Russian state TV broadcast a clip recently showing how Russia might go about nuking the UK using SARMAT 2, nickname ‘Son of Satan’. Whichever way you look at it that seems like a terrible thing to do. According to Dmitry Kiselyov, the presenter of this distasteful piece, one SARMAT would pretty much do the job. Subtle the Russians ain’t but then the US has ‘sensitive’ folks like press secretary John Kirby, whose dry-teared faked emotion about Putin’s ‘depravity’ took some beating in the desperation stakes. Remember this is an American government spokesman speaking, the same US with the blood of a purported six million dead in their ‘war on terror’ on their hands; a million dead in Iraq alone and tens of millions displaced. So, just embarrassing for Americans as Kiselyov’s piece must have been for any sane Russian.
There is as yet no air defense against the hyper-sonic Russian missile. It would take about three minutes from launch to impact. Which is comforting. Why would the Russian state TV even talk like that? Apparently, it had the British government ‘freaking out’. Freaking out would be good if it meant that Billy Bunter, our prime minister and Aunt Sally, our Foreign Minister were so spooked they remembered a long lost but important word in the diplomatic language of the nuclear age, détente.
Sadly, British politicians have become the historically challenged cultists we are so used to seeing in US politics. A group so intellectually challenged they are prepared to stop at nothing, including nuclear war to bring down Russia and ultimately China. Britain has just approved a £375 million for lethal aid to Ukraine’s military. This was probably why Russian State TV decided to air the appalling ‘nuke the UK’ clip on prime time, that and the mistaken belief Boris was threatening non-NATO aligned pre-emptive strikes on Russia. You see where loose talk on both sides can get us very quickly? A one way trip down silly street.
With the British state blindly committed to such a lost cause that is Ukraine, it is impossible to see how Westminster would respond to such a provocative piece other than inimically. So, the cycle continues.

As far as Ukraine is concerned there are now only two options; bad and very bad. There is nothing salvageable of the Don Basin, Mariupol or Kherson for Ukraine. The suicidal continuation of this utterly pointless slaughter of Ukraine’s army will mean at the very least a rump state, west of the Dnipro River with Lvov as the new capital and at worst no country at all. It is unclear what Russia’s intentions are now with Putin’s miscalculation that Kiev would be brought back to Minsk by such a show. There are rumours that he will declare war (Russia has been very specific in calling the invasion a special military operation) what this will mean regarding the military objectives is also not clear but it looks like more escalation is on the cards.
Nerves are rattled in Moldova and Transnistria as Kiev’s very own Comical Ali, smirking Arestovich, (who seems to treat the whole ugly war as a TV game show) talked about a second front. This will suit the West whose initial intention for Ukraine was to bog down Russia and achieve regime change in Moscow. But Ukraine are already scraping their rather empty barrel conscripting teens and a dad’s army of men up to 65 years of age in a desperate volkssturm cannon fodder approach as per Washington’s demands. It seems unlikely to be effective especially when you see the women of Khust in Ukraine’s Transcarpathian region in the west out on the streets protesting the sending of their untrained men to a collapsing and extremely hazardous front. The average Ukrainians are losing what little stomach for Zelensky’s death mission they once had.
The West, led by a progressively muddled President in the White House, inexorably marches on and what is left of Ukraine will become the EU’s permanent welfare burden added to their already growing economic ones. Europe’s powerhouse economy Germany, will need to close factories to keep the masses from winter cold and riots as promises of energy independence evaporate in the light of reality. I suspect gas for Roubles will be done in secret despite the silly season talk from the clownish technocrats.
The influx of refugees will further exacerbate the growing problem of Germany’s far right. With a Chancellor at the helm who seems more concerned to manufacture weapons for a foreign army, an army who will be unable to make any proper use of them, than the growing and real threat to his own country’s Russian dependent economy. If the newly manufactured arms manage to get over the border without Russia destroying them it will be an achievement in itself but then there is the problem of training, proficiency in using and maintaining all the new kit, this takes months and time is not on Ukraine’s side. There is a reason the US is not sending air defense systems, it’s just not practical.
Boris Johnson is finally admitting that Ukraine might not win, which is Downing Street speak for Ukraine has lost, what now? We are sending more weapons anyway, which is just optics and a way to get rid of old inventory due to expire, cheaply. How does the UK voter put up with Johnson’s decision to suicide the UK saving the Kremlin an expensive nuke?
Simply put, the grooming of our consent has so far been very effective. The question is for how long before the plebs patience wears thin when the bread and circuses stop?
