Zelensky And Bush To Give Joint Pro-War Presentation, by Caitlin Johnstone

Zelensky and Bush have one of the easiest jobs int he U.S.: sell war. From Caitlin Johnstone at caitlinjohnstone.com:

War criminal George W Bush and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be appearing at an event next week at the George W. Bush Presidential Center, in partnership with US government-funded narrative management operations Freedom House and National Endowment for Democracy. The goal of the presentation will reportedly be to address the completely fictional and imaginary concern that congressional Republicans won’t continue supporting US proxy war efforts in Ukraine.

CNN reports:

Former US President George W. Bush will hold a public conversation with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky next week with the aim of underscoring the importance of the US continuing to support Ukraine’s war effort against Russia.

The event, which will take place in Dallas and be open to the public, comes amid questions about the willingness of the former president’s Republican Party to maintain support for Ukraine.

“Ukraine is the frontline in the struggle for freedom and democracy. It’s literally under attack as we speak, and it is vitally important that the United States provide the assistance, military and otherwise to help Ukraine defend itself,” David Kramer, the managing director for global policy at the George W. Bush Institute, told CNN. “President Bush believes in standing with Ukraine.”

The Struggle for Freedom event will take place on Wednesday, in partnership with the Freedom House and the National Endowment for Democracy, at the George W. Bush Presidential Center.

Zelensky Rings the Bell for NATO’s Last Round, by Declan Hayes

The Zelensky-Ukraine-is-winning charade is being exposed. Under the circumstances anyone who would put a dime in Ukraine expecting a legitimate return isn’t playing with a full deck. From Declan Hayes at strategic-culture.org:

Though Zelensky, like the autistic child he is at heart, can ring all the bells and push all the buttons he wants to, his time is up.

Though Volodymr Zelensky, NATO’s puppet President of the rump Ukrainian state, who recently got to ring the bell to open the day’s trading on the New York Stock Exchange, is not the first D lister to be so honored, the real question is what is the broader significance of bestowing this further honor on that clown.

Ringing the bell to reopen the New York Stock Exchange after the 9/11 terrorist attacks sent a defiant mesage that the U.S. would not be cowed and that Americans would build back better, albeit on the backs of over a million dead Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan children. Although Zelensky said that his corrupt regime would likewise build back better, if American companies would only give him and his mates hundreds of billions of dollars to do so, American companies have to balance risk with return and think with their heads, as they have no hearts. Using that metric, Zelensky might have to return to his old job of playing pianos with his penis and mainstream American companies will have to invest in countries like Russia or China, where there is a return on investment to be made.

A Dirty Joke: Ukraine’s Hero Comedian President Zelensky, by Gerald Celente

Zelensky promised to bring peace and stop corruption and he’s done neither. However, he’s managed to lead the West into a proxy war it can’t win with Russia, and he’s secured billions of dollars and euros from his patrons, and lots of armaments. Some of those dollars and euros will line his and his cronies’ pockets. Who knows where the armaments will end up. From Gerald Celente at trendsinthenews.substack.com:

The Western media refuses to approach Zelensky with a critical lense, and the world is paying for it

Since the Ukraine War began in February, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky has achieved global popularity that has reached historic proportions.

The most frequent comparison is Winston Churchill, the British imperialist who squared off against Adolf Hitler during WWII. Yes, Churchill with a murderous track record, but adored by the Western propagandists who cover up his long history of atrocities. (See: Winston Churchill: His Times, His Crimes (London: Verso, 2022).

And Zelensky, worshiped by the West and trumped up as a hero, shares elements of lies and deceit that mirror the Churchill narrative.

Clown Show

Across the spectrum – from comedians, actors, Presstitutes, politicians and presidents – Zelensky has been praised as a world leader of the first degree.

Former President George W. Bush called him “the Winston Churchill” of our time. Ben Stiller, the “Tropic Thunder” actor, met Zelensky in June and gushed, “You’re my hero!” 

The Hollywood Reporter said Stiller was “beaming” during the visit.

But before Russia’s 24 February invasion, Zelensky was perhaps best known in the U.S. as the little-known leader who was on the other line of former President Donald Trump’s infamous phone call asking him to investigate Joe Biden and the former vice president’s troubled son Hunter. The call resulted in an impeachment inquiry that eventually led to Trump’s impeachment.

