Putin Recognizes Donbass Republics, Sends Russian Military to 'Denazify' Ukraine

[Ocean]

Great article. Unfortunately The Cult *wants* to provoke war with Russia. We've known this since 2005. It's an essential part of their plan to cause chaos, death and suffering so they can then step forward from the shadows and demand allegiance.


U.S./NATO Is in the Grip of a Daemonic Death-Wish and the Entire World Is Threatened



Not wanting to sound hyperbolic, but I am starting to conclude that the nuclear madmen running the U.S./NATO New Cold War they started decades ago are itching to start a nuclear war with Russia. Their hypocrisy and nihilistic thirst for death and destruction are so extreme that it boggles my mind. They accuse Russia of starting a New Cold War when they did so decades ago and have been pushing the envelope ever since. Now they act shocked that Russia, after many years of patience, has struck back in Ukraine.

In 2017, Oliver Stone released his four part interviews with Russian President Vladimir Putin. The Putin Interviews were conducted between 2015, the year after the U.S. engineered the coup d’état in Ukraine installing Nazis to power in that country bordering Russia, and 2017. Stone was of course bashed for daring to respectfully ask questions and receive answers from the Russian leader who the American media has always cast, like all the mythic bogeymen, as the new Hitler intent on conquering the world, when it is the United States, not Russia, that has over 750 military bases throughout the world and has attacked Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria – the list is endless.

In his Putin interviews, Oliver Stone, a man of truth and honor, lets viewers catch a glimpse of the real Vladimir Putin and the matters that concern him as the leader of Russia. In 2018, I wrote of those interviews:

. . . he [Putin] makes factual points that should ring loud and clear to anyone conversant with facts. One: that the U.S. needs an external enemy (“I know that, I feel that.”). Two: the U.S.A. engineered the coup d’état in the Ukraine on Russia’s border. Three: the U.S. has surrounded Russia with US/NATO troops and bases armed with anti-ballistic missiles that can, as Putin rightly says to Stone, be converted in hours to regular offensive nuclear missile aimed at Russia. This is a factual and true statement that should make any fair-minded person stand up in horror. If Russia had such missiles encircling the United States from Cuba, Mexico, and Canada, what American would find it tolerable? What would CNN and The New York Times have to say? Yet these same people readily find it impossible to see the legitimacy in Russia’s position, resorting to name calling and illogical rhetoric. Russia is surrounded with U.S/NATO troops and missiles and yet Russia is the aggressor.

In the years since those interviews, U.S./NATO has consistently tightened the noose around Russia, including fueling the Ukrainian attacks on the Donbass, killing thousands, all the while pleading innocent and expecting no reply. Now the reply has come.

Although I have no inside information, I get the sense that the Western Empire is planning/initiating counter-measures far more extreme than the highly publicized economic sanctions. While it is true, as many commentators such as Ray McGovern and Pepe Escobar have pointed out, that a paradigm shift is underway and the once dominant U.S./NATO bully boys must now contend with the Sino-Russian alliance that has ushered in a dramatic change, nevertheless, as in the past decades, the so-called leaders of the U.S. are a dumb bunch driven by unquenchable demons. As McGovern says:

Yet, there remain unsettling indications coming from Under Secretary of State for Political Affairs Victoria Nuland, Antony Blinken, and Jake Sullivan that senior administration ‘dolts’ (copyright North Korean leader Kim Jong Un) in the Washington Swamp still don’t get it.

Russia is working on organizing humanitarian flights to evacuate Russians
Tass • 1 March 2022

I was surprized being able to read the Tass. They provided an article about possible humanitarian flights from countries in the west where most Russians might/are located.

MOSCOW, March 1. /TASS/.

Russia is working on organising humanitarian flights to evacuate Russians from countries with the largest groups of Russian citizens, Rosaviatsiya said.

"The issue of organising humanitarian flights from the countries where there are the most numerous groups of our citizens is currently being worked out. Humanitarian flights will be possible provided that the aviation authorities of the EU countries from/through which the flights will be organized," the agency said.

