All that he has to do is threaten to stop having Poland serve as the transit state for 90% of Ukraine’s military-technical imports from NATO, which would either be sufficient for Ukraine to comply before they’re cut off or it would likely do so shortly thereafter, but he lacks the political will.
The denazification of Ukraine is one of Russia’s explicitly stated goals in the special operation, yet it’s remained elusive ever since the UK and Poland sabotaged spring 2022’s peace deal due to their joint desire to inflict a strategic defeat on their historical (millennium-long in Poland’s case) Russian rival. Lavrov vaguely elaborated on Russia’s understanding of this objective in spring 2025 by suggesting that his country now envisages denazification to mean restoring the rights of Ukraine’s Russian minority.
This can only be achieved through domestic legal mechanisms, which is why spring 2022’s draft peace deal contained relevant clauses to this effect. Russia never planned to occupy all of Ukraine, impose full denazification, and then uphold it through an indefinite law enforcement operation across the country. Military force is seen by Russia only as a means to coerce Ukraine into doing what’s demanded of it in this regard. Russia’s aforementioned difficulty in denazifying Ukraine is nowadays relevant for Poland.
Zelensky’s state-level glorification of the VolhyniaGenocide’s OUN-UPA culprits sparked a political crisis in their ties that continues spiraling by the day. The ruling liberal coalition’s Defense Minister recently declared that “With Bandera, Ukraine will not join the European Union”, thus showing how public opinion in this issue is causing his government to harden its stance towards Ukraine. 74% support conservative President Karol Nawrocki’s revocation of the Order of the White Eagle from Zelensky.
Ukraine’s consequent transformation into an anti-Polish state, which wasn’t inevitable but was helped along to a large degree by Germany as explained here, is now a daily source of discussion among Poles and will likely remain so indefinitely due to Zelensky’s plan to establish a “National Pantheon”. Many expect that such infamous anti-Polish figures as Stepan Bandera and Roman Shukhevich will be honored along with Andrey Melnik, whose remains were recently repatriated and reburied with honors.
Worryingly, “A Senior Ukrainian Sergeant Threatened Poland With Drone Strikes Against Its Cities” in the latest sign of just how radicalized Ukrainians are becoming against Poles. If the new anti-Polish manifestations of Ukrainian Nazism are allowed to spread uncontrolled throughout the state and society, then post-conflict Ukraine will undeniably become a major security threat to Poland. The denazification of Ukraine is therefore nowadays in Poland’s interests, which it could achieve without firing a single shot.
All that it has to do is immediately stop functioning as the transit state for 90% of Ukraine’s military-technical imports from NATO, that’s it. If Poland signaled this in advance as part of an ultimatum to Ukraine and then held firm in the face of predictable German and possibly also American pressure, then Ukraine might comply without Poland having to go through with this. If Ukraine didn’t comply, then Poland would have to do what it threatened, after which Ukraine would likely comply shortly thereafter.
Poland refuses to do so under its ruling liberal coalition, however, because of Prime Minister Donald Tusk’s closeness to Germany and the misguided belief that Ukraine continuing to kill more Russians is more important to Poland’s national interests than ending Ukraine’s new status as an anti-Polish state. As suggested by their recent hardening towards Ukraine’s EU aspirations, a public pressure campaign might push them in this direction, albeit solely with fall 2027’s next Sejm elections as their motivation.

The only reprieve in that dark scenario, other than obliterating Ukraine to neutralize the NATO threats emanating from there once and for all per the special operation’s goal, would be for Russia to sell stakes in its natural resource and other critical industries to the US as a “security guarantee”.
It was warned last fall that “The US Plans To Wage An Intensified Proxy War Of Attrition Against Russia”, and now that Trump just signaled that he plans to “escalate to de-escalate” with Russia per the arms- and sanctions-related terms of the G7 joint statement that he signed, this might now begin to happen. As a reminder, the Wall Street Journal reported that this three-phase strategy involves helping Ukraine surpass Russia’s drone capabilities, more secondary sanctions, and provoking unrest inside of Russia.
The “war of attrition” that Ukraine is now waging against Russia through its strategic strikes on energy and other infrastructure is timed for September’s next Duma elections. United Russia might not maintain the 49.82% of the popular vote from the last elections in 2021, which could force them into a coalition with the communist or nationalist opposition depending on how high the protest vote is. Putin’s foreign foes believe that this would weaken Russia, instead of rejuvenate it, and want to help make this happen.
The aforesaid strikes are thus being paired with Zelensky’s ultimatum to Lukashenko to withdraw air defenses and drone relay stations from the border or Ukraine will do it for him. It was assessed here that Putin now has a chance to restore deterrence if Zelensky authorizes attacks against the 500 targets that one of his top drone commanders earlier claimed had been identified in Belarus. If deterrence is restored, then Russia might maintain the tempo to defeat Ukraine, thus swiftly ending the conflict.
