There are no more words to describe the land of overt lies and deceit spewing forth from the hegemonic forces.  The constant stream of lies cannot be called ‘bluffing’ or any war propaganda initiative or optics any longer.  They are only bare-faced lies and spreading deceit.  I am remembering my Christian grandmother, when she found me reading a novel nicely hidden in my schoolbook.  This is what she said: “For outside are dogs and sorcerers, and whoremongers and murderers and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. ”  (But she skipped the bit about whoremongers, as she did not really want to explain it to a child).

This is a piece from Alcibiades, of the channel Donbass Devuska, commenting on an interview with the Defence Secretary of the UK where the lies and deceit spews forth.

Is this dude on drugs?

Ben Wallace, Defence Secretary of the United Kingdom, recently sat for an interview with BBC Radio 4 Today. In this interview he made a number of literally insane claims, to wit: (1) that the Russian Federation had no less than NINETY-SEVEN PERCENT its entire army in Ukraine; (2) that they had lost two-thirds of their entire tank fleet; (3) the Russian Army’s “combat effectiveness” had been “depleted” by forty percent; (4) that they were attacking with First World War-esque human waves and suffering catastrophic casualties; and (5) that due to this Europe’s security that noticeably improved. The Secretary noted that he was concerned that the Russian leadership was suffering from “a gap in reality” or was showing “no regard for human life of [their own soldiers].”

This is the most astonishing example of projection I have ever seen in my life, and it was delivered with an utterly straight face to one of the world’s most reputable media outlets without objection or even apparently substantial question by the interviewer. These claims are far beyond what even the most wildly diehard Ukrainian propagandists are pushing. If MI6 is briefing this information with a straight face, they are idiots. If decision-makers are receiving this information with a straight face, they are idiots. These are claims that could be sanity-checked by an average child. This isn’t gaslighting, this isn’t even a Big Lie – this is Orwellian bullshit so bold that Big Brother’s strongest info-war soldiers wouldn’t try to sell it to the population of Airstrip One.

Now you’ll have to excuse me, if I make this any longer I’m going to be late for this evening’s Two Minutes’ Hate.
