Aggressive War Chronology Foreword to the citizens of Russia Your leader Putin and his oligarchs are waging a war of aggression in complete disregard for interna- tional law against the autonomous and democratic country of Ukraine. The Russian military is ruth- lessly bombing villages and towns there at the moment. Russian tanks and soldiers are advancing into Ukraine in a broad front from Belarus to the north, from Russia to the east and from the Black Sea to the south. Many civilians are fleeing or are seeking shelter in the subways and in bunkers. Putin has systematically suppressed free media in your country in recent years and brought radio and television stations into line with him. There is no longer any independent media that can tell you the truth about the war in Ukraine. There is also no longer any opposition that could oppose Putin. Putin is lying to you when he claims that there have been massacres of citizens in Ukraine and that he must therefore invade to protect them. Putin lies when he speaks of a "Nazi" regime in Ukraine. Putin is lying when he says he represents your interests in Ukraine. Putin is lying when he claims that NATO threatens your country. The fact is: Putin is using brutal force to attack your brothers in Ukraine. He wants to install a puppet government loyal to him there, as he has done in many other former states of the former Soviet Union. The fact is: Putin is terrified that a democratic movement in neighboring countries will serve as a model for you and dethrone him and his oligarchs. Putin is afraid of you! The fact is: Putin and the Mafiosi who belong to him are bleeding your country dry. They are si- phoning off billions of funds for themselves while your economy collapses more and more. Putin is corrupt through and through. His fortune is estimated at over 36 billion euros (01/2021). The fact is: Unfortunately, there will also be many dead soldiers on your side whom Putin sent to their deaths to stay in power. The fact is: Putin now has few allies in the world. He is now allied with China, which is even more totalitarian and brutal than his regime. Unfortunately, this dependency will cost you much more than you can imagine. The fact is: There will now be sanctions against Russia worldwide. Unfortunately, many sanctions will hit you and not the warmongers in the Kremlin. They have secured their billions long ago. You don't have to believe me. I'm just one voice among many. But try to inform yourselves via the internet, via social media or via other means. You will see what the world thinks of Putin and what he is really doing in Ukraine. Your army is also spreading fear and terror in other countries. Putin supports Assat's butchery regime in Syria and drops barrel bombs on innocent civilians there. He also likes to you about the missions there. Putin can only be overthrown from within and through you. This is a hard and dangerous path. Putin is already taking ruthless action against demonstrators protesting Ukraine's war of aggression. And in the worst case, he won't shy away from shooting you either. You are a great people in a great country, take it back! The world will welcome you with open arms. 1 / 44

01/26/2022 So the little Russian dictator is afraid. Fear that he is surrounded by the EU and NATO countries and that they want him bad. So "encircled", surrounded by the evil and aggressive West. The fact is: Russia has an external border of approx. 58,000 km. If one is benevolent now and only considers the land borders, there are still about 20,400 km left. Approximately 2,600 km of this is in western EU states or NATO member states (Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Lithuania, Norway, and Poland). That's just 11.7%. And since he speaks in all seriousness of "encircled"? NATO is a package of alliances. An alliance case occurs when a member is attacked. This then counts as an attack on all member states of NATO and will be answered accordingly. If a member of NATO starts a war with another state, however, the alliance case does NOT occur (see Turkey and Iraq/Syria, USA and Iraq). This should make it clear how afraid the little dictator is and why he is demanding that Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland leave NATO again (back to 1997 status) and that Ukraine not be admitted. For example, if Poland is no longer a member of NATO, he can safely attack that country without declar- ing the alliance case. That clearly shows what his motives are. In this respect, it should be clear to everyone (and also to the Putin admirers from the SPD, Linke and AFD parties) that one must not give in to Russia! Not even a millimeter! Because, if you do that, a war in Europe through attacks on Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and Poland is not only likely but absolutely certain. Unfortunately, a (hopefully) intransigent stance on Russia will mean that Putin is likely to attack Ukraine. My guess is that this will happen after the Olympics end at the end of February. I don't know whether he will advance to Kiev and install a puppet government there, or content himself with access to Crimea for the time being. That depends on Ukraine's defense readiness. Therefore, it is imperative that the Western world now militarily equip Ukraine to the point where it can withstand an attack over a sustained period of time. That, along with extreme sanctions against Rus- sia, is the only thing that can keep Putin from attacking. And I am ashamed that Germany does not see itself in a position to do this. Precisely because of our history, we have an obligation to help Ukraine. At least, with weapons for air defense. But we only deliver 5,000 helmets - for me an absolute indictment! We've had a lot of bizarre politicians in Germany, but former chancellor Schröder is truly incredible. He appears to be acting as a puppet for Putin (the "flawless" Democrat) and says in all seriousness that Ukraine should stop "saber-rattling". And the NATO exercises in the Baltic States with up to 5,000 men would be the reason that there are now more than 120,000 heavily armed Russian soldiers on the border with Ukraine. Dear Gerhard, didn't you pay attention in school in arithmetic and regional studies? 120,000 is a little more than 5,000 (namely 24 times as much) and the 120,000 soldiers are on the border with Ukraine and NOT on the border with the Baltic States! And a little tutoring in histo- ry: Putin HAS already illegally attacked Ukraine and is occupying parts of it in violation of international law. With now more than 10,000 dead! So, Mister Schröder, your statements are pathetic and you should be ashamed of yourself! Stop playing propaganda minister for Putin! Incidentally, I also assume that Xi Jingping in the Far East will watch very closely how the West will behave towards Russia. If Ukraine is attacked without serious consequences, I assume that China will also invade Taiwan. 3 / 44
