In less than 24 hours part of Ukraine becomes part of Russia and NATO just held a secret meeting to ramp up the war. Vladimir Putin pointed the finger directly at the U.S. for its attack on the Nord Stream pipelines. Germany is on the brink of collapse as German energy experts point to coming blackouts.
It doesn’t what you, Joe Biden or the UN think. It’s how Putin perceives the referendum.
“It’s how Putin perceives the referendum.”
Putin can evade reality all he wants. But he can’t evade the consequences of evading reality.
It’s like you calling yourself smart. You can say it all you want but that won’t make it true.

I’ll catch Alexander and the Duran tonight. Thanks.
“In less than 24 hours part of Ukraine becomes part of Russia...”
Sure, like when I was a kid and my sister would draw a line covering 2/3s of the back seat of the car and claim it was “her side”.
Of course nobody but she actually agreed to that line, but in her mind, it was quite legitimate.
You can declare that a three legged dog is a cat. You can do that every morning, noon, and night for months.
And it will still be a three legged dog.
‼️🇺🇦☠️The SBU creates a concentration camp in Nikolaev
As part of Kyiv’s preparations for an offensive in the Nikolaev-Krivoy Rog direction, the SBU is creating special camps to identify & punish pro-Russian citizens and create an agent network.
Since mid-September a filtration camp with a capacity of up to 500 people has been equipped in Nikolaev. The goal is to search for disloyal citizens & carry out demonstrative punitive actions against them.
The SBU also intends to use the filtration camp for recruiting agents. The agents are planned to be used for sabotages in the Crimea and the Kherson region.
Unfortunately, you don’t get a say.
But you earned your red Star sticker for the day.
It’s a great plan until Ukraine suddenly acquires missiles with a range to strike Moscow...
“We were not prepared for such wear and tear on the howitzers. They were never even tested under such conditions. This kind of ammunition consumption was not foreseen by either weapons manufacturers or development program managers”
Are you sure this is correct? What did they design them for? Or could this be intentional misinformation from the military to make the Russians think the howitzers are in disrepair?
In 1814 the British Navy fired cannons at Fort Henry for 25 straight hours. Even with muzzle loading cannons that’s quite a lot of rounds. Modern equipment should be capable of at least that.
“Abraham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has if you count the tail as a leg. When they answered ‘five,’ Lincoln told them that the answer was four. The fact that you called the tail a leg did not make it a leg.”
⚡️BREAKING NEWS⚡️
I’m WORRIED that Donbass territories will become part of (https://t.me/IntelRepublic/5699) Russia, this can happen because if Putin has something in mind, he will DO IT - Turkish President Erdogan.

Well the Ukrainian Army gets a vote too, Russia can catterwaul about annexation all they want, if the Ukrainians take Kherson and Lyman and continue to batter the Russian Army it’s going to be a hollow declaration.
Might Makes Right, we’ll see how it turns out.
“Demand could be falling as well (at least for now)”
Correct. The problem for Putin and his ex-communist cadres is they never understood how the free market works. They adapt much faster than the autocratic systems they are used to.
The picture in Powell’s hand looks as if it was drawn by a child. You think the folks knew what Powell was trying to say? You think Powell knew? I think they’re all afraid to find the truth and that’s why they have not touched the pipeline since it was damaged.
I would expect the barrels are only good for about 500 rounds tops.
Good one!
