‘They’re Zombies’: US Pharma Experiment Pumping Ukraine Soldiers w/ Drugs, Army Captain Warns'​

lol...
Polish media rushed to interview witnesses who heard drones being shot down after flying into Poland.

One of the witnesses directly stated that this whole "attack" is a planned provocation by Ukraine:
— I think it was the Ukrainians (who launched the drones).
— You think so?
— Of course!
— The Ukrainians say there was a massive attack on their territory. Well, some of the drones ended up in Poland, but some drones, as Donald Tusk said, came through Belarus.
— Everyone says what they want. That's why I don't watch TV, because it's not worth filling your head with the nonsense shown on Polish television. 😂

Those drones couldn't fly from Russia to Poland. Not enough fuel.

Looks like another false flag event to make Article 5 kick in.

They look rehabbed with duct tape holding them together. Probably bought them on ebay?

LOL

EU has pensioners, "draftable" immigrants living on the dole, and debt. War is good for business!

Capital controls will be enacted in the EU and wealth is leaving before the first shot is fired that starts WWIII.

General Harald Kujat: NATO Provoked Ukraine War​

General Harald Kujat is a former head of the German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr) and the former Chairman of NATO's Military Committee. Having held the top military position in both Germany and NATO, General Kujat offers his expertise on how the West and Russia ended up fighting a proxy war in Ukraine. General Kujat discusses the failure to reach a common understanding after the Cold War, the toppling of President Yanukovych in Ukraine, the sabotage of the Minsk agreement and the Istanbul peace negotiations, and the West's lies about an "unprovoked" and "full-scale invasion" of Ukraine. When Boris Johnson came to Ukraine to sabotage the peace negotiations in 2022, one of Zelensky's close associates summed up the essence of Johnson's visit: "Johnson brought two simple messages to Kyiv. The first is that Putin is a war criminal; he should be pressured, not negotiated with. And the second is that even if Ukraine is ready to sign some agreements on guarantees with Putin, they are not. We can sign [an agreement] with you [Ukraine], but not with him. Anyway, he will screw everyone over".

Interesting turn of events............

In major shift, Trump says he now thinks Ukraine can win back all of its territory taken by Russia​

President Donald Trump said Tuesday afternoon that he thinks Ukraine, with help from the European Union, could win back its territory from Russia and return the country to its original borders.

The president had suggested numerous times that giving up some land would be a key component of resolving Ukraine’s war with Russia.

“After getting to know and fully understand the Ukraine/Russia Military and Economic situation and, after seeing the Economic trouble it is causing Russia, I think Ukraine, with the support of the European Union, is in a position to fight and WIN all of Ukraine back in its original form,” Trump said in a lengthy post on Truth Social.

Putin betrayed as Russian insider admits that war is 'at a dead end'​

Vladimir Putin's war effort has hit a "dead end," according to one of his staunchest allies. Dmitry Rogozin, once a key Kremlin insider, painted a bleak picture of the conflict, describing the futility of the frontline battles, coming as Moscow was described as 'under siege' from Ukrainian drone attacks.

He went so far as to accuse Putin - whose recent appearance has been mocked - of ordering Russians to kill other ethnic Russians who had sided with Ukraine. Rogozin said the fighting had settled into a deadlock dominated by drones on both sides.

Agree. I think it's not about Ukraine. Probably Gaza...?

If NATO could have defeated Russia, they would have gone into Ukraine 3 years ago instead of sending mercenaries and making it a proxy war.
 
This just a bad idea, it encourages the Israelis to take out our military leadership with one or two quick airstrikes/missile attacks. ....
 
Three minutes to convince me you are relevant ( and I’ve got your file here ) or you are fired
Could be entertaining and very Trumpian ……

Civil unrest in America as the government goes dictatorship???

That's the MSM fear, but I'm thinking the Constitution is so foreign to what's been going on since 1913 that American folks will say it's a 'dictatorship', because they have no idea what freedom really is?

As for Ukraine... "Avoid foreign entanglements" G.Washington, has fallen on deaf ears, but for the very same reason above: 1913.

Putting the Union back together might appear 'dictatorship' to some, but rooting out the corruption that caused Ukraine et al is a BIG job.

Ukraine already IS a dictatorship being run in London by proxy.
