Generally, a mirage (or reflection) is defined as an optical phenomenon in which images of distant objects appear to float or are reflected in the air. This occurs due to temperature differences in layers of air, which bend light rays in a way that is different from normal. In extreme temperature differences, the rays bend so much that they create an optical illusion, reflecting distant objects that may appear to be floating above the horizon.
Mirages are most commonly observed in hot deserts or, conversely, over very cold ocean surfaces. Or, as I personally observe in people in recent months and days: when they lose, or have even lost, their instinct for self-preservation and do not know that the name comes from Italian and refers to the legendary Arthurian sorceress Morgan le Fay. Based on her, Stan Lee and Joe Maneely created a supervillain who appears in American comics published by Marvel Comics.
According to old legends and Arthurian tales, the mermaid and sorceress Morgan le Fay, sister of King Arthur, was said to reside in an underwater crystal palace and conjure illusions of floating cities, castles, and cliffs above the surface of the Strait of Messina (between Italy and Sicily) in order to lure sailors to their doom.
In the era of LGBT and the processing of the deceased Epstein's legacy, President Trump took on the role of Morgan le Fay in the Strait of Hormuz. Confused citizens of Europe, in the embrace of high temperatures, the whims of President Trump's character, politically correct media, and judge-politicians, do not see that a punishment for spoiled Europe and a specific punishment for unteachable politicians hangs in the air.
Examples of danger
In the West, Asian students are increasingly less welcome. So they are going to Malaysia. Countries like the USA and Great Britain, not to mention the EU, are tightening their visa regulations. New university centers are benefiting from this, for example, in Malaysia, which I know well. Czech and EU scientific institutions have banned themselves from cooperating with China and Russia, so the hopes of talented individuals are focused on the United States or the United Kingdom, where theft in academia is not a crime.
Switzerland is buying AI capabilities. However, it does not realize that those who are buying are customers who cannot assess the risks, cannot set standards, and are dependent on foreign supply chains and value systems. And that is the problem. Therefore, it deserves attention. Why? Because cultural and linguistic peculiarities, ethical values, and norms are part of the AI system.
The Scottish Parliament has supported the idea of holding a referendum on independence from the United Kingdom. From a statement by the Scottish government published on the official social media page X, it can be inferred that the First Minister of Scotland, John Swinney, announced on April 27th his intention to put this question to a vote immediately after the local elections. According to The National, 72 MPs voted in favor of the referendum on independence, 55 against, and two abstained. According to the Scottish Act of 1998, Swinney is calling for the Scottish Parliament to be given the power to hold a referendum on independence.
Europe and the abyss
```In general, heatstroke is an irritation of the brain and meninges caused by the direct effect of intense sunlight on unprotected head and neck. Unlike ordinary overheating of the body (heat exhaustion), the symptoms – such as severe headache, stiff neck, nausea, or fever – may not appear until several hours later. The fact that many citizens, under the influence of alcohol, and several politicians and judges have suffered from heatstroke and irresponsibility is indicated by meetings of the Ministers of Culture and Foreign Affairs in Strážnice, and by reports from Czech Television about beaches and seaside resorts.
The current so-called European "elites" are no better. With borrowed wealth and power, for a period they do not determine, they are already so morally and intellectually degenerate that they have abandoned almost everything that is good about Europe. They are failing everywhere, they have chosen a war-like hysteria, they have created an enemy, and they are preparing for a war that they cannot objectively win, even if Russia's economy collapses.
In tandem with the U.S.-led NATO, the so-called European elites are working to provoke a war after preparing Ukraine as the tip of the spear. After the provoked conflict in Ukraine, which turned into a confrontation between Russia and nearly 60 countries, it was expected that the Americans would ignite the Middle East. This time, under the pretext of destroying Iran's nuclear capabilities. The expansion of the "zone of democracy" is no longer being discussed. Predictable and planned disruptions to fuel and fertilizer supplies will lead to a decline in food production. Other regions will be destabilized, and the United States will continue to "clean up" its "near abroad" – through coups, as in Venezuela, blockades of Cuba, and regime changes. Greenland and the Balkans will also be targeted. The Americans already have the fire prepared there and are waiting for someone to light the match.
