Wheat shortage? Then ask why…

Surprise-surprise!

It turns out that Russia is the world’s largest exporter of wheat in the world and the Ukrainian conflict has nothing to do with the food crisis, but it was caused – another surprise – by anti-Russian sanctions. Sanctions imposed illegally by the West. Sanctions that exaggerated the conditions in place already by the West…

Russian Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu (May 24, 2022)

Shoigu said that the West urgently organized the supply of lethal weapons, fearing the defeat of Ukrainian troops

‘A large-scale campaign has been launched to misinform the world community about the true causes of the crisis.

Military advisers and employees of private military companies are sent to the country, and the number of foreign mercenaries has exceeded six thousand people.

To hold on to power, the Kiev regime uses terrorist methods against its own people.

The nationalists carry out demonstrative executions of those who refused to participate in hostilities, block the exit of civilians from the cities, using them as human shields, and disperse tanks and artillery in residential areas.

The release of criminals and the uncontrolled distribution of weapons led to massive cases of violence, robbery and looting.

Numerous facts of torture and brutal murders of Russian prisoners of war are known. And it’s not hidden.

However, the West refuses to acknowledge these facts’

Former US ambassador to Russia claims Washington ‘was lying to Ukraine about NATO bid’

McFaul’s remarks came as NATO’s Stoltenberg claimed that Alliance was “confident that we will come to a quick decision” to welcome Finland, Sweden.

Former US Ambassador to Russia, Michael Anthony McFaul on Friday, May 20 said that Washington has been “lying to Ukraine” about its NATO bid since 2021. At the semi-annual Munk Debates, Harvard international affairs professor Stephen Walt was highlighting that throughout 2021, the US was cheerleading for Ukraine to join NATO despite Russia’s concerns about the defensive Alliance’s eastward expansion. Walt underscored Moscow’s Russia’s longstanding opposition to NATO expansion which he stressed poses a threat to Russia’s regional security. 

“In 2021 we kept reiterating that Ukraine was going to join [NATO]. We kept saying that, over and over again,” Walt noted. To this, US ambassador McFaul replied, “Did you believe that?” He then asserted “our [US] diplomats were lying when offering Ukraine NATO membership to Ukraine,” adding “Yes! Yes! That’s the real word!” 

The ambassador that served in office from 2012 to 2014 claimed that diplomats in Washington have been “lying all the time” about NATO membership of Ukraine, dismissing the threat to Russian security, and sarcastically adding “yet the Russians should trust them.” Walt then questioned the US ambassador’s controversial remark, asking whether it was “a common practice” for diplomats like McFaul in Washington to lie or make casual statements. “So our diplomats are lying?” Walt asked McFaul.  “That’s the real world,” the latter reiterated.

Statement of the Joint Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response in Ukraine (May 23, 2022)

The Russian Federation’s Joint Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response, in co-operation with the authorised federal executive authorities, continues to carefully record the continuing egregious facts of the inhumane treatment of civilians by Kiev authorities. Nationalist battalion fighters and AFU units, using civilians as human shields, continue to use civilian infrastructure to equip strongholds and deploy heavy weaponry:

in Odessa, firing positions have been equipped in the buildings of schools No. 14 and No. 71, and armoured vehicles, artillery and MLRS have been placed in the surrounding area;

in Kostantinovka, Donetsk People’s Republic, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have equipped strongholds, deployed artillery and MLRS weapons in School No. 1 and the administrative building and dormitory of Vocational School No. 39 and are holding residents of nearby houses in the premises of educational institutions under the pretext of ensuring security;

in Gorskoe, Lugansk People’s Republic Ukrainian nationalists have equipped firing positions and ammunition depots on the lower and upper floors of apartment buildings on Gagarin Street. Local residents are forbidden to leave their flats, and all attempts by citizens to evacuate to safe areas are severely curtailed.

In addition, in Lisichansk, Lugansk People’s Republic, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have placed artillery and MLRS in the building and hangars of the rare gases plant, mined tanks with hazardous chemicals, and forcibly detained employees and local residents in the underground facilities. At the same time, the nationalists are systematically shelling positions of the Russian Armed Forces and Lugansk People’s Republic formations with MLRS, thus provoking them to retaliate in order to further accuse them of killing civilians and creating a man-made disaster in the city.

In Putivl, Sumy Region, Ukrainian neo-Nazis have mined bridges across the Seim and Lyubka rivers, which they plan to blow up and accuse the Russian Armed Forces of allegedly indiscriminate strikes on vital civilian infrastructure in a well-known scenario.

These facts once again demonstrate the Ukrainian authorities’ complete disregard for the norms of morality and the provisions of international humanitarian law. All this is happening with the tacit consent of the “Russophobe-influenced” countries of the so-called collective West, which continue to turn a blind eye to the numerous war crimes of the Kiev regime.

We emphasize once again that in carrying out the tasks of the special military operation, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation treat the local population extremely humanely and do not strike at civilian infrastructure facilities, unlike the Ukrainian armed formations.

