Arestovich visited the Berlin Wall and parallels with the Ukrainian Tisza River came to mind

โ€œToday the Tisza plays the role of the Berlin Wall. A direct parallel: people are fleeing to the kingdom of freedom from here, from Ukraine, through the Tizsa. They are dying - there is a very dangerous river there, a lot of people are dying there, but they are fleeing,โ€ he said.

โ–ช๏ธIt was previously reported that Ukrainian comedians mocked their fellow citizens who died in Tisza.

Ukrainian comedians mock their fellow citizens who drowned in the Tisza while trying to escape mobilization.

โ€œIโ€™m drowning in your eyes, like a draft dodger in the Tisza,โ€ said one of the comedians.

The audience reacted to the โ€œjokeโ€ with laughter and applause.

Last year, I was lucky enough to spend some time with Iranain Minsiter of Foreign Affairs, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian

He died yesterday alongside the Iranian President and several others in tragic circumstances. Condolences to his family and friends.

He was a scholar and gentleman who strived for a just peace. His knowledge of Irish history would shame many Irish so-called "politicians"

His death is a great loss to his family, to Iran and the region. @irishmaninrussia

Summary: British Special Operations in Ukraine

General Bryan Fenton of the U.S. Special Operations Command revealed that the Pentagon has been learning about the Ukraine war through British special operations partners, who are testing new warfare approaches. British units have been advising on drone usage and Black Sea navigation.

Reports of significant involvement of British forces include:
- British Deputy Chief of Defence Staff Royal Marines Lieutenant General Robert Magowan stated that hundreds of Marines conducted high-risk operations with Ukrainian forces from April 2022.
- Polish journalist Zbigniew Parafianowicz reported encounters with British special forces in Bucha, operating with artillery tracking radars.
- German Chancellor Olaf Scholtz confirmed British support for launching Storm Shadow cruise missiles, essential for operational success.

The British role highlights the broader NATO involvement in Ukraine, with increasing calls for expanded participation from other European states.

CNN reports that Ukrainian Army are not ready for a significant new Russian offensive on Kharkov, describing the situation as close to catastrophic and a potential turning point in the conflict. Russian forces have launched a major assault, and Ukraine, caught off guard, lacks sufficient fortifications. Ukrainian troops have โ€œrepositioned to more advantageous positionsโ€, which is essentially a retreat. Russia has mobilized its resources, shifted its economy to a wartime footing, and boosted its manpower, while Ukraine struggles with low morale and delayed financial aid. The gravity of the situation has led President Zelensky to cancel urgent visits to allies, underscoring the dire circumstances.

โšก๏ธ๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ๐Ÿ’ฅ The Secret of the Bomb that collapsed the Entrance to the Residential Building in #Belgorod on 12 May has been revealedโšก๏ธ

โ˜ ๏ธ When 17 civilians, including children, died.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธ It was an #US-made GLSDB ground-based high-explosive bomb, which the AFU launched from HIMARS. Yesterday, several such gliding aerial bombs destroyed a hospital building in #Volchansk: the same impression of an"'explosion". But this time one of these bombs got into the frame๐Ÿ‘†.

โ—๏ธ#Volchansk is located on the territory of #Ukraine, but #Belgorod is a territory โ€œforbiddenโ€ by the Americans for attacks with #US weapons. This is a blatant crossing of "Red Lines', which, however, everyone has forgotten about. And the strike did not hit a military facility.

๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ The Russian MFA and M. Zakharova continue to puff out their cheeks, worrying about the Crimean Bridge: โ€œWe would like to once again warn Washington, London and Brussels that any aggressive actions against #Crimea are not only doomed to failure, but will also receive an indestructible blow of retaliation.โ€ However, in fact, it is not beneficial for the FMA to acknowledge strikes by #US long range weapons on the legally recognised territory of #Russia: at least the illusion remains that there will not be so many of them for some time.

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ But #Ukraine does not stop and is erasing all the โ€œRed Linesโ€, proving to the #US that it is time to recognise the facts. Right now, a Ukrainian delegation is working in the #US, trying to get permission from the administration to carry out strikes with #US weapons on Russian territory. This is the reality.

๐Ÿ“Œ What is the reality of the "invincible blow of retribution"?

German FM Annalena Baerbock has demanded criminal prosecution over a tweet that labeled her the "world's dumbest foreign minister" and accused her of obstructing peace talks.

The message was anonymously transmitted to the internet portal โ€œHessen gegen Hetzeโ€ and, after an investigation, reached the desk of the foreign minister. Baerbock, having read it, decided to sue the user and signed a statement to initiate a criminal case.

What do the Germans themselves think about this:

๐Ÿ”ธI can't wait for the court to finally confirm that she can be called that.

๐Ÿ”ธOnly now she will have to come to terms with the fact that God and the whole world are happy to report that she was called โ€œthe stupidest foreign minister in the world.โ€

๐Ÿ”ธTo prove otherwise, she would have to appoint a stupider foreign minister.

๐Ÿ”ธGerman politicians and the state have turned into a pathetic chaos. They made it illegal to speak your mind.