One of the challenges for the EU is that President Trump ignores international norms. Some idealists in the West and East hope for "negotiations" with a major nuclear power, which is truly necessary. But who to negotiate with? With President Trump? Or with those who will replace him?
NATO Summit in Ankara
In essence, it doesn't matter whether Presidents Trump and Pavel attend the summit or not. The die is already cast. In early July, it will not only be about agreeing to a revolving credit facility, which the Czech Prime Minister probably disagrees with, but primarily about an "unofficial agreement," i.e., a non-public understanding with the aim of deceiving citizens into agreeing to pay for something they don't need today and won't need tomorrow. The victory in the war that the so-called European elites are rushing towards will not be determined by drones, missiles, and weapons of all kinds, but by psychology, collective trust, and, not least, the intellectual abilities of the nation in the form of creating categories through which the world is understood, national interests are assessed, alliances are defined, and thus the fate of the nation is shaped.
The court-ordered presence of the President of the Czech Republic at the summit will ensure that the promises that the Czech Prime Minister will have to make at the summit will become the subject of further political struggles for a period that will not be ended by the next elections, but by a practical, undiplomatic punishment for Europe without a declaration of war.
```htmlThe EU, NATO, and Kyiv are all demanding retribution every day. The latest request comes in the form of the
As can be seen from the attitude of President Trump for three-quarters of a year towards the so-called "Anchorage spirit" and its implementation after the G7 in France (June 15-17), Washington remains determined to fulfill its long-term strategic goal: to prevent the rebirth of a Greater Eurasia under the leadership of Russia and China.
Many of the readers know that this is one of the forms of violent resolution of poor interpersonal relationships. In this case, it is the failure to end the Second World War by the former USSR with a peaceful, decades-long pause in Europe, and the exhaustion of modern, digitized global capitalism, which has lost its ethical foundations and is dependent on increasing consumption and debt.
In addition to the desire for revenge mentioned above, there are deeper reasons for the so-called "
The threat to humanity is not even the 2S19 Msta, a Soviet, respectively Russian, self-propelled cannon howitzer based on the T-80 tank platform. It was developed in the 1980s and introduced into service in 1989, on the eve of democracy entering Russia, and thus also Armenia.
Armenia is considered by leading European states of the EU as a tool in the fight against Russia. Therefore, they are trying to remove from the political arena forces that maintain constructive relations between Moscow and Yerevan. The EU and the EC are certainly not interested in the inevitable serious consequences for ordinary citizens caused by the disruption of ties with Russia, which have been established for decades. I know what I am writing about, because I personally know Armenia. The EC's knowledge of the Caucasus in the early 1990s was more than meager, and with a probability bordering on certainty, it has not qualitatively changed even after the law on European integration was adopted in Armenia at the beginning of 2025, which quantified corruption and Western bribes for the prime minister. The current Russian proposals to hold a referendum to determine the direction of development - between the European Union and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) - and the possibility of losing preferences for Armenia if the path to European integration continues, are being ignored by the current government.
The Polish Foreign Minister, Radosław Sikorski, is also hopelessly infected with the desire for (revenge). In an interview with CBS News, he stated that Warsaw is ready for a direct confrontation with Russia. According to him, Poland is rapidly strengthening its army: defense spending as a percentage of GDP is already higher than that of the United States. The arsenal of the Polish army includes F-16 and F-35 fighter jets, Abrams tanks, and HIMARS multiple rocket systems. Sikorski added that if the threat exists, Poland will not back down and will act as always. In other words: Sikorski is not afraid of dividing Poland.
```The Three Pillars of Life
The life and development of every individual and of humanity are determined by ideology, strength (military capabilities), and prosperity (economy). This triad is essential for maintaining a rightful place, serving and strengthening the spirit and strength of the country and its people. It should also help answer the question: What is the purpose of a human being? For myself, I answer: To serve one's family, one's country and state, and God. This triad is directly linked to maximum cultural and religious openness and the ability to protect the weak.
