Washington Post: Biden Scrambles To Avert Cracks In Pro-Ukraine Coalition​

The “central mission” of the Biden presidency is sending billions of dollars to Ukraine which is being used as a proxy by Western liberals to fight Russia and to foment regime change in Russia.

Washington Post:

“As these discussions show, Biden is now pushing hard to hold together what has become a central mission of his presidency: maintaining the global and domestic coalition supporting Ukraine. As the war heads into its first winter, probably a bitter and brutal one, some U.S. allies face economic headwinds fueled by the war, while at home some Republicans voice skepticism about the billions in aid going to Ukraine. …”

The momentum is on our side.

After flushing over $60 billion down the drain on this, the public is growing tired of sending shipment after shipment of weapons to Ukraine.

“Even as Biden scrambles to hold together his global coalition, cracks are showing in political support at home for the billions in aid the United States is sending Ukraine. Those fissures are likely to widen significantly if Republicans recapture the House on Nov. 8.
A Pew Research poll shows that the share of Americans who are extremely or very concerned about a Ukrainian defeat fell from 55 percent in May to 38 percent in September. Among Republicans and Republican-leaning independents, 32 percent say the United States is providing too much support for the war — up from 9 percent in March. …”

If Democrats hold Congress in the midterms, spending tens of billions of dollars fueling the war in Ukraine for “as long as it takes” will remain our official policy for the next two years.

So far, the White House has been able to maintain bipartisan support for several multibillion-dollar aid and weapons packages to Ukraine, but some Republicans aligned with former president Donald Trump have begun raising questions about why the United States is spending so much money on a distant war overseas. And a decision last week by a Saudi- and Russian-led coalition to slash oil production is likely to send gas prices climbing again, which could sour the public even further. …
Still, when asked how long the United States can be expected to pour billions into the war effort, Biden and his top aides frequently say: “As long as it takes.” …

Zelensky won’t agree to negotiate an end to the war until Putin is removed from power in Russia. The goal is regime change in Russia. Joe Biden is backing his puppet Zelensky on regime change.

“That’s a decision for the Ukrainians to make,” a senior State Department official said. “Our job now is to help them be in absolutely the best position militarily on the battlefield … for that day when they do choose to go to the diplomatic table.”
The Ukrainian president now says that only if Putin is removed from power would Ukraine consider coming back to the table. “We will negotiate with the new president,” Zelensky said in a video address. …”

Removing Joe Biden and the Democrats from power is the only thing that will end the war in Ukraine. It is the only thing that will force Ukraine to negotiate a ceasefire. Otherwise, this is going to continue until David Frum and Anne Applebaum get their way and Russia is destabilized to the point where Putin is toppled from power, which isn’t going to happen until nukes are literally flying.

Crimean residents React To Russia Attacking All Major Ukraine Cities​

In the last days, there has been wave after wave of explosions, not just in Kyiv, but all across Ukraine, from Lviv in the west to Kharkiv in the east and Odesa in the south( virtually every major Ukraine city).

This seems to be Russia's answer to the attack on the Crimean bridge which Russia has declared a terrorist attack by Ukrainian special services. This is a clear major escalation of the war.

In this report, I talk to residents of Crimea and see what their reaction is to Russia attacking all Major Ukrainian city's. We also ask how they feel about Russian control of Crimea and what they think about Ukraine's vows to regain control of Crimea.

