Now on that same page...

 ...go to Tracking and type in GMD2179231.

Now go to the bottom of the page and click on any of the links.

They are dummy links. That was pointed out to me as a reason to be very, very skeptical of a company that one knows nothing about. But, it says military delivery. They must know what they are doing right? Go ahead click on them. I just did to make sure nothing had changed and they didn't open to any page other than the one they appear on.

This is why I believe there is a significant party behind these attacks on Americans and their generous spirt.

Go ahead take a look.

A six week retirement. Can football ever get by without Tom Brady?

It looks like the first round pick for the Bucs is Tom Brady. (click here) Anyone find out how much money it took to bring him back? A piece of the franchise, maybe?

Tom Brady isn’t finished after all. (click here)

Just more than a month after he announced plans to retire, the seven-time Super Bowl-champion quarterback announced on Sunday that he actually will return to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers for the 2022 season, his 23rd in the NFL.

He announced the news on social media with a statement that read, “These past two months I’ve realized my place is still on the field and not in the stands. That time will come. But it’s not now. I love my teammates, and I love my supportive family. They make it all possible. I’m coming back for my 23rd season in Tampa. Unfinished business LFG.”...



I believe International Women's Day was Tuesday, March 85th, yes?

USA House of Representatives Speaker of the House had a really great event for Women's History Month. Is there a grandmother anywhere in the USA that doesn't deserve to be recognized for their patriot spirit and contribution to the country? 

Hi

The world has gotten to be a strange and unpredictable place. If it's climate it is a global pandemic. If it isnt' a global pandemic, it is Russia being stupid. I can't believe Putin did this. It is so upsetting to realize how completely out of control his rule of Russia has become. 

Putin's place in all the violence in Ukraine and the deaths only goes to prove no man should have nuclera power at his fingertips forever. 

What is so shocking about the invasion into Ukraine is the reckless abandon of all these civilian attacks and deaths. Insurgents will happen even if the entire country was emptied in time for the first tank to roll across the border. There is no military strategy that permits this level of destruction or a kill at will order. I don't understand why this has been so bloody and damaging to families. There is no excuse. This was about the worst insult to human life the world has witnessed in a long time. 

This is a story out of California of the depth to which the American Ukranian community is feeling these attacks by Russia, Putin in particular. It proves that love of family runs deep and the willingness to be a part of survival runs deeper, especially when there are children involved.

There was no debate. No wavering. No pleading. (click here) 

The day the Russians invaded Ukraine, the Rev. Petro Dyachok knew that his wife, Natalya , had only one choice: to go back to their homeland. Their 31-year-old daughter, a registered nurse raising her two children there, refused to leave her husband who was preparing to fight. Natalya needed to be with them.

“I said, ‘I can’t close your Ukrainian heart’,” said Dyachok, 55, “and in one day I had a ticket for her.”

As images fill the news of millions of women and children fleeing Ukraine — and the horrors of some young families not making it out alive — others like Natalya Dyachok are defying the dangers and heading in.

Her husband wanted to join her, but his congregations in Santa Clara and in San Francisco are struggling with their own fears for relatives caught in Ukraine and needed him, too....

100,000 children orphaned by Putin's war secluded in basements in Kyiv.

About 5000 of those Kyiv orphans are disabled. The shelling has cut off all routes out of the city.

Tikva, which means hope in Hebrew, evacuated 300 children, 80 staff and 150 families from its orphanage in Odessa, Ukraine – first to Moldova and then to Romania.

Russia's invasion of Ukraine has led to the fastest-growing refugee crisis in Europe since World War II, according to the United Nations.

On a night two weeks ago (click here) in southwest Ukraine, children inside a Jewish orphanage felt the ground shake and watched lights eerily flicker.

Bombs were falling just a mile from their home, shattering their safe world and sending them fleeing into the darkness.

The children, most in their pajamas and without shoes, rushed out of the orphanage and squeezed onto buses to make their way to the Moldova border as the Russian military launched its invasion of Ukraine. The journey, which eventually took the children to Romania, left them in tears and confusion: Where would they call home now?...


The Russians are kidnapping mayors of cities in Ukraine. The mayors of these cities are not militia leaders as they were under Yanukovych.  There is no reason to torture them so much as hold them as well fed POWs.

