Is there any such thing as righteous blood lust? It strikes me as a contradiction in terms. But, what do I know? I am just a conscientious objector grannie.
The terrorist USEUNATO conglomerate may still refuse to buy Russian fuel directly from Putin's shop of wonders, but neither side will be banning the reselling/purchase of the stuff by Indian, Chinese, Turkish, etc., middlemen. With the added benefit of deepening the global fuel price and inflation crises! Ain't that just a lovely business venture.
The Putin Kremlin and its Western "enemies" are so very innovative and well-coordinated when it comes to making a clusterfuck even worse.
Wars are a lot like wildfires, they are hellish and devastating. Yet, like the case is often with wildfires they are a precursor to a natural rebirth. Some species of pine trees don't even propagate if their seeds are not subjected to the high temperature that can only come with fire. Much of that is true for war as well, even lost wars can bring about a national rebirth. Case in point - Germany after WWI and WWII, or Japan after WWII. Won wars have similar effect, look at Soviet Union after civil war of 1918 - 1922 and after WWII, or at the US after WWII when both countries had two of their most productive decades between 1945 and 1965.
Regarding war between Russia and Ukraine, when a third of capable men in Russia are employed as security guards at the shopping malls and warehouses, perhaps the war is not such a bad thing? In Ukraine they managed to mobilize society over the last 8 years, not with the messages and ideology that I condone, but nevertheless. This mobilization showed itself with a fierce resistance Ukrainians demonstrated when Russian occupation started. In Russia many are still half asleep in their personal consumption dream. Time to wake up if they want to survive. This escalation does good to the country, exposing a lot of wrongs on which Putin's system was built, but also a lot of good that Russia still has despite attempts to destroy that.
I'm not bloodthirsty. Simply a realist who understands that wars are a part of our genetic makeup. Even US that due to its excellent geography that would allow it not to participate in any wars, is participating in and even stirring multiple wars around the globe. If beacon of democracy, country led by idea of exceptionalism is behaving in such way, what can we expect from the rest?
On both sides, every supporter of the war is a useful idiot for a small elite's interests.
European war supporters are double useful idiots as I think war aims at destroying our continent and civilization to prepare annexion by Russia and China.
Riley has confirmed the final nail (Sputnik V is NOT mandated for Russian soldiers) in the narrative coffin that Russia is complicit in the USA/UK/EU/World Economic Form "great reset". This narrative WAS true before Feb 2022. AFTER Feb 2022, the narrative is false in my opinion because Russia and the USA/EU/UK/World Economic Forum got a divorce in Feb 2022. This narrative should be dead and buried however of course the wolf dogs on this posting board will attack bark at me for daring to have a different opinion. However I am NOT a sheep that is part of this sheep herd. All the angry wolf dog barking does NOT affect a critical thinking mind. I have a silver bullet of TRUTH that these wolf dogs are terrified of. The truth is this is battle between good and evil.
Evil NEEDS to be CALLED OUT every single time. The Ukraine GOVERNMENT SBU is evil with latest example of filtration of the Ukrainian innocent civilians. A graphic video clip was released online on Sunday, Oct 9, by Maksim Zhorin, a Ukrainian officer and former senior commander of the neo-Nazi Azov regiment. This video was recorded near the town of Kupyansk, (controlled by Ukraine forces since middle of September) and showed a big hole dug in the ground with at least 3 people in CIVILIAN clothes being throw in.
"If an evil one pokes a friendly good bear too many times"
"However I am NOT a sheep that is part of this sheep herd"
I would like to match the concepts together, I can't...
In Sahel, Kremlin's mercenaries slaughter civilians without weapons, rape and eviscerate little girls (and the information is confirmed by ex Minister of Defense Marie Reine Hassen, and local newspapers, NGOs, and French militaries in external operations there). Which good bear are you talking about?
Innocent Russian citizen and journalist, Darya Dugina, 29, was killed on August 20 when her car was blown up on the M1 Highway near the village of Bolshiye Vyazemy in the Moscow Region’s Odintsovsky district. On August 22, the Russian Federal Security Service's Public Relations Center told TASS that her murder had been solved. According to the agency, it was carried out by Ukraine’s intelligence services, and the perpetrator was a Ukrainian citizen named Natalya Vovk.
Ukrainian government is evil. This is fact and NOT propaganda.
Frances Leader> I see you have a bitchute channel in your description. Are you willing to discuss your point of view in a interview with me? I plan to start an interview channel with critical thinkers on my future bitchute channel (target date>Dec 2022).
I am talking about the good bear that is Russian Federation.
With all due respect, the ex Minister of Defense in Mali is a western WEF puppet agent so of course Mr. Hassen parrots the Russian negative narrative spoon fed to him by the west. The current Mali government turned to Russia as a partner. The trouble with France and their Mr. Hassen lap dogs of perpetual war is that France REFUSES to consult with the current Mali government in an equal partnership. Instead, France simply drinks the Mali wine and disrespectfully put their feet on the table and blows smoke while puffing a cigar in Mali's house.
and corroborate the information that many diggers in gold mines are found dead.
3 russian journalists were killed in totale indifference of the Kremlin:
they were enquiring about the russian society LOBAYE INVEST and WAGNER in Sahel.
You can not deny Wagner's presence in Sahel, and support the very corrupted president Touadera. What are they doing there? and why the whole media's silence about it (which makes me think of a collusion between the East and the West)? Why did they close two french radios in Mali, that offered the mic to witnesses?