Zelensky Gives Impassioned Plea For More U.S. Money While Wearing Fur Coat And Gold Chain

From The Babylon Bee:

Article Image

KYIV, UKRAINE — Ukrainian President and American pop culture icon Volodymyr Zelensky made another emotional plea today for additional U.S. funding to help his country’s war efforts against Russia.

Dressed in a full-length fur coat and a fat gold chain with a diamond-encrusted dollar sign, Zelensky made an impassioned request. “We are in dire need of additional financial resources to help us in our struggle against the evil Russian invaders,” Zelensky told the media gathered around him. “It is only through the generosity of the American government that the Ukrainian people will be able to fight back against our oppressors.”

The Biden Administration was all too happy to comply. “The President has already authorized an additional $800 million in aid for the brave Ukrainian government,” said White House spokesperson Liz Megli. “And the American people can have full confidence that this money is going directly into the hands of the Ukrainian military and suffering Ukrainian children and is in no way part of a massive international money laundering scheme.”

Republican congressional leaders initially questioned the additional funding but quickly changed their minds after the media asked them why they hated Ukrainian children and wanted them to die.

At publishing time, Zelensky was already busy earmarking where the latest wave of U.S. funding would go. “It will be used for very good things. Yes, only to aid us in our righteous cause,” Zelensky said before ordering the crew of his jet to be sure the bottles of Cristal on board were sufficiently chilled before takeoff.

The West’s ‘Endgame’ Might Be Nearer Than We Think in Ukraine. Tick Tock, by Martin Jay

The West is not going to be able to salvage anything that can be plausibly termed “victory” from the Ukraine fiasco. From Martin Jay at strategic-culture.org:

It seems that Joe Biden is now ready now to turn on Zelensky, as indeed are the British who are already calling for peace with Putin.

There was never actually a special relationship between Zelensky and Washington, more a marriage of convenience. But it seems that Joe Biden is now ready now to turn on him, as indeed are the British who are already calling for peace with Putin

One of the questions I’m often asked is what are my views of the Ukrainian president Zelensky. I always reply that despite holding impressive degrees and speaking languages, that his role has always been for the West as a ‘useful idiot’. My view, unsubstantiated I admit, is that the Americans probably wanted a substitute candidate in the wings, just in case Poroshenko didn’t deliver the goods once eased into office with a little help from U.S. meddling in 2014. Zelensky had the perfect credentials as the media figure to fill the gap of a populist leader which Joe Biden’s cabal of goons guessed (correctly) that the Ukrainians would yearn for. He ticked all the boxes.

But has that popularity both with his own people and with the West expired?

Ukraine Belatedly Admits ‘Heavy Casualty Rate’ In Appeal For More Weapons From West,by Tyler Durden

Does Ukraine need more weapons because it’s losing or winning its war with Russia. You sure don’t get a straight answer from Ukraine’s government, particularly Zelensky. From Tyler Durden at zerohedge.com:

Ukraine’s government has thus far kept its military death toll a tightly guarded secret, now four months into the conflict, even as heavy international scrutiny has focused on Russian losses amid prior widespread speculation and assertions that Russia was “losing”.

However, there’s been a noticeable shift in Western media and among the national security pundit class over the past weeks as Russian forces begin to solidify hold over nearly all the Donbas, and as the final Luhansk holdout city of Severodonetsk’s fall looks imminent.

With this backdrop, Mykhaylo Podolyak – a senior advisor to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky – admitted Thursday that Ukraine is losing between 100 and 200 troops per day amid the Russian onslaught. The figure is significantly revised upward compared to President Zelensky only last week offering a loss estimate of between 60 and 100 troops each day.

After seeking to hide or downplay information which could give the appearance of sever Ukrainian losses and battlefield setbacks, it seems taking daily average casualties public is geared toward getting more arms from the West.

Zelensky Finally Speaks The Truth, by Raúl Ilargi Meijer

It’s telling that Zelensky would link the two biggest set of lies that currently pollute the media: Covid and Ukraine. From Raúl Ilargi Meijer at theautomaticearth.com:

It’s pretty amazing, but finally Ukraine president Volodymyr Zelenskiy has said something that is actually true. Not because he intended to, but hey, beggars are choosers. Zelensk(i)y(y) today compared western weapons and sanctions to Covid vaccines. A tad late, for sure, given the vaccine fatigue, but then his audience are not the smartest sheep in the herd.

But he is so right it’s impossible to let this slip. Because any additional weapons delivered to Ukraine will have the exact same effects that the Covid vaccines have had. That is, they will kill more people and end more lives, than no vaccines and no weapons could ever have done.