Livi is where peace is supposed to be enforced. It is also on the way to Poland. NATO needs to be at readiness when the Russians decide to enter Poland to prevent supplies and escape routes from reaching the Ukrainian people.

Mukachevo, Ukraine - At least 35 people were killed and 134 injured (click here) early Sunday when a barrage of Russian missiles slammed into a military facility in western Ukraine about 15 miles from the border with Poland, a NATO member. Separately, Ukrainian officials said an American journalist, Brent Renaud, was fatally shot while reporting outside of Kyiv.

The Yavoriv military range near Lviv, also known as the International Peacekeeping and Security Center, has for years been used for exercises by NATO troops and Ukrainians, with Americans on-site as recently as February. Members of the Florida Army National Guard trained there with Ukrainian forces as recently as February, during the buildup to the Russian invasion.

The airstrike came a day after the Kremlin warned that it viewed Western weapons shipments as “legitimate targets,” heightening the possibility of a direct conflict with the West. White House national security adviser Jake Sullivan said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that the bombing did not come as a surprise given U.S. warnings that Russia planned to attack all of Ukraine. He reiterated that U.S. forces would not be fighting Russian troops in Ukraine but that they would “defend every inch of NATO territory.”...

When removing eastern Ukraine and Crimea, the Russian gains are minimal. Russia has been assaulting Ukriane since 2014 with it's weapons, so the idea Ukraine needs to stop receiving munitions from anyone to assist in it's defense is at the very least a double standard. Russia would say it is just good business, therefore, same here.



Ukraine is not only dangerous, it is deadly. It is a no go zone.

We have lost journalists before in Iraq because they pushed the boundaries too far. Well known boundaries as defined by the Geneva Conventions are not applied by Russia. Putin believes the international order and laws hem him in. He feels hemmed in because the Russian military is unable to fight, so much as kill and only kill in large swaths of area. A missile serves as the best Russian soldier. His conventional forces of men and machines are not capable of doing sincere textbook warfare.

Russia's method to war is nothing short of barbaric.

March 13, 2022

Brent Renaud (click here) is an American film director and winner of the Peabody and DuPont Awards.

An American journalist (click here) was killed and another wounded by Russian forces in Irpen near the Ukrainian capital of Kyiv, the Kyiv Region Police head said Sunday.

The killed journalist was identified by Ukrainian police as Brent Renaud, a 51-year-old journalist, filmmaker and US citizen. While Ukrainian authorities initially identified Renaud as a The New York Times correspondent, he was not in Ukraine reporting on behalf of The Times.

"We are deeply saddened to hear of Brent Renaud's death. Brent was a talented filmmaker who had contributed to The New York Times over the years," read a statement from the outlet. "Though he had contributed to The Times in the past (most recently in 2015), he was not on assignment for any desk at The Times in Ukraine. Early reports that he worked for Times circulated because he was wearing a Times press badge that had been issued for an assignment many years ago."...

There is no god in Russia.

Russia is a rouge country. They have used phosphorus before. If there is any kind of weaponry banned Putin doesn't care.

Putin uses other kinds of incendiary weapons, such as thermite. When the US banned incidiary weapons on civilians, the UN drafted a treaty. Russia signed that treaty. Russia likes to appear to be a benevolent country when in fact it is a rouge country that disregards international order.

The communists like to see "stable states," but, if it serves their purpose to destroy and kill, they will do it.

The evidence about Putin is that he is a maniacal leader of an unwilling army.

This article from the Wall Street Journal could not be more wrong. The evidence points to a president of Russia that is out of control in every aspect of his hatred. He is rolling into Ukraine without the knowledge or consent of the Russian people and/or his cabinet.

Putin has been preparing for this invasion for decades, ever since Crimea and eastern Ukraine fell victim to Putin's manipulations. They no more belong to Russia then the moon is made of cheese. There is no evil genius here looking to profit from nuclear reactor rods. The soldiers that took over Chernobyl has not a clue about how to run a nuclear power plant. The people working to maintain some semblance of order at Chernobyl are now POWs. The same is true of Zaporizhzhia. 

