--- "Domains By Proxy is an Internet company started by the founder of GoDaddy, Bob Parsons, which offers domain privacy services through partner domain registrars such as GoDaddy and Wild West Domains."

Of course, this is correct. The point in identifying such is to show that, by citing YouTube as by whois data as by the registrars and privacy services, to show that these enterprises are quite distinctly resident in the United States.

Lots of other non-US domain registrars, as privacy companies, as nameservers pointing to non-US hosts are seen throughout the world.

The "cottage industry" as seen in some of these threads is often distinctly located in the United States.

"I turn the other cheeks and some just like to verbally slap it. oh well :)"

Stop playing the "victim." You're anything but. You constantly lie, misappropriate opponents' comments, slander people,falsely accuse them of being Russian propagandists and, sometimes twice per day, post enormous slabs of fantastical, pro-Youke propaganda here. You get the treatment and criticisms you deserve. Ugh.

ARTICLE - Romania

Romania is in favor of opening negotiations on EU membership with Ukraine: Olha Stefanishyna in Bucharest
Service of the Deputy Prime Minister of Ukraine
09 December 2023 11:07

On 8 December, during a working visit to Bucharest, Romania, Deputy Prime Minister for European and Euro-Atlantic Integration Olha Stefanishyna met with Romanian Foreign Minister Luminița Odobescu. The consultations were followed by a joint press conference.

The participants of the meeting discussed the opening of EU accession negotiations with Ukraine and Moldova at the next meeting of the European Council, given the undeniable result of the reform efforts of both countries.

Deputy Prime Minister Olha Stefanishyna informed her colleague that on the same day, the Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine had considered and adopted three draft laws identified by the European Commission as necessary additional steps, including amendments to certain laws of Ukraine to take into account the expert opinion of the Council of Europe and its bodies on the rights of national minorities (communities) in certain areas.

“We have maximum cohesion and are rapidly introducing the necessary reforms in matters related to Ukraine’s membership in the EU. Thus, after the publication of the European Commission’s report, we immediately developed all the necessary decisions. The adopted amendments to sectoral legislation on the protection of the rights of persons belonging to national minorities are the result of a broad inclusive dialogue and are in line with international standards. In this way, we provide the necessary legal certainty and guarantee the practical implementation of the rights enshrined in the framework legislation,” the Deputy Prime Minister stressed.

She noted that the provisions of the draft law take into account the opinion of representatives of various national communities in Ukraine and the adapted experience and practice of other European countries, primarily Romania and Hungary.

The Romanian Minister praised Ukraine’s reform efforts, particularly in the fight against corruption and the establishment of the rule of law during a full-scale war. She welcomed the adoption of legislative changes to protect the rights of national minorities and noted that “the adopted law is a positive step forward”. Luminița Odobescu stressed that Romania would remain a constructive partner of Ukraine in this regard.

The participants of the meeting discussed in detail the agenda of the meeting of the leaders of the 27 EU member states next week. Luminița Odobescu reiterated Romania’s full support for the opening of EU accession negotiations with Ukraine and the Republic of Moldova. During the joint press conference, the Minister stressed that Romania would continue to make efforts to reach a decision at the European Council on 14-15 December.

“European integration is a driver of profound transformations in Ukraine. We are fighting for our survival, repelling russia’s full-scale aggression, but at the same time, we are developing and stepping up our efforts to join the EU. We have a clear understanding with our partners in Bucharest that the European Council meeting should result in decisive steps for real enlargement and the future of Europe. And Ukraine’s movement towards EU membership is an integral part of this,” Olha Stefanishyna said.

The Romanian foreign minister expressed her consistent support for Ukraine both at the bilateral level and in its accession to the EU. The two sides agreed to work together to strengthen bilateral relations to a strategic level.

An additional observation ---

Another of this thread's citations for "war reporting" is Kanal13, as above.

Kanal's various information, including their own statements, shows that as a company they are in Baku, Azerbaijan. Non US domain registrar and no US-based privacy service.