Rosaviatsia, together with the Russian Foreign Ministry and Rostourism, with the participation of leading Russian airlines, will collect data and estimate the necessary carrying capacity required for the flights.

Meanwhile, the agency recommends that Russian citizens consider alternative routes back home, calling it the most preferable at the moment. "Given the experience of organising such flights in 2020, data collection and processing requires time and dedicated resources. Therefore, Russian citizens are advised to consider alternative routes to return home, which at the moment seems to be the most preferable," the statement said.

In particular, the Federal Air Transport Agency proposes to use commercial flights of foreign airlines to fly to third countries that do not restrict air traffic with Russia, and then return to Russia using Russian or foreign airlines. For example, flights are possible via Armenia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Qatar, the UAE, Turkey and other countries. It is also proposed to use mixed (multimodal) transport routes: for example, to reach destinations in Latvia, Lithuania, Poland and Finland using foreign airlines' flights or other means of transport. Then one can get to points on the territory of Russia by land transport, including via Belarus.

On the eve it became known that the Federal Air Transport Agency, Rostourism and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will organize transportation of Russian citizens from Europe back home and Russian airlines are ready to fulfill obligations and return passengers to their homes with a flexible approach of aviation authorities of countries that have closed their airspace to Russia.

Rosaviatsia recommends that Russians refrain from non-service travel abroad for the time being, the agency said.

On Monday, Russia closed its airspace to 36 countries in response to the closure of airspace for Russian aircraft. In addition to Britain, Bulgaria, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Romania, Estonia, the Czech Republic, Slovenia and Poland, with which flights had already been closed, the updated list included 27 other countries, including Germany, Spain, Italy and France. It was noted that flights from the aforementioned countries could be carried out under a special permit issued by Rosaviatsiya or the Russian Foreign Ministry. On 27 February, the foreign ministers of the 27 EU member states approved a complete closure of the community's airspace for Russian aircraft.

Translated with help of DeepL

МОСКВА, 1 марта. /ТАСС/. Россия прорабатывает организацию гуманитарных рейсов для вывоза россиян из стран, в которых находятся наиболее многочисленные группы граждан РФ, сообщила Росавиация.

"Вопрос организации гуманитарных рейсов из стран, в которых находятся наиболее многочисленные группы наших граждан, в настоящее время прорабатывается. Выполнение гуманитарных рейсов будет возможно при условии положительных решений авиационных властей стран ЕС, из/через которые будут организованы данные рейсы", - говорится в сообщении агентства.

Росавиация вместе с МИД России и Ростуризмом с участием ведущих российских авиакомпаний проведет сбор данных и оценит необходимые провозные емкости, требуемые для перевозки.

Между тем, агентство рекомендует гражданам России рассмотреть альтернативные маршруты возвращения домой, называя это наиболее предпочтительным на текущий момент. "Принимая во внимание опыт организации подобных рейсов в 2020 году, сбор данных и их обработка требуют времени и создания специальных ресурсов. В этой связи гражданам России рекомендуется рассмотреть альтернативные маршруты возвращения домой, что на текущий момент представляется наиболее предпочтительным", - говорится в сообщении.

В частности, Росавиация предлагает использовать коммерческие рейсы иностранных авиакомпаний для перелета в третьи страны, не ограничившие авиасообщение с РФ, а затем возвращаться в РФ рейсами российских или иностранных авиакомпаний. Например, перелеты возможны через Азербайджан, Армению, Казахстан, Катар, ОАЭ, Турцию и другие страны. Также предлагается использовать маршруты смешанного (мультимодального) транспортного сообщения: например, добираться до пунктов в Латвии, Литве, Польше и Финляндии, используя рейсы иностранных авиакомпаний или другой вид транспорта. Затем наземным транспортом добираться в пункты на территории России, в том числе через Белоруссию.

