This made me chuckle. Does Penn know this?
“I think it’s key here that it’s not particularly likely that this disinformation is *coordinated* between Beijing, Moscow, and QAnon lunatics/Tucker Carlson/Glenn Greenwald in the US – instead each has their own incentives for spreading and amplifying it.”
I am still befuddled by Russia’s strategy in the air.
“Ukrainians still have 50 fighter aircraft, 80 percent of their stock before the war began.”
Or,
“Ukraine only flying 56 fighter jets 5-10 hours per day due to Russian SAM coverage.”
Interesting
According to the Ukrainian military and civil servants, Belarus is preparing to invade Ukraine at 21:00 today – Ukrayinska Pravda
It seems things are stuck/stalled.
But on Wednesday, the Institute for the Study of War said Russian forces “continued concentrating in the eastern, northwestern and western outskirts of Kyiv for an assault on the Ukrainian capital in the coming 24-96 hours.”
This is a message worth repeating.
“We’re not at war with Ukraine and Ukrainians, but at war with the USA inside Ukraine.”
When hasn’t there been a Manchuria candidate/president? I get the vibe your talking about, totally measured and controlled almost like a Stepford wife, but married to who/what? Seriously though, she seems sick/done with this neocon BS.
John,
So this nefarious behind the scenes Hindu Machine that you speak of, do you have any links? Curious.
Pinched from the comment section regarding HK CFR
Hi Igor, your research and writing is nothing less than stellar. I just want to give my two cents on the situation since I live in the city. Hong Kong had the unique opportunity to look at the world around them as a crystal ball of what could potential happen. The city lagged behind the world in terms of covid cases. The government contributed its success to their experience with SARS one and their zero covid policy. They were able to keep covid at bay for two years and the government sat on its laurels patting themselves on their back on the good job they have done. Because of this, they built quarantine units in the outskirts of the city, Penny’s Bay, and anyone who had covid or a close contact had to go there for 21 days.
All this was fine and dandy until Omnicron started to emerge in the city. Then the government turned up the fear knob up to 11 and told people to get vaccinated or they will die. I remember that the vaccination rate jumped from like mid 60% to more than 70%. A week later, cases started to explode. Somehow within the two years, they failed to notice that cases explode after mass vaccination. And as the cases soared, the vaccination rate followed. And as vaccination rate soars, cases soar in an ironic obvious cycle that was completely predictable.
Most of the deaths so far are from the elderly 65+ from retirement homes who have frail health and comorbitities. Being one of the densest city in the world, it’s not a surprise that a highly transmittable disease will spread like wildfire. There are mass outbreaks in apartment building because of the way they were built. People are getting infected in their homes simply by opening their windows.
Some scientists estimate that up to 15% of the 7.5 million inhabitants are already infected. The hospitals are overflowed, people can’t get access to medication and even private clinics are closed. People in Penny’s Bay and quarantine hotels are locked up with little to no help.
Now, schools will have their early ‘summer holiday’ from mid March to late April so schools can be converted to testing center as the government prepares for compulsory testing for all 7.5M people. It’s terrible policy one after the other. The whole city is dead with few shops open. There is also a vaccine pass in place where the people who haven’t had one shot can’t enter restaurants and even shopping malls. In April, it will be two shots and in June three shots. I can’t imagine the potential vaccine adverse effect fallout in a few months.
My family and I all contracted covid and we all took Ivermectin. None of us were any worse of than catching the flu. If we had caught it a few weeks before, our building would have been closed for mandatory quarantine and we would have been moved to Penny’s Bay. But since there are so many cases, there simply isn’t any manpower. Many people actually don’t need to visit the hospitals but because of the fearmongering by the government, people flock there at the first sign of symptoms.
It’s the poor government policy that’s making a mess rather than the disease itself. All the anxiety, waste of resources and economic ruins, Hong Kong has learnt nothing from the rest of the world. Instead, it follows the same paths of other failed countries. Hong Kong is no exception; it’s just late to the party.
Anyone happen to have been following the Igor Shusko thread? It was deleted this afternoon.
Side note: Ted Cruz road with the lead truck in the convoy around DC today.
Or tossing them up in the air and skewering on end of a bayonet. I get it but there are other pertinent details in the those updates for those following along. I’m sure (in the moment) Putin does not want that but he is rapidly approaching that indiscriminate point of no return.
