"In the latest legal opinion about the “Special De-Nazification Operation”, this report notes, Director Heinz Dieterich of the Centre for Transition Sciences (CTS) at the Autonomous Metropolitan University in Mexico City, and coordinator at the World Advanced Research Project (WARP), stated: “President Putin’s special military operation to defend the people of Donbass from an imminent general offensive by the neo-Nazi regime in Kiev not only is it fully justified in international law by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations, and it is fully consistent with the military praxis and doctrine of the legitimate self-defence of States in the face of an imminent threat emanating from a neighbouring state or enemy forces”—a factual legal finding followed with it being reported: “Moscow and Kiev have found certain things that could be agreed on during the ceasefire talks hosted by Belarus and will return for consultations before the next round, both delegations told reporters after the talks ended on Monday”—saw this report quickly joined by Russian UN Ambassador Vasily Nebenzia declaring to the United Nations General Assembly: “Occupation of Ukraine is not part of our plans…The purpose of this special operation is to protect people, who have been subjected to abuse and genocide by the Kiev regime for the past eight years…This is why it’s necessary to demilitarize and de-nazify Ukraine”—and saw this declaration swiftly followed by the horrifying revelation that Ukrainian Nazi forces gunned down in cold blood Jewish-Israeli citizen Roman Brodsky as he tried to flee the war zone."

In the video they mention another reporter who's been working in Ukraine for some time. Again, because this did not start in February, or even in the past year. Apparently Ukraine forces bombed a couple schools in the region at some point, yet never heard anyone crying about Ukraine until now...

Not saying war is ever good, it's not. Just stop with the fucking virtue signaling.

So basically, what we should all be rooting for is this Azov division to lose badly, or better yet, not be able to fight at all due to a quick peace agreement, and for Ukraine to root them out. The US cannot use this to justify attacks on Americans if this Nazi group in Ukraine ends up being a non-factor.

NuttBoxer says

Basically this is Afghanistan 2.0,

You mean 3.0, this is more of a repeat of 1.0, where we were meddling in Afghanistan when Putin was fighting them.
Which gave rise to 2.0. After this we'll be in Ukraine fighting the warlords we put in place now.

I'm sure I've lost count. Unfortunately though, if you watch the video, the analysis, which sounds dead on to me, is they'll use this as an excuse to attack anyone advocating for freedom here at home.

Would be a great time to formally apply for NATO membership if you are Finland, Sweden, and possibly some other countries.

Is Putin the New Coronavirus?

Mar 7 - 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.

Even before politicians began declaring the end of the pandemic, polls showed that rising prices were the people’s top concern - particularly the increase in gas prices. Since Russia is one of the world’s leading energy producers, sanctions imposed on Russia, as well as Germany’s decision (made under pressure from the US) to shut down the Nord Stream 2 pipeline, provide a convenient excuse for rising gas prices. This is the case even though the US, citing the “instability” in world energy markets created by the Russian-Ukraine conflict, has yet to officially ban imports of Russian oil.

The Federal Reserve has been planning several interest rate increases this year, even though some fear that rate increases could decrease growth and increase unemployment. The Russian crisis allows the Fed to either postpone rate increases or blame Russia for any unemployment that accompanies the rate increases. Either way, the Fed can use the crisis to deflect attention away from its responsibility for our economic problems. As of now, it appears the Fed will go through with at least a modest rate increase this month, but because of the Ukraine crisis, the increase will be smaller than previously expected.

The Ukraine crisis also provides an excuse for Congress to do what Congress does best: increase federal spending. President Biden has requested Congress provide an additional $10 billion in emergency military aid to Ukraine. Congress will likely quickly approve the President’s request. This will not likely be the last time Congress rushes billions of “emergency” money to Ukraine.

It is also certain that lobbyists for the military-industrial-complex are already “explaining” to a very receptive Capitol Hill audience why the Ukraine crisis justifies increasing the military budget to “counter the threats” from Russia, China, and whoever else can serve as a convenient boogeyman. It is unlikely there will be much resistance in Congress to a further increase, even though the US already spends more than the combined defense budgets of the next nine biggest spending countries.

