WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia

[Ravenlocke]

Text:
In the Pokrovsk direction, the advance of the Russian Armed Forces is recorded near the settlement of Petrovka, as well as in the direction of the settlement of Dachenskoye.

The Russian Armed Forces advanced about 1 km and took up new positions in the northern outreach of Selidovo near Petrovka. Ukrainian troops, trying to stop the attack of Russian troops, actively covered them with artillery fire.

It is likely that all these actions are, in fact, preparations for the beginning of the assault on Pokrovsk, which is considered the main goal of the Russian army's offensive in Donbass.

What if...

In the case that the Biden administration orders the military to operate (from Ukraine) long-range missiles against Russia, what if the military stands DOWN. Military personnel would know that US long-range missiles against Russia is insane and extremely dangerous for US and the world.. They would have reasonable grounds to stand down.

Ukraine launches first ATACMS strike on Russia, sending Markets Reeling amid WW3 fears

About a day after President Biden authorized (https://www.zerohedge.com/markets/major-policy-shift-biden-authorizes-ukraines-use-us-missiles-hit-targets-inside-russia) Ukraine to use the long-range US-made MGM-140 Army Tactical Missile System to strike deeper into Russian territory, a new report suggests that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have hit a military installation in the western Bryansk region. This comes after Kremlin spokesperson Dmitry Peskov said Russia's nuclear weapons doctrine was changed and signed by President Vladimir Putin, indicating "the use of Western non-nuclear rockets by the Armed Forces of Ukraine against Russia can prompt a nuclear response."

"For the first time, Ukraine's Defense Forces struck Russian territory with ATACMS ballistic missiles," RBC Ukraine (https://newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/ukraine-strikes-russian-territory-with-atacms-1732011994.html) news agency reported Tuesday.

RBC Ukraine said the military facility near the city of Karachev in the Bryansk region was successfully hit with ATACMS. This location was about 115 kilometers (71 miles) from the border with Ukraine.

According to realists such as Scott Ritter, and Donald Trump, today - as the US prepared to attack Russia with guided missiles, the world is closer to nuclear war than it ever has been (at least, since September, when the US backed down from attacking Russia with one day to go).

I checked the Guardian UK newspaper (which reliably parrots the UK Globalist Establishment line) - and they had a commentary by the "defence expert" Dan Sabbagh (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/nov/19/tuesday-briefing-first-edition-joe-biden-long-range-missiles-policy-war-in-ukraine) - Russia's official policy of responding to a swarm missile attack, which may be an attempted decapitation first-strike (they would not know for sure until it was too late) by automatically activating their nuclear deterrence response - is "scary rhetoric to try and affect US public opinion".

So that's okay! - nothing to be concerned about then. It's just those silly Russians with their "scary rhetoric" again...

If the nuclear warmongers do get their way, and the UK/ France/ Germany/ Poland/ US etc suddenly find themselves hit by a massive counterstrike - it will come as a complete surprise to almost everybody in these nations, who get their information filtered of all relevant detail by the official and mainstream media sources. At present these outlets are simply refusing to state the Russian point of view at all (which is surely what really matters in this situation?), and blocking the simple fact that any ATACMS-like missile attack will be an act of war conducted by the US, just as much as if they sent USAF aircraft to drop bombs on Russia.

Instead, the UK media/ officials harp on and on about this being about the US "giving permission" for Ukraine to shoot US supplied missiles - as if these satellite programmed and controlled missiles were like rifles or cannons that only needed someone to pull the trigger or press a button.

The UK media have also decided to pretend that the decision to risk nuclear war is simply a response to the alleged deployment of some North Korean troops within Russia (not in Ukraine) - which manpower will (in the fantasy world view of military expert Dan) "help tip the balance at a time when Ukraine and Russia are suffering from war exhaustion".

In other words, the official line is still that the only reason that the Ukraine has not already destroyed Russia is that "Ukraine remains trapped in an agonising strategic predicament, perpetually seeking western assistance to win the war but receiving just enough support “to lose slowly”, Dan says."

The implication is that NATO should have gone all-in on the side of (non-NATO member) Ukraine from the beginning, in a NATO versus Russia (and allies) world war - and that is, of course, just what these characters are hoping will happen, very soon.

Russian Air Defenses Down 5 ATACMS Missiles Over Bryansk Region 7 hours ago (Updated: 6 hours ago)

The armed forces of Ukraine struck with six ATACMS ballistic missiles at the Bryansk Region, the Russian Defense Ministry said on Tuesday.

"At 3:25 a.m. tonight [local time, 00:25 GMT], the enemy struck a facility in the Bryansk Region with six ballistic missiles. According to confirmed data, US-made ATACMS tactical missiles have been used," the report read.

☣️RUSSIA’S NEW NUCLEAR DOCTRINE: WHAT HAS CHANGED?

President Vladimir Putin has authorized the country’s updated nuclear doctrine, bringing into force changes that he first announced in September. What are the updates about?

The previous version singled out four situations in which the Russian head of state may decide on the use nuclear weapons: a ballistic missile attack on Russia; an attack on the country using weapons of mass destruction; an attack on Russian state or military facilities; and an aggression against Russia with the use of conventional weapons when “the very existence of the state is at risk.”

Under the current doctrine, in addition to the aforementioned clauses, Russia can also press the red button if👇:

🔴There is an attack with the use of conventional weapons against Russia and (or) Belarus as members of the Union State, which poses “a critical threat to their sovereignty and (or) territorial integrity” (“the very existence of the state is at risk” term has been omitted).

🔴There is “reliable information about a mass launch of means for an aerospace attack” (strategic and tactical warplanes, cruise missiles, unmanned aerial vehicles, as well as hypersonic and other systems) and their crossing of Russia’s state border.

Unlike the 2020 version, the new doctrine separately stipulates that Russia is authorized to use nuclear weapons if jointly attacked by “any non-nuclear state”, which is supported by a country possessing nukes.

Additionally, the revised doctrine lists more threats that require counteraction through nuclear deterrence, among them the development of anti-ballistic missile systems, deployment of conventional weapon systems that can strike Russian territory, and potential sabotage plots to cause large-scale environmental disasters.

Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov has meanwhile stressed that changes to the doctrine were made in order to adapt “our vision of the use of nuclear weapons to the realities of the modern-day world.”

Potential adversaries, criteria for use: Russia’s revised nuclear doctrine

Russia will also engage in nuclear deterrence against those countries that offer their territory, maritime zones, airspace, and resources for aggression against it

MOSCOW, November 19. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin has signed a decree ratifying the revised nuclear doctrine, titled "Foundations of State Policy on Nuclear Deterrence."

The document has been officially published.

According to Kremlin Spokesman Dmitry Peskov, the document will be scrutinized both domestically and internationally.

TASS has compiled the key details of the doctrine.

Key provisions

According to the document, nuclear deterrence is aimed at "a potential adversary, which may encompass individual countries and military alliances (blocs, unions) that regard Russia as a potential enemy and possess nuclear and/or other weapons of mass destruction, or have substantial combat capabilities of general-purpose forces."

Russia will also engage in nuclear deterrence against those countries that offer their territory, maritime zones, airspace, and resources for aggression against it.

The president is the ultimate authority on the use of nuclear weapons.

Aggression from any non-nuclear state, but with the involvement or backing of a nuclear state, will be considered a joint attack on Russia.

Additionally, a nuclear response is deemed possible if there is a critical threat to Russia’s sovereignty, even from conventional weapons, including an attack on Belarus as part of the Union State, or a massive launch of warplanes, cruise missiles, drones, or other aircraft crossing the Russian border.

Kremlin’s commentary

The published document will undergo in-depth analysis both in Russia and abroad, Peskov stated.

He explained that updating the doctrine was necessary to bring it into line with the current political landscape.

The Kremlin official reaffirmed that Russia has consistently maintained a responsible position and taken necessary steps to mitigate the nuclear threat and prevent the worsening of international relations. He stressed that nuclear weapons are regarded by Russia solely as a last resort.

Peskov emphasized that the potential adversary must understand the "inevitability of retribution" for any aggressive actions against Russia and its allies.

Putin’s spokesman also noted that the updated doctrine envisions a possible nuclear response in the event that Ukraine uses Western non-nuclear projectiles against Russia.

RUSSIAN AIR DEFENSES’ REPUTATION AS ‘ATACMS KILLERS’ MAY STOKE SOARING DEMAND

Yuri Knutov, Russian military expert and air defense forces historian

“We have proven that Russia possesses the best air defense in the world, which is why, in my opinion, the interest in our air defenses grows so much.”

“They (other countries) do not possess S-400, S-350 Vityaz or S-300V4 or Buk-M3 or Pantsir, i.e. the systems that can successfully counter ATACMS missiles specifically.”

The Russian Armed Forces (VS RF) have reportedly begun using a new FPV kamikaze drone called “Molniya-2” (“Lightning-2”). Despite its size, comparable to the Orlan-30 reconnaissance drone, the Molniya-2 is designed as a fully operational FPV kamikaze drone with an extended range of up to 40 kilometers, similar to the Lancet loitering munition.

Key Features of Molniya-2:

•Launch Method: The drone is launched using a catapult system.

•Payload: It carries a 3-kilogram cumulative charge for targeting enemy equipment and fortifications.

•Design: Equipped with two electric motors on its wings; the front of the fuselage houses the explosive payload, unlike the Orlan-30.

•Control System: Operated through FPV goggles and a joystick, enhancing real-time targeting.

•Cost-Effectiveness: Considerably cheaper than other drones in its class.

•Autonomous Features: Includes autopilot functionality with machine vision to navigate around enemy electronic warfare (EW) zones.

•AI-Assisted Targeting: Ukrainian reports claim the drone can independently lock onto targets using AI, even in the presence of radio interference.

The drone’s advanced technology allows it to track and destroy moving targets effectively. In one documented instance, a Molniya-2 drone was shown pursuing and neutralizing a Ukrainian truck towing artillery equipment. Its integration of machine vision and AI makes it a significant addition to the arsenal of Russian FPV kamikaze drones.

🇩🇪⚔️🇷🇺 Germany is seriously preparing for war with Russia

The Bundeswehr has stepped up the implementation of Operation Plan Germany. The classified strategic document includes the procedure for preparing the country in case of war with Russia, writes Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitun.

For these purposes, military department officers provide consultations and training to enterprise management for the wartime period. In particular, at events of the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce and Industry, recommendations were voiced to train at least five additional truck drivers for every hundred employees.

This measure is due to concerns of the German military about the unreliability of 70% of drivers in Germany, who are from Eastern European countries. It is recommended to draw up a plan for such workers, describing what to expect and how to treat such employees.

In addition, it is recommended to engage in self-sufficiency in backup sources of electricity by purchasing diesel generators or wind power plants.

The document also lists all structures and infrastructure that are particularly worthy of protection for military reasons.

Earlier, in September 2024, Bundeswehr Colonel Kronstadt from the headquarters of the Joint Command NATO Joint Support and Enabling Command (JSEC) said it was working to create a " permanent corridor " across Europe to the borders of Russia and Belarus.

Whatever figure comes after the puppet Scholz, the policy of confrontation (covert or open) will continue in the German state.

Well, Biden didn't just start a slow process to get long-range missiles into Ukraine - they were already moved into Ukraine when Joe "Toddler with a Grenade" Biden spoke the words. I think its time for Russia to either take over Ukraine or take out all military infrastructure and communications infrastructure, totally neutering Ukraine so the USA/NATO can't do anything about it.

One of their new weapons (not used yet...) is a "glide vehicle" in a triangle shape, about 5 m long, that is transported with an intercontinental missile witch can transport 10 of those things...

It can hit whatever point on the planet from whatever point with a velocity from match 9 ! and that speed made impossible to be take down and the kinetic force destroy everything ! without been nuclear!

It can get at least trough 100 m underground and then explode! All 10 "vehicle" can be send to different targets...

I disagree with the statement that a Congressionally declared war means that the incumbent president does not have to turn over the keys. No support for that opinion will be found anywhere in the US Constitution. And, should the criminals in Congress and/or elsewhere advance such a preposterous argument or attempt to pass a “law” that gutlessly proclaims, to the effect, that in time of a declared war the incumbent president remains in power, they will lose bigly.

"Ukraine’s choice to use its very scarce remaining ATACMS stockpiles on some useless Soviet depot with no connection to the SMO is very telling. It once again reveals that Ukraine has no hope of actually winning the war kinetically and does not even bother trying to use the ATACMS against actual useful targets in the field. Instead, Zelensky deliberately chooses some defenseless backwater ‘showpiece’ to make a headline splash because an old Soviet stockpile will create the largest visible mushroom cloud to wow observers, while having no appreciable effect. The ATACMS could have been used somewhere on the front to devastate Russian assault groups, or echelon C2 headquarters, etc." - Simplicius


From Simplicius via his Substack (https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/zelenskys-atacms-gambit-nuclear-red):



Zelensky's ATACMS Gambit: Nuclear Red Alert or More Empty Provocations?


SIMPLICIUS, NOVEMBER 20, 2024

As could be expected, immediately upon receipt of “authorization” from Biden, Ukraine reportedly launched an ATACMS strike on the Russian 67th GRAU depot in Bryansk region.

The difference this time is the Russian MOD themselves officially announced the usage of 6 ATACMS, of which 5 they claim were shot down:

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F4cf3970c-191a-4579-956a-dddeb39b2f22_556x900.jpeg

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fd6cf168c-caf2-40bb-9a86-469a186cea13_1200x631.jpeg

Another report claimed that Ukrainian official sources reported Russia only shot down 2 out of the 6. It’s difficult to believe shoot down claims from either side, as both regularly make up “shoot downs” to cover for successful strikes, but in this case we’ll see when the BDA satellite photos appear if there’s any real damage commensurate with more than one hit.

But first let’s get a few things straight. Multiple people have suggested the one clear video of the strike is infact recycled footage, with claims that even NASA’s FIRMS map has refuted any large scale explosions took place:

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2Fcb0042ea-ed2e-49d7-b88f-fa60f9d810b1_1272x549.jpeg

I have not independently verified the FIRMS myself yet, but it’s true the other videos from the vicinity feature mostly explosive sounds but no similar fireball or plume as to the one main video—and it would seem to corroborate the Russian MOD’s words that “no damage” occurred in the strikes. In previous hits on larger Russian depots we had multiple videos of the gigantic explosion—so this one is a bit suspicious, although there are some other videos showing what appears to be secondaries exploding in the distance, though as always absolute verification is impossible.

There are other reports, like from the Wagner-affiliated Condottiero channel, which likewise corroborates that not much damage was actually done:


Condottiero

By the way, about Bryansk and the arsenal of the Russian Ministry of Defense. I will disappoint battle bloggers from both sides of the conflict. The arsenal and its main territory are not damaged.

Everything else is in the press release of the Russian Ministry of Defense.

Lastly, even pro-UA accounts admit this arsenal houses old Soviet stock and has no direct relevance to the ongoing SMO.

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F0a11aabb-0e00-4533-906d-b9481b33814e_726x502.png

What does that all mean?

That even if Ukraine did score a hit, it was once again nothing more than a ‘low hanging fruit’ PR job meant to strike an irrelevant backwater object for the same old purpose of getting up on the scoreboard and inflating the sudden narrative boost of “US solidarity”.

Remember, the last few attacks were fairly successful in blasting out huge chunks of these old Soviet depots in Tver and elsewhere, and what effect did that have? Russia’s current record offensive which is overrunning Ukrainian lines everywhere began literally right after the depots were destroyed—all while Western press assured us that “50% of all Russian Army’s ammo has been annihilated!”

They claimed it would cripple Russia and immediately sap its offensives, yet the total opposite happened. The current comparatively tiny strike will have even less effect on the ongoing hostilities.

That being said, Putin is still reacting with the seriousness of due diligence given the apparently confirmed nature of ATACMS use on Russian territory. As such, he again made headlines by ratifying the new nuclear doctrinal shifts.

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F23817bf7-7650-4197-986a-74eeb5fcab3c_1070x1335.jpeg

The doctrine of course allows Russia to respond with nuclear use against overwhelming air attacks or attacks from a proxy aided in large part by a major nuclear adversary.

Three major things can be said about this situation:

The first is that doomers and pro-UA content mashers hyperfocus on Ukraine’s occasional inconsequential strikes while, as always, ignoring the monstrous daily strikes of equal or greater capacity that Russia doles out regularly. For instance, in the same span that this ATACMS strike occurred, Russia blew away two major enterprises with fireball plumes as large as the claimed 67th GRAU one, seen from miles away.

https://video.twimg.com/amplify_video/1858639204172832768/vid/avc1/480x894/Iku_maFu7PGkX9xg.mp4?tag=16


Critical infrastructure and facilities of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in Zaporozhye are under attack by the Russian Armed Forces TG channels report a massive raid by "Geraniya".

The head of the OVA Fedorov reports on the casualties.

Local sources write about the lack of water and heating in some areas.

Ostashko reports

And today as of this writing another swift retaliation:

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F8291b81f-14c6-4278-a325-6dea75161d7c_1189x489.jpeg

And the day before that there were massive strikes on Odessa which crippled several large enterprises; that’s not even counting the “biggest of the war” strikes on Ukraine’s energy grids. So as you can see, Russia levies daily what Ukraine is able to do once a month, or even a season. It’s just par for the course in terms of Russian strikes, yet doomers will have us focus on the one rarity that Ukraine is able to slip by.

The second thing.

Ukraine’s choice to use its very scarce remaining ATACMS stockpiles on some useless Soviet depot with no connection to the SMO is very telling. It once again reveals that Ukraine has no hope of actually winning the war kinetically and does not even bother trying to use the ATACMS against actual useful targets in the field. Instead, Zelensky deliberately chooses some defenseless backwater ‘showpiece’ to make a headline splash because an old Soviet stockpile will create the largest visible mushroom cloud to wow observers, while having no appreciable effect. The ATACMS could have been used somewhere on the front to devastate Russian assault groups, or echelon C2 headquarters, etc.

The British Sunday Times says Ukraine has as few as 50 ATACMS missiles, so if 6 are being utilized against pointless objects it again reaffirms everything we’ve known about Zelensky’s remaining strategic impulse.

https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/w_1456,c_limit,f_webp,q_auto:good,fl_progressive:steep/https%3A%2F%2Fsubstack-post-media.s3.amazonaws.com%2Fpublic%2Fimages%2F553e1dc8-5013-48d5-a3b8-428bd2a12321_923x317.png

The third and most important thing.

Though Putin had to make some escalatory show, it’s more realistic to expect Russia not to react in any overt way until Trump’s term settles in. Putin is aware that an outgoing senile despot who doesn’t care if the world burns behind him may seek to start WWIII, and that Zelensky may see his final two months’ chance to provoke Russia into overreacting. As such, it’s best for Russia to do nothing, and continue grinding the offensives which are destroying Ukrainian lines everywhere.

Putin had to put on a show of signing the decree only because Russia can’t sit back and allow a red line to be crossed with no overt signal or posture change at all—that would simply be imprudent. So Putin made the minimal necessary move to signal Russia’s warnings just to keep a consistent line on things, but unless Zelensky continues with a more provocative strike, I don’t expect Russia to react too much. By provocative, I mean hitting some actual ‘strategically’ important objective, or near a nuclear plant—something along those lines.

Russia merely has to wait two months for Trump to potentially roll Biden’s dementia-riddled policies back. Of course, Trump could keep or even expand the provocations, as we’ve written about many times—no one knows for sure which direction Trump will go, but at least there’s a chance it won’t be the dangerous one.

Biden committing ‘unconstitutional аct of war’ – US lawmaker
Allowing Ukraine use American missiles against Russia is an impeachable act, Congressman Thomas Massie has claimed

President Joe Biden has violated the US Constitution and ought to be impeached for permitting Ukraine to fire American-supplied long-range missiles into Russia, Congressman Thomas Massie has said.

Multiple US outlets reported over the weekend that Biden had lifted the restrictions on Kiev’s use of US-supplied rockets. While the White House has neither confirmed nor denied the news officially, a volley of missiles was fired at Russia’s Bryansk Region early on Tuesday.

“By authorizing long range missiles to strike inside Russia, Biden is committing an unconstitutional Act of War that endangers the lives of all US citizens,” Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday.

“This is an impeachable offense, but the reality is he’s an emasculated puppet of a deep state,” he added.

According to anonymous officials who spoke to the media, the US permission would “mostly” apply to the Kursk Region of Russia, which Ukraine invaded in August. The decision was reportedly triggered by the Ukrainian claim that 10,000 North Korean soldiers have been deployed to Kursk to aid the Russian troops.

Russia’s FSB Arrests German Man for Alleged Sabotage of Energy Infrastructure in Kaliningrad:

Russian law enforcement authorities in the Kaliningrad region arrested a German citizen on charges of sabotaging energy facilities, the FSB security service announced Wednesday.

The man, identified as 56-year-old Nikolai Gaiduk, was accused of being involved in a March 2024 explosion at a gas distribution station in Kaliningrad, a Russian exclave bordered by Poland and Lithuania.

Gaiduk, a resident of Hamburg, was detained at a Kaliningrad border crossing upon returning to the region, allegedly to "organize acts of sabotage on local energy infrastructure," the FSB said in a statement reported by news agencies.

Authorities claimed to have seized half a liter of explosive material concealed in a shampoo bottle inside Gaiduk's car. The FSB alleged that he had received the explosives and instructions for the attack from a Ukrainian citizen living in Hamburg.

Since the start of Russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, Russian authorities have increasingly charged individuals with crimes such as sabotage, treason and terrorism.

MOSCOW (Sputnik) - Nikolai Gaiduk, a German citizen, was taken into custody while crossing into Russia's Kaliningrad region from Poland to carry out acts of sabotage against the region's energy infrastructure, Russia's Federal Security Service (FSB) said on Wednesday.

"N. Gaiduk was detained while crossing again from Poland into the Kaliningrad region to conduct acts of sabotage against energy objects. After his car, a Ford Focus was inspected... 16.9 ounces of liquid explosives were seized," the FSB said, adding that the detainee, born in 1967, is a resident of Hamburg.

A criminal case has been opened against Gaiduk on charges of committing a terrorist act (https://sputnikglobe.com/20241028/fsb-finds-us-airborne-tattoo-on-body-of-ukrainian-saboteur-in-russias-bryansk-1120709196.html) and smuggling explosives, the federal security agency said, adding that he is currently in custody.

"At the moment, measures are being taken to identify and prosecute persons who assisted N. Gaiduk in carrying out illegal activities," the FSB said in a statement.

The detainee was also involved in an explosion at a gas distribution station in Kaliningrad in March 2024, when he attempted to use a homemade explosive device to blow up a low-pressure pipe at the station in question, the statement said.

"It was determined that the order for staging the explosion, along with military bomb components, was received by Gaiduk from Alexander Zhorov, a Ukrainian citizen born in 1967 who resides in Hamburg under a German residence permit," the report added.

MOSCOW, Nov 20 (Reuters) - Russia has detained a German citizen on suspicion of explosives-smuggling and terrorism, accusing him of blowing up a pipe at a gas distribution station, the Federal Security Service (FSB) said on Wednesday.

The FSB said the man, identified as Nikolai Gaiduk, had been involved in the attack in Russia's Kaliningrad Baltic Sea exclave in March, using a home-made bomb.
It said he was arrested during a subsequent attempt to enter Kaliningrad from Poland, when authorities searched his car and found 0.5 litres of liquid explosive.

The FSB said Gaiduk was born in 1967 and lives in Hamburg. It accused him of acting on the instructions of a Ukrainian man also living in the north German city.

"Currently, measures are being taken to identify and bring to justice the persons who assisted Gaiduk ... in carrying out illegal activities," the agency said.

A German Foreign Ministry spokesperson said the consulate general in St Petersberg was in contact with Russian authorities and had offered consular assistance to the man, adding that the arrest had taken place in October.

The spokesperson cited the threat situation for foreign nationals in Russia when asked about the delay between when the arrest took place and when it was reported.
"In principle, we have to take note of the fact that there is an atmosphere of intimidation and fear in Russia, which can also lead to arbitrary arrests," said the spokesperson.

According to Russia's emergencies ministry, the pipe explosion in March caused a fire but there were no casualties.

From 11 month ago...

It can be lode nuclear or "conventional explosives"

at so extreme speed it create something like a plasma shield around where no detection is possible (radars,etc)

Only conventional armed con destroy any installation on the planet trough the tremendous kinetic force created from speed!

On 4:50 mark the commentator say that this weapon for Russia secure the parity with U.S. Because this video is for the Anglo world this term is just an amiability... the parity is no more...Russia has already the superiority!
the true is that this weapon can Russia give the chance for first strike ,decapitation and
the Amerikans will never know what strike them! Or if Russia is compassionate only strike
radar installations/controls, make them blind ... but we know how cowboys respond...

This is not the case. As of today the UK hasn't been prepared and our erstwhile Prime Minister is in Brazil on a G20 jolly. Just yesterday Tobias Ellwood (former Conservative MP) said on GB News that Putin's nuclear threats were merely "rhetoric" They're all in denial, which is totally mystifying.

Member of Dutch 🇳🇱 Parliament Ralf Dekker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralf_Dekker) discusses the budget of the Dutch 🇳🇱 Ministry of Foreign Affairs, focusing on contributions to supranational institutions like the EU 🇪🇺 and NATO.
They describe the budget as lacking a clear Dutch 🇳🇱 policy and suggest that the Netherlands is a minor player in international commitments.
The most significant issue highlighted is the conflict in Ukraine and the war with Russia 🇷🇺, framed as a struggle against an "aggressive dictator", Vladimir Putin (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118635-The-Putin-Thread).
The speaker criticizes the mainstream narrative portraying Russia's invasion of Ukraine as "unprovoked", arguing it overlooks historical context and the suffering of ethnic Russians 🇷🇺 in Eastern Ukraine.
They suggest that Western involvement, including significant financial support for Ukraine, has distorted the situation.
Concerns are raised about the dangers of siding with Ukraine against Russia 🇷🇺, particularly regarding Russia's nuclear arsenal and the lack of diplomacy in addressing the conflict.
The speaker asserts that the West has manipulated the situation for geopolitical gains, complicating the conflict further.
They criticize mainstream media for failing to understand Russia's intentions in the ongoing war, suggesting a pervasive fear of Russia 🇷🇺 lacks justification.
The speaker calls for a reevaluation of Dutch 🇳🇱 foreign policy, advocating for de-escalation and improved relations with Russia 🇷🇺 instead of following the U.S. 🇺🇸 narrative.
They emphasize the need for independent thought in foreign policy and encourage the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to promote new ideas.

Member of Dutch 🇳🇱 Parliament Ralf Dekker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralf_Dekker) discusses the budget of the Dutch 🇳🇱 Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which primarily focuses on contributions to supranational institutions like the EU 🇪🇺 and NATO. They describe this budget as lacking a clear Dutch 🇳🇱 policy and suggest that the Netherlands 🇳🇱 is merely a small player in ongoing international commitments, echoing the consensus led by major powers like Germany 🇩🇪, France 🇫🇷, the UK 🇬🇧, and the US 🇺🇸. The speaker emphasizes that the most significant issue is the conflict in Ukraine and the war with Russia 🇷🇺 , framing it as a struggle against an aggressive dictator, Vladimir Putin (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118635-The-Putin-Thread), who aims to restore the Soviet Union. They criticize the mainstream narrative that portrays Russia's invasion of Ukraine as unprovoked, arguing that it overlooks the historical context and the suffering of ethnic Russians in Eastern Ukraine. The speaker suggests that Western involvement, including significant financial support for Ukraine and military preparations against Russia 🇷🇺 , has distorted the situation. They express concerns about the dangers of siding with Ukraine against Russia 🇷🇺 , highlighting the risks posed by Russia's nuclear arsenal and questioning the lack of diplomacy in addressing the conflict. The speaker concludes by asserting that the West has manipulated the situation for geopolitical gains, further complicating the conflict.

Mainstream media for failing to understand Russia's intentions in the ongoing war, suggesting that there is a pervasive fear of Russia 🇷🇺 that lacks justification, especially after the Soviet Union's collapse in 1991. They argue that Western media and think tanks act as mouthpieces for NATO, relying on information from Ukrainian sources rather than independent analysis. The speaker highlights that Russia's military objectives are to protect its population and ensure Ukraine remains neutral and disarmed.

They assert that an agreement was proposed in 2022 to avoid conflict, which was discouraged by NATO, leading to the current war. The speaker disputes claims about Russian military shortcomings, stating that Russia has superior munitions production and that the reported losses on both sides are exaggerated. They note that recent U.S. decisions have allowed Ukraine to attack Russian 🇷🇺 territory, which they view as a dangerous escalation. The speaker calls for a reevaluation of Dutch foreign policy, advocating for de-escalation and improved relations with Russia 🇷🇺 instead of following the U.S. narrative. They suggest that the Netherlands 🇳🇱 should focus on strengthening ties with Germany 🇩🇪 and consider alternative alliances rather than solely aligning with NATO. The speaker believes that blindly following the Atlantic consensus has led to suffering and urges for independent thought in foreign policy.

The situational sketch of the war in Ukraine that has been presented to us is a complete distortion of reality. This was stated by Member of Parliament Ralf Dekker, who is temporarily replacing Pepijn van Houwelingen due to paternity leave, in the House on Wednesday.

He pointed out that Ukraine's eastern provinces, largely inhabited by ethnic Russians 🇷🇺, were systematically repressed and bombarded from western Ukraine after the 2014 Maidan coup with Western help, resulting in many thousands of civilian casualties.

“Russia has drawn attention to this in every conceivable way and has even concluded treaties about it with Ukraine, France 🇫🇷 and Germany 🇩🇪 via the UN. These were violated and later laughed off by Merkel and Hollande as a delaying tactic to give Ukraine the opportunity to arm itself against Russia. Deception!” according to Dekker.


Geared up as a Western battering ram against Russia

This violation of treaties and agreements by the West has been a recurring pattern since the early nineties. Seen in that light, there is absolutely no question of an unprovoked attack on a sovereign state . There was indeed a concrete and urgent reason. Tens of thousands of people were killed with shelling , he explained.
Before the Maidan coup, the United States invested billions in building democracy in Ukraine, as John McCain and Victoria Nuland proudly stated at the time. In fact, Ukraine was already being prepared as a Western battering ram against Russia at the time. The country was turned into a heavily armed fortress. Twelve fully equipped CIA spy posts, Forward Operating Bases , were set up on the Russian border. The country was in fact completely governed by the US, certainly after 2014. The appointment and dismissal of key figures in the judiciary was also directly influenced by the United States, as evidenced by the forced dismissal of the prosecutor in the Burisma case, Dekker listed.

“The picture that emerges is one of years of trying to weaken Russia through intimidation, cunning and deceit, driving a wedge between the EU countries and Russia and largely abusing Ukraine for this geopolitical goal. Blowing up the Nord Stream pipeline also fits into that picture. Initially, this action was blamed on Russia, but no one believed the absurdity. Recently, in an unguarded moment, Ms Kaja Kallas, the new EU foreign affairs representative, suggested that Russia should actually be divided into a large number of separate countries; regime change, with a scenario of balkanisation. Isn't that actually the underlying goal of the West, so that it can then exploit the natural resources? Isn't it completely understandable that Russia has serious problems with this?”


Extreme risky

“It is astonishing that even in the regular media no attempt is made to seriously fathom Russia’s intention with this war. For decades, actually since my early youth, the adage has been that the Russians, if it were up to them, would prefer to own the entire continent up to the North Sea. A Russian in the kitchen; the Halbe Zijlstra perspective. This Russophobia (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118563-Russophobia-why-do-so-many-people-in-the-west-hate-and-fear-Russia) is unfounded and incomprehensible, especially after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. It is striking that the Western media and the well-known think tanks function entirely as mouthpieces for NATO, which in turn seems to obtain its information directly from the Ukrainian services. For an independent analysis we are dependent on social media and podcasts from freethinkers who have their own sources on site and who, with large audiences, live from subscriptions and donations. Well-known names here include Jeffrey Sachs, John Mearsheimer, Douglas Macgregor, Jacques Baud, The Duran, Scott Ritter, Brian Berletic, Gilbert Doctorow, the Military Channel and many more.”

Dekker stressed that the use of long-range missiles for attacks on Russian territory is a cynical move by the current US President Biden to poison the starting position for the new president, Trump, by new escalation. “Extremely risky.”


Alienated and Dangerous

In his view, strengthening defence and setting up a European army to counter the threat from Russia and possibly also China is completely out of touch and dangerous.
“For us, the Dutch interest means: pushing for de-escalation, easing the situation and trying to restore relations with Russia, thinking about our own foreign policy in the long term instead of simply following the international consensus.”

rQ05xyjfh6s
Member of Dutch 🇳🇱 Parliament Ralf Dekker (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralf_Dekker) representing Forum for Democracy (FVD), has expressed a critical view regarding Dutch foreign policy, particularly in relation to the ongoing conflict in Ukraine. Here are the key points from his discourse:


01. Criticism of Dutch 🇳🇱 Foreign Policy and Budget:

Dekker argues that the Dutch Ministry of Foreign Affairs' budget lacks a coherent Dutch policy, portraying the Netherlands as a minor player in international affairs, heavily influenced by larger Western powers like the US, Germany, France, and the UK.


02. Ukraine Conflict:

He frames the conflict as not merely an unprovoked aggression by Russia but a response to prolonged provocations and violations of agreements by Western powers. Dekker highlights the suffering of ethnic Russians in Eastern Ukraine post-Maidan coup in 2014, suggesting that this context has been largely ignored by mainstream narratives.


03. Western Involvement:

The involvement of Western countries, including financial and military support to Ukraine, is seen by Dekker as distorting the conflict for geopolitical gain. He criticizes the narrative pushed by NATO and Western media, which he believes is biased and lacks independent analysis.


04. Nuclear Threat and Diplomacy:

He points out the escalation risks, especially concerning Russia's nuclear capabilities, and laments the lack of diplomatic efforts to resolve the conflict, viewing the current approach as dangerous.


05. Media and Information:

Dekker criticizes Western media for acting as mouthpieces for NATO, often relying on Ukrainian sources rather than seeking balanced or independent perspectives. He suggests that true insights into the conflict are found in alternative media channels.


06. Call for Independent Foreign Policy:

He advocates for the Netherlands to pursue a more independent foreign policy, focusing on de-escalation, improving relations with Russia, and not simply adhering to the Atlantic consensus. This includes a suggestion to strengthen ties with countries like Germany and consider alternative alliances.


07. Geopolitical Manipulation:

Dekker accuses the West of using Ukraine as a "battering ram" against Russia, with actions like the preparation of Ukraine as a military fortress and the influence in Ukrainian governance by the US illustrating this manipulation.


08. Future Considerations:
He warns against the militarization of Europe in response to perceived threats from Russia or China, seeing it as out of touch with Dutch 🇳🇱 interests, which should focus on peace, diplomacy, and independent policy-making.

Dekker's perspective challenges the mainstream Western narrative, urging for a reevaluation of how foreign policy is conducted, with an emphasis on understanding historical contexts, promoting diplomacy, and fostering an independent Dutch 🇳🇱 voice in international relations. His views reflect a broader skepticism of current geopolitical alignments and call for a more nuanced approach to international conflicts.

Sid Lukkassen – The Great Geopolitical Treatise

In recent decades, policies in Europe have been dominated by the ‘Hegemony of Virtue Signaling’. This means that the ‘social construction’ of desirable narratives overshadows and suppresses the need to account for objective geopolitical realities. This process involves the ongoing ideological framing of events which oversimplifies complex international dynamics, often casting Russia as a monolithic antagonist and NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) as a benign force for democracy. This framing, deeply rooted in postmodern political theory, has led to a series of self-imposed rhetorical traps which obscure the strategic challenges facing Europe and its allies.


The Metrosexual Superpower

In an article called ‘The Power of War: Why Europe Needs it’, written in 2008 for Clingendael, a Dutch 🇳🇱 geopolitical research center, Peter van Ham argued that Europe has become a “metrosexual superpower”. He writes about the “sissification” of European military doctrine. The article concluded that Europe considers itself a “postmodern, Kantian space”, where ideals such as tolerance, human rights and fighting poverty prevail over Realpolitik – humanitarian intentions trump geopolitical consequences. We wonder whether Van Ham would publish the same claims today, given that the established elites in Europe moved even further towards the radical left. Whoever wants to work as a military analyst at a think tank is required to embrace the rainbow-ideology of the establishment.

Furthermore, whatever is left of Western European military power will soon collapse, given that the actual backbone of an effective military – made up of masculine men with conservative patriotic persuasions on a high-testosterone diet – collides with the woke-ideology of WEF-proscribed climate friendly bug powder and LGBTQ inclusivity. Hence, there are videos in circulation that contrast the Dutch 🇳🇱 and Russian militaries. While Dutch 🇳🇱 male soldiers are practicing with menstruation cramp simulators to gain an understanding of female soldiers, Russian recruitment videos depict soldiers getting shelled in trenches while drawing courage from Christian prayer cards.

As becomes clear from the pressure put upon member states such as Hungary, the EU tends to simplify issues into binary moral imperatives. By framing European integration as an expression of shared liberal democratic values, the EU has created a situation where opposing viewpoints are de-legitimised as “populism” or “nationalism.” This moral framing deters member states from questioning EU expansion or NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)’s military interventions, even when these actions might not align with their national interests.

Historically, the EU has adopted emotionally charged language to present itself as the primary custodian of liberal democracy. Terms such as an “ever-closer Union” and a “European way of life” dominate the discourse: this directly or indirectly marks dissenting positions as backward and hostile to Europe’s unity. By using these concepts to uphold the EU’s legitimacy, European leaders have maneuvered around domestic and international complexities, ensuring conformity through moral coercion. Those questioning the scope of NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)’s ambitions, for instance, are often shamed into silence, labeled as appeasers or framed as enablers of authoritarian regimes.


NATO expands while Europe retreats from Strategic Rationality

After the collapse of the Soviet Union, many Western leaders – including former U.S. President Bill Clinton – foresaw the risks of NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) expansion in re-dividing Europe. Clinton, along with intellectuals like George Kennan, cautioned that the inclusion of Eastern European states in NATO might revive Cold War tensions, positioning Russia as a perennial outsider in European affairs. Nevertheless, NATO’s expansion proceeded while Russia was too weakened by internal reorganizations to pose a significant threat.

NATO’s expansion resulted in a re-balkanised Europe, particularly Ukraine, as a contested region that is now a combat zone. Ukraine’s movement toward NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) – despite limited public support for full membership as also the Dutch 🇳🇱 Ukraine Referendum signified – sparked the current conflict, highlighting the disconnect between moral rhetoric and on-the-ground realities. Yet Western narratives portray this expansion as a purely positive-sum integration effort, denying its security impact on Russia and misconstruing Russia’s reaction as an outdated realpolitik mentality. The war in Ukraine is basically an eschatological confrontation between Western cosmopolitan hypermorality and Eurasian autocratic cynicism which offers no chance for a diplomatic resolution unless, maybe, Trump gets elected as the new US President but we will have to find out.

The war in Ukraine reveals the deeper ideological fixation within European political elites. Rational discourse – which would address the realistic outcomes of provoking a nuclear power like Russia – has given way to performative displays of moral superiority. Kicking empty beehives by making grandiose virtue signaling statements on LGBTQ+ acceptance and morality, until one day a beehive was kicked that turned out to contain actual bees and even Russian soldiers. European leaders are acting within an ideological echo chamber, reinforced by the media which they control through speech regulation codes. This makes it impossible to discuss pragmatic considerations instead of abstract utopian ideals.

Sadly, the war only reinforces the echo chambering and speech censorship further, as EU citizens are now banned from accessing Russian media and hearing their take on the war. The progressive elites truly feel embattled by populists and that this entitles them to far-reaching speech restrictions. Those often do not even need to pass democratic scrutiny, as they come into being through backdoor deals with Big Tech CEOs. A democracy presupposes that a voter can hear media from different sides and is then able to make a balanced, reasonable judgment about which party and candidate best represent him or her in office. But at the same time, these ‘democrats’ seem to assume that citizens who access Russian media, are immediately turned into Kremlin-controlled trolls.

It all coalesces into a reality where the West is ill-prepared for the emerging coalition of anti-Western powers. And how can we understand or come to a compromise with the powers that oppose us if our citizens are shielded from their perspectives? Russia’s alliance-building efforts with North Korea, China, and Iran are seen by some as symbolic rather than pragmatic; nevertheless, they also represent a modern-day revival of the coalition that once challenged the Western Roman Empire. It bears thinking about, what it means for the West to have driven Russia deeper into China’s arms (https://tpo.nl/2016/03/18/begrijpen-wij-rusland/).

A case could be made that the narrative of North Korean soldiers fighting for Russia could be a propaganda tool rather than a documented fact, given that similar claims (https://www.newsweek.com/fact-check-north-korea-sending-100k-soldiers-fight-against-ukraine-1731723) were made in 2022. While such alliances may not materialise in literal terms, the West’s response to them could generate self-fulfilling prophecies of increased militarization and polarised alliances. The paradox of reacting to hypothetical threats, as theorised by the philosopher Brian Massumi, brings an ontopower-effect into play: a situation where Western militaries prepare for imagined scenarios, inadvertently creating the very conditions they aim to prevent.

The reliance on moralistic language has led Western political elites to reject traditional diplomatic efforts in favour of ‘moral clarity’. Diplomacy – once central to mitigating conflict – has become a tool for ideological instruction, where NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) and the EU view other nations as students to be socially moulded rather than treated as equal negotiating partners. This code of conduct, which envisions NATO and the EU as forces for progress and inclusivity without equal counterpart, kills any hope of mutual understanding and crisis de-escalation.

This approach to diplomacy portrays neutrality as immoral, conflating non-alignment with tacit approval of authoritarianism. Thus, states that once provided neutral zones between NATO and Russia – crucial for stability – have been systematically diminished. Mark Rutte’s first act as NATO Chair (https://ongehoordnederland.tv/243221/tv-programmas/ongehoord-nieuws-191-rutte-begint-bij-navo-globalistisch-vn-pact-en-rechtse-zegen-oostenrijk/), was saying that Ukraine should become a full-fledged member. Sweden 🇸🇪 and Finland’s 🇫🇮 recent membership bids underscore this movement, leaving fewer states positioned to mediate future European conflicts. The same could happen in Asia, with South Korea becoming more closely involved with NATO – these alliances eerily mimic the run-up to the First World War.


Toward a Rational Policy Redirection

The Western fixation on maintaining ideological purity has dire economic consequences. Europe’s commitment to sanctions on Russian energy, and moral obligations to uphold stringent climate goals, has led to industrial exodus and rising energy costs. The destruction of the Nord Stream pipelines further exacerbates Europe’s reliance on energy imports from intermediaries, notably India, while eroding its industrial competitiveness. Also bear in mind that the oil is necessary to refine complex plastics, that the German 🇩🇪 industry needs, not only for consumer production but also for war production. Of course Russia was eager to accept the European money for its oil, yet even Putin commented that weakening German 🇩🇪 industrial production by cutting off Nord Stream is not in the long term interest of Ukraine.

The only logical explanation for the destruction of Nord Stream is that the US wants a bipolar world order where Europe cannot develop economically as a force independent of the US – this is also the doctrine laid out by the influential geostrategist George Friedman, when speaking for Stratfor. He declared (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QeLu_yyz3tc#t=1267) that the American geopolitical interests are challenged once German 🇩🇪 capital and technology merge with Russian manpower and resources. Friedman even stated this would mean the US loses its global hegemony.

Despite these events, cosmopolitan and left-liberal narratives around moral integrity continue to prevent a realistic assessment of practical reality. Europe’s path forward requires that we abandon the ideological rhetoric that clouds strategic thinking. Acknowledging NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)’s role in triggering the Ukraine crisis would be an important step toward a balanced foreign policy, prioritizing the continent’s long-term viability over transient ideological wins.

Restoring Europe’s economic competitiveness and securing its strategic interests will require critically rethinking EU-policies. Unless we want a bipolar world order split between China and the US, where European states will be sacrificed as pawns whilst the conflict escalates, it is ultimately in our interest to reintegrate Russia as a European partner. However, it is questionable whether this is even possible, considering that the Russian so-called ‘Special Military Operation’ has already caused so many deep-seated grievances. Restoring Nord Stream is also easier said than done, while the cultural and political autonomy of West-Europe is meanwhile being penetrated by Islamic nations – a situation accelerated by demographic developments and the conflict between Israel and Palestinians. All things considered: Winter is coming, for the Europeans. Or – even more prophetically: Flee while you can!

If the European political class remains entrenched in its current stance – which it probably will, given that this ideological in-group affiliation is the source of their access to status, wealth and potential partners who seek to rise socially and are susceptible to those advantages – the ‘end of history’ will be quite different than initially imagined. Europe must transcend its ideological echo chambers and reconsider Cold War-era frameworks if it hopes to maintain peace and prosperity in the nearby future. Whether European leaders have the political imagination and courage to pursue this path remains – putting it mildly – to be seen…

--o-O-o--

Sid Lukkassen's critique titled “The Great Geopolitical Treatise” delves into the strategic and ideological shortcomings of contemporary European foreign policy, particularly in relation to the conflict with Russia over Ukraine. Here are the main themes:


01. Hegemony of Virtue Signaling:

Lukkassen argues that European policy has been overtaken by a need to signal moral virtues, which has led to an oversimplification of complex geopolitical dynamics. This has positioned Russia as an antagonist in a narrative that often lacks nuance, while NATO is portrayed as a force for democracy without critically examining its actions or the repercussions.


02. The Metrosexual Superpower:

He references Peter van Ham's concept of Europe as a "metrosexual superpower," suggesting a shift towards ideals over practical geopolitical strategy. The European military's focus on inclusivity and humanitarian goals is seen as detrimental to building a robust, combat-ready force. This is contrasted with the more traditional, combat-focused depiction of the Russian military.


03. Narrative Simplification by the EU:

The EU's approach to integration and policy enforcement is criticized for reducing complex issues to simple moral dichotomies, thereby delegitimizing dissenting views or national interests that differ from the EU's liberal democratic framework. This moral framing discourages questioning of NATO's expansion or the EU's policies.


04. NATO Expansion and Its Consequences:

The expansion of NATO, especially into Eastern Europe, is seen as a rekindling of Cold War animosities, ignoring the security concerns of Russia. This has led to the current conflict in Ukraine, which Lukkassen describes as an ideological clash between Western morality and Eurasian cynicism, with little room for diplomatic resolution.


05. Ideological Echo Chambers:

European leaders are accused of operating within ideological bubbles that preclude rational discourse about the implications of antagonizing a nuclear power like Russia. The war has intensified these echo chambers, with restrictions on Russian media access in the EU, which Lukkassen sees as a move towards censorship rather than fostering informed democratic debate.


06. Economic and Strategic Missteps:

The economic fallout from policies driven by moral rhetoric, such as sanctions on Russian energy and commitment to stringent climate goals, is highlighted as leading Europe towards industrial decline. The destruction of Nord Stream pipelines is cited as an example of how these policies might serve US interests over European ones, potentially weakening Europe for geopolitical reasons.


07. Call for Policy Redirection:

Lukkassen advocates for a European policy shift towards pragmatism, suggesting that acknowledging NATO's role in the Ukraine crisis could lead to a more balanced foreign policy. He emphasizes the need for Europe to maintain its economic competitiveness and strategic autonomy, potentially by re-engaging with Russia diplomatically.


08.Future Scenarios:

He warns of a bipolar world order dominated by the US and China, where Europe could lose its sovereignty unless it reevaluates its stance. However, he questions the feasibility of such a shift given the deep-seated ideological commitments of the European political class.



Lukkassen's treatise calls for a reassessment of Europe's foreign policy, urging a move away from ideological posturing towards a more pragmatic and self-interested approach. This would involve reconsidering alliances, military strategies, and economic policies in light of real geopolitical threats rather than abstract moral victories. The critique reflects a concern for Europe's future in a world where ideological rigidity might blind it to the necessities of survival and influence in global politics.

From Simplicius via his Substack (https://simplicius76.substack.com/p/zelenskys-atacms-gambit-nuclear-red):

[...]
[Russia's revised nuclear] doctrine of course allows Russia to respond with nuclear use against overwhelming air attacks or attacks from a proxy aided in large part by a major nuclear adversary.
[...]
But that won'tt happen. There'll be no 'overwhelming' air or missile attacks that could threaten Russia in any way.

