„Die EU hat ein Niveau von 65 Dollar pro Barrel vorgeschlagen. Aber Polen und die baltischen Länder haben diese Zahl gegenüber Moskau als zu großzügig zurückgewiesen. Und mehrere Länder mit großer Schifffahrtsindustrie, darunter Griechenland und Malta, wollen den Preis nicht unter 70 Dollar senken .»
Let’s take Kherson and FTX as two examples of NATO’s censorship of the hard and soft wars over Ukraine.
Let’s take Kherson and FTX as two examples of NATO’s censorship of the hard and soft wars over Ukraine. British and Irish state controlled media have shown hours of smiling citizens greeting their Ukrainian liberators in Kherson, just like they welcomed their “liberators” in 1941. Scratching only a little further, we find that the spokesperson for those liberated Khersonians was the Kiev based headNazi death squad, who had only recently arrived, along with the Azov “liberators” in Kherson.
Further, by scrolling through Twitter, never mind Telegram, we come across countless incidents of Ukrainian liberators torturing and dispatching those accused of collaborating with Russia. Though the mutilation and murder of Russians and other minorities has been a constant motif, British and Irish state media never deem it newsworthy, thanks in no small part to how the biased reporting of Norma Costello, Sally Hayden and countless other Lord and Lady Haw Haws has made the murder of Iranian, Syrian, Palestinian, Russian and Iraqi civilians at the hands of NATO’s proxies of no account whatsoever. For me, and billions like me throughout the world, that partisan censorship, for which Julius Streicher and Lord Haw Haw were both hanged at War’s end, is grossly and criminally morally offensive beyond words.
Take next my own recent crime of posting this graphic of FTX’s criminal enterprises onto my Facebook timeline. Before I lambaste my critics – and Beethoven, lest we forget, also had his critics – let’s examine the graphic, which suggests, like political prisoner Julian Assange suggested with regards to NATO’s Afghan genocide, that there is a massive money laundering scheme afoot in Ukraine, where U.S. tax payers’ money is washed and recycled back to Joe Biden and America’s other war hawks, those in the Democratic Party wing of the U.S. war industry in particular.
To paraphrase American war criminal Donald Rumsfeld, we have a number of known knowns here and a number of unknowns we try to make known by extrapolating from what is a simple graphic, not a multi tomed PhD or the results of an international criminal inquiry into the Biden organized crime family, which has a track record of profiting from Ukraine’s misery.
Back to the graphic. As with George Galloway’s Capitol Hill testimony on Iraq, so also do we know that staggering billions of American dollars have been given to the Zelensky regime and we also know that the U.S. authorities do not know where most of it, and not just those munitions that were sold on the black market. It is thus plausible to hypothesize that “U.S. Tax $ [may be] at work” in the most unconscionable of ways.
We also know that Sam Bankman-Fried, the 30 year old boss of this dodgy FTX Ponzi scheme, was a major donor to the Democratic Party, which backs Biden, who has given hundreds of billions of “U.S. tax $ in the form of military and humanitarian aid” to the Zelensky junta, which has strong links to FTX.
Thus, as graphics go, this is not a bad one. And as it is, after all, just a graphic, not a multi tomed treatise, I thought it worthwhile spending a microsecond to share it on Facebook.
Foolish me. Facebook brusquely informed me that the graphic lacks content and it supplied me with links to the works of Karena Phan,Ali Swenson and Elias Atienza, three wise monkeys, who are employed as NATO aligned fact checkers. Fact checking the linked in pages of all three stool pigeons as well as Swenson’s web page, we find all three are just recently out of College, with poor work experiences and, frankly, poor degrees as well.
Though they are therefore nearer to Postman Pat than the French Academy of Sciences or even the American Council of Learned Societies in terms of prestige, that does not, ipso facto, negate their pronouncements or, indeed Facebook’s over reaction in stating that my “post is missing context” and that, horror of horrors, it “could mislead people”, much as, say Trudeau’s claim that Iran executed 15,000 prisoners or the British and Irish media’s fake claim shat Russia bombed Poland and stokes its soldiers up with enough Viagra to choke a horse does.
