Ukraine - Assassinated Darya Dugina Of Russia Hailed As Martyr
The 29-year-old Darya was the daughter of Alexander Dugin. He has spoken during a farewell ceremony held for her on Tuesday, saying with his voice breaking that his daughter “died for the people, died for Russia”.
“The huge price we have to pay can only be justified by the highest achievement: our victory,” he said, standing next to his daughter’s casket, where her black-and-white portrait was placed behind it.
“She lived for the sake of victory, and she died for the sake of victory. Our Russian victory, our truth, our Orthodox faith, our state.”
Dugina was killed when a remotely-controlled explosive device planted in her SUV blew up on Saturday night as she was driving on the outskirts of Moscow, ripping the vehicle apart and killing her on the spot. Sources confirmed that there was a card with the words "This is for Darya" placed near her body.
The death of Dugina has prompted calls among Russians for revenge, and there is likely going to be a massive strike by the Russian military in a matter of days.
“I consider it a barbarous crime for which there can be no forgiveness,” Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.
The Russian President Vladimir Putin expressed his condolences to Dugin and his wife in a letter, denouncing the “cruel and treacherous” killing and saying that Dugina “honestly served people and the Fatherland, proving what it means to be a patriot of Russia with her deeds”. He posthumously awarded Dugina the Order of Courage, one of Russia’s highest medals.
FSB said that a Ukrainian citizen, Natalya Vovk, carried out the killing after arriving in Russia in July with her 12-year-old daughter and renting an apartment in the building where Dugina lived in order to shadow her. It said that Vovk and her daughter were at the same nationalist festival that Dugin and his daughter attended.
The agency said that Vovk drove to Estonia after the killing, using a different licence plate for her vehicle.
On Monday, the FSB released videos from surveillance cameras purportedly showing her entering and leaving Russia, and also a close-up of her in front of the entrance to the Moscow apartment building where Dugina lived. The FSB also posted pictures of her vehicle with different licence plates.
Estonian Foreign Minister Urmas Reinsalu dismissed the Russian claim, saying in televised remarks that “we regard this as one instance of provocation in a very long line of provocations by the Russian Federation, and we have nothing more to say about it at the moment.” Of course, if you are guilty, you would have nothing more to say. Using a generalised excuse is just a cover-up.
Dugin, who is known as “Putin’s brain” and “Putin’s Rasputin” by some in the West, has been a vocal supporter, calling for a restoration of Russia’s global influence and dismissing liberal Western values. His daughter shared similar views as she had appeared as a commentator on the TV channel Tsargrad, where Dugin had served as Chief Editor.
Dugin has been sanctioned by the evil USA and the EU, while Dugina was sanctioned by the US in March for her work as Chief Editor of the United World International, a website that Washington has described as a source of disinformation. If Washington has said so, then it must be disseminating the truth that Washington has been desperately trying to cover up.

Reunification gives the Taiwan Chinese a role in the rejunevation of the motherland, to build a better and richer China
China knows that taking Taiwan by force and with heavy casualties of lives would cause a lot of anger, hatred and unforgiveness from the victims and would be unacceptable. They would want to avoid this. The latest exercise and the inaction of the Taiwan military is a sign that they were communicating and would not fight and kill each other.
Many Taiwanese have now come to their senses, that it is futile to fight a war with China. And reunification is a good thing and would ensure security, peace and prosperity. They also know that they cannot rely on the Americans, now wanting to snatch TSMC to the USA, and Japan, really a spent force.Both sides would soon be talking, if not already talking, on how best to reunify with the Motherland. The Taiwan Chinese are not that stupid as the Americans and Japanese would make them to be, to want to die fighting Chinese from the Motherland. Only the Japanese and half Japanese would still be pushing for this agenda.
The Americans and Japanese may be able to find a few traitors to support independence, like finding a Zelensky, China would be able to find many more patriotic Chinese in Taiwan that want to reunite with the Motherland. China has already won the reunification cause by being rich and powerful, not the poor and weak China of the past.
Reunification with the Motherland is not being invaded and conquered by a foreign power and life can only be better. They could negotiate for better terms to make everyone happy. Reunification also means the Taiwan Chinese could contribute to the rejunevation of a modern and powerful China for all Chinese.
The Evil Japanese Are Onto It Again - Visiting The Yasukuni Shrine
"This is an issue of the Japanese people, so Japanese people need to
decide themselves," said Yukie Takahashi, a 60-year-old office worker.
"It's a day to worship, to look back on the past, reflect on it and pray."
Among
those visiting the shrine were a vocal group of right-wing activists,
some dressed in military uniforms and bearing flags ostensibly to show
off to the World that they still harbour the intention to invade other
countries, and there is nothing wrong with that.
