The illicit war and our ‘president’ pouring tax payer money into that lost cause known as “Ukraine” is of interest.

But you people breathlessly repeat propaganda 24/7 and cheer for the pointless loss of life and the involvement of the US in what can become a nuclear war, if you cheer leaders get your way. NATO aspires to become the New World Order of the CHristian bible - a one-world dictatorship, and they need regime change in Russia in order to control that country.

AMerican Patriots want to stop sending our money to NATO cronies, Zelensky and his cronies - the Ukrainian people get nothing and the oligarchs, puppets, Biden regime get the money.

Post after post of a ‘Ukrainian pilot’ parroting everything the Ukrainian Neo Nazi military wants us to believe about this farce - WHY would anyone think war mongering and support for Joe Biden would be of interest to conservatives?

Ukrainian servicemen go on night patrol around the city of Bakhmut with shelling audible in background and plumes of smoke rising in the residential area.

Servicemen said shelling was especially heavy at night and in the past week.

“Last week – I am telling you – they use everything from mortars to S300 missiles,” serviceman who gave his nom-de-guerre as ‘Marine’ said.

Fighting has raged in and around Bakhmut in Donetsk region for months, with Ukrainian forces holding out despite regular claims by Russia to have taken the city.

I watched the pro-Uke battle map. There was no way two weeks ago they were at 90%. I don’t know who was claiming that, but they were incorrect. Today, yes, they are at 90%.

Only 10% to go and Bakhmut will be completely in the hands of the Ruskies.

Not sure what the Ukes will do once Bakhmut has fallen. Maybe they’ll rally around Avdiivka which is also surrounded by the Ruskies.

The G7 countries are discussing the possibility of expanding the sanctions regime against Russia, including a ban on almost all exports to Moscow.

Source: Kyodo

The decision may be made during the G7 summit to be held in May in Hiroshima, western Japan.

Quote: “The G-7 countries have already stopped exporting a wide range of items to Russia, including products that can be used for military purposes and luxury goods. But the latest plan could expand the trade embargo to used cars, tyres, cosmetic items and clothing, the source said.”

Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida has invited President Volodymyr Zelenskyy to join the meeting online. The summit takes place on May 19-21 and will be attended by the leaders of the United Kingdom, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, the United States, and the European Union.

Background:

The G7 countries are likely to impose new sanctions on large one-carat diamonds from the Russian diamond mining company Alrosa, which accounts for about a third of the world’s rough diamond supply.

Saturday, 22 April 2023, 08:57
https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/04/22/7398973/

Ivan Fedorov, Mayor of Melitopol, reported an explosion in the Russian-occupied city on the morning of Saturday, 22 April.

Source: Fedorov on Telegram

Quote: “Morning cotton in temporarily occupied Melitopol. [Russian propaganda, initially refusing to use the word ‘vzryv’ (explosion), used ‘khlopok’ (a bang) instead. However, ‘khlopok’ also means ‘cotton’, and this has since become a meme – ed.]

Residents have reported a dull, single explosion heard in the city’s northern parts.”

Details: The mayor’s office stated that “the occupiers started to fuss”, sending police, fire and ambulances towards the Novyi Melitopol area [a historic district in the eastern part of Melitopol – ed.].

https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/04/22/7398994/

Another explosive device found in Belgorod, Russia, thousands of people evacuated from their homes

An “explosive device” has been found near the site of a bomb explosion from a Russian plane in Belgorod, Russia, and 17 apartment buildings are being evacuated, as Vyacheslav Gladkov, the governor of Belgorod Oblast, has said.

Source: Gladkov on Telegram: https://t.me/novaya_europe/15968

Quote from Gladkov: “Bomb disposal experts have found an explosive device. Explosive ordnance engineers from the Russian Defence Ministry decided to defuse it at the training ground.

Operational staff evacuated 17 apartment buildings within a radius of 200 metres.

Preliminary reports indicate that this amounts to more than 3,000 people. Anyone who needs temporary accommodation assistance will be provided with it.”

Details: It is reported that people will be taken to places with water and food. Ninety vehicles were allocated for this purpose.

Background:

-An explosion occurred in the Russian city of Belgorod on the evening of 20 April, causing a 20-metre-wide crater on one of the city’s streets.

-The explosion damaged four apartments and several cars, injuring two people.

-The Russian Defence Ministry stated that the cause of the explosion in the Russian city of Belgorod was the fall of a piece of aircraft munitions during the flight of a Su-34 fighter-bomber belonging to the Russian Air Forces.

-Oleksii Danilov, the Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine, stated that a powerful explosion in Belgorod was a provocation by the Russians aimed at escalating the situation.

Regardless of that, the Ruskies do now have 90% of Bakhmut. Once the mud dries out the Russians will do their spring offensive and we’ll see what happens.

At some point I’m pretty sure the US and NATO will get directly involved in this fight. After that it should degrade quickly to nukes.

Smaller operations can happen prior to the main attack to test the Russian defenses and responses.

Staging areas are required for large scale operations and successfully concealing such areas when the ground is soggy will be an historic feat.

“”At some point I’m pretty sure the US and NATO will get directly involved in this fight. After that it should degrade quickly to nukes.””

If you believe that then you must be doing some extraordinary preparations for a nuclear war, devoting your wealth and time to the inevitable that you believe is coming, presumably within the next few months or year, 2023, or early 2024?