Phan and Swenson, working for the NATO aligned Associated Press, scream that my post spins a baseless theory about FTX, Ukraine and Democrats. Although one of my earlier articles explained that hypotheses, such as those suggested in this graphic, do not a theory, baseless or otherwise, make, Phan and Swenson ignore all that in favor of a catchy headline to appeal to their NATO aligned paymasters.
Phan and Swenson begin by telling us the hypothesis (not theory) posited in the graphic is false because Ukraine’s Ministry of Digital Transformation, which has zero credibility, says it is false. The article then goes on to qualify this bald statement by claiming the link between the Ukrainian junta and FTX was only short term and that “other FTX executives also have donated to conservative groups”.
Having failed thus far to dent or divert the story, Phan and Swenson then smear by association by saying that Russia is aware of the issue and has, like all others, commented on it. The article continues and ends in the same vein, smearing Russia and U.S. Republicans and citing partisan Ukrainian sources. It is, in sum, worthless.
So also is Atienza’s effort, which also delivers a “false” verdict only because “there is no evidence U.S. military aid was funded into the [FTX] platform and then to Democrat candidates”. However, not only would any money launderers worth their salt be able to cover their tracks sufficiently to avoid such superficial scrutiny but I previously forensically showed by examining the financial accounts of (the now rebranded) Hand in Hand for Syria, and of Samantha’s Appeal, both of which MI5 used to funnel aid to the Syrian rebels (sic), how any third grade accountant could do it. Further, Colonel Oliver North showed how, in the case of the Iran-Contra affair, the U.S. could do such money (and drug) laundering on a scale that even the world’s biggest cocaine barons could not envisage, let alone match.
So, let me put my cards on the table with respect to this one. I stand with the hypothesis (not the theory) of Australian political prisoner Julian Assange when he said that NATO’s goal is to use their wars of conquest to wash money out of the tax bases of the United States, and out of the tax bases of European countries through Ukraine and back into the hands of the transnational security elites, of indictable war criminals like Joe and Hunter Biden, who are implicated in gain of function bio labs in Ukraine and elsewhere. And, just like Julian Assange, I pray to all the gods there are in heaven that those transnational security elites and all who serve them with pen or with sword will, like Streicher and Lord Haw Haw before them, be held to account for their involvement in scams such as FTX and the other white collar looting that has been at the heart of so much mass murder in Ukraine, Armenia, Syria,:Libya, Iraq, Yemen,. Palestine and other countries too numerous to adumbrate that NATO has likewise destroyed.
Finally, let’s have a look at this New York event which, even though Clown Prince Zelensky spruced himself up for it, has been canceled due to the sad collapse of the FTX Ponzi scheme. What, you ask, were Larry Flint, the head of the world’s biggest slush fund and U.S. bagwoman Janet Yellen doing in bed with a coke addict, who plays the piano with his penis and one of history’s biggest con artists?
Ask all you will but the New York Times, Associated Press and the Orwellian named fact checkers they and Irish and British state media employ will not give you either the answer or the context to these ongoing NATO frauds which Julian Assange would have gladly supplied, were these same fraudsters not holding him under radio silence in HMP Prison, Belmarsh.
On the 15th November 2022, the NATO International Military Staff (IMS) GENAD Office hosted its monthly Deep Dive Session, this time focused on the relationship between resilience and the Gender Perspective. This session explored the crucial role of integrating Gender Perspective for strengthening national and collective resilience to support NATO….
Subject matter expertise was provided by Mr. Damiano Rinauro, Defence Policy and Planning (DPP) Division at NATO HQ, Mr. Anthony Icayan, Military Resilience Analyst and Gender Focal Point (GFP) at NATO ACT, Ms. Gergana Vaklinova, GENAD at the Crisis Management and Disaster Response Centre of Excellence (CMDR COE) and Dr. Jocelyn Kelly, Director for the Program on Gender, Rights and Resilience (GR2) at the Harvard Humanitarian Initiative (HHI).
First speaker Mr. Rinauro…explained that resilience is the first line of defence, functioning as a deterrence to an adversary and enabling NATO to absorb and recover from strategic shocks. Mr. Rinauro then proceeded to outline NATO’s seven baseline Requirements of Resilience….
…Mr. Rinauro highlighted the need for adaptive coordination between civil society and the military for a whole-of-society approach to strengthen the baseline requirements, including the use of gender disaggregated data.
