[PEACE] Donbass Cowboy: getting the government you want and deserve, not imposed by McCain/CIA
by Zenaan Harkness 14 Aug '18

14 Aug '18

Essential reading for the interested. Donbass getting the government they want rather than that which McCain and the CIA tried to impose: "Sometimes you have to fight, even if you don’t expect to win. Ask the Spartans at Thermopylae, ask the Texicans at the Alamo. Or the people of the Donetsk People’s Republic. Because sometimes you win, even when you don’t expect to, even when the odds are stacked against you. But you will never know unless you try." "(The book) is a primer, a nuts and bolts instruction manual, a very honest and real glimpse of what it is like for a People's Militia to rise up and form itself, and to face a real national military ..." "We all die in the end, but it is up to each of us to choose how we live. We are what we do. This book is about what I and the Defenders of Donbass did. You can do the same." ** Texan Soldier Fighting on Pro-Russia Side in Ukraine Tells His Story in New Book - 'Donbass Cowboy' https://russia-insider.us9.list-manage.com/track/click?u=fa2faf7034c3c3c413… ------------------------------------------------------------ by Russell Bentley (1,109 views) on Mon, Aug 13, 2018 This book is my record of day to day life as a soldier in the Novorussian Armed Forces (NAF) at Yasynuvata, Spartak, and the Donetsk Airport during the times of the heaviest battles in 2015. It is not just a personal account, it is a unique part of the historical record of the Donbass War. There is not, nor will there be, another book like it, written in English by an American volunteer who served as a front line combat soldier in the war. Those who were not there cannot claim to know what it was like, the suffering, the struggles and sacrifices, why they were made, and who made them.

AP deconstructed: Why it has not happened yet, and will not
by Steve Kinney 13 Aug '18

13 Aug '18

Listen up you punks... I will assume that readers already know how "Assasination Politics" a.k.a. AP works. If not, look it up: I consider it a brilliant idea. But like many brilliant ideas, one can find structural flaws if one looks closely enough. Here's my set: 1) AP treats anonymity on the networks as a 'primitive', that is, a Platonic ideal: One either has anonymity or not, and if one does, nobody can remove it regardless of resources brought to bear. I see anonymity on the networks as nearly always relative and nearly never absolute. To achieve absolute anonymity, an individual must commit "the perfect crime" by connecting to the networks once, briefly, by physically breaking in at an access point not personally associated with him or herself. If not seen coming or going (a tricky prospect in 'civilized' countries these days), and all digital fingerprints left behind present a generic, non-traceable profile, success: Unbreakable anonymity. But any lesser feat of operational cyber-warfare leaves some smaller or larger probability that the message in question will be attributed to the right person. I say "message" rather than "messages" because each instance of 100% anonymous network access presents a fresh challenge. Re-using the same access point and/or techniques could potentially create an identifiable profile. "Really anonymous" network access presents as a job for well trained intelligence officers and/or assets, not John and Jane Q. Public looking to fund the removal of a politician they don't like. Designers and operators of anonymizing overlay networks generally agree, their tools do not by themselves provide "life safety" grade protection against an adversary with global network surveillance capability. Within the borders of a given State with a highly funded intelligence establishment, such global adversaries already exist. If AP rears its very interesting head, the first response from the community targeted for termination would include command directives and blank checks to turn the AP process inside out. Thus would exploitable gaps in network surveillance close up fast. AP depends on the ready availability of anonymity to thousands or millions bettors, and dozens or hundreds of professional assassins. Participation in any 'lottery of the doomed' (RIP Spain Rodriguez - and Trashman, agent of the 6th International) would immediately become a Federal felony with stiff minimum mandatory sentences. The unavailability of absolute anonymity for assassins, or even half-assed anonymity for John and Jane Q. Public, would at best seriously degrade the whole program. 2) Large numbers make fools of us all. AP appears to presume that abusive politicians. and the cartels of billionaires who elect and direct them, can not out-spend 'honest' participants in AP by orders of magnitude at need. Well... they can. And if required, they will. Bounties on actual and perceived "enemies of the State and ruling class" participating in the AP process would greatly exceed bounties on State and corporate offenders within weeks of the first pay-out by an honest AP game. Massive bounties for "information leading to the arrest and conviction" of AP operators and anyone collecting bets made in that lottery would greatly exceed those available to "honest" assassins who play by the rules of AP. (Anyone here naive enough to believe that AP lotteries can not and will not be outlawed within days of a perceived reason to do so?) Combined with top priority directives to /all/ intelligence and law enforcement agencies to shut that shit down PRONTO, hostile AP-like games would create a steep uphill climb for honest AP participants and winners. For a quick correction to "common sense" assumptions about income disparity in the USA - which is less than asset disparity by a couple of orders of magnitude - see http//lcurve.org 3) As a general conclusion, I think that for AP to work as intended and usher in an age of NAP based Anarchist society - an objective no truly sane individual could oppose IMO - it would be necessary for only "honest" lotteries that deny targeting of "Libertarian" figures to present games. But two can play at any game, as long as the second players in question happen to be filthy rich. In real life, "Operate an AP lottery, die within weeks of announcing it to the public and getting enough capital under management to motivate an assassin." Or in a best case scenario, pull 20 years without parole in a Federal prison. That same sentence would also be available to any random participant who happens to get "outed" by any of several technical means readily available to the NSA and comparable signals intelligence services. I do believe that the above factors explain why Assassination Politics has not been implemented in the 20 or so years the instructions have been floating around. As far as I know, nobody has even tried. Alas, for those who want to Change The World from the bottom up, it looks to me like conventional populist political warfare - the darkest of the Dark Arts - in the sense that nearly nobody outside agencies tasked to prevent it knows the first damn thing about how it works - remains the only game in town. :o/

So do not expect to hear anything beyond what you might find on twitter. tor-talk is also not the TS, ZF, RU principals to ask. Red 3d printed bombs. Riseup and Zwiebelfreunde activists infos added to State's lifetime secret investigation database. So carry on activist as usual. But without your own optional seizable databases this time, please.

Pursuit of peace from Tucker Carlson who names the attacks on The Daily Stormer and says we should be upholding the right to free speech, not attacking it and perhaps we should be concerned when Google etc censor The Daily Stormer and anyone else for that matter. Tucker - a man of some notable and foundational principles. Tucker Carlson defends The Daily Stormer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZEPIISeeAxs
