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.

Article published by Russia Today (RT) - 14th July 2023:
Russia won’t give up – Putin.
Moscow has no intention of surrendering to outside pressure, the Russian president has said.
The West had hoped to force Russia into submission by restricting its access to technology, but this is not going to happen, President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday.
“Our opponents expected that we would retreat or surrender, but this will not happen, as we often say in such cases,” he said at the Future Technology Forum event in Moscow.
“Russia will only advance, on a path of its own, while not isolating from anyone,” Putin added. “To external pressure, we will respond only by improving the quality and efficiency of work and spreading freedom.”
The technology embargo imposed by the West in 2022 was an attempt to force Russia to give up sovereignty and the ability to chart its own historical path, the president explained. Moscow responded in the same way it had in 2014, when the first wave of sanctions became an incentive for the rapid development of domestic capabilities. The same “positive processes” that happened with Russian agriculture are now happening with manufacturing and technology, he added.
The Future Technology Forum, dubbed ‘Quantum World: Computing and Communications’, began on July 9 and will conclude on Friday. The exhibit portion of the event, which is open to the public, began on Thursday and features high-tech products from major Russian enterprises, ranging from nuclear giant Rosatom to Sberbank.

SUPPORTING SCOTT RITTER
I've been listening to Scott Ritter describe how things are for him and I suspect have been for him for quite some time now.
He has been doing a LOT of unpaid work with a great many interview requests coming in that he has been ready and willing to agree to. But the work where receives some pay for have suffered due to this, being left until the wee small hours of the night to complete work on.
Scott, I think you will agree, has been one of the most influential voices out there on Russia and Ukraine.
I was moved by Scott's words to take an annual subscription to his Substack account that he runs in coordination with his colleague on 'U.S. Tour of Duty', Jeff Norman. This is the main way that Scott recommends to help him with finances with which to upgrade his delivery of comment on Russia and Ukraine, via a better microphone etc. and perhaps the creation of a recording studio in his basement to create a more professional and impressive look. To invest in these things he would like to be sure that this has a viable financial future.
Would you also like to help by subscribing at one of the various levels to Scott's Substack account? I hope so. If so the link is here:
Below you'll find the edited part of the video where Scott talks of his commitments to get the facts out on events in Ukraine and of the finances that would come in handy to enhance their delivery:

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.

UKRAINE: PR WINDOW DRESSING & ENDLESS LIES HAVE NEVER WON A SINGLE WAR
The regime in Kiev, its official spokespersons, media talking heads in western Ukraine and its apologists across the western world have mastered many of the dark arts of public relations, assisted by a reported 50+ actual PR companies. More than that they seem to operate constantly on the basis that the bigger the lie the better the result in terms of some kind of “winning” according to their own lights.
Meanwhile, the pawns in this dark game, the cannon-fodder of poorly trained and equipped Ukrainian troops die in their droves, told to stand, fight and die… all to provide a ‘useful’ message to send to the western nations insisting they fight to the last Ukrainian. Each major town is talked of as the crucial place that will determine the fate of the war and due to the PR blitz conveyed compliantly by western press and media places that cannot be defended are lost with massive loss of lives. Then the next media blitz relates that the place was not really all that important and anyway Ukraine made a successful retreat and its supply lines will be shorter now.
The lies have been gushing in waterfall proportions with both Kiev and its western sponsors being equally economical with the truth. And their reliable envoys within the elite western media lie factory that used to be known as an industry related to journalism spreads a consistently false picture. False confidence and further calls for more war proceeds from all this magical thinking, purposeful lying and PR gushing, this transfers to ever more Ukrainian troops being sent to die horrible deaths for nothing… for nothing at all… except to contribute to the hollow facade both sets of elites, Kiev and western require.
Zelensky has become a puppet many times over. A man who sought election on a platform of bringing peace was twisted out of shape into favouring the direct opposite and now resembles a complete parody of a military man. He dances to many tunes now, mostly of a western origin, his “strings” dangling quite clearly as his various coaches urge this or that pretence next. However, none of this is anything approaching newly acquired expertise. The USA and UK are past masters at cynical and rather professional deception.
Psychological and Black Operations are seen as vital facets of modern warfare. The teams who arrange various counterfeit events and can counterfeit almost anything from documents to false flag campaigns to thinly disguised propaganda seeded to complain media worldwide are very proficient in these dark arts. In recent decades they have been working overtime and without doubt have vastly expanded their numbers and range of their activities. The result is a massive corruption of what was left of integrity after the decisions to allow torture and much else besides after 9/11.
But even acknowledging the massive power that lies, PR, propaganda and media conditioning can have… can they in tandem, influential as they are, win a war? An honest observation of the progress of events in Ukraine tend strongly to the conclusion that they cannot. Russia continues to take territory and grind down Ukrainian military resistance taking out up to 1,000 Ukrainian troops daily, either killed or injured. It is a lie that ever more weapons sent to Ukraine will win the war. Ukraine was NEVER going to win the war. Russia was ALWAYS going to win. But a sham exercise giving the theatre of deceit some minimum credence was needed to preserve elite reputations even in the face of complete military and economic disaster.
The show must go on, right? NATO must have its showpieces, the EU too… and Biden and co. of course. The right words must be written by the speech writers and delivered faithfully from the auto cue to give the right impression and fix the right narrative. We are winning. Ukraine is winning. All will be well… as Ukrainians lie groaning in pools of their own blood, and that of their brothers in arms. But as long as the message conveyed is positive and as long as western politicians along with Zelensky believe their own reputations are being served… the Ukrainians will continue to groan, scream and die… for nothing more than that. A PR facade for an elite that in reality cares for precious little more than itself.
