Grotesque Lies.

Sometimes it is simply impossible to even comment. Baltic statelets want NATO navies to be sunk in Baltic Sea. 

How Much One Has To Hate ...

 ... Russian guts as to go to 404 at the age of 72 to fight for Kiev regime. I'll give you a hint--by the age of 50 most combat qualities which one may have dissipate almost completely. But, not for this guy:

Госдепартамент США признал Стивена Хаббарда неправомерно задержанным в России, сообщили в ведомстве Русской службе «Голоса Америки». В октябре 2024 года гражданина США приговорили в России к почти семи годам тюрьмы, признав его виновным в участии в войне на стороне Украины. 

«Россия должна немедленно освободить Стивена Хаббарда. Было установлено, что Хаббард был задержан неправомерно – его не должны были брать в плен или отправлять в тюрьму в России», – сообщили Русской службе «Голоса Америки» в Госдепартаменте. Там добавили, что «Соединенные Штаты будут продолжать работать над освобождением Хаббарда и всех других американцев, несправедливо задержанных в России». 7 октября Московский городской суд приговорил 72-летнего американца Стивена Хаббарда к шести годам и 10 месяцам колонии общего режима, признав его виновным в участии в боевых действиях на стороне Украины в качестве наемника. По данным российского следствия, ему якобы платили 1000 долларов в месяц за службу в украинском подразделении территориальной обороны в городе Изюм, где он жил с 2014 года. Согласно материалам дела, он заключил контракт с Вооруженными силами Украины (ВСУ) в феврале 2022 года, а спустя два месяца, когда российские войска вошли в Изюм, Хаббарда задержали. По данным российских СМИ, Хаббард признал свою вину.

Translation: The US State Department has found Stephen Hubbard wrongfully detained in Russia, the department told the Voice of America Russian Service. In October 2024, the US citizen was sentenced in Russia to nearly seven years in prison, having been found guilty of participating in the war on the side of Ukraine. “Russia must immediately release Stephen Hubbard. It has been determined that Hubbard was wrongfully detained – he should never have been captured or imprisoned in Russia,” the State Department told the Voice of America Russian Service. They added that “the United States will continue to work to free Hubbard and all other Americans unjustly detained in Russia.” On October 7, the Moscow City Court sentenced 72-year-old American Stephen Hubbard to six years and 10 months in a general regime penal colony, finding him guilty of participating in hostilities on the side of Ukraine as a mercenary. According to Russian investigators, he was allegedly paid $1,000 a month to serve in a Ukrainian territorial defense unit in the city of Izyum, where he had lived since 2014. According to the case file, he signed a contract with the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) in February 2022, and two months later, when Russian troops entered Izyum, Hubbard was detained. According to Russian media, Hubbard admitted his guilt.

It would be a good start for the Department of State to learn about the status of mercenaries and be thankful to Russians who exhibited a great deal of humanity by not shooting the guy on the spot and giving him a proper trial. Eventually, the court may consider the guy's good behavior in penal colony, his age and him being a retard and will release him earlier. But there are others who already were and will be "taken care of" together with their Nazi "brethren" at the frontlines. Yes, Russia is no Africa or Iraq where many Western mercenaries got used to fighting grossly inferior opponents, in SMO roles are completely reversed because the real war is not some Baghdad police operation.

Except, Kallas ...

 ... lived a life of privilege in USSR being a daughter of party nomenclature. The "trauma" was so huge that these three Baltic statelets are on the way out as ethnicities and countries, dying out due to all "freedoms" and "privileges" they got from EU and NATO for 30+ years. The only product they produce is rabid Russophobia which sells in Europe. That, plus whores for NATO contingents stationed on their soil. 

Doug uses now the 1.2 million number of KIAs in VSU. Sounds about right. Here is the demonstration what most of the fighting at the line of contact is reduced to in 404. Here is relatively recent from Velikaya Novoselka. A bunch of VSU creeps refuse to surrender (highly likely Nazi fanatics who know what is expecting them), they barricade themselves in the basement of the building. So, the guys from one of the storm companies of the 5th Independent Brigade deliver some presents (3 AT mines). The mop up continues. 

And this is what this is all about--harm Russia, kill them. The hatred, the fear and military impotence of Washington and European capitals on parade. NATO is good only at fighting civilians and committing atrocities, not at facing real armies. 

Open Thread.

 Go at it. 

So, She Is a "Hero" Now?

So, her "legacy" and "inspiration"--let's fly into the path of a landing plane and kill 64 innocent people. 

People in comments are outraged, but then again--these are US media, there is no crime or atrocity they will not support as long as it fits the "agenda". Sappy sentimental BS, whitewashing an incompetent hack, an obvious DEI "inspiration" who, as people correctly state, will be remembered. Oh boy, she will be. Disgusting ... 

Why So Much "Paper" Activity ...

... around Anti-missile Defense. Explanation is simple--to cover up a military-technological catastrophe for the US in advanced missile technologies (both AD and strike variety). This gap cannot be closed, especially with the US lagging badly in a hypersonic field. Atlantic Council "report" (do US generals even understand how they embarrass themselves?) is a laughable pseudo-scientific "policy" paper which high school students could write given the time and effort. Judging by their references who teach in Naval Post-Graduate School (same as such "strategists" and "historians" as Sarah Paine from USNWC)--no surprise that America's views on war are so amateurish. Czech MP wants to genocide Russians--totally expected. 

A Good Summary.

Text says: "now, let's declare a tie and start negotiations". 

They really think in Washington that they are so impressive and shiny. Evidently, situational awareness is not Washington's strong forte. I also talk today in my latest video about horrendous (for Washington) balance of power shift, to such a degree that no number of narratives passing for policy papers from all corners of the Washington think-tankdom universe can cover it up. It is not even fair technologically.
