Will And Jada Smith Proves America Is Suffering From Toxic Femininity

Instead of toxic masculinity, we have seen the effects of toxic femininity. This is when these domineering woman emasculate their men.

Will Smith is suffering from this. That’s why a man who was laughing at a mild joke decided to go up on stage and slap a Chris Rock.

Now there are some blacks I have heard say, that white people can not speak on this incidence because it is a family affair. Well it happened at the mostly all white Oscars.

Will Smith of Chris Rock is not part of my family, I don’t give a damn if they are Black.

A MSNBC’s Host name Tiffany Cross says that White People Don’t Fully Understand Will Smith Slapping Chris Rock. Her and some of her brain dead guest seem to think what happen is a “BlackThing”.

As if to say that Whites can not understand the nuances of a black attacking a black. I call these the “Back To Africa Nigga’s”. They want to be know as African American even if they have never been to Africa. The Africans in Africa would not even except these negro’s.

The people from Africa don’t even talk about their skin color as much as liberal whites, and black people.

But the slap was not about black and white. The slap was about Jada taken Will’s balls and hanging them up on a keychain at their home.

He did not have a problem with the joke until he looked at Jada. We have a man like Will Smith, who has allowed is wife to embarrass him by sleeping with his sons friend.

She brings this damn fool on her show to emasculate him more in front of the whole world. She could have told him I have been taken the pipe from this young guy name  August Alsina.

Yet she brought this cuck on her show to tell him in front of the world. And he sets there have her strip his manhood on the television. He and her even laughed about this “entanglement” while on her show. Yet Chris Rock makes a mild joke and Jada gives him the side eye.

And this damn fool does something that will never be forgotten. And it is all because he is suffering from Toxic Femininity at home. Jada has no respect for Will Smith and it shows.

Yet you have some men who are being led by these toxic domineering woman. They come on shows and tell these emasculated men what to be offended about.

I see that some of these same woke blacks where commenting on Kyle Rittenhouse. They where calling him a white supremacist even though he is white and everyone he shot was white.

So why are you in the Rittenhouse and “Whites” family business. These are the same woke blacks that say white people can not wear braids. They call it appropriation of Black culture. So if blacks wear blonde weave is that called appropriation of white culture? Or when they wear asian weave, is that appropriation of Asian culture?

If blacks go to the Oscars are they acting white since blacks were not really allowed when it began. When Hattie McDaniel won her Oscar in 1939. They placed her at a segregated table at the back of the awards show. She was not allow entry into the “whites only” after party.

But what I’m sick of is when blacks do something stupid they say that whites can not comment on their stupidity.

I believe that all races can comment on every story if it’s news. If you are a public figure, and you break the law, or do something stupid. You should expect for people to speak on your stupidity.

But I don’t want to go to far down that road, because I want to focus on this toxic femininity. These are the women that strip the men of their dignity, while saying “I’m a strong woman.” Well I got news for you. Our grandmothers, and mothers where strong. And they did not need to emasculate their men to do it.

And strong men do not need to degrade their women to look strong. A lot of the feminization of young boys and men is because these women are not happy with themselves. There is no need for a woman to act like the man of the house to be consider as a strong woman.

If the truth were told most women are the boss of the house. But some are not happy with being the boss. They have to take what God meant as good and destroy it.

Gabrielle Union and Dwyane Wade is another case of Toxic Femininity. This fool describes himself as the helpmeet for her. That’s why the son is mixed up. And that is why Will Smith and Jada Smiths kids are mixed up.

Even in movies they have the men or boys mixed up because their mothers where overbearing. Look at Norman Bates. That was one mixed up young man.

And even movies like Basic Instinct Sharon Stone was crazy and wanted to control the men she slept with. Some women do it in different ways. There are some woman that use sex to control a man. They treat him like a boy until they want him to do something that requires a man. Then they say “why don’t you man up”. Well you have been treating him like a boy for 10 or 20 years.

Don’t expect him to turn on his man switch now. Notice how most men act around their women. They act like little boys needing their mothers approval. They can’t even watch a fight, or an action movie without permission.

If they watch a ballgame they have to get what they call their “man cave.” Because she does not allow him to make noise where she can hear him. Hell in the old days the whole house was the fathers man cave.

He did not go around beating his chest talking about he has a man cave. That proves something if you feel the need to talk about having a man cave.

They have women acting like the savior on many movies now. Because it is upsetting to have women being rescued in a movie to the new gang of feminist.

I’m not saying a woman can not hunt, fish, are even hike. But she does not have to act like a man?

Will Smith slapped Chris Rock because he has to hang his testicles up on a key chain when he gets home. Jada does not allow Will to stand up when he is urinating. If she catches him standing and urinating. That means he will get handcuffed and slapped around.

So he can’t slap Jada for treating him like the cuck he is. And when she was annoyed about what Chris Rock said. She gave him a look that meant something. And I can interpret that look in the Ghetto vernacular if you would like.