02/19/2022 What a pathetic and transparent game the little dictator Putin is playing. Now it's the alleged geno- cides of the Ukrainians in the Donbass that are supposed to give him an argument for the invasion. For the dictator, of course, these are not Ukrainians in the Donbass, but only Russians. And of course, he has to defend it. The fact that a large part of the population in Donbass was forced to ac- cept Russian passports does not play a role in this bad staging. Of course, the well-armed, pro- Russian rebels in Donbass were and are unable to prevent the alleged genocide in their controlled territory. It is of course practical that since Russia conquered Crimea and the Donbass in violation of international law in 2014. Neutral observers have been denied access to this region. So there are no independent witnesses for such alleged acts. According to the rebels, the Ukrainian army is threatening "their" country, even though more than 140,000 heavily armed Russian soldiers are now waiting to be deployed directly across the border. The government in Kyiv will certainly not be so naive as to launch attacks on Donbass in this situa- tion! But perhaps there are still terrorist attacks orchestrated by Putin, which is why he has to "rush to the aid" of the Ukrainians. Unfortunately, he has done this repeatedly throughout history, killing many people in the process. And the crimes Putin and his mercenaries are capable of in Donbass were demonstrated by shooting down the Malaysia Airlines MH17, which killed almost 300 people. If there's one thing Putin is good at, it's spreading lies. That was also his job as a KGB agent. Who doesn't remember 2014, when Putin allowed Russian soldiers to enter Crimea without insignia to ob- struct a referendum on Crimea's status there and attack Ukrainian forces? Putin has long denied that these people, referred to as "green men", are Russian soldiers. After more and more evidence spoke against it, it was suddenly Russian soldiers on vacation. Only in March 2015 did Russia admit that the "green men" were members of a special unit of the Russian military intelligence service GRU. All of this should be kept in mind when Putin spreads lies about alleged atrocities in Donbass. And many politicians in Germany still refuse to send weapons to Ukraine for self-defense. We even refuse the Ukrainians the indirect delivery of obsolete GDR howitzers from Estonia. This is absolutely pathetic! We are not promoting peace with this; we are encouraging Putin to go to war. To justify this refusal with our history is naive and wrong. In my opinion, it is precisely we who have an obligation to stand by countries against oppression and aggression from outside. We rightly also de- liver arms to Israel, so why not to Ukraine as well? We don't have to deliver tanks or ships. But anti- aircraft and anti-tank weapons would also be an important asset that could help Ukraine defends its homeland. Unfortunately, I expect Russia to attack Ukraine shortly. Putin will then rid Ukraine of pro-Western politicians, journalists and citizens as quickly as possible and install a puppet government under his control. He has done so in the past in the Caucasus and Georgia. And in Syria you could see just how little squeamish Putin treats the population of another country. In addition to the Ukrainian population, I also feel sorry for the ordinary Russian soldiers who, in the event of an attack, will have to risk their health and their lives for Putin's lies. Unfortunately, there is a great danger that after conquering Ukraine, Putin will also attack Lithuania in order to create a corridor to Russian sovereignty in Kaliningrad. And Estonia and Latvia also offer a great pretext to protect the Russian minorities there from an alleged "genocide". In Estonia this is about 28% and in Latvia about 35%. Putin wants to go back to the borders of the former Soviet Union. We should never forget that, be- cause part of Germany was also a satellite state of the Soviet Union! 4 / 44
02/22/2022 So now the Russians have invaded the Donbass on a "peace mission". And everyone is shocked and wonders what is going on in the head of this little dictator. Again and again, one hears "What does Putin want?". Anyone who can reasonably listen to what dictators are saying should have known for years what Putin is really planning and what steps he is going to take. All of this is not at all surprising to me. Unfortunately, it's not surprising to me either that the West falls for these state terrorists. We still rely on diplomacy. Diplomacy is the magic word of all "enlightened" nations. But you can rely on diplomacy if there are parties on both sides who share the same basic values. Then you have the opportunity for dialogue and can also find a way to a common agreement. But you can't do diplomacy with terrorists! That doesn't work and you just make a fool of yourself. It is not for nothing that in many countries there is the basic rule "Do not negotiate with terrorists!". Since 2014 at the latest, Putin has made the step from president to state terrorist. Human lives don't count for him, and neither do the lives of Russian citizens. Putin is trapped in his own narcissistic world. All he cares about is maintaining his own power and increasing his own wealth. He is the top Mafiosi in Russia and corrupts through and through. The henchmen who support him are fed with a little power and wealth (see also our "Herr" Schröder). All others are suppressed. And opponents are imprisoned or even eliminated. He probably has nothing but contempt for the ordinary citizens of his country. Otherwise, he would do something about poverty in his own country. So many Russian citi- zens languish on the brink of poverty, yet he and his cronies are pocketing billions. The only thing this little dictator can do is play games with his countrymen and the world. What he can't do at all, by the way, is acting. What he has offered as a "play" in the last few days would not even be worth a "golden raspberry" in the film business. That was just ridiculous and bungling staged! The performance of his rebel henchmen from Donbass, who suddenly asked his big brother for "help" in a suit, was also laughable. But unfortunately, this demagogic game makes you laugh in your throat. I don't know why he's staging this. Is the Russian population so naive and believe this set-up? And why is someone like that with his complexes and fears (see also his obvious fear of a Covid disease) seen as a strong leader in Russia at all? Anyone with a little common sense knew exactly what steps Putin was going to take and also knows what steps he is about to take. Of course, Russia will now station its troops in the Donbass and of course there will be firefights (fictitious by Russia) between the Ukrainians and the poor rebels in the Donbass and possibly also against Russian troops. Then, of course, Russia as a "peace power" must take action against these aggressions. I think that many Russian Special Forces disguised as Ukrain- ian civilians have already positioned themselves at strategic points in Ukraine. On day X, important communication facilities are then sabotaged by hacker attacks, the "civilians" attack radio and televi- sion stations, for example, and "arrest" influential politicians. Paratroopers will capture Kyiv airport and other important points. Then pro-Russian henchmen will be anchored and sworn in very quickly and - of course, prepared in advance - in the Ukrainian government. They then claim that the old gov- ernment was consistently corrupt henchmen of the Americans and fictitious "evidence" is presented to the world public. Then the "new" government will ask the Ukrainian soldiers to go back to the bar- racks. Any resistance will be prevented by the special units on site and, if necessary, by invading Russian troops. Then the henchmen of the new government will ask Russia to continue acting as a protective power - sorry, "peace power" - for Ukraine. Then the majority of the 140,000 soldiers and their equipment will not be transferred back to their home bases, but will remain stationed in barracks and airfields in Ukraine as a protective force. Of course, this will be near the borders with Poland, Slo- vakia, Romania and Hungary. And many Russian soldiers in Belarus are also stationed near the bor- ders with Poland, Lithuania and Latvia. Then not much will happen for a while. Until the West gets sleepy again and is busy with other issues. Just as the West has "forgotten" and suppressed the illegal invasion and annexation of Crimea and the occupation of Donbass. Then he will invent incidents involving the Russian-speaking population in Estonia, Latvia or Lithuania using the same tasteless script as now, and then present himself there again as the protecting power of the Russian-speaking population. Maybe he's babbling again about "genocide" or something simi- lar. Incidentally, it is interesting that by "genocide" he does not mean the murder and annihilation of 5 / 44
population groups. For him, "genocide" is when "his" population groups are (allegedly) disadvantaged compared to other groups in the country. This can be impairment in the language and also in the practice of the culture. And already we have "Ukraine 2.0", but this time with a country that is in NATO. It remains to be seen whether German, French or other NATO countries will actually be willing to go to war for one of these small countries. In addition to Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania, the little dictator is of the opinion that at least half of Po- land also "belongs to Russia". Interesting, I'm not 100% solid in history. But as far as I know, Russia only once claimed half of Poland for itself, which was in the "Treaty of Friendship and Borders" be- tween Hitler and Stalin in 1939. That should give us all food for thought! In my opinion, only the following steps can save us from the worst: Immediate implementation of all possible sanctions against Russia. Money transactions, trade and data exchange with Russia are no longer allowed. In this regard, Russia must be completely isolated from the western world. Microsoft and other software companies no longer provide updates etc. for Russian PCs. Mi- crosoft is best off disabling the use of its operating system for PCs in Russia. Russia must no longer have access to western data resources such as Facebook, Google, etc. Immediate closure of all Russian consulates in Europe with simultaneous withdrawal of all Euro- pean diplomats from Russia. If Russia wants serious talks, there are plenty of communication al- ternatives. I know that some of these points are not easy to implement and will also affect us economically. But Russia has a GDP roughly comparable to that of Spain. If we as the western world cannot cushion this, what would it look like if China were to attack independent and free republic Taiwan? All of the above points would initially drive Putin into dependence on China. Putin is mistaken in think- ing that Russia and China have equal rights and are on an equal footing. What a mistake! In reality, unfortunately, Russia is the tail and China is the dog. The dog is wagging its tail and if Putin is still sane, he will sooner or later realize this. But I'm afraid that we in the West have become so effeminate and anxious that we don't have the courage to take such steps. And it is precisely this fear that dictators and state terrorists around the world exploit. But we are good at dancing names and speak in gender correctly ;-) 6 / 44
02/24/2022 - 1st day of war The little dictator Putin rose within a very short time from dictator to state terrorist and from there to war criminal - respect! Our thoughts are now with the millions of Ukrainian citizens who are to be bombed into a dictatorship by this war criminal and then to face a bleak future of much suffering and oppression. If you haven't understood it yet: Putin actually wants a Soviet Union 2.0! These include the Baltic states and Poland. I am afraid that he is considering attacking these states despite their NATO mem- bership. And the more threatened his power in Russia is, the more unpredictable and aggressive he will act. We Germans and Europeans must finally say goodbye to our "everyone is actually nice" thinking! We've been trapped in a pink cloud and closed our eyes to reality for far too long. Chancellor Scholz's statement on Putin's desire for expansion also fits in with this: "If we took him at his word, we would have no reason to be optimistic about the future. But I refuse to do that." Unfortunately, there will always be people who have no respect for the lives of others and who want to tyrannize and dominate others through violence, lies