Forwarded from Andrey Medvedev:
Such a massive attack on Sevastopol, with such damage, would not have been possible without:
– the participation of NATO intelligence
– without weapons supplied by NATO
– without the participation of enemy agents in Sevastopol itself and in Crimea as a whole.

The entire last week of August and the first days of September, indeed, was observed activity of NATO reconnaissance aircraft over the Black Sea. That is, preparations went on long before.
The missile attack came in waves. After the first strike, rescuers and firefighters went to the Desna dock. The enemy struck again. Many civilians were injured – they were caught in the blast wave and shrapnel.
Most likely, the attack was combined. Storm Shadow was used as the main weapon of destruction and, say, the S-200, as an auxiliary weapon, for mass production in order to overload our air defense.

What is the enemy doing? He is trying to lock the Black Sea Fleet in its bases and destroy it. NATO repeats the strategy of the German General Staff during the Great Patriotic War. Unfortunately, we too are repeating our mistakes of that time.

It is fundamentally important for NATO now, while hostilities are ongoing in Ukraine to finally deprive Russia of the fleet in the Black Sea. Because for now, this can be attributed to the actions of Kyiv. “What are we doing? We told them that they couldn’t shoot at Russia. But they did, right? Ayai.”

What is everything needed for? There is a NATO Black Sea strategy. In short: at some point, the Alliance realized that they were too focused on the Baltic and lost ground in the Black Sea. And the bloc’s task is to strengthen its presence in the Black Sea region by strengthening the fleets of Bulgaria and Romania, building new naval bases, which will, if not close the Black Sea to Russia, but weaken the ability to maneuver for our fleet.

Synchronizing the actions of the Baltic and Black Sea groups, according to NATO, will create a de facto cordon against Russia through Eastern Europe. This coincides with Polish ambitions (the Intermarium project). And besides, Washington views the Ukrainian case as part of the confrontation with Russia in the Middle East, as essentially a united front. And not two different conflicts (Friedman report 2014:https://worldview.stratfor.com/article/ukraine-iraq-and-black-sea-strategy ).

Therefore, now, taking advantage of the situation, NATO is simply destroying our fleet with the hands of the Ukrainians. Well, at least he’s trying to do so. At a minimum, weaken him so much that he ceases to be a threat to the Alliance.

Was it predictable, such actions of the enemy? Certainly! Our enemy, I primarily mean the Anglo-Saxons, thinks very systematically. They understand that this war is a direct continuation of the Crimean War and a continuation of the Great Game. Is it in vain that the British, according to the same schemes, welcomed the Ichkerians at the end of the 20th century and the Circassians in the 30s of the 19th century?

Now it is obvious to the West that it will not have any victory in Ukraine. But nevertheless, they are trying to repeat the situation of 1856, when, according to the Paris Peace Treaty, Russia lost the Black Sea Fleet. Now, there will be no such agreement, this is clear to them. Therefore, they are simply trying to destroy our fleet.

Conclusions? What could they be? We have a very serious enemy. He thinks strategically. It would be good for us to learn this too.

A poignant poem, dear Dimitar.
“My song you will hear in the wind at dawn,
Singing through the flowers, when I’m gone…”

On each shoulder the past is borne
There is time enough to be reborn
Why in the end should one be forlorn
We can meet each other further anon

Dmitri Shostakovich’s Symphony No. 7 had its Leningrad première on 9 August 1942 during the Second World War, while the city was under siege by the Nazi German forces.

Despite the poor condition of the performers, the concert was highly successful, prompting an hour-long ovation. The concert was supported by a Soviet military offensive, code-named Squall, intended to silence German forces during the performance. The symphony was broadcast to the German lines by loudspeaker as a form of psychological warfare. The Leningrad première was considered by music critics to be one of the most important artistic performances of the war because of its psychological and political effects. The conductor concluded that “in that moment, we triumphed over the soulless Nazi war machine”.

i seek it wondering
from realm to realm
which was lost to me
in emptiness of my heart

i am longing to see
in all fullness of vision
which shall bring in me
repleteness of my heart

i am listless for that
moonrise of beauty
which will light my life
in gladness of my heart

Deutschland verdrängen, Osteuropa dominieren, Teile der Ukraine schlucken