Over the past two years, many leading Internet companies did the government’s bidding by “de-platforming” anyone who expressed skepticism of vaccines or promoted alternative treatments — even when they presented evidence to support their claims. These companies are once again helping the government by de-platforming those who question, or are suspected of questioning, the official narrative regarding Ukraine. Yet these companies’ concerns with “fake news” have not led them to stop people from sharing widely debunked stories supporting the US-backed Ukrainian government.

The lockdown and mandates did more harm than the coronavirus itself. They were based on lies promoted by the government and its allies in the “private” sector. Yet too many Americans refuse to even question the US government’s claims regarding the Ukraine crisis or question whether Russia is really responsible for our economic problems as opposed to a spendthrift Congress, successive spendthrift Presidents, and an out-of-control Federal Reserve. The only way to stop authoritarians from using crises like these to grow their power is to make enough people understand a simple truth: authoritarian politicians will always lie to the people to protect and increase their own power.

https://cjhopkins.substack.com/p/revenge-of-the-putin-nazis?s=r&source=patrick.net

Vladimir Putin, leader of the Putin-Nazis and official “Evil Dictator of the Day,” has launched a Kamikazi attack on the United Forces of Goodness (and Freedom) to provoke us into losing our temper and waging a global thermonuclear war that will wipe out the entire human species and most other forms of life on earth!

I’m referring, of course, to Putin’s inexplicable and totally unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, a totally peaceful, Nazi-free country which was just sitting there minding its non-Nazi business, singing Kumbaya, and so on, and not in any way collaborating with or being cynically used by GloboCap to menace and eventually destabilize Russia so that the GloboCap boys can get back in there and resume the Caligulan orgy of “privatization” they enjoyed throughout the 1990’s.

No, clearly, Putin has just lost his mind, and has no strategic objective whatsoever (other than the total extermination of humanity), and is just running around the Kremlin shouting “DROP THE BOMBS! EXTERMINATE THE BRUTES!” all crazy-eyed and with his face painted green like Colonel Kurtz in Apocalypse Now … because what other explanation is there?

Or … OK, sure, there are other explanations, but they’re all just “Russian disinformation” and “Putin-Nazi propaganda” disseminated by “Putin-apologizing, Trump-loving, discord-sowing racists,” “transphobic, anti-vax conspiracy theorists,” “Covid-denying domestic extremists,” and other traitorous blasphemers and heretics, who are being paid by Putin to infect us with doubt, historical knowledge, and critical thinking, because they hate us for our freedom … or whatever. ...

Think about the last 30 years. Seriously, just as an exercise, imagine GloboCap as an occupying army and the entire world as the territory it is occupying. Imagine GloboCap establishing control, targeting and neutralizing a variety of insurgencies … any insurgency, regardless of its nature, any and all resistance to its occupation, or lack of support for its “government and policies.” It does not matter who the insurgents are … diehard communists, Islamic fundamentalists, nationalists, populists … it makes no difference. The occupation couldn’t care less what they believe in or why they’re resisting. The objective of the op is to control the territory and get the populace on board with the new “reality.”

Welcome to the new reality … a “reality” in which “history has stopped [and] nothing exists except an endless present in which the Party is always right.” Yes, I know you are sick of me quoting Orwell, but, given the circumstances, I cannot help it. Just reflect on how seamlessly GloboCap segued from the Apocalyptic Pandemic narrative back to the Putin-Nazi narrative, which had seamlessly replaced the War on Terror narrative in the Summer of 2016, and how instantly the New Normals switched from hating “the Unvaccinated” to hating the Russians, and then scold me again for quoting Orwell. ...

What is happening in Ukraine is, Russia is not playing ball. For some reason, it does not want to be destabilized, and restructured, and privatized by GloboCap. It is acting like a sovereign nation state … which it is, and isn’t, which paradoxical fact GloboCap is trying to impress on Russia, just as countries throughout the global-capitalist empire impressed it on us for the past two years, as Trudeau impressed it on those protesters in Ottawa when he cancelled their rights and went full-fascist.

What is happening is, Russia is rebelling against GloboCap, and, unlike the other rebellious parties that GloboCap has been dealing with recently, Russia has thermonuclear weapons.

