Group of Ukrainian parasites ‘storm’ out during Fico’s speech when he asks if they’re so fond of the war why don’t they grab a machine gun and go to the front. The reaction reminds of a collective suicide cult, it’s so hive-minded and organized.

In that video everyone can see the penis piano player wearing a shirt with the trident on it. At 7 minutes 15 sec. Fucking nazi-banderist!
According to the video, nato officiers are trapped in the Krasnoarmeisk cauldron and every attempt to rescue them with elite troops failed, those troops undergoing heavy losses.

“The nations of the world need to wake up to the insanity of this possibility. Indian population growth is out of control, and at this point,”
India always has been 16 to 18 percent of world population and economically very rich all the way upto 1750 about 25 percent of world GDP . All was destroyed and looted by English parasites’ bas-ards.
It is English parasites’ who have spread everywhere through deceit, genocide and theivery in all places. In fact England has spread out to massive land mass of Australia, Canada, USA ,etc.if you count the average then it is unbelievably high real estate theft rest of world must take those lands from English pests .

English are neither Caucasian nor Aryan race .
BTW . English and Anglos are neither Aryan nor Caucasian by the definition of Caucasians by the German scientist who first coined the word “Caucasian race.”English are derived from a bog land of northern Holland where their trade was piracy.
Now R1a in y chromosome haplogroup is a marker of Steppe (Aryan heritage) ancestry.
Even the lowest caste of Indians have 20 percent of R1a1 when Scots have 7 percent and english have none. Bengali Brahmans have 72 % of Aryan gene R1a1 . Poles, Ukrainians and Russians have 45 percent while Indian brahmans have 73 percent. No Indian of even low caste has less than 40 percent of R1a1 .
Now R1a dna test means Aryan heritage.

“New Testament: Jesus takes up this commandment and expands its meaning. He explains that even anger and insulting others are sinful because they anticipate the act of killing. ”
I believe you are missing the point. Jesus is pointing out the discrepancy between our outward conduct and the cherishing of sin in our inner heart where no one can perceive our transgression. You didn’t kill anyone or commit adultery today? Good for you. Did you entertain hate or lustful thoughts? Then Jesus pronounces you guilty.
“18 But what comes out of the mouth proceeds from the heart, and this defiles a person. 19 For out of the heart come evil thoughts, murder, adultery, sexual immorality, theft, false witness, slander. 20 These are what defile a person. But to eat with unwashed hands does not defile anyone.” (Matthew 15:18-20)
If you think that not acting out the sin that you harbor in your heart makes you a good person then you are just another Religious Sham. That’s what Jesus was getting at.

Thanks for the link to that video-report by Borzzikman.
He’s right in highlighting the words of Armin Wagner.
And Armin Wagner is right when agreeing with me: the next target of the Russians are the Baltic micronations, and THAT will be the beginning of the end for NATO, as the Russian attack on the Baltics will create a deep division in NATO.
Not at 1st. At 1st all of NATO will respond as a chorus, same words and all that coordinated shit. But then the Russian kinetic war will demand reciprocal kinetics from NATO and then who is gonna risk their cities, soldiers and gear to defend absolutely worthless micronations on the far border of NATO? The USA? Portugal? Spain? Italy? Greece? Turkey? No way. Only the Germans, Finns, Swedes, Norwegians, and Danes will have to face Russia in the defense of Baltic micronations no one really gives a shit about.
This will happen at the turn of the next decade.
By the mid 30s, Russia will have a much more straight Western border, going from Kaliningrad to Transnistria.

Ukraine has launched a coordinated missile offensive against Russia’s power network, demolishing major thermal power plants. After months of drone warfare, Kyiv has escalated to precision missile strikes, a shift that has left entire cities without power, heat, or water, and exposed the fragility of Russia’s grid in a way drones never could.
The most significant hit came in Voronezh, where three missiles struck the city’s thermal power plant. Two missiles impacted the newly built boiler block, shredding steam generators and turbines connected to LM-6000 gas modules, and another missile pierced the roof of the turbine wall. Within minutes, power and heating dropped across several districts, leaving over a thousand industrial users, including the critical Voronezh chemical plant, offline. The plant’s new energy block, finished in 2019, had been among the most modern in Russia’s regional network. Its destruction signals that Ukraine can now disable newly built, high-efficiency targets previously considered too hardened for drones to damage effectively.
In Orel, the attack was equally devastating, and as residents reported no buzzing typical of drones, only deep, sustained explosions that lit up the skyline, it became clear that Ukrainians carried out the strike with cruise missiles. The Orel thermal power plant had already been damaged by drones earlier this month, but this time several sections were destroyed outright. Analysts say it powered roughly 40 percent of the region’s electricity and up to 65 percent of Orel’s central heating. The strike caused widespread outages and may have permanently disabled one of the plant’s turbine halls. Together, the two operations mark Ukraine’s first deliberate campaign using long-range precision missiles against Russia’s core energy system, a capability that had been withheld until now.
This shift marks a turning point, as missiles change both scale and tempo, and unlike drones, which rely on swarming and attrition, missiles can deliver concentrated kinetic power with pinpoint accuracy, overwhelming localized air defenses before they can adapt. They also travel faster and hit harder, often detonating with enough force to destroy reinforced infrastructure that drones can only set on fire. While drones have proven cost-effective, missiles offer immediacy, as one strike can erase an entire generating unit rather than disable a single transformer. In this sense, Ukraine’s use of missiles signals confidence in its ability to sustain a higher-intensity strategic campaign, one that directly undermines Russia’s war economy by freezing its energy backbone.