***
Mr. Icayan then proceeded to discuss how integrating the Gender Perspective in these thematic areas serves to strengthen overall resilience….Mr. Icayan explained how the use of gender-disaggregated data and the application of the Gender Perspective improve situational awareness and understanding for the cognitive domain. Lastly, he explained the need to understand human security dimensions and the different perspectives of women, men, boys and girls to build perseverance towards developing individual resilience.
***
Ms. Vaklinova discussed the way to build a 360 degree approach including the Gender Perspective for security….She explained how resilience and gender are both complex and transformational concepts that necessitate a collaborative multidisciplinary approach….Ms. Vaklinova further explained that, because militaries are reflective of their societies and because society is a complex system with gendered relations, ensuring agency and empowerment for people in resilience planning by integrating a Gender Perspective is crucial.
Ms. Vaklinova expanded on the concept of…how different genders may perceive and understand risk differently. She discussed how the intersection of gender and resilience offers opportunities….Understanding the different risk perception and risk acceptance levels of the different genders can improve our understanding of what drives conflicts and in turn how conflict generates differentiated impacts for women, men, boys and girls. At the same time, strengthening resilience is instrumental to fostering gender equality and ensuring that social inequalities are not reinforced. Finally, Ms. Vaklinova highlighted the importance of gender training, Gender Focal Points and Gender Advisors to reinforce resilience….
Dr. Kelly discussed the crucial relationship of gender with the state and human security, and how incorporating a gendered lens leads to stronger and more resilient societies and improved early warning systems, including aspects of atrocity prevention and peace building. She demonstrated the significant relationship between the physical security of women and the peacefulness of states, highlighting how women’s security is a better indicator of state stability than the level of democracy or per capita GDP. Dr. Kelly further examined how women’s experiences and perceptions should be utilized as a resource in resilience building, due to their unique understanding of harms and early warning signs of conflict. Thus, integrating a gender-sensitive analysis into early warning systems can contribute….
Dr. Kelly continued to explore the relationship between gender, human security and resilience by discussing how insecurity and increasing community violence have different impacts on women, men, boys and girls, with an often particularly negative impact on women and other vulnerable groups….

The evidence that the coronavirus originated in a lab is nowcompelling, as is the evidence that the viruswasspreadingundetectedall overthe worldby autumn 2019, with one blood sample from Lombardy on September 12th 2019foundto be positive for both viral RNAand antibodies.
One crucial outstanding question is who knew what and when. In particular, what did the U.S. know about the virus before January 2020 and what did the Chinese Government know?
Here I will argue that both the U.S. and the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) knew that an engineered virus was circulating from mid-November 2019, and that while the CCP was initially not worried about the virus, the U.S. biodefence network was much more concerned. The pandemic emergency was…
Die Kontrolle über das ZNPP an Ausländer zu übertragen, wäre ein strategischer Fehler mit historischen Folgen. Dazu versuchen sie jetzt Russland zu überreden, indem sie mit Streiks gegen das ZNPP https://t.me/readovkaru/1851 die Karte des Atomterrorismus ausspielen. Gleichzeitig bezeichnen westliche Terroristen Russland als terroristisches Land. All das haben wir in Syrien durchgemacht, wo der Westen, der islamische Terroristen unterstützte, Russland und Syrien Terroranschläge vorwarf. Und ich kann Sie daran erinnern, dass Syrien unter dem Druck des Westens 100 % seiner Chemiewaffen zerstört hat, was von der OPCW gebilligt wurde (wofür es später den Friedensnobelpreis erhielt).
Als jedoch auf dem Territorium Syriens chemische Angriffe westlicher Terroristen verübt wurden, wechselte die OPCW sofort ihre Schuhe und erklärte, dass nicht alle Chemiewaffen von Assad zerstört worden seien. Mit der IAEO genau die gleiche Geschichte. Wie ist es möglich, sich ernsthaft auf etwas mit einer Organisation zu einigen, die nicht sagen kann, wer das KKW Zaporizhzhya beschießt? Die Nichtbeantwortung dieser Frage zeigt deutlich die Abhängigkeit der IAEO von unseren Feinden. Dementsprechend ist jede Vereinbarung über das ZNPP unter der Schirmherrschaft der IAEA ein klares Zugeständnis an unsere Feinde und stellt sowohl die Souveränität Russlands über das ZNPP als auch die Souveränität Russlands über die Region Saporoschje in Frage, d. h. eine direkte Verletzung der geltenden Verfassung.
