So, I see rumors of politicians and bureaucrats being captured and jailed by a vigilante incentive in Kazakhstan.
Anyone with links to this? Is it trustworthy ?
What can be the ramifications of this if true?
I also think about how the situation is regarding police and riotsquads ; are there signs they are being influenced by the peoples wishes and needs or are they looking like obedient to the powers that be no matter what the situation?
There must be some real confidence they have the police and riotsquads on their side through all this.
The rumors that soldiers in most armies are vaxxed tells me there most likely are other squadrons they rely on, like private armies and mercenaries.
BUt i just cant see the numbers being there unless people should start dropping in extrreme numbers very soon.
The narrative is losing traction by the day, people are waking up en masse and since the elite has dropped the masks and are all in on this they wont give up,its either win or lose on this one, meaning to me there is an unavoidable clash ahead.
People will need to start influencing those friends and familymembers who are " just doing their job" in this scenario to think twice and whats best for the better whole.
I get they need their paycheck, but whats at stake is by far outwirghing this argument.
All the best to you and yours.
gives a hint.
does the â6 undergroundâ movie ring a bell to anyone?
The situation in Kazakhstan is a much bigger deal than Western media is letting on.
I believe it significantly increases the risk of NATO-Russia conflict.
Here is my report from Moscow. A MEGA-thread⌠
First, what is happening in Kazakhstan?
Mass protests and anti-government violence have left dozens dead.
Russia is deploying 3,000 paratroopers after Kazakh security forces were overrun.
The largest city, Almaty, looks like a warzone.
To appreciate why Russia is willing to deploy troops to Kazakhstan, itâs critical to understand the depth of Russiaâs vital national interests inside the country.
This isnât just any former Soviet republic.
Itâs almost as important to Russia as Belarus or Ukraine.
First, Russia and Kazakhstan have the largest continuous land border on planet earth.
If Kazakhstan destabilizes, a significant fraction of the countryâs 19 million residents could become refugees streaming across the border.
Russia is not willing to let that happen.
Second, roughly one-quarter of the population of Kazakhstan is ethnic Russians.
Kazakh nationalists are overwhelmingly Muslims, who resent the Orthodox-Christian Russian minority.
Russia believes that civil war would entail a non-trivial risk of anti-Russian ethnic cleansing.
Third, the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan was the heart of the Soviet space program.
Russia still uses it as its primary space-launch facility.
The Vostochny Cosmodrome in Russiaâs Far East will lessen that dependence, but it still isnât complete.
Fourth, Russia conducts its Anti-Ballistic Missile testing at the Sary-Shagan test site within Kazakhstan.
This is where ongoing development of the S-550 ABM system is occurring, one of the foundations of Russiaâs national security.
Fifth, Russiaâs nuclear fuel cycle is intimately linked to Kazakhstan.
Russian-backed Uranium mining operations are active in the country.
Uranium from Kazakhstan is enriched in Novouralsk, Russia and then returned to Kazakhstan for use in Chinese nuclear-fuel assemblies.
Collectively, these security interests make Kazakhstan a region that Russia is willing to stabilize with force.
The 3,000 troops it has already committed are not the maximum it is willing to deploy.
If necessary, these will only be the first wave of RU forces in the country.
The biggest question is how the situation in Kazakhstan will affect the existing standoff between Russia and NATO over Ukraine.
Will Russia be deterred from intervention in Ukraine by the need to maintain reserves to deploy to Kazakhstan?
Or will it simply be provoked?

Kazakhstanâs former intelligence chief has been arrested on suspicion of treason following nationwide anti-government protests.
The detention of Karim Massimov was announced by the National Security Committee, a body he headed until his removal this week.
Authorities now appear to be back in control of the largest city Almaty.
But President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev said âterroristâ attacks were still happening in some places.
He made the comments in a phone call with Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin, who sent hundreds of troops to Kazakhstan this week to help restore order.
President Tokayev has blamed foreign-trained âterroristsâ for the unrest, without giving evidence.
The presence of Russian troops has brought criticism from US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken, who said âone lesson of recent history is that once Russians are in your house, itâs sometimes very difficult to get them to leaveâ.
Russiaâs foreign ministry called Blinkenâs remarks offensive and responded with sharp words: âWhen Americans are in your house, it can be difficult to stay alive and not be robbed or rapedâ.
- AT THE SCENE: âLike something from an apocalypse filmâ
- BACKGROUND: Kazakhstan country profile
- CONTEXT: Why is there unrest in Kazakhstan?
The protests in Kazakhstan began in response to fuel hikes but grew to reflect discontent at the government and former President Nursultan Nazarbayev, who led the country for three decades and is still thought to retain significant influence.
The Interior Ministry says 26 âarmed criminalsâ and 18 security officers were killed in the clashes. More than 4,000 people have been detained, according to the ministry.
The figures have not been independently verified. Phone lines and internet services were down during the protests making establishing a full picture of events difficult.
Kazakh authorities gave no other details about why Mr Massimov was arrested.
On top of his role as head of the intelligence agency, which grew out of the Soviet state security force the KGB, Mr Massimov was a close ally of President Nazarbayev, twice serving as his prime minister.
His arrest has sparked rumours of a power struggle in the Kazakh government, the BBCâs Carrie Davies in Moscow reports.
Also this week President Tokayev removed Mr Nazarbayev from his role as head of the influential Security Council, appointing himself in his place.
there r yet unconfirmed rumours of a mandatory vaccination resistance popping this out, not the price of the gas.
it could be true. and it would explain the arresting of several government - security - officials as well, since ppl pushing the jab r MI6 and CIA goons all over the world.
Thanks a bunch! appreciated
Nice delivery ! Thanks so much for sharing
