I am seriously getting the feeling that the western plutocracy has decided to trigger a war with Russia. What else could explain this type of coordinated “minute of hate” -kind of propaganda:

Ukraine Violated ICAO Disclosure Rules – Russian Aviation Authority
http://en.ria.ru/world/20140728/191411754/Ukraine-Violated-ICAO-Disclosure-Rules–Russian-Aviation.html
“…“The Ukrainian side violates the basic principles of air disaster investigation cooperation among the parties involved,” Rosaviatsiya’s deputy chief and head of the Russian expert group in the UK, Oleg Storchevoi, said in a statement.
A spokesman for Ukraine’s National Security and Defense Council, Andriy Lysenko, said earlier in the day that the data retrieved from the crashed Boeing’s black boxes indicates that the aircraft crashed following a massive decompression caused by a missile strike. He cited information allegedly obtained from members of an international expert panel investigating the crash.
“We would like to note the inadmissibility of such comments made by any side involved in the investigation, because it does not contribute to a calm, unbiased and professional work to establish the cause of the air disaster,” Storchevoi stressed.
The Dutch Safety Board (DSB) in charge of the investigation was initially to unveil its findings on August 1, according to the UK’s Independent newspaper.
The British daily claimed Dutch officials had been stunned by Lysenko’s “premature” disclosure during a press conference, although they did not confirm the theory. It said further that Ukraine’s source is now under scrutiny after the board said it hadn’t shared any information with Kiev.
“I can’t make a comment on what source Mr. Lysenko has… We don’t want to confirm or say anything about the information on the black boxes right now; this in the best interest of the investigation itself,” The Independent cited DSB spokeswoman Sara Vernooij as saying Monday…”

Russia’s UN Envoy Slams Ukraine Military Action Near MH17 Crash Site
http://en.ria.ru/world/20140728/191412233/Russias-UN-Envoy-Slams-Ukraine-Military-Action-Near-MH17-Crash.html
“UNITED NATIONS, July 28 (RIA Novosti) – Russian Permanent Representative to the UN Vitaly Churkin on Monday said the Ukrainian military is still active inside the 40km area around the MH17 crash site, in violation of UN Security Council Resolution 2166.
Churkin cited the resolution’s call for an international investigation and for an immediate end of the fighting in the area of the crash. And, he said, “President [Petro] Poroshenko promised no activity of the Ukrainian military in a radius of forty kilometers,” adding “that did continue.”
The fighting “did not allow the international investigators and those accompanying them to reach the crash site,” the Russian envoy noted.
Churkin said it is “extremely disturbing” that some Ukrainian security officials have been saying it is the country’s “intention to take over the site militarily.” That, he said, would be a direct violation of the UN Security Council Resolution…”

Saker, I send blessings to you and your family. I read your blog twice at least daily. I put my energies into MSM comments. This is tonight’s…
Sanctions will bring deeper recession to the EU but paradoxically may make Russia stronger in the mid to long term as it de-globalizes from the West and starts producing previously imported goods and services at home, a process that has already begun.
The sanctions madness is already producing a schism in Germany between powerful industrialists (who are very happy with the billions they earn from Russia) and supine politicians and media. It is a schism that resonates deep into the middle classes, even in this country. The media and politicians have become embedded in each other, both dutifully trotting out the Washington line.
I believe the rebels may at some point retreat into Russia, plus all those who do not wish to live in Iraq 2 or Libya 2. Russia is underpopulated. Putin will then close down the borders and leave the Americans and the EU to deal with the mess. And if Biden Jr. thinks he is going to get some fracking done around Donetsk, he will have some serious hard-core partisans to deal with.
Report of US special forces troops in Ukraine:
http://herstelderepubliek.wordpress.com/2014/07/27/amerikanen-vechten-al-in-oekraine/
There seems to be an effort to shell and/or seize the most important piece of real estate in Ukraine, the MA17 crash site. Unwisely, the NR leaders gave up the blackbodies, instead of demanding that the investigation be organized in a warehouse in Donetsk.
NATO now has the pilots’ tapes, the control-tower tapes, and all they need is to destroy the crash site. Once their own incriminating evidence is cancelled, incriminating evidence against Novorossiya is needed.
For that, Kyiv Post prepared an article. I thought the reporter had found that Strelkov tweeted every time he got a plane. No such luck, but i learned there that this “Strelkov” posted the note– “we warned you, don’t fly in ” ‘our sky’ “–and that he added a smiley.
Is that Strelkov’s style? Hardly.
Had Strelkov done that before? No.
Did Strelkov’s messages ever appear, without a banner? Of course not.
Just this time he did it, in a reckless triumph; to me, it would not have been such an extraordinary event; after all, this was the third plane for the week.
But the most important thing is that it was posted at 4.50, Kiev time. Amsterdam lost contact at 4.15.
Obviously, the NR soldiers had to rush to the scene, to prevent UA gunships from reaching it and pick up any evidence or survivors–parachutes had been reported.
The NR Army had to be there within minutes, Hundreds of people saw the plane fall. Guys on bikes quickly arrived. They had phones.
And you want us to believe that more that half an hour later, they had not yet called headquarters with the awful news? And that Strelkov, half an hour later, mosied over to the computer and put a smiley in?
And that he did not call Moscow at once, to tell them, when he found out.
And that at 17.37 he still had not got the bad news and did not cancel the message, but that pravda-tv.ru copied the message, and again at 18.32 it was repeated by Russkaya Vesna.
Clearly, the first post was from Kiev, and the other Russian posters were just repeating the Kiev false flag Strelkov tales.