Sandrine, thanks for the correction however I wonder why it is so important for you to convince me. Bugey libre has been to Mali and personally interacted with both the people of Mali and the French military. Have you?
My opinion is the following:
1) The Wagner Group is there because they work FOR those who hired them.
If the Wagner Group was doing a bad job, then they would be fired by those who hired them.
2) "the whole media's silence about it" is because this is NOT an important news item.
3) Two French radio stations were closed because maybe, just maybe, and most probable, the witnesses were NOT deemed credible by the Mali government. I really do NOT know however I trust the Mali government media much more than the French government media.
Perception Deception, I'm not sure I want to convince you :-) I just want to correct what I suppose to be wrong, I have nothing personal with you / against you, not even Bugey libre. There are rivers of blood everywhere and I would be curious if there is only ONE population (poor and middle classes) that could take a benefit out of it.
So she is not a Sahelian and even less Malian and is a without a shadow of a doubt, a puppet of the French 'services'. I guess very few readers of that blog have any idea of Central African Republic history. I have already sent relevant documents about it.
If you want more infos, I have books.
If the Russian private army operating now in Mali were slaughtering people there, why would the Malian people not complain about them? Why would neighbooring Burkina Faso would welcome Russian aid?
There has been an ugly event in Moura, close to the border with Burkina Faso but the Malian Army takes credit for what happened and I am ready to discuss in lengh about what has been going on and what is going on.
There has been many ugly events for 9 years now in Mali, there is a war going on, it's ugly and the Malian army has met very ugly moments even before the war, with hundreds of them being slaughtered. Same with the Burkinabe military and Gendarmerie (not to talk about the civilians).
Pseudo sandrine is always sidelining official French usurpators propaganda. French speaking West Africans are not against France or French but against the usurpators behing which, stand Mc Kinsey and Co, the US of A. There are a lot of their families living in France and they know exactly what is going on and know their interest lies with good relationships since otherwise, it would be hell.
The speech made by honorable Maïga (a Songhaï, a Northerner, prime minister of Mali) tells it all. I have sent it already but for those who have not read the historic moment I advise them to read it or if you don't have time I will send it again under request. It is clear that there would be no Russians without a good French policy in Mali and Sahel.
I don't need to say 'dear' before sayingthat I am very shocked to hear Musk offering a peace process. Not that I don't want peace but because I am doubtful of his intentions as well as those who are behind him and helped him become so rich and "important".
Who is that guy? I know his bio and I am wondering why such an individual takes such an unprecedented role. As an aside, which I find somehow revealing, what is his daughter's name? We may disagree on that subject on Stan's two cents substack which at that point is not polluted by pseudo Sandrine logorrhea and it's pathological manipulative, bullying interventions.
Your last sentence is pretty accurate and you could have good informations with my friend, Aminata Draman Traoré, the ex minister of culture.
Greetings Bugey libre with my best regards to you,
Thank you for taking the time to type my full pseudo name. Even if you did not, you and Stanley Shepard are always respectful towards me.
>I value your judgement and credibility since you have been to Africa and personally interacted with both the people of Mali and the French military.
Yes, I support the good military taking control of government in Burkina Faso. I would like to learn more when I have extra time. Would Aminata Draman Traoré be willing to be interviewed by me to be posted on my future bitchute channel?
My immediate concern among others is that I have to file a foreign bank account form with the Internal Revenue Service by 15 October.
>Yes, Stanley Shepard dedicated a whole well written article about Elon Musk's peace plan and I commented under Stanley's article. Elon Musk is very high profile and his peace plan is easy to understand. Elon is the ONLY one that has a peace plan on the table RIGHT NOW that requires a compromise on both sides. Elon Musk has a conscious at times and said, "We have to VERY careful about Artificial Intelligence. If we are NOT careful, we could be summoning the demon."
>In my opinion, Sandrine plays the "African card" to demonstrate that the Russian government does bad behavior in Africa. Sandrine has the right and prerogative to post her information even though I disagree with her. Sandrine has the same freedom of speech that Riley has granted us. I would say let readers do their own research and decide for themselves. Someone like you who has been to Africa carries a lot of weight of credibility. So far, Riley lets free speech prevail as long as the derogatory red line is NOT crossed.
Barking at me, James, and Tony WITHOUT provocation is hounding us in order to keep us in line with YOUR narrative.
Yes, I do have a silver bullet of truth because I call out evil every time I see evil.
I have heart liked Riley's "well documented" articles because Russia WAS part of WEF "great reset" BEFORE Feb 2022. However, I do NOT like today's article and I gave my opinion.
"Now it can be told" book" by Philip Gibbs FAILS to call out the root cause of World War I and FAILS to call out EVIL FORCES behind World War I and FAILS to call out the Rothschild banking cartel that funded World War I.
So I have the prerogative to NOT like Riley's article this time because Riley follows Philip Gibbs' footsteps and ONLY calls out the horror of war.
In my opinion, the people locked into this anti-Russian sentiment echo chamber narrative are the sheep. The sheep can continue down the pasture guarded by wolf dogs while mesmerized by this anti Russian sentiment. Meanwhile, evil is lurking all around sheep and the sheep are too blind to see EVIL because the sheep are conditioned/brainwashed into an anti-Russian sentiment.
FACT> After Feb 2022, NO Russian was invited to be at the World Economic Forum.
Sarah and neither does anyone else provide ANY FACTUAL PROOF that Russia is "cooperating with" the World Economic Forum AFTER Feb 2022.
