Секретарь совета национальной безопасности и обороны Украины Алексей Данилов просит СМИ снизить накал вокруг ситуации с безопасностью в стране и не сеять панику.

Всё же логично. Несколько лет рассказывать про «российские танки на Украине», ввести термин «страна-агрессор», переписать под это все законы, каждый день требовать санкций и денег на защиту, а потом попросить СМИ «не сеять панику».
Так они её и не сеют. Она у них проросла. А «киевский режим» теперь пожинает.

Propaganda in full swing here.

The gun pictured appears to be a Zbroyar Z-15 rifle, which comes with a price tag of around $2,000.

That's somewhere in the region of four months *official* salary for an "ordinary Ukrainian."

Bolivia’s police intercepted a weapons shipment sent from the United States to the separatist region of Santa Cruz, the hub of violent far-right groups that led the coup in 2019.

Why Washington Will Soon Dump Ukraine's President Zelensky

https://www.moonofalabama.org/2022/01/why-washington-will-soon-dump-ukraines-president.html

Putin congratulates mainstream media on the sheer gravity of its subversion!
With the NATO war drums beating for Ukraine, it appears the "defense alliance" is counting on Russia to make the first move. And when it doesn't - it can be made to look like it did. It wouldn't be the first time after all...

Let's go back to 2008 when Georgian tanks, under the guidance of tie-eating puppet Saakashvili, rolled into Tskhinvali (a disputed de facto republic of South Ossetia, on the border with Russia's North Ossetia); the usual culprits reported these to be Russian tanks - CNN, BBC, Reuters etc.

Russian tanks did roll in when several Russian peacekeepers in the region were killed - blowing Georgian forces out of the water, decisively ending the stand off. "What did you expect we would do - come at you with a slingshot?" - Putin asks.

China, Where Everything Vanishes
https://www.moonofalabama.org/2022/01/china-where-everything-vanishes.html

Editors and headline writers in the 'western' press seem to have certain cliches about certain countries. It is why one can make lists with 111 headlines which say that Russia is weaponizing this or that. Another one is that whatever...

Amazing what can happen when you talk to Russia, using old fashioned diplomacy, instead of issuing threats to Moscow.

NATO members could perhaps learn something from neutral Ireland.

China's GDP has surpassed that of the European Union for the first time in history in 2021, one year earlier than previously estimated, as EU posted its whole-year GDP performance on Monday.
