US cluster munitions will bring more pain and death to Donbass civilians, and Washington doesn’t care

Posted by: John Phoenix Kiev will use its newly received weapons to target residential areas, just as it has for the past nine years -by Eva K Bartlett August 1, 2023, RT.com The recent US decision to send cluster munitions to Ukraine is immoral, unethical, and criminal. We’ve already seen the horrific results of the use of such weapons – civilians mutilated and murdered (often decades later) in Iraq and Southeast Asia, for example, and in Lebanon. In addition to the ethical reasons not to send these weapons to Ukraine, there are pragmatic reasons why, from a military perspective. They are pointless for Ukraine, in spite of Western promises that they will “do more damage across a larger area than standard unitary artillery shells by releasing bom...

US in talks to send the Nazi entity air-defence systems to Ukraine

Posted by: John Phoenix If agreed, the deal “would mark a shift” in 'Israeli'-Russian relations, the paper has claimed FILE PHOTO: US and to Nazi army officers stand in front a US Patriot missile defence system. © AFP / Jack Guez The US, Israel and Ukraine are in discussions to deliver up to eight old Israeli Patriot air-defense systems to Kiev, the Financial Times has reported, citing people familiar with the negotiations. The deal, which has yet to be finalized, would likely see the Patriots first sent from Israel to the US, before being supplied to Ukraine, which is experiencing a shortage of air defenses in the conflict with Russia, the paper wrote on Thursday. Recent talks on the possible delivery of the US-made systems involved ministers and senior officials from ...

Why the Russia-US conflict will outlast the Ukraine crisis

Posted by: John Puonix Moscow must look at Washington as a long-term threat By Andrey Sushentsov, program director at the Valdai Club. ©  Andrea Nicolini / Getty Images The desire of the US to dominate and its refusal to see other countries as equals, willing and able to assume equal responsibility for peace and stability, is the short answer to the question of why Moscow-Washington relations cannot get out of the current state of crisis. This attitude also leads the US to the same difficulties in its relations with China, India and even some of its own allies, such as Turkey.  The Russian and Chinese position is buttressed by the principle that peace is the result of compromise between the major centers of power, and that without their mutual agreem...

Nazi entity and Ukraine – Nazi’s

Israel and Ukraine - Zionists and Nazis collide The extraordinary history of Zionist and Nazi collaboration VANESSA BEELEY Demonstrators gather at Habima Square in Tel Aviv on 20 March to attend a televised video address by Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky to the Israeli Knesset (AFP) Zionism has deep roots in Ukraine. Jews were a significant element in the settler colony of Odessa. Along with a range of non Jewish colonizers they settled on land from which Muslims and others had been expelled in the settlement around Khadjibey in 1794. Ukraine, especially Odessa, was a key locus of the rise of the Zionist movement in the twentieth century. The Revisionist leader Vladimir Jabotinsky hailed from Odessa. Zionist ambivalence about Ukrainian nationalism continu...

The advisors of former US President Donald Trump have prepared a plan to cut support for Ukraine if Kiev continues to refuse negotiations with Russia and if the billionaire wins this year’s presidential election.

Pentagon has ‘nothing to say’ about strike on Crimean beach with US-supplied weapons

Posted by: John Phoenix RT The Pentagon has refused to comment on the deadly Ukrainian cluster munition attack on a crowded beach in Sevastopol, Russia on Sunday, RIA Novosti has reported. The Ukrainian attack carried out with US-supplied ATACMS missiles killed at least four people, among them two children, and injured 151, according to local officials. Four missiles were intercepted by air defenses, while a fifth deviated from its trajectory and detonated its cluster warhead over the busy Black Sea beach, the Russian Defense Ministry said in a statement on Sunday. When RIA asked the Pentagon about the use of US supplied weapons in the strike on Sunday, an official replied, “we have seen the reports and have nothing to say.” Moscow has pla...

Reporters Without Borders Posted by: John Phoenix The non-profit group has cited surveillance and threats of forceful enlistment into the military faced by independent journalists FILE PHOTO. ©  Marcus Yam/Getty Images Independent media outlets are being subjected to growing pressure in Ukraine, Reporters Without Borders (RSF) has warned. The non-profit group urged the government in Kiev to combat impunity for violent crimes against reporters and to end arbitrary restrictions regarding coverage of the conflict with Russia. Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky signed a law in 2022 that significantly expanded the government’s media regulation powers, allowing for outlets to be temporarily banned. The legislation came under fire both domestically and in the We...

How the Chechen miracle kick-started the Russian ‘Path of Redemption’

I viewed my winter sojourn in Russia as an extension of the journey I began in May 2023, when I embarked on a mission of trying to discover the country's essence in a manner that could be made discernible to my fello...