FACT> After Feb 2022, Russians can buy gold by the gram and open a gold account. (Proof of individual sovereignty for Russians against a central bank digital currency.)
FACT>After Feb 2022, Russia made the World Economic Forum very angry by launching their "special military operation" against EVIL. (Proof is sanctions from hell diverting money and resources AWAY FROM the the Certificate of Vaccination ID agenda.)
Though it is clear that War is an intrinsic evil, the idea of a ´´Just War´´ should also to be considered and such defensive war (which IMO Russia is fighting) is not evil in intent, as there is a genuine need to defend Russian people against the onslaught of a dangerous and corrupt enemy.
On an individual/family level, what should one do when a psycho is hammering down the door and threatning to rape and murder your wife and kids? Any man posessing a modicum of decency and courage would fight to the death (using every improvised weapon at hand from chainsaw to kitchen knife) to prevent this crime against his innocent family.
I agree with James McDonnel (although the concept of "just" is just inane human noise to my ears). Russia is up against a wall and is fighting back. That is all.
I wonder how many of us here are bots or paid trolls. The discursive air is getting rather dank of late. Not to mention this one-size-fits-all "the Rothschilds did it" theme feels more like comic book plot line than serious political analysis.
As for the powers that be exploiting our willingness to pick sides and fight: I see plenty of that here on these discussion threads. Don't believe in Davosian Rothschild global schematics? Then it's Burn the witch! You're either with us or against us!
I quite agree with this sentiment and point of view. But, one of the problems with being a "free floating intellectual" is that it seems you never get anywhere. Take the now century long debate over (alleged) German atrocities against civilians in WWI. Did such occur or was that merely "propaganda" (it may have been one of Goebbels' best insights to understand that the best propaganda is true)? Here is a recent 625 page volume by two presumably careful and sincere historians who conclude the answer is yes - there were widespread atrocities committed by German troops. So, what next? - How about everyone devote 30 solid reading hours to their assessment and don't comment on any substack until you're finished! - ... not gonna happen! It's much easier to go on about the Jews running the Bolshevik revolution - which is probably in substantial measure true - but just what was the measure and how substantial was it - hard and nearly impossible work!
IN the end, talk is talk. Following is from Sir John Gluib's "Fate of Empires:
XVIII The Age of Intellect
We have now, perhaps arbitrarily, divided the life-story of our great nation into four ages. The Age of the Pioneers (or the Outburst), the Age of Conquests, the Age of Commerce, and the Age of Affluence. The great wealth of the nation is no longer needed to supply the mere necessities, or even the luxuries of life. Ample funds are available also for the pursuit of knowledge. The merchant princes of the Age of Commerce seek fame and praise, not only by endowing works of art or patronising music and literature. They also found and endow colleges and universities. It is remarkable with what regularity this phase follows on that of wealth, in empire after empire, divided by many centuries. In the eleventh century, the former Arab Empire, then in complete political decline, was ruled by the Seljuk sultan, Malik Shah. The Arabs, no longer soldiers, were still the intellectual leaders of the world. During the reign of Malik Shah, the building of universities and colleges became a passion. Whereas a small number of universities in the great cities had sufficed the years of Arab glory, now a university sprang up in every town. In our own lifetime, we have witnessed the same phenomenon in the U.S.A. and Britain. When these nations were at the height of their glory, Harvard, Yale, Oxford and Cambridge seemed to meet their needs. Now almost every city has its university. The Fate of Empires 11 The ambition of the young, once engaged in the pursuit of adventure and military glory, and then in the desire for the accumulation of wealth, now turns to the acquisition of academic honours. It is useful here to take note that almost all the pursuits followed with such passion throughout the ages were in themselves good. The manly cult of hardihood, frankness and truthfulness, which characterised the Age of Conquests, produced many really splendid heroes. The opening up of natural resources, and the peaceful accumulation of wealth, which marked the age of commercialism, appeared to introduce new triumphs in civilisation, in culture and in the arts. In the same way, the vast expansion of the field of knowledge achieved by the Age of Intellect seemed to mark a new high-water mark of human progress. We cannot say that any of these changes were ‘good’ or ‘bad’. The striking features in the pageant of empire are: (a) the extraordinary exactitude with which these stages have followed one another, in empire after empire, over centuries or even millennia; and (b) the fact that the successive changes seem to represent mere changes in popular fashion—new fads and fancies which sweep away public opinion without logical reason. At first, popular enthusiasm is devoted to military glory, then to the accumulation of wealth and later to the acquisition of academic fame. Why could not all these legitimate, and indeed beneficent, activities be carried on simultaneously, each of them in due moderation? Yet this never seemed to happen. XIX The effects of intellectualism There are so many things in human life which are not dreamt of in our popular philosophy. The spread of knowledge seems to be the most beneficial of human activities, and yet every period of decline is characterrised by this expansion of intellectual activity. ‘All the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing’ is the description given in the Acts of the Apostles of the decline of Greek intellectualism. The Age of Intellect is accompanied by surprising advances in natural science. In the ninth century, for example, in the age of Mamun, the Arabs measured the circumference of the earth with remarkable accuracy. Seven centuries were to pass before Western Europe discovered that the world was not flat. Less than fifty years after the amazing scientific discoveries under Mamun, the Arab Empire collapsed. Wonderful and beneficent as was the progress of science, it did not save the empire from chaos. The full flowering of Arab and Persian intellectualism did not occur until after their imperial and political collapse. Thereafter the intellectuals attained fresh triumphs in the academic