The dramatic developments in Syria have somewhat overshadowed the events in Nazi-occupied Ukraine. True, nothing truly ‘major’ has happened there, but that in itself is a major development and a case of “no news is good news”.
Banderastan:
Remember how close we were to a Ukronazi attack just a few months or weeks ago?
That attack never materialized.
This is, I submit, major news and something which most of us did not dare hope for. After all, the Ukronazis had assembled a very large (some would say “bloated”) force all along the line of contact, the rhetoric out of Kiev was even worse than usual and all the signs were that the junta was poised to attack any day. Then two things happened.
First, it is pretty clear that Merkel and Hollande told Poroshenko that if he launched yet another attack he would most likely be defeated and that they could not rescue him with a “Minsk 3”.
Second, US and Ukrainian military analyst probably told Poroshenko that the Ukronazi military simply did not have what it takes to defeat the Novorussians. Translated in political terms, that meant that a junta attack on the Donbass would not be strong enough to force Russia to intervene directly and openly, and that just made the entire exercise futile.
[Sidebar and caveat: since we are dealing with maniacal and hate-driven individuals, we have to assume that they are capable of, quite literally, anything at any time. From blowing up a Ukrainian power station to launching a “reconquest” of Crimea. All I am saying is that so far no attack has materialized. I am making no claims about the future. In fact, I fully expect the Nazi regime in Kiev to go down in a last big orgy of violence].
If anything, the amazing effectiveness of a really small Russian Air Force contingent in Syria (not to mention cruise missile attacks) probably convinced even the most delusional Ukronazi that they were not fighting the Russian military in the Donbass, because if they were the war would be over in 24 hours.
Predictably, the military (and economic!) impotence of the junta triggered a political “compensatory reaction” which manifested itself in a series of amazingly dumb and self-defeating moves: first the Right Sector thugs closed down the border with Crimea (thereby successfully concealing a petty mobster war for the profits generated by the imposition of transit/import/export taxes as a “patriotic” move). And then, not to be undone by his Nazi allies, Poroshenko banned all Russian carriers from flying in Ukrainian airspace. Some have said that such moves were hurting the Ukrainian economy. Well, while this is obviously true, I would also argue that it makes no difference to an economy which is already in free-fall anyway. The junta basically doesn’t care anymore about the Ukronazi economy simply because it is beyond rescue.
It sure looks to me like the Ukronazis are ‘coasting’, like a car which has run out of gas. Yes, there is still a momentum making it move further, but no more energy.
The AngloZionist Empire
My feeling is that the Empire is rapidly losing interest in the entire Ukrainian plan. Remember what started it all? A desire to “punish Russia” for the fact that she stopped the imminent US attack on Syria. And now, instead of punishing Russia, the US is desperately trying to retain some kind of grip on the entire Middle-East. Of course, there is always hell to pay for stupid political decisions, but Obama & Co. clearly hoped that it would not happen or, if it did, it would happen somewhere far down the line. Turns out that payday is today.
Furthermore, consider this: while the US definitely triggered the Ukrainian crisis, they never saw the Syrian crisis coming and, as a result, they are not scrambling to come up with some kind of response. I very much doubt that the US will impose a no-fly zone over any part of Syria, if only because Russia will never allow a UNSC Resolution to authorize that (the Russians still remember how a no-fly zone Resolution ended up in NATO bombing Libya). Could the USA do so *without* a UNSC Resolution? Maybe, but that would be extremely dangerous both politically and militarily.
There are rumors that the US is trying to shape some kind of force with the Kurds to take Raqqa. Maybe, but I don’t see the US sending boots on the ground so any such operation could easily end up with the Kurds working with the Syrians and Iranians.
My personal feeling is that IF the Syrian army is really successful and, for example, manages to free Aleppo (which is currently encircled) then the “friends of Syria” will immediately ask for a “peace conference” à la Minsk-1 and Minsk-2 to save al-Qaeda/ISIS from a total defeat. Remember how the Empire negotiated with the Bosnian Serbs without speaking them? Or how the Ukronazis are now supposed to speak with the Novorussians, but never do so? This time around, the AngloZionists will probably try to organized a conference in which they will try to get the Russians to negotiate on behalf of the Syrians or, failing that, have Syrian government delegation which would not include Assad personally. I sure hope that this time around Russia will not allow such utter nonsense to take place. In fact, I hope that the Russians launch their OWN peace conference which would invite the Syrian government, of course, but also Iran (and Iraq). That would be far more productive.
Bottom line: if the terrorists lose too badly – expect a AngloZionist diplomatic push to rescue them from total defeat.
What that means for the junta in Kiev is that Uncle Sam is scrambling with a much more important crisis than the civil war in the Ukraine. Not only that, but Uncle Sam might have to sit down the the Russians and “play nice”. Even more important is the fact that the US military will now have to put a lot of effort into monitoring the situation in the entire Middle-East and be prepared for any contingencies. So while all sorts of “cooperative” activities between the US and Banderastan will continue, if only for political reasons, the real focus of US military efforts will be elsewhere.
The US colony of Europe
Well, the Europeans are still as clueless as always. Add to this the refugee crisis and it becomes obvious that they have no stomach for a major confrontation with Russia. Yes, I know, the EU Parliament is still busy issuing various threats (the latest one being over the Russian intervention in Syria!), but the reality is that blowing hot air is all that the Europeans are capable of. That, and really dumb economic decisions, such as the Polish moves to stop purchasing Russian gas (I will post an article about that fiasco soon).
There is a lot of disappointment in Kiev with the EU and this is understandable: the EU did promise a lot, but it delivered nothing, nothing at all (except a few “gay pride” parades). The UK delivered a few old APCs, the Poles and Lithuanians delivered a lot of hot air and Germany and France basically told Poroshenko to “cool it”. Nothing much for a Europe which made it sound like the Ukraine would join the EU in the near future. Poroshenko is now so desperate over it all that he had to declare that the EU “could not survive” without the Ukraine.
By all accounts, the pressure is building on Hollande and Merkel to get something done in regards to Russia as both the German and French economy are directly suffering form the (illegal) sanctions the EU introduced against Russia. And yet, since the US will never allow any sanctions to be lifted, I don’t expect the EU leaders do take any action soon. And since no western politician can be expected to admit that he/she was wrong, I don’t expect any public u-turn by anybody in Europe. But what we might see is a slow erosion of the anti-Russian camp combined with a equally slow decrease of “love” for the Nazi occupied Ukraine and the junta which runs it.
