Interested in history? Troll – Zelensky – Catherine the Great The name “Odessa” (??????) was formally established by Catherine the Great’s imperial decree on January 27, 1795 (new style calendar). The Neocons do not care about anyone but themselves. I feel sorry for the Ukrainian people. They had a country, they were free, until the Neocons decided to exploit them for their own personal hatred of Russians because the previous generation had been communists. They were just angry that communism collapsed all by itself, and they never got to shoot anyone. They cannot live without hating someone and waging wars endlessly to satisfy their personal vendettas. Odessa was indeed founded by Catherine II, The Great, not by Ukrainians. It was the port located at the exact site of the Ottoman settlement of Khadjibey. Odessa was first mentioned in 1415 when it was known as Khadjibey. They even erected a monument in 1900 to Catherine as the founder of the modern city. The city takes its name from the ancient Greek settlement of Odessos (?d?ss??) located in the region of modern-day Bulgaria (near Varna), not because it was built on the same site, but as part of a trend in the Russian Empire to use classical Greek names for new settlements in the northern Black Sea region. In essence, Olbia’s history is a story of Greek colonial ambition, remarkable prosperity built on frontier trade, deep entanglement with powerful nomadic neighbors, and a long, slow decline under relentless pressure from the steppe, finally succumbing to the Migration Period upheavals of late antiquity. Olbia was founded by settlers from the powerful Ionian Greek city of Miletus (in Asia Minor) around the middle of the 7th century BC (traditionally dated to 647/6 BC or 645 BC). It was an apoikia (colony) established primarily for trade and access to resources. I have heard that I am on Zelensky’s death list. I believe he killed one of my sources in Ukraine, Gonzalo Lira, who was the first to expose that Zelensky was a coke-head. How do you put your pants on backwards and not notice it? This is the guy destroying Ukraine and sacrificing the Ukrainian people for this Neocon agenda. I just have no respect for these people, and the trolls can target everyone I do interviews with, and if they will not have me on again, they are not worth much in this world that is neck-deep in corruption. I was told by one host that he got 10 emails trolling me in 15 minutes, and that was a trolling farm, not actual people. We may have more institutions today than before because what I have been told – “Now I know you are not one of them.” These Neocons project onto Russians and Chinese the very same goals that they aspire to. They care nothing about history. There are NO Ukrainians there in Crimea. About 15% of the population are Tartars from the Mongol invasions. When the people of Crimea voted to join Russia, the Neocons claimed the vote was rigged. Why in God’s name would they want to be part of Ukraine with the ethnic cleansing and hated that the saw by the Neo-Nazis in Odessa in 2014? The people have a right to live in peace. The Minsk Agreement was intended to allow the Donbas to hold a referendum. This is not about human rights and more than Israel’s attack on Iran was about nuclear arms when they killed most of the leadership for this is about regime change. armstrongeconomics.com