field, but politically they became the abject servants of the often illiterate rulers. When the Mongols conquered Persia in the thirteenth century, they were themselves entirely uneducated and were obliged to depend wholly on native Persian officials to administer the country and to collect the revenue. They retained as wazeer, or Prime Minister, one Rashid alDin, a historian of international repute. Yet 12 The Fate of Empires the Prime Minister, when speaking to the Mongol II Khan, was obliged to remain throughout the interview on his knees. At state banquets, the Prime Minister stood behind the Khan’s seat to wait upon him. If the Khan were in a good mood, he occasionally passed his wazeer a piece of food over his shoulder. As in the case of the Athenians, intellectualism leads to discussion, debate and argument, such as is typical of the Western nations today. Debates in elected assemblies or local committees, in articles in the Press or in interviews on television— endless and incessant talking. Men are interminably different, and intellectual arguments rarely lead to agreement. Thus public affairs drift from bad to worse, amid an unceasing cacophony of argument. But this constant dedication to discussion seems to destroy the power of action. Amid a Babel of talk, the ship drifts on to the rocks. XX The inadequacy of intellect Perhaps the most dangerous by-product of the Age of Intellect is the unconscious growth of the idea that the human brain can solve the problems of the world. Even on the low level of practical affairs this is patently untrue. Any small human activity, the local bowls club or the ladies’ luncheon club, requires for its survival a measure of selfsacrifice and service on the part of the members. In a wider national sphere, the survival of the nation depends basically on the loyalty and self-sacrifice of the citizens. The impression that the situation can be saved by mental cleverness, without unselfishness or human self-dedication, can only lead to collapse. Thus we see that the cultivation of the human intellect seems to be a magnificent ideal, but only on condition that it does not weaken unselfishness and human dedication to service. Yet this, judging by historical precedent, seems to be exactly what it does do. Perhaps it is not the intellectualism which destroys the spirit of self-sacrifice—the least we can say is that the two, intellectualism and the loss of a sense of duty, appear simultaneously in the life-story of the nation. Indeed it often appears in individuals, that the head and the heart are natural rivals. The brilliant but cynical intellectual appears at the opposite end of the spectrum from the emotional self-sacrifice of the hero or the martyr. Yet there are times when the perhaps unsophisticated self-dedication of the hero is more essential than the sarcasms of the clever.
Interesting read. A short lookup of Glubb reveals he was a military man being responsible for maintaining British control over Arabia. Quote from Wikipedia: " Glubb has been described as an "integral tool in the maintenance of British control.""
Thus his focus on duty vs intellectualism. So you might argue that if you have a hammer in your hand, you see nails everywhere.
Point is, today there is no Dschingis Khan. No other culture can beat the West by force. It is not that we are all weaklings complaining each day. And we do not see other cultures destroying the West in any way, either by force or intellectually.
Instead our own leaders destroy us. Leaders payed by the super rich. And it is not a conspiracy theory. They tell us openly. They write books about Great Reset and Bug Burgers. I mean... what else do you need?
Maybe it is that this dreaded intellectualism opens the heads of people and lead them to believe that (real) Democracy is a good thing and they begin to understand how the powerful are just parasites and a burden?
Maybe this is why the powerful destroy their own societies? Or should I say the societies they (still) own? To restore their power in a less intellectual society?
In a society where people don't have the time to think but instead have to fight for survival? Or are controlled sheeple, held down by technology?
Maybe it's been the same game all along throughout the centuries, I don't know. But for me, this feels just right and in this age of information I see overwhelming evidence carrying this thesis. At least for now.
We always blame our leaders because we always place responsibility and authority on leaders not ourselves. After all, we've been taught to do so since kindergarten. Also, a flimsy character assassination on Glubb because he was both a member, student, and critic of empire, hardly disqualifies him.
"It is not that we are all weaklings complaining each day."
Okay, you're superheroes complaining each day, then. There are people who videotape atrocities being committed and there are people who step in and try to stop said atrocities. I prefer the latter and count myself among their (apparently) sparsely populated ranks. You can be loyal to the army of outraged voices "full of sound and fury" that are, in the end where the rubber meets the road and the truncheon meets the skull, "signifying nothing" but willingness to be full of sound and fury on an online forum.
"And it is not a conspiracy theory. They tell us openly. They write books about Great Reset and Bug Burgers. I mean... what else do you need?"
A bit of individual courage rather than group denunciation from afar. How we cherish our fearless leaders if only to point our fingers and say "It's THEIR fault!"
I agree with Glubb. And I thank you for catalyzing my resolve to spend no more time chattering like this. I have a big mouth and it shuts with difficulty, but you have provided me leverage to do so. Bless you, sir.
You're right Sarah. This war is obscene, on both sides by the way.
And while each camp occupy the whole public debate with Hegelian principles that cancel one another, in the meantime, Rothschild's eastern and western puppets are making their move for a small elite interests.
All wars look like wheels within wheels unless you know every esoteric detail of the causes and engagements. Nobody ever does.
It is wise, therefore, to acknowledge only the basics.
Basic one: the US/Israel started the war in 2014.
Basic two: Putin held off rescue of the East until the last minute, and we know this meant testing of critical weapons.
Basic three. The US wants Germany, Russia, and UK destroyed. Thus, no more future threatening competing empires.
Basic four: Russia continues to hold all the military aces... missiles that outclass anything the West possesses; and, non-nuclear weapons of mass destruction that we do not yet know about.
Basic five: The US is dying and, like many in their death throes, no longer cares who dies with them.