Накануне стало известно, что Росавиация, Ростуризм и МИД организуют вывоз граждан РФ из Европы домой, авиакомпании РФ готовы выполнить обязательства и вернуть пассажиров на родину при гибком подходе авиавластей стран, закрывших воздушное пространство для России.

Росавиация рекомендует россиянам пока воздержаться от поездок неслужебного характера за границу, сообщило агентство.

В понедельник Россия закрыла воздушное пространство для 36 стран в качестве ответной меры на закрытие воздушного пространства для российских самолетов. Кроме Великобритании, Болгарии, Латвии, Литвы, Молдавии, Румынии, Эстонии, Словении, Чехии и Польши, с которыми авиасообщение уже было закрыто, в обновленный список попали еще 27 стран, включая Германию, Испанию, Италию и Францию. Отмечалось, что полеты из указанных стран могут быть выполнены по специальному разрешению, выданному Росавиацией или МИД России. 27 февраля министры иностранных дел 27 стран Евросоюза одобрили полное закрытие воздушного пространства сообщества для самолетов РФ.

Watch this video of an American in Kiev and you will understand what is really happening in Ukraine and what Russia is really doing.

Repost widely to spread the reality of what's really happening.
Video 18 mins.

 

[Tycho]

This can be the biggest problem:
As soon as foreign warplanes enter Ukraine to hit Russian forces, Russian missiles will likely hit the foreign airports, thus, targeting the NATO territory. This is how the WWIII may become. Could this become a false flag event.


I read it as the possible beginning of nuclear war in Europe.

Yes, i count on Russia taking out any third party airports which will be used in attacks on russian troops immediately. Which would, most probably mean WW3. He doesnt need a nuke to take out a single airport though. With the current, highly aggressive behaviour of the EU it unluckily looks like this will escalate fast.

How to sideline laws & democracy: Italy
New state of emergency declared in Italy until 31 Dec 2022



It is ironic, is it not ?

At the same time, it isn't that surprising for Italy - the country who so willingly took the lead to introduce the Plandemic into Europe with stark measurements back in early March 2020. (and almost all ducks followed as we know) The state of Emergency for Covid in Italy, created in March 2020 lasting until the end of March 2022... Well, then you create another State of Emergency... for the war in Ukraine... in order to sideline common sense, laws and "democracy". Shipping weapons off to Ukraine... (and god knows what else flies under the radar with help of "emergency laws")

Anything goes, it feels like.

Everything the west has done, and is doing - has been increasingly climaxing during the Covid Plandemic - and now with Ukraine it reaches another unprecedented level of insanity. How deeply cynical governance has become in public and "democratic states"; which are - let's face it - nothing else than poor states of affairs for the citizens in Europe. They want to kill nations, isn't that the plan, it seems ? Suicide missions (economy, climate change etc) and high stake gambling in matter of war - is what I see.

Also when I read the Swedish news, i just want to barf how everything revolving Russia and Putin is turned upside down. Common sense ? There just isn't any to be found, I feel.

EURACTIVE writes 1 March 2022, 07:43

Italy has declared a state of emergency over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, and will send weapons and aid to the latter according to a decree approved by the Italian Council of Ministers on Monday.

“For this reason, it approved the declaration of a state of emergency until 31 December 2022, aimed at ensuring relief and assistance to the Ukrainian population on the national territory as a consequence of the serious international crisis in progress,” a press release states.

In Italy, the state of emergency, which entered into force in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, should have ended on 31 March 2022.

The Council of Ministers has also decided “to increase the relief and assistance measures for the people who are seeking and will seek refuge in the European Union” following the conflict in Ukraine, the statement reads.

The government decree also provides for strengthening the reception network with an increase of 16,000 places, an allocation of €10 million, and the possibility for Ukrainian refugees to be hosted in reception centres even if they have not applied for international protection.

In the note, the government specified that “until 31 December 2022, subject to a resolution by parliament, the transfer of military means, materials and equipment to the government authorities of Ukraine is authorised”.

