US Should Pay Compensation

Editors Note: The wind has changed direction. The high-level voices within the political class are now turning their attention to the real culprits of the Covid Scamdemic, and that is the Biden clique. The timing of the change is significant, as they are facing a huge backlash from the world faced with the cataclysm consequences of their policies across the full spectrum, economic, military, gender craziness, environmental lunacy, etc. May this be a harbinger of the defeat of the “Washington consensus” elite.

Damage caused by Covid-19 to countries globally should be covered by Washington if the US bioresearch origin claim is confirmed, the Duma speaker Volodin says.

The US may owe the world huge compensation for the damage caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, Vyacheslav Volodin, the speaker of the Russian State Duma, said on Wednesday. He cited remarks made by the chair of The Lancet commission on the disease, who suggested the SARS-CoV-2 virus may have originated from an American research program.

Speaking in Madrid last month, economist Jeffrey Sachs called the current situation “a mess” and blamed diminishing American leadership for it, identifying the pandemic as one of the US failures. He said he was convinced that the virus “came out of US lab biotechnology” as opposed to evolving naturally, citing his experience with the authoritative British medical magazine.

Volodin asserted that the US government would not comment on Sachs’ remarks because President Joe Biden is “afraid that the world will know the truth about the true culprit of the pandemic.”

He added that the suffering of millions of people who contracted the virus, including the many who passed away, and the economic crisis caused by the pandemic were the US’ responsibility. “The US must compensate the damage to all nations affected,” he demanded.

The Russian official added that the US should “stop and declassify” its “military bioweapons research,” referring to the chain of biolabs scattered across the world that receive funding from the Pentagon’s Defense Threat Reduction Agency. The US says they are used to detect emerging pathogens, but some countries, including Russia and China, believe they may be used for clandestine military research.

Sachs himself called his remark “provocative” and lamented that the theory “is not being investigated, not in the United States, not anywhere,” despite evidence that warrants such a probe. “They don’t want to look underneath the rug too much,” he said.

The theory that Covid-19 started as a leak from a Chinese lab in Wuhan was popularized by the US government under President Donald Trump, who stated that Beijing should pay compensation for its supposed guilt. The Chinese government and Trump’s political opponents at home angrily rejected the idea. Major US tech companies even suppressed the lab leak theory as “disinformation” on their online platforms.

The censorship was reversed under President Joe Biden’s administration, which accused Beijing of failing to subject its microbiology research to international scrutiny.

Covid-19 may have originated in US biolab – Lancet chair

Jeffrey Sachs, who chairs Covid-19 commission at the prestigious medical journal, has claimed the deadly virus did not come out of nature.

Covid-19 did not come from nature but rather was an accidental release “out of US lab biotechnology”, world-renowned economist and author Jeffrey Sachs has claimed. He was speaking at a conference hosted by the think tank GATE Center, in Spain, in mid-June.

While introducing this “provocative statement,” Sachs suggested that he was in the loop, as he chairs the Covid-19 commission at prestigious medical journal The Lancet.

So it’s a blunder, in my view, of biotech, not an accident of a natural spillover,” he reiterated.

The academic noted that while “we don’t know for sure” if this is the case, there is “enough evidence” pointing to this, which “should be looked into.” Sachs lamented that this version is, however, “not being investigated, not in the United States, not anywhere.

Back in May, Sachs, along with Columbia University professor of molecular pharmacology and therapeutics Neil Harrison, penned an article in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, suggesting Covid-19 had originated in a laboratory. In the paper, the two academics called for greater transparency on the part of US federal agencies and universities, arguing that a lot of pertinent evidence was not disclosed.

Virus databases, biological samples, viral sequences, email communications, and laboratory notebooks could all help shed light on the pandemic origin, according to Sachs and Harrison. However, none of these materials had been subjected to “independent, transparent, and scientific scrutiny,” they argued.

As an indicator that Covid 19 had originated from a laboratory, the authors brought up the fact that a sequence of eight amino acids on a critical part of the virus’s spike protein is similar to an amino acid sequence found in cells that line human airways.

Soros, the Quintessential Evil Defeated

Billionaire wants a Democrat landslide to defeat “far-right extremist” Supreme Court and Trump

The US Supreme Court and Donald Trump’s Republican Party represent a greater threat to the US than Russia and China and must be defeated by any means necessary, Democrat mega-donor George Soros said in an op-ed published on the Fourth of July.

Soros, 91, has previously called for regime change in China and a quick victory over Russia. In his latest syndicated opinion piece, he called them “repressive regimes” that “want to impose an autocratic form of government on the world.” However, he argued, a far greater threat to the US comes from the “domestic enemies of democracy,” which include “the current Supreme Court, which is dominated by far-right extremists, and Donald Trump’s Republican Party,” which put them there.

Echoing President Joe Biden, Soros denounced the court for last month’s Dobbs ruling, which overturned the 1973 Roe v. Wade precedent when it came to abortions. He said the logic of the ruling endangers other rights recognized under the Fourteenth Amendment, “among them the right to contraception, same-sex marriage, and LGBTQ rights” but possibly even inter-racial marriage.