Basic six: The winners will be the 60% world population not part of the West. Hopefully, some of America's outlying colonies may avoid most of the destruction. We can only hope.
Nice tactical interception, Sarah, but you are wrong. There are no assumptions. Most wars today were precipitated, manipulated, and invariably managed by the global investment banker alliance; regardless of where initiated: NY, City of London, or Basel.
Every word I use has its genesis in evidence. You may wish to refute the evidence or doubt its relative validity, in which case, if your evidence is better, I will adopt it. So... go for it.
I think this is one of the most important blog posts I've read in the last year. Not because of the information it provides, but because it is so incredibly important to remember all of these things, and yet there seem to be so few who take it to heart. In the non-stop drumbeat of war, nothing is more important than to pause again and again and ask yourself what you are doing and thinking and why and whether it could be otherwise. The pundits and their entourage are frighteningly often the exact mirror image of those they wish to hell. We've indeed been here before, countless times, and it's always the same frustrating story.
Is there any such thing as righteous blood lust? It strikes me as a contradiction in terms. But, what do I know? I am just a conscientious objector grannie.
I was being a bit facetious :)
I wish you had told us that was a possibility before I tried eating those “delicious” rubles. Yech!

Wars are a lot like wildfires, they are hellish and devastating. Yet, like the case is often with wildfires they are a precursor to a natural rebirth. Some species of pine trees don't even propagate if their seeds are not subjected to the high temperature that can only come with fire. Much of that is true for war as well, even lost wars can bring about a national rebirth. Case in point - Germany after WWI and WWII, or Japan after WWII. Won wars have similar effect, look at Soviet Union after civil war of 1918 - 1922 and after WWII, or at the US after WWII when both countries had two of their most productive decades between 1945 and 1965.

Even US that due to its excellent geography that would allow it not to participate in any wars, is participating in and even stirring multiple wars around the globe.

Good read Riley. Will be linking tomorrow @https://nothingnewunderthesun2016.com/
Mankind never seems to learn!!!!
I don't support war.
I also don't support my country of citizenship, the US of Arrogance, attacking my country of birth, Russia, in nUkraine.
So, there will be no more nUKraine.
Pity we are so goddammmm Arrogant in
America. I see it every few seconds.
Guess you haven't been here in a while.
It has changed, you can say, when every demo rat wants open war.
Thanks Tulsi
On both sides, every supporter of the war is a useful idiot for a small elite's interests.

There are just wars.
The percentage of them is very low.
Riley has confirmed the final nail (Sputnik V is NOT mandated for Russian soldiers) in the narrative coffin that Russia is complicit in the USA/UK/EU/World Economic Form "great reset". This narrative WAS true before Feb 2022. AFTER Feb 2022, the narrative is false in my opinion because Russia and the USA/EU/UK/World Economic Forum got a divorce in Feb 2022.

Ignoring evil is bystander apathy!

You're right, she works for Brussels. But this information (rape on children, ) is also confirmed by others sources:
https://acleddata.com/2022/08/30/wagner-group-operations-in-africa-civilian-targeting-trends-in-the-central-african-republic-and-mali/
and corroborate the information that many diggers in gold mines are found dead.
3 russian journalists were killed in totale indifference of the Kremlin:
they were enquiring about the russian society LOBAYE INVEST and WAGNER in Sahel.
You can not deny Wagner's presence in Sahel, and support the very corrupted president Touadera. What are they doing there? and why the whole media's silence about it (which makes me think of a collusion between the East and the West)? Why did they close two french radios in Mali, that offered the mic to witnesses?
Sandrine, thanks for the correction however I wonder why it is so important for you to convince me. Bugey libre has been to Mali and personally interacted with both the people of Mali and the French military. Have you?
My opinion is the following:
1) The Wagner Group is there because they work FOR those who hired them.
If the Wagner Group was doing a bad job, then they would be fired by those who hired them.
2) "the whole media's silence about it" is because this is NOT an important news item.
3) Two French radio stations were closed because maybe, just maybe, and most probable, the witnesses were NOT deemed credible by the Mali government. I really do NOT know however I trust the Mali government media much more than the French government media.
Perception Deception, I'm not sure I want to convince you :-) I just want to correct what I suppose to be wrong, I have nothing personal with you / against you, not even Bugey libre. There are rivers of blood everywhere and I would be curious if there is only ONE population (poor and middle classes) that could take a benefit out of it.
Hello Perception Deception (Calling you PD is very derigatory in French, this is why I always take time to write your full pseudo).
Who is that woman? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marie-Reine_Hassen
She is a daughter of ex-emperor of Central Africa, Bokassa 1e (LoL):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGqPKM5FW-k
So she is not a Sahelian and even less Malian and is a without a shadow of a doubt, a puppet of the French 'services'. I guess very few readers of that blog have any idea of Central African Republic history. I have already sent relevant documents about it.
If you want more infos, I have books.
If the Russian private army operating now in Mali were slaughtering people there, why would the Malian people not complain about them? Why would neighbooring Burkina Faso would welcome Russian aid?
There has been an ugly event in Moura, close to the border with Burkina Faso but the Malian Army takes credit for what happened and I am ready to discuss in lengh about what has been going on and what is going on.
There has been many ugly events for 9 years now in Mali, there is a war going on, it's ugly and the Malian army has met very ugly moments even before the war, with hundreds of them being slaughtered. Same with the Burkinabe military and Gendarmerie (not to talk about the civilians).