1/ Ukrainian Theater of War, Day 14: After two weeks of war, Russian forces continue employ indiscriminate attacks to demoralize Ukrainian political resolve and military resistance. This growing war of attrition has not changed Western opinion on intervention.
2/ Humanitarian Impact. UN sources report more than 2 million refugees have fled Ukraine. Indiscriminate attacks of civilians are mounting at an alarming rate. 3,000 civilians were able to leave Irpin, but many remained trapped in Sumy, Mariupol, and other cities.
3/ Weather assessment. Improved weather conditions throughout the Ukrainian theater will increase the frequency of VKS air and missile attacks. Warmer ground temperatures will make off road movement difficult, as recent snowfall will make the ground to soft for heavy armor.
4/ Kyiv AO assessment is detailed in this chart. Key take away, Ukrainian forces have been pushed into a tight defensive ring around Kyiv. However, as indicative of today’s unsuccessful attack into Irpin, Russian forces remained challenged to execute large-scale assaults.
5/ Northeast AO assessment is detailed in this chart. Key take away, Ukrainian attacks against Russian supply routes is having a decisive effect on preventing attacks against Kyiv. However, it is unclear how long the Ukrainians can maintain this.
For the rest….
Not sure how to preface this, but let’s just say I’m Sakered out, too pregnant with promise and starting to diverge from the overall vibe I am sensing.
[..] Anton is the second in command of a Ukrainian insurgency-in-waiting, one of many, no doubt, that plans to resort to guerrilla warfare in the event that Russian President Vladimir Putin’s attempted conquest of Ukraine turns into a prolonged occupation of major population centers.
[..] The not-very-imaginatively named “Resistance Movement — Free Ukraine,” which Anton helps command, puts its numbers at about a thousand-strong. He claims it has already got operatives working “undercover” behind enemy lines in contested areas of Ukraine such as Mariupol, Sumy, Kharkiv and Irpin, near Kyiv.
“Doing what?” I ask.
“Diversionary tactics,” Anton answers. They are blowing up Russian equipment and Russian soldiers.
[..] According to Anton, 250 fighters have fanned out all around Kyiv, but 800 more are embedded in different units of Ukraine’s armed forces or territorial defense, fighting to keep the Russians out of the capital.
“If these units are destroyed or moved back,” he says, “they will remove their fatigues, put on civilian clothing and become insurgents that very day. They can operate autonomously, with their own resources, and make life a living hell for the invaders. Morale is extremely high.”
Not only that, the Resistance Movement has apparently fielded any number of scouts, informants and civilian reconnaissance teams, including, Anton says, “little old ladies and old men with canes, who watch the enemy’s movements and then call in their location.”
[..] More potential guerrillas are being produced daily. “We have two training camps, one in central Ukraine, one in western Ukraine,” Anton says. “We teach our fighters how to stop a tank, how to bomb it, how to burn out Russian vehicles. We’ve been instructing people for the last seven days.”
Six hundred are being trained collectively in both camps: “They train in masks, so no one knows anyone else’s identity. In case one person is captured, he cannot lead the Russians to anyone else.”
Has any third party or foreign country helped with supporting the Resistance Movement?
“Not yet,” Anton insists, although he is hoping to change that. His organization addressed a letter to a top Ukrainian official urging him to ask U.S. National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, as well as CIA Director William Burns and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, to help support his guerrilla battalion.
[..] The New York Times has reported that the Biden administration has signaled to allies that in the event Ukraine’s conventional military capability collapses, both the CIA and the Pentagon would foster Ukrainian partisan warfare. A senior European intelligence official I’m in regular contact with says that what’s been amply demonstrated within the last two weeks is that “Russia’s way of war has destroyed any likelihood that Moscow will win over ‘hearts and minds’ on a meaningful scale in Ukraine. This means insurgency will spread in occupied territories.”
“Supporting a Ukrainian insurgency is built into the DNA of both the U.S. intelligence community and special operations forces,” Marc Polymeropolous, who oversaw the CIA’s clandestine operations in Europe and Eurasia, tells me. “For years, the U.S. provided our Ukrainian friends with training and material assistance. The military’s Special Operations Command Europe was created nearly seven decades ago for just this moment, countering a Russian invasion in Europe.
[..] At the moment,” Anton says, “we have no doubts about Zelenskyy. He seems very strong. We are all shocked in a good way.”
“We removed the ‘Capitulation’ from our name because as of right now, no one is talking about it. The entire nation is concentrated on fighting these dickheads.”