and deceit. Putin is a typical, albeit particularly psychopathic, official of this kind. Such people cannot be restrained from their aggressiveness with arguments, cajoling and diplomatic behavior. These people only respect strength and, unfortunately, sometimes only understand violence. It's like the hooligan who bullies and beats up weaker and smaller classmates in the schoolyard. With such a hooligan, no persuasion or admonition will help. Only when someone "kicks him in the balls" does he let go of his classmates. Maybe we're finally realizing that correct gendering, cancel culture and many other excesses of mis- understood political correctness will not help us against the real world out there. We must not look at the certainly absolutely necessary efforts to improve the climate in isolation and solely from a German point of view, but only in global interaction. We must align these with the political and economic reality around us. If we ruin our country through false dependencies and failed climate policies, we no longer have any weight on the world stage and are then "the defenseless and weak child" in the schoolyard. Economically, we are largely only dependent on gas from Russia, but our dependency on China is far greater. Therefore, I think it is now absolutely necessary to implement the following measures quickly: Reintroduction of conscription. Every one of us should be able to defend ourselves against mili- tary force from outside. Reach the 2% target for defense spending as quickly as possible. More spending, better equipment and training in mobile units, and less spending on prestige pro- jects like the Eurofighter. A single Eurofighter costs about 98 million euros to purchase without operating costs (source de.statista.com). For example, for the same money you could buy almost 400 Stinger anti-aircraft missiles for mobile units. Improved defense capabilities against hacker attacks on our infrastructure. Decoupling important infrastructure in the water, energy and health sectors from the Internet and the associated dangers of hacker attacks. Establishment of our own chip factories together with our western partners. We have to become less dependent on imports from China as quickly as possible. Review of every technology transfer to other countries with special consideration of future de- pendencies. This should by no means only be seen from an economic point of view. State subsidies for companies in Europe that are in competition with totalitarian states such as China and for which there are no equivalent alternatives in western countries. From an energy policy point of view, the continued operation of our nuclear power plants for the next few years. 7 / 44
Of course, this also includes immediately and comprehensively decoupling Russia from the free world economically, monetary policy and technologically. WAKE UP GERMANY! WAKE UP EUROPE! WAKE UP FREE WORLD! PS: Isn't there actually a crowdfunding platform through which one can deposit funds for the removal of war criminals? ;-) 8 / 44
02/26/2022 - 3rd day of war Heroes are born every day in Ukraine. Heroes who courageously oppose the invasion of the Russian aggressor and have no regard for their own lives. Ukrainian President Zelenskyy is fighting alongside his army in Kyiv, trying to defend the Ukrainian capital. He does so knowing that if captured by the Russian invaders, he would face torture and death. And you, Vladimir? Where are you? Are you with your troops in Ukraine or at least in the safe staging area on the outskirts of Ukraine? No, you hide in the Kremlin and cling to your oversized desk. You want to be a leader of Russia? You are just pathetic! Every single citizen of Ukraine shows more bravery every day in defense of their homeland than you have mustered in your whole life together. You send your troops to their deaths in a war of aggression that violates international law. You are responsible not only for every single Ukrainian wounded and dead, but also for every Russian soldier. They are sons and fathers of Russian citizens who will mourn their loss. Her blood is on your hands. And you probably didn't expect the invasion to be so bloody and so long. You can tell how angry you are with every speech. The actual conflict for you and your criminal cronies has only just begun. Dear defenders of Ukrainian freedom. You fight heroically against the Russian aggressor every day. But the Russian army is far superior to you technically and logistically. The Russians are also attacking your country from several sides at the same time, which is why a coordinated defense is very difficult to carry out. You must gather under- ground and then attack in small squads from ambush. You have to feed the occupiers thousands of pinpricks. A single pinprick doesn't hurt. But thousands will become a big problem for the Russian army. Then the people of Russia will see the effects of this war of aggression. Then they will realize what their "leader" Putin has done and will hopefully boldly take the right steps to overthrow this dicta- tor. Because only when Putin has to answer for his war crimes before the International Criminal Court in The Hague will Ukraine and great Russia be free again. Stays hard! 9 / 44
02/28/2022 - 5th day of war The war criminal Putin has gambled several times: He banked on the fact that the EU was divided, but he achieved the opposite. The EU is closed like never before. He bet on the breakup of NATO, now NATO has moved closer together. He wanted to weaken NATO, but now more and more countries want to join NATO because of his aggressiveness. And even Germany will now massively increase its defense spending within the framework of NATO. He was sure that the free world would not impose common and severe sanctions against Russia; the opposite is now the case. Even neutral Switzerland has adopted all EU sanctions against Russia. The reason given is that Putin's war is "the greatest violation of international law since the Second World War." He believed that he could occupy Ukraine without much reaction from the world. Now almost the entire free world is united against him. Russia is completely isolated. He reckoned that the Ukrainians were too divided and that he could therefore take Ukraine with- out much resistance. Now he has to realize that Ukraine is united and defending itself against the Russian aggressors with extreme courage. It is unbelievable to see how bravely the Ukrainian military and the thousands of volunteers are standing up to the attackers! He believed that President