And here are the photos of the "Kredmash" road machinery plant in Kremenchug that was destroyed by yesterday's missile attack.

Attention. Translated from Ukrainian channel:

Yes, everything is very
controversial in Kremenchuk.
The SBU gave permission, and even Ze himself publishes the results of the missile strike and the fire.
Yes, they hit the plant and the Amstor shopping and entertainment center was carried out by a blast wave (it makes no sense to talk about safety during construction, everything was built for kickbacks), yes there were people in the shopping and entertainment centre (it could be both the tenants of the shopping pavilions themselves and the employees of the shopping centre, perhaps there were visitors .

Why was the Russian Federation hit during the day and why now, right before the NATO summit, and not at night? Perhaps they are also interested in getting new models of Western weapons to Ukraine?
Perhaps they have hit at the time of the working process at the plant in order to destroy not only equipment, but also manpower?

The only thing that can be said for sure! Zelensky and the OP will try to get the most out of this case in order to use it both domestically and on the external front.

Forwarded from DD Geopolitics (Donbass Devushka)
Ukrainian sources are using a picture of American porn star and model Billy Herrington, as a “Russian casualty” in Donbass. Not only they claimed he is a casualty, but they also made a whole story about how he was killed trying to save a tank crewman after his tank was destroyed.

Beavis and Butthead learn about White Privilege.

This is not our usual topic.... But maybe that is why Ukrainean refugees are so "popular" in Europe.

The first Scottish independense referendum was branded "once in a lifetime" - I am still alive, and the second one is coming.
Should we blame Putin for it? If BoJo would not have disclosed himself as a hopeless infantile arrogant idiot that would not have happened (so soon).

Certainly, GB can adapt the methods of a Special Military Operation to sort out Scotland, though they probably have invented it long time before and have originally implemented in Ireland.

Sturgeon confirms plans for 'consultative referendum' and sets date of 19 October 2023
Nicola Sturgeon confirms the independence referendum would be consultative - meaning legislation would have to be passed before Scotland becomes independent.

Much like the Brexit referendum in 2016, a majority "yes" vote would not immediately make Scotland independent.

The legislation would have to be passed by both the UK and Scottish parliaments.

A new Bill will be published at Holyrood for the consultative vote, with a proposal for the referendum to be held on 19 October 2023.

The question asked will be the same as in the 2014 vote: "Should Scotland be an independent country?"

The first minister says she has asked Scotland's top law officer to ask the Supreme Court if the Scottish government has the power to legislate for the consultative referendum.

However, she says if the Supreme Court decides it does not then this would not be "the end of the matter, far from it".

Stoltenberg - on the prospects for Sweden and Finland to join NATO: We hope to make progress in the accession of Finland and Sweden. Of course, in order to be able to defend ourselves in a more dangerous world, we need to invest more in our security.

Erdogan: We can't say yes to Finland and Sweden's NATO membership. Then NATO will not be a security organization, but will become a place where there will be many representatives of terrorists. Turkey cannot believe the statements of these countries that they will not support terrorist organizations. We cannot say “yes”, let them not be offended!

Lavrov on NATO's intention to declare Russia a threat at the opening summit: Long ago, before any NATO summit was convened, Russia was declared an enemy. In one way or another, but Russia was declared an enemy. Moreover, if you listen to the statements of Western politicians, it has been declared an enemy, simply because it does not want to agree with the neoliberal world order, which the United States, having subjugated the entire Western world without exception, is imposing on everyone else under the slogan of a world order based on rules. We have spoken about this many times, showing the dead end of such a policy of the West, led by Washington. Therefore, this is not surprising for us, and it will not bring anything new to the policy of the United States and its satellites.

Macron: Russia cannot and should not win. Our support for Ukraine and our sanctions against Russia will continue for as long as necessary, and with the necessary intensity, over the coming weeks and months.
I think that one can applaud the courage of the Ukrainian president, the Ukrainians and their army. As far as the goal of the end of the year is concerned, 4 months of the war have passed, the end of the year is still far away. But no one will sign that the war will end in the coming weeks or a month. I really hope that this will happen by the end of the year. With confidence that Russia cannot and should not win. Now it is clear: the only goal of Russia's aggression directed at Ukraine is to reduce the territory of Ukraine.
Therefore, we will continue sanctions, we will continue to support Ukraine and its people in order to achieve a complete victory for Ukraine and negotiations at a time and on the terms that the Ukrainians themselves choose.

“There can be no peace deal with Putin”: The Times bluntly writes that there should not even be a thought of peace talks with Russia. You need to fight to the bitter end or until Ukraine can do it.

“The growing feeling in Europe that the war must end as soon as possible is wrong and will be a betrayal of Ukraine. I was in Paris last week and was struck by the fury with which some of the leading figures in the French elite argued that Ukraine would soon need to make peace with Russia. Whereas in the UK our united wisdom is that the democratic world needs a clear defeat for the intruders in Ukraine.”

US Congressman Mike Quigley - to the question "What will Ukraine's victory in this war look like?": Putin does not receive anything. Ukraine remains united and integral, receives a share from the property confiscated by the West, from Russia itself and its oligarchs. NATO is getting stronger and more united. NATO is expanding and entering into several security agreements with Ukraine.

