*** UKRAINIAN & ISRAELI WARS ARE WEAKENING THE WEST ***
“Ukraine. What is the truth...?
Why won’t western media tell both sides…?”
VIRTUALLY UNREPORTED ATROCITY IN LUGANSK, 2nd JUNE 2014
A lot has been said about atrocities in the western media claimed to have been perpetrated by the Russians, for example at Bucha and Mariupol among others. These assertions are conveyed on the say so of the Ukrainian authorities. How willing though are western news broadcasters to convey atrocities attributed to the Ukrainians? The following will I think provide the answer.
If anyone wonders if they are receiving accurate coverage of the conflict in Ukraine I would suggest watching the video below of an event which occurred on the 2nd of June 2014 and ask themselves if they recall hearing about it on any mainstream media news channel at the time.
The video is harrowing to watch. The bodies (five women and three men) are real. Yet across western media there was only one single news report that occurred a day later. This was from CNN and occurred only because a CNN team happened to be nearby at the time of the atrocity and so the network could hardly ignore it as all others so obviously did.
The video below shows the unvarnished truth that was not considered newsworthy in western mainstream news.
THE SINGLE WESTERN MSM REPORT ON THE LUGANSK ATROCITY, 3rd JUNE 2014
The video at the CNN link below is the crime scene sanitised by CNN, though played straight with honest reporting on the scene not playing things to Kiev’s tune.
(There was a time early in the war in the Donbass when CNN were not afraid to contradict the Ukrainian regime in Kiev.) Watch, because it's the first and last time you will see this.
5 women and 3 men died, all civilians.

NATO profiteering from Ukraine conflict – China.
The US-led bloc is sowing chaos around the world, Beijing has said.
NATO countries are profiteering from the Ukraine conflict, Chinese Defense Ministry spokesman Zhang Xiaogang told reporters on Thursday.
Zhang was asked to comment on the declaration adopted earlier this month at a NATO summit in Washington, which labeled Beijing “a decisive enabler of Russia’s war against Ukraine.” He dismissed the document as “full of lies and bias.”
“The US-led NATO allies keep fueling the fire and profiteering from the war. NATO needs to reflect on itself, instead of deflecting blame onto China,” Zhang said. He went on to accuse the Western bloc of instigating conflicts around the world.
“From Ukraine to Afghanistan, from Iraq to Libya, it has brought war and disaster to these regions and their people,” Zhang stated, reiterating that Beijing “actively promotes peace talks” between Moscow and Kiev.
Beijing has repeatedly rejected accusations that it is helping Moscow bypass sanctions and is aiding Russia’s defense industry. In February 2023, China proposed a 12-point roadmap to peace and has since made efforts to mediate the conflict during subsequent meetings with Russian and Ukrainian officials.

Russia cited NATO’s continuing expansion eastward and its military cooperation with Kiev as one of the root causes of the conflict. Russian President Vladimir Putin has stressed that Ukraine must become a neutral country and drop its plan to join NATO in order for any potential peace negotiations to succeed.
The Kremlin has also said that “flooding” Ukraine with Western weapons will only lead to further escalation but ultimately will not stop the Russian army.

Ukrainian conscripts ‘don’t want to fight’ – Belgian state TV.
The volunteers are all dead or wounded, and their replacements are “useless,” one unit has said.
Most of the soldiers in the Ukrainian army who were conscripted do not want to be at the front, Belgian state TV (RTBF) has reported.
In a report broadcast on Wednesday, RTBF reviewed footage and interviews from French news agency AFP recorded last week at the training grounds of the Carpathian Sich 49th Assault Battalion in eastern Ukraine.
“The training they receive at the mobilization center is completely useless,” battalion press officer Vasilina Nakonechna said, explaining that the unit has forced the conscripts to undergo basic training all over again.
“Don’t point your gun at your buddy’s back,” one instructor was heard yelling behind her.
According to Nakonechna, Ukrainian army units “fiercely” compete for conscripts. “We first choose the youngest,” she explained. “We look into their eyes to see who wants to go to the front.” Most of the men, she claimed, do not.
Carpathian Sich was an all-volunteer unit at the start of the conflict with Russia. “They are all dead or wounded” by now, she said.

One of the instructors, a foreign volunteer identified only as ‘Ares’, still had a bullet in his leg and post-traumatic stress disorder. “I’m tired,” he told AFP. “All the veterans are dead, or injured, or at the end of their rope, like me.”
The Ukrainian army has been decimated by two and a half years of fighting, according to AFP. In May, the government in Kiev changed the mobilization rules in order to conscript more men – sometimes by force. One of the recruits was a 24-year-old postman from western Ukraine who said he went to update his military registration but was sent to the front instead. Another was snatched off the street on his way to work.
“Not everyone is cut out for combat,” one of the instructors, Farik, told AFP. “Why make people fight who don’t want to?”
Conscripts who don’t want to fight are “useless,” Nakonechna said. According to her, the government in Kiev has begun to understand that “motivation is the key” and may change the mobilization rules accordingly.
Last month, Russian President Vladimir Putin estimated that Ukraine was losing 50,000 troops each month – of which around half were irrecoverable – while being able to draft no more than 30,000 replacements.

