    Exclamation Re: WW3? Ukraine/US vs. Donbass/Russia

    • Myths BUSTED! Brave German 🇩🇪 Journalist EXPOSES Ukraine/NATO War Lies:

    Dr. Gabrielle Krone-Schmalz, a German 🇩🇪 intellectual and former journalist, recently gave a highly informative talk at the "37. Pleisweiler Gespräch". Dr. Krone-Schmalz used to work as a Moscow-correspondent for Germany’s largest public broadcaster, ARD, and was also a Professor for Media Science and has emerged as one of the fiercest critics of Germany’s foolish policies vis-a-vis Russia. She is one of the people who can and does publicly lecture on the true origins of the ongoing war-fare in Europe, and she is proof that, yes, some Europeans really do know what is going on and how reckless the current political and media elite are.

    I’m able to show you this in English translations thanks to the Open Access Publication of the original video, curtesy of “Nachdenkseiten” Germany’s most important independent media portal. Please consider supporting them.

    • Original Video in German 🇩🇪 here
    October 28, 2024 at 10:17 An article by: Tobias Riegel

    Harshness against those who think differently: If the arguments are not sufficient, then linguistic heavyweights are used without backing them up with content. The NachDenkSeiten are also to be defamed in a current and very questionable article in the FAS . A commentary by Tobias Riegel .

    Because a recently awarded library had taken the liberty of inviting Russia expert Gabriele Krone-Schmalz, the institution came under the indignant gaze of author Diba Shokri in the last Sunday edition of the FAZ . In a FAS article from the weekend , she asks wringingly: "How can that be?" What follows is a linguistically harsh and content-wise dubious tirade against the important author Krone-Schmalz, whose "crime" is to question NATO's predictably dangerous Russia policy.


    Krone-Schmalz is experiencing a "disinformation cascade". She is a "speaker known for her notorious false statements" and a "controversial lecturer". Krone-Schmalz is spreading "Putin propaganda". The renowned former Moscow correspondent for ARD is falsely announced as a "Russia expert" - the fact that her statements have been "under criticism" for many years, however, is not mentioned in the event announcement. Key statements by Krone-Schmalz have been refuted many times by "contemporary historians". "Anti-American resentment" is successfully served. In addition to such own assessments, the article uncritically quotes other voices, according to which Krone-Schmalz's content is "conspiracy positions and disinformation". In doing so, "criminal Putin positions are normalized". The fact that it is possible for Krone-Schmalz to express her opinion in this library is an example of "lack of democratic vigilance". And so forth.
    • Defamation of the NachDenkSeiten
    The article also attempts to defame the NachDenkSeiten in the usual cheap way and, as usual, without adequate substantive support. It is not entirely clear whether the assessment comes from the author of the article or from one of the interviewees - in any case, in addition to the old chestnut of the "conspiracy theories" allegedly spread by the NachDenkSeiten , the argument against us is that we are "obscure". Incidentally, the FAZ had come to completely different conclusions about the NachDenkSeiten under Frank Schirrmacher (it was a long time ago...), for example in this article :
    " Angela Merkel has not yet been able to address the moral consequences of the crisis in the Eurozone. That is bad enough. It is unthinkable that a process of self-understanding would not have started in Erhard's time. The party evidently lacks the personnel for this. Because it certainly does not lack the power to do so. The political positioning of the conservatives has not yet progressed beyond the word "monster" - and this was read earlier and better in the "Nachdenkseiten" of the indispensable Albrecht Müller, once a mastermind of Willy Brandt. "
    Attacks without content:

    This paragraph is an example of the trick used in the article to attack Krone-Schmalz's theses without providing any substantive justification:
    " Krone-Schmalz claims: 'NATO has created its own Russia problem', namely, according to her thesis, through the EU's eastward expansion, through NATO's eastward expansion and through the NATO accession prospect for Ukraine. A well-known justification narrative of the Putin regime, refuted many times by contemporary historians. But no one contradicts her here ."
    It is obvious that the "Russia problem" - the confrontation between the country on the one hand and the rest of Europe/USA on the other - has been massively and predictably exacerbated by the EU's eastward expansion, by NATO's eastward expansion and by the prospect of Ukraine joining NATO (detailed information on this can be found in this article, among other places ). The FAS author complains that no one at the event contradicted this clear finding - but it is she herself who cannot substantiate her contradiction. The reference to "contemporary historians" who have already "many times" refuted the "justification narrative of the Putin regime" remains an inadequate and empty phrase. The same applies to the doubts spread here, which are also not substantiated:
    " Allegedly, negotiations on a ceasefire in spring 2022 failed not because of Russia, but because 'an end to the war was not in the interest of the Western community at that time .'"
    In my opinion, it is difficult to refute the fact that the negotiations in spring 2022 failed "not because of Russia" based on the information available (for more information, see here and here ). The "allegedly" therefore remains a mere assertion unless it is backed up with content.
    At least the brave attempts by library officials to respond are also reflected in the article. Ultimately, one must also listen to “how the other side ticks” and it is “to a certain extent bearable that we as a library live from discussions”.
    • " Lack of democratic vigilance"
    It is a well-known trick to let the choice of interviewee influence the topic in question. Jens-Christian Wagner, former director of the Mittelbau-Dora concentration camp memorial, now director of the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Memorial Foundation, professor of history in media and public relations in Jena and member of the jury for the library award, is questioned in detail about Krone-Schmalz. In my opinion, this is also done to somehow and indirectly link the topic and Krone-Schmalz with the problem of right-wing extremism.

