Ukraine on Fire - Oliver Stone (2016)
Full Video - 1hr 37min -
Ukraine. Across its eastern border is Russia and to its west-Europe. For centuries, it has been at the center of a tug-of-war between powers seeking to control its rich lands and access to the Black Sea. 2014's Maidan Massacre triggered a bloody uprising that ousted president Viktor Yanukovych and painted Russia as the perpetrator by Western media. But was it? "Ukraine on Fire" by Igor Lopatonok provides a historical perspective for the deep divisions in the region which lead to the 2004 Orange Revolution, 2014 uprisings, and the violent overthrow of democratically elected Yanukovych. Covered by Western media as a people's revolution, it was in fact a coup d'état scripted and staged by nationalist groups and the U.S. State Department. Investigative journalist Robert Parry reveals how U.S.-funded political NGOs and media companies have emerged since the 80s replacing the CIA in promoting America's geopolitical agenda abroad.

Reports: Up to 400,000 Ukrainian soldiers have already died
By: editorial staff
October 25, 2022
Since the start of the war, 1,200 Ukrainian soldiers have died every day, according to OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) reports on social media. A new wave of mobilization is imminent to add new victims to the war. Ukrainian field hospitals often only exist on paper, which is why wounding often means death, according to other sources. Other (Western) estimates put up to 200,000 dead , the Ukrainian leadership speaks of less than 20,000 dead and wounded.
Kyiv. The irreparable losses of the Armed Forces of Ukraine as of October 20, 2022 amounted to 402,000 people, of which 387,000 were killed. Losses among mercenaries and volunteers from Poland, the Baltic States and Romania amounted to 54,000, of which 31,240 people were killed. This is reported by military bloggers on Twitter and other platforms, citing previously unpublished investigations by the OSINT (Open Source Intelligence) network.
OSINT calculates the figures based on all available sources, such as reports from funeral homes, extracts from morgues and the results of an analysis of radio, mobile and satellite communications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
Ukrainian bloggers try to ridicule these figures, but cannot credibly deny that the number of deaths is significantly higher than stated by the Zelensky regime. This is simply due to the conduct of war with breakneck “offensives” that are paid for with thousands of deaths. If you convert the information from OSINT, the losses of the Ukrainian armed forces in the 8 months of the war amounted to 1,200 deaths per day. The leadership of Ukraine announced the number of 10,000 dead after 100 days of war; most recently they spoke of less than 20,000 dead and wounded soldiers.
Western sources speak of up to 200,000 dead
However, the Western military's assessments are also far from Ukraine's data: the former deputy head of the US European Command, Stephen Twitty, said in an interview with the Linke Zeitung that “200,000 fighters somehow mysteriously left the armed forces of Ukraine have disappeared and no one can say where they are today”. “Ukraine is losing 6,000 soldiers every month, which is 12 times more than America lost in Vietnam,” said retired colonel and veteran former Senator Richard Black. The “Neue Zürcher Zeitung” wrote in July that the Ukrainian army was killing 200 people every day.
According to Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu, the Armed Forces of Ukraine lost more than 100,000, of which 61,207 people were killed and 49,368 people were injured.
“Field hospitals only exist on paper”
Ukrainian sources report that the high number of deaths relative to wounded may be plausible because wounded Ukrainian soldiers “die like flies,” and in Ukraine, serious wounds often mean certain death, since “Ukrainian field hospitals are only on the Paper exists and no one cares about the wounded.”
Just yesterday, the Ukrainian leadership announced a new wave of mobilization to obtain new “meat”. According to intercepted radio messages, the Nazi commanders of Azov use the term “meat” to describe poorly trained volunteers who are thrown into the front lines to keep the enemy busy.
The USA, the EU, Great Britain and other countries are constantly supplying new weapons to Ukraine and prolonging the senseless death of a people who are being lied to from start to finish. Peace negotiations are being sabotaged and torpedoed by the West in order to prolong the war against Russia.

The Ukrainian offensive is not only at a standstill, the Russian army will defeat the Ukrainian army of the US and NATO. Agree, this is better than if the United States, NATO, Russia and everything else disappear as a result of a nuclear war.
“The Ukrainian counter-offensive is at a dead end. The West must prepare for humiliation"
An article with a very telling title was published today on the pages of The Sunday Telegraph by retired British Colonel Richard Kemp. He writes: “Time is running out for Ukraine. After 18 months of war, the question is no longer whether the Western alliance will falter, but when it will happen.”