From a reliable source:

What else can be said about the tactics of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. They are trying to protect the professional military personnel with human shields of reservists by plantings them along the roads, among the settlements.

As familiar scouts told me, during the assault on the a village, such a barrier has let in the "armour"(tanks), but when the infantry came, they opened fire on it from small arms literally from every window of the village. The infantry had to roll back, and subsequently the artillery literally burned that square. Those few from the "barrier" who survived, threw down their weapons and tried to leave, having changed into civilian clothes. This was then told by the captured to the scouts themselves. They had no option to retreat from their positions - they would simply be shot by their own. The task of such a living barrier from the men recruited from the streets of Ukrainian cities is simply to detain our troops and give them the opportunity to work out their artillery.

I remember something similar in Syria on campaigns against ISIS and al-Nusra (both organizations are banned in the Russian Federation). Whether it was an advance in the desert or a battle for some settlement, after the assault, government forces always expected the appearance of a "jihad-mobile" with a suicide bomber at the wheel. Often such a vehicle was camouflaged in advance, sometimes letting the troops go forward, and sometimes the Arab "kamikaze" tried to swoop into the area of an unattached unit. And, unfortunately, not always he could be met by an ATGM or tank. I lost several of my friends because of such attacks. The terrorists conducted reconnaissance from a drone and corrected the route of the infernal machine, simultaneously filming all this for their propaganda stories. There, in the east, a "cult of death" was created. Those who prepared the "kamikaze" had to que to explode themselves. That is, the terrorist was still living, maybe he was working, doing something there in general. But in fact he was already "in the country of eternal hunting." When it was his turn, he was contacted and he went on his last journey in a car loaded with tons of explosives. It is absolutely clear that the brainwashing factory worked effectively there, especially for ISIS.

In Ukraine, of course, the scale and specifics are different. Here, instead of the "jihad-mobile", artillery inflicts damage on the attackers, and they try to tie them down with "cannon fodder". But the task is absolutely identical in its essence. Yes, and brainwashing as religious fanatics is not necessary. If a bitter hangover sets in after a cocktail of Ukrainian propaganda, the fear of being shot by a "blocking detachment" simply works.

Without many words. This video shows the dynamics of price changes in the United States from January 2020 to May 2022. There is nothing to add here.

For anyone who has the nerve to tell me that we need to pay for water have a read, at first I thought this was funny....
Then I realised the awful truth of it. Be sure to read all the way to the end! Think bin taxes need to be added in too.

Tax his land,
Tax his bed,
Tax the table
At which he's fed.

Tax his work,
Tax his pay,
He works for peanuts
Anyway!

Tax his cow,
Tax his goat,
Tax his pants,
Tax his coat.

Tax his tobacco,
Tax his drink,
Tax him if he
Tries to think.

Tax his car,
Tax his gas,
Find other ways
To tax his ass.

Tax all he has
Then let him know
That you won't be done
Till he has no dough.

When he screams and hollers;
Then tax him some more,
Tax him till
He's good and sore.

Then tax his coffin,
Tax his grave,
Tax the sod in
Which he's laid.

When he's gone,
Do not relax,
It's time to apply
The inheritance tax.

STILL THINK THIS IS FUNNY?

Not one of these taxes existed 100 years ago, & our nation was one of the most prosperous in the world... We had absolutely no national debt, had a large middle class,a huge manufacturing base, and Mum stayed home to raise the kids.

What in the Hell happened? Could it be the lying parasitic politicians wasting our money?
Oh, and don't forget the relatively new bank charges....
And we all know what we think of Bankers.

The well-known Russian writer, former deputy battalion commander of the DPR Army, Zakhar Prilepin, talks about how collective Europe will throw Ukrainians into the dustbin of history, having played enough, as has happened before.

“The fact that the ‘principled position’ of Erdogan, who for some time did not allow the Swedes and Finns to join NATO, is just trade and nothing more — immediately, from the very first minute he began to say all this, it was written here, and in other places: it was clear to all sane people that Erdogan was a cunning fox.

And so the Swedes and Finns surrendered the Kurds to Erdogan.

But they courted the Kurds for years, opened their representative offices, had budgets for them and spent them generously. The Kurds, like naïve children, felt needed and protected.

Now we need to talk not so much about Erdogan, everything is clear with him, but to tirelessly remind:

Europe has no subjectivity. It doesn't respect itself. The Finnish and Swedish political leaders were told from the USA: “Do as you are told, betray who needs to be betrayed, make a decision without taking into account the opinion of your own, and even more so of foreign peoples,” and they did everything.

It looks disgusting, but for us there is good news here.

Europe forgets and betrays everyone. There were Kurds as freedom fighters - and there are no Kurds, they are fed to Erdogan.

The day before yesterday, Europe believed that nature knows nothing better than the Chechen people and Chechen resistance. Now they have forgotten about it forever.

Yesterday they believed that the Venezuelans were on the way to an early liberation from despotism. Now they are even bored to remember it.

The day after tomorrow they will also be disappointed in the Ukrainians and betray them.

“You didn’t want to die for your freedom, all of you without exception - why should we feel sorry for you?”

And then they will start grimacing around some next small people, bringing this people a mess, shame, betrayal and death.
