Russia denies striking Poland
Russia has not carried out any strikes against targets near the Polish-Ukrainian border, the defense ministry in Moscow said on Tuesday, following reports of a missile striking the village of Przewodow and killing two civilians.
Some western media outlets and politicians have claimed that Russia is responsible for the incident. However, no evidence has been provided to support such assertions.
Missile fragments, photos of which were published by Polish media on the scene, “have nothing to do with Russian weapons,” the Russian Defense Ministry said.
Statements by Polish media and officials about the alleged ‘Russian’ missiles falling in the area of the village of Przewodow are “a deliberate provocation in order to escalate the situation,” the Russian military added.

Poland has convened an emergency meeting of its national security council on Tuesday evening after reports that at least two civilians were killed when one or more missiles struck the village in the Lublin region, just across the border with Ukraine.
While AP reported that Russian missiles had crossed into Poland, citing an unnamed “senior US intelligence official,” the Pentagon declined to corroborate the claim.
“I can tell you that we don't have any information at this time to corroborate those reports and are looking into this further,” Air Force Brigadier General Patrick Ryder told reporters, when asked about the Przewodow incident.
The Polish government spokesman Piotr Mueller called on the media and the public “not to publish unconfirmed information.”
Officials from the Baltic states blamed Russia and claimed that Poland should invoke NATO’s Article 5 in retaliation. Meanwhile, Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky accused Russia of “terrorism” and said NATO needed to “act” against this “attack on collective security.”

Ukraine halts Russian oil deliveries to Hungary
Russian oil has stopped flowing to Hungary through the “Druzhba” (Friendship) pipeline transiting Ukraine, the Hungarian oil company MOL confirmed on Tuesday evening.
The official reason given by the Ukrainian side was that a Russian air strike hit a transformer station near the border with Belarus, which supplies electricity to one of the pumping stations, needed for operations.
Ukraine has also informed Russia’s Transneft that service was suspended due to a “drop in voltage,” according to Igor Demin, a spokesman for the Russian oil giant.
Crude oil deliveries to Hungary, Czechia and Slovakia have been “temporarily halted,” MOL said in a statement.
“We are monitoring the events and, together with the Ukrainian partners, we are examining the conditions for restarting the Friendship pipeline,” the Hungarian oil company added.

According to MOL, there were adequate reserves of oil to ensure the operations of the Szahahalombatta refinery until the pipeline is back in service.
Hungarian PM Viktor Orban has called an emergency meeting of the national security council, to address both the pipeline shutdown and claims that a stray Russian missile had struck a village in Poland, according to his spokesman Bertalan Havasi.
Although the EU banned the imports of Russian oil by sea in June, Brussels carved out an exemption for Hungary, Czechia and Slovakia to continue buying oil from Moscow via the pipeline.
Built in the 1960s, Druzhba runs over 4,000 kilometers from Tatarstan in Russia to Hungary and what used to be East Germany and Czechoslovakia. Some 1,490 km of the pipeline pass through the territory of Ukraine. The pipeline splits in Uzhgorod to Druzhba-1, which goes to present-day Slovakia, and Druzhba-2, which goes to Hungary.

Russia to continue operation in Ukraine, as Kiev does not want to negotiate — Kremlin
"For now, we do not see a negotiating table," Dmitry Peskov said
MOSCOW, November 15. /TASS/. Russia will achieve its goals in Ukraine by means of continuing the special military operation, as Kiev does not want to negotiate, Russian Presidential Spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Tuesday.
"The main thing is the position which has been repeatedly stated by President [Vladimir] Zelensky, indicating that Ukraine, both de facto and de jure, cannot and does not want to conduct negotiations," Peskov told the media on Tuesday.
"Accordingly, Russia’s goals will be achieved by means of continuing the special military operation," Peskov stressed.
The Kremlin spokesman also commented on French President Emmanuel Macron's request to Chinese President Xi Jinping to persuade Russian President Vladimir Putin to return to the negotiating table for talks on a settlement in Ukraine.
"It goes without saying," Peskov replied to a question whether Kiev should be persuaded to return to negotiations first.
"For now, we do not see a negotiating table," Peskov said.
He added that the Kremlin had seen Zelensky's statements about a ten-point plan for achieving peace, made at the G20 summit.
Earlier, the Ukrainian leader addressed participants at the G20 summit by video link. He said that the time had come to stop the fighting, but added that Kiev would not sign the Minsk-3 deal. The Minsk agreements, reached in 2015, were conceived as the basis for a settlement in Donbass. Kiev procrastinated and refused to implement them for years. Then at a certain point it declared the political part of this package as unacceptable. Also, it refused to conduct a direct dialogue with the Donbass republics.

