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.

Ukraine LOST. The Endgame in Ukraine?
Article published by Russia Today (RT) - 25th July 2023:
Russia reveals rapid growth in military production.
Military factories produce more in a month than in all of 2022, but need thousands more workers.
The Russian military-industrial complex could use more than 16,000 more specialized workers, but has nonetheless managed to ramp up production of certain weapons, Trade and Industry MInister Denis Manturov said on Monday.
“Since the beginning of this year, for many types of weapons and special equipment, much more has already been produced than for the whole of last year,” Manturov told a conference in Nizhny Novgorod.
“Speaking about weapons, we are now reaching a level at which deliveries in just one month exceed the total order of last year,” he added.
All defense enterprises are operating at unprecedented levels, Manturov said. The expanded capabilities have resulted in a labor shortage, however.
"In total, taking into account the deployed capacities, we need more than 16,000 specialists only for organizations that ensure the supply of the most popular types of weapons and special equipment,” ranging from line workers to technical specialists and engineers, Manturov explained.
Manturov, who is also a deputy prime minister, asked the heads of Russian regions to address this personnel shortage.
“We need an integrated approach here,” he said, urging the governors to get employment services and human resource specialists involved, as well as offer incentives to university graduates to work in the defense industry.
In the Volga Federal District alone, 106 enterprises are receiving subsidies to expand and accelerate production of weapons, equipment and ammunition, Manturov noted, with a dozen more contracts in the works.
The Russian military-industrial complex has scaled up its activities to support the military operation in Ukraine. The US and its allies have sent over $100 billion worth of weapons, equipment and ammunition to the government in Kiev, while insisting they are not a party to the conflict. The West has also sought to increase military production, with little success so far.
Nizhny Novgorod, known as Gorky during the Soviet Union era, sits on the Volga about halfway between Moscow and Kazan. One of the major industrial enterprises in the 1.2 million community is NMSZ, a subsidiary of Almaz-Antey that manufactures tube artillery and ammunition.

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.

UPDATES TO BE ADDED HERE AS AND WHEN THEY BECOME AVAILABLE OVER THE NEXT 24 HOURS.
THE DOMINO EFFECT OF UKRAINE’S COMING DEFEAT WILL SHAKE ALL WESTERN ELITES
The fall of the Kiev regime that follows closely on the coming defeat of its military forces in the Donbass region will hardly mark the last collapse associated with the enormous mistake the western powers have made through pushing Russia into war with Ukraine.
It is rapidly becoming clear that the Ukrainian people are itching to bring down Zelensky and all his minions. A recent poll conducted by one of George Soros’ many groupings has found that Ukrainians both within the country and outside it by an extremely high percentage agree with the Russian description of the causes of the conflict and NOT with those of their so-called president or the leaders of the western world. Just as soon as they get the chance to exercise their votes the Ukrainian people will ensure that the Zelensky dictatorship and his so-called government will be gone and at the very least a neutral, if not outright pro-Russian president and government, will take their place.
Ukraine will then very quickly become a neutral buffer state between Russia and those that seek to weaken it and split it into controllable parts.
The end of extremist Ukraine will signal the fall of many others across the western world that sought to use it as a tool to undermine Russia. National leaders in the USA, Germany, France and many others will fall in quick succession.
In addition to the politicians who fomented war against Russia via Ukraine there are others who will surely find their reputations severely damaged if not brought crashing down to nought within the media field. The most prestigious titles and channels with the highest numbers of readers and viewers have consistently lied and embroidered the facts, skewing them to such a degree that the result has been a deeply conditioned population within the western world and its allies.
The level of humiliation and teeth-grinding angst resulting from the collapse of the anti-Russian project and the continual rise of Russia in economic terms as well as influence across the Global South and beyond will be enormous. Of course, as with the perpetrators of the crimes against humanity and their attendant lies regarding Iraq, Libya and Syria, no trials will take place. All will be swept under a very bloody carpet as usual. Like Blair and Bush the politicians and editors involved will write their memoirs explaining how they were right to do as they did and how others failed to do the right thing. We all know the drill by now.
But heads WILL roll and behind closed doors all will be known and you can be sure future historians will place blame where it is deserved. One of those who will be held chiefly responsible will be the current president of the USA, Joe Biden. The level of criminality and corruption to be revealed in his case will be truly breathtaking. Along with Biden a host of others in high places will be seen to have acted in the most disgustingly dishonest way imaginable, bringing the entire panoply of elite western life into total disrepute.
The level of change that will occur as a result of the coming collapse of the West’s pet Ukrainian project will be profound. An entire generation of misbegotten politicians will be swept away, lucky not to be tarred and feathered or strung up on the nearest lamp post on their exit. Public faith in politicians, already at an almost impossibly low ebb will fall even further. Only certain figures who have shown their capacity to communicate truthfully will be found at that point to provide an example for all those who follow. Sickened by the lies that have been told across the western world for so long now one man in particular will be held as the example for all politicians to come.
The man who is already extremely highly respected by those in the know and those who know all too well the capacity for dishonesty among the western political and media elites, is Russian president Vladimir Putin. The most frequent and biggest lies of all have been reserved for him. These lies have been told in gushing waterfalls ever since a speech he made in February of 2007 in Munich. Though many will scoff, secure in their belief Vladimir Putin is all that he has been called, these poor wretches will ultimately be seen as the most humiliated and conditioned dupes of all, true victims of the liars who have run the western world for two decades and more now.
Bob Dylan is famous for a particular song he wrote and sang in the Sixties by the name of ‘The Times They Are A-Changin’. A more appropriate anthem for the aftermath of the disgraceful years that the collective west has experienced would be difficult to find. A bonfire of the vanities is about to occur. A searing liquidation of all the political and media liars is coming. Well known names will be made to hang their heads in shame and at least a few of them will admit to their crimes that have cost so many their lives, Ukrainians and Russians both.
Peace was possible. The callous and terminally cynical and dishonest politicians of the western world in league with their mainstream broadcasters and most well known newspaper titles should by rights be put on trial and given the harshest possible sentences for their part in the mass murder that has continued since 2014 in Ukraine and which they seek to continue as this commentary is written. They will receive their comeuppance even if it is not to the fullest degree that they deserve, but it IS coming.
And soon...
