Thanks Edward, I feel good in knowing that, human as you may be, you will endeavour to give us a truthful impression without the hyperbole that is surrounding this event. Intuitively I feel this is a significant happening and I would like to keep apprised but with all the bullshit everywhere I’m finding it harder and harder to find the time and energy to sort through it. Thanks again. Your input is greatly appreciated. War is a racket.

Thank you Riley! BUT...

Don't forget to consider the sky over Tbilissi, listen to the birds, consider the beauty of women, children playing... Listen to your breathing, moderate it, play with it... Remember you are somehow eternal, we at least are eternal together, all good souls, sufferers, everywhere... Smoke a good Tangier... Digest your beans properly...

In between Telegram, RT and all the sources of information you will check. Don't get drawn in them and like always give us the best, you human being, dedicated to us human beings.

MSNBC jumped on this story super quick. Crickets on Russia prevailing in the counter offensive. I smell a fake news event happening here. Kalibrated is also following. All's quiet in Rostov.

Prigozhin has taken the Southern Military District HQ -- it's been confirmed (via various video messages). Even Strelkov (who hates Prigozhin) has confirmed it: https://t.me/strelkovii/5644

Edward: it's a brilliant slight of hand. Prigozhyn could hardly keep a straight face during the outdoor sitdown in Rostov. He has 25-30,000 men. The best of the Wagner best are engaged in counter terrorism operations in Russia right now -- last night and today. Kim Dotcom thinks it's a diversion.

I don't think so, check these (translated) emails - https://streamfortyseven.substack.com/p/interesting-emails-from-prigozhin More: "On Saturday morning, a video appeared on Telegram that appears to show “negotiations” between Yevgeny Prigozhin, Deputy Defense Minister Yunus-Bek Yevkurov, and Deputy Chief of Staff Vladimir Alexeyev at the Southern Military District’s headquarters in Rostov-on-Don. The previous evening, Prigozhin accused the Russian Defense Ministry of carrying out a missile attack on a Wagner Group camp and announced his units were setting out on a “march of justice” against Russia’s military leadership. Overnight, Wagner fighters cordoned off multiple military and administrative buildings in Rostov-on-Don. Meduza is publishing a transcript of the conversation between Prigozhin, Yevkurov, and Alexeyev heard in the video." https://meduza.io/en/feature/2023/06/24/we-re-saving-russia

"Springtime for Hitler and Germany.... (ta te taa da) ... Winter for Poland and France ... ". Walk down memory lane with The Producers, Mel Brooks, 1967. We should troll the neo-cons bigtime with this song. I wonder if Tucker remembers this song (????)

Edward, would you be kind enough to mobilise your Russia-based readers as fellow Citizen Journalists to video/film/photograph to confirm/deny this event? Perhaps you could do a collab, host their footage/pics.

As they say, pics or it didn't happen.

This via a friend, who unfortunately seems to worship Anti Spiegel.

As luck would have it, my good friend Alina Lipp is in Rostov at the moment. She is in the city center and reports from there on her Telegram channel. For breaking news from that night, I recommend following Alina's breaking news channel .

Why do I feel like I've seen this TV show before?

Mikhail Khodorkovsky being behind Prigojine it appears that this one is a Space Lizard/City of London/CIA etc...And that he is trying to destroy Russia from inside. Doesn't it dear other commenters?

for those who need context: https://t.me/BellumActaNews/97741

I would be careful though. Voicing support for Prigozhin is much different than "backing" him (financially, etc.). For Khodorkovsky, this seems like an "enemy of my enemy is my friend" situation. Also, it's important to remember that Prigozhin has never once (at least as far as I know) threatened to topple Putin. He is after Shoigu and Gerasimov. But who knows? I am have very mixed feelings about Prigozhin, and to be honest, I don't quite trust him. I'll just do my best to try to relay what this wild guy is up to -- I guess I will leave it to the commenters to decide WHY :)

What globalist false flag event is it *this* time?