Conclusion: a shifting center of gravity
The war in the Ukraine is really only a battle in a much larger war between Russia and the USA and, I would argue, to civilizational and developmental models. As in any battle/war the center of gravity has now shifted from the Ukraine to Syria and the entire Ukrainian theater is now becoming what the Russians refer to as a “battle of local significance”. Of course, this can also rapidly change again. For example, if the current Syrian army offensive (which, by Russian accounts, is less than spectacular) gets bogged down into positional/trench warfare again, or if, say there is an uprising in Odessa or a coup in Kiev, then the center of gravity will shift right back to the Ukraine. But right now the Ukraine is a sideshow to the “main action” in Syria. That is very bad news for the junta as time is most definitely not on the Nazi side and every passing day makes the situation of the Nazi-occupied Ukraine even worse. In contrast, Russia can wait, even for a long time.
As I have said that many times here, Russia needs peace (in the sense of absence of a major war) more than anything else as every passing day now make the USA (and their allies) weaker and Russia (and her allies) stronger: when time is on your side, you want to use that time to your biggest advantage. The way Russia waited until everything lined up before intervening in Syria is a good example of the importance of “playing the clock” as the expression goes in the world of chess.
Finally, I also notice with a mix of amazement and delight that in many comments sections of the Internet Putin is becoming more and more respected, if not always liked. Even those who dislike him seem to admit that he is a brilliant player and a great statesman, especially in contrast to Obama who seems to be weak, clueless, impotent and generally pathetic. While, in a way, this is dangerous as it can push Obama to prove that he is a “real man” and “tougher than Putin” and make him do something really stupid, it is also the proof that slowly but surely the demonization of Putin by the western propaganda machine is having a hard time and that the Internet is having its effect on the public opinion.
Just an anecdote in conclusion: a fried of my wife (male, White, Southern Baptism, NRA member, US patriot) watched Putin’s speech at the UN and told her that “Putin sounds more like a defender of US values than any of our politicians“. Not only do I fully agree with him, but I am amazed that such a typical TV-watching “loyal American” would openly say that. This shows the level of disgust so many people in the USA have for those who rule over them.
As for the UK, according to a recent poll, 71% of Britons support the Russian operation in Syria.
Amazing, no?
The Saker
A good article and ‘Putin for 2016’ sounds good to me!
This from a senior russian analyst …. Vladimir Kozin:
http://www.voltairenet.org/article189021.html
KALIBrating the foe. how 26 cruise missiles changed the world.
Putin starts out way ahead simply by being a human being, not a carefully selected robopath from a Western system that has steadily purged all thinking, rational, humane people, in favour of Sabbat Goy stooges, ignorant and gullible devotees of the Free Market religion, and ‘suppositories of wisdom’, as our late, unlamented, PM Abbott characterised it, inserted high up Uncle Satan’s fundamental orifice. The sheer poverty of intellect, morality and character in current Western ‘elites’ is appalling, and frightening.
I don’t think the analysis is particularly accurate. For one, the missiles are not hypersonic, but they do have a supersonic terminal phase. Second, while the use of the missiles does send a strong message that the Russia is capable of exerting force throughout the MidEast region, the technology itself is no surprise to the US; they absolutely can shoot these out of the sky en route to their targets (although I can’t speak to their capabilities for a Mach 2.9 terminal dive).
It would be fun to have “Putin for President” stickers to paste on things.
They can be had.

Not a bad idea, actually.
Bravo! Fantastic article as usual.
The Russians, Iranians and the SAA have to find a solution for the anti tank TOW missiles that America has so generously distributed to the terrorists. It may yet turn out to be the stinger equivalent for this war.
GRADS work very well against TOWS. It’s really hard to hold them steady and sight a TOW (wire guided system) while you’re being torn to shreds and incinerated by GRADS.
The notion of tanks as front line artillery won’t work in many locations.
Sustained GRAD work is what they need.
Maybe move Givi and the Somali battalion to Syria to give them some lessons.
You can’t fire grads onto a TOW on the top of a roof, you will shredd the whole town.
I don’t really know what you can do against TOWs, APS on the tanks? But SAA does not have any APS on their tanks, it looks like they barely have any Reactive armor.
You might want to check out Chechnya, circa 2000. Grozny was virtually leveled. If Russia did that to Russia, they will do it to Syria.
This isn’t PC video game being played, Anonymous10,000.
It seems that Russia has an answer to these TOWs: the Shtora-1. Valentin Vasilescu has an interesting article on the subject. In his view, Russia is equipping the SA with these protective equipments to install on the T90-MS. Here is an short excerpt:
“Jusqu’à l’apparition de bombardements russes en Syrie, l’armée nationale syrienne avait subi de lourdes pertes infligées à ses blindés par les rebelles islamistes « modérés », armés de missiles antichar BGM-71 TOW fournis par les États-Unis.
Le Shtora-1 est un équipement russe électro-optique actif de protection des blindés, spécialement conçu pour neutraliser le principal missile antichar de la dotation de l’armée américaine, le BGM-71 TOW. La Russie a maintenant commencé à distribuer une quantité impressionnante de ce matériel à l’armée syrienne. Le Shtora-1 brouille le faisceau laser ou infrarouge du système de guidage des missiles et leur fait manquer leurs cibles. Il brouille également les télémètres laser, les empêchant ainsi d’effectuer des mesures correctes de la distance qui les sépare de leurs cibles. Cet équipement est monté sur les chars russes T-90 MS, les véhicules de combat d’infanterie BMP-3M et d’autres blindés des forces terrestres de l’armée russe.”
Here is the link to the original article:

shtora-1 in action
http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=54f_1354029628
SAA doesn’t have any APS, and if Russia has not given it to them already, I doubt they will. Don’t know why really, without any anti-TOW protection it must be really hard to advance.
It’s going to be interesting to watch the Russian/Iranian tactics against the TOWs. As long as you are not in the battlefield, it’s interesting, else it’s life and death!
The Iranians used massed human wave attacks against the Iraqis in the war in the 80s. That might be the answer this time as well rather than anything technological. We’ll see.. Thankfully Syria is not mountainous, and there are enough infantry available. Once you choke off the cia terrorists by cutting off their supply routes, it might just be artillary bombardments and waiting for them to starve/run out of ammo, that might win it.
The Western regions are very mountainous.The Syrians need to secure those areas thoroughly first.But then the rest of the country is mostly open land,desert or semi-desert.One plus is that the mountainous areas are home to much of the pro-government Shia and Christian population.So while the fighting should be very rough there.They should be able to secure the regions.From then on its easier to drive the terrorists back.But that fighting to secure the West will be a lot of savage “grunt work”.Digging the rats out,section by section.It should be able to be done.But it’ll be bloody work,and high with casualties.
““Putin sounds more like a defender of US values than any of our politicians“
this is actually true, because the West never really possess much of the often touted “Western Values”. It has always been mere marketing/advertising ever since Columbus.
On another topic: as if to resolve all doubt that the UK is a police state, see below:
https://www.rt.com/uk/318647-gchq-snooping-ministers-lords/
I am shocked, shocked I tell ya, nah. From an Empire to a sniveling, snooping poodle, all in the space of a couple of generations.
