In August 2026, I published a detailed article about Germany’s secret continued supplies of firearms to Ukraine, in which I also mentioned the MK 556 deliveries to the Kastus Kalinoŭski Regiment. They have now published a very detailed video about this assault rifle 👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=b_7a...

Over 70 civilians have been murdered in Ukraine in just over 24 hours, by a state on the UN Security Council, which vetoes every action or even vote against it. Three more innocent people have died in Kyiv this morning, though here a very luck escape from one downed drone.

This is exactly right. When Trump - in the one out of a thousand times - gets misread or misinterpreted, he *runs with it*, because it makes his critics look obsessive and stupid. Firehosing people until they freak about everything is the strategy, and it works.

This is how journalist Anna Politkovskaya described Putin. Anna Politkovskaya was killed in Moscow 20 years ago, on Putin’s birthday. Twenty years after her murder, the EU once again called for all those responsible to be identified and brought to justice.
