And So It Begins… The Great Unravelling
The “Collective West” led by the chief imperialist power, the United States, is careening and buckling, the wayward collapse evident with each passing day.
For what it’s worth, the transatlantic alliance of the U.S. and its European allies – embodied by the NATO military bloc – had a fairly good chronological run. The imperialist clique managed to hold together for nearly eight decades.
But now that ship is running aground on the rocks of a proxy war in Ukraine against Russia. Signs of collapse and disintegration are coming fast and thick. The military defeat in Ukraine by the NATO powers after a $100 billion investment in weapons is foremost among the casualty list – together with up to 500,000 dead Ukrainian soldiers. What a hideous fiasco the NATO-sponsored campaign against Russia has turned out to be.
A bloodbath in Europe akin to the worst among history’s many imperialist slaughters. The U.S.-led military alliance of 30 nations has spectacularly forfeited any pretense of being a “security organization”. The gnashing of teeth has only just begun.
The farcical shame over NATO’s retreat two years ago from Afghanistan in August 2021 – after 20 years of failed military occupation – is but a prelude to the horrendous debacle unfolding over Ukraine.
Three-Way?
“Intents have been overtaken by events.” — Jacob Dreizin
You have to wonder what took Bobby Kennedy, Jr. so long to recognize that the Democratic Party was a home that he had long ago been turned out of, like a dog that has peed on the carpet too many times. At the end of last week, Mr. Kennedy intimated that he might run for president on an independent line. If he manages to get that line on the state ballots — and you can easily imagine New York and California trying to thwart him — it will change all the current calculations about the 2024 election.
As of right now, the Party of Chaos is living up to its name. They continue to present an obviously false and ridiculous consensus among themselves that “Joe Biden” is running for reelection. In fact, “the Big Guy” is about to get run through a wringer of the most abject public disgrace as his already-well-known crimes of bribery and treason get conscientiously laid out for all to see with cold and implacable decorum. Even the mind-fucked spawn of the Ivy League, toiling away on their CIA-owned newspapers and cable news networks, might find themselves forced to spin their narrative in a new direction.
Should Russia respect the territorial integrity of Ukraine?
Sergey Marzhetsky
"We have no problems with the territorial integrity of Ukraine, it was destroyed by those who carried out and supported the coup, whose leaders declared war against their own people and began to bomb their own people." — Sergey Marzhetsky
A few days ago was the anniversary of the referendums on the issue of joining the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions to Russia. Since 2014, our country has expanded into six new subjects of the Federation, and very high-ranking sovereigns are teasing the possibility of several more new regions of the former Independence joining the Russian Federation. The question arises, what will happen to the rest then?
Territorial integrity VS Self-determination — Let us recall that Crimea and Sevastopol in 2014, and Donbass and the Azov region in 2022, became self-determined, taking advantage of the corresponding right provided for in the UN Charter, which states that “any nation can independently resolve issues of its state structure, choose the path of economic, cultural and social development, determine your political status".
However, in the same fundamental document, the principle of territorial integrity of states is also provided for, giving the right to sovereign countries to protect their borders and the entire territory within them from another state, and the forced imposition of a border change is declared an act of aggression.
Why there were two mutually exclusive norms in the UN Charter at the same time is not surprising.
International Public Notice: Sloppy Language Kills
"Now we and all the still-occupied (since WWII) countries of Western Europe and the former British Commonwealth are being threatened by the same corporations in the form of the WEF -- a Municipal Corporation styling itself as "the World Economic Forum" and the UN CORP another Municipal Corporation styling itself as "the United Nations Corporation"."
For the first four years --- nearly five --- of our country's political existence, the Federation of States handled all external international and global business. Then, in 1781, but still during The War of Independence, the Continental Congress delegated the responsibility of commercial business management to the Confederation. The Federation of States was left in control of International Trade and the new Confederation doing business as "the States of America" took over commercial (incorporated) business affairs. Here is the junction where sloppy language becomes a big problem.
The Federation is made up of the member States -- the physically defined States of the Union we always think of. The Confederation was made up of member "States of States" which are businesses under contract to the States to provide government services. Over time, people began calling these "States of States" ---like the State of Maine--- first "Confederate States" and finally, just plain "States". This sloppiness blurred the line between the actual physically defined States and the associated States-of-State because people were referring to both using the same word: "State". This leads to profound misunderstandings. We can naturally mistake what kind of "State" we are referring to in documents and conversations, if we start referring to the State of California (one of the Confederate States) as "California" (one of the Federation States).
In our research we discovered that this lapse of language occurred extensively in the years leading up to the Civil War, so much so that it was difficult to distinguish the context of numerous documents. Initially, we thought that the Federation required State Electors to be "white landowners above the age of 21" -- but in fact, it was the Confederation that had this requirement.
Covid-19: How the Greatest Crime in History Unfolded
Before he was demonised and lied about for telling the truth about covid-19, The Ecologist said of Vernon Coleman: ‘No thinking person can ignore him.’
