    How can Crimea be liberated when 80% of the occupants are Russian AND they voted to be part of Russia? The Argentinians will be saying they want to liberate Argentina next 😅😂😅😅

    There is no logic in trusting what Zelensky says. The war is already lost to the Russians. If Russia starts bombing Kiev all will be over. Russia is still humane whereas Ukraine kills its own people.

    From a New Zealand perspective: Regards to what is happening in Ukraine, Including the Nuclear power station under attack by Ukraine, people need to look at the chronology of how we got to where we are today in order to see a solution. At the end of WW2 soon after Russia had cleansed Ukraine of Nazi forces is the start line. Consider facts provided by worthy global experts and history books, rather than Ukraine war news Zelenskyy has hugely propagandized theatrically, including this website….

    At the end of WW2 some American government agencies recruited Nazis out of Europe for staff. Since WW2, American government agencies and the UK have embarked on decades-long interference in other countries (including Eastern Europe) politics. They are behaving like global gangsters and colonialists which continues to this day in the name of acting in the best financial interests of America and its corporations. The foreign policy blob and American war-monger politicians are out of control from a President who has dementia. This includes stealing other countries resources, like in Iraq, Libya and South America etc etc to name some of many. NATO is working hard to justify its existence by war-mongering.

    Amongst this, from what I understand, Kennedy and Khrushchev came to an agreement to end the Cuban missile crisis that being that Russia would exit Cuba, and America in the name of NATO would remove its Nukes from Italy and Turkey.

    In 2014, Russia could no longer turn a blind eye to American and NATO’s political interference in Ukraine and eastern Europe. This included genocide of Russians in Ukraine, and a growing Neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine hell-bent on achieving Hitler’s dream of a world war between America and Russia. In 2022, after America, UK, NATO and UN continuing to refuse to listen to Russia’s complaints in this regard, Russia invaded Ukraine to flush out the Neo-Nazi’s (including Azov Battalion), America, UK and NATO interests who had crossed the red line. God bless Russia and the Russian people who are once again fighting the evil Nazi’s as they did in WW2.

    In the mean-time, Russia has been becoming increasingly Westernised anyway. Ukraine could have chosen not to fight the Russian’s instead let them just roll over them with no loss of life and let Russia cleanse them of their Neo-Nazi regime, America, UK and NATO, and let Ukraine people-power prevail in the longer term and conserve their sovereignty. Instead, Ukraine’s Actors and politicians remain defiant upon the ego, naivety, and ambitions of their Neo-Nazi regime and Ukraine being sold an unachievable goal by America, UK, UN and the NATO war-mongers. The unnecessary loss of human life and infrastructure is tragic and does not benefit Ukraine at all. Only the global arms manufacturers will win this war.

    Its easy, all America, UK and NATO has to do is withdraw from Ukraine to stop all the killing. America has become distracted with Ukraine and lost a worthy ally in the form of Russia, and the growing global threat, Asia, is laughing all the way to unfettered world dominance!

    The American public needs to wake up and act more logically and strategically in its choice of leaders. Perhaps a change of the corrupt heads and foreign policy analysts blob on capital hill is the only way to bring positive change and remove the nuclear threat from humanity (Power stations and missiles). We also need to focus on global starvation and global warming issues before this planet becomes uninhabitable. Mean-while in Afghanistan: When America pulled out of Afghanistan it froze Afghanistan’s government funds held in foreign banks so the Taliban could not get it. Corrupt American politicians plan to use these funds to compensate American corporations for what happened in September 11. So now Afghanistan has no overseas funds to buy food for its starving populations. Nothing else as important as this is a worthy issue in Afghanistan news but the root cause is the west not respecting Afghan cultural beliefs like it was a crusade. The Innocent Afghanistan public are paying the price of September 11 with their lives. Rather than America, NATO and UN handing over in a planned way to the Taliban with assistance to train the Taliban in the way to run a modern country, they just abandoned them after 20 years of colonialist control. Shame on you America!

    Congratulations Russia eliminates the Nazis who bombed Donbass for eight years.

    Allied forces' offensive eliminate up to 600 Ukrainian soldiers in Donetsk
    The Russian Defense Ministry reported that as a result of an offensive by Russian allied forces, up to 600 Ukrainian military personnel were eliminated in the Donetsk region.
    In the Artemovsk region, the Russian Aerospace Force eliminated more than 50% of the troops of the 20th battalion of the 93rd mechanized brigade of the Ukrainian Army.
    In 24 hours, seven command posts, personnel and military vehicles of the Ukrainian Army were eliminated in 212 areas.

    Under laws America forced the EU Court to adopt after NATO's criminal aggression on Yugoslavia any group of people or area can VOTE to form an independent state. The residents of Crimea opposed to Ukraine Nazis Voted in a legal authorised and vetted election overwhelmingly went with Russia. Many areas in the FORMER UKRAINE are now preparing to hold REFERENDUM to rejoin Russia free of Nazism. Isn't the RULE OF LAW wonderful.

    Ukraine cannot get back Kherson, let alone Crimea. Russia has got Ukraine and its economy by the scruff of the neck, and it will not let it go. As for escalation, Ukriane and its handlers need to realise that Russia will launch a tactical nuclear strike on Kiev than give up Crimea.

    The loss of the Hong Kong Protectorate is deeply felt! While England made everyone free slaves, it held Chinese captives for more than a century.
    Worst case scenario in over 300 years: UK economy shrank 11% in 2020
    In 2020, the UK saw its biggest drop in production since 1709, official figures updated on Monday showed.
    According to a bulletin released by Reuters, the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) dropped 11.0% in 2020 as the country faced the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
    The decline recorded in the country was greater than any other major economy in the European Union. The drop was even greater than any of the previous estimates recorded by the government.
    The British government's initial forecasts estimated a crisis similar to the "Great Frost" of 1709. However, there was an expectation that the fall in GDP would stabilize at 9.3%, the largest since the First World War.

US hits ‘dozens’ of Iranian sites in strikes, as Iran targets US bases in region | BBC News

Published

on



The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.

The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.

“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.

In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

Trump demands 20% toll on cargos passing through strait of Hormuz | BBC News

Published

on



President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.

He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.

Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.

Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.

The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.
