Putin Recognizes Donbass Republics, Sends Russian Military to 'Denazify' Ukraine

[thorbiorn]

I am not competent to judge whether it was indeed phosphorous weapon. It is disputable for me if any buildings in that area still could be considered as civilian area. Finally Wagner is the private group but... looking on video it was quite of hell. It brings me impression that Musicians decided this time ends justify the means.

There is a Wiki for this topic, commenting on the battle of Azovstal, it was said:

Defence View and Forbes explain that the Russians probably used 9M22S incendiary shells developed by NPO Splav during the Soviet era.[24][14] Instead of a high-explosive fragmentation warhead, the 9M22S rocket carries a warhead containing 180 separate 9N510 incendiary elements.[25] Designed to ignite vegetation, storage facilities, or fuel, these incendiary elements consist of hexagonal prisms made from a magnesium alloy known to the Russian GOST as ML-5,[26][27] filled with a thermite mixture.[1][28] Each element has a nominal length of 40 mm and a width of 25 mm and a burning time of at least 2 minutes. It is also noted that the effect of these incendiary, as well as conventional lighting munitions (especially at night), outwardly resembles the use of phosphorus munitions.[24]

And a Ukrainian site writes:

Not phosphorus: Russia uses 9M22S incendiary projectiles in Ukraine
Russia’s armed forces use 9M22S incendiary munitions from MLRS against Ukraine.

The effect of these flammable munitions and lighting munitions is often confused with phosphorus munitions.

They have an image of the rocket and its design, but the file size is too large.

The pictures you find on the above page are similar to these from Telegram:
March 31 Telegram – a new era of messaging

The AFU position in the Avdiivka direction was destroyed by incendiary mines from a 120mm mortar. The artillery of the 1st Donetsk Corps is working.

Anticipating questions from the Ukrainian side and the next reflections of colleagues with a humanitarian mindset - this is not white phosphorus, which is a chemical weapon. This is a good old World War II lighter, the main element of which is termite

Ukry is in shock. Bakhmut.

Military commander Dmitry Steshin:

"180 pieces in a rocket, the gorenje temperature is about 3000 degrees - higher than that of phosphorus, but phosphorus is already considered unconventional ammunition. Our people are trying to comply with this restriction." - he reports.

 

[thorbiorn]

Writing the previous post about incendiary weapons, I wondered how they got to 3000 degrees and how to put out such a fire if even possible. Here are two articles: translated from Russian:

1.2. Brief description of incendiary substances: napalm, pyrogel, termite, white phosphorus

Main page > Articles > 1.2. Brief description of incendiary substances: napalm, pyrogel, termite, white phosphorus

Incendiary mixtures based on petroleum products (napalm)
Incendiary mixtures based on petroleum products (napalm) can be non-condensed and thickened (viscous). This is the most widespread type of incendiary mixtures of burn and incendiary action. Unloaded incendiary mixtures are prepared from gasoline, diesel fuel or lubricating oils. Thickened mixtures are viscous, gelatinous substances consisting of gasoline or other liquid hydrocarbon fuel mixed in certain proportions with various thickeners (both combustible and non-combustible).

Metallized incendiary mixtures (pyrogels)
Metallized incendiary mixtures (pyrogels) consist of petroleum products with additives of powdered or in the form of magnesium or aluminum shavings, oxidizing agents, liquid asphalt and heavy oils. The introduction of combustible metals into the composition of pyrolytes increases the combustion temperature and gives these mixtures a burning ability.

Napalm and pyrogels have the following main properties::

• they adhere well to various surfaces of weapons, military equipment, uniforms and the human body;
• highly flammable and difficult to remove and extinguish;
• when burning, a temperature of 1000-1200°C for napalm and 1600-1800 ° C for pyrogels is developed.

Napalm burns at the expense of air oxygen, pyrogels burn both at the expense of air oxygen and at the expense of the oxidizer included in their composition (most often nitric acid salts).

Napalm is used to equip tank, mechanized and satchel flamethrowers, aerial bombs and tanks, as well as various types of land mines. Pirogels are equipped with incendiary aviation ammunition of small and medium caliber. Napalm and pyrogels can cause severe burns to personnel, set fire to equipment, and also create fires on the ground, in buildings and structures. Pyrogels are also capable of burning through thin sheets of steel and duralumin.

Termites and termite compounds
During the combustion of termites and thermite compositions, thermal energy is released as a result of the interaction of oxides of one metal with another metal. Iron-aluminum thermite compositions containing oxidizing agents and binding components are most widely used. Termites and thermite compounds form liquid molten slag with a temperature of about 3000°C. The burning thermite mass is capable of melting elements of weapons and military equipment made of steel and various alloys. Thermite and thermite compounds burn without air access, are used to equip incendiary mines, shells, small-caliber bombs, hand incendiary grenades and checkers.

White phosphorus and plasticized white phosphorus
White phosphorus is a solid, toxic, waxy substance that spontaneously ignites in air and burns with the release of large amounts of acrid white smoke. The burning temperature of phosphorus is 1200°C.

Plasticized white phosphorus is a mixture of white phosphorus and a viscous synthetic rubber solution. Unlike ordinary phosphorus, it is more stable during storage; when broken, it is crushed into large, slow-burning pieces. Burning phosphorus causes severe, painful burns that do not heal for a long time. It is used in artillery shells and mines, aerial bombs, and hand grenades. As a rule, incendiary and smoke-forming ammunition is equipped with white phosphorus and plasticized white phosphorus.

And:

TECHNIQUES AND METHODS OF EXTINGUISHING INCENDIARY SUBSTANCES OF A POTENTIAL ENEMY
Incendiary substances include:

• incendiary mixtures based on petroleum products (napalm);
• metallized incendiary mixtures (pyrogels);
• termite and termite compositions.