Pseudo sandrine is always sidelining official French usurpators propaganda. French speaking West Africans are not against France or French but against the usurpators behing which, stand Mc Kinsey and Co, the US of A. There are a lot of their families living in France and they know exactly what is going on and know their interest lies with good relationships since otherwise, it would be hell.
The speech made by honorable Maïga (a Songhaï, a Northerner, prime minister of Mali) tells it all. I have sent it already but for those who have not read the historic moment I advise them to read it or if you don't have time I will send it again under request. It is clear that there would be no Russians without a good French policy in Mali and Sahel.
I don't need to say 'dear' before sayingthat I am very shocked to hear Musk offering a peace process. Not that I don't want peace but because I am doubtful of his intentions as well as those who are behind him and helped him become so rich and "important".
Who is that guy? I know his bio and I am wondering why such an individual takes such an unprecedented role. As an aside, which I find somehow revealing, what is his daughter's name? We may disagree on that subject on Stan's two cents substack which at that point is not polluted by pseudo Sandrine logorrhea and it's pathological manipulative, bullying interventions.
Your last sentence is pretty accurate and you could have good informations with my friend, Aminata Draman Traoré, the ex minister of culture.
The speech by Colonel Abdulaye Maïga was made at the UN:

Greetings Bugey libre with my best regards to you,
Thank you for taking the time to type my full pseudo name. Even if you did not, you and Stanley Shepard are always respectful towards me.
>I value your judgement and credibility since you have been to Africa and personally interacted with both the people of Mali and the French military.
Yes, I support the good military taking control of government in Burkina Faso. I would like to learn more when I have extra time. Would Aminata Draman Traoré be willing to be interviewed by me to be posted on my future bitchute channel?
My immediate concern among others is that I have to file a foreign bank account form with the Internal Revenue Service by 15 October.
>Yes, Stanley Shepard dedicated a whole well written article about Elon Musk's peace plan and I commented under Stanley's article. Elon Musk is very high profile and his peace plan is easy to understand. Elon is the ONLY one that has a peace plan on the table RIGHT NOW that requires a compromise on both sides. Elon Musk has a conscious at times and said, "We have to VERY careful about Artificial Intelligence. If we are NOT careful, we could be summoning the demon."
>In my opinion, Sandrine plays the "African card" to demonstrate that the Russian government does bad behavior in Africa. Sandrine has the right and prerogative to post her information even though I disagree with her. Sandrine has the same freedom of speech that Riley has granted us. I would say let readers do their own research and decide for themselves. Someone like you who has been to Africa carries a lot of weight of credibility. So far, Riley lets free speech prevail as long as the derogatory red line is NOT crossed.
Sarah, i too have stopped bothering with PD, he has become a parody, the height of self deception.
2+2 is 3. Till the proper person tells you it's 5. :-)
Make sure it's the correct version of the Bible.
Barking at me, James, and Tony WITHOUT provocation is hounding us in order to keep us in line with YOUR narrative.
Yes, I do have a silver bullet of truth because I call out evil every time I see evil.
I have heart liked Riley's "well documented" articles because Russia WAS part of WEF "great reset" BEFORE Feb 2022. However, I do NOT like today's article and I gave my opinion.
"Now it can be told" book" by Philip Gibbs FAILS to call out the root cause of World War I and FAILS to call out EVIL FORCES behind World War I and FAILS to call out the Rothschild banking cartel that funded World War I.
So I have the prerogative to NOT like Riley's article this time because Riley follows Philip Gibbs' footsteps and ONLY calls out the horror of war.
In my opinion, the people locked into this anti-Russian sentiment echo chamber narrative are the sheep. The sheep can continue down the pasture guarded by wolf dogs while mesmerized by this anti Russian sentiment. Meanwhile, evil is lurking all around sheep and the sheep are too blind to see EVIL because the sheep are conditioned/brainwashed into an anti-Russian sentiment.
FACT> After Feb 2022, NO Russian was invited to be at the World Economic Forum.
Sarah and neither does anyone else provide ANY FACTUAL PROOF that Russia is "cooperating with" the World Economic Forum AFTER Feb 2022.
FACT> After Feb 2022, Russians can buy gold by the gram and open a gold account. (Proof of individual sovereignty for Russians against a central bank digital currency.)
FACT>After Feb 2022, Russia made the World Economic Forum very angry by launching their "special military operation" against EVIL. (Proof is sanctions from hell diverting money and resources AWAY FROM the the Certificate of Vaccination ID agenda.)
Such a great article. Thank you, Sir.
Though it is clear that War is an intrinsic evil, the idea of a ´´Just War´´ should also to be considered and such defensive war (which IMO Russia is fighting) is not evil in intent, as there is a genuine need to defend Russian people against the onslaught of a dangerous and corrupt enemy.
On an individual/family level, what should one do when a psycho is hammering down the door and threatning to rape and murder your wife and kids? Any man posessing a modicum of decency and courage would fight to the death (using every improvised weapon at hand from chainsaw to kitchen knife) to prevent this crime against his innocent family.
I agree with James McDonnel (although the concept of "just" is just inane human noise to my ears). Russia is up against a wall and is fighting back. That is all.
I wonder how many of us here are bots or paid trolls. The discursive air is getting rather dank of late. Not to mention this one-size-fits-all "the Rothschilds did it" theme feels more like comic book plot line than serious political analysis.
As for the powers that be exploiting our willingness to pick sides and fight: I see plenty of that here on these discussion threads. Don't believe in Davosian Rothschild global schematics? Then it's Burn the witch! You're either with us or against us!