Yes, before God and the law, all who believe are equal.
The problem with the Protestant Church in Germany is that it also uses tax money from non-believers.
Yet giving is supposedly better than taking.
A true Christian is defenceless. He should love his enemies, give instead of take, and turn the other cheek when the authorities have had enough of one.

No Bingo here.
There is no way this war is over in 2025.
Look at the rate of advance – there is ZERO chance Russia will occupy Slavyansk or Kramatorsk this year.
There is simply no one in Europe for Russia to sign a serious peace agreement with either.
Not any European Leader with any ability to sign such an agreement until at least mid-2027 when France gets a new President.
President Micron is incapable of ending the Ukraine War – and so it will continue – for at least another 18 months.
I surmise there is no possible end to this conflict until at least Summer 2027.
You are far too naive and optimistic on that front Bingo.

UN’s Antonio Guterres is crying loud about Russian strikes on Ukrainian infrastructure. Meaning these strikes must be very painful, ruining a lot of Nato plans which involved utilizing it.

Correct, I also don’t think the Russians will still be in either Pokrovsk or Mirnograd by the end of the year:the operations to conquer these two cities are proving extremely costlyfor them in terms of manpower and equipment, without them having yet managed to gain control of either area, while NATO/UKR continues to resist and carry out external incursions. Furthermore, the impact of the strategic campaign against Russian infrastructure cannot be be ignored; after refining and extracting hydrocarbons, they have now moved on to direct attacks on power and heating plants.
Consider that NATO uses cruise missiles with warheads weighing in the ton range, so one hit is enough to completely destroy the target.
In contrast, the Russians use drones with light explosive charges, which are fixable in a short time.

That’s funny, considering Russia already controls 99% of Pokrovsk. There might be a few basement dwellers left behind somewhere with no impact on anything.
In Myrnograd they completely own the initiative, can bomb and starve everyone hiding in the citadel or high rise buildings to submission at their leisure.
While doing this they keep expanding NW/WNW of Pokrovsk along the rail track, disrupting AFU from forming another defensive line, or alternatively, forcing the next line to be formed much further back compared to without advancing.
AFU offensive north of Pokrovsk is stalled.
Kiev, nearly 2 weeks after a major strike is still dark. Ukraine is isolated into bunch of electricity ‘islands’ with no inter-connections. Few light weight V1 pin prick attacks on Russian targets won’t change that. Strategic victory is 95% Russia and 5% Nato/Ukraine, in terms of destruction of manpower and military industrial potential.
Posted by: unimperator | Nov 15 2025 12:43 utc | 224
The number of attacks on Russian infrastructure, carried out yesterday and last night,implies a high level of coordination and careful planning. In recent days,we have seen a curious activity of light Ukrainian drones almost everywhere, almost all of them shot down. Now it seems clear that their aim was to saturate and exhaust Russian anti-aircraft defenses, which have proven powerless to stop the vastmajority of heavy Ukrainian/NATO missiles. Russia’s lack of AWACS certainly plays a role in this: the few they had were destroyed over Crimea in 2023-2024, or on the ground in theattack on strategic aviation. This indicates that there is a well thought plan behind it,which is being carried out with precision.

