Finally the corruption of Joe Biden gets media attention. What was first fully ignored, because of the necessity to oust President Trump, the laptop of his son Hunter Biden starts becoming interesting for a wider public. And, yes, even the i-word (impeachment) is ever more often heard.

Remember, Hunter Biden had left his laptop at a computer repair shop in Delaware. He forgot to pick it up and after some months it became legal property of the shop. The shop owner looked what was on the laptop and found incriminating e-mails. He handed the computer over to the FBI, who decided to ignore it, thinking it was part of a political game (NB: This all happened just before the 2020 presidential elections). The New York Post actually ran an article on it:
"Smoking-gun email reveals how Hunter Biden introduced Ukrainian businessman to VP dad" (New York Post)
All media ignored it. Some of it claiming it is a Russian psy-op. Twitter and some other social media actually ban it from their platform, which is one more case of blatant censuring.

And to show you what kind of person Hunter Biden is (a drug addict):

This new regime made it its plan to either expel the Russian population in teh eastern part of the country, or simply exterminate them. This is based on a Nazi philosophy that the Russians are Untermenschen. And Nazism is endemic in Ukrainian society:



While about half the population of Ukraine is of Russian ethnicity, especially the Donbass region (major cities Donetsk and Luhansk) was targeted. Watch this documentary of Anne-Laure Bonnel of 2016:


Even Israeli see the problem with these Ukro-nazis:
"The state-organized presence of neo-Nazis within the Ukrainian army is not anecdotal, even if it is not possible to quantify it in a certain way. On the other hand, it is easy to count their victims. In general indifference, they have killed 14,000 Ukrainians in eight years. This situation is one of the causes of the Russian military intervention in Ukraine." (click on image to read more at EuropeReloaded).

An example is the attack on Russian ethnics in Odessa in 2015:



The West does not care about any ideology. Nazi, schmazi! It simply wants to annex another state to its territory, NATO and teh EU have steadily been expanding eastwar since the fall of teh Berlin Wall. In a move justified for teh same reason -- what the Germans in WW-II called Lebensraum, simply new markets and resources -- possibly as part of teh same scheme of teh road to oil in teh Caucasus, Operation Barbarossa 2.0.

Russia saw its brother being genocided and had to do something. When President Zelenski of Ukraine asked for integration into NATO, something that Russia cannot ever tolerate strategically, it was the straw that broke the camel's back and Putin decided to give a last warning. Here is his television speech of 21 February 2022 (spoken in Dutch), one week before the start of teh special operation, in which he explains his motives.


German Scholtz made a final attempt to dissuade Zelenski from asking integration with NATO, to no avail.

So, in summary, some actually say that it is all the fault of the West for meddling in Ukrainian affairs and trying to ever expand eastward.


Fast-forward to today. Is Russia losing or winning? Here a very good report of Scott Ritter

Strange as it may appear, nothing interesting to show here. So, let us use this opportunity to present a colleague, probably the best society journalist that is out there. James Corbett. Just listen to what he has to say:
