I. The Purge of the Liberal Media and Rumblings of Economic Nationalization
There have been multiple overviews of the situation in Ukraine from former government officials, former military officers and veteran Russia watchers over the last month. Most of them present a fairly accurate macro-picture of the situation and include the proper basics with which to form an accurate analysis of the current conflict.
hypocritical pathetical hypothetics...In an interview by Stan Grant — a dude who is becoming an apologist for the war criminal of the US Empire, and a senior fellow of ASPI, an organism sponsored by war sticks and bomb makers — Geoffrey Robertson pontificates about Putin being a war criminal… If we follow the reasoning, All the US presidents since the first one — April 30 1789, George Washington — should be declared “war criminals”, including Joe Biden, the Catholic abortionist. Making such assertions about Putin at this stage are stupid.
a lonely pregnant set up...As you can see in the picture above, the set up is not even credible... One pregnant woman on a stretcher — with impeccable red and black fabric reminiscent of the (not forgotten) Ukraine colours — is being carried away or towards a building that has been demolished by Russian bombs... Even our religious fun-bod Rod Dreher is very sceptical:
death to facebook!!!Meta has made a temporary change to its hate speech policy to allow Facebook and Instagram users in some countries to call for violence against Russian people and Russian soldiers, Meta spokesperson Andy Stone said in a statement via Twitter.
Using the Russian special operation in Ukraine as a justification for the move, Meta described racist speech against Russian-speaking people as "forms of political expression," vowing to continue to prevent "credible calls for violence against Russian civilians."
this little puppet went to market.....Zelensky (Zelenskyy) is a puppet of the West. He is trying to show he is his own little master but the string-pullers are too powerful. He came to power under a very different wood-stick than now:
too true for comfort...The 2016 'Ukraine on Fire’ documentary, which features filmmaker Oliver Stone and chronicles the tumultuous modern history of the country, has been removed by YouTube for being in violation of its guidelines. The film’s director, Ukrainian filmmaker Igor Lopatonok claims that YouTube representatives informed him that the documentary was taken down for featuring “violent or graphic content,” but did not explain why it had never run into any problems before, despite being hosted on the platform for the past six years. Lopatonok has taken to Twitter to urge people who enjoyed the film to download it and “post it everywhere.”
houston, we have a problem...A secret treaty is a treaty (international agreement) in which the contracting state parties have agreed to conceal the treaty's existence or substance from other states and the public. Such a commitment to keep the agreement secret may be contained in the instrument itself or in a separate agreement.
On this site we have exposed quite a few of these secret pacts between nations.
According to one compilation of secret treaties published in 2004, there have been 593 secret treaties negotiated by 110 countries and independent political entities since the year 1521. Secret treaties were highly important in the balance-of-power diplomacy of 18th- and 19th-century Europe, but are rare today.
pushing the myth beyond the joke...In an election year pledges are made to be broken; promises are made to seduce, not convince. When the subject matter involves fictional submarines, even greater care should be taken. The prolonged, costly nightmare of Australia’s submarine policy took another turn on March 6. The Defence Minister Peter Dutton could barely contain his excitement with the announcement that the Morrison government would soon be unveiling which nuclear-powered submarines it would acquire. “We will have an announcement within the next couple of months about which boat we are going with, what we can do in the interim.”
scomo needs new glasses...“Destiny guides our fortunes more favorably than we could have expected. Look there, Sancho Frydenberg and Poato Dutton, my friends, and see those thirty or so wild giants, with whom I intend to do battle and kill each and all of them, so with their stolen booty we can begin to enrich ourselves. This is nobel, righteous warfare, for it is wonderfully useful to God to have such an evil race wiped from the face of the earth.”
"What giants?" Asked Poato Dutton.
"The ones you can see over there," answered his master, "with the huge arms, some of which are very nearly two leagues long.”
serenity and good constitution.....On his visit to Taipei, Mike Pompeo, advocated on 28 February 2022 that the US government should “immediately take necessary and long-overdue steps to do the right and obvious thing, that is to offer the Republic of China America’s diplomatic recognition as a free and sovereign country.” . The situation in Russia and Ukraine has spooked the world. The stability of Sino-US relations, the two largest powers and economies, is more important than ever for the cause of world peace. One issue that can make things very much worse is provocative action relating to Taiwan.
meanwhile in space away from the planets of fools...
FREE JULIAN ASSANGE NOW.....
dancing with NATO...Zelenskyy is the new darling of the Western media because he had been "dancing with the stars" in front of a appreciative audience (he won the contest), while "dancing with NATO" behind their backs to become Statesman-like. And here the crunch of this story which has pained Putin so much. Did Vladimir have any choice but become a tyrant which he is not?
Nothing can excuse Russia’s invasion of Ukraine and its bombing of residential suburbs and social infrastructure. It is nothing short of a war crime. But how did it come to this? An article by Blake Fleetwood a former staff reporter on The New York Times argues that actions by the West (especially the USA) helped create the monster we now have. See:
peace and prosperity on earth...President Biden’s “maskless” State of the Union signifies the near-end of the COVID tyranny we have lived under for the past two years. Fortunately for Congress, the President, and the Federal Reserve, the Ukraine-Russia conflict is replacing COVID as a ready-made excuse for their failures and a justification for expanding their power.
the swastika is not blue on a yellow background...And they’re back! It’s like one of those 1960s Hammer Film Productions horror-movie series with Peter Cushing and Christopher Lee … Return of the Putin-Nazis! Revenge of the Putin-Nazis! Return of the Revenge of the Bride of the Putin-Nazis! And this time they are not horsing around with stealing elections from Hillary Clinton with anti-masturbation Facebook ads. They are going straight for “Democracy’s” jugular!
going to the lifeboats...When is this government going to learn that you don’t put defence facilities in areas with major populations (“Three east coast sites on nuclear subs shortlist”, March 7)? Newcastle, Port Kembla and Brisbane are not suitable. The Australian coastline has plenty of suitable sites away from built-up areas: Jervis Bay for instance. This government is playing election politics again. Terry Cook, Ermington