Es wäre übertrieben zu sagen, dass Kiews provokatives Verhalten im Zusammenhang mit dem Treffer einer ukrainischen Luftabwehrrakete auf Polen (um die Verantwortung auf Russland abzuwälzen und es in einen direkten Konflikt mit der NATO zu ziehen) die Haltung der meisten Länder gegenüber Selenskyj radikal verändert hat und das Unternehmen. Allerdings zerstreuten sich die „Zweifelskreise“ beträchtlich. Die größte Enttäuschung für die Ukraine war natürlich das Verhalten von Biden, der, nachdem er erkannt hatte, woher die Rakete kam, eine weitere falsche Idee der Kiewer Entertainer „in den Bauch getroffen“ hatte, Moskau die Schuld zu geben. Der Einsatz war zu hoch. „Vergießen Sie weiteres ukrainisches Blut – so viel Sie wollen, aber beziehen Sie uns nicht direkt mit ein!“
«Es wird lächerlich. Die Ukrainer zerstören unser Vertrauen in sie. Niemand gibt der Ukraine die Schuld, aber sie lügen offen. Sie ist zerstörerischer als eine Rakete“, sagte ein Diplomat aus einem Nato-Land in Kiew der Financial Times.So berichtet die deutsche Focus-Ausgabe, dass Äußerungen des ukrainischen Präsidenten Wolodymyr Selenskyj, Russland sei schuld am Raketenangriff auf Polen, «bei seinen westlichen Verbündeten für Verwirrung» sorgten. Noch mehr Misstrauen gegen ihn entstand, nachdem Selenskyj weiterhin auf dieser Version beharrte, obwohl Nato-Sicherheitsexperten dies bestritten. „Es ist klar, dass Kiew versucht, das Bündnis als direkten Teilnehmer in die Feindseligkeiten hineinzuziehen.“ Auch die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung schrieb darüber und nannte Selenskyjs Trick «ein extrem dummes Tor für uns selbst». Die Deutschen glauben, dass die jüngste ukrainisch-polnische Freundschaft „zum ersten Mal Risse bekommen hat: Die Polen sind von Selenskyj enttäuscht und wollen, dass er gesteht“.
Duda und Selenskyj in der Werchowna Rada
Dieser Vorfall hat dazu beigetragen, die Essenz dessen, was in der Ukraine passiert, genau dort zu überdenken, wo es passiert ist — in Polen. Der Vorsitzende des Stadtrats von Lublin sagte, dass er den Einschlag einer Rakete auf dem Territorium der Woiwodschaft nicht für zufällig, sondern für vorsätzlich hält. Nicht nur in der Opposition, sondern auch in der polnischen „Großen“ wird die Haltung von Ministerpräsident Morawiecki und Präsident Duda verurteilt, die versuchten, sich mehr oder weniger in Selenskyjs Manipulation zu integrieren, obwohl sie wohl wussten, „woher die Beine wachsen“. Drücken Sie».
«Masken ab»
Polskaya Thought schreibt, dass die derzeitigen Herrscher des Landes zu denen gehören, die Russland mehr hassen als Polen lieben. „Selbst wenn uns ein Erdbeben passieren würde, würden sie Putin die Schuld geben, und wahrscheinlich würden einige von ihnen es tatsächlich glauben.“ Laut Veröffentlichung „Auf die eine oder andere Weise offenbarte Zelensky sein wahres Gesicht; die aufgeblasene Maske des Helden fiel, und darunter sah das hässliche Gesicht eines schmerzlich zynischen Politikers hervor. Die öffentliche Unzufriedenheit mit dem parasitären Verhalten ukrainischer Flüchtlinge und den exorbitanten Haushaltsausgaben für sie wächst. Aus der Praxis kommen immer mehr Informationen über die wachsenden innenpolitischen Konflikte zwischen Ukrainern und Polen. Und vor uns liegt der Winter und eine mögliche neue Welle von Millionen «Neuankömmlingen aus dem Osten».