That look meant. “Nigga If You Don’t Get Your Black Ass Up On The Stage And Slap This Nigga.” I will place you balls in a vice when we get home. So he marched up on that stage and embarrassed himself in front of the world.

I heard another actress say she can’t keep a man, or it’s hard for her to date. I think she once said “I think it’s very hard to be in a relationship with me.” Something on that level. Charlize Theron says that it is hard for her to keep a man. It has nothing to do with her “cleaning out her boyfriends closet while he was out of town.” I can tell her the real reason she can not keep a man. She always has a bunch of gay men hanging around, and she has mixed her adopted kids up also.

No real man wants to come home and see, and hear a bunch of gay men at the house gossiping like woman. They don’t even want to hear women gossiping like women.

But even the movie roles she takes. I know it is acting but I’m not talking about the movie Monster. In Atomic Blonde she is a little to manly for my liking. I know she is supposed to be a killer. But there are other woman playing killers. Jessica Chastain was a killer in “Ava”. She did not act like a man.

Sasha Luss was an assassin in “Anna” and she did not come off as a manly. Helen Mirren was also in the movie and she has been a killer in other movies but she did not come off to manly.

The feminist movement has had a lot to do with this. They think that they must hate men in order to want equal rights. The question is, has all of these domineering women since the feminist movement started, made these women more happy?

Most of the feminist that say they want equal rights really want more rights than men. Women are more prone to put family, or friends before a career. It is nothing wrong with that. It just proves men and women are different, and they will never be the same.

But there are women like Hillary Clinton. The feminist love her, but the truth is no one would have ever talked about her being president if it where not for Bill Clinton. Bill Clinton has raped woman, and sexual harassed women. Yet the feminist love Hillary who protected Bill the rapist.

And you will notice that Hillary has become more, and more butchey, as she has gotten older. It has nothing to do with her age. Some older women are more feminine as they become older.

They say she curses out Bill regular. Don’t forget how she talked to the Secret Service men when Bill was president. That’s because she is suffering from toxic femininity. I wish everyone could treat each other with respect. And that does not mean I must agree with what you say.

When women degrade their husband, or man it does no good for society. Especially if they do it in front of the children. Don’t ever think it will end well when you do this. Father’s once got respect, and now we are promoting stay at home dads. There is no better way to strip a man of who he is then, asking him to stay home and play mommy.

Call it chauvinistic but we see that young men are not better under this “Toxic Femininity”. So if you want a better society, we better tone done that testosterone in the women.

The Left Attempting To Take Parental Rights From Parents, Pushing So-called “Don’t Say Gay” Bill

The Left Attempting To Take Parental Rights From Parents, Pushing So-called “Don’t Say Gay”

The Bill is HB 1557 and would require schools to notify parents if they become aware of changes in the student’s mental, emotional, or physical health

These left leaning freaks want to play psychologist, and parent with other people’s children. That’s really what it all boils down to.

They think that the village of child molesters, mentally confused, and reprobates should have more say over your children than you do.

Part of the Bills states “classroom instruction by school personnel or third parties on sexual orientation or gender identity may not occur in kindergarten through grade 3 or in a manner that is not age-appropriate or developmentally appropriate for students in accordance with state standards.”

Hell I don’t think it goes far enough. They don’t teach the kids to write in cursive any longer in school. And it is mainly because they are too busy with indoctrinating your children.

Math is racist and offensive those on the Left will say. Because as you might not know, that the number 1 may be racist against another number 1. And the number 1 that is racist may not know that they are racist. We can call it a systemic racism, that is hid in American culture. Only a select few can see this hidden racism.

I believe that there is a committee that meets to determine what is racist, and what is not racist. I also think that this same committee meets to talk about new science. It is not real science it is what the CDC might call “the science is changing daily.”

This same committee meets to tell you that male, and female terms are outdated. These archaic so we will need to come up with phrases like. “What are your pronouns?”

You see a noun is a person, place or thing. A pronoun can replace a noun. For instance you can after you have spoken of a person by name. You can then say she or he did this, or that. This committee of “Wokeness”, says that not only can pronouns replace a noun. But you can not exchange the he, for a she. They have went so far as to say he can be a who, or a who.

My six grade teacher would have failed those from the “woke” community with this butchering of nouns, and pronouns.

The committee says asking kids to sit down and learn may come off as teaching the kids to be white. This is according to the same village idiots who now want to force homosexuality on kindergartners.

Because they be damn if they will allow parents to be the ones who teach sex education to their own kids.

How about the school teach history, math, reading, biology, and science at school. And the parents will be responsible for teaching sex to their own children at home.

Since the parents are the ones who are supporting the kids. The parents are the ones responsible for taking the kids to the doctor when they are sick

The parents are responsible for taking the children to the dentist for their teeth. And they are responsible for their school cloths, and school supplies.

