experience. That is why Ursula Haverbeck is constantly persecuted. Her truth is something the present German regime wants to stifle.
President @JoeBiden when Bush, Blair and @BarackObama invaded Iraq and Libya, you never condemned thier actions. Israel is doing the same to Palestine and you support them. Now Putin has done the same to Ukraine and you call him a war criminal? WHY AND HOW?
even though I happen to agree with supporting ukraine, its shocking to see ALL the liberal news outlets shift from culture war bullshit to nonstop war propaganda in an instant

Not very literate but, once deciphered, “Rachel’s” tweet is more or less my view, though I am far more sceptical about the competence of the Russian General Staff and Russian intelligence orgs, and far less willing to accept the brutal way in which this whole invasion is now being carried out, in terms of civilian harm done.

Old v. young, Ukrainian v. Russian, nostalgia for socialism v. misty optimism about finance-capitalism. Sounds like a very limited foreshadowing of Rudolf Steiner’s “War of All against All” prophecy.
⚡️ Zelensky: If Ukraine doesn't receive planes, Russia could threaten neighbors.
President Volodymyr Zelensky, in a video conference with Polish President Andrzej Duda, stated that he was disappointed that Ukraine had not received Polish MiG-29 jets.

Zelensky is trying to browbeat NATO into winning this war for him, in effect. Also, his assertion that Russia somehow menaces the eastern states of Europe is not very credible: after all, the whole world has seen how Russia has struggled to beat down shambolic and corrupt Ukraine, and has still not managed to do that.

I blogged recently about how I once accompanied the then Ukrainian Ambassador to the UK, Mr. Komissarenko, to the main UK “bio-lab”, at Porton Down, Wiltshire; about 27 years ago, though.
It's not a war between Russia and Ukraine. It's a war between NATO and Russia, with Ukraine being used as a pawn, and Ukrainians paying the price of NATO expansion and antagonism.
Notwithstanding the very sluggish Russian invasion of Ukraine, are we really expected to believe that the British Army could perform adequately now?
Zelensky
A profile in the Italian edition of Vanity Fair magazine (in an imperfect translation):
“WHO IS THE REAL ZELENSKY?“
“Who really is the Ukrainian comedian who became the beniamino of the western press and decanted as a hero on the covers of our weekly and in our News?
Who is the character that showed up in military uniform last Saturday in Florence between the applause and ovation of the PD armed Pacificist Square?
We know that he was born in 1978 from a family of Jewish origin and that his first language is not Ukrainian, but Russian.
He chooses his career as an actor and a comedian, founded the Kvartal 95 Studio and produced the Telenovela “Sluha Narodu” (Servant of the People) in which Zelensky himself plays any man who is tired of the political corruption that rages in Ukraine, see you One unexpectedly elected president.
It seems that Igor Kolomoyskyi – powerful businessman with the triple Ukrainian, Cypriot and Israeli passport, US trustee and Ukraine’s main oligarch – watching the popular telenovela comes the magnificent idea of turning fiction into a king height and making comedian Zelenzky play the part of the President not only in video but also in reality.
Immediately after Zelensky announces the foundation of a party that has the same name as the popular telenovela: “Servant of the People” and, at the peak of its popular television, announces its candidacy for the presidential elections of the year s occasionally.
From then on, its company, Kvartal 95, will register an abnormal flow of funding, run through off-shore based tax havens, for a sum of $40 million.
Zelensky’s main subsidizer of the campaign is really the [Jew] oligarch Kolomoyskyi, owner of PrivatBank, the largest bank in Ukraine, involved in several cases of fraudulent banking and illegal investments.
Igor Kolomoysky was one of the main sponsors of some of the neo-Nazis and ultra-nationalist paramilitary groups that in 2014 produced the coup that overturned President Janukovic’s legitimate government by initiating 8 years of instability and civil war in the region.
In April 2019 Zelensky newly elected President immediately provides to distribute government duties to the members of his company, the Kvartal 95.
Ivan Bakanov, already CEO of the company, becomes the head of the Secret Services, while Vice Director Serhiy Shefir becomes the official spokesman for the president.
Oligarch Igor Kolomoysky, the godfather and sponsor of Zelensky, has strong economic interests on the Donbass, which is why his private army of Neo-Nazist organizations, partly framed in the Ukrainian Army, has been eradicated about 16 since 2015 a thousand russophones to silence from the international community.
This is also the reason why Zelensky at the peace negotiations rejects Russian requests for recognition of the Donbass People’s Republics and is willing to continue the war by any means, trying by all means to involve NATO and extend it to the rest of Europe.
According to what appeared in the Pandora Papers and reported by “The Guardian” of October 3, 2021, Zelensky holds shares of three off-shore companies, has ties with several oligarchs from which he receives illegal funding and billionaires in revenue and is c straight wrapped around guns and money ai Neo-Nazis.
In the light of this and its declared interest in joining Ukraine to NATO, placing American missile bases on the borders of Russia, invoking the no-fly zone and the use of an atomic bomb, one is asked if the Ukrainian president is truly the hero that the European media is representing.
We wonder if the politicians and western media really realize what kind of business and corruption are hiding behind this shameless character and how much they are risking us to hide the war delusions of this unbalanced affair. “
[from Vanity Fair magazine]
The Ukrainian “neo-Nazis”, of course, the few genuine ones, are just being played, as are most of the others in this rather serious game.
Incidentally, take a look at the “usual suspects” on Twitter— the pro-Israel tweeters are all tweeting heavily about Ukraine, and every single one of the bastards is pro-Zelensky…
“Usual suspects“? The ones that were/are all pro-facemask nonsense, pro “Covid” “vaccination”, pro-“lockdown” shutdown, anti-Corbyn etc…