Ordinary and plasticized white phosphorus can be used as incendiary substances.

Incendiary mixtures based on petroleum products (napalm) can be non-condensed and thickened (viscous).

Unloaded incendiary mixtures are prepared from gasoline, diesel fuel and lubricating oils and are mainly used from flamethrowers.

Thickened incendiary mixtures are viscous and jelly-like substances consisting of gasoline or other liquid fuel mixed with various thickeners.

As thickeners in napalm are used:

• a mixture of aluminum salts of naphthenic, palmettic, oleic acids and coconut oil acids;
• rubber or other polymeric substances (napalm "B").

Metallized incendiary mixtures (pyrogels) consist of petroleum products with additives of powdered or in the form of magnesium shavings, liquid asphalt and heavy oils. In appearance, pyrogel is a dough-like soft mass of gray color, somewhat heavier than water, and burns with a strongly smoky flame.

Napalm and pyrogels have the following properties::

• they adhere well to the surface of various objects, weapons, military equipment, uniforms and the human body;
• highly flammable and difficult to remove and extinguish;
• when burning, they develop a high temperature: napalm 1000-1200°C, pyrogels-1600°C.

When burning napalm "B", toxic fumes are released, which cause irritation of the eyes and respiratory organs.

White phosphorus and metallic sodium are used as an igniter of napalm and pyrogel. White phosphorus ignites spontaneously in the air. Metallic sodium ignites napalm and pyrogel when it comes into contact with water.

Termite and termite compounds are a powdered mixture of iron and aluminum oxide. Due to iron oxides, termite can burn without air access, including under water. When burning, the termite quickly turns into a molten mass of dazzling white color, capable of burning through sheet steel.

The incendiary substance electron is an alloy consisting mainly of magnesium.

Special pyrotechnic compositions are used to ignite thermite mixtures and electrons.

Incendiary substances can be used in aerial bombs of different power, special cassettes, tanks, anti-tank mines and land mines. In addition, phosphorous grenades, mines, shells, thermite grenades and checkers can be made.

Water, foam, powder formulations, and sand are most often used to extinguish incendiary agents and fires caused by them.

Thermite and electron-thermite incendiary aerial bombs of low power, detected immediately after their fall, are thrown out with a shovel or a hand wearing a tarpaulin mitt from the room to the street or immersed in a container with water, at the bottom of which a layer of sand is laid. Incendiary aerial bombs (ZAB) stuck in the roof, walls and ceilings should be removed with a crowbar, tongs, axe or shovel and then removed from the room or submerged in water.

PS-1 powder, as well as sand, earth and other similar materials can be successfully used to extinguish burning fires. When extinguishing with sand, for example, a burning bomb is rolled onto a sand cushion at least 5 cm thick and covered with sand on top. After the bomb is burned, the remaining slag should be removed to a safe place.

Napalm and pyrogel are extinguished with powerful jets (solid or sprayed) of water, sand, and foam.

Extinguishing of the burning equipment is carried out with the help of fire extinguishers and improvised means. It should be noted that in the presence of white phosphorus, extinguished napalm and pyrogel can self-ignite, so the remaining clots must be carefully removed from the burned objects, collected and buried in the ground or burned in a safe place.

A small amount of burning incendiary mixture that has fallen on the uniforms can be extinguished by covering the burning place with a thick cloth, wet clay or sand. It is not recommended to remove the burning mixture by wiping, as this leads to an increase in the burning area.

If a large amount of burning mixture gets on a person, it must be tightly covered with a greatcoat or some other auxiliary material (earth, sand, etc.).

In all cases, first of all, fires are eliminated that make it difficult to perform a combat mission or pose a threat to personnel, weapons, transport, military equipment and military property.

When extinguishing fires caused by incendiary substances, the forces and means of regular and non-standard divisions and formations of the fire service are used.

Some results of yesterday's terrorist raid on the Belgorod region. The losses in manpower are still being reported very vaguely. I hope that accurate data will appear soon. About the technique below in the articles

Operation "Self-destruction": the enemy lost all American and other equipment during the attack on the Belgorod region (PHOTO, VIDEO)

When regaining control of the Grayvoron checkpoint in the Belgorod region, the Russian army confirmed the destruction of more than 10 pieces of enemy equipment. Among them:

3 armored vehicles HMWWV ("Humvee"),

1 MaxxPro armored car;

+2 MaxxPro captured by our;

1 armored car AMZ Dzik;

1 KrAZ "Cobra";

Off-road pickup trucks.

A day of fighting in the Belgorod region turned into a bloody failure for the Ukrainian Armed Forces: Ukraine lost at least 8 units of armored fighting vehicles, pickups and several dozen militants.

Russian fighters lost only one broken BTR-82A (now Ukrainians are collecting 1 million hryvnias for repairs).

[ApotheosisMMC.]

I've noticed also something bit close close to your theory. Day after Prigozhin's announcement about retreat from Bakhmut, Wagner launched an attack on AFU. Media reported:

Ukraine war: Russia accused of using phosphorus bombs in Bakhmut

Then shortly allegedly they got requested support from MOD.

I am not competent to judge whether it was indeed phosphorous weapon. It is disputable for me if any buildings in that area still could be considered as civilian area. Finally Wagner is the private group but... looking on video it was quite of hell. It brings me impression that Musicians decided this time ends justify the means.

I don't remember if such aggressive offensive was performed by regular forces of Russia. Wagner brought results, but I suspect the MOD had given an ultimatum - no more of this, finish the job and get out of there. In that way Russia can just blow up in a days half of Ukraine and the war will be over but this is not a case isn't it?

Well, the same article says that they are not prohibited as long as they are not used on civilians, it even says that they do not even fall into the category of incendiary weapons since they are used as a source of creating smoke screens for the purpose of concealing military operations. .. these weapons anyway, whether they are white phosphorus or something else, have already been used by Russia in Kramatorsk or in the Azovstal metallurgy in Mariupol, so at least it is, perhaps not a strong reason not to praise Wagner.

