BATIUSHKA—We are still having our minds blown by President Putin’s Speech over a week ago. How many times we have listened to it and watched it? If I may say something personal, I can say that I have not even dared dream for over 40 years that a Russian leader would make such a speech. I thought I would die long before it would happen, even if it did happen. I was waiting for the end of the world and now hope has been given to us. The President said it all, summing up an evil millennium of Western history, starting with its worldwide plunder and ending in its shameful Woke ideologies, the denial and destruction of Spiritual Reality, National Sovereignty and Family Life.

WATCH: Assange Protests at UK Parliament & DOJ
9 minutes readConsortium News was on the ground in Washington and in Westminster on Saturday to bring you LIVE coverage of a major event in the movement to save Julian Assange. Thousands of supporters gathered in Parliament Square and began their walk around the Houses of Parliament, forming a hand-in-hand human chain that crossed Westminster Bridge, and back over Lambeth Bridge to completely surround Parliament. Six hours later, about 300 free press advocates carried a 240-foot yellow banner emblazoned with “Free Assange” around the Department of Justice building in Washington, D.C. and then heard a slate of speakers, including Jill Stein, Ben Cohen, Chris Hedges and John Kiriakou.

Ukraine’s European Lives Matter! Iraqi Vietnamese Asian MidEast African Latin Lives Didn’t!
19 minutes readJAY JANSON—Intense media coverage showing compassion for the six thousand lives taken by Russian military in the Ukraine is very humane. Little or no Western media attention for the many millions of lives taken by US/NATO in Asia, Africa, MidEast and Latin America is cruel and heartless. The 2003 US invasion and war that utterly destroyed prospering Iraqi society caused between 184,382 and 207,156 civilian deaths. The Lancet (British medical journal) conducted its own surveys and put the total figure at close to one million, which received much criticism from the establishment press. In 1995, Vietnam released its official estimate of the number of people killed during the US Vietnam War: as many as 2,000,000 civilians.

Putin’s September 30, 2022, speech – a commented reading
62 minutes readVLADIMIR PUTIN—Today, we are fighting for a just and free path, first of all for ourselves, for Russia, in order to leave dictate and despotism in the past. I am convinced that countries and peoples understand that a policy based on the exceptionalism of whoever it may be and the suppression of other cultures and peoples is inherently criminal, and that we must close this shameful chapter. The ongoing collapse of Western hegemony is irreversible. And I repeat: things will never be the same.