“It is also clear that this Court intends to mount a frontal attack on the executive branch,” Soros argued, pointing to the rulings regarding the authority of the Environmental Protection Agency, gun ownership, and redistricting. The common denominator in the court’s recent verdicts is to “support causes promoted by Trump’s Republican Party and weaken or outlaw causes favored by the Democratic Party,” he insisted.

The Dobbs ruling is “part of a carefully laid plan to turn the US into a repressive regime,” Soros wrote, and the only way to stop them is to “throw the Republican Party out of office in a landslide,” Soros argued. Democrats currently control the White House and both chambers of Congress.

Republicans “attack our system of democracy from every angle,” Soros wrote, accusing the party of having “stacked” both the Supreme Court and many lower courts with “extremist judges” and passing laws that “make voting very difficult” and “make subversion of the electoral system easier” at state level.

The “survival of democracy in the US is gravely endangered,” Soros concluded, adding that “we must do everything we can to prevent that,”including reaching out to some Republicans that voted for Trump but reject his “big lie” about there being irregularities in the 2020 election. This, he argued, was about “reestablishing a functioning two-party political system which is at the core of American democracy.”

The Hungarian-born billionaire has invested millions in helping Democrat causes, from the upcoming national midterm elections to district attorney races in key jurisdictions.

🇺🇸 🇨🇳 🇷🇺 The US demands that China stop “broadcasting Russian propaganda”

Beijing should stop blaming the conflict on Western countries and broadcast Russian propaganda in this way, US Ambassador to China Nicholas Burns said.

“I hope that representatives of the Chinese Foreign Ministry will stop accusing NATO of unleashing the conflict. This is Russian propaganda,” the diplomat said.

He also demanded that Beijing stop spreading “false claims” about US biological weapons laboratories, which “actually do not exist in Ukraine.”

At the World Peace Forum in Beijing, the ambassadors of the US,France and UK called the conflict in Ukraine “the biggest threat to the world order.”

“The fact that Russia crossed the border without provocation is a direct violation of the UN Charter,” Burns said.

In response, Russian Ambassador to China Andrey Denisov said that five years of NATO expansion had become a provocation for Russia and spoke about “my country’s extraordinary efforts to promote the Minsk agreements.”

🇨🇳🇺🇸Your 823 military bases have occupied the whole world-Chinese Ambassador to the United States Qin Gang

“We have carefully studied the new concept of NATO, in which China is indirectly designated as a potential threat for the next 10 years. Let me give you some numbers and ask a question. China has only one overseas military base. According to official data, the United States has 823 military bases around the world. When we look at the map, you can really imagine that the whole world is occupied by your bases, but you don’t consider yourself a threat. Who is the real threat coming from?”

We Have Six Months Left

by Dr. Vernon Coleman MB ChB DSc

In April 2022, I made a video in which I predicted that we had eight months of freedom left.

I stand by the timing.

We now have six months left – and that takes us until Christmas 2022.

I’m not suggesting that we’re all suddenly going to die by Christmas.

What I am suggesting (and this is in some ways scarier) is that things are now moving so fast that unless we stand up and defend ourselves we will be too far along the road towards an existence built around the principles of social credit; too far along to stop progress towards the Great Reset.

Everywhere you look there is evidence showing just how fast the conspirators are making progress.

First, look at the global economy.

We are all heading not just for a recession but for a deep, long depression that will rival anything that took place in the 1930s.

Barbados, Lebanon and Sri Lanka have all gone bankrupt. As, of course, has Argentina. Government corruption (enjoyed by politicians and bureaucrats) is largely responsible. Just look at the corruption in the UK, for example.

Things are so bad in Sri Lanka (long independent for food supplies) that farmers can no longer afford to buy seeds. The country is begging for food.

In 2020, the global debt was $220 trillion. It has now risen to $300 trillion – that’s three and a half times global GDP.

Governments everywhere are going to have push up interest rates to try to keep inflation down. And when they do that the cost of servicing all that debt is going to bankrupt millions, destroy thousands of companies and put nations in peril. No country on earth is immune. Both the UK and the USA could go into default. Services are going to have to be cut. Pensions and other payments will have to be halted.

Spending on health and education will be slashed as more and more money goes on buying bombs for the Ukraine war. The cost of rebuilding Ukraine will probably be close to a trillion dollars. Taxpayers are going to be expected to find the money – most of which will doubtless be stolen. And, as I predicted many weeks ago, western governments are preparing for war with Russia. NATO is preparing for war. And the head of the British armed forces says we must be ready for war. The only people who will gain will be the arms companies.

Everywhere you look there is economic chaos.

In China they are talking of maintaining absurd zero covid policies for five years while they tighten up the social credit rules. Mass testing will continue and travel curbs will become tougher for those whose social credit scores are low.

It’s been deliberately created. But it’s still chaos. Pakistan and Argentina have borrowed huge amounts of money from the International Monetary Fund. Neither will ever pay back their debts. The IMF holds huge debts and effectively controls many countries – on its way to a role in the new World Government.

The same things are happening everywhere in the world. Is that a coincidence? Of course it isn’t. It’s all deliberate.

