This is why they toppled the government in Kiev in 2014, despite knowing it would likely trigger war and knowing that only a small minority of Ukrainians wanted NATO membership. This is why they have sabotaged every peace deal for 12 years. This is why NATO chants that weapons are the path to peace, and basic diplomacy has been boycotted since 2022. This is why they pump billions into a corrupt system that keeps an extremely unpopular Zelensky in power and hunt for Ukrainian conscripts. This is why they pretend Ukraine is winning even as all evidence indicates otherwise. This is why we are not allowed to debate the overwhelming evidence of NATO's role without smears, intimidation, and censorship. The goal was never peace; it was to set up Ukrainians as cannon fodder to weaken a strategic rival of NATO.

Russian President Vladimir Putin was always pro-western in the sense that he believed in a European security structure and a close relationship with countries like Germany.

The US have done everything to undermine such a European security structure......

[Glenn Diesen @Glenn_Diesen]

Russia will retaliate against some NATO countries for their direct involvement in attacks. The NATO media will spin it as the desperate actions by a failing president as opposed to Russia restoring its deterrence. The conclusion will therefore not be to back off, but to continue the attacks. We are heading toward total war with the world's largest nuclear power.

The US attacked Iran a second time, and Trump has once again threatened to end Iran's existence

[Glenn Diesen @Glenn_Diesen]

Stubb discusses the need kill Russian soldiers to end the war. He does not mention that the NATO countries have blocked all peace agreements and the Europeans have boycotted diplomacy for more than 4 years. The goal is not peace, but using Ukrainians to weaken Russia. Future generations will condemn these warmongers for the disaster they are leading us into.

RT @Glenn_Diesen: NATO-financed military recruiters in Ukraine

[Marta Havryshko @HavryshkoMarta]

The EU's refusal to grant asylum to Ukrainian men of draft age is yet another piece of evidence that the war in Ukraine is a Western proxy war against Russia.

Ukrainian men are treated as cannon fodder.

Ukrainian land has become both a killing field and a testing ground for next-generation weapons and technologies.

Ukraine has become the West's military outpost.

Israeli airstrikes are now hitting Lebanon in what is likely an effort to restart the war and derail the U.S.–Iran MoU

[Glenn Diesen @Glenn_Diesen]

3 months ago, John Mearsheimer was making the argument for why the Iran War had already been lost. I remember the angry feedback, as much of the public has been indoctrinated into believing that recognising battlefield realities meant that he was cheering for Iran against his own country. Similarly, Mearsheimer recognising that Russia is winning the war is consistently framed as a "pro-Russian" analysis. In this era of intellectual dishonesty, we are lucky to have people like Mearsheimer.

PRÄSIDENT PUTINS BOTSCHAFT AN DIE DEUTSCHE REGIERUNG UND DAS DEUTSCHE VOLK

So wird der Gnadenstoß versetzt – ohne Waffen, verbal… 🥳

„Wir wollen euch nicht angreifen! Warum sollten wir? Diese Zeiten sind längst vorbei! Jeder, der noch bei Verstand ist und klar denken kann, versteht das.

Erstens:

Ihr habt bereits Staatsschulden in Höhe von 2,5 Billionen Euro, und kein seriöser Wirtschaftswissenschaftler hat eine Ahnung, wie ihr die jemals zurückzahlen wollt. Und jetzt wollt ihr weitere 1 Billion Euro aufnehmen, um euch gegen uns zu bewaffnen. Wollt ihr, dass das russische Volk diese Schulden bezahlt? Niemals!

Zweitens: Euer Land ist voller Millionen von Migranten, die euch 50 Milliarden Euro im Jahr kosten. Sollte das russische Volk dafür zur Rechenschaft gezogen werden?

Drittens: Ein beträchtlicher Teil eurer Bevölkerung ist so verrückt, dass er glaubt, das Klima durch Fahrradfahren und Insektenessen beeinflussen zu können. Vielleicht ließe sich dieser massive Hirnschaden beheben, aber das würde uns auch etwas kosten.“ viel.

Viertens: – Euer Bildungssystem war einst vorbildlich. Jetzt findet in vielen Klassen praktisch kein Unterricht mehr statt, weil fast niemand mehr Deutsch spricht.

Fünftens: – Eure Infrastruktur verfällt, und ihr kommt mit den Reparaturen nicht voran.

Sechstens: – Eure Eisenbahnen waren einst der ganze Stolz der Welt. Jetzt fahren eure Züge wie in Indien.

Siebtens: – Wir brauchen eure berühmten Ingenieure nicht. Während der Sanktionen haben wir gelernt, dass wir ohne sie auskommen können. Sollten wir sie aber doch brauchen, wenden wir uns an China. Dort sind sie nicht nur billiger, sondern auch besser.

Achtens: – Ihr habt weder Rohstoffe noch Energiequellen. Warum sollten wir also euer Land erobern? Um Probleme zu lösen, die wir sonst gar nicht hätten? Realistisch betrachtet: Selbst wenn ihr uns rufen, kapitulieren und weiße Fahnen hissen würdet, würden wir trotzdem nicht kommen!

Diesen advarer mot at Skandinavia blir slagmark mellom USA og Russland

Glenn Diesen tegner et mørkt bilde av Norges plass i en multipolar verden. Slik han ser det, gjør Norge og Skandinavia seg selv til frontlinje mot Russland, og da blir vi også et mål.