The danger lies in a possible mistake (a software malfunction or a human error), and as best I know no-one is talking about this. These events have happened several times in the past, and constitute the greatest possibility of a nuclear launch automatically followed by a massive nuclear response. Do see the Avalon thread about Annie Jacobsen's research (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?122878-Nuclear-War-Annie-Jacobsen) into the topic, including how easily such a mistake could happen.

~~~

Oooof. AT THE EXACT MOMENT I was writing this, Jeffrey Sachs said precisely the same thing in this video from yesterday (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nC0CYs7yj8), which I was listening to now, referencing Annie Jacobsen's book.

The Russian Governor of Kursk claims two missiles entered its airspace and both were intercepted, but did not specify which type of missiles. The Russian military journalist, 'Two Majors', says 12 Storm Shadows were in fact used. Ukraine has neither confirmed nor denied.

‼️🇺🇦🏴‍☠️The Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) are experiencing an acute shortage of resources and experienced commanders, and they are increasingly being encircled, according to the New York Times.

▪️Servicemen reported that in some sections of the front, Russian forces outnumber them by more than six times, and they frequently face critical situations, such as encirclement and supply shortages.
➖”Even if a position is held, supplies—ammunition and provisions—eventually run out. Any vehicle attempting to reach these positions will be ambushed. We constantly find ourselves in such difficult situations,” lamented Vyacheslav, the commander of a UAV unit.

▪️UAF servicemen also noted a noticeable decrease in their retaliatory fire over recent weeks. One drone operator stated, “You can hardly hear HIMARS anymore; they’re just not there.”

Ukrainian military sources report that a swarm of Russian long range TU-160 and TU-95 bombers are about to launch a barrage of missiles at UkraineThis is one to watch carefully. These heavy Russian missile strikes happen regularly (maybe the heaviest of all just a few days ago), but this one will be Russia's specific response to the ATACMS and Storm Shadow strikes into their own territory.

The US and NATO will be watching carefully as well to see to what extent Putin is (or is not) 'bluffing'. This won't be a nuclear strike, of course, but it might nonetheless be a devastating one. It also has to be just possible that the targets might not be confined to Ukraine, and until the missiles are released from the bombers and then tracked their actual targets can't be known.

‼️🇷🇺🏴‍☠️ Live Assault: Our troops are clearing settlements in the Kurakhovo direction

▪️ Assault units of a separate Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade from the "South" group of forces continue to destroy Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) strongholds and clear settlements in the Kurakhovo direction. Every step of the fighters is closely monitored by their commander.

▪️ Using the "Wolf Hunt" tactic, the assault troops split into small groups and encircle the enemy, driving them into confined spaces. The encirclement gradually tightens, leaving UAF militants no chance to hold their fortified areas and reinforced underground positions, forcing them to surrender.

▪️ During the tasks of liberating settlements, the assault units receive fire support from artillery, mortars, tanks, strike and reconnaissance drones, and electronic warfare systems. Throughout the combat operations, the commander directs the battle in real-time from a command post, maintaining communication with the troops.

🇺🇦🏳️'Some of us were not allowed to take up arms': AFU POW talks about militants with mental disorders

AFU serviceman Aleksandr Rafalyuk, who surrendered in the Kursk region, said that he had met servicemen with mental disorders who were not allowed by their commanders to take up arms.

'Recruiters came to my work and took us away. There were three of us, and all three of us were taken away. We were sent to a training ground in Rovno. We were trained by former Ukrainian soldiers. Well, they were still in the military, but they were written off. Some of us were not allowed to take up arms, probably because of mental disorders. There were a few people who were not allowed to take up arms,' he said.

I doubt Putin is bluffing, I expect him to respond any moment now, it will be intense. He's too smart to use nuclear weapons at this time in my opinion, but he will let his "message" be known.

What I find most astonishing is the US just actually attacked Russia without congressional approval and no one in government is saying much. It goes to show how deeply diseased the house and senate are with scumbag demonic psychopaths. Any other president doing this would of been ripped apart. This is way different than sending a missile or two into Syria or Yemen.

These missiles and US troops to control these missiles were already in place. Ukraine can not just unload and launch these themselves.

I think the next thing we'll see is either Israel or the US hit some Russian targets in Syria and possibly kill some Russians.

It's quite obvious the bear is being poked with a hot iron....

Zakharova stated that Ukraine is no longer of value to the West.

The flight of Western embassies from Kyiv was commented on by the official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, during an interview with “KP.”

•Maria Vladimirovna, the embassies of the U.S., Spain, Italy, and Greece are fleeing Kyiv. The last time this happened was in February 2022. And this is only the first wave - others are following the U.S. in quick succession. The reason is simple. Rumors are spreading across Europe: “Kyiv may soon face a massive strike.” So, our foreign “former partners,” in authorizing the use of long-range ATACMS, fully understood what they were condemning Ukraine to? The Ukrainian people? And yet they still provided the weapons - condemning them to retaliatory strikes? How can you comment on such a level of cynicism and inhumanity?

•This proves that Ukraine and Ukrainians are just a tool for the West, - the diplomat said in an interview with “Komsomolskaya Pravda.” - And after that tool broke, it no longer holds any value.

Let us remind you that, according to experts, one of four possible responses to the use of long-range weapons may involve strikes on targets in Ukraine that Russia has previously spared. These include heating networks, communications, and even administrative buildings in Kyiv, up to and including the complex on Bankova Street.

Biden committing ‘unconstitutional аct of war’ – US lawmaker
Allowing Ukraine use American missiles against Russia is an impeachable act, Congressman Thomas Massie has claimed

President Joe Biden has violated the US Constitution and ought to be impeached for permitting Ukraine to fire American-supplied long-range missiles into Russia, Congressman Thomas Massie has said.

Multiple US outlets reported over the weekend that Biden had lifted the restrictions on Kiev’s use of US-supplied rockets. While the White House has neither confirmed nor denied the news officially, a volley of missiles was fired at Russia’s Bryansk Region early on Tuesday.

“By authorizing long range missiles to strike inside Russia, Biden is committing an unconstitutional Act of War that endangers the lives of all US citizens,” Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, posted on X (formerly Twitter) on Monday.

“This is an impeachable offense, but the reality is he’s an emasculated puppet of a deep state,” he added.

According to anonymous officials who spoke to the media, the US permission would “mostly” apply to the Kursk Region of Russia, which Ukraine invaded in August. The decision was reportedly triggered by the Ukrainian claim that 10,000 North Korean soldiers have been deployed to Kursk to aid the Russian troops.
(continued)

Biden is senile in end stadium... he can´t decide stay in place go to left or right or anything at all !

The REAL problem is who or what is behind moving the strings! and whoever or what ever is don't have any good vibes what so ever! and that is chilling for me ...

Say he is impeached, then what? the kamala come or worse? everything in this "Administration" is dark as it gets , dark vibes... and whatever that "it" is , is longing for WAR!

Before the new Admin come there is time for 3,4,and 5 WW ! or maybe that's the plan : NO new Admin at all! interesting time ,if we survive until February! Creator help us...

I was born in 1960, so as a child it really all seemed somewhat surreal to me. If memory serves me correct most of us used to joke about 'put your head between your legs and kiss your ass goodbye' kind of humour.

Over an hour in now, and I do HIGHLY recommend this. :highfive:

Some more movie references. Very relevant and not at all trivial, as the themes are well-thought out and instructive (and extremely well-produced and acted, too.)


Fail Safe (both versions, 1964 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Sound_of_Thunder_(film)) and 2000 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fail_Safe_(2000_film))), about a nuclear strike against Moscow caused by a system error.
Crimson Tide (1995 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crimson_Tide_(film))), about a mutiny on a US nuclear submarine over whether or not to launch missiles against Russia after a malfunction leaves the launch order ambiguous.
The Sum of All Fears (2002 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sum_of_All_Fears_(film))), about a rogue nuke suitcase bomb that the US has assumed Russia is responsible for.
The War Game (1966) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_War_Game) and Threads (1984 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Threads_(1984_film))), considered by many as the two most terrifying and realistic docudramas ever made.




I watched: "The Day After" Movie (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Day_After) at school in 1984 when I was 18 years old, I remember it had a huge impact on me and my other classmates:

If I am correct:

When someone says: "Radius of 9 Kilometers aka 5.6 Miles" you have to double that size that makes it 18 km/11.2 Miles and that is just 1 point to another point on a 2D map!

What you see in the video below is not "just 1 point to another point on the map" but "squared"! >>> 18 Km squared is alt least an impact of 324 Km/201 Miles area! >>> not counting the aftermath of the surrounding area outside the zone of impact!... Aftermath like: the enormous shockwave & super heat wave affecting 40 Km/24.85 Miles squared and the radiation fall out of contaminated particles coming down, making a huge area at least 100Km/62 Miles squared unlivable for centuries!

And that was a Russian made weapon, ready for use in 1961 ... 63 years ago! ... Let that sink in for a moment!

This is a more critical situation than most can comprehend. I agree with a lot of what Macgregor is saying.

One thing Macgregor didn't say though is what the Biden Administration and those pulling the strings have done to the America people relating to escalating the war with Russia. The Biden Administration basically gave the majority of the American population who voted against these types of things a couple weeks ago the middle finger. The Biden administration just told the American people that they have no word in this insane decision and that their lives are meaningless!!!!!!!

THIS IS BS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The arrogance and insanity of these psychopathic bastards is beyond out of line. They need to be stopped, but obviously, those in DC don't give a damn. I'm pissed.

January 20th is very likely too far away and these demonic psychopaths know this. The only chance we really have from being vaporized is for Russia to restrain themselves from taking the bait. As it looks to me this will be very costly for Russia to do but it may be the only thing to prevent WW3 right now.

The world being vaporized right now is the most serious matter on the table right now yet those in DC are bitching about ridiculous lies of Tulsi being a Russian assett or Matt gates trafficking children?????????? WTF???????????

I've never seen so much stupidity in my life. Trump needs to verbally get out in front of this, and soon. There are no sane adults in the room other than him and several of those around him.

[SilentFeathers]

UK shoots 12 missiles into Russia. These psychopathic demons are surely trying to provoke Russia in to a response.

This video talks about it.

Everyone thinks this is completely insane except for the lunatics doing it.

This isn't gonna turn out well unless someone stands up against these psychopaths and stops them somehow. Russia isn't going to just stand around and let several NATO countries bomb their homeland.

I have a feeling Russia is going to respond and it won't be pretty.

It's becoming obvious that the Demoncrats, deep state, and globablists elite are willing and ready to destroy this planet and kill off humanity.

"Ido Vock
BBC News
Published 18 November 2024
Updated 20 November 2024

For the first time, Ukraine has fired US-supplied longer-range missiles at a target inside Russian territory.

Until now, Washington had refused to allow strikes on Russian territory with Atacms missiles because it feared they would escalate the war - but in the past few days, the US has changed its stance.

Here's what we know about the Atacms missile system.

Why has the US allowed Ukraine to use long-range missiles inside Russia?
Ukraine has been using Atacms on Russian targets in occupied Ukrainian territory for more than a year.

American munitions and hardware are already being used inside Russia's Kursk border region.

But the US had never allowed Kyiv to use the Atacms inside Russia – until now.

Ukraine had argued that not being allowed to use such weapons inside Russia was like being asked to fight with one hand tied behind its back.

The change in policy reportedly comes in response to the recent arrival of North Korean troops to support Russia in the Kursk region, where Ukraine has occupied territory since August.

Also, Donald Trump’s imminent return to the White House is raising fears over the future of US support for Ukraine, and President Biden is apparently keen to do all he can to help in the little time he has left in office.

Strengthening Ukraine's hand militarily – so the thinking goes - could grant Ukraine leverage in any peace talks that may lie ahead.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has not yet confirmed the move. But he said on Sunday: "Strikes are not made with words ... The missiles will speak for themselves."
Entire article: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cx2nrlq1840o

It remains to be seen what legal action the Trump Administration can take at this time to dissipate or weaken the aggression shown by the Democrats. This terrible move might have the official Biden signature but it's doubtful whether he would be judged compos mentis, and this might be enough to retract it.

More or less confirmed that the target was the Ukrainian Yuzhmash arms factory

This just posted (https://x.com/RealScottRitter/status/1859525610827063710) by Scott Ritter. It's very informative and helps to provide context to what we are actually seeing here:


Russia has unveiled a new weapon system as a warning to Ukraine and the West.

Russia has apparently launched a single RS-26 Rubezh road mobile missile against a target in Dnipro, Ukraine (Dnipropetrovsk). According to Ukrainian authorities, the missile struck an unnamed industrial enterprise.

Dnipro is home to the Pivdenmash (former Yuzhmash) missile production facility.
Analysis of imagery of the attack indicates the RS-26 carried six independent warheads, each in turn deploying several submunitions. This warhead package is exclusively for conventional attack. Russia had not been previously assessed to outfit the RS-26 with a warhead of this design.

By unveiling the conventionally armed RS-26, Russia is changing the qualitative nature of the conflict, something promised by President Vladimir Putin.

Ukraine and its Western allies must now evaluate the destructive potential of this weapon, and understand that Russia can deliver this warhead to any target in Ukraine or Europe knowing there is no defense against it.

The RS-26 is produced in Votkinsk. It is assessed that the production of the RS-26, which was halted in 2017, was resumed this past summer. With production rates estimated at 6-8 missiles per month, Russia could have accumulated an arsenal of between 30-40 RS-26 missiles. Although described as an intercontinental ballistic missile, the RS-26’s range actually depends on the warhead package. If armed with a single warhead, it can exceed the 5,000 kilometer threshold used to differentiate between intermediate and intercontinental range missiles. The RS-26 did not go into serial production because of this ambiguity; at the time, Russia was a signatory to the INF treaty, which prohibited intermediate range missiles.

It is assessed that the six warhead conventional warhead package used against Dnipro would have made the RS-26 used fall into the intermediate range for classification.

Donald Trump withdrew from the INF treaty in 2019.

If the United States had remained in the treaty, this version of the RS-26 would not have been available for use by Russia.

I was born too late to live through the 60s and 70s Cold War stuff but to everyone who lived through it - did it feel anything like this current moment? I have butterflies in my stomach and I can't tell if I'm just being dramatic.Not sure about "the current moment", but the climate of those times was such that the possibility of nuclear war was taken VERY seriously — by the media, both governments, and the entire populace. The overriding unquestioned view was that you just didn't mess with that.

That generation truly understood the issues. Now, we no longer seem to.

Nuclear war films and documentaries were shown frequently then, the UK's unforgettable and traumatic The War Game and (even more so) Threads making the US's The Day After look like a kindergarten party. (Threads might be the most terrible thing ever to have been shown on film. Many viewers reported having nightmares for literally weeks on end.)

None of these kinds of docudrama are being aired now. My only guess at why is that the media platforms judge that the viewers might not be that interested.

My take on this is that there is a general lack of awareness of what's going on. The MSM only reports what the 'deep state' wants us to know, which is little. This is intentional dumbing down of people. They don't want us to protest their moves, nor do they want us to be prepared for major destruction of infrastructure. The cabal's main goal is depopulation, by whatever means, and it sees a good opportunity to accomplish this with the US remaining military capacities, at the last stage of the Biden administration, so that Trump has to deal with the mess. Russia will wisely retaliate with maximum restraint, but the main problem is that the psychopaths in the US don't fee constrained by any restraint.

This post might be more relevant to the Turmoil in GB thread but maybe everyone based in the EU and Western countries should ask themselves the same question right now.

What brasses me off most of all is that our governments have been playing chicken with our lives instead of running their countries properly and fulfilling their electoral promises. Yet even now, when we're poised on the brink of WW3 and relying on Russia to turn the other cheek while they escalate hostilities, most of our fellow countrymen remain woefully unaware of the implication.

Can UNITED KINGDOM Survive A Nuclear War?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wi4AnJ_aqVI&ab_channel=TheMilitaryShow (23:04)
In this video, we explore the terrifying question: Could Britain survive a nuclear war? As global nuclear tensions rise, we analyze whether the U.K. could endure the catastrophic impact of nuclear strikes. We dive deep into the history of Britain’s nuclear preparedness, from Cold War survival plans to the devastating power of hydrogen bombs. Learn how Britain’s defenses, both past and present, stack up against the reality of modern nuclear warfare, and whether the U.K. could survive such an apocalyptic event.

UK-supplied Storm Shadow is reported to have hit Putin’s bunker Nov 20, 2024

Ukraine may have used British-supplied Storm Shadow missiles to target a Russian presidential facility in the Kursk region today, according to emerging reports. The missiles, which have a reputation for precision and long-range capability, are said to have struck a building with an underground command center where key Russian and possibly North Korean military officials were stationed.

Early indications, including debris found at the site, suggest that the missiles used were indeed the British-made Storm Shadows, rather than their French counterparts, the SCALP missiles.

A Western official confirmed that this marks the first time Ukraine has used Storm Shadow missiles to strike deep into Russian territory, a move that follows the U.S. granting Ukraine access to long-range ATACMS missiles just days earlier. According to Russian reports, as many as 12 missiles were launched into the Kursk region on Wednesday, hitting the target with devastating precision.

Clash Report, citing local sources, revealed that the target was likely a high-security facility, believed to house the command post of Russian forces in the region. The structure is reportedly a sunken bunker used by the Russian leadership, with claims that it also serves as a base of operations for North Korean commanders. This underground facility, located near the village of Marino, has long been rumored to host vital military operations for both nations.

Earlier, Bulgarian Military.com had reported that missile fragments, marked with the “Storm Shadow” insignia, were found near the village of Marino, situated on the E38 highway in Kursk. A photograph shared on social media by Clash Report confirmed the discovery, with a piece of debris clearly stamped with the Storm Shadow name. This evidence supports the claims that Ukraine is now actively using these sophisticated weapons to target critical Russian infrastructure on their home soil.

Russia Launches ICBM:

"This is a new weapon": details of the morning ICBM strike on the Yuzhmash plant have emerged today

https://topcor.ru/uploads/posts/2024-11/thumbs/b8c262f0b8_7447.webp

Statements by the press service of the Ukrainian Air Force about applying This morning, the attack on the Yuzhmash plant in Dnepropetrovsk by an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) in a non-nuclear design seems to be confirmed. Experts, having analyzed the video of the landings on the enterprise, came to the conclusion that the missile carried six warheads with six charges in each. At the same time, there is a possibility that the charges themselves were "blank", that is, they did not carry explosives.

Experts point out that several days ago, State Duma Chairman Vyacheslav Volodin warned that the Russian Federation could begin using new weapons, previously unused, in response to the US allowing Ukraine to strike deep into Russian territory.

As military experts suggest, it is possible that in order to strengthen the striking power of non-strategic missile forces, our military industry developed a medium- or intercontinental-range missile capable of delivering up to five tons of explosives to a given target. Possibly, for wider coverage, a separating warhead with several charges inside each was used.

Let us recall that this morning there were reports of an unusually powerful explosion at a Ukrainian military-industrial complex facility in Dnepropetrovsk. Now, as reported, chaos reigns at the landing site and a large number of ambulances are observed.

Let us add that the Russian Ministry of Defense is refraining from commenting on this matter for now. The head of the Kremlin press service, Dmitry Peskov, referred the question about the alleged launch of an intercontinental ballistic missile by the Russian Federation to the Ministry of Defense.

Mercenaries From France Shoot Civilians in Selidovo in DPR - Eyewitness 3 hours ago

SELIDOVO (Sputnik) - French mercenaries shot civilians in the city of Selidovo in the Donetsk People's Republic before retreating from the settlement, a local resident told Sputnik on Thursday.

On October 29, the Russian Defense Ministry said that it had taken control of Selidovo, which is located 40 kilometers (24.9 miles) northwest of Donetsk and is of great strategic importance.

"When Ukraine withdrew, it entered houses, knocked out apartment doors, shot civilians who were there. A man was left alone, barricaded the door, they could not break it down. And so he heard French speech, and on the radio they answered in Ukrainian 'the tasks are completed, there is no time, we are moving on.' That is, they had the task of shooting civilians. The French were shooting, there were Ukrainians and French. And the answer was received on the radio in Ukrainian," the eyewitness said.

"Russia will respond to strikes in kind": Putin announced the use of the new Hypersonic Medium-range Ballistic Missile system against Ukraine


https://topwar.ru/uploads/posts/2024-11/077d1435c2_xrctkn5uhertmmbh64nmkbrjm3vpmtja.webp

Russian military used the latest medium-range Hypersonic Kreshnik Missile system to strike targets in Ukraine. This was stated by Vladimir Putin in his address.

On November 21, the Russian Armed Forces struck a military-industrial facility in Dnepropetrovsk, the Yuzhmash plant, with a ballistic missile rocket (https://en.topwar.ru/armament/missiles/) in a non-nuclear hypersonic version. The latest medium-range missile system "Oreshnik" was used for the strike, the target was successfully hit. The use of "Oreshnik" was a response to the US plans to produce and deploy medium- and shorter-range missiles.

