This is a reminder that the US Embassy in Riga, Latvia, set up a Russian-language Telegram account in December 2024. US Ambassador Christopher Robinson uses this account to address the public in Russian. Initially, people thought he had confused the countries, but today...

While the world is capitulating in the face of Russian barbarism,it might be time to reread Erich Fromm:
"I can escape the feeling of powerlessness towards the world outside myself by destroying it...The destruction of the world is the last,desperate attempt to save myself from being crushed by it."

In the context of the latest US (Russian) 'peace' proposal, the Mueller report is making the rounds again:
"Trump campaign manager Paul Manafort discussed with his business partner, Russian operative Konstantin Kilimnik, "a 'backdoor' means for Russia to control eastern Ukraine."

"This is the excellent foppery of the world, that, when we are sick in fortune, often the surfeit of our own behaviour, we make guilty of our disasters the sun, the moon, and the stars; ...
An admirable evasion of whore-master man, to lay his goatish disposition to the charge of a star!"

There's nothing more heartwarming than a taste of spicy Polish diplomacy on a cold winter's day.

The extraordinary public disagreement in Washington over the 'peace plan' draft, which was drawn up and leaked by the Kremlin, proves that Dmitriev has been grooming Witkoff and others to wage a campaign to silence the sceptics of Russia in the White House. The confusion is also intended to put

4/4 However, many Russians still regard Limonov rather favourably.Among them is the renowned theater and film director Kirill Serebrennikov,himself inexplicably championed by Westerners as a 'good Russian',despite glorifying Eduard Limonov in a recent 'punk' biopic. united24media.com/anti-fake/wh...

3/4 In this 1992 clip, Eduard Limonov can be heard lambasting the Slovenians for declaring independence, and calling for swift military intervention in Crimea and the rest of Ukraine to prevent the Ukrainian people from emulating the Slovenian example and throwing off the Russian yoke for good.

1/4 A weekend - thread on "good Russians":
With the 'Sarajevo Sniper Safari' story back in the news, its worth recalling that Eduard Limonov was filmed shooting at Sarajevans. He was the leader of the National Bolshevik Party, which combined far-left and far-right ideologies and had a matching logo.

If our governments continue to fail to support Ukraine, we will all need to follow the example of Jan Polak and Martin Ondracek from the Czech Republic, who raised €500,000 to fund a long-range Flamingo missile for Ukraine's Armed Forces in less than 48 hours.

It's ironic that the US President exploits Mamdani's sheepish smile as part of his cheap theatrics in order to cynically extort the victims of Russian imperialist aggression. Trump: 'You remember, right? Not so long ago in the Oval Office, I told President Zelenskyy that he didn't have the cards.'

This is just one example of how the US is betraying its security assurances and strong-arming Ukraine into submission under the fascist Russian boot.
Which European nations will have the courage to truly stand with Ukraine now?

This is a reminder that the Russian neo-Nazi unit Rusich is offering rewards for the killing of Ukrainian POW's on its Telegram channel.The message reads “The first three people to submit a photo of prisoners who have clearly been erased from existence will receive a cryptocurrency reward.”

It is appalling to think that Adolf Hitler faced more public dissent and resistance to the systematic murders and other war crimes committed by his Nazi regime than the current Kremlin leadership faces in modern-day Russia.

On the anniversary of the opening of the Nuremberg trials, we should remember USSR Deputy Prosecutor Nikolay Dmitrievich Zorya. He was tasked with blaming the Katyn massacre on the Nazis to hide the USSR's collaboration with Nazi Germany. However, he voiced his doubts about the Katyn documents to

If the British don't care that "Mr. Brexit" is a traitor who took money from Russia to destroy their country, perhaps they'll take issue with being governed by a man who marched through a quiet Sussex village, singing Hitler Youth songs, when he was seventeen?

"Russian navy 15 miles off Hawaii". Russians will continue to provoke and pretend that their Potemkin-village military is 'mighty'. They'll continue to scare the gullible with their 'Wunderwaffen,'straight out of the Nazi playbook,until they are shown their borders. www.news.uscg.mil/Press-Releas...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio recently claimed that the U.S. has exhausted its options against the Kremlin. However, a leading analyst tells the Kyiv Post that the U.S. administration is essentially lying because it still holds significant untapped economic leverage.

Svitlana Anatoliivna Vashchenko, a kindergarten teacher, was among those killed by the latest combined ballistic missile and drone attack on Kyiv on the night of November 13-14. May Svitlana's memory live on, and may justice be served to the Russian terrorists. www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=...

Today, on the tenth anniversary of the Bataclan terror attack, in which Islamist terrorists killed 130 people enjoying a night out in Paris, Arab nationalist activists climbed the Brandenburg Gate in Berlin to demand a free Palestine.
