Jeffrey Sachs: The War in Ukraine Was Provoked—and Why That Matters to Achieve Peace
Syriana Analysis
Renowned American economist and Director of the Center for Sustainable Development at Columbia University Jeffrey Sachs wrote a brilliant article titled “The War in Ukraine Was Provoked—and Why That Matters to Achieve Peace”.
In this video, Kevork Almassian sheds light on this important opinion article because as Professor Sachs argued, by recognizing that the question of NATO enlargement is at the center of this war, we understand why U.S. weaponry will not end this war. And why only diplomatic efforts can achieve peace.
- Jimmy Dore Added To Ukraine Government’s Kill List! :facepalm:
The notorious Ukrainian “kill list” that identified the Zelensky regime’s opponents like Aaron Maté, Scott Ritter, Roger Waters and even Henry Kissinger has added a new name: Jimmy Dore. The list is ostensibly maintained by an independent group, but an investigation into funding reveals that the Ukrainian government is behind the effort, as well as U.S. and NATO cutouts. Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger speak with The Grayzone reporter Max Blumenthal about the individuals named on the list who have been assassinated and what being added means for Jimmy.
- NATO’s Latest Stunt To Keep Ukraine War Going :facepalm:
Former U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson recently traveled to Texas in an effort to maintain support among prominent elected Republicans for the Ukraine War. Johnson notably traveled to Kiev during the early days of the war to tell Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky that the NATO powers would not support a peace deal with Russia.
Jimmy and Americans’ Comedian Kurt Metzger talk to The Grayzone’s Max Blumenthal about the reasoning behind the war machine and defense manufacturers sending the wildly unpopular Johnson to do their bidding in Texas.

A group of ukies came and forced her to take it off. Accompanying it by insults, threats. They yell:

"Bakhmut will never be Russia!"

John McCain was an American politician and United States Navy officer who served as a United States senator from Arizona from 1987 until his death in 2018. To the best of my knowledge, he recorded this interview in or around 2015. Whether you argree with his words or not it is interesting to look back almost 10 years later. Just for perspective Russia invaded and occupied parts of Ukraine in Feb 2022 which was a major escalation of the Russo-Ukrainian War, which had begun in 2014. The invasion (most reliable sources say) has resulted in anwhere between 200,000 to 400,000 deaths on both sides, and instigated Europe's largest refugee crisis since World War II.

A sniper of the special forces "Akhmat" with the call sign "Hades" (pictured):
"A Polish sniper specifically shot our infantry soldiers in the neck and armpits so that the guys would die a painful death. I've been tracking him for a long time. On the day of reckoning, the Pole tried to use the tactics of the cuckoo — the tactics of the Finnish snipers, that is, he sat on a tree from where he had a better view, hoping to track me down. The crunch of a branch gave him away. After my shot, he fell from a tree with a hole in his neck."

An important possible development here concerning Mike Jones and Maria Lelyanova apparently reported 'missing' in the Donbass.
The concern here is that they may probably have been picked up by the SBU. John Mark Dougan is clearly very tired here; this situation clearly seems to be taking its toll.

"All of This Could End In..": Wagner Chief Threatens Russia Amid Ukraine War | Vantage on Firstpost
Following his controversial victory in Bakhmut, Ukraine, Russian mercenary leader Yevgeniy Prigozhin has raised an alarm. In a startling revelation, he warns that Russia's escalating conflict in Ukraine could trigger a revolution in the country, unless the nation's privileged class steps up. Prigozhin was speaking after two Russian rebel militias, the Russian Volunteer Corps and the Freedom of Russia Legion, had made a dramatic incursion into the Belgorod region along Ukraine’s northern border. What could this mean for Russia’s future? Catch this in-depth analysis from Vantage on Firstpost.
Russia is threatening "extremely harsh" consequences after pro-Ukraine militia attacked a Russian border town. Who are the Russians fighting the Russian state? Why are they opposed to the Kremlin? Wagner Group chief Yevgeny Prigozhin, meanwhile, has claimed that Russia could face another revolution if its leadership does not improve its handling of the war. Prigozhin was speaking after two Russian rebel militias, the Russian Volunteer Corps and the Freedom of Russia Legion, had made a dramatic incursion into the Belgorod region along Ukraine’s northern border.

Two interesting moments with Scott Ritter on his current - or at least recent - speaking and book tour in Russia.
Here he is on Crimea24 TV:
Here at a journalist and student's meeting being questioned by Alina Lipp:
Former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter: "Nazi ideology is alive today both in Ukraine and in the US!" "Russia stands on the right side of history!"
At a meeting with students and journalists, German Alina Lipp asked Scott Ritter, to comment on the fact that Germany supports Nazis in Ukraine who terrorize and kill the Russian-speaking population.
In response, Ritter very emotionally stated that he hates Nazi Germany and cannot understand that German tanks are going to Russia again 💪
In his opinion America, Germany and Canada have forgotten their history, where Nazi ideology is still alive today. Even not far from where Scott Ritter lives in the United States, a monument to Bandera has been erected.
Therefore, Russia, according to him, stands on the right side of history in the current conflict.
