Request for assistance: Strelkov press conference media coverage

Igor Strelkov: All that members of the 5th column value is money and other material resources. Their families and offspring have been evacuated abroad long ago and their safety depends entirely on the will of their western masters.

Indeed. In his latest report John Helmer writes at length about one of these 5th column reptiles. It is sickening. One would think that there’s an independent judiciary willing and able to pick a fight with crooks in high office or that the president of the RF had the powers to force his prime minister to weed out traitors and corruptniks from his cabinet … but apparently this isn’t so.

“Hmmm. I remember they said they wouldn’t adhere to the other one(s?), but are you sure they’re not a US company? I thought they were pretty Rockefeller-ish.”

They maybe Rockefeller but sanctions are for Joe and Jane Mainstreet. ExxonMobil and their partners are busy reshaping global oil/energy and will not be deterred.” Do you think Obama, EUUK vassal leaders can disrupt this?

The ExxonMobil Russia-Rosneft Partnership vs. Obama’s Sanctions Regime against Russia?
Why ExxonMobil’s Partnerships With Russia’s Rosneft Challenge the Narrative of U.S. Exports As Energy Weapon

In 2012, ExxonMobil and Rosneft signed an agreement “to share technology and expertise” with one another. Some of the details:
-Forming of a joint venture to explore offshore oil and gas in the Kara Sea and the Black Sea
-Rosneft acquiring a 30 percent stake in 20 ExxonMobil-owned offshore oil and gas blocks in the Gulf of Mexico.
“The 20 blocks have a total area of approximately 111,600 acres (450 square kilometers) in water depths ranging between 2,100 and 6,800 feet (640 and 2,070 meters),” explained a Rosneft press release.

-Rosneft obtained a 30 percent stake in ExxonMobil’s share in the La Escalera Ranch project in the Permian Basin Shale in West Texas. It also gained a 30 percent stake in a portion of ExxonMobil’s stake in Alberta’s Cardium Shale formation.
In 2013, ExxonMobil and Rosneft announced a partnership to conquer the Arctic for oil and gas, creating the Arctic Research and Design Center for Continental Shelf Development.
ExxonMobil put down the first $200 million for the initial research and development work, while Rosneft threw down $250 million later. Officially, Rosneft owns 66.67 percent of the venture and ExxonMobil owns 33.33 percent.[.]

Tillerson recently said the ongoing events in Crimea and Ukraine at-large will have no expected impact on his company’s partnerships with Rosneft.
“There has been no impact on any of our plans or activities at this point, nor would I expect there to be any, barring governments taking steps that are beyond our control,” he said at the company’s recent annual meeting, as reported by The Wall Street Journal. “We don’t see any new challenges out of the current situation.”

“Not a U.S. Company”

In Steve Coll‘s book “Private Empire: ExxonMobil and American Power,” he documents that Lee Raymond — former CEO of ExxonMobil from 1993-2005 — was asked if his company would build more U.S. refineries to fend off gasoline shortages.
Raymond’s reply: “I’m not a U.S. company and I don’t make decisions based on what’s good for the U.S.”

and they are going ahead here, here

. . . .
As for sanctions [effective today 12 September, 2014] – on oil, finance/banking (restricting funding), defense – sounds good, but the oil giants are to a large extent self-financed and lend their excess cash reserves to the global banks. USEU insolvent banks will be the ones hurting big, time. They can’t lend so they won’t get.

China benefits.

Russia’s Response To European Capital Sanctions In One Word-China

While the West continues to press the “Russia is increasingly isolated” meme, it appears – as we noted ironically previously, that Vladimir Putin is finding plenty of friends… most notably China. [the] slew of news overnight regarding increased cooperation between China and Russia is likely more damaging to Western strategy (and egos).[.]

Perhaps already mentioned in the comments and overlooked by me, but here’s from (the Dutch) Derk Sauer’s Moscow Times:

A spectre haunts Europe. It is the spectre of freedom. From north-west Europe to south-east Europe, professional politicians of the Establishment elites are quaking: they may lose their jobs and with them all their opportunistic careerism and self-seeking will have been for nothing.

Scotland

Perhaps on orders from a worried Washington, today three English public schoolboys (in fact one a Polish Jew who attended an elite State school, but his manner is still that of an English public schoolboy) have hurried to Scotland in panic. They fear freedom and the people who may vote for freedom. Washington is worried about a new country that, initially at least, will be free of both its political and economic arm, the EU, and of its military arm, NATO. No doubt the CIA, through its poodles in England, is listening in on nationalist conversations, in the hope that it can discredit Scottish leaders. Certainly, the sight of three English public schoolboys in Scotland will bring in a great many votes for the Scottish National cause.

Together with them, all European Establishments are worried. If Scotland does opt for freedom, Wales, Northern Ireland and then at last England will also free themselves, but France, Spain and Italy, at the very least, are also directly concerned, for they too have minorities, from Brittany to Catalonia, from Lombardy to Corsica. All artificial unions are doomed to collapse, whether the Soviet Union, the British Union (UK), the European Union or the American Union (USA). The implications of freedom for Scotland are enormous; little wonder that the Westminster Establishment has scurried to Scotland. However, the more intelligent among them must realize that, whether their last-minute delaying-tactic bribes work or not, Scotland’s departure from the Union imposed on it over 300 years ago is sooner or later inevitable. The game is up.