“Putin does not understand that he can hire PR firms and buy ad time. He does not “get it”.
Another who confuses Putin with Russia.
The western media and PR firms are mostly owned and run in the zionist Jews. Fat chance they will give Russia any help on the western media scene as it is these very same people leading the charge of Russia demonisation for Israel’s benefit.
Rather than insult Russians and Putin and whinge like a child, clean up your own house and put those corrupt, zionist media sods out of business by boycotting them altogether. Remove their monopoly of what westerners are allowed to see, hear and think, then maybe, just maybe, people in the west might realise it’s not Russia who is their enemy, but zionists and other nazi sods.

Liberal oposition paper Novaya Gazeta printed a front page with the words: “Forgive us, Netherlands” (in Dutch). Pretty repulive, considering the vile demonization campaign the country is suffering from the West.

This is a stew Russia helped prepared and now finds itself inside the cooking pot.
For years Russia didn’t want to work with China but with Europe because Russia is European.
Well this it’s what you get. How much money was spent subsidizing Ukraine and look how the dog bit the hand that fed it.
The Chinese oil price is a lower gross but higher nett. The European oil prices are a higher gross but lower nett.
Russia does not know who it’s friends are. Like when China told Russia, don’t glasnost before perestroika.
Hopefully Russia has now woken the fuck up for real.
For as long as he (Putin) gets this coverage – He is doing something right.

Uh, how’re you gonna use your guns from a jail cell? Totally agreed on the futility of protesting but there is an election coming up and we do have that leverage. Not nearly as exciting or dramatic as thinking about blasting their heads off, but likely to be more effective in both the short-term and, frankly, down the road as well. If push comes to shove here, it’ll be after another false-flag and most of the people you’re counting on to join the ranks will fall for it and go after you instead. Sorry. Instead — just look up your Congresscritter’s DC phone number and call tomorrow. Emails are useless but their staff may be at least tallying phone calls. And yeah, writing letters to the editor is a slog, but who knows whom you might reach. These are both simple things you can do now that will make a difference now. Oh, and buying American??? What? Even if there is something actually made here, the amount you and anyone else now against this war have to spend Wouldn’t. Even. Get. Noticed. if it weren’t. There are probably other practical, effective things too but not paying taxes and fantasizing while cleanin’ yer weapon ain’t it.
Yukos and Menatep, one of Yukos owners.
The Rothschild family had an interest in Menatep. This was discussed on the net several years ago.
Noone has ever had to pay 50 billions before. Never.
When was the verdict made? Before or after the plane crash?

A couple of minor observations from Russia: I’ve just returned from a 10-day group tour of Moscow, Suzdal, St. Petersburg, plus two days beforehand visiting a friend in Moscow. I was the only person in our group that knew Russian well enough to carry on a conversation. In Suzdal, after I’d explained to the tour guide, the local Suzdal guide, and the driver where I learned Russian (U.S. Army), and when (pre-Vietnam), they asked me together if the current situation was like the “1962 [Cuban missile] crisis”. I said it wasn’t, at least I hoped not. I hadn’t paid much attention to the airline shoot-down, which had taken place a couple days before, not watching TV much, but they were clearly troubled by the situation.
Then this Sunday, when leaving St. Petersburg on the way to the airport, our tour guide at that end and the driver asked me what a White House spokesman, whose name they thought was “Mr. Ellis” or “Mr. Ernest”, they weren’t sure which, meant when he warned Mr. Putin “would be held personally responsible for the current situation.” Different people, but again clearly troubled by the situation. I said I hadn’t heard the statement, didn’t know who the person was or what to make of it, and hoped it was nothing worse than political posturing, the norm in Washington. [In reality, I was appalled. It sounded like a direct threat to a head of state, almost a declaration of war. In chess you never attack your opponent’s king.]
PS: Russia itself was glorious, my first trip. Marvelous weather, in the 20’s C, 80’s F. New buildings and re-building everywhere. Smooth, quiet Sapsan high-speed train between the two capitals at 240 KM/hr. And most spectacularly, an incredible large number of very-well-dressed, strikingly-attractive women everywhere in their light summer attire, like being in Paris. (Think Maria Sharapova by the millions.) When I got back, our American women looked drab in comparison. (I’m sure Nora of this blog is an exception.)