We have more teachers than ever, getting caught being sexually active with students than ever.

And now they want to sexualize children even younger, to groom them for perverts who are just waiting.

How did I society become so sick? I can tell you how. They decided to kick God Almighty out of the school system. Think about that? You can’t talk about God in school. You surely better not mention Jesus Christ name in the holy walks of so-called Public School.

But you can tell a 5 year old about sexual choices in the school. Parents can’t, and should not allow this smut to be taught to their children.

The public school system, is not really a public school system. Because they are saying that the public school is not open to the public, which also includes parents.

They are not accountable to the public, and that includes parents. They are run by the government, and the mob called Teachers Union. They are regulated by the government.

They are funded by the government, through your tax dollars. But now they are saying you still have no say, as to what is taught to your own kids.

Everything that is taught in the schools are approved by the government. So they technically should be called government schools.

And know they are saying even if the parents say, this goes against their religious belief. They say to the parents, You are bigots for not wanting perversion to be taught to your kids at school. “We will tell you what your kids should believe.”

Homosexuality is the most radical religion out there now. They are far more radical than the most extreme Islam cult.

Nothing is pushed more in the west than homosexuality. The most basic science of biology is being ignored with this transgender, branch of homosexuality.

They are saying that a man can get pregnant now. Even though it is impossible to become pregnant without ovaries.

You will also need to have a menstrual cycle. No man has ever had a menstrual cycle. But these dishonest mentally mixed up people. Will get a woman who was born a woman. And they say now that this woman can call herself a man. Because she was born in the wrong body.

And people in society say this is normal, and we should go along with this. And if you do not go along with this, it is because you have homophobia.

No I have stupid-phobia. I hate stupidity, and anti-biology. And so the people who have been saying follow science, are now saying ignore the science.

And if you don’t ignore science. Someone may get a bad case of hurt feelings. And that is the 11th commandment that God Almighty left out on Mt. Sinai. “Thou shall not speak the truth and hurt thy neighbors feels.”

Parents you are at war for the hearts and minds of your children. The children are a gift from God Almighty. And you should not allow anyone to destroy such a precious gift that God has given you.

US Government And The Media Are Lying About Bio Labs in Ukraine

The state-sponsored Russian media outlet RIA Novosti released documents on Sunday that the Ministry of Defense claims are evidence that Ukraine was undertaking research in U.S.-funded Biolabs. The Russians say the labs can be used to develop bioweapons.
We can’t read the documents or confirm their reliability, but they are scant.
Ria Novosti is a propaganda outfit, but there are US Biolabs in Ukraine. However, the US says they are not used for bioweapons. They are allegedly destroying the pathogens, such as hemorrhagic fever and the Hanta virus, as Russian forces threaten the labs, according to Interfax.
Major General Igor Konashenkov, an official representative of the Russian Ministry of Defense, provided the information to journalists. Moscow said that the documents, allegedly originating from employees of Ukrainian biological laboratories, confirmed that “components of biological weapons were being developed in Ukraine, in close proximity to Russian territory,” as reported by RIA Novosti.
According to the military, after the start of the special operation, “the Pentagon had serious fears” that the world would become aware of the conduct of secret biological experiments on the territory of Ukraine. To hide the violation by Washington and Kyiv of the first article of the UN Convention on the Prohibition of Bacteriological (Biological) and Toxin Weapons, the Ukrainian Ministry of Health sent an instruction to all bio laboratories to urgently eliminate stocks of dangerous pathogens, the department added.
“We have received documentation from employees of Ukrainian biological laboratories on the emergency destruction of especially dangerous pathogens on February 24 — the causative agents of plague, anthrax, tularemia, cholera, and other deadly diseases,” Konashenkov said.

In the near future, the Russian Defense Ministry intends to present the results of the analysis of the received documents.
LAVROV REPEATS THE CLAIM
At a presser on Thursday, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov accused the United States of assisting the Ukrainians with the development of ‘biological warfare facilities’ in Kyiv and Odesa, citing the data but not producing the evidence.
“And now they are concerned that they may lose control over these labs,” he argued. “And you know what it may be like in the future. And the Americans decline flatly and resolutely to start an inspection mechanism as part of the convention for the prohibition of chemical weapons. And they build new chemical and biological facilities all across Russian borders.”
“And, you know, many other developments happen,” Lavrov went on. “The CIA has been on the ground in droves, and they have been training the Ukrainian army, not to wage a war with Poland, apparently. And when developments in Iraq happened, when the United States claimed it was a threat to the U.S. national security, did anyone ask back then why the United States back then decided to bring a country 10,000 kilometers off its coast to order, because the U.S. is a great power?”