Russian Missile & Drone Strikes Continue Across Ukraine

Update on Russian military operations in Ukraine for October 13, 2022

- UN General Assembly vote demonstrates continued support for Russia by India and China as well as many other nations across the developing and newly industrialized world;
- Russia continues missile and drone strikes across Ukraine;
- Ukraine’s plea for air defense systems is impractical and reflect desperation in Kiev;
- West is attempting to mix and match air defense systems to create an ad hoc integrated network;
- Many air defense components will take a year or longer to arrive in Ukraine;
- Many air defense components will be damaged or destroyed before the imagined integrated network is complete;
- A turning point is coming where the West will have to decide between escalating or abandoning its proxy war in Ukraine;

Has anyone seen legitimate documentation or heard speeches (w/ accurate translation) in which Putin himself has specifically threatened the use of nukes? All I've found are his comments that everything is on the table, or conversely that nothing is off the table, but not specifically threatening the use of nukes. I know the MSM is pushing their narrative, but for some reason I'm not convinced that anything they pitch is true. Anybody got the sauce? If not I'll remain skeptical of the ubiquitus and unending pablum from the appointed mouthpieces, aka gaslighting.

No.

That's the west's mantra (so when the west lights one up they can blame the false flag on Putin).

The 'sauce' is in reading Putin's speeches.

Eight reasons why Ukraine will end up like Yugoslavia

Eight reasons why Ukraine will end up like Yugoslavia

The end of the Cold War in 1991 marked the collapse of communism and Yugoslavia as a country. Will the end of Cold War 2.0 and the start of the proxy conflict between the West and Russia lead to the collapse of Ukraine and the end of American political and economic hegemony globally?

The end of the Cold War in 1991 marked the collapse of communism and Yugoslavia as a country. Will the end of Cold War 2.0 and the start of the proxy conflict between the West and Russia lead to the collapse of Ukraine and the end of American political and economic hegemony globally?

The first civil war that springs to mind is the one that broke out in the former Yugoslavia as the country broke apart. What about Ukraine, though? The topic of whether there are similarities between the civil wars in Ukraine and the former Yugoslavia surfaced in 2014. So, are there any parallels between the civil wars in the former Yugoslavia and Ukraine? Do they share any traits or not? Let's examine the specifics and find out more!

Here are eight reasons why Ukraine will most likely end up like Yugoslavia.

Multiethnic country​

​

In Yugoslavia, two main nations—the Serbs and the Croats—coexisted with other ethnic groups. Ukrainians, Russians (who make up around 20% of the population), and a few ethnic minorities (Rusyns, Romanians, and Hungarians) coexisted in this ethnically and linguistically diverse country.

The Serbs lost their status as a constitutional nation in the newly formed separatist republics of Croatia after Yugoslavia fell apart. The populace of Serbia was subjected to severe discrimination and harassment by new, illegitimately constituted nationalistic governments in Croatia and Bosnia. On the other hand, following the collapse of the Soviet Union, the Ukrainian government, particularly the Western installed puppet regime following the Maidan coup in 2014, gradually restricted and then outlawed the use of Russian as one of the two official languages of the country. In addition, the new regime outlawed the use of the Russian language in all public forums, including those run by local authorities, educational institutions, the media, bookstores, newspapers, etc. Russians have faced severe discrimination, and many of them have been assimilated into becoming “ethnic Ukrainians”. For instance, the majority of Ukrainian government officials even have popular Russian surnames (Fedorov, Danilov, Stefanishyna, Nemchinov, Laputina, Kubrakov, Reznikov, etc.). Many people in Ukraine suffer from the syndrome of "being greater catholic than the pope" to prove that they are deserving new members of the emerging nation. Numerous Serbs experienced the same kind of assimilation in Bosnia and Croatia.




Map of ethnic divisions in Yugoslavia

Religious conflict​

​

It is crucial to understand that there is a significant religious component to the Ukrainian war. Contrary to popular belief, Ukraine is not a unified orthodox Christian country. The current war is comparable to the Yugoslavian civil war, which also had strong religious overtones.

In the ex-Yugoslav wars, three opposing sides belonged to different religions. While Bosnian Muslims and Albanians are Muslims and Croats are Catholics, Serbs are Orthodox Christians.

The civil war in Ukraine follows a similar trend. Many Ukrainians identify with various Christian denominations. While the majority of Ukrainian forces are affiliated with the schismatic "Orthodox Church of Ukraine," Ukrainian Greek-Catholic church and the Catholic church, the population in Donbas, Eastern, and Southern Ukraine are affiliated with the Ukrainian Orthodox Church-Moscow Patriarchate (UOC-MP).

