Cruel treatment of Russian POWs will have unintended consequences

There is a video circulating of Russian POWs being tortured by Ukrainian forces. Unfortunately, what this may precipitate is a more ruthless operation going forward.

If you repost the video here you will be immediately banned.

Ukrainian supremacist MP needs you to hear her out (my translation to English might be illegal!)

Which part of this isn't weird? 1) The fact that Russian is "Putin's language" or 2) The fact that refugees from her own country are somehow the enemy? 3) Or that speaking Russian in Ukraine - many territories of which came from the Russian Empire - is a crime?

This is the level of dumb we are dealing with.

A. Pushkin, "To the slanderers of Russia", 1831.

One thing about Pushkin's poetry is that it is timeless - these words could be about the modern day.

Read by S. Bezrukov, famous actor. Dedicated to foreign mercenaries and handlers.

I found a reasonable translation here, but would personally tweak a few lines. Of course his genius can only be fully appreciated in the original language.

Ukrainian WWII veteran asks what he went to war for?

The support of the Ukrainian government of the atrocities of Neo-Nazism is the highest form of treason.

A proud Nazi - nothing to see here, move right along...

Is this not something to take to the Hague? The last sentence I couldn't decipher.

I do wonder what his grandfather would say.

What the West didn't see - 2015

The people in Donbass asked for a referendum as they didn't want to be associated with this ideology - what was their crime?

In 2015 and 2017, the Watchdog Media Institute released a 22-part video series on Maidan and Kiev’s war on ethnic Russians. Watch the summary 25-minute film and the entire series here.

Azov shoot at kids leaving Mariupol

Sounds like Azov do it for entertainment.

Reminder that Azov do not allow people to leave via humanitarian corridors safely.

Lost granny led to safety

.... then Russian tanks unleash on Azov.

Azov shoot from a residential house (which they say they don't do).

The Russian T-72 tank is able to withstand the British-Swedish made NLAW anti-tank weapon.

"Slava Ukraine" has been replaced by "Slava Azov battalion" 🤔🤯

A little Cossack entertainment

Life without Azov - a preview

📍Kherson. Russian army, Ukrainian civilians, fruit juice.

People of Energodar! A Russian army leaflet says all financial debt is written off

The Russian forces control Melitopol, Berdyansk and other towns of Zaporozhye [central south]. Civilian life is returning there - people can go home, humanitarian aid is being regularly delivered, stores are open, pensions and welfare are being paid.

Consumer debt and any debt for utilities is being written off, moreover, the cost of utlities will shortly go down to standard prices in Russia.

People feel safe, they see that in practice the Russian army poses no danger to them. The Russian army is not an enemy of the Ukrainian people and strives to minimize any losses.

Sensational: There won't be an America in 2024 - Zhirinovsky

This is one of Zhirinovsky's last speeches before he fell ill. In January 2022, the address was met with crickets. Now - it's eerily accurate.

Check out Zhirinovsky's track record of being right.

America in this context means the US construct, not the continent.

"Russians are slow to saddle up, but quick to ride" - DPR sniper.

Snipers are considered the elite of the armed forces. They inflict pinpoint strikes against the enemy, where artillery often cannot reach.

🎩🐇🪄 And with a sleight of hand, the golden Ruble...

The RF Central Bank pegged 1 gram of gold to 5000 rubles (about $50 USD).

From March 31, oil and gas can only be purchased in rubles. Meaning, it is pegged to gold, using paper rubles as a proxy.

Europe will need to either buy rubles in gold, or they will have to buy directly in gold. Which means, there will be a lot more demand for rubles.

Currently, the forex rate for rubles to dollars is about 100:1. But with 5000 rubles now equaling 1 gram of gold, and oil being priced directly in gold - there will be a price disruption in terms of how much gold a dollar can actually buy.

Countries holding dollar debt notes will see less use for them & want to dump them, in order to get something which holds value better. This will have a deflationary effect on rubles.

Russia will be able to re-peg the ruble to gold at whatever rate down the line - 5000 today, tomorrow 500.

The excess dollars being dumped are about to cause hyperinflation....