The channel "Kanal13" is monetized!
Since Nov 6, 2012, the channel has generated 2,020,765,228 views. Assuming all views were monetized from day 1* with an average RPM of $3.00, this channel has generated $6,062,295.68 over 3915 days. That's an average of $565,194.87 per year.

RE: So she DOES live in Ukraine? I’m confused. She says she’s American. She says she’s Ukrainian.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I may be able to help clarify the point of your confusion.

The entire comment at Reply #5 is taken as a direct quote from the YouTube page of “Reporting from Ukraine” — including the quote below (to see it, click on “...more” in the video description which will reveal the whole transcript of the video).

>>”I am Ukrainian. My country has been invaded by Russia. In this video I will tell you what happened on the six-hundred-fifty-fourth day of the war.

>>Day 654: Dec 09

>>Today, there are a lot of new developments in the Avdiivka direction.”

The great Matt Taibbi:

Lying Was the Only Plan Biden, U.S. Ever Had in Ukraine

After nearly two years of pretending "victory" was coming, the president and a senior advisor finally admit the reality of Ukraine's dilemma. On the hawks who cried wolf.
A series of remarkable events with enormous consequences for Ukraine tumbled in rapid succession this week, lifting the veil on years of untrammeled and proud — yet ultimately purposeless and sociopathic — lying by the Biden administration and the Pentagon about the war there.

First, ahead of a crucial vote on military aid to both Ukraine and Israel Wednesday, Joe Biden went on TV to denounce Republicans for threatening to halt the $110 billion national security package. GOP leaders had told the White House they wouldn’t support the bill without border-sealing assurances of the type they knew Democrats wouldn’t accept, so Biden was cornered and clearly pissed. Eyes snapped wide open as the (surely fantastic) drugs aides must pu2mp in by the gallon before public appearances kicked in, Biden went off:

“Republicans think they can get everything they want without any bipartisan compromise,” he snapped. “And now they’re willing to literally kneecap Ukraine on the battlefield and damage our national security in the process.”

He added futher apocalyptic comment:

If Putin takes Ukraine, he won’t stop there… If Putin attacks a NATO ally… Then we’ll have something that we don’t seek and that we don’t have today. American troops fighting Russian troops… Extreme Republicans are playing chicken with our national security, holding Ukraine’s funding hostage to their extreme partisan border policies…

Some fascinating points here. If lying was the only tactic that the Biden administration had in regards to Ukraine then you, Reverend Mother, are tightly aligned with the technique of the Biden administration. Certainly no one on Free Republic has engaged in a long term campaign of propaganda, and in the end propigated so many lies as Your Reverence.

Which brings up an interesting related point: you now find yourself at odds with the mass of Republicans, the Republican House and Senate, and the GOP front runner, Donald Trump. You are ratcheting up your support for the failed Project Ukraine at the very same moment that most of the conservative movement, including most of Free Republic, has seen the lies for what they are, and tired of the war in Ukraine.

I speculated some time ago that you would become increasingly isolated on the Right, and like so many of you fellow neocon war-mongers make the trek to the Democrat Party. Like Bill Kristol, Mitt Romney and Liz Cheney, to name but a few.

Are you supporting Biden's re-electiob yet? The logic of your strident support for Ukraine almost requires it.

--- "My son just married a wonderful Russian girl”

It was mentioned, as the sentence above in incomplete, that "Nov 4,2023 with a K-1 visa [Interestingly, had to be processed in Poland!]"

Some information:

Overview: What Is a K-1 Visa?
The fiancé(e) K-1 nonimmigrant visa is for the foreign-citizen fiancé(e) of a United States (U.S.) citizen. The K-1 visa permits the foreign-citizen fiancé(e) to travel to the United States and marry his or her U.S. citizen sponsor within 90 days of arrival. The foreign-citizen will then apply for adjustment of status to a permanent resident (LPR) with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS). Because a fiancé(e) visa permits the holder to immigrate to the U.S. and marry a U.S. citizen shortly after arrival in the United States, the fiancé(e) must meet some of the requirements of an immigrant visa. Eligible children of K-1 visa applicants receive K-2 visas.

