Had another chat with Faina Savenkova yesterday. She’s a 14 year old girl living in Donbass who’s on the Ukrainian “hit list” Myrotvorets. She’s not famous, like Greta Thunberg. But she should be. She’s an incredible young woman If you’re not familiar with Myrotvorets it is an online database of “enemies of Ukraine.” It has links with the gov. It publishes the names and addresses of hundreds of children. And marks journalists as liquidated when they are killed. Faina is the only child on the list who is outspoken. The rest and their families, understandably don’t speak out due to fear of reprisals. Faina is a courageous young woman. She was put on the list because she campaigned for justice in Donbass. She was 12 at the time!
She recently wrote to @amnesty and the @UN. I have a lot of respect for both. But am disappointed they haven’t replied to her. AI recently criticised Ukraine and got hammered for it. Have they now been intimidated to not call out Ukrainian human rights abuses?
I could make a solid argument that a list, publishing the home addresses of children and promoting violence toward them, is the most serious human rights violation in Europe right now… is there much more extreme? and yet people are silent…
One of the reasons for silence, is that anyone who criticises Myrotvorets, in some kind of Kafkeresque nightmare, is themselves put on the list. Like myself and recently Canadian journalist Guy Boulliane.
The list exists to shut down any criticism of the Ukrainian government and extremist elements in the country. Numerous ‘Ukrainians’ have refused video interviews with me because they are on the list and they fear reprisals.
NATO and Ukraine have the power to shut the list down. But they don’t. Why? Because the extremist element in Ukraine is integral to their war against Russia. When a society says it’s ok to promote violence toward children… it opens a dark door that can be difficult to shut.
If this war is about European values, the list must be shut down. Extremism by its very character must be fought and not acquiesced. When a 14 year old girl, whose home address is published by extremists, speaks. And nothing is being done about. We need to listen.

Ukrainian Website Doxes Hundreds Of Children
The Ukrainian “Peacemaker” website, regarded by many as “Zelensky’s Hitlist,” has added hundreds of innocent children to their list of targets for liquidation. While the West falsely portrays the Ukrainian strongman as a fighter for freedom and democracy…

The more I communicate with people from Europe and the USA, the more I understand that the war is going on solely because of politicians and those who earn money from it. But the worst thing now is not even military actions, but the information blockade of Western governments that keep their peoples in the dark. Many people think that they are fighting with the "cursed Putin", but in fact they are dying for the interests of corporations in Europe and the United States. Nevertheless, people are slowly waking up. Our world will not survive a nuclear war, and I am glad that many people understand this. My American friend, anti-war activist and lawyer Den Kovalik sent "hello" to all my friends from Donbass. He believes that there can be peace and friendship between Russians and Americans. Thanks, Dan.
"OK, here's a song for all my friends from Donbass. You see me wearing a red pioneer tie, it has to do with the song. And I even have a poster on the wall with a Soviet flag, and I even have a guitar pick with symbols. It all has to do with this song. This song is about the friendship of the West and the east. About the friendship of the United States and the space formerly the former Soviet Union. It's an old Beatles song, I love it very much and I hope you do too."

Тулси Габбард: «Предсмертный хрип любой демократии — это когда действующий президент использует аппарат государственной безопасности, чтобы преследовать политических оппонентов и скрывать ложь и преступления, совершенные им самим или его семьей. Байден делает это сейчас. Его действия ясно дают понять, что он считает себя не проводником верховенства закона, а исключением из него».
