THERE is a narrative in the West of goodies and baddies in the Ukraine war, "and if you do not talk in that narrative, then you are a baddie," controversial MEP Clare Daly said today.

A section of the Irish establishment who never wanted neutrality now see the Ukraine invasion as an opportunity to end it completely, she warned.

Meanwhile, EU militarism and NATO are two sides of the same coin, and the arms industry is profiting hugely from the current conflict.

This was not to absolve Russia, which is "100 per cent responsible" for invading Ukraine, Ms Daly told the Casement summer school in Dun Laoghaire today.


Comment: Well, Russia is responsible in the sense that it is responsible for its actions, however in terms of international norms, experts from across the globe have been warning for decades that Russia would be forced to respond to the threat NATO posed to its security.


Comment: The subservience to the agenda in Ukraine is destroying what's left of Europe's economy and its democracy:

Moscow did not explicitly confirm or deny a claim made by Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett on 5 May, in which he said that Russian President Vladimir Putin apologized to him for the controversial comments made by the Kremlin's top diplomat earlier this week.

Bennett claimed that during a phone conversation with Putin, the Russian leader had offered an apology over Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov's claim that Adolf Hitler possibly had "Jewish blood."

Hours later, the Kremlin issued a statement that included the full content of the conversation, making no mention of an apology.

Comment: Indeed, relations between the rogue state of Israel and Russia do appear to be deteriorating rather significantly. Although this is part of growing global division between those nations pushing the West's nefarious agenda to isolate Russia and those unwilling to be subservient to it: See also: Zelensky is Not in Charge of Ukraine, Nazis Are - And They Believe They Are on a Mission From God to 'Derussify Ukraine in Holy War'

Clinton campaign 'just made stuff up' about Trump/Russia, former FBI intel chief says

A former head of FBI intelligence says that the Clinton campaign "just made stuff up" about former President Donald Trump in 2016 to paint him as a Russian asset.

Retired Assistant Director for Intelligence Kevin Brock is a vocal critic of the FBI's handling of allegations that Trump colluded with Russian agents to influence the 2016 election. In a Wednesday appearance on "Just the News, Not Noise," Brock said that evidence discovered in special counsel John Durham's investigation shows that former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's campaign, not Trump's, used "contrived disinformation" to mislead voters.

"This is more than just political dirty tricks," Brock said. "Political dirty tricks usually have some foundation in truth. But they just made stuff up."

Human Events Daily host Jack Posobiec mentioned how Elon Musk, after having bought Twitter, is using the platform to call out organizations that he considers to be pro-censorship.

"Because Elon Musk is making these moves, he's ruffling some feathers," Posobiec said.


Comment: More and more it's being revealed what a huge thorn in the side of the elites Elon Musk is becoming. Their loss of Twitter as a propaganda platform is obviously a serious blow, even though one would think it's rather mundane.

Flashback Neo-Nazis and the Far Right Are On the March in Ukraine

Five years ago, Ukraine's Maidan uprising ousted President Viktor Yanukovych, to the cheers and support of the West. Politicians and analysts in the United States and Europe not only celebrated the uprising as a triumph of democracy, but denied reports of Maidan's ultranationalism, smearing those who warned about the dark side of the uprising as Moscow puppets and useful idiots. Freedom was on the march in Ukraine.

Today, increasing reports of far-right violence, ultranationalism, and erosion of basic freedoms are giving the lie to the West's initial euphoria. There are neo-Nazi pogroms against the Roma, rampant attacks on feminists and LGBT groups, book bans, and state-sponsored glorification of Nazi collaborators.

These stories of Ukraine's dark nationalism aren't coming out of Moscow; they're being filed by Western media, including US-funded Radio Free Europe (RFE); Jewish organizations such as the World Jewish Congress and the Simon Wiesenthal Center; and watchdogs like Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, and Freedom House, which issued a joint report warning that Kiev is losing the monopoly on the use of force in the country as far-right gangs operate with impunity.

Five years after Maidan, the beacon of democracy is looking more like a torchlight march.

Comment: This article describes perfectly clear what Vladimir Putin meant when Russia started the special operation for denazification and demilitarisation in Ukraine. Now we can see from a better perspective what is going on in Ukraine and against what kind of evil is Russia fighting in Ukraine.

'Don't patronize us', India reminds EU official it has abstained over numerous UN resolutions regarding proxy-war in Ukraine

India's Permanent Representative to the United Nations, TS Tirumurti, has accused the Netherlands of "patronizing" his country after the Dutch ambassador to the UK publicly scolded New Delhi for abstaining on UN General Assembly resolutions on the war in Ukraine.