Dacian,
Oh for gosh sakes! I never knew that: so their City on a Hill got basically Royal permission. Guess Charles I was rather eager to be rid of them, huh. Of course, we were always taught they just couldn’t get no freedom in England or Holland but in point of fact, it wasn’t freedom to worship the way they wanted, it was freedom to impose THEIR religion on everyone else.
Dang. All the reading I ever did on that (Perry Miller, ad infinitum) and this one got right by me! Wow.
Now as to the Bolshevism: still having trouble w/the money part (except for Lenin et. al.’s initial funding) but it sure does make sense in terms of power! I’m still having trouble defending Stalin’s, erm, methodology though…
The ‘plutocracy’ is probably betting on the wrong horse if history is any guide.
A russia-nato war on russia’s border will last about 15 minutes.
Anything from nato in the black Sea will be gone quicker than that.
Then what?
Are the lunatics in Washington really then going to follow their established doctrine of preemptive nuclear strikes?
Game over – for everyone – if they do. Or perhaps this is how they want it to play out…
The US is a failed empire, we all know it but they just don’t accept it’s time for the world to move past the nonsense delivered up for the past 70 years and get on with life.
Does anyone else wonder what would happen, say, if anyone in any level of authority inside the Anglo-Zionist Empire were to protest what is going on? I was wondering about the American and Canadian judges, but, really, anyone? Would they even keep their job?
Bottom line, we have truly become that which we have always been propagandized against.
Nora says:
“The Empire must be in far worse shape than we expected, far more desperate than we thought. Every bit as stupid though.”
Exactly. except for “stupid”.
all these covers are the same week’s issue, n’est pas?
3 days ago i toured the mag stands in a university-town bookstore for Ukraine articles; not cover stories, but any listings on the cover. NOTHING! (tho the left-liberal Nation Magazine was gone, “we don’t sell that many of them”).
On radio, KPFA/KPFK, Pacifica RAdio which is as farleft as US media gets, were reporting Ukraine/airline using a British voice, in British categories – which means the subtext reflected the Washington playbook. (this could mean these Commie retreads can’t find their party line with both hands in daylight; it took them years on the money).
So what we have is a uniform propaganda front from the Pacific Ocean to the Polish/Belarus border. what could be so compelling as to enforce
such conformity across the entire range of Western editorial control? (has anyone checked Iceland?)
What are they protecting?
they need a bad guy – not some mock-up like “the war on terror”. the Pentagon is not just a war machine; it’s Central Planning.

Collaborating unequivocally (in my opinion) with the offensive Russophobic, an example of which is the position of the Trotskyists in Spain. Although the article was originally published in a French publication( also Trotskyist, or anti-capitalist as they like to call ) has also published Viento Sur, the publication of the Trotskyists in Spain. It is always the same, Libya, Syria, now Ukraine, based on what it claims seem a neutral peace stance, guilt are loaded in one hand, totally ignoring the actors behind the other.
Attention to the adjudication of guilt on the MH17 event and total manipulation about the composition of the resistance in Novorussia.

Better to see this than the western press praising Yeltsin, as he stumbled around on the nightly news making his country look foolish.
Thing is though, Russia is not Iraq and Russia is not Libya. I doubt very much there’ll be hot war between major powers but what we will see is the Western fascists trying to lure Russia into expensive proxy wars. Hell, they may even think getting Russia into Ukraine will be all that’s needed to destroy Putin by ushering in another Soviet- Afghanistan scenario. Sadly for them, Putin & co are too smart for these bankrupt cretins. It didn’t work with Chechnya, so why do they think it’ll work with Ukraine??? Honestly, these Anglo-American slimeballs are like a desperate gambler down to his last roll of the dice.

Yes, it is WAR. The British are sending 350 armored vehicles for a military “exercise” in Poland. 350!
Remember – it’s the British Empire of Rothshildes/Windsors that runs this global war. US, Israel, GCC and the Commonwealth countries are just puppets (creations) doing their bidding.
And the Economist and other magazines are known Rothshildes’ mouthpieces.
It’s building up to war all right; but what’s being planned next has nothing to do with missiles (that comes later).
All this propaganda is meant to whip public opinion into such a frenzy that the next Maidan step will seem utterly natural:
An “orange revolution” in St. Petersburg, in September.
…It is already clear that the Americans start an attack on Russia from the strike in St. Petersburg. The first blow will be out in September during the elections of the Governor.
[…]
They have calculated that in St. Petersburg a weaker position – vulnerable place. Any approach goes where weaker. Why weaker? Because traditionally in opposition to the city. If the balance of the opposition in Moscow thirty percent, in St. Petersburg under forty (potential). The balance of power, liberal views… Peter as the city of three revolutions. It is not a coincidence.
[…]
Symbolically large city, city Putin. So this is a blow to Putin through Peter is a blow to Russia through Ukraine. Americans understand this.
I’m not convinced about where this is all going. The populace needs to be kept in a state of extreme fear so that all programs of the state are unchallenged. All those states in **** will have to cut social programs even more and support military spending even more. UkieNam will continue, but all out war between the big military powers? Dubious.