Not quite. The British Empire is still alive and well, it just went underground, because that was the smart move. That’s the reason the sun never sets upon it; because the sun never rises upon it either. It’s the undead now – Endless. Forever. Night….
‘Poodle’ works really well for public consumption, though. Makes it seem so harmless.
Ah yes the underground zombie empire trick.
It looks like after last week meeting Merkel, Putin, Holland
suddenly the old Zio – Punk Juncker had no another choice just to start to maneuver to another direction because Russia doesn’t listen to his lies
https://www.rt.com/op-edge/318143-juncker-eu-russia-relations/
Thank you Saker – hear hear :).
Something also in the news today to show the desperation of the Nazi’s and chocie boy….
“President Petro Poroshenko approved a new ‘Strategy for National Patriotic Education of Children and Youth, 2016-2020’. The new program seeks to inculcate in youth the ‘ideals and values’ of the fascist collaborationist Ukrainian Insurgent Army, those of the Maidan revolution and of Kiev’s military operation in eastern Ukraine” :
http://sputniknews.com/europe/20151014/1028503060/ukraine-education-ultranationalism-indoctrination.html
The Nazi’s and Chocie boy really want to entrench themselves.
Rgds,
Veritas
What’s next-the ‘Poroshenko Youth’? I wouldn’t let Yatsferatu near them, however.
I’d vote for him!
WHY the Pendejos del mundo say ISIS Terrorists. They are U.S. /CIA Terrorists as the whole world knows. Why to follow the lies if you saying the truth.
?Comprendes Mendez, cuando explico Federico? Just do it pendejo.
Merkel and Hollande did not originate the idea that the next offensive would be a disaster.
Putin spoke outright that it would be very short-lived and disastrous.
There are weapons in the rear the militia has already hinted at and which the West understands is there to overwhelm the Ukies if they launch an offensive.
And any offensive is not a single-spearhead. It would be at least three-prolonged along a 300-500 kilometer front.
Thus, it would be an ‘all in’ offensive. Five hours later, Ukraine’s military would cease to exist.
That is what Putin told the dolts from EU. Then, like in Minsk, the Paris talks turned bad for Porky.
Then, missiles were launched from the Caspian to elucidate for the slow learners that Putin would use any weapon system in the Donbass conflict if needed. Until now, weapons have been proportionate. There are many Russian systems of artillery held back. But Putin indicated the gloves would come off.
There would be no saving special operators, trainers and advisers as at Debaltcevo.
So, what option is left to the EU, US and Kiev?—
—Try to torture Crimea with a blockade is their “offensive”.
They will also use the new sniper rifles to try to kill Givi, Motorola and Zakh. They are obsessed with those men. Shelling Givi’s old HQ indicates the desperation and obsession.
Ukraine may also become a dumping grounds for ISIS fighters. If that begins to metastasize, you can be sure Kadyrov’s units will be sent to clean them out.
Ukraine is far from over, even if the junta falls and is replaced with EU handlers. The US will never give it up. It’s the womb of the Hegemon’s most dependable psychopaths, with a trustworthy nazi spawning farm always ready to produce for proxy and direct wars. It has been so for eighty years.
And it has been the centre piece of US strategy to overturn Russia. 5 billion in 20 years and that is just from the State Dept. Doesn’t incl Pentagon or CIA funds or NGO’s. Look for the flawed mh17 report to be used in propaganda war to send NATO into Ukraine.
Also the SCS coming up again. Not sure if it has been authorised yet but US intend to sail within the 12 mile limit of the Chinese islands/bases in the next week or so.
Not sure what will happen there. If China is not ready I guess they will complain but let it pass for now.
If they are ready to go, then they will give the ships fair warning and then sink them.
China consider those islands sovereign territory, same as the mainland.
They are ready they will be sunk. Hopefully, China can call in some of it’s loan’s and take the ships as collateral. Something along those lines or it will be ww3 full on.
RR
highly unlikely, even if they are “ready”. Chinese really do not like to start wars, despite the impression given by the West.
Alan,
Agree.
But there will be punishment. The US does not have the copyright on assymmetry.
I have been unable to find the article – I think it was in a Chinese paper that they would go to war to protect their sovereignty over this issue.
A quote here from the Chinese foreign minister.
http://www.businessinsider.com.au/china-is-as-hard-as-a-rock-when-it-comes-to-reclaiming-the-south-china-sea-2015-5
After a private meeting with U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry, China’s Foreign Minister Wang Yi showed no sign of backing down despite Kerry urging China to take action to reduce tension in the South China Sea.
“With regard to construction on the Nansha islands and reefs, this is fully within the scope of China’s sovereignty,” Wang told reporters, using the Chinese name for the Spratly islands.
“I would like to reaffirm that China’s determination to safeguard its sovereignty and territorial integrity is as hard as a rock,” he said. “It is the people’s demand of the government and our legitimate right.”
Wang made the comments at a joint news conference with Kerry, who is on a two-day visit to China likely to be dominated by deepening concern about Beijing’s ambitions in the South China Sea.
I am relying on Chinese statements for this conclusion not western propaganda.
Interesting that Ben Carson’s recent rise in polls for POTUS shows just how aligned he is with the Elites desire to provide North America’s oil to Europe. Maybe Trump not so much? Interesting that Hillary is back tracking on American Pipeline, but still wants a No-Fly Zone in Syria. True Bengahzi story will never come out, imo.
I can’t see the US bringing in another African-American President for the foreseeable future again.The disaster of Obama soured most people on that idea.The “liberal’s won’t vote for a Republican ,black or not.And the hard-right Conservatives would “freak” at the very thought of it.No matter if he was ultra-conservative on the issues they like.
To be fair, Obama has only been a disaster in the sense that for some time and from here on in until some sort of major system change, all American presidents have been and will have to be disasters. The key domestic constituencies for gaining and retaining office are disastrous for the country as a whole, and the foreign policy objectives some of those elites require are not attainable and particularly not attainable using the methods others of those elites are embedded in and so will insist on. Any adoption of more realistic means and outlook (diplomacy, multilateralism) requires letting go of the basic US position (the United States owns the world) and letting go of the military-industrial-police-state-corruption complex which has gained so much power and been so deeply intertwined with pushing that basic position; neither of these is feasible.
No American president currently can achieve much of what he must claim to want. Disaster is built into the system.
I totally agree there.I wasn’t saying the thinking on voters part’s was right.But that it is there.Obama started out with a great deal of “cover” because of being African-American (I know that sounds strange).A huge number of people didn’t want him to fail.On the other side just the opposite.They did everything they could to see he failed.But still,enough supported him to re-elect him (lots of reasons for that.Brain-dead opponents mainly).But his failure is so plain to the majority now that most of the “cover” is gone.And that has harmed the chances of any other African-American candidate for President,for a longtime (my opinion at least).