Zelenskyy was weak and would flee Ukraine as soon as possible. The opposite is the case; Zelenskyj is proving to be a true and extremely courageous president of his country, who is defending Kyiv and the whole of Ukraine together with his compatriots. He was sure that because of his threats, Ukraine would not receive any military aid from the EU and the US. Now even Luxembourg is supplying arms to Ukraine. He believed that China would back him in the invasion of Ukraine. However, China abstained from the UN and also referred to the sovereignty and inviolability of free states. All of this leads to the fact that Putin is now more and more cornered like a rat. The problem is, when someone like Putin is cornered, is he confident enough to step back and admit a mistake, or will he leave behind scorched earth? He has hardly any alternatives to bring the disaster he has caused under control. In order to save face, he must now take Ukraine as quickly as possible. However, he will only be able to do this with extreme brutality or the fight will drag on endlessly with thousands of dead on both sides. The number of Russian soldiers killed is already extremely high. They vary between 3,500 and 4,800 depending on the source. He won't be able to hide that from his citizens much longer. And already more and more details of this cruel war of aggression are leaking out in Russia and expose Putin as a liar. Unfortunately, I suspect that Putin will resort to brutal means. That fits more with his weak character. It is also fitting that he has now sent his brutal mercenaries from the "Wagner" group to eliminate the alleged "Nazi" government in Ukraine. Incidentally, the "Wagner" group is led by the self-confessed Nazi Utkin, who named the group after Adolf Hitler's favorite composer. Chechen killers of warlord Kadyrov are also said to be on their way to Kyiv to execute President Zelenskyy and his government there as bounty hunters. I can only hope that the leadership of the Russian military can still exert a moderating influence on this war criminal. The military leadership will certainly be the first to see through Putin's lies, that what is at stake here is not the "liberation" of Ukraine, but the subjugation of a brother nation. In addition to the Ukrainian population, I also feel sorry for the simple Russian soldiers who are literally "burned" by Putin. Every death on both sides makes my heart bleed; it's just such a shame! 10 / 44
03/02/2022 - 7th day of war At an emergency special session today, members of the UN General Assembly overwhelmingly con- demned Russia's war of aggression in Ukraine. The result of the election speaks for itself: Previously, German Foreign Minister Ms. Annalena Baerbock gave a remarkable speech to the UN General Assembly, here is an excerpt: ... A few days ago, a little girl was born in a Kyiv subway station. I heard her name is Mia. Her family had to seek shelter - like millions of other people across Ukraine. Protection from bombs and rockets, from tanks and grenades. They live in fear, they live in pain. They are forced to separate from their loved ones. Because Russia started a war of aggression against Ukraine. ... The principles of the United Nations provide the framework for our peace: for an order based on common rules, international law, cooperation and peaceful conflict resolution. Russia has brutally attacked this order. And that is why this war is not only about Ukraine, not only about Europe, but about all of us. Russia's war means a new era. We are at a crossroads. Yesterday's certainties no longer apply. Today we face a new reality that none of us chose. It's a reality that President Putin has imposed on us. Russia's war is a war of aggression. And it is based on infamous lies, which Foreign Minister Lavrov repeated again today at the UN Human Rights Council. You say you act in self-defense. But the whole world saw how you massed your troops for months in preparation for this at- tack. They say Russia is acting to protect Russian speakers from aggression. But today the whole world sees you bombing the homes of Russian-speaking Ukrainians in Kharkiv. They say Russia is sending peacekeepers. But your tanks don't bring water, your tanks don't bring baby food, your tanks don't bring peace. Their tanks bring death and destruction. And the truth is that you are abusing your power as a permanent member of the Security Council. Mr. Lavrov, you can fool yourself. But don't fool us. Our peoples will not deceive you - nor will you deceive your own people. ... There is nothing to add! 11 / 44
03/03/2022 - 8th day of war I still had a very small hope that Putin would show himself as a statesman and stop further attacks on Ukraine. But Putin made a different decision. No matter what this means for the future of Russia. No matter what this will cost its citizens in the years and decades to come. He wants to brutally defeat the Ukraine until he achieves his "final victory". Putin's criminal war of aggression is already having fatal consequences for Ukraine and Russia. These include, among other things: More than 1 million Ukrainians have already fled their homeland and are seeking refuge in neigh- boring Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Moldova. Millions more civilians are still on the run in Ukraine. Between 4,600 and 7,400 Russian soldiers have already died (depending on the source). I did not take into account the "official" Russian figure of 498 dead soldiers here. Unfortunately, from past experience, the actual number is at least ten times higher than admitted by Russia. According to the Ukrainian rescue service, more than 2,000 civilians have been killed so far. Tens of thousands of civilians, Ukrainian and Russian soldiers were wounded, some seriously. Hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians seek shelter from bombs and shelling in basements and subways. The cities of Kharkiv (1.4 million inhabitants, of which around 70% are Russian-speaking), Mariu- pol (440,000 inhabitants) and Zhytomyr (266,000 inhabitants) are destroyed by Russian bombs and rockets. In addition to large cities, small towns and settlements are also bombarded from the air and with artillery. Tanks roll into villages. Hospitals, administrations, infrastructure and residential areas are systematically destroyed. In the cities of Kharkiv and Mariupol, the trapped civilians have no water, electricity or food. Gro- cery stores are also being targeted there in order to starve the residents. Civilian facilities are also being attacked and bombed