Without commenting on the reported case specifically, it seems clear to me that the police, CPS, and maybe judges too, are getting pretty tired of the “CAA” Israel zealots desperately seeking to find “antisemitism” everywhere (and trying to pretend that it is a serious “problem”).
The small but well-funded “Campaign Against Antisemitism” is a tiny group of obsessives, stalkers,and snoops. A few dozen Jews, out of about 300,000 Jews in the UK.
I sense, though it is only my impression, that the police, CPS, many MPs, even the largely (((controlled))) mass media are getting pretty tired of this constant Jewish-Zionist and/or pro-Israel whining, the attempts to bully people, the contrived and/or false accusations against people etc.
In fact, I notice that quite a few of the trolls and plotters who have targeted me over the years are, shall we say, “not doing so well” these days. “The stars in their courses fight on the side of the just” [ancient Chinese proverb].
[“Get down there, where you wanted to send me, you unclean spirit!“]
Incidentally, that CAA “report” on the Nicholas Nelson case portentously refers to “a new legal device” developed by them to unmask anonymous trolls etc. In fact, their “new legal device” is a Norwich Pharmacal order [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwich_Pharmacal_order], the first of which was granted in 1974! In fact, I remember learning about them when I was a Bar student in 1987-88. The development of such orders had nothing to do with the CAA, which was only established in 2014, forty years later…
The only “new” thing (actually, not so new anyway) is that the CAA has used that type of court order to unmask an “anonymous” Internet “troll”. I myself thought, but some years ago, of doing the same, to unmask and locate a few of the would-be “anonymous” (pseudonymous) Jew-Zionist and “antifa” trolls who pollute Twitter; sadly, to date, I have no money with which to undertake such a ratissage, not as yet, anyway.
In fact, even the use of such a court order in relation to Internet activity is not new, having been used against or in relation to Facebook and Google as long ago as 2008 (see, e.g. that Wikipedia article).
Looks as though a certain self-promoting and Israel-resident lawyer may have been been telling “porkies” once more,…
So (((typical)), such self-promotion (and such falsehood, as well).
We hear that Ukraine and, indeed, Russia, are corrupt. Very true. So is, pretty much, all of Africa and South America, and much of Asia. How though, can we say anything about those places, when the UK has become as, if not more, corrupt over the past few decades?
Incidentally, Michelle Mone, instant “baroness”, is known for nothing but self-promotion and for having started a lingerie company that crashed in the end, but by that time she had managed to promote herself as a “self-made” “entrepreneur” or entrepreneuse.
A dishonest woman, in my opinion, who is, again in my opinion, little better than a fraudster. Despite now being married to a billionaire, she still wants to grab hundreds of millions, regardless of ethics.
If the UK ever has a real revolution, criminals like her will be the trigger.
Part-Jew “Conservative” David Cameron-Levita made her an instant “baroness”. Pathetic.
So, at a time of national crisis, a Tory peer Michelle Mone, used it as an opportunity to make £76,000,000 in profit from tax payers, selling mostly useless PPE to the government. This woman sits in the Lords. Utterly shameless. #ToryCorruption

There are concerns about some areas that are affected by the fighting and highly reliant on aid, such as Kharkiv and Sumy. Many places don't have food for more than 3-4 days. There are fears that supply chains could be disrupted if cities are besieged or shelled, like Mariupol pic.twitter.com/YoYkYX29oF
Both sides in what is now the war in Ukraine are running short of supplies, we read. Perhaps. The Russian forces can be resupplied overall, though there may be greater shortages in some specific geographical areas, but the Ukrainians (civilians and fighters) in the cities surrounded cannot be resupplied. Kiev itself is not completely surrounded, as yet.
Ammunition may be a bigger issue for the Ukrainian side than for the Russians. In any case, the weapons of most importance for the Ukrainian side are not small arms, but those donated free of charge by, mainly, the USA and UK— anti-tank and ground-to-air systems, able to be deployed by individuals or small groups. Without those weapons, Russia would by now be far more ahead in achieving its immediate tactical objectives.
Having said that, the civilians and soldiers in the besieged cities of the south and east cannot survive for long without food. Those cities will probably fall quite soon. When they do, huge Russian forces will move from the south and from the east towards Kiev.
I note that Zelensky is again calling for talks with Russia. He knows that he cannot win, as such, and so wants to stabilize the situation (eg by extended ceasefire, and open corridors) before cities now surrounded and under attack surrender or are destroyed.
Russia is going to win this war, in the short to medium term, even if most of its territorial gains are turned into scorched urban and rural wastelands. What happens further down the line is an open question.
This is not a war between very different nations and peoples. It is somewhere between that kind of war and a civil war. In the past, during the Russian Civil War (1917-1922), Ukraine was a battlefield between several contending forces: Bolsheviks, White Guards (pro-Tsarist anti-Bolsheviks), Ukrainian nationalists, and German forces, among others: see [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ukrainian_People%27s_Republic].

Preliminary note: good to see that one of the worst Jew-Zionist and/or pro-Israel troll accounts on Twitter, “@GnasherJew”, has been suspended (again). Last time, the usual online “claque” of Jews put up a huge scream, much noisy protest (as usual— absolutely typical), and the account was reinstated. Let us hope that this time the ban will be permanent.
The activities of Jew-Zionists such as “GnasherJew” are the major reason why Twitter, and the comment-Internet generally, has gradually become rather dull; the more interesting Twitter accounts, including my own, and those of David Icke, Katie Hopkins, Alison Chabloz, Patriotic Alternative, and many many others, have been removed. It would be good to see at least some redress, even if not the nemesis that certain malicious Jew-Zionist trolls deserve.

He was, more recently, director of exactly such a laboratory in Ukraine. Even Wikipedia notes that fact.

As I have been blogging recently, the Russians are still, though very gradually, “winning” in Ukraine, appalling though the human cost is on both sides.
If you were only to see the usual BBC/Sky (etc) propaganda “news”, you might imagine that the Russian forces are “losing” this small-ish and very unpleasant war. However, the reality is that, albeit at huge cost in every way, Russian forces still just about hold the initiative.
In brief, the Russians have a large air force, only part of which is presently engaged in Ukraine; the Kiev regime now has no air force left. The Russians have a large navy, part of which (including what is or used to be called the Black Sea Fleet) is now blockading the Black Sea coast and the coast of the Sea of Azov, and is executing a blockade of the third-largest city in Ukraine, Odessa; the Kiev regime has no fleet. The Russian Army is huge, is only partly in the Ukraine-area theatre, and has thousands of tanks and other armoured vehicles; the Ukrainian Army consists of mostly outdated armour, and a mass of infantry.
The Ukrainian forces can use the donated Western weaponry (anti-tank weapons, ground-to-air infantry missiles) to inflict damage on Russian tanks and planes, but Russian forces also have such weapons, and have reportedly destroyed most of the Turkish-made drones operated by the Ukrainian forces.
We see no large-scale counter-offensives by the Ukrainian forces. Probably they are short of fuel and ammunition. There was no attack at all, it seems, on the 40-mile-long convoy north of Kiev. Had the Kiev regime a functioning air force, there would have been an attack.
As previously blogged, the Ukrainian strategy seems to be to turn major and some other cities into fortresses, stop the Russians from storming them, and at the same time equip as many soldiers as possible with the donated Western hardware.
I have seen no information as to where the bulk of Ukrainian forces are located. I presume, in Kiev, in the south-eastern region, and also in the so-far not invaded west of the country.
As I have written previously, the Russians are waging war in an almost mediaeval way on the Ukrainian-held cities: encirclement, bombardment, starvation. Eventually, unless those cities are relieved from without, which seems very unlikely, they will fall. God only knows what will by then be the condition of the civilians forced to endure the sieges.
Once Russian forces have encircled the main cities, and thus trapped not only the civilians but also Ukrainian military forces, they can roam relatively freely throughout at least the east and south of Ukraine.
Kiev must remain, psychologically, the main target for the Russians. If they have sufficient force to contain the other major cities of the east and south, surplus forces can be committed to Kiev, with the idea of either tightening the siege, or (later) storming the capital.
We should not forget the size of the country. Krivoy Rog or Kryvyi Rih is well over 200 miles south/southeast from Kiev, and Krivoy Rog is nowhere near taken, or even approached as yet. Kharkov is a similar distance from Kiev, to the east.
Usually, commanders would be concerned about lateral attacks on such long lines of approach, but I doubt whether the Ukrainian Army has the overall wherewithal for such attacks, except on the small and local scale.
Putin is not going to back down. While I doubt that he will use chemical or biological weapons (as claimed by the msm), he may eventually use even more destructive conventional methods and weapons than seen in use so far.
The West is “helping” the Kiev regime by supplying advanced weaponry, but not the weaponry that might actually make a difference to the end result— planes, tanks, heavy artillery etc. The present ordnance being supplied only prolongs the agony of the civilian population, by prolonging the war.
It seems very much at present as though the Russian (expected, by me at least) “victory” over the Kiev regime will echo that of Rome over Carthage. I think that it was Tacitus who remarked, about the fall of, and levelling of, Carthage, that “they created a desert, and called it peace“…

It is profoundly wrong and immoral to continue sending "lethal aid" to #Ukraine and to continue cheerleading for a war that Ukraine cannot win. It means that thousands of people will needlessly lose their lives and thousands more will be horribly injured.#GivePeaceAChance
On the contrary. The Ukraine military were shelling their own people in Donetsk and Luhansk following the coup that overthrew Yanukovych in 2014. They've killed 14,000 people in that time and injured 50,000 others. I want to see peace and avoid unnecessary loss of life.
As in past situations (Iraq, Libya), the UK public is getting only a one-sided picture from its corrupt and wrongheaded msm. The same is probably true of USA etc.
It seems that, with support from several EU member-states, Ukraine is now looked upon favourably in its desire to join the EU. What incredible nonsense.
In the past, EU membership was, officially at least, only granted to states exhibiting behaviour and status compatible with EU membership. According to the “Copenhagen Criteria” [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copenhagen_criteria], a state wishing to join the EU must have “the institutions to preserve democratic governance and human rights,…a functioning market economy, and accept the obligations and intent of the EU [including, in principle, the Euro]” [Wikipedia].
The EU rules, particularly re. economy, tax etc, were bent and effectively broken in order to allow some present members to join, most obviously Greece.
Now look at Ukraine. First of all, Ukraine may not even exist as a state in its present form for much longer. Its borders are now uncertain. A quarter of its territory is under Russian occupation or threat of occupation, and that might soon be a third, a half, or even the whole of the country.
Secondly, from the economic point of view, Ukraine scarcely has a functioning economy at all any more, certainly in about a third of the country. As for the currency, while the hryvnia is currently valued at about 3 cents (European), and while that is historically quite high, its future must be regarded as uncertain.
Rule of law? Civil rights? The Zelensky regime has just “suspended” no fewer than 11 political parties, and a member of the Kiev government’s own peace-negotiation team has recently been shot in the head by Ukrainian security for having allegedly been an agent of Russia.
Ukraine has had corrupt and shambolic governments for 31 years now. The Kiev regime can only fight Russian forces at all by reason of the arms and ammunition being funnelled into Ukraine by the US, UK, and other, mostly NATO, states.
If Russia decides to play real hardball, and cuts off gas to the EU, the EU states may all face political upheaval. The EU may even collapse. Welcoming a fake state or failed state like Ukraine into candidate or actual membership may just be enough to do it.
“Diversity” nonsense
Happened to see a few minutes of ITV News. A piece about a drama called “Bridgerton“; have never watched any. American, but set in Regency London.
ITV News, of course, “celebrated” the “diversity” (i.e. white people, who actually existed historically —unlike say Othello— being played by black/brown theatricals).
The propaganda aspect is not really aimed at adults (despite their probably comprising the bulk of the audience), but at those too young to know that shows of this sort are totally ahistorical or, to put it more bluntly, lying rubbish.
A more-accurate (though with some artistic licence) version of Regency London:

Increasingly, in looking at blog posts both recent and old, I notice blank spaces where embedded tweets or YouTube videos used to be. Censorship is increasing, and the Jewish-Zionist element is behind most of it, yet we still see, in the msm, how “free” we are to express ourselves compared to people in, say, Russia. Really? Soon there will be no difference at all.
To look at it another way, it seems clear that the Ukrainian civilians are not much in fear of the Russian Army, as such. You could not imagine such a protest happening (under any of the combatants) in, say, Syria, or Afghanistan, or even in the Balkans during the 1990s civil war.
Judging purely from that one view of the centre of the town, the destruction reported upon seems to have been limited.

I was also struck by the following photograph from 1943, showing such a vehicle (perhaps the same individual vehicle) in Skanderbeg Square, the central point of Tirana, the capital of Albania:
[Skanderbeg Square, Tirana, 1943]
[same view, same date, but from a slightly wider perspective]
Below, a view from 1963:

…and an aerial view taken in some more recent year:

In fact, that square was only constructed or laid out in 1917, by some Austrians. A 1923 postcard view of Tirana shows a small town (about 10,000 inhabitants)

At time of writing, it is uncertain whether the great cities of Russia, Europe, and North America will still exist in a year’s time, or in ten years’ time. All one can say is that humanity will weather the storm and, if need be, eventually rebuild.
As to Albania, I myself have only seen it from outside, and only twice: once in the mid-1980s, across the narrow strait from North-East Corfu; the second time in 2001, while driving right on the border, in the mountains of Northern Greece.

Look at Twitter; all the Zionist Jews that I have seen on there are in favour of “confronting” Russia, and many seem quite sanguine about the possibility of nuclear war. Likewise, they all supported the attacks on Libya, Iraq and the rest. Also, needless to say, the brutal attacks on Gaza, arguably the number one recent example of advanced weaponry used on a completely defenceless civilian population.
Most of the (((cheerleaders))) for attacks on Gaza and elsewhere do not even live in Israel but in London, New York, Los Angeles etc.
Now, suddenly, they pose as great humanitarians.
The early adopters of the third dip are on a sticky wicket about now. There immune systems are pretty much shot to pieces without another top up of the elixir 😬
As previously said, hard to believe that anyone really takes their views from that Tom Harwood person. If he were more important, I suppose he could be called “controlled opposition”.
I myself have never watched GB News, not even once. I see that the average viewing figure is somewhere between 10,000 and 30,000 people; rock-bottom in TV ratings terms.
I have already blogged about my 1994 or 1995 (I think 1994) trip to the UK biological research station at Porton Down, Wiltshire, in company with the then Ukrainian Ambassador, Mr. Komissarenko (a trained biochemist).
Exactly, or at least the UK never left the NWO/ZOG matrix. The EU is part of it, the USA is part of it. The UK formally left the EU, but is tied into it and the NWO in many ways, and also tied to “American” (NWO/ZOG) power.
#OpenBordersForIsrael White European are the ones with below replacement rate, overworked in debt and can’t offset to start a family. Ethnic groups you mention doing just fine demographically, you should focus on groups that are actually dying out.
The proportion of white Northern Europeans in the world is still dropping fast. Something has to come to redress the balance and the damage. Only the European can give the world a decent future.
Incidentally, Russia is part of that, in the wider sense. Just as the Northern Europeans took in the essence of the Graeco-Latin culture, and later built their own upon that, the Slavs have been and are taking in our Anglo-Saxon/Germanic culture, and will eventually create a completely distinct higher culture of their own. That applies to Russia especially.

How many people got de-platformed for saying this 2 years ago??
Unfortunately, the “Covid is the new Black Death” idea, pushed by two years of relentless propaganda, has embedded itself in the thinking of part, perhaps a majority until recently, of the UK population; the same elsewhere. In fact, to unravel the nonsense is even more difficult than cutting through the “holocaust” “gas chambers” narrative —which many still believe as gospel— because of the apparent complexity of statistics, clinical evidence etc surrounding the basic core of the “Covid” narrative.
I happened to be in the local Waitrose about 2 days ago, and there were at least two people I saw still wearing facemasks! Admittedly, that was only a small fraction of all those in the store.

Biological Threat Reduction Program – U.S. Embassy in Ukraine
This network of bio-labs includes facilities in Odessa, Vinnytsia, Uzhgorod, Lviv, Kiev, Kherson, Ternopil, Crimea, Luhansk and two suspect facilities in Kharkiv and Mykolaiv. https://t.co/6aUim4VhKI
When I was still a practising barrister in London, I was trying, around 1995, to get funding and support for an EU-award-winning project to make fuel out of biomass (I called it “gold out of straw”). I approached, to that end, two embassies, the Ukrainian and the Cuban.
Both Ukraine and Cuba had large amounts of biomass normally burned or left to rot, the unwanted surplus from agriculture (in the case of Cuba, mostly sugar-cane, in the case of Ukraine from grain crops, mostly wheat). Both countries needed fuel. Also, both countries were replete with scientifically and technically-trained people.
The Cuban Embassy ignored my letter, i.e. were useless bastards who deserved to wither on the vine (as they have done since); the Ukrainian Embassy was more interested. I was invited to meet, at first briefly, the then Ambassador, at the Embassy, which was then in Notting Hill (somewhere in the Holland Park area now).
The Ambassador, a Mr. Komissarenko, who now has his own Wikipedia page [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Serhiy_Komisarenko] turned out, by lucky chance, to be a biochemist by training. He was a rather charismatic character (a former Deputy Prime Minister, who even had Presidential aspirations), and was very interested in visiting the British biological research (and “germ warfare”) laboratories at Porton Down, Wiltshire, which (partly-privatized) was the location of the lab and offices of the “gold out of straw” project.
A week or so later, I travelled with the Ambassador, his Scientific Attache, and a driver, to Porton Down. His driver, in a Lexus limousine, made the most of diplomatic immunity, running red lights from Notting Hill to outer London, then cruising at top speed down the A303. I thought that we must be going below the speed limit, so smooth and quiet was the ride, until I looked at the speedo— over 130 mph. We made Porton Down, on Salisbury Plain, a distance of about 90 miles, in about 40 minutes. Lexus make good cars.
After an initial hiccup at the sentry post, when the Ambassador, of all people, was not on the guards’ list, we entered the huge area, and the Ambassador was introduced to the main scientist on the Project, an elderly, gruff —and in fact hard to talk to— North Country boffin, Professor Someone-or-other, and the rest.
Anyway, an interesting day all in all, with a late pub lunch after we were checked out, and animated discussion between the Ukrainian and British or British-Iranian sides (one scientist, whom, with his brother and mother, I in fact knew personally, was one of a family that had fled Iran in the 1970s, the Ayatollahs’ regime having hanged the head of the family).
Porton Down is in a heavily military area. We were just starting to head back to London, down some country lane, when a British Army patrol, in full combat gear and camouflage cream, encountered us. The soldiers immediately went down on one knee. The officer then waved us on.
In the end, the project was at too early a stage for the Ukrainians. They wanted something more or less ready to begin producing on an industrial scale, so nothing came of it (and I missed out on what might have been a big fee). Still, interesting.
I saw some time ago from Wikipedia that Komissarenko was, perhaps still is, head of a biochemical institute in Ukraine. Ukraine seems to have a number of such institutes and laboratories. I wonder what they all do.
This is not confined to the US or UK, though they are they are most heavily affected (with, possibly, Australasia). It is a general trend in the dying West. Conformism, and pseudo-“liberal” illiberalism.
You cannot “debate” such creatures (even if you were so inclined). The only thing to do is eliminate them.

Can Ukraine now be called a functioning state at all? Seems to be behaving just like some kind of bandit regime…
The Defence Secretary says "lethal and non-lethal aid" will continue to be provided to #Ukraine.@BWallaceMP has stressed the importance of the UK-led Joint Expeditionary Force (JEF).
The Second World War was triggered when Germany invaded the territory of Poland (as did the Soviet Union), Britain and France having given Poland worthless guarantees that would be activated upon such invasion.
Britain and France could not save Poland from invasion, or be in any way involved in the matter, but those “guarantees” still meant that a world war was triggered.
In fact, without going into tiresome detail, the German invasion was partly the result of 20 years of Polish provocations.
Now we see, once again, Poland provoking matters, this time by having decided to supply Ukraine with fighter aircraft.
Many of Ukraine’s airfields are out of commission by reason of Russian attack. Will such aircraft now take off from and later land in Poland, having attacked Russian forces? What happens if Russian forces attack those bases in Poland? Poland is a NATO member now. Will NATO then take up arms against Russia?
This whole situation is in danger of sliding toward world war. Look at the deadheads in control in the UK, USA etc. I do not necessarily exclude Russia, not after this botched invasion that has trashed Russia’s reputation worldwide. The GRU and Russian Army need a profound reorganization.
Hard to know what to make of the rumours that US Navy Seals and/or Delta Force are about to take the Jew Zelensky to safety in Poland, Lithuania, or elsewhere. Maybe. Certainly Zelensky is key. Were he to be captured or killed, the Russians would probably be able to take and hold Kiev more easily.