Lavrov emphasizes Ukraine refusing to negotiate, not Russia
As for signals about negotiations to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky from the West, Moscow has recorded various reports citing anonymous sources, including rumors that "the US administration is telling Zelensky to be more cooperative"
BALI /Indonesia/, November 15. /TASS/. Russia is not refusing to negotiate with Ukraine, it is the Kiev regime who is doing so, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told reporters on Tuesday following his attendance at the G20 summit.
"We have repeatedly confirmed through our president that we do not refuse to negotiate. If anyone is refusing to negotiate, it is Ukraine. The longer it [the Kiev regime] continues to refuse, the harder it will be to reach an agreement," he clarified.
As for signals about negotiations to Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky from the West, Moscow has recorded various reports citing anonymous sources, including rumors that "the US administration is telling Zelensky to be more cooperative." "Then, it is immediately clarified that this is not really for the aim of him actually behaving constructively, but to overcome objections from that portion of the Western world that is starting to doubt the need for additional weapons supplies," the minister stressed.
Today has the first example of fallout, which brings us back to Italian on Italian violence, since the fifth century B. C. E.:
The alleged plot to destroy various Italian targets — including a police station — appears to be the first attempted terror attack in Western Europe linked to Ukraine’s official Nazi military formations.
Police in Italy arrested four suspected neo-Nazis with links to Ukraine’s notorious Azov Battalion who were accused of plotting to carry out “violent acts” against both civilians and police, according to local media.
Photos released by police show the Nazi paraphernalia seized in around 30 raids on members of the “Order of Hagal” throughout the country included photos of Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler, Italian dictator Benito Mussolini, and t-shirts bearing the logo of Ukraine’s official Nazi regiment, the Azov Battalion.
“According to the investigators, the objective identified by the members of the Order of Hagal was the Marigliano [police] barracks,” Italian outlet Today Chronicle wrote Tuesday.
According to the Italian publication, one of the suspects wanted by police “disappeared” before he could be apprehended – a 27-year-old Ukrainian national named Anton Radomosky, who the outlet reported “would have offered his ‘intermediation’ between the Order of Hagal and neo-Nazi groups such as the Azov Battalion,” which they note “is particularly active in the context of the War in Donbass.”
According to another Italian source, the “Ukrainian accomplice… wanted to cause an explosion in a shopping center.” Corriere Del Mezzogiorno indicated “the cell had contacts” with not only “Ukrainian ultranationalist formations such as the Azov Battalion,” but also the notorious Ukrainian “Right Sector” nazi militia.
Meanwhile, the Mighty Norsemen, on the defensive against themselves, might as well surrender, thanks to the "pressure" applied on Ankara during the two most recent disasters:
"This statement clearly shows that Sweden should not expect the US to remedy the situation with Sweden’s NATO membership bid. This is because there are those in Sweden who believe that there is no need to do anything because the US will turn up the pressure on Turkey to ensure Sweden’s admission into the bloc. This will not happen because Turkey now views the United States as an enemy,"
Finland and Sweden applied to join NATO on May 18 but Turkey immediately blocked their bids to get into the US-led bloc, demanding that the Nordic countries declare Kurdish organizations as terror groups, extradite individuals accused of terrorism or complicity in the 2016 failed coup attempt in the country and lift a ban on arms exports to Ankara.
There. Blocked out of a "North Atlantic Treaty" by an Asian country.
Not that Italy is likely to flinch for similar reasons, because, well, they can't. Remember, you had about 100 years of refugee status granting you free admission to the United States, and then you were designated "Morons" while we founded modern Eugenics and Nazism, fed it to the above-mentioned Sweden, and now we are in a type of racquetball court playing with a glob of napalm. Grazzi!