    Additionally problematic are some of Wagner's unquestioned statements, which indirectly advocate censorship of opinions that he does not like. "In principle, one must be open, even to controversial opinions," says Wagner patronizingly. But: "Offering Krone-Schmalz a forum with their Putin propaganda - that is not acceptable." Wagner continues:
    " If you invite them, and I find that difficult too, the least you could do would be to bring a strong counterweight to the stage. Conspiracy theories and disinformation must be exposed using well-sourced and science-based evidence. "
    Otherwise, "criminal Putin positions would be normalized," said Wagner. The Krone-Schmalz case is an example of "lack of democratic vigilance."
    I confess: I find this kind of “democratic vigilance” simply uncanny.

    🇷🇺💀🎼 The remains of the Wagner PMC fighters killed in Mali this summer have been delivered to Russia. Among them are the remains of the Grey Zone channel administrator Nikita Fedyanin.

    Now they will be able to be buried with dignity in their native land, for whose interests they fought for many years in various theaters of military operations.

    The fact that the dead were returned, despite all the objective difficulties, is the right and worthy step. Russia / Wagner do not abandon their own.

    Ukraine-trained snipers’ preparing false-flag in Georgia – TASS
    Reports have raised fears of a Kiev-style ‘color revolution’ in Tbilisi


    Snipers trained in Ukraine have arrived in Tbilisi, possibly to create a false-flag incident that would justify a coup by the opposition protesting the recent election results, a security source has told the TASS news agency.

    Preliminary results of Georgia's parliamentary elections held on Saturday showed the ruling Georgian Dream winning over 54% of the vote. Four pro-Western opposition parties have refused to accept the results, claiming the election was somehow “stolen.”

    “According to informed official sources, the Westerners, in their attempts to destabilize the internal political situation in Georgia after the October 26 elections and provoke another ‘color revolution’, will stop at nothing,” TASS reported. “Snipers trained in Ukraine have arrived in the republic to organize provocations during mass protests.”

    Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili has accused the ruling party of attempting to “steal” the country’s “European future” and seeking to align with Russia. Such was also the claim of Ukrainian nationalists who launched protests in Kiev in late 2013.

    At the height of the protests in the capital dozens of protesters were killed and wounded by gunfire. Nationalists and their Western backers claimed that “government snipers” opened fire on unarmed demonstrators. The incident served as a pretext to forcibly depose the legitimately elected president of Ukraine and declare a new, Western-backed government.

    Georgian Dream officials have warned that the opposition intends to foment civil unrest akin to the ‘color revolution’ in Ukraine in 2014. Moscow has said that the current hostilities with Kiev are partly the result of that insurrection a decade ago.

    A unit composed of Georgian nationalists, dubbed the “Georgian Legion,” has fought on the Ukrainian side of teh conflict with Russia and has been accused of multiple war crimes and violations of the laws of war.

    Russia has rejected any accusations that it somehow influenced the Georgian election, noting that there has been overt interference from the West instead. Despite the opposition’s claims of voting fraud, the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) reported that it observed no systemic irregularities.

    Washington issues new threat to Georgia
    The ex-Soviet country should not stray from Euro-Atlantic integration, the State Department has warned


    The US has threatened Georgia with “consequences,” after the country's pro-NATO political opposition accused the ruling Georgian Dream party of rigging Saturday’s parliamentary election.

    According to the official tally, the Georgian Dream party received almost 54% of the vote, while various opposition parties received 3% to 11%. The victory is expected to give the Georgian Dream at least 90 seats in the 150-member national parliament, allowing it form the Caucasian country's next government.

    Four pro-Western opposition parties have refused to recognize the results and said they would not be taking part in the work of the new legislature. Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili, a former French ambassador to Georgia who acquired citizenship in 2004, refused to recognize the results either and called for protests. A large demonstration was held outside the parliament building in Tbilisi on Monday evening.