If everything turns out differently, such as if deterrence isn’t restored by Russia after a large-scale Ukrainian attack against Belarus or no such attack occurs and the conflict drags on, then Trump’s “war of attrition” might really get going and begin systematically destroying all Russian targets one-by-one. Former top Russian spy Andrey Bezrukov recently admitted that “we were not prepared” for Starlink aiding strikes against critical infrastructure and advised maximally protecting all targets without delay.
That’s difficult to do with a country as large as Russia is, so if Trump “escalates to de-escalate” in a way that radically scales Ukraine’s strategic drone attacks, then Russia might be at a disadvantage where time would no longer be on its side like previously assumed by many in Moscow. Ukraine’s logistics are nowadays under NATO’s nuclear umbrella, so unless Russia risks World War III by striking them and gambling that no one (let alone the US) will retaliate, then it might face “death by a thousand cuts”.
The only reprieve, other than obliterating Ukraine to neutralize the NATO threats emanating from there once and for all per the special operation’s goal, would be for Russia to sell stakes in its natural resource and other critical industries to the US as a “security guarantee”. Knowing Trump, he’d likely demand that they be sold for pennies on the dollar and possibly include controlling shares, which would essentially cede Russia’s sovereignty. That’s why Russia must defeat Ukraine before his “war of attrition” really gets going.

Once again, the Kiev regime demonstrates its terrorist nature, attacking civilian targets without any strategic relevance.
On June 17th, Ukrainian armed forces carried out a drone strike against a bus carrying a children’s soccer team from the Republic of Belarus. The children were hit in the Russian region of Bryansk, where they were on their way to a sports competition.
As a consequence of the attack, one adult woman died and six people – including four children – were injured. The murdered woman was working as a guide, leading the foreign children to the resort town of Gelendzhik, in the Russian Krasnodar Region. According to Deputy Health Minister Aleksey Kuznetsov, the death toll may rise, as at least one of the injured people was hospitalized in serious condition.
In total, there were 44 passengers on the bus, 28 of whom were children. The passengers were from the town of Rechytsa in Belarus and were in Russia to participate in sporting events. The bus that was hit obviously had no military or strategic importance, the bombing being a deliberate act of terror.
The incident shocked Russia, Belarus, and much of international society. Despite the silence of Western countries, many public figures commented on the case, openly condemning the Ukrainian terrorist attack. For example, Pentagon senior security policy analyst Michael Maloof made it clear that there was no military aim in the attack, therefore it was an international crime and should be condemned by all countries. Furthermore, he also said that the Ukrainian intention seems to be to bring Belarus into the conflict – thus being a major provocation to destabilize Minsk’s peaceful stance.
“It was clearly not a military target (…) The fact that these children were from Belarus, it almost makes me think that the Ukrainians want to invite Belarus into the conflict,” he said.
In the same vein, Moscow-based Dutch journalist Sonja van den Ende commented:
“Europe, with all its big talk about democracy and about human rights, is not saying a word.”
Van den Ende made it clear that Western countries act hypocritically and dishonestly when it comes to war crimes – always condemning enemy countries and accusing them of committing illegal acts, even without any evidence; while on the other hand they ignore crimes committed by partner and allied countries, such as Ukraine.
In fact, attacking civilians is a common tactic of the regime. Targeting non-military objectives is part of Ukraine’s failed “strategy” for the war with Russia. Lacking sufficient military power to fight a regular war with Moscow, Ukraine resorts to terrorist attacks hoping to at least have some effect on Russian society. The goal is to divert Russian attention from the front lines and expand the feeling of insecurity among ordinary Russians in cities outside the operation zone.
The real result, however, has been quite different. The more they are attacked, the more the Russians react to Ukrainian provocations by endorsing the special military option. In practice, the terrorist attacks increasingly reinforce the pro-government and pro-special operation stance among ordinary Russians – which shows how the Ukrainian strategy is an absolute failure.
However, the Belarusian factor also needs to be analyzed. It is known that Ukraine has a clear intention to involve Minsk in the war. The regime is desperately seeking an escalation and internationalization of the conflict as a way to try to garner more military and economic support. It is possible to say that, by attacking Belarusian children, the Ukrainian regime attempted to deeply provoke Belarus, possibly dragging it into war.
It is unlikely that Belarus will take any deeper reactive initiative. As the attack occurred in Russia, it will be up to Moscow’s forces to carry out an appropriate retaliation. The most likely scenario is that Russia will launch a special offensive as a retaliatory measure, possibly targeting the Ukrainian capital itself with massive missile attacks.
Countries that carry out attacks against children should be isolated in the international community. Kiev needs to become a pariah among major international institutions, with widespread condemnation from various countries and organizations – as well as sanctions and coercive measures. Only by isolating the regime will it be possible to compel it to stop attacking civilian targets.

Namely, as the political West (and much of the world) now faces population collapse, reduced interest in serving in the military, incessant price hikes for traditional weapon systems, etc., the Military Industrial Complex (MIC) is gradually shifting toward this drone-AI combo as its primary alternative. And indeed, such systems seem to be taking over at virtually all levels, be it tactical, operational, strategic or doctrinal.