Prigozhin gave a long interview, May 23. Link to video in telegram in Russian at the end of the post.

Main theses (automatically translated):

The head of Wagner PMC Yevgeny Prigozhin gave an hour and a half interview to media technologist Konstantin Dolgov. Although throughout the conversation they go over and over again through the Russian elites and the decision-making system, there are quite interesting details in the interview that can be perceived without emotional overtones.

By June 1 - with a backlash of up to 10 days - PMCs should "as correctly" transfer Bakhmut to units of the RF Armed Forces. If the Russian Ministry of Defense is unable to do this, then this fact, according to Prigozhin, will discredit the Russian Armed Forces and make PMCs more combat-ready than regular troops. And from the point of view of public administration, this is incorrect.

At the beginning of the siege of Bakhmut, there were 35 thousand fighters in the ranks of PMCs. For all the time of the NWO, 50 thousand people were recruited among the prisoners. 20% of them (10 thousand prisoners) died in battle. Another 10 thousand full-time PMC fighters also died.

According to the results of the battle for Bakhmut (Artyomovsk), the loss of the Armed Forces of Ukraine killed - 50 thousand people, wounded - 50-70 thousand people.

If Artyomovsk is surrendered, then Wagner PMC will first go “within the law and in jackets with bloody hands” to Frunzenskaya Embankment to ask uncomfortable questions, and then they will go again to save the Motherland.

Territorial defense is the most pragmatic decision that could be made in the current conditions. It is not the task of the FSB to fight off the DRG, but the Ministry of Defense. And the locals could help.

According to Prigozhin, the ideal candidates for the post of Minister of Defense and Chief of the General Staff are Mizintsev and Surovikin. The minister of defense, he said, should not be a "political figure" but deal with the military machine.

“Society always demands justice”, and if there is no justice, then “revolutionary moods arise”.

Hurrah-patriotism is good only for a short period of time. And jingoistic patriotism based on invented facts makes “people play the fool and do nothing” – this is the “Navalny effect”.

The war is p$dorastic in nature, both sides call each other p$doras.

Prigogine's political credo: "I love Russia, I don't care about Shoigu, we will continue to fight."

There are two scenarios - an optimistic one, which Prigogine does not believe in, and a not very optimistic one. The first option is that Europe and the United States will get tired, China will put everyone at the negotiating table, where Russia will say to the taken territories “This is all ours” and they will listen to it.

The pessimistic scenario is that the Ukrainians are given missiles, they have trained troops and command staff, equipment, they will continue fighting and counterattack (possibly successfully), and then they will try to restore the borders until 2014. For Russia, this scenario will not be good, so you need to prepare for a difficult war.

We need to stop building glass towers and fattening, we need to work only for the war, transferring all production to military needs and declaring additional waves of mobilization. First you need to stabilize the front, and only then deal with civilian things.

A good figure. I like it

Russian electronic warfare systems burn 10 thousand Ukrainian drones every month
The Ukrainian army is losing up to 10,000 UAVs per month due to Russian electronic warfare systems.

According to the latest data published in the American newspaper New York Post, the Ukrainian army loses up to ten thousand unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) every month due to the actions of Russian electronic warfare systems (EW). Information about this was obtained from the British analytical center RUSI.

"Electronic warfare remains a key component of the Russian military strategy. Despite the high density of electronic warfare systems in the Donbas in 2022, currently there is approximately one large electronic warfare system for every ten kilometers of the front, usually located seven kilometers from the front line," the report of British analysts indicates.

The report also notes that almost every platoon of the Ukrainian army has unmanned aerial vehicles. In most cases, these are commercial quadrocopters that have been modified to be able to drop ammunition.

According to British analysts, the Ukrainian army does not attach due importance to such large-scale losses of drones. Experts explain this by the lack of reliable data on the number of purchased and lost drones. Most purchases of quadrocopters for the needs of the Ukrainian army are carried out in a chaotic manner, and accounting for purchased and lost UAVs is not carried out.

Nevertheless, such a fact indicates that Russian electronic warfare systems effectively suppress Ukrainian drones and only a few units leak through the means of defense.

Российские комплексы РЭБ ежемесячно выжигают 10 тысяч украинских беспилотников

Everything happens for the first time sometime

RIA Novosti: S-350 shot down Ukrainian planes for the first time in full automatic mode

In fully automatic mode, without the participation of an operator, the Russian S-350 Vityaz anti-aircraft missile system shot down Ukrainian aircraft in the area of its own. As an informed source told RIA Novosti, this mode of operation was tested in combat conditions for the first time in the world.

The Vityaz air defense system also performed detection and tracking of Ukrainian air targets without the participation of an operator.

"The missiles of the system shot down several combat aircraft and drones of Ukraine," the agency interlocutor stressed.

It is noted that the Russian combat crew only controlled the operation of the complex.

"The automatic mode was implemented on the principle of the absence of human cancellation of decisions of the elements of artificial intelligence of the complex within the emerging air combat situation," the source said.

"Vityaz" simultaneously worked in both active and passive radar modes. Such tactics increase the noise immunity of the complex, its ability to detect and classify targets is growing.

Earlier, Rosoboronexport CEO Alexander Mikheev said that the export of the latest Russian anti-aircraft air defense system-the S-500 missile defense system will begin in the next few years.

Well, what can I say? It is becoming increasingly obvious that Ukrainian terrorism will not go away by itself. This problem will have to be solved approximately as it was solved in the late 40s-early 50s.

In the Rostov region, an unknown man blew himself up during detention

An unknown man, who had explosives with him, wanted to break into the territory of the Rostov region, but when detained by border guards, he blew himself up. This is reported by Shot.

