"This is a consequence of the appalling discovery of Russian forces' crimes against civilians, in particular in the town of Bucha outside Kyiv. In this situation we pay particular attention to unwanted Russian activities in Norway," Foreign Minister Huitfeldt said in a short statement.


Comment: How can Norway know Russia is responsible for Bucha when no independent investigation has taken place? Moreover, Russia has been blocked by the UN chair, Britain, from presenting evidence that Ukraine is actually responsible; and now, before even hearing the evidence, the UN is holding a vote to suspend Russia from the council.


On Tuesday, Germany expelled 40, Italy 30, France 35, Sweden 3 and Denmark 15 diplomats that will have to pack up and return to Moscow. As of Wednesday, about 20 European countries have told Ambassadors that people in their staff are persona non grata, making the number of Russian diplomats now leaving Europe more than 300.

Comment: As Biden admitted, the intent is to oust Putin from power, with the probable intent to install a US puppet regime, as they did in Kiev, and it seems that since the US proxy war in Ukraine is failing, as are the 6,000 + different sanctions, the establishment in the West is scrambling to isolate Russia by any and every means possible. These expulsions at least help identify just which countries are under the yoke of the US, and to what extent:

A Look at the United States' 'Most Terrible War Crimes' Since World War 2

Speaking before the United Nations Security Council on Tuesday, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky claimed Russia was responsible for "the most terrible war crimes in the world" since World War II amid its ongoing special operation in Ukraine, and demanded Russia's expulsion from UN bodies.

Zelensky was specifically referring to film footage shown to the council of dozens of dead bodies in Bucha, a suburb of Kiev, which the Ukrainian government has claimed were executed by Russian forces before they withdrew from the city last week.The Russian Defense Ministry has dismissed the claims as a provocation, noting that Ukrainian artillery had previously bombarded the town and that Ukrainian police conducted an operation in Bucha to "clear the area of saboteurs and accomplices of Russian troops" prior to news emerging of the alleged massacre, both of which could also be responsible for the deaths.

Regardless, the claim that the Bucha incident represents the worst war crime since the total war that ended in 1945 is clear hyperbole, especially considering the incessant war-making of Ukraine's patron, the United States.

To help jog the memory of the Ukrainian president, we have compiled a few examples of US war crimes since 1945 that have not been investigated as crimes.

Comment: The empire of lies continues with its propaganda and atrocities in Ukraine. Blaming other for something they have done is an insane level of hypocrisy and typical psychopathic behaviour.

This article is a great reminder of just a fraction of the atrocities that they have done in the world after WWII.

Best of the Web: In a break with the past, U.S. is using intel to fight an info war with Russia, even when the intel isn't rock solid

It was an attention-grabbing assertion that made headlines around the world: U.S. officials said they had indications suggesting Russia might be preparing to use chemical agents in Ukraine.

President Joe Biden later said it publicly. But three U.S. officials told NBC News this week there is no evidence Russia has brought any chemical weapons near Ukraine. They said the U.S. released the information to deter Russia from using the banned munitions.

It's one of a string of examples of the Biden administration's breaking with recent precedent by deploying declassified intelligence as part of an information war against Russia. The administration has done so even when the intelligence wasn't rock solid, officials said, to keep Russian President Vladimir Putin off balance. Coordinated by the White House National Security Council, the unprecedented intelligence releases have been so frequent and voluminous, officials said, that intelligence agencies had to devote more staff members to work on the declassification process, scrubbing the information so it wouldn't betray sources and methods.

Observers of all stripes have called it a bold and so far successful strategy — although not one without risks.


Comment: "Intel not rock solid" sounds a lot like "let's make up a bunch of crap" and see what sticks. Doesn't really sound all that much like a winning strategy.

Bucha massacre - when satellite images and videos are manipulated to tell a false story

bucha false flag 1
As the scandal surrounding the Bucha massacre grows, new elements prove that this episode is indeed worthy of the mass graves of Timisoara, between the disinformation of the New York Time which releases satellite images that do not hold water, the Ukraine which releases the video of a drone taken on another day, and the truth which appears in the video filmed by the Ukrainian troops in charge of "cleaning the city".

Following my article of yesterday highlighting several inconsistencies in the official narrative of the Bucha massacre, new information has come to reinforce my analysis.

First, posts from a Telegram channel dedicated to life in Bucha show photos from 31 March 2022, where there are no bodies in the streets. And no mention of them either.

French voters could strike a major blow to globalism

After Emmanuel Macron picked globalism over his country's interests for five years, his main rival Marine Le Pen is drawing closer.

The French are headed to the polls this Sunday, April 10 for the first of two rounds in the country's presidential election. No longer about 'right v left', the contest pits the establishment globalist straightjacket against true democracy and independence. The result has the potential to not just cause a political earthquake in France, but in all of Europe, dealing a major blow to the "rules-based" order of globalists. But will French voters seize the occasion?

There's a long-standing view that Marine Le Pen's far-right National Rally candidacy could never win against an establishment candidate - in this case, incumbent President Emmanuel Macron.

Comment: It seems unlikely Macron is going anywhere, either by fair election or otherwise.

UN Human Rights Council to vote on suspension of Russia - media

UN Human Rights Council in Geneva
The UN General Assembly will vote on Thursday on suspending Russia from the Human Rights Council, French state media AFP reported on Wednesday. Some Western nations are pushing for the expulsion to punish Russia over the conflict in Ukraine.

The US and its allies have argued that it's no longer feasible to have Russia as a member of the UN body after Kiev raised unverified allegations of war crimes against Moscow. Linda Thomas-Greenfield, the US permanent representative to the UN, called Russia's participation "a farce" during a visit to Romania on Monday. Similar sentiments were expressed by officials from nations such as the UK and Canada.

Comment: Interesting timing, because Russia has been trying to get a hearing so it can present evidence that Ukraine is guilty of the Bucha false-flag, however Britain, who just so happens to be heading the council at the moment, has been blocking Russia from doing so: Also check out SOTT radio's: NewsReal: Bucha False-Flag - Sanctions Gas Theater - BRICS Dismantling Dollar Domination

Ukraine will be a 'big Israel' - Zelensky

President Volodymyr Zelensky has warned that Ukraine will look to Israel for inspiration concerning its future security arrangements, arguing that an "absolutely liberal" Kiev is now "impossible" after Moscow's attack in late February.

Speaking to journalists on Tuesday, the president said security would be the "number one" issue for Ukrainians for the next decade, even going so far as to forecast a lasting armed military presence in the streets.


Comment: Zelensky is getting ahead of himself, although this delusional performance is likely intentional, as he probably doesn't want to admit the truth, which is that Ukraine is losing and he probably won't be in his position in 10 months, never mind 10 years.


Comment: One wonders whether the reason for the notable similarities between the two countries is because Israel has had a hand in the creation, direction, and likely soon to be neutralisation, of Ukraine? Also check out SOTT radio's:

Medvedev concisely explained Russia's denazification goal in Ukraine

Denazification will have to be comprehensive and verifiable exactly as it was in defeated Germany after World War II, which is the only way to ensure "the peace of future generations of Ukrainians themselves and the opportunity to finally build an open Eurasia from Lisbon to Vladivostok" like Russia envisions being in everyone's interests.

Former Russian President and current Deputy Chairman of the Security Council Dmitry Medvedev shared another informative post on his Telegram channel, this time concisely explaining the denazification goal of his country's ongoing special military operation in Ukraine. This noble objective has been much-maligned by the US-led Western Mainstream Media (MSM), which gaslights its targeted audience by falsely claiming that no such thing as fascism even remotely exists in Ukraine under its Jewish President.

