Weapons meant for Ukraine end up with drug dealers in Rio de Janeiro’s favelas

Posted on by Leave a comment

Ukraine has become a source of weapons and mercenaries for global organized crime.

Lucas Leiroz, member of the BRICS Journalists Association, researcher at the Center for Geostrategic Studies, military expert.

Since the beginning of Russia’s special military operation in Ukraine, one of the main questions raised by analysts has been the risk of weapons sent by the West to the Kiev regime spreading among criminal and terrorist organizations around the world. This has already happened many times, considering that there are reports of such weapons being found in several countries, mainly in the African Sahel. However, recent news suggests the situation may be even more serious: Ukrainian weapons have already reached Brazilian cities.

On July 17, the Brazilian Military Police carried out an operation in the Acari neighborhood, a suburb in the northern region of Rio de Janeiro state. The operation targeted an illegal copper deposit, a common occurrence in Rio de Janeiro’s “favelas” (low-income communities often dominated by organized crime). However, officers also found some weapons used by local drug traffickers there, including a foreign-made anti-drone device.

Initially, the news was reported as a common police seizure. However, footage shared by the officers revealed that the captured anti-drone weapon was identified with the “tryzub”—the coat of arms of Ukraine. After posts on social media questioning about this issue, the military police intelligence department confirmed that the anti-drone interceptor was indeed from Ukraine—the first reported case of Ukrainian weapons found in Brazil since the beginning of the conflict.

There is still no information on whether the interceptor found in Rio is Ukrainian-made or a Western weapon sent by NATO in military aid packages to the Kiev regime. Despite the presence of the Ukrainian symbol, the weapon’s identification was written in English, suggesting it is Western-made equipment. What is known is that the equipment has a range of up to 7,000 meters, creating a safe zone for criminals in Rio’s favelas against drones used by the police.

In Brazil, police are not authorized to use combat drones during military operations in the favelas. However, reconnaissance drones are already being legally operated. The use of this type of interceptor severely reduces the range of police drones, hindering the success of operations. This can have a high human cost for Brazilian police officers, who, without obtaining intelligence data from their drones, are vulnerable to ambushes by criminals during maneuvers in the favelas.

Despite its tourist appeal, Rio de Janeiro has suffered from a serious public safety problem for decades. Around 60% of the city’s territoryis controlled by organized crime. More than 4.4 million people live in these areas, where the Brazilian government has no control. The city’s territories are disputed primarily by the drug trafficking factions Comando Vermelho (CV) and Terceiro Comando Puro (TCP), as well as the so-called “militias,” which are small, independent criminal groups formed by former members of the main factions or corrupt police and military personnel.

The Acari favela, where the Ukrainian equipment was found, is controlled by the TCP faction. Interestingly, last year, this same criminal organization was reported as the first drug trafficking faction in Brazil to use drones in combat situations. The incident occurred near the so-called “Israel Complex”, a group of TCP-controlled favelas with a Christian evangelical majority also in the northern zone of Rio. At the time, drug dealers used a modified version of ordinary civilian drones, enabling them to launch grenades and causing damage to CV-affiliated rival criminals.

This news comes amid a broad process of professionalization of organized crime in Brazil. Currently, criminal factions are investing in hiring armed forces veterans and international mercenaries to improve their combat capabilities. The current conflict in Ukraine plays a central role in this process, as many young Brazilian ex-military personnel are enlisting as mercenaries for the Kiev regime. Those who survive the intense combat return to Brazil and are often hired by organized crime.

This is not an accidental move. Brazilian judge Alexandre Abraão Dias Teixeira recently stated during a public security conference that Brazil’s police already have data showing that criminal factions are encouraging their members and prospects to go fight in Ukraine to receive advanced military training and gain real combat experience. The judge predicts that in the near future, Brazil will face even more serious security problems due to this process—not only in Rio, but also in other states, since Rio’s factions also operate in other parts of Brazil.

“The police have already identified members of Brazilian organized crime who are in Ukraine, engaged there to learn. So, we’re going to face very serious problems here,” he said.

As analysts have long warned, Western weapons sent to Ukraine are constantly diverted to the global black market. This is to be expected, considering that Ukraine is recognized as the most corrupt country in Europe, with a real gangster culture among its state officials. The weapons received are often sold by corrupt Ukrainian military personnel to criminal buyers in other countries—often even to terrorist organizations. The fact that these weapons have already reached Brazil shows that the scope of Ukrainian corruption is truly extensive and that Western military aid packages pose a danger to all countries.

