Military And Diplomatic Updates For Ukraine

Obviously most of this is stuff that I can’t confirm. However, just as on the monetary front, on the military front over the past several days there have been rumblings of possible major developments—massing of armor near Kursk, for example, which means near Kharkiv.

Here we go—mixed in will be items relating to related events around the world:

Regime change 24/7 on a worldwide scale. Hey, I’ve got no brief for Pakistan:

We’ll have several items on the situation in Mariupol:

#MARIUPOL—Sources indicate that, at #Azovstal, a group totaling 20—of #US (#American) & #UK (#British) military advisors of #Azov defenders, as well as several UK #SBU (#Ukraine|ian secrete police) advisors—is holed up, together with Azov fighters. They were too late to evacuate.

Apparently even US MSM is panning this move:

As US empties its SPR, China is filling up its own with oil priced at a $35 discount

Gonzalo Lira, who is holed up with his family in Kharkiv. Others have already suggested that US military in Poland are directing Ukrainian operations. The Pentagon has confirmed—after Zhou’s revelation—that US officers are “liaising” with Ukrainian military personnel (unspecified rank) in Poland. This would explain the very sharp annoyance of Russia with Poland.

Has anyone realized that the Ukraine army is probably being directed—even micromanaged—by NATO commanders? That this is actually a NATO versus Russia war?

Think about it—AFU men have been trained in NATO tactics and communications methods, and use NATO equipment & weapons. 1/4

So it would be easy for NATO generals and staff in Brussels—or the Pentagon—to essentially get in the driver’s seat and direct the AFU to do it’s bidding.

So these losses on the part of the AFU are actually NATO losses. 2/4

This matters because the Russians have been in essence fighting with one hand tied behind their back—because they clearly don’t want to damage civilian infrastructure—and on top of that they’ve been fighting with an extremely small army compared to the defenders. 3/4

This might be why NATO has no intention of committing American or European troops and really going to war with the Russians—because they ARE fighting a war against the Russians.

And losing spectacularly. 4/4

Russians With Attitude @RWApodcast

Two Ukrainian helicopters shot down near Mariupol. Apparently they were allowed to land and then shot down after taking off. ~14 dead, two survivors, one of them an Azov veteran, the other an intelligence officer.

#MARIUPOL—At the same time, clear cracks have emerged among the #Ukraine|ian forces in the city. For instance, at the #Ilyich plant, where the majority of defenders are #UA military, signals have been put out to #Russia|n troops that the soldiers want to surrender peacefully. 5/9

Staged? Amusing:

Angelo Giuliano @Angelo4justice3

Putin style when dealing with oligarchs. When he came into power he made sure oligarchs would be kept out of politics. In case you wonder why western gangster liberal economies hate him

What are they preparing us for?

Maajid أبو عمّار @MaajidNawaz

Even @CNN is now ADMITTING that the AZOV battalion - officially incorporated into Ukraine’s army - is a NAZI unit. All those loud turncoats making ridiculous excuses for NAZISM need to stop. We will not forget, and time will SHAME you. 30 Mar 2022 cnn.com/2022/03/29/eur…:

How about Big Pharma profits?

He apparently also said that our budget shouldn’t be held hostage by a dictator.

Should our health be held hostage by Big Pharma and the Deep State?

Pathetic.
