Polish President Andrzej Duda is taking a harsher stance on aiding Ukraine ahead of the October election. A Reuters poll noted that 91% of the population supported the war when it began, but that figure has dwindled to 69% and continues to decrease. Over 25% of Poles are against accepting Ukrainian refugees as well. Poland, Hungary, and Slovakia broke away from the EU ruling to lift the ban on Ukrainian grain, leading to heightened tensions. “We no longer transfer weapons to Ukraine because we are now arming Poland,” Polish Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki announced on social media.

This began when Zelensky responded to the grain ban at the UN meeting. The ungrateful leader publicly embarrassed his allies by saying they had only pretended to care about Zelensky despite all the aid provided. “Some in Europe, some of our friends in Europe, play out solidarity in a political theater – making a thriller from the grain.” Zelensky even accused these nations of setting the stage to help Moscow.

The message offended Poland who has been supporting Ukraine from day one. Polish Foreign Minister Pawel Jablonski stated “putting pressure on Poland in multilateral forums or sending complaints to international tribunals are not appropriate methods of resolving disputes between our countries.” Zelensky believes he can storm on any stage and make demands. In this instance, he overstepped his boundaries and someone finally defied his incessant demands.

President Duda now sees the truth – Ukraine is dragging down the entire world. “Ukraine is behaving like a drowning person clinging to anything available,” Duda told the press. “A drowning person is extremely dangerous, capable of pulling you down to the depths…simply drown the rescuer.” This is an excellent analogy to describe Zelensky as he is hellbent on dragging the entire Western world down with him. We need more leaders to step away from this madness instead of pandering to Zelensky’s tantrums.

Justin Trudeau and Ukraine President Zelenskyy Honor Nazi Veteran During Canadian Parliament Session


Posted originally on the CTH on September 24, 2023 | Sundance

 

Oh dear, this is not good.  Yaroslav Hunka, a 98-year-old immigrant from Ukraine, was introduced by Anthony Rota, Speaker of the Canadian House of Commons, as “a Ukrainian-Canadian war veteran from the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians” and “a Ukrainian hero and a Canadian hero,” ignoring the horrific fact that Hunka served in the 14th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS, a Nazi military unit whose crimes against humanity during the Holocaust are well-documented.

OTTAWA, Ont. — A ranking Canadian parliamentarian is apologizing to Jewish communities around the world for a blunder during Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s visit that led to lawmakers honoring a veteran accused of belonging to a Nazi division in WWII.

It followed demands by Canadian Jewish organizations Sunday for an apology after it was revealed members of Parliament across party lines awarded a 98-year-old veteran on Friday with a standing ovation shortly after Zelenskyy addressed Canada’s House of Commons.

Yaroslav Hunka stood and appeared to salute from the public gallery when he was recognized by House Speaker Anthony Rota, who introduced Hunka as a Canadian-Ukrainian war hero from his political district.

“We have here in the chamber today a Ukrainian-Canadian veteran from the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians and continues to support the troops today, even at his age of 98,” Rota said Friday, followed by a lengthy round of applause and a wave by Zelenskyy. “He’s a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service. Thank you.”  (read more)

Canadians Pay Standing Ovation To ACTUAL WWII NAZI

General Mark Milley – A Threat to the Nation?


Armstrong Economics Blog/Politics Re-Posted Sep 24, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Outgoing Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Mark Milley is a Neocon. He has taken every possible action against Donald Trump because Trump was against war. Hia latest venture to support the neocons is to imply that Trump is a threat to nuclear war. He said that while the president has the authority to decide to launch a nuclear weapon, he does not “launch them alone” while discussing former President Trump in a recent interview.

“The president alone decides to launch nuclear weapons, but he doesn’t launch them alone,” Milley told The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg when asked about Trump’s mental and moral qualifications to launch nuclear weapons. As I said, I went to dinner in March of 2020 at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. It was the first time any head of state ever impressed me. He said he wanted to bring the troops home from Afghanistan because he was sick over writing letters to the families of soldiers who died there. He asked why we were there. They have been fighting over borders for 1,000 years. What difference are we going to make? Then, when Iran shot down a drone, John Bolton wanted to attack Iran. Trump refused.

Trump was removed just like JFK because he was anti-war. And Milley pretended he defended the Constitution? We have severe problems. Electing new people to Congress presents a problem. They are NEVER privy to the inner workings of the Hill. They are fed the BS mixed in the Deep State cauldrons and are never allowed to know the truth. NOTHING can take place on the floor. EVERYTHING functions only through committees. If you do not play ball, you will never get to a committee to do anything. The entire system is rigged from the inside out.

Biden is by no means mentally qualified to deal with nuclear war. He does whatever he is told, which is what the Neocons want.

