While the Bucha propaganda op has been a swimming success in whipping up American fury at fabricated Russian atrocities (the Ukrainian Nationalist Forces have this blood on their hands in my opinion), it has not moved the needle. What is the needle? Convincing the United States, the U.K. and the rest of NATO to enter the fray in Ukraine with actual combatants and NATO operated equipment. NATO is talking tough and posturing like a model in a Madonna video, but when it comes to action–ZIPPO.
As I have noted in previous posts, NATO can send all the material it wants to Ukraine and it means nothing. First, can NATO even ensure the safe delivery of any weapons? The short answer is “no.” Russia already has demonstrated it has the ability to precisely target Ukrainian bases hugging the Polish border and wreak havoc.
Second, let us be generous and assume that the outdated NATO weapon systems get through. Who is going to train the Ukrainians how to use the NATO castaways and where will this training take place? Same problem with weapon delivery–the Russians have attacked and destroyed these training facilities over the course of the last month.
Third, lets assume the weapons are delivered and the recipients are trained; the next challenge is to get this weaponry to the front-lines to engage Russian forces. Good luck with that given Russia’s control of the air and the roadways.
And the capper is that some of the equipment NATO is proposing to provide to Ukraine is hopelessly outdated and outclassed by comparable Russian weapon systems. NATO’s proposed assistance sounds suspiciously like what happens when a suburban couple does spring cleaning and decides to sell useless junk in a garage sale. Ukraine is getting largely useless hand-me-downs.
Speaking of wasted efforts, what about the Bucha flop? Yes, I know the viewers of cable news and mainstream news are howling in anguish and outrage over the alleged Russian mass murder of civilians in the Kiev suburb of Bucha. But that is less than 30 million people in a country of 330 million. Most know nothing about it and could care less.
Are you familiar with the term, “impotent rage?” That is what the United States and its NATO allies are now experiencing. I suspect that the intel folk who helped the Ukrainians stage the Bucha massacre counted on a tidal wave of rage to push NATO into action. But that has not happened. Instead Europe has opted for more angry words and self-defeating economic sanctions.
Part of the problem with getting mileage out of the BUCHA narrative designed to portray Russia as 21st Century storm troopers is the internet. While the establishment media around the world can usually be counted on to deliver the propaganda on demand, the internet is still a wild card that can quickly outrun whatever the conventional media tries to move.
In the case of Bucha, internet sleuths quickly pointed out that the Russians vacated Bucha on the 30th of March; the Mayor of Bucha declared the city free on the 31st without one mention of slaughter; and the bodies on the street did not start showing up until the 2nd of April.
But there is one other big piece of evidence that did not appear–Social Media. I have yet to see a single reference to a social media post from Bucha dated between 30 March and 1 April that had a worried parent, spouse or sibling agonizing over a disappeared relative. Not one post about people being gunned down in the street by fleeing Russians. Not a word.
Give the Russians a pat on the back for keeping the power systems and internet intact in Ukraine. In the normal NATO invasion, destroying the power gird and taking down the internet is usually a top priority. Russia is not following a NATO script in Ukraine.
Whoops!! Looks like the masterminds overseeing this psyop forgot to paint the scenery with the appropriate social media background noise. There are some unconfirmed reports that Britain’s MI6 concocted this macabre theater with the Ukrainian service. If true, this oversight stands as a further indictment of their incompetence.
There is no sign that Russia has decided to curl up into a fetal position and sob brokenheartedly over the bad words the Western world is hurling its way. Nope. Russia continues to behave like a hungry boa constrictor and is slowly, methodically squeezing the life out of the Ukrainian military.
Why would MI6 want to draw in NATO and the US into the war in support for Ukraine? What does Britain stand to loss if Ukraine losses? Maybe one of the Royals stands to be implicated in the sex trade possibly with minors. – just a thought.
Ukraine is the central money laundering and child sex trafficking hub. You can bet the Royals and half of the MPs have their snouts in that trough.
Ever wonder what Ukraine is doing with all the money the US is sending? They can’t spend it on anything. I’ll bet its all landing in Lichtenstein bank accounts of Zelensky and the oligarchs.
Don’t think it’s anything to do with royals
UK PM Boris thinks he’s Churchill, he was being pushed to resign before war. This is a welcome distraction for him.
Brits can act tough as US is there to bail them out
The UK wants the EU to go bankrupt and to develop a infinite hate for Russia.
The UK acts for the USA. It wants the EU as weak as possible and never never include Russia in the EU.
The EU with Russia would be a formidable power that would reduce the UK to a insignificant role in the European continent.
BoJo hates dread that and will do anything to squeeze and trap the EU. Unfortunately the EU leaders let themselves manipulated by the perfidious Albion…until they wake up to the dissolution on the EU
UK always wants to weak EU. Historically did this for hundreds years.
Every time there was a strong European nation, UK tried to destroy it.
There are far too many people and/or news sources who I either don’t trust or cannot stand on the side of Ukraine. Maybe it’s simplistic but that’s one way I’ve been gauging my opinions about events. That Ukraine’s side includes the Two Seans — Penn and Hannity — would almost be enough to alienate me but there are SO many others. I saw a tweet the other day by a reporter for [I think but can’t be sure] The Hill or Politico (neither being conservative websites) in which she outed several bogus Ukraine videos and claims. Unfortunately it falls on the deaf ears of those who want to believe (and perpetuate) The Russian Hoax. The adolescent-like fawning over Zelenskyy and virtue-signalling-Ukraine-flag emoticons — AS IF it costs any blood, sweat and tears to click on one as easily as you would a smiley face — is insufferable. In the meantime, in the real world, lives are being destroyed in what’s obviously a proxy war.
It wasn’t that long ago when the Usual Suspects in our MSM were alarmed and sounding warnings about Ukraine Nazis. Now, meh — “they are what they are”, to quote the Ukrainian munchkin. SMFH…
The math is simple. On Ukraine side; the Bidens, Obama, Hillary Clinton, George Soros, Klaus Schwab, Bojo the Clown, the Atlantic Council, Facebook, Twitter, the Washington comPost , the NYT, CNN and the rest.
If I ever needed reason to doubt the official story the above list does it for me.
It’s about regime change. The Biden admin desperate to do it. Nuland and other extremists have spent careers planning how to take down Russia. This is their moment
Sad to say it looks like they are getting what they want. Not sure Russia can survive Sanctions over longer term.
This is about destroying and controlling Russia. Period.

