War is imminent?: President of Ukraine announces "The liberation of Donbass is imminent."

Poroshenko Announces Troop Deployments To Azov Sea To Face Off Against Russia

KIEV, Ukraine – Kiev is moving parachute units to the sea coast of Azov and the Black Sea, stated Ukrainian President Pyotr Poroshenko during his visit to the part of the Donetsk region controlled by Ukrainian authorities.

According to the Ukrainian president, among others who will be dispatched by air include detachments of the 95th brigade, which will also strengthen the defense of the coast, a Ukrainian TV channel said.

Poroshenko added that after the imposition of martial law, the short-term training of the brigades that defended the most dangerous flank was carried out.

The Ukrainian leader pointed out that the army was put in combat readiness. In addition, the Border Service, the National Guard and the Ukrainian Security Service (SBU) were activated, adding that the protection of the national border was strengthened.

Russian Deputy Aleksandr Sherin believes that Poroshenko’s statement is one more way of raising his popularity and a pretext for prolonging martial law. According to him, the decision is not appropriate from the military point of view, nor from the point of view of military tactical or strategic actions.

“What he announces resembles a computer game of a person who has never served in the army,” said the Russian politician.

Black Sea Provocations

The situation in the region worsened after three Ukrainian navy ships crossed the Russian maritime border, thus violating maritime law. On November 25, the vessels entered temporarily closed waters and carried out dangerous maneuvers, ignoring the demands of the Russian Coast Guard.

The Russian Coast Guard was forced to use guns. Then the three Ukrainian ships were seized and the crews were detained. The Russian side has opened a criminal case for breach of the border.

After the incident, the Ukrainian parliament approved the imposition of martial law in 10 regions of Ukraine for 30 days.

According to the Russian leader, the hostile Ukrainian action in the Black Sea is associated with the low popularity of the president of Ukraine, Pyotr Poroshenko, on the eve of the elections.

Very Serious Developments in Ukraine; New Military Gear arrives - Russian Troops, armor and Ships now on the move

This morning, the President of Ukraine gleefully announced "The liberation of Donbass is imminent."  He was referring to the Ukrainian government in Kiev preparing to launch an all-out military offensive to regain control over the breakaway province which now calls itself the "Donestsk People's Republic (DPR)."

The DPR broke away from Kiev after the US and Europe fomented the violent overthrow of Ukraine's President, Victor Yanukovich, and installed a puppet government beholden to Europe.  Almost 100% of the population in Donetsk and Luhansk are Russian speaking with families tracing their heritage to Russia for generations. 

Russia has made clear that if Kiev launches an attack upon Donetsk, or it's neighbor to the north, Luhansk, Russia will intervene.   It now appears Kiev is going to do exactly that.

"The territories of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions that are not under the Ukrainian’ control will soon be returned to Ukrainian jurisdiction" stated Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko during a meeting with students.

“I thank those who have come and who continue to be engaged in science and education even when their homes are occupied by the aggressor country. Yes, they are now doing this in Vinnytsia, Lviv and Kharkiv where we moved the educational institutions. They are the anchor that holds the Ukrainian Donbas and ensures the return of Ukraine and Ukraine’s sovereignty after liberation, which will happen very soon,” he said.

Poroshenko spoke about agreements with EU countries to help the restoration and development of infrastructure of the Donbas. Such programs, the President believes, are a symbol of unity between Ukrainians and other Europeans.

The unity about which Porochenko speaks is an illusion.  The citizenry of Donetsk and Luhansk want nothing to do with Kiev.  In fact, they are actively engaged in militia-style combat against the forces controlled by Kiev.  It is clear from all reasonable observation that Donetsk and Luhansk are getting military assistance from Russia.

But without the population of those areas favoring Russia, the military assistance would be useless.  So the Unity about which Porochenko speaks is apparently a creation of his own imagination - or mere propaganda.

SERIOUS DEVELOPMENTS

 

There are now very serious developments militarily in the area, and ALL of these developments point to the outbreak of actual war, very soon.  Some say December 24/25

Earlier this week, the British warship "HMS Echo" arrived at the Ukrainian port of Odessa.

This is a hydrographic vessel whose primary function is undersea surveys to find Mines and ultra-quiet, Diesel-powered submarines, of the exact type Russia is presently deploying into the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov.

In addition to this British Vessel, the US previously notified Turkey of its intent to send "a warship" thru the Bosporous and into the Black Sea within a week.  That was over a week ago.

