FSB operatives seized four bottles of "Chlorpicrin",a machine gun,ammunition for small arms and dozens of hand grenades and mines.

"Chloropicrin" is a poisonous,thick liquid with an extremely penetrating smell. If people come into contact with it,it can cause burns on the skin,irritate the eyes or cause breathing problems. It is especially dangerous that the vapors of this liquid,if inhaled,attack blood vessels in the lungs.

France’s Mirage-2000s Bound to Be Destroyed on Ground or in Ukraine’s Skies



Ukraine is set to receive the first batch of upgraded Mirage-2000 fighter jets from France in the first quarter of 2025, according to French Defense Minister Sébastien Lecornu. The defense chief also noted that training for operating and maintaining these jets is already in progress.

"The Mirage-2000 does not possess any supernatural capabilities," Dmitry Kornev, a military expert and founder of the Military Russia portal, told Sputnik. "Accordingly, these jets can be countered using the same resources that the Russian Aerospace Forces currently possess."

The pundit cast doubt on the much-touted new arms package:

It remains unclear as to how many Mirage fighter jets Ukraine will receive. France is unlikely to supply the Kiev regime with more than 10 to 12 jets, according to Kornev.

"The fourth generation jet is rather capricious; the Mirage will require careful handling and time to learn how to operate it," he pointed out.

Operating and maintenance costs for Ukraine will skyrocket, given that it will have to operate different NATO warplanes, including F-16s and Mirage-2000s, noted the expert.

The delivery of the Mirage 2000 aircraft will not alter the balance of power on the front lines. Earlier, in June, French President Emmanuel Macron pledged to supply the Kiev regime with Mirage 2000-5 combat jets and to train 4,500 Ukrainian military personnel.

The arrival of these Mirage-2000s would simply increase the number of targets for Russia’s air defenses and Aerospace Forces. Kornev said. The military expert also hinted that the French wonder-jets would be eliminated upon delivery to Ukraine.

French General Prepares for War With Russia as Proxy Armies Show Signs of Exhaustion

Paris has played a highly active role in NATO’s proxy war against Russia in Ukraine, delivering billions of euros-worth of war materiel and repeatedly threatening to deploy ground troops.

France will need to prove its ability to wage war with Russia in large-scale exercises planned for next year, a senior commander has said.

“We used to play war. Now there’s a designated enemy, and we train with people with whom we’d actually go to war,” French Land Forces Commander General Bertrand Toujouse told European media, commenting on France’s plans to deploy a brigade’s worth of troops to Romania for the Dacian Spring 2025 drills next May.

blah,blah,blah...

As to the uppity nature of France, it couldn't be more Ukrainian:

The Rothschilds appear to have a motif in supporting Macron – a predictable president playing in hand of the rich: the Rothschild banking structure was nationalized twice in the modern French history – by the Vichy regime in 1940 and by the Socialist coalition of President François Mitterrand in 1981.

In 1984 Eric de Rothschild received a permission to found a new bank but was banned from using the family name. The restriction was lifted under PM Jacques Chirac in 1986 and the financial institution was renamed Rothschild et Associes Banque and later Rothschild et Cie. Banque.

During Macron's presidency, the Rothschilds restructured their financial business with their major company Rothschilds & Co. being taken private in 2023 in a family-led €3.7 billion deal. In March 2023, Reuters placed emphasis on the Rothschilds "recent expansion into private banking and asset management" and becoming "very active and dynamic."

In their September macro insights, the Rothschild & Co. wrote that the French economy needs a boost, adding that "the lingering question over how to reconcile the need for fiscal discipline with incessant demands for public spending" must be resolved by the Macron government.

When assuming office, Macron carried out a string of measures for the rich and companies. He reduced the official corporate tax rate to 25% from 33%, slashed taxes for manufacturers, introduced a flat tax of 30% on investment income; and replaced a wealth tax on very rich with a tax on real estate assets valued at more than 1.3 million euros.