Nonimmigrant Visa for a Fianc(é)e (K-1) US Department of State

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I would presume that anyone in the world could register a domain through GoDaddy and the associated Domains By Proxy while creating content outside of the United States (see below).

“As of 2023, GoDaddy is the world’s fifth largest web host by market share, with over 62 million registered domains. The company has around 21 million customers and over 6,900 employees worldwide.”

Indeed, the comment is made by the content creator named "Reporting from Ukraine" who actually reports from the United States.

— The web is worldwide —

A web store can be operated from any node on the internet.

As you have directed me to your comment #17, again, it’s the publicly available domain registrar GoDaddy, and Domains By Proxy, located in Arizona, for both “uasupporter.com” and “goldenheart.store” which does not in any way indicate the location of the YouTube content creator Reporting from Ukraine.

“Stop playing the “victim.”

Typically, I post #1 article daily: the ‘Update on Ukraine.’

FR is a wonderful forum for the exposure of information to help each of us avoid being ‘spoon-fed’ MSM information as valid to just regurgitate later. We should avoid the EVASION of our intellectual responsibility. Each of our pursuit of knowledge is vital to determine the difference between what “we believe to be true” and “what is true.”

Some choose NOT to extend freedom of expression to others that hold a differing point of view. Subsequently, these folks have made comments:
1. to organize an effort to withhold contributions to FR
2. to offer a bonus donation if I am removed from FR!

Case in point: note my last comment at #20.
The rest of the comments are from ‘distractors,’ detractors’ and ‘repeaters’ that refuse to post to topic.

My aged mentor once stated these very true words: “you cannot make rational sense out of irrationality.”

Such as illustrated by Rocco DiPippo: “You get the treatment and criticisms you deserve.”

When the consortium of Ukrainan nationalist posters talk about the start of the war being February, 2022, I submit the words of John McCain from December, 2013:

In December 2013
John McCain, live from Kyiv,tells CNN the US delegation in Ukraine is seeking to "bring about" a "transition" in the country(remove the government)

Declares how "pleased" he is that Victoria Nuland is with him on the scene, attempting to achieve this goal

Should I not presume that domain registration through GoDaddy is actually available to entities outside of the United States?

I have not recently read your link...

https://www.godaddy.com/legal/agreements/domain-name-registration-agreement

Have you read it, and does it exclude domain registration from outside of the U.S.?

I would say holding their own, Russia on the other hand which talks about invading Poland and the Baltic states can’t even handle Ukraine

So how is Russia doing, still almost taking bakmut, still almost taking adiivka, still having their fleet reduced, still getting assistance from the likes of China, NK, and Iran. Begging Saudi to reduce oil production, begging Egypt for helicopter engines, oil net revenue way down, military export market gone, exporter to importer,national wealth fund zeroing out, legacy Soviet inventory dwindling. NATO expanding, next mobilization coming

Would I say Ukraine is winning, no but holding their own, Russia winning? If you say so

If people identify as Ukrainian, they should live in Ukraine.

So…people who identify as Russian should live in Russia, right?

Well that’s exactly the issue here: people in Ukraine who identify as Russian didn’t want Ukrainian citizenship, so they took up arms against the Ukrainian government and got the Russian army to supply them with weapons, and Putin ultimately invaded. If the Russians simply left, then there would be peace - Russian living in Russia and Ukrainians living in Ukraine. Problem solved.

Rusky Go Home!

Again so, don’t want to contribute to warthog, don’t view don’t subscribe, there are other channels with millions of subscribers who cut grass and make more than warthog or Denys are they evil too

There are also pro Russian YouTube channels, I never see you calling them out. Guess supporting Russia is okay, and making money off that is fine?

How about start your own channel or podcast, I am sure many would be interested in your take. Call it NMCNMFNMP

Then donate to whatever causes you support