Turkey is also sending vessels into the Black Sea.

RUSSIA PREPARING – BIG

Russia says after the November Kerch Strait incident, the Southern Military District has developed a “crisis response plan” for the Black Sea Fleet & that units of the 4th Army, Air Force & Air Defense Forces will be involved in any future incident.

Russia has moved missile frigates into the Sea of Azov to await the troubles they know are coming:

Russian submarines have been ordered to undertake Drills off Crimea, in precisely the area of the Kerch Strait where all the troubles are set to begin:

Local media and eyewitness report columns of Russian military equipment seen moving north in Crimea and deploying towards the border with the Kherson region of Ukraine:

UKRAINE GETS MORE WEAPONS

"Ukrainian forces continue to prepare for an offensive reinforcing troops with artillery on the northern stretch of the contact line in Donbass"- Donetsk People’s Republic People’s Militia spokesman Daniil Bezsonov said on Thursday

DPR intelligence assessed it as 20,000-strong force with hundreds of tanks, multiple launch rocket systems and artillery pieces.

BRITISH SAS CAUSING TROUBLE

 

British special forces begin operation by Gorlovka to capture DPR officers – Bezsonov

Britain’s Special Air Service plans to capture Donetsk People’s Republic People’s Militia commanders and fighters.

SAS servicemen have arrived to carry out a special operation in the Republic’s territory to abduct People’s Militia Command representatives and militiamen.”

New Military Gear

 

Ukraine President Porochencko inspects new and refurbished military gear "provided to" Ukraine.  They did not say by whom:

COVERT INTELLIGENCE

The following information has come to me from my former colleagues in the Intelligence Community with whom I worked in my years with the FBI Joint Terrorism Task Force.  This is information that is circulating within the halls of government power and was not intended for public distribution. 

These are the actual vessels that will be used to start the coming war by trying to unlawfully transit the Kerch Strait within days . . .

 

Intel suggests these vessels will NOT seek prior permits to transit the strait, and will NOT notify Russia of their transit.  This will undoubtedly trigger the same Russian naval interception as took place weeks ago.

Only this time, when the Russians Order the Ukrainian to stop, and fire the traditional warning shots across the bow, Ukraine is said to be planning to totally "open-up" on the Russians with the intent of SINKING the Russian ships.

Russia has already publicly made clear they have a "Rapid Response Plan" in-place via their Southern Military District, which would likely mean the Ukrainians will be immediately smashed to death by a full Russian response.

That, my friends, is the start of this war. 

Intel believes it begins on December 24 or 25.

In Russian Orthodox Religion, Christmas is not December 25 but rather on January 6 / 7.   Much of the communications intercepts dealing with the planning mention "Christmas" but it is not yet known if they mean Dec, 25 or January 6/7.

Either way, this is about as bad as it gets, and the folks on both sides are absolutely not backing down.  

Ukraine's 93rd Brigade’s 2nd self-propelled howitzer battalion armed with 12 howitzer 2C3 Akatsiya, 152mm, are now concentrated in the northern outskirts of Ocheretino, 16 kilometers from the contact line of Donetsk.

Simultaneously, 93rd Brigade’s 1st motorized battalion concentrated one kilometer west of Novoselovka Vtoraya, four kilometers from the contact line. 93rd Brigade’s 2nd mechanized battalion reinforced 1st and 2nd Battalions of 92nd Brigade in the Avdeyevka area.

93rd Brigade’s 3rd Battalion is deployed in the Verkhnetoretskoye area, four kilometers from the contact line.

It is likely now that the ships above will be used to provoke an incident, and when THAT takes place and fighting breaks out, Ukraine will unleash a major offensive into Donetsk and Luhansk, perhaps believing Russia would be somehow overwhelmed.  That belief is erroneous.

Russia is a super-power which literally borders Ukraine.  The Ukrainians are heading into suicide.

It is clear that Ukraine is being goaded-into this war by elements of NATO.  Which means it is NATO that actually WANTS this war.

I have repeatedly told you to have emergency supplies of food, water, fuel, electricity generation, heat and medicines.  If this war breaks out in Europe, we can, and likely WILL get hit HERE, in the continental US.  How badly, I don't know.  But you have precious little time to prepare.

In the event donations do not come in and this web site has to go dark in January (just as war breaks out) I wish all of you the best.  God will-it, folks will help with a special Christmas Donation and this bastion of cutting-edge news can continue.
