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.

PROFESSOR JOHN J MEARSHEIMER: WHERE IS THE UKRAINE WAR GOING?
Article published by Russia Today (RT) - 14th June 2023:
What Putin told war correspondents about Ukraine conflict.
The Russian president addressed the current offensive, long-term goals, and whether a new mobilization is needed.
The goals of Moscow’s military operation in Ukraine have not changed and are in fact being served by Kiev’s latest offensive, Russian President Vladimir Putin told a gathering of war correspondents at the Kremlin on Tuesday.
Putin also addressed Ukraine’s glorification of Nazi collaborator Stepan Bandera, the ongoing fighting on the southern front, and the fallout from the Kakhovka Dam disaster, among other things.
Moscow’s objectives remain unchanged
The goals laid out in February 2022 are “essential” and while some details are subject to change based on the developing situation, they remain fundamentally the same, Putin said. Demilitarization of Ukraine is happening “gradually and methodically,” with Kiev’s troops now entirely reliant on Western weapons, equipment and ammunition, unable to produce anything locally. There has been progress on protecting the people of Donbass, though Ukraine continues to bombard them. If Kiev’s drone strikes and incursion continue, Moscow may consider setting up a “buffer zone” in Ukrainian territory, to keep them out of range. “No fundamental changes have taken place today in terms of the goals that we set for ourselves at the beginning of the operation,” Putin said.
Progress of Ukraine’s offensive.
Kiev launched a large-scale offensive on June 4, using the troops and equipment provided by the West, but without success in any sector. “They’re taking heavy casualties. Greater than ours” by a factor of ten, said the Russian president. Equipment-wise, Ukraine has already lost up to 30% of what the West has provided, including three times as many tanks as Russia.
Why Russia is not like Ukraine.
“We are a government of laws, they behave like a regime based on terror,” Putin said in response to a question about introducing martial law to deal with assassinations of journalists and public figures such as Darya Dugina and Vladlen Tatarsky, or the attack on Zakhar Prilepin. Russia “cannot use terrorist methods,” but will step up the work of security services to counter Kiev’s plots, he said, adding that there is no need to introduce martial law.
Will there be another mobilization?
More troops will be needed if there is a decision to march on Kiev, but not under the current circumstances, the Russian president said. On top of the 300,000 reservists called up last fall, more than 150,000 people have signed up for contract service, at a rate of 9,500 a week. Conscripts doing their regular service have also seen battle in Belgorod, and acquitted themselves admirably.
On the role of industry in the conflict.
Russia began overhauling its defense industry eight years ago, but the conflict made clear the remaining shortcomings, Putin said, such as the availability of drones. Since the start of hostilities, the Russian industry has increased production up to tenfold for certain systems, with some companies operating in three shifts. Meanwhile, Ukraine’s capabilities have been almost entirely eliminated and they depend entirely on the West. The West doesn’t care if their weapons deliveries violate laws, and have not yet realized they will never achieve their objectives when it comes to Russia. “They will have to understand that. I think they gradually will,” Putin said.

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.

AT WHAT POINT DOES THE ZELENSKY WAR BECOME A SADISTIC EXERCISE?
The Ukrainian president and his regime in Kiev cannot possibly win out against Russia.
The Ukrainian offensive that is being waged currently is seeing massive numbers of Ukrainians die and the weaponry from.
With no direct military forces from the USA, UK, the EU or from NATO Zelensky’s cause is lost.
So why doesn’t he bow to the inevitable?
Each day people are dying on both sides. Ukrainian and Russian mothers, fathers, wives, brothers, sisters and children are losing their loved ones. So why does Zelensky keep the whole tragedy going?
The Russians told him before this action took place that if he responded to their demands there need be no loss of life. Zelensky ignored this offer and so the campaign began. At each stage Russia has repeated the same offer in various theatres of war, again with it being ignored. The most recent offer was made just recently in respect of Mariupol where the most virulent strain of Ukrainian Nazi-legacy hold-outs continue to resist.
Zelensky appears unmoved. Why? Could it be there is still some last hope that perhaps a chemical weapons attack set up by his people or more likely by the out of control extremist legions of neo-Nazis might trigger the response from the USA, UK, EU and NATO that he craves and save the day for the Euromaidan project that infamously began in 2014?
Is this the tenuous, prayed for, hope that keeps him holding on?
Is there any reason to believe that the now promised depleted uranium shells or F16 fighters or any other tactic, such as a chemical weapons false flag or a dirty bomb, even one made to look convincingly like the Russians perpetrated it, would bring NATO boots onto Ukrainian ground, or a rain of missiles bringing Russian planes down, enforcing a no-fly zone? The consensus of opinion across every analysis I have seen is that this would mean the beginning of an ever-widening war between Russia and the West, the EU and NATO which could easily escalate to the use of battleground nuclear weapons being used and then on to an intercontinental ballistic nuclear conflagration.
So, even creating a mass chemical weapon attack with multiple casualties, women, children dying, others crying out for help… scenes of misery seen in the Syrian false flag event just as the Syrian army was conclusively winning against the West’s proxies there.
There would be uproar, that is clear. And Russia WOULD immediately be given the blame, no question. Terrible scenes would be shown and endlessly repeated on TV screens worldwide. It would all add to the ostracise Russia campaign underway with potentially many nations now hesitant to take part then doing so. But would it draw the West into what could potentially become an all out world war where nuclear weapons wiped out a good proportion of humanity if not it all?
The chances are both the West and Russia would draw back from such a scenario.
This war will most likely grind on and on with upwards of 500 Ukrainian troops dying each and every day. The western powers are apparently insisting on this or all aid to Ukraine will end. It is the cruellest form of blackmail imaginable.
So why does Zelensky draw the pain, suffering and death out day after day rather than submit to the inevitable result which was inevitable since this all began on February 24th? There is no good reason and there NEVER WAS a good reason.
Putin waited seven long years hoping the regime in Kiev would be as good as its word. It failed to move one step toward peace, instead massively favouring war. Ultimately Putin made his decision on a number of additional reasons apart from the one above. But once that decision was made Russia was going to carry the operation begun on the 24th to its ultimate conclusion. Zelensky must surely have know that this was the case. He cannot NOT have known. He MUST have known this.
This is where the man they say is a hero is certainly anything but. In fact he is responsible every day that passes for refusing the Russian demands that WILL be met sooner or later and in so doing perpetuates what has become a senseless, callous, sadistic and suicidal exercise brought on his own people.