As a result of the explosion, the attacker died.

The incident occurred near the checkpoint "Fun-Voznesenka" on the territory of the Rostov region.

According to the Telegram channel, an unknown person climbed over the fence and headed towards the forest in the direction of the Maximov farm.

Soon the border guards were alerted.

At the same time, when the violator began to catch up and he realized that it was not possible to escape, the man used an improvised explosive device.

At the moment, the identity of the deceased has not yet been established, an investigation is underway in connection with the incident.

Earlier, Shot reported that Russian border guards stopped an attempt to break through saboteurs 35 km from Kozinka.

Kursk Governor Roman Starovoit also confirmed the interception of Ukrainian drones by border guards in the Sudzhansky district.

Maria Zakharova with a sad, but long-suggested conclusion.

"HE STOPPED BEING A DECENT PERSON": ZAKHAROVA ASSESSED BORREL'S WORDS ABOUT THE UKRAINIAN DRG

The day before, during a press conference following the meeting of EU defense ministers, Josep Borrel, the head of the EU foreign policy service, could not answer the question about the DRG attack on the Belgorod region, confusing Belgorod and Belgrade.

Maria Zakharova, the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, on the air of Sputnik radio noted that such a comment by Borrel is a Freudian reservation.

He has either the Belgorod region or Belgrade - everything is mixed up. Perhaps this is such a Freudian reservation, because as they treated Belgrade, so do they treat everything that falls out of their vassal system,

- Maria Zakharova noted.

In general, the diplomat added, Borrel's statements indicate that he "has ceased to be a decent person," and this ceases to be a matter of political position.

"This is not a question of his political position. This is a question of the fact that they have lied so much that they contradict themselves, that this lie becomes obvious, that they are a total mockery with these absolutely false statements, somewhere already going beyond the bounds of sanity," the representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stressed.

Prigozhin gave a long interview, May 23. Link to video in telegram in Russian at the end of the post.

At the beginning of the siege of Bakhmut, there were 35 thousand fighters in the ranks of PMCs. For all the time of the NWO, 50 thousand people were recruited among the prisoners. 20% of them (10 thousand prisoners) died in battle. Another 10 thousand full-time PMC fighters also died.

According to the results of the battle for Bakhmut (Artyomovsk), the loss of the Armed Forces of Ukraine killed - 50 thousand people, wounded - 50-70 thousand people.

This would mean a Ukrainian Armed Forces to :Russian Armed Forces of 50,000:20,000 (5:2) killed and 60,000:? wounded, In other words, for every Russian soldier killed, 2.5 Ukrainians were killed. We do not know how the medical care is near the front lines. If the medical care is better in Russia than in Ukraine, there could be even more remaining wounded on the Russian side, but if the fighting on the frontline is very intense it may not always be possible to bring wounded people under proper care leaving the sides more equal in this regard, if that is the case there would be about 24,000 wounded Russian soldiers.

The ration of killed to wounded is close to 1:1.2 on both sides, meaning that for everyone killed, there is a bit more that were only wounded. This is a very high figure. The relation between killed in action and wounded in action (leaving out the missing in action) has been a subject of much study. Here is a page that looks at US figures in different wars, and this page has:

Consider that the typical ratio of those wounded to those killed in conflict has historically hovered around the 3:1 mark. With recent medical advances, however, the U.S. wounded-to-killed ratio today ranges anywhere from 10:1 to 17:1.

Of course, we don't know how honest the reporting is, and a Russian VK suggested between 1:2 and 1;6 for modern battle. The fighting in Artyomovsk was maybe modern warfare, but it has been more intense than most modern battles have been.

 

[lilies]

We do not know how the medical care is near the front lines. If the medical care is better in Russia than in Ukraine, there could be even more remaining wounded on the Russian side, but if the fighting on the frontline is very intense it may not always be possible to bring wounded people under proper care leaving the sides more equal in this regard, if that is the case there would be about 24,000 wounded Russian soldiers.

Colonel Douglas Macgregor confirms Ukraine has had very little possibilities to treat wounded in Bakhmut, that's why the high losses on the Ukrainian side, their soldiers bleeding out on the battlefield. My Russian language teacher had relatives in Ukraine ~33 years ago. When visiting them she said Ukrainian is quite understandable with Russian language knowledge. Imagine how people like her - living in Hungary maybe close to the border as she - feel about the war..

My very religious Christian programmer acquaintance continues to develop the famous 3D-Coat software in Kiev to this day. He lives there with his wife and two young children. Plus relatives of course.. He understandably automated his house, so he can work seamlessly even during blackouts. He is quite angry about the whole Russian aggression, which is understandable. Everybody wants a quiet, peaceful and prosperous life.

Only the USA Deep State and the Rot-hschilds Club drink wine with laughter and are dancing on the roofs with champagne having caused this situation.

 

[Aeneas]

A German general has spoken up about war crimes committed by Ukrainian soldiers. He became aware of it as soldiers sent to Germany to be trained, bragged and showed videos of their torture of Russian POW. He had the conscience to speak up about it, though there is little reaction from the German authorities.
(https://telegra.ph/file/bbfc5ba99c9085d083925.jpg) Ukrainian neo-Nazis.

Epic events are unfolding in Germany but no one seems to talk about them.

A top ranked German General Andreas Marlow has been appointed to train Ukrainians at an "international training center" but after realising who he is actually dealing with, he contacted the prosecutor's office and the German MOD to launch an investigation on Ukrainian war crimes against Russian POV's and civilians.

During his work with the Ukrainian neo-Nazis soldiers he pointed out in particular that Ukrainian soldiers trained at the bases of Wildflecken and Hummelburg repeatedly bragged and showed videos of brutal tortures and executions of Russian prisoners of war, confirming Ukrainian involvement in war crimes.