What no one mentions is that when economies crash the number of people dying always soars. People cannot afford to eat properly and nor can they afford to keep warm. Undertakers and florists are the only businesses which can expect boom times ahead.

Local councils are heading for bankruptcy. Services are going to be cut – or slashed to protect those massive pensions paid to former chief executives and other overpaid staff. Your local library may close. Swimming pools and leisure centres are for the chop. How long will bin collections continue? How long will schools stay open? Jobs will have to be cut.

The collapse of the stock market is threatening pensions everywhere. Stock markets are already about where they were in the 1990s. If the markets crash still further then the value of pensions will also fall. Very few people are aware just how precarious their futures are.

As the cost of food and fuel and heating soars so there will be more and more strikes. Doctors want a 30% rise. A strike or a massive pay rise will destroy what’s left of the failed NHS.

Health care is no longer available in the UK.

Even before there was talk of strikes, doctors were resigning en masse in their 50s. Why? Because they can no longer cope with the regulations and red tape introduced by the Government and the General Medical Council. The GMC’s hated revalidation scheme is utter lunacy. Doctors spend so much of their time on form filling that they have little or no time left for patients. They find no joy in their work.

Dentists are retiring early too because of the red tape. Dentists work all day pulling and filling teeth and then routinely have to work another two or three hours filling in forms to satisfy the bureaucrats.

Meanwhile, the UK is rudderless, effectively without a government, and everything is crumbling.

Would anyone deny that our transport systems are a mess?

There is constant talk among millennial liberals of a four day week and the importance of work-life balance. But someone has to be prepared to work if the country is to be made to work. And most under 40s have no idea just how close we are to the edge of a cliff. There are nearly 1.5 million vacant jobs in the UK. And over five million people at home on benefits which the country cannot afford.

Farms everywhere are struggling with new regulations. Young people don’t want to work on farms because the work is too hard. In the UK, the average age for farmers is 59. The average hill farmer grossed £15,000 last year. They’d have been better off on benefits. An astonishing four million European farms have shut in recent years – encouraged by EU regulations designed to destroy farming and make the way for laboratory food.

It’s not surprising that food shortages are coming very fast. Within the EU there is already talk of food rationing. Food and fuel rationing are inevitable. And they’ll be controlled by an App. Electricity supplies will be controlled with the smart meters so many idiots have in their homes.

Cash is being demonised and many shops now refuse to accept cash. Citizens are forced to do everything via an App. Schools are introducing social credit points schemes to control students. We are only a few months away from a society which will be just as oppressive as China’s.

And the media lies and suppression of the truth continues.

I have been banned from all mainstream media for two and a half years now. As I explained the other day, I was even silenced when I tried to appear on internet radio. I have a website. But for how long before that is taken down?

I cannot see any of it because I’m banned from accessing all social media but I hear that social media is now full of fake news (controlled by governments and secret services), hate speech (put there by governments and secret services), extremism (put there by governments and secret services), trolling (organised by governments and secret services) and bullying (run by governments and secret services. The big search engines and internet sites belong to the conspirators just as much as the mainstream media.

Too many people accept it all without a murmur.

The collective silence will be our undoing.

They are picking us off one at a time.

I estimate that we’ve got six months of freedom left unless we fight this war with more determination.

And if you think I’m exaggerating look back over the last two years. I’ve predicted everything that has happened. My old videos are still available (for the moment) on this website.

Look at a few of the old videos and you’ll soon see why I am the most banned doctor in the world.

The truth is the one thing the conspirators fear. To them the truth is as deadly as sunshine and garlic are to vampires.

Pro-Vaccine Masses Who Survived COVID Injections Targeted for Monkeypox Vaccines as Depopulation Plans Advance

by Brian Shilhavy

The vaccine industry is committing suicide.

It was announced this week that the CDC has ordered 1.6 million doses of Bavarian Nordic’s smallpox and monkeypox vaccines to be injected into people during the second half of 2022, starting with 56,000 doses immediately, another 240,000 doses in the coming weeks, then another 750,000 doses over the rest of the summer with another 500,000 doses in the fall.

With the carnage that has just occurred for the past 18 months where 7,478,300 people were killed and 583,023,500 people were injured by experimental COVID shots in the U.S. and Europe, who in the world would fall for the lies of Big Pharma and their crony politicians again, and sign up to get these shots?

Certainly not the anti-vaxxers, and certainly not those who were foolish enough to get the COVID shots, were injured by them, and then woke up to the fact that they were lied to and hence suffered tremendously.

No, these shots are obviously targeting those who survived the COVID shots, believed the shots somehow conferred benefit on them since they are still alive and breathing, and trust the medical tyrants to cure their fear of the fake monkeypox pandemic which has not even really started yet.

Most of them are probably suffering some kind of skin infection that was probably produced as a side effect from the COVID shots, such as shingles, and they will be led to believe they have some dreaded new form of monkeypox that needs another vaccine.

This is vaccine marketing suicide, as they are killing off and crippling the vaccine cult members, and destroying their repeat business. Obviously reducing the world’s population is a worthy goal in their minds, so much so they are sacrificing the future of the vaccine business model by destroying their future customers.