However, the tax increase measure, which could bring around €10 billion annually, according to French think tank Terra Nova, is a temporary measure one. The French government needs to find €110 billion over next several years and most of the sum would be in form of slashing government spending, according to NYT.

In September 2018 FT called Macron David de Rothschild's "protégé" and cited the banker as hailing the French president as "decisive", "extremely intelligent", "courageous", and "doing what he said he would do." When asked by FT about Macron's "unlikely ascent to the presidency", de Rothschild responded: "Planets have aligned".

And from another article, the proper term is influence:

To suggest that the Rothschild family is so powerful that they control the planet’s entire economic and political life and world events would be a stretch, not only due to the never-ending, largely silent struggle for resources and power with competitors, but the ever-shifting geopolitical balance of the modern world, which powerful banking elites might try to influence, but never control outright. Nonetheless, overlooking these shadow forces’ actions, or worse, dismissing them as mere “conspiracy theories,” risks an overly simplistic view on the events and processes taking place in the modern world.

It won't work because it is not even human, according to most standards.

Oh, and your partnership with Lebanon is not looking too strong. You were going to "help" or "do something" and again we see nothingness.

[Abondance]

Well, we know why our new prime minister (yes, after a whole summer spent in anticipation, King Macron has finally appointed the new successor) has therefore, in his first measures, decided to raise taxes. Because we are in a dire economic situation. But there is enough to fund and train the 155th Ukrainian brigade and send millions very far east, which will return partly in the south of of France in the form of villas and luxury cars...

Ukraine is receiving chemical weapons from the West – Moscow
Russia possesses “irrefutable evidence” of the supply of toxic chemicals to Kiev, the country’s mission to the UK has said

The collective West has been facilitating the supply of banned toxic chemicals to Kiev to be used as chemical weaponry on the frontlines, the Russian Embassy in the UK has said.

The mission made the remarks on Tuesday, responding to a new round of sanctions imposed by London. The restrictions target Russia’s Radiological Chemical and Biological Defense Forces (RChBZ) and its head, Lieutenant General Igor Kirillov, with the British government accusing Moscow of “flagrant violation of the Chemical Weapons Convention (CWC).”

The mission strongly rejected the accusations, pointing out that Moscow destroyed its chemical arsenal years ago, with the process overseen by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW).

“Russia strictly adheres to the norms of international law, including the provisions of the Geneva Conventions and the Chemical Weapons Convention. There are no chemical weapons in the arsenals of our Armed Forces, which has been confirmed by international inspections,” the mission said.

In reality, London’s accusations were intended to divert attention from the numerous instances of use of chemical weapons by Kiev’s forces during the conflict against Moscow, the embassy suggested.
“By groundlessly accusing Russia, they are keeping silent confirmed facts of the use of prohibited toxic substances and chemical agents by the Kiev regime forces,” it stated, accusing the collective West of facilitating the supply of such toxins to Ukrainian troops.

There is irrefutable evidence that toxic chemicals, among other things, are supplied to Ukraine with the assistance of the West.

The new British restrictions and the exchange of accusations come a day after General Kirillov accused Kiev of making extensive preparations for “false flag attacks aimed at accusing Russia of using toxic substances during the special military operation.” The ‘proof’ resulting from the false flag operations would then be provided to OPCW officials.

Kirillov said Moscow had registered some 400 cases in which Ukraine had used riot-control chemical agents. While used in policing, such agents qualify as chemical weapons in warfare and, therefore, are prohibited.

The general also accused Ukraine of deploying chemical weapons disguised as smoke bombs during its ongoing incursion into Russia’s Kursk Region. The munitions were used in the Russian town of Sudzha in August, with more than 20 people exposed to the toxins during the attack.

From having seen it, I would sell my soul for a tent and a moped anywhere near the Riviera. I can understand that part. The part about the French public buying it through a money laundering scheme for someone else's benefit is where I don't understand how that is supposed to represent effective or acceptable government.

