Russian army hit with biological warfare agent 31st July
Botulinum toxin type B found in body of soldiers ( severe poisoning)
( probably old stocks of biological warfare from the soviet union or perhaps cooked up by the scientists of the era ?)

possibly from here, I won’t be taking it too seriously, given the context, the war of accusations along with the more typical explosive kinetics

Both sides are blaming each other for the nuclear power plant bombing.

Well, the Ukranians claim that Russians are shooting at them from the nuclear plant and are not afraid to say that they will shoot back.
The Russians claim that the Ukranians are shelling the plant.

FRANKFURT/BERLIN, Aug 19 (Reuters) – Russia will halt natural gas supplies to Europe for three days at the end of the month via its main pipeline into the region, state energy giant Gazprom (GAZP.MM) said on Friday, piling pressure on the region as it seeks to refuel ahead of winter.
The UNSCHEDULED maintenance on the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, which runs under the Baltic Sea to Germany, deepens an energy standoff between Moscow and Brussels which has already helped send inflation surging in the region and raised the risk of rationing and recession.

Europe is switching to LNG faster than expected. Once the switch is complete they are free of Russian gas. Russia will have to close down the production for lack of markets. It is much more difficult to build gasification plants to convert gas to LNG than it is the other way to receive LNG and regasify it. Europe hoilds all the cards after this winter.

I figure I’ll start tracking how many people start dying in britain. Britain is part of the axis to fight Russia in ukraine.
Suppose you could track France, Germany, Britain, Italy as these are the powers in britain.i suppose you might see 10 percent of the population dying of the cold. As they die you’d just hand the house over to new immigrants. ? Solves two problems 1: with the old dying you reduce the pension bill 2 : you can put new immigrants into the houses of the deceased and just use gov to heat the house. Win , win.

Russian forces have lost an area larger than Denmark since the high-water mark of their invasion of Ukraine in mid-March and gained an area the size of Andorra (one percent of what they have lost) in the last 39 days.

Spring and autumn are the most difficult times for fighting in climates like that of the Ukraine.
There’s only three seasons there; summer, winter, and mud. And mud comes twice a year.
In spring, the snow and ice thaws, and it’s mud.
In autumn, it rains before winter, and its mud. And it’s getting autumnal there.
No-one makes much in the way of plans for manoeuvre or attack when it’s ‘mud season’. You either wait for summer to dry out the ground, or for winter to freeze it hard.

Russia are still losing, tacticaly and strategically.
Europe gas supply reserves are now running at 75% capacity, nearly reaching the target of 80% that most experts think they need to hold for the upcoming winter. A sharp increase from the less than 50% reserves at the start of May. Europe are bringing on floating LNG regasification plants much faster than anticipated. In a couple of months they will be free of reliance upon Russian gas. If Russia turns off the gas to Europe now, it will never get switched back on. There’s goes Russia’s main economic backbone industry, and what they thought was their key bargaining chip over Europe. Gone.
Sure, it is costing the EU money and driving inflation through higher prices, but once the switch is complete it is done. The world will settle back into a new normal without Russia.

You are far smarter than many.
Just read this about the death of Alan Turing:
“The idea that he committed suicide is almost certainly false. The coroner just assumed he killed himself because he was sure all gay men were feeble hysterics, but in fact Turing seems to have found the whole affair of the court-case rather funny. He was much too autistic to be upset by perceived public humiliation, and didn’t give a damn what people thought of him. The medical evidence suggests that he died because he accidentally inhaled fumes during an experiment a few hours before his death – he was known to have a very cavalier attitude to lab safety.”
Anyone heard that before? As far as I remember everything I have read just says he committed suicide.
Suppose I could see what TATE has to say.
Sorry about that.

Alexander Mercouris is a former London barrister who was struck off in 2012 for forging a letter from Baroness Hale, Justice of the Supreme Court.
He also claimed that bogus police officers kidnapped him and took him to a meeting with Lord Phillips.
Mercouris claimed the former Lord Chief Justice of England and Wales pleaded with him to drop a case in exchange for a £50,000 bribe, plus his debts and mortgage paid off.
He also alleged that Lord Phillips threatened to have his 102-year-old grandmother put into a care home.

“You can make up your own reality”, but it seems that you and putin already have.
I’m going to make a claim. Are you relying on “Fox News” to provide you with information?
The thing that most people don’t know is that the west has been pumping weapons and money into ukraines since 2014. The russians have been clearing entrenched and fortified positions that have been constructed over years. The average Australian doesn’t know or care what’s happening there – us supporting ukraine is going to bite us in the arse. The liberals being kicked out last election will probably stop us getting embroiled with Taiwan. I laughed when I saw AUKUS – it’s virtually impossible to get ANYTHING done here unless it’s paperwork and ladies sat infront of computers doing admin – good luck getting those subs being done anytime soon.