Former BBC journalist John Sweeney [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Sweeney_(journalist)] thinks that TV presenter Neil Oliver “should be in the Tower” [of London] as (implied) a traitor, merely for questioning the Western narrative and whipped-up NWO/ZOG msm hysteria about Ukraine.
Oliver, tweets Sweeney, supports “Russian fascism” (as against, presumably, the “fascism” of those such as Sweeney, who would label anyone with a differing view “traitors”, and lock them up as such).
We have seen recently a whole tide of such hysterical nonsense, most egregiously from part-Jew MP Tom Tugendhat, who actually said, in the House of Commons at that, that those MPs not wanting to get the UK involved in the Ukraine conflict were guilty of “treason“.
Tugendhat is not only completely wrong in the legal sense, but in the more general sense as well. The UK is not at war with Russia, and indeed is not at all allied to the corrupt and shambolic Ukraine regime based in Kiev.
In fact, as shown below, that Sweeney character does seem rather keen on censorship, certainly for a journalist:
Putin's war is in the balance. The Ukrainians have done brilliantly so far – but can they stand up to the bully for ever?#KyivDiary, Putin's war, Day 5. I'm making a podcast, Taking On Putin. He won't like it. If you can, bung me a bob or two… https://t.co/r6lSjA7zVypic.twitter.com/xabOlEIlUX
Sweeney has a point about the morale of the two sides. It is clear that the Russian troops are reluctant invaders. That reluctance may go right to the top of the Russian Army. None dare call it sabotage?
As for the quiet streets of Kiev just reported upon, it is said that hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians have fled overseas, which may mean that literally millions have fled from Kiev and other near-frontline areas of the country to Western Ukraine, and some then to neighbouring states. Kiev’s 3 million population may now already be closer to 2 million, or even 1 million. Hard to say.
I have seen the main points made yesterday by the Ukrainian envoy to the UN in New York. I may be wrong, but the supposed texts or conversation he read out, messages between a young Russian soldier (later killed, said the diplomat) and his mother, seemed to me to be contrived, at least in part.
I may be wrong, but there was something in those supposed messages that reminded me of the lying testimony of the daughter of a Kuwaiti diplomat in 1990. She claimed that Iraqi soldiers had killed small children in a hospital. I was in New York at the time, and recall the effect that that pack of lies had on many people (the falsity of the testimony was not exposed immediately, by which time the lies had done their job, of course).
A years-old photo of two children saluting Ukrainian soldiers is circulating on social media, with some users falsely suggesting that it is from Russia's ongoing invasion. But the picture was shared by Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense in 2016. https://t.co/wrLgTT1B5c
“The 13 Ukrainian border guards who were feared dead after they told the Russian military to ‘go f*** yourself’ over the radio as they defended a small island in the Black Sea are actually alive and being held as prisoners of war, the Ukrainian Navy has since confirmed.” [Daily Mail]
More lies exposed.
“In war, truth is the first casualty“…
Interesting graphic
The effect of the Ukraine situation has been to push up oil and gas prices. Already, in the UK, the retail price of petrol (gasoline) is about 50% higher than it was a year ago. I have seen figures suggesting that domestic gas prices in 2023 may be double from where they are now.
This is not mainly the “fault” of Putin, and in fact may be in part the result of misapplied “green” policies in the UK and elsewhere.
On the wider front, it is clear that NWO/ZOG is getting the population(s) of Europe gradually accustomed to lower living standards. Causation can be blamed on Russia, “Covid”, “climate change” etc, as required.

The American public, in particular, will always be gung-ho at the prospect of war until they themselves suffer its full consequences. That has never happened to them, certainly not in the past 150 years. Look, though, at how scalded they were when the 2001 New York attack occurred.
Russian economy
The Russian consumer economy has been hit hard by the economic warfare now waged by the West. Having said that, at one time Russia, or at least the Soviet Union, had no consumer economy to speak of, yet not only trampled half of Europe underfoot but built atomic weapons and a space programme. I speak of the times of Stalin and Khrushchev.
Russia is still, I read, receiving USD $1 billion a day from hydrocarbon sales. In hard currency, not roubles. It is said that the war in Ukraine is costing USD $15 billion a day, but I wonder how true that is, bearing in mind that the armed forces would still be costing money even in their home bases; and the weapons used are in existence already.
Russia is 72x the size of the UK, has many different climates, has a large but not densely-packed population of ~145 millions, and the ability to live indefinitely, if necessary, entirely closed-off from the outside world.

I'm from Poland where many cities, towns and historic buildings were flattened in WW2, we reconstructed all of them in the space of a few years. Look at Gdańsk in Poland or the old town in Warsaw. Hang in there they won't get away with this!
The second tweeter is correct in saying that the Old Square and Cathedral area of Warsaw was reconstructed meticulously after the Second World War (I was there on a number of occasions in 1988 and 1989), but of course quite wrong in mentioning Gdansk (former Danzig), which was never a Polish city before 1945. It was a German city from at least the Middle Ages through to 1945.
The Teutonic Knights founded the city around 1300, though there was a small settlement or town there previously, occupied at times by Germans, Danes, and Polish tribespeople.
Subsequently, it was a Germanic city, though at times under the rule or patronage (before the 18thC) of the then Kingdom of Poland.
After 1945, almost all Germans were expelled, and the name changed to Gdansk. The postwar “reconstruction” deliberately diluted the Germanic history of the city (even Wikipedia admits that much).
Well, if the British Government was willing to declare world war in 1939 over a worthless “guarantee” to Poland, why not declare another in 2022 because Russia has “invaded” Ukraine (which two countries were under joint rule from earliest times until 1991, except for very brief periods such as 1942-44)?
The only personal benefit I would get were the UK to be burnt to a crisp by nuclear war would be that most of (((those))) who hate me would be annihilated. Only thing is, I would probably follow them a few minutes later.
On balance…I should prefer if the misgovernment of these islands managed to avoid a nuclear war with Russia, especially one in support of the Ukraine’s useless, corrupt, shambolic and Jewish-led regime.
Hard to accept, even in our decadent and increasingly-stupid country, that the agenda is being driven by idiots such as Piers Morgan, and that such ridiculous pseudo-macho posturing and opining might influence the UK government onto a path which could destroy the British people, what’s left of them.
I believe that a woman once asked that great genius, Rudolf Steiner [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rudolf_Steiner] whether she might reincarnate with him at the end of the 20th century (Steiner died in 1925).

Presumably that (?) prediction meant 2000 or so plus (?) 20+ years. So…about 2022? Worrying…
I never believed that the Cold War would become a hot one, meaning a nuclear one. It would be more than ironic if NATO (NWO/ZOG), having gone through the Cold War and out the other side, sparked a nuclear war with a post-Soviet Russia that poses no threat at all to Western Europe or North America.

