As Far as My Feet Will Carry Me: The Extraordinary True Story of One Man's Escape from a Siberian Labour Camp and His 3-Year Trek to Freedom by Josef Martin Bauer

This is as impressive as a story could get, seeing as it is true, the title makes it clear, albeit we live in an age when you see the Pope wearing a fancy Balenciaga outfit, and then you learn that it was in fcat generated by Artificial Intelligence beanos, so the claim could have been just a Trumpian one, but it is genuine

 

After World War II, we find Clemens Forell in a Siberian Gulag, enduring the atrocities that the Soviets could inflict on people; however, the Russians that follow the Putin line (and they seem to be alas a majority, notwithstnding the unreliable nature of polls, data coming out of the new would be czarist empire ) have the same techniques and gruesome penchant for torture and extrajudicila killings.

They have used what was called a ‚nuclear mini bomb’ to assasinate an opponent of the short czar, wsuffering from the Napoleonic Syndrome-by the way, i have just read in A Short History of Islam by fabulous Karen Armstrong http://realini.blogspot.com/2023/09/fields-of-blood-and-religion-by-karen.html about the origin of the name, which comes from fellows that were supposed to use hashish, but it looks like a myth

 

British citizen Alexander Litvinenko had been a KGB agent and had tried to tell Putin that there is corruption in the agency and they kill people, as a result of this, the honest man was ejected and then, once he found refuge in London, he was killed using...Polonium, a highly radiocative lement, extremely expensive, which left traces throughout Britain, the plane used, and in Germany, where the executioners transfered

Mexcian cartel memebrs, others in the world are involved in gruesome exections, torture, but the Soviet and now Putin state appear to be singularly abhorent as ‚official,elected’ organs of the ‚people’ that commit such crimes against humanity, with impunity, regularly and with not just equanimity, but falunting it

 

The Plutonium execution in London was followed by the use of Novichok in Salsbury, against another former agent, and then more recently, placed in the underwear of Alexey Navalny, leader of the opposition, now interned in similar conditions to the ones imposed on Clemens Forell, becasue these monsters have no humanity, limit, and they only care for themselves, just as it is made clear by what we can see

Last night, they have aired an episode from a new docuseries, Tycoons, looking in this segment at the oligarchs of Russia, and what is most likely the richest ruffian on the planet, think if you can guess it...it is Innocent the First, czar Vladymir, who is reported to have gathered the rich of the new CCCP and told them what to do

 

Chili Palmer is the hero aka anti-hero of Get Shorty http://realini.blogspot.com/2020/04/get-shorty-by-elmore-leonard-aka.html by Elmore Leonard, adapted for the big screen, with dazzling John Travolta in the leading role, and just like Chili Palmer, Vladymir is the one ‚telling you the way it is’, for the oligarchs it is fifty percent of your fortune, or else it is the cage (litearlly, you must have seen those horrfying images, whenever they cage opposition figures, journalists, foreigners they want to exchange or just eliminate)

Mikhail Khodorkovsky used to be the richest Russian, made the mistake of talking against Putin, funded some opposition movements and ergo, he ended up in the infamous cage, then prison for ten years, and the message after that was for all to surrender half their wealth, or it is jail...Navalny and his team have investigated and found a palace that Putin has, ‚which puts Versailles to shame’, as brilliant Fiona Hill says

 

The American Congress has passed - in the good old days, when they could agree on anything, now you have the Republican lunatics that want to shut down the goverment, which will happen in a matter in a matter of days...actually, if you are still hear and read this, for some pecualiar reason, it would have been closed, becasue i have a pipeline of some seventeen notes to publish, and they each have to wait their turn, so this could be online by the middle of October, or the tenth- the Magnitsky Act.

It is called this becasue an honest man of that name died at the hands of the ghastly Russian Mafia State, when he told the authroities about corruption and illegal activities, he was the one taken in, tortured and killed, within the walls of their official premises, and then he was taken to court, buit as evidence of how absurd, sadistic, disturbed, montrous these creatures are, they would not stop the case.

 

In other words, if you stand agaisnt Putin and His Mob, you are in for the closest Hell teratement that you can get on earth, it is either Polonium, Novichok or you pursue you after the grave, perhaps a couple of the above, and this is not the age of burning witches (however much another Man of the Apocalypse, Trump, might whine about the ‚withc hunt’) the middle ages, or the ra of the cave men...or wait a minute, maybe it is

You know the armageddon of The Planet of The Apes http://realini.blogspot.com/2018/01/planet-of-apes-based-on-novel-by-pierre.html wherein at the end, Charlton Heston (once a liberal, then perplexingly head of the...NRA) is aghst at the discovery of the Statue of Liberty on this Planet of the Apes, where the apes are the humans that have self-destructed...as for the German POW, he has a hell of a time until, he may (let us not give spoliers here, right at the end of the note) reach some friendlier shore that the USSR...

 

 

Now for a question, and invitation – maybe you have a good idea on how we could make more than a million dollars with this http://realini.blogspot.com/2022/02/unique-in-world.html?q=unique+in+the+world   – as it is, this is a unique technique, which we could promote, sell, open the Oscars show with or something and then make lots of money together, if you have the how, I have the product, I just do not know how to get the befits from it, other than the exercise per se

 

As for my role in the Revolution that killed Ceausescu, a smaller Mao, there it is http://realini.blogspot.com/2022/03/realini-in-newsweek-participant-in.html 

 

From To The Heritage:

‘Fiction is infinitely preferable to real life. As long as you avoid the books of Kafka or Beckett, the everlasting plot of fiction has fewer futile experiences than the careless plot of reality. Fiction's people are fuller, deeper, cleverer, more moving than those in real life…Its actions are more intricate, illuminating, noble, profound…There are many more dramas, climaxes, romantic fulfillment, twists, turns, gratified resolutions…Unlike reality, all of this you can experience without leaving the house or even getting out of bed…What's more, books are a form of intelligent human greatness, as stories are a higher order of sense…As random life is to destiny, so stories are to great authors, who provided us with some of the highest pleasures and the most wonderful mystifications we can find…Few stories are greater than Anna Karenina, that wise epic by an often foolish author…’

‚parturiunt montes, nascetur ridiculus mus’

“the Meaning of Life...Well, it's nothing very special. Try and be nice to people, avoid eating fat, read a good book every now and then, get some walking in, and try and live together in peace and harmony with people of all creeds and nations.”