According to the newspaper la Repubblica, Italy could supply Kyiv with anti-tank missiles, MG 42/59, Browning machine guns, Stinger missiles, and anti-IED systems.

The Council of Ministers also decided in favour of “preventive purposes, to anticipate the adoption of measures to increase the supply and/or reduction of gas demand envisaged in emergencies, an eventuality that at the moment does not correspond to that where our country is located”.

In addition, “it is immediately possible to reduce the gas consumption of power plants, by maximising production from other sources and without prejudice to the contribution of renewable energies”.

There are sprouts of the beginning of a new Ukraine

The proclamation of the State of the Federal Republic of Ukraine has been announced

01.03.2022 - 5:30
The proclamation of the state of the Federal Republic of Ukraine
In the regional and city councils of Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Sumy and other regions of Ukraine, discussion of the Manifesto on the creation of a new state has begun.

Manifesto on the formation of the State of the Federal Republic of Ukraine
We, the free people of Kharkiv, Mykolaiv, Sumy, Chernihiv and other regions of Ukraine, declare and proclaim the formation of a new democratic state, the Federal Republic of Ukraine.

When the course of events leads to the fact that people of different nations and peoples are forced to dissolve the political ties that bind them to the state association by dictatorial repressive methods that impose the ideology of Nazism on society, they have an inalienable right to take an independent and equal place among the powers of the world, respect for the opinion of humanity requires them to explain the reasons that prompted him to such separation.

When a long series of blatant and inhuman abuses and violence, invariably subordinated to the same goal, testifies to the insidious plan to force our peoples to accept unlimited despotism, dictatorship and complete rehabilitation of Nazism, the overthrow of such a government and the creation of new security guarantees for the future becomes the right and duty of the peoples of Ukraine.

The peoples of Ukraine have been patient for a long time, and only necessity forces them to change the previous system of their government.

The history of the existence of the state of Ukraine is a set of countless injustices and violence, the purpose of which is to establish unlimited despotism and neo-fascist dictatorship.

To confirm the above, we present the following facts to the impartial court of all mankind.

The glorification of Nazi criminals guilty of genocide and the extermination of hundreds of thousands of people — Ukrainians, Russians, Jews, Poles and people of other nationalities - has been carried out.

► Freedom of speech and press, freedom of assembly has been eliminated.

► Political opposition is prohibited.

► A system of total surveillance, reprisals against undesirables and mass murders is organized.

► The justice system has been destroyed.

► A corrupt model of public administration has been created, which has led to the exodus from the country of 7 to 12 million people deprived of their means of livelihood.

► The healthcare system was destroyed, which led to a catastrophic extinction of the population.

► Education reform has been carried out, education in Russian, Hungarian and other languages is prohibited.

Finally, the civil war in the Donbas has been unleashed.

The ruling regime in Kiev united with other persons in order to subordinate us to a jurisdiction alien to our constitution and not recognized by our laws, approved acts that claimed to become legislation and served for:

conducting exercises and quartering the armed forces of foreign states in our country;

liberation through trials, which are only apparently such, from the punishments of the military and police who committed the murders of residents;

termination of our trade with other states;

♦ elimination of jobs;

forcing citizens to leave the country in search of earnings;

taxing us without our consent;

depriving us in many court cases of the opportunity to enjoy the benefits of a jury trial;

cancellation of some and adoption of other laws that contradict the wishes of the majority of the population of Ukraine;

revoking the rights and freedoms granted to us, repealing our most useful laws and radically changing the forms of our government;

* suspending the activities of local and regional authorities and appropriating the powers to legislate instead of us in a variety of cases.

Therefore, we, the representatives of the regions of Ukraine, having in our hearts the honesty of our intentions, on behalf and by the authorization of the peoples of these regions, solemnly record and declare that these regions are and rightfully should be free and independent, that they are freed from all dependence on the Kiev authorities and that all political ties between them and the state of Ukraine should be completely severed, that as free and independent states they are authorized to declare war, conclude peace treaties, enter into alliances, conduct trade, to perform any other actions and everything that an independent state has the right to do.

