UK Journo Arrested for ‘Malinformation’ After Exposing Trudeau Applauding Nazi

"A British independent journalist has been arrested after he condemned the Canadian parliament’s lauding of a Ukrainian Nazi Waffen-SS member.
Warren Thornton was hosting an edition of his webcast The Real Truth on the evening of Sunday September 24 when police officers knocked at his door.

The video blogger has been critical on social media of NATO’s support to Ukraine in its conflict with Russia. He had also helped expose the dark past of 98-year-old Ontario resident Yaroslav Hunka, who was given a standing ovation in the Canadian House of Commons last week during a speech by Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky at the invitation of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau.
Guest Fiona Ryan recounted how Thornton “vanished” 20 minutes before the show ended, as she was talking with fellow guest Johnee, host of the Café Revolution YouTube channel based in Donetsk on the front line of the conflict with Ukraine.
When she sent a WhatsApp message to Thornton after the webcast ended to ask what happened, he texted back the single word “police”.
Thornton confirmed that officers from the regional Cyber Crime Unit “invited” him to be “interviewed”. When he declined, they put him under arrest and drove him to a police station in Bristol, many miles from his home.
There they attempted to serve him with a formal caution for ‘malinformation’ in relation to 16 videos he had posted on social media.
Thornton said the officers interrogated him became “flustered” when he asked which videos in particular they objected to. He added that his lawyer “ripped them to bits” and demanded the police “charge him or release him.”
He was finally released without charge or caution on Monday, left with a lengthy train journey home." IW

Poland Considers War Crimes Extradition for WWII Nazi Applauded by Trudeau and Zelensky

India’s decision reflected its “growing concern at the interference of Canadian diplomats in our internal matters and their involvement in anti-India activities,” the statement added.
New Delhi’s move comes in response to Canada’s expulsion of Pavan Kumar Rai, the head of the Research and Analysis Wing of India’s external intelligence agency, amid allegations linking the Indian government to the assassination of a Khalistan activist in June.
Reacting to the accusations, India strongly rejected the Canadian government’s claims, calling them “absurd.” RT

NYT In Rare About-Face Now Says Ukraine (Not Russia) Behind Mass Casualty Missile Strike On Market

"The New York Times has issued a surprise about-face regarding the September 6 deadly

missile strike on the center of the Ukrainian city of Kostiantynivka, which is in Donetsk Oblast.
Initially it was universally reported among all major international press that it was a Russian attack which killed at least 15 civilians and injured 30 more. It was among the single deadliest strikes on a civilian area since the start of the war, given a busy market had been directly impacted.
The fresh Tuesday Times report underscores that less than two hours after the market was struck, "President Volodymyr Zelensky blamed Russian 'terrorists' for the attack, and many media outlets followed suit." The NY Times was at the time among those major outlets which uncritically went with Zelensky's version of events.
But the missile came from the Ukrainian side, with the NY Times' investigators finding that it was a Ukrainian surface-to-air missile that hit the busy civilian area and killed and wounded scores.
One of the key videos which the NYT analyzed to reach this conclusion was actually provided by Zelensky's office, ironically enough.
According to the New York Times report, "evidence collected and analyzed by The New York Times, including missile fragments, satellite imagery, witness accounts and social media posts, strongly suggests the catastrophic strike was the result of an errant Ukrainian air defense missile fired by a Buk launch system."
