15.06.2015 Military Report of Novorossia

Have you ever noticed that the Ukies never claim civilians killed over on their side of the battle lines. They barely report their own dead. Though now we have the two SBU brothers who have come over to the militia side and tell of the true numbers killed in Iloviask and Debaltcevo.

Yet, dead civilians are of no concern to the nazis. What they say is the militia is responsible for all deaths.

That’s the party line from washington. They do the same with Syria. Assad killed everyone.

Off topic ,but also interesting story about a Snowden escape

In today’s headlines, we’ve been greeted with
news from the increasingly-Orwellian UK
government, that Ed Snowden’s encrypted
files have been cracked by the Russian and
the Chinese, forcing the clandestine services
of the UK to recall their agents from “hostile
countries,” albeit noting that “there was no
evidence of anyone being harmed.”

This announcement was made, in conjunction
with PM David Cameron’s promise to enact a
swathe of new security measures, including
more power to monitor Britons’ communications
and online activity, which critics have rightly
dubbed the “Snooper’s Charter.”

In this film, Sarah Harrison, the WikiLeaks
legal advisor who helped Snowden make his
escape, she claims that no such information
was willfully given to either the Chinese or the
Russians by Snowden. Harrison says, “I’d stake
my life on it.”

Moreover, Snowden had, as a security measure
released his sensitive computers to the journalists
who met him in Hong Kong. One of these was
destroyed under the watch of British Intelligence
officials at the office of the UK Guardian in July
of 2013, as seen, here.

Many people have wondered how Ed Snowden
was able to escape Hong Kong and evade
capture for 39 days at Moscow’s
Sheremetyevo Airport, before finally being
granted temporary asylum in Russia. Some find
these circumstances to be fishy.

The film reconstructs this period, using cinema
verite’ and candid interviews with a remarkable
cast, including Michael Hayden, former Director
of the National Security Agency.

‘Terminal F/Chasing Edward Snowden’ by
Danish Director, Poul-Erik Heilbuth was just
released in April 2015 and it’s received virtually
no publicity, unlike the Academy-Award-winning
‘Citizenfour,’ which received lots of publicity,
thanks to the ample funding enjoyed by Poitras
and Greenwald, in their First Look venture with
Pierre Omidyar.

This film was produced with an EU crew but
apart from the Danish credits, this version is
entirely in English. It tells the white-knuckle
story of how a combination of savvy out-
maneuvering by the WikiLeaks staff and its
supporters plus a fortuitous mistake in the US
Goverment’s extradition papers (they flubbed
his middle name!) enabled Ed Snowden to escape
capture in Hong Kong and to board a plane to
Russia, alongside WikiLeaks legal advisor, a
young Australian, Sarah Harrison.

Using a mix of what often appear to be real
cellphone grabs of the actual scenes at the
airports and not reenactments, in combination
with compelling interviews, this film
documents the details of their escape, as told
by Ed Snowden, Sarah Harrison, Julian Assange,
Glenn Greenwald, Snowden’s father and a
remarkably candid Michael Hayden.

After escaping from Hong Kong (who really
didn’t want anything to do with the situation
and were all too happy to let him escape),
Snowden’s deactivated passport prevented him
from boarding his connecting flight to Cuba, for
which his tickets were checked through.
Snowden has remarked that it was an odd
choice, for the State Department to choose to
strand him in Russia, with whom relations have
only been getting increasingly strained, ever
since.

At first, Russia’s President Putin, likely, none
too thrilled about this hot potato, left the two
of them to fend for themeselves in the transit
area of Terminal F, at Moscow’s International
airport. The two escapees were given a
windowless room, with two bunk beds, where
they stayed without running water for over a
month, until Putin finally decided to grant
Snowden temporary asylum. This was
extended last year and now expires in August
of 2017.

This period of limbo at the airport coincided
with a state meeting of gas-producing countries
in Moscow, which included Bolivia.

Since Venezuela, Ecuador and Nicaragua had
already offered asylum to Snowden, the
Russian press asked Bolivian President, Evo
Morales if he would be willing to offer asylum
to Snowden. He said, “Yes, why not?”

His casual response led to the US State
Department making a flurry of calls to its
European allies, ordering them to not allow
Morales’ plane to refuel on his return to South
America, as planned. In fact, his Presidential
plane was escorted to the ground by the French
military and a search was conducted of his
aircraft, where there was no Snowden to be
found – the second of two major
embarrassments to the US National Security
establishment in a week.

In addition, Snowden and his dad reflect on
another gonzo plan, hatched by the FBI, to
take a small CIA plane (normally used to
transport targets of “Extraordinary rendition,”
to be tortured offshore), using the father as bait,
in a cockamamie cowboy plan to kidnap Ed onto
the rendition plane…and presumably, to leave
his father stranded at Sheremetyevo Airport.
Although that plan didn’t jump off, it is believed
that the plane managed to arrive there and was
lurking around.

‘Terminal F/Chasing Edward Snowden’ is a
compelling European docudrama. The apparent
intimacy that the director was able to evoke from
his hard-to-access interviewees is impressive.

Although the Jon Rappaports of the world
would still maintain that the whole Snowden
melodrama is a limited hangout of unfathomable
proportions, I can’t help but be impressed with
Snowden’s manifest patriotism and righteousness,
whenever I see him speak. Yes, I can understand
why Hayden and other members of the clandestine
agencies would see Snowden as a traitor and
arrogant beyond belief. However, Ed claims, here
that he was hardly alone, among his former peers,
in his misgivings about how NSA was slipping into
a fatal pit of lawlessness.

He says of Hayden, “What kind of man is this?
How can he justify the violation of the rights of
an entire nation, without even a law to lean on?
How do we come back from a situation, in which
the most senior officials in a Democracy are acting
against the interests of the public – in secret?”