I’m not sure that anyone finds this government effective, except those who benefit from it. But still too much certainly finds it within the limits of acceptable, as long as they get (still) to eat cake from time to time. Most French people only wake up when their portfolio is deeply affected and that’s sad.

There is a real administrative grinding machine that is on the way and starts to pressure people for anything and everything.
The least thing you want to do is or become regulated. In 2025, there are some cities where I could not enter with my car because it does not meet the environmental criteria set. You couldn’t pitch a tent anywhere on the Riviera and mopeds would probably be banned soon.
The Frogs are cooked on a slow fire... But the future is always full of surprises so maybe tomorrow will be another day...

Emmanuel Todd: Nato will disintegrate if Ukraine loses | Oct. 9, 2024

Source: unherd.com




Nato will “disintegrate” if Ukraine loses its war with Russia, according to the French historian and public intellectual Emmanuel Todd. Speaking to Italian newspaper Corriere di Bologna this week, Todd claimed that “if Russia is defeated in Ukraine, European submission to the Americans will last for a century”, but that if the US-backed Ukrainian effort fails, “Nato will disintegrate and Europe will be left free.”

The comments were made during a tour to promote the Italian edition of Todd’s book The Defeat of the West, in which the author attributes Western decline to the increased secularisation of Anglosphere society and argues that European powers are becoming increasingly dependent on the United States. As he sees it, the Ukraine war has only highlighted this wider malaise. In the interview with Corriere di Bologna, he claimed that “the Ukrainian army is in retreat, and it is a fact that it has difficulty recruiting soldiers”, adding that “Western economic sanctions have done more damage to the European economy than to the Russian one.”

Having stated at the beginning of last year that a third world war has already begun, Todd told the Italian newspaper that the outcome of the Ukraine war “will decide the fate of Europe”. He argued that Vladimir Putin “will have neither the means nor the desire to expand once the borders of pre-communist Russia are reconstituted”, and that the West “fantasises about the desire for Russian expansion in Europe”, when really this “is simply ridiculous for a serious historian”. He added: “The psychological shock that awaits Europeans will be to understand that Nato does not exist to protect us but to control us.”

Todd also claimed in the interview that America’s high command encouraged the escalation of the Ukraine war, with a view to the further “separation of Russia from Germany”. According to the French historian, “forcing the Russians to enter the war to prevent the de facto integration of Ukraine into Nato was, initially, a great diplomatic success for Washington.” But he believes that Germany and Russia will eventually repair their relations and “American control over Europe will be pulverised.”

More than two decades ago, Todd wrote After the Empire: The Breakdown of the American Order, in which he argued that US economic, diplomatic and military hegemony was already on the downturn. In The Defeat of the West, published in French at the beginning of this year, the historian has suggested that “as its power diminishes worldwide, the American system ultimately ends up burdening its protectorates more and more, as they remain the last bases of its power.” Referring to the Ukraine war, he said in the new interview that “we Westerners provoked this war and lost it, and with this defeat we also lost our grip on the world.”

Asked by Corriere di Bologna whether he’d rather live in Russia than Western Europe, Todd responded: “The liberal oligarchy is not a practical problem for me […] Basically I am just a dissident member of the intellectual oligarchy.” While he said he would remain in France “as long as the regime is not fascist or racist”, he claimed he would not move to the US as the country is “descending into something worse than the liberal oligarchy”. That something worse, Todd argued, is “nihilism”.

Central Asia in a boom over Western Sanctions on Russia 09 Oct. 2024



The ever-expanding list of Western sanctions on Russia has an unexpected and less-than-desirable effect. Central Asian countries are experiencing unheard-of growth due to Russian businesses and investors moving to the region.

A brief look at Tajikistan's 7.5% GDP growth, Uzbekistan's predicted 6.5%, Kazakhstan at 5%, followed by Kyrgyzstan with 4.6%, and the brilliant economic warfare waged by the West is a losing proposition. North Americans and Europeans are the only people being hurt by the proxy war in Ukraine and its economic facets.

