Crimea: 'Donbass Republics Joining Russia Marks a 'Point of No Return'

Tonight, and a few more days after, Russia is going to celebrate. After that, it is going to wage war. It will be ugly, it will be brutal. Lots of territories need to be returned. Then, the mission of denazification and demilitarization of Ukraine will continue. Russia can't allow such an aggressive, animal, and barbaric ( remember the boiled head!!!) neighbor to be allowed to walk freely. Russia also has one dilemma. Will it bring down Europe or not? Will it shut down oil and gas? Kremlin strategists certainly are thinking in this direction. That's why they constantly say " we have time". I was always wondering myself are they gonna do it? More effective than any nuclear weapon. Actually, more brutally. In the first case, everything is over in a blink of an eye. In the second, it will be a slow, painful torment. Russia knows that it has a small number of friends in the "Old continent". They are not even neutral anymore but openly hostile. That gloomy, remotely, unknown giant in the East was always the source of European fear. This time, maybe they are right.

While I am no "Russia whisperer," years of observation and personal experience have taught me one thing about the Russian mentality: the timeline between them being provoked and reacting is NOT a linear function.

Unlike Americans, who tend to be guided by emotions and react almost immediately to every stimulus (both of which, I would argue, have been weaponized by political bad actors), the Russian government and Russians in general tend to be more deliberate — at first. Repeated "poking" and prodding, however, rapidly lowers the reaction time until it seems like they're lashing out at the slightest provocation and completely out of proportion. Thing is, the response isn't based on just the latest stimulus, but the cumulative pattern of those that came before.

This is very difficult to grasp for people who basically live in the now and have little to no long-term memory or understanding (whether organically or as a result of conditioning, doesn't matter). Then again, I suspect most Russians also have a hard time fully comprehending the impulsiveness of the West, filtering it — as most people do — through the lens of their own behavior.

In my opinion, this more than anything helps explain the near-total disconnect between Russia and the Globalist-American Empire.

The situation around the Nord Stream I and II pipelines is extremely suspicious for multiple reasons. And claiming that what happened with Nord Stream-I and II would be in no ones interests, Blinken is dissembling. The only party benefiting from the NS-I and NS-II pipelines damage is the US.

The economic crisis in Europe is already forcing companies and corporations to consider relocation to the US, which is providing a better business environment and more or less adequate electricity bills. The ones in Europe are causing bankruptcies of companies and enterprises and heart-attacks of their owners.

And after the NS-I and NS-II destruction, the economic situation will deteriorate significantly. Even though the NS-II was not launched, there was a chance of its launch, and this «chance» was considered on the market. And the collapse of the NS-I tourbines was not fatal. Now Europe is doomed. 

The economic destruction of Europe makes it absolutely dependent on the US economically, politically, and militarily, turning it into a powerless shadow satellite of the US with no political will and independence. And Europe will become almost completely dependent on US gas. 

The transformation of the EU into a kind of banana republic has already started. The worst news for the people is that this banana republic is unlucky to be in the north of northern hemisphere and winter is coming.

After the words of the former Polish Minister of foreign affairs (especially taking into account his background) expressing gratitude to the US for the NS destruction, there’s almost no reason to go into details pointing out that the US is really likely behind the attack. 

Nonetheless, there are some facts about the NS sabotage:

1. Reuters reported that Swedish seismologists believe that the second explosion at Nord Stream was equivalent in power to an explosion of more than 100 kg of dynamite. 

2. Last week, the USS Kearsarge and USS Gunston Hall entered Gdynia. Yesterday (on the 26th), the USS Paul Ignatius entered the port for a few hours. (Leave the task force for a mission; pick it up after completing the task. Mission accomplished?)

3. On September 2, an American helicopter with the callsign FFAB123 was noticed manoeuvring in the area of the NS pipelines. According to the site ads-b.nl, six aircrafts used this callsign that day, of which the tail numbers of three were established. All of them are Sikorsky MH-60S. By overlaying the FFAB123 route on the scheme marking the areas of the explosions, we’ll see that the helicopter either flew along the Nord Stream-2 route, or even between the points at which the accident occurred. Meanwhile, on Twitter, there are screenshots of other American aircraft flights as of September 13th in exactly the same area. And finally, in June there was an article in the Sea Power, where the Americans boast of experiments in the field of underwater drones that they set up at the BALTOPS 22 exercises - just in the area of Bronholm Island.