“When Russia says there is a threat to us, they start telling us that there is not a threat at all, but you know, we will decide what is needed to provide for our security,” Lavrov stated. “And it’s close and next to our borders, we will not go 10,000 kilometers away to enforce our rules.”
Russia is referring to the United States’ invasion of Iraq in 2003 and the WMD issue as a pretext for invading Ukraine. On the other hand, the New York Times reported that Iraq had old stockpiles of WMDs that were discovered by U.S. soldiers. We’ll never know.
He Says the US Is Violating Protocol
In May 2020, Lavrov accused the United States of “categorically opposing the adoption of a protocol to the convention of banning biological and toxin weapons, which would establish a mechanism to verify compliance by member countries with their obligation not to produce such weapons.”

“The United States’ reluctance to ensure transparency of its military-biological activities in different regions of the world, of course, raises questions about what is really happening and what goals are being pursued,” Lavrov said at a news conference after a virtual meeting with foreign ministers of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO).

“These laboratories are densely formed along the perimeter of the borders of the Russian Federation, and, accordingly, next to the borders of the People’s Republic of China,” Lavrov added.
On Monday, Lavrov discussed the prospect of reinstating the nuclear deal with his Iranian counterpart Hossein Amir Abdollahian by phone, according to the Russian foreign ministry. Russia and China are actually bragging about the deal they helped facilitate with the US for Iran.
Diplomatic relations between Russia and Ukraine thus appear to be deadlocked amid a Putin-authorized invasion of his Eastern European neighbor. A high-ranking Russian negotiator claimed on Monday that the Ministry of Defense has evidence Ukraine developed biological weapons components.’
RIA Novosti reported that data obtained by the Russian Ministry of Defense on Ukraine’s purported development of biological weapons components “confirm that the Russian Federation had good reasons for conducting a special military operation to demilitarize Ukraine,” said Leonid Slutsky, head of the Duma Committee on International Affairs and a member of the Russian delegation at the talks with Ukraine.
As earlier reported, a spokesman for the Russian Defense Ministry, Major General Igor Konashenkov, said that the Russian Defense Ministry would provide an “analysis of documents” on a program to create biological weapons components in Ukraine. Becker News translated and analyzed the documents here.
Slutsky also noted that, on February 24, according to the Ukrainian-language documents produced by Russia, laboratory staff in Ukraine received an order to immediately destroy especially dangerous pathogens, including the causative agents of ‘plague, anthrax, tularemia, cholera’ and other deadly diseases.
“We are getting more and more confirmation that Russia had more than good reasons for conducting a special military operation to demilitarize Ukraine,” Slutsky claimed on his Telegram channel.
The Duma delegate also noted that Moscow had repeatedly warned that U.S. bio laboratories, far from pursuing peaceful purposes, were located in a number of post-Soviet countries.
“But the so-called” world community “which today is going into Russophobic fits, was silent and simply “closed its eyes,” Slutsky claimed. Now, Washington and Kyiv’s “blatant violation of their international obligations, primarily the Convention on the Prohibition of the Development, Production and Stockpiling of Bacteriological (Biological) and toxin weapons and on their destruction (BTWC), has become obvious. Just as it is obvious that it should be the subject of a separate investigation, including by the UN structures. If, of course, we talk about this in the coordinate system of objectivity and impartiality,” he added.
The US media is worthless. They don’t investigate and just keep calling people conspiracy theorists if they question the labs. Information would be better.
The only thing we can be sure of with this conflict is everyone is lying, and we shouldn’t go to war with Russia. Putin may be a madman as so many say but Biden’s missing his mental faculties and so are the people he put in charge.

CDC Is Lying And Withholding Covid Data Over Fears Of Misinterpretation

The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is reportedly withholding key data related to the Chinese coronavirus over fears of misinterpretation.

Throughout the pandemic, the federal health agency has withheld a mountain of data, publishing what the New York Times described as “only a tiny fraction of the data it has collected, several people familiar with the data said.” This became even more evident when the CDC released data on booster shots, failing to provide fully detailed information for those ages 18-49 — and that is only one small example of the information withheld from the American people.

The federal health agency, however, is defending its actions, asserting the data is “not ready for prime time,” Kristen Nordlund, a spokeswoman for the CDC, said. She added that it is a “priority when gathering any data is to ensure that it’s accurate and actionable,” but also told the outlet that data is being withheld, in part, because officials fear it will be “misinterpreted.”
This is not the first time officials have admitted that the CDC is failing to provide sufficient data on key items related to the Chinese coronavirus. During a November 2021 appearance on Face the Nation, Dr. Anthony Fauci, President Biden’s chief medical adviser, admitted that the CDC was withholding data, specifically on breakthrough infections — infections occurring in vaccinated individuals.
“It’s a very complicated situation. And often the public doesn’t hear yet in time things that are being collected. So there’s a lot of data, clearly a lot of data, that’s being collected by the CDC that people don’t know about yet,” Fauci said at the time:
So we need to make sure in real time we get that data out. Historically, when you’re not in a pandemic, you can collect data, you can analyze it, you could talk about it and then you could look back and say this is what we’ve done. But when you’re dealing with a pandemic, you’ve got to get that out in real time so your policies can be dictated by data that occurred relatively recently, not data that occurred four or five months ago.
“But is there data being collected now in the United States about breakthrough infections that the public doesn’t know about?” Face the Nation’s Margaret Brennan asked.
“Yes, yes. Yes. The CDC is collecting data, yes,” Fauci confirmed.
“Beyond just health care workers, everyday people. You have an idea of what’s happening with breakthrough infections?” she pressed.
“I don’t have the data for you right now, that’s obviously- we’ll have to get the CDC to get us that,” Fauci responded.
The admission comes as doubt swirls around the trustworthiness of the CDC, which has been accused of “using science as political propaganda.”