in Kyiv (2.8 million inhabitants). The fact that Kyiv is not completely destroyed is probably due to the interest that the future puppet gov- ernment should reside there. In my eyes, a "genocide" is being carried out on the Ukrainian population here! Fortunately, the Inter- national Criminal Court in The Hague now wants to start an investigation into possible war crimes in Ukraine as soon as possible. One of the reasons given by Putin for his brutal invasion is that Russia has "legitimate security inter- ests" and that Ukraine must therefore be "demilitarized". You should let this nonsense melt in your mouth. To better understand this incredible demand, imagine the following fictitious headline: "Latvian President Egils Levits is demanding full demilitarization from Russia because it feels threat- ened by Russia. He has a legitimate interest in doing so and therefore Russia must comply with the demands immediately." The Latvian President has every reason to feel threatened by Russia. But this comparison shows how absurd Putin's demands on Ukraine are. But let's let the numbers do the talking (source "Wikipedia"): Russian military operations since 1991 Ukrainian military operations since 1991 1991-1992: Military intervention in the Georgian-South Ossetian - War 1992: Conflict in East Prigorodny district of North Ossetia 1992: Military intervention in the Transnistria conflict: The Moldo- van side alleges that Russia's 14th army took an active part in the war. 1992-1997: military intervention in the civil war in Tajikistan 1992-1993: Support for Abkhazian guerrillas in the Georgian- Abkhazian war 1994-1996: First Chechen War 1999-2009: Second Chechen War 1999: Dagestan War 2008: Military action in the Caucasus War on the side of the South Ossetian rebels 12 / 44

And Mr. Lawrow, in his confused speech to the UN General Assembly, said that the Ukrainian gov- ernment wanted to turn their country into an "anti-Russia" country. Mr. Lawrow, you don't need any alleged help from the Ukrainian government, you can do it all by yourself with your brutal war of ag- gression! Now Russia is shutting down the popular radio station "Echo Moscow" and wants to ban other TV stations that do not report on the war in their propaganda sense. The censorship board has also banned the media from using the terms "invasion", "attack" or "declaration of war" in connection with the invasion of Ukraine. The terms "military operation" or "peacekeeping mission" should be used instead. All this makes it so difficult for the Russian people to identify who actually committed this crime. But there are rumblings in Russia, as evidenced by the number of rising demonstrations in Moscow, Saint Petersburg and many other cities. More and more people recognize the lies of Putin and his government. Hopefully this will result in Putin's regime being overthrown and the criminals facing justice. The following picture from February 27, 2022 shows more than clearly that Putin is al- ready afraid of his surroundings: 13 / 44
03/05/2022 - 10th day of war Instead of taking care of his country, Putin has withdrawn more and more from day-to-day politics. Instead, according to various sources around him, he mainly studies books on the history of Russia. From the extracts of the most diverse stories, he puts together his own and ideologically extremely dangerous distorted picture of the world, as if from a building set. And because of his paranoia, he only surrounds himself with a few subordinates he can trust. These subordinates only tell him what he wants to hear and what suits his disturbed world view. Putin lives in the famous "filter bubble". To make matters worse, Putin appears to have health problems. Indications are that he no longer has his facial expressions under control. His face looks bloated and he has to keep his hands on some- thing to keep his trembling fingers from being noticed. His posture is no longer powerful, but down- right slack. All of this leads, in my view, to Putin believing that now is the time to ruthlessly and uncompromisingly impose his will on Europe and the world. He is currently using his quirky worldview to justify the war in Ukraine. He will try with all his might and absolute brutality to conquer Ukraine. If another country stands in his way, this will also be destroyed. And I fear that he will not shy away from a confrontation with NATO either. He feels called upon to continue fighting until the "final victory" of his delusion. He will not rest until he has conquered all of Europe. To do this, he must look for reasons to draw NATO into this conflict. I think it's most likely that he will use the sanctions imposed on him and Russia as a reason. He will threaten countries with a declara- tion of war if they do not lift the sanctions imposed on him. If these countries bow to his pressure, he has practically already subjugated them. If they don't, he will threaten them with nuclear annihilation. He probably sees himself in his infantile imagination as "Vladimir the Great". Only through him and his power can "his" empire of Russia shine to new heights and all of Europe will be his subjects. Unfortunately, the opposite will be the case. Should there actually be a military conflict with NATO, a large part of Russia would also be destroyed. In general, the damage that Putin has already done to Russia can hardly be grasped. If he goes down in history now, then at best he will still be called "Vladimir the Deceiver" or "Vladimir the Incompetent". If my fears come true, though, it'll be more like "Vladimir the Bloodthirsty" or "Vladimir the Butcher". Therefore, in my opinion, only the courageous citizens and the military in Russia itself can stop him before he can realize his insane ideas. 14 / 44