The deliberately designed fake pandemic began in earnest in the middle of February 2020. A mathematical modeller called Ferguson, working at Imperial College in London, scared the living daylights out of millions by predicting that 600,000 people might die in the UK alone. There was talk of millions being taken ill in Britain and of hospitals all over the world being overwhelmed by sick patients.
The media led the panic, as they usually do, and within days people were cancelling holidays and panic buying loo rolls, soap and loaves of bread. The British always buy loo rolls, soap and loaves of bread at times of crisis. Curiously, the people who were buying the most loo rolls didn’t seem to be buying any food though you would have thought that without any of the latter there wouldn’t have been much need for the former.
Two-Punch - Kunstler
“The statement that “Joe Biden wasn’t involved in Hunter Biden’s business,” is absurd in its face. Joe Biden was Hunter Biden’s business.” —Margot Cleveland
Understand: no amount of political blustering will bring this gaslit nation into daylight when there is no more money and no more credit and no feasible way to feed the blob that ate our government. The equation is simple. Our country can’t handle normal interest rates; and the value of the dollar can’t withstand more ultra-low interest rates. Someone, please, ask Congress to stop screwing that pooch over there!
Oh, and that “can” we’ve been kicking down the road turns out to be a rusty old 50-gallon drum. Somebody has stuffed America into it and is fixing to drop us overboard beyond the continental shelf off the Jersey Shore. Can that be stopped, too?
The Deadly Delusions of NATO and the Atlantic Council
Kurt Nimmo
Psychopaths invariably undermine their own projects.
The following quote is from an Atlantic Council “issue brief” on Ukraine, titled, “Providing long-term security for Ukraine: NATO membership and other security options,” published on May 23, 2023.
The document was authored by Hans Binnendijk and Franklin D. Kramer. Binnendijk, according to the Atlantic Council webpage, is “a distinguished fellow” at the Atlantic Council’s Scowcroft Center for Strategy and Security, while Kramer is also a “distinguished fellow” and board director of the Atlantic Council. Kramer spent time at the Pentagon and his focus, in part, is on NATO and Russia. The authors argue,
“There is a strong case for Ukrainian membership in NATO. The most obvious argument is that deterrence based on assurances, partnerships, threat of sanctions, and military assistance has failed Ukraine twice. For the long-term security of Europe, deterrence cannot be allowed to fail again. This is especially true with regard to a country that has sacrificed so much for its freedom.”
Kharkov and Mobilization
Jacques Baud
[October 1, 2022] The recapture of the Kharkiv region at the beginning of September appears to be a success for Ukrainian forces. Our media exulted and relayed Ukrainian propaganda to give us a picture that was not entirely accurate. A closer look at the operations might have prompted Ukraine to be more cautious.
From a military point of view, this operation is a tactical victory for the Ukrainians and an operational/strategic victory for the Russian coalition.
On the Ukrainian side, Kyiv was under pressure to achieve some success on the battlefield. Volodymyr Zelensky was afraid of fatigue from the West and that its support would stop. This is why the Americans and the British pressed him to carry out offensives in the Kherson sector. These offensives, undertaken in a disorganized manner, with disproportionate casualties, and without success, created tensions between Zelensky and his military staff.
The Special Military Operation: Drive neo-Nazism into the ground
Dmitry Medvedev
Deputy Chairman of the Russian Security Council
Victory will be achieved. We all want it to be as soon as possible. And that day will come. We will return to our territories and reliably protect our people who suffered during the years of genocide and shelling. And what's next?
Further negotiations will take place, which, I am sure, will become difficult and nervous. First of all, because the formal participants in the negotiations on the part of our opponent are one, and the actual leaders are completely different. And decisions for the Kyiv regime will be made, of course, not by some Zelensky or his clique, if he is still alive. The decision will be made overseas by those in whose hands arms supplies to Kyiv and the allocation of money to maintain the remains of the Ukrainian economy. The motives of our country's main enemies are obvious: to weaken Russia as much as possible, to bleed us for a long time. Therefore, they are not interested in ending the conflict. But sooner or later, according to historical laws, they will do it. And then there will be some kind of agreement. Naturally, without fundamental agreements on real borders or on a new Helsinki Pact ensuring security in Europe. Just some kind of agreement.
Slouching Towards Beelzebub
“Using the #FauciLiedPeopleDied trend is a great way to show your friends you’re a conspiracy theorist.” –Dr Anthony Fauci
So, here’s what you might have learned over the weekend if you ventured into the thickets of alt news: in April and May of 2021, the president (“Joe Biden”), the whole White House Covid Response Team (Andy Slavitt & Co), and everyone in the WH communications office, the US Surgeon General (Vivek Murthy), senior officials of the CDC including director Rochelle Walensky, Francis Collins, head of NIH, and Dr. Anthony Fauci of NIAID were all freaking out, holding crisis meetings, and sending blizzards of emails among each other after being informed by a Pfizer safety report that the miraculous new mRNA Covid vaccines produced significant cases of myocarditis and blood-clotting abnormalities.