The Full Transcript Of Vladimir Putin’s Televised Address on Ukraine

President of Russia Vladimir Putin: Citizens of Russia, friends,

I consider it necessary today to speak again about the tragic events in Donbass and the key aspects of ensuring the security of Russia.

I will begin with what I said in my address on February 21, 2022. I spoke about our biggest concerns and worries, and about the fundamental threats which irresponsible Western politicians created for Russia consistently, rudely and unceremoniously from year to year. I am referring to the eastward expansion of NATO, which is moving its military infrastructure ever closer to the Russian border.

It is a fact that over the past 30 years we have been patiently trying to come to an agreement with the leading NATO countries regarding the principles of equal and indivisible security in Europe. In response to our proposals, we invariably faced either cynical deception and lies or attempts at pressure and blackmail, while the North Atlantic alliance continued to expand despite our protests and concerns. Its military machine is moving and, as I said, is approaching our very border.

Why is this happening? Where did this insolent manner of talking down from the height of their exceptionalism, infallibility and all-permissiveness come from? What is the explanation for this contemptuous and disdainful attitude to our interests and absolutely legitimate demands?

The answer is simple. Everything is clear and obvious. In the late 1980s, the Soviet Union grew weaker and subsequently broke apart. That experience should serve as a good lesson for us, because it has shown us that the paralysis of power and will is the first step towards complete degradation and oblivion. We lost confidence for only one moment, but it was enough to disrupt the balance of forces in the world.

As a result, the old treaties and agreements are no longer effective. Entreaties and requests do not help. Anything that does not suit the dominant state, the powers that be, is denounced as archaic, obsolete and useless. At the same time, everything it regards as useful is presented as the ultimate truth and forced on others regardless of the cost, abusively and by any means available. Those who refuse to comply are subjected to strong-arm tactics.

What I am saying now does not concerns only Russia, and Russia is not the only country that is worried about this. This has to do with the entire system of international relations, and sometimes even US allies. The collapse of the Soviet Union led to a redivision of the world, and the norms of international law that developed by that time – and the most important of them, the fundamental norms that were adopted following WWII and largely formalised its outcome – came in the way of those who declared themselves the winners of the Cold War.

Of course, practice, international relations and the rules regulating them had to take into account the changes that took place in the world and in the balance of forces. However, this should have been done professionally, smoothly, patiently, and with due regard and respect for the interests of all states and one’s own responsibility. Instead, we saw a state of euphoria created by the feeling of absolute superiority, a kind of modern absolutism, coupled with the low cultural standards and arrogance of those who formulated and pushed through decisions that suited only themselves. The situation took a different turn.

There are many examples of this. First a bloody military operation was waged against Belgrade, without the UN Security Council’s sanction but with combat aircraft and missiles used in the heart of Europe. The bombing of peaceful cities and vital infrastructure went on for several weeks. I have to recall these facts, because some Western colleagues prefer to forget them, and when we mentioned the event, they prefer to avoid speaking about international law, instead emphasising the circumstances which they interpret as they think necessary.

Then came the turn of Iraq, Libya and Syria. The illegal use of military power against Libya and the distortion of all the UN Security Council decisions on Libya ruined the state, created a huge seat of international terrorism, and pushed the country towards a humanitarian catastrophe, into the vortex of a civil war, which has continued there for years. The tragedy, which was created for hundreds of thousands and even millions of people not only in Libya but in the whole region, has led to a large-scale exodus from the Middle East and North Africa to Europe.

A similar fate was also prepared for Syria. The combat operations conducted by the Western coalition in that country without the Syrian government’s approval or UN Security Council’s sanction can only be defined as aggression and intervention.

But the example that stands apart from the above events is, of course, the invasion of Iraq without any legal grounds. They used the pretext of allegedly reliable information available in the United States about the presence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. To prove that allegation, the US Secretary of State held up a vial with white power, publicly, for the whole world to see, assuring the international community that it was a chemical warfare agent created in Iraq. It later turned out that all of that was a fake and a sham, and that Iraq did not have any chemical weapons. Incredible and shocking but true. We witnessed lies made at the highest state level and voiced from the high UN rostrum. As a result we see a tremendous loss in human life, damage, destruction, and a colossal upsurge of terrorism.