i seriously can see 2 things that are blowing my mind all at once:
1. the piss smell of fear in the west
2. the pure unadulterated incompetence and arrogance of the west as it stand now
fear and arrogance vs honor and strength
the agitprop is deep but even a child should be able to delineate where to stand when history as written.
look, no one is saying all elites and “leaders” are saints.
if that’s what oyure looking for, grow the fuck up, then come back.
but, if you cannot see the stark difference between putin and the west, you’re ensconced comfortably in your blind spot.
Any objective analysis, based on the historical record – i.e. FACTS – would completely expose the west
and especially the united states of america as aggressors, instigators and pure agents of death.
mean reversion for the USA will be as they say… a bitch.

“BTW – I found it interesting that Putin was baptised on the day of the Archangel Michael”
So do I and I also see the reference to St. Vladimir – who, a long time ago, lived in presentday Ukraine, the birthplace of Russia and the Russian Church. Vladimir played a special part.
Vladimir Putin has a picture of Nicholas the first in his office. Nicholas lost the Crimean war. Vladimir intends to win this one. I think he is well armed and I am not talking about guns. He is a man of principles and faith. “Many more are with him than with the enemy”. That is a reference to a battle in the Old Testament. My memory fails me, so I cant give you the Bible verse and a perfect translation.

Considering the great numbers of people Obama, GW Bush, Clinton, and GHW Bush murdered, vilifying Putin in this manner proves that the so-called Western Media hasn’t done its job whatsoever at least since 1981–33 years–and much longer actually–since 1963: 50+ years. And as an historian, I know it’s even much longer than that–beyond my entire adult lifetime. What’s different is the lies and vilification campaigns only target the nation’s leader, not the nation or its ideology. But, it’s plain to see that the mirror-image holds the truth–the actual terroristic heads-of-state: Obama, Cameron, Merkel should grace those covers.
Remember, the War has already begun. The Outlaw Empire is trying to separate the R from BRICS, and will begin to target other members, with China already in the target area as Escobar’s outlined. I suggest the leadership of those nations are under no illusions about what’s occurring.
It’s funny–no?–how the Peace (sic) (ig)Nobelist U.S. President is teaming up with the Peace (sic) (ig)Nobelist EU to provoke the mother of all wars…

As reported by Tyler Durden of Zero Hedge, the Russian response to the extra-legal ruling of a corrupt court in the Netherlands, which had no jurisdiction over the case on which it ruled, awarding $50 billion dollars from the Russian government to shareholders of Yukos, a corrupt entity that was looting Russia and evading taxes, is telling. Asked what Russia would do about the ruling, an advisor to President Putin replied, “There is a war coming in Europe.” Do you really think this ruling matters?”
@ lumpy gravy @ 20:22
Agreed 100% ..Russia’s policy of “non interference” is a loser confronted with people who will stop at nothing, literally to get their way. NOTHING is too low for them. If this were a board game, and I were Russia, I would be working to give Turkey the reverse – Ukraine treatment. I would be establishing a strong anti EU presence in GREECE by supporting their Marxist anti-EU politicians. Frankly, SCREW China. China will never be anyone’s ally, not the US OR Russia AND THEY WILL ALWAYS PLAY BOTH SIDES TO GET THIER WAY. China is a huge strategic waste of time. Continue to partner with China. Nurture strong relations with China. But don’t expect anything from China in return, and whenver its a choice between China and India, INDIA MUST ALWAYS WIN OUT. I would throw all of my diplomatic dollars in Asia to INDIA. Period. The fellowship and historical cooperation and good will is there. India will never be much more than a colony/patsy/cheap labor for the US. I would be providing technological and other material assistance to NORTH KOREA. I would be working to liberate the people of Columbia from their death squad running pro US narco-terrorist government. . I would sponsor Venezuela into the BRICS as an “associate member” and show that two can play that game. I would be making all kinds of nice and trade footsie with Japan. I would bring Cuba back into the block….is anyone paying attention in Moscow??? Hello?????

