Edition No82 | 17-01-2025 - Russia is a terrorist state. We’ve been saying this for three years on the channel. But Russia constantly reminds of this fact. The latest is an allegation that Russia plotted terror attacks on airlines around the world. According to Polish PM, Donald Tusk this bombshell news has come from US intelligence sources. "I can only confirm that Russia planned acts of air terror, not just against Poland but against airlines across the globe," said Tusk during a meeting with Volodymyr Zelenskyy. ---------- At relatively short notice, we're organising two events in Ukraine in the last week of January. Lviv (part 2) and Kyiv. The event we ran in August 2023 was a huge success, and had a great impact. Now our aim is even more ambitious. Two cities. Two events. Multiple panels consisting of the best experts, and all filmed in high definition for the channel. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras But it costs. Last time the overall cost was £3,500 for Live in Lviv, and we covered 80% of this through ticket sales. This time the costs are higher, and there's less opportunity to sell tickets at the available venues and studios, so I'm creating a campaign to raise £5,000 to make this trip a reality. We also have a much more ambitious programme to film interviews around Kyiv and Lviv for the channel. This project will have an impact, so please help if you can. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- U.S. intelligence warned the White House that Russia was planning to smuggle incendiary devices onto cargo planes heading to the US. This sounds very similar to the devices apparently planted on DHL delivery places, that are alleged to have caused two warehouse fires. According to The New York Times report The White House, warned the Kremlin to stop the operation. Tusk did not provide details to underpin the allegation, but it was felt serious enough to put his reputation on the line by stating it emphatically, in public, and in the full glare of the world’s press, given that he was with Zelenskyy at the time. "All I can say, and I will not go into details, but I can confirm the validity of these fears," said Tusk. ---------- SILICON CURTAIN FILM FUNDRAISER A project to make a documentary film in Ukraine, to raise awareness of Ukraine's struggle and in supporting a team running aid convoys to Ukraine's front-line towns. https://buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain/extras ---------- NEWS SOURCES: https://www.politico.eu/article/russia-planned-terror-attacks-airlines-around-world-donald-tusk-says/ https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/news/russia-planned-acts-of-terror-in-the-air-polands-tusk-says/ https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cy4717j21kko https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/azerbaijan-airlines-flight-was-downed-by-russian-air-defence-system-four-sources-2024-12-26/ https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/europe/paris-olympics-train-vandalism-cause-b2586422.html https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-13675809/French-train-arson-Putins-new-terror-tactic.html ---------- SUPPORT THE CHANNEL: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/siliconcurtain https://www.patreon.com/siliconcurtain ---------- TRUSTED CHARITIES ON THE GROUND: Save Ukraine https://www.saveukraineua.org/ Superhumans - Hospital for war traumas https://superhumans.com/en/ UNBROKEN - Treatment.