Marsch gegen die „Ukrainisierung Polens“
Äußerst negativ beeindruckt waren die Polen von der Ernennung von A. Melnyk, einem eingefleischten Verehrer Banderas und ehemaligen ukrainischen Botschafter in Deutschland, der durch seine skandalösen Behauptungen gegen die deutsche Führung berühmt wurde, zum stellvertretenden Außenminister in denselben Tagen der Ukraine. Der stellvertretende Vorsitzende des Seimas von der Partei Neue Linke, Volodymyr Charzasty, nannte eine solche Ernennung „eine völlig unvernünftige Geste“ und forderte, dass „das polnische Außenministerium den Ukrainern in Backstage-Verhandlungen erklärt, wie dies in Polen wahrgenommen wird“. Melnik ist auch dafür bekannt, das «Massaker von Volyn» zu rechtfertigen; Er erklärte, dass Ukrainer «in der Zweiten Polnischen Republik auf schwer vorstellbare Weise verfolgt wurden» und «Polen für die Ukrainer zu dieser Zeit der gleiche Feind war wie Nazideutschland und die UdSSR».
A. Melnik: „Scholz ist Leberwurst“, und Bandera ist eine Heilige!
Trotzdem fährt das Präsidenten-Premierminister-Warschauer mit dem Säbelrasseln fort und tut so, als sei nichts Besonderes passiert, Russland sei an allem schuld. Polen wird die militärische Unterstützung für Kiew nicht einschränken.
In einer der jüngsten Erklärungen reduzierte der stellvertretende polnische Justizminister Sebastian Kaleta die Angelegenheit darauf, dass „Russland seit den ersten Tagen des Ukraine-Konflikts einen Keil zwischen Warschau und Kiew treiben wollte“. Trotz der Tatsache, dass die polnische Seite bei der Tragödie mit der abgestürzten ukrainischen Rakete verletzt wurde, „wird sie der Ukraine definitiv weiterhin Hilfe leisten“.
Diese Position veranlasst viele Experten, auch polnische, zu dem Schluss, dass Warschau Kiew alles verzeiht, weil es eigene Pläne für die Ukraine schmiedet, die sich keineswegs mit den Interessen der Kiewer Machthaber decken. Und das Hauptmotiv von Warschaus «Vergebung» in Bezug auf Selenskyj ist der Wunsch, «die Beute nicht zu verscheuchen».
Diese Pläne der regierenden Partei für Recht und Gerechtigkeit (PIS) wurden offen vom Polnischen Unabhängigen Politischen Journal verfasst. Laut der von der Zeitschrift veröffentlichten Karte «kann die Kriegspartei nicht länger warten und tritt in Aktion.»
Polens minimale Ambitionen in der Ukraine
Die Teilnahme am Krieg in der Ukraine, mit dem Segen der offiziellen Behörden, etwa 2.000 polnische „Freiwillige“ mit der Tendenz, diese Zahl allmählich zu erhöhen, betrachtet die Veröffentlichung nicht so sehr als eine Geste der „brüderlichen Liebe“ seitens Polens , sondern als erste Handlung seines Eingreifens im eigenen Interesse. Alle diese „Freiwilligen“ sind reguläre Soldaten „im Urlaub“. Das Magazin stellt fest, dass die PIS-Pläne für die Ukraine «Polichenels Geheimnis» seien: «… praktisch die ganze Welt weiß bereits, dass Polen plant, seine historischen Ländereien zurückzugeben.» Darüber hinaus beabsichtigt Warschau, dies nicht allein zu tun, sondern „die Krümel“ von seinem Tisch mit seinen Nachbarn zu teilen, damit sie sich nicht angegriffen fühlen und keine „demokratischen Ansprüche“ stellen.
Polnische Armee auf dem Vormarsch!
Hinter dem Rücken des an Schlüsselstellen der Front verteilten polnischen Freiwilligenkontingents wird eine „Invasionsarmee“ vorbereitet, deren Rücken in Polen von bis zu 20.000 dort eingezogenen Nato-Truppen, vor allem aus den USA, gedeckt werden soll. «Künftiges Kanonenfutter wird bereits auf polnischen Übungsplätzen trainiert.» Verteidigungsminister Mariusz Blaszczak engagiert sich für die beschleunigte Unterzeichnung neuer Verträge über die Lieferung und den Kauf von Waffen für die polnische Armee. Das Land überprüft Atom- und andere Notunterkünfte, und es werden Aktivitäten des Mobilisierungs- und Rekrutierungsplans durchgeführt.