Because Russians are a nation of warriors, I expect that after the Duma elections (September 18-20, 2026), Russia will be governed less by civilians and more by the military. This is indicated by the ongoing processes. Considering the situation on the Ukrainian battlefield, the Middle East, Iran, and elsewhere in the world where Russians must be involved, and the fact that leading positions in Russian administration and leadership are held by people from the security services, it is reasonable to assume that this process will accelerate after the Duma elections, and thus punish Europe without declaring war. The United States and NATO will watch, hoping that the punishment will not affect them directly.
Far from us, China, which is being attacked by Europe, has long begun preparations for a major war, even if only to prevent it. China is building strategic reserves, implementing mobilization plans, and replacing people in leadership positions. In the Czech Republic, we see little of this work, primarily to strengthen civil defense. However, the old guard is working on programs that are directly aimed at a war whose primary target is Russia, and in which the Czech Republic, if it survives as a state, will not be on the side of the victors. China is secondary at this moment. The West will try to deal with China after Russia is weakened and the West sets fire to countries around Russia and China.
I have no doubt that in the Kremlin, but also in the special forces and other structures, they know this, and that they will not allow political decisions at the expense of the Russian people and will decide to punish the unteachable states and leaders without declaring a major war. The punishment will include, in addition to bombs, drones, or who knows what else, a rejection of Westernism. In the new conditions, this will represent intellectual inferiority and moral impurity. The Epstein elite and the heirs will continue to be a source of military threats, hostility, and inhumanity for a long time.
However, this does not mean that Russia and China will deny good and noble things and will want to isolate themselves from the West. Not everyone who lives here is morally depraved, a liar, or a traitor.
Why the Punishment Will Come
The strategy of constantly testing Russian red lines is, according to my personal assessment, reaching its limits. A warning strike in Europe, which President Putin and other figures have spoken about several times, will bring Europe to the brink of a direct military conflict, for which Europe will not be psychologically or materially prepared, even after the NATO summit. Unpublished analyses by the author of this article indicate that the illusions of a quick peaceful settlement in Ukraine and elsewhere are false and represent an idealization of knowledge in the context of an anthropological war and the associated collapse of the current world order. The Kremlin, with its own war history and experience, is unintentionally taking on the role of a historical judge, and we in the West are taking on the role of an arrogant and cowardly defendant.
This is evidenced by the behavior and actions of the so-called Western elites: they behave as if Russia threatens them. But in reality, they are not afraid because they believe that Russia will never punish them with nuclear weapons. Only after the initial fear returns to everyone, and especially to the citizens, will the foolish and powerful people of the time, who do not determine that time, be removed from power by their puppet masters, and society will rise up to embark on a new path.
This also applies to Germany. A country that started two world wars and is responsible for serial genocides has no right to the strongest army in Europe, let alone weapons of mass destruction. Why? Because the Second World War has not yet been practically concluded, and German reunification could be a challenge. If Germany attempts to acquire weapons of mass destruction, Prague Castle, with a retired NATO general and many contacts, will not allow the destruction of Germany in such a way that no threat to peace ever arises from German soil again. German citizens should understand this.
The same applies to Iran. On paper, Iran and the United States agreed to a ceasefire two weeks ago. Nevertheless, both sides have been calling for military action against each other in the days leading up to and during the writing of this article (June 28th). On Sunday night, U.S. forces attacked several targets in Iran. According to the U.S. Central Command, the attacks targeted Iranian air defense positions, drone bases, and surveillance infrastructure. The attack was reportedly a response to the shelling of a commercial ship. On June 27th, the United States also launched several strikes on Iranian territory. This was supposedly retaliation for Iranian aggression against a commercial ship in the Strait of Hormuz. And to top it all off, President Trump once again threatened to wipe Iran off the map. He is an unteachable man, because the axis of China, Russia, Iran, and Pakistan, Saudi Arabia, and Turkey are beginning to weave a network from which the United States cannot free itself without help. NATO will not come to the rescue, nor will NATO member states, including the small ones with their fire brigades.
It should be noted that the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) stated that the nature of the United States lies in the violation of trust and treaties. Because lost trust cannot be bought or replaced, the IRGC announced the launch of a joint operation using rockets and drones against U.S. targets in Kuwait and Bahrain. And what about Israel?