Although dozens of German officers saw these videos, they were ordered not to disclose what they saw in oder to avoid ruining Ukraine's "reputation".

Since many of German officers do not want to lose their official posts, they do not make the facts of the Ukrainian war crimes public.

Funny enough, it gets even worse, Ukrainian soldiers according to the report have showed great interest in the archives of the Nazi SS torture programs and repeatedly asked their German trainees to be familiarized with the archives of the "special methods" used against the Soviet captives during the WW2.

Apparently Marlow is one of the few generals in the west who will not step over his honor and will not accept the policy of concealing war crimes even if it will cost him his position or rank.

He is convinced that the torture facts must be investigated, and the officers should be allowed to speak up on what they saw during their work with the Ukrainians..

Even though Marlow submitted a formal application to Duscha Gmel - the federal prosecutor at the Federal Court of Justice, and a copy to the German Ministry of Defense back in February of 2023, he still did not receive any official response from the authorities.

The current consensus is that the Armed Forces of Ukraine are on their last legs of ever achieving victory against Russia.

Kiev’s Miserable Revenge For Bakhmut
23.05.2023 Video Open snip:

The fall of the Bakhmut fortress was one of the largest defeats of the Ukrainian military since the beginning of the Russian military operation. Kiev is yet to admit the Russian control of the city, while Ukrainian soldiers continue to fight on its streets only in the media.

The loss of the battle which claimed lives of tens of thousands of Ukrainian servicemen deals a heavy blow to the Kiev regime. Another defeat also worries NATO countries which have already paid billions to the loosing Ukrainian military.

The Russian flag is waving over Bakhmut, and Zelensky’s brazen lie is increasingly undermining the trust of his audience.

Thus the disinformation platforms become even more desperate.

[Cosmos]

I just wanted to share some news and propose a theory why Russian MoD may be reluctant to praise Wagner group and give it medals, etc.

There was this news circulating Telegram for the past couple of days:



There is no clear mention of him being an ex-convict. But we do know that Wagner took in a lot of convicts. It's true that officially we've been told that no rapists were allowed to join, but there is no real way to verify these claims. And even if he wasn't a convict prior to this, it definitely doesn't paint a pretty picture for Wagner. On the other hand, it's not like we didn't know that there are people like this that chose to be mercenaries. It is after all a Private Military company that employs mercenaries. And they do their job well. This is the nature of war, where people with various psyche "peculiarities" are able to do the job better than us "mostly neurotic normies".

So I am not saying that this is the reason for MoD reluctance to associate itself too closely with Wagner. But it does make people think, since it's not the first incidence. I am also sure that Prigozhin would deal with such a person in a harshest manner if he was still part of Wagner.

My ex colleague, for example, thinks that these kind of people shouldn't be allowed to return to society at all. Let them fight as much as they can and utilize their "talents", but in her view, they should be "dealt with" if it's their time to return to society. That dying on the field is the best and optimal outcome for them. She also made sure to mention that not all of them are like this. Apparently she knows someone who served in Wagner during Syria campaign, and now he has a big business, but the fact remains that Wagner took in a lot of volatile elements that once they will be done with their contract, no one know if they will honor whatever they learned while being part of the PMC.

All valid speculations IMO.

 

[Aeneas]

On the question why Prigozhin is so openly attacking Shoigu, then it might partly be due to a threat of competition. From what Dima mentioned in yesterday's analysis, another PMC, "Storm Z" has become active in the Kupyansk area. That PMC is allegedly under the control of Shoigu. It is said to also consist of a mixture of convicts and former military personell. It would make sense for the Russian MoD to set up a similar outfit to Wagner, so as to have more control over it. If that is really the case, then Prigozhin might perceive it as a threat to his power base. Russian forum members might have more on this from Russian sources. The clip where Dima mentions this is here:

Encouraging to read that some people in the military oppose torture, which is a topic that was brought up in Session 13 September 2009 where one encounters replies like:
A: Acceptance of torture is the "mark of the beast."
A: Silence in the face of "evil" is equal to participation unless there is a good reason for the silence that serves a higher goal.

There is so much more, and I decided to leave the interlude about singing and music in, as it lightens the surrounding discussion, which began with a review of some of the experiences people have had after they began to practice the Éiriú-Eolas - Breathing Program (thread) see online version here. This is the context for the above quotes:

Q: (L) So, okay... And there's some people who are having very mild experiences, and there are some people who aren't having much experience at all. What is going on with people who are not having much in the way of experience?

A: They are fusing smaller segments a little at a time. Tell them to be patient and persistent. At some point they will see their own progress in retrospect. It is like walking up a gentle mountain slope.

Q: (L) So in other words, they're the lucky ones!

A: Depends on the makeup and potential for strong emotions.

Q: (L) Any other questions on that particular topic? Any particular cases that stand out? (Ark) I think I am an example of the lucky ones. (C**) Yeah, me too. (L) You did it gradually. (Keit) Well, back in C****, I thought I was going crazy as well. Now I'm kind of okay. (A***) I had a horrible experience the other night. Joe and I were doing the whole program, and I kind of switched into a vision where I was being tortured. My fingernails were being pulled off, and I started crying couldn't stop. It was pretty traumatic. But that was the first time that something like that happened. (DD) I had a dream the second night after I did the first whole program. I was in a scenario where I was with a person who was a dangerous person. And I was being stalked by police or the army or something. And I was held by the neck by this person, and he had a thing that was about half the size of a hay hook that was made out of a thin wire. And he stuck it into my kidney on the right side, and when he would pull on it, it was like a taser shock. And I screamed myself awake at about 6 o'clock in the morning. It was the strangest dream I've ever had in my entire life. I woke myself up screaming at the top of lungs. Fortunately, that hasn't recurred. (L) What is the nature of some of these really upsetting dreams and experiences that people here and people in the forum are having?