Despite all the difficulties and obstacles imposed by the Ukrainian side, over the past day, without the participation of Kiev, 13,428 people were evacuated from dangerous areas, 930 of them children, and in total, since the beginning of the special military operation, 1,426,979 people have already been evacuated, of which 238,329 are children. The state border of the Russian Federation was crossed by 195,700 personal vehicles including 697 per day.

We continue to maintain a sufficient number of comfortable buses at checkpoints to transport people to their chosen places of residence or temporary accommodation, where hot meals are provided and qualified medical and psychological assistance is provided in a timely manner.

More than 9,500 temporary accommodation centres continue to operate in the regions of the Russian Federation. The refugees are dealt with on an individual basis and are promptly assisted with various pressing issues relating to onward accommodation, employment assistance, places for children in kindergartens and educational institutions, and the provision of entitlements to social benefits.

Over the past 24 hours, the hotline of the Interdepartmental Coordination Headquarters of the Russian Federation for Humanitarian Response, federal executive authorities, constituent entities of the Russian Federation and various NGOs received 102 requests from foreign and Ukrainian citizens to evacuate to Russia, the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics, as well as to the Russian Armed Forces-controlled areas of Zaporozhye, Nikolaev, Kharkov and Kherson regions. In total there are 2,756,228 such appeals from 2,136 locations in Ukraine in the database.

In addition, 75 foreign vessels from 17 countries remain blocked in 7 Ukrainian ports (Kherson, Nikolaev, Chernomorsk, Ochakov, Odessa, Yuzhniy and Mariupol). The threat of shelling and high mine danger created by official Kiev in its internal waters and territorial sea prevents vessels from safely leaving the ports and reaching the open sea.

In confirmation of this, the Russian Federation is opening daily from 08:00 to 19:00 (Moscow time) a humanitarian corridor, which is a safe lane south-west of Ukraine’s territorial sea, 80 nautical miles long and 3 nautical miles wide.

Detailed information in English and Russian on the modus operandi of the maritime humanitarian corridor is broadcast daily every 15 minutes on VHF radio on 14 and 16 international channels in English and Russian.

At the same time, the Kiev authorities continue to avoid engaging with representatives of states and ship-owning companies to resolve the issue of ensuring the safe passage of foreign vessels to the assembly area.

The danger to navigation from Ukrainian mines drifting off their anchors along the coasts of Black Sea states remains.

The Russian Federation is taking a full range of comprehensive measures to ensure the safety of civilian navigation in the waters of the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.

Demining detachments of the Russian Armed Forces and the EMERCOM of Russia are carrying out land and facility clearance tasks in the territory of the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics. A total of 1,623.21 hectares were checked (including 0.03 hectares during the day), 35 buildings (including 13 socially important facilities), 1 bridge and 9.64 km of roads. 9,364 explosives were detected and defused, 12 of them during the day.

Federal executive authorities, together with the subjects of the Russian Federation, various public organizations, patriotic movements, continue to accumulate humanitarian aid. More than 26,5 tonnes of basic necessities and food kits, including baby food and life-saving medicines, have been prepared at collection points.

The greatest contributors to the relief effort were:

Ministry of the Russian Federation for Civil Defence, Emergencies and Elimination of Consequences of Natural Disasters, Ministry of Industry and Trade, Ministry of Transport, Ministry of Economic Development, Ministry of Digital Development, Communications and Mass Media, Federal Service for State Registration, Cadastre and Cartography, Federal Agency for Maritime and River Transport, Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation, the Federal Agency for Nationalities, the Federal Agency for the Commonwealth of Independent States, Compatriots Living Abroad and International Humanitarian Cooperation;

republics of Buryatia, Dagestan, Crimea, Tatarstan, Chechen Republic, Altai, Trans-Baikal, Krasnodar and Primorsky Krais, Arkhangelsk, Belgorod, Bryansk, Kursk, Leningrad, Moscow, Novgorod, Novosibirsk, Rostov, Tula and Ulyanovsk regions, as well as Moscow city;

Among political parties and non-profit organisations: United Russia, the People’s Front All-Russian Public Movement, the All-Russian Public Organisation of Veterans Boyevoe Bratstvo, the Russian Humanitarian Mission autonomous non-profit organisation for the support of humanitarian programmes, and the All-Russian Public and Governmental Organisation Union of Women of Russia.

Since March 2, 21,920.4 tons of humanitarian cargo have already been delivered to Ukraine, 1,045 humanitarian actions have been carried out, including 1 action in Kherson Region, during which 50 tons of basic necessities, medicines and food were transferred to the civilian population of the liberated areas.

On May 23, 3 humanitarian actions have been planned and are currently being carried out in Kharkov and Kherson regions, during which 510.4 tons of basic necessities, medicine and food will be distributed.