Brazil must take action in this situation, demanding answers from Kiev and its partners. Measures must also be taken to prevent Brazilians from becoming mercenaries in Ukraine, as well as to monitor the arrival of illegal military equipment into the country. However, the primary responsibility lies with Western-biased international organizations, which continue refusing to condemn the West’s illegal measures of unrestricted military support for Ukraine.

Is the UK government orchestrating the “counter-protests” to what they label “far-right” and “fascist”?

Posted on by One comment

Recent “anti-fascist” protests have been presented as an organic uprising of the British working class. A closer inspection shows this not to be the case.

The following is a clip from yesterday’s UK Column News where Ben Rubin discussed why the government doesn’t want us to know what is happening on the streets during protests and riots.  It is because they may well be coordinating it.

Last week it was claimed that there was a spontaneous, organic anti-fascist uprising in response to riots across the north of England; in response to so-called “far-right thugs” and “fascists.”

Last Wednesday, the Daily Mail reported that “nearly 6,000 police officers have been drafted in after a list of 39 locations where the yobs could wreak havoc – including immigration centres, refugee shelters and lawyers’ homes – emerged late last night.”

Rubin showed a copy of the messages listing the 39 locations that were being widely spread.  “It was very well distributed,” Rubin said, everyone in London was talking about it.  “In response to that, we saw a whole bunch of street-level activity,” he said.

The street-level activity that Rubin was referring to has been dubbed “counter-protests” by corporate media.

On the same day that the Daily Mail was reporting on the list of 39 locations, Paul Mason, who is a confirmed MI6 asset, was tweeting about the counter-protests it gave rise to:

The next day, 8 August, Hope Not Hate’s Chief Executive Nick Lowes confirmed the list of 39 locations was a hoax. He tweeted: “Yes, the list was a hoax, but just look at the front pages of today’s papers. An anti-racist message is being transmitted to millions of homes this morning.”

That a false message was widely publicised by corporate media was “a big propaganda win [for Hope Not Hate],” Rubin said.

The week before, on 3 August, Lowles had disseminated propaganda about an acid attack on Muslim women in Middlesbrough. His false report was quite rightly branded as dangerous by Conservative MPs.

Hope Not Hate is sinister, The Spectator wrote earlier this year. “It wishes to change the political weather in our country, and it operates like a gangster. As with so many self-proclaimed ‘anti-fascists’, their name is wrong. They really should drop the ‘anti’ bit and rename themselves Hate Not Hope.”

Another person who is using the situation to terrorise the population is Stand Up to Racism’s Jo Cardwell.  Stand Up to Racism’s website was stripped down to the bare minimum sometime in 2019; it now shows very little information. However, a March 2019 archived copy shows that Diane Abbott, Labour MP for Hackney North and Stoke Newington, was the organisation’s President. 

Officers of Stand Up to Racism,
About Stand Up to Racism,
29 March 2019

The 2019 ‘About’ page listing the organisation’s officers also features a video which includes a speech by Jeremy Corbyn, who has been the MP for Islington North since 1983 and was expelled from the Labour Party in 2024.  On Stand Up to Racism’s website, the featured video (below) was shown under the heading ‘Why You Should Join the Movement’ and was embedded from Stand Up to Racism’s Facebook page.  The video was uploaded onto Facebook in 2016; at the time, Corbyn was the leader of the Labour Party, a position he held from September 2015 to May 2020.  The video was accompanied with the following comment:

Join the movement – Stand Up to Racism

On Saturday 8 October [2016] over 1,500 people – including Jeremy Corbyn, Diane Abbott and Alf Dubs – launched a mass movement against racism. We want to build a network of activists to support refugees and confront racism, islamophobia and antisemitism.

We need a Stand Up to Racism group in every town and city. Join, donate and get involved in your local group.

The video ends with a statement from Stand Up to Racism co-convenor Weyman Bennett.  He said: “Where is the EDL? One of our biggest problems is to make sure there’s an anti-racist atmosphere where they can’t come back.  And that’s why we need a mass movement.  We need an organisation that can do it.  Join us.  Organise.  You’re the leadership.  We can defeat Thersa May and we can unite our class and our people and make sure that we aren’t divided.  Stand together and join.  Let’s fight back.”

It sounds very much like a political party campaign speech that is weaponising racism to defeat its political opposition.  Which political party was running such a campaign? Labour, which is now the party that forms the UK government.