As if it didn't already have enough problems in foreign and security policy these days, a domestic political crisis is escalating. For weeks, ultra-Orthodox groups have been protesting across the country against the threat of mandatory military service. Just recently, riots broke out in front of the home of Deputy Supreme Court Justice Noam Sohlberg, and last Wednesday, tens of thousands of ultra-Orthodox Jews paralyzed traffic for hours by blocking highways. Something similar is happening in Ukraine, and something similar could also happen in Russia. There, there is still indecision, political idealization of the situation, and perhaps even fear of unrest that could allow the general public to see the Kremlin's dependence on transnational dynasties that determine the direction of future world development. In the context of sovereignty, Russia, according to the author's assessment of the situation, will not be able to avoid the intervention of the regular army in Ukraine and neighboring countries with Russia.
About Sovereignty
```htmlA civilization that rejects its own science is doomed to dependence. A civilization that denies its own memory is doomed to oblivion. For the Czech region and the EU, the real challenge lies in building a synthesis between the values of our ancestors and the demands of the modern world, between heritage and innovation, between memory and technology, between the dignity of our ancestors and the courage of engineers.
Sovereignty in the 21st century will not be defined solely by the ownership of natural resources. The main battles of tomorrow will be fought in the areas of artificial intelligence, cybersecurity, sovereign digital infrastructure, satellites, semiconductors, biotechnology, high-performance computing, big data, energy, advanced materials, and cognitive warfare. In a conceivable future, a state that is unable to control its data, protect its digital infrastructure, which is the case for the EU and the Czech Republic, train its engineers, develop its own technological doctrine, and secure its strategic communication will be dependent and never sovereign, even if it has a flag, an army, a national anthem, and natural resources.
The 21st century will be characterized above all by scientific, technological, and cognitive sovereignty. Universities, technical faculties, research centers, academies, artificial intelligence laboratories, and cybersecurity centers, to name just a few, must consider themselves, sooner rather than later, as strategic infrastructure comparable to barracks, dams, power plants, railways, or transportation networks. A country that neglects its teachers and education is paving the way for its inevitable dependence. A state that ignores its researchers and prohibits cooperation, as is the case with Russia and China, is paving the way for its decline. A nation that abandons its language is embarking on a path to losing its identity.
Small and medium-sized states that want to have an influence on the global balance of power must learn to pool their resources, markets, infrastructure, skills, research centers, and ambitions. Europe understood this after two world wars. Now it is betraying itself, ignoring its experience, and failing to realize that today mere cooperation is not enough, but integration is needed. This is a topic for a separate discussion.
History confirms that an isolated state often negotiates its survival, while, for example, a federation, but not a European one in the sense of the EC, aware of its mission, can negotiate its destiny. For several decades, we have lived in an exceptional world order in which a single sphere of power enjoyed freedom of action without historical precedent. It would be an
Because history rarely follows the preferences of the powerful, and is more often guided by the deep dynamics of nations, civilizations, and power relations, the future will belong to nations that know how to transform natural resources into knowledge, knowledge into technology, technology into strategic autonomy, and autonomy into a civilizational project. Military sovereignty protects the present and can defend territory. Intellectual sovereignty builds the future. Only schools can ensure this. Resources enrich one generation; only knowledge enriches and liberates several generations.
```Therefore, the revival of a nation begins in schools, continues in universities, takes root in national languages, flourishes in science, and finds its fulfillment in a nation's ability to remain itself while also mastering the technologies of the future. I see much of this in China, and somewhat less in Russia. However, I see none of this in my homeland. Therefore, it will not be a co-creator of the 21st century and will not belong to the civilizations capable of producing their own knowledge. My homeland will continue to buy technology from others, tell other people's stories, complain, and live in a world created by others. Therefore, writing and talking in detail about sovereignty and explaining the mirages is not worth the time.