03/07/2022 - 12th day of war The city of Kharkiv is hit by artillery and bombs on a daily basis, even though 70 percent of the popu- lation there are Russian speakers. Above all, the civilian infrastructure and residential buildings in the city are being destroyed. This is astonishing for the neutral observer, since the Kremlin and its state- loyal media are constantly proclaiming that the so-called "special military operation" is only being car- ried out to protect the Russian-speaking population. The Kremlin's justification for its cruel war of aggression is that the Ukraine must be "denazified". The government is said to consist only of drug-addicted Nazis. If that's true, then why is the Jewish community in Odessa, including Holocaust survivors, taking their children to safety in Germany to protect them from Putin? And why do you see the posters below on March 5th in Tel Aviv at a demonstration against the Ukraine war? Demonstrators carry placards and flags during a protest against the Russian invasion of Ukraine near the Russian embassy in Tel Aviv, March 5, 2022. (Tomer Neuberg / Flash90) I think the citizens of Israel and the Jewish community in Odessa are probably the best placed to identify and name actual Nazis. I myself also think that Putin is clinging to a National Socialist idea and is therefore a "Nazi" himself. Let's take a closer look at the term "Nazi" as an abbreviation for "National Socialist". According to Wikipedia, "National Socialism" is a radically anti-Semitic, racist, nationalist (chauvinist), folkish, social Darwinist, anti-communist, anti-liberal and anti-democratic ideology. Let's compare that to the dictator Putin: With its desire for "denazification" it mocks the victims of that time by equating them with the gov- ernment of an independent state led by the Jewish President Zelenskyj. He denies Ukraine's right to exist. In his opinion, Russia is above all other countries. Other countries have to show him "respect". He consciously uses the old terminology of Great Russians, Belarusians and Little Russians. They are all united by the same language, the same traditions and the same orthodox belief. He uses the term "Little Russians" for the inhabitants of Ukraine. They find the term extremely con- descending. Putin and his oligarchs funded a new research clinic near St. Petersburg. The "genome of the Russians" is also to be decoded in this research clinic. By the way, Putin's daughter Marija Woronzowa has a leading position as a biomedical scientist there. He only respects strength. He despises weak persons, countries and societies. The law of the strongest applies to him. He has an estimated private fortune of at least 36 billion euros (as of 01/2021), while above all the rural population of Russia has to live close to the poverty line. He allows no opinion other than his own. He has opposition politicians imprisoned or killed. The historian Nikita Petrov says in an interview with the magazine "stern": "What Putin is telling about Ukraine is actually almost identical to what Hitler said about Czechoslo- vakia in 1938: a state whose existence in its current form threatens peace in Europe. A minority that threatens and discriminates and who is cooped up against her will in this state. A leader who can no longer look at the misery and poverty of this minority. You only have to replace the word Sudeten Germans in Hitler's speech with Ukrainians and you have Putin's speech in front of you." 15 / 44
Putin wants to destroy Ukraine and is responsible for the deaths of thousands of innocent civilians and thousands of soldiers on both sides. Unfortunately, there are now no independent media in Rus- sia that can tell the truth about this to the citizens of Russia. The last "loophole" for independent re- porting was closed by the Russian parliament on March 4. Anyone who does not report on the war in the spirit of Putin risks extremely long prison sentences. But even if it takes a long time, the truth will come out. Hundreds of thousands of Russian soldiers are directly and indirectly involved in the military operation, and it is impossible to muzzle them all. The Russian leadership can still hide hundreds of dead soldiers from the public, but no more than thou- sands of dead. And while he will be able to occupy Ukraine with brute force, thanks to the heroic Ukrainian citizens and soldiers, he will never be able to possess and conquer it! Long live the free and democratic Ukraine! 16 / 44
03/10/2022 - 15th day of war Putin and his military committed the next war crime in Ukraine as part of their "peace mission": they bombed a children's hospital in the city of Mariupol on Wednesday. How many civilian casualties were injured or died in the attack is not yet reliably known. Unfortunately, this is not the first war crime committed by Russia in Ukraine. Schools, kindergartens, hospitals, residential buildings and other civilian facilities were repeatedly bombed by the Russian military. The dreaded TOS weapon was also used there at least once. This armored multiple rocket launcher fires rockets containing thermobaric warheads. The use of this weapon is prohibited under the Geneva Conventions. Now Putin has taken further steps to ruthlessly subdue Ukraine: He sent the brutal Nazi mercenaries of the "Wagner" group to Ukraine. He deploys the Chechen Islamists of ruler Kadyrov's special forces, who are considered particu- larly unscrupulous. He recruits Assad's Syrian mercenaries for the fight in Ukraine. I doubt that these violent groups will abide by international law. Now the devil's advocate, Mr. Lavrov, has accused the US of operating bioweapons laboratories in Ukraine. Of course, he does not present any reliable evidence. I fear that this is intended as a perfidi- ous prelude and "alibi" for a limited Russian false flag bioweapons attack on Ukraine. After the attack, Russia will then claim that they "accidentally" shelled such a bioweapons lab and therefore the US is responsible for the effects. We already saw that Russia uses its biological and chemical weapons without hesitation or tolerates their use in Syria and in the poisoning of various unpopular people such as Aleksey Navalny, Sergei Skripal and his daughter Julia, Alexander Litvinenko, Vladimir Kara- Mursa, Viktor Yushchenko, Yuri Shchekochikhin, Anna Politkovskaya, Pyotr Versilov, Dmitry Bykov and many others. In this respect, I think it's good that both the International Court of Justice (ICJ) in The Hague and the German Federal Public Prosecutor in Karlsruhe are investigating possible war crimes in Ukraine. In my opinion, possible violations of international criminal law should be prosecuted. Of course, the tyrants in the Kremlin don't like that, so their propaganda stations immediately went on a confrontation. In various programs, Germany was denied the right to investigate possible war crimes against Russia because of its Nazi past. It is true that Germany brought unbelievable suffering to the world during the 3rd Reich. Millions of people were not only killed in Russia by Nazi Germany, but also millions in Ukraine. These atrocities committed by Germany must never be forgotten! But it is precisely for this reason that we grandchil- dren and great-grandchildren of the Nazi generation have an obligation to stand up against injustice and barbarism and not look the other way! It is irrelevant which country is responsible for the injustice. Russia therefore has no license to oppress Ukraine and commit war crimes there. Without wanting to put the terror of the Nazis into perspective, millions of Ukrainians also lost their lives as a result of Stalin's reign of terror. The Ukraine was wiped out between the two terror regimes of the time, Hitler's Germany and Stalin's Russia. This must not be repeated from any side! 17 / 44