It is the simplest things in life…

I can’t speak for a woman, but for a man the simplest things in life is the core, the base and the reason that makes life worth living…

The issues come when we step away from the basics and try to embrace the areas that we men are not inclined to dwell at. Men are men and to be something else, well that is when we are no longer men. Men are designed one way and designed by God to be that way…

You could say that in the beginning when God made Adam, life was very simple indeed. Heck, Adams big job was to name the animals that God made and to rule over these animals. But, Adam did not find among all these wondrous animals on the plant Earth any one of them that was a match for him personally…

Genesis 2:
20 So the man gave names to all the livestock, the birds in the sky and all the wild animals. But for Adam no suitable helper was found.
21 So the LORD God caused the man to fall into a deep sleep; and while he was sleeping, he took one of the man’s ribs and then closed up the place with flesh.
22 Then the LORD God made a woman from the rib he had taken out of the man, and he brought her to the man.
23 The man said, “This is now bone of my bones and flesh of my flesh; she shall be called ‘woman,’ for she was taken out of man.”
24 That is why a man leaves his father and mother and is united to his wife, and they become one flesh.

Poor Adam…

I read this and realized that Adam was just replaced with a superior human. God thought he was done and saw that Adam, while happy to be a man and name everything as if he was the boss and he was given that job to find a mate it seems….did not find among all the creations by God anything that excited him…

So God went back to the drawing board and took Adams DNA and created a better version of Adam and made her sexy, at least to Adam and thus we have a paradox…

Man finds woman and he is smitten and he leaves family and makes his own and it is all to Gods plan. The woman is the one with the power over life and happiness. Thus, that is why I say Man can only reach heaven through Woman…

It is obvious that God made woman from man, but that is where it ends, He also tweaked the code and made a better copy of man and instead of making two copies, one female and one male of the new code. He simply left the old out of date copy and decided that the new copy of human would do the job?

Heck, what if Adam had fallen in love with a horse? No Eve would have been made!

This all happened within the Garden of Eden and it seems that maybe a bit of visual from the monkeys running around outside the Garden of Eden may have had a huge influence upon the visual look of man as we know us now…

It was obvious that when Cain was kicked out and into the outer areas to be punished, that there was humans and or man as we know him and he did just fine spreading his genetics with the local hairless monkeys…

Genesis 4:15–16:
15 Then the Lord said to him, “Not so! If anyone kills Cain, vengeance shall be taken on him sevenfold.” And the Lord put a mark on Cain, lest any who found him should attack him. 16 Then Cain went away from the presence of the Lord and settled in the land of Nod,6 east of Eden.

What a Soap Opera!

The original Soap called as, “The Garden of Eden Turns!”

No I am not nuts…

Adam is a simpleton and wants to live simple and not do anything but protect family, make babies and war when necessary to keep life simple and oh yes, name animals. But God tossed a monkey wench into it all and made woman, a woman named Eve to be exact.It was not until Eve came along that there was any issues and read the bible and you will see. You really think without Eve that Adam would have eaten the fruit of the tree of knowledge? Adam was happy and naming animals and plants and bugs and well running around naked and just happy…

It is all rather confusing at times, but it is what we have and we have a simple guy naming animals and he is then faced with a paradox of a creature, made after him and made from him. She was called Woman and ever since Men cannot not live with them, nor live without them. The one creation of God that man did not name…

Adams life was no longer boring that is for sure!

Now why am I saying all this?

There is a basic rule to life, basic order to life, basic reason for life and changing that basic root of life does not lead us to the end of where we are to go and obtain. When we break the order, we are sidestepping our reason for being. We are skirting around why we are here on Earth. Why God made Adam and then made Eve?, is the question and we have to answer that question…

Adam is first, the simplest of the two God made, both mentally and physically. No not weaker, just vastly different and women are without a doubt more complicated in all aspects. Adam is a lessor but much more robust and able to survive under more conditions than Eve. But Eve has different goals and reasons for being. One Adam can impregnate a hundred Eve’s, but Eve can only get impregnated by one Adam at a time and not able for long periods of time during the pregnancy process. It is simplified in its presentation, yet Eve is more valuable than Adam, at least he is less valuable after the population builds to a certain threshold. Therefore, men come and go, but women have to be sacred and protected. This falls upon many in the past as brothers had to take into his family the wife and kids of the brother that died. It is all protection and continuation of the species…

When we make Eve less valuable, as in trying to make her equal to Adam? That is like saying we have to lower the status of Eve to the simplest level. A level that makes Eve non protected and expendable…

We are doing that now in the world. Eve has to be supported by Adam in all she does, but Eve has to keep on track and understand her role in our existence. There lies the quandary…


Now I will end Part 1 and since I have become long winded? I will do a Part 2. My blood sugar is at 3.2 mmol/L and it is hard to concentrate right now. Besides I have laundry, dishes and grass to mow and that means I have to eat…

So the USA is trying to start a War with China…

🇺🇸🇨🇳 Biden, during his visit to Japan, said that the United States could take a “military role” in repelling a Chinese invasion of Taiwan.

🇨🇳🇺🇸❗The Chinese Foreign Ministry urged the US to be careful in words on the Taiwan issue after Biden’s words about the US readiness to “defend Taiwan”

At the same time, interestingly, the journalists clarified with Biden that the United States does not take a direct part in the war in Ukraine. Will the US go to war in Taiwan?

To which the President of the United States replied:

The situation with Taiwan is similar to the situation with Ukraine, only the burden of Taiwan is much stronger.


So according to what I see, the USA wants war anywhere it can get it.

Psycho country is USA…