The ATACMS that the United States will transfer to Ukraine have one goal: to bomb and destroy the Kerch Bridge, as well as bomb Crimea. All Ukrainian attacks on Russia are directed by the United States, relying on American intelligence and targeting.
Victoria Nuland, the publicity figure for the US war against Russia using Ukraine, wants Ukraine to bomb and destroy Crimea.

Russia is building military bases near the Finnish border.
Finland's Defense Minister Antti Haakkenen said that the changes observed in the satellite images are not a threat to the country.
Retired Finnish army major Marko Eklund believes that the priority task of the Petrozavodsk military depot near the Finnish border will probably be to refurbish and supply equipment to the Ukrainian war front.

📌#Avdeevka
❌#Debunk
Reports suggesting an enemy advance in Opytne & Pervomaiskoye area in the Avdeevka saliant are premature; the enemy did transfer 1 worn out brigade, and 1 fresh brigade from the strategic reserve to this sector to intensify attacks - and with it, a company of French AMX-10RC "MBTs".
Yes, the enemy has increased intensifications. A defining feature is that they decided to transfer foreign mercenaries here. But no, we have not lost any positions. This was even recognised by the enemy.

🇷🇺🇧🇷🛢#oil
Bloomberg is concerned!
An oil tanker carrying Russian crude is now approaching the Brazilian coastline after a 16-day journey from a terminal in the Arctic Ocean.
According to vessel tracking data compiled by Bloomberg, the Aframax-class tanker Stratos Aurora is now about 500 miles from the Latin American country's waters. It loaded about 650,000 barrels from Murmansk on Aug. 22.
According to tracking data, if the tanker unloads in Brazil, it will be the first time Russian oil has been shipped to that South American country since at least 2016.
At the same time, RIA Novosti, citing data from the Brazilian customs, reports that Brazil in August increased imports of oil products from Russia by 2.1 times - up to the highest in history 920 thousand tons, which is three times more than the volume purchased from the nearest competitor - the United States (311 thousand tons). The value of Russian supplies increased 2.4 times to $673 million.

‼️🇺🇦🏴☠️Zelensky threatened Europe with problems with Ukrainian migrants if aid to Ukraine was reduced
▪️In an interview with The Economist, Zelensky said that reductions in Western aid to Ukraine could cause an unpredictable reaction from millions of Ukrainian refugees in European countries. Adding that a long war of attrition will mean that Ukraine will lose even more people, both on the front line and due to emigration.
▪️Also during the interview, he noted that given the lack of significant progress at the front, on the eve of elections in the West, and especially in the United States, it will be difficult to maintain assistance.

MEP Marcel de Graaf: In fact, Russia is already a big winner in this US/NATO conflict: de-dollarization, expansion of Russian influence everywhere but the West, growing economy, resistance to Western sanctions. While the EU is already the big loser: economic decline, deindustrialization, becoming a US lapdog, suicidal sanctions.
The outcome of the G20 summit in India speaks for itself: The West has lost the ability to force the rest of the world into submission.

The complete collapse of the Ukrainian army is only a matter of time, but the United States will never allow official defeat. The Ukrainian conflict will escalate into an open war between the United States and Russia, but the West will lose in it, analyst Lars Bern is convinced in an interview with SwebbTV.
Western powers have “no chance,” he said, partly because Russia has much greater industrial potential. The West cannot defeat Russia with conventional weapons, therefore, the conflict will go into the nuclear phase.
In this case, Moscow will use its 100-ton intercontinental missiles with nuclear weapons, each of which is capable of destroying entire countries. “The Russians have absolutely grotesque weapons that they can use against the West,” the expert explained.

The Ukrainian Foreign Minister brazenly requested Taurus missiles from Germany.
During a press conference with the German Foreign Ministry, Kuleba stated that Germany would still supply Ukraine with Taurus missiles, emphasizing that it's only a matter of time. The Ukrainian foreign minister expressed his bewilderment, asking, "Why waste time?"
Berbok did not commit to providing missiles, but, by way of an explanation, she pledged to increase emergency aid to Ukraine by €20 million.
In general, Kiev's diplomats consistently approach Berlin with sharp criticism. The most notable figure known for this stance is former Ukrainian ambassador Melnyk, who regularly criticized the German authorities.

“They don’t come here to attack us because we’re rich and we’re free. They attack us because we’re over there.” 16 years ago in the GOP debates,
told the American people that 9/11 was “blowback” for the wars in the Middle East. For some, this was the first time a politician had given them a serious explanation other than “they hate us for our freedoms.” It was a harsh reminder that history didn’t begin on 9/11. It kicked off the Ron Paul REVOLution.