As previously blogged, the aim in the medium-term is to get as many people as possible microchipped, probably on the arm or wrist, and get them using that system for all everyday uses: NHS, shopping, travel. Those refusing will be gradually marginalized and, ultimately, probably, detained indefinitely.
Only extreme resistance now, or soon, will prevent this in Western and Central Europe, North America, Australasia, and elsewhere.
As a control mechanism, “the virus” has done most of its job. The majority of the (eg) British population have been proven to be sheep, easily corralled and controlled; in effect, brainwashed. The facemask nonsense was key in doing that.
Of course, a properly-run society would properly punish the likes of Professor Ferguson (or, indeed, laugh at him from the start, and certainly not take him seriously).
Stray thoughts about the increasingly acrid Ukraine situation
Had the Russian forces mounted a properly-planned Blitzkrieg from the start, and thus achieved their main strategic objectives within days, toppling the Jew-Zionist Kiev regime and installing a puppet government de facto over the Kiev region, over that part of Ukraine east of the Dnieper, and over the Black Sea littoral, there would have been no time for the creation of a civilian resistance, and no time for the NWO/ZOG powers of the EU, UK, and North America to respond effectively. Also, the Ukrainian civilians would not have suffered harm, certainly not on the scale that looks likely now.
In the ancient cult of Magna Mater, the candidates for initiation had at one point to wade through a literal bath of blood. Metaphorically, that is where Putin and the Russian forces now are.
Unless they are going to abandon the operation completely, which would not only be humiliating for Putin personally but disastrous for Russia strategically, they have to press on to victory, even though any victory now will be horrible and bitter.
NATO, the EU, even usually-neutral Sweden, and others, are funnelling serious armament into Ukraine now. It will be placed at the disposal of the Kiev regime.
The ground-to-air armament flooding in may deny Russia command of the skies before very long. Even now, Russia’s air force does not seem to be being used as effectively as it could be, and certainly not as ruthlessly as the Americans use theirs.
This situation can only worsen for Russia over time. The only answer will be for Russia to destroy the Kiev regime very soon, whatever it takes. The key players have to be captured or eliminated.
I tremble for the remaining civilian population of Ukraine (and their companion animals). This should never have happened, certainly not in this way.
Supplies of food and fuel must be running out in Kiev. The odds are still in favour of the Russian invaders, if they press forward.
The Russian Army has been hugely upgraded over the past 15 years, but has shown itself incapable of proper staff work and planning. It dithered for weeks (that may have been Putin’s fault), then launched an unimpressive, sluggish and “bitty” invasion that seems to have lacked elan and rigour.
In a way, this incipient debacle is reminiscent of what happened in Karelia in 1939-40.
Stalin would have been shooting generals by now. Putin cannot do that, but he has to reinvigorate this operation before it becomes a manifest and historic defeat.
How is it that a country with (one reads) 4,500 fighter aircraft cannot dominate the skies of one that has fewer than 100?
If Putin and his generals do nothing, or if they withdraw behind Russia’s frontiers, The Kiev regime will be resupplied, its forces upgraded (all paid for by NWO/ZOG states), and before long there will be NATO or NATO-proxy forces stationed only 300 miles from Moscow (Moscow is 300 miles from the Ukrainian border at the nearest point).
The logic of the above is that the Kiev regime must now be toppled by massive force, even though a victory bought at such a price in destruction and suffering could not be other than bitter and even sickening.
[Wanda Landowska with Tolstoy, at Yasnaya Polyana]
Ukraine— possible developments
What if Russian forces manage to control the whole area east of the Dnieper, as well as the Kiev area and the Black Sea coast? What then?
If there is a relocation of the Kiev regime to Lvov, with control over the western part of Ukraine, then NATO and the EU will flood it with arms and training staff. Russia, and Putin especially, would then have the choice of coming to some accommodation with that government, or fighting it. The Western allies would presumably keep referring to it as the Government of Ukraine de jure, even if the Russians install a Ukraine government, de facto, in Kiev.
In fact, both such regimes would only, de facto, control about half of of the whole country. Both would be supported as “de jure” governments of the whole by, and only by, their individual patron-states.
It is hard to see any such Lvov regime accepting Russian rule over a third to a half of present Ukraine, and including Kiev. On the other hand, and on present evidence, the Russian forces would seem incapable of taking the whole country, let alone holding it.
It is easy for many to talk about Ukraine as if it is smaller than it is, but Ukraine is about the same size as France. Huge. Nearly three times the size of the whole UK.
As for Kiev, with its 3 million inhabitants, it is —depending on where administrative boundaries are drawn— about the 7th-largest city by population in Europe. Indeed, if one excludes Istanbul, Moscow, and St. Petersburg, the 4th-largest.
Of course, if one includes suburbs outside strict city limits, London and Paris have even larger populations, but that would still mean that Kiev would be the 5th-largest city in Europe (excl. cities in European Turkey and European Russia), after London, Paris, Madrid, and Berlin.
The international situation can only go down from here. On the periphery, biding its time, China…
Time to repost my blog thoughts about the potential necessity of founding a new civilization on the rubble of the old…
"…we do not only fight for the Ukraine, we fight for the New World Order. We are the shield for Europe." Look at the WEF website! https://t.co/SOSlhatIBt
As that person is saying, Russia is not, as yet anyway, flattening everything in Ukraine, whereas the American idea, seen repeatedly, is to flatten whole cities, regardless of civilian harm.
In any case, Putin does not want to take over a flattened wasteland.The way things are going, though, he may have little choice.
Again, the cold logic seems to lead to a massive attack on the locations of the Kiev regime itself, i.e. on central Kiev, with the aim of decapitating the present government and thus starting to end any mass resistance.
Sachs’ cretinous plan for “capitalism in 100 days” in early 1990s Russia killed, by its implementation (in part) and also by its influence, millions of Russians and, by extension, Ukrainians, via starvation and by lack of care and services. Does that count as a “holocaust”?
In fact, most of the Washington neocons were Jews. Not only that, but many, perhaps most, of those (from both Soviet and other backgrounds) who profited from Russian misery under Yeltsin were Jews.
I can understand why Hitchens feels unable to mention the Jewish background of most of the guilty: for one thing, he is himself partly-Jewish; for another, he would lose his Mail on Sunday column immediately, so infested has the UK msm become.
Comments about Ukraine
“I’m told I am supporting the invasion by saying we provoked it. But if I warn a child that, if he annoys a wasp, it will sting him, am I supporting the wasp?“[Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday].
“And now here we are again, in a moralising frenzy. The BBC, which insisted on strict neutrality between Britain and Argentina in its coverage of the Falklands War, flings itself into an ignorant and one-sided coverage of the Ukraine crisis.
A leading presenter proclaims, from a city he weirdly calls ‘Kyeeeev’, that Ukraine is a ‘European democracy’, in which case he is very easily satisfied.
As my old friend Edward Lucas, no friend of Russia, put it in the Daily Mail yesterday, Ukraine is a country where ‘oligarchs run media empires, with politicians and officials on the payroll.
The judicial system is a festering mess where arrests, prosecutions and verdicts are used as score-settlers between political and commercial rivals.
Senior positions are bought and sold. Healthcare and education are plagued by kickbacks. The security service, the SBU, is infested with intrigue and sleaze – and penetrated by Russian agents of influence’.
Justified outrage over the terrible harvest of war would be more convincing if we had paid more attention to the hundreds of civilian casualties, many of them inflicted by Ukrainian armed forces, in and near the breakaway regions in the country’s East.
“It would also be more convincing if our political and media establishment had not supported the Nato bombing of Belgrade in 1999 (with major civilian casualties); the crazy invasion of Iraq in 2003; and the forgotten Nato bombing of Libya, also with its toll of dismembered children killed in supposed ‘surgical strikes’.”
[Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday].
NATO had outlived its original usefulness by the time the Soviet Union finally disappeared in 1991, but the “New World Order” [NWO] cabals were not going to let that happen.
“I am accused of treachery, or of being an apologist for Russia, for urging a different view on this crisis. Surely this is how dissent is treated in dictatorships.
I write this as a British patriot. How was it in our interests to provoke a war we cannot win, and cannot even fight, against a country which is not, in fact, our enemy?” [Peter Hitchens in The Mail on Sunday]
Yet half-Jew MP Tom Tugendhat would have Peter Hitchens, and others who are against this crazy demonization of Russia, to be charged with treason! He has urged amendment to the Treason Act, no less.
How can Tugendhat pretend that Britain is at war with Russia? If it were, Tugendhat would no longer exist, neither would the House of Commons, or London. Think about that, you evil idiot.
Still, a significant NWO/ZOG drone, who wants to be Leader of the Conservative Party, and Prime Minister. I hope that that unpleasant would-be dictator never achieves his careerist goal.
By the way, part-Jew Tugendhat wants to expel all Russians from the UK; he has explicitly said so. I have a different idea about who should be expelled…
I see that the Tugendhat family emerged, in modern times, from the town formerly called Bielitz, in Silesia, now called Bielsko-Biala, and within Polish territory. I visited that town twice in 1988 (summer and winter) and stayed there for a number of weeks.
[street in Bielsko-Biala, Poland; the town was rather more shabby in 1988-89]
[major thoroughfare in Bielsko-Biala, Poland. If I am not mistaken, I was caught by the police in 1988, illegally crossing the road by there (up on the left of the photo), given a hard time, albeit briefly, and fined on the spot. Poland was strict about “jaywalking”— I was caught again the following year, in Warsaw. I must be a recidivist…]
Feeble Labour
The (((occupied))) Labour Party under Jewish-lobby puppet Keir Starmer becomes ever more feeble. As it has done ever since Starmer replaced Corbyn after the 2019 General Election, all it can say about the Ukraine policy of the Boris-idiot government is “me too!” or “me too! but do it more harshly and more efficiently!“
I happened to see ridiculous creature David Lammy on a news broadcast, wanting Ukrainian refugees to enter the UK. In fact, I have little objection to that, in principle. After all, they are white Europeans. Also, they are at least genuine refugees, and are only fleeing by reason of large-scale dislocation, of which they are “innocent” victims.
The devil is in the detail, in the numbers, bearing in mind how stressed and indeed swamped the UK’s services and infrastructure already are, and how crowded the UK now is.
Ukraine: Numbers are constantly being updated but the latest count of refugee arrivals in neighbouring countries now exceeds 200,000. We aim to have another update later today.
As for the growing #SWIFT ban, this will hit #Germany far more than #Russia. Crippling rival European nations & economies was the key Washington war aim in WW1 & WW2. And they're still at it!
An orgy of MSM propaganda bullshit about "Putin's stalled offensive". The truth is that the #RussianArmy has captured more cities than any in history, & that they do it in careful stages. Plus, they are trying to avoid killing civilians. The inevitable will take a few days.
I do not agree entirely with that. The offensive has been far too sluggish. It should have started weeks ago, and been prosecuted with more elan.
Stalin would already have shot a few generals by now.
What was required was a swift, overwhelming and mighty Blitzkrieg to secure all strategic objectives and, exactly by so doing, to keep the civilian population from harm.
I see that Griffin’s Twitter account is now restricted and cannot be searched for by name on the Twitter website. How long before he joins me, David Icke, Katie Hopkins etc in being expelled from Twitter?

