The World Was Warned
Putin's speech at the 43rd Munich Security Conference in 2007, plus the best articles, interviews, vloggers and war analysis this week.
A WARNING FROM 17 YEARS AGO
QUOTE OF THE WEEK
After Russia Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s recent speech to the United Nations, Rossiya 1 TV channel asked him:
"We heard the representatives of the United Kingdom and the United States respond to your words. It feels like they don't listen, don't hear, and don't want to hear what you say. Does it make sense to communicate with them in this format?”
Lavrov:
“They hear everything, but they are overwhelmed by their greatness, their permissiveness and infallibility complex.”

SHORT DOCUMENTARY
Note: 1. I’m still on hiatus from writing articles but hope sharing counts. 2. I’m rarely logged in but be mindful that Substack has stopped sending me notifications, and I cannot send Chat messages. Their A.I. has hopefully referred me to Human Support. 3. On the weekend, I’m going to share music with you as lozenge for eternal war. 4. I have scheduled a weekly post for the rest of the year on my non-political Wicked Ghosts substack.
That makes a lot of sense, it’s quite sad but it makes sense. There are some dark dealings going on over there. Most would probably be pretty shocked to find out what kind of things the United States is doing in other countries. It took me doing my own investigation into Ukraine via threads and threads and threads to see it for some reason, even after wuhan which could be there way of telling us that it’s taking place then having the fact checkers and media deny it so we are walking in circles and they are free to continue because we never stand up!! I know this government is compromised but I had never really thought about things from that perspective until Ukraine for some reason. It left me with a lot of questions unfortunately, questions that common sense should be answering, but it’s hard to understand how human beings can consciously cross some of the lines being crossed, like there are no lines “ much like our border “ it’s sickening!!! The more you dig the worse it gets!!!!
Wow, he said it plain as day, which gives even more relevance to the suggestions that he is in Ukraine for good reason. People should question what is taking place in any country the united states is “ liberating “, it’s the perfect reason for ultimatums to be given especially with immoral things like gain of function research. Look into Ukraine’s surrogate mother program, it’s bad, it not only should be stopped but it should absolutely be destroyed. The level of deception being used is almost beyond explanation at least in the English language which is the only one I know. Language its self is being used as a tool of deception. They have to abide by our free will, but they are working around it in such a clever way. He was a liar from the beginning the truth is not in him is the 100% bottom line truth. It’s a disease worse than any other. The true weight of sin outweighs the entire world.
