Researching the National Republican Army: NRA Manifesto

This is a translation of the NRA manifesto for a page I’ll be starting on my research into this obscure group and Ilya Ponomarev (see below*)

A NATIONAL REPUBLICAN ARMY WAS ESTABLISHED IN RUSSIA, WHICH CARRIED OUT AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT ON DUGIN

Aug 21, 2022 Today we woke up in a new time.

Last night, a landmark event took place near Moscow. Russian partisans blew up the car of Novorossiya ideologist, leader of Russian fascists Alexander Dugin.

This attack opens a new page of Russian resistance to Putinism. New – but not the last.

Daria Dugina-Platonova, Alexander’s thirty-year-old daughter, was killed in the attack.

She was his faithful companion, his hands in the ongoing war. Daria called for the destruction of Ukrainians, was a voice calling for violence and murder in the occupied territory. In particular, she justified the terrorist act in Elenovka, when 50 Azov fighters who voluntarily surrendered were blown up in violation of the Geneva Convention.

Retribution took place yesterday. The Lord preserved Dugin himself, but prepared for him a much more terrible punishment.

Today is the time to say who implemented it.

This action, like many other direct-action guerrilla actions carried out on the territory of Russia in recent months, was implemented by the National Republican Army. We have established a connection with its fighters with the help of our resource Rospartizan, which illuminates the growing wave of resistance in Russia.

NRA fighters authorized me [Ilya Ponomarev] to read out their Manifesto today.

“Everyone’s a Little Problematic in Ukraine’s International Legion”

by Lindsey Snell and Cory Popp

“Benjamin Velcro” is former US serviceman and volunteer with the International Legion of Territorial Defense of Ukraine, the official unit of foreign volunteers under the Ukrainian Armed Forces. In early August, Russian media widely shared voice recordings in which Velcro recounted the torture and murder of a Russian prisoner of war.

An exit interview: Benjamin Velcro

I am quite good with languages, one could describe my Russian as a solid B1 (someone said B2 before but that was an ego stroke lol) I would rather understand the language of my enemy than Ukrainian. My convictions against the putin regime were largely solidified when I was part of a task force related to Georgia just prior to their invasion with the US Army. In 2014, maiden inspired me. In 2020, August, I thought the similar conditions could be met in Belarus. I travelled to Belarus. However things did not materialize.

Interesting how this “Benjamin Velcro” seems to be drawn to US-sponsored color revolutions. 👇

How Ukrainians voted for the preservation of the Soviet Union in 1991, but still ended up in an independent state later that year

By Alexander Nepogodin, RT, 8/10/22

Back in early 1991, few thought the disappearance of the Soviet Union from the political map was likely. The results of a huge national referendum held in March indicated as much. Ukraine’s vote exceeded 70%, and public discussion of the joint future for all the socialist republics mainly focused on various forms of a federation.

Unlike many journalists who confuse journalism with propaganda, Lindsey Snell and Cory Popp were recently in Ukraine and reported on the foreign volunteers or as some would like to call them mercenaries.