Yeah, I can go along with that. Also, I’ve tended to think that part of what got Obama in was a sort of ticking-the-checkbox kind of feeling, like “See? The US isn’t racist, we can elect a black president, so there. Well, thank God that’s over with, now we never need to do it again.” With Hilary, they can check off the “woman” box and go back to white males feeling comfortable about it.
Agree with The Saker about the positive turn of the overall strategic scenario.
However, there is every possibility that the AngloZionist Fascists of USA/NATO/5-EYES will equip all the Sunni Wahabi terrorist groups with lots of sophisticated arms-ammunitions in Middle-East, Caucasus and Central Asia to continue destruction of Eurasian landmass and destabilize Russia, China, India.
Similarly, there is every possibility that Sunni Wahabi terrorist groups will create new bases in central and east Europe with help from neo-Nazi gangs as well as NATO governments to create long-term ‘crusade’ against Russia. (since everything is outsourced in modern/post-modern economy nowadays, catholic/ protestant aristocrats will be happy to outsource the war against orthodox civilization to Sunni Wahabi fundamentalists as a business operation)
Straight-Bat, no need to throw up any googlies. You have it pretty correct, I’d say. The Real Evil Empire will destroy the world before giving up its control over it. The use of the Internet to ‘incentivise’ proto- and actualised psychopaths into murderous, barbaric,death-squads like Daash means that the human race is facing a scourge like the armies of the undead that the popular imagination has thrown up with eerily prescient frequency lately. When one counts up the death-squads the US has created to do its dirty work, from the foreign proxies like the Nicaraguan Contras, Colombian para-militaries, Operation Phoenix, Operation Condor, UNITA, RENAMO, Azov Battalion, Daash etc, you can see that the USA has put a great deal of effort, over decades, into producing human monsters to order, to unleash on humanity. And with their own Special Forces death-squads operating in over one hundred countries, humanity is going to have to wade through blood if it is ever to be rid of this diabolic force.
Lovely Missive.
1. Putin for President 2016, is another approach to forging an Alternative and Libertarian (and ironically) Sovereign American Republic, by expressing our gratitude to the Russian Nation and their leaders, principally, their President, Vladimir Putin.
2. We could write a petition to the Russian Congress – asking them to share their President with us, in case he wins the upcoming 2016 election.
3. We will then begin a write-in campaign for Vladimir Putin. When informed that his candidacy would be unconstitutional by American law, our response would be that the American government has not been Constitutional since November 22, 1963. Dieudonné for VP? Cindy McKinny?).
4. We The People will make every effort to ensure a fair and accurate count of the votes on november 2016.
5. Our platform will include a “Committee of Elders,” including former Congressman Ron Paul, and President Jimmy Carter, who would conduct American foreign policy (a key point of of which would be Ron Paul’s demand that all American Soldiers be brought home). Joan Baez would become the Ambassador to the UN.
*All those from this website & others interested in registering a voice of resistance to Zionist American Terrorism, and support for the re emergence of a Sovereign American Republic, and who believe this approach might provoke some excellent free thought, as well as good old fashioned fun, simply get cracking!!! Print up stickers, posters, leaflets (say what you want – whatever you feel is appropriate). No need for centralized direction. Peace and Love!
Did I say, Get Cracking?
For the Democratic Republics!
IMAGINE
Sorry to burst everyone’s balloon, but Putin cannot become president of the Outlaw Empire because its constitution forbids it. yeah, yeah, I know, the Outlaw Empire’s named that because it doesn’t obey its own fundamental law. But in this case, it will be invoked. And that’s too bad because none of the politicos attempting to gain their party’s nomination would even qualify as Putin’s understudy. I direct folks to this item about last night’s “debate” for its long and uncensored comment thread where the truth about Sanders and Clinton is revealed, http://www.commondreams.org/news/2015/10/14/bernie-and-hillary-duel-democrats-debate
Outlaw Historian:
The Oligarchs who control this nation have long ago ceased to respect our Constitution. I pose the option of supporting a Statesman of the caliber of Vladimir Putin for America’s highest office,
1. Regardless of laws.
2. Regardless of possibilities.
3. Regardless of gravity.
4. Regardless of difficulty.
Because:
1. It builds bonds of Brotherhood and Sisterhood between our nations.
2. It allows us to express our utter disgust at those Zionist American Oligarch Terrorists who illegally hold power in our country, and loot it of its wealth and honor, and endanger the world with the threat of militarist conflicts.
3. Have you seen our Congress lately?
4. Because it is a clear Alternate Dual-Power & In-Their-Face kind of resistance that shows no fear.
5. Because Vladimir Putin is a Stand-Up-Guy (as we say in Brooklyn), and far overshadows the scum pretending to campaign for the powerless (‘presidential’) crown that serves only the Oligarchs.
6. Because it might be a hell of a Kick-Ass-Fun campaign that has some potential to take off.
7. Because we respect and like Vladimir Putin.
8. Because Ron Paul is not running for the Presidency.
9. Do you have any idea who could be the VP candidate?
10. Because it is the best idea we at the AC can come up with at the moment.
Equality and Reconciliation!
Peace and Love!
For the Democratic Republics!
IMAGINE
Peter, imagination aside, I think you should get behind Rand Paul..He stands for his father’s principles….
Ann,
Short cuts will not work.
We like Rand Paul. Like is a very powerful emotion. He is not as good as his father; but who is?
I have been in his office.
He is being frozen out of the counter-insurgent 1-dimensional electoral Circus by the Oligarchs. Many years from now, he will thank the Oligarchs for this one kindness from them (even though unintentional).
If Rand Paul would announce an Alternate Government, (restoration of the American Constitution and “the Republic for Which it Stands,”) electoral campaign (which not even his dad would), we could support him. Rand Paul must divorce himself -morally- from the imperialist zionist Oligarchs who have occupied America.
Those are our demands. Even now, we defend him against infamy, and, if we can, against early death, but he must separate himself from the Oligarchs.
On another point about Rand Paul; he, as with his illustrious father, when he speaks to College Students, (and the Pauls are among only a handful who bother), always treats the students as friends and fellow citizens. The Pauls definitely represent Good against Evil.
Your friend,
IMAGINE
Hi Peter, yes, I watch Ron Paul every night now on the Liberty Report. I really like it. I don’t know much about the economics of the Libertarians, but I’d be willing to try it. (sadly I live in Canada) And I just love Ron Paul as a human being, and Daniel McAdams.
Yes, the oligarchs are still ruling Rand Paul’s campaign finances I suppose…
But as I said before, this idea of an alternative election … there was something in Eastern Canada tried, an alternative Court Hearing – Trial – about 9/11. Very famous judges were flown in from all over the world…but it didn’t really have an effect.
by the way, are you having an alternative election ? Perhaps ‘going through the motions’ might have some kind of positive effect …. practice makes perfect they say…
And the Alternative Media, at least some, might support it ? Who’s running ? Ask Nadar and see if you can contact that ‘Forecast Trending’ guy….I forgot his name. He just had a big ‘do’ in Texas I think it was…he was interviewed on Ron Paul…and PCR was at that convention…did you hear about that ?