Tragic relations have existed throughout history between the Vatican and Orthodox Christians in the Balkans and Ukraine. The Orthodox population of Western Ukraine and Belarus was coerced into joining Rome during the XXVII century. Over the past three centuries, the Balkans saw the same tragic process of Catholic proselytizing and primarily violent conversion of the Orthodox population. For instance, during the Austro-Hungarian empire, many Orthodox Serbs were converted to Catholicism. More than 400.000 Orthodox Serbs were forcibly converted to Catholicism by the Vatican during World War II under the protection of a nazi puppet state known as the Independent State of Croatia. Additionally, around 100.000 Serbs were "peacefully integrated" into Catholics during the most recent civil war in the 1990s. More than 500 Orthodox churches, some of which date back to the XII century, were demolished in Croatia, Bosnia, and the Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohija.


Albanians under NATO patronage destroy medieval Serbian Orthodox Christian churches in Kosovo

The same type of destruction is happening right now in Ukraine. Orthodox churches are being targeted for premeditated demolition and seizure as part of the crisis in Ukraine. The majority of Ukrainians declare themselves as members of a schismatic church and consider the canonical Ukrainian Orthodox Church to be "Putin's religious tool" and a "Muscovite church." Because of this, Ukrainian forces have continued to demolish Orthodox churches and murder orthodox priests, as has been widely reported since 2014. They aim to impose their schismatic denomination forcibly in traditionally Orthodox Eastern Ukraine. Kiev regime is working with the USA and compromised CIA agent Patriarch Bartholomew of Istanbul to destroy the canonical orthodox church in Ukraine.

Let’s not forget Zbigniew Brzezinski's prediction that once communism is defeated, Orthodox Christianity will pose the greatest threat to the West. The well-known anti-Russian hawk and European neoliberal, Carl Bildt, claimed that Putin's return to Orthodoxy is the biggest mistake, worse than Islamic terrorism. The Clash of Civilizations? by the venerable Samuel Huntington comes to mind, in which he makes the case that in the post-Cold War world, people's cultural and religious identities will be the main source of conflict.

Western armament and propaganda support ​

​

The West publicly armed Croats, Bosnian Muslims, and Albanians throughout the civil war in Yugoslavia. Some Muslim nations, notably Saudi Arabia and Iran, also provided armed assistance to Bosnian Muslims. The same Western military support is currently being provided to Ukraine but on a much larger scale.

In addition to delivering armaments, the West was also strongly involved in anti-Serbian propaganda by demonizing the Serbs in the Western media. The West has always referred to Serbs as "little Russians from the Balkans.” One may argue that because of their shared Slavic ancestry, adherence to the orthodox faith, and affiliation with the same orthodox Slavic civilization.

We're Being Pushed Toward Nuclear War On A Fiction: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix

We're Being Pushed Toward Nuclear War On A Fiction: Notes From The Edge Of The Narrative Matrix

caitlinjohnstone.substack.com

excerpt:

We're being driven toward nuclear war on the completely fictional claim that Putin is a Hitler-like megalomaniac who's just invading countries completely unprovoked, solely because he is evil and hates freedom, and won't stop invading and conquering until he's stopped by force.​

​

The news media aren't telling people about the western aggressions which led to this war. They're not telling people the US is keeping this war going with the stated goal of weakening Russia and is rejecting peace talks and refusing to push for peace. All people are being told is that Putin is another Hitler who won't listen to reason and only understands violence. The world's two nuclear superpowers are being pushed closer and closer to direct military confrontation based on a complete fiction which omits mountains of facts.​

​

To participate in this madness is indefensible. It is indefensibly immoral to foist a fictional version of events upon a trusting populace in order to manufacture consent for more and more aggressive acts of brinkmanship with a nuclear superpower. These people are depraved.​