Our goal is to unite all the peoples of Ukraine who do not want to put up with the domination of neo-Nazism and bloody crimes on our land.

Our goal is to create a democratic federal state and carry out complete denazification and de-vandalization, the introduction of criminal responsibility for the rehabilitation of Nazism.

Our goal is to create a democratic federal State where every nation will be able to speak its own language. The number of official languages is not limited.

Our goal is to create a democratic federal State, where the main goals will be to ensure human rights and freedoms.

Our goal is to create a democratic federal state, where freedom of religion will be ensured and the independence of the Church from the state will be guaranteed.

Our goal is to create a democratic federal State and punish war criminals guilty of unleashing civil war and mass bloodshed.

Our goal is to create a democratic federal State with a free market economy.

Our goal is neutrality and friendly relations with all countries of the world.

We ask all countries of the world to recognize the state of the Federal Republic of Ukraine.

And may the Lord help us in this.

The manifesto is open for signature by representatives of regional and city councils of all regions of Ukraine.

Появляются ростки начала новой Украины

Заявлено о провозглашении государства Федеративная Республика Украина​

01.03.2022 - 5:30

В областных и городских советах Харьковщины, Николаевщины, Сумщины и других областей Украины началось обсуждение Манифеста о создании нового государства.

Манифест об образовании государства Федеративная Республика Украина​

Мы, свободный народ Харьковской, Николаевской, Сумской, Черниговской и других областей Украины, объявляем и провозглашаем образование нового демократического государства Федеративная Республика Украина.
Когда ход событий приводит к тому, что люди разных наций и народов вынуждены расторгнуть политические узы, связывающие их с государственным объединением диктаторскими репрессивными методами, навязывающими обществу идеологию нацизма, они имеют неотъемлемое право занять самостоятельное и равное место среди держав мира, уважительное отношение к мнению человечества требует от них разъяснения причин, побудивших его к такому отделению.
Когда длинный ряд вопиющих и бесчеловечных злоупотреблений и насилий, неизменно подчиненных одной и той же цели, свидетельствует о коварном замысле вынудить наши народы смириться с неограниченным деспотизмом, диктатурой и полной реабилитацией нацизма, свержение такого правительства и создание новых гарантий безопасности на будущее становится правом и обязанностью народов Украины.

Народы Украины длительное время проявляли терпение, и только необходимость вынуждает их изменить прежнюю систему своего правительства.

История существования государства Украина — это набор бесчисленных несправедливостей и насилий, целью которых является установление неограниченного деспотизма и неофашистской диктатуры.
Для подтверждения сказанного выше представляем на беспристрастный суд всего человечества следующие факты.
► Проведена героизация нацистских преступников, виновных в геноциде и уничтожении сотен тысяч человек — украинцев, русских, евреев, поляков и людей других национальностей.
► Ликвидирована свобода слова и печати, свобода собраний.
► Запрещена политическая оппозиция.
► Организована система тотальной слежки, расправ с неугодными и массовых убийств.
► Уничтожена система правосудия.

► Создана коррупционная модель государственного управления, приведшая к исходу из страны от 7 до 12 миллионов человек, лишённых средств к существованию.