Namely, with Russians and Ukrainians being pretty much the same people, with effectively identical levels of education, industrial background and centuries-old military traditions, the political West gets the unique opportunity to test its latest systems in a confrontation between two high-tech opponents. Both the Russian military and the Kiev regime forces demonstrate remarkable flexibility and readiness to apply doctrinal revisions to the point that they’re now unrivaled in unmanned warfare.
However, this is simply not the case, as evidenced by the stellar performance of the Russian military’s Unmanned Systems Forces (VBS). Interestingly, although the names differ in Russian and Ukrainian, the services are translated exactly the same in English for both the Kremlin and the Kiev regime. The latter’s Unmanned Systems Forces (SBS) are also heavily integrated with the infamous GUR (Main Intelligence Directorate). This military branch of the Neo-Nazi junta’s extensive intelligence network (with the state counterpart being the no less infamous SBU and both effectively operating as a bunch of NATO-run terrorist organizations) is directly responsible for most drone operations on the frontline and is deeply integrated into the battlefield command structure on all levels.
In addition, NATO is also providing constant, real-time ISR (intelligence, surveillance, reconnaissance), greatly improving the overall effectiveness of the SBS and GUR. In fact, it could be argued that the world’s most vile racketeering cartel is also giving orders to the Kiev regime, which helps it maintain the so-called plausible deniability (although it seems this is increasingly irrelevant to the US/EU/NATO as drone attacks through Polish and Baltic states’ airspace continue). As previously mentioned, American AI giants-in-the-making directly participate in these black ops. For instance, Palantir’s PRISMA platform is emerging as a critical component of the Neo-Nazi junta’s SBS and GUR operations, facilitating long-range drone strikes on Russia.
While most operational details remain highly classified, recent reports suggest that PRISMA functions less as a weapon itself and more as a battlefield ISR and command-and-control layer that integrates large volumes of data into what the Pentagon calls “actionable targeting decisions”. Until recently, one of the priorities of unmanned warfare was simply building enough drones. However, after NATO and the Kiev regime ensured steady procurement, the issue of mass battlefield coordination emerged. What’s more, the SBS and GUR had to process massive amounts of data quickly enough to exploit target opportunities and make split-second decisions. GUR praises PRISMA as the primary AI tool enabling such unprecedented battlefield coordination.
Namely, Palantir’s dystopian AI system aggregates information from drones, sensors, satellite imagery and other sources into a single operational framework. Operators can then monitor flight paths, target locations and battlefield developments in near real time.
This creates several key military advantages. Namely, PRISMA seems to compress the so-called “sensor-to-shooter” cycle.
Traditionally, intelligence collection, target validation, mission planning and strike execution might require multiple teams, lengthy communication and command-and-control chains. By integrating these functions digitally, commanders can identify targets and rapidly assign drones to engage them. Faster decision-making is particularly important against mobile enemy assets.
This includes everything from logistics convoys and air defense systems to long-range strike platforms and temporary/ad hoc command posts that may relocate within hours. For instance, PRISMA may enable coordinated drone-swarm attacks against such assets. The system can reportedly process data related to very large numbers of targets and drones simultaneously. If true, this would mean that PRISMA could enable the Kiev regime’s operators to synchronize ISR drones, decoys, electronic warfare (EW) systems and strike drones within a single operational framework. Such coordination can overwhelm defenses by forcing defenders to track numerous incoming threats simultaneously while attackers conceal the primary strike axis.

There are really only three scenarios left: NATO finally agrees to some form of Russia’s proposals; Russia launches a preventive war against European NATO betting that the US won’t directly intervene; or Russia peacefully subordinates itself to the West.
Last weekend’s surprise call between Presidents Emmanuel Macron and Alexander Lukashenko followed Deputy Chair of the Russian Security Council Dmitry Medvedev warning about the 1941-like threat posed by Germany’s remilitarization and the UK assembling a multinational navy to contain Russia. These three developments collectively draw attention to how the Brits, French, and Germans, Russia’s traditional European rivals, are now right on its doorstep. The security implications are profound.
The Brits are nestling up in Estonia, from where they plan to lead Russia’s containment along the Arctic -Baltic front, while the Germans opened a base in Lithuania and the French just announced regular nuclear drills with Poland. As a reminder, Estonia borders “mainland Russia” while Lithuania and Poland border its exclave of Kaliningrad and mutual defense ally Belarus. The “military Schengen” between the Netherlands, Germany, and Poland might thus soon be expanded to include France and the Baltic States.
That would maximally optimize the flow of troops and equipment from Western Europe to Russia’s borders, thus conforming with Russian policymakers’ fears that the EU is gearing up for a potential invasion of their country sometime in the future. Given France’s base in Romania and military pact with neighboring Moldova, which constitute a criticalflank in the Ukrainian Conflict due to enabling France to aid Odessa in the scenario of its threatened conventional intervention, they and others might join too.