Putin has only one thing in mind and that is to carry out his invasion to satisfy his politics and seek revenge against every post Soviet state for betraying the Soviet Union and not reconstituting it. There is little here that spells genius for the Russian economy. If anything it is the opposite. 

Putin will read this artical and pat himself on the back for unknowingly being so brilliant. He will adapt the article to his ideology and call himself a genius for reading a Wall Street Journal essay. Putin is not an economic engine that powers masterfully the Russian economy. He is nothing like that. There is no evidence to support this article and the author needs to realize he is pumping sunshine up Putin's pant leg. DO YOUR RESEARCH before printing such trash as this.

An unappreciated motive (click here) for Russia’s invasion of Ukraine is that Kyiv was positioning itself to break from its longtime Russian nuclear suppliers, as the U.S. was encroaching on Russia’s largest nuclear export market.

At the beginning of the conflict, Russian tanks rolled through the Chernobyl site, kicking up dust and increasing radiation levels. Eight days later, the invaders seized the six-unit nuclear power plant in the town of Zaporizhzhya, 700 miles away....

It was never real. The hope for global peace with inclusion of Russia in the highest levels of economic growth and peace was a ruse.

During the entire decade of the 2010s, Russia was double faced. One face was a country which wanted peace and economic stability and the other face that no one saw in the real world wanted to destroy everything that was no Russian. 

The idea Putin is willing to turn all of Ukraine to rubble and kill any human being in reach of missiles and soldiers' tanks is only to prove how deeply Putin's hate runs of those that abandoned the Soviet Union for autonomy. He hates them. And to think they left of the EU and NATO only fills him with more hate. Every country that is a post Soviet state was supposed to remain loyal to the Soviet Union. Putin hates eveyrone. 

To make it clear as to the premediation of Russia's threat, there is currently a Russian anti-satellite military apparatus (click here) orbiting Earth for one purposse and that is to destroy The West's ability fo function it's military. That was November 2021. It was launched because Putin knew he would do this to Ukraine and he hopes beyond Ukraine.

I leave Moscow angry and sad. (click here)

It feels like a passage out of darkness to light, but left behind are friends trapped in one man's tunnel vision.

Russian President Vladimir Putin isn't just destroying Ukraine, but two nations, condemning Russians to an isolation they didn't necessarily choose.

Over the past couple of months while I've been reporting from Moscow, I've met many people who have been horrified, shocked and numbed by Putin's wanton aggression. Some of them believed him when he said he wouldn't invade Ukraine. Some even knew players in the Kremlin inner circle and thought they understood the President's red lines, but now that trust is blown and they fear he has no limits at all....

This was in interesting statement from a former wife of a Russian oligarch. I believe the sanctions against them are more than appropriate.

...Zhukova, (click here) who shares two children with (oligarch) Abramovich, told the New York Post and other outlets that the transfer was part of their divorce settlement. She also condemned the “brutal and horrific invasion,” telling the New York Post: “As someone born in Russia, I unequivocally condemn these acts of war, and I stand in solidarity with the Ukrainian people as well as with the millions of Russians who feel the same way.”...

The Super yachts need to auctioned and sold transferring title to the buyer and the proceeds to go to Ukrainian relief efforts.

 

There were 'victims or casualties after Erbil blasts' Kurdish Health Minister Saman Barzanji said.

They are copying Russia's pattern, a barrage of missiles or rockets, etc. So much for the Iran deal. Putin is cutting everyone of the rouge countries loose by his bizarre attack on Ukraine. They all have to be watched now. The Shi'ites have no use for the Kurds regardless of their ability to fight and repel Daesh.

2 March 2022

Multiple rockets (click here) have smashed into a US Army base and a Kurdish news channel office in Erbil, northern Iraq.

At least five 'Iranian-produced ballistic missiles' hit the city in the early hours of Sunday, Governor Omed Khoshnaw confirmed.

He said it was not clear whether the missiles were targeting the American consulate at the site, or the airport in the city...

Erbil (click here) is not a run down city. What does Iran think it's doing? Putin is disrupting world order. Trump killed generals (click here). The UN stated it was illegal. Why isn't he up on charges? I guess the barrage of missiles are a pay back. I guess.

It is my estimation Israel needs to be on it's toes because Assad is probably getting busy. Look for trouble with Hezbollah as well. Lebanon has been a bit under seige from Hezbollah. Don't for get Hezbollah is in the drug trade and also in Venezuela.

I am sure satellites are keeping an eye on North Korea. During Trump's time, the satellites were blocked over Russia and China. It is time to assess their orbit.

The communists are doing their level best to insight a world war. A reaction from the Iraq leadership would be a good idea.

You know, Daesh is still out there even if just in diffuse populations. There is a group in Afghanistan. If iran is going to be this stupid about churning up the Middle East, it will provide Daesh an opportunity to reconstitute. 

The US State Department has a lot on their hands, but, a serious conversation with Iran about what they believe is justice for their general would provide insight to their grievances.

Ask Space X instead.

American astronaut (click here) Mark Vande Hei, currently aboard in the International Space Station high above the Earth, may have his planned return to the planet in jeopardy due to escalating tensions with Russia over its invasion of Ukraine.

Vande Hei, who has now been in space for nearly a year after his mission was extended last September, said then that he was to return from the over 350 day stay in space around March 2022...

Russia is never in a hurry to do anything.

Krikalev on the International Space Station in 2005

Kirkalev (click here) went to work on the Mir Space Station on May 18, 1991 and didn't come hom

until March 1992. He went to work as a Soviet, and returned as a Russian — because, on December 26, 1991, the Soviet Union dissolved and Krikalev became a cosmonaut without a country.

Krikalev, fellow cosmonaut Anatoly Artsebarsky, and British astronaut Helen Sharman climbed into their Soyuz capsule at the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan on May 18, 1991. At the time, Kazakhstan was still one of the “Soviet Socialist Republics.”...

...Krikalev’s days in the spring of 1991 were filled with exercise and conducting multiple EVAs to service the Mir space station. He had trained for, and planned on, staying aboard Mir for five months before returning to the Soviet Union and his native Leningrad. He would wind up staying in space for almost a year, returning to the new Russian Federation and a city returned to its name before the Bolshevik revolution, St. Petersburg....

...Though Gorbachev retained power, the country was economically and politically weakened and by December, the republics began to splinter into the Commonwealth of Independent States, an effort spearheaded by Belarus, Ukraine, and Russia, and signed by nine other former republics.

Then, on Christmas Day 1991, Gorbachev resigned as president of the Soviet Union, which effectively dissolved it altogether....

...Kirkaliv was less concerned with the political implications of this, Lewis says, than its implications for him personally. “He was more concerned about prolonging his mission and the impact that would have on his physical health,” she says. Bone and muscle mass deteriorate with time in space, and “he had trained for five months; he had not trained for a year-long mission.”...

...These people were still on the job, very dedicated to it,” Lewis says. Whatever successor state would arise in place of the former Soviet Union, “they recognized the need for the national prestige, to maintain the space station.”...

...Finally relieved from duty, Krikalev returned to Earth in March 1992 a severely weakened man needing assistance to walk on the snow-covered soil of the Republic of Kazakhstan after 311 days aboard the Mir space station....

Foreign nationals have died in Putin's political war. There was a report about an American Ukrainian man trying to reach his wife when the war broke out. He learned she was dead along with his two sons in a picture put on line. She and her two sons were gunned down by a Russian soldier for absolutely no reason at all, except, she was Ukrainian.

The Geneva Conventions demand justice.

This is what Putin will do until the end of time if he can manage it.

Ukraine has to have the ability of ending the seige by Russia. In order to do that it has to invade Russia, because, this is exactly what Russia will do until it can't anymore, through loss of supplies and/or manpower to produce the bombs. And if this won't work, then he will move on to bigger and bigger missiles until Ukraine is nothing but a pile of scrap metal.

As of right now, Ukraine has beaten Putin. In the first few weeks there are over 10,000 dead Russian soldiers. It took 11 years for the USA to lose over 50,000 in Vietnam. For all the time we were in Iraq the total soldiers dead came to less than 5000. That was soldiers, not people.

