«Батько Балахович»

Сегодня хотел бы отклониться от привычной темы и рассказать об интересной личности времен Гражданской войны- Станиславе Булак-Балаховиче, беларуском герое что боролся с коммунизмом в рядах армии Юденича,БНР и Польши , организаторе антибольшевисткого восстания на Слутчине, советнике Франко ,ветеране первой и Второй Мировой войны

Биография :
Родился воин 22 февраля 1883 года в населённом пункте Мейшты, под Браславом, в семье католиков польско-белорусского происхождения из малого аристократического рода (шляхты).

В 1914 году, с началом Великой войны, был призван в кавалерийские части и храбро показывал себя в бою с врагом, в результате чего получил множество медалей и знаков отличия, а также офицерский чин и влился на службу в отряд особой важности, в дальнейшем став командиром эскадрона в районе Риги.

После революций и упадка монархии подался к большевикам однако в скоре примкнул к белым и в дальнейшие 3 года Гражданской войны активно противостоял силам красной армии. Отряды «Бацьки» зарекомендовали себя как мобильные партизанские кавалерийские отряды способные осуществлять внезапные рейды и удары с контролируемым отходом .Бытует также мнение о их антиеврейских настроях и погромах данного населения.
С завершением Советско- польской войны проживал в Польской республики и занимался публицистической деятельностью. В 1939 принимал участие в обороне Варшавы а после оккупации действовал в подполье.10 мая 1940 года в возрасте 57 лет был убит немецким патрулем.


Мое мнение что игнорирование большинством беларусов значимого человека в истории их страны приложившего силы для создания независимого Беларуского Государства и уничтожения красной чумы есть неправильным . Впрочем советская пропаганда делает свое дело .

Today I would like to deviate from my usual topics and talk about an interesting figure from the times of the Civil War – Stanisław Bułak-Bałachowicz, a Belarusian hero who fought against communism in the ranks of Yudenich’s army, the Belarusian People’s Republic, and Poland, organizer of the anti-Bolshevik uprising in Slutsk, advisor to Franco, and veteran of both World War I and World War II.

Biography:
The warrior was born on February 22, 1883, in the village of Mejszty, near Braslaw, into a family of Polish-Belarusian Catholics from a small aristocratic lineage .

In 1914, at the outbreak of the Great War, he was drafted into cavalry units and distinguished himself bravely in battle against the enemy, earning numerous medals and honors, as well as an officer rank, and joined a unit of special importance, later becoming a squadron commander in the Riga area.

After the revolutions and the decline of the monarchy, he initially joined the Bolsheviks, but soon switched to the Whites and for the next three years of the Civil War actively resisted the Red Army.His units gained a reputation as mobile partisan cavalry forces capable of carrying out sudden raids and strikes with controlled retreats. There is also a belief regarding their anti-Jewish attitudes and pogroms against the local population.

After the Soviet-Polish War, he lived in the Polish Republic and engaged in journalistic activities.On May 10, 1940, at the age of 57, he was killed by a German patrol.


My opinion is that ignoring, by most Belarusians, such a significant figure in the history of their country—someone who contributed to the creation of an independent Belarusian state and fought against the Red plague—is wrong. However, Soviet propaganda has done its work.🚫😎

And, incidentally, a businessman is currently in charge of the most powerful country in the world. I guess this is why Rockefeller and Henry Kissinger invited Palantir’s chairman Peter Thiel into the steering committee of the Bilderberg group 20 years ago. His support for Trump would pave the way for the era of Techno Kings, and the release of files that effectively depose the old order, as well as the superfluous politicians (Trump will most likely be ousted inte the end as well). The real ring leaders won’t get exposed. They are to smart to be involved in those kind of activities.

And now the next part of the corporate takeover has been initiated. Donald Trump’s Board of Peace was unveiled at Davos at WEFs annual meeting with WEF-trustee Ajay Banga and former WEF-trustee Tony Blair on the executive board. The question is, will this new international organisation be a way to bypass the United Nations and set up the “emergency platform” that was proposed for the Pact, but rejected by a couple of Member States who did not want any interference in their domestic affairs? https://drjacobnordangard.substack.com/p/epstein-davos-can-really-replace

In 2013, the Slavonic Corps, a private military company of around 267 mercenaries organized into two companies (one of Kuban Cossacks and another of recruits from across Russia), deployed to Syria. Operating under the management of directors Vadim Gusev and Yevgeny Sidorov of the Moran Security Group, the corps was stationed at a former racecourse between Latakia and Tartus.