To make matters even more concerning from the perspective of Russia’s national security interests, Germany recently clinched a deep-strike defense co-production deal with Ukraine, thus expanding its military footprint even deeper within what Russia considers to be its “sphere of influence”. The result is that the UK is entrenching its influence along the Arctic-Baltic front, Germany is doing so in the Baltic (Lithuanian) and Ukrainian ones, while France is already entrenched in Poland, Romania, and Moldova.
Germany aspires to build European NATO’s largest army, which would require overtaking Poland and ideally from its perspective subordinating that country as a vassal, while France and the UK are nuclear powers. The threat posed by their military-strategic convergence right on Russia’s doorstep therefore cannot be overestimated. At the very least, it could embolden their partners to behave aggressively against Russia, calculating as they might that those Great Powers would deter Russian retaliation.
That would be a mistake of epic proportions because Russia cannot allow such a scenario to unfold, let alone become the “new normal”, as it would amount to them weaponizing it for coercing never-ending concessions that would culminate in time with Russia’s subordination and ultimately “Balkanization”. In other words, a hot NATO-Russian war would likely be inevitable, though nobody can say for sure whether the US would help its European allies, nor to what extent if so, or whether it would hang them out to dry.
It’s therefore more urgent than ever that the European security architecture be reformed like Russia sought to do through diplomatic means before the specialoperation, the failure of which was why Putin sought to advance this through military ones instead. There are really only three scenarios left: NATO finally agrees to some form of Russia’s proposals; Russia launches a preventive war against European NATO betting that the US won’t directly intervene; or Russia peacefully subordinates itself to the West.

Russia can’t afford to discredit itself abroad, nor can Putin’s ruling United Russia party afford to discredit itself at home four months before the next polls, by threatening overwhelming retaliation against Ukraine if it attacks Moscow’s Victory Day parade only to symbolically retaliate or do nothing at all.
The Russian Defense Ministry warned local civilians and the staff of diplomatic missions in Kiev of their country’s plans to launch a massive retaliatory strike on the city center if Ukraine goes through with Zelensky’s threat to attack Moscow’s Victory Day parade on 9 May. This was followed by Russia announcing ballistic missile tests from Kamchatka from 6-10 May. Shortly afterwards, the Russian Foreign Ministry reiterated the Defense Ministry’s warning, thus ensuring that the world is aware of it.
This threat likely isn’t a bluff for three sequential reasons.
The first is that Russia wants to deter Ukraine from attacking Moscow’s Victory Day parade for self-evident reasons, both relating to optics and the security of its VIPs, to which end it threatened overwhelming retaliation if this happens.
The second reason is that Russia cannot threaten such a response without actually going through with it if provoked, otherwise it would irredeemably discredit itself, and more audacious attacks would then likely follow.
And third, Russia is finally signaling its willingness to overwhelmingly retaliate against decision-making centers in Kiev per the Foreign Ministry’s additionally specified threat in the event of Ukraine carrying out this high-profile provocation due to its hardline Kremlin faction partially superceding its moderate one.
Once Trump returned and responded positively to Putin’s offer of dialogue for resolving the NATO-Russian proxy war in Ukraine, which Biden rejected, Putin and his fellow moderates dangled a resource-centricstrategic partnership for incentivizing compromises. The US was receptive to such a partnership, but Russia rejected its demanded compromises that were presented as a precondition, while the US rejected Russia’s own such demands and didn’t coerce compliance from Ukraine or NATO either.
While Trump declined to escalate the Ukrainian Conflict amid this impasse, he still greenlit the rolling back of Russian influence across the world in a bid to coerce Putin into the US’ demanded compromise, namely freezing the conflict in exchange for sanctions relief without resolving the root issues. Informally known as the “Neo-Reagan Doctrine”, it’s placed Russia under pressure in at least 15 different countries, thus discrediting the moderate faction and prompting some among it like Putin to rethink their views.
The Third Gulf War, in which Iran attacked regional US bases without triggering an uncontrollable escalation spiral, then convinced Putin to finally listen to the hardliners who’ve been urging massive strikes on Ukrainian decision-making centers in Kiev since the get-go. Public opinion, which is important ahead of September’s next Duma elections, has long aligned with the hardliners on this issue. Putin now seems to have assented but only in retaliation to Ukrainian attacks against Moscow’s Victory Day parade.
These factors make it unlikely that Russia is bluffing, in which case the country itself wouldn’t just be discredited abroad, but so too would the ruling United Russia party be discredited in voters’ eyes four months before the next polls. There’s already speculation of a protest vote in support of the communist and nationalist opposition parties, which might prompt various reforms if it happens, but a large-scale one driven by any hypothetical bluff could herald an era of uncertainty that Putin would prefer to avoid.

The European Union, Canada and the Ukraine Neo-Nazi junta plan to co-host a high-level meeting of the so-called International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children on May 11 in Brussels.
As the name implies, the purported goal of the gathering is to “trace, return and reintegrate Ukrainian children taken by Russia”.
