#Russia Declares Full Control Over #Lugansk
End of 11-Year Struggle

On June 30, 2025, Russia declared complete control over the Lugansk Peopleโ€™s Republic, finalizing the reunification of the region with the Russian Federation. The announcement by #LPR head Leonid Pasechnik closes an eleven-year chapter marked by uprising, and armed conflict.

From 2014โ€™s Maidan nazi coup, Lugansk has been at the heart of the conflict.
That ends here.

What was the role of Americans on the ethnic cleansing of #Palestinians before 7th of October?

"Whatโ€™s a guy from Virginia doing building a fence outside a Palestinian familyโ€™s house?

In exclusive footage obtained by AJ+, a group of Americans were filmed installing wiring and a fence around the land just outside the Salem family home in occupied East Jerusalem.

The incident happened just days after the family was served an eviction notice by settlers who are linked to U.S. charities.

In this report, we explore how the effort to displace the Salems has been decades in the making."

Make no mistake about it, the American Revolution was a war of independence from the International Jewish Banksters who dominated the Crown, even if the Founding Fathers were completely unaware of that fact.

We're given a history wherein the war hinges on a tax on tea and the resultant Boston Tea Party, but what is never mentioned is that the British Empire only declared war on the colonies after . . . stormfront.org/forum/blogs/u15โ€ฆ

Here I am the wet blanket.

July 4th was NOT the founding of the United States.

July 4th was the secession of the States of America from Great Britain.

It was NOT about taxes. It was about local control and local authority to impose taxes.

It ushered in a War. The war ended with thirteen individual peace treaties with the 13 States.

We were NOT a united body at that time any more than we are today.

Celebrate the ability to seceede from those organizations that abuse you.

Turns out bunker busters work better than $150 billion cash on pallets.
The total cost of the recent U.S. bombing campaign targeting Iranโ€™s nuclear sites is estimated to be around $500 million, reflecting a complex and costly military operation. This figure includes the deployment of seven B-2 stealth bombers, each valued at approximately $2.1 billion, which delivered at least 14 Massive Ordnance Penetrator (MOP) bunker-buster bombs costing $15-20 million apiece. Additionally, about 30 Tomahawk missiles, each costing around $2 million, were launched. The operational costsโ€”including fuel, maintenance, aerial refueling, support aircraft such as F-22s, F-35s, AWACS, electronic warfare platforms, and personnelโ€”added tens of millions more, with total mission expenses likely exceeding half a billion dollars. Over 125 aircraft participated in the mission, underscoring the extensive logistical and financial investment involved[1][2][3][5][6][8].

Beyond the direct military expenditures, the strikes have also contributed to broader economic impacts, including increased volatility in global oil prices and inflation concerns due to fears of disruption in Iranian oil exports and potential retaliatory actions. These indirect costs, while harder to quantify, amplify the overall financial and geopolitical consequences of the bombing campaign[2][5][7].

In sum, the U.S. airstrikes on Iranโ€™s nuclear facilities represent a significant financial outlay in both direct military spending and wider economic ramifications, with the immediate operational costs alone estimated at around $500 million.

To understand **how many water systems and power plants could have been built for \$500 million**, we can estimate based on average construction costs of these infrastructures. Below is a rough breakdown using typical U.S. figures (note: actual costs vary significantly by location, scale, and technology):

---

### ๐Ÿ’ง **Water Systems**

**Average cost to build a new municipal water system** (small to mid-sized community):

* **\$5 million to \$15 million**
(Includes treatment facilities, distribution pipelines, pumps, etc.)

#### ๐Ÿ”น Conservative estimate:

* **\$10 million per water system**
โžค **\$500 million รท \$10 million = 50 water systems**

---

### โšก **Power Plants**

There are various types of power plants. Here are a few types with rough average costs:

#### ๐ŸŸข **Small Solar Power Plant (\~10 MW):**

* **\~\$15 million**
โžค **\$500 million รท \$15 million = \~33 solar plants**
(Can power \~2,000 homes each)

#### ๐Ÿ”ต **Small Natural Gas Plant (\~100 MW):**

* **\~\$100 million**
โžค **\$500 million รท \$100 million = 5 plants**
(Can power \~75,000โ€“100,000 homes each)

#### ๐ŸŸ  **Small Modular Nuclear Reactor (SMR):**

* **\~\$300 million to \$500 million**
โžค **Could build 1 to 2 SMRs**

---

### Combined Estimate

| Type | Average Cost | How Many for \$500M |
| ----------------------------- | ------------ | ------------------- |
| Small municipal water system | \$10M | 50 |
| Solar power plant (10 MW) | \$15M | 33 |
| Natural gas plant (100 MW) | \$100M | 5 |
| Small modular nuclear reactor | \$400M | 1โ€“2 |

---

### ๐Ÿงพ Summary

For the **same \$500 million**, instead of being spent elsewhere (e.g., military aid, overseas projects), **the U.S. could build:**

* **50 municipal water systems**, or
* **33 small solar power plants**, or
* **5 small natural gas plants**, or
* **1โ€“2 small modular nuclear reactors**

This kind of investment could power hundreds of thousands of homes or deliver clean water to entire regions in need.

