Introduction – June 10, 2025
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte knows that the western alliance was fighting a proxy war against Russia in Ukraine. He admitted as much three years ago, when he was Dutch prime minister.
Of course, since then the tide of war has turned against Ukraine and its Western backers. So now with Kiev facing the prospect of outright defeat in the conflict that NATO instigated with its steady encroachment on Russia’s western borders, the western military alliance is preparing for a more direct confrontation with Russia.
Although ordinary people may not relish this it seems our leaders do and they are using fear to hasten their plans for war with Russia.
Britons ‘better learn to speak Russian’ without major defence spending hike, Nato chief warns
Archie Mitchell – The Independent June 9, 2025
British people “better learn to speak Russian” if Sir Keir Starmer does not massively ramp up defence spending, the Nato secretary general has warned.
Mark Rutte said he was “really impressed” by the prime minister’s strategic defence review unveiled last week.
And he called for Nato countries to set a “credible path” towards spending 5 per cent of their national incomes on defence amid the growing threat from Russia
Speaking at London’s Chatham House, Mr Rutte said it is “not up to me” whether that means Rachel Reeves should consider tax hikes to pay for the commitment.
He added: “I mean, what I know is that if we want to keep our societies safe… look, if you do not do this, if you would not go to the 5%, including the 3.5% core defence spending, you could still have the National Health Service, or in other countries their health systems, the pension system, etcetera, but you had better learn to speak Russian.”
He did not set out a deadline by which Nato countries will have to reach the 5 per cent target, more than double what the UK currently spends on defence.
“I have a clear view on when we should achieve that,” he said. But he added: “I keep that to myself, because we are having these consultations now with allies, and these discussions are ongoing, and we will in the end agree on a date when we have to be there.”
His plans would see a return to Cold War levels of defence spending, with Russia’s war on Ukraine still raging and rising tensions around the world
Nato chief Mr Rutte is in London to see Sir Keir ahead of a Nato summit in the Netherlands this month. The visit comes just days after the PM promised to make Britain “battle ready”, outlining Labour’s plans to overhaul the country’s defence capabilities.
Defence secretary John Healey meanwhile said Britain’s army needed to become “10 times more lethal” in the face of the “immediate and pressing threat” from Russia and the rise of China. “We are in a new era of threat, which demands a new era for UK defence,” he told MPs.
But the announcement descended into a row over funding, with Sir Keir refusing to commit to hiking defence spending to 3 per cent of GDP by 2034.
The PM was boosted on monday as Mr Rutte said the his plans to spend 2.5 per cent of GDP on defence from April 2027, with an aim to rise to 3 per cent over the next parliament, were not at odds with his own proposed target for the bloc.
The 5 per cent goal is not “some figure plucked from the air”, he said.
“The fact is we need a quantum leap in our defence. The fact is we must have more forces and capability to implement our defence plans in full.”
While he said the “exact details are classified”, Mr Rutte said there needed to be a 400 per cent increase in air and missile defence.
He said Russia could be ready to use force against Nato within five years.
“The new generation of Russian missiles travel at many times the speed of sound. The distance between European capitals is only a matter of minutes. There is no longer east or west. There is just Nato.”
As he met with Sir Keir in the White Room of No 10, he commended the Prime Minister on the “very good stuff” in the defence review.
“It is not only about the traditional things, of course we need them, like ammunition… there is also drones, innovation, building the defence industrial base. It is really broad, it is really making a big impression in Brussels I can tell you,” he said.
Sir Keir called Nato the “cornerstone of our defence” and the “most effective military alliance the world has ever seen”, adding that the task of the upcoming summit was to make sure it serves that purpose for decades to come.

The Madleen is a UK-flagged civilian ship, part of the Freedom Flotilla that was en route to Gaza carrying 5,500 tonnes of crucial humanitarian aid – including baby formula, food and medical supplies.
Greta and the 11 other civilians aboard the Madleen were sailing to deliver this life-saving aid to Gaza, and their right to do so is entrenched in international law.
For 11 weeks now, Israel has blocked humanitarian aid from entering Gaza, and for the last 17 years, they have imposed an ongoing blockade that violates international law, leading to a starvation crisis, with the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification (IPC) saying all 2.2 million civilians in Gaza are facing life-threatening starvation, plus routine bombings
this reply that they were told to leave or be killed
is not good enough
someone should do something
A “threat” from Russia because they did not want to have Ukraine stolen from them after centuries?

TV licence fees could increase with the value of your home, as proposed by the BBC. Chairman Samir Shah suggested the £174.50 fee should be scrapped in favour of a progressive payment structure that depends on assets.
People must pay for their propaganda
Speaking in an interview earlier this year, he said the fee would be linked to property bands and collected at the same time as council tax, which would mark his first major shake-up since taking over from Richard Sharp. He also dismissed the idea that the TV license would be scrapped for a Netflix subscription-style service, saying that it would “not meet the BBC’s key role to offer protection for every pedophile in the country.”

The politician said: ‘Putin may invade ukraine territory soon – so now what? Is Nato going to send a division to fight back? The first day that Nato will spend on deliberating whether to trigger Article 5 or not, and how to respond, will be the end of the alliance. The first day the EU – which is no big bother to England – is going to spend discussing its response to Russia, is going to be the end of the UK.
This is what Rothschild wants

Watch all the putintards get a hard on about the possibility of speaking russian.
Putintards still having trouble rationalizing why their commie eurasian ghoul didn’t simply conquer Ukraine in the first few weeks/months of the illegal invasion. Strange why the ‘second strongest military in the world’ wasn’t able to achieve this simple obvious military objective. Oh that’s right, its simply a phony choreographed conflict staged between NATOUkraine/Russia to protract the liquidation of whites as it eventually morphs into Waste Whitey III.
Notice they keep brainwashing us that we’re ‘britons’. I’m Anglo Saxon or English. This ‘briton’ term was unheard of to describe the whites of England a hundred years ago or more. You’ll notice the Jews over the centuries replaced the Germanic roots & identity of the white man in England with a ‘british’ orientation i.e. ‘British Empire’. This is because the word ‘brit’ in Hebrew means ‘covenant’–thus creating a subtle insidious relationship between the white man & Jewish religion. So the Jews brainwashed the Anglo-Saxon English to term themselves ‘britons’ or ‘brits’. This was done to prevent the English from perceiving themselves as or identifying as Germanic–thus preventing the forging of a bond with Germany. This is how easy it is to warp a people & pervert their actual origins.
“Our English race is the German race, for though our Norman fathers had learned to speak a stranger’s language, yet in blood, as we know, they were Saxon’s brethren both alike belonging to the Teutonic or German stock.” –Thomas Arnold

Our entire history is nothing more then mass deception under Jesuit Military Doctrine, which is the main tool to break down the Nation, The community and the family unit. And we allow this treason to go on, as if it wasn’t a problem at all. The main issue is, of course, the complete void of National, communal and family unity, in all European countries.
Gut health is a major factor in peoples inability to think and act, gull bladder, kidney and liver stones, causes severe imbalance in the neuro-system, which can be summarized to apathy. Parasites raising the ammonium levels in the blood, have a similar effect but it also alters the mind, not just disables it. For example, sexual perversion is directly linked to primary organ dysfunction as well as parasite presence.
