US/Ukrop nazis used HIMARS rockets to attack a memorial service in Volnavaha for Sparta Commander Voha, who was killed there one year ago. The memorial service was specifically targeted, but the missile missed by 40 meters. Guardian Angels protected those who came to honor Voha. Davai.

I hope the world got its money's worth...

This is ridiculous and disgusting, but par for the course. Trying to murder those who remember Heroes, and History...

🪖 Ukrainian fighters take revenge on Donbass heroes even after their deaths

‼️MUST READ‼️ THIS is what I'm talking about! Post from a member of the chat chan, original, brilliant, well sourced.

United States military aid to Ukraine is predatory debt paving the way to theft of Ukraine’s treasure.

Clause (3) of the Lend-Lease Act of 2022: https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/senate-bill/3522/text

“ (3) Condition.--Any loan or lease of defense articles to the
Government of Ukraine under paragraph (1) shall be subject to
all applicable laws concerning the return of and reimbursement
and repayment for defense articles loan or leased to foreign
governments.”

Ukraine can never pay back hundreds of billions in “military aid” and the wealthy elite is emptying Ukraine like pigs at the trough.

This is why Blackstone has been in and out of Ukraine in recent weeks.

Blackrock vs Blackstone
Blackstone and Blackrock are some of the biggest finance companies in the world with over $961 billion and $9 trillion in assets under management (AUM), respectively. The two firms have a similar heritage since Blackrock’s Larry Fink left Blackstone to start his firm. 

They nonetheless operate in different industries. Blackstone’s business is in real estate, private equity, hedge fund solutions, and credit and insurance. On the other hand, Blackrock’s business is in equity, fixed income, multi-asset, alternatives, cash management, and advisory.

Professor Michael Hudson asks, “How can a Zelenskyy puppet government actually have the authority to sell…” Ukraine to the Vultures?

Hudson describes an hilarious suggestion in the Washington Post.

Supposed “leaks” indicating a US State Department willing to talk to Russia to make a settlement on all of this. “Maybe we’re even willing to give Russia the Donetsk and Lugansk regions”, they say.

Michael Hudson says he can imagine what Blinken might be saying to Russia:

“Well Russia, you can have these regions.

It’s okay if they’re part of Russia now,

BUT you have to respect the international private property rules

AND you have to realise the titanium resources in this region we need for our airlines; the agricultural land is so fertile we need to control the export trade; your oil and gas and all of your minerals have been bought up by the Americans from Mr. Zelensky’s regime.”

Michael Hudson wryly asks:

“Is Russia willing to abide by the Rules Based Order that says US firms stole Ukraine’s wealth fair and square?”

Unsurprisingly, Russia completely rejects the “Rules Based Order” ploy to pretend to Europe that the US is willing to leave parts of Ukraine like Lugansk and Donetsk in Russian hands and keep Crimea too as long as the US private sector owns most of this property, which of course is inconceivable in principle.

Professor Michael Hudson says the idea of breaking Russia into five or six countries is an absurd distraction.

The United States wants to control the world outside of Russia. Not defeat Russia itself.

The Ukraine war has always been about turning Europe into a dependency.

One economic effect of the war in Ukraine is to completely disarm Europe.

Europe has no more tanks, no more rifles, no more ammunition. It’s a huge market for American arms if the United States can continue to keep current European political leaders in power.

The United States manages imperial decline by dominating its allies (vassals) in the diminished imperial sphere.

The US knows they can’t stop China, Russia, India and Iran coming together.

According to Hudon, the United States had also hoped the sanctions would put such an economic squeeze on debtor countries in Latin America, Africa and South Asia that they would be forced into higher reliance on the dollar.

The Power Elite creates terminal illness then provides palliative care. A global protection racket.

We are justified in calling Ukraine’s government a neo-Nazi regime. Not only do they officially glorify Hitler’s collaborators like Bandera, but are also employing Nazi methods and practices.

Life in Donetsk...

🇷🇺 Yevgeny Prigozhin answers questions from Western journalists at the T-34-85 monument almost from the center of Bakhmut.

His balls are the size of Jupiter and Saturn, of course.

FULL VID, ENGLISH SUBTITLES. PREGOZHIN IN CENTRAL BAKMUT, SENDS A MESSAGE TO THE NYT... ENJOY!

💢 We publish a request from the editorial board of the New York Times, and the answer:

«The New York Times newspaper wants to know. Today, the speaker of the Eastern Grouping of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Sergei Cherevaty, said that Bakhmut will become Wagner's "last frontier", since their human reserves, collected from people serving sentences in the colonies of the Russian Federation, are being depleted.

Yevgeny Viktorovich previously called the ban on attracting prisoners an attempt to "bleed out the Wagner PMCs." We ask him to comment on the statement of the representative of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.

Thank you in advance.»