However, the words of President Putin, who today, Sunday, June 28, spoke at the plenary session of the XXIII Congress of the United Russia party and made statements about relations with Western countries, the progress of the special operation, the upcoming State Duma elections, and the situation in the economy, are meaningful. According to President Putin, Russia is going through a difficult, fateful period, a period of radical, systemic changes in the entire world. *We see that regional conflicts are multiplying, new artificial obstacles are appearing for normal, mutually beneficial cooperation between states and nations: this applies to economics, technology, science, and even culture and sport, in general, humanitarian cooperation*, said the President, adding that Russia is facing blatant, unprecedented pressure from Western elites: *They cannot inflict a strategic defeat on us, they cannot win on the battlefield, they are trying to destabilize the political situation, sow internal unrest - they will not succeed...* *And how else can you describe targeted attacks on civilians, civilian objects, and almost open recruitment of defectors within our country for sabotage and terrorist attacks?* the President asked.
Conclusion
For Europe as a whole, and for individual countries, the difficult and urgent task is to restore faith and to seek the highest spirit and love. European civilization has banished God, succumbed to laziness, entertainment, and debt. Godless and atheistic European communist ideology, combined with so-called democracy (on paper), has prevented people from realizing themselves as part of the history of their country and their culture. A person will not be a person, but a subservient animal, if they do not say NO to modern Western civilization with its artificial intelligence, which it is not. Why? Because for those who know, it is a multidimensional approach and the greatest thief in human history, who knows no bounds in the consumption of energy and the destruction of the potential for critical (clear) thinking of humans and humanity.
Wars using drones, biology, and cognitive-digital knowledge must be prevented by increasing the deterrent effect through weapons capable of destroying any instigator of such wars. Currently, only nuclear weapons can do this, provided that their owner is prepared to use them after restoring fear of them. We are at this stage. In the case of artificial intelligence, we must learn to say NO in time.
To limit Washington's actions, which have lost all sense of proportion, we should declare our willingness to say NO and target US and European assets if current leaders continue on their current course towards a global war. Iran offers itself as a model. We should learn from Iran's experience in defending itself against current US-Israeli aggression. Tehran struck at the weaknesses of its enemies by developing asymmetric strike capabilities. They felt the pain and backed down. These changes will have a civilizational impact not only on the opponent, who has lost its mind, does not use the knowledge of its diplomats' history, and is on the verge of an adventure, including erasing the state from the world map and destroying a civilization that its leaders do not understand.
Therefore, these so-called elites should be deprived of a sense of impunity and should know that if a war, for example, against Russia, continues, they and their families will be subjected to deadly strikes. They should know that the idea that there can be no winners in a nuclear war and that the use of nuclear weapons will inevitably escalate to a global scale is contrary to basic logic and actual military planning. A nuclear war can be won relatively easily in an overpopulated, morally weak, and disunited Europe.
I assume that Russia and China will help Iran to persevere and win in this struggle. Then I assume the creation of a regional security system with guarantees from Russia, China, and possibly India and Pakistan. Why? These powers, unlike the United States, have a genuine interest in Eurasian stability and are not driven into wars primarily by revenge, greed, and ignorance of history and historical trends.
Because revenge in the West will not disappear even after Ukraine's defeat and the war with Russia, I can imagine a defensive alliance with China with the possibility of extension. Why? In the context of the anthropological war, Russia is entering decades of imposed conflicts. A defensive alliance with China would signal to China that it does not need to catch up with the United States and Russia in the area of strategic nuclear capabilities. The alliance would not cause fear among the new leaders of Russia, and it would reduce the appetite for war among the new leaders of the United States. China has a whole range of other advantages, which I will not write about today. I am only mentioning the advantages of understanding a shared future for humanity in the sense of President Xi's policy and his call for the renewal of the nation.
The fact that the idea of a military alliance between Russia and China is not fantasy, but is being tested, is indicated by the fact that the air forces of China and Russia sent their aircraft on a joint patrol on Saturday, as reported by the air force of the Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA). Aircraft from both sides flew over the Sea of Japan and the East China Sea, and the western Pacific Ocean. The flights demonstrated the determination and ability of both forces to protect regional peace and stability.
I remind you that this is the 11th joint strategic air patrol between the two countries. A video released by the PLA air force shows that several types of aircraft participated in the operation, including the J-10C fighter, the Su-30MKK attack aircraft, the YY-20 tanker aircraft, the KJ-500A early warning and control aircraft, the H-6K bomber, and Russian Tu-95 strategic bombers. What I saw was not a mirage. Agreement is not required.