03/12/2022 - 17th day of war Without declaring war, Russia attacked democratic and free Ukraine. Ukraine has never threatened or attacked Russia before! Now Russia's soldiers are roaming the country murdering, summoned to do so by a megalomaniac dictator. Russia's soldiers murder by destroying inhabited towns, villages and communities with artillery and rockets. Russia's soldiers murder by bombing hospitals, schools and homes with their air force. Russia's soldiers murder by shooting at refugees with mortars and machine guns. Russia's soldiers murder by starving the people in the cities. Human Rights Watch has now confirmed the use of cluster munitions in populated areas. On Febru- ary 28, 2022, at least three residential areas in Kharkiv (second largest city in Ukraine) were said to have been hit with cluster munitions. The 9M55K cluster munitions rocket was used. The use of clus- ter munitions is prohibited under international humanitarian law, the so-called martial law. The Russian government is currently reacting with outrage that Facebook posts are calling for vio- lence against Russian soldiers in Ukraine. It is also disgraceful that in some posts Putin is wished for death. They demand that these "extremist activities" must be investigated immediately. I'm not a fan of Facebook, but I find Russia's reaction really amazing. Above all against the back- ground of the repeated war crimes committed by Russia in Ukraine. Who is calling for these war crimes in Ukraine? About Facebook? But rather the Russian government and its military leaders. This is what I call "extremist activity" which needs to be investigated immediately! Of course, the Ukrainians have the right to defend themselves against the Russian invaders. Accord- ing to international law, Russian soldiers are a legal military target in Ukraine, so they can be fought by Ukrainian soldiers, militias and volunteer corps (so-called "combatants") at any time. If civilians are attacked by Russian soldiers, they naturally also have the right to defend themselves. In this case, civilians are allowed to fight military targets and are not liable to prosecution under international crimi- nal law. It is unfortunate that Russian soldiers can be injured and killed in the process. But only Putin and his army are responsible for that! I myself wish that this war criminal Putin and his gang would have to answer for their crimes before the International Criminal Court in The Hague. My thoughts are now with the brave and courageous Ukrainians. I hope they can stop the brutal Rus- sian invaders and drive them out of their country. Glory to Ukraine! 18 / 44
03/14/2022 - 19th day of war In Ukraine, Putin and his henchmen continue to murder and there is no end in sight. On the contrary, it's getting worse every day. We cannot turn a blind eye to this brutality, especially as Russia's attack on Ukraine soon threatens global famine. We must finally put a stop to this! I can absolutely under- stand and understand that the NATO countries are afraid of establishing a no-fly zone in Ukraine. I thought so too for a long time, but now I think we're wrong. I have the great fear that Putin will attack NATO territory in the next few years anyway. By then at the latest we will be at war with Russia. So I think we should now give Putin a choice: either he pulls his troops out of Ukraine completely within a week, or we shoot every damn Russian plane out of the sky. And we will also destroy from the air all Russian equipment that has not left Ukraine within this week. Of course, unless Putin backs down, that would be a war between Russia and NATO. But Putin understands only strength and despises weakness. If we don't want to establish a no-fly zone to protect Ukraine now, then we must deliver enough anti- tank and anti-aircraft weapons to Ukraine NOW! Not in a week, but NOW! Because every plane shot down, every helicopter destroyed, every tank destroyed, every destroyed artillery piece and every destroyed rocket launcher on the part of Russia helps Ukraine to survive for a few more days and protects its people. And it helps Georgia, Moldova and the Baltic States and even- tually the rest of Europe. Because any destroyed Russian military equipment can no longer be used for further brutal raids on them. We all know that Putin's morbid lust for power, with his twisted "historical" understanding of history, will not end with the conquest of Ukraine. In his own sick mental world, he wants to conquer large parts of Europe. But the fewer functioning military materiel and personnel he has available for his ag- gression, the safer we are all from him. So, let's not forget, brave Ukraine is fighting for all of us right now! So, we have to support them NOW with whatever we can militarily provide them with. And we must impose further painful sanctions on Russia immediately. This also includes an immediate import stop for gas, oil and coal. I know this is going to be difficult for all of us. But we only have economic losses and or freeze, in Ukraine people die on the other hand. Something I still care about: Russian soldiers in Ukraine are perpetrators and enemies, not liberators. They must be consistently stopped with all might, even if they die in the process. But Russian citizens in Europe and the world are not enemies. They have often fled the dictatorship in Russia themselves and are ashamed of the crimes committed by the Russian leadership and it's military in Ukraine. Also, most citizens in Russia have no idea what kind of atrocities are being perpetrated in their name by what is propagandistically called the "peace mission". They too are victims, not perpetrators! The perpetrators are the criminal clan around the "Nazi" Putin and some senior military figures. They must be stopped, prosecuted and condemned. Of course, there are also nationalistically inclined luna- tics in the Russian population who, despite knowing about Putin's lies and the war crimes committed, stand by the war of aggression. But these are in the minority and will later have to answer for their help in these crimes against humanity. 19 / 44
