Continued from previous post:

Some are for fear. Others favor courage in spite of circumstances. This is a very, very difficult choice. Choice through pain and deprivation.
But the second is much more. And good. The Lord does not help the fearful.

And perhaps this is how a new society is being created in Russia. Fearless Society. I would like to believe in it.

#YURI Ukrainian group near Liman in a rather risky position, in a a quite thin and large "appendix" corridor they carved trying to reach the rear of Liman group at all costs. That exposes this rather large group's flanks to a possible Russian counter-attack. The auxiliary attack from Dvorechye stalled. It increasingly looks like that Ukrainian command may already discard their previous plans to attack on Svatovo. The chances of large-scale successful Ukrainian offensives in the southern facade of the front diminishes as well.

🇬🇧🇺🇦 What do foreigners think about partial mobilization in Russia?

In a foreign Telegram, they were slightly surprised by the announcement of partial mobilization in Russia. According to the majority of bloggers and journalists, on the contrary, it is surprising that it was not there for so long, while Kyiv has already carried out 4 waves of general mobilization. Mainstream media, on the contrary, are actively promoting Ukrainian stories about “mass exodus” from Russia and the immediate dispatch of those mobilized to the front.

▪️The British iEarlGrey who moved to Russia and the Spanish journalist Liu Sivaya are ironic about the news about the fugitives from the mobilization that filled the pages of Western publications. According to Liu, this is a great topic to distract citizens from utility bills and prices in stores.

▪️The French from the ActualiteFR channel drew attention to the problems with the draft campaign, noting that the prompt reaction of the independent press and the Russian telegram community made it possible to correct the mistakes of the first days and will contribute to debugging the mobilization process. And at the same time they expressed regret that the French press does not have such influence on the socio-political agenda.

▪️Former US military and journalist Brian Berletic questions the claims of Western speakers who believe that the mobilized need to be prepared for 3 months before being sent to the front, and the training period of two weeks is supposedly a gesture of "despair". In his opinion, 3 months is the period of basic training for a US Marine, and two weeks is enough to remember the skills.

▪️Speaking about the changed goals and reasons for mobilization, journalist Pepe Escobar, in an article for @lantidiplomatico, notes that the decision to mobilize 300,000 people could be accelerated because the US will soon transfer long-range missiles capable of hitting Russian cities to Ukraine. In this regard, it is necessary to eliminate the numerical advantage of the Armed Forces of Ukraine and quickly move the enemy away from the borders.

▪️The authors of ASB Military News expect the mobilized units to secure the newly formed Russian borders and frontline zone in order to free the hands of a professional army that will concentrate on the offensive.

▪️ The CIG channel emphasizes that mobilization will require additional capacities of the military-industrial complex and the reorganization of logistics, which has clearly not been ready for a war with large human resources since the times of the USSR.

▪️According to military expert Scott Ritter, with mobilization and referendums, the tasks of the Russian operation are expanding, now its goal is the complete defeat of Ukraine with the liberation of Odessa and Kharkov at least. However, it will take a long time to reach it before Russia consolidates its forces through replenishment.

▪️The authors of the French channel Terra Bellum agree with him. They believe that the word “special operation” will gradually change its meaning after the change in the political background for the conflict, which will actually take place on the territory of Russia. But in order to develop an effective offensive, Russian troops will probably set up a layered defense on the borders, similar to the one that was created near Kherson, and after that they will move on to active operations.

▪️ The @rocknrollgeopolitics channel expressed an idea with which many Western experts agree: 300 thousand soldiers will be enough to attack Odessa, but hardly enough to liberate Kyiv and hold a front of 1000 km. And that means new mobilizations will follow.

The main thing is that this process should take place in conjunction with strikes against the strategic infrastructure of Ukraine - then there is a chance to win this war with fewer losses.

⚡️A series of explosions sounded in Zaporozhye, according to Vladimir Rogov, a member of the VGA

“This morning, a series of explosions sounded in the regional center, temporarily under the control of the Zelensky regime, between 05:05-05:20.

About ten explosions were heard in different parts of the city.

There were arrivals, there was air defense work.

Electricity went out in some parts of the city.”

⚔🇷🇺🇺🇦 Confusing Mobilization with a Draft

Is the Western media deliberately conflating the two?

Mobilization of reserves involves men who previously served in the military, have already been trained, and are being called back up, knowing full well this could happen based on the terms of their initial enlistment just like in the West.

Recall the US did this in 2006. Via the Guardian:

"The US marine corps has been forced to call up its reserves for compulsory service in Iraq and Afghanistan because it has not been able to find enough volunteers - a reflection of the strain the two wars are putting on America's armed forces.

The marines' involuntary call-up, seen as a "back-door draft" by Pentagon critics, is the first since the start of the Iraq war, and will begin in a few months when a first batch of up to 2,500 reservists will be summoned back to active service for a year or more. The army has already sent 2,200 reservists back to the front, of which only about 350 went voluntarily.

A draft involves calling up men who never served, have no training, and must be trained before being sent to serve - hence why some in the West claim these troops won't be ready for "months."

Mobilized reservists will be ready in 1-2 weeks, whether the West wants to accept this reality or not. They could be on the battlefield in less than a month's time.

The Ministry of Digital Development of Russia publishes a list of specialties in the field of information technology and communications that meet the criteria for exemption from partial mobilization.

«Denazification of UA, [27/09/2022 06:23]

New York Times: The Armed Forces of Ukraine recognized the uselessness of HIMARS

"The Ukrainian command in Bakhmut recently stated that even the presence of US-supplied missile systems, known as HIMARS, could not significantly affect the supply lines of Russian troops," the newspaper writes.