Cartoon seen
The caption on the left is in Russian and says: “there is your enemy— the Khokhol (or Kakhlak)” (derogatory term for Ukrainian), with Jew pointing.
The righthand caption says, in Ukrainian, “there is your enemy— the Moskal” (derogatory term for Russian), with Jew pointing.
The explanation below the cartoon refers to the Russians and Ukrainians being played off against each other.
I do not necessarily “endorse” the cartoon, but it indicates what some people in that part of the world think. It is true that the Ukraine/Kiev regime is basically Jewish, and that the Putin government is at least strongly influenced by Jewish and Israeli interests.
I remember when that happened. The Ukrainian regime tried to deprive the inhabitants of Crimea (95% of whom are Russian) of water. The Russians in Southern Russia had to divert water to Crimea from elsewhere.
I feel sorry for ppl in Ukraine , but the hypocrisy from the govt and media of this issue vis a vis why ppl went to Afghanistan, Bosnia etc shows they have learnt nothing . It’s just total double standards.
The Kiev regime has issued an open invitation to any and all foreign adventurers, freebooters, and criminals, to present themselves at the border of the Ukraine and be issued with a weapon and (I presume) ammunition, no questions asked. What could possibly go wrong?
If any of those volunteers are captured in the field, and under arms, they may well end up getting shot.
The comment (in Turkish) apparently means “the only winner of this war will be the USA, and the loser will be humanity“. For “USA” read “NWO” I suppose…
May God bless you and meet all your needs for showing compassion to abandoned animals.
Interesting. The composer was about 73 when it was written.
More Ukraine thoughts
Zelensky may agree to talks, but if Putin agrees, it will be only to try to placate the West. Unless his forces get totally bogged down, he has no incentive to talk seriously. The Ukrainians are running out of fuel, ammo, food. Russian forces are in, though not yet controlling, Kiev, Kharkov etc.

In Ukraine, former soldiers ready 2 defend the country will be released from prisons. This was stated by the prosecutor of the Prosecutor General's Office of Ukraine Andriy Sinyuk. https://t.co/jgZuqzzv9V
Coverage of this war is maddening. Western fluff pieces make zero sense "Russian soldiers in Ukrainian uniforms killed" "ghost of Kiev" "40k Russians killed" and Russian media has always been absurd. Then there's social media experts… phew. We won't know any truth for a while. https://t.co/OTIsIAnelG
The slide into confrontation with Russia has been swift. It is reminiscent, though it has progressed quicker, of the situation in Afghanistan in the early 1980s. Supply of weapons in order to “help” the invaded country. Look what happened there. This is even more likely to lead to a general conflagration.
Supplying weapons to the Kiev regime will not help the people of Ukraine. It will deepen the conflict.
Germany is supplying about 1,500 ground-to-air missiles to the Kiev regime. That is not far removed from being a direct participant in a war.
The Russian invasion has been badly-handled. Instead of a swift and overwhelming assault, particularly on Kiev, it is developing into a stagnant battle of attrition.
Russia now has no choice but to use more force in order to secure its objectives. More force. More death and destruction. More harm.
There is something fated about all this. What will the end be, either soon or in 5-10 years’ time? Massive warfare all across Europe? Nuclear war? The feeling is not optimistic.

