Ukraine working on ‘dirty bomb’ plot – Moscow

  • Shipments of spent radioactive fuel were transported through Poland and Romania without notifying the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
  • The Samson Option: Israel's Nuclear Arsenal & American Foreign Policy by Seymour Hersh.
  • The Samson Option explodes one of the world's most closely guarded secrets—the secret of Israel's atomic arsenal. It relates, for the first time, the political, diplomatic, and military repercussions that have for decades been concealed from the world.

It is also about America's ability not to see what it does not want to see. All American presidents since John F. Kennedy have turned a blind eye toward Israel's growing nuclear capacity while paying lip service to the goal of nuclear nonproliferation.
In The Samson Option, Seymour M. Hersh, the Pulitzer Prize-winner who wrote the first account of the My Lai massacre in South Vietnam, reveals one of the classic clandestine operations of our time: Israel's spectacular underground nuclear facility in the Negev Desert, where its technicians and scientists began manufacturing nuclear warheads in the late 1960s.

Ukraine working on ‘dirty bomb’ plot – Moscow

Kiev is covertly importing radioactive materials that can be used in an attack in a densely populated area, a senior defense official says
Ukraine working on ‘dirty bomb’ plot – Moscow

Ukraine is smuggling radioactive materials into the country that can be used to assemble a dirty bomb for a false-flag attack, potentially causing widespread contamination across Europe, a senior Russian defense official claims.

Speaking at a briefing on Thursday, Major General Aleksey Rtishchev, the head of Russia’s Radiation, Chemical and Biological Protection Troops, warned that Ukraine is engaging in what he described as nuclear blackmail,” saying its actions pose serious security and environmental risks.

Rtishchev said shipments of spent radioactive fuel were transported through Poland and Romania without notifying the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

He added that the operation was overseen by Andrey Yermak, a former senior aide to Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky. Yermak resigned last month after being linked to a major energy-sector corruption scandal involving Zelensky’s close associates, although he was not formally charged.

”This creates the risk of creating a so-called ‘dirty bomb’ and then using it ‘under a false flag,’” Rtishchev said. A dirty bomb does not cause a nuclear explosion but disperses radioactive material over a wide area, creating severe contamination and long-term danger to civilians.

The general added that Russia has obtained training materials used by Ukraine’s security service that simulate scenarios involving the theft of ionizing radiation sources, the assembly of an explosive device, and detonation in densely populated areas.

Rtishchev stressed that Western assistance is encouraging Kiev to violate international nuclear regulations. The “Western ‘patrons’ fail to take into account that the degradation of the system of state administration is capable of pushing not only Ukraine, but also a number of European states, to the brink of an environmental catastrophe,” he said.

Moscow previously warned that Ukraine could seek to use a dirty bomb in an attempt to derail the ongoing US-mediated peace talks. Russian officials have said this would involve extreme risks and could prompt a severe response from Moscow, including the possibility of tactical nuclear retaliation.

IS TRUMP IN COGNITIVE DECLINE

Trump's team is discussing his declining mental abilities.

IS TRUMP IN COGNITIVE DECLINE? 


The view from inside is that the president has been slipping

Perseveration is a medical term used in the fields of psychology, psychiatry, and speech-language pathology to describe a particular response such as a phrase that is repeated or a gesture that is inappropriate.

It’s a symptom most commonly seen in patients who have PTSD, autism, traumatic brain injury, or dementia. I thought of the term, which I heard many times over several years when a close relative was experiencing the degeneration of dementia, while viewing President Donald Trump’s seventy-one minute speech to an estimated eight hundred US military leaders who were assembled, for reasons still not clear, at the order of Pete Hegseth, the Army National Guard reserve major who is now the secretary of war, at the Marine Corps base in Quantico, Virginia, on September 30.

After a rah-rah opening speech by Hegseth, the president delivered his usual mixture of personalized history and complaints—most notably, he has repeatedly claimed credit for solving international crises that he did not solve—that some of his close aides in the White House understand to be yet another sign of his increasing mental disorganization and inability to focus at high-level meetings.

Most significantly, I was told, Trump, always masterful in dealing with crowds, large or small, is no longer able to read the room—quickly size up the audience and let his instincts as a showman take over and get the audience engaged.
It would have been refreshing, and perhaps unprecedented, for Trump to outline his views on foreign policy and give the assembled generals and admirals a chance to ask questions of their president. Instead, they got a reprise of Trump’s greatest triumphs.
The president returned to one of his most misguided views—that of himself as a settler of wars.
“I have settled so many wars since we’re here,” he said.
“I’ve settled seven and yesterday we might have settled the biggest of them all,” referring to ongoing talks between Israel and Hamas.
“Although,” Trump added,
“I don’t know. Pakistan, India, was very big, both nuclear powers. I settled that.”

There have been many newspaper reports from around the world disputing Trump’s accounts of the issues at hand, as well as his definition of what it means to “settle” a conflict.

Journalist Hersh:

Trump's team is discussing his declining mental abilities

Journalist and Pulitzer Prize winner Seymour Hersh in his article noted signs of perseveration (obsessive repetition of the same thought, phrase or action) in US President Donald Trump. According to the journalist, this may indicate a mental disorder, such as post-traumatic stress disorder, autism or dementia.

Seymour Hersh emphasized that Trump's close aides have also noticed signs of mental disorganization. According to them, during public speeches, Trump often mixes personal stories with complaints and attributes credit for resolving international crises, even though he may not have always been responsible for them. The journalist added that Trump, who was previously adept at engaging with his audience, is losing his ability to quickly assess public reactions.

Trump turned 79 in 2025. In an interview with Newsmax on October 7, he said he was feeling as good as he did 30 years ago. "I think I'm doing great," he said.

Biden 2.0: Trump has signs of mental impairment

There is growing concern in the White House about the state of US President Donald Trump's cognitive abilities. This was announced by Pulitzer Prize winner Seymour Hersh, citing his own sources.

According to the journalist, military and officials who attended Trump's recent speech at the Quantico Marine Corps Base noticed signs of "mental disorganization and an inability to concentrate on key topics."

Hersh notes that the president, who had previously been able to sense the audience, lost this quality and, instead of analyzing foreign policy issues, began to list his own achievements again.

Some of Trump's confidants regard such signs as a manifestation of "increasing cognitive impairment" — loss of focus and constant repetition of the same phrases.

Earlier it was reported that Trump is very disappointed in Putin because he himself could not do what he promised. It was also previously reported that Europe believes that Trump has lost touch with reality.