A: Memories of lives of pain and suffering that remained unresolved at the end of those lives. We are sorry that some of this is painful, but this method is actually the least traumatic method of any for this purpose. Once the dark dreams are processed out of the system, all will be better. Then there are no more hooks for illusion to attach to.

Q: (L) In other words, then people are able to be less controlled by hidden unseen or unknown emotion and more able to... (Keit) Assess reality and reactions to see what is objective...?

A: Yes

Q: (L) I have noticed that quite a number of people on the forum seem to be getting smarter. Is that just - they really seem to be getting things, putting things together, and...

A: When energy is no longer needed to support illusion it is available for knowledge and awareness.

Q: (L) So there's a lot more hope for people than they even suppose. Even more than they suspected?

A: Just remember that the slow breathing and the meditation and prayer are the most important components. If things move too fast then cut out the round breathing doing it only occasionally.

Q: (L) If things move too fast… (PL) That's exactly what I noticed. In the beginning I was doing round breathing, meditation a lot. And since I had trouble to get to sleep, I was praying one hour or two hours until I went asleep. That's when I got all those very bad dreams about getting stabbed and shot and cut and tortured. It was going too fast. Apparently, the more you do it, the faster the purging of those memories and illusions goes. (L) So, you can gauge your own process by how uncomfortable you are. And if you're uncomfortable, back off the round breathing and just do the meditation. The meditation and the prayer are the gentle, subsurface healing process I think. Is that correct?

A: Yes

Q: (L) Now, Allen acquired some interesting software. (Allen) The choir software. (L) Yes. And we had the idea of making some just regular meditation audios where I could recite the prayer and maybe sing it, or even sing some other songs and he could manipulate them with this software to make it melodic and meditation-worthy type music. So, we were wondering if this was something that was a good idea?

A: Oh definitely!!! In fact, that is a superb way for truly cosmic frequencies to be transmitted via your/our voice!!

Q: (DD) So long as it's not Patsy Kline tunes! (laughter) (L) But I wanted to channel Patsy Kline!!! (Allen) I was actually wondering if my multiplying your voice several times would actual multiply whatever it was they were putting through your voice that many times?

A: Not only that, it will enable us to insert frequency modulation directly between the layers of sound. Why don't you play a sample now?

Q: (Allen) Play a sample of the chorus, or of the music I've been working on?

A: Our voice!

Q: (Allen) How can I play a sample of your voice? I've got some music that I've been working on, but it doesn't have any choral stuff in it yet? Is that the music that you're talking about, or is there something that I'm missing?

A: What did you record today?

Q: (Allen) Ah! So, any particular song?

A: U pick!

Q: (Allen) Okay. So right now, all I have is me playing guitar, and Laura singing with a little reverb sweetening it. Would that do?

A: Yes

Q: (L) I had the idea to take ordinary songs and sing them and then for Allen to take say one ordinary song that was like a familiar melody to people, and then stretch it out to an hour CD. A song that would take 4 or 5 minutes to sing, make it stretched to one hour. And then put a musical track in the background that's more in time. So anyhow, is this a good idea?

A: Very! Try it!

Q: (L) Well, that wasn't very informative. I could have answered that, Jesus. (DD) Hang up on them! (laughter) (Keit) So which song would you choose? (L) Well, just a whole bunch of them.

[Pause while Allen tries to burn music to disc. Everyone then ends up listening to music in the office.]

Q: (Keit) On an emotional level, Amazing Grace had the most effect on me. (Allen) We can have you sing solo and then a choir of us come in and back you up. That's a thought.

A: Many possibilities, eh? Notice the "effect?"

Q: (Joe) Music to soothe the savage the beast!

A: Music to communicate to the soul.

Q: (L) Well, I really don't understand.

A: There are frequencies in your/our voice that are inaudible to the physical ear but affect the spirit.

Q: (Joe) True. (Scott) I wonder if that's why there are certain bands where the people totally can't sing, but everyone thinks they're great - I mean, above and beyond marketing and all that kind of stuff?

A: Yes! And some of them activate "interesting" frequencies!

Q: (L) When you say "interesting", what does that mean?

A: Shall we say that it is planned and deliberate for nefarious purposes.

Q: (Joe) What music were you thinking about, Scottie? (Scottie) I was just thinking after our talk the other day about objectively and subjectively good music and everything. I was thinking about some of the popular music, like pretty much everything... Like my workout music, grunge music, electric guitar music, rap music - all these different types of popular music. And some of it is actually done by somebody who can't even sing at all and people just absolutely love it. So there are all these different genres where some bands become popular, whereas you can go to a bar and here's somebody singing a song and they're ten times better, but... (L) But they're not famous. (Scottie) So why do these people who have absolutely no talent become famous, beyond the fact that they were "discovered", or advertising, etc...

A: Laurel Canyon anyone?

Q: (laughter) (Keit) We were just talking about it today! (Joe) Yeah, they were all picked. (C**) So would Laura's voice be kind of what Gurdjieff called "objective music"?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) I've got a great name for your album: Laura Canyon! (laughter) (L) I think I'll pass on that one. Unless you want to put an echo in so it sounds like I'm singing across the canyon. (PL) So, those bands in Laurel Canyon, those singers like the Mamas and the Papas, those bands that were obviously sponsored, because, through their music, they could put a kind of spell on some listeners, manipulate them, generate some negative emotions...?

A: "Spellbinders."

Q: (Keit) Maybe you can ask about movies? (L) What about movies? (Keit) We were talking about Laurel Canyon in relation to movies, and we see this same effect. (L) Did Laurel Canyon do movies? (Keit) Because it has that lab. (Allen) Oh, it has that CIA lab at the top of Laurel Canyon. (DD) Which is the spook lab. The spook's cinema lab. (Allen) It's all part of that same thing. (PL) They did some horror movies.

A: Yes. All part of the same programs.