Washington's geniuses say these Central Asian countries are helping Russia circumvent sanctions imposed by the West over the Ukraine crisis. Given that the E.U. is buying gas and oil from Russia via Indian refineries like there's no tomorrow, it seems like a no-brainer that the former Soviet republics would want to benefit from Western stupidity. Despite Washington and its allies pulling out all the stops against Russia, many countries worldwide are benefitting from and helping the Russian economy. Even with military spending projected to rise by 70%, the Russian deficit should be less than 2%. And there will be no borrowing to compensate.

Another conduit for expanded trade and cooperation is the Eurasian Economic Union with Russia, Belarus, and Armenia. This element facilitates economic integration through common markets, harmonizing regulation, and empowering free trade zones. These Asian partners are taking full advantage by helping Russia export commodities and products and importing from third parties to export into Russia. Consumption is up on both ends, which is good for Russia and her trading partners.

Russian companies have primarily chosen Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan due to their geographic proximity and shared cultural values. However, according to Silk Road Briefing, Turkmenistan is experiencing a similar economic boom, with a GDP growth topping 6.2% this year. In the capital Ashgabat, Russian infrastructure and technological investment are fueling making that city smart.

There's also an insult to go along with the injury Russia's economic shift has caused. Companies like Burger King, with over 800 stores in Russia, are still open despite promises to close. The other day, I received a photograph of Coca-Cola cans being shipped to the Russian market by none other than the Taliban. And exports from the U.S. and European countries to these Central Asian importers are booming. In Sweden, for instance, in 2023, the volume of exports to Kazakhstan increased by 140% compared to the previous year. These kinds of figures are mirrored across a dozen Western countries.

Ukraine supports terrorists in Africa in order to hurt Russia – Burkinabe PM

During an interview with RT, Apollinaire Kyelem de Tambela warned Kiev to focus on addressing its own problems

Ukraine’s motive for supporting terrorists in the Sahel region is to undermine Russia, which cooperates militarily with countries there, Burkina Faso’s Prime Minister Apollinaire Kyelem de Tambela has told RT.

The official, who is in Moscow for the Economic Days of Burkina Faso forum, made the comments on Wednesday during an interview, in which he discussed counterterrorism in Mali, his country’s neighbor to the north.

“Why did the Ukrainians start supporting terrorists in our region? It’s to hurt Russia, because they know that the Russians have military cooperation in terms of security with the three countries. And so, by wanting to take control of our states, Ukraine wants to weaken Russia,” he explained.

He addressed the greater impact of Kiev’s activity. “By trying to weaken Russia, there will be an impact on our enemies, which are the terrorists, so we can’t accept that... Those who attack Mali also attack Burkina Faso,” Tambela said.

“Ukraine has to solve its own problems in its own country,” he added.
In August, Burkina Faso’s military government joined Mali and Niger in demanding UN Security Council action against Ukraine for allegedly providing rebels with intelligence for an ambush that killed dozens of Malian soldiers and Wagner Group military personnel. The West African states interpreted Ukrainian officials’ remarks in response to the late July attack as an admission of Kiev’s involvement in the terror act in a region that has been battling militant violence for more than a decade.

Bamako and Niamey have severed diplomatic ties with Kiev in protest, despite the Ukrainian government denying the allegations following the backlash.

Moscow also condemned Kiev for opening a “second front” in the conflict between them in Africa by sponsoring terrorist groups in countries that Russia considers allies. Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger, the founding members of the Alliance of Sahel States (AES), have struck defense agreements with Moscow, which they hail as a preferred partner, following the expulsion of foreign troops, including French soldiers.

On Wednesday, Burkinabe Prime Minister Tambela described Russia as a partner that “respects” the AES states, as opposed to Western countries, particularly France, which “never really accepted independence” for the former colonies.

“We want to show that we are taking our destiny in our own hands. Our destiny is no longer subject to the whims of foreign power. We want to show this is possible in Africa,” he declared.