Ann,
Mulga,
I am convinced a Putin in 2016 write-in is an excellent Alternative Political start. It might help to jump-start an effective American resistance.
For VP, an American would be advisable. Former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney, (who was on the first Gaza Flotilla that attempted to aid the Palestinians), might be an excellent candidate.
I would think Syrian President al-Assad has his hands full at the moment.
If former Congressman Ron Paul was running an Alternate Government campaign for the American Presidency in 2016, then the Putin for American President approach would be unnecessary, or premature.
It is our responsibility to all the peoples of the world, to help birth an American resistance movement and to help restore the American Republic.
IMAGINE
so you and your people have to start asking alternative media to broadcast the alternative election.
I guess you could set up a little area beside election booths and have a choice..Putin for 2016
Did you see they have bumper stickers ? That very thing ?
Also, Facebook has a big following…
Peter, Assad for Veep, surely.
The USA already dropped a boat load of arms to “opposition forces” in Syria….that false flag in Turkey just before elections….Saudi and USA will not move from position that Assad must go. Which is not going to happen. As they lose in Syria expect terrorists attacks in Ukraine and the Stans to increase. There is no low as to how low down the Hegemon. Terror attacks on Russian soil to assassination attempts. Also, look for more economic strikes. I believe Glazyev plan and putting the economy on a war footing and max production for major war is in order. As Putin says, ” he will pursue peace as he prepares for war” I believe the steps I have outlined are already being undertaken. Protecting the economy with the new Swift and other measures against freezing Russia’s assets are ongoing or complete. Iran and Hezbollah need to supply more boots on the ground. The SAA is still really up against it in certain area’s. I do hope Iraq appeals directly to Russia for help and that it is accepted in accordance with International Law. This will bring an end to ISIS and the hegemon in at least those countries. Hopefully the US and KSA will implode along the way.
Thanks for this gem of an article. Love the humor and graphics. Of course when we’re winning it makes for optimism. The comments also answered a nagging question about the occupation of a tank crew with those nasty TOW’s proliferating.
I rest easier in my cabin with Putin at the helm as he secures the various loose cannons on the main deck. And it also seems that the Saker has returned with renewed vigor from his month long quasi-withdrawal.
Here in the US wilderness of dry-bone southern cal they’re talking of emergency preparations for a major El Nino, and we do need watering in more ways than one but gentle like alligator Florida. I’m grateful to this community for being a vineyard in this asphalt world and a sort of oasis in the desert of deserted traditional, if not aboriginal values.
Again, Putin to the rescue. In Club Orlov’s latest post, Putin has coined another new word at his UN speech masterpiece for the modern world: “nature-like technologies,” or some such phrase apparently difficult to adequately translate from the Russian.
I hope to visit my relatives in the midwest at Christmas who remind me of what the Saker’s wife’s friend’s response to Putin might be. Putin is probably no saint but if he ain’t then I don’t know any saint, and that’s saying a bit since I was raised Catholic and became a priest, trying like hell to be a saint but finding out that all the paint in the world can’t cover up for lack of a genuine life.
Thanks for reminding me once again that I need to get a life before I can comment on life, as this comment no doubt suggests. Cheers and chuckles.
Oh, I forgot; better go back and make paragraph breaks as an anon comment suggested. See old men can learn new tricks, like those ancient parchments which were so precious that they could not afford to waste that much space. I guess the internet has almost infinite space so no need to worry. How about six hundred paragraphs of three or four words each? See, there are limits after all; sort of like what Putin was getting at.
Dennis, I share your predicament as we dry out here, in Australia, too. The bushfires got to within one kilometre of us last year, and already the heat, for early spring, is unprecedented. I don’t think El Ninos and La Ninas are like what they were before, either. You look like either missing out on rain because of the huge heat anomaly in the north-east Pacific, or if a monster El Ninoish event crashes through, Noachite deluges. In any case, good luck.
Here is an interesting quote from the director of the Russian Institute of strategic studies Leonid Reshetnikov :
“- When someone speaks ironically about conspiracy theories I always say: “Look, the whole world history consists of conspiracies!”. But you should not be carried away with only these two names. There are influential people who are trying to make the world more manageable. National states are destroyed. Now they are tackling Europe. I consider this flow of refugees very suspicious – it is organized artificially. These flows consist primarily of young 30 year old men. Strong men! This is no coincidence. Europe is in for a fun ride”.
A very interesting interview. Full article can be read here :

I would love to see the neocons in D.C. try to explain why the US should back a peace accord in Syria in order to save Al-Qaeda and ISIS from defeat.
http://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2015/10/14/433404/Putin-Syria-Clinton-
US Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton has accused the Russian president of creating chaos in Syria by bombing terrorists there.
Clinton made the comments during the first Democratic presidential debate of this year held on Tuesday in Las Vegas, Nevada.
The former secretary of state said that she’d had some success dealing with former Russian President Dmitry Medvedev.
Not a surprise at all to see Medvedev was/is on her side.
Just to be sure she’s not delusional, we need a second opinion from Johnny Reb McCain.
The election campaign has just started.As I predict over and over,the winner will be the most Russophobic.And can articulate his/her hate-Russia/Putin the best and most often.They may get the flip-side of that though.A new poll in Russia shows 71% of Russians consider the US as their enemy.With only 4% saying the US was a friend.As someone posted on RT about that poll,”what are those 4% smoking”.
Clinton is proof positive that in the Exceptional Empire of Full Spectrum Affirmative Action, a ‘female’ can be as poisonously evil as any ‘male’. Her little song and dance when informed of Gaddaffi’s hideous death was the work of an evil psychopath, but I bet it went down well with her Zionazi controllers and enablers.
Agreed MM. In fact, you can scan the range of current female top appointees and find the same thing.
Mad Albright and her “the deaths of 500,000 Iraqi children was worth it” for example !! The Powers and Rice’s and Nulands and ……I could go on, but it’s getting close to tea time.
Psychopathy seems to be pretty evenly spread across the two genders, only that which is coupled with blood lust as in serial killers is more prevalent in males. But as long as someone else is doing the killing, well, to these gals, it’s just dandy dontchaknow.
Sorry to hear about your travails with heat and fires. Since I lived there myself for 4 decades including through the worst Hills fires around Adelaide ever, I can truly sympathise. I hope it passes soon.
Thanks, Isabella. The ‘female’ psychopath seems under-represented in literature. I suppose you might include Lady Macbeth, and after that I’m stumped. In Western politics and public life, however, ‘Women’s Lib’ seems to have amounted to not much (the difference in wages between the sexes continues to grow)but the opportunity to be just as Evil as the boys. The US over-achieves, as ever, with Clinton, Powers, the Rices, Albright, Nudelman etc to choose from. ‘You come a long way ‘Baby’??’. Not to forget Thatcher, of course. As you say, Albright’s insouciant attitude to those 500,000 tragedies was something that I cannot imagine even the Nazis equaling.