Simply put – Maybe Putin has to go because he does not believe in the new world order. Putin believes in Russia first – which he should, he is the leader of Russia. According to the elites Putin has to go just like President Trump had to go. The only difference (simply stated) is that President Trump put America first, which he did.

Reading the CIA/MI6 playbook: We saw it coming before, or perhaps while it was happening. Thank you great journalists of truth:

If you doubt Ukraine staged Bucha take a look at this https://t.me/engpravda/605
This video could not have been faked. It show ukrainians executing captured russians soldiers.
You cannot even find a reference to it on Google. Google is solid woke left. They own you tube which is ther very worst at taking off comments.
You may have to use hola.org or other VPN
Any comment on the NYT article that boasts, ‘satellite imagery shows that the bodies appear on the street prior to March 22 in the same positions shown on 4/4 [bold added to show recurring emphasis in article\’

Southfront has an article on the AFU executing Russian POW’s which is chilling and looks real but the do not provide the provenance. https://southfront.org/execution-of-russian-pows-by-afu-and-georgian-fighters-on-march-30-video-21/
The Southfront video is relevant because if its provenance (how did they get it and who did they get it from) can be authenticated, it would show that the Ukrainians are capable of killing civilians and staging Bucha.
Hi Larry, this is Milos from the Czech Republic. Thanks for that page. I come here regularly to look at your analyzes. Democracy is over in the Czech Republic. The ruling parties erase everything that is not blue-yellow. I am afraid that Europe has been drawn into the conflict like sheep for slaughter.