Overall, it appears that nearly everywhere, in many regions of the world where the United States brought its law and order, this created bloody, non-healing wounds and the curse of international terrorism and extremism. I have only mentioned the most glaring but far from only examples of disregard for international law.
This array includes promises not to expand NATO eastwards even by an inch. To reiterate: they have deceived us, or, to put it simply, they have played us. Sure, one often hears that politics is a dirty business. It could be, but it shouldn’t be as dirty as it is now, not to such an extent. This type of con-artist behaviour is contrary not only to the principles of international relations but also and above all to the generally accepted norms of morality and ethics. Where is justice and truth here? Just lies and hypocrisy all around.

Incidentally, US politicians, political scientists and journalists write and say that a veritable “empire of lies” has been created inside the United States in recent years. It is hard to disagree with this – it is really so. But one should not be modest about it: the United States is still a great country and a system-forming power. All its satellites not only humbly and obediently say yes to and parrot it at the slightest pretext but also imitate its behaviour and enthusiastically accept the rules it is offering them. Therefore, one can say with good reason and confidence that the whole so-called Western bloc formed by the United States in its own image and likeness is, in its entirety, the very same “empire of lies.”

As for our country, after the disintegration of the USSR, given the entire unprecedented openness of the new, modern Russia, its readiness to work honestly with the United States and other Western partners, and its practically unilateral disarmament, they immediately tried to put the final squeeze on us, finish us off, and utterly destroy us. This is how it was in the 1990s and the early 2000s, when the so-called collective West was actively supporting separatism and gangs of mercenaries in southern Russia. What victims, what losses we had to sustain and what trials we had to go through at that time before we broke the back of international terrorism in the Caucasus! We remember this and will never forget.

Properly speaking, the attempts to use us in their own interests never ceased until quite recently: they sought to destroy our traditional values and force on us their false values that would erode us, our people from within, the attitudes they have been aggressively imposing on their countries, attitudes that are directly leading to degradation and degeneration, because they are contrary to human nature. This is not going to happen. No one has ever succeeded in doing this, nor will they succeed now.
Despite all that, in December 2021, we made yet another attempt to reach agreement with the United States and its allies on the principles of European security and NATO’s non-expansion. Our efforts were in vain. The United States has not changed its position. It does not believe it necessary to agree with Russia on a matter that is critical for us. The United States is pursuing its own objectives, while neglecting our interests.

Of course, this situation begs a question: what next, what are we to expect? If history is any guide, we know that in 1940 and early 1941 the Soviet Union went to great lengths to prevent war or at least delay its outbreak. To this end, the USSR sought not to provoke the potential aggressor until the very end by refraining or postponing the most urgent and obvious preparations it had to make to defend itself from an imminent attack. When it finally acted, it was too late.

As a result, the country was not prepared to counter the invasion by Nazi Germany, which attacked our Motherland on June 22, 1941, without declaring war. The country stopped the enemy and went on to defeat it, but this came at a tremendous cost. The attempt to appease the aggressor ahead of the Great Patriotic War proved to be a mistake which came at a high cost for our people. In the first months after the hostilities broke out, we lost vast territories of strategic importance, as well as millions of lives. We will not make this mistake the second time. We have no right to do so.

Those who aspire to global dominance have publicly designated Russia as their enemy. They did so with impunity. Make no mistake, they had no reason to act this way. It is true that they have considerable financial, scientific, technological, and military capabilities. We are aware of this and have an objective view of the economic threats we have been hearing, just as our ability to counter this brash and never-ending blackmail. Let me reiterate that we have no illusions in this regard and are extremely realistic in our assessments.
As for military affairs, even after the dissolution of the USSR and losing a considerable part of its capabilities, today’s Russia remains one of the most powerful nuclear states. Moreover, it has a certain advantage in several cutting-edge weapons. In this context, there should be no doubt for anyone that any potential aggressor will face defeat and ominous consequences should it directly attack our country.

At the same time, technology, including in the defence sector, is changing rapidly. One day there is one leader, and tomorrow another, but a military presence in territories bordering on Russia, if we permit it to go ahead, will stay for decades to come or maybe forever, creating an ever mounting and totally unacceptable threat for Russia.

Even now, with NATO’s eastward expansion the situation for Russia has been becoming worse and more dangerous by the year. Moreover, these past days NATO leadership has been blunt in its statements that they need to accelerate and step up efforts to bring the alliance’s infrastructure closer to Russia’s borders. In other words, they have been toughening their position. We cannot stay idle and passively observe these developments. This would be an absolutely irresponsible thing to do for us.