The war in Ukraine has shown that it is far more than just a local affair in the East, like South Ossetia, Transnistria or Nagorno-karabakh, the ripples are turning into waves effecting the whole World. The woefully underestimated power and economic resilience of the Russian Federation and its ability to turn the sanctions back on us so effectively was a serious miscalculation by the West. The Rouble is stronger than it was before the war sitting at 62 to the dollar as I write, the strongest performing currency in the world right now. The Russians never lost their skill for rapid development it seems; Stalin transformed a feudal economy into a superpower in twenty years. Since the downing of the Malaysian flight MH17, conveniently pinned on Russia to facilitate a punishing raft of sanctions, which incidentally is one of the reasons why a Ukrainian blogger has been arrested in Spain at the behest of Saint Ze and the Kiev crew (he blogged pictures of Ukie Buk launchers very near where the plane came down making him a thorn in Kiev’s side and by extension the West’s dodgy narrative and has been running from his ‘democracy’ ever since). Russia did with sanctions what any intelligent person knew they would; diversify their economy, adapt it and at the same time develop devastating missile technology, anti-tank weaponry and advanced main battle Tanks (like the T14) for which NATO/US for now has no match.
The chiefs of staff in the US did not read the signs, did not take the advice and now face an enemy of their own making worse than their worst nightmare. The Pentagon chiefs seem as cut off from reality as the Washington elites from the average American as they hallucinate about Ukraine’s victory in their fugue state. The economist Michael Hudson recently commented when asked why the Washington elites seem to be acting so irrationally against their own interests; it is because, he said, they are incapable of thinking any other way (he has spent his professional life working with them). Crony Capitalism’s short-termism is proving a poor match for dogged Russian long-term planning.
An indication of how NATO’s proxy war is really going was seen in a recent video posted by a Ukraine Nazi commander, call sign ‘Chilli’, his unit was the one kneecapping and executing Russian POWs (note: the victims had their hands tied behind their backs) and videoed their handiwork. He is eager now to tell the world he didn’t agree with the action (he’s a commander remember)…he makes no mention of what happened to the brutalised Russians afterwards. Were they executed or left to bleed and die? That is not his concern. He is realising that the war is not going to end well despite NATOs reassurances. He senses that it may be over sooner rather than later and Russian security services have his mug on video. Enough evidence to convict. He also knows that if he is sent for trial in the new Donetsk Republic he will probably face execution, yes, unlike the Russian Federation, the DPR has the death penalty.
The Greek word for ‘spiritism’ in the Bible is Pharmakia from which we get the word pharmacy, which reminds me of an anecdote of a Russian soldier in Mariupol describing how some Azov fighters stood like zombies in open windows oblivious of incoming fire. Of course, the reason for this reckless behaviour was they were high. Large amounts of drugs and syringes have been found at Azov gun positions. Reckless like their befuddled leader, the darling of Kiev and of the deluded elites from Washington to Ottawa who seem to be high on their own ‘spirit’. The same elites who beat their breasts over a single alleged swastika on a trucker’s rally whilst training and funding actual Nazis in Ukraine; a ‘retired’ Canadian general just so happened to be hanging with the Nazis in the Azov Steel works in Mariupol. Russian media is exposing these paradoxes/hypocrisies of Western democracy whilst our media are running circles trying to avoid them.
What happened to ‘Never Again’, Holocaust remembrance days, Holocaust museums, the Lviv pogrom, Babi Yar? The photos of naked women clutching their naked children as they are dispatched by the German and Ukraine Nazis, Where is our anger, our grief and rage now? When we see Ukrainian citizens being tied, stripped and whipped, daubed in green paint, brutalised for unnamed crimes. When we see Ukrainian extremists call openly for the extermination of over a million Russian speakers in their country on TV stations funded by Western embassies or Ukrainian army doctors proudly telling TV audiences they are instructing their army medics to castrate POWs, when will our alarm bells go off?
The West’s media will tell us this is all Putin’s propaganda, strange when the videos of atrocities have come from Ukraine’s own army. I have viewed countless interviews of citizens of Mariupol, randomly on the streets, in their basements and formally by Russian media and all speak of Russia liberating them and of the Ukraine Army routinely abusing them, Azov militiamen using them as human shields, of civilians being shot at when trying to get drinking water, of an elderly woman burned alive in her apartment when the Azov set light to their buildings. The Guardian and the BBC won’t let you see this stuff children, it’s time for bed.
The links to British and American extremists is chilling because rather than being a fringe group of extreme organisations that our security forces need to keep an eye on, there seems to be an official effort to ignore the role they play in recruitment for the militias being trained by NATO and integrated into Ukraine’s main armed forces. Atomwaffen, Centuria, the openly Satanic Order of 9 Angles and the Misanthropic Division, whose flash patches can be seen in Ukraine militias, all recruiting grounds in the US, UK and Europe for the Azov Regiment. Europe’s declining economies, influxes of refugees from the many war-torn areas in the world not least Ukraine (whose refugees seem to be wearing out their welcome already) and the threat of hyperinflation reminds us of Europe in the 1930s. When will our alarm bell’s start ringing?
The UK’s Defense Minister, Ben Wallace, is upbeat. He is hoping these militias will, after their triumphant war with Russia (if there are any left) come to Blighty and train British soldiers on how to deal with Russians…but isn’t that what the British army have been training them to do for eight years, Mr.Wallace? Or will the Nazi integration into our armed forces end rather with them dealing with us?