Strelkov does not “Tweet” – he is running a war – not running around like a hairbrained 23 year old. He posts occasional messages on a private forum which are sometimes reprinted by others on the vKonakte fanpage “Strelkov-Info”. These personal reports are specially tagged by his fans with a banner “Strelkov Report”.
In particular, the report on the downing of the AN-26 was specifically labled as “Report from Militia”, not “Strelkov Report”. See screen capture of it here.
http://niqnaq.wordpress.com/2014/07/25/problems-problems-2/
The fact the ALL of the western press lies about this simply verified fact and claims that a fanpage is his personal account shows you what their motives are – all lies all the time. Not a single media outlet has reported the most basic facts about this forum and Strelkov, even though they are easily verified.

Voting and expecting it to make a difference in the US is delusional. Sorry, but who are you going to vote for to “make a difference” ??.The buy American suggestion was far more nuanced than you apparently noticed. “Buy American” is a good and legitimate act of resistance against our financialized plutocracy. The power of the finance capitalists who are driving this confrontation with Russia came, and comes from deindustrialization at the expense of a strong and politically active working class (which the USA once had). . The American working class is not responsible for the criminal actions of its degenerate financialized ruling class, which overwhelmingly, routinely, ignores public opinion. It can do this because it knows the working class has been thoroughly broken and depoliticized (by deindustrialization) and would like to keep it that way. Offshoring + “free trade” is primarily how It broke the political power of the proletariat (no power when your broke, disorganized, and unemployed).So please don’t ridicule people who wish to buy American.Even if it only helps a little,buy American. It takes some discernment to find American made but when you do so you are putting your money where your keyboard is.
The unrelenting hatred from Washington duly served up by the ZioMedia stems directly from US rage at the bloodless loss of Crimea and any chance of taking the naval base at Sevastopol as well as being thwarted from getting NATO boots on the ground in the Ukraine.
It appears that there is a cabal ? a cell? a focus group? whatever one wants to call it that is running US foreign policy and it amounts to a shadow government.
The Russians need to persevere and they are good at that. If Europe does major sanctions against Russia, they will crash their own economies like Italy, Portugal etc and then the rest will wobble. Expect some creaks and groans as the structure starts crack in warning by the Fall ( no pun). No need for hysteria–this is a war on a different front and it will stretch throughout the whole damnable US Presidential election process.
People may think Putin is a stinker but they are not going to war for the Ukraine–this is about destabilization and bleeding of Russia to weaken it.
Western elites would love to put Russia back to its feudal past with an aristocracy that this time spoke English instead of French but it is not going to happen.
While western media currently engages in inflammatory reporting intended to influence/manipulate public opinion and incite hatred against Russia, I also predict that in time, when the unfolding situation between opposing (nuclear armed) military blocs likely deteriorates more significantly into direct military conflict, they will no doubt be calling for peace. But it will likely be too late. Wars often have a momentum of their own and stopping wars is far more difficult than initiating them.
Indeed, hostile operations between nuclear armed blocs are already active and expanding, albeit in preliminary stages (covert/proxy operations, mobilisation of military forces/assets/missile architecture, information warfare/war propaganda, economic warfare/sanctions/economic sabotage operations, destabilisation/partition/regime change operations within Russia, etc.). What is occurring is more than a cold war but not yet a direct hot war.
Although Russian strategists will almost certainly continue to employ moderate/calculated responses and preferentially pursue political resolutions to disputes, Russia no doubt (and correctly) also anticipates a possible worst case scenario resulting from developments.
“The possibility of local armed conflicts along nearly the whole border has increased dramatically. In certain conditions, I do not rule out local and regional armed conflicts developing into a large-scale war, including using nuclear weapons.” [Russian General Nikolai Makarov] (Russia warns NATO on its readiness for nuclear WW3, Nov 18th, 2011 [and/or] Nuclear war could erupt along Russia’s borders with Europe, warns Kremlin commander, 18th November 2011)
“The [military] units involved in the exercise also practiced a massive nuclear launch-under-attack strike by the Moscow missile defense forces.” (Russian military practices massive launch-under-attack strike under Putin’s supervision, 8 May 2014)
p2. In addition to U.S./NATO backed military operations by the Ukrainian regime in E Ukraine, this bloc will almost certainly target Crimea (and Transnistria) next. But far more significant preparations are being made (evident by expanding operations and the concurrent mobilisation of military forces/assets under claims of defence):
“Speaking from the Aspen Security Forum, a defense industry conference in Colorado, [Chairman of the U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Martin] Dempsey said Pentagon planners are now looking at military options we haven’t had to look at for 20 years and warned that Putin—whom he characterized as escalating the crisis inside Ukraine—may actually light a fire he cannot control. And not just in Ukraine or eastern Europe, Dempsey said, but globally.” (Gen. Dempsey: We’re Pulling Out Our Cold War Military Plans over Ukraine, by Jon Queally, July 25, 2014)
If NATO is to engage in joint military exercises with the Ukrainian regime in September, it is reasonable to expect more significant NATO participation in the Ukrainian conflict. September may very well turn out to be a grave month.
If one or more parties are committed to war, regardless of efforts to prevent this outcome, war will occur. Russian analysts are no doubt aware of this reality. U.S./NATO preparations for war against Russia are evident. It is therefore respectfully advisable for Russia to respond to the U.S. pre-emptive doctrine with a symmetrical doctrine (although the current doctrine and military technology is adequate to maintain the deterrent situation of mutually assured destruction in the event of a nuclear war event). A pre-emptive doctrine would however enhance Russia’s situation in the event of an imminent nuclear war event.
Unfortunately, the situation will likely deteriorate and become increasingly untenable until eventually, a response will be necessary. I respectfully advise Russian strategists that when Russia is forced to respond, that it respond decisively.
In the meantime, the employment of propaganda will unfortunately only serve to inflame tensions. Importantly, it will not change the reality of what is occurring. It will also offer them no protection from probable approaching events. Soon they will understand. Ut sementem feceris, ita metes.
is there any doubt that 2 major places on the planet that the USA is creating hell right now just happens to be where Russia has its only 2 warm water ports?
me thinks not. no coincidence.