Germany is now telling its citizens to consider using damp rags to clean themselves rather than proper showers. Inflation is through the roof, the Euro is falling

Gas shortages across Europe are likely to last for several winters to come, the chief executive of Shell has said, raising the prospect of continued energy rationing as governments across the continent push to develop alternative supplies.
Cuts to the supply of Russian gas since the invasion of Ukraine have plunged European countries into a devastating energy crisis, driving up wholesale prices to leave consumers facing huge bills and the highest rates of inflation since the 1980s.
Speaking at a press conference in Norway on Monday, Ben van Beurden said the situation could persist for several years. “It may well be that we will have a number of winters where we have to somehow find solutions,” he said.

Russia has condemned the destruction of Soviet war memorials in the three Baltic states and accused them of persecuting their Russian-speaking minorities.
In a statement, the Russian foreign ministry accused Latvia, Lithuania and Estonia of being guilty of xenophobia and said they were treating their ethnic Russian minorities as “second-class people”.
It claimed Russian-language media, kindergartens and schools were being shut down.
Such “Russophobic approaches” will “certainly affect the state of bilateral relations with these countries, which are already in complete decline”, the ministry said.

In real life of course, those countries are merely engaging in a bit of overdue derussification, having been forced to adopt Russian ways for generations under the communists, during which time their own culture and aspirations were viciously suppressed.
Since “Russian culture” has long defined itself by Russian jealousy and resentment of the more advanced cultures of the West, former Soviet bloc countries are really not depriving themselves of anything valuable by kicking Russia and its language out of their curriculum.
Russia cuts off gas supply to French energy giant
Gazprom has announced it will halt supplies to Engie following the French company’s failure to pay for gas deliveries in July
Russian energy giant Gazprom announced on Tuesday that gas flows via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline will be stopped from August 31 until September 3 due to maintenance.Data from the gas pipeline operator, Nord Stream AG, indicates that no gas supplies have been contracted for transportation as of 03:00 Moscow time on August 31.

if its just disinformation then you don’t need to worry about it. just think that ukraine is steadily pushing forward and the russians have lost 50,000 if that makes you feel better, either way it doesn’t affect me much (yet) and theres nothing i can do personally.
But you post their obvious lies here everyday, without providing a source, reputable or not.

the uko army has been shelling the nuclear powerstation from across the river, the russians are obviously trying to find the howitzers/ missiles being used to hit it. they’ve taken down a few uko howitzers with counter battery. its a stalling tactic to get the russians to concentrate on the powerstation.
Of course! The Ukes are trying to blow up their own nuclear power plant and contaminate half of their own country with radiation but the heroic ruskies are valiantly defending it by parking their artillery right alongside the reactors. Why didn’t I see that?

Russia’s state-controlled natural gas supplier, Gazprom, heralded a major escalation in Moscow’s energy war with Western Europe on Friday when it announced that the Nord Stream 1 pipeline would remain closed indefinitely, a move that increases the prospect of blackouts and economic turmoil across the continent.

Russia needs to be careful.
It’d be a tough and expensive learning process, no doubt about it, but there’s a chance that Western Europe might learn how to live without Russian gas, or to at least reduce its need for it, and to develop alternative supplies.
If Russia makes it too difficult, it could easily reduce its own importance to and relevance to Western Europe.
And if that happens, it’d just feed their ‘oh, woe, no-one likes us, they’re out to get us’ paranoia.

why is there even any bother to be conciliatory at this point though, well actually apart from rich bastards wanting a finger in every pie so opposed to renewables and other woke shit, we mean
if cutting back on fossil fuel dependence is good for environment and good for geopolitical security all at the same time

Aye. Once the EU complete the switch to LNG they can afford to be even harder on Russia with the sanctions.

What could be even worse for the Russians is secondary sanctions. The west telling China and India “sure, you can buy that cheap Russian oil and gas, but if you do we’ll put sanctions in place against you”.
Can’t be done at the moment but once the switch is made then it becomes a possibility,

On top of all that, Russia can’t export much oil and gas to China and India because of geography. Pretty much all of their oil and gas pipeline network runs west towards Europe. They don’t have big export ports to send it by ship, and those that do are in the Black Sea or the Baltic behind choke-points controlled by NATO-aligned countries. To export to India and China they need to build new pipeline. I am not even sure if a pipeline to India is possible given that Pakistan is in the way.

if China tells Pakistan to let it happen, it’ll happen.

I was thinking the other way around. India would not let that happen. They have seen the EU example and want to avoid going down that road.
The only reason why India are buying Russian oil right now (oil only, not gas) is because Russia are selling it at a huge discount, rumoured to be around $35 per barrel, so they don’t have to shut down the wells.

And that’s what I mean by secondary sanctions. The west eventually tells them to stop buying the oil.