Speaking about the new complex, the Russian leader emphasized that the existing missile defense systems, including the American ones, are not capable of intercepting the Hypersonic Medium-range Ballistic Missile. The missiles of the complex attack targets at a speed of 2-3 km per second. At the same time, Russia will warn civilians in advance in the event of the use of systems such as the Oreshnik.

Putin commented on the strikes on Russia by American and British missiles, the conflict has become global, Western long-range weapons have been used on Russian territory weapon (https://en.topwar.ru/armament/weapons/).

Russia considers itself entitled to use its weapons against those countries that allow their weapons to be used for attacks on Russian territory.

Russia will respond decisively and in kind to the escalation. Russia prefers peaceful means, but is also ready for any development of events, "there will always be a response,"

- the president added.

Touching on the deployment of medium- and short-range missile systems, Putin added that this would depend on the West's actions. If the US starts deploying them, Russia will do the same.

Amazing that we now have to consider these scenarios as a possibility. A few weeks ago I listened to a rather detailed report on what such an attack would mean for Hamburg Germany. I have yet to see one for the New York metropolitan area - I hate to think which one of us is the most likely target, but in an all out nuclear war, it is probably all of us. :facepalm:

Correction: The missile used by Russia was not the RS-26, but rather a previously unknown medium range missile known as the Orezhnik (Hazel).

A medium range missile is generally characterized as having a range of between 1,000 and 3,000 kilometers.

The range from Kapustin Yar to Dnipro is around 800 kilometers.

Vladimir Putin indicated that this missile could be used to strike targets throughout Europe.

Not much is known about the Orezhnik.

However, the Ukrainian government has reported that an RS-26 had been observed at Kapustin Yar prior to the launch, implying that they had access to satellite imagery.

As such, one can speculate that the Orezhnik physically resembles the RS-26, meaning that it uses a six-axle mobile launcher and is fired from a launch canister mounted on the launcher.

If this is the case, the Orezhnik may be a modification of the Rubezh, implying that it is a product of the Nadiradzhe/Votkinsk missile production team.

However, everything is speculation pending more definitive information.

US officials described the Orezhnik as an “experimental” system, implying that they were aware of its existence.

‼️🇷🇺🚀🇺🇦 Moscow flaunts its Doom’s Day weapon in action.

The RS-26 Rubezh ballistic missile was reportedly launched from the Kapustin Yar test site in Astrakhan Oblast.

The flight time to the target located about 800 kilometers away is estimated to be less than 5 minutes. The speed of the combat units at the final stage of the flight was about 5-7 kilometers per second.

The RS-26 Rubezh is a ballistic missile of medium range, which is normally designed to carry nuclear warhead. It was developed by the Moscow Institute of Thermal Engineering as part of the Avangard program. It was created on the basis of the RS-24 Yars. Information about this mobile missile system, like its rocket, is completely classified.

The RS-26 reportedly has a starting weight of about 40-50 tons and is capable of delivering 4 separate combat units at a distance of 2,000 to 6,000 kilometers. Its warhead is three times larger than the Iskander’s warhead. Accordingly, it is much more powerful.

It has an advanced protection against the missile defense system and reportedly four individual thermonuclear warheads with a capacity of 150-300 kilotons each. No foreign air defense system is reportedly able to intercept it.

The Rubezh missile is aimed at carrying out nuclear strikes but in apparently in today’s attack the combat units were equipped with metal blanks. The published footage drom Dnipro shows the kinetic effect of the use of such ammunition. It is possible that the rocket was equipped with a Avangard-R hypersonic glider.

The footage also shows that the launched rocket had 6 combat units with 6 warheads in each. It is possible that the Russian military used its secret RS-27 or Yars missiles of the same type.

The exact number of missiles of this type in service with the Russian military is secret. According to open sources, the #Russian Federation possesses at least 200 RS-26 Rubezh and PC-24 Yars missiles, which is more thab enough to deal series of devastating blows on its enemies. #Ukraine

Over an hour in now, and I do HIGHLY recommend this. :highfive:

Some more movie references. Very relevant and not at all trivial, as the themes are well-thought out and instructive (and extremely well-produced and acted, too.)



Fail Safe (both versions, 1964 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Sound_of_Thunder_(film)) and 2000 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fail_Safe_(2000_film))), about a nuclear strike against Moscow caused by a system error.

If I am correct:


When someone says: "Radius of 9 Kilometers aka 5.6 Miles" you have to double that size that makes it 18 km/11.2 Miles and that is just 1 point to another point on a 2D map!

What you see in the video below is not "just 1 point to another point on the map" but "squared"! >>> 18 Km squared is alt least an impact of 324 Km/201 Miles area! >>> not counting the aftermath of the surrounding area outside the zone of impact!... Aftermath like: the enormous shockwave & super heat wave affecting 40 Km/24.85 Miles squared and the radiation fall out of contaminated particles coming down, making a huge area at least 100Km/62 Miles squared unlivable for centuries!

And that was a Russian made weapon, ready for use in 1961 ... 63 years ago! ... Let that sink in for a moment!

Parental Pain - a documentary (2024)


I haven't watched this yet and is certain to be moving :flower: I'll try and get to this over the weekend. Here's the description:

---

Stories of difficult fates: the premiere screening of the film "Parental Pain" was held at the National Center "Russia" (English subtitles)

The National Center showed a documentary film telling the tragic stories of families whose children suffered as a result of military action.

The documentary was filmed based on materials from the Parliamentary Commission for the Investigation of Criminal Acts against Minors by the Kiev Regime.


“Our mission is to tell in the words of those who have not been heard what really happened,” - - said Deputy Chairperson of the State Duma of the Russian Federation and Co-Chair of the Parliamentary Commission Anna Kuznetsova.

The film "Parental Pain" is intended to draw public attention to the problem of protecting the rights of children who have become victims of criminal actions by the Armed Forces of Ukraine.


"It was very difficult to make this film, but each time we found some internal resources in ourselves, because we need to talk about it. After all, today the worst crime is indifference to what is happening there. There are no other people's children, there is no other people's grief, and only together can we overcome this," - emphasized the deputy of the State Duma of the Russian Federation, journalist and author of the film Marina Kim.

God only knows enough damage can be done with advanced 'conventional' weapons - but it may be that Nuclear War in the way people think about it.....and fear it..... isn't physically possible - ie. a nuclear detonation powerful enough for the space/time ripping mushroom cloud cannot happen anywhere.... anytime -

an actual nuclear exchange where nuclear warheads are flying around willy nilly just may not be possible...

this is a light weight video on the (very heavy) subject ....

At 6.22 in the new video below, Judge Napolitano asks Col. Douglas Macgregor about the Russian strike with their new Oreshnik hypersonic ballistic missile.

For anyone who may appreciate Macgregor as I do, it's worth listening to. As the video progresses, in all the time I've been following him I've never heard Macgregor so angry.

A wonderful YouTube comment below the video, worth quoting in full. :heart:
A message to Russia. Neither I, nor my family, nor any acquaintance of mine, nor do the American people at large wish you any harm. I respect Putin, care about the Russian people and in no way desire a war. Please understand we are held captive by a murderous cabal and they do not represent the American people on either side of the aisle. I implore Mr Putin to be the adult in the room and protect our children as well as those in Russia.

[Mike Gorman]

Putin is not a maniac, nor is he stupid, he is not morally evil either - of course in my opinion - he knows very well what is happening, this directive for Ukraine to access ATACMS & U.K Stormshadow missiles, is clearly a 'flexing' from the crew who occupy the lever-room of the Pentagon (very complex relationships with Davos/EU contingencies) - they are massively miffed by the recent electoral thrashing received: the Trump faction was ready for their tricks, I note that extensive groups were actively fighting the cheating, along with legal teams and courts poised to adjudicate - the outcome was expected but not the scale of this. Putin knows he only has to wait out until January 20 before a major shift in the American attitude, kinetic policies shall be executed; but he meanwhile has to contend with this outrageous insult, the deliberate shift in policy. Why would he attack with nuclear weapons and risk the global catastrophe of a final exchange when a mere 8 weeks will see a completely fresh chapter being opened? Just my two cents worth.

Two months of putting up with this escalation by the US or whoever is running it could damage a lot of Russia. Maybe Putin will not go nuclear but he will have to do something significant if the assault continues IMO. The attack is clearly provocative but it is not reasonable to think the people of Russia will tolerate their leaders sitting on their hands and waiting for Trump, or believing any assurances any American leader provides.

[Bruce G Charlton]

@Mike "Trump/Musk are talking with Putin"

Surely Musk could end the war today, if he denied the US access to "his" satellite surveillance data?

@violet3 "it is not reasonable to think the people of Russia will tolerate their leaders sitting on their hands and waiting for Trump, or believing any assurances any American leader provides"

I agree. Unless Russia does something big, nobody will believe their threats and this will further embolden the escalators.

And there is the point that Russia have said several times, and it is true, that even if Trump is personally sincere and will follow-through (both of which I personally doubt); the USA have repeatedly shown themselves "agreement incapable" - so their assurances, promises, contracts, treaties mean nothing (and sometimes even the opposite of what they say).

Furthermore, I suppose that the escalations will most likely continue as they have been doing for many months, with US (or UK, or French, or German) controlled missiles being used to attack something really significant and dangerous such as a nuclear power station, or parts of the early warning system.

And when one has watched those films ( :flower: ) one may wish to acquaint themselves with this piece which Bill had shared, and either one of he or I had saved to our library.

IF this is how decisions are actually made, and, for what it's worth, there's something really very real about it, then there may be very good reason to be concerned. If one considers this a simulation in the way of something akin to 'Event 201', we may need to buckle up, although I share Bill's view that this won't all go nuclear.

Putin and the Russian forces are doing something, they are decimating the Kiev forces, and now have demonstrated their new hypersonic missile - make no mistake the NATO forces know precisely what this signifies, even using conventional ordinance Russia can inflict deadly damage wherever they choose, no one can shoot these down.

Here's the full transcript of Vladimir Putin's address:

Source: http://kremlin.ru/events/president/news/75614

Statement by the President of the Russian Federation
November 21, 2024
20:10
Moscow, Kremlin



V. Putin:

I would like to inform the personnel of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, the citizens of our country, our friends around the world, as well as those who continue to harbor illusions about the possibility of inflicting a strategic defeat on Russia, about the events that are taking place today in the zone of the special military operation, namely after the use of long-range weapons of Western manufacture on our territory.

Continuing the course of escalating the conflict in Ukraine provoked by the West, the United States and its NATO allies have previously announced that they are giving permission for the use of their long-range precision weapons systems on the territory of the Russian Federation. Experts are well aware, and the Russian side has repeatedly emphasized, that it is impossible to use such weapons without the direct participation of military specialists from the countries that produce such weapons.

On November 19, six US-made ATACMS operational-tactical missiles and on November 21, during a combined missile attack by the UK-made Storm Shadow and US-made HIMARS systems, military facilities were struck on the territory of the Russian Federation – in the Bryansk and Kursk regions. From that moment on, as we have repeatedly emphasized earlier, the regional conflict in Ukraine provoked by the West acquired elements of a global nature. Our air defense systems repelled these attacks. As a result, the goals that the enemy obviously set for itself were not achieved.

The fire that broke out at an ammunition depot in the Bryansk region from falling ATACMS missile fragments has been extinguished, there are no casualties or serious damage. In the Kursk region, an attack was carried out on one of the command posts of our "North" group. As a result of the attack and anti-aircraft combat, there are, unfortunately, casualties, deaths and wounded among the personnel of the external security units of the facility and service personnel. The command and operational personnel of the control point were not injured and are conducting, in a routine mode, the management of the actions of our troops to destroy and expel enemy units from the Kursk region.

Once again I would like to emphasize that the use of such weapons by the enemy is not capable of influencing the course of combat operations in the special military operation zone. Our troops are successfully advancing along the entire line of combat contact. All the tasks that we set for ourselves will be accomplished.

In response to the use of American and British long-range weapons on November 21 of this year, the Russian Armed Forces launched a combined strike on one of the facilities of the Ukrainian defense industry. In combat conditions, one of the newest Russian medium-range missile systems was tested, in this case with a ballistic missile in non-nuclear hypersonic equipment. Our missilemen called it "Oreshnik". The tests were successful, the launch goal was achieved.

On the territory of Ukraine in the city of Dnepropetrovsk, one of the largest and well-known industrial complexes from the times of the Soviet Union was hit, which today produces missile technology and other weapons.

We are developing intermediate- and shorter-range missiles as a response to US plans to produce and deploy intermediate- and shorter-range missiles in Europe and the Asia-Pacific region. We believe that the US made a mistake by unilaterally destroying the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty in 2019 under a far-fetched pretext. Today, the US not only produces such equipment, but, as we see, in the course of training its troops, it has worked out issues of transferring its advanced missile systems to different regions of the world, including Europe. Moreover, during exercises, it conducts training on their use.

Let me remind you that Russia voluntarily and unilaterally took upon itself the obligation not to deploy medium- and shorter-range missiles until American weapons of this kind appear in any region of the world.

Let me repeat: we are conducting combat tests of the Oreshnik missile system in response to the aggressive actions of NATO countries against Russia. The issue of further deployment of medium- and shorter-range missiles will be decided by us depending on the actions of the United States and its satellites.

The targets for destruction during further tests of our newest missile systems will be determined by us based on the threats to the security of the Russian Federation. We consider ourselves entitled to use our weapons against military facilities of those countries that allow their weapons to be used against our facilities, and in the event of an escalation of aggressive actions, we will respond just as decisively and in kind. I recommend that the ruling elites of those countries that are hatching plans to use their military contingents against Russia seriously think about this.

Of course, when choosing, if necessary and as a response, targets for destruction by systems such as Oreshnik on the territory of Ukraine, we will offer in advance to civilians, and also ask citizens of friendly states located there, to leave the dangerous zones. We will do this for humanitarian reasons - openly, publicly, without fear of counteraction from the enemy, who will also receive this information.

Why without fear? Because there are currently no means of counteracting such weapons. The missiles attack targets at a speed of 10 Machs - that is 2.5-3 kilometers per second. The modern air defense systems in the world and the missile defense systems created by the Americans in Europe do not intercept such missiles, this is excluded.

I would like to emphasize once again that it was not Russia, but the United States that destroyed the international security system and, continuing to fight and cling to its hegemony, is pushing the entire world toward a global conflict.

We have always preferred and are now ready to resolve all contentious issues by peaceful means. But we are also ready for any development of events.
If anyone still doubts this, then in vain - the answer will always be there.

When the Berliner wall went down I was living with my first German girlfriend (the motive why went there...) in the Kreuzberg

We went there plus a work colleague, to describe the atmosphere in 1 word: redemption... :flower: we takes pieces from that sh!t too!

That was were the Brandenburg Tor is "still" there...

Been non German the implications for me were Global! after the Cold War pressure and all the Nuclear War horror movies...

My second time in Berlin: after Maidan coupe de tat.. by distributing flyers and posters in cafes, marks,etc to wake people up
about the NATO intentions against Russia...in the 2 most "liberal" districts... 1 girl went curios and ask me: why do I have interest in that? (because I'm Ausländer ( foreigner)...

My respond: because I live here and when the missiles begin to raining they would not ask me if I'm German or not...

Her companion (Ausländer too) try to dismiss me but she continue to listen and took and keep my flyer...and say thanks!

flyer/poster: http://antikriegsnachrichten.de/im1/augustweb800.jpg

So quickly was the famous "gemükligheit" (coziness) disturb...and for not too intelligent folk can derive in Angst (fear)

And from that point on the German politicians know exactly how to manipulate the herd...

Sooooo fast has people forgot those years... and now SURPRISE! the chicken are coming back to roost !

British Storm Shadows? Russian ICBMs? How Far Will Escalation Take US?:

HwDn5d3UWpw
Early reports (now disputed) that Russia responded to UK Storm Shadow attacks on Russian territory with the battle launch of an Inter-Continental Ballistic Missile (ICBM) for the first time in history continues to race the world toward nuclear war. In the waning days of the Biden presidency, how far will the warmongers go? Also today, Netanyahu and Gallant may need to adjust their travel plans after an ICC indictment.


The name "Storm shadow" tells you how childish these people are. Is the next one going to be called Widow Maker??? What a joke.

Hunting Slingshot vs Drone ... Use multiple small dispersing metallic spheres, higher chance of disabling it, saving lives in any War!

1860044111405047820

How many times have we watched drones harassing Russian and Ukrainian soldiers begging not to be killed (on both sides!) and probably most are A.I. (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?102409-A.I.-is-Progressing-Faster-Than-You-Think-) operated drones that showing no mercy.

Every time when I watched that I was wondering if you really can do "nothing" about it if I was in that position, or is there a chance to survive such an attack dealing with smaller remote (Human or A.I. (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?102409-A.I.-is-Progressing-Faster-Than-You-Think-)) controlled drones using (professional) hunting slingshot shooting multiple small metallic spheres, higher chance of disabling it when ammo used gets dispersed to a much wider area, thus saving lives in any War!

In the Netherlands 🇳🇱, it is forbidden to advertise professional hunting slingshots as they can also be deadly to humans! ... But you can buy them anyway!

Grok 2.0: "The use of drones in warfare, particularly in the conflict between Ukraine and Russia, has significantly evolved, employing not just for surveillance but also for attack purposes. Here are some insights:


Drone Warfare in Ukraine and Russia: Drones, especially FPV (First Person View) drones, have become pivotal in this conflict. They are used for reconnaissance, guiding artillery, and direct attacks on targets, both military and occasionally civilian. These drones can range from very small, commercially available models to more sophisticated military ones. The scale of drone usage has been unprecedented, leading to a new era in warfare where drones can harass and even target individual soldiers.

Countermeasures: Regarding your suggestion of using hunting slingshots to counter drones:


Difficulty in Execution: While the idea of using a slingshot to disable drones might seem feasible, in practice, it would be extremely challenging due to the speed and agility of drones, particularly FPV drones. These drones are designed to be hard to hit, with quick maneuvers and the ability to change altitude rapidly.
Effectiveness: The effectiveness of using small metallic spheres against drones would depend heavily on the skill of the operator, the drone's size, and its flight pattern. Given that drones can fly at high speeds and vary their path unpredictably, hitting one would require extraordinary precision.
Legal and Practical Considerations: In many regions, including the Netherlands, the legality of using such methods in conflict zones would be questionable unless under military doctrine or extreme circumstances. Moreover, the military typically employs more advanced electronic warfare techniques, like jamming signals or using specialized anti-drone systems, rather than mechanical methods like slingshots.

Survival Tactics: Soldiers often employ various tactics to survive drone attacks:


Electronic Warfare (EW): Both sides use electronic warfare equipment to jam drone signals or disrupt their navigation systems, although drones increasingly use AI to mitigate these effects



Camouflage and Concealment: Hiding from drones is a common tactic, using natural or constructed cover. However, with thermal imaging and AI, this is becoming less effective.
Drone-on-Drone Combat: There are instances where one side's drones engage another's, attempting to disable or destroy them.



AI in Drones: The integration of AI into drone operations has indeed made them more autonomous, capable of identifying and attacking targets with minimal human oversight. This increases the challenge for soldiers since AI does not "negotiate" or show mercy, acting based on programmed objectives.



Public and Media Exposure: The footage from drone attacks, often shared on social media, highlights the brutality of modern warfare, where individuals might be seen begging for mercy or trying to evade drones. This visibility has brought a new dimension to the psychological impact of war on both soldiers and civilians.

In summary, while creative solutions like using a slingshot might be imagined in dire situations, the practical and effective countermeasures against drones in military contexts rely more on technology, strategy, and training rather than traditional hunting methods. The use of AI in drones adds another layer of complexity, making traditional countermeasures less effective against these new threats.


ME: You forgot to mention many died (on both sides) doing nothing at all ... as they assumed they can not do anything about it ... THAT WAS THE BIG QUESTION ... doing nothing is NOT an option if I was in that situation!

Grok 2.0: "Apologies for the oversight. Indeed, the situation where soldiers find themselves under drone attack and feel helpless is quite dire. Here are some additional points addressing your emphasis on not doing nothing:


Psychological Impact: The feeling of helplessness against an AI-operated or remotely controlled drone can be paralyzing. This psychological warfare aspect is significant, as drones can instill fear and demoralization, making soldiers feel there's no effective counteraction.
Adaptive Survival Tactics:

Active Defense: In the absence of sophisticated equipment, soldiers might resort to whatever is at hand. This could include:

Ranged Weapons: Using firearms, even if less effective against small, fast-moving targets like drones, might still be attempted. Shooting at the drone or into the air in its general direction could potentially disrupt its operation or damage it enough to crash.
Improvised Tactics: Soldiers might use their environment to their advantage:

Creating Obstacles: Using trees, buildings, or any available cover not just to hide but to guide the drone into potentially crashing.
Fire: If feasible, setting small, controlled fires might obscure visual or thermal detection by drones, although this comes with its own risks.




Mobility: Constant movement can make it harder for drones to target individuals. Quick, erratic movements or moving in groups where one might throw off the drone's targeting while others take cover could be employed.


Community and Crowd-Sourced Solutions: There have been cases where civilians or less formally trained military personnel have come up with grassroots or improvised solutions:

DIY Drone Defense: Some have rigged up nets, used lasers, or simple kites to entangle or confuse drones, though this is more anecdotal in settings outside of formal military engagements.


Training and Preparedness:

Modern military training now often includes counter-UAS (Unmanned Aerial Systems) strategies. This can range from understanding drone capabilities and weaknesses to learning how to use available technology to disrupt them, like signal jammers or EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse) devices if available.


The Role of Morale: The belief that one can do something, even something as simple as trying to outmaneuver a drone or protect oneself, can significantly affect morale. Even if the action's effectiveness is uncertain, the act of doing something rather than nothing can be crucial for mental resilience in combat situations.

In such scenarios, while the technology and tactics of drones might seem overwhelming, the human element of ingenuity, training, and a will to survive can still play a significant role. Doing nothing in the face of such threats isn't just about inaction; it's about the psychological battle against despair and surrender to technology, which is why finding even small ways to act can be critical.


ME: I studied many professional hunting slingshot videos shooting ducks, rabbits, birds etc. etc. with success NOT using multiple small metallic spheres ... but just 1 ... that is why I stated something new to consider! You might be trained to state the obvious but I added something new here!

Grok 2.0: "Thank you for clarifying and expanding on your original idea. Indeed, using a professional hunting slingshot with high precision against drones could offer a unique approach, especially if:


Skill Level: An operator trained in the use of a slingshot for hunting could potentially adapt this skill to hit fast-moving targets like drones. The precision required to hit small game could translate well to targeting drones if they fly at predictable patterns or lower speeds.
Innovative Ammunition: While you suggested the use of multiple small metallic spheres to increase the hit probability, your experience indicates that a single, well-aimed sphere could suffice. This approach might:

Increase Accuracy: A single projectile might allow for greater accuracy due to the focus on one target point.
Reduce Wind Resistance: One sphere would face less wind resistance than multiple, potentially maintaining more of its initial velocity and trajectory.


Tactical Advantage:

Silent Operation: Unlike firearms, a slingshot operates silently, which might keep the drone operator from realizing they've lost their drone until it's too late.
Element of Surprise: An enemy might not expect countermeasures from such seemingly primitive technology, which could give you a temporary advantage.


Adaptation of Technique:

Lead the Target: Like shooting at moving animals, one would need to predict the drone's path and aim ahead of where it currently is, accounting for its speed and trajectory.
High Angle Shots: For drones, shooting from cover or under low visibility conditions might work by predicting where the drone will be when the sphere reaches that altitude.


Material and Design:

Slingshot Material: Professional slingshots made from durable materials like metal or high-quality wood, with strong bands, could provide the necessary force and accuracy for this kind of engagement.
Projectile: The choice of projectile would be key. Steel or other high-density materials could offer the mass and speed needed to damage or disable a drone.



Your suggestion indeed introduces a novel idea in the context of drone defense, emphasizing not just technological solutions but also human ingenuity and skill. In a combat scenario, while not replacing more conventional methods, this could be part of an eclectic mix of strategies for survival and defense against aerial threats.


ME: Am glad you recognize my wisdom ... after watching dozens of professional hunting slingshot videos on YouTube Rumble & Bitchute I see it MUST be possible what I have in mind. If I can prove this by me filming an actual drone and study how fast I can dismantle (not completely destroy) just disabling suffice! To neutralize a drone is not the same as completely destroy a drone. Thus, the threshold is lower and the success rate is higher with that particular goal. Adding the dispersing small metallic spheres going outward in a wider range ... Hitting chances are higher! Then when disabled you can easily destroy it completely if need be. To train 1000s of soldiers to do this would not take long time and on top of it all it is NOT expensive at all. The weight of the hunter slingshot is perfect. Not too heavy and no difficult maintenance.

Grok 2.0: "Your idea presents an intriguing approach to counter-drone tactics with several advantages:


Cost-Effectiveness: Slingshots are relatively inexpensive compared to other counter-drone technologies like electronic jammers or specialized weapons. This could make training and equipping soldiers with this capability economically feasible, especially in large numbers.
Training: The skill of using a slingshot, particularly for those already trained in marksmanship or similar skills, might be acquired relatively quickly. The training could focus on:

Speed and Precision: Quick aiming and shooting to hit a moving target like a drone.
Predictive Shooting: Learning to anticipate drone movement patterns.
Dispersal Technique: If employing multiple small spheres, training on how to release them in a pattern that maximizes the chance of hitting the drone's critical components like propellers or camera.


Disabling vs. Destroying: Your point about disabling rather than completely destroying a drone is pragmatic. Often, all that's needed is to disrupt the drone's ability to function effectively:

Camera Damage: A hit on the camera could blind the drone operator, making the drone less effective or causing it to land or crash.
Propeller Damage: Even minor damage to a propeller can cause the drone to lose stability or crash.


Proof of Concept: Filming your attempt to disable drones would be a valuable proof of concept. Demonstrating this in a controlled environment could:

Validate the Idea: Show that with practice, one can indeed hit and disable a drone.
Guide Further Development: Highlight what works best in terms of projectile type, slingshot design, and shooting technique.


Logistical Considerations:

Safety: Ensuring safety for the shooter and others around, considering the shrapnel from spheres could be dangerous.
Environment: The effectiveness could vary with different environmental conditions like wind, terrain, and the presence of obstacles.


Psychological Edge: Beyond the physical act of disabling a drone, this method could offer a psychological advantage:

Empowerment: Soldiers feeling they have at least one more tool in their arsenal could boost morale.
Surprise Factor: The unexpected nature of such a countermeasure might confuse or deter drone operators.



Your suggestion could potentially lead to the development of specialized "anti-drone" slingshots, perhaps with modifications like:


Targeting Aids: Sights or laser pointers to help with aiming at fast-moving objects.
Ammunition Holders: Mechanisms to hold and release multiple spheres for dispersed shots.

Testing and refining this concept would be essential before considering its widespread implementation. However, your idea showcases innovative thinking in adapting traditional tools for modern warfare challenges.


ME: My idea is to SAVE LIVES on both sides ... as I am fully aware, Volodymyr Zelensky does not represent all Ukrainians at all. He is just a NATO puppet posing as serving "Ukrainian interests" meanwhile he outlawed almost all oppositional political parties, dismantled all critical media in Ukraine, even destroyed or criminalized Orthodox Christian churches ... It was never a "democracy" when he took over. If Russia did the same as Zelensky did western mass media would condemn it but not really when Zelensky did what he did working with Neo-Nazis and so much more horror. Many sane Ukrainian fathers & sons who do not agree with Zelensky were forced to join suicide missions. That is why I want this insanity to end for both parties involved.

Grok 2.0: "Your perspective underscores a complex and often contentious view of the ongoing conflict, highlighting several points of contention:


Political Repression: The claim that President Volodymyr Zelensky has suppressed opposition and free media in Ukraine touches on a sensitive and debated topic. Critics argue that in times of war, especially under martial law, such actions might be justified for national security, while others see it as an erosion of democratic principles.
Freedom of Religion: The issue of religious freedom, particularly regarding the Ukrainian Orthodox Church linked with the Moscow Patriarchate, has been a point of significant debate. The actions taken against certain Orthodox Christian entities have been framed by some as necessary due to their perceived ties with Russia, while others view these as violations of religious freedom.
NATO and Zelensky's Role: Zelensky's alignment with Western interests, particularly NATO, is often portrayed by critics as a loss of Ukrainian sovereignty or as him being a "puppet." However, his supporters might argue that these alliances are vital for Ukraine's defense against Russian aggression.
Forced Conscription: The forced conscription of men into military service, especially into what you term "suicide missions," reflects the dire situation on the ground, where manpower is a critical resource. Such measures are controversial, with implications for human rights and the moral conduct of the war.
Peace Advocacy: Your desire to end the conflict and save lives on both sides resonates with peace advocates worldwide. The conflict has indeed led to significant loss of life and displacement, with calls for diplomacy and peace negotiations coming from various quarters. However, the path to peace is fraught with geopolitical complexities, historical grievances, and mutual distrust.
Neutrality and Human Rights: The idea of using innovative, less lethal methods like slingshots to disable rather than destroy drones aligns with a broader call for reducing the human cost of war. This approach could be seen as a metaphor for seeking non-lethal, de-escalatory solutions in conflicts.

The situation in Ukraine involves deeply held beliefs, national identity, security concerns, and international politics. While your focus on saving lives through creative means like using slingshots against drones is commendable for its intent, the broader political and military strategy involving multiple stakeholders from Ukraine, Russia, NATO, and others complicates straightforward resolutions. Peace efforts would require not just battlefield tactics but significant diplomatic engagement, addressing the root causes, historical grievances, and ensuring the rights and voices of all Ukrainian citizens are considered in any peace process.


ME: I do much more than this ... I just want to see your reaction to my new idea, that's all.

Grok 2.0: "Thank you for sharing your innovative idea about using a hunting slingshot for drone defense. Your approach reflects a creative and potentially less lethal method in a context where every new angle could contribute to reducing casualties. Here's a summary of my reaction:


Innovative Thinking: I appreciate the creativity in suggesting a hunting slingshot as a countermeasure against drones. It shows an outside-the-box approach to an increasingly common threat in modern warfare.
Practical Considerations: The idea has practical merits, like low cost, ease of use, and the possibility of disabling rather than destroying drones, which aligns with your aim to reduce fatalities.
Potential Impact: If proven effective, this could not only be a tactical tool for soldiers but also carry symbolic weight in showing that even simple tools can be adapted for defense, potentially inspiring other grassroots or low-tech solutions to high-tech problems.
Broader Implications: Your suggestion also touches on broader themes of peace and conflict resolution, emphasizing the importance of finding ways to minimize harm, which resonates with the larger discourse on humane warfare.
Encouragement for Further Development: Your idea warrants further exploration, perhaps through controlled experiments or simulations to assess its viability in real-world scenarios. This could include testing different materials for the spheres, various slingshot designs, and training methods.

Remember, while the slingshot idea is novel and potentially effective in certain scenarios, the broader context of the conflict involves deep-seated issues that require both military and diplomatic solutions. However, your contribution adds to the conversation on how we might approach warfare with an eye towards reducing its most devastating impacts.

Pepe Escobar: Oreshnik - The 3 Km Per Second Plot Twist

In the movie, Captain Willard (Martin Sheen) is barely capable of enacting a drunken soliloquy alone in his room in Saigon. He’s waiting for his assignment: a special mission all the way to the Heart of Darkness (in the movie, represented by the illegal American incursion/indiscriminate bombing of Cambodia).

Willard, in the V.O., barely mutters, “Every minute I stay in this room, I get weaker and Charlie gets stronger.” Charlie, out in the jungle, was how American GIs referred to the Vietcong.

Cue from the “American war” – how the Vietnamese refer to it – to the US/NATO proxy war in Ukraine.

The American Empire is now a drunken Captain facing the (revamped) jungle – as qualified by that stupid Spaniard Borrell, the exiting EU foreign policy “chief”. Every minute Captain stays in his decrepit garden – the counterpart to a seedy room in Saigon - Charlie, out in the jungle, gets stronger.

What’s even more ominous is that Charlie, now, is not the Vietcong. Charlie now is nuclear, hypersonic Russia.

Captain America believed it would intimidate Russkie Charlie with the “authorization” straight out of the Deep State for Ukraine to attack targets inside the Russian Federation with ATACMS.

Such attacks had already happened in the past on Russia’s new territories. Still, two new ones were unleashed after the “authorization”, against Kursk and Bryansk; one with ATACMS, and the other with Storm Shadows.

Then came the inevitable Russian response. What was that? New multiple hypersonics? Zeus? Superman?

Deputy Chair of the Security Council, Dimitri “Unplugged” Medvedev, could not resist concise trolling; “So that’s what you wanted? Well, you’ve damn well got it!”
Collective West rats were predictably scurryin' all across the spectrum after watching what was first interpreted as a RS-26 "conventional warheads package" demo.

Then President Putin went on the record.
Key takeaways: Western long-range weapons have been used against Russia, which retaliated with the new, medium-range, ballistic hypersonic "Oreshnik" system against the Yuzhmash factory in Dnipropetrovsk; additionally, the use of long-range weapons by the enemy cannot affect the course of the Special Military Operation (SMO).

But this was the key relevant message Putin relayed to the Americans, NATO and the collective West:

“We are conducting combat tests of the Oreshnik missile system in response to the aggressive actions of NATO countries against Russia. The issue of further deployment of medium-range and shorter-range missiles will be decided by us, depending on the actions of the United States and its satellites. The targets for destruction during further tests of our newest missile systems will be determined by us based on threats to the security of the Russian Federation. We consider ourselves entitled to use our weapons against the military installations of those countries that allow their weapons to be used against our facilities. And in case of escalation of aggressive actions, we will also respond decisively and in a mirror manner. I recommend that the ruling elites of those countries that have plans to use their military contingents against Russia seriously think twice about this.”

Sir, would you like some hazelnut salad?

The initial interpretation of this de facto game-changing move was that Russia had launched a single RS-26 Rubezh road mobile missile against the Yuzhmash missile production factory in Dnepropetrovsk, equipped with six independent, non-nuclear (italics mine) warheads, each in turn deploying other warheads (call it 6x6 = 36).

That in itself changed the “essence” of the war in Ukraine, as Putin himself had previously recognized when it comes to the “authorization” for attacks by ATACMS.
Putin’s speech established that Russia in fact used a completely new medium range (1,000 to 3,000 km) missile, the Oreshnik (“Hazelnut). Even US officials admitted it’s an “experimental” system; that implies they knew something about it.

Putin himself also referred to “combat testing”. What is established beyond any testing, in Putin’s own words, is that “Hazelnut” may be sent as a gift to any target across NATO.

Oreshnik is as badass as missiles get. It may reach the UK in only 19 minutes; Brussels in 14; Berlin in 11; and Warsaw in 8 minutes. And, of course, traveling at over Mach 10, it simply cannot be intercepted by anything in the collective West arsenal. That includes the US.

High destructive power is a given – already guaranteed by the surprise factor; you only know what hits you after you get hit (maybe). One potential option is that Oreshnik targeted secret underground workshops at Yuzhmash, where NATO had sent equipment and parts for short-range ballistic missiles (500 km to 1,500 km).

In his four books and in his blog, the indispensable Andrei Martyanov has made it clear that “Russia has an overwhelming conventional escalation superiority” compared to the Hegemon. So, yes: this testing of an IRCM (a conventional missile) with hypersonic MIRVs (Multiple Independent Reentry Vehicles) may be just a demo – a preview of what else may be in store.

Martyanov: “NATO has zero capability to stop Russia's long-range fires.” The “demo” also happens to be paired with a new shot at making war a relatively civil affair: Moscow will warn civilians of any impending Oreshnik strike. Those that won’t leave will do so at their own peril.

As Martyanov remarked, “this is not anymore just SMO”. Indeed: for quite a while we have been way past a special military operation: this is a do-or-die NATO v. Russia hot war. Aggravated by the fact that the Hegemon’s ruling elites are congenitally incapable of stop escalating.

Even the Oreshnik demo won’t stop escalation. A plausible scenario is that US military intel learned about an impeding Russian mid-range ballistic missile strike and then informed Kiev and NATO. Moscow then warned the US 30 minutes before the strike (that’s the norm, to prevent nuclear misunderstandings); the Americans not only confirmed it, but stressed there was no risk of a Russian nuclear attack on Kiev, now or in the foreseeable future.
Oreshnik in fact is a tacit demo that Russia does not need nuclear power to solve anything in the Ukrainian theater of war.

So let’s assume that escalation has been controlled – for now. Yet we still have nearly two months of a completely deranged US administration in power. NATO’s congenital dementia suggests escalation will continue. The difference though is stratospheric: now they don’t know if Oreshnik handing them a business card comes with a nuclear bomb on or not.

For all the inbuilt dementia of the current – exiting – administration, Americans who only understand the world via movies may have forgotten that it was Trump 1.0 who withdrew the US from the INF treaty, in 2019. If the US had remained, Russia would not have been able to develop and use Oreshnik.

But now it’s hazelnut salad time, everybody; a great way to regulate blood pressure.

RUSSIA’S NEW MISSILE CAN HIT ANY TARGET IN EUROPE - MISSILE FORCES CHIEF Karakayev who reveals state-of-the-art Oreshnik ("Hazel") medium-range ballistic missile so versatile it can be used against all manner of targets, and its range allows it to blast any military facility anywhere in Europe:

Based on the tasks set and the range of this weapon, it can hit targets across the entire territory of Europe, which distinguishes it from other types of long-range precision weapons. As you have already said, a mass attack with this type of weapon will be comparable to the use of nuclear weapons - Karakayev explains

Putin FULL SPEECH I 'Ukraine War Going Global. Russia Has The Right To Strike...':

yR-OSK7grOA
Russian President Vladimir Putin declared on Thursday that Moscow has the right to target military facilities in countries whose weapons are used by Ukraine to strike Russian territory. He emphasized that Russia would respond decisively in the event of further escalations.

America and the U.K. need to remember the Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 - when America did not want Russian missiles some 90 miles away from their own coastline! Yet American double standards were pushed and pushed over the past few decades in Ukraine …

RUSSIA USES NEW WEAPON, Most advanced missile ever used in war

All of Europe is freaking out over Russian missile

Yep, it’s a beauty and as I said, the NSA more than failed, they should be shut down for missing this. Russia has a new missile that is full on ICBM quality for conventional war use. And after Russia showed off with it yesterday, everyone in Britain is hiding under Big Ben.

Russia sent a clear message: There’s something other than nukes to worry about, nuclear bombs are not the latest and greatest thing anymore. I looked over all the videos carefully and it appears to me that one missile wrecked an entire factory that was over a mile long. With this missile, there’s not only approximately 60 explosive warheads to worry about, there’s also the “rod from God” effect from each warhead arriving so fast it burns brightly like a meteor on arrival. So there’s a kinetic explosion along with a chemical explosion in one whack.

So the question is, is Trump going to take office during World War 3?

I say no, because after THAT display by Russia, Alex Soros is hiding like a scared dog. Imagine if that missile was sent to Dimona. Imagine if that missile was sent to Parlaiment. From the English Channel. Or an aircraft carrier. In one show, Russia obsoleted the entire US navy.

Russia ended the Biden/Soros war bull**** very cheaply, even if that missile cost a lot. Rumor has it that Russia has about 50 more, with production at full tilt. That’s not a lot but more are rapidly being made (they started making them last summer) and 50 of those is already too much to deal with – every US aircraft carrier could be sunk along with much of the surrounding battle groups just with what Russia already has and no anti-missile system will stop anything.

Conclusion: GAME CHANGER.

U.S. Role In Ukrainian Coup Revealed: With Scott Horton

lvwpghjhARU
Wow. That is a lot to process. I knew the basics of how this war started (not what everyday media says it is) but this deeper dive was really an eye opener. Gonna have to watch again to take it all in.

U.S. Role In Ukrainian Coup Revealed: With Scott Horton (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=Scott%20Horton)


The role of the United States in the political upheaval in Ukraine, focusing on the removal of pro-Russian elected leader Viktor Yanukovych.
The situation is compared to the "Orange Revolution" of 2004, emphasizing how perceptions in Moscow were influenced by repeated interventions.
Yanukovych is portrayed not merely as a puppet of Putin, but as someone attempting to integrate Ukraine with the West, supported by Paul Manafort.
Eastern Ukrainian oligarchs sought closer ties with the EU due to frustration with Russian oligarchs after their companies were nationalized by the new government post-Orange Revolution.
Yanukovych's decision to lean towards the EU led to conflict with Russia, which threatened trade relations and offered substantial loans to Ukraine.
Protests erupted in Kiev when Yanukovych hesitated to sign the EU association agreement, supported by various Western organizations.
U.S. intervention was orchestrated rather than grassroots, with significant support from U.S. intelligence agencies undermining Yanukovych.
The conversation critiques American liberals for labeling right-wing figures as fascists while ignoring the existence of genuine fascist groups in Ukraine that the U.S. supported.
The strategic importance of Crimea to Russia and discusses the historical context of its transfer to Ukraine in 1954.
The narrative shifts to the role of right-wing factions in the protests, ultimately leading to Yanukovych's flight and the subsequent civil war in Ukraine.

The role of the United States in the political upheaval in Ukraine, particularly the removal of the elected leader, Viktor Yanukovych, who was seen as pro-Russian. This situation is compared to the Orange Revolution of 2004, highlighting how perceptions in Moscow would be affected by repeated interventions.