Here's a thought for cis men who, when women tell you to stop performing toxic masculinity because it is harming you, say "but do you have any idea what that would cost me socially? Men and women both constantly demand that I perform their idea of masculinity."

Women who have refused to perform the requirements of femininity absolutely know what it can cost, and we are telling you, it is better to accept that price than continuing living in a system that destroys you.

If we refuse to have babies, people lose their minds. If we refuse to be nice and sweet, people scold us. If we refuse to dress in ways that are socially acceptable for feminine women (whether by being too masculine or too "provocative") that opens us up to assault & transphobic violence (funny how those bathroom bills make it dangerous for any woman to go out in public without looking sufficiently feminine).

We know.

So don't tell me that you can't refuse to perform masculinity.

Sadly this is how government is designed. It is impossible to get any work done without stepping anyone on the toes.

Thus U will either do as little as possible and stay for a total of 8 or 10 years in power, depending on nation.

Or U will upset people and be replaced at the next election and all the work U started will be cancelled.

This is how Democracy was always supposed to function.

That a population of morons would be able to elect by voting a genius leader is a joke.

in reply to EvolLove

@EvolLove

However, the answer is clear.

We live in a republic, not a democracy.

We have a federal constitution that is limited. All not listed in the constitution is the purview of the States.

Since 90% of the federal budget is unconstitutional, it should be scrapped. There would be no ability to 'promise' anything since it is unconstitutional.

Real leadership means the ability to follow the constitution

in reply to Arthur_500

I wasn't addressing USA specifically but the state of the western world.

I don't think that real leadership can be reduced to following the constitution.

Since That has yet to manifest. That might be a nice idea but it ain't happening.

Instead U have constant elections and propaganda. Perhaps U are a republic in name only and in every other aspect it's just Jewry?

That said, the electoral voting system, at least U have that instead of the popular vote. Rejoice :pepe_dream:

We Fled Kakuma to Escape Violence , Now Weโ€™re Being Forced Out Again with Nowhere to Go


cross-posted from: lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/2839030โ€ฆ

Hi friends,
My name is Cyara, and Iโ€™m a transgender refugee living in Gorom camp, South Sudan, along with other queer community members. We came here after fleeing severe persecution and violence in Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya where many of us were harassed, attacked, and denied safety.

We thought we would be safer in South Sudan, but here too we face discrimination, abuse, and daily threats. Then, on June 20th, the government gave us an eviction deadline: leave the camp or face prison. They gave us no plan, no support, just a deadline. That day came and passed. We are still stuck, scared, and exposed.

I know posts like this can feel overwhelming but please believe me when I say: this isnโ€™t easy to write. Iโ€™m not trying to guilt anyone. Iโ€™m just desperate to get help for me and my sisters.

We are trying to raise $1500 USD to rent a shelter in Juba for 3 months, to house 8 of us while we try to find longer-term safety. Weโ€™ve raised $121 so far Iโ€™m grateful beyond words for that, but weโ€™re still far from safety.

Please โ€” if you canโ€™t donate, just boost this post. Share it. Let people know we exist. That alone could save a life. Also please mods, my cause was really verified by Qaz. Please donโ€™t take it down. I can still verify my situation

That was the big problem on sites like Facebook, Twitter, and Reddit. They advertise themselves as a public square. Then they would censor speech in various ways unknown to the speaker. A lot of people in this thread don't understand that. In case you are not familiar, sounds like you are, Martin v. City of Struthers (1943). I know these sites aren't just U.S. citizens, so a lot of the comments come from foreigners who only familiar with their limited freedoms their government allows them.

This is the kind of content the .ml admins cultivate through their bans and censorship. They'll frequently remove articles from credible good sources that directly go against their narratives, while allowing misinformation and conspiracy websites to include RT, Sputnik and (as shown) random substack blogs as long as they tow the narratives that align with them.

E.g. Ukraine is a Nazi regime and Russia is just "liberating" the Ukrainian people