A mashup up comments from twitter today.
“Russian airstrikes are turning Ukrainian cities into dust, killing civilians, killing children. Every day. Dear partners, Ukraine is worth saving. For the sake of whole Europe strengthen air defense capabilities.”
Deputy mayor of #Mariupol Sergiy Orlov has just been speaking. Says city under “continuous Russian shelling”, genocide taking place, 1170 people killed, 47 buried today in a mass grave. No water, heat, power, gas, with residents drinking snow and burning firewood. “It’s medieval”
Klitschko also told me Kyiv has resources for “I guess a week or maybe two weeks.”
In the area of Ukraine I’m in, most are closed [restaurants].
But there are still a few that are open, albeit with reduced opening hours (in part due to curfews).
My broad sense is that some food supplies are stretched, but they are still serving.Looking at the Odessa opera house, my colleague asks me, “surely they can’t just bomb this to oblivion?” Responded: two weeks ago we would have said the same about Kharkiv.
Information War. Ukrainians in occupied cities throughout southern Ukraine confront Russian Soldiers in mass protests to the invasion. In Russia demonstrations also continue, with an estimated 14,000 Russians having been imprisoned for speaking against the war.

Day 14 of Ukraine resistance. Russia is exacerbating humanitarianism catastrophe in Mariupol, small towns Bucha, Irpin near Kyiv. There’s no electricity, heating, food and water. People melt snow to drink. Hospitals destroyed by airstrikes.The West still hesitates to provide jets
Serious? That was weak.

Truckers met with senators Cruz and Johnson. Good on them. I guess they plan on circling DC until emergency is dropped? Not sure about the optics of this. I think the greatest impact was all the people they brought together along their journey.
Pentagon estimates Russian troop losses at 2 to 4K, a far cry from the 12k on social media.
Pentagon backs down of polish fighter jets. Putin does not appear to be bluffing, totally laying waste to towns (mop up) as they press on. The West has already telegraphed their response, doubt it will change. Russia wants towns/cities drained of civilians before commence with carpet bombing.

Nice sound bites from Tulsi last night.
I have read Russian planes are still being shot down.
The Ukrainian Air Force retains most of its fixed-wing fleet according to US reports. Ukrainian MANPADS are the primary threat for VKS fixed-wing sorties. The VKS still remains ineffective in planning a comprehensive operation to gain air superiority. ( Jomini day 12 update)
Also read the Russian army are laying waste to the smaller towns as they roll throw and leave them.
I would not be surprised if Russia is blocking social media from their citizens.

Putin hates the West and has sufficient support of his people.
The West knows little about Russia and their history beyond what they have been told.
Not sure how you take Kyiv with 10s of thousands of combatants embedded in the city. Starve them out? Bomb them back to the stone age?
The West’s playbook of creating a proxy and supplying them arms is likely to fail and many people are sick to death as they has been seen over and over. There is nothing to rally around, nothing to believe in.
The vibe has definitely skewed/bias. Not that I want to see young dead Russian soldiers on social media, but dead Ukrainian soldiers aren’t showing up. Same with obliterated military hardware, mostly Russian.
I sat through an intel update this afternoon. While I can’t get specific, what I will say is that the view of the war that we are getting from expertly curated UKR IO is giving a lot of folks an impression of not only RUS incompetence but also UKR dominance. 1/6

This messaging/labeling is gaining traction.
The convergence between Trump grassroots and Putin grassroots propaganda is nearly complete.

Getting the sense that Putin is not playing a role in the “Great Reset” agenda or that he was duped into this. In the moment, the question of wether he is delusional is still on the table.
Found the following video helpful in establishing context and motivations.

apsnaz said,
“I consider this story to be extremely unlikely. Do you have a source for this alegation?”
I prefaced those anecdotes with
“The tails (tales) of human imagination.”
This is interesting. It is hard to know what is what? I have seen enough death and destruction and it is getting more unfathomable by the hour. Lots of questions. One thing that seems apparent is that this is looking like a gamble by Putin. Gutsy if this ends soon, insane if it does not. It seems the goals of the invasion are destruction of the Ukrainian government, control of all Ukrainian territory, the end of Ukrainian sovereignty, and a solution to the “Ukrainian question.” You can glean that here (you will have to convert it’s in Russian). It was published Feb. 26th.
China and India, Latin America and Africa, the Islamic world and Southeast Asia – no one believes that the West leads the world order and even more so sets the rules of the game. Russia has not just challenged the West – it has shown that the era of Western global domination can be considered completely and finally over. The new world will be built by all civilizations and centers of power, of course, together with the West (united or not) – but not on its terms and not according to its rules.

Also, there are aspects of the following that seem authentic but given all the propaganda it is hard to say for sure.

I caught this recently. I have followed Prasad and he is what I consider “on the fence”, “middle of the road”. He has definitely on record regarding the jabbing of children, on par with Malone, it makes no sense.
“There is now data from the VA showing that people how had covid who get vaccinated have higher rates of adverse events. What they are doing is actually dangerous. They’re out of their minds.” (Vinay Prasad MD)
“And…as I predicted he would, Dr. Prasad is drifting further and further into actual antivax territory. It’s sadly predictable.” (David Gorski MD)
I follow the Saker updates. I have also been following this guy’s updates. He is a day behind, but it is good to contrast and compare.
Russian Overall Assessment. The Russians appear to be settling into an operational tempo of 5-6 days of sustained combat followed by a 24-48 pause to refit and reorganize. Setting a pace like this has risks and benefits, and opportunities for Ukraine to exploit.
Ukrainian Overall Assessment. The Ukrainian military still controls key points of communication and continues to be able to contest control of its airspace with Russian Aerospace forces. Despite foreign aid, attrition will eventual ground the Ukrainian Aur Force.
The tails (tales) of human imagination,
“Self-proclaimed “prophet” Johnny Enlow is merging QAnon conspiracy theories with his love of Russia, claiming that Putin is fighting “Luciferian pedophiles” who were using Ukraine to carry out the Illuminati’s plans to use 5G and vaccines to create transhumanist semi-robots.”
If you think Putin’s invasion of Ukraine seems so cruel, unnecessary and pointless, let me tell you how Syria started. A few kids in Dara’a sprayed anti-Assad graffiti on a high school wall. 15 kids were arrested, beaten, tortured, had their fingernails ripped out.
I am fairly certain that many want Russia to stand down and the US to abandon is neocon ways, this is our common ground but it’s not what I am reading or seeing. I found this to be very insightful tough not reassuring.
Conducting sudden, top-secret special operations is the main pattern of Russian President Vladimir Putin’s behavior. As a former chekist [security official], he always wants to catch everyone off-guard, in order to frighten them and to impress on them that he can do whatever he wants. We witnessed this once again during the emergency meeting of the Security Council three days before the war. The stammering of foreign intelligence head Sergei Naryshkin, the confusion of deputy Kremlin administration head Dmitry Kozak, and the worried face of Moscow mayor Sergei Sobyanin were evidence enough. The most influential people in Russia sat before Putin like schoolchildren before a teacher who had suddenly announced an exam. And this meeting wasn’t even about a war — they were only discussing the recognition of the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk “people’s republics.”

Along with Lindsay Graham head exploding, here are some comments the make weep, laugh or what the beep.
“Brutal economic and social collapse of the Russian Federation has just started. All indicators show Russia is heading for the Middle Ages and there is no way brutal force could suppress all Russians who will be hungry. Putin is done, the only question is when and how.”
“Bellingcat investigator Christo Grozev says that #Russia has resources left for the war until Sunday, after which they will collapse. Also next week, Russia is facing sanctions, the scale of which “we have not seen before”, and they will also affect Putin”
“Russians occupied Kherson, a southern city where my whole family is from, and are now streaming Russian TV-channels. But make no mistake – the locals will never fall the Kremlin’s propaganda. P.S. This is fucking Orwellian.”
“Ukrainian Military Forces are reportedly Beginning to Launch a Major Counteroffensive in the Kharkiv Region using Armor, Artillery and Mechanized Forces, they plan to push Russian Forces back to the border region.”
“U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Friday that NATO would defend all of its allies against any Russian attack, stressing that “we seek no conflict, but if conflict comes to us, we are ready for it.”
Zelensky delivered a televised speech to the people of Europe. “Do not be silent, support Ukraine. Because if Ukraine does not survive, the whole Europe will not survive. If Ukraine falls, the whole Europe will fall.”
“I know it sounds contra-intuitive, but it feels that Russia and its army are about to collapse. RU obviously has no reserves left: the tanks they send to the front are very old, without active armor, look like training machines. They do not have trucks, using civilian ones”
It rips out my heart to get this message from my friend, a Ukrainian soldier currently in combat in Ukraine’s east:’ Things are very bad. Desperately need air support. But we get none…’
“the British Defence Secretary was saying that one of the core reasons behind being against a no fly zone was that it would also stop the Ukrainian Air Force from operating, and that they were having success. Is that not the reality on the ground?”
“This is strategic information about vulnerability. You shouldn’t post it.”
“GERMANY’S CHANCELLOR SCHOLZ: NATO WILL NOT GET INVOLVED MILITARILY IN THE CONFLICT IN UKRAINE.”