According to the publication, the Ukrainian troops came to the conclusion that the allied forces have successfully adapted to the appearance of Western MLRS in the enemy. Thus, Russian forces have also redistributed ammunition depots, making them less vulnerable to Kiev's attacks.»

On the referendums

Kiev, obviously, was preparing for a standard voting scheme, which it could easily disrupt with American "himers" and 155-mm "excaliburs", which were carefully and just for the referendum brought to Ukraine.

But Moscow played unconventionally.

She did not bet on stationary sites that the local population would be afraid to come to, not only because of possible strikes, but also because of the SBU informers who are plentiful in these territories, and who would definitely frighten everyone with the fact that everyone would be reported and handed over to the SBU. This would dramatically reduce turnout in the Kherson region and Zaporizhia, and lead to failure.

The decision to maximize the decentralization of land plots and the widest possible practice of going around people's homes kills two birds with one stone. Those who are afraid will vote at home, and it becomes pointless to hit the polling stations.

🇬🇧 Factories, "Spetsremont" and the liquidation of defense enterprises during the NWO

Against the backdrop of numerous demands to mobilize the economy and transfer it to a military footing, the news about the bankruptcy and sale of the property of defense plants sound absolutely fantastic. This process, of course, did not begin yesterday and has been going on for several years.

But seven months after the start of the special military operation and the seemingly obvious problems with the lack of production capacities of the military-industrial complex, such processes are surprising.

The following factories are currently being liquidated:

▪️50th Automobile Repair Plant, Rostov-on-Don
▪️258th repair plant for refueling and transporting fuel, Bataysk
▪️751st repair plant, Rostov, Yaroslavl region
▪️5th Central Automobile Repair Plant, Yekaterinburg
▪️88th Central Automobile Repair Plant, Chita
▪️15th Central Automobile Repair Plant, Novosibirsk
▪️172nd Central Automobile Repair Plant, Voronezh
▪️9th Central Automobile Repair Plant, Saratov and Engels
▪️487th Central Automobile Repair Plant, Republic of Bashkortostan
▪️81st Central Engineering Base, Yaroslavl Region
▪️1st design and fortification bureau, Moscow
▪️85th repair plant, Bryansk
▪️261st repair plant, Novgorod.

This is not a complete list of dying defense enterprises, but I would like to dwell on these separately. All of them belonged to the Spetsremont JSC, controlled by the Ministry of Defense, which, in theory, is engaged in the repair and modernization of armored vehicles. But the effectiveness, to put it mildly, is debatable.

In 2017, Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu stated in the State Duma that JSC Spetsremont owed the Ministry of Defense: in 2012-2013, the enterprises of the subholding were supposed to supply about 22,000 units of military equipment worth 12 billion rubles. However, this did not happen.

🔻 Apparently, after that, it was decided to transfer these enterprises to Rostec JSC. But even the state corporation could not clearly answer the question about their prospects.

As a result, only one of the entire list of enterprises was lucky - the 258th repair plant in Bataysk, where Rostvertol is going to make a flight test station.

The rest of the factories are selling unique equipment for next to nothing, and experienced personnel are being fired. This process is accompanied by corruption scandals.

▪️For example, Andrey Yakovlev, the former director of the 88th Central Automobile Repair Plant from Chita, was arrested in 2015 for organizing a criminal community. Sergei Chadaev was appointed to replace him, who, as they say, sold out the entire repair fund of the plant.

▪️The 9th Central Automobile Repair Plant is a developer of unique ceramic armor for military equipment. But military customers refused the services of the plant, and it was bankrupted by its own trade union.

▪️Most factories are waiting for the sale of equipment, cutting of all metal and reprofiling into warehouses, shopping centers, office space, etc. Perhaps - complete demolition and construction of an LCD in their place. And this is now, in conditions of an extremely urgent need for military equipment against the backdrop of hostilities.

All these enterprises today are vital for increasing the country's defense capability. But since the decision to preserve them was never made by the Russian Ministry of Defense, most likely, we, naive bloggers, do not understand anything about this: after all, there, at the top, they know better what is needed and what is not for the needs of the military-industrial complex, right ?

Meanwhile in the EU, some are starting to wake up to the reality. However, they are not yet asking, why their laws allow such things in the first place, and who wrote them and why:

«The CDU chairman Friedrich Merz spoke of "social tourism" in connection with refugees from Ukraine. "We are now experiencing social tourism from these refugees - to Germany, back to Ukraine, to Germany, back to Ukraine," said Merz in an interview with "Bild TV".

A larger number of those who fled Ukraine would "take advantage of this system," Merz continued. "We have a problem there, it's getting bigger. We pointed out in the spring that this problem could arise.” The federal government “played deaf,” said Merz.»

💬 Vladimir Buinak: “With the collapse of the Soviet Union, everything became very bad, and over time, our region, one might say, was destroyed. We are only for the Russian Federation, we are only for Russia. We were Russian-speaking, we studied in Russian schools.”

💬 Elena Korobova: “The reunion, of course, is long-awaited, how much we have been waiting for, more than 8 years, and, finally, it has happened or it will happen soon.”

💬 Vladimir Kharchenko: "I'm tired of the war, I want calm and peace."

An increase in the supply of Western weapons to Kyiv is unlikely to happen, as the United States takes a cautious stance, and Europe's stocks are "running out", reports Bloomberg.

There is no evidence that European countries are preparing to send heavy weapons to Kyiv. Arms deliveries from Italy slowed down in July, Ukraine was "crowded out" from the government's priority list, the agency notes.