► Уничтожена система здравоохранения, что привело к катастрофическому вымиранию населения.
► Проведена реформа образования, запрещено обучение на русском, венгерском и других языках.
► Наконец, развязана гражданская война на Донбассе.
Правящий режим в Киеве объединялся с другими лицами, чтобы подчинить нас юрисдикции, чуждой нашей конституции и не признаваемой нашими законами, утверждал акты, претендовавшие стать законодательством и служившие для:
♦ проведения учений и расквартирования у нас вооруженных сил иностранных государств;
♦ освобождения посредством судебных процессов, являющихся таковыми только по видимости, от наказаний военных и полицейских, совершивших убийства жителей;
♦ прекращения нашей торговли с другими государствами;
♦ ликвидации рабочих мест;
♦ принуждения граждан к выезду из страны в поисках заработка;
♦ обложения нас налогами без нашего согласия;
♦ лишения нас по многим судебным делам возможности пользоваться преимуществами суда присяжных;
♦ отмены одних и принятия других законов, которые противоречат желаниям большинства населения Украины;
♦ отзыва предоставленных нам прав и свобод, отмены наших наиболее полезных законов и коренного изменения форм нашего правительства;
♦ приостановления деятельности органов местной и региональной власти и присвоения себе полномочий законодательствовать вместо нас в самых различных случаях.
Поэтому мы, представители областей Украины, имея в наших сердцах честность наших намерений, от имени и по уполномочию народов этих областей, торжественно записываем и заявляем, что эти области являются и по праву должны быть свободными и независимыми, что они освобождаются от всякой зависимости по отношению к киевской власти и что все политические связи между ними и государством Украина должны быть полностью разорваны, что в качестве свободных и независимых государств они полномочны объявлять войну, заключать мирные договоры, вступать в союзы, вести торговлю, совершать любые другие действия и все то, на что имеет право независимое государство.

Нашей целью является объединение всех народов Украины, не желающих мириться с господством неонацизма и кровавых преступлений на нашей земле.

Нашей целью является создание демократического федеративного государства и проведение полной денацификации и дебандеризации, введение уголовной ответственности за реабилитацию нацизма.
Нашей целью является создание демократического федеративного государства, где каждый народ сможет говорить на своём языке. Количество государственных языков не ограничивается.
Нашей целью является создание демократического федеративного государства, где главными целями будут обеспечение прав и свобод человека.

Нашей целью является создание демократического федеративного государства, где будет обеспечена свобода вероисповедания и гарантирована независимость Церкви от государства.

Нашей целью является создание демократического федеративного государства и наказание военных преступников, виновных в развязывании гражданской войны и массовом кровопролитии.
Нашей целью является создание демократического федеративного государства со свободной рыночной экономикой.
Нашей целью является нейтралитет и дружеские отношения со всеми государствами мира.

Мы просим все страны мира признать государство Федеративная Республика Украина.

И да поможет нам в этом Господь.
Манифест открыт для подписания представителями областных и городских советов всех областей Украины.

What is Really Going on in Ukraine? An Alternative Scenario​

What is Really Going on in Ukraine? An Alternative Scenario

www.thegatewaypundit.com

The Western media is filled with stories of the brave Ukrainian people rising up to fight the evil Russians and the Russians are paying a terrible toll, or so we are told. But if you step back and look at what is actually transpiring you will note the following:

• Unlike the U.S. “shock and awe” unleashed on Baghdad in 2003, which caused significant civilian casualties and destroyed infrastructure and damaged power grids and destroyed bridges, the Russian military is avoiding hitting population centers. The power is still on in Kiev and Kharkiv last I checked.
• You are not seeing raging battles in the streets of Kiev or Kharkov between Ukrainian and Russian military forces.

Some believe this indicates Putin’s troops are bogged down and making little progress. But I think there is an alternative explanation. First, Russia has not deployed its most sophisticated weaponry. It remains in place in Russia on the Ukrainian border but showing no signs as of this writing of being activated. Second, little attention is being paid to eastern Ukraine where the bulk of the Ukrainian Army is deployed. Jacob Dreizin offers some important insight on this:You won’t hear this on CNN, but Putin’s Army of Darkness, in the most complex and ambitious ground maneuver operation since World War 2, following the Soviet “deep war” playbook, is also working on cutting off the Ukrainian army group in the Donbass fromKiev. This is by far the most capable (or only capable) large portion of the Ukrainian army. Yesterday, its main reserves of diesel fuel were destroyed from the air. It will soon be cut off and immobile.
Once that happens, the entire Donbass front collapses (they will no longer have a “front”), and BILLIONS of dollars in U.S.-funded or U.S.-supplied weaponry will be captured almost without a battle. (To be clear, it’s almost all U.S. funded or supplied—even most of the Soviet vintage stuff was bought and shipped in from Poland, Czechia, etc. by the CIA, “off the books” but well documented in videos of tank trains crossing the border into Ukraine, in 2015-2016.)

