๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆ WEST WASHES HANDS CLEAN: The attack on Kursk is Zelenskyโ€™s idea & Western partners allegedly "completely unaware of the situation."

How convenient - when it goes tits up.

Ukraineโ€™s invasion of Russian territory caught Moscow by surprise. It also caught Western supporters - even those in Washington - by surprise. When it began on Tuesday, it looked like another display of noisy military bluster. By Thursday, it was clear that Kiev was striking back.

Obviously, what is happening will cause some Western leaders to feel queasy, since NATO equipment is now being used on Russian territory - and the Ukrainian Armed Forces are crossing another threshold.

If the Ukrainian authorities had asked for permission from their Western partners in advance, they would not have received it, so they just went ahead - The Sunday Times alleges.


What a blatant propaganda piece - Western partners pretty much announced Zelensky was free to use Western long-range weapons any way his fried brains deem fit. ๐Ÿง

โ—พThe dawn massacre in which the occupation targeted worshippers at the Al-Tabi'in Sharia School, which shelters around 6,000 displaced people in Gaza City, led to the martyrdom of more than 100 citizens and wounding dozens with serious injuries. It was not the first, but rather an extension of many massacres targeting shelters and tents for the displaced.

โ—พ Ukrainian PoW described the hopeless situation for thousands of Ukrainian conscripts and said that the orders of the Ukrainian commanders are comparable to genocide:

-As he said, his inglorious path in the AFU was like this: โ€˜We came here from Cherkasy region. We took a position and spent two days there. On the third day at night, we were woken up, 7 men, and told that we had to go and dig up and take positions. We had a five-minute battle, and we were offered to surrender. The same second, we immediately threw out the assault rifles. I think the command understood and knew how many people you had and at least approximately how many people we had. In my opinion, this is genocide,โ€™ said captured serviceman of the AFU 117th Separate Mechanised Brigade Aleksey Pashkin.

Zelensky said that today he discussed with the Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Syrsky the successful "displacement" of military operations into the territory of the Russian Federation

He did not provide details of the conversation.

Zelensky avoids directly commenting on the actions of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the Kursk region. Reuters noted that the Ukrainian authorities "apparently use a strategy of complete silence" regarding attempts to attack the Russian border area.

Reagan's 1984 joke on bombing Russia should have never been made, ex-CIA analysts say

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ธUS President Ronald Reagan's recorded comments to National Public Radio (NPR) engineers that he would order the bombing of Russia made 40 years ago this Sunday were never meant to be taken seriously but should have never been made at all, two former veteran CIA senior analysts told Sputnik.

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธโ€It was never meant to be anything but a joke: But politicians are better to be careful as anything they say is likely to be somewhat incoherent and will inevitably be misinterpreted no matter what the intention was," former CIA senior analyst and station chief Philip Giraldi, founder and chair of the Council for the National Interest, said.

๐ŸŽคGiraldi agreed with reports that Reagan had not realized the microphone was still recording his comments at the time, although they were never broadcast.

However, the old story had important lessons for political leaders today, Giraldi advised.

๐Ÿ—ฃ๏ธโ€I guess the lesson to be learned in the current context is that we would be a lot better off if our so-called leaders would just keep their mouths shut as anything they say is likely to be somewhat incoherent and will inevitably be misinterpreted no matter what the intention was," he said.

Private joke

Former senior CIA analyst Raymond McGovern, who personally briefed four US presidents โ€” including Reagan โ€” on the Soviet Union and Russia, is skeptical about Reagan having any intention for the story to circulate at all for any reason.

"Did he really mean it to go out live? I don't think so," he said.

A Ukrainian woman's child was taken away in Germany and given to a local childless family

She has been knocking on the doors of the consulate in Dusseldorf for 2 years. Ukrainian diplomats are so fed up with the unfortunate mother that they call the police when she tries to get an appointment.

The footage shows just such an episode.

US INTERESTS, UKRAINIAN ATTACKS ON GAS SUPPLIES, AND EUROPEAN ENSLAVEMENT

โœ๏ธ Written by Oscar Nanni of Oscar_news, a primarily Italian language channel โœ๏ธ

โœ๏ธ Lightly edited by Hikaru Kitabayashi โœ๏ธ

After the attack on the Nordstream1 and Nordstream2 pipelines, whose aim was to cancel the supply of low-cost Russian gas to Germany, which thus hindered the increase in industrial production in Western Europe, now we have moved on to the attack on Russian territories by Ukrainian mercenaries and troops, aimed at destroying the pumping and flow regulation station in the only remaining active pipeline in Sudzha, the one that still brings gas to Europe.

It is true, Western journalists have once again remained silent about the fact that stopping gas from Russia to Europe is only a tool, and the seizure of the Sudzha gas measurement and pumping station is a maneuver that only serves the United States to finally bend Europe to buy American gas that costs three to six times more than that supplied by Russia, gas that would be supplied only to the European vassals most obedient to the diktats of the Americans.

Is this really what Europe wants, to become a slave to the United States?

Now that the US public debt has exceeded 35 thousand trillion dollars and is no longer repayable, now that the Anglo-Saxon predatory capitalist system is at the end of its tether, with the economies of the BRICS nations increasingly gaining ground and now that the creation of American military bases near the oil wells everywhere in the world, to protect the organized thefts of crude oil that the United States daily perpetrates to the detriment of legitimate producing countries, now that all this is no longer sustainable, the United States is trying to destroy even the last pipeline that supplies Europe with Russian gas..

It is not possible that journalists under the orders of the United States remain silent about this but, unfortunately, they do.

The United States, which supports the genocide of the Palestinians together with the Israelis and the English who have always been accomplices in robbing the world of its resources, can no longer hide behind the excuse of protecting democracy.

The United States, Britain and Israel are a cancer to this planet and to all democratically elected governments of the globe. Cancer can sometimes be cured. At other times, it kills. Which will it be in this case?

More and more Ukrainians whose sons are about to turn 18 intend to go abroad

This was stated by MP Dmytruk, commenting on the mobilization and talk about sending 18-year-olds to the front.

"18-year-old Ukrainians are children. This is a category of citizens who should be doing something completely different. And today I hear from many: my son will soon be 18, and we are not even thinking about him staying in Ukraine, only going abroad,"
he says.