We’ve been doing our best to buy American for a long time now just on principle so I’m not going to argue with doing so, just with its effectiveness at stopping what sure looks like a rush to war. I agree our electoral choices currently suck BUT the current batch still need the votes and that does in fact mean leverage right now at least on that one issue, even if they’re utterly worthless on anything else. Also, the American working class supported Reagan when he broke the Air Traffic Controllers Union, thus biting the hand that had not just fed them but lifted them into the middle class; then Clinton finished them — and us — off with NAFTA. I’ve been asking for years how you could have a country that didn’t make anything and now we know the answer, right? You can’t. But don’t think whatever money we have to spend at this point in time is going to even be noticed by anyone in DC. Do it anyhow bc it’s the right thing to do, but hardly an effective maneuver at stopping this war, or our oligarchs.
I have been following Saker’s blog for almost two years now, and find it very knowledgeable and poses supreme moral authority.
Two points:
(1) More the 18th/19th/20th century ‘western’ imperialistic oligopoly and elites paint ‘dark’ pictures of President Putin in corporate-controlled media, the picture of him becomes more morally upright and shining to the 95% general population of the world. (as always it happened it world history, 1% are resource owners, and 4% are managers attached to the owners leaving 95% at the bottomless pit).
(2) Eurasian landmass has seen French (in 1810s)& German (1940s)
‘western’ imperialist forces moving eastward to seize entire Slavic and Turco-Mongol land (rich in natural resources). It is hard, but still conceivable that, ‘western’ forces led by USA will repeat the historic folly once again around 2020s. And, the result is also known – once again these forces will be awarded a crushing defeat (this time, Russia will get China, who owes their current political boundary to Soviet Union during the end stage of WWII).

The U.S. and NATO will only fight via cruise missiles and B2 bombers.
That tells you they will push forward behind Polish and Lithuanian ground forces and airborne, with some contractors and SOFs on ground.
This means, Transnistria (and Moldova will enter the fray with Poland) and Crimea will be the focus points.
If Russia responds, the NATO kinetic attack is launched.
Kiev will push with every tank, APC and wheelbarrow to splinter and overwhelm Donbass.
Russia will have a hard time putting its mobile units into play. Air Power will engage everything the Russians launch. There will four hundred jets from Poland, Lithuania, Romania leading the way.
The Black Sea fleet will be devastated.
The Baltic fleet will be devastated.
US subs will take out all Russian subs and most surface vessels.
This is how it could go if NATO thinks no nukes will be used against them.
And it is why I said weeks ago, Putin has to demonstrate no reluctance to use tactical weapons to stop NATO.
The U.S. Navy will not want to lose 3-4 carriers. Russia needs to demonstrate it can do this.
There is only one weapon system that will deter NATO and the US. They must be certain that Putin will use it, not in a second strike. In a tactical battlefield use, or they will start a war.
I read that Russia has 6000 tactical nukes.
They are thought to be best used to stop an advancing army. I’m sure there are also some for use to stop an advancing navy.
And of course, aerial use to clear a crowded sky.
Russia needs to provide every reason for NATO to believe the fight will go nuclear right away. Or they will have a real war they won’t win easily.
You are talking about a force that can’t pin down a ragtag bunch resistance fighters in AfPak. NATO would bite off far more than it could ever hope to chew in a conflict with Russia on its own doorstep.