Under den kalde krigen fant Norge en trygg balanse, mener han: vi var med i NATO, men holdt baser og militær aktivitet i nord nede for ikke å provosere Sovjetunionen. Avskrekking ble veid opp mot avspenning. Den andre halvdelen har vi nå skrotet, hevder Diesen, samtidig som amerikanerne definerer Arktis som en framtidig frontlinje og vil ha baser over hele Skandinavia.

Konsekvensen, slik han ser den: Norge øker sin verdi for USA ved å gjøre seg til en lojal forpost, villig til å kjempe og dø for et amerikansk imperium som uansett er på vei ut. Våpenfabrikker, gass og Arktis gjør oss til mål dersom Russland en dag vil svare. Et russisk angrep betyr ikke tropper over grensen, tror han, men bombing av strategiske mål. Han sier rett ut at han skulle ønske han var mer optimistisk på Norges vegne.

The massive NATO-backed attack on Moscow demonstrates that our rulers have lost their minds. The reason for Russia's restraint is that once it retaliates against NATO, there will be no escalation control, and the conflict will likely spiral into nuclear war.

[Glenn Diesen @Glenn_Diesen]

Our political-media establishment is selling a long war to the public by pushing the narrative of Ukraine winning. As the proxy war against Russia is sold to the public as being driven by empathy for Ukrainians, it is important to defend that narrative from inconvenient facts about how NATO is fighting to the last Ukrainian to weaken a strategic rival. Our politicians and "journalists" will not discuss the brutal NATO-funded recruitment, or "busification," of Ukrainian men, nor the horrific casualties. Empathy is weaponized for war, and it is problematic if the public concludes that perhaps weapons are not the path to peace, and perhaps diplomacy is not appeasement.
In the most recent exchange of fallen soldiers, Russia returned 522 bodies to Ukraine and Ukraine sent 33 bodies to Russia.
Marta Havryshko cites the following numbers:
According to the published body-exchange data, Ukraine received 18,346 bodies of fallen soldiers, while Russia received 590.
2026:
18 June: To Ukraine - 522, to Russia - 33.
15 May: To Ukraine - 526, to Russia - 41.
9 Apr.: To Ukraine - 1000, to Russia - 41.
15 May: To Ukraine - 526, to Russia - 41.

26 Feb.: To Ukraine - 1000, to Russia - 30.
29 Jan.: To Ukraine - 1000, to Russia - 38.
2025:
20 Nov.: To Ukraine - 1000, to Russia - 30.
18 Sept.: To Ukraine - 1000, to Russia - 24.
19 Aug.: To Ukraine - 1000, to Russia - 19.
17 July: To Ukraine - 1000, To Russia - 17.
16 June: To Ukraine - 1245. To Russia - 78.
15 June: To Ukraine - 1200. ?
14 June: To Ukraine - 1200. ?

11 June: To Ukraine - 1212. To Russia - 27.
16 May: To Ukraine - 909. To Russia - 34.
18 April: To Ukraine - 909. To Russia - 41.
28 March: To Ukraine - 909. To Russia - 43.
14 Feb.: To Ukraine - 757. To Russia - 45.
24 Jan.: To Ukraine - 757. To Russia - 49.

*** These numbers are skewed by the fact that Russia is advancing, thus more bodies end up under Russian control. Yet, our incessant war propaganda also pushes the narrative that the frontlines are holding and that Ukraine is even retaking territory. All media stories are designed to sell a long war and the facts get in the way. Empathy is only valuable to the extent NATO can send more Ukrainians to their deaths and make sure that the public does not ask why our leaders have boycotted diplomacy for more than 4 years. The public has been propagandised for 12 years to believe that ignoring what the majority of Ukrainians want is "pro-Ukraine", while challenging the narrative for a long war is "pro-Russian".

[Glenn Diesen @Glenn_Diesen]

A refinery in Moscow is burning, yet there is zero discussion in the media about the growing NATO involvement in these attacks on Russia. These attacks involve NATO weapons, intelligence, targeting, and even contractors, yet even discussing risks is believed to be "pro-Russian". If we still had journalism, then our chances of surviving would be much greater.

Kleiner Hinweis an die Ukraine-Fans, Kriegstreiber und #NAFO-Trottel:
ihr werdet in schätzungsweise 3-5 Tagen wieder erbärmlich jammern, wenn die Retourkutsche von #Russland für den heutigen Angriff auf #Moskau kommt.
Ihr könnt jetzt auch gerne damit kommen, dass die #Ukraine das Recht hat sich zu verteidigen - das streite ich auch nicht ab. Ebenso streite ich nicht ab, dass Russland 2022 den Krieg begonnen hat. Mir geht es nur darum, dass ihr nicht begreift dass die Gewaltspirale sich immer weiter und schneller dreht, und dass solche Angriffe nur weiter eskalieren, aber kein Problem lösen und Russland auch zu nichts bewegen werden - außer dass es immer schlimmer wird für die Menschen in der Ukraine.
Jeder Tote ist einer zu viel, egal ob Russe oder Ukrainer. Die Lösung kann ausschließlich Diplomatie heißen, und da muss man die Realität auch mal akzeptieren - nämlich dass Russland niemals auf die besetzten Gebiete im Osten der Ukraine verzichten wird.
Und wenn das nicht anerkannt wird, niemand mal mit Putin spricht, gibt es zwei Dinge, von denen eines mindestens passieren wird: entweder Europa wird mit in den Krieg reingezogen, und/oder es eskaliert so sehr, dass irgendwann jemand den roten Knopf drückt.
So, jetzt Feuer frei für euch, beleidigt mich, kommentiert mit euren komischen Bildern die ich schon tausendmal gesehen habe, oder was auch immer. Interessiert mich nicht, stört mich nicht.