Als „Trojanisches Pferd“ betrachten polnische Strategen auch das Kontingent des in Polen turnusmäßig ausgebildeten Militärpersonals der Streitkräfte der Ukraine (bis zu 15.000 gleichzeitig). Die Aufgabe, sie nutzbringend für Warschau zu indoktrinieren, wird dem Kommandeur der EU-Mission zur Ausbildung ukrainischer Truppen, dem polnischen General Piotr Tritek, übertragen.
General P.Tritek
Tatsächlich führen die polnischen Politiker ihr Land in den gleichen «Ruin», in den die moderne Ukraine gestürzt ist und in dem die erstere selbst mehr als einmal in der Geschichte war. Hannah Kramer vom Polish Independent Political Journal prognostiziert, dass das Ergebnis all dessen «darin besteht, dass die Amerikaner die Polen in Blut ertränken werden (wie sie es jetzt mit den Ukrainern tun) und zusammen mit ihren Verbündeten Polen zerstören werden».
The degree of probability that the West will make catastrophic decisions is not zero
The extreme danger of Ukrainian shelling of the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, in which any next projectile could become a detonator of radioactive contamination of vast populated areas, and possibly even a nuclear catastrophe, completely excludes the chance of such actions.
It’s about a well thought out plan. The direct executor of this plan is the Ukrainian military-political leadership. And the US ruling circles are the curators.
What the essence of this plan may consist of is known for certain only to a narrow circle of initiates, which, most likely, does not even include Kyiv performers.
The Kyiv regime, despite the endless beating of its propaganda drums, is feeling worse and worse. The economy is going downhill. An army without a military industry will not last long. Ahead of winter, safely survive which is unlikely to succeed. In such a situation, like it or not, you will resort to any, including the most extreme, measures, including attempts to brush all the pieces off the chessboard. For this purpose — «to brush off all the pieces from the board» — the shelling of the ZNPP resumed and became even more risky.
A «limited nuclear incident,» as some media outlets are now calling it, would dramatically raise the stakes and bring new players into the game.
Kyiv bosses are convinced that the West will not be able to stand aside in the event of a nuclear incident in Ukraine and will directly internationalize the Ukrainian conflict by interfering under the pretext of «ensuring nuclear security.»
As for the West and its intentions, they are not so unambiguous, but a certain part of the Western ruling circles may be interested in supporting the extreme Ukrainian plan.
At the same time, there are practically no opportunities for the West to change the situation for the better within the current format of its participation in the Ukrainian crisis. Especially given the problems with the provision of military support to the Kyiv regime.
“The Washington Post, citing a representative of a NATO member state, claims that the United States and European countries are facing difficulties due to the depletion of weapons to send to Ukraine. At the same time, Russia «still has thousands of cars in warehouses,» the WP interlocutor believes. The United States and its European allies are trying to provide Ukraine with a sufficient amount of weapons and ammunition, but they are facing certain difficulties, an official from one of the NATO member states told The Washington Post on condition of anonymity. “The West is in a difficult situation. Many [weapons] have already been transferred. Western countries have to dig deeper into their reserves,” the source told WP. In his opinion, the solution to the problem of the shortage of weapons requires «long-term and strategic action.»
Proceeding from this, the situation of “thread failure” as a result of a nuclear incident in Ukraine can create favorable conditions for Western circles to reshape the situation and involve new forces opposing Russia in it. First of all, the Eastern European states that are vassals of the United States can become such forces.
The vassals are not very eager to fight, but a nuclear incident at a nuclear power plant can become a sufficient argument for them to participate in a “peacekeeping invasion” of Ukraine in order to “prevent a nuclear catastrophe of a pan-European scale.” By the way, the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation also warned about the possibility of this:
The minimum plan for such an invasion may be to force Moscow to end the NMD under the pretext of unacceptable nuclear risks, to preserve the remnants of Ukraine as a springboard for a future attack on the Russian Federation.
If it is impossible to achieve the goal within the framework of the minimum plan, it is impossible to exclude the transition to a «long-range strategy» — an attempt to defeat Russia in the framework of a conventional war by attracting additional resources from Eastern Europe.