Further to my previous post I simply have to post another comment made by Leonid Reshetnikov :
” Perhaps, but not necessarily. What is important is that they are trying to destroy the traditional world, attitudes and values. They are consciously fighting with God.
In our country, many people call themselves atheists, but, in fact, they are not. They do not go to the church, but they have, as they say, the fear of God, they believe they are not allowed to do as they please. But those people we are talking about – they really think so. They deem themselves to be above everyone else, they are the rulers of the world and of the universe. They are the chosen ones. And God is no authority for them. All evil and negative characters on the world stage over the past three or four hundred years are of their making”.
This guy really has it spot on in my book.
Sounds to me like Reshetnikov is talking about two different kinds of god. A god by any other name is still god. The word god is problematic.
You say “The war in the Ukraine is really only a battle in a much larger war between Russia and the USA and, I would argue, to civilizational and developmental models”.
Partially true but if we go back to the Project for the new American century, the Wolfowitz doctrine etc etc we can see clearly that this is really about, as Chomsky put “the US intention to rule the world by force” in fact on behalf of the Rothschild bankers taking us to globalist fascist hell for the whole human race.
You probably know this but it needs to be spelt out. The list of countries smashed up by the west is all about this. It has nothing to do with Iraqi wmd or Iran’s non existent nuclear weapon programme . These countries were destroyed because they would not accept US diktat. The Syrian state must be smashed then it will be Iran’s turn, then Russia and China. People say the US invasion of Iraq was a disaster, not so. Chaos and mindless destruction a la Libya is just what they want – makes it easier to control the region. Same thing going on S. Americas eg Venezuela.
Remember these people are Satanists, chaos, hell, bloodshed are what they love.
Mr Putin ( I hope and pray) sees this and is standing up for international law, human decency, and sovereign rights of countries. Syria is the line in the sand. It really is about good versus evil and the naked exposure of western support for the terrorists shows this. The human race must not lose this one or we are all f*****d.
Bear in mind too de-dollarization, they know their empire of chaos is being eroded. I am hopeful as never before but also fearful, these Anglo Zionists are capable of anything – ANYTHING.
Best wishes and keep up the great work.
Charlie Greig
Charlie, the turning-point was Libya. The deliberate destruction of the most advanced society in Africa, and its delivery to the Hell of jihadist terror, was evil enough, but the manner in which Russia and China were tricked, and a ‘no-fly zone’ was turned instantly into a full terror-bombing campaign, seems to have finally woken Russia and China to their, and humanity’s, peril. I have long felt that the ruling Western elites represent pure Evil, now more than ever.
A nice summery.
Three points:
1)
Whereas Russia’s action in the theaters of Chechnya, South Ossetia and the Ukraine were reactive and defensive, Russia surprise move in Syria was on its own initiative. Big difference.
2)
The Russians wouldn’t have made their move in Syria without being 100% sure that their objectives – the most important one, i assume, being freeing Syria of all mercenary-terrorists of all colors – could be fully achieved.
3)
A failure in Syria is simply not an option. If needed, the Russian will step up their operation a notch or two. No question.
100% correct statements.
Could we get an article about the conflict in Syria? I heard different things. According to to wikipedia with sources SOHR(A lone sunni man with a internet connection living in an attic)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Northwestern_Syria_offensive_%28October_2015%29
The offensive has captured a number of towns. However I also hear about the offensive losing mass tanks to Al-qaida with TOW missiles, and if I read the translation correctly on cassad, the offensive is going “so so” and fortrus/RT and most pro-Russian sites upload videos of the offensive but says nothing about how it is really going on a strategic level.
Liz, if you look through the latest articles you will see plenty on Syria. I wouldn’t rely on wikipedia for your information. The comments under the Syrian articles have plenty of links to more reputable sources of information and Saker has also done an analysis.
The offensive is very early stages.
Up to now, there has been targeted strikes on NATO-proxies infrastructure, C&C, depots and supply lines.
The ground offensive by the SAA has been mostly to test the defenses of the Jihadis.
In the very near future, RuAF strikes will be stepped-up, and there will also be Iranian boots (Special Forces) on the ground (not sure to what degree) and also some Iraqi militias (experienced in fighting Jihadis)
I can also assure you that there will be more surprises from Russia/Iran and maybe even China in the near future.
In fact, as pathetic as the Kiev Junta really is, I would not consider it wholly improbable that they attempt one more offensive against Donbass.
Back to Syria, word is that today, the NATO proxies retreated on all fronts.
Mr.President Putin interview to Vladmir Solovyov where he dispels any doubts about a possible Afghanistan-2 in Syria:
Vladimir Solovyov: The Syrian army has now gone on the offensive. What is their likelihood of success?
Vladimir Putin: This depends above all on the Syrian army itself and on the Syrian authorities. We cannot commit ourselves to more than is reasonable and never have done so. I said from the start that our active operations on Syrian soil will be limited in time to the Syrian army’s offensive. Coming back to your earlier question, our task is to stabilise the legitimate government and establish conditions that will make it possible to look for political compromise.
http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/news/50482
Anyone know of an english site that follows the Syrian conflict without being very pro either side, just reporting what happens,the site can be pro-Russian but then it would need to be able to be self-critical and report negative things as well, like Cassad.
Liz, I have responded to your earlier post above. Why not read the Saker’s analysis along with multiple other links in the comments. South Front also produces lots of good information.
Liz, the Syrian war is not a civil war, rather an attack from outside forces who are finabncing and arming some l;ocal forces and some mercenary forces.. One side is attacking Syria, one side is defending Syria.
Work out who is who and then decide whether Syria should be destroyed or saved.
RE: western fascist interests moving from their Ukrainian war back to their Syrian war. Remember, the Ukraine has value to the ZPC/NWO of the sort Afghanistan does. It’s a strategy tool. The Ukraine is also far from Israel and is mainly of interest in a secondary nature.
Syria, on the other hand, is of great geopolitical interest to Israel/zionazis. Much more than baiting The Bear in the Ukraine. This switch back to Syria by the zionazis/nazis, I think, is due to the greater importance a destruction of Syria has to zionazi interests, and reflects their ability to disporportionally exert influence over the rest of the fascist oligarchy.
BTW, I do not believe the ZPC/NWO coup’ the Ukraine to “punish” Russia, as that grab has been a long time in the works and the failure of their original “orange” freak show needed to be “fixed”. The fascists war against Russia is many faceted and the Ukriane is one of the many vectors they are using. The fascists may have strategised their war from the Ukraine would distract Russia from supporting Syria effectively, but that is part of their overall strategy of hitting Russia from many angles.