“I am starting a Novena (9 day prayer) today, praying to St. Jude Thaddeus, Patron for Desperate Cases.
The Novena is for Russia, for her safety and well-being. For protection against those who seek to harm her.
I am unsure of what the Orthodox equivalent for this would be, perhaps someone would suggest a Orthodox prayer?”
I believe the equivalent for Orthodox would be an akathist, which is a series of prayers addressed to a saint or holy person. For Russians, this would often be the saint for which they are named, and so I would address St. Juliana of Lazarevo, which is a small village in Russia near Murom. Here is the concluding prayer of that akathist:
O merciful Juliana, helper of orphans, mother who bore thy cross, with thy generous right hand make bestowal upon us who now pray to thee, and ask the all-merciful God whose very name is love that he grant us rich mercies. Be thou a good helper unto mothers that have given birth to children; a holy preserver of purity and love within marriage; a wise nurturer of little children and youths; a compassionate comforter of the orphaned and sorrowful; a sympathetic healer of those who are tempest-tossed by sins; a mighty defender of those subjected to trials by their enemies;and a merciful mediator before God and the all-pure Theotokos for all who ask thine aid. And pray thou all the more, O holy favorite of God, that we be given the grace of the all-holy Spirit, that preserved thereby and saved unceasingly in this life, with thee we may glorify the all-merciful Redeemer, Our Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, to whom is due glory with his all-good Father, and his holy and all-compassionate Spirit, unto ages of ages. Amen

No, its not going to stop a war. It is, an act of anti-globalism and globalism, that combination of finacialization and corrupt – end around democracy is what the wars are being waged for. This campaign against Russia as well as all the American wars in the past 30 years have been in support of the finance sector (the petro dollar) and the western banking system. Never more apparent than in the campaigns against Syria Russia and Iran. It might also help your neighbor keep a job.

Liberal op[p]osition paper Novaya Gazeta printed a front page with the words: “Forgive us, Netherlands” (in Dutch).
The formulation “liberal op[p]osition paper” does not make any sense, unless Newspeak is your first language ;-)
Originally, “liberal” for US-Americans meant, what “social democratic” means for people outside of the USA. However both terms nowadays mean, pro-elite, pro-austerity, pro-welfare-for-the-rich, just in a rather secular and tolerant towards minorities’ fashion. You don’t get actual democracy and have no say as an ordinary person, but you are free to hold rainbow coloured parades and demand equal opportunities for women. That isn’t “liberal” in my book. It’s just the same reactionary, oppressive group think under a more appealing cover, so people do not openly revolt.
“opposition” is another misapplied “Newspeak” term. It does not make sense as a political position, because it does not provide an idea about one’s political point of view. It is “Newspeak”, because within the context of “hostile states” it actually means “US-funded by NGOs in order to help effect regime change”.
Pretty repul[s]ive, considering the vile demonization campaign the country is suffering from the West.
What you see is not “liberal opposition”, but bribed stooges of the US-Empire following orders. That’s what they’re paid for, to turn Russia into a US-colony again with a another boozer like Yeltsin as a figurehead of state. Yes, it is repulsive and even more, it’s outright ignorant for a Russian newspaper to proclaim guilt when there is hard evidence that Russia has nothing to do with it.
But it’s not about informing people, it’s about “anchoring” the message, so that it becomes the official truth that will enter the history books. You “manufacture consent” in order to make it appear that it’s the people and not the elites who want retribution for “Putin’s victims”. Elites can claim “plausible deniability”, stating they are just fulfilling what their electorate wants them to do.