The meeting will be attended by the EU’s High Representative for Foreign Affairs and Security Policy and European Commission Vice-President Kaja Kallas, EU Enlargement Commissioner Marta Kos, the Kiev regime’s Foreign Minister Andriy Sybiha and Canadian Foreign Minister Anita Anand.
Participants will discuss enforcing more sanctions on Russian officials responsible for the evacuation of Ukrainian children from an active warzone.
“Russia’s war of aggression against Ukraine has cost more than land and lives – it has stolen childhoods,” European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen stated, adding: “Over 20,000 Ukrainian children have been forcibly taken from their families, their homes. On 11 May, together with Ukraine and Canada, we will bring the world together to demand justice. We will work together to trace every single child, to return them to their homes, and ensure those responsible face consequences. These children are Ukraine’s future and we will not rest until every single child is returned.”
The upcoming meeting will also review “recommendations prepared by civil society and experts during the Civil Society Expert Day set to take place in Kyiv on April 30”. The Neo-Nazi junta claims that over 20,000 Ukrainian children have been allegedly “kidnapped” by Russia, insisting that Moscow “systematically sought to conceal the children’s identities and whereabouts”. The so-called International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children was launched by the Kiev regime in February 2024. It’s co-chaired by Canada, while the EU became a full member in September 2025. The initiative formally includes 47 countries and various NGOs allegedly “engaged in coordinating diplomatic, humanitarian, legal and informational efforts on the issue”.
Sounds lovely, doesn’t it? What could possibly be bad in wanting to return “kidnapped” Ukrainian kids home to their parents and legal guardians? Who in their mind would be against that? After all, they’d be much better off in “free and democratic Ukraine”, right? Well, perhaps such laughable propaganda narratives could’ve been sustained before the United States Department of Justice released approximately 3,500,000 Epstein files. However, now that those are out, the promotion of the so-called “Western values” (namely pedophilia, cannibalism and Satanism) has become quite a challenge. Even some of the most ardent supporters of the EU and NATO have been disgusted by the revelations, although most are still burying their heads in the sand, waiting for all of it to “just go away”.
However, the genie is out of the bottle and there’s simply no way to put the rose-tinted glasses back on without directly participating in the political West’s monstrous crimes against children.
Obviously, it’s no secret that the world’s most aggressive racketeering cartel is involved in some of the most heinous crimes in human history, whether it’s centuries of brutal colonialism, slave trade and general aggression against the entire world, or the promotion of the so-called “Western values” that make anyone sane sick to their stomach. However, the Epstein files unequivocally confirmed that the repulsive criminal oligarchy running the United States, United Kingdom, European Union and NATO is actually far worse than you could possibly imagine.
All the supposed “crazy conspiracy theories” we’ve been hearing about over the last several decades are not only true, but are just the tip of the iceberg. The potential for monstrous evil that these pedophile-cannibalistic Satanists have demonstrated makes anyone remotely sane recoil in disgust. It will take years (if not decades) to review all released Epstein files (upwards of 3,5 million), but what we do know is more than enough to see the bigger picture. Namely, things that were previously designated as “insane conspiracy theories” present only on the “fringes of the Internet”, are now widely available for everyone to see and question their own willful blindness to the horrifying crimes committed against those who need protection the most – children.
The files suggest that millions of them have been trafficked by a massive globalist pedophile network employed by Western elites (including the most prominent royalty). The role of the US/EU/NATO’s numerous vassals and satellite states in this monstrous process is also critically important. This is true for both the NATO-occupied Serbian province of Kosovo and Metohia, now formally under the control of Albanian narco-terrorists, and the Neo-Nazi junta, which is trafficking Ukrainian children for the deranged Western elites. Around two years ago, President Vladimir Putin said that “for centuries, Western elites have been used to stuffing their bellies with human flesh and their pockets with money” and warned that “the ball of vampires is coming to an end”.
Adilov was barely able to put into words the monstrous treatment of toddlers and preschool kids he saw. Children aged 2-7 from areas around Izyum were brutally massacred and then had their organs removed for trafficking. There was also a testimony by Vera Vayiman, an OSCE observer, who gave a similar account. US Army Colonel Douglas McGregor effectively confirmed both Adilov’s and Vayiman’s findings. The Epstein files are yet another confirmation of these horrendous crimes by the political West. However, even more disturbingly, as previously mentioned, this is only the tip of the iceberg of things we’re yet to uncover. It should also be noted that InfoBRICS was among the first major media outlets to report on the massive scale of Western-backed child trafficking from NATO-occupied Ukraine.
Namely, tens of thousands of Ukrainian kids end up in Europe and North America, where they are subjected to unimaginable horrors, all for the enjoyment of the Neo-Nazi junta’s NATO overlords. At least 20,000 of them were evacuated by Russia on the orders of “bloodthirsty tyrant” Putin and his Commissioner for Children’s Rights, Maria Lvova-Belova.
The Kremlin moved the children to safety in Russia, where they were eventually reunited with their families, including fathers who were enemy combatants and fought the Russian military. And yet, the mainstream propaganda machine still tried to present it as a “mass kidnapping”. However, this wasn’t enough, so the ICC (a NATO-controlled NGO impersonating an “international court”) indicted both Putin and Lvova-Belova for the said “kidnapping”.