PS: I guess we need to add The Atlantic to the list of dangerous Fakes News organization.

Russell Brand Issues Statement After British Govt Target Him for Removal from Social Media Platforms


Posted originally on the CTH on September 22, 2023 | Sundance 

The Sunday Times, a Rupert Murdoch publication in the U.K, published a hit piece against Russell Brand accusing him of rape and sexual assault 20-years ago.  It did not take long before the accusations triggered the cancel culture and YouTube demonetized the actor and pundit.  Russell Brand has vehemently denied the allegations.

However, in a remarkable escalation the U.K Parliament is now targeting Russell Brand.  The British government has sent a letter to U.S. social media companies, including video platform provider Rumble demanding they take action against Brand.  Not only is the British government targeting an individual and demanding action over an unproven allegation, but they are also sending a letter to the U.S. company demanding acquiescence to their censorship demand.

Standing solidly on the side of freedom, Rumble said no. However, now Rumble is the subject of a global smear campaign using a variety of media outlets and constructed controversies.  Today, Russell Brand responded to the overall effort by the British government. {Direct Rumble Link}  WATCH

“Nuts!”

Pix System in Brazil


Armstrong Economics Blog/International News Re-Posted Sep 21, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

You likely have not heard of the Pix system unless you live in Brazil. Pix is an “instant payment ecosystem” launched on November 16, 2020, by Brazil’s central bank (BCB). Pix primarily works through the use of QR codes that users use to access their digital accounts for payments. The pandemic helped push people to digitalized banking, and now the system has surpassed the use of credit and debit cards.

About 30% of all transactions in 2022 happened on the Pix system, compared to only 20% via credit cards and 19% on debit cards. Three billion monthly transactions take place through Pix and that figure continues to grow. “The adoption of Pix in society has been very intense,” commented Carlos Eduardo Brandt, head of Pix Operations at the Central Bank of Brazil. Two-thirds of the entire population of Brazil now uses Pix as it has become ingrained in everyday life. Cash transactions are in decline, dropping by a quarter since 2020. However, Brazilians once preferred cash and those in rural areas accepted their wages in the Real.

The International Monetary Fund is pleased with the success of Pix and has been studying its success. The IMF published a study this July entitled, “Pix: Brazil’s Successful Instant Payment System.” “The authorities are now able to track monthly payment and related economic activity on a granular basis by geographical location, types of transactions, and borrowers, including by age group,” the study notes. The IMF says that mandatory participation by the big banks was one of the contributing factors to Pix’s adaptation.

Every central bank is developing its own CBDC. The goal of the globalists is to combine these digital currencies into one centralized database. Although Pix is not a CBDC, it has served the purpose of acclimating the banks, merchants, and users to the idea of a cashless society.

British Parliament Demands Rumble Video Platform Remove or Demonetize Russell Brand – Rumble Says NO!


Posted originally on the CTH on September 20, 2023 | Sundance 

This is quite a remarkable development.  The Sunday Times, a Rupert Murdoch publication in the U.K, published a hit piece against Russell Brand accusing him of rape and sexual assault 20-years ago.  It did not take long before the accusations triggered the cancel culture and YouTube demonetized the actor and pundit.  Russell Brand has vehemently denied the allegations.

Rumble has previously stood strong against the demands of the French government, and once again stands at the forefront of freedom in responding to the UK demand.

Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski responded to the U.K govt and shared his response on Twitter.  “We emphatically reject the UK Parliament’s demands.”

In an era where social media are more than willing to crawl into bed with the censorship demands of government, looking at you Elon, it is refreshing to see a platform refuse to be pushed into a position of censorship.

Well done Team Rumble.

Now let’s ask why billionaire media mogul Rupert Murdoch is targeting opinions that might run against the official government narratives?   I seem to remember someone warning about an increased effort to remove specific entities and platforms that will not adhere to official government positions.  

The Gates of Hell


Armstrong Economics Blog/WEF Re-Posted Sep 20, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

I think Bill Gates will go down in history as in the list of the top 5 demons who have waged war against humanity. He represents what some call the Gates of Hell. Nobody will stop this guy; he is out to reduce the world’s population, no different than Hitler or Stalin. Nothing this guy does shows he cares about humanity. The Telegraph reported back in September 2018:

“The billionaire philanthropist Bill Gates has delivered a stark warning on population growth in Africa, saying if left unchecked, it could unravel decades of progress and fuel instability across the globe.”

Gates pretends to care about society with his FORCE vaccines. Yet this is contrary to all his efforts that claim we are doomed unless we REDUCE population as his father did with abortions and Planned Parenthood.