I’m not trying to tell you who to root for. Root for GloboCap if you want. I’m just urging you, before you fly over to “Kyiv” and join the fight against the Putin-Nazis, or make a jackass of yourself on the Internet shrieking for nuclear Armageddon, or fire-bomb your local Russian restaurant, or beat the crap out of some Russian-looking person, to maybe take a moment or two and try to understand what is actually going on, and who the major players actually are, and where GloboCap’s efforts to “clear and hold” the entire planet are inexorably taking us.

Patrick says

If that's truly the case, I expect the Russian central bank to forgo all plans of issuing a digital currency. This isn't rebellion against the globalists, because Russia is definitely on that team. It's a struggle that's been going on since WWII, Eastern globalists vs Western globalists. And while they might care who gets to call the shots, and who has to play Vice President, for the rest of us, it doesn't fucking matter. Because if they end up being the only two sides, we're all fucked.

I have some hope that Russia will use gold as currency once again.

Maybe it's a vain hope, but it's a nice thought, because it would show the citizens of all other countries that it is practical.

Your average cashier at Walmart wouldn't know a piece of gold from a piece of Tungsten.

Incidents of personal robbery have plummeted since people started carrying little plastic cards. Obama's sons would love for people to start carrying around thousands and thousands of dollars worth of gold.

Nope, were not gonna go back to a system where an actual percent of the populous is physically moving and protecting bits of metal moving around a city.

https://www.eugyppius.com/p/ukraine-and-the-global-american-empire?s=r&source=patrick.net

Since 2014, the Ukraine has been experiencing a quiet civil war, between the Ukrainian majority in the west, and a Russian minority concentrated in the east. The ethnic Ukrainian side in this conflict has been co-opted by the supranational global imperial monolith. This is the cadre of western elites that determines political, medical and cultural orthodoxy across the world. They control not only all major political parties in most western countries, but also global international consortia from the United Nations to the World Economic Forum to the European Union to the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation. Their goal is to further squeeze Russia by turning Ukraine – including the Russian-speaking eastern regions – into another political constituent of American globalism.

To the Russians – many Russians – this is unacceptable. After the Soviet Union collapsed, the globalists descended upon Russia to rape and pillage. In the years after 2000, NATO expansion was used to hem in Russia along the Baltic. These were hard years, but Russia finally reasserted its sovereignty. Since then, the western globalists have considered unaligned Russia to be their enemy, and they have adopted Ukraine as a convenient proxy against her. Ukraine is useful for this purpose, because it has considerable strategic significance, whether as a gateway to Russia through the open Ukrainian plains, or as a staging ground for American missiles.

The same western globalists who hate Russia, also count us as their enemies, and my sincere advice is to take them seriously in this. They have a kind of myopia for internal political dissidents; we are the unaligned domestic element, Russia is the unaligned international element, and so when Donald Trump is elected to the presidency, this must be, for them, the result of Russian interference. ...

The system-globalists don’t recognise the legitimacy of Russian strategic interests, or the legitimacy of anybody’s strategic interests. Globalists do not have security concerns in that way. Many of them even believe their own hollow rhetoric, that they are spreading freedom and democracy, even after these last two years of experimentation in forced vaccination and intermittent mass house arrest. Even if they don’t believe all of that about democracy, they nevertheless imagine that they are missionaries of light and goodness to all peoples everywhere, and that human potential will only be fully realised, when every last Russian is on Facebook and subscribed to Amazon Prime.

Load up on your war propaganda, Russian or Ukrainian, your choice. Cuz they're all fucking liars, and none of them deserve our sympathy or support.

Prayers for the Russian and Ukrainian people. Death for the Russian and Ukrainian governments.

The West thinks sanctions are hurting Putin.

They have it backwards: His power inside Russia is surging.

A thread on what analysts are getting so wrong.

Objectively, Putin's poll numbers have improved since the lead-up to and onset of the war.

This was predictable – a "rally 'round the flag" effect is common for wartime president.

In less than 2 weeks, his approval rating spiked 10 points – from 61% to 71%.



Many in the West are predicting that this effect will be short lived.

Analysts think that Russians will sour on Putin if the economic situation in the country continues to worsen.