Multiple hypersonic missiles and over a hundred suicide drones attacked targets in Ukraine over the night of November 14 and 15.
In a statement, the Ukrainian Air Force said that three Kinzhal air-launched hypersonic ballistic missiles and 135 suicide drones, mostly from the Geran-type, were launched from Russia. As usual, the air force claimed that most of the projectiles were intercepted by air defenses or jammed by electronic warfare means. However, impacts were reported in at least 13 locations.
Blasts were heard in the regions of Dnipropetrovsk, Kherson, Donetsk, Kharkiv, as well as Sumy, as in the capital, Kiev, itself.
Ukrainian media reports from earlier on November 14, also reported the launch of a Zircon hypersonic cruise missile from a ground-based system at a target in Sumy.
The Russian Ministry of Defense said in a briefing on November 15 that missile, drone and artillery strikes hit “a military airfield, an energy facility that maintains the Ukrainian defense industry, a workshop for the production of uncrewed surface vehicles, assembly and storage areas of long-range unmanned aerial vehicles, communication facilities of the Ukrainian Main Directorate of Intelligence, temporary deployment areas of Ukrainian armed formations and foreign mercenaries in 152 areas” over the past 24 hours.
Also overnight, Ukraine carried out another attack on Russian territories, launching at least 63 drones, according to the Russian MoD.
In a statement, the ministry said that 25 drones were intercepted over the region of Ryazan, 17 over the region of Rostov, eight over the region of Tambov, and five over the region of Voronezh. Two drones were also shot down over each of the regions of Belgorod, Saratov, and Lipetsk. Three more drones were intercepted over the regions of Tula, Samara and the Republic of Tatarstan.
No casualties or damage were reported by Russian media as a result of the Ukrainian drone attack, which was apparently a complete failure.
In recent months, the Russian military began to carry out group strikes against Ukraine more frequently. These strikes also became more effective.
The rate of Ukrainian attacks also increased in the last few months. However, they are in fact becoming less and less effective than before.

❗️Results of Russia’s massive combined weapons strike against Ukraine | 13.11.2025 | 1/2 💥
On the 13th and 14th of November, the Russian military launched another large air attack targeting infrastructure utilized by the Zelensky regime.
➡️ According to Ukraine’s own defense ministry, “fall of shot down (fragments)” accounted for damage “at 44 locations.” Unfortunately when projectiles are unsafely shot down, fragments can damage residential areas, which is never Russia’s intention.➡️ MP Oleksandr Fediyenko made a Telegram post about Patriot interceptors randomly falling. Perhaps this is another reason why damage is reported in residential areas.➡️ In Kiev, power facilities TPP-4, TPP-5, and TPP-6 were targeted by drones and missiles, leading to power fluctuations and emergency shutdowns in the capital.➡️ The Bilotserkivska TPP and nearby repair shops/factories were heavily damaged by the strikes.➡️ Also in Bila Tservka, the Rotok electrical substation was likely destroyed.

Traffic on the Trans-Siberian Railway near Khabarovsk (Siberia) has been allegedly blocked since Thursdayfollowing a mysterious explosion that destroyed a stretch of track in a remote area. This not only isolates many areas of eastern Russia, but also slows the supply of dual-use equipment from China and weapons and ammunition from North Korea. Given the remote area where the incident occurred, a direct attack by NATO/UKR is unlikely;it is more likely the work of Western or Ukrainian intelligence services, or of local dissidents/independence activists, possibly also equipped by the West. In any case, this represents a further leap in the strategic campaign against Russianinfrastructure, which until now has been limited to attacks west of the Urals.

A great find. Ritter’s been on a slow burn since WMD times. Nor so slow always. I watched him being patted on the head by Biden and being told WMD was above his pay grade. That was a man finding his Semper Fi universe collapsing around his ears. He’s been searching for it ever since. Perhaps the journey Colonel Lang was making at that time too.
But if one takes account of the fact that that’s where Ritter’s coming from his account of what he’s finding in Russia is valuable. I believe it fits with what I, as an outsider with none of Ritter’s expertise, thought I saw in Putin’s style of leadership.
Putin is not a solo dictator wielding unchallengeable power. He is not a Blair with his “sofa cabinet” and decisions taken from the sofa without much reference to Parliament. Nor a Bush 45 or a Biden, working from within a small group of zealot advisors and other sources of advice excluded. Nor indeed a “Hey folks! What the hell. Let’s give bombing Serbia a whirl!” Clinton. That’s not how the Russian system works. Putin is the head of a collegiate system, taking care to consult the Security Council regularly and just about everyone else he can manage to talk to.
So on an issue like this, the use of military force against another country with all the fateful consequences that were to follow, we’re not looking at just an arbitrary or wilful decision made by one man or by a small group, though most in the West picture it like that. We are looking at Russia itself deciding and Putin, that meticulously cautious statesman, making sure that what he says and does is in tune with the greater part of the country, from the top of the power structure right through to the family in the backwater village a thousand miles away.
It’s bound to be an idealised picture. Bound to be a lot squalid in the background because politics everywhere always has its squalid side. But in times of national emergency the squalid drops away, if you’re lucky, and the issues clarify. Looks like for many in Russia the issues have clarified and Ritter, the intemperate and disillusioned idealist always on the search, is finding in Russia what he has been unable to find in the West.
……………………………………………..
Some contrast with the truly squalid side of things we’re seeing in England. Chatham House rebranding neo-Nazi thugs. Starmer hugging Zelensky, of all people. Not a lot of room for idealism in Westminster at present. Or even common sense.