Russia attacking itself to justify nukes?

Prigozhin going rogue because he secretly works for the CIA?

Russia missiling Wagner because they caught wind of my remark that Wagner was fleeing the Ukrainian offensive (which happened then evaporated), and Russia opted to return to classic Russian WW2 tactics of 'shoot your fleeing soldiers'?

Wagner legitimately confused why globalist Putin would be missiling his own troops?

Prigozhin discovering he received the Cancer V... I mean Sputnik V cancer death shot and going 'screw it' and declaring war on Russia?

Prigozhin is surely a smart guy, right? He knows he can't take the whole of Russia... so, this thing reeks. Too early in the morning for a Kapp-Putsch.

This kind of thoughts do pop up in my mind too.

When we like to predict the near future, it is best chance to do right so when looking at the past.

Nato and VS and EU are acting for years like they wanted Putin to start a war. Putin is a globalist. He didn't start war, but a special operation. Last updates I got about reaching the goals of this special operation: taking care of russian ukrainian people to be russian russian people again and something with a sea trade route which should remain russian and both goals said to be achieved.

My first question is: there are documents of the former Ukranian pm and Putin agreed on getting the goals as mentioned above arranged without a war, but- forgive me if I am wrong- Zelenski refused to act according to the agreement the formal pm signed?

So my second question is: if the goals are achieved, why is the special operation still going?

And my third question is: is het widespread known that the Ukrainian-Russian war is actually the goal itself for US and EU, i.e. Nato? Like Nato has been taking care of starting/keeping wars going in favour of the US and some other countries profit too now and then, for many many years?

Isn't most likely, 3 options,

1 that Russian fighters don't want to fight no more for the sake of the globalist, when considering Putin is one of the globalists too, which he looks like to be concerning his acting and decisions in regards to wef nato vs etc?

2 us/nato is doing what they alsways do: keeping the war going, on their war to China.

What is more convenient than that Nato arranged a conflict by shooting and killing Prigozhins soldiers pretending Putin shot them? When Nato is going to 'help' Putin, they are a lot more in direction of China.

3 it is the same as US and NATO have done many times before to serve one or more of their following secret goals: it is ab action to divide and put people against each other, and they succeeded to do so in more or less weird (distraction) ways, when needed followed up by acting themselves like helpers but making everything worse on purpose

Second possible goal being served is offering distraction whathever people from whatever they need to be free to act secretly for some reason that is profitable for the one taking the secret and therefore illegal action

Thirth goal might be a power manipulation for example divide their opponents, which in this case probably can only become clear after the war would be over and lots of investigations when still being possibly held by one of the last honest investigator/journalist, investigation the international interests of countries hidden for 'the people'.

It also possible to be as simple as hell as counting 1 and 1 together, when it is absolutly irrelevant if the events look like one causes the other, only criterium is if the happened almost simultaneously:

In this case I would like to opt for NATO being defeated in Ukraine by russian and doesn't want to admit that.

In this case it could be possible NATO caused the victims in Russia, or Putin did, as being a globalist, to take care of saving the NATO from the loss of worldwide credibility. To people who still believed in NATO which are miraculously by far still most people.

Just some Ideas I like to reflect on with the people here, when you like it too of course;-)

I quite enjoyed your ideas.

Interesting thought on the whole 'kill prigozhin's troops to cover it up'. Hadn't considered that angle.

I've seen evidence the coup might be staged (covered tank barrels), but then... staged for what purpose? So Putin can go hard line authoritarian against the Russian public? As a false flag to fire off the nukes?

So all the other nations can screech 'terrorism' and go full Martial Law?

There is something we are not being told here.

What about Prigozhin's family? Where are they? Smells to heck.

I think we can use Deep Fake in many different senses. In fact have to. Maybe we start with Gorbachev in 1985 and perestroika and glasnost.