If a yes for freedom vote is recorded, the UK will no longer exist and the British flag will seem an anachronism. But if the UK no longer exists, then we shall all be free of the EU. The absurdly-named United Kingdom Independence Party, UKIP, will have to call itself what it is, the Independence Party. As for the three other political parties in England, they can then at last coalesce into one and rename themselves the single party for EU-appointed careerists and opportunists – which is what they have long been. As for a place on the UN Security Council, perhaps that absurdly biased organization can at last be restructured and places given to the countries that really matter and represent the real world: China, India, USA, Russia, Germany, Brazil and South Africa.

Cutting through the weaving of his rhetoric — its all too cleverish, by the way — all that Strelkov is trying to do is to downplay the victory of Novorussia forces — i.e., to damage its morale — and to create mistrust and dissent in Russia itself.

There is even military nonsense in his message, anyway. The ukie’s reserves waiting for the Russian invasion is one of them.

I hear a jobless man.
Who talks about a lost case.
Lost from the beginning (because US/EU/NATO is more evil and more strong).

Maedhros,

Yes. And CIA-funded Fundagelicals? Now that makes a whole lot of sense, doesn’t it. I’m thinking Africa too, and maybe the Americas??

Ooops! IBT link covers Strelkov from July but ugh, what a filthy rag the International Business Times is?

Back in March the Moscow Times alarmed me with their coverage of Maidan and now this:

The term “fifth column” has been used frequently in Russia during the Ukraine crisis to describe Western leaders and the new authorities in Kiev, who separatists like Strelkov have refused to recognize as legitimate.

What’s their game?

Moscow. September 11th. INTERFAX.RU – Moscow Mayor’s Office confirmed the coordination of the opposition rally to be held in Moscow on 21 September. This was reported by “Interfax” on Thursday, the head of the department of regional security and combating corruption in Moscow Alexei Mayorov.

“The application organizers indicated the goal of the event: to express and shape public opinion about the violation of human rights laws, the Constitution and international obligations of the Russian Federation, as well as the norms of international law, to express requirements to comply with them,” – said the official.

He added that the authorities of the capital brought to administrative responsibility of the organizers of the march, if the participants come out with slogans that do not meet agreed with the municipality of the capital request.

Earlier, the opposition said they were going to hold a “peace march” on the events in Ukraine. The opposition will hold on September 21 agreed with the authorities share-march from Pushkin Square to Sakharov Avenue. The application specified part in the demonstration to 50 thousand. Persons. The rally is planned.

On Thursday morning, opposition leader Sergei Davidis “Interfax” that on Thursday morning he received a call from the Moscow mayor’s office and was told that the application for the march on September 21 agreed.

In Novosibirsk, the procession will not be

Earlier today it was reported that the authorities refused Novosibirsk local opposition in carrying out a similar action because of violation of terms of the notification. According to the opposition, a notice was served to the town hall still 5th of September.

Chairman of the Committee Novosibirsk city administration on the interaction with the administrative authorities Anatoly Potapov said that on the eve of the organizer had to come to a meeting at the town hall to discuss the application, but this did not happen.

In turn, the chairman of the Novosibirsk cell movement “Solidarity” was the initiator of the action, Igor Savin on his page “Vkontakte” said the organizer Sergei Rodionov could not get to the mayor of Novosibirsk, because he was arrested by law enforcement authorities on the steps of the building.

Alientech, whenever I see Moscow Times posts and think of the ‘control’ the Russian government is supposed to have over the media I wonder what is going on.

However, Moscow Times barely exists as a newspaper and is hardly a must see destination for Russians. I reckon their traffic is up a lot at the moment given that they publish in English and most searchers from outside Russia can’t read Russian.

On a larger scale though, when one reads and sees Russian media then one understands that there is probably a greater variance of opinion and voice than in most countries in the English speaking world.

This is propaganda designed, from western media to get us to ignore, or downplay anything we might pick up from Russian media.

Of course, when looking at Ukraine’s media, well, apart from the seriousness of the issues it is wall to wall comedy gold. So much shouting about a single point of view and a single narrative extolling extreme nationalism. (Glory to Ukraine, to Ukraine glory!’

“In Novosibirsk, the procession will not be” right, because the completely fraudulent, manufactured ‘Siberian independence movement’ cited by the Ukie/USAID/NED/NRI propaganda machine can’t muster two people to gather in a city of 1 million, Novosibirsk.

Without a response from Putin, the question on everyones mind is, is he challenging Putin?

@dalpe. I thought that very thing thus the news embargo. Dangerous

dusty, the variety of opinion, the genuine debate and the simple honesty of RT is light years away from the sordid monoculture of the mind, Groupthink and preposterous condescending arrogance of the Western ‘Free Press’. The BBC, the mucilaginous ‘The Guardian’, let alone the sordid bedlams of the Murdoch sewer and the rest of the Zionist dominated US MSM are nothing but very crude propaganda machines, and, truth be told, always were.