We publish the related answer by E.V. Prigozhin

@NewResistance

Will the RF MoD waste all the work Wagner has done by AGAIN failing to adequately supply them enough ammo and material, which Wagner needs to repel the upcoming ukrop counter attack in Soledar? WE WILL SOON SEE...

🇷🇺🇺🇦 On the AFU´s possible counterattack near Bakhmut - Rybar and Military Chronicle´s analysis

The head of the Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin said that if the Russian Defense Ministry does not support the assault detachments, the situation near #Bakhmut may change drastically. According to him, the AFU is planning a counteroffensive in the #Soledar direction.

🔻Is it possible?

The situation of the Ukrainian grouping in and around Bakhmut is becoming increasingly critical. The main exits, through which an organized retreat is possible, are under full fire control of the Russian forces.

The National Guard and Territorial Defense units near the market, lower and upper parks, as well as the Tsvetmet plant, are caught in a semi-enclosure; it will be difficult for them to get out without heavy losses.

For the past few months, the AFU command has been transferring the most combat-ready units from various directions to reinforce the front near Bakhmut. However, the loss of Soledar completely undid these efforts: the Wagner PMC soldiers conducted a successful operation in the shortest possible time, encircling and destroying a large group of the enemy in the city.

After that, the initiative in the area completely passed to the Russian troops, and the AFU were forced to retreat to active defense. Even now, with huge losses, Ukrainian units continue to remain in the city.

🔻Why won't the AFU leave Bakhmut?

One of the tasks of the Wagner PMC was to pull in and defeat combat-ready enemy units. The Wagner PMC soldiers managed to do this; now in the city there are separate units of eight different brigades of the Ukrainian Army, Air Assault Forces, National Guard, and Special Operations Forces, as well as units of the Territorial Defense of Ukraine.

They are scattered forces with broken coordination, lack of communication and practically zero supply.

Some units have already returned from re-manning, like the 93rd Mechanized Brigade. However, most brigades – 53rd, 54th, 60th, 61st Mechanized Brigades and 56th Mechanized Infantry Brigade – are withdrawn to restore combat readiness and re-manning due to heavy losses.

🔻Why would the AFU hold the city at this price?

➖Bakhmut has an important symbolic meaning. Its loss immediately after Soledar would seriously affect the reputation of the AFU in the media and in the political arena.

➖ Maintaining the garrison makes it possible to slow down the further advance of the Wagner PMC units. While Russian troops are breaking through the AFU defenses, Kyiv is preparing new brigades for the spring campaign, including in the Bakhmut area.

🔻Is the enemy´s counteroffensive possible?

The AFU is preparing a second line of defense (Slovyansk - Kramatorsk - Kostyantynivka – Toretsk) and moving reinforcements with reserves. There are now at least 12 brigades concentrated at this line, as well as in Siversk (not counting Territorial Defense units), including the newly created 47th and 67th Mechanized Brigades.

Some units have already taken part in the battles for Bakhmut. These include the 17th Tank Brigade and the 28th Mechanized Brigade, as well as paratroopers from the 80th and 95th Air Assault Brigades, which are suffering heavy losses in the second line of defense.

🔻What can happen next?

In the absence of unified coordinated actions of the PMC and the Russian Defense Ministry, it will become increasingly difficult to hold the flanks against the AFU’s attacks.

North of Toretsk, units of the 28th Brigade and 5th Brigade, which had not actually been involved in active combat since the beginning of the battles for Kurdyumivka and Maiorsk, were being reinforced and regaining strength. In the event of a counterattack south of Bakhmut, they may also be thrown into combat.

For sure, the AFU’s position in Bakhmut is precarious, but delay or interdepartmental squabbles only play into the hands of the enemy. Victory is forged only through joint efforts.

An important warning from the best military commander in Donbass to the Moscow clown show. The Commander's warning comes on the heels of Oleg Tsarev's advice to the clowns to supply arms to people's defense units in border areas of Russia, which the clowns have also failed to implement. If RF military failed to stop a small DRG force from entering and terrorizing a town in Russia, what can or will they do if there is a major offensive aimed, not at Donbass, but at Russia itself? The recent comment by Seymore Hersh comes to mind - "They can't be that stupid." I agree. The multiple abject failures by Russia's military "leaders" cannot be explained by mere stupidity. It is something else...

Words of Wisdom and Warning from Commander Khodakovsky -

"Now there is such a concentration of discussions and forecasts on the topic of forcing the Dnieper, which includes the supply by the West of means for building pontoon crossings, and the drainage of the Dnieper by Ukraine, in fact, that I am more and more inclined to think that the main blow will fall in another direction. I do not want to raise the level of anxiety, but I would make an effort to secure the borders of Russia - all of a sudden, those who are especially presumptuous will want to jump over the ribbon to create a stir."