Amid monkeypox outbreak, US officials plan to release 1.6M doses of Bavarian Nordic’s Jynneos vaccine

by Eric Sagonowsky
FiercePharma

As a monkeypox outbreak quietly gains steam in the U.S. and elsewhere, American health officials are laying out a plan to stop it. One major component is vaccinations.

Tuesday, officials with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) revealed a plan to make available 1.6 million doses of Bavarian Nordic’s smallpox and monkeypox vaccine Jynneos by the end of the year, according to press reports. Of that total, officials will immediately make available 56,000 doses in areas of high transmission.

They’ll follow that release with another 240,000 doses in the coming weeks, then with another 750,000 doses over the rest of the summer, USA Today reports. The officials plan to release another 500,000 doses in the fall, taking the total supply to around 1.6 million doses.

The doses are intended for people with known exposures to the virus or those who are at high risk. At a briefing, CDC official Jennifer McQuiston said that intimate or sexual contact appears to be a “primary driver for transmission,” as quoted by USA Today.

Officials say people should get vaccinated if they have had a sexual partner diagnosed with the illness. Men who have sex with men—and who have had multiple partners in areas of high transmission—should seek vaccination as well, officials said.

Bavarian Nordic’s Jynneos vaccine has been in high demand for more than a month since monkeypox cases started cropping up in Europe and North America. In the U.S., the vaccine won approval in 2019 to prevent smallpox and monkeypox in people determined to be at high risk.

Outside of the U.S., Bavarian Nordic in mid-May inked a vaccine order with an unnamed European country. After that order, the company has twice lifted its 2022 revenue forecast after more orders came in.

Also on Tuesday, CDC officials said they’re starting up a Emergency Operations Center to respond to the monkeypox outbreak. The center will be staffed by 300 people.

Carbon Dioxide Concentrations in Jurassic — Five Times Today’s Levels.

by Kirkland Kurevlev via Sputnik

Before they became the planet’s dominant terrestrial vertebrates in the Jurassic period, non-avian dinosaurs were in the shadow of their reptilian relatives – archosaurs – which really reigned on a single supercontinent of Pangea and after its split until 201.3 million years ago, when the mass extinction event ended the period.

A new study published in the journal Science Advances challenges the notion that dinosaurs preferred the heat in the early stages of their evolution.

It offers the first real proof that Triassic dinosaur species, at the time a small group confined mostly to the polar areas, often experienced freezing temperatures there. According to the research, dinosaur footprints and peculiar rock shards that could only have been left behind by ice are the unmistakable signs of said find.

The international team authors argued cold snaps that were already occurring at the poles moved to lower latitudes during the mass extinction, eradicating the coldblooded reptiles. Because they were already adapted, dinosaurs escaped the evolutionary bottleneck and expanded to rule the earth for the next 130 million years.

“Dinosaurs were there during the Triassic under the radar all the time,” Paul Olsen, a geologist at Columbia University’s Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, and lead author of the study, is quoted in the Phys.org report as saying. “The key to their eventual dominance was very simple. They were fundamentally cold-adapted animals. When it got cold everywhere, they were ready, and other animals weren’t.”

The research was based on recent excavations in northwest China’s Junggar Basin, a desolate desert.

Dinosaurs are believed to have initially evolved during the Triassic Period, some 231 million years ago, in temperate southern latitudes, when the majority of the planet’s surface was united together in a single enormous continent Pangea.

By around 214 million years ago, they had reached the far north, according to the scientists. The more extensive tropical and subtropical regions between were dominated by reptiles, including crocodile relatives and other terrifying animals, until the great extinction about 202 million years ago.

Temperatures during the Triassic period had likely been high due to atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations as the majority of the Jurassic ranged at or over 2,000 parts per million, which is five times today’s levels.

Polar ice caps were not present during that era, and excavations have revealed that polar regions once supported deciduous trees. Even with all that much CO2, the high latitudes might have been chilly at times since they would have had little sunlight for a large portion of the year and temperatures would have dropped at least periodically.

But until recently, no one has shown any tangible evidence that they froze, and that is where the new research brings some change to the theory.

Death of Pangean World & New Beginning for Dinosaurs

Over three-quarters of all terrestrial and marine species on the planet, including all large reptiles and corals, went extinct at the end of the Triassic Period during a geologically brief period of perhaps a million years. Some burrowing species, such as turtles, as well as a few early mammals, survived. Although it is unknown exactly what occurred, many experts believe it was caused by a succession of enormous volcanic eruptions that may have lasted for hundreds of years at a time.

Around this period, Pangea began to fragment, creating what has become the Atlantic Ocean and dividing the modern-day Americas from Europe, Africa and Asia. The eruptions would have, among other things, caused atmospheric carbon dioxide to soar above its already high levels, spiking temperatures on land and making ocean waters too acidic for many organisms to thrive.

A third element is mentioned by the study’s authors. The strongest phases of the eruptions would have released sulfur aerosols that reflected so much sunlight that they repeatedly generated worldwide volcanic winters that outweighed high greenhouse gas concentrations. Even the tropics might have experienced prolonged freezing conditions during these winters, which could have lasted a decade or longer.