    Despite Zourabichvili calling the election a “total fraud,” the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) reported that it observed no systemic voting irregularities. It did, however, claim to have observed incidents of vote-buying and pressure on public sector employees, but praised the diversity of choices on the ballot.

    At a press conference on Monday, US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller said the election was held in an “environment shaped by the ruling party’s policies including misuse of public resources, vote buying and voter intimidation.”

    “We encourage Georgia’s governing officials to consider the relationship they want with the Euro-Atlantic community rather than strengthening policies that are praised by authoritarians,” Miller added.
    “We do not rule out further consequences if the Georgian government’s direction does not change,” he said, urging Tbilisi to start “withdrawing and repealing anti-democratic legislation.”

    Earlier on Monday, 13 EU member states issued a statement expressing “deep concern about the current situation in Georgia” and demanding “an impartial inquiry of complaints and remedy of the violations established.”

    Western governments have accused Georgia of democratic backsliding and warned that its recent policies could hamper the country’s aspirations to join the EU. In 2024, the Georgian Parliament approved laws that allow NGOs to be labeled ‘foreign agents’ and ban LGBTQ ‘propaganda’ to minors, both of which sparked protests.

    The Georgian government has insisted that it would ultimately like to join the EU, but on its own terms. Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze argued that the laws were designed to ensure Georgia’s sovereignty and the interests of the people.

    “The opposition cannot get over their defeat in the election,” Kobakhidze said on Saturday, accusing his opponents of undermining the law. “No one can undermine the constitutional system of our country,” he added.

    "It’s actually incredible when you step back a moment and consider how the West lives increasingly in a total fantasy construct. On every global issue or flashpoint, Western media no longer exercises even the barest scruples, instead blanketly reporting the most fantastical tales with zero corroboration. In Iran we’re expected to believe Israel “decimated” the entire Iranian air defense network, countless major labs and buildings, despite zero proof apart from a single grainy satellite photo that shows a slight discoloration somewhere—far less proof than we got from Iran’s much more massive strike on Israeli bases during True Promise 2.0.

    In Georgia, Western press reports with shameless authority that the election was ‘stolen’ despite no credible evidence. The entire Western order has at this point in its lurid, terminal panic given up on not only truth, but any and all foundational values that have made Western civilization what it was. Threats, lies, and propaganda are flung with no accountability or attempt at justification; it seems we’ve entered the rapid parabolic singularity point of the ‘post-truth’ era in the West. Just like how the Federal Reserve must now exponentiate its printing cycles just to stave off collapse, Western intelligentsia and its corrupt crony political class must now likewise balloon their brazen lies to infinity just to keep from drowning in them as if the buoyancy of volume will keep them up.

    The latest report, here:

    ---

    SITREP 10/28/24: Russia Unleashes Lightning Advances in South as 'Red Scare' Hits Fever Pitch
    Source: Simplicius on Substack

    Concerning North Korean troops, extracted..
    It seems obvious that Kiev is creating a preemptive excuse for their imminent loss of Kursk and the total catastrophic failure of the Kursk operation. In order to excuse and justify the massive failure, they can conjure the ‘North Korean phantom menace’ to claim “we only lost because Russia introduced a surprise shock force of 10,000 North Korean special forces!”

    Naturally, the call for NATO troops would immediately follow. This would be a face-saving psyop to soften the morale blow for their own populace. “We didn’t lose to the Russians, we had them beat until Kim intervened!”
    ---
    And there’s even a third option: Zelensky has finally approved and signed the law allowing foreign officers to fight in the AFU. It would be only a natural extension for him to again sneakily preempt this decision by burying it beneath the news cycle of the DPRK scare in order to imply that Ukraine had to allow foreign officers in to counteract Russia’s use of North Koreans. In those cases the North Korean threat becomes a convenient misdirection for exactly the escalations that Ukraine itself wants to create. In fact, Lavrov appears to state just this at the end of the following video (embedded in Substack)

    He reiterates about Russia and North Korea’s new treaty but says the troops scare is a psyop meant merely to justify what Ukraine itself has already been doing vis-a-vis the Western mercenaries.


    He’s absolutely right: a defense of Russian territory precisely accords with the new strategic partnership between the two countries. As long as Korean troops don’t enter Ukraine proper, then I could very well see their realistic usage in defense roles particularly against Western mercenaries and US troops which we know are already operating there; this would in fact be in full accordance with international law as there is no law that states you cannot have your ally’s troops on your own territory, who are justified in defending themselves if attacked.
    *******

    The article also contains plenty of maps showing the Russian advances. This is a good sample summary image:

    Ukrainian General: The Ukrainian front has collapsed
    by Anti-Spiegel
    October 29, 2024 2:34 PM

    Dmitry Martschenko added that with this information he was “not betraying any military secret”

    The front of the Ukrainian armed forces has collapsed under the onslaught of Russian troops due to fatigue of personnel and a lack of reserves, said Colonel General of the Ukrainian Army Dmitry Marchenko.