The Russians have finally entered Kharkov, Ukraine’s second largest city, very close to the Russian border. Previously, they had bypassed it the same way that America bypassed every town in southern Iraq to reach Baghdad in 2003. On Saturday night, they finally wasted all significant, organized resistance with a rain of thermobaric death in the outskirts. Today, they started to go in and mop up. Of course, it’s not a job for one day.
The Ukrainian army is falling back (mostly in organized fashion) throughout the Donbass. They have largely evacuated Mariupol, a very pro-Russian, major steelmaking and steel-shipping center (responsible for billions of dollars in exports) on the Sea of Azov. The sole garrison in Mariupol is now said to be the Azov regiment, a group of bona fide, tattooed Nazis—you know, your typical Ukrainian democracy guys, the ones the MSM doesn’t tell you about, and our State Department prefers to ignore. The kind of guys you must use to garrison a pro-Russian city that hates you.

The “real” army looks to be falling back to Dnepropetrovsk, about 60 miles west of Donetsk, if the Russians don’t cut them off—that’s now the big “if.” Either way, they’ll get hit badly from the air.
They are leaving behind lots of brand spanking new, British and American weaponry. I wish I had time to make a photo collage for you. It turns out, the stuff doesn’t work well. Among other things, you have to charge the battery on those Javelins or whatever. No charge, no fire. No one told them. I guess they had so many dumped on them, it was not realistic to plug them all into the wall, and sit there and wait. I can relate, I don’t even like waiting to charge one new smartphone.
The Ukrainian Air Force, what is left of it, is now flying on Helen Keller terms. It seems that Ukraine combat aircraft rely on ground controlled radar to conduct air to air intercepts. Guess what the Russians obliterated in the first hours of their invasion on Wednesday? If you said, “ground controlled radar” you are a winner.

Without that radar the Russians have air superiority. They have castrated the Ukrainians’ ability to provide close air support and disrupt Russian air cover. They are flying blind (if they are flying and can find an operational air field.) Then there are the lines of communication for the Ukrainian Army. Critical military fuel dumps are on fire and the ability of the Ukrainian Army to keep their tanks and trucks running is slipping away.
This perhaps explains the volte face of Zelensky in being willing to sit down with the Russians and try to negotiate an end to the evisceration of Ukraine’s military capability.https://trends.revcontent.com/click.php?d=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&s2s=1

According to Alexander Mercouris there will be a prosperous future for a cooperation of the RF and Ukraine. Europe however, will stall economically, even when the gas does not gets cut.
The cauldron of Maripol holds with 60.000 Ukrainian troops, the main part of their forces, once this is handled, and RF has been fighting careful enough as not to antagonize their neighbors too much, the conflict will be settled. Het think some of Galicia will be taken by Poland.

Something to keep an eye on.

Imprisonment for supporting Russia online - Police are already investigating dozens of complaints

Czech police are already investigating dozens of complaints from people who reported that someone had publicly approved and supported the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

On Saturday, Attorney General Igor Stříž warned that they could face up to three years in prison for supporting Russian aggression, for example at demonstrations or on social networks. Police said at noon on Sunday that they were already investigating dozens of cases in which someone had approved the Russian invasion.

"We record dozens of comments in internet discussions approving the Russian invasion and the activities of the Russian army. We closely monitor the Internet environment and apologize for not responding to every sign in the posts. It is not always desirable and tactical," police said on Twitter.

Also this report from neighboring Slovakia (also via Google Translate):

Slovak man faces long prison term for supporting war propaganda

In connection with the Russian military invasion of Ukraine, the police warn that in some cases imprisonment for 10 to 25 years to life may be threatened for the promotion of the war.

