I have been waiting for the Aussie Cossack to make a video on these lines for some time, and now he has. Well done, Simeon. You have produced a Master statement containing nothing I could not agree with. Thank you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SKYVM3sV93s
This Nail Can Never Be Driven Home Too Much Or Too Often
The 'rules-based international order' is finished. It died, never to rise again, impaled on the pitchfork of Russian determination and ingenuity, and the concurrent rise of the Eurasian led multi-polar world order - which is based on fairer principles and peaceful cooperation - at the end of 2022. The new year of 2023 sees that... Continue Reading →
Russia’s “Finest Hour”
God Bless William Schryver (yes, I'm even willing to go that far in my appraisal and approval of his most recent writing). Listen to this, from the latest written words of that man...

It’s Time to Get Real
...at least as real as you can, from an armchair. Time to feel something of what it's about. Time to work out how THEY feel. Those men who put it all on the line every minute of every day, for their country, and countrymen, and women. It's not for me to say but, in order... Continue Reading →

“Another Year Over, And What Have We Done?”
As I write this, where I am it is 01/01/2023 (one of the few dates of that format which can be read correctly by Americans). The Sun has set on 2022. Thank whatever goodness there is, for that. But where does that leave us? Have we a future? Will 2023 be any different? Will there... Continue Reading →
‘Europe and America have gone mad’
For those who have big sticks, it seems necessary for them to be waved in belligerent manner. For those who possess the biggest stick of all, it seems sufficient to simply let that be known. Hence why Russia does not need to threaten the west with the use of its powerful nuclear/conventional weapon systems but... Continue Reading →
Add This to Your Pronouns, Freaks!
So... do you identify with this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xu0GPo7GkPk Well, kind of figures if you do. Most folk would, today, in this freakshow of western so-called civilisation - which is falling apart more each day that passes. What you say? You couldn't watch that video? Not surprising.

Not Something Else