According to the research, this killed uninsulated reptiles while allowing cold-adapted, insulated dinosaurs to survive.

Fine-grained sandstone and siltstone deposits from ancient lake bottoms in the Junggar Basin became the researchers’ primary source of evidence. The late Triassic Period, the mass extinction, and other events all caused the sediments to form some 206 million years ago.

The basin was located at roughly 71 degrees north, high above the Arctic Circle, at that time, before landmasses began to reorganize themselves, as they do throughout the entire history of our planet. Dinosaurs were present along shorelines, as evidenced by the authors’ and others’ discovery of dinosaur footprints. The researchers discovered pebbles up to 1.5 centimeters in diameter among the typically fine sediments in the lakes itself.

As the pebbles had no business being there since they were far from any visible beach, it was determined they were ice-rafted debris, or IRD for short, and that was the only possible explanation for their existence, the authors argued.

In a nutshell, IRD is produced when ice forms against a coastal landmass and absorbs pieces of subsurface rock. The ice eventually breaks free and flows into the nearby water body. The rocks fall to the bottom and mix with the typical fine sediments as it melts.

In the oceans, where it is carried by glacial icebergs, ancient IRD has been extensively investigated by geologists, but lakebed research has been sparse, and the Junggar Basin discovery reportedly fills this gap. According to the scientists, the pebbles were probably gathered during the winter when lake waters along pebbly shorelines froze. When the weather warmed up again, pieces of the ice drifted away while carrying samples of the pebbles, where they later dumped them.

“This shows that these areas froze regularly, and the dinosaurs did just fine,” the research’s co-author Dennis Kent said, per Phys.org.

And it seems that how the dinosaurs succeeded in such harsh conditions no longer causes any doubts among the vast majority of paleontologists.

Since the 1990s, there has been mounting proof that many, if not all, non-avian dinosaurs, including tyrannosaurs, had primitive feathers. Some coverings may have served as mating displays if not for flying, but the researchers claim that insulation was their primary function. There is strong evidence that many dinosaurs had warm-blooded, high-metabolism systems, in contrast to the cold-blooded reptiles. In cold climates, dinosaurs would have benefited from both characteristics.

“Severe wintery episodes during volcanic eruptions may have brought freezing temperatures to the tropics, which is where many of the extinctions of big, naked, unfeathered vertebrates seem to have occurred,” Kent explained. “Whereas our fine feathered friends acclimated to colder temperatures in higher latitudes did OK.”

According to the researchers comments on their study, they would like to see more researchers hunting for fossils in once polar regions like the Junggar Basin, in order to better comprehend this time period.

“The fossil record is very bad, and no one is prospecting,” Olsen said. “These rocks are gray and black, and it is much harder to prospect [for fossils] in these strata. Most paleontologists are attracted to the late Jurassic, where it’s known there are many big skeletons to be had. The paleo-Arctic is basically ignored.”

Canadian Police – Don’t Miss It

James Topp marched from Vancouver to the national war memorial to protest vaccine mandates. Fearing the scary truckers again, Ottawa shut down streets and brought in a heavy police presence. 

A woman brought a megaphone along. The police tried to take it away from her, and a scuffle ensued. This was the response.

Yes, but what’s even more disturbing, is the visitors. PM Trudeau, President Macron, PM Boris Johnson, all the NATO bigwigs.

That’s how the conversion to a new religion was always done, from the top down. Now, all the feeble minded see and get the epiphany, like the immaculate birth, the resurrection of the dead, any damn possible absurdity.

The Scuttling of Peace in Europe

by Thierry Meyssan

While the Anglo-Saxons have already succeeded in excluding Russia from the Council of Europe and are preparing to prevent it from participating in OSCE meetings, they are working to sink the European Union by creating a competing structure in Central Europe: the Three Seas Initiative. In doing so, they are taking up an old Polish project aimed at developing this region while preserving it from any German or Russian influence.

The Three Seas Initiative (Intermarium) summit in Riga, June 20, 2022.

The Council of Heads of State and Government of the European Union decided on January 23, 2022, to grant Ukraine the status of a country applying for membership. The president of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said that it will take a long time (Turkey has had this status for 23 years) to bring the country up to the level required by the Union, both in economic and political terms.

The office of the Ukrainian president had already specified that Kiev does not hope to join the Union, today or tomorrow, because it has another project, but that the status of candidate opens the way to strong financial support from Brussels to get closer to the standards of the Union.

Indeed, Ukraine shares the Polish project of Intermarium: an alliance of all states located between the Baltic and Black Seas.

The member states of the Three Seas Initiative (in dark blue).

