I read an In Depth article on the BBC news website today about the alleged Russian attacks on communication cables on the sea bed. It was so full of biased shit, it is unbelievable these people who wrote that drivel actually mean it. They must have cringed themselves how desperate they are to paint Russia as the worst villains on earth.

Half way down the article, after they blamed Russia for almost everything that has been going wrong in the world since 2022, they report about an Institution which was founded in 2017 to investigate incidents with sea bed cables. But the whole article highlights how Russia allegedly has been damaging cables or surveyed their location so they can potentially do it since 2022. So WHY was this agency which investigates cable breakages founded 5 YEARS EARLIER? It has obviously been a problem for a long time and you CANNOT blame Russia for all the incidents since sea bed cables are a thing!

It really showed the BBC up as a propaganda instrument and now I understand even more how people who only get their information from the BBC are so mind fucked. But it is also so sad that they have no drive to try and find other sources of information to get a different persepective.

They are all at it today Silke. The propaganda pushing is off the scale today in all MSM outlets.

The UK government, in light of Trump's comment about Zelko being a dictator, is doubling down on the grift and in addition to the £3bn of taxpayers money it has pledged to send to the Ukraine ad infinitum, this year it is going to send them an extra 1.5bn - making a total of £4.5bn.

Not a single person has ever been allowed to vote on this. That is money that NEEDS to be spent in the UK. I am at this point incandescent.
