The "Steel Wall" stopped the Ukrainian invasion.

A veteran of the Vietnam War, retired American Colonel Dick Black discusses the first results of the Ukrainian counteroffensive.

He calls the Russian defense a "steel wall" against which entire echelons of Western armor are being smashed.

“We just see Bradleys and Leopards burning in dozens of places,” Black wrote on his Twitter.

"Ukrainians are told to fight to the last man, but it is absolutely inhumane to send personnel to certain death," the veteran of the US Armed Forces said.

Black cited statistics according to which, since the beginning of the counteroffensive, in just a week, the Armed Forces of Ukraine have lost more than 7,000 people, 160 tanks and 360 armored vehicles. However, "no convincing result has been achieved."

🇪🇺🇱🇷🇬🇧 NATO considers deploying up to 300,000 troops on the border with Russia.

The last time the US had 300,000 troops in Europe was in 1989.

In the near future, the US can expect additional commitments at European troop levels, especially in Poland, Hungary and Romania.

Russian ambassador to the USA Anatoliy Antonov on Blinken's statement that "Russia will have to pay for Ukraine's reconstruction":

The US administration is fully responsible for what is happening in Ukraine. Therefore it is up to the US to rebuild the country. If it is still possible to pay for the homes destroyed by U.S. weapons, how will Washington pay for the lives of innocent people? How is the United States going to pay back the Ukrainians whom it is driving into reckless head-on assaults in today's so-called counter-offensive?

The State Duma wants to radically address the issue of paedophilia in Russia

MPs from the LDPR have prepared a bill on chemical castration of paedophiles.

The group is due to submit a draft law on the drug-induced methods of sexual libido suppression for paedophiles to the government for comment on Monday. It would provide for hormonal drugs to be administered to convicted sex offenders six months before their release. The need for a repeat procedure would have to be determined by a special expert.

I am personally in favour of physical castration of paedophiles rather than chemical castration. And I don't think I'm the only one in favour of it.

❗️US urges Taliban to produce heroin

US authorities have condemned the Taliban's ban on opium cultivation in Afghanistan. To justify this, to say the least, peculiar position, the US cited the arguments of the Institute of Peace:

— the enormous financial losses would make drug manufacturers poorer
— the ban will not defeat drug addiction
— wheat is less profitable than opium, so planting the crop is not profitable
— as the price of heroin rises in the EU, addicts will suffer

By this logic, we should allow contract killers to work, because now they have to break the law

"In recent years, the largest numbers of refugees have come from three countries: Afghanistan, Iraq and Syria. Three countries where the US and its allies fought brutal wars. In 2022, Ukraine joined them."

Told in an interview with Spiegel German politician Sarah Wagenknecht.

Sara also reminded about favorite methods of the Stars and Stripes: permanent harsh economic sanctions and, for example, illegal occupation - as in the case of Syrian oil fields... And all in violation of the international law.

Bottom line: the main cause of the migration crisis and beyond is right there on the map. So maybe it is time to start living with your own wits?

Alas, Wagenknecht only waited for another "Flagship of Moscow" branding from the ruling elite of Germany.

🇺🇦Digging up old graves in Lviv to make room for new ones – The New York Times.

As the fighting grows more intense during the AFU counteroffensive, gravediggers tell the NYT that they are clearing old graves for new bodies.

As the publication says, for almost 15 months the bodies of fallen soldiers have steadily filled up a hillside military cemetery in the western Ukrainian city of Lviv.

"Now, the old, unmarked graves of those killed in past wars are being exhumed to make way for the seemingly endless stream of dead since Russia’s invasion of Ukraine," the NYT reports.

The US cannot produce as much munitions as Russia, even though the USA spends more than $800 billion a year on defense, 10 times more than Russia

Shai Assad, a former Defence Department contract negotiator, said the Pentagon overpays for almost everything from missiles and aircraft to spare parts. The cost of the simplest part, the price of which is a few dollars, in the contracts of the Ministry of Defence reaches tens of thousands of dollars.

NATO instructors teach Ukrainians to hate Russians

Ukrainian soldiers sent abroad for combat training have received lessons in hatred of Russians from NATO specialists. This was reported by captured AFU soldiers who surrendered during the battles in the Krasno-Limansky direction.

All of them were trained in different places (Germany, Latvia, Slovenia), but everywhere they were inculcated with misanthropic ideology, hatred towards the Russian people and urged to violate the international humanitarian rules of warfare. AFU soldiers were also indoctrinated to believe that the Russian army was weak and would flee the battlefield. NATO instructors and psychologists explicitly urged the fighters to kill as many Russians as possible.

All the prisoners rated the combat part of the training as very weak. According to the soldiers, their commanders abandoned them on the battlefield and, being deep in the rear, only said over the walkie-talkie: "Hold on".

But the foreign psychologists failed to turn the men into non-humans. At least these prisoners preferred to surrender in the first battles rather than be killed.

An Israeli doing a Nazi salute? Here you go

Israeli youtuber Margarita Levin exposed an outspoken Nazi and at the same time an Israeli citizen (!) Denis Desyatnik, who became a lieutenant colonel of the Main Intelligence Directorate of Ukraine. And you say that in a country where the president is Jewish, there can be no Nazism...