Any further expansion of the North Atlantic alliance’s infrastructure or the ongoing efforts to gain a military foothold of the Ukrainian territory are unacceptable for us. Of course, the question is not about NATO itself. It merely serves as a tool of US foreign policy. The problem is that in territories adjacent to Russia, which I have to note is our historical land, a hostile “anti-Russia” is taking shape. Fully controlled from the outside, it is doing everything to attract NATO armed forces and obtain cutting-edge weapons.

For the United States and its allies, it is a policy of containing Russia, with obvious geopolitical dividends. For our country, it is a matter of life and death, a matter of our historical future as a nation. This is not an exaggeration; this is a fact. It is not only a very real threat to our interests but to the very existence of our state and to its sovereignty. It is the red line which we have spoken about on numerous occasions. They have crossed it.

This brings me to the situation in Donbass. We can see that the forces that staged the coup in Ukraine in 2014 have seized power, are keeping it with the help of ornamental election procedures and have abandoned the path of a peaceful conflict settlement. For eight years, for eight endless years we have been doing everything possible to settle the situation by peaceful political means. Everything was in vain.

As I said in my previous address, you cannot look without compassion at what is happening there. It became impossible to tolerate it. We had to stop that atrocity, that genocide of the millions of people who live there and who pinned their hopes on Russia, on all of us. It is their aspirations, the feelings and pain of these people that were the main motivating force behind our decision to recognise the independence of the Donbass people’s republics.

I would like to additionally emphasise the following. Focused on their own goals, the leading NATO countries are supporting the far-right nationalists and neo-Nazis in Ukraine, those who will never forgive the people of Crimea and Sevastopol for freely making a choice to reunite with Russia.
They will undoubtedly try to bring war to Crimea just as they have done in Donbass, to kill innocent people just as members of the punitive units of Ukrainian nationalists and Hitler’s accomplices did during the Great Patriotic War. They have also openly laid claim to several other Russian regions.

If we look at the sequence of events and the incoming reports, the showdown between Russia and these forces cannot be avoided. It is only a matter of time. They are getting ready and waiting for the right moment. Moreover, they went as far as aspire to acquire nuclear weapons. We will not let this happen.

I have already said that Russia accepted the new geopolitical reality after the dissolution of the USSR. We have been treating all new post-Soviet states with respect and will continue to act this way. We respect and will respect their sovereignty, as proven by the assistance we provided to Kazakhstan when it faced tragic events and a challenge in terms of its statehood and integrity. However, Russia cannot feel safe, develop, and exist while facing a permanent threat from the territory of today’s Ukraine.

Let me remind you that in 2000–2005 we used our military to push back against terrorists in the Caucasus and stood up for the integrity of our state. We preserved Russia. In 2014, we supported the people of Crimea and Sevastopol. In 2015, we used our Armed Forces to create a reliable shield that prevented terrorists from Syria from penetrating Russia. This was a matter of defending ourselves. We had no other choice.

The same is happening today. They did not leave us any other option for defending Russia and our people, other than the one we are forced to use today. In these circumstances, we have to take bold and immediate action. The people’s republics of Donbass have asked Russia for help.

In this context, in accordance with Article 51 (Chapter VII) of the UN Charter, with permission of Russia’s Federation Council, and in execution of the treaties of friendship and mutual assistance with the Donetsk People’s Republic and the Lugansk People’s Republic, ratified by the Federal Assembly on February 22, I made a decision to carry out a special military operation.

The purpose of this operation is to protect people who, for eight years now, have been facing humiliation and genocide perpetrated by the Kiev regime. To this end, we will seek to demilitarise and denazify Ukraine, as well as bring to trial those who perpetrated numerous bloody crimes against civilians, including against citizens of the Russian Federation.

It is not our plan to occupy the Ukrainian territory. We do not intend to impose anything on anyone by force. At the same time, we have been hearing an increasing number of statements coming from the West that there is no need any more to abide by the documents setting forth the outcomes of World War II, as signed by the totalitarian Soviet regime. How can we respond to that?

The outcomes of World War II and the sacrifices our people had to make to defeat Nazism are sacred. This does not contradict the high values of human rights and freedoms in the reality that emerged over the post-war decades. This does not mean that nations cannot enjoy the right to self-determination, which is enshrined in Article 1 of the UN Charter.

Let me remind you that the people living in territories which are part of today’s Ukraine were not asked how they want to build their lives when the USSR was created or after World War II. Freedom guides our policy, the freedom to choose independently our future and the future of our children. We believe that all the peoples living in today’s Ukraine, anyone who want to do this, must be able to enjoy this right to make a free choice.

In this context I would like to address the citizens of Ukraine. In 2014, Russia was obliged to protect the people of Crimea and Sevastopol from those who you yourself call “nats.” The people of Crimea and Sevastopol made their choice in favour of being with their historical homeland, Russia, and we supported their choice. As I said, we could not act otherwise.