Putin has lost this war. He should surrender and leave. This is a political war based in propaganda and fallacy. If Putin was interested in making the world safer from an errant Ukraine it could have been accomplished through the United Nations long before a tank crossed borders. He didn't follow conventional methods nor peaceful ones because this is a willingness by Putin to kill human beings for his political propaganda at home. He has no intention of ever stepping down from power. 

For any significant power in the world to believe this is not out of control and that Russia has been defeated is adding to the genocide.

Lviv, Ukraine -Russia’s airplanes and artillery widened their assault (click here) on Ukraine on Friday, striking airfields in the west and a major industrial hub in the east, as Moscow’s forces tried to regroup from recent losses and their onslaught fast reduced crowded cities to rubble.

American defense officials offered an assessment of the Russian air campaign, estimating that invading pilots are averaging 200 sorties a day, compared with five to 10 for Ukrainian forces, which are focusing more on surface-to-air missiles, rocket-propelled grenades and drones to take out Russian aircraft.

New commercial satellite images appeared to capture artillery firing on residential areas between Russian forces and the capital. The images from Maxar Technologies showed muzzle flashes and smoke from the big guns, as well as impact craters and burning homes in the town of Moschun, outside Kyiv, the company said....

The big issue this week with the Flint Water Crisis is that all those charged with crimes came out to agree with the former Governor Snyder they would "take the 5th" at any trial.

So!

The prosecution isn't reliant on the testimony of the accused. The cases against them stand on their own.

It is just a publicity stunt to contaminate and intimidate the jury pool

THERE ARE DEAD PEOPLE, SNYDER. FORGET ABOUT THAT. A trial can bring their lives back to prove how full of hatred Snyder was when he diverted the water. 

I am wondering though, when the people of Flint were dying and troubled with illness and fear for their own water coming out of the tap, did Snyder like it? Did he sort of chuckle? It took an entire year for the problem to receive attention and that was only after Rachel Maddow outed the gross negligence of Snyder and his administration. During that year did Snyder smirk at the idea of Flint drinking poisoned water?

Supply Chain Issues

Yes this is a Russia jet shot down. But, that is not the problem. The problem is that it crashed into State Scientific Production Enterprise  Kommunar Corporation (click here).

The Ghost is fast becoming a symbol of resistance against the massive, but stalled, invasion. Pictured :A member of the Ukrainian Territorial Defence Forces walks near remains of the Russian Sukhoi Su-25 assault aircraft crashed into the State Scientific Production Enterprise «Kommunar Corporation» in Ukraine's second-biggest city of Kharkiv on March 8

"The Ghost" is now considered a profound addition to the Ukraine fight for freedom. The Ghost has been considered a myth. The Ukraine military is wondering if it is. The Ghost is beinging credited with ten destroyed Russian jets. He is stated to have been heard stating, 'Hello occupiers, I'm coming for your soul!'

We (State Scientific Production Enterprise  Kommunar Corporation) are specialized in output of control systems for rockets-carriers and space objects that is proved with high technologies and high qualification of personnel.

Every company in Ukraine that contributed to peaceful trade no longer can supply those commodities. As Putin destroys Ukraine, he is also sponsoring his own special sanctions. These companies may not be able to supply their products no matter what they are.

...The EU is Ukraine's largest trading partner, (click here) accounting for more than 40% of its trade in 2019. Ukraine is the 18th trading of the EU accounting for around 1,1% of EU's total trade. Total trade between EU and Ukraine reached €43,3 bn in 2019.

Ukraine exports to the EU amounted to €19.1 bn in 2019. The main Ukraine exports are raw materials (iron, steel, mining products, agricultural products), chemical products and machinery. This is a considerably increase of 48,5% since 2016.

The EU exports to Ukraine amounted to over €24.2 bn in 2019. The main EU exports to Ukraine include machinery and transport equipment, chemicals, and manufactured goods. EU exports to Ukraine have been subject to a similar impressive increase since 2016 of 48,8%.

The number of Ukrainian companies exporting to the EU has increased at an impressive rate, from approximately 11,700 in 2015 to over 14,500 in 2019....'

