This, I must admit has me quite concerned.  It is crazy, stupid behavior on the part of the US. (Come on, nothing happens unless the US wants it, allows it, directs it.). mrossol

That, I think has to be the big story:

In another likely US-led attack, a second Russian early warning radar has been hit that warns if Russia is under nuclear attack.

KYIV, May 27 (Reuters) – A Ukrainian drone targeted a long-range radar deep inside Russia on Sunday, the second such strike in a week on infrastructure used by Moscow to monitor Ukraine’s military activities, a Kyiv intelligence source said.

The source said the strike was aimed at a “Voronezh M” radar near the city of Orsk in the Orenburg region some 1,500 km from the closest territory held by Kyiv’s forces.

The source, who declined to be named, did not say if there was any damage,

There was no immediate comment from Moscow on the matter,although Russia’s Izvestia newspaper and other media outlets reported that a drone had come down in the Orenburg region on Sunday and that no civilian infrastructure had been hit.

The Kyiv source also confirmed reports of an earlier Ukrainian drone attack on a “Voronezh-DM” radar in southern Krasnodar region on May 22.

This is very provocative stuff—clearly the US is seeking to either elicit a major response from Russia or, possibly, to bluff Russia into giving up its long term aims. I’d be surprised if Russia takes the bait either way. Russia recognized long ago that they’re in a war with NATO and has been preparing for it.

To judge just how provocative this is, watch this 7 minute video—it’s excellent but, unfortunately, I can’t embed Rumble videos. In objective terms, as Chas Freeman put it today, the US is attempting to degrade Russia’s defenses against a nuclear attack by the US:

The Nuclear Radar

Brace yourselves! Regarding Reuters reporting that “There was no immediate comment from Moscow on the matter …” Freeman stated:

CF: I had a friend in the Chinese people’s Liberation Army who had the temerity to ask [his leadership]–China has a no first use policy on nuclear weapons; they won’t use them against a non-nuclear power and they they won’t use them unless they themselves are under nuclear attack–and my friend asked this question. He said, ‘Now that the United States has precision guided munitions and it can attack our nuclear deterrent with conventional warheads, what’s the difference between that and a nuclear attack? If the Americans are trying to to take out our nuclear deterrent using conventional weapons, is that different from attacking us with a nuclear weapon?’ His answer was, ‘No.’ … Well, we’ve just done the same thing to the Russians–not theoretically but actually. This is a very, very dangerous moment.

Did you understand what Freeman said? He said that the US has—at least arguably—launched the equivalent of a nuclear strike on Russia. If we degrade their early warning system (which is NOT as robust as ours) sufficiently, we would be in a position to launch a successful first strike. We know what we are threatening, and so do the Russians.

DD: On this point I’ve actually been a little bit surprised, at least publicly, [there has been] a very muted response from the Russians why why do you suppose that is?

CF: Because they’re figuring out what to do, that’s why. Years ago a very wise Foreign Service Officer, when I became alarmed about a lot of vociferous talk in Sudan about a coup against the then democratic government, he told me: Don’t worry about it. As long as they’re talking vociferously they’re not going to do anything. But you really have to worry when they go silent. So I’m not reassured by the relative silence of the Russians. It is not an indication of a decision one way or another, but they have to make a decision. They can’t allow us–through our Ukrainian proxies–to take apart their nuclear deterrent and the infrastructure that supports it and enables it. If I’m correct I believe I saw that there were only actually 10 of these stations surrounding Russia, and two of the 10 have been hit. It doesn’t appear that the damage is that severe, but the fact that they’ve been hit at all is obviously sending significant alarms into Moscow, into the Kremlin, as it would into the Pentagon and into Washington if the reverse had happened.

BREAKING: Great Britain, Canada, Latvia, Lithuania, the Netherlands, Poland, Finland, France, the Czech Republic, Sweden and Estonia have allowed Ukraine to strike targets inside the Russian Federation with their weapons.

So the West wants war. C’est la vie.

Did you notice what country isn’t on that list? Germany. Hmmm. Romania, to my surprise, is also absent. But the absence of Germany is the important fact for now.

Wag the Dog? Hey, Israel kicks its Dog. Please notice who the news readers are here. We’re talking the Dem base. Now, for Israel that doesn’t matter, at least not now, because they own the Uniparty, not just one or the other branch of it. The Zionists have shredded American credibility in front of the entire world, and they couldn’t care less.

Some developments on the Houthi front seem significant. First, the Houthis have, for the first time, struck a vessel in the Mediterranean, using cruise missiles:

BREAKING:

 For the first time Yemen hit a ship in the Mediterranean heading to Israel

The Yemeni Armed Forces announce:

“Carrying out 6 military operations that targeted 6 ships violating Yemen’s port blockade on Israeli ports.

This includes 3 ships in the Red Sea, 2 ships in the Arabian Sea & a ship in the Mediterranean Sea.”

The ship “MINERVA ANTONIA” in the Mediterranean Sea with a number of cruise missiles.

Second, the Houthis reportedly downed another MQ-9 Reaper drone—the sixth so far. This time, however, it appears that the drone—with its state of the art surveillance equipment—is basically intact:

Lastly, Georgia stood up for its sovereignty, resoundingly slapping down the veto of its Foreign Agent law by their French president:

Glenn Diesen @Glenn_Diesen

Georgia votes 84 in favour versus 4 against the new transparency law for NGOs.

– Georgia will not outsource its civil society to the US & EU, and instead remain a sovereign democratic country. The US is preparing to retaliate with sanctions.