Q: (PL) Does it generate just general negative emotions in listeners, or is it more specific nefarious purposes?

A: More specific...

Q: (Joe) Dissociation. (PL) To trigger some kind of programmed murderers or stuff like that?

A: In some cases. Like an audible "Catcher in the Rye."

Q: (C**) What's Catcher in the Rye? (Allen) Catcher in the Rye was the book that the guy who shot John Lennon had in his hands when he shot him. (L) Yeah? (Joe) Sirhan Sirhan. (L) And also the guy that shot John Lennon. (DD) It's supposedly a kind of MKULTRA trigger thing.

A: Many triggers for many programs. Now you have the means to cancel much of this.

Q: (L) What do you mean "means to cancel much of this"? (PL) Counter-music. A counter-signal. (L) You mean it's gonna be the Battle of the Bands?! (laughter)

A: You got it! On a cosmic level too!

Q: (L) I think it's strange. (PL) One of the triggers is for murderers. But they say it's one of the specific nefarious purposes. Are there examples of other specific nefarious purposes? Can they trigger suicide in people?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) General association among young people, ya know what I mean? Turn their brains into... (Keit) Like psychopathy, and violent... (Allen) I don't think it has to be that serious. It's part of the frequency fence, the music...

A: Frequency fence! [spelling at the same time Allen is speaking)

Q: (L) So you read their minds, Allen. (PL) But this music is available all over the world. (L) Yes. And our music is not. We haven't even made it! (laughter)

A: Time is awastin! And how are the videos going???!

Q: (laughter) (A***) The dog ate them. (laughter) (L) The dog ate my homework!

A: No dice!

Q: (L) Well, I don't know what to say!

A: Where is your faith in your abilities to rise to the occasion?

Q: (L) [Groans!] (Scottie) Ya know what would be awesome? Offer a CD, and then use the evil iTunes to distribute the music. (Allen) Absolutely. (Scottie) I mean, we could give it for free, too. (Joe) I think you should just start talking, ya know? And do as many tapes as you need. Just start somewhere. (A***) We could always pick a topic and we could throw questions at you. (Allen) Maybe you should just start with saying "In the beginning..." and see where it leads?

A: Try it!

Q: (L) Oooh! I don't want to do that!! (Keit) Why not? (L) I look horrible on video! (Chorus) You do NOT!! (Keit) But we'll make you pretty! (PL) You already did it! (A***) You looked beautiful! (Allen) Got a special filter that will make you look like who you want to look like. (Ark) It's fixed. (L) What's fixed? (Ark) This future is fixed. [singing] You can do it! You will do it! (L) I don't want to talk to you guys any more. (Ark) You don't want kisses? (Joe) Laura? (Allen) You never saw the last video we shot!

A: Just do it! Release the last one to see response!

Q: (Allen) We filmed one that she hasn't even seen. (DD) Well, let's see it! (Allen) And that's the one we talked about that we'd just put up for free... (A***) She's never happy with them, though. (Keit) Let others decide. (Joe) We're the viewing public. (Keit) And people will be really happy! (L) I feel like a dog and pony show. (Joe) There'll be no dogs and ponies. (Allen) Well, dogs... (Ark) Don't be selfish, honey. (L) Selfish?! (Ark) Yes! Not letting other people have what you have? You have something to communicate, and this is the best way to communicate. (L) I'm tired all of a sudden. (Joe) Do you wanna change the topic? (L) You have another topic? (Joe) There's that question that you wanted to ask for the people on the forum about soul smashing? (L) Oh, the soul smashing! Can you frame a question around it? Or you, you're the expert on that topic Keit. Make a question. (Keit) Well, basically is what I said was close...?

A: Pretty darn accurate. An example of "getting smarter!"

Q: (Joe) Does that mean Keit?

A: Yes

Q: (Joe) What was your theory? (L) She was talking about Illion's Darkness over Tibet and the descending spiral and that it's a choice and you have to...

A: We couldn't have explained it any better!

Q: (Scottie) Did you write about this on the forum? (Keit) Yeah. (Scottie) How did I miss that?? (A***) Yeah. (Keit) I have some more to say about this. (Joe) So that was about trying to smash all these souls back into primal matter, was that it?

A: Yes

Q: (Allen) Could you just explain it, because I didn't read it. (Keit) What I said is that... I brought this in quotes and quoted from Darkness Over Tibet. The author mentions that there are two possibilities in development: upward and downward. And there is a possibility of losing one's soul, but it should be a conscious decision, it's a choice. And it can't be taken by force. (L) But they can make you choose by wearing you out. (Keit) Exactly, and I gave my personal example where I felt that traumatic experiences in our lives kind of manipulates us into choosing the downward development. And we basically choose something that is against our own level of being. And it's so traumatic for the soul, that it twists the soul and puts it in a downward position. The eventual outcome of this event is basically smashing the soul, even if the final smashing event is relative small. And that's why there is so much suffering and pathology in the world, where they force and manipulate souls into choosing. (L) Against their own nature. (PL) And Illion said that the worse thing for a human being is the sin against their own soul. (Keit) And sinning against the soul is going against your own level or nature of being. So, like narcissistic tendencies and everything, that's why for our own sake we need to clean ourselves. (DD) Is this why they've injected so many drugs into the culture to just weaken people?

A: Yes and remember also transmarginal inhibition principles.

Q: (L) One of those principles is that even strong dogs that could not be broken in ordinary ways, if they subjected them to physical trauma like surgery, or illness, or something like that, that that would weaken them to the point where they could be turned. So torture is also part of this process.

A: Yes

Q: (L) And we live now in a culture of torture which is basically a soul-smashing culture.

