Going by what British foreign secretary Liz Truss is putting out on a US advertising company’s website, it seems that someone may have done a Douma in Mariupol.

Reports that Russian forces may have used chemical agents in an attack on the people of Mariupol. We are working urgently with partners to verify details.

“Reports that”, eh? Doesn’t she know whether she’s a government minister or a journalist? Or do they all get their words written for them by the same outfits nowadays? Why not go the whole hog and say “I’m hearing that…”?

And “partners”? Would they be the same ones who “qualify” horrific jihadist-themed videos? Hasn’t Britain got an intelligence service?

Hadn’t read this when I posted – glad to see others have their eyes wide open. Moscow has nearly achieved everything it needs in Ukraine. It’s not using chemical weapons there, not even against the hardcore Nazi battalions in Azov.

Amazing really, especially considering all the “reports that” Russia is struggling badly and on the verge of complete defeat followed by Putin’s being kicked out and taken to the court at The Hague!

Verifying details? Why the uncertainty? I thought US and British intelligence was sooooo good about Russian military action (except of course the actual invasion – didn’t see that coming) that they knew before the Russians what they were going to do next, and know every thought that Putin has even before he thinks it.

If you’d have told me a couple of years ago that in the near future I’d be rooting for a Le Pen victory, I’d have said you were stark raving mad.

Macron is quite a guy. This clip is circulating of him saying he has done everything, constantly, in the name of France, “to avoid peace” between the Ukraine and Russia. That was presumably a slip, “Freudian” or otherwise, but look at his eyes when he says it. Goodness knows what will happen in the next 13 days, but he’s not going to leave quietly.

The following image of him surely wasn’t greenlighted without a consideration of what’s written in the Koran about the Dajjal (Antichrist):

If they didn’t want that effect with the eye they would have file-drawered this shot and done another take.

Meanwhile, Chechen forces are participating in the attack on Mariupol…

The siege of Mariuop is virtually over. The Russians have revealed a massive underground Command Centre and a maze of concrete tunnels and the Headquarters of “Nazionalistichen” Ukraine Militias – defended to the last hour – under a Steel Works which has been the centre of the fighting.

The Russians plan the demolition of the whole complex they claim was funded by Nato. Survivors have been offered terms of surrender.

I have a feeling the election will be totally rigged anyway, like the US one in 2020 and Canada’s too. The regime isn’t playing games anymore.

You couldn’t make it up. In any normal setting it would be obvious that the narcissists in this picture are in the foreground. But oh no, the self-obsessed Young can do far better. He’ll insert himself into the frame in order to command your focus.

Would ‘Wow’ be sufficient?

I suppose it illustrates too how easily pictures can be photoshopped to manipulate people’s thoughts? I’m in two minds about whether that’s really a good idea, without an acknowledgement, on a site that apparently considers itself a purveyor of truth…

I doubt it though. Where would some of us be without this site? And he does seem genuinely committed to free speech (and with good reason).
As long as he allows us to air any opinion here (within reason and unlike many sites), and moreover go after anyone who tries to stop him, that’s good enough for me.

The gene therapy mandates are most egregious crimes against humanity since the Nazis’ Operation Reinhard in which they developed plans to murder millions of Jews and other groups. Now the evidence is slowly surfacing, the regime that perpetrated this crime needs the mother of all distractions. It also needs something to blame its massive, policy-induced inflation on. It needs something big, now.

Think Douma, but in Mariupol.

As the massive extent of the harm caused by the vaccines (that were never meant to be vaccines) becomes undeniable, the only distraction big enough will be WW3. Another glaringly obvious fake chemical false flag will be laughed at by anyone with a still functioning brain. By definition that obviously includes Vladimir Putin, so another Douma won’t stop Russia doing what it has it to do.

Yes, someone said this the other day. I don’t see that it matters much, anyone with a street atlas and some common sense (not a given these days admittedly) should be able to find it.
Perhaps he/she confounded it with Longshot Lane (just taking a punt…).

Yes, have the yellow board thing down at our local tip (in Longshot Lane)! Not sure I would particularly want to stand at that particular spot on the busy Bagshot Road roundabout for very long, must be the worst place in town for diesel fumes – it is effectively the M4/M3 link road since they refuse to build a proper one.

More evidence that there is no ‘pandemic’. You’d think Boris would have been more cautious, what with him having contracted ‘Covid’ and nearly dying in intensive care… he must have just forgotten how serious it is.
Unless that was just another Boris lie.