https://reddit.com/r/volunteersForUkraine…
#SlavaUkraine #StopPutin #kyiv #VolunteersForUkraine“I honestly do not see the connection that if NATO planes were to provide Ukraine air cover, that this would lead to WW3? It’s a real stretch IMO. Do really think Russia has the ability to fight a war on all fronts? They can barely handle what their facing in Ukraine…”
“Air support= nuclear standoff with Russia. If NATO or the US provided air support then
Russia has no way of shooting down Ballistic missiles, the west and NATO does. Not saying that we should go to war, but if this happens that will be end of Russia and a lot of Europe. But Russia knows they will be no more.”“As long as NATO continues to be afraid, Russia will continue to move towards Europe.”
“Good luck with that, there seems to be a distinct lack of response from
@NATO as #Ukraine are finding out. Think they’re to afraid of finding Novichok Nerve Agent on their door handles”“It’s not just neutrality and non-nato, it’s full demilitarization. This is after Russia co-signed the Budapest Memorandum in the 90’s and *still* invaded. Russia cannot be trusted.”
“I’m horrified that the world stands by watching, sitting on their hands as Putin works his way through Ukraine, murdering civilians and soldiers, committing war crimes to satisfy his ego. What IS worth fighting for, if not this? What is NATO for, if not this?”
“But to intentionally capitulate to Poopin would allow him to attack anyone anytime.I guess he wants to be King of the world. Looks like we are going to stand by and watch the slaughter. Just like TFG looks like he gets a pass too.”
“People around the world feel they are helping and supporting by bashing Putin on social media and lighting up monuments, it’s beyond ridiculous that governments sent help so late and not enough once they did.”
“No air support, but Germany will provide Ukraine with 2,700 surface-to-air rockets.
How they get there, who delivers them to Ukrainian Freedom Fighters and how soon, is the rub. I’d add some quads and motorcycles, satellite phones..”“if i had any military experience or any type of physical help i could provide to ukraine i’d spend any money i had to fly there immediately.”
“Turns out some of the rockets Germany agreed to send Ukraine are 35-year-old leftovers from the East German army that don’t work and have been rotting in moldy wood boxes. It’s the thought that counts!”

I find a couple things interesting as I read and discuss this. The older boomer generation, I typically find a a lot denial, they are only open to the evil Russia narrative. There is much more curiosity with the Gen Xers. Many of are worn out on the whole regime change/neocon agenda. Someone, like a Tulsi Gabbard really resonates in this regard. I was encouraged the other day when my oldest son reached out to me and asked for some reliable info on this conflict. I told he should check out TAE and the comment section, particularly that chooch guy. Again, thanks for the link I will definitely pass it on to him.
T-bear/chris_gee,
I see this more and more. When I pull up articles online for stories I have read 10+ years ago they seem lite on content/context per my memory. Fortunately, I have squirreled some of the print material but it takes time to rummage through boxes, but sure enough it’s been watered down or content has been edited out.
Hmmm, masking? Social distancing? Lockdown /contact tracing/testing? Jabs, double jabs, tripple jabs?
Hurts to think about it, better leave it to the experts.

phoenixvoice,
If we could only get more of it (time). It seems the stand taken by the truckers in Canada is having quite the ripple effect. There was one convoy that fizzled out, I believe they were trying to get to DC by the time of state of the union address. This one, the peoples convoy, seems to have some momentum. Lee Dundas and Indiana’s attorney general also spoke last night. Probably more than 100 semis but less than 200. Plenty of RVs and pickups too. They headed out for Ohio today. Updates progress/provided here.
The health freedom rallies I attended last fall did not have this level of awareness or support but get the impression that is changing in our state and the AG is planning to run for Governor in 2024.
There is another convoy that left Spokane and is headed to DC. It’s called the freedom convoy. They are stopping in Spiceland, IN Saturday and heading out Sunday. Rally from 8am to 10am Sunday.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
In my youth I was inundated with end time theology. Thief in the Night (1972 – age 7). When really bad Tstorms rolled through I used to check to see if people I knew got raptured away without me. Then came the Late Great Planet Earth (1978 – age 13). By the time I went to college, the idea of Armageddon involving Russia was a potential reality in my mind. Reagan was president at the time. Contemplating going in to the military after college, I took Russian as an elective, just in case I became a POW.
Fortunately, by the time I became a father I had different understanding about life and it’s purpose and meaning and didn’t pass that nonsense on to my children. It’s funny, you spend half your life getting indoctrinated and the second half undoing it.
Ironically, my enemy now is the neocon globalist parasites and find myself rootin for Putin.
Currently at peoples convoy trucker rally in central Indiana. Well over 2000 people in attendance. Dr. Ryan Cole just spoke. Hands joined in prayer. Amazing energy.