A unintended brilliant insight from a murderous clown. There are actually Ukraine voices claiming that with enough weapons, they could take/retake Sievierodonetsk and other places in 2-3 days. I wish I was kidding you. They want you to ignore Russia’s warning that for them this is an existential issue, and to think Putin is just a madman looking for Lebensraum.

That way Raytheon et al can keep on adding up profits, and no Americans or British or Germans will die, so it all looks good in the media.

Volodymyr Zelensky’s Comedy Coup Will Be the Unraveling of Ukraine and the World, by Robert Bridge

It’s appropriate that the West’s proxy war against Russia is nominally led by a clown. From Robert Bridge at strategic-culture.org:

When the critical moment called for a true statesman, Ukraine has given the world a comedian, and that has made all the difference.

It’s no coincidence that the Ukrainian showman finds himself presiding over 44 million souls at this critical juncture in world history. Kiev’s Western handlers supported this comedian precisely because – not despite – tensions with Russia were ratcheting up over the Donbass.

The fine line that separates the world of entertainment from 3D reality has been blurred to the point of irrelevancy. That much has been proven by the rise of the comedian-actor Volodymyr Zelensky to the top of Ukraine’s fetid political heap.

To be clear, such things do not happen on a whim in a country where the US government, not to mention international provocateurs like George Soros, spends billions of dollars annually to keep Kiev in a state of perpetual servitude. The reality is that Zelensky, 44, has been groomed and stage-managed for the biggest role of his life for a long time.

Servant of the Corrupt, by Pedro Gonzales

This is great inside information on the corrupt clown to whom the U.S. is sending billions of dollars. From Pedro Gonzales at im1776.com:

In February 2021, by order of President Volodymyr Zelensky, Ukraine shut down three domestic television channels, accusing them of spreading Russian “propaganda.” Three months later, Zelenksky arrested Viktor Medvedchuk, who was at the time leading the second-biggest party in Ukraine’s national parliament, the pro-Russia and Eurosceptic Opposition Platform for Life (OPZZh).

Zelensky didn’t have trouble incinerating vaunted democratic norms well-before Russia crossed the Rubicon into Ukraine this year. So it was no surprise when he did it again amid the war in late March, invoking emergency powers under martial law to nationalize TV channels and ban 11 opposition parties, including OPZZh — all supposedly done in the name of combatting Russian misinformation and Russian sympathizers, even though OPZZh’s then-chairman, Yuriy Boyko, denounced the war and called for a ceasefire and the withdrawal of Russian troops from Ukraine. Zelensky, however, wouldn’t miss another opportunity to clip the wings of political opposition in his country, certainly not now that Western media rationalizes and glorifies his every move.

But the portrait of the Ukraine President as a democratic paragon whitewashes the real Zelensky and conceals a vast web of corruption and international skullduggery of which Ukraine is situated in the centre. Understanding the real Zelensky, requires seeing him as a creation of Ukrainian oligarch Ihor Kolomoisky. He is, in truth, a puppet of intrigue.

The Washington GOP: War-Besotted Sucklers on the Public Teat, by David Stockman

The only difference between Washington Democrats and Republicans is the former slightly favor the welfare state but have no problem with the warfare state and the latter slightly favor the warfare state but have no problem with the welfare state. From David Stockman at antiwar.com:

What’s wrong with these people?!

We are referring, of course, to Mitch McConnell & Co’s ostentatious visit to Kiev this weekend.

With the sad-sack Senate Republican leadership in tow, the bejowled political hack who leads the ostensible “opposition” party provided still another unwarranted boost to the dangerous megalomaniac pictured at the center of the photo below.

The fact is, Zelensky would rather shame the west into precipitating WWIII than own up to the fact that the aggressive anti-Russian actions of his own government fostered the calamity that now besets his country. Those foolish actions include his pledges to forcibly take back Crimea, join NATO, and re-acquire nukes – along with the launch, before Russia’s February 24th invasion, of an all-out offensive against the Russian-speakers of the Donbas.

So let us repair to the fundamentals. To wit, the intramural conflict between Russians and Ukrainians in the historic borderlands of Russia has no bearing whatsoever on the liberty and security of the American homeland. Yet here was the GOP leadership pledging America’s unstinting support in treasure, if not blood, for a regime in Kiev that is only slightly less corrupt and authoritarian than Putin’s strongman kleptocracy in Moscow.
