A destroyed Ukrainian tank
Sunny Peters – IBT Sept 1, 2022
- Ukraine’s forces have broken through the first line of defense with strikes carried out in eight directions
- The U.S. had urged Kyiv to keep the operation limited in both its objectives and its geography
- Germany’s Chief of Defense General Eberhard Zorn warned that the West must not underestimate Moscow
After weeks of pounding Russian troops with high-precision rockets and drones, the Ukrainian forces launched a long-awaited counteroffensive Monday to take back territories in the Kherson region. However, amid reports that the operation is getting bogged down, Ukraine said its operation to take back Kherson is going as planned but cautioned that “there will be no quick wins.”
Much of the Kherson region, which borders the Black Sea, was seized by Russian forces during the initial days of the invasion. Media reports said Ukraine’s forces have broken through the first line of defense with simultaneous strikes carried out in eight directions.
However, a report in Al Jazeera, quoting local resident Pantelis Boubouras who is Greece’s honourary consul in Kherson and runs a construction business in Odesa said that after the initial success the counteroffensive had bogged down. “The second line isn’t falling easily. There are 25,000-30,000 soldiers, they’ve been there five months, and are very well equipped and dug in.”
The Guardian reported a senior adviser to Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky as saying that Ukraine’s counteroffensive to reclaim Kherson has neither stalled nor failed. Oleksiy Arestovych in a video message posted to Telegram early Thursday morning said:
“The fact that we have not taken Kherson yet does not mean that the operation in the south has stalled or failed. It is carried out in a planned manner. We destroy enemy logistics, air defense systems, fuel and ammunition depots… There will be no quick wins. Initially, a strategy was taken to systematically grind Putin’s army. It is long, so there is a lot of work to be done.”
Meanwhile, other paid mouthpieces that makeup the Western MSM are sounding similarly cautious, albeit from a somewhat different perspective:

Commentary – Sept 2, 2022
With little more than RT reports about the UN “thanking Russia” for protecting International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) inspectors who visited the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant, it’s not difficult to conclude that the Ukrainian counteroffensive may have indeed ground to a halt.
After all, if the Ukrainians had indeed made any progress we would be hearing all about it from the Western MSM.
Instead, we are only seeing reports like the above, which seem to suggest that the long awaited Ukrainian “advance” may have been slowed, if not been entirely halted.
From the above coverage we can also conclude that the Western MSM is acting as little more than a mouthpiece for the regime in Kiev and their backers in the West. Why else would they devote so little coverage to the dramatic events around the Zaporozhye nuclear plant?
In case you didn’t know, nearly sixty Ukrainian Special Forces landed in two speedboats near the Zaporozhye nuclear power plant while IAEC were enroute to the facility. They were reportedly spotted and taken out by Russian helicopter gunships.
Beyond RT reports, the Western MSM has strangely silent about this.
In fact, Western networks now seem to be blocking all RT’s coverage.
Why? The fact that they are now systematically blocking Russian media suggests that the West has something to hide. Could that be because the promised Ukrainian counteroffensive has indeed ground to a halt and they would rather we didn’t know?
Whatever has happened, we cannot expect the Western mainstream media to inform us honestly about what has occurred. Ed.
the covid scam is a real holocaust on people
not a fake one like the jews talk about

Ohh.. Come on .. Just heard from “respected” sources, that V Putin & Russia are capitulating unconditionally to Zelensky’s Ukraine ??
Joe “Let’s Go Brandon” just confirmed on CNNNBCCBCBBCABCMSNBC…

