It is official that Russia is indeed invading the Ukraine, as reports from social media are pouring in depicting what is actually transpiring.
This report will cover some of the chaos taking place.
AUTHOR’S NOTE: Last night I reported on the first reports of missile strikes in Ukraine, with a thumbnail that was meant to be facetious:
At the time the reports were coming out, the media definitely overhyped it, and claiming that Kiev was hit by a missile strike. However, live camera footage showed that everything was calm, and no panic to be seen. Right before dawn, there was indeed a small explosion that occurred way off in the distance, but that was it.
That video, unfortunately, was taken down, as many other live cameras throughout Ukraine are getting scrubbed as well.
But, it is evident that there indeed is a real assault on Ukraine and targets against military bases. I said that I did not believe an invasion would occur, but it appears I was wrong. Just goes to show you that I am far from perfect.
Moving forward with this Russia-Ukraine quagmire, I will be focusing more of the reports on what is ACTUALLY going on in Ukraine, and less of the dog & pony show stuff in the media that we know is not being honest with us. -They were never honest about Covid for a nanosecond, or before that too, so why would that change now?
There is too much to cover with this, but I will continue to do my best to provide some interesting insights you will be hard-pressed to find elsewhere.
Stay Out Of Our Way
Vladimir Putin, in announcing the order to perform special operations in the Dombass region, made it clear to the world to not interfere, or face the dire consequences, he said.
Whoever tries to hinder us, and even more so, to create threats to our country, to our people, should know that Russia’s response will be immediate. And it will lead you to such consequences that you have never encountered in your history.
We are ready for any development of events. All the necessary decisions have been made in this regard. I hope that I will be heard.
President Biden in a press conference today, when asked what he thinks Putin meant by that, he said,
I have no idea what he’s threatening, I know what he has done.
Calls For Peace
As invasion forces move across different parts of Ukraine, President Volodymyr Zelensky said he is open to negotiation with Putin to put an end to the conflict.
Zelensky called out to Western leaders and supposed allies this morning, to discuss sending aid in this conflict. But the Western nations are leaving Ukraine high and dry.
I asked them – are you with us? They answered that they are with us, but they don’t want to take us into the alliance. I’ve asked 27 leaders of Europe, if Ukraine will be in NATO, I’ve asked them directly — all are afraid and did not respond.
We were left by ourselves. Who is ready to go to war for us? Honestly, I don’t see anybody. Who is ready to give Ukraine guarantees of NATO membership? Honestly, everybody is afraid.
This sentient is something The WinePress has addressed in other reports prior to this conflict boiling over, and noted Ukraine is being used as yet another pawn of the United States and NATO military industrial complex.
Zelensky said in address, according to RT, he is open to the possibility of discussing a neutral agreement, but was insistent upon getting third party guarantees.
We are not not afraid of Russia, we are not afraid to talk with Russia, talk about everything: security guarantees for our country and a neutral status. But we are not in NATO now – what security guarantees will we have? Which countries will give them?
Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said on Thursday that “neutral status and rejection of hosting [offensive] weapons systems” are Putin’s “red lines” for Ukraine and that the ball was now in Kiev’s court,’ wrote RT.
Media Beating The War Drum
The media, both mainstream and alternative, are trying to pour more gas on the fire, and ignite the masses into clamoring for more conflicts for no reason.
For example, the Daily Mail, wrote today about President Biden’s response and actions at the latest presser discussing the invasion:
There’s the likely dementia-plagued US President Sleepy Joe Biden, who, at 79, barely managed to stutter and stumble his way through a scripted address about the crisis two nights ago. How are we meant to believe Biden can rally the western world behind a once-in-a-generation effort to stop a modern-day Hitler plunging Europe into a prolonged war, when his disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal was proof the US has lost moral authority on the international stage?
Moreover, Hugo Talks, reports that some of the British reporters in the alternative media are also enticing viewers to want war, and posture that this would have had never remotely happened unless Trump was still President.
Check out the short video for more details:
Others in the media were beating the drum to a different tune, per say. For example, CNN today showed a clip of air-raid sirens blaring in Kyiv, but then abruptly cut to an upbeat Applebee’s commercial, totally changing the tone of the situation.
Moreover, High Impact Flix, also shows CNN playing up the drama, by having a reporter in Ukraine react to a purported sound of a bomb, who then proceeded to suit up in safety gear on camera. As seen in the video, the media has done that same exact manipulation tactic for years.
Attacks
As it currently stands, it is being reported that 57 innocents have died, and 169 have been injured in these attacks.
One video that has been getting a lot of circulation on social media depicts a Russian fighter jet flying very low to the ground, and firing a missile into civilian neighborhoods.
Currently, YouTube channel “Suchomimus” has been rapidly uploading clips of the conflict, showing carnage, casualties, and already some prisoners of war. Definitely check out the channel before it gets scrubbed, but I have linked a few for you to check out.
Civilian Updates
On top of this, Patrick Lancaster, a field reporter in and near Donetsk, has been documenting the action: shellings, casualties, and other civilian interviews.
According to him, currently he is unsure of who is in control of Donetsk. Furthermore, there are many contested battles across Ukraine.
Another Ukrainian vlogger, Olga Reznikova, who The WinePress has cited her perspectives in this ordeal, documents what has been going on by driving through different districts and filming how the people are acting.
According to her there have been some missile strikes in Kyiv. There have been lots of traffic jams in the city with families trying to leave. Many other civilians are hiding out in the underground metro stations, which are buried quite deep under the surface, acting as a makeshift bomb shelter.
Gas stations are running out of certain grades of fuel, coupled with long lines everywhere at the pumps.
Olga also reports long lines at the ATM’s in the supermarkets. The shops do not “look like some kind of panic.” A lot of food is still there, including meats and dairy. More baking goods are being purchased, by the stores were restocking during her visit. People do look noticeably nervous, which is only to be accepted.
In a separate video she gives a brief perspective on what the deal is surrounding the two separatist states of Luhansk and Donetsk, and why Russia is fighting for control of those states.
Follow The Money
In terms of the economic perspective, which no one in the media dares to cover, there are also some interesting insights.
Today the U.S. markets went down a whopping 900 points, but then rallied back to almost 100 in the green. Why? The Federal Reserve pumped in more liquidity and easy money.
In stock market expert Gregory Mannarino’s point of view, he says that the markets have collectively accepted and are pricing in for Russia to get all of Ukraine, not just the two separatist states. He is convinced that Russia will get them all; but then Putin will stop with the conflict, unless central banks wish to reignite the flames further.
Putin just bailed out the Federal Reserve, and world central banks in aggregate.
This [conflict] gave the Federal Reserve and [other central banks around the world] the greenlight … to continue to print [money] beyond your wildest dreams. Lower for longer.
All wars are banker wars.
It’s a win-win actually for Vladimir Putin, honestly: he gets the territory that he wants while at the same time allowing central banks, or giving the central banks exactly what they want – Now they inflate on an insane scale.
AUTHOR COMMENTARY
[7] And when ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars, be ye not troubled: for such things must needs be; but the end shall not be yet. [8] For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be earthquakes in divers places, and there shall be famines and troubles: these are the beginnings of sorrows.Mark 13:7-8
For more context and important details and insights, I recommend checking into our previous reports, to get a much fuller context to what is going on, apart from this total clown show playing out in front us, with innocents getting slaughtered for the sake of money.