INTERMARIUM VERSUS EUROPEAN UNION

This project is based both on a geographical reality and on a historical past: the “Republic of Two Nations” (Crown of Poland and Grand Duchy of Lithuania) from the 16th to the 18th century. It was first formulated during the Polish revolution of 1830 by Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski, and then during the interwar period by Polish General Józef Piłsudski, under the name “Międzymorze Federation”. At the same time, Piłsudski conceived an ideology aimed at liberating all the peoples of Central Europe from their integration into the Germanic and especially Russian empires, “Prometheism.” Like a Titan, he promised men technical progress that would allow them to free themselves from their overlords. In practice, he preferred the Germans to the Russians and did not hesitate to ally himself with the Austro-Hungarians and the Germans against the Tsar. In 2016, a third version of this project was presented by the Polish president, Andrzej Duda, under the name “Three Seas Initiative” (the third sea is the Adriatic). Eleven states participated. They have been twelve for a few days.

Józef Piłsudski’s Promethean project gave a place to a multitude of ethnicities while his era was one of mono-ethnic states and scientific racism. He created a journal in Paris to defend it, but failed.

In principle, this project offered a legitimate political response to the lack of physical borders in the great plain of Central Europe: better to unite than to submit or to wage war. However, things are not as clear-cut as they seem: the Republic of Two Nations was a confederation allowing the Kingdom and the Grand Duchy to each keep their own functioning, while Piłsudski imagined a Federation in which each people would merge and in which the Poles would hold the upper hand. All nationalist movements in Central Europe refer to the Republic of Two Nations, but they draw quite different conclusions from it.

For the Ukrainian Banderists, the Republic of Two Nations is the heir to Ruthenia created by the Swedish Vikings, the Varegues, which is a bit far-fetched since their territories do not overlap. The most that can be said is that, culturally, these entities have points in common. For the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenski, the Republic of Two Nations is a good example of a confederation that makes it possible to free oneself from both Russia… and Germany, which dominates the European Union.

It is because the Polish and Ukrainian political leaders are banking on this common project of an Intermarium confederation that President Zelensky was able to consider without blushing to cede Eastern Galicia to Poland [1]. However, in both countries, the extreme right (in the totalitarian sense of the interwar period) intended to use this policy to advance its racial ideas.

Poland has never played the game of the European Union, of which it has been a member since 2004. During its candidacy for the Union, it did not hesitate to take huge sums of money intended to reform its agriculture and to spend them on buying American warplanes and waging war in Iraq on Washington’s orders. This sleight of hand was imagined by the Polish-American Zbigniew Brzezinski and the French-American Christine Lagarde [2]. Nothing has changed: today Warsaw is in perpetual dispute with Brussels, notably over its judicial system. Ukraine will have no trouble playing the same double game.

This is the main problem of the peoples of Central Europe: they rightly seek to assert themselves without their large Russian and German neighbors, but they are unable to do so without fighting against them. in the past, this pathology has always led them to confront each other.

In 2017, U.S. President Donald Trump attended the Three Seas Initiative summit in Warsaw. Poland is often described as the US “Trojan horse” in the European Union. It is also the key to the US presence in Central Europe.

Prince Adam Jerzy Czartoryski ended his life in exile in Paris, and General Piłsudski set up the headquarters of his Promethean movement also in Paris. In both cases, it was a matter of fleeing both Germany and Russia. The memory of this period gave rise in 1945 to the creation of a network of Central European émigrés working first for the Vatican and then for the French secret service and finally for the Anglo-Saxons (a network also called Intermarium [3]). It brought together the main fugitive leaders of the Croatian Ustasha, the Romanian Iron Guard, etc. Then, in 1991, the “Visegrád Group” (Hungary, Poland, Czech Republic and Slovakia) was formed. Today the supporters of this project are turning to the Anglo-Saxons, hence the support of Washington and London to Warsaw and Kiev. Thus, the summit of the Three Seas Initiative, in Warsaw in 2017, received U.S. President Donald Trump. While at the summit on June 20, 2022, the Ukrainian president, Volodymyr Zelenski, intervening by video, requested and immediately obtained the membership of his country.

The Anglo-Saxon interest in the Intermarium project is long-standing. One of the fathers of Anglo-Saxon geopolitics, Sir Halford Mackinder, identified Central Europe as the heart (Hartland) of Eurasia. For him, the British Empire could only control the world by first controlling this region. One of his disciples, Prime Minister Boris Johnson, therefore rushed to Kiev to support President Zelensky. All Anglo-Saxon geopoliticians have taken up Mackinder’s ideas, including of course Zbigniew Brzezinski, who, along with the Straussian Paul Wolfowitz, was one of the two main figures at the Washington conference in 2000, which marked the alliance between the United States and Ukraine [4].

In 1983, President Reagan received the Anti-Communist Bloc of Nations (ABN) on the occasion of Captive Nations Week. He shook hands with Yaroslav Stetsko, the Nazi-imposed Prime Minister of Ukraine and former right-hand man of Stepan Bandera.

Unfortunately, those who are pushing the United States to support the Intermarium project are representative figures of far-right nationalism. For example, the advisors to Presidents Dwight Eisenhower and Ronald Reagan who pushed them to adopt the concept of “captive nations (of the USSR)” were all former collaborators of the Nazis, members of the Anti-Bolshevik Bloc of Nations [5]; the organizers of the aforementioned congress in 2000 were their children; and the most important of them is the US-Polish Marek Jan Chodakiewicz, who is constantly downplaying the crimes of the Nazis [6].

