The many “great coming outs” triggered by the war in the Ukraine

Dear friends, For four weeks now we have been discussing the Russian special military operation in the Ukraine and most of what we looked at was happening either in the Ukraine proper or near it.  I did mention plenty of time that “this is not about the Ukraine, this is about the future collective security arrangement of Europe“, which is true.  But even that does not show the full picture. 

Ukrainian war map by the French military (March 19th) + summary

Of course, it shows things in a much more Ukrainian favorable light than any Russian map, because the French are also backing the Ukies and because the French don’t have the same access as Russians.  But, for contrast, here it is.  Let’s call it “here is what they officially admit to” :-) Andrei source: https://www.defense.gouv.fr/ukraine-point-situation and just to add to the picture, here is a machine translation of the summary

Boris Rozhin – detailed discussion of the situation in the Ukraine

Note by Andrei: Boris Alexandrovich Rozhin blogs under the alias Colonel Cassad.  He is based in Crimea and reports about the events in the Ukraine on a daily basis.  I don’t necessarily agree/endorse everything he said here (or elsewhere) and I don’t share his ideological views (he is a Communist).  In in the interview he just gave to a Russian outlet he gives a lot of interesting information.  So what

Movie about the Ukraine

A friend send me 4 links to a movie about the Ukraine.  Here are these links: I have decided to collate the four videos into one, then upload it to BitChute.  I hope that I did not mess something up (I don’t have the physical time to check). I assumed that YouTube would block the video sooner or later (they already placed a disclaimer on top of it), so making

Day 22 – where do we go from here? Two decisions

Dear friends, I think that three weeks into this special military operation we can take a few moments to pause and think about where we are and where we go from here. My first observation is this: there are, roughly, two main groups of people out there, those who “get it” and those who don’t.  In practical terms, this is what this means for me: when I write I am

Day 21 of the Russian special military operation – 3 questions

Today, I begin with this: something I would call a good summary of CNN’s wishful thinking This has everything! Putin is a “pure thug” Russians are indiscriminately murdering civilians en masse “Ex-KGB” “agent” says what his CIA handlers tell him to Klitschko is as verbally clever as he always is China is about to screw Russia over Drones threaten NATO (apparently including Ukie ones?) A retired colonel opines that Russia

What is Bergoglio up to?

Note by the Saker: to fully understand how evil and hypocritical all this business about “consecrating” Russia to something by the Latins, you need to be aware of two things: the Ukraine is the creation of the Papacy and its goal has always been the destruction of Russia and the so-called “Marian apparitions” are just one of the many hoaxes, falsifications, forgeries and outright satanic manifestations of the typical Latin

Day 20, a few short updates

Putin made an important speech today which the Russians officials are in no hurry to translate.  So here is a machine translation from Boris Rozhin (aka Colonel Cassad): (only partial extracts from the full transcript, emphasis added by me, Andrei) The operation of the Russian Armed Forces in Ukraine is developing successfully, strictly in accordance with plans. The tactics of the Russian Defense Ministry in Ukraine have fully justified themselves,

Russian special military operation in the Ukraine – Day 20

First, some rather amazing “housekeeping” news.  I spoke with our webmaster today and he told me that our traffic is now about 10 MILLION pages served per month.  On average, we have between 1’000 and 1’300 users connected to our servers at the same time.  So the good news is that the blog is booming.  The bad one is that this will pull our IT costs even further.  However, thanks

What happened to Russia’s gold and foreign currency reserves? Will there be a default?

source: https://vc.ru/finance/379827-kuda-delis-rossiyskie-zolotovalyutnye-rezervy-i-budet-li-defolt translated by the Saker Translation community Part of our gold and currency reserves was frozen in other countries, mainly the US and EU member states, due to sanctions imposed against Russia’s Central Bank (RCB). Therefore, Russians are naturally asking why are our strategic reserves NOT stored on Russia’s territory but on the territory of our economic adversaries? We’ll try to explain how much was stored where, how much
