*** RUSSIA LANDS YET ANOTHER CRUSHING BLOW ON KIEV REGIME ***
“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.

Ukraine a ‘corrupt shithole’ – ex-Boris Johnson adviser.
Backing Kiev pushed Russia and China into an alliance, Dominic Cummings has said.
The UK and its allies got tricked into backing a “corrupt mafia state” in Ukraine and getting into a war of attrition against a Moscow-Beijing partnership, Dominic Cummings has said in an interview.
The longtime Tory political strategist led the Vote Leave campaign for Brexit and was one of the key aides to then-PM Boris Johnson until resigning in November 2020.
“We should have never got into the whole stupid situation,” Cummings told the outlet I News in an interview published on Wednesday, commenting on London’s full-throated support for Kiev. He also described Ukraine as a “corrupt shithole that doesn’t matter at all.”
“This is not a replay of 1940 with the Potemkin [Ukrainian President Vladimir] Zelensky as the Churchillian underdog,” he added. “This whole Ukrainian corrupt mafia state has basically conned us all and we’re all going to get fucked as a consequence.”
Western sanctions have been “more of a disaster” for the EU than for Russia, driving up the cost of living while pushing Moscow and Beijing closer together, according to Cummings. All the West managed to do is get into a war of attrition with Russia, “who we pushed into an alliance with the world’s biggest manufacturing power.”

Cummings also addressed the argument that Russian President Vladimir Putin needed to be “taught a lesson” about invading neighbors.
“The lesson we’ve taught Putin is that we’re a bunch of total fucking jokers,” he said. “I mean, Putin already knew that before the war. But this has emphasized it and broadcast it to the entire world, what a bunch of clowns we are,” he added.
Between the sanctions regime and the US trying to seize frozen Russian assets, the West is encouraging the emergence of alternative global financial systems, he explained.
That’s not teaching Putin any lesson, only that we’re idiots.
Cummings slammed Johnson – with whom he is no longer on speaking terms – for using the Ukraine conflict for “acting out his Churchillian fantasies,” as well as the Parliament, which “swallowed all of his total bullshit on Ukraine and actually took it seriously.”
Johnson was the key figure in getting Kiev to reject a peace deal with Russia in April 2022, according to the top Ukrainian negotiator, as well as Ukrainian media.
The former PM denied his role in scuttling the talks, calling the account “total nonsense and Russian propaganda.” However, he confirmed that he told Zelensky the UK would back him “a thousand percent” and that any deal with Moscow would be bad.

Ukrainian forces are actively using weapons supplied by Britain to carry out terrorist attacks against Russian regions, Foreign Ministry official Sergey Belyaev has said.
London remains one of the largest donors of weaponry to Kiev, providing £7.1 billion ($8.9 billion) in assistance since the start of the Russia-Ukraine conflict in February 2022, Belyaev, who heads the Russian Foreign Ministry’s Second European Department, said in an interview with TASS news agency, published on Saturday.
"UK-supplied weapons are being actively used by the Ukrainian military in terrorist attacks on civilian infrastructure and the civilian population of Donbass, as well as other Russian regions,” he stated.
According to the diplomat, last month’s announcement by British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak of a £500 million ($617 million) military aid package for Ukraine was an attempt by Britain to gain a more prominent role in NATO and among European countries.
"The British acted in a similar manner when they began deliveries of Storm Shadow cruise missiles and Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine,” becoming one of the first countries to provide Kiev with such types of hardware, he explained.

Belyaev noted that Russian diplomats have repeatedly warned their British counterparts that support for Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky’s government is “harmful” and “leads to further escalation and casualties among the civilian population.”
“London’s abandonment of its confrontational course,” including sanctions, “is a necessary condition for the restoration of bilateral political, trade and economic ties” with Moscow, he said.
The strained relationship between Russia and Britain deteriorated further last week after Foreign Secretary David Cameron said Ukraine has the “right” to use UK-provided weaponry to strike targets deep inside Russia, if it decides to do so.
The Russian Foreign Ministry summoned British Ambassador in Moscow Nigel Casey following Cameron’s remarks. “Casey was warned that the response to Ukrainian strikes using British weapons on Russian territory could be any British military facilities and equipment on the territory of Ukraine and beyond,” the ministry said in a statement following the meeting.