I quite agree with this sentiment and point of view. But, one of the problems with being a "free floating intellectual" is that it seems you never get anywhere. Take the now century long debate over (alleged) German atrocities against civilians in WWI. Did such occur or was that merely "propaganda" (it may have been one of Goebbels' best insights to understand that the best propaganda is true)? Here is a recent 625 page volume by two presumably careful and sincere historians who conclude the answer is yes - there were widespread atrocities committed by German troops. So, what next? - How about everyone devote 30 solid reading hours to their assessment and don't comment on any substack until you're finished! - ... not gonna happen! It's much easier to go on about the Jews running the Bolshevik revolution - which is probably in substantial measure true - but just what was the measure and how substantial was it - hard and nearly impossible work!

IN the end, talk is talk. Following is from Sir John Gluib's "Fate of Empires:
XVIII The Age of Intellect
We have now, perhaps arbitrarily, divided the life-story of our great nation into four ages. The Age of the Pioneers (or the Outburst), the Age of Conquests, the Age of Commerce, and the Age of Affluence. The great wealth of the nation is no longer needed to supply the mere necessities, or even the luxuries of life. Ample funds are available also for the pursuit of knowledge. The merchant princes of the Age of Commerce seek fame and praise, not only by endowing works of art or patronising music and literature. They also found and endow colleges and universities. It is remarkable with what regularity this phase follows on that of wealth, in empire after empire, divided by many centuries. In the eleventh century, the former Arab Empire, then in complete political decline, was ruled by the Seljuk sultan, Malik Shah. The Arabs, no longer soldiers, were still the intellectual leaders of the world. During the reign of Malik Shah, the building of universities and colleges became a passion. Whereas a small number of universities in the great cities had sufficed the years of Arab glory, now a university sprang up in every town. In our own lifetime, we have witnessed the same phenomenon in the U.S.A. and Britain. When these nations were at the height of their glory, Harvard, Yale, Oxford and Cambridge seemed to meet their needs. Now almost every city has its university. The Fate of Empires 11 The ambition of the young, once engaged in the pursuit of adventure and military glory, and then in the desire for the accumulation of wealth, now turns to the acquisition of academic honours. It is useful here to take note that almost all the pursuits followed with such passion throughout the ages were in themselves good. The manly cult of hardihood, frankness and truthfulness, which characterised the Age of Conquests, produced many really splendid heroes. The opening up of natural resources, and the peaceful accumulation of wealth, which marked the age of commercialism, appeared to introduce new triumphs in civilisation, in culture and in the arts. In the same way, the vast expansion of the field of knowledge achieved by the Age of Intellect seemed to mark a new high-water mark of human progress. We cannot say that any of these changes were ‘good’ or ‘bad’. The striking features in the pageant of empire are: (a) the extraordinary exactitude with which these stages have followed one another, in empire after empire, over centuries or even millennia; and (b) the fact that the successive changes seem to represent mere changes in popular fashion—new fads and fancies which sweep away public opinion without logical reason. At first, popular enthusiasm is devoted to military glory, then to the accumulation of wealth and later to the acquisition of academic fame. Why could not all these legitimate, and indeed beneficent, activities be carried on simultaneously, each of them in due moderation? Yet this never seemed to happen. XIX The effects of intellectualism There are so many things in human life which are not dreamt of in our popular philosophy. The spread of knowledge seems to be the most beneficial of human activities, and yet every period of decline is characterrised by this expansion of intellectual activity. ‘All the Athenians and strangers which were there spent their time in nothing else, but either to tell or to hear some new thing’ is the description given in the Acts of the Apostles of the decline of Greek intellectualism. The Age of Intellect is accompanied by surprising advances in natural science. In the ninth century, for example, in the age of Mamun, the Arabs measured the circumference of the earth with remarkable accuracy. Seven centuries were to pass before Western Europe discovered that the world was not flat. Less than fifty years after the amazing scientific discoveries under Mamun, the Arab Empire collapsed. Wonderful and beneficent as was the progress of science, it did not save the empire from chaos. The full flowering of Arab and Persian intellectualism did not occur until after their imperial and political collapse. Thereafter the intellectuals attained fresh triumphs in the academic field, but politically they became the abject servants of the often illiterate rulers. When the Mongols conquered Persia in the thirteenth century, they were themselves entirely uneducated and were obliged to depend wholly on native Persian officials to administer the country and to collect the revenue. They retained as wazeer, or Prime Minister, one Rashid alDin, a historian of international repute. Yet 12 The Fate of Empires the Prime Minister, when speaking to the Mongol II Khan, was obliged to remain throughout the interview on his knees. At state banquets, the Prime Minister stood behind the Khan’s seat to wait upon him. If the Khan were in a good mood, he occasionally passed his wazeer a piece of food over his shoulder. As in the case of the Athenians, intellectualism leads to discussion, debate and argument, such as is typical of the Western nations today. Debates in elected assemblies or local committees, in articles in the Press or in interviews on television— endless and incessant talking. Men are interminably different, and intellectual arguments rarely lead to agreement. Thus public affairs drift from bad to worse, amid an unceasing cacophony of argument. But this constant dedication to discussion seems to destroy the power of action. Amid a Babel of talk, the ship drifts on to the rocks. XX The inadequacy of intellect Perhaps the most dangerous by-product of the Age of Intellect is the unconscious growth of the idea that the human brain can solve the problems of the world. Even on the low level of practical affairs this is patently untrue. Any small human activity, the local bowls club or the ladies’ luncheon club, requires for its survival a measure of selfsacrifice and service on the part of the members. In a wider national sphere, the survival of the nation depends basically on the loyalty and self-sacrifice of the citizens. The impression that the situation can be saved by mental cleverness, without unselfishness or human self-dedication, can only lead to collapse. Thus we see that the cultivation of the human intellect seems to be a magnificent ideal, but only on condition that it does not weaken unselfishness and human dedication to service. Yet this, judging by historical precedent, seems to be exactly what it does do. Perhaps it is not the intellectualism which destroys the spirit of self-sacrifice—the least we can say is that the two, intellectualism and the loss of a sense of duty, appear simultaneously in the life-story of the nation. Indeed it often appears in individuals, that the head and the heart are natural rivals. The brilliant but cynical intellectual appears at the opposite end of the spectrum from the emotional self-sacrifice of the hero or the martyr. Yet there are times when the perhaps unsophisticated self-dedication of the hero is more essential than the sarcasms of the clever.

