“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.

PROFESSOR JOHN J MEARSHEIMER: RUSSIA HAWKS AND CHINA HAWKS
Article published by Russia Today (RT) - 10th May 2023:
Globalist elites provoking bloody conflicts and coups – Putin.
The Russian leader has accused Western powers of trying to build a system of “robbery, violence and suppression”.
Western elites have forgotten the consequences of the Nazis’ “insane ambitions,” Russian President Vladimir Putin has said during his Victory Day Parade speech on Red Square in Moscow.
Russia believes that “any ideology of superiority is by its nature disgusting, criminal and deadly,” the president pointed out.
“The globalist elites keep insisting on their exceptionalism; they pit people against each other, split societies, provoke bloody conflicts and coups, sow hatred, Russophobia and aggressive nationalism, destroy traditional family values that make human a human,” Putin said.
According to the Russian leader, all this is being done by the US and allies in order to “further dictate their will, their rights and their rules” and implement what is basically “a system of robbery, violence and suppression” on the international stage.
“It seems that they have forgotten what the insane ambitions of the Nazis led to. They have forgotten who defeated this monstrous, total evil,” he stressed.
Referring to the conflict in Ukraine, Putin said that “a real war has been unleashed against out Motherland. But we resisted international terrorism. We’ll also defend the residents of Donbass and assure our security.”
The aim of the West is “to achieve the disintegration and destruction of our country, nullify the results of World War II, completely break down the system of global security and international law, and strangle any sovereign centres of development,” he insisted.
The US and its allies are to blame for the outbreak of the conflict in Ukraine, the head of state said.
“Overwhelming ambitions, arrogance and permissiveness inevitably lead to tragedies. This is the reason for the catastrophe that the Ukrainian people are now experiencing,” he pointed out.
The Ukrainians became “hostages” of the coup that took place in the country in 2014 and were turned into “a bargaining chip” by the West, which uses the country to implement its “cruel selfish plans.”

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.

THE SEE-SAW OF WORLD EVENTS IS BRINGING A NEW DAWN FOR ALL OF US
We are living through a time of momentous change.
The world as we have known it is transforming.
From now onward the east will rise and rise while the west continually falls.
What has led to this is a series of both enormous errors and egregious crimes by the collective west by which I mean the USA, UK and their allies/proxies and puppet nations.
The desire to obtain hegemonic global rule and oversight by those above have brought them to venture over the brink of disaster and we find them now plunging helpless into the abyss, their own self-created abyss.
The hubris of the USA has been a continual feature of its totally arrogant and misplaced pride as it has proceeded to bully all those who presented a challenge to its demanded authority. A mix of fantastical self-promoting mythologies that denied it genocidal and racist past in its formative years, its myriad abuses of power which have seen millions die agonising deaths, it’s creation of some of the most evil weapons humanity has ever seen and its overweening willingness to interfere, attack, invade, undermine, subvert and destroy others is rightfully bringing it at long last the pariah status it has long deserved.
Two powers are now rising fast as the USA and the noxious elites of its allies begin an unstoppable descent to ignominy and rejection. China and Russia together will now begin form the foundation of a world with an entirely different geopolitical underpinning in the wake of the fast descending collective west.
The spearpoint of the collective west (CW) now being totally blunted is NATO. Using this entity which had no place in the modern world at the end of the Cold War has proven the main instigator of the downfall now descending upon western elite manipulative control.
Russia called the collective bluff of the West via its intervention in Ukraine. Then, using the West’s sanctions against itself it is now exercising the economic muscle it has to deliver the fatal blow.
Nothing can stop the western world going into free fall as the effects of this new situation hit home one after another. Inflation will soar. Employment will fall. Trade will stagnate. Factories will close. Homes will grow cold as bank accounts are emptied and bankruptcies rise. Gross Domestic Products across the USA and Europe will plummet as a dark spiral of negativity grips the entire West.
Meanwhile both China and Russia will experience increasing economic success and their strength of influence will rise exponentially and unstoppably, first near at hand and in cooperation one with another but soon spreading out across Eurasia and later, naturally expanding into eastern Europe and beyond.
A new geopolitical paradigm will gradually assert itself, one where agreement trumps aggression, diplomacy trumps division, friends are created, not foes and a determined and constant goal of peace, not war imbues international relations with an overarching atmosphere of tolerance and respect for national sovereignty.
Gone will be the mentality of exceptionalism and superiority aggressively demonstrated by the USA and UK. Europe will be first to see and embrace the new reality and eschew the old. Progressively and due to their inescapable quarantining in the new circumstances and reality both the USA and UK will inevitably do so also.
These vicious two, the USA and UK will have been hung on their own petard as the saying goes. Their determination to maintain and enlarge their manipulative control of the world through threats, violence and subversion will be finally acknowledged to have totally collapsed and they too will come to terms with the new ethos of cooperation rather than casino capitalism confrontation.
Those idealists among us who have long hoped to see peace across our planet will now have their day. The hawks, warmongers and “defence” contractors of the various military industrial complexes will find themselves seeking alternative employment.
It will soon be time to feel the heavy weight of these many years of war stretching back centuries but experienced in their most deadly form only decades ago, lifted from every last one of us (except the Lords of War). We will experience a sense of almost universe well being that cannot quite be imagined in this present moment. It will be quite unique.
John Lennon would certainly have loved to be here as this new reality dawns.
‘WAR IS OVER. IF YOU WANT IT.’
And his question will be answered.
“What if they held a war and nobody came?”
I wish so much you could be here to see it. Along with Bill Hicks and George Carlin and all others who longed to see peace break out across our, till now, benighted planet. For it is now almost within grasp…
The efforts of the collective west in attempting to shore up their position through sabotage, terrorism, propaganda and regime change have only speeded the process of their ultimate undoing. A new, multipolar world is rising and every effort to stop the process will only ensure it arrives even sooner.
