Today is the Centennial Celebration of Lenin's Death (Russian Tsar, not John)

Inspired by hearing this from someone recently emigrated from Russia, noting this day being historical, and sharing a post applauding (Murdoch's) _Wall Street Journal_f or mentioning it, but adding that it missed a bit of history, and/or geography,
David Satter posted on January 19. So where did the irreparable happen? Everyone knows - in Gorky (Leninsky). But David Satter demonstrates false erudition - he clarifies: "The first leader of the Soviet Union died on Jan. 21, 1924, in Gorki, Russia (now called Nizhny Novgorod), after repeated strokes."

So, in the spirit of the day, and a nod to #history... and to the one who made it possible for me to take a few relevant photos.
Спасибо / Thank you. I was lucky to have a chance to see Moscow in pleasant times, Sochi Olympics, good times. (2014!) 10 yrs.

But for anyone who "comes here for the music", OK, here goes, in sync with today, but from the other Lennon, John.
Back in the USSR 🎶
I do hope the good people I celebrated with then, but who are suffering now, do find sunshine again, soon.

The goal of this video is to try and explore how did our modern #cosmological viewpoint of #health arise? Why would someone feel that they need the medical establishment and science to save them?
We try and take a different approach to this argument by looking at its #Historical and #Spiritual context and connecting areas of thought that are not normally tied together. It is for you to decide what happened and what the solution can be for this is only meant to be an exercise in curiosity.

The Russians Call Out NASA
For decades, #Boomers who believe in the #Moon-Landing #narrative more firmly than they believe in #God, #Family, or #Country have argued that the landings couldn’t have been faked or the #Russians would have called out #NASA. But now the former head of the Russian space agency is doing precisely that.
The former head of #Russia’s #Roscosmos space agency, #DmitryRogozin, has expressed #doubt that the #US #Apollo-11 mission really landed on the #Moon in 1969, saying he has yet to see conclusive #proof.
In a post on his Telegram channel on Sunday, Rogozin said he began his personal quest for the truth “about ten years ago” when he was still working in the Russian government, and that he grew skeptical about whether the Americans had actually set foot on the Moon when he compared how exhausted Soviet cosmonauts looked upon returning from their flights, and how seemingly unaffected the Apollo 11 crew was by contrast.
#Rogozin said he sent requests for evidence to Roscosmos at the time. All he received in response was a book featuring Soviet Cosmonaut Aleksey Leonov’s account of how he talked to the American astronauts and how they told him they had been on the Moon.
The former official wrote that he continued with his efforts when he was appointed head of Roscosmos in 2018. However, according to Rogozin, no evidence was presented to him. Instead, several unnamed academics angrily criticized him for undermining the “sacred cooperation with NASA,” he claimed. The former Roscosmos chief also said he had “received an angry phone call from a top-ranking official” who supposedly accused him of complicating international relations.
Rogozin concluded by saying he still cannot believe that the US was able to pull off the feat, but is now unable to, despite the incredible progress in technology since the late 1960s. What he claims to have found out, however, was that Washington has “its people in [the Russian] establishment.”
Translation: NASA faked major elements of the space program and everyone in a place to know better kept quiet for fear of being targeted by #ClownWorld. But now it is becoming increasingly obvious and the official Moon landing narrative is rapidly crumbling.
I very much doubt this will be the only #historical #hoax to be exposed by the Russians over the next decade.

Having seen a fair few documentaries now concerning the Ukraine coup of 2014 I'm absolutely certain there's a lot more footage here that I haven't seen before.
This is an intelligently and sensibly very well put together compilation, which features some of the usual suspects such as Obama, Nuland, Pyatt, et al and how some mainstream broadcasters covered events. A very useful #historical #record which I'll pop in the library at some point.
Ukraine, The Alternate Truth
https://www.bitchute.com/video/y1yqRo2ZF6eG/
A #documentary that presents the #conflict in #Ukraine in a bit different light, built in a time line from 1930 until today with intent to #inform us on #historical #facts for us to build our own opinions.
Every statement is backed with real #evidence, video footage, statements, phone calls.
A must see documentary ~ For the world to see the truth!

Since 1948, #Palestinians have heroically mounted one #resistance effort after another, all unleashing disproportionate #Israeli reprisals and a demonization of the Palestinians as terrorists.
But this resistance has also forced the world to recognize the presence of Palestinians, despite the feverish efforts of #Israel, the #UnitedStates and many #Arab regimes to remove them from #historical consciousness.
The repeated #revolts, as Said noted, gave the Palestinians the right to tell their own story, the “permission to narrate.”
One of the central tenets of the #Zionist and #Israeli #colonization is the denial of an authentic, independent #Palestinian #identity.
During the #British control of #Palestine, the population was officially divided between Jews and “non-Jews.”
“There were no such thing as #Palestinians … they did not exist,” onetime Israeli Prime Minister #GoldaMeir quipped.
This erasure, which requires an egregious act of #historical amnesia, is what the Israeli sociologist Baruch Kimmerling called the “politicide” of the Palestinian people.
Khalidi writes, “The surest way to eradicate a people’s right to their land is to deny their historical connection to it.”