    "I am not revealing any military secrets when I say that our front has collapsed," he said in an interview with former Verkhovna Rada deputy Borislav Beryosa. The video is posted on the ex-deputy's YouTube channel.

    According to Marchenko, this development was possible due to certain circumstances. "Firstly, there is a lack of ammunition and weapons. Secondly, there are people - there are no people, there is no reinforcement. People are very tired, they simply can no longer hold the fronts they are on. And thirdly, there is an imbalance in the command staff," he stressed.

    On October 24, the Ukrainian General Staff reported on the difficult situation of the Ukrainian army along the entire front line.

    Earlier, retired SBU Colonel Oleg Starikov expressed the opinion that the Ukrainian Armed Forces were showing signs of a partial collapse of the front line. According to him, to solve the problems that have arisen on the front line, resources and motivated soldiers are needed, which the Ukrainian army does not have in sufficient quantities.

    🇺🇦 Locals Allege Ukrainian Soldiers Committed War Crimes in Newly Liberated Village

    Locals from a recently freed village have reported Ukrainian war crimes, claiming that soldiers from the 68th Jaeger, 152nd Mechanized, and 59th Motorized Infantry Brigades of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, who were in control of the area, shot individuals who refused to leave their homes. The soldiers allegedly took innocent people into the yard and executed them, leaving the bodies as a warning to others.

    Nuclear Strike Simulation

    The Russian military rehearsed a massive nuclear strike in response to a simulated enemy attack during nuclear deterrence exercises overseen by President Putin.

    The drills involved launching Sineva and Bulava ballistic missiles from the Novomoskovsk nuclear submarine in the Barents Sea and the Knyaz Oleg submarine in the Okhotsk and Barents Seas. Cruise missiles were launched from Tu-95MS strategic bombers, along with Yars intercontinental ballistic missiles.

    The Russian Defense Ministry reported that all objectives were achieved, with missiles successfully reaching their targets, following a briefing by Belousov and Gerasimov.

    Putin conducted a drill for Russia’s strategic nuclear deterrent forces.

    “Russia will transition its Strategic Missile Forces to new-generation mobile and stationary systems with reduced launch preparation times and enhanced capabilities to overcome missile defense systems,” he added.

    The president also stated that Russia’s nuclear forces are now equipped with modern weaponry at a 94% rate.

    ❗️🇷🇺🇺🇦 South Donetsk direction: liberation of Bogoyavlenka and Shakhtarske, battles for Katerynivka

    Situation as of 19:00 October 29, 2024

    After breaking through the Ukrainian line of defense near Ugledar, Russian troops continue their offensive in the direction of Kurakhovo.

    ▪️ Footage has appeared online confirming the presence of the Russian Armed Forces in Yasnaya Polyana and at least control of the southwestern outskirts. In the northeastern part, fighting continued during the day, there is no information yet about its end and the clearing of the village.

    ▪️The battles for Yasnaya Polyana also indicate the complete liberation of Shakhtyorskoye, located to the south, most of which Russian troops occupied on October 27. This is also supported by footage showing the Russian Armed Forces reaching the northeastern outskirts and the Ukrainian Armed Forces retreating towards the forested area to the west.

    ▪️In Bogoyavlenka (Dobrovolye), Russian flags were also raised on the western outskirts of the village and farms to the east were taken under control. Thus, in just a few days, the Russian Armed Forces liberated two settlements in this direction.

    ▪️The Russian Defense Ministry announced the complete liberation of Katerynivka, although this has not yet been confirmed by materials on the Internet. However, by October 27, the Russian Armed Forces took fire control of the road to Yelizavetovka: no more than three hundred meters remain to the nearest positions of Ukrainian troops, in connection with which supplying the Ukrainian Armed Forces on the western outskirts is difficult.

    It is worth noting that Russian flags have already been raised in the central part of Katerinovka. In addition, on the morning of October 28, footage from the enemy's side appeared on the Internet, confirming the attack of the Russian Armed Forces between Katerinovka and the Solenkaya gully, where fierce clashes took place.

    At the same time, it is not worth waiting for the raising of flags in the western part due to the proximity to Ukrainian positions at neighboring Antonovka and Ilyinka , located to the north on a hill and providing the opportunity to shoot at the road between Yelizavetovka and Katerynivka. Most likely, the Sukhie Yaly River bed and the adjacent fields will remain in the "gray zone" for now.

    ▪️In the area of ​​Konstantinovka, the use of the BMPT Terminator by Russian troops, which took part in the attack on Antonovka, was captured. In the fields west of Pobeda, there is no information yet about a change in the configuration of the front.