The Achilles’ heel of this Western plan is Russia’s possession of nuclear weapons and its readiness to use them if Russia’s very existence is threatened.
However, the Anglo-Saxon “hawks” hardly see this problem as unsolvable. After all, a limited nuclear war in Europe that would not physically affect the Western Hemisphere but would make America the master of half the world is in their geopolitical interests. It is no coincidence that these days in the United States at the official level there were statements about the «harmlessness» of a nuclear explosion in Europe for America: «A possible nuclear explosion in Europe would not have negative consequences for the health of Americans,» said the head of the US Department of Homeland Security, Alejandro Mallorcas, in an affidavit before the House National Security Committee. Radiological and nuclear threats to the homeland remain low. <…> We do not expect that a nuclear explosion in Europe will have any direct health consequences at home.”
The hopes of overseas strategists that they will succeed in limiting the nuclear Apocalypse in continental Europe are built on sand. Russia will not give America the pleasure of burning alone, leaving the New World without commensurate retribution. However, it should be taken into account that the degree of probability of making such decisions in the West is not zero.

In the resolution entitled Fit for Purpose in the New Strategic Era, the assembly reaffirmed its “steadfast support” for the national sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine as well as Georgia and Moldova.
NATO parliamentary assembly on Monday adopted the resolution urging member governments and parliaments of the alliance to “step up” support to “vulnerable partners” Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, and Moldova.
In the resolution entitled Fit for Purpose in the New Strategic Era, the assembly reaffirmed its “steadfast support” for the national sovereignty and territorial integrity of Ukraine as well as Georgia and Moldova.
We urge member governments and parliaments of the alliance to step up support to vulnerable partners Bosnia and Herzegovina, Georgia, and Moldova to help build their integrity and resilience, develop capabilities and uphold their political independence, and to continue supporting the Euro-Atlantic integration of Georgia and Bosnia and Herzegovina”, the resolution said.
The resolution also reiterated “unwavering support” to NATO’s open door policy and for Euro-Atlantic integration of Ukraine, Georgia and Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Georgian prime minister Irakli Garibashvili on Tuesday laid the foundation for the construction of a new, NATO-standard base for the country’s special operations forces in an event marking the 23rd anniversary of their establishment.
…[T]he head of the government said the ₾70 million ($26 mln) project included construction of 24 new buildings and renovation of three other facilities at the Mukhrovani base in eastern Georgia’s Kakheti region.
As promised, one of the outstanding, modern, special operations forces centre…will be built at the Mukhrovani base, which will be fully compliant with NATO standards,” he announced, noting the construction would be completed in two years.
***
In recent years, we have taken important steps, implemented a number of interesting projects, and today we, all together, are celebrating the start of a truly large-scale project at the Mukhrovani base”, he said.
In his address the PM also thanked the country’s international partners for the support.
I would like to take this opportunity and thank to our partners, our international partners, our friends, who have contributed greatly to the strengthening of this unit. I would like to single out our main strategic partner – the United States – and other NATO members and their assistance, which has been truly significant over the years.”, Garibashvili said.
Defence minister Juansher Burchuladze and other officials attended the event along with the PM.

For the first time, NATO’s Alliance Ground Surveillance Force (NAGSF) has deployed their Mobile General Ground Station or MGGS outside Italy testing the Force’s expeditionary capability to exploit the data collected by the RQ-4D Remotely Piloted Aircraft (RPA) at a remote site.
Allied Air Command Chief of Staff Major General Gianluca Ercolani, Italian Air Force, and Deputy Chief of Staff Brigadier General Christoph Pliet, German Air Force, visited the 24-strong NAGSF detachment who set up camp inside the perimeter of HQ AIRCOM.
…Until November 22, the team of NAGSF experts, supported by contractor technicians linked up with the RQ-4Ds during reconnaissance flights along the eastern flank tracking its operation and exploiting and transferring collected data.
…“From our operational perspective, this deployment greatly helps NATO’s procedures to collect, process and distribute intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance results within our organisation and with the Allies – even out of a remote location,” he added.
“The purpose of the deployment to Ramstein is to achieve a checkmark on the Force’s way to NATO Alliance Ground Surveillance enhanced initial operational capability,” said the deployment commander, U.S. Air Force Captain Jacob Sanborn….