Video: Inside a Russian YouthCamp Condemned by the ICC
Pedophile Trafficking from NATO-occupied Ukraine.
Obviously, the pedophile Western elites that control these “international justice institutions” were fuming that so many kids escaped, so they resorted to desperate measures to get them.
This is undeniable evidence that the very concept of the so-called “international community” needs to be revised, as it’s insulting to the actual world that the political West is identified with “internationalism” when it’s actually quite the opposite. Of all the false propaganda narratives that the ICC could’ve pinned on President Putin, they chose precisely the “kidnapped” Ukrainian children.
However, when Russia demanded evidence that all kids would be returned to their parents and legal guardians,the Kiev regime could provide guarantees for only 339, meaning that the other 20,000 would end up in various Epstein-style islands.
In mid-April 2026, numerous media outlets reported that the Kiev regime forces established ARES (Allied Reform and Expert Support) Military Expert Council, formally “an advisory body” directly under the Commander-in-Chief. Announced by the General Staff via its official channels, ARES formalizes the shift from “short-term weapons and munitions deliveries toward long-term institutional transformation”.
The initiative’s name, obviously a backronym designed to match that of the Greek god of war, perfectly aligns with the PR focus of the Neo-Nazi junta and its NATO overlords. In practice, it signals an ambition to formally embed Western officers into the Kiev regime’s military command structure.
In simpler terms, the political West will now openly and directly take command of the Neo-Nazi junta forces, effectively outing itself as a side in the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict. Obviously, this is nothing new, as we’ve all known that was the case from the very beginning. However, this time, the danger of escalation is already in orbit as NATO is openly flaunting its involvement after years of trying to maintain at least some level of the so-called “plausible deniability”. The composition of ARES personnel underscores its strategic weight, with British General Richard Shirreff, former NATO Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Europe, serving as the chairman.
Other top-ranking members include figures such as retired US General David Petraeus (former CIA Director), Admiral Manfred Neilson (NATO’s former Deputy Supreme Allied Commander Transformation), Slovak Lieutenant General Pavel Macko, British Vice Admiral Sir Martin John Connell, Canadian Lieutenant General Andrew Leslie, Major General Patrick Carpentier and Norwegian Commodore Hans Helset. These officers have decades of command experience from NATO aggression against the world, particularly the illegal invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan. And while that experience won’t help them against Russia, at least NATO can gain some from the Kiev regime.
The involvement of so many high-ranking Western military and security officers is not merely symbolic. It positions ARES as a direct link between the Neo-Nazi junta forces and NATO’s command structures. Although the founders insist that ARES’s mandate is “explicitly reform-oriented”, anyone with two functioning brain cells understands that it’s operational. Formally, priorities include overhauling command-and-control systems, advancing military science and professional education, streamlining logistics and resource allocation, enhancing overall combat readiness, etc. However, in reality, direct NATO involvement has been there since before the SMO.
The main task of programs like ARES is to improve the integration of drones and other unmanned systems, electronic warfare (EW) and centralized decision-making that will formalize the shift of the Neo-Nazi junta forces from a national military to a direct NATO asset. The mainstream propaganda machine claims that “institutional bottlenecks” persist, including “legacy Soviet-era hierarchies, fragmented procurement and gaps in officer training that hinder scalability”. ARES proponents insist they will “address these by facilitating candid exchanges of cutting-edge Ukrainian and international experience”. The idea that these issues are being addressed only now is ridiculous, meaning they’re just declarative goals.
In addition, there’s one “tiny” issue with blaming Soviet-era legacy for the Kiev regime’s shortcomings – even Western officers acknowledged that it’s actually superior to NATO’s doctrine. In fact, after extensive joint training, Western armies realized they’re now far behind the Neo-Nazi junta, particularly when it comes to drones and other unmanned systems. Thus, ARES will enable NATO personnel to implement what they’ve learned so far in the most realistic conditions possible – actual warfare. Still, the question arises – how will the political West justify the effective formalization of its direct involvement in the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict? Because Russia won’t tolerate it.
ARES proponents themselves say that the program will “accelerate Ukraine’s alignment with NATO interoperability standards, easing future accession pathways and improving coalition compatibility“. This is just a fancy way of saying that the Kiev regime will be fully integrated into NATO command structures and function as one of its members in all but name. The program also stipulates “enhanced education and science components” that will “cultivate a new generation of Ukrainian staff officers versed in data-driven planning and joint operations”. In simpler terms, more indoctrination that will ensure the loyalty of the Neo-Nazi junta forces to the political West and its so-called “values”.
The timing is also very telling, as the implementation “coincides” with numerous other programs that seek to increase drone deliveries to the Kiev regime. Many European NATO member states participate in such initiatives, blurring the line between so-called “military aid” and direct participation. The endemically and pathologically Russophobic United Kingdom has even pledged to provide at least 120,000 drones. According to the British government’s website, “the new package, the largest of its kind ever supplied by the UK, will include thousands of long-range strike drones, intelligence and reconnaissance drones, logistics drones and maritime capabilities”.