Wes Clark – America’s Foreign Policy “Coup”
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=TY2DKzastu8
Very interesting food for thought — hats off, Saker. A few conclusions of mine:
The caption “They never evolved” should read: “They regressed”. I’d pick the caveman anyday over a drooling, panting Ukronazi punk. No “European values” for me, thank you.
“There is a lot of disappointment in Kiev with the EU and this is understandable: the EU did promise a lot, but it delivered nothing,”
Actually, this isn’t quite the case. The Eurocrats are, in fact, conspicuously frank and unambiguous about their priorities. The Association Agreement which Yanukovich rightfully refused to sign was an all-out colonial treaty, completely finishing off any remnants of Ukro national sovereignty. But the chauvinistic Ukro population — ditto the Greeks — didn’t want to let down these adorable Eurocrats. If anything, the Ukros’ carnival of fascist reaction at the Maidan was an eloquent, triumphant, and absolute rejection of plain human intelligence as well as any national self-respect whatsoever. Ditto the “radicalized” Social Democratic nonsense in Greece, with Spain (Podemos) and Britain (Corbyn) soon to follow suit.
The Syrian and Novorossian war theaters are related in the way outlined. If Syria with Russian support prevails over the psychotic Wahhabi scum and their Anglo-Zionazi sponsors, the outlook for the Ukronazis looks grim too. No MH17 disinformation blitz in the Ziomedia will be able to change that.
“Finally, I also notice with a mix of amazement and delight that in many comments sections of the Internet Putin is becoming more and more respected, if not always liked.”
Very true. And even more telling is the contempt and ridicule meted out to Western propaganda in general and its purveyors in particular. The dolts who believe the garbage have absolutely nothing of substance to say except that it must be so — to wit, backing it up with nothing more than a retarded, monarchist mindset.
“Putin sounds more like a defender of US values than any of our politicians“
Really? When did Putin subscribe to Pindo Exceptionalism, hatred, and total contempt of the Human race?
@Nussiminen, nearly all of your post is seriously good. Pity it ended with cynical (that’s never good, never productive) humor undercutting Saker’s final point, quoting his wife’s quoting of her American friend, and new appreciator of V Putin. I think we ought to welcome more opportunities for more such people to reach such conclusions, and not hinder the American making an honest declaration of a simple but important discovery, against steep MSM odds imposed on him, by insisting that all of his values must be evil. Which seems to suggest that he’s making a mistake of judgment, by definition and prejudice against any possibility any good values could possibly exist in him, by liking Putin and he must be erring and going against his values, and therefore should reconsider??? I fail to see the strategic objective in taking that stance! So,I’d rather hope that you would reconsider your last point, than the American male change his new appreciation of the quality of Mr Putin. Thank you.
Not really existing US values, Nussiminen, like murder, exploitation, arrogance and destruction, but the fake Hollywood ‘American values’, that they never lived by.
What a heartening piece of analysis, what a succeeded walk between hurrah ! and Alas! on the day of great Hannah Arendt’s birthday.
For those, who are open for it, I for my person may ask for the largesse to add and share my insight into the current heavenly constellation, which gives all stamina to those side of the equation which hold the Libra-theme of fair partition under whose stars also Vladimir Putin was borne.

some Hillarity from the Borg Queen
OCT 14
By Brandon Turbeville
While Clinton’s demented reaction to Ghaddafi’s death was revealing, her actual contribution to it was not only immoral and illegal, it was treasonous.
Remember, it was Hillary Clinton, along with her State Department staff such as Susan Rice and Victoria Nuland who were out in front building up the case for war against Libya, a “UN Resolution,” and support for the terrorists attempting to overthrow the Libyan leader.
In fact, in an article entitled “Hillary’s War: How Conviction Replaced Skepticism In Libya Intervention,” the Washington Post’s Joby Warrick describes how Clinton provided yeomen’s service in the effort to build an “international coalition” against Libya and Ghaddafi and how she worked overtime to see to it that the nation with the highest living standards in Africa was reduced to a burning desert of rubble and savagery.[1]
http://www.activistpost.com/2015/10/hillary-clinton-the-killing-of-ghaddafi-and-the-destruction-of-libya.html
Clinton: Putin is a Hitler. He has no heart.
Putin: The head of a state department should at least have a head.
Thank you…..gas for winter quarter partly payed for by loans from EIB etc…..but Rus not optimistic about 3b loans and asks ….or might ask- as it feels agrieved- IMF should pay ukr to pay Rus…..may declare official legal default..ukr finance minister say she needs another 70b ….Poro says not happy with Donbass elections next spring but at the moment I’m not sure what the implications of that are…….ukr says it was russian BUK coming into Donbass that did MH17 never their own…I.wonder of any knock on by Dutch saying skies should have been closed(its just a bit ironic ukr have closed their own airspace for political reasons only uhuh thats a bit embaressing so lose kudos points there…Rus had warned international airspace people of dangers this region but as usual no one likes to pay attention…novorossiya today reports junta mass evicting people,occupying eg hospitals schools etc to provide housing for troops…….
Finland was never a nazi state. Finland was never occupied by Nazigermany. Finland faught Russia with help from Germany after Russian attack on Finland.
It was a little more than that.But you are right it wasn’t a “nazi” state.Which is why Finland survived the war without Soviet occupation.The Soviets required them to expel their nazi friends from Northern Finland (which the nazis ravaged as pay-back).But then let them have a peace treaty, with the Finnish government not being overthrown.
This.
The war between USSR and Finland was over border issues the USSR had with Finland as admitted by Putin himself. The Stalin had offered Finland land in Northern Karelia as compensation for the loss of Vyborg but the Finns wouldn’t budge on the issue. Not surprissing as Vyborg was a holiday destination for the elites of Europe but for Stalin, too close to Lenningrad/St Petersburg.
In the first war, The Winter War, Finland had help from Anglo’s but when Germany attached the USSR, the Anglo’s dropped Finland like a hot potato. Germany took over the support and ended up with forces stationed in Lapland by invitation or agreement, not by conquest. No jews from Finland were harmed by the Germans and there was very strict discipline in the German forces in Finland.
At the end of the Continuation War, the Finns as part of their agreements with the USSR had to evict the German forces from Lapland. This was quite bitter for both sides but it did pave the way for Finland’s continued sovereignty. Unfortunately, many middle aged Finns and older confuse Russia of today with the USSR. There is though and has been good working relations between Finns and Russians through time despite the b.s.
The local media mainly controlled by the Sanomat Group though piss many off with their Anglo styled anti Putin/Russian propaganda.
An interesting point that I think the Finn’s miss.If they hadn’t been joined as part of the Russian Empire its doubtful they would exist as a nation today.More parts of today’s Finland were part of Russia at the time.And without the Tsars adding that area to an autonomous Finland it would still be part of Russia (and probably fully Russified by now.While the bulk of Finland would still be untied to Sweden.And if we can judge from what went on in the past there.It would have been assimilated by now into the Swedish ethos.So at best the remaining “Finns” would be minorities in Sweden and Russia.With their language and culture almost extinct.The Russians of that period were far more tolerant of “diversity” (way too tolerant in my thinking) than any other Europeans were.Many small ethnic groups were assimilated all over Europe in the 18-19th centuries.And the Finn’s would have joined them if they hadn’t been part of Russia (the same is true for the Baltic states peoples).But “critical thinking” about the past has never been the “long suit” of Russophobes.