Tyson Fury can’t be bothered to fight Usyk unless he gets 500 million pounds, and it is the same with these other Ukrainians except that some Jews get the money. In boxing they only get most of it, with TV channels. Maybe my Nazi period ended up here, with the Jews and their Ukrainians. When it’s wrong, it ends badly
WHAT IS BLACK PRIVELIDGE ?
Between the first and second world wars on the People of Germany
The Catholic Church in both countries ran what was called the” Black babies Programme”
So while people were starving to death in the USA and UK, the church was asking for contributions to this fund and in Catholic schools children were told to bring in 2 pence a week for this black babies fund, to help feed and give medical attention to black children in other parts of the world.
World War Two left many white children with no parents, so the catholic Church searched the world and swapped them for black children to bring to the UK.
As the American troops went home the orphanages were full of mixed race babies.
In 1948 when the British army had just been demobbed and desperate to find work, the same Government they fought the war for, in a vile act of racism, advertised in the West Indies saying quote ” Come and do the jobs Englishmen are too lazy to do”
A British Political equality party was set up called the “National Front” who quoted Churchill, ” after the war there will be jobs and homes for all, you will come back toa land of milk and honey”
British people realised the land of milk and honey was not for them but the newcomers.
So while food was still being rationed to British people, the Nationality act saw for the first time people who in some cases had been living in mud huts given tickets to the UK
homes and guaranteed jobs on British rail the hospitals and London Transport,
while our men in many cases sat on the dole, a few would have been welcomed by the host communities but the word ” swamped ” was told by Parliament to never be used.
After the London Riots Lord Scaman the jewish government lackey in a disgusting act of
politically correct arse-kissing, said the riots were not racist, those of us who watched the riots from our homes windows saw almost nothing but black violence and looting.
I was a teacher in a London School at that time, and we were told to always give black kids
marks well above what they were actually entitled to, i said all my kids are treated equally to do otherwise is racist, it finished with me handing in my notice.
Enoch Powell that great political leader known as “The best Prime Minister we never had”
tried to alert the public as to the priviledges Black new comers were being given over the host nation, he was sacked moved to Northern Ireland, and the mail on Sunday said Edward Heath wanted him murdered but none of the SAS would do it.
So we have a situation predicted by Oswald Mosley George Orwell and Wiliam Joyce
where white folk are now second class citizens in their own land.
The BBC has had for some years a recruitment programme for black people and homosexuals, the BBC charges a licence fee for UK folk to watch its propaganda
but abroad in black countries it is free to watch.
The Murdoch press like TV ads constantly feature Black men with white women
this discriminates against black women to the point they won an undisclosed sum
as the ads were saying Black women were not good enough for black men,
the Commission for racial Equality, has proved itself racist as it tried to block all publicity.
Propaganda in the UK has reached a point now where the last lot of BLM riots made no secret of the fact that racism against whites was the main focus of the violence.
The pendulem has swung too far we need to recognise the sovereignty of our own people
the electorate who pay the wages of the criminal politicians who allow these anomilies to go on.
Nor can we expect the media of Antifa Russia to inform us honestly about what has occurred either, since both mass media conglomerations (UK-USA/Russia) are owned/managed by Jews–who are playing both ‘sides’ to exterminate Aryan Ukrainians & advance their WEF policies…What the MSM & TTS doesn’t tell you is that the ‘Minister of Mass Media’ of Antifa Russia is some gross obese Jew named ‘Maksut Shadayev’. Just search for it & you’ll see what it looks like–resembles ‘Harvey Weinstein’..

the biggest problem are the Rothschilds,
Rockefellers, Soros, Sanhedrin, B´naiB´rit,
ADL,Mossad, israhell+ rest of jew mafia .
Think of every war monument as a failure of humanity and success for those who would benefit. We are living life backwards, Progress isn’t and we have proven it with our “science” that is all that good although benefits are created, how many are able to share and what have we done to our companions, the living earth and our web of life which is what makes life worth living. Being detached from the earth and all it provides and hoarding life, land and water is the most stupid act of any creature ever alive.
Nico X–what’s wrong with calling yourself Nico X instead of Aleister, Mister Crowley, Joker, Harold Shipman, Neo, Max X, Vito X (earlier) and another one lately? Is someone supposed to be fooled by this spacky little dance?