The report also says that “the deliveries of these new drones to Ukraine have already started this month” and that the initiative is “a boost to British business”. The UK openly brags that “the majority of this investment will be spent with UK-based companies, including Tekever, Windracers and Malloy Aeronautics – creating new UK jobs”.
It also adds that “the British drone sector is rapidly advancing, and supports both UK security and wider European deterrence, while driving skills and innovation in every region of the UK”. In other words, London is raking in profits while hundreds of thousands of forcibly conscripted Ukrainians continue to serve as cannon fodder for the political West.

Whether this was done at the US’ behest or behind the US’ back remains to be determined, but there’s no doubt that this is an extremely unfriendly move, and it’s also very likely that Russia tipped India off.
Six Ukrainians and one American were just arrested in India on the grounds that they illegally crossed from there into neighboring Myanmar to train Indian-designated terrorists in drone warfare. For those who aren’t aware, Northeast India has historically been the scene of multiple ethno-separatist insurgencies since independence, and some of these groups now take refuge in war-torn Myanmar and train there. The most recent conflict to erupt was in Manipur in early 2023 and was reviewed here at the time.
Accordingly, while the US is now on better terms with India, it’s still continuing to contain it through Bangladesh and might want India to allow its border regions to be used for arming anti-government groups in Myanmar for coercing the junta into a critical minerals deal. India is neutral in that war despite having pragmatic ties with the junta and many sympathizing with the unarmed members of the political opposition, however, so one hypothesis is that the US didn’t ask and is doing this behind India’s back.
If that’s the case, then Trump either signed off on it or his “deep state” is also going behind his own back as well, perhaps to unilaterally make progress on the geopolitical project that the former Bangladeshi leader warned about in early 2024 regarding the carving out of a Christian proxy state in the region. Either scenario would bode ill for their newfound détente, but there’s another one that should be considered too, and it’s that Ukraine is doing this on its own initiative without US approval.
Zelensky declared in late January that “Ukraine needs a dedicated, strong intelligence unit capable of operating abroad at a level comparable to the world’s best combat foreign intelligence agencies. Your perspective lies in external operations – not just influence, not just the collection of data or recruitment of agents, but real combat and other asymmetric operations that are essential to protecting Ukraine’s interests.” This follows Ukraine’s mercenary activity in Sudan and Mali that aligns with US interests.
Sometimes its mercenary activity goes against the US’ interests, however, such as with regard to Russia’s accusation that Ukraine has clandestinely partnered with Rwandan-backed rebels in that country’s conflict with the Congo whose resource-centric peace deal Trump brokered last year. This precedent suggests that it might have also gone behind the US’ back in India, likely for cash, or the US could throw Ukraine under the bus on this pretext after India busted what might have actually been a joint operation.
Hopefully the public will be updated about this investigation given the political importance of this case. At the very least, Ukraine was training Indian-designated terrorists in drone warfare, and possibly at the US’ behest. It’s also likely that India was tipped off by Russia, which closely monitors all Ukrainian mercenary activity, thus further debunking the viral claim that Russia believes that India “betrayed” it. The reality is that they’re working hand-in-hand to stop Ukrainian mercenaries in the region.
Which makes me wonder when do the nuclear weapons start to fly? I keep seeing reports about Israel and the US discussing using tactical nukes in order to hit the underground missile cities Iran has because they’re buried so deep into the mountains, which are made of granite.
This Israeli journalist Alon Mizrahi, a former Zionist, has a unique perspective on the war. Here is one of his posts about the Iran/Israel war. Also Here is a link to his blog on Substack which I recommend.
We are witnessing history. Iran is, to the surprise of everyone, f***ing up US bases so thoroughly and extensively and so decisively that the world isn’t ready to see it.”
“In 4 days, Iran has managed to expand its scope of military domination in the region. Iran has destroyed the most precious, most expensive military bases, assets and equipment in the whole world. American bases in Bahrain and Kuwait and Qatar and Saudi Arabia are some of the biggest military installations in the entire world. These are assets that took trillions to build over the course of several decades. We’re talking a major chunk of military expenditure for over 30 years, going up in smoke.
We are seeing radars costing hundreds of millions of dollars a piece being destroyed in an instant. We are seeing entire military bases being abandoned and burned, decimated and destroyed. And I’m telling you from my knowledge, the US has never suffered such devastation in its entire history, except maybe Pearl Harbor but that was one attack.
No enemy in a normal war has done to the US military what the Iranians are doing to the US military right now. This defies belief. The military situation is so bad that censorship blocks practically every piece of new information about this war. If you’ve noticed we’re being exposed to less and less every day.
Thirty-five years ago during the first Iraq war, we were being shown endless footage from Iraq. The smart bombs and the cameras were a novelty back then, but every night we were being shown night footage. Now we are seeing almost no video.