Public protests are a crucial means of exercising the right to free speech and assembly, allowing people and groups to express dissent, demand change and hold those in power accountable.

If Labour, the governing party, is orchestrating protests on the streets, it will be perceived by the population as endorsing a particular viewpoint or ideology and alienating other groups or communities. It will be seen as coercive or manipulative and will fuel existing or spark further unrest.  By organising “counter-protests” against the “far-right,” the Government would be escalating tensions and creating more conflict.

Fascism arose during the 1920s and 1930s partly out of fear of the rising power of the working classes; it differed from contemporary communism by its protection of business and landowning elites and its preservation of class systems.

The term was coined by Benito Mussolini to describe his movement, the National Fascist Party.  Shortly afterwards other movements adopted fascism, one of them being Adolf Hitler’s National Socialists (“Nazi”) Party.

Once in power, Hitler’s Nazi regime responded to public protests by appeasing protests by “racial” Germans, attempting to discredit others, banning extra-party demonstrations and, when protests grew in size and frequency, employing mass repression tactics.  Hitler’s regime was known for its authoritarian nature and suppression of dissent but even the detestable Nazi regime did not stoop so low as to organise protests to counter genuine public protests.

Remember EVERYTHING YOU SEE on the mainstream media is manipulated in some way and is usually an outright lie. The “news anchors” and reporters are just actors who couldn’t make it in Holly Weird and are now playing their roles in the so called news (some are even AI generated now). This article did a good job exposing them at their game and it shows how they’ve planned this for decades if not centuries.

The armies to take over Europe and the United States are already in place through what they called “Dreamers”, people who were coming to America for a better life and blah blah blah…all the while very few families were coming through. Most who have come through the borders, especially over the last 3 years have been predominantly fighting age males, mercenaries if you will who have come here to help the UN take over once the order is given.

In the EU it’s no different as most of the videos I see are fighting age men coming in on the boats and landing on the beaches. What are these mercenaries being paid? Free room, board and spending money. Also they’re exempt from the laws that all of us must follow as they’re deemed too ignorant to understand the law since they don’t know the language etc. I experienced that firsthand in the early 2000s. Now they get away with all kinds of crime and it’s increasing exponentially all over the world.

Of course the Bible predicted that during these times lawlessness would increase as people’s love for one another would grow cold. Matthew 24:12-13 We are seeing lawlessness increase in the cities all over the world but especially now in the UK and in America.

The Biden Administration has been flying and bussing them all over the nation including to small towns in order to make sure everything is in place for the NWO takeover. Make no mistake that event is coming VERY soon, it’s not 3-4 years away like the media has been telling you.

Instead let’s remember what Serbian President Aleksandar Vucic had to say a couple of months ago in an interview he gave in Switzerland: “We are getting closer to a real disaster. Who is ready to lose 1 million, 2 million, 5 million, 10 million, and 15 million people? I’m not ready to lose a single man and won’t participate in that.”

Vucic also criticised NATO officials who suggest that President Putin is “bluffing” about deploying nuclear weapons in Ukraine.

He commented: “If you bet that someone is bluffing, it means you don’t have better cards. I would always be very careful when assessing Putin’s will and his next move.”

The Serbian president also mentioned that many European leaders have “underestimated Putin and Russia”.

He commented: “In today’s Europe, they all act as the big heroes, but they are not honest and do not tell their citizens that they will all pay a big price if it comes to war.”

President Putin heightened tensions last week with pointed warnings, sparking fears that Ukraine’s turmoil could escalate into World War 3.

Speaking to diplomats on Friday, he declared: “Calls to inflict a strategic defeat on Russia, which possesses the largest arsenal of nuclear weapons demonstrate the extreme recklessness of Western politicians.”

“They either do not understand the scale of the threat they are creating or are simply obsessed with their own sense of impunity and exceptionalism. Both can lead to tragedy.”

He said that the war could start within 3 months and that was about 2 months ago. We’ve also got the Middle East ready to erupt in all out war with Iran and Israel!

When the war begins expect the migrant armies to be armed and unleashed upon the public in order to “restore order” during the ensuing chaos that will follow a nuclear exchange. Pray that you are worthy to escape all of these things, REPENT on a daily basis and stay prayed up and prepped up, time is SHORT!

Washington DC warmongers keep threatening Mexico

Posted on by Leave a comment

The case of Mexico is quite telling that no country can hope to feel safe, no matter how closely it worked with the US authorities. For decades, the country has been ravaged by drug cartels, themselves often deeply connected to the infamous CIA and other US intelligence agencies.