All members of the Three Seas Initiative are members of the EU, except Ukraine. Most of them spontaneously consider it to be much more important than the EU, although it does not have the same means. The fact that Ukraine joined three days before its EU candidate status was recognized not only attests to the fact that it is more important to it, but also that Brussels has understood that it must accept all members of the Three Seas Initiative in order not to lose any.

In the long run, this logic should lead the members of the Three Seas Initiative to collectively leave the EU when it is no longer financially beneficial to them, as they have never shared its political objectives.

Already, the entire security architecture of the continent is being called into question. It was based on two pillars, the Council of Europe and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe.

The last meeting of the Committee of Ministers of the Council of Europe, without the participation of Russia.

RUSSIA PUSHED OUT OF THE COUNCIL OF EUROPE

The Council of Europe was established in 1949. For some founders, it was a question of basing European unity on common legal principles via a council of states, and for others, via an assembly of parliamentarians. In the end, both projects were brought together, but at the time the Soviets and their sister countries were kept out. The USSR and the members of the Warsaw Pact joined just after the fall of the Berlin Wall.

This Council has two flagship institutions. First, the European Court of Human Rights (ECHR). Unfortunately, the Court has become politicized in recent months, showing an obvious bias towards Russia. For example, in January it recognized the right of a Russian citizen to spit on the official portrait of the President of the Russian Federation (Karuyev v. Russia). In February 2022, it recognized the right of a Russian citizen to disrupt a pro-Putin demonstration by displaying a sign reading “Putin is better than Hitler” (Manannikov v. Russia). And it has just censured the Russian law that was adopted after the color revolutions requiring foreign-funded political organizations to display it on all their publications (Ecodefence and others v. Russia).

The other major institution was the Venice Commission, which helped the newly independent states to assimilate democratic rules – a Commission which, incidentally, has constantly warned Ukraine about its administrative and institutional procedures [7].

In the end, the West suspended Russia’s right to vote in the Council of Europe on the grounds that it would try to annex Ukraine by force. Russia was astonished and replied that it had never intended to do so and that it was withdrawing from an institution that had become partisan.

Like UN staff, OSCE officials can now be spies.

RUSSIA PREVENTED FROM PARTICIPATING IN OSCE MEETINGS

The other intergovernmental platform is the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE). It was created in 1973 during the Helsinki Accords. Unlike the United Nations, it is not a place of arbitration, but just a forum that allows all the actors of the continent to talk freely. For example, it adopted the Istanbul Declaration of 1999, also known as the “Charter for Security in Europe”, which sets out two major principles: (1) the right of each state to choose the allies of its choice and (2) the duty not to threaten the security of others by ensuring its own security; principles whose non-observance is at the origin of the conflict between the United States and Russia [8].

It should be remembered that the Russian Federation has never challenged the right of anyone to join NATO, but the right of NATO members to host US military bases. Our readers will remember that when Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov wrote to each of his “partners” asking how he could reconcile the two Istanbul principles with the installation of US military equipment and personnel in the vicinity of Russia, none of them dared to answer him.

However, the neutrality of this forum was violated in April when new OSCE officials, more precisely former Nato soldiers, were caught spying in the Donbass [9].

As if this were not enough, the United Kingdom has just refused the necessary visas to the Russian delegation that was to attend the annual OSCE parliamentary assembly from July 2 to 6, 2022 in Birmingham. London, which is in violation of its obligations, took shelter behind the European Union’s nominal sanctions against each member of the delegation.

As a result, not only are the documents signed by the 57 OSCE heads of state and government worthless, but the administration of this organization has become a weapon of war, and ultimately it will no longer play its role as a forum.

The security architecture of the European continent is thus being radically transformed. Eventually, Central Europe will form a bloc, first within the European Union and its candidates, then outside the Union. Its defense will be guaranteed by the United States. While the two parts of the continent, West and East, will no longer speak to each other. This will be the outcome of the plan of Anglo-Saxon geopoliticians. But this project, if it is realized, will be unstable. First of all, Western Europeans have always needed Russia, and secondly, the peoples of Central Europe have long lived on a battlefield. When the Teutonic knights and the Cossacks did not come to fight in their own country, they fought among themselves. For a lasting peace, it is necessary to respect all the protagonists. By destroying all the security institutions of the continent, we make a generalized conflict inevitable.

Ukraine – The Bear Caught The Kraken By Using This Trick

via Moon of Alabama

This is the map that shows the historic development of Ukraine.

Russia is, in my opinion, aiming at taking the pink and yellow parts which have predominantly Russian speaking populations. The most north- western pink oblast is Kharkov which is also the name of the oblast’s main city.

On March 1 the city was already under attack.

There were a number of artillery impacts (red dots) on military targets in and around the city.