There will also be a decline in grants and donations. No exceptions. The organizations that have received LAUNDERED MONEY from Russian oligarchs may be faced with an investigation as to why they accepted laundered money. The oligarches don't pay in rubles, they pay in global currencies. Considering the exchange rate of the Russian Ruble where did all this wealth come from?

...Leaders of cultural, (click here) educational and medical institutions, along with a chief rabbi, had sent a letter urging the United States not to impose sanctions on the Russian, a major donor, saying it would hurt Israel and the Jewish world. Days later, Mr. Abramovich and Yad Vashem, the Holocaust memorial, announced a partnership that a spokesman for the organization said included a pledge of at least $10 million....

Any donations by oligarches should not be considered as part of an organizations income, but, as their liability. It is time that organizations scale back to a reasonable size since the money they received from oligarches is all laundered.

Sometimes organizations issue grants, loans and scholarships that benefit their interests. That is probably the initial place they can cut back on spending right now. The future would mean a reassessment of their goals and income.

Russia is a rouge state.

Nothing Russia states is credible anymore. It's warring tactics are crude. It's nuclear science is outrageously dangerous. The worse North Korea does is blow up a mountain from the inside. This is a real eye opener about Russia. The country is willing to be blind to the truth and allow themselves to believe there is nothing but racists outside the Russian borders.

The Russian athletes are pawns on an international stage with orders to perform to perfection even if dopping is involved only to allow the officiating authority left to accommodate it. Russia has no credibility anymore. There is nothing but corruption in those borders. Corruption that not only reaches to the highest officials in the country, but, begins with the president.

Russia is a problem now. The world needs to decide how to deal with it.

Vienna, Austria: 

The Chernobyl nuclear power plant is no longer transmitting data to the UN's atomic watchdog, the agency said Tuesday, as it voiced concern for staff working under Russian guard at the Ukrainian facility.


The one global authority on everything nuclear now has absolutely no data from Chernobyl. Lord only knows what he will do to any other nuclear facility in Ukraine. I hate to say this, but, I don't think The West can stay out of this much longer. The Ukrainian military has and is accomplishing a remarkable feat against the Russians, but, this? This is a problem of a different nature.


Russia can begin by explaining what the detected radiation spike was immediately after the invasion. Russia also needs to hand over the radiation badges the personnel are wearing to know if they have been exposed and need to leave for treatment. Russia does not have a good track record on anything nuclear. They have buried nuclear scientists in multiples after each accident and the world doesn't have confidence in Russia taking control of Chernobyl. You don't hand car keys to one that can't drive.

On February 24, (click here) Russia invaded Ukraine and seized the defunct Chernobyl plant.

The daughter of a overnight staffer (click here) being held hostage in Chernobyl has warned the plant is being held by Russian forces who 'have no clue about nuclear security protocols' after Kyiv's intelligence agency claimed Putin's forces are preparing to fake a terror attack at the site to try to blackmail the world. 

Natalia Ruemmele has warned that staffers who usually work 12 hour shifts have been maintaining the nuclear plant at gunpoint for more than two weeks since Russian forces seized control of the site as she pleaded with Moscow to agree to a ceasefire and allow a shift change. 

Ukrainian intelligence earlier warned that Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered his troops to create a 'man-made catastrophe' at Chernobyl which he plans to blame on Ukrainian 'saboteurs' in order to justify further escalating his war against the ex-Soviet country....

This is Jim Dandy wonderful. Do we know if these facilities are still standing? If the facilities are breached what was inside and what happens when it is exposed to fresh air? What are the inventories like? Does the WHO have inventories of what was housed in Ukraine?

No, I don't think Ukraine would destroy the labs and poison their own people and soldiers.

March 11, 2022

...The World Health Organization (WHO) (click here) has called for Ukraine to destroy all high-threat pathogens in the country’s laboratories to preempt any leakages of toxins that could spread disease, Reuters reported.

“WHO has strongly recommended to the Ministry of Health in Ukraine and other responsible bodies to destroy high-threat pathogens to prevent any potential spills,” the organization told Reuters in a statement.

Russia’s incursion into Ukraine and its bombardment of cities has increased the risk that disease-causing pathogens could escape such laboratories, if any of these buildings sustain damage, Reuters reported, citing biosecurity experts....

Ukrainians are simply magnificent people.
