Smoke and mirrors. Gaza. Lebanon. Syria. Yemen. Iran. Ukraine. Not to mention the strangulation of free thought and free speech in the west. Lookit the shiny golden thing.

It would appear that since Trump’s inauguration we have seen naught but theatre and narrative peddling from the west. Following ‘negotiations’ between the USA and Ukraine in Saudi Arabia we are now told that the ‘ball is in Russia’s court’ – this phrase uttered in concert from a variety of western sources (always a tell)….

Interesting how ‘the west’ views ‘security’ as such a vital consideration, all of a sudden. The United Kingdom, European Union and Ukraine are fixated upon the importance of ‘security guarantees’ not just for Ukraine, but – in face of the (fictitious) ‘existential threat’ that Russia and Putin pose – for the entire ‘free, sovereign, democratic,…

Given Russia’s previous experience with the Minsk (one and two) agreements, and the manner in which comments are currently being made – from the EU, UK and now the US – regarding ‘peacekeepers’ in Ukraine… I fear yet another trap is being set for Putin of a similar nature.

Right or wrong, good or bad… whatever your subjective opinion regarding Trump, his ability to disrupt the ‘established’ status quo and challenge the received wisdom of western political, cultural and media classes is obvious.

In other words, a western narrative construct. Navalny began his career as a businessman in the 2000’s… buying companies in order to privatise their profits (which was illegal…

For anyone sincerely and objectively seeking understanding of events in Ukraine around 2014, including Maidan, I would highly recommend watching the entire ‘Roses Have Thorns‘ series from Watchdog Media; a lengthy collection of contemporary news reports and video, without commentary. There is a playlist still available (for now) on YouTube. However Maidan is presented, in…

Ukraine cannot go toe-to-toe with Russia, despite the huge assistance of her western partners; doing so has cost Ukraine army after army. Ukraine has received and is receiving hand-me-downs. Ukraine are on the brink of collapse. It is also true to say that Ukraine/NATO/US are losing by the terms of their own victory conditions, aims…