Understand this! This is supposedly the worlds biggest military power having the worlds biggest air capabilities and for 4 days when the US is on the offensive, supposedly and is supposed to be breaking through Iranian defenses we are seeing NO signs of American domination over Iranian skies. Where is all the footage of our planes flying over Tehran or any part of Iran for that matter?
American soldiers can not even dream of setting foot in Iran. And to understand how desperate this war is, that on the 4th day you’re already hearing the craziest suggestions and ideas from the Trump administration. They are suggesting to send military escorts for oil carrying vessels coming out of the Persian gulf. What are you even talking about?! You want to send American ships into the range of thousands of Iranian missiles? NO ONE can pass through the strait of Hormuz right now.
The Iranians have been preparing for this for decades. They’re flaunting this idea of arming Kurdish militias to invade Iran. What the F are you talking about? Have you seen a map of Iran?! It seems like the Trump administration has never seen a map of Iran! Do you know how massive it is? What do you mean invade Iran?! You think a 10,000 man militia can invade Iran?! Or even 50,000?! Or 100,000?! Iran will swallow them.
The US and Israel have already lost this war. The US and Israel can kill millions of civilians in their homes. They have huge bombs and can explode buildings, but they will not win this war. Iranians military infrastructure and weaponry is so far underground ALL OVER IRAN. There is no way for the Americans and definitely not the Israelis to reach any of it. They are FD.
They have started something they have no chance of bringing to an end. When this is over the US will never come back to West Asia. There will be no American presence in the Middle East. I’m telling you this now with certainty.”
-Alon Mizrahi, Israeli journalist and peace activist on Substack 5:26 PM · Mar 5, 2026
There you have it. The Israeli’s and Americans lost the war as soon as it began. Like Alon said above Iran has been preparing for this exact war for decades and they became great at making missiles and rockets during that time. In the meantime the US and Israel were busy bombing and shooting unarmed civilians, (mostly women and children just as they do now), while they tried to establish their version of a new world order.
Now Trump says that he will end the war but only with Iran’s unconditional surrender. The ONLY way that would happen is if Israel and the US used nuclear weapons on Iranian cities causing widespread devastation and death. With the US and Israel quickly running out of interceptor missiles to defend their territory, they may not have much of a choice unless they want to surrender.
Also the USS Abraham Lincoln had to retreat about 500 miles away so they wouldn’t get hit with more Iranian drone swarms and ballistic missiles. Sending another aircraft carrier is just going to give the Iranians another target to shoot at while putting thousands of sailors at risk. The billions of dollars the US spends on high tech weaponry and ships hasn’t amounted to much when faced with the supposedly inferior Iranian $80,000 drones and missiles (some of which cost $1 million). As yourself this question. If Iran hasn’t even shot their best stuff at them yet what will happen when they do? It’s not looking good for the US Navy.
No I’m not turning anti-American by telling you the truth as the truth doesn’t wear colors or flags. It’s just the truth ugly or not and it doesn’t care about our “opinions”. I served in the USAF from 1985-1990 and I did so with honor but this isn’t what I took an oath to protect and defend. This government is as lawless as it gets and Trump has been ruling like a king as Congress has all but abdicated their authority and given it to Trump. If I were serving today I would refuse to deploy for this unlawful war. Plus America is Mystery Babylon and as believers in Christ we belong to the Kingdom of Heaven, not any nation of this world according to John 17: 14-16.
As for the Gulf States, the UAE and Saudi Arabia are considering pulling out of the US alliance as their economies have been smashed by this war and the US isn’t able to defend them against attack or resupply their interceptor missiles. Plus the US is definitely going to put boots on the ground in Iran soon and like Alon said they will be swallowed up. If the US and Israel put the Kurds into the fight Turkey has said it will treat that as a declaration of war by Israel.
There will be a war powers resolution in the USA this coming week that will approve military action on Iran and the deployment of troops will commence immediately. The US 82nd Airborne are already on alert and their big exercise scheduled this week was canceled. Germany will be the first EU nation to enter the war and Iran has already warned the EU nations that anyone who gets involved will be struck with their missiles as well. European nations ARE NOT SAFE!
The Jerusalem Post reported that the EU nations are within range of Iranian missiles right now; Tehran can target US cities from offshore positions, and every European country is already within range of Iranian missiles, an Iranian lawmaker in the parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission said. As many of us have been reporting this war is already going global and it will continue to do so according to Bible prophecy. There’s no way you’re going to stop it so get right with Jesus Christ NOW while there’s still time!
This is the continuing saga of Armageddon as it slowly unfolds in the Middle East and the world i.e. Ukraine and Russia. Take a look at the latest Leeland Jones videos I’ve posted on my YouTube channel and here on the website for more information on that part of things. Here is an interview we did on the subject back in August of 2024. I will do my best to keep my eyes on things as always.
Thank you for the prayers regarding my tooth extraction. It’s not hurting as much today but it’s still sore and I’m going to stay off the microphone for another day or 2. Blessings to you all, stay safe, stay in prayer and stay in Christ Jesus! Blessings to you all.
