This morning there are three huge developments to report.First, RT reports that: At talks in the Belarusian capital, the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics have urged Kiev to acknowledge their autonomy within Ukraine, but said they wish to remain an integral part of the country. LNR and DNR representatives urged the Ukrainian government to end their military operation in the country’s east so that parliamentary and local elections can

Oh this is too good, I have to show this to you! Remember how I predicted that the Ukies would claim that in attack on Novoazovsk came from Russia? I wrote: “After having completely denied that an successful Novorussian operation was taking place, the Ukies had to finally admit that the Novorussian Armed Forces (NAF) had reached Novoazovsk. But remember that the successful operation which got them there in the
Guys, I had a very good Sunday, finally (!) some time to relax, so I will only post this small request:Please – read what I actually wrote, not what you think I have written or what you assume I have implied. Seriously, I never personally took position on the Ferguson topic. I never said that I liked the policies of Helmut Schmidt, Charles de Gaulle, Margaret Thatcher, François Mitterrand or
In my previous post, I mentioned that western leaders are going through a clear phase of self-delusion and panic. I want to add a short comment about the self-delusion part.I am amazed, absolutely amazed, at the fact that EU politicians, and the MSM which serves them, are still seriously discussing the adoption of even more sanctions against Russia when it is absolutely, totally and undeniably obvious that:a) there is no
Self-delusion and panic in the West It is actually quite amusing to observe the reaction of Ukrainian and European leaders these days. After feeding us fairy tales about how the Ukrainians were “winning” the civil war, they suddenly made a 180 degree turn and are now in the full panic mode. I might shock many of you, but I sincerely believe that, at least in part, the following is happening.The
Foreword: I am so busy with the events in the Ukraine that I barely had the time to follow the events in Ferguson so I will readily admit that I have no opinion about it. I do have quite a few opinions about race-relations in the USA, including some rather politically incorrect ones (I don’t consider US Blacks either as either Africans or Americans, for example). While I lived in
By Stuart Sterzel, London, August 2014 “Long live the White Races, and down with the Semite-led subhumans and interracial contacts”. Look at that slogan. Should this be regarded as a great and laudable sentiment or call-to-action? If you think so, then, then here are some equally laudable sentiments, provided by the same person and organisation: “The historic mission of our nation in this critical moment is to lead the White
Transcarpathia 29 Jul. NATO has sponsored a project involving Romanian and Ukrainian scientists to monitor river pollution on the Tisza river. This is a major source of drinking water for the region and passes through Uzhhord. This is a major town situated close to the border with Romania. This strikes me as an opportunity to insert SIS types into the region under NGO/environmentalist cover. 5 Aug. The head of the
Does it matter when private individuals sent a latter to a head of state? Don’t their press services receive hundreds of letters every day? Yes, they do, but when somebody writes to a foreign head of state, one which is own rulers consider an enemy, this matters. It matters even more when the people writing express categorical disagreement with their own regime and support or understanding for the foreign ruler.
by Peter Koenig “The separatists are backed, trained, armed, financed by Russia. Russia determined that it had to be a little more overt in what it had already been doing, but it’s not really a shift.”Barak Obama, 29 August 2014. “If you repeat a lie often enough, it becomes the truth.” Joseph Goebbels Interestingly, most of us who are seeking the truth are primarily attempting to undo the lies –
Foreword: today I am publishing a number of appeals to the mothers and people of the Ukraine which I ask you to circulate as widely as possible. The women of the Ukraine have already shown their determination to stop the senseless bloodshed ordered by the junta and I think that it is crucial for us to let them know that we are aware of their struggle and that we support
The Ukrainian civil war has reached a turning point and a lot of separate facts point to this conclusion:Military situation on the groundThe Ukies are losing, badly. All the reports from Novorussian sources agree that the Ukie forces are either surrounded or in full retreat. But Ukies sources also confirm this. In Kiev, angry demonstrations by nationalists accuse the military high command of minimizing the real casualty figures, of having
I envy the Russians, I envy these “katsaps” and “the Moskals”! I envy their Olympics and their army. I have many friends and relatives in Russia. I see how they change and grow. They believe their President. They believe in their army. They are proud of their great history, achievements and victories. It was once our common history … victories and achievements. Not so long ago. They have found their
Full text of address: It is clear the militia has achieved a major success in intercepting Kiev’s military operation, which represents a grave danger to the population of Donbass and which has already led to the loss of many lives among peaceful residents. As a result of the militia’s actions, a large number of Ukrainian service members who did not participate in the military operation of their own volition but
Dear friends, While we are all on the edge waiting for the news from Novorossia to change any minute, we’d like to ask your help with the two projects that the Russian Saker team is currently undertaking: 1. Our Russian partners from polismi.ru site asked us about the Ferguson crisis in the USA. Can those of you who live in the US, write something up for us or send us

Dear friends,I just decided to quickly drop by to let you know that the reports out of Novorussia are nothing short of incredible. Okay, this is not, repeat, *NOT* confirmed, but sources are reporting that Novorussian forces have bypassed Mariupol from the north and have entered the Zaporozhie region! I find this hard to believe, but some sources indicate that there is an offensive on Berdiansk. If true, this is
Retraction: Iranian Foreign Minister Javad Zarif was referring to Concessions being given by the West on compromises made in Arak, where nuclear facilities are located, and not on Iraq, its neighbour. 26th Aug: Iraqi Security Forces are stating that they have arrested the terrorist responsible for the bombing that took place in Babil on Monday. 26th Aug: Daash has destroyed using explosives the house of the advisor to the Salah
Overview of the Situation in the Donbass Region – August 24, 2014 Translated by Daniel MikhailovichEdited by Olga Luzanova The Fighting in the Coastal Area Even recently, it might have seemed laughable, but today the fighting has begun in the area of Novoazovsk, where a powerful anti-aircraft defense node and a hodgepodge of different units of questionable combat capability have been stationed since April to cover the border with Russia. After the