But the situation soon stagnated. The current mayor or Kharkov Igor Terekhov was on the side of the Zelenski regime. The rowdy soccer fans of the city’s main club had formed the original Azov regiment. A militia group that split from them at the start of the war were the Kraken:

The Kraken unit was formed by Azov Battalion veterans on the day Russian President Vladimir Putin launched a full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February, a military spokesman said. That makes the Krakens something like a kid brother to the older Azov unit, whose fighters achieved world renown status last month for their epic last stand inside Azovstal, a sprawling steel complex in the port city of Mariupol.Like the Azov fighters, whose name comes from the Sea of Azov, the regiment’s name and insignia evoke a different maritime theme: the kraken, a mythical sea monster resembling a giant squid.

Their commander is Konstantin V. Nemichev, a political and military figure in Kharkiv. The son of a schoolteacher and an electrician, Nemichev, 26, launched a political career in the right-wing National Corps party before he graduated from college, including an unsuccessful bid last year to become Kharkiv’s mayor. He drew heavily on the support of rowdy young soccer fans, many of whom now serve in his unit.

The Kraken unit operates somewhat in a gray zone — a force that answers to the Defense Ministry but is not part of Ukraine’s armed forces. Soldiers in Ruska Lozova say the unit has about 1,800 soldiers. The military spokesman declined to say how many serve in the unit.

The Kraken follow, like Azov, a fascist ideology. The mayor and the Kraken units had prepared for fighting within and around the city. They had fortified areas and took positions in houses that faced the Russian lines.

The Russian attackers did not want to destroy the city and its Russian inhabitants. They never were ordered to launch an all out attack. Over several months the positions on either side hardly changed. This is the map of the situation on May 1.

The western side of the map the Russian held territory had been given up after the move on Kiev had been reversed. On the eastern side they had gained the area around Iizum. But the fighting around Kharkov had continued for more than two months with nearly unchanged lines.

Then something curious happened. In an orderly move the Russian forces around Kharkov began to pull back. Here are the positions on May 15.

The Ukrainian military and the Kraken felt victorious. They had ‘defeated’ the enemy. They left their prepared positions in and around the city to pursued the Russian forces which continued to move back. They did not smell the trap.

Here is the situation on May 31.

karkiv20220531-s.jpg

The defenders of Kharkov were now in small towns or the open country side. Since the end of May the map showed few changes but daily heavy bombardment of Ukrainian units.

On June 5 Stars & Stripes reported:

The Kraken unit — which in recent weeks has helped take back villages north of Kharkiv — filled its ranks with “gym rats,” bouncers and “ultras,” the professional soccer fans who sometimes showed their love for Kharkiv’s Metalist team with riotous behavior.

But their unit also draws veterans from the regular army, battle-tested paramilitary fighters from Donbas and other volunteers who range in age from 25 to 60.

By the time the Kraken unit liberated this suburban village of about 5,000 people at the end of April, many had fled. Maleev estimated Tuesday that only 200 or so remained in what amounted to a newly liberated ghost town. Few here even stepped outside as Ukrainian and Russian forces continued to trade mortar fire.Much of the village has also been damaged or destroyed, including the Church of St. Nicholas, the village council building and a small hospital. Elsewhere, a tidy row of beehives stood in a field near houses whose heavy wooden roof beams had been snapped and charred.

The report mentioned that there were several Russian drones in the air above the unit. The soldiers hide from them. It is not the only one that has been drawn out of Kharkov city and received such treatment.

Since the end of May Russian artillery as well as aerial bombing has been raining down on them day by day. It achieved the desired results. The Ukrainian militia had significant losses.

On June 26 the Russian Defense Ministry mentioned the Kraken in its daily report:

Attack launched by Russian artillery near Pitomnik (Kharkov region) has resulted in the elimination of up to 100 militants from Kraken Nazi group and about 10 units of combat equipment. Commanders of the militants have decided to abandon the positions and to withdraw the rest of this unit to Kharkov.

High-precision attacks launched by Russian Aerospace Forces have resulted in the elimination of 4 command posts, including those of Kharkov-1 and Kharkov-2 Territorial Defence battalions near Kharkov, as well as a training base of mercenaries deployed near Nikolayev.

Some 100 dead and four command post on one day is quite a bit. But those were not the only attacks that day and the campaign ran for over 30 days. President Putin’s order to ‘demilitarize’ and ‘denazify’ the Ukraine gets executed well.

Here is the situation on June 30.

karkiv20220630-s.jpg

After a full month of such artillery preparations, which heavily diminished the units that originally had been protecting Kharkov, the Russians are again on the move.

The person who runs the excellent Military Summary And Analysis channel reported today(vid) that today several towns on the Kharkov frontline had been retaken by the Russians. (That is not yet reflected in the pro-Ukrainian LiveUAmap we both are using here.) He painted arrows on the map that show the future Russian movements he anticipates to happen.

karkiv20220701-s.jpg

It is another pincer move on Kharkov. A third arrow could probably be pointed from the Izium area southeast of Kharkov which the Russians have under their control.

The Russian trick to catch the kraken has worked. For more than two month they had been trying to take Kharkov without destroying it. The fortified positions in and around the city had made that impossible.

The controlled move back to the border area drew the defenders of Kharkov out into open fields where the Russian artillery then had a full month time to hunt them down. Now, as the enemy has been decimated, the Russian move towards Kharkov can be renewed.