But there's a gaping hole in their theory: Russians don't think the war was Putin's fault.

This is difficult for people in the West to understand.

Here, we see the invasion of Ukraine as a war of choice.

In Russia, the average citizen sees the conflict as a war of necessity – one forced onto Russia by NATO and Ukraine.

This was confirmed before the war in research by the Levada Center, a non-governmental polling firm widely trusted in the West.

More than 66% of Russians blamed the conflict on America, NATO, or Ukraine.

Only 4% said the conflict was Russia's fault.


Because Russians do not believe Putin was responsible for the war, they naturally do not blame him for sanctions.

Citizens of the United States did not blame FDR for economic hardships like rationing during WW2.

Russians have a similar perspective on wartime hardships today.

If anything, the perceived cruelty of the current sanctions is making the West more of a villain in Russia.

Some Russians I know who had favorable opinions of the West now feel like they are personally under attack.

They resent being the targets of economic warfare.

One of the most egregious examples is the attempt to block international calls into Russia.

Today, many Russians overseas are having trouble reaching their families at home.

This makes them angry – but not at Putin. It makes them hate the West.

BREAKING: A potential cyber attack is blocking some international calls to Russia.

I just confirmed this myself.

When I dialed a Russian number, a message played calling Russia a fascist state for invading Ukraine.

It said calls to Russia could go f*** themselves.

The Russians who are upset with Putin about sanctions are the ones who already opposed him.

They are a vocal, younger minority inside the country.

But the people attending anti-war marches are the same ones who previously were marching against corruption.

Putin's base sees the Western pullout from Russia as an opportunity to purge the country of foreign influence.

They like the idea of Western companies selling their stakes in state industries.

They like replacing Western brands with Russian and Chinese substitutes.

I'm not arguing that these replacements will be smooth.

They won't stop Russia's economy from heading for a deep recession.

But nationalist sentiments inside Russia right now are so strong, that's a price Russians are willing to pay.

The Kremlin is doing everything in its power to strengthen those sentiments.

It's why, within the last 2 days, it alleged that the U.S. was funding secret nuclear- and biological-weapons programs inside Ukraine.



In the West, these WMD claims were met with skepticism.

But in Russia, they were widely believed.

They reinforced the narrative that President Putin was forced to invade – because otherwise Ukraine might use WMDs in a war to retake Crimea or the Donbas.

The threat that Russia faces from Ukraine has been portrayed as the sequel to the threat from Nazi Germany – but this time, with WMDs.

And the crackdown on dissenting media voices inside Russia ensures that narrative remains unchallenged.

It's easy to laugh at "brainwashed Russians" and mock the country as the new North Korea.

For the sake of argument, let's assume that's true:

Should the U.S. be proud of a foreign policy that has created a "new North Korea" with 6,000 nukes?

If the goal of our policy towards Russia was to make it a closed, paranoid society – mission accomplished.

But we shouldn't pretend that, any day now, Russians will feel the sting of our economic warfare and turn on their President.

They're more likely to turn... on us.

Sounds like the globalists are gearing up for a chemical weapons false flag in Ukraine. Hopefully it's fake like the Iranian one, but not feeling super hopeful right now.

There are a few other things that the official directive specifies. We’re not supposed to mention the thirty bioresearch labs that the US maintains in Ukraine. We are not supposed to mention Ukrainian support for Hillary Clinton and the Clinton Foundation, its government’s efforts to undermine Donald Trump, or its connection with George Soros, Klaus Schwab’s “Great Reset,” or its lavish financial support of the Biden family and the families of other high-ranking Americans. All that is off-script, so, even though it is potentially clarifying, I won’t mention it.

https://spectatorworld.com/topic/realists-underestimate-vladimir-putin/?source=patrick.net

Realists are also being attacked now by their intellectual adversaries for blaming Washington policymakers for creating the conditions for the current war by expanding NATO to Russia’s border and proposing that Ukraine join the Western defense organization.

Such a move, argued realists, would be perceived by Putin — and rightly so — as posing a threat to core Russian national interests, not unlike the way Russian or Chinese deployment of military forces equipped with nuclear weapons in Mexico would be viewed in Washington.