And the Ruskies really should lift their PR game.
The nervous fill the “silence” with chattering, the wise patiently enjoy the silence.
On memory holes.
The immediate precipitation of the invasion of Iraq was Sadaam offering to trade oil for currencies other than US dollars.
The war was about “petro-dollars”, the “control” of oil was to protect the fiat currency in order to extract economic rent.
Tangentally you could say it was about oil.
This goes way beyond propaganda – it’s psycho-pornography!
The Propaganda and Politics of MH17
http://journal-neo.org/2014/07/26/the-propaganda-and-politics-of-mh17/
“…Although the investigation into the crash has only just begun, that has not stopped Washington from attempting to shape the narrative into an indictment of Russia, accusing Moscow of being behind the attacks. Headlines such as White House Blames Russia For MH17 Crash, Saying There’s No Believable Alternative (Huffington Post) and Congress: MH17 Crash Is ‘Ac of Terror,’ and Putin May Be To Blame (The Daily Beast), both of which interestingly come from “liberal” media outlets, have become routine in recent days. The not so subtle, indeed overt, implication of such headlines is that Russia is responsible for the downing of MH17, despite there being no evidence to that effect…”
One can see the Jewish zionist ownership of the western media provides a uniform message to the goy “marks”. I have not checked what the phony left sites have been saying, such as znet, the Real News or Democracy Now, but being zionist fronts, and from their past behaviour, I would be surprised if their coverage is much different than the msm scum.
вот так
It’s the same in Australia. Led by the cancer of the Murdoch MSM, the local media have gone stark, raving mad. The usual manifestations of the Free Press are there-total uniformity of opinion, 100% Groupthink, hysterical, psychotic abuse, lies, lies and more lies etc. Just like Iraq, Syria, Libya etc, but even more so. And it is all allied with blood-chilling hypocrisy, with denunciations of Putin’s alleged ‘bloodthirstiness’, right next to total support for Israel’s child-murdering butchery in Gaza. One can see, first, that this was planned, and the attack was indeed Western organised and executed, or the MSM was awaiting just such a provocation. The West, morally corrupt to the point of outright evil (no real deviation from centuries of practise)knows that it is crumbling. This is secondary to the implosion of their economic structures which, since the Jews took over the West entirely, and transformed their economies into engines of financial speculation entirely (having no interest in investment in production because the returns are too low, and whether the goyim work or not or live or die is immaterial to them)have grown more and more unequal and impoverished. With China leading the BRICS into world economic dominance, it is now a matter of life or death for the Judeo-Western Empire of Eternal Exceptionalism to destroy the competition, as they always have done in the past. No Jewish plutocrat or Sabbat Goy Toy collaborator is going to play second fiddle to any ‘Asiatic’. The West’s paranoia and supremacism always meant that the rise of China et al would end in war. The failed Colour Revolution in Beijing in 1989 was as close as they have gotten, but since 2011 and the phony ‘Arab Spring’, the West has been slowly tightening the noose on China, Russia, Venezuela and Brazil, with India no doubt hedging its bets. As Paul Craig Roberts has observed, these evil maniacs are prepared to risk nuclear war, and they very well might get it.

Obama is pushing a kind of double propaganda trick. He keeps repeating two claims:
– Russia is responsible for the MH17 disaster
– Russia is destabilizing Ukraine
If someone questions the responsibility of Russia for the disaster he will defend his demands for sanctions by referring to the destabilization. If someone questions the destabilization he will turn up the hate propaganda about the “murderers of the MH17” – implying that anyone defending them is bad.
It is a classical propaganda trick.
@вот так 01 I’m not saying they are innocent puppets, but pointing out where the center of control is based on historical evidence. Genocidal zionism is just a one head of that ugly hydra of an ancient old cult of Baal/Moloch striving for total world dominance where the “Learned Elders” control the rest – their shills, useful idiots, “neutrals” and enslaved opposition. Judaism, Talmudism, Mormonism, wahhabism/takfirism/salafism, christianity, especially the Western branch based on many falsifications, also bolshevism, communism, maoism, nazism, fascism are the other heads of that evil creature forming very effective tool of control via these religions/ideologies. On the surface very appealing, promising justice, better life, peace – but at the core are satanic perversion of these values using pedophilia, human sacrifice to cement the bonds among the top rulers.
Every country plays its role in the empire of evil – the US is the military/financial (Petrodollar) muscle, Israel/Wahhabis instigating continuous war in the ME to create “controlled chaos” thus securing enormous profits for the oil and financial behemots and suppressing human development in the region, and also sponsoring and supervising terrorism around the globe. Zionist have carte blanche to play the “holocaust victim” card to blackmail and censor any dissent, wahhabis distort Islam to create the “clash of the civilisation”. Other countries of the commonwealth contribute as ordered by London with their propaganda machines, military, fake “independent” voice from “freedom and democracy loving” countries, also voices in the UN.
It’s crucial to win over indoctrinated people under that evil spell and make them “awake and aware” members of humanity.
Sea blockade of England would probably do also…
Putin was trying to avoid this fate by sacrificing the people of Donbas.
What a poor choice.
Psychopaths only respond to a credible threat.
The leaders of the West are psychopaths.
It has everything to do with diverting attention from the ceaseless war crimes in Gaza.
The hysterical drumbeat to confrontation reminds me of this interview I saw back in March when this whole mess was getting started. The money line was this:
Sinclair added, “We’re in a hell of a mess. If the world drops the ‘Petrodollar,’ we’ll have a hot war in a week. We will go to war over the Petrodollar.”
Here’s the interview, watch especially around 14 minutes.

re Daniel Rich MH17 debris field.
Best way of preventing independent analysis of that site is by making bloody sure it is subject ot heavy fighting. The rebels offered safe passage but the Ukies launched an all out offensive to claim it “to make it safe”.
Cui Bono, anyone?
Eagle eye
At least it proves the western media is all controlled by the same people. That is the only explanation for such a concerted attack.

@Larchmonter445 03:39
makes a very convincing argument.
your intention to write an analysis of a US attack on Russia is noted, which will presumably address some of the tactics raised.
the opinion about the black sea would seem a bit dubious.