Interesting read. A short lookup of Glubb reveals he was a military man being responsible for maintaining British control over Arabia. Quote from Wikipedia: " Glubb has been described as an "integral tool in the maintenance of British control.""
Thus his focus on duty vs intellectualism. So you might argue that if you have a hammer in your hand, you see nails everywhere.
Point is, today there is no Dschingis Khan. No other culture can beat the West by force. It is not that we are all weaklings complaining each day. And we do not see other cultures destroying the West in any way, either by force or intellectually.
Instead our own leaders destroy us. Leaders payed by the super rich. And it is not a conspiracy theory. They tell us openly. They write books about Great Reset and Bug Burgers. I mean... what else do you need?
Maybe it is that this dreaded intellectualism opens the heads of people and lead them to believe that (real) Democracy is a good thing and they begin to understand how the powerful are just parasites and a burden?
Maybe this is why the powerful destroy their own societies? Or should I say the societies they (still) own? To restore their power in a less intellectual society?
In a society where people don't have the time to think but instead have to fight for survival? Or are controlled sheeple, held down by technology?
Maybe it's been the same game all along throughout the centuries, I don't know. But for me, this feels just right and in this age of information I see overwhelming evidence carrying this thesis. At least for now.
"Instead our own leaders destroy us."
We always blame our leaders because we always place responsibility and authority on leaders not ourselves. After all, we've been taught to do so since kindergarten. Also, a flimsy character assassination on Glubb because he was both a member, student, and critic of empire, hardly disqualifies him.
"It is not that we are all weaklings complaining each day."
Okay, you're superheroes complaining each day, then. There are people who videotape atrocities being committed and there are people who step in and try to stop said atrocities. I prefer the latter and count myself among their (apparently) sparsely populated ranks. You can be loyal to the army of outraged voices "full of sound and fury" that are, in the end where the rubber meets the road and the truncheon meets the skull, "signifying nothing" but willingness to be full of sound and fury on an online forum.

"And it is not a conspiracy theory. They tell us openly. They write books about Great Reset and Bug Burgers. I mean... what else do you need?"
A bit of individual courage rather than group denunciation from afar. How we cherish our fearless leaders if only to point our fingers and say "It's THEIR fault!"
I agree with Glubb. And I thank you for catalyzing my resolve to spend no more time chattering like this. I have a big mouth and it shuts with difficulty, but you have provided me leverage to do so. Bless you, sir.
Y'all be good. I leave us with this:

You're right Sarah. This war is obscene, on both sides by the way.
And while each camp occupy the whole public debate with Hegelian principles that cancel one another, in the meantime, Rothschild's eastern and western puppets are making their move for a small elite interests.
I don't like or trust Russia.
NATO has no business on border of Russia
All wars look like wheels within wheels unless you know every esoteric detail of the causes and engagements. Nobody ever does.
It is wise, therefore, to acknowledge only the basics.
Basic one: the US/Israel started the war in 2014.
Basic two: Putin held off rescue of the East until the last minute, and we know this meant testing of critical weapons.
Basic three. The US wants Germany, Russia, and UK destroyed. Thus, no more future threatening competing empires.
Basic four: Russia continues to hold all the military aces... missiles that outclass anything the West possesses; and, non-nuclear weapons of mass destruction that we do not yet know about.
Basic five: The US is dying and, like many in their death throes, no longer cares who dies with them.
Basic six: The winners will be the 60% world population not part of the West. Hopefully, some of America's outlying colonies may avoid most of the destruction. We can only hope.
Nice tactical interception, Sarah, but you are wrong. There are no assumptions. Most wars today were precipitated, manipulated, and invariably managed by the global investment banker alliance; regardless of where initiated: NY, City of London, or Basel.
Every word I use has its genesis in evidence. You may wish to refute the evidence or doubt its relative validity, in which case, if your evidence is better, I will adopt it. So... go for it.
Don't enact their victory, Riley.

Lionel aka Bugey Libre writing from a collapsing France
I think this is one of the most important blog posts I've read in the last year. Not because of the information it provides, but because it is so incredibly important to remember all of these things, and yet there seem to be so few who take it to heart. In the non-stop drumbeat of war, nothing is more important than to pause again and again and ask yourself what you are doing and thinking and why and whether it could be otherwise. The pundits and their entourage are frighteningly often the exact mirror image of those they wish to hell. We've indeed been here before, countless times, and it's always the same frustrating story.