They were very clever in telling women it was their RIGHT to kill their children. Ruth Bader Ginsburg made it clear when she got to the Supreme Court it had NOTHING to do with women’s rights — it was all about reducing the population, especially among minorities, not much different than Hitler with his Aryan Race. Just last year, Gates launched a program for condoms in Africa. Even back in 2013, GATES SWORE HE WOULD REINVENT THE CONDOM.

Why would ANYONE believe Gates on anything? These vaccines are NOT intended to help society. Klaus Schwab also makes the short-list of the greatest threat to humanity. His World Economic Forum joined Bill Gates-controlled GAVI to promote using biometric tracking technology to force-vaccinate African children to take Gates’ malaria vaccine that does not even work. This vaccine produced deadly meningitis in at least one out of a hundred children receiving four doses.

NOBODY will stop the WEF or Bill Gates because our career politicians sanction whatever they want to do if perhaps the bribes are big enough.

Ukrainian Spy Chief Asks West to Empty Warehouses of Military Supplies


Armstrong Economics Blog/War Re-Posted Sep 20, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

The West has provided Ukraine with EVERYTHING, from weapons, training, and money to removing their opponent from the SWIFT system and irreparably harming their relationship with Russia. The blank checks to Ukraine are real, as we have come to learn as week after week, politicians travel to Kyiv to offer more and more. Major General Kyrylo Budanov of Ukraine knows that there would be no war without Western aid, and said that he knows Western nations can provide more since “warehouses in Western countries are not completely empty.”

According to Joe Biden, the US is low on ammunition but there are always supplies and fund for Ukraine.  Budanov said that Ukraine’s current arsenal could be depleted by 2023, or in three years. “We are dependent on external players,” he admitted. “Russia is mostly dependent on itself.” That is because the West is using Ukraine as cannon fodder as the war was planned many years ago. Everything had to fall into place from installing Zelensky to using the fake Minsk Agreement to buy time to build up Ukraine’s military.

Zelensky plans to travel to New York to ask the United Nations General Assembly for MORE. How are the people not concerned with this guy showing up to every major event and begging for funding from countries that are on an economic decline? Ukraine will never stop asking for money and the West will never stop providing it to them.

Hence, NATO Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg is already preparing the public for a “long war.” “Most wars last longer than expected when they first begin,” Stoltenberg told Funke media. “Therefore we must prepare ourselves for a long war in Ukraine.” He spreads the lie that Russia wants to wipe Ukraine off the map when Putin has made his intentions very clear from day one. Had the signing nations abided by the Minsk Agreement, there would have been fair elections in the Russian regions of Ukraine and all of this could have been avoided. But the neocons want war with Russia. “We all want a quick peace,” lied Stoltenberg. “At the same time, we must recognize that if [Ukrainian President Volodymyr] Zelenskyy and the Ukrainians stop fighting, their country will no longer exist. If President Putin and Russia stop fighting, we will have peace.” All of the peace offerings have been declined. War is the only option now, and Ukraine will continue to milk its Western allies for everything they can give.

Meloni Responds to Migrant Crisis


Armstrong Economics Blog/International News Re-Posted Sep 19, 2023 by Martin Armstrong

Italian PM Giorgia Meloni announced that Italy will begin cracking down on illegal immigration in the wake of the Lampedusa invasion. The small fishing island of Lampedusa in Sicily has seen its population double this month after countless African migrants arrived on shore. Meloni promised a tough stance on migration during her campaign yet illegal immigration to Italy has doubled in the past year. EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen went to Sicily with Meloni to discuss the situation.

To curtail the flow of refugees, the Italian government will not detain illegal migrants for up to 18 months. “We will decide who comes to the European Union, and under what circumstances. Not the smugglers,” Von der Leyen said. The EU under former German Chancellor Angela Merkel opened up the floodgates of refugees many years ago when claiming Europe was a safe haven for asylum seekers. People from throughout the second and third world have since found their way to Europe. Other EU nations are looking at the situation in Italy and realizing their borders will be next.

French interior minister Gerald Darmanin said that it is France’s responsibility to “help our Italian friends.” It is also their responsibility to let those wishing to illegally enter Europe that they are not welcome. ‘’Our will is to fully welcome those who should be welcomed, but we should absolutely send back those who have no reason to be in Europe,” he said, noting that there was no particular reason for these people to claim political asylum.

I mentioned that these migrants are primarily military-aged men traveling alone. They are using an old military strategy where they dock their boats in rapid succession to overwhelm the Italian coastguard. There is more to this situation and a reason that the first world is being bombarded with migrants. The Italian Navy may be deployed to guard the waters with North Africa if the crisis worsens. “It does not make sense to trust traffickers, because they will take a lot of money, put you on a boat that is unfit for the journey and once you get here you will be detained and sent back,” Meloni pleaded.
