Ania and Yours Truly.

Live in 30 minutes. I don't know why UTube doesn't allow pasting embedded video, but here is the link. 

Nima, Ania ...

 ... live at 11:00 PDT. 

After that, at noon PDT. Ania, Larry and me. 

Ania Made It to The US.

On a book tour. 

Ania And Yours Truly.

Live in 30 minutes. 

Ania and Me.

Live, now. 

 

Ania And Yours Truly.

 Live. 

 

Ania--Concise And To The Point...

 ... speaks what everyone who matter understand. 

"BRICS SUMMIT, NOT US ELECTIONS WILL DETERMINE COURSE OF HISTORY"

Ania And Me...

 ... live. 

 

Ania And Me...

 ... live. 

 

Here Is Ania, Scott And Larry...

 ... discuss the events of the last week. 

Read also in comments to this video at Larry's that Scott's daughter--I assume it is Patty, a beautiful and classy young lady--will not be able to join US Foreign Service because she was blacklisted by Georgetown University and will not be able to obtain Top Secret clearance. What a clusterfuck America has become. Sad.

Man! What A Day.

First, Nima and Jacques Baud.  

And then with incomparable Ray!

Man! Now he has me planned for Thursday. On Friday, tentatively Vera will have Larry Wilkerson, with me as participant and, finally, somebody else translating. I hope to get together with Ania soon too. Tomorrow I have RTVi. Quickening, boys and girls, buckle up.

Ania And Larry In Moscow...

 ... today))

Ania, Larry and I...

 ... round table today. 

 

Peskov's Statement...

 ... is not about 404. It is about sheer incompetence of the American military-political establishment. 

Песков напомнил, что киевский режим обещал американцам за $100 млрд «победу на поле боя», а теперь они понимают, что их обманули — никакой победы на поле боя нет. Более того, украинские вооруженные силы стремительно и неизбежно теряют позиции.

Translation: Peskov reminded that the Kiev regime promised the Americans “victory on the battlefield” for $100 billion, and now they understand that they were deceived - there is no victory on the battlefield. Moreover, the Ukrainian armed forces are rapidly and inevitably losing ground.

Only morons could believe in and plan this crap. I am on record ad nauseam--US military experience is simply inapplicable for something like SMO. American "strategists" cannot wrap their minds around the complexity, intensity and attrition rates in such combat operations. The clock-work is broken, it always was. And now, when the reality cannot be hidden anymore, someone will have to answer for those millions KIAs and maimed in 404 and war crimes committed by both VSU and their Western enablers, including Western media. 

Meanwhile in Poland. 

Yep, they learned absolutely nothing.

It Was A Very Intense Day...

 ... to put it politely. First Nima and Dmitry Orlov talked. So unusual to see Dmitry without his signature beard. 

Then this was Ania, Scott and my turn.  

How to put it mildly;))

Yep, that's about right.

Ania, Larry And Me.

Enjoy:

 

 

Ania, Scott And Me...

Roundtable:

Enjoy. 

Lovely Ania...

 ... gives updates from Tzvetnoi (Colorful) Boulevard and Moscow-city. 

As you can see yourself, Russians are simply stoically suffering from West's sanctions... not. Any argument about being in Moscow is invalid, because the same "suffering" happens all over Russia from Vladivostok to Novosibirsk, to Kazan and Kaliningrad. 

And here is an interesting snippet: 

The vast majority of Austrian companies present in Russia continue to operate even in the face of Western sanctions, the Russian ambassador to Vienna, Dmitry Lyubinsky, stated on Friday. Most of the 650 Austrian firms working in the Russian market have stayed, the diplomat said in an interview with RIA Novosti.Lyubinsky noted that entrepreneurs in both countries “are showing great interest in the continuation of mutually beneficial cooperation.” He added that despite facing “unprecedented pressure,” only a “handful” of Austrian companies have opted to leave Russia. The envoy pointed at numbers which indicate that Russia remained among Austria’s top ten trade partners in 2022. It also ranked sixth in terms of export volumes “despite the desire of the Austrian authorities to freeze everything connected with Russia,” Lyubinsky stated.    

Well, Russian internal market is huge and despite sanctions and natural for any developed nation islands of low income and social problems, Russians largely remain solvent and continue to buy stuff ranging from food to consumer goods. 

Meanwhile, rescue continues in Turkey and Syria, and some small miracles still happen like with this Turkish girl 4 days after quake. 

Here is one of the most regal women in the world, Asma Assad and her husband, the President of Syria Bashar al-Assad, with victims of the earthquake in Syria.

  

The President. 

This all is not for photo-ops. Is this what it takes--a tragedy--for good people around the world to remember who we are? My heart goes out to people of Turkiye and Syria.

Me And Ania...

 ... conversing yesterday. 

Enjoy, if you will...
 

Ania Reporting From Moscow.

Lovely Ania is in Russia, if someone didn't know that. Watch all her reports from there. I will dedicate more to courageous women of real journalism (Eva Bartlett is the prime example) more soon. But here is Ania today. 

Enjoy winter Moscow, while we here in the Pacific Northwest "enjoy" our Winter storm.