The current events have nothing to do with a desire to infringe on the interests of Ukraine and the Ukrainian people. They are connected with the defending Russia from those who have taken Ukraine hostage and are trying to use it against our country and our people.
I reiterate: we are acting to defend ourselves from the threats created for us and from a worse peril than what is happening now. I am asking you, however hard this may be, to understand this and to work together with us so as to turn this tragic page as soon as possible and to move forward together, without allowing anyone to interfere in our affairs and our relations but developing them independently, so as to create favourable conditions for overcoming all these problems and to strengthen us from within as a single whole, despite the existence of state borders. I believe in this, in our common future.

I would also like to address the military personnel of the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Comrade officers,

Your fathers, grandfathers and great-grandfathers did not fight the Nazi occupiers and did not defend our common Motherland to allow today’s neo-Nazis to seize power in Ukraine. You swore the oath of allegiance to the Ukrainian people and not to the junta, the people’s adversary which is plundering Ukraine and humiliating the Ukrainian people.
I urge you to refuse to carry out their criminal orders. I urge you to immediately lay down arms and go home. I will explain what this means: the military personnel of the Ukrainian army who do this will be able to freely leave the zone of hostilities and return to their families.

I want to emphasise again that all responsibility for the possible bloodshed will lie fully and wholly with the ruling Ukrainian regime.

I would now like to say something very important for those who may be tempted to interfere in these developments from the outside. No matter who tries to stand in our way or all the more so create threats for our country and our people, they must know that Russia will respond immediately, and the consequences will be such as you have never seen in your entire history. No matter how the events unfold, we are ready. All the necessary decisions in this regard have been taken. I hope that my words will be heard.

Citizens of Russia,

Bible Verses May Get Finnish MP Jail Time For Posting Scripture From The Book Of Romans

An MP in Finland is facing jail over a social media post that included a quotation from the Bible.
ADF International, a Christian legal group, said that Päivi Räsänen could receive a two-year prison sentence for the tweet, after the Finnish Prosecutor General announced April 29 that she would be subject to criminal charges.
The MP, a physician and mother of five, could also face additional jail time if convicted of two other alleged offenses relating to her comments in a 2004 pamphlet and on a 2018 television program, the group said.
The Prosecutor General charged Räsänen with incitement against a minority group, arguing that her statements were “likely to cause intolerance, contempt, and hatred towards homosexuals.”

Räsänen, who served as Finland’s interior minister from 2011 to 2015, said: “I cannot accept that voicing my religious beliefs could mean imprisonment. I do not consider myself guilty of threatening, slandering, or insulting anyone. My statements were all based on the Bible’s teachings on marriage and sexuality.”
Finland is a country of 5.5 million people bordering Norway, Russia, and Sweden. Around two-thirds of the population belong to the Evangelical Lutheran Church of Finland, one of the country’s two national churches, alongside the Orthodox Church of Finland.
The 61-year-old MP, who was chairwoman of the Christian Democrats party from 2004 to 2015, is an active member of the Finnish Lutheran Church. But she questioned her church’s sponsorship of an LGBT pride event in 2019.
On June 17, 2019, she asked in a Twitter post how the sponsorship was compatible with the Bible, linking to a photograph of a biblical passage, Romans 1:24-27, on Instagram. She also posted the text and image on Facebook.
“The purpose [of] my tweet was in no way to insult sexual minorities. My criticism was aimed at the leadership of the church,” she told the journal First Things last year.
Police began investigating Räsänen in 2019. She underwent several police interviews and had to wait more than a year for the Prosecutor General’s decision.

Paul Coleman, ADF International’s executive director, said: “Freedom of speech is one of the cornerstones of democracy. The Finnish Prosecutor General’s decision to bring these charges against Dr. Räsänen creates a culture of fear and censorship.”
“It is sobering that such cases are becoming all too common throughout Europe. If committed civil servants like Päivi Räsänen are criminally charged for voicing their deeply held beliefs, it creates a chilling effect for everyone’s right to speak freely.”
Räsänen commented: “I will defend my right to confess my faith, so that no one else would be deprived of their right to freedom of religion and speech. I hold on to the view that my expressions are legal and they should not be censored.”

“I will not back down from my views. I will not be intimidated into hiding my faith. The more Christians keep silent on controversial themes, the narrower the space for freedom of speech gets.

KJV
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.
17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
18 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28 And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

NIV
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: first to the Jew, then to the Gentile. 17 For in the gospel the righteousness of God is revealed—a righteousness that is by faith from first to last,[e] just as it is written: “The righteous will live by faith.”[f]
God’s Wrath Against Sinful Humanity
18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like a mortal human being and birds and animals and reptiles.
24 Therefore God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. 25 They exchanged the truth about God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
26 Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural sexual relations for unnatural ones. 27 In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed shameful acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their error.
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done. 29 They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, murder, strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, 30 slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; 31 they have no understanding, no fidelity, no love, no mercy. 32 Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also approve of those who practice them.