No conspiracy theories. These are just bold facts.
In this week’s episode of the Great Game, we break down the real story behind the sabotage of Nord Stream 1 and 2 which will lead to thousands of deaths this winter and the accelerated shutdown of the already feeble trans-Atlantic economy.

We also address the strange connection between Ted Kaczynski (aka: The Unabomber) and the rise of eco-terrorism across the world which have a strange relationship with neocon unipolarists and transhumanists which may surprise you. https://canadianpatriot.org/2022/09/28/the-great-game-this-week-eco-terrorists-and-neocons-converge/

🎙 Foreign Ministry’s statement on the referendums in the DPR, LPR, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions

On September 23-27, the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, Kherson and Zaporozhye regions held referendums on their accession to the Russian Federation. The results of the voting have been tabulated, with the overwhelming majority of voters supporting unification with Russia – 99.23 percent in the DPR, 98.42 percent in the LPR, 93.11 percent in the Zaporozhye Region and 87.05 percent in the Kherson Region. The turnout was as follows: 97.5 percent in the DPR, 92.6 percent in the LPR, 85.4 in the Zaporozhye Region and 76.9 percent in the Kherson Region.

Despite the provocations of the Kiev regime that gave criminal orders to massively shell areas where civilians gather and civilian facilities, people were not afraid to come to the polls and express their will. The results of the plebiscite speak for themselves – the residents of Donbass, as well as the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions do not want to return to their former life. They have made a conscious and free choice in favour of Russia.

In fact, they had no alternative left. Far from all people in Ukraine acquiesced and accepted the coup in Kiev in February 2014 that brought to power radical nationalist forces that unleashed a bloody fight against those that would not accept it in the southeast of the country. The signing of the Minsk agreements approved by a UN Security Council resolution did not rescue the situation. As Ukrainian representatives are cynically saying now, Ukraine was never going to honour them from the very start and was preparing for war. For eight years, the population of Donbass was subjected to persistent and cynical attempts to destroy them. The decision of the residents of Donbass, the Kherson and Zaporozhye regions to seek protection from Russia was a natural result of the inhumane policy pursued by the Kiev regime.

The referendums took place in full conformity with the standards and principles of international law. The people of Donbass and the south of Ukraine exercised their lawful right to self-determination in accordance with the UN Charter, the 1966 international human rights covenants, the 1975 OCSE Helsinki Final Act, and the verdict of the UN International Court of Justice on Kosovo on July 22, 2010. The latter confirmed that the unilateral proclamation of independence by a part of a state does not violate any norms of international law.

International observers from Italy, Germany, Venezuela, Latvia and other countries (overall, 133 people) monitored the course of the referendums and recognised them as legitimate. We are grateful to foreign experts, bloggers, journalists and representatives of public organisations for their courage, integrity and objectivity.

In the near future, we will enter a critical stage in our joint efforts to translate into life the desire of the residents of the DPR, LPR, and the Zaporozhye and Kherson regions to be together with Russia.

Putin has made it so students don’t have to conscript, yet somehow Russians get accused of forcing people to sign up at “gun point”.

“Just a couple of grunts dragging a high school student to conscript in an army riddled with crime and corruption…

Guess the country!”

🇷🇺🇺🇸 Article by Russia's Ambassador to the US Anatoly Antonov in the The National Interest

CUBAN MISSILE CRISIS 2.0?

• The statements by certain politicians and the media that US-Russian relations are living through an unprecedented crisis may well be accepted. I have to remind the readers that all this is a result of the US policy.

• It feels like Russia is being tested to see how long it will remain patient and refrain from responding to blatantly adversarial actions and attacks.

• US officials continue to escalate the situation, intimidating the American and international public with sham Russian “nuclear threats”. Such rhetoric twists the statements by the Russian leadership.

• I would like to stress that there has been no change in the conditions when our country would use nuclear weapons. <...> We are not threatening anyone.

• But we confirm that, as President Putin said on September 21, Russia is ready to defend its sovereignty, territorial integrity and our people with all weapon systems we have.

What is so aggressive about this statement? What is unacceptable?

• I would like to add that certain American politicians are under a delusion if they think that our readiness to defend our territory does not apply to Crimea or to territories that may become part of Russia on the basis of a free expression of popular will.

☝️ I want to believe that, despite all the difficulties, we and the Americans have not yet approached a dangerous threshold of falling into the abyss of nuclear conflict. It is important to stop threatening us.