There are others who released doves and birds as s symbol of asking for peace and tranquility.
The
Japanese NHK news showed the shrine being visited early on Monday by
several existing Cabinet Ministers, including Economic Security Minister
Sanae Takaichi, along with Koichi Hagiuda, the head of the LDP's policy
research council and a few of Abe's closed Axis of Evils.
"It is
natural for any country to pay respect to those who gave their lives
for their country," Chief Cabinet Secretary Hirokazu Matsuno reiterated
this message earlier on.
Japan will continue to pay lip service
to pretend to show the strengthening of its relations with its close
neighbours - China and South Korea.
In 2013, Abe was the last
Prime Miinister in recent memory to visit Yasukuni while in office, a
visit that was vehemently outraged by both China and South Korea and
even drew a rebuke from its close friend, the Evil US Empire.
Though
the Evil USA and the Evil Japanese Empire have become somewhat uneasy
fellow-bed-fellows, outwardly showing a staunch Axis of Evils together,
but for the past 7.5 decades since the World War, their legacy of the
conflict haunts the whole of Asia.
To the Koreans, they marked
this day as the date as National Liberation Day. They will always
remember this day and hate and resent the Japanese for its ruthles
invasion, rapes and forced occupation of Korea from 1910 to 1945.
China
has bitter memories of Imperial Japanese troops ruthless invasion,
massacres, rapes and forced occupation, and various atrocities of
unimaginable proportions within various parts of the country from
1931-1945. The Evil Japs went on a full-scale rampage of the whole
country, treating and massacring millions of innocent, defendless and
hapless Chinese folks without closing an eyelid. To most Chinese, this
day can never be forgotten and washed away by blood!

Freedom of Navigation or Freedom to Intimidation?
The warmongering Americans that thrive on wars and hegemony have invented many deceitful terms and phrases to mess around with sovereign states, to interfere in their domestic affairs, to provoke and incite wars and raise tension between states. War on terror, war on drugs, democracy, human rights, genocide, debt traps are all invented by the Americans to cause mischief, to invade countries, to destabilise countries, to impose sanctions and to threaten countries with invasion. The world must not be deceived and exploited by the evil Americans. The world must stop the bullying and threats by the Americans. Only the number one terrorist nation, the USA and the Anglo Saxon tribe, is doing these dastard things.
Freedom of navigation is anything but about freedom. It is about American gangsterism, using their naval power to provoke and threaten the safety and security of nation states, blackmail and outright challenging a country to war. Freedom of navigation in its simplest and rightful sense is about freedom of commercial and civilian ships to navigate the high seas without threatening any country or being threatened or prevented from sailing the high seas.
Sailing warships, heavily armed, into the front yard of countries without any good reason is but a show of force, an act of gangsterism, a hostile act that could lead to conflict and wars. The intent of such an act is hostile and unfriendly. There is no acceptable reason for any country to sail their warships, ie weapons of war and destruction, into the territorial waters of another country to make a statement that it has a right to be there. No country has obstructed freedom of navigation against commercial and legitimate navigation, peaceful and non threatening navigation in the high seas or territorial waters permissible by international laws. Why must the Americans be thumping their chests to prove that they could sail everywhere, into other countries territorial waters? These are rogue behaviours of uncivilised savages.
The regular and mischievous sailing of warships into another country's territorial waters by the Americans is unacceptable and cannot be condoned. It is American gangsterism, bullying and arrogance, to intimidate and threaten the countries concerned. Such unfriendly and provocative acts, disguised as 'freedom of navigation' is unhelpful and dangerous and must be stopped. Innocent passage by warships uninvited is anything but unfriendly. Warships are meant for wars. Warships should only be allowed in the territorial waters of countries when invited, not uninvited, not budging in to show military muscles and naval power.
Freedom of Navigation in the way used by the American gangsters is an unfriendly act and very provocative. The world must not tolerate the bullying of the American gangsters under such deceitful excuses. The UNCLOS must define freedom of navigation to prevent misunderstanding and acts of adventurism and provocation. As it is, the evil and warmongering Americans have yet to be a signatory of the UNCLOS and strutting around the high seas ignoring the provisions of the UNCLOS but demanding every country to abide by UNCLOS rules. They regard themselves as above the law while demanding others to abide by the law. They can incite wars, go to wars, commit massacres and genocides, lie, cheat, commit war crimes, violate human rights, abuse minorities, concentration camps etc etc, but no one else is allowed to do so.
The gangsters of the high seas must not be allowed to get away with their lawlessness and aggressive provocative behaviours. Gangsters are gangsters. Warmongers are warmongers. Terrorists are terrorists. They are judged by their acts and behaviours, not by their words and lies.