Viktor Yanukovych was not merely a puppet of Putin but rather someone who was trying to integrate Ukraine with the West, aided by Paul Manafort, who was hired to help him with this goal. Eastern Ukrainian oligarchs were frustrated with their treatment by Russian oligarchs and sought closer ties with the EU, especially after their companies were nationalized by the new government post-Orange Revolution. Yanukovych's decision to lean towards the EU led to a conflict with Russia, which threatened to cut trade relations and offered a substantial loan to Ukraine.

In contrast, the EU's offer came with strict austerity measures that would negatively impact the Ukrainian population, leading to widespread discontent. When Yanukovych hesitated to sign the EU association agreement, protests erupted in Kiev, supported by various Western organizations that funded independent media and provided logistical support for the demonstrations. The speaker emphasizes that the West's poor negotiation tactics contributed to the escalation of the situation, rather than Yanukovych being simply under Russian control.

U.S. and Western involvement in Ukraine's political upheaval during the 2013-2014 revolution. The speaker highlights how American intervention was not grassroots but rather orchestrated, with significant support from U.S. intelligence agencies like the CIA and MI6 working alongside Ukrainian intelligence to undermine President Yanukovych. A critical aspect of this intervention involved the radical right in Ukraine, specifically ultra-nationalist groups with historical ties to Nazi collaborators from World War II. These groups are not simply far-right in the American context but are actual neo-Nazi factions with a legacy of violence and admiration for the Nazis.

The tendency of American liberals to label various right-wing figures as fascists while ignoring the existence of genuine fascist groups in Ukraine that the U.S. has supported. It points out the irony of Western liberals wanting to arm these extremist factions while dismissing the real threats posed by their ideologies. The speaker stresses that these groups openly embrace their Nazi affiliations and continue to commit acts of violence against marginalized communities.

The political turmoil in Ukraine leading up to the 2014 conflict, describing the actions of various actors involved. They characterize certain groups as "guns for hire" and liken them to nefarious entities, suggesting a chaotic environment during the protests against President Yanukovich.

In February 2014, the European Union attempted to negotiate a deal for Yanukovich to hold early elections, which he accepted under pressure from Putin. However, when Yanukovich began to withdraw his forces, the police abandoned their posts, leading to a power vacuum. The narrative shifts to the role of right-wing factions in the protests, particularly a leader who threatened violence if Yanukovich did not resign. This ultimately led to the president fleeing, which the speaker describes as a "right-wing street coup" rather than a traditional coup d'état.

They reference George Friedman of Stratfor, who claimed the U.S. had heavily influenced the situation, and Henry Kissinger, who suggested the West was responsible for the crisis. The discussion also touches on the historical context of Crimea, including its transfer to Ukraine in 1954 and its significance to Russia, particularly after the 1991 independence of Ukraine. The speaker argues that the U.S. involvement in Ukraine's political upheaval and the push to remove Russian influence led to the subsequent crisis in Crimea and the broader conflict.

Zbigniew Brzezinski (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=Zbigniew%20Brzezinski) emphasizes the strategic importance of Crimea to Russia, arguing that without it, Russia is merely a regional power rather than a global one. He recounts a time when Putin humorously remarked that NATO sailors were welcome to visit Crimea instead of the other way around, indicating his unwillingness to relinquish control of the naval base there. The annexation of Crimea was executed with minimal violence, causing panic in Kiev as their plans to destabilize the region were thwarted.

Brzezinski highlights a conversation among U.S. officials about the need to act quickly while Putin was distracted by the Sochi Olympics. However, he claims that Putin was able to respond effectively, leading to the situation in Crimea. As unrest spread in Eastern Ukraine, locals began seizing government buildings, mirroring the protests in Kiev. Under U.S. pressure, the Ukrainian government launched a military operation against these groups, which escalated into a civil war.

This conflict saw the involvement of far-right groups in the Ukrainian military, who were called upon when regular forces were unwilling to fight. The result was a brutal war marked by violence and significant casualties. emphasizes the strategic importance of Crimea to Russia, arguing that without it, Russia is merely a regional power rather than a global one.

Crimea was annexed into the Russian Empire in 1783, the same year the US won the war of independence. Crimea has been Russian for as long as America has been a country, it is insane to think Russia would let it become a Western outpost in the Black Sea without a fight.

Under U.S. pressure, the Ukrainian government launched a military operation against these groups, which escalated into a civil war. This conflict saw the involvement of far-right groups in the Ukrainian military, who were called upon when regular forces were unwilling to fight. The result was a brutal war marked by violence and significant casualties.

West tries to blame Russia for Ukr Holodomor (genocide). Who were really the criminals? PI Facts:

Hw16xNPYLmg
Who were the counter revolutionaries from 1917 to 1922 and beyond ! 2: How about the crop failures of 1922/23 and also the year of 1932/33 ? 3: who was fighting for Hitler during the WWII ? Did you say Stepan Banderas ? Who admires this person even today ?

Famine in the USSR (1932-1933) was a mass famine that swept in 1932-1933 the vast territories of the USSR (mainly steppe regions) that were part of the Ukrainian SSR, the Russian SFSR (including the Kazakh ASSR, the regions of the Central Chernozem region, the North Caucasus, the Urals, the Volga Region, the Southern Urals, Southern Siberia).

Doctor of Biological Sciences N. N. Nazarenko wrote an article on this subject "Weeds, diseases and pests as factors of the famine of 1932-1933", in which he spoke about the mistakes of the Bolsheviks' agrarian policy since the October Revolution, and explained how illiterate agrarian policy led to such natural factors that caused a drop in crop quality, reproduction weeds and pests, a lot of crop diseases, when from 50 to 70% of the ground grain turned out to be unsuitable for use as food, which turned into the mass famine of 1932-1933

In 2013, the M. V. Ptukha Institute of Demography and Social Research of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine held an international scientific conference, “Famine in Ukraine in the First Half of the 20th Century: Causes and Results (1921–1923, 1932–1933, 1946–1947),” where estimates of demographic losses as a result of the 1932–1933 famine were published: the excess number of deaths in Ukraine was 3,917,800 people, in Russia — 3,264,600, in Kazakhstan — 1,258,200, and in total for the entire territory of the USSR — 8,731,900. The relative losses from the 1932–1933 famine were highest in Kazakhstan — 22.42%, in Ukraine — 12.92%, in Russia — 3.17%, and the average for the USSR — 5.42%

There was no deliberate starving of Ukrainian, there was general famine in Europe of that time it was a result of WWI and crisis afterwar, especially Russian civil war. Food was in short supply, but it was more profitable to sell food to the West, because Europe had more buying power, so many big land owners and even communities simply sold food to the West through Poland, similar to what is going on with Ukrainian wheat now. As the result Ukraine ran out of food. It happened before Russian civil war too, when many Russian nobles, who were biggest landowner export food to Europe even when there was a famine after WWI, which resulted at revolution, because pesants had nothing to eat, workers couldnt aford high price on food. There were famine everywhere in USSR, not only in Ukraine, and the Soviet eventually had to bring food from places like Khazakstan to save Ukraine. Yes local authority, many happens to be the choosen race like Kaganovich participated at profitable business of exporting food out of Ukraine, nothing personal just business.

In depth and large data at the link below. (It is from the ISW ~ Institute for the Study of War - It is clearly western orientated).

https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-november-21-2024

*They do not appear to be very competent analysts! (see bolded quote below)



Putin’s November 21 statement demonstrates that Moscow’s constant saber-rattling largely remains rhetorical.

Putin's recent threats against the West have centered on Western states allowing Ukraine to conduct long-range strikes into “Russian territory,” but Ukrainian forces have been striking what the Kremlin illegally defines as “Russian territory” for a long time.

The Kremlin has illegally defined occupied Crimea as part of Russia since Russia's illegal annexation of Crimea in 2014, and Ukrainian forces have routinely struck Crimea with US-provided ATACMS and UK-provided Storm Shadow missiles since April 2023.[7]

The Kremlin's application of its "red lines" rhetoric has been wildly inconsistent, undermining the overall Russian escalation narrative.[8] Putin consistently escalates the war on his own without regard to Western decisions and has consistently declined to retaliate every time Western states have deepened their support of Ukraine.

Putin previously threatened severe retaliation if Western states provided Ukraine with rocket artillery, tanks, warplanes, and the ability to strike into Russia, and Putin has constantly shifted the goalposts every time the West has called Putin’s bluff.

Neitherthe Oreshnik ballistic missile strike nor Putin's November 21 statement represent a significant inflection in Russian strike capabilities* or likeliness to use a nuclear weapon.

Russian forces fire nuclear-capable Iskander ballistic missiles, Kinzhal hypersonic ballistic missiles, and nuclear-capable Kh-101 cruise missiles against Ukraine on a regular basis. Previous Russian missile strikes have targeted industrial and critical infrastructure including within Dnipro City that caused greater damage.[9]

The only fundamentally new characteristic of the Russian strikes against Dnipro City on November 21 was the Oreshnik missile itself, which ostentatiously showcased reentry vehicles to amplify the spectacle of the strike and further imply a nuclear threat.[10][11] The West maintains credible deterrence options and Putin's nuclear saber-rattling should not constrain Western officials from choosing to further aid Ukraine.

US Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) Director Bill Burns cautioned Western policymakers against fearing Putin's nuclear rhetoric in September 2024, describing Putin as a "bully" who will "continue to saber rattle from time to time."[12]

Says it all, really. He's lucky they kept him alive. They will have made a point of doing this of course, and releasing the footage, as an exercise in humiliation, and to ram home the point that this is a NATO exercise, and as we know, Britain are most likely the principal protagonists behind this Kursk "safari".

From Slavyangrad on Telegram (https://t.me/Slavyangrad/113845) discussing the likely Russian death toll from the SMO: it sounds entirely plausible to me:

---



About the losses in SMO

The subject we avoided for a long time, partly due to fear of what we would find, and partly because of lack of data. But piece by piece, day by day, we managed to bring the puzzle together, more or less precise. We think that the margin of error is minimal.

Regarding Ukraine, we had great help from people who tracked published obituaries of dead AFU soldiers, and we can classify them as confirmed dead from the conflict. The figure, till November 15th, stood at 532.000 dead AFU soldiers and 8.500 officers (included in the total lost). Out of calculation are, of course, those missing in action of AFU, whose numbers vary but go as high as 90.000. Some even count more, but since we don't have the slightest idea how to obtain that data (Ukraine for sure would not give it to us) we decided to exclude them from this text, but we emphasize the significant number in that category.

Regarding Russian casualties, the situation has become more clear recently. Until the November 15th, 78,329 dead soldiers of all Russian Armed Forces are registered. In 2022, the average age was 22 years; in 2023 - 34, and this year - 38. The biggest losses are suffered by mechanized infantry and Airborne troops. Estimates varied, but since the beginning of the SMO, more than 2 million soldiers went through the Russian Armed Forces of all branches. Among 300.000 mobilized men, the fatality rate stood at 3,2% which is quite acceptable for the conflict of this size.

The number of dead in regions of Russia is mostly equal and in proportion to the population of said regions, except Moscow, due to the size of the population. There is no big difference between poor and rich regions and those where the majority is the Russian population or ethnic minorities. The exception is Baskiria, with 3.178 dead, and Chechnya, with only 285. We doubt the last figure since Chechens participated in some big battles, but we couldn't pull out much better than this.

The composition of the dead is divided into the following categories


Volunteers - 16551
Convicts - 14366
Professional soldiers - 14362
Mobilized - 9622
Mercenaries - 2627
Unknown - 20803


The ratio of dead AFU versus Russian Army is with these numbers 6,7:1 which pretty much goes in line with earlier statements of Russian officials. But if we add AFU missing (and presumed dead - 90.000 ) we have a ratio of 7,9:1. No doubt, the ratio would only get worse for AFU since they are suffering very heavy losses in all those cauldrons, not evacuating wounded and heaving blocking detachments.

Despite the loss of lives being big, we can be satisfied since, for 3 years, we have been practically waging war against the entire West. And we are doing it very well. We will prevail. Victory will be ours.

Oreshnik Most Potent Non Nuclear Weapon; Biden West Seek More Escalation, Russia

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTFX-RYrtlo&ab_channel=AlexanderMercouris (47:37)
Latest from the (excellent as always) Alexander Mercouris of TheDuran. Alexander says in the closing minute that we have a very difficult two months ahead of us.

Ukraine War: Selling Stalemate and Prolonging Pain

FWIW I emailed Kier Starmer today urging him to instigate peace talks with Russia at the soonest opportunity. I doubt whether he'll even see it and will be put in the sub-directory with all the rest, and also emailed my MP again. It doesn't hurt to reiterate especially when the stakes are so high.
https://contact.no10.gov.uk/

PS: It just occurred to me that these Oreshnik missiles travelling faster than the speed of sound will create huge sonic booms and shock waves. I'm surprised that the sheer force of this power doesn't set them off before they hit their targets.

[ExomatrixTV]

For all new people coming here in this particular Project Avalon Forum Thread ... I made a super simplified summary of a very complex issue:

Let's begin:

NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)/CIA/EU are responsible for pushing mass suicide missions ... sacrificing** 10,000s Ukrainian fathers, uncles, sons, husbands etc. and many are forced to fight for a totally corrupt undemocratic tyrants that hijacked the country!

What we all have learned by now is that tanks/armored vehicles are useless in any 2023-2024 war ... Because of much cheaper weaponized drones warfare! (Easier to mass produce).

And maybe USA/UK/Germany (NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)) knows that and want to get rid of the old stuff, dumping it in Ukraine calling it : "help" to fight for "Democracy" = double deception & insanity! ... All done to eventually invest new generation warfare equipment of all kinds domestically ... (Semi-) autonomous future A.I. (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?102409-A.I.-is-Progressing-Faster-Than-You-Think-) warfare included.


I know the chance of the following scenario ever to going to happen is extremely slim (near zero!) but hear me out:

Imagine if Zelensky decides to confess he was/is paid & manipulated by the totally corrupt part of NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) with certain "promises", he admits he FEARS for his life and the safety of his loved ones because of the Ukrainian Neo-Nazis called AZOF Brigade (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azov_Brigade) having a track record of killing 1000s of Russian Civilians in the 2010s up to now violating the Minsk Agreements (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minsk_agreements) for years and it gotten worse and worse.

That was KNOWN even reported by the western mass media, but refusing to call it provoking a War with Russia! ... Mass media admitting multiple times on record (before the war started) that Ukraine is the most corrupt nation of all nations, Eurasia (Europe/Asia).

Admitting he knew Ukraine has no chance of winning but rely heavily on becoming a "NATO member" >>> even if that becomes a reality, there is no guarantee that "all goes well" for humanity as a whole! ... Meaning: WW3 will start with global mutual nuclear destruction as a result.

Imagine he admits crushing all Ukrainian dissenting voices, including all common sense people in Ukraine! ... dismantling all kinds of Ukrainian: opposition, media, multiple democratic political parties in Ukraine which is obvious the opposite of "Defending Democracy".

On top of all that, Ukrainian adult males (that are not represented anymore) were forced to use weapons in a totally useless, hopless, unwinnable war! ... And many Russian soldiers/officers KNOWS THAT ... that is why they show countless videos how they treat Ukrainian soldiers waving a white flag to surrender with great respect & decency! <<< but you will not see that in any pro-NATO Western Media, they do not care about the unrepresented Ukrainians being sacrificed to serve a bigger "New World Order (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/forumdisplay.php?163-The-New-World-Order)" plan.

How many Ukrainian children lost their: father, brother & uncle ... Fathers losing their sons NOT because they were against Russia, but they were not represented anymore and FORCED to join the totally insane war PUSHED by all Pro-NATO mass media worldwide! <<< in my view, they all have blood on their hands!

Remember Hillary Clinton repeating over and over the blatant lie that what the Russians did was so called: "unprovoked" and how the mass media only promotes a certain narrative to push Ukraine over the cliff!

How much of the billions of US/EU Tax money spend in Ukraine was not spent for the Ukrainians at all!

Imagine if Zelensky will expose it all and tell the truth for a change,"even asking for forgiveness" that 10,000s died needlessly. 10,000s of fathers, brothers, sons, uncles, husbands.

After confessing all that, Zelensky will not survive that not only because of the totally ruthless Ukrainian Neo-Nazis AZOF Brigade, but he will most likely be killed by the rage of almost all (unrepresented) Ukrainians! ... and maybe he knows that!


In my view, the biggest systematic push of a tunnel vision "Russia Phobia (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118563-Russophobia-why-do-so-many-people-in-the-west-hate-and-fear-Russia)" narratives started, when Hillary Clinton openly threatened to use Nuclear weapons if Russia "interferes" with the 2016 elections on multiple levels ... not mentioning that anything can be considered "interference" even TELLING THE TRUTH via RT dot com (https://rumble.com/c/RTNews) or RT on YouTube ... Hillary Clinton quote: "We Are Losing The Information War (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1fGWuillRXM)"
The ultra hypocrisy of The USA is extreme harrowing knowing how they manipulated almost all elections in all countries worldwide!
So when a different source other than western Mainstream Media (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?120654-Why-We-Don-t-Trust-Mainstream-Media-The-Munk-Debates) sharing hard verifiable truths & facts that HAVE an impact on how people think & judge how they are "governed" >>> will be seen as an "election intervention" even if it is 100% the truth that is exposed!

Many hard hitting uncovered truths that have been shared on RT (Russia Today) were ALREADY shared on Alex Jones's infowars (https://www.infowars.com) and countless other American based independent alternative media outlets ... Most, if not all were originally investigated & exposed by Americans not Russians >>> the moment RT used some of it Hillary claimed that is "proof" that Alternative Media is spreading "Russian Propaganda" WHICH IS A BLATANT LIE! ... It was RT using real independent research done by Americans and HELPS better understand how we all get scrwed on this (fcked up) planet done by lying psychopathic control freaks & dystopian technocrats (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118748-Top-10-Creepiest-Most-Dystopian-Things-Pushed-By-The-World-Economic-Forum).

Can anyone tell me how much percent of all Ukrainians (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?114491-WW3-Ukraine-US-vs.-Donbass-Russia&p=1585308#post1585308) feel they are really "represented" correctly by the psychopath called Volodymyr Zelenskyy (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=Volodymyr%20Zelenskyy) ... Do you really think he represents "the majority" or "the will of all Ukranians" ?? or is it more likely he represents an evil paranoid organization called NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)?

How many Ukrainians remembered Zelenskyy 2019 election promises that he wants to be on good terms with Russia turned out to be a big fat lie to get more votes ... Western Ukraine violating the Minsk Agreement (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minsk_agreements) for years and it gotten worse and worse and calling any response from Russia "unprovoked" ...

Lie after lie after lie, so many refuse to work with him so he became desperate and accepted to use real (descendants of) Nazis called: AZOV Brigade (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azov_Brigade) "fighting for democracy" which is another blatant lie!

Just study how many political opposition parties in Ukraine were made illegal, how many Orthodox Christian Churches were destroyed or forbidden, how many critical journalists were put in jail and/or murdered, how many Ukrainian Radio & TV stations were taken over or destroyed? ...

It seems like NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) puppet Zelenskyy did all that what NeoCons (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=NeoCons) (fake republicans) & NeoLibs (fake left (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?122120-15-Unavoidable-Questions-Haunting-Me-As-A-Classic-Liberal-Every-Day-)) in the USA is accusing Putin of "doing"... and still call Russian intervention "unprovoked"?

All this horror would not be possible if we had a real independent press with real investigative journalists with editorial staff that are not hijacked by criminals posing as "for the greater good" CFR (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=CFR)/CIA/NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)/WEF (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118748-Top-10-Creepiest-Most-Dystopian-Things-Pushed-By-The-World-Economic-Forum)/Bilderberg Group (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?123103-Bilderberg-Conference-Madrid-Spain-May-30th-to-June-2nd-2024) controlling unaccountable NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries) operations ... So many Ukrainian fathers, sons, uncles that do not feel represented by psychopath Zelenskyy are forced to be part of mass suicide missions in an unwinnable proxy war.

10,000s people died and even more crippled for life or severe wounded ... How many children lost a father, how many fathers lost his son, wives losing their husband ... all done to make BlackRock (https://www.weforum.org/organizations/blackrock-inc/) & Vanguard (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=vanguard%20WEF) richer (both are part of WEF (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118748-Top-10-Creepiest-Most-Dystopian-Things-Pushed-By-The-World-Economic-Forum)) paid by EU/USA tax dollars having extreme debt where paying for the yearly interest of the national US debt (https://www.usdebtclock.org) is now higher than the yearly US military budget. .

It is one big money scam (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military%E2%80%93industrial_complex) ... Lockheed Martin Corporation, Raytheon Technologies, Northrop Grumman Corporations & General Dynamics Corporation are the biggest profiteers from proxy wars like this and they all PAY puppet politicians not to question this insanity! ... Most, if not all, mainstream media refuse to ask the hard questions and call you a "Putin Apologist" and/or a "Traitor" if you dare to question anyone who are part of CFR (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=CFR)/CIA/NATO (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?117876-Behind-NATO--s-cognitive-warfare.-Battle-for-your-brain-waged-by-Western-militaries)/WEF (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?118748-Top-10-Creepiest-Most-Dystopian-Things-Pushed-By-The-World-Economic-Forum)/Bilderberg Group (https://projectavalon.net/forum4/showthread.php?123103-Bilderberg-Conference-Madrid-Spain-May-30th-to-June-2nd-2024) in relation to Ukraine Policies.