Terror lovers: Here’s how Ukraine is gaslighting the Global South

Kiev has managed to offend a whole lot of countries by openly supporting terrorists in a weird act of anti-diplomacy

The government of Mali has officially severed diplomatic ties with Ukraine. Ukraine is a country in eastern Europe; Mali is located in the Sahel region of Africa. Their political and commercial relationships are, to put it mildly, not intense, neither in a positive nor – until now – a negative sense. Kiev does not even maintain an embassy in Bamako, Mali’s capital, despite having them in a number of other African states; Mali has no diplomatic mission in Ukraine either. At first sight, it is hard to understand how two countries that have so little to do with each other could even have managed to get into such a clash.

But leave it to Kiev to shoot itself in the foot. The strange falling-out is entirely due to Ukraine. Its leadership’s aggressive, arrogant, and shortsighted actions have left Bamako hardly any other option but to, in effect, tell Kiev to get lost. While this may appear to be a comparatively localized issue, that impression is misleading. In reality, Ukraine’s crude treatment of the African nation has wider significance because it is emblematic of its inability to persuade the Global South or even address it in a respectful manner.

Russia rubbishes Trump’s nuclear arms claim 10 Oct, 2024

No deal with China was “close” under the ex-US president and no talks are likely if he’s elected again, a senior diplomat has said

Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov has denied a claim that Moscow, Beijing and Washington were at one point close to reaching a denuclearization agreement, a claim made earlier this week by former US President Donald Trump.

“No, that is not true. It is well-known that attempts by the Trump administration to put a Chinese delegation at the negotiations table with us [Russia and the US] did not end in a success,” the official said on Thursday.

Any hypothetical nuclear reduction talks will have to involve “nuclear allies of the US, meaning the UK and the French Republic, which, naturally, showed no desire to join the negotiations too,” Ryabkov added.

Trump, who is running for a second term in office, has regularly raised –on his campaign trail– the existential threat posed by nuclear weapons. In an interview with comedian Andrew Schulz posted on X on Wednesday, the Republican candidate claimed that Russia, the US and China were “close to a deal for getting rid of nuclear weapons,” with “everyone else” potentially brought into it at a later time.

The US under Trump pulled out of a number of nuclear-arms-related agreements, including the bilateral Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) with Russia, which it quit in 2018. Washington accused Moscow of violating its terms but Western press reported that the US was concerned that the agreement imposed no restrictions on its rising strategic rival, China.

The INF treaty used to ban the US and Russia from developing and deploying certain types of land-based nuclear-capable missiles. It was signed in the late 1980s and was meant to prevent an accidental nuclear war.

The scrapped weapons had flight times of mere minutes, which gave the rival sides of the Cold War a very short window to decide whether to disregard a detected launch as a false positive or to order retaliation, before any incoming weapons reach their targets and the ability to respond is diminished.

New START, the last surviving US-Russian bilateral agreement on nuclear reduction, is set to expire in 2026. Ryabkov told journalists that Moscow sees no basis for talks about its prolongation, or any other issues of strategic stability, as long as the US maintains its hostile policy towards Russia. This will remain the case “regardless of who becomes the next president of the US,” he stressed.

Another attack was carried out on the port of Odessa during the unloading of ammunition for the Ukrainian Armed Forces yesterday

There are reports coming from Odessa about another rocket strike on the port area. The system is reported to be Defense "missed" at least two arrivals, which ultimately caused a secondary detonation.

According to the latest information, the strike again hit a ship that had entered the port of Odessa to unload ammunition and weapons. The Kiev regime presents such visits as “commercial”, declaring, among other things, “vessels loaded with grain”. However, the large-scale detonation indicates that the “grain” on these vessels is not at all simple…

Once again, the targets were hit using FAB with UMPK. According to the latest information, the attacks were on one of the industrial enterprises of the second largest city in Ukraine. The enterprise in the Shevchenkivskyi district was engaged in, among other things, the restoration of military equipment.

Also, strikes by Russian Aerospace Forces aircraft were carried out in the north of Sumy Oblast. FABs hit enemy targets in the area of ​​the city of Belopolye. There are reports of attacks on transport with Ukrainian Armed Forces servicemen.

