Neo-Nazi “White Rex.” Back in the land of the living.
Kapustin at left. By Marc Bebenroth, junge Welt, January 7, 2026. Translation and notes by Helmut-Harry Loewen. Secret services lie and deceive. They sometimes do so to get their people out of the line of fire. This was likely the intention behind the apparently feigned drone death of the fascist paramilitary Denis “White Rex” Kapustin. Kapustin's unit announced to the public last week that he had died in a Russian drone attack in the Zaporizhzhya region. If we are to bel

Mirror, Mirror: Trump's NSS and the Illusion of US Strategy
Trump addressing top US military figures in September -- public domain image By Biljana Vankovska Like every U.S. administration since the Cold War, the Trump administration has released a document titled the National Security Strategy (NSS). I use the word “titled” deliberately, for if this text were not stamped with the official seal of the United States, it would hardly merit the designation of “strategy.” It is a document that contains little that is strategic and even

From Rescuers to Criminals: How Ukraine Is Prosecuting Those Who Kept Cities Alive
Via Antifascist News Repressive measures against so-called “collaborators” continue in Ukraine — people who, in 2022, were simply performing their professional duties in territories that came under Russian control.