"Kindly don't patronise us, Ambassador. We know what to do," Tirumurti wrote in a tweet to Dutch envoy Karel van Oosterom on Thursday.

Tirumurti's tweet came in response to van Oosterom's (now-deleted) warning that India "should not have abstained" from votes pertaining to Russia and the war in Ukraine and that it should "respect the UN Charter."

Comment: This comes on the heels of recently ousted PM Imran Khan who, also in response to Western pressure, said: 'Are we your slaves?'

The great currency reset and why Europe is trapped

There's a lot of news flying around about the changes happening in global currency trading.

From "Gas for Rubles" to "What the Hell is Going on With the Yen?" there are a lot of questions and very few answers as to what it all means and whose on which side of the divide.

The Fed just hiked 50 basis points for the first time since 2000 and will be running off its balance sheet forcing the Treasury to stop issuing new debt at stupid rates. The European Union unveiled a sixth sanctions package against Russia which calls for a complete embargo of all Russian oil.

Further to this the EU is now aping what the Trump Administration tried to do to Iran in 2018, sanctioning all services, including insurance, to all shippers of oil from doing any business with Russia and sanctioned Russian banks.
The bloc is proposing to ban European vessels and companies from providing services — including insurance — linked to the transportation of Russian oil and products globally as part of its new sanctions package, according to officials and a draft document seen by Bloomberg.

While member states are still wrangling over the terms, it's a potentially powerful tool because 95% of the world's tanker liability cover is arranged through a London-based insurance organization called the International Group of P&I Clubs that has to heed European law.
These sanctions, effectively politicizing every aspect of international business and trade, are ultimately nothing more than short-term annoyances for Russia or anyone else.

It betrays a mindset that cares nothing for the downstream effects of these actions and, if anything, betrays the desperation felt in Brussels today about its position in the global market.

The 'Bill of Temporary Privileges': Americans have no rights

Last week, the director of National Intelligence, the data-gathering and data-concealing arm of the American intelligence community masquerading as the head of it, revealed that in 2021, the FBI engaged in 3.4 million warrantless electronic searches of Americans. This is a direct and profound violation of the right to privacy in "persons, houses, papers, and effects" guaranteed by the Fourth Amendment.

For the past 60 years, the Supreme Court has characterized electronic surveillance as a search that can only be conducted pursuant to a warrant issued by a judge based on probable cause of crime, which itself must be presented under oath to the judge. The warrant must specifically describe the place to be searched and the person or thing to be seized.

By failing to comply with these constitutional requirements, the FBI violated the natural and constitutionally protected right to be left alone of millions of Americans.

Yet, all of this was perfectly lawful. How can government behavior be both lawful and unconstitutional at the same time and in the same respect?

Leftists direct protesters to intimidate conservative Supreme Court justices at their homes

Leftist activists are directing protestors to confront conservative Supreme Court Justices at their homes in Maryland and Virginia.

Justices John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Amy Coney Barrett, Samuel Alito, Brett Kavanaugh, and Neil Gorsuch are all targets by an organization called, "Ruth Sent Us." The organization has published the justices' supposed home addresses online for the radical protestors to locate.

Ruth seems to be a reference to Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who was an ardent defender of the right to abortion. But this group's use of her name is ironic, because Ginsburg was very collegial with her conservatives colleagues, including her best friend, Justice Antonin Scalia, and because Ginsburg criticized Roe as a bad decision, despite agreeing with its conclusion.

The group's website states:
"Our 6-3 extremist Supreme Court routinely issues rulings that hurt women, racial minorities, LGBTQ+ and immigrant rights. We must rise up to force accountability using a diversity of tactics."
The website also asked protestors to "rise up May 8-15 and beyond... At the homes of the six extremist justices, three in Virginia and three in Maryland." The site says the main protest is scheduled for May 11.

Comment: Disintegration is running the gamut. The goal: Total disengagement of society.

US nuclear commander warns of deterrence 'crisis' against Russia and China

The head of U.S. Strategic Command, which oversees the nuclear arsenal, warned Congress Wednesday that Washington faces a heightened nuclear deterrence risk when it comes to Russia and China. Adm. Charles Richard told the Senate's strategic forces panel:
"We are facing a crisis deterrence dynamic right now that we have only seen a few times in our nation's history. The war in Ukraine and China's nuclear trajectory — their strategic breakout — demonstrates that we have a deterrence and assurance gap based on the threat of limited nuclear employment."
Richard sits on the Nuclear Weapons Council, and his appearance came during the first hearing assembled by the Senate Armed Services strategic forces subcommittee. The panel was set to hear testimony from the interagency panel's six voting members who are tasked with managing nuclear policy.

Comment: If you don't want a deterrence problem, don't negate nuclear treaties!