“Finally, I also notice with a mix of amazement and delight that in many comments sections of the Internet Putin is becoming more and more respected, if not always liked.”
I was not surprized by this. Basically western population is angry with its politicians and the situation with the economy, immigration, covert support for islamists, the culture war against traditional and normal values, and this is how the population is trolling its elites.
Good article, but I still think the main focal point for Russia must be to liberate Novorossia + Malorossia + Transniestria from the nazis (or at least the first and last). Russia cannot commit herself elsewhere and leave the nazis to occupy and surpress 20 million countrymen at her own doorstep!
First things first!
Why always referring the bad guys as nazis.? Nazi where not what propaganda says. Why not using zionist? It sound perfect and bad as it is.
There are already pictures of Houthis in Yemen armed with Russian MANPADS.
Does this mean that it is only a matter of time before Nusra etc are given stingers?
Probably.
For those experts on military matters, what would that mean?
A good article from Moon of A today. Well I think it’s good because it coincides with what I have been thinking.
al Nusra is pulling out fighters from the Kurdish and ISIS fronts to the front-lines against Syria. New TOWs shipped in ect.
Since Russia started operations leaflets have been dropped on many areas telling civilians to get out and any fighters that haven’t killed Syrians to surrender and they will get amnesty.
By the time this kicks off there will be a concentration of die hard al Nusra fighters at the frontline armed with TOW missile. There will be very few innocent bystanders with them.
Russia seems to have shipped a number of different multiple rocket systems to Syria- TOS, Grad ect. Russia is about to start using the main airport at Latakia to more than double its air operations.
I suspect al Nusra’s main fighting force at the frontlines with the Syrian army will be destroyed in a matter of days.
Next US president will be Gore. Bloomberg is the pilot drill for Gore and will end up his VP. Few remember Murdoch sitting down to eat a sandwich with Gore in a basketball stadium at Columbia University following the debacle of 2000. There the deal was done. Then Obama got Gore’s nod in 08 on condition of pushing along the decarbonisation agenda and taking us all on a wild ride to what may be described as a minor nuclear excursion or perhaps a generalised deep burn of the majority of the oil wells and fields in the ME. Gore baby gets to come in after Obama’s burn off and some truly scary last few months of Obama’s reign to preach peace and a new deal based on the Carbon Dollar. Sanders is another pilot drill preparing the discourse for radical switch. On the biblical front it seems one of the beasts (axis or combine) resembling a leopard would be the Shia in the form of the Persian Leopard, and the head or mouth of a lion would be Assad and the Syrians (as Assad means Lion) and the Bears Claws would be Russia, and the power and authority (backing) would come from the Dragon (Peking).
mmmmm, bear claws….
**anon, I’ll let this through, but please have some sort of meaning in your comments. thanks – modaa
Interesting … Your Rev. 13 correlations are thought provoking (The Beast/Antichrist). All things considered, too early to tell. However, with Iraq coming to support Syria we are starting to see more of the Persian/Mede empire. But the Antichrist will be a person, as will his helper the False Prophet (See Apollyon Rev. Chap. 9:11 and 11:7-8.)
What? Gore Vidal? Excellent idea. Pity he had to fake his own death, but a great result. Chomsky for Veep, too, surely. Nader as Secretary of State. This is fun! But you soon run out of non-psychotics, alas.
Oh, no, don’t worry, Obama doesn’t care about “looking tougher” than Putin. If anything, Obama is the agent who is reining in the crazy ass neocons who want a tougher policy in the Ukraine. Obama is relatively moderate regarding Ukraine. He has no desire to escalate things there. He doesn’t care about being a macho boy, he is rather metrosexual in his manner and approach to governing; he dresses well, he is very well-spoken and calm and collected; he’s nothing like Insane McCain. People need to be really grateful O won that election!
” Obama is relatively moderate regarding Ukraine”.
Yeah, as relatively “moderate” as the “moderate” Syrian rebels. You got to be having a laugh right ? He is a two faced lying piece of s**t same as any neo-con and he is only there to serve the interests of his pay masters not the American public.
Not everything is black and white. There are degrees.
What “degrees” ?
Then why did the moderate overthrow the democracy and install fratricidal ZioNazi in power?
I would not bet the house on OB making any sort of so-called dumb move. At least if the reference pertains to direct confrontation. In boxing terms, once hit with the one you didn’t see coming one becomes less rather than more willing to go inside and engage.
Regardless of the Belief-System, aka Religion & Religiosity [R&R], R&R being “The Mesmeric Tentacle of The Bookie”, Truth is who and what He is. Afterall, Truth waits for no one.
Since The Energy Creator, who is also The Spiritually Benevolent, is in The Energy Construction phase whereby He, through She/His-Purest-Desire/His-Empowerment, is Unconditional, being Compassion, expressed as Mercy, Compassion being The One who not only realises The Beginning & Ending, but is actually The Beginning & Ending, when self is unable to realise Reality, the reality is then shifted to being a “Witness”, aka The UnAttached/DisEngaged. In this mode, there is no blind-blindedness, be that blindly accepting/worshipping or rejecting/”saving”. As such, when there is Balance during the era of Energy Construction, Reality is not about Judgement but about Informing.
Be informed then that “WW2” was “enacted” for removing Material/”Objective” Enslavement, aka “Colonialisation”, which miscreants like “Churchill”, who, believe it or not, is spending valuable “Buddy-Time” with the likes of “Hitler”, having personally “damaged”/devolved millions, were posturing via the blood, sweat & tears of “Others” whilst trying to be on the good side of their malevolent overlords like The Chonsen/Monied Few.
Although Overt Slavery was somewhat abolished [witness “The French” and their “Mali Extravaganza” – after their Charlie H. Extravaganza no less, “France” having one “Direct Access to Hell” {with the other 2 being located within Good Ole Uncle Sammyness}], Its slack being “taken-up” by Emotional & Intellectual Enslavement, the price paid for ending Overt Slavery was the demonisation of The Swastika. The Swasktika, which is an Ancient Symbol [ancient as in “Before The Advent of the Material Cosmos, which is only possible due to the perfection of The Periodic Table] is what is known as “The Southern Cross” [meaning The Cross that is sited at The “South”/Lower-Extremities of the Human Bodily System], The Swastika being The Gift of Tibetan Black Magic Buddhism to The Fuhrer’s Lot.
The Swastika symbolises Wisdom-Innocence and represents “Gravity”. When The Swastika is used to front for Malevolence, The Swastika “recedes”. Being