Nuclear Terrorism and the Dirty Bomb of the Donetsk Peoples Republic
Nuclear waste repository exists in the territory of the State Enterprise Dontesk Factory of Chemical Products [Ukr.: Донецький завод хімічних виробів, Rus.: Донецкий завод химических изделий], located at Sofiyska Street, 1, Donetsk. Approximately 150 containers with the used ionizing radiation source material are stored in this repository. Before the war the repository was controlled by Donestk Specialized Industrial Complex [Ukr.: Донецький державний спеціалізований комбінат, Rus.: Донецкий государственный специализированный комбинат], located at Shakhtarskoy Slavy Street, 2, Donetsk. Both enterprises and their premises are now controlled by the so-called Dontesk Peoples Republic.

The storage regime of the nuclear waste repository at the Factory of Chemical Products remains uncontrolled and is further complicated by the artillery shelling of this area, which lead to the partial destruction of the top layers of the protective concrete cover.
According to our insiders, leaders of the so-called Donetsk People Republic terrorist group are contemplating plans to use the nuclear waste containers from this repository to create a dirty bomb for terrorist activities against the people of Ukraine and, possibly, to supply other international terrorist organizations.

As long as western leaders & companies keep giving Putin's regime cash & credibility, he'll be confident enough to keep killing in Ukraine.
Giving Putin credibility with media appearances and summits is no better than donating bullets. It emboldens him, leading to more violence.

The New Authoritarians: Ruling Through Disinformation
PDF is worth reading.
By Daniel Lansberg-Rodrguez, Berivan Orucoglu, Gary Rawnsley and Abigail Fielding-Smith. Introduction by Peter Pomerantsev
Monday, 22 June 2015
To launch its 'Beyond Propaganda' series, the Legatum Institute has published a collection of essays that explore how and why neo-authoritarian and hybrid regimes have become more sophisticated in their use of propaganda in the 21st century.
This publication will be launched at the Legatum Institute on Monday, 22 June 2015.
Introduction
Pity the poor propagandist! Back in the 20th century it was a lot easier to control an authoritarian countrys hearts and minds. All domestic media could be directed out of a government office. Foreign media could be jammed. Borders were sealed, and your population couldnt witness the successes of a rival system. You had a clear narrative with at least a theoretically enticing vision of social justice or national superiority, one strong enough to fend off the seductions of liberal democracy and capitalism. Anyone who disagreed could be isolated, silenced, and suppressed.
Those were the halcyon days of what the Chinese call thought workand Soviets called the engineering of human souls. And until recently, it seemed as if they were gone forever. Todays smart phones and laptops mean any citizen can be their own little media centre. Borders are more open. Western films, cars, and search engines permeate virtually everywhere. All regimes are experimenting with at least some version of capitalism, which theoretically means that everyone has more in common.
But the pieces in this publication lay out a different story. Neo-authoritarian, hybrid, and illiberal democratic regimes in countries such as Venezuela, Turkey, China, Syria and Russia have not given up on propaganda, they have found completely new ways of pursuing it. Many of them use the technologies invented in the democratic world. Why fight the information age and globalisation when you can use it?
Often, the techniques are quite subtle. Analysing the real-time censorship of 1,382 Chinese websites during the first half of 201111,382,221 posts in allresearchers from Harvard University1 found that the governments propagandists did in fact tolerate criticism of politicians and policies. But they immediately censored any online attempts to organise collective protests, including some which were not necessarily critical of the regime. One heavily censored event, for example, was meant to highlight fears that nuclear spillage from Japan would reach China.
That analysis made clear that the governments priority is not to stop all criticism, but to undermine the self-organising potential of society. The Chinese people are individually free but collectively in chains, the Harvard study concludes. Indeed, the Internet has turned out to be a useful tool of control: it allows people to blow off steam, and also gives the government a barometer to measure public opinion. Read more
About the Beyond Propaganda Series
The 21st century is seeing a new scale of media manipulation, psychological war and disinformation. The technological capacity of the information age, a more liquid use of ideology by authoritarian regimes, and the Wests own difficulties in projecting democratic values have redefined the threat of propaganda. The Transitions Forums Beyond Propaganda series investigates these challenges and aims to identify solutions.
The Transitions Forum is a series of projects dedicated to the challenges and possibilities of radical political and economic change.
One Professor with a deep understanding of Russia/Ukraine--worth reading and listening to anything he releases--has been providing strong pushback on the Russian narrative on the "Ukraine is not a country" Russian propaganda.

Nature of RU amendments to EU-UA DCFTA is to have total control over EU-UA trade relations;that's another form of punishment for Ukraine.
DESPITE being told numerous times the EC will tolerate no Russian amendments they are still trying to insert themselves into the DCFTA negotiations in order to control them.

Demonstration now has grown to over 10K plus--government trying desparately to defuse the tension --has released all demonstrators taken prisoner yesterday.
This is just after the massive tension when a Russian soldier killed an entire Armenian family recently and Russia refused to release him to armenian authorities.
And the not explained killing of a Russia soldier who was out late one evening recently.
Crowds are now massive in size and they are holding on well into the evening now--many make comments such as --use water cannons on us and the crowds will get even larger.
Russian State TV is now accussing the US of funding local NGOs to provoke the government and led to a "coup".
Man is Russia afraid of the "colored revolts".

Right Sector troops fighting together with the Azov BN near Mariupol are indicating they believe the Russian mercenaries facing them have chemical weapons and may in fact use them to create largescale provocations blaming the UA.
They are not indicating how they learned of the chemical weapons.
NOTE--there was a serious indication of Russian gas being used in the final attack on the Cyborgs at the Donetsk airport allowing the russians to take the airport under their control.
This was a favorite tactic in the first and second Chechen wars and in the hostage taking in a Russian theater.
First reported shelling just came in 24 minutes ago for this evening--rather late and a minor surprise since the Normandy 4 are meeting in Paris--would have assumed the mercenaries would be firing rather intensively tonight to add pressure to the meetings.
BUT after TASS released a rather odd press release that stated the Ukrainians were violating the Minsk ceasefire 31 times the Russian monitoring logs at the JCCC reflect 122 times the mercenaries broke Minsk ceasefire vs 44 for the Ukrainians-when TASS was claiming 31 -TASS has gotten totally quiet on that accusation.
Shellings have now started to hit the traditional hotspots and are picking up in intensity --the mercenaries must have been out to dinner and are now back.

Seems the Armenian President has learned from the "Maidan"--he is now going to met with 10 reps from the demonstrators and journalists and live stream the meeting.
BUT at the same time the Russian propaganda Corp. "News Media" is putting out that the demonstrators will run and hide when the first shots are fired--there has been a rumor floating that the police will clear the demonstration with force this evening.

Well the shellings are back to normal--appears to be though no ground attacks probably because they have taken beatings on all of the attacks.