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.

EGREGIOUS BLUNDERS BY THE WEST HAVE BROUGHT ABOUT UKRAINE’S DESTRUCTION AS A VIABLE STATE
Though western politicians and media have long sought to present a positive spin on events in Ukraine they are now confronted with an unavoidable reality. The Kiev regime they sponsored has lost and lost big.
As Russia mounts a second front in the Kharkov region and potentially a third in the Sumy region we can see the end game unfolding for the Ukraine Project of the western powers.
A concatenation of errors arguably beginning in 2008 where George W. Bush forced through a statement against the objection of several important powers that Ukraine would join NATO at some future date. As the present head of the CIA, William Burns said at the time in a memo, this was the reddest of red lines for Russia.
Since 2008 the list of egregious errors by the successive leaders of the West has grown ever longer. Pushing NATO towards Russia’s borders through ever more ex-Warsaw Pact nations joining after a verbal agreement with Gorbachev that this would not happen was overwhelmingly provocative. What was the Russian leadership to think that this organisation created as the West’s primary weapon against the Soviet Union aimed to squat on the Russian border with Ukraine?
From 2008 to the present day NATO heads have made no serious case for being a merely defensive organisation. The people of Serbia and libya can vouch for the fact that NATO is quite obviously an extremely deadly offensive organisation. Why would Russia tolerate such a presence on its borders? Would the USA, UK or European nations tolerate the equivalent Russian military assets on their borders?
Russian offers to the West that security guarantees based on diplomacy resolve all outstanding problematic areas between them fell on deaf ears. Russia attending the Minsk Accord discussions for the best part of a decade to find a peaceful, diplomatic path was treated in bad faith by the western powers. They were never committed to finding that path but instead concentrated their efforts in building Ukraine’s military power to NATO standards. Russia offered to discuss the building of a new security architecture for Europe guaranteeing the continued sovereignty of all borders was rejected.
In Turkey early in 2022 an agreement that would see Ukraine remain a neutral nation outside of NATO was all but worked out when the western powers intervened and ensured that the military conflict between Russia and the Ukrainian regime would continue. Since this agreement almost within reach in Istanbul the West has escalated time and time again, constantly pushing Russia to respond. Since Istanbul half a million Ukrainians have died or suffered terrible injuries. Meanwhile, Russia’s escalatory dominance has only increased. At least one thousand volunteers join the Russian army each day. The Russian military industrial complex has been expanded, made more efficient and developed where new weapons are brought on stream across the Ukrainian battleground.
Despite all independent expert opinion stating that there was no path to victory for Ukraine and that Russia’s resources were overwhelmingly superior the western leadership has continued blindly to double down. Everything the West could do wrong it has. Now we arrive at the final outcome in Ukraine that was in fact predictable from the day western sanctions failed to bring the Russian economy down. Doubling down hoping for a miracle is all the West has had since that time, depending on sending money and weaponry hoping that the Russian need for security could be weakened. There was NEVER any possibility that the existential threat Russia had identified against it would allow its leadership to ignore that threat. To believe so is arguably the most grievous error made by the West over this entire debacle fomented at each stage by its leaders.
Russia is winning hands down and will ultimately be totally victorious. The security of the Russian people depends upon it. No amount of resistance by the West was ever going to change this outcome. All that its errors have done is to massively increase the number of deaths and injuries that occur before this always inevitable result. In the next few weeks and months the entire world will see the extent to which those errors bring total humiliation to those who so blindly, ignorantly and recklessly committed them.
And Ukraine will lie totally destroyed as a viable nation due to their mindless idiocy.