This is what is coming for all of us if we do not take on the NWO/ZOG state(s) of Evil now.
I may be wrong, but it strikes me that NWO/ZOG is using Canada as a testing ground now because Canada has only a fragile sense of its own identity, and that identity crisis has been made worse by the importation of millions of non-whites from all over the world: Indians, Pakistanis, Chinese, Arabs etc.
Combine that with the strong Jew element in (especially) Montreal and you get a country with little real self-hood. Without a binding racial, ethnic, religious or cultural connection, there is only force to hold together such a country.
The degree of information control on YouTube is amazing. Nearly all of the channels I would watch in 2017 are gone. I just end up listening to stuff from MLs like Caleb Maupin. This is the most "interesting" content to be found on YouTube today.
The censorship online is increasing. Most of the interesting Twitter accounts run by individuals are now gone: mine, and those of others, such as David Icke, Alison Chabloz; innumerable others. Looking at my blog posts from even a year ago, there are gaps, sometimes large, where tweeters of tweets I embedded have been expelled.

Ukraine
As previously blogged, it is tragic that two peoples so closely-entwined historically as the Russian and the Ukrainian have come to this pass after only 30 years out of a mutual history stretching back over a thousand years.
Sovietism was, after all, fundamentally Jewish rather than Russian in its genesis.
As far as the present situation is concerned, its immediate roots go back to the 1990s, when the “West” (fundamentally the USA, as main component of the “New World Order” [NWO] proclaimed by President Bush snr.) treated the former Soviet Union as if colonial territory, as if the Soviet Union and so Russia had been defeated. Of course, there was some truth in that, but only some. The Soviet Union/Russia was defeated from within, mainly. President Bush snr. however, crowed that “we won the Cold War“. Again, partly but not entirely true.
NATO expanded, and obviously has it in mind to expand again, to include Ukraine once circumstances allow.
Putin is now attempting to redraw the map of Europe. This is a strategic move on the highest level. A seizure of Kiev, the Eastern Ukraine (i.e. Ukraine east of the Dnieper river), and the entire Black Sea littoral (including Odessa) will immeasurably strengthen Russia in the long term.
It is almost laughable to suggest that Putin will give up such a plan, and such an invasion, as the price of a stilted “summit” meeting with the apparently almost ga-ga President of the United States.
Biden cannot even promise that NATO will not one day include Ukraine. He will not withdraw American troops and planes from the Baltic states and Poland. In fact, Biden can offer nothing except vague reassurances, meaningless and entirely cynical.
I do not think that Putin and his people imagine that many will take seriously the “Gleiwitz radio station” disinformation presently being put out by the Russian authorities. They are doing it pro forma, almost tiredly. Cynicism rules on both sides.
Putin knows that, short of starting a nuclear war between NATO and Russia, there are few arrows in the Western quiver. Critical words, economic sanctions, possible help to anti-Russian irregular forces in Ukraine (if the Kiev regime were to be toppled); little more.
The Russian invasion must take place. It must be swift. It must be overwhelming, and I hope that it can be with as little harm to civilians and others as possible.
The Ukrainian people must know now that the “West” cannot be relied upon. The US, UK, and other embassies have, as I predicted, already fled from Kiev to Lvov, 340 miles to the west.
As can be seen on the immediately-above map, before 1954, Crimea was not part of Ukraine politically, while Lvov (in the yellow area) was within the Austro-Hungarian Empire until 1919, and then Poland until 1939.
Those border lines have historically been fluid.
[“Russia has no borders; it is wherever there are Russian people“]
For me, apart from being interested in the situation for itself, the interest lies in what this whole series of events might mean for Europe as a whole.
The Ukraine situation has exposed the weakness and disunity of “the West”. The United States is shown as an emperor without clothes. It has immense military-destructive power but little else. Its failures to change the mindset, or the people, of Iraq and Afghanistan, are daily obvious. Its great military power is now matched by by both Russia and China, even on the nuclear-weapons level. Its society is failing from the inside out. It was led by a squawking parrot (Trump) and now by a semi-demented semi-invalid (Biden).
Despite the protestations of the political pygmies of Western Europe, the likes of Boris-idiot, Macron, and Liz Truss (can we even mention her in a serious study?), it is clear that the West does not “speak with one voice“; indeed not even the EU.
The American, British, and French leaderships are running around like headless chickens. Macron’s vanity and ambition has resulted in him being played like a fish by Putin; Macron does not even realize it.
As for unimpressive idiots such as “Boris” and Liz Truss, they are just “noises off”, without any importance at all.
If Putin can take over the most important third or so of Ukraine (the areas already mentioned above), and if the NWO powers then try to foment a kind of civil war (as in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria etc), then Russia might be more inclined to help social nationalism triumph in Western Europe. A silver lining to the dark cloud of war.
“…veteran comedian Jack Dee said he did not believe the state should intervene on ‘what can and can’t be said’, adding: ‘I think we’re sophisticated enough as an audience to discern what we want without calling the cops‘.” [Daily Mail].
Putin said that Russia was “robbed” by the collapse of the Soviet Union and that Ukraine “has never had traditions of its own statehood”. https://t.co/c1lkF5pGWr
Well, that claim about Ukraine is certainly true; maybe that is why the Ukraine has been such a corrupt and unpleasant mess (and riddled with Jewish exploitation) for the past 30 years.
The Queen has had an unreliable test suggesting she might have tiny traces of a mild respiratory virus in her nose. Could be a novel coronavirus, could be an influenza virus, could be rhinovirus, could be anything.
Psychotic MSM journos instantly diagnose her with a disease.
BBC news leading with the fact that The Queen has the sniffles rather than the fact that a country of which she is head of State has been taken over by a fascist regime.
I suppose that people think that Gates is some kind of genius because of his huge amounts of money.
That we can go from international uproar over an instance of nuanced police brutality on a convicted felon in 2020, to international indifference over blatant police brutality against innocent citizens standing up for their rights just 2 years later, tells us a lot about society.
Caroline Lucas would love to impose pseudo-“green” dictatorship on the UK —though there is nothing “green” about unlimited immigration, for one thing— but —thankfully— she is a political irrelevance.
I notice that Victoria Macdonald is the Health and Social Care Editor for Channel 4 News. She is also a New Zealander, and I have never yet met a New Zealand woman who was anything other than a half-witted pain in the ****.