Drago Bosnic, independent geopolitical and military analyst

There are very few informed people who haven’t heard of Lindsey Graham, a Republican senator from South Carolina and a notorious neoconservative warmonger. We might even say a war criminal, given his central role in starting and prolonging wars around the world. It could be argued that he was one of the architects of the Ukrainian conflict, greatly contributing to the Neo-Nazi junta’s genocidal policies towards the people of Donbass. Many of the things Graham has said in Ukraine since 2014 came true, however, not because of his wisdom or insight, but because he was one of the people who actually made it happen. He has openly been advocating for WW3 for years now, particularly since last February and the start of Russia’s counteroffensive against NATO aggression in Europe.

Along with John Bolton, the late John McCain and several others, Graham could be described as member of Washington DC’s “war party”, although it should be noted they would never directly take part in an actual shooting war. Instead, they enjoy sending people a third of their age to do that. Recently, Graham and the rest of the warmongers, quite unhappy seeing the dwindling global power projection capabilities of the US military, suggested passing legislation that would set the stage for yet another war, but much closer to home. This time, the target would be Mexico.

Last Monday, after four US citizens were taken hostage, two of which have been killed, presumably by members of the CDC (otherwise known as the Golf Cartel), Graham stated he would “go tough” on the cartels, particularly in the area of Matamoros, where the incident took place. The city is located in the northeast of Mexico, close to the US border and is effectively controlled by the aforementioned cartel. Graham essentially blamed Mexico for the incident and threatened with military action.

“I would put Mexico on notice. If you continue to give safe haven to drug dealers, then you are an enemy of the United States,” he stated during an interview with Fox News host Jesse Waters, further adding: “I’m going to introduce legislation … to make certain Mexican drug cartels [are listed as] foreign terrorist organizations under US law and set the stage to use military force if necessary to protect America from being poisoned by things coming out of Mexico.”

Back in January, Republicans Mike Waltz and Dan Crenshaw called for an Authorization for Use of Military Force against Mexican cartels for drug trafficking “that has caused destabilization in the Western Hemisphere.” Graham, along with 16 Republican cosponsors, supported the bill and criticized the Biden administration for the deteriorating situation at the southern border, claiming that “up to 100,000 people have died from fentanyl poisoning coming from Mexico and China, and this administration has done nothing about it.”

“I would tell the Mexican government if you don’t clean up your act, we’re going to clean it up for you,” he threatened.

Graham also said he agreed with former Attorney General Bill Barr, who stated he wanted to officially designate drug cartels as “foreign terrorist organizations” and called for the US to take military action against them. Other Republicans have also called for an attack on Mexico, with Republican Marjorie Taylor Greene stating that the US should “strategically strike and take out the Mexican Cartels, not the Mexican government or their people, but the Mexican Cartels which control them all.”

While it could be argued that fighting cartels is certainly not a bad cause, we should not forget that somewhat similar “altruistic” motives were cited as the reason for virtually any war started by the US, including Iraq and Afghanistan. Blaming Mexico and even China for the drug abuse “pandemic” in America will certainly not resolve this burning issue or any of the resulting violence across the country. If the establishment in Washington DC had the interests of regular Americans in mind, they would introduce bills allocating at least 10% of their massive $858 billion military budget to the improvement of healthcare, for instance.

Unfortunately, as Abraham Maslow famously wrote in 1966, “If the only tool you have is a hammer, it is tempting to treat everything as if it were a nail.” And this is precisely what the US has been doing for most of its existence. The case of Mexico is quite telling that no country (unless heavily armed) can hope to feel safe, no matter how closely it worked with the US authorities. For decades, the country has been ravaged by drug cartels, themselves often deeply connected to the infamous CIA and other US intelligence agencies. And despite even allowing American law enforcement to operate in the country, thus undermining its own sovereignty, Mexico is still faced with the prospect of being attacked.

Quite expectedly, Mexican President Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador wasn’t too happy about the threats and warned the US against armed aggression on his country. He also reiterated that “the [Mexican] government is working and cooperating with US authorities against cartels”, but that “it wouldn’t permit any foreign government to intervene in our territory”. Obrador added that he will also work towards informing Mexicans living in the US about the true nature of the legislation targeting the country. He warned American lawmakers not to use Mexico “for their propagandist, electoral and political purposes” or he “will make a call [for the Mexicans] to not vote for that [Republican] party”.