Imagine my surprise. Russia is quietly mobilizing reservists. Not to fight on the front but to train as air defense crews to protect Russia’s under protected critical infrastructure.
I took a lot of flak for daring to say drones would not only change the SMO,they would change war forever. The Modern War Doctrine will focus mainly on drones.

Sorry to correct you, Sean, but NATO is no longer using lightweight drones; they’ve now switched to using Flamingo/Neptun,
which have one-ton warheads, they are ‘regular’ cruise missiles. You’re right, though, that Russian anti-aircraft defense, once touted as the best in the world, is proving to be a bit of a sieve.
And I don’t think mobilizing reservists will do any good.
What will they give them to shoot down the cruise missiles? Some nice double-barreled rifles?

I think that EU is going to escalate soon and escalate hard. Recently they exported some long range missiles to Ukraine and Russian refineries are slowly being destroyed.

In Ukraine, due to a power outage, meat will rise in price: experts told what prices will be
In Ukraine, the use of backup power sources not only significantly increases the cost of production. We are also talking about increasing the risk of loss of poultry due to possible failures in their work
This is reported by UNIAN, reports RegioNews .
This was explained by the Executive Director of the Association “Union of Poultry Breeders of Ukraine” Sergey Karpenko. According to him, the capacity for raising and keeping poultry is still more or less provided with alternative food sources, but the production of mixed feed for birds is not yet fully adapted to functioning during a power outage.
“The powerful equipment of feed mills requires a certain voltage to start up and operate, to ensure all the associated processes of making feed according to rations, which diesel generators are simply not able to provide. The inability to produce mixed feed threatens the imminent loss of poultry stock, ” the expert says.
Sergey Karpenko also added that poultry producers are now adjusting their plans for keeping livestock down. this will lead to a reduction in production volumes, and, accordingly, it will affect prices. Note that the cost of poultry can grow by 15-20%.%
“A permanent power outage is becoming a threat not only to the production of products, but also in general to the continued existence of the poultry industry and the food security of the state,” the expert says.
Recall that according to statistics, as of August 2025 , prices in Ukraine increased by 13.2%. At the same time, last month the annual inflation rate was 14.1%.

Well now, here’s a thing; I would have thought that the Western MSM would be giving massive coverage to these undoubted Ukrainian successes, celebrating them with not too carefully stifled glee.
Yet there’s not a peep on the BBC News website, nothing on Sky News either. Perhaps BBC Verify have actually lived up to their name for once, and verified that nothing of what you report actually happened.
After all, their accuracy is under increased scrutiny at the moment, for reasons…
What say you?

We talk about end of WW1, we talk about end of Korean war. We all know there are not signed “peace” agreements that end wars.but it seems you are same as so many politicians in the way you think.
Ears end when one side overwhelms the other. I have seen Russian forces grow stronger and stronger on the battlefield which is eastern Ukraine. And now I see the Ukraine army, once the biggest with the best equipment in Europe, overwhelmed time and time again. The surrenders and the desertions increase. Their ammunition less and less, and their trained manpower less and less. The army is not being fed and has low morale.
No electricity in Ukraine means no locomotive to bring to the front what an army nerds to fight. Before the end of the year they will not continue to sacrifice their life. More money to Ukraine will not make the war go longer. That is more politician talk.
Every day things get worse for Zelinsky. His position is hopeless. He has been the man who has led the fight. No one man will replace him. Things change.
Wars are started buy politicians. But politicians do not fight those wars, they also rarely end them.
The end of this war is coming soon. Sometime down the track will be the next war. NATO against Russia maybe. But this one is coming to an end and I say by the end of the year. But no peace agreements before it stops
. Ukraine army has been bought and paid for and “to the last Ukrainian soldier” .