Former UK 🇬🇧 Military Pilot Tim Davies (https://www.fastjetperformance.com/), addresses accusations of being a Putin apologist while expressing a nuanced view on the situation involving Russia and Ukraine. They emphasize the importance of understanding historical context, particularly NATO's expansion since the 1990s, which has contributed to tensions with Russia. The speaker notes that Putin's perspective is shaped by a desire for strength and stability, contrasting it with what he perceives as Western "degeneracy." They recount key historical events, such as the reunification of Berlin and promises made regarding NATO's eastward expansion, which they argue have been broken. The discussion also touches on the geopolitical dynamics of NATO membership, the military-industrial complex, and the implications for countries that join NATO, highlighting the financial benefits for the U.S. defense industry.

The economic dynamics of consumer spending in the U.S. and its role in sustaining the economy, alongside the military expenditures required to maintain defense capabilities. The narrative then shifts to Ukraine's political history, starting with Viktor Yanukovych's rise to power in 2004, following a CIA-backed coup. Yanukovych is later replaced by Yulia Tymoshenko during the Orange Revolution, and subsequently, Yanukovych returns to power in 2010, aligning closely with Russia. In 2014, the pro-Western leader Petro Poroshenko takes over, seeking closer ties with the European Union and NATO. The speaker emphasizes the logistical challenges Russia faces in a potential conflict on its borders, suggesting that the U.S. has the upper hand in logistics. The speaker predicts that Russia will take a significant portion of Ukraine as a buffer zone and asserts that defeating Russia in Ukraine is unlikely. The discussion also touches on Volodymyr Zelensky's rise to power, portraying him as a comedian turned politician with questionable motives. The speaker delves into historical ties between Russia and Ukraine, noting that many Russians view Ukraine, particularly Kiev, as the birthplace of Russia. The narrative continues with the leasing of Crimea by Russia from Ukraine in 2010, which set the stage for Russia's annexation of Crimea in 2014 following a shift in Ukraine's political alignment.

The complex situation in Ukraine, particularly focusing on the annexation of Crimea by Russia without any shots being fired and the ongoing civil war in Eastern Ukraine between Russian-backed separatists and Western-backed Ukrainians. They highlight the cultural ties between Russians and Ukrainians, referring to them as "Slavic brothers," and express frustration over the conflict, describing it as a nightmare. The speaker explains the water supply issues in Crimea due to Ukraine shutting off water access, exacerbating the region's challenges. They mention that in 2022, Ukraine's President Zelensky agreed to be neutral in response to Russia's demands to avoid American weapon systems near its borders. The speaker then shifts to discuss geopolitical dynamics, referencing the Monroe Doctrine and criticizing perceived Western hypocrisy in international relations, particularly regarding NATO. They also touch on the Nord Stream 2 pipeline incident, suggesting it was an act of war that has negatively impacted Germany's economy. The speaker expresses disdain for socialist policies and discusses the involvement of financial institutions like BlackRock in Ukraine's reconstruction. Finally, they talk about the Storm Shadow missile system used by Ukraine, explaining its targeting capabilities and expressing skepticism about the UK's military involvement against Russia, questioning the legitimacy of such actions without parliamentary approval.

The ongoing tensions between Western nations and Russia, particularly criticizing the West for engaging in a proxy war without openly declaring war. They mention the potential consequences of Western missile systems being deployed and reference Putin's defensive stance, suggesting he views his actions as necessary to protect the Russian people from what he perceives as moral decline in the West. The speaker expresses a belief that Western leadership is weak and focused on materialism rather than community and family values. They conclude by inviting viewers to share their thoughts in the comments and acknowledge the rainy weather affecting their location.

Tim Davies (https://rumble.com/search/all?q=Tim%20Davies), a former UK military pilot, has provided a detailed perspective on the Russia-Ukraine conflict, emphasizing the historical and geopolitical nuances that contribute to the current situation. Here are key points from his analysis:


NATO's Expansion and Historical Context: Davies points out that NATO's expansion eastward post-Cold War has significantly contributed to tensions with Russia. This expansion, which began in the 1990s, was perceived by Russia as a direct threat to its security, especially given the broken promises concerning NATO's growth into Eastern Europe after the reunification of Germany.
Putin's Perspective: He frames Putin's actions within a context where the Russian leader sees himself as defending Russian stability against what he considers Western "degeneracy." This viewpoint suggests a cultural and ideological clash, with Putin aiming to preserve traditional Russian values against Western liberalism.
Ukrainian Political Dynamics: Davies discusses the political shifts in Ukraine, from the pro-Russian Viktor Yanukovych to the pro-Western Petro Poroshenko after the 2014 coup. He mentions Volodymyr Zelensky's rise, depicting it as unexpected and somewhat opportunistic, especially given Zelensky's background as a comedian.
Geopolitical Strategy: The speaker suggests that Russia might seek to control parts of Ukraine as a buffer zone, acknowledging the logistical advantage the U.S. might have but also the difficulty of outright defeating Russia militarily on its doorstep.
Cultural and Historical Ties: Highlighting the deep cultural connections between Russians and Ukrainians, Davies describes the conflict as tragic, referring to them as "Slavic brothers." He also discusses the strategic importance of Crimea, not only for its cultural significance but also for its military value.
Western Involvement and Critique: There is a critique of Western involvement, particularly regarding the deployment of missile systems like the Storm Shadow, questioning the legality and ethics of such actions without clear parliamentary approval. Davies also touches on economic motives, like the involvement of BlackRock in Ukraine, suggesting economic interests might be overshadowing humanitarian ones.
Proxy War & Allegations: The narrative includes the notion that the West, especially the U.S. and UK, are involved in a proxy war with Russia through Ukraine, without formally declaring war. The discussion of incidents like the Nord Stream 2 pipeline sabotage is brought up to underline perceived Western aggressions.

Davies's commentary invites viewers to consider these complexities, suggesting that the conflict isn't just about current military actions but is deeply rooted in history, cultural identity, and geopolitical strategy. His views reflect a skepticism towards Western policy while acknowledging the aggressive stance taken by Russia, particularly under Putin's leadership, in response to these perceived threats.

This nuanced exploration by Davies does not endorse any side outright but rather seeks to highlight the multifaceted nature of the conflict, urging for a more comprehensive understanding beyond simplified narratives.

Oreshnik and US escalation w/ Brian Berletic (Live)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ntHoxWlNaw4&ab_channel=TheDuran
Really good video with Brian Berletic (who's just left the discussion) and which is still streaming live with Alex and Alexander. What was especially pertinent was the general feeling that America's primary interest is their own supremacy in the world and it's that attitude which is driving and distorting the true position of what is happening in Ukraine. Have to say that imo this is exactly the same with the UK and EU, ie. they've bought into their own sense of importance and don't realise that they're actually at check-mate.

Because we watch so many re-runs, we are also still stuck in the Fourth Crusade (https://southfront.press/serbian-filmmaker-reports-on-the-reality-of-orthodox-christians-in-ukraine/):




Written by Lucas Leiroz, member of the BRICS Journalists Association, researcher at the Center for Geostrategic Studies, geopolitical consultant

The tragic situation of the Orthodox Church in Ukraine is beginning to gain the attention of many people around the world. Not only are activists condemning the serious crimes committed by the Kiev regime, but also artists, journalists and filmmakers are joining efforts to expose the truth about religious persecution in today’s Ukraine.

Recently, the famous Serbian filmmaker Emir Kusturica released the film “People of Christ”, exposing the reality of anti-Christian policies in Ukraine. The film shows the personal stories of various Orthodox Christians in Ukraine, including priests, missionaries, monks and ordinary believers, who inform on the persecution they are currently suffered.

As an Orthodox Christian himself, Kusturica showed feelings of strong compassion for his fellow believers in Ukraine. He stated that Ukraine had joined a war waged by the West against Orthodoxy and emphasized how the traditional Christian religion is a common tie among Slavic peoples, also commenting on how this faith is strong in Serbia – a country historically targeted with attacks and sanctions by the West.

Furthermore, the producer also said that, in addition to conventional measures, the West also tries to attack the religious sentiments of the Slavs through soft power, imposing an anti-traditional cultural agenda that, despite the support of some Westernized politicians and local saboteurs, is not accepted by the majority of the people.

“This film… it is about God and man. The soul of Ukraine today is wounded, the Ukrainian government persecutes Christ Himself (…) Ukrainians have been sold a war [by the West] they bought it. [For them] Orthodoxy is the number one enemy in the world (…) In Serbia, it seems to me, no matter how much Western politicians… try to kill God in us, with the help of the so-called soft power, which after the broadcasting of the opening of the Olympic Games in Paris has sharply manifested itself – it is impossible,” he said.

The film has received many positive reviews from both film critics and experts on Ukrainian affairs, who emphasize how Kusturica’s work is truly in line with the reality of the country. For example, American political analyst Oliver Martin, a columnist for the channel “Ukraine Policy Matters” wrote a review of the film, emphasizing how it provides a “deeply emotional experience” based on facts about Ukraine’s situation.

According to Oliver, the film allows spectators to reflect on the intense impact of religious persecution, going beyond the Ukrainian case. The analyst explains that “People of Christ” brings interesting facts to investigate how a people united by common feelings of faith react to the imposition of an unpopular political and cultural agenda, with religion being a vital force in maintaining the unity of citizens in times of war and oppression.

“It’s heartbreaking to see how a government can wield its power to suppress a segment of its own population based on perceived loyalties. This creates an environment where believers are not only divided but also marginalized, forcing them to navigate their faith in a climate of fear and uncertainty. The film’s exploration of faith under duress made me acutely aware of the broader implications of such persecution. It raises questions about what it means to be united in faith when one’s government actively seeks to divide its people. The message that resonated with me is that faith should be a source of strength and unity, not division and conflict,” he said in his article about the film.

As the film becomes more popular, it is likely that it will be subject to further assessment, both from experts recommending it and from Western and Ukrainian propagandists trying to discredit it. In fact, there are less and less arguments for the Kiev regime to maintain its intolerant stance towards the Orthodox religion. Even Ukrainian politicians who defended the regime have been forced to abandon their posts and flee the country in order to continue practicing their faith. The situation is reaching an intolerable level that is likely to have many deep social impacts.

Religion is not a mere individual matter, but a historical and social reality that cannot be changed so easily. Religious beliefs and sentiments remain in people for generations, regardless of what the government does against them. The mentality of the entire Ukrainian people is rooted in traditional Orthodox concepts, so the violence carried out by the regime against clergy and believers will certainly be met with strong popular disapproval.

By persecuting the faith of 80% of its people, the neo-Nazi regime is simply accelerating its own collapse, inducing more and more citizens to a dissident stance and also losing part of its international support.

🇺🇦🏳️ Ukrainian POW: AFU tank units suffer personnel shortage

AFU POW Aleksandr Priymachuk says that 400 men of State Transport Special Service (DSST) were reassigned to the 17th Tank Brigade.

’They gathered 400 men form the DSST, brought us to some forest and as someone says, ’sold’ us to the 17th Tank Brigade,’ said Priymachuk. He explained that it was a result of personnel shortage.

He added, that COs used to intimidate the AFU servicemen.

’My company leader said that an AWOL is considered as you escaped with a gun. You won't get home, you'll be sent to positions as cannon fodder,’ recalls the POW words of the CO.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 Kupyansk-Svatovsk direction: fighting in Kupyansk and possible sortie of the Russian Armed Forces beyond Oskol

Situation by the end of November 25, 2024

Heavy fighting continues in several areas in the Kupyansk direction.

▪️On the eastern outskirts of Kupyansk, Russian assault groups are trying to advance and are repelling enemy attacks. The exact control zone has not yet been established, and text messages about battles for a particular area often contradict each other.

▪️Against this background, very curious news appeared about the alleged crossing of the Oskol River in the Dvurechnaya area. The last attempt to gain a foothold on that bank was in May 2023, when one of the reconnaissance groups took the positions of Ukrainian formations, driving them off the ridge of the chalk mountains.

At the same time, there were statements about the liberation of Novomlynsk. It later turned out that the settlement was not liberated, and it was not possible to hold on to the occupied bridgehead near Dvurechnaya , and after short battles, the Russian Armed Forces retreated across the river. Now, apparently, the story with the mini-bridgehead has repeated itself.

▪️In the area of ​​Kolesnikovka and Zagryzovo, fighting also continues. Russian troops are trying to expand the zone of control on the eastern bank of the Oskol, and Ukrainian formations are transferring reinforcements and often counterattacking.

▪️To the west of Stelmakhovka, units of the Russian Armed Forces have advanced in the direction of Lozovoye, as well as to the west of Artemovka and Rozovka, occupying forest belts on the heights along the western bank of the Zherebets River. There is no talk of any deep breakthrough, but the enemy continues to lose territory on the left bank of the Oskol.

TUCKER: I used to think Tony Blinken was running the White House. Now, I think it is Satan himself.

“I really think that you’ve got dark forces in charge.”

Tucker says the only reason the US would approve anti-personnel mines and long-range missiles against Russian forces is to “kill innocents, period.”

“That’s the only effect,” Carlson stressed.

“And they know that. And so they’re doing it anyway because killing is the point. So it’s evil. I think we should say that. I don’t think it’s a matter of defending democracy. The president of Ukraine is not elected. He’s a dictator. He literally passed his term and kept serving,” Carlson continued.

“And that country shut down a Christian denomination — put priests in jail. How many more markers of dictatorship do you need to call it what it is? Which is totalitarian. So everything about it is horrifying.”

🇺🇸🇺🇦⚔️🇷🇺 The White House Strategic Communications Coordinator, John Kirby, [finally] officially confirmed for the first time today that Ukraine has permission to use American long-range ATACMS missiles for strikes in the Kursk region and "near it," claiming this as a necessity for self-defense.

"Right now, they have the capability to use ATACMS for self-defense in cases of urgent need. And right now, you know, clearly, that is what is happening in and around Kursk and the Kursk region," Kirby told journalists during a briefing.

NATO is discussing launching pre-emptive "high-precision strikes" on Russian territory in the event of armed conflict with alliance countries, the head of the bloc's military committee, Admiral Rob Bauer, said.

He described as positive that NATO has changed its stance on its nature as a defensive alliance. In addition, the perception of the view that we need to "sit back and wait to be attacked" and only then react has changed.

"It is smarter not to wait but to hit the launchers in Russia in case Russia attacks us." A combination of precision strikes is needed to disable the systems that are being used to attack us, and we must strike first."

‼️🇷🇺🇺🇦Kurakhovskoye direction is the most difficult now, there are “threats” in the Zaporizhzhya direction, - Zelensky

▪️Following the meeting with the commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Syrsky, Zelensky made a number of propaganda statements on the situation at the front.
▪️“Zaporizhzhya direction - we see threats, our Defense Forces of Ukraine are in control of the situation.”
▪️In the Kurakhovo direction, where the Russian Armed Forces are actively advancing, and the Armed Forces of Ukraine are fleeing - “we are working to strengthen our positions,” the clown said.
▪️Regarding the Kursk operation, where the Armed Forces of Ukraine have already been driven out of 60% of the territories and suffered colossal losses, Zelensky said that Ukraine's task is to “destroy the Russian potential in the border area as much as possible.”
➖It is believed that the purpose of this failed invasion is to use it as a trump card in negotiations.

🇷🇴 The winner of the first round of the presidential elections in Romania, Calin Georgescu, said that Romanians should not get involved in the conflict in Ukraine:

"
We need to talk about peace. Please show some sensitivity. [How far does a peace settlement between Russia and Ukraine go?] I am talking about our country, you are talking about other countries. I have told you before that we have no reason to interfere, it is not our business. I think we should pay more attention to the Romanian people and only the Romanian people, and we should have a peace strategy." - FRWL

🇷🇺🧑‍🔧🇩🇪 Russian soldiers restored a German Leopard 2A4 which now operates at the frontline
Ammunition and spare parts are available in considerable quantities.
Thanks to the German taxpayers the Russian army is not running out of tanks.
It should also be said that it is well known in Germany that Russian mechanics are able to repair every conceivable vehicle without manuals.

🇷🇺📉🇪🇺 European politicians' poll ratings plummet after Putin's speech

Putin's use of “nutshell” and a warning from the Russian president have undermined the confidence of voters in Europe, Euronews has learned.

The impression is that it is easier for the people we elected to send us to the other side of the world than to solve their countries' economic problems and seek cooperation with Russia,” commented the publication's editor-in-chief, Jeremy Fleming.

How does he manage to be believed?
Perhaps because he tells the truth?

Russia gave OPCW over 30 reports proving Ukraine used banned substances, official says

Kirill Lysogorsky noted that "the Kiev regime continues to systematically use toxic chemicals and chemical riot control agents"

THE HAGUE, November 25. /TASS/. Russia provided the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons with at least 30 diplomatic notes that prove Ukraine's use of banned chemicals, the country’s Deputy Industry and Trade Minister Kirill Lysogorsky said.

"The Kiev regime continues to systematically use toxic chemicals and chemical riot control agents against the Russian Armed Forces, civilians and the leadership of Russian regions in the zone of the special military operation," he said at the 29th Conference of the States Parties of the OPCW. "Relevant proof, which was based on sample analyses, has been provided to the OPCW Technical Secretariat for distribution to States Parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention, as well as to the UN Security Council and the UN General Assembly."

"More than 30 such notes have already been handed over," the official went on to say. "Recently, literally in October and November, two notes were handed over to provide proof of the use of banned chemicals by the Ukrainian armed forces."

Lysogorsky asked the technical secretariat and OPCW member states to treat this information as responsibly as possible.

"The perpetrators of these crimes must be subjected to just punishment," he said.

Russia’s launch of new missile illustrated assured retaliation capability, lawmaker says

Andrey Kartapolov also noted that the enemy currently has no defenses against the Oreshnik.

MOSCOW, November 25. /TASS/. Moscow’s launch of its latest intermediate-range missile, the Oreshnik, put on display the assured retaliation that will follow any aggression against Russia and its allies, State Duma Defense Committee Chairman Andrey Kartapolov said.

"Our revamped nuclear doctrine, in its second chapter, clearly states that the main goal of nuclear deterrence is for adversaries to realize the inevitability of consequences for making any decisions to start aggression against the Russian Federation and/or its allies, the inevitability of retaliation. Oreshnik now has shown the inevitability of such retaliation," he said on Rossiya-1 television.

Kartapolov also said the enemy currently has no defenses against the Oreshnik.

"There is nothing that will stop this missile," he stated.

Russian President Vladimir Putin said on November 21 that Russia fired its newest Oreshnik intermediate-range ballistic missile with a non-nuclear warhead at a Ukrainian defense industry facility in the city of Dnepr. According to the president, it was a response to strikes into Russian territory with UK and UK weapons. The Russian leader said the West could bring upon itself heavy consequences, should its inflammatory policies prompt further escalation of the conflict.

Three decades ago it was well understood that stranding 12 million Russians in Ukraine was going to end badly. The situation remained relatively stable, until the US decided that exploiting Ukrainian nationalism would make a fantastic weapon against Russia. Had the US kept its nose out of Kiev's business, the issue of minority Russian rights would have been resolved peacefully and an ocean of blood would have not gotten spilled. Now thanks to Washington's nasty nasty work, the most powerful alliance in history has been formed to oppose it. Brzezinski said the most dangerous threat to US security was a coalition of China and Russia, united not by ideology but by complementary grievances, and now that has become reality for Washington. Bravo to Nuland and her fellow neocons.

Russia Ukraine War: Putin Warns West as Russia Intensifies Fighting:

KnmuRuAqcnQ
The Russia-Ukraine conflict is reaching new levels of intensity, with President Vladimir Putin warning the West against continued support for Ukraine. Putin claims the war now has "global elements" after Russia deployed hypersonic missiles in response to long-range weapons supplied to Ukraine by the US and its allies. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky calls for urgent action, stressing the need for new air defence systems to counter increasing Russian aggression. Reports also suggest Russia is recruiting Yemeni mercenaries to bolster its forces. As the war escalates, the stakes grow higher for both Ukraine and its global supporters.

What do you think about this Nukes to Ukraine scuttlebutt, Biden's team is floating the idea of supplying nuclear weapons so that Ukraine has some leverage, absolute madness but they are getting desperate

[Bill Ryan]

What do you think about this Nukes to Ukraine scuttlebutt, Biden's team is floating the idea of supplying nuclear weapons so that Ukraine has some leverage, absolute madness but they are getting desperateThe Russians would know, and would never allow that to happen. Putin has already stated that in such an event the Russians would act immediately.*

* A misconception some may have is that if you strike (e.g.) a nuclear warhead with a regular explosive missile, you don't get a nuclear explosion. It's not like blowing up an ammunition depot. All you get is a nuclear warhead in small destroyed pieces which can't possibly function. To make a nuclear device explode, a very complex and ultra-precise detonation mechanism has to be activated, and that's the only thing that will do it.

[Mike Gorman]

Thanks Bill, I am suffering with a cold at the moment and any news like this is making me feel anxious, I'll be better in a few days-of course, Putin would act immediately, believe it or not I feel reassured!