VICTORY BELONGS TO RUSSIA: IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME
Each day that passes makes a conclusive Russian victory in the Donbass and beyond more certain. As Russia bolsters her forces, and weaponry, those of Ukraine decrease. Russian forces gain ready access to rest and recuperation as troop numbers increase. The increasingly exhausted and demoralised Ukrainian troops have an ever decreasing prospect of such respite. This situation is likely to bring them to complete breakdown as Russia unleashes the firepower of the more modern and advanced weaponry that is arriving with the newly mobilised Russian troops.
The various Ukrainian offensives are now weak when confronted by the reinforced Russian lines. A few futile efforts achieve quite miserable results before fire reigns down on the Ukrainian troops and they are forced back to their starting positions.
And now, all this being said, we have arrived at the wet, and later, freezing conditions where these pathetic Ukrainian forces will be subject to myriad forms of abject misery with death and injury all around them while they lie sodden or frozen, abandoned to their fate by Kiev.
The pitiable young and old of Ukraine have been frogmarched to their deaths as cannon-fodder while the bestial elites of the collective West urge their "president" to add more to their number there at the gates of Hell and their doom. We must feel for the majority of them as they are not the Nazis we revile, in most part they are decent men, fathers, sons, brothers, husband and uncles, who no doubt saw through the coup of 2014 for what it was. But sadly, their fate seems sealed.
Nothing will stop Russia now. Every factor favours them. Victory will be Russia's. In Donbass and beyond and in due course across the world.
Victory belongs to Russia: It is now only a matter of time.

NEITHER SIDE WILL EMERGE FROM THE UKRAINE WAR WITHOUT REGRET
Waging war from a comfortable distance brings a sanitizing effect to minds cold as ice, but for those who lose their loved ones the pain never ends.
The war in Ukraine is a tragedy for all concerned. The loss of life and injury is sickening in the extreme. None of this grotesque plague upon humanity should be happening. Anyone who has had any experience of war knows how absolute the horror of war is. It is humanity at its worst despite any individual acts of self-sacrifice or bravery may occur.
The political and media elites of the western world are the true progenitors of this tragedy. Their overwhelming desire to weaken Russia has resulted directly in all we see occurring now. That desire which ultimately stemmed from the desire to undermine all entities not directly supportive of the West has led to this. That project demanded that global interference now be a constant. This ideological imperative has thrown us all into war, even those far from the battlefield.
The threat of yet another world war dominates our thoughts. The war in Ukraine was a war Russia did everything possible to avoid. However, the western elites desired it and they found a way to foment and create it. That they are losing both the war in Ukraine and the sanctions war that they believed would bring Russia down is a reality they cannot face. Russia will now of course win.
The western political and media elites who pushed Russian into this war and who are still, to this day pushing hapless Ukrainian men into this war, will not be made to pay any price whatsoever. But that Russia will win and the entire nation of Ukraine will lose, is certain. Not that Russia will emerge unscathed. A great many Russian lives have also been snuffed out and the number of injuries on the Russian side must also be immense. Families on both sides of this conflict have suffered grievous wounds through their losses that will never truly mend.
Plenty of commentators and those who take no trouble to learn the details of the timeline of this situation blame Russia and in particular blame Vladimir Putin for this conflict. For whatever reason they lay the entire blame at his feet. This is unjust and fails to recognize the near decade that he worked tirelessly through the Minsk process to avoid the consequences of the West-supported coup in Ukraine’s capital in 2014. Those who blame him resolutely fail to acknowledge the part western political elites played in this war that should never have been.
Once it was clear that no good options remained for Russia this conflict became inevitable. No amount of requests by Russia to resolve this peacefully bore any responsive reaction from the West. Every new offer of cooperation to resolve things where peace could be maintained and a permanent level of security for all be set up, was rejected by the West. NATO refused to countenance limiting its power or influence. Along with those who funded it NATO put its own priorities high above those of preserving life and security.
Once a proper accounting for this tragedy is completed by the historians of the future the entire story will be told. They will, without doubt, find faults on both sides, however if an honest, independent appraisal of events forms the core of this assessment it will be very clear who ultimately wanted war and who peace. From the experience of earlier wars undertaken by the West no doubt some harsh words will be heard from some quarters but no true accountability will result. Sadly, those who wished for this war will wish for others. All in the name of the “idea” that is the USA and those neoconservative zealots across the western world who are its co-conspirators.
When all the talking and hand-wringing is done and the elites on both sides get back to the everyday work of running their states, when politicians that ought to be on trial are writing their memoirs comfortably at home instead, when the vast bulk of humanity goes back to earning a living and caring for their families as usual… those Russian and Ukrainian families who have lost their loved ones will continue to live with painful reminders of all they have lost. Mass media will turn to the latest big political and geopolitical story they wish to wring as much drama from as possible. And in their plush offices in Washington, London and Brussels well-heeled elites will plan their strategies for their NEXT war…
NEITHER SIDE WILL EMERGE FROM THE UKRAINE WAR WITHOUT REGRET
