Shared by Simplicius at the end of his most recent article and the following quote from German philosopher and Russophile *Walter Schubart:
“Western European man views life as a slave whose neck he has stepped on... He does not look with devotion at the sky, but, full of lust for power, looks down at the earth with evil, hostile eyes. Russian people are obsessed not with the will to power, but with a feeling of reconciliation and love. He is filled not with anger and hatred, but with the deepest trust in the essence of the world. He sees in man not an enemy, but a brother.” An Englishman wants to see the world as a factory, a Frenchman as a salon, a German as a barracks, a Russian as a church. The Englishman wants loot, the Frenchman wants glory, the German wants power, the Russian wants sacrifice. The Englishman wants to profit from his neighbor, the Frenchman wants to impress his neighbor, the German wants to command his neighbor, but the Russian doesn’t want anything from him. He does not want to turn his neighbor into his means. This is the brotherhood of the Russian heart and the Russian idea. And this is the Gospel of the future. The Russian all-man is the bearer of a new solidarity. Promethean man is already doomed to death. The era of John's man is coming - a man of love and freedom. This is the future of the Russian people. The West is driven by unbelief, fear and selfishness; The Russian soul is driven by faith, peace and brotherhood. That is why the future belongs to Russia…”
*Schubart: In his 1938 book Europe and the Soul of the Orient , the German-born Latvian writer Walter Schubart questions the possibility of a spiritual renaissance of the West compromised by Promethean ideology. In his eyes, the heroic man, that is to say the man who submits the world to his will, is out of breath and must give way to the messianic man who alone can reconcile the East and the West.

Marjorie Taylor Greene blasts US Speaker Mike Johnson over $61 billion Ukraine aid package
Marjorie Taylor Greene wades in pretty heavily here following the aid package vote with nothing flattering at all to say about speaker Johnson, who is another wimp :muscle:
****
Comments:
“How can you vote for these people? They don’t serve our country,” she told reporters at press conference after the US House voted 311-112 to pass new Ukraine funding.
.
The Georgian parliament has advanced a controversial "foreign influence" bill through its first reading, as thousands joined a third day of anti-government protests.
The bill, first presented early in 2023 and withdrawn amid fierce public opposition, requires media and civil society groups to register as being under "foreign influence" if they get more than 20 percent of their funding from overseas.
Critics say the bill mirrors a repressive Russian law on "foreign agents" that has been used against independent news media and groups seen as being at odds with the Kremlin and will undermine Tbilisi's aspirations for closer European Union ties and, ultimately, membership.
Comment: Note Russia's FA bill was made in response, and mirrored, a US FA bill.
In a vote boycotted by the opposition in the 150-seat parliament, 83 politicians from the ruling Georgian Dream party backed the bill.
Some 20,000 people blocked traffic in front of the parliament building in the capital, Tbilisi, to show their opposition to the measure.
"No to the Russian law!" they shouted after listening to the Georgian national anthem and European Union's Ode to Joy.
Speaking at the rally, opposition member of parliament Aleksandre Ellisashvili condemned politicians who voted for the bill as "traitors" and said the rest of Georgia would show them that "people are power, and not the traitor government".
The Black Sea nation was once part of the Soviet Union but secured its independence in 1991 as the USSR collapsed.
Once seen as a democratic reformer, the current ruling party led by Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze has been accused of trying to steer Georgia towards closer ties with Russia.
The decision by the US House of Representatives to earmark $61 billion in long-delayed aid for Ukraine shows the country will not become “a second Afghanistan,” President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday.
The House on Saturday approved the latest massive package of military and economic assistance for Ukraine as it struggles to hold off Russian forces more than two years since Moscow invaded its Eastern European neighbor.
“This aid will strengthen Ukraine and send the Kremlin a powerful signal that it will not be the second Afghanistan,” Zelensky said in an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“The United States will stay with Ukraine, will protect Ukrainians, and… they’ll protect democracy in the world,” he added.
The Soviet Union invaded Afghanistan in 1979, igniting a Cold War-era insurgency that saw the United States fund and arm mujahideen fighters who drove Russian forces out a decade later.
Afghanistan then fell into civil war, and soon the hardline Taliban took power, ruling most of the country from 1996 until 2001.
That year their decision to allow the Al Qaeda jihadist group safe haven saw the United States invade in the wake of the September 11 attacks — sparking yet another insurgency.
Nearly 20 years later, the United States also finally withdrew from Afghanistan, leaving Afghan forces battered and exhausted as the Taliban marched back into Kabul to seize power once more.
Zelensky said some of his own forces are also “exhausted.”
“We need to replace them. But these new brigades, they have to have the equipment,” he told Meet the Press.
The bills passed Saturday are the product of months of acrimonious negotiations, pressure from US allies and repeated pleas for assistance from Zelensky.
The United States has been the chief military backer of Ukraine in its war against Russia, but Congress has not approved large-scale funding for its ally for nearly a year and a half, mainly because of cross-aisle bickering.
The delay has undermined Kyiv’s fight against Moscow, as money to replace items drawn from US stocks ran out.
The resulting gaps saw Ukrainian troops — outnumbered and outgunned by Moscow’s forces — run short of key items such as artillery munitions, leaving them vulnerable.
The bills must still be passed by the Senate and then signed by President Joe Biden, who has promised to do so immediately, with the Pentagon adding that it will move fast to get aid to Ukraine.
“We really need to get this to the final point,” Zelensky said.
“We want to, well, get things as fast as possible so that we get some tangible assistance for the soldiers on the frontline as soon as possible. Not in another six months.”
Black Man of CIA Intrigues alongside Biden jr in Ukrainian Company Accused of Financing Crocus' Terrorists
by Fabio Giuseppe Carlo Carisio
«I was impressed to learn that Burisma Group is the fastest-growing private gas producer in Central Europe. International projects where the Group is involved require a more thorough analysis and risk assessment, not only in terms of conventional risks – financial or political but also in terms of security. My role will be to advise the Group with respect to its security practices and protocols, including on the most effective protections and programs to guard against cyber-attacks».
With these words Joseph Cofer Black, former director of counter-terrorism in the Central Intelligence Agency, the American counter-intelligence of Langley (Virginia), responded to the Kyiev Post in February 2017 in an article curiously signed by Burisma itself, the company of which Hunter Biden belonged, son of then Vice President Joseph and now POTUS in the White House.
Burisma is the Ukrainian company accused in recent days by the Russian National Investigative Committee of having financed terrorists in various attacks in their country (and outside) such as in the Crocus City Hall massacre.
should all of this be true, well that country is the nest of all demons on Earth...

Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia
In the wake of speaker Mike Johnson’s switching course and approving the $61 billions aid package to Ukraine, the foremost question is what exactly compelled him to do this…
In the article below, Tucker Carlson explains that members of congress are terrified of the intel agencies framing them if they don’t toe the line.
____________________________________
US lawmakers scared of being framed for ‘kiddie porn’ – Tucker Carlson
Intelligence agencies have creative ways of forcing politicians to do their bidding, the conservative journalist claimed
Members of Congress consistently vote in favor of mass surveillance programs because they’re “terrified” that intelligence agencies will plant “kiddie porn” on their computers if they speak up, American journalist Tucker Carlson has claimed.
Carlson appeared on Joe Rogan’s podcast on Friday, hours before the US Senate voted to renew Section 702 of the 1978 Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Ostensibly created to allow intelligence agencies such as the FBI and CIA to surveil the communications of foreigners, Section 702 allows these agencies to access data ‘indirectly’ collected from millions of American citizens without a warrant.
According to Carlson, a number of lawmakers actually opposed this renewal, but did not admit this publicly.
“People don’t say that because they’re worried about being punished,” Carlson told Rogan. “They’re worried about someone putting kiddie porn on their computer. Members of Congress are terrified of the intel agencies. I’m not guessing at that. They’ve told me that, including people on the [intelligence] committee, including people who run the intel committee.”
“They’re afraid of the agencies,” he stated, adding: “That’s not compatible with democracy.”
“It’s playing out in front of everyone, and no one cares and no one does anything about it,” Carlson continued. “I think the reason is because they’re threatened. And if you look at the committee chairmen who allowed this s**t to happen year after year… I know them. And they have all the things to hide. I know that for a fact.”
Apart from the supposed threat of surreptitiously-planted child pornography, Carlson claimed that it’s “very common” for lawmakers to have “a drinking problem or a weird sex life,” which agencies could easily expose if these politicians refuse to do their bidding.
Carlson is not the first influential conservative to claim that elected representatives are being blackmailed. Back in December, Tennessee Representative Tim Burchett, a Republican, suggested that his colleagues opposed a motion to release the names of notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s clients because they would have been implicated in sex crimes.

Unnamed forces in Washington use “the old honey pot” to blackmail politicians and force them to “vote for crazy stuff,” he told conservative podcast host Benny Johnson at the time.
A year earlier, a nude video of Rep. Madison Cawthorn was leaked a month after he claimed to have been invited to drug-fueled orgies by older members of Congress. Washington, he said at the time, is rife with “sexual perversion.”

Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia
An interesting article on Zero Hedge (extract below)...
"Ukraine Gets Their Billions Despite CIA Director Reportedly Warning Zelenksy To Stop Stealing So Much Money
As Seymour Hersh recently reported, CIA Director Burns had to warn Zelensky to stop stealing so much money.
The issue of corruption was directly raised with Zelensky in a meeting last January in Kiev with CIA Director William Burns.
His message to the Ukrainian president, I was told by an intelligence official with direct knowledge of the meeting, was out of a 1950s mob movie.
The senior generals and government officials in Kiev were angry at what they saw as Zelensky’s greed, so Burns told the Ukrainian president, because “he was taking a larger share of the skim money than was going to the generals.”
Burns also presented Zelensky with a list of thirty-five generals and senior officials whose corruption was known to the CIA and others in the American government.
Zelensky responded to the American pressure ten days later by publicly dismissing ten of the most ostentatious officials on the list and doing little else.
“The ten he got rid of were brazenly bragging about the money they had—driving around Kiev in their new Mercedes,” the intelligence official told me.
Zelensky’s half-hearted response and the White House’s lack of concern was seen, the intelligence official added, as another sign of a lack of leadership that is leading to a “total breakdown” of trust between the White House and some elements of the intelligence community.
Hersh went on to note that one estimate by analysts from the Central Intelligence Agency put the embezzled funds at $400 million last year, at least; another expert compared the level of corruption in Kiev as approaching that of the Afghan war, “although there will be no professional audit reports emerging from the Ukraine.”
But, remember, the first rule of sending money to corrupt Ukraine is... you don't talk about how corrupt Ukraine is (or you get impeached)."
More confirmation of the doom and gloom having to be experienced by disenfranchised Ukrainian citizens based overseas who really don't want anything to do with the US/UK/Zionist proxy war; I do hope that the Ukrainian diaspora - the non-ZioNazis that is; in other words the vast majority of Ukrainian people - can return to somewhere that isn't the Mordorian squalid hellhole that that poor country has become. Maybe in time the filth that occupies the 'power' will be rid, permanently and they can return to somewhere that can be truly renewed, and desirable a place to be :flower:

I wonder if being forced into the military might be the grounds for asylum or obtaining citizenship of the country where you're living. It's not right though that you should be forced into that.
I know we're no longer in the EU, but you can renew your British passport in another country by applying to the British embassy there. I've had a look at Italian passports, you can renew those at an Italian consulate in the UK so it doesn't look like this is an EU directive.

"After the dissolution of the USSR, there was an illusion that liberalism had won the final victory, that heaven on earth should resemble America both politically and economically. It seemed that money was intended to become the main goal of life, for which we should sacrifice ethics, morality, and humanism.
However, China has proposed a different model. A balanced combination of communist ideals with a capitalist economy. In its case, a centralized social state coexists with the economic freedom of private enterprises.
Since 2008, we have seen that China is steadily growing against the backdrop of a stable decline in the West. That is, China has proven that elements of capitalism are necessary for the economy, but capitalism as a format of state governance is doomed."

The leaders of the two countries, whose militaries have more than a dozen Patriot systems, as well as other systems such as the S-300, were told their needs were "not as great as Ukraine's."
▪️This month, Kyiv demanded the provision of 7 additional Patriot air defense systems. Only Germany has announced the delivery of one system.

🇩🇪🇺🇦 German districts no longer want to accept Ukrainian refugees and offer them to return home. Some districts and municipalities have announced the restriction of the possibility of accepting new refugees from Ukraine because of the high level of migration.
This was stated by the President of the German Association of districts Reinhard Sager.
He pointed out that "the integration of all these people is no longer possible", and the problems are becoming more and more. Representatives of the districts of the FRG demand from Berlin and the EU to take measures to combat the growth of migration, as well as to stop the flow of refugees. According to Zager, Baden-Württemberg alone currently hosts twice as many people from Ukraine as the whole of France.
Zager suggested that Ukrainians would be better off staying in the west of their country or in Poland, which may be more willing to accept EU-backed refugees.
📌 Of course, no one is waiting for Ukrainians with open arms in Poland or other European countries. The fact that nobody in Europe needed Ukrainian refugees was clear from the beginning, but for Germany they became a humanitarian weapon, given their mass numbers and their desire to live on benefits. Thus, the beneficiaries of the "Ukraine project" managed to kill several birds with one stone: in this case, they managed to turn everyone against the Ukrainians and additionally burden the German economy.