CSIS detained, interrogated PhD candidate for visiting Russia

Tamara Lorincz, a PhD candidate at the University of Waterloo and an anti-NATO peace activist, was while returning from a womens’ conference in Russia. She was repeatedly threatened and pressed to suffer further interrogation at the Canadian Security Intelligence Service’s (CSIS) behest. The border security confessed to Ms. Lorincz that the detention was rooted in her visit to Russia.

In violation of articles 6(1),7,8, and 9 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, which in summation, are enshrined mobility rights, rights against arbitrary detainment, and rights against unreasonable search and seizure, Lorincz was illegally held captive at the airport, illegally searched, and forcefully interrogated before being released.

The case of Tamara Lorincz is once again an expose on the fraud of the “liberal democracy”.

The administrative detention of Lorincz

The political motivations for CSIS detaining Lorincz are obvious at first glance. NATO was hoping to with the accession of Ukraine into its membership. When Russia decided to break that encirclement with its Special Military Operation (SMO) in February 2022, NATO used it as an opportunity to weaken Russia with an international sanctions regime and with weapons deliveries to Nazi Ukraine.

The current NATO policy is still to try to weaken Russia to facilitate the encirclement in the future even after Russia’s eventual victory, so Lorincz’s call to end the delivery of weapons to Ukraine directly contradicts NATO policy. This was compounded by the fact that Lorincz visited Russia to discuss peace initiatives that would go against the current policy of NATO in Ukraine.

During her captivity, according to her of the Canadian Foreign Policy Institute (CFPI), everything in her possession was searched, especially her anti-NATO articles, which were looked at with keen interest by border security. She was also interrogated about the womens’ peace conference she attended in Russia.

The CSIS operative then asked to interview her after she had been searched. The CSIS operative then revealed the extent of the government surveillance against her, noting his primary task of focusing on “people on the left” such as Lorincz. The interview concluded with a request from the CSIS operative for another interview. Lorincz replied that she would only attend a second interview on the condition that she's able to speak with the CSIS operative’s manager in Ottawa about CSIS’ conduct.

The violation of her Charter Rights

So long as Lorincz was arbitrarily detained at a Canadian border crossing or a Canadian airport, and so long as she was forcefully interrogated, and made to answer CSIS questions before her release, as well as illegally searched, the actions against her committed by the government were illegal and unconstitutional. The following rights, in this case, as outlined in the , were violated:

The CSIS operative, notably, did not provide his full name or make his badge number and identification available to Lorincz to photograph and document, in anticipating the possibility of Ms. Lorincz enforcing her rights under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms using the following provision:

CSIS is unlikely to respond to Ms. Lorincz’s initial demands or deal effectively with a complaint, as seen in the Ken Stone incident. After writing an op-ed in the Hamilton Spectator that criticised the Harper government’s hostility towards Iran, another “enemy” of NATO, by CSIS operatives “Joanna” and “Veronica”. He then suffered from misconduct at his home that could have led to his personal information being leaked. “Joanna”, one of the operatives, lost notes containing Ken Stone’s personal information. A stern “report” was given by Canada’s “toothless” Security Intelligence Review Committee (SIRC).

It’s unlikely that Lorincz would be able to enforce her rights under the Canadian legal system in any case. After all, the government ordinary Russian Canadians for the ‘crime’ of supporting or not vigorously opposing Russia’s SMO which began in 2022. Meanwhile, The judiciary is laden with who have in clear bias at provincial courts. They have also essentially , as admitted by the government itself.

The risks of engagement with the enemies of NATO

Tamara Lorincz, despite being a pacifist, was made an example of by the state due primarily to her brief engagement with Russia. The message was clear. Canada, as a member of NATO, seeks victory against Russia, and will not try to compromise with an enemy that they’re seeking to destroy and plunder with their pro-colonial “allies and partners”.

The modern day risks of engagement with NATO’s enemies or of being hostile to NATO are clear in Canada.