The operation was a covert initiative in a "gray zone" of state and private interests. While recruited under the pretext of a legal contract with the Syrian government—facilitated by Syrian Ambassador Riad Haddad—the fighters discovered they were effectively a private army for a local oligarch tasked with seizing the oil-rich town of Deir ez-Zor. The mission aimed to deflect attention from official Russian involvement, leveraging a Hong Kong shell company to bypass Russian laws.

The corps was poorly equipped with outdated weaponry, and its only combat operation in mid-October 2013 failed disastrously. Promised T-72 tanks were swapped for decrepit T-62s, and their infantry fighting vehicles were unusable. The unit instead advanced in improvised armored buses before the mission collapsed.

The operation served as a prototype for later Russian mercenary activities, with the GRU later adopting the model to form the Wagner Group. After the FSB arrested Vadim Gusev and Yevgeny Sidorov in late 2013 to maintain "plausible deniability," the personnel were re-organized: Yevgeny Sidorov: After serving his short sentence, he became the executive officer for PMC Redut, a group closely tied to both Timchenko and the GRU.

SAAB Military AI Strategy 2026

Marcus Wallenberg is a recurring attendee and steering committee member of the Bilderberg Meetings, a dedicated Internationalist. Records on Public Intelligence confirm his attendance in the most recent June 2025 Stockholm Meeting and multiple prior years (e.g., 2022, 2023). The Marianne and Marcus Wallenberg Foundation has funded intensive IT training programs at the KTH Royal Institute of Technology specifically designed to help non-EU migrants enter the Swedish tech market. The Wallenberg family represents five generations of "service to enterprise," controlling roughly one-third of Sweden's GDP through Investor AB. Their historical agenda is characterized by "liberal transformation" and foreign financing.

He operates as a primary bridge between the transnational banking sector (SEB) and the military-industrial complex (SAAB). Under Marcus Wallenberg’s leadership, SAAB has pivoted toward a "Solution-First" AI model for 2026, moving away from static hardware. Key pillars include:
— The "Swedish AI Factory" (Consortium Model): Wallenberg has partnered SAAB with NVIDIA, Ericsson, and AstraZeneca (yes, the vaccine manufacturer that gave football players heart attacks during COVID19) to build a sovereign AI supercomputer (using Grace Blackwell GB300 systems).
— Cross-Border PhD Integration: Through the WASP (Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems, and Software Program), SAAB is funding "knowledge-sharing across borders," specifically with Imperial College London, to decentralize AI R&D.
— Scalable Autonomous Capability: For 2026, SAAB is deploying AI across "edge nodes" (battlefield units) to cloud environments. This includes SIGINT (Signals Intelligence) ships and Autonomous Subsea Vehicles (like the Seaeye Lynx) capable of deep-sea surveillance. Wallenberg's AI strategy directly aligns with NATO’s 2026 technology standards.

"Iran is fighting American imperialism" — that's nonsense. Revolutionary Iran wanted the USA in Iran—Khomeini explained that he was not opposed to American interests in Iran, according to a 1980 CIA analysis titled Islam in Iran, which was partially released to the public in 2008. The embassy cable containing the full text of Khomeini's message remains classified.

An Islamic Iranian propaganda poster from January 1980 depicted Iran leading various Marxist terrorist groups in a world revolution. Among those featured were SWAPO, which attacked whites in Angola, and the ANC, which carried out bombings against whites in South Africa. This phenomenon is referred to as the Iranian Revolution (with "Revolution" capitalized in leftist texts), rather than being labeled a jihad, which most people fail to notice. While Iran is a terrorist state, the U.S. officially designated it as such in 1984. However, they allowed the regime to remain in power because it protected American interests.

Published in 1482, this map was authored by Ptolemaios Klaudios and Nicolaus Germanus, printed by Lienhart Hol in Ulm, Germany, based on the classical geography of Claudius Ptolemy. It is a bold woodcut masterpiece, an atlas printed north of the Alps, famously distinguished by its vibrant lapis lazuli blue seas. The map shows the East as "European Sarmatia" according to Herodotus’s ancient boundaries, stretching from the Vistula in the west to the Tanais (the ancient name that Herodotus used for the Don River) in the east. To the north, it depicts Gothia within a newly modernized Scandinavia and labels the Baltic Sea as the Oceanus Sarmaticus. Along these northern coasts, the Venedes (Wends) are clearly marked.