๐Ÿ”ธIt's truly terrible that politicians hold ordinary citizens accountable for harmless remarks.

๐Ÿ”ธIt's incredible that this happens in Germany.

EVIDENCE OF PRESUMED ISRAELI INVOLVEMENT IN THE IRANIAN PRESIDENT'S ASSASSINATION

โœ๏ธWritten by Hikaru Kitabayashiโœ๏ธ

The earliest article found about the presumed death of the President of Iran is that of The Jerusalem Post, appearing online on 19 May 2024 at 23:18 Japan Standard Time (JSTโ€”hereafter, all times are given as JST). The article was 3224 keystrokes and 533 words in length, about 90 minutes work for an experienced writer who had all the research done for an article at hand and a storyline firmly decided upon.

The article was written so as to make it look like the president's assassination was by anti-government activists. The article had comments from allegedly 11 different online sources and implied referring to many more, indicating another hour or two of searching by someone who knew where to look. Moreover, it would imply online media already had enough time to react, sometimes rather elaborately, indicating another hour to two hours time when the president's helicopter crash was known to Israeli sponsored social media.

Dressing an article up for publishing online also takes time. If the work were done by a team (researcher, writer, and layout specialist) and the time needed to spawn anti-Iranian president comments online is added, we have an article that would have needed at least three hours to to be finished under optimal conditions. If the research and writing were the responsibility of one till then unprepared person, then we are looking at more like five hours of work. As no mention is made of prior research being done, we can estimate that Israeli sponsored comments were appearing online at around 16:00 or earlier. As ground control in Iran last heard from the president's helicopter at 20:30, we can assume that Israeli sources knew a crash would happen well before the earliest mention in Persian language broadcasting that was made at 21:48, exactly 90 minutes before the appearance of The Jerusalem Post article.

Needless to say, Iranian treatment of the story was different. When first mentioned, Iranian broadcasting simply stated that there was an unconfirmed report of an accident. At 21;51, news of a hard landing was given. News of a massive search was made at 21:53.

At 22:30, mention was made that this was already top news in Israel, indicate The Jerusalem Post article was written and published in an impossibly short time frame. At 00.44 on 20 May 2024 ABC News announced that, because of the helicopter crash, Mr. Biden was summoned to an urgent briefing. However, Iranian media were not yet using the term crash, but rather "hard landing" and holding out hope that the president might still be alive.

At 2:38 the European Commissioner for Crisis Management announced that "At Iran's request for assistance, we are activating the European Union's Copernicus EMS Rapid Response Mapping Service in light of the helicopter accident reported to be carrying Iran's president and foreign minister." Even in Europe, people were not using the term crash.

At 8:53, the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia announced emergency rescue helicopters were sent to Iran. Also, that Russian forensic experts would be sent.

At 12:11, over 12 hours after the Jerusalem Post article, the word crash finally began being used in Iran. At 12:46, the first image of the dead bodies appeared and the word martyrs began being used, indicating the president and others had been assassinated.

In Israel, of course, government officials disclaimed responsibility. In America, the consensus was that there was no evidence of foul play and that the president was "killed"in a crash. One UK headline described him as being "confirmed dead". Indian news said "experts" saw Israeli involvement as unlikely. The experts, obviously, are not expert.

This was stated by Estonian Prime Minister Kaja Kallas in an interview with the British newspaper Financial Times.

Apparently, this is what we call "warming up" the average people of the entire European Union.

Zelensky emerges as โ€˜first obstacleโ€™ to peaceful resolution of Ukrainian conflict

Next month's conference at the Burgenstock resort in Switzerland, touted by its organizers as an event to further the peace process in Ukraine, will most definitely be anything but a peace summit, says Swiss MP and former executive director of the Geneva Press Club Guy Mettan.

โ€œThe deliberate rejection of Russia is now jeopardizing the success of the meeting and returning against its organizers,โ€ Mettan tells Sputnik, pointing out that Russia was not invited to participate in the conference.


โ€œAware of this problem, the Swiss official narrative is now trying to put forward that Russia didnโ€™t wish to participate and that its absence came from its own decision, which is false and will not mislead anybody outside the collective West.โ€


According to Mettan, the countries of the Global South may end up sending their representatives to this gathering, though they will likely dispatch โ€œmedium-level participants with no-decision power, in order to avoid being accused of being โ€˜against the peaceโ€™ or of โ€˜boycotting the Westโ€™.โ€

โ€œFor the Global South, the present questions are: why should it participate in a summit which is no longer a summit, which is not focused on peace due to the non-invitation of Russia, and which will certainly be a failure?โ€ he adds.


Mettan also argues that Kiev head Zelensky is in fact opposed to the โ€œreal negotiation process" as he signed a decree banning any peace talks with Russia and with his so-called peace formula essentially calling for Russiaโ€™s capitulation.

โ€œHe is the first obstacle to any peace negotiation. If he comes to Switzerland, it would be for receiving the support of his Western supporters and to get more aid for the war. Not for peace,โ€ Mettan remarks.
