You take good care, Serg. Report what you can only if safe to do so.

Thank you, Voyageur.
You know what is interesting, few minutes after i post this post, i received sort of "fireball" of protection.
I have this kind of experience after some time of paying. I feel i have to share this.

As at the beginning of Covid when almost no one saw through the deception, it is again very unfortunate to see many alternative journalists falling for the same tactics, this time the anti-Russian hysteria. Apparently, we now again need another 2 years before a large portion sees through the lie. If they are able to figure it out at all.

It may not even stretch for two years. Once the Russians are involved, they tend to get the job done rather quickly. Also, a significant portion of the Earth's population is not destined to realise anything but eventually perish in their ignorance at the hands of the nature. It's part of their learning.

Belarus referendum approves proposal to renounce non-nuclear status - agencies

A referendum in Belarus on Sunday approved a new constitution ditching the country's non-nuclear status at a time when the former Soviet republic has become a launch pad for Russian troops invading Ukraine, Russian news agencies said.

As demonstrated where exactly? Afghanistan?

War Propaganda About Ukraine Becoming More Militaristic, Authoritarian, and Reckless

In the weeks leading up to the Russian invasion of Ukraine, those warning of the possible dangers of U.S. involvement were assured that such concerns were baseless. The prevailing line insisted that nobody in Washington is even considering let...

This was an excellent article by Glenn Greenwald, well worth the time to read.

None of this means the views you may have formed about the war in Ukraine are right or wrong. It is of course possible that the Western consensus is the overwhelmingly accurate one and that the moral framework that has been embraced is the correct prism for understanding this conflict. All sides in war wield propaganda, and that certainly includes the Russians and their allies as well. This article is not intended to urge the adoption of one viewpoint or the other.

It is, instead, intended to urge the recognition of what the effects of being immersed in one-sided, intense and highly emotionalized war propaganda are — effects on your thinking, your reasoning, your willingness to endorse claims or support policies, your comfort with having dissent either banished or inherently legitimized. Precisely because this propaganda has been cultivated over centuries to so powerfully and adeptly manipulate our most visceral reactions, it is something to be resisted even if — perhaps especially if — it is coming from the side or viewpoint you support.

Just read this information on the telegram channel which was linked earlier in this thread :

️ Belarus has voted for constitutional change in today's referendum, with new constitution revoking the country's non-nuclear status.

Channel is this one : Intel Slava Z (Intel Slava Z)
Someone confirms ?

Put these two articles together, and I think we can confirm.

Belarus carries out constitutional referendum

The referendum on the changes to Belarus’ main law was prompted by 2020 protests

www.rt.com

Belarus’ referendum on constitutional changes has been declared valid with more than 50% of the voters attending polling stations by midday, the local news agency Belta reported on Sunday.

...

There are also some changes concerning the president's right to impose a state of emergency, as well as some family law amendments.

Interestingly enough, this plebiscite was in planning stages in 2020. I think the Belarusians must be blessed with the luck of good timing. Nothing specifically about nukes in this report. But it's clear that they are very interested in deterrence:

Lukashenko describes conditions for nuclear deployment

Deployment of Western nuclear weapons near Belarus’ borders would force Minsk to ask for “return” of such armaments, Lukashenko warned

www.rt.com

Speaking to the media on Sunday, Belarus’ leader recalled a conversation with his French counterpart Emmanuel Macron. According to him, on Saturday he told Macron that “if America, or France, also a nuclear power, transfer their nuclear weapons to Poland, to Lithuania, to our borders,” than he will ask the Russian President Vladimir Putin “to return the weapons that I gave you away in the past without any preconditions.”

I don't blame them, what with most of Europe suddenly putting in some significant poker chips to the Ukrainian war effort.

South Ossetia, Crimea, Syria.

Looks to be a game-board shuffle... and not a minor one, either.

Ukrainian embassy in Israel enlisting citizens for ‘combat missions against Russian aggressor’

hello world this is a new article

thecradle.co

Even before the Ukraine conflict started, Tel Aviv had been hoping to avoid making the hazardous choice between Washington and Moscow.

However, on 24 February, the government of Israel was finally forced to pick a side, issuing a statement calling the Russian military operation in Ukraine a “violation of the world order.”

According to a report in The Cradle earlier this month, the Israeli choice is likely to lead to the loss of its privileged relations with Russia, the consequences of which it will ultimately bear in Syria, Iran, and the entire West Asian region.

South Ossetia,

53.000 Inhabitants, 3,900 square kilometres :) Thats a small town. Even the german Bundeswehr could take this....

Crimea

Crimea is a very small area too.

Syria.

Also not a good example in my opinion. Lets see how "Ukraine works out" for them.

You know, I wouldn't trust the authenticity of 90% of the short video clips and images that are circulated right now. Some are from computer games, many are old clips from other wars/battles, and some are just completely made up. Then we have various 'celebreties' posing with rifles, wooden rifles, and 'sad' images from old movies. The flood of false information is just unbelievable. The fog of war is nothing like we've ever seen.

Day 5 update from Russ Bentley; interviewed (along with a german woman named Alina Lipp) by Regis Tremblay - an American ex-pat living Crimea:

There’s a rather funny exchange regarding a question about NATO countries delivering arms and supplies to the Ukrainian army and since the Russian military controls the airspace and therefore airports too the response was something like - yes, good, let them because Russian military could use them!

On which I had been thinking on - how do they plan to send these armaments? Sounds like the typical Western sabre rattling hubris with which they have no clue about the logistics involved - but it gets the people all riled up. Plus with all the mandates and lockdowns lifted hear come the riots again…

Anyway, lots of intriguing info on the current situation in this video from people with an ear on the ground…

And with all that Ukraine is a failed state. More than 30 years and nothing but constant progression toward failure. Now that says everything about the people who were/are running the show there.

Currently the head is a popular comedian. I say this to point out how unprofessional the whole state structure is, starting with the gangster style free running oligarchs. At one time the former president of Georgia was running the Ukraine's Odessa Oblast !!!! There are other foreigners in important gov. positions. That shows the complete weakness and instability of the Ukrainian State. INSANE.

Is there much difference between a comedian and a drama teacher? unfortunately this is also a weakness in the Canadian state.

Also not a good example in my opinion. Lets see how "Ukraine works out" for them.

The operation in South Ossetia was connected with the defense of this state from the Nazi regime of Saakashvili, who is now imprisoned in the state that was the president. Russia did not capture South Ossetia with a population of 53k, but defended it and moreover successfully.

"Crimea is a very small area too." Really? You are on a par with such a connoisseur of geography as Liz Truss. Crimea is a strategic foothold in the Black Sea. Due to the fact that Crimea became part of the Russian Federation, the Russian Federation is blocking the NATO fleet in the Mediterranean Sea.

As for Syria. When the Russian Armed Forces entered the war for Syria, the Assad administration controlled 10% of the territory, and now 85-90. There are US forces that are stealing Syrian oil, but this will soon come to an end.

Are you generally sure that you are on the side of truth and light?

This comes up regularly and seems to be answered every time in the same manner. I dont see what should prevent third states to deliver military material over the western countries bordering Ukraine? Ever though of supply tunnels over the borders? Poland comes to mind here. They seem to enjoy playing with fire.