A: Yes

Q: (L) So there are souls that are being twisted and deformed to the point where they will... I mean, a lot of these people think that they will be going to heaven because they're imposing their god's will on other people, and they think that whatever they have to do to bring in the rule of their distorted version of Jesus Christ on Earth or whatever - ya know, these fundies - that basically they themselves are putting themselves in the position of being soul smashed because they are completely going against not only the teachings of Christ, but also against their own natures. I think many of them really mean well, but they have been so gradually and so incrementally twisted by pathological individuals in positions of power and in high positions in churches, and pathological individuals that create doctrines and theologies that are twisted, that they are essentially agreeing to the sale of their own souls to the devil. (Joe) I wonder if it extends to people who aren't directly involved in it, but are just ordinary members of the population whose minds are so twisted that in their own minds they sanction it or they agree with it. Even when they're faced with the facts, they're not being lied to so much, but they realize the whole thing about torture and the CIA and torture camps...

A: Silence in the face of "evil" is equal to participation unless there is a good reason for the silence that serves a higher goal.

Q: (Joe) That's really interesting because it kind of explains the whole debate over torture, and how they've been trying to get people to accept torture. And more and more facts coming out about the reality of the CIA having tortured and trying to twist that around to get people to accept that as something that is conscionable.

A: Acceptance of torture is the "mark of the beast."

Q: (DD) That's why there's the popularity of television shows like "24". (Joe) Conditioning people. (DD) It's wildly popular. (Joe) I mean, you get all these people who are faced with the real life torture of another human being, and they actually cheer it on. And if that's the same as participation, then these people are all being put on that downward spiral.

A: Remember the "lake of fire" in the Book of Revelation? Remember that those who live by the sword will die by the sword?

Q: (Keit) What's "lake of fire"? (Allen) In Revelation where all those who didn't accept Christ would be thrown in... (Joe) Hell, basically.

A: Soul smashing.

Q: (L) Creepy. (Allen) I'm thinking about all those people who don't necessarily think torture is okay, but they still... like they abhor torture but they're still kind of accepting it because it's necessary, or maybe they just try to not think about it at all. (Joe) Well, people who think it's necessary... (L) They're already lost. They've already bought it. I mean, the scientific evidence is that if you need information or whatever, if there's some justifiable reason, that is NOT the way to get it. The records of the inquisition which are extensive - I mean, tens of thousands of people were tortured and confessed to the most outrageous lies just to get it over with. Just get it over with and let me die! I'll tell you anything you want me to say! And they confessed to flying on broomsticks, to mating with devils, to dancing naked in the moonlight, to kissing each other's backsides... I mean, you name it, and they confessed to it just to get it to stop. And it was ALL horse-hockey! (Allen) And I'm sorry, even if scientific evidence doesn't show that, even if we said, "Oh yeah, torture actually works for getting information," you're still torturing human beings! It's still abhorrent. It's like, how can you do that?! (Keit) The thought I had is that pathology, what is done to children of narcissistic families, it's like torture. (L) It IS torture! (Keit) And what happens is kind of like it poisons them and basically allows them to accept the torture environment. Because they already experienced it, they were like touched by evil. (L) Torturing another human being to force them to say or do something that is against their principles is wrong no matter what your perspective. They are, each individual, entitled to their principles, to their ideas, to their politics whatever. And if you want to change that, or if you think that there is something about their point of view that is threatening to you, then the way to change that is by discourse, by education, by sharing information and data. NOT by trying to force them to go against what is rightfully theirs, at the soul level, by torture! To try to force somebody like that is basically a kind of soul killing of its own. Jesus even said in the New Testament that whoever is a stumbling block to the least of these, it would be better for him that he had never been born. And when he said, "never been born", that's almost like a way of saying his soul is going to be smashed. It's just really astonishing. (DD) What happens to a soul after it is smashed?

A: Primal matter. Start the cycle over. Millions or billions of years acquiring consciousness.

Q: (DD) So you start out as like a hydrogen atom or something. (Joe) You become a rock. (PL) Is there a link between a “smashing year” that was announced by the Cs early this year? It was mentioned, and now we're talking about soul smashing... (L) Well, it's kind of interesting because this insight that I had about soul-smashing, when I woke up that particular morning is that that is what they are trying to do: they actually think that they can smash souls and turn them into primal matter. And it was such a shocking thought to me, and just now I'm realizing that this insight came through in the year they called a "smashing year". This insight kind of came smashing through into my consciousness - to even think of that; that's almost unthinkable. (PL) If they smash the soul of human beings, then aren't they losing because we are their cattle? So it's more like that... (Joe) The whole thing starts again...

A: It isn't going to happen to all.

Q: (Keit) Oh, that's what I wanted to ask: Is it going to happen on an individual level, or to everyone? (L) Yeah, so it would be individual.

A: Yes

Far from opposing torture even if they could, many journalists, politicians, and citizens are on board. After all:
The real war, as you know, is on normal people via proxies
Session 7 September 2013

Q: (Atriedes) So, cutting out the evil is more important than cutting out the calories. (L) Pretty much! (Andromeda) So, there's no intent of pushing people to a revolution with some of this revolution hype and drama...?

A: Sure! It will make billions for some people and others plan to come in and set up shop on the ashes. But as we just asked: When have their plans for results actually worked as they present them?

Q: (Ark) I think there is another reason. You start the war, and then you let some kinds of these rebels to have access to nuclear weapons. Can you imagine how much more Homeland Security you will be able to have then if you let all these "Islamist rebels" get these weapons? Give your enemy advanced weapons, pretend you are helping them to get rid of Assad, and then later, "Oh, we didn't know they are terrorists, but now they have access to these weapons! We have to close our borders! We have to control everything!" (Andromeda) It's creepy, some of these reports of Homeland Security making these huge orders of hollow point bullets, and building these compounds with fences... It looks like they're kind of getting ready for some revolution or something. (Perceval)I wondered if those reports are just...

A: The real war, as you know, is on normal people via proxies.