In a thoughtful New York Times piece, columnist Ross Douthat reflects on these issues, quoting Mearsheimer’s 2016 warning that the “West is leading Ukraine down the primrose path, and the end result is that Ukraine is going to get wrecked.” ...

Realists perceived Putin to be protecting Russia’s legitimate national security interests in Ukraine and Georgia by using limited military power in the way the US itself has acted in the past.

Yep.

"Look, this rare pathogen was released. According to our intelligence, this was developed in the former Soviet Union, of which Russia is the successor state, so there's a clear chain of custody linking Putler to this release!"

No mention that the US seized Soviet-era bioweapon research and has, unlike the nukes, been maintaining rather than destroying it for decades.

From where I sit, we appear to be on the threshold of yet another propaganda about-face.

The Ukraine “war” is increasingly looking like it was all about Russia having found a moment when the NATO-associated World Economic Foundation client states were distracted by other matters, and then seizing the opportunity to put a halt to the gradual assimilation of Ukraine into the NATO alliance. If one looks at the situation from a Russian geopolitical-realpolitik frame of reference, the gradual development of a NATO-aligned state along the Russian border, replete with US-sponsored “Biolabs” that were (at best) working with biothreat agents (toxins, pathogens) collected from the Ukrainian region (and heavens knows where else), represented a legitimate threat to Russian national security. Were those “Biolabs” more than just sample collection stations? Russia certainly seem to think so. The USA acknowledges the existence of these “Biolabs” but denies that they were involved in bioweapon research. Personally, based on my professional experience, that one sticks in my craw. Russia asserts otherwise. He said, she said. These days, truth seems to merely be whatever and whichever state-controlled media that you are subjected to says it is. ...

US politician Tulsi Gabbard (a WEF “young leader” trainee whose WEF webpage was recently removed) raised concerns on Twitter regarding the “Biolabs” issue and was immediately attacked by Mitt Romney (Senator, Utah, Uniparty).

When the WEF deletes her page, that gives her more credibility with me.

What matters most, from a COVID-19 perspective, is that (functionally speaking) the Executive branch (apparently with congressional consent) transferred 13.6 Billion US Dollars (well, that would certainly buy a lot of fertilizer and diesel for US Farmers!) to support what appears to me to be a lost cause in Ukraine. Back to local DC Kabuki, in their infinite wisdom the administration and their congressional Uniparty allies have boxed themselves in with this little trick, as apparently this was some sort of reappropriation and transfer of of COVID-19 funds consequent to the most recent propaganda pivot from COVID-19 to the crisis in Ukraine. But the news cycle moves faster than a DC bureaucrat can say “congressional earmark”, and with the headspinning pivot back to suddenly needing to promote nonstop fearporn, there is a pressing need to fill the COVID-19/Pandemic cookie jar again.

The people that run Ukraine, under the US direction of course, are a bunch of thugs and criminals. Yeah, they want to join NATO because if Russia gets to them, they're going to be tried, and executed. They are the ones that insist that every Ukrainian fight to the death. It's a criminal thug nation, quite a bit worse than our criminal thug nation.

I think she's controlled opposition, and I don't say this with any happiness at all.

I bet she's being groomed for the presidency, and when she's there, will be as awful as Hillary Clinton - because really, there's no way to be worse. That she was part of the WEF is a huge problem, and just because the WEF is trying to hide that fact now, makes me think that the WEF is trying to distance HER from IT, not IT from HER.

They more they advertise that she's part of the WEF, the more damage it does to her. They are instead trying to hide the fact, since its become known that the WEF is part of the Deep State (which of course, is a conspiracy theory and doesn't exist - Wikipedia told me so!)

That's the whole point of the NGO takeover of governments. Place people in power that are loyal to the WEF such that, when it is time to act, they will fulfill their clandestine role to overthrow their own government in favor of the WEF alternative.

Tulsi alliterates with Trojan Horse.

But there are some governments, who well totally onboard for the NWO agenda, want to maintain their sovereignty. Two of them are definitely China and Russia. So while there may be a struggle for how the Great Reset shapes out, don't for a minute be fooled into thinking they aren't all in cahoots.

It is and will always be us vs them.