So let's just go through a simple analysis
"Real dialogue" can be had easily, like the one most people have at the UN when they discuss fake facts and discuss the details of a fake reality that exists only within a certain narrative. That's a very real dialogue, as long as you don't break the narrative's immersion, right? Everyone has to play along with the script and then it all fits nicely and makes sense
But if you do/say anything that breaks the immersion then we don't have a 'real dialogue' anymore. Then the other party in the dialogue says that 'communication is broken" or simply complain that there can be no dialogue because the other side refuses to talk. Completely ignoring that the actual reason behind 'broken communication' is that one side decided not to play pretend anymore
Reality is based on perception and understandings. Some of those may be incorrect or come from misleading narratives and pure lies. So anything 'real' is very much 'problematic' if inspected closely. To turn a lie into 'reality' or 'truth' you just need to fool someone into it, by whatever means you can find
So how about this, we could do one of two things here to fix the overall issue you have with my post:
1. Please reply to the other post and start a 'real dialogue' or conversation that you think i shut down. Would be interesting to read for sure
2. How about an honest dialogue/conversation instead of a 'real one'. Don't you find it interesting where that could lead instead of option #1?
So, what do you think? Which way we should go?
BREAKING: Now-collapsed FTX crypto slush fund laundered Ukraine donation money to Democrat candidates to help rig mid-terms
(Natural News) The FTX crypto slush fund run by now-disgraced Sam Bankman-Fried (and his MIT college buddies) laundered money for Ukraine into nearly $40 million worth of campaign donations for Democrats in the 2022 mid-term elections.
Over the last year, Joe Biden and the Democrats have pushed through well over $50 billion in funding for Ukraine, using US taxpayer money. Internationally, over $100 billion has been donated to Ukraine, according to Devex.com which has compiled worldwide donations and grants to the Ukrainian cause.
FTX simultaneously processed donations to Ukraine by using its crypto infrastructure. As CoinDesk.com reported in May of this year, “Ukraine Partners With FTX, Everstake to Launch New Crypto Donation Website.”
In other words, the corrupt Ukraine regime partnered with a corrupt crypto slush fund to take dollars from the corrupt US government and funnel them into the hands of corrupt Democrat candidates to win rigged mid-term elections.

When I suggested quite a solid list of reliable sources of accurate information, this was your reply:I feel I have to say that I'd bet quite a lot you never 'researched' anything. And your 'world view', on which your sense of self may be deeply dependent, is equally deeply flawed. I can state that with some certainty.Quote:

For the very best summary I've heard to date of everything concerned with the conflict, this presentation by Col. Doug Macgregor, posted twice in the last 24 hours and pretty much a 40 minute hesitation-free unscripted monologue, is a masterclass. I've not yet heard anything better.
Will you listen to this? Maybe, maybe not.

- CNN Banned From Ukraine After Showing N@zi Salute:
https://yt3.ggpht.com/ytc/AMLnZu_uIS...00ffffff-no-rj"I am a 71 year old canadian. My father, Steve Elniski, fought the nazis for 6 years in WWII as an RCAF pilot seconded to the RAF. I am horribly disgusted with the canadian cbc broadcaster for turning a blind eye to ukrainian nazis while "covering" the war. I sm particularly disgusted and outraged that the canadian deputy prime minister, chrystia freeland has done photo ops with nazis. She speaks ukrainian and knowingly supports the murderous nazis and is indignant when people like me call her out. She has zero chance of getting re-elected here in alberta canada".