Medvedev began by reminding everyone of Kiev's spree of consistently discredited psy-ops: the "Ghost of Kiev"; the claim of someone downing a Russian drone with a cucumber jar; the Snake Island incident; the Mariupol maternity and children's hospital bombing; and now Bucha. He then explained how these were all manufactured by a combination of PR agencies, troll factories, and "NGOs". According to him, all these information warfare provocations are being pushed to dehumanize Russia in the world's eyes and advance the anti-Russian ideology of Ukrainian fascism.

Comment: The 'wait' may not be too long for the US to completely lose face and be seen for what it is, as well as what it isn't - should Europe lift a lid and open an eye.

Zelensky says 'No other choice' than to talk to Russia, as Bucha anger rises

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky says there is "no other choice" than to negotiate an end to the war with Russia, even if it's difficult to do amid signs that Russian forces may have committed atrocities against civilians that have sparked widespread condemnation and calls for war crimes investigations.

Speaking in an interview with Ukrainian journalists that was broadcast on state television on April 5, Zelensky called the events in Bucha "unforgiveable," and that
"all of us, including myself, will perceive even the possibility of negotiations as a challenge. The challenge is internal, first of all, one's own human challenge. Then, when you pull yourself together, and you have to do it, I think that we have no other choice."
The interview comes a day after Zelensky made an emotional trip to Bucha outside the capital, where Ukrainian officials say the bodies of civilians have been found, many of them shot in yards, streets, and homes.

In a video address on April 5 to the UN Security Council, Zelensky urged the council to expel Russia and to seek full accountability for war crimes committed in Ukraine.

Comment: Humanitarian corridors agreed upon:
Ukrainian Deputy Prime Minister Iryna Vereshchuk says seven humanitarian corridors will be open on April 5 to evacuate civilians from several hard hit areas, including the southern port cities of Mariupol and Berdyansk. Those leaving the cities will be able to do so only via private transportation and will be able to travel to the city of Zaporizhzhya.

Other corridors will open from the city of Tokmak in the Zaporizhzhya region and the cities of Severodonetsk, Lysychansk, Popasna, and Hirske in the Luhansk region.
"Despite the promises of their leadership, the [Russian] forces are not allowing anyone to travel into Mariupol. They blocked representatives of the International Committee of the Red Cross in Manhush, but after negotiations, they were released last night and sent to Zaporizhzhya."
It was not immediately clear whether Russia has agreed to halt the fighting along the announced corridors.

Meanwhile, the eastern city of Kramatorsk has been hit hard by Russian air strikes in a sign of Moscow's shift to focus its war against Ukraine on the southeast of the country after a series of setbacks, especially around the capital, Kyiv. One of the strikes at around 3 a.m. local time on April 5 destroyed a school in the city center, the AFP news agency reported, citing a reporter at the scene.

The strikes left a large smoldering crater about 10 meters wide next to the damaged school building, and many windows of the building were blown out in the attack, the reporter said.

There were no immediate reports of casualties.
Actions from other parties to effect a particular optic cannot be discounted. The atrocities do not fit Russia's mode of operation. (RFE/RL serves the West.)

Evgeny Norin: Bucha needs to be properly investigated, not used for propaganda

The Russian military offensive in Ukraine is still under way and recent events have sent shockwaves across the globe. A few days after troops withdrew from the small town of Bucha, near Kiev, the Ukrainian authorities reported finding multiple bodies of dead civilians. What happened in Bucha is now being compared to the Srebrenica massacre - the Balkan town which became a symbol of the deadly war in Yugoslavia. Here's what should be kept in mind about this.

Civilian deaths are always a tragedy, without any doubt, and they need to be investigated properly. The rebellion in the Donbass and the military assault now resulting from it can be called one of the bloodiest armed conflicts in the post-Soviet space. The widespread destruction of Mariupol during Moscow's offensive, a group of Russian POWs shot by Ukrainians, and a missile attack on residential areas of Donetsk by Kiev's forces are just some of the atrocities this war has seen so far.

Bucha is another one on this list.