The National Criminal Agency (NAKA) will adequately address the search for such crime on the Internet. "Whoever in a crisis situation intends to disrupt the peace in any way, promotes war, or otherwise supports war propaganda, is punishable by imprisonment for ten to 25 years, or imprisonment for life," the police said, pointing to § 417 of the Criminal Code.

If they find such action, they will take uncompromising and vigorous action against such persons, "with the use of special police units." Currently, an emergency situation applies in Slovakia. The government decided on this in connection with the mass influx of foreigners into the territory of the Slovak Republic before the war in Ukraine.

I ran across this.., analysis (I suppose you could call it that), from a guy who has both the chops for excellent observation and communication, and has served in two wars.

He calls this the weirdest war he's ever seen. Mostly he seems flabbergasted by what he has seen so far; nobody appears to know what they're doing.

Don't know why you think this is a good video, the guy is clearly making stuff up.

Don't know why you think this is a good video, the guy is clearly making stuff up.

No he's not.

It may well be that he's misinterpreting propaganda, however.

In Switzerland a message has been passed to staff that Ukrainians with a valid passport can travel for free on the public transports here. It seems to be aligned with an initiative from the EU. Such a situation never happened to refugees from Iraq, Afghanistan, Ethiopia, Sudan, Libya, Syria etc.

Just like Covid this (the propaganda and the actions) is highly coordinated and supported by the same top players, like WEF, banking elite, media networks etc. Countries across Europe have in unison promised weapons to Ukraine, allowed/encouraged its citizens to go fight in Ukraine, sanctioned Russian planes from EU airspace, made more sanctions against Russia, censored information.

There is something about Ukraine, which points to that this is a key battle for the Empire and all their vassal states. If the Nazi Third Reich was a trial run, it appears as if this is the real deal and the final push for everlasting world domination, subjugation and STS enslavement.

Added: (the propaganda and the actions) to the sentence above for clarity.

Good article about the ideological war

War In Ukraine Day 5: Russian Advance Faces Ukrainian Stand Off, While Kiev Wins Ideological War (Video, 18+)

On February 28, the situation inside Ukraine began to take on the shapes of chaos close to what was happening...

southfront.org

Many people don't seem to understand that that post from a participant from western Ukraine is not just the opinion of a resident of western Ukraine, I can say this as a resident of a largely Russian-speaking region. If earlier at family feasts everyone called the government Westerners or Bandera and criticized the Maidan and its consequences, now I have literally 0 relatives who do not want Putin to die. With acquaintances, the situation is the same, even those ethnic Russians, and not just Russian speakers whom I know help create fortifications. So yes, indoctrination has the highest efficiency people are sure that the Russians are bombing cities with everything they can, what difference does it make that they do not do this if the civilians think they are doing it. And all this is not to mention the youth who grew up in the confidence of the Russian occupation of the Donbass. I just can’t even imagine how Russia, having installed its puppet government, will be able to carry out its indoctrination, especially among young people who will consider that this is occupational propaganda, it is impossible to block information even with the great Chinese firewall, you can enter social networks banned in China thanks to vpn, and Russia has close such no technological possibilities

He is live streaming right now:

Thank you, this is brilliant. I'm sure he got a few things wrong with his speculations, but this really really gives you a good grasp of what's going on. He also lays bare some of the Russian thinking that probably goes on behind the scenes and behind the diplomatic utterances. Warning: at times he is very vulgar.

He also a Telegram channel:

Here I talk about whatever’s on my mind. Unvaxed—and if that makes you angry and makes you hope that I die soon, I want you to know that I have no such wish for you.

Apparently Polish president is not going to send planes to Ukraine. Interesting order from his bosses in US.

Prezydent Duda: Nie wysyłamy naszych samolotów na Ukrainę. NATO nie jest stroną tego konfliktu

- Nie wysyłamy naszych samolotów, ponieważ to oznaczałoby ingerencję militarną w konflikt, który toczy się na Ukrainie, włączenie się tym samym NATO w konflikt