As I said in this report, there is no way I’ll be able to keep pace with this calamity, but I will do the best that I can to keep you informed with ACTUAL information; not all these propaganda pieces written by psychos in mainstream, alternative, and religions media; salivating for war, and pushing a narrative that is patently false.
[7] Who goeth a warfare any time at his own charges? who planteth a vineyard, and eateth not of the fruit thereof? or who feedeth a flock, and eateth not of the milk of the flock? [8] Say I these things as a man? or saith not the law the same also? [9] For it is written in the law of Moses, Thou shalt not muzzle the mouth of the ox that treadeth out the corn. Doth God take care for oxen? [10] Or saith he it altogether for our sakes? For our sakes, no doubt, this is written: that he that ploweth should plow in hope; and that he that thresheth in hope should be partaker of his hope. (1 Corinthians 9:7-10).

I believe China is watching and will invade Taiwan before long…
Jacob, I know that you think Ezekiel 38 refers to the Revelation 20 invasion at the end of the millennium…but look at Ezekiel 38:8 After many days thou shalt be visited: in the latter years thou shalt come into the land that is brought back from the sword, and is gathered out of many people, against the mountains of Israel, which have been always waste: but it is brought forth out of the nations, and they shall dwell safely all of them.

The mountains of Israel will not be ‘waste’ during the Millennial Reign. I realize that prophecy often jumps about…sometimes a semi-colon, colon, or comma going from one dispensation to another, sometimes skipping over; and that we have to be careful & not dogmatic where not warranted. But as I study this, it’s looking like some of this is for these days leading up to the 70th week of Daniel, post-1947 when the mountains of Israel really were ‘waste’… Samuel Clemens/Mark Twain in ‘Innocents Abroad’ described it like this in 1867: “ …[a] desolate country whose soil is rich enough, but is given over wholly to weeds-a silent mournful expanse….A desolation is here that not even imagination can grace with the pomp of life and action….We never saw a human being on the whole route….There was hardly a tree or a shrub anywhere. Even the olive and the cactus, those fast friends of the worthless soil, had almost deserted the country.”
– 1867 (Quoted in Mark Twain, The Innocents Abroad. London: 1881)

And regarding Togarmah, Turkey & those ethnic peoples’ speaking Turkestan, the ‘stans’. Chechnya sent death squads into the Ukraine after government officials, allied with both Russia & Syria.
Seems like the Ukraine applied for EU membership.
It is all over the net but I have no idea if it is real or not.
This crisis isn’t something that has happened overnight.
From what I understand, it has been an issues for years and it is an equivalent of the Cuban Missile Crisis back when JFK was president. Only it is NATO and the US working on being on Russia’s border and not missiles. Possibly US bio weapon labs being attacked by Russian forces but I am not really sure on that one.
One video I saw did raise an interesting question. Simply put, NATO was formed to counter the Warsaw pact (USSR allies pact) of the cold war. If the USSR’s Warsaw pact allies aren’t around anymore, then why does NATO still exist?
The same video mentioned that this about US selling energy to European markets. If Russia was allowed to sell theirs to Europe, it would of brought Russia and Europe closer together.
If that happened, US energy companies also would of been shut out of that market.
Biden’s influence with his son on an Ukrainian energy company and the influence on the country is another reason for what’s going down.
If you want the video I saw that mentioned this information, I’ll be glad to share with you and the site I found it on.