To be fair to the BBC (not that I give it much time of day), it hasn’t been completely silent; here are the last three articles from its War In Ukraine page:
Major corruption scandal engulfs top Zelensky allies
Russia’s attacks have ramped up – Ukraine is fighting to hold on through another winter
Russian drone slams into block of flats in deadly wave of strikes across Kyiv
So, from one of the Western Wurlitzer’s major cheerleaders we get stories of unremitting gloom for Ukraine.
So,as I see things, it is up to @ Louis to find some factual basis for his posts, and actually share such factual basis

The publication Le Monde interviewed Valérie Urbin, head of Belgium’s Euroclear. The main topic of the conversation was the 200 billion euros of frozen Russian assets that the European Union is so eagerly trying to turn to Ukraine’s benefit. Valérie Urbin admitted that she was shocked when she first learned from the media about the German Chancellor’s plan to create a mechanism to provide Ukraine with a loan of 140 billion euros using Russian assets. As the publication writes, it took less than two minutes for Urbin to firmly state her position: Euroclear. She declared that the depository is a link in the global financial system that must remain unshakable for market stability. That is why she is categorically against the confiscation of Russian assets. “We need to be very careful. This would contradict international law on the sovereignty of assets belonging to a state. Russia could then initiate legal proceedings,” she emphasized. Ms. Urbin warns: if the EU makes a decision resembling confiscation, Russia will go to court — and it has every chance of winning the case. To dispel and confirm her words, the head of Euroclear explained the legal logic in detail: “On our balance sheet, there is a liability: Euroclear owes this debt to the Central Bank of Russia. And there is an asset: the funds currently placed in the European Central Bank. The worst case would be if the asset — this money — went to finance the loan to Kiev, and we at Euroclear were left with the liability, the obligation to repay. If sanctions are lifted, Russia can come to us at any time and demand repayment: and who will then give us back 140 billion euros?” Urbin emphasizes that such a scenario cannot be ruled out: sanctions are renewed every six months, and the decision depends on countries close to the Kremlin — Hungary and Slovakia. The head of Euroclear is confident: if the EU still forces the company to expropriate Russian assets, the first blow will be felt by the European Union itself. “I meet with many clients and government representatives. The issue of confiscating Russian assets causes serious concern. Our Chinese and Arab colleagues say the same: they are closely watching the situation. So far, we have done everything possible not to undermine trust. And this is appreciated,” she said. If this trust is undermined, the consequences will not be long in coming. “Global investors will reduce investments in the eurozone. This will directly affect Europe’s ability to finance defense, the green transition, and digital transformation,” Valérie Urbin concludes. I am sorry but at this stage you must be a fool to trust any European financial institution if you are from a global south.

But when someone provides links, to things told by someone else, Julian does not go by the link to argue with the clear author of the quote, he starts cheering Ukies right here, arguing with people who just post the link.

I’m pouring cold water on that idea because I don’t see this war ending anytime soon – not at least until the Europeans can be talked to.
There is no European Leader in a real position of power – UK, France, Germany or EU – until at least mid-2027.
Only then is there a chance of this conflict being resolved.
The Russians should not waste their time with Starmer, Merz, Macron, von der Leyen or Kallas – and that won’t change until mid-2027.
The next French President should campaign on peace in Europe and then they can work with Putin & Trump and make it happen.
There is no prospect of that happening in 2025 or 2026.
I’m very comfortable with that prediction.
I’m also sure the Russians can achieve their objectives in the next 18 months – why waste time on useless talks before then?

Tbh the Russians probably understand there is no negotiated peace.
The brain dead zombie Eurotards will just go on autopilot stripping money from their social budgets and drip feeding it in the Nato PURL program to buy weapons from American companies.
This will not enough by far, core of AFU is already weak and collapsed, excluding few ‘elite’ azov and GUR units who are also used to plug in gaps in Pokrovsk. Zaporozhye direction (Gulyapole, Stepnogorsk, Novopavlovka etc.) are defended by ‘territorial defense’ who are kidnapped people from the street. That is why they are just getting steamrolled. We know for a fact American MIC is throttling with lack of Chinese rare metals and components for their smart weapons like guided missiles or artillery shells or other systems.
So Europeans drip feeding weapons isn’t really an issue. All copium is put on ‘long range strikes on refineries’ because there really is nothing else left to do.
The cold fact is with European insistence to continue war without them being able to provide coherent amount of weapons, artillery, SAM, tanks, AFVs etc. (actually, non at all at this point), casualty rate for AFU goes up and they get steamrolled everywhere there is open ground and Europe will lose more and more leverage, in any eventual negotiation.

And I repeat that you pick some funny places and some smelly reasons to pour your cold water.
The really crazy stuff passes by you easily, you are even eager to push some weird theories yourself, like, for example that any European leader might have any objectness to be any party to the conflict settlement.
Yet some small stuff like guessing the actual timeline of the end to the thing that has already been resolved makes you indignantly righteous.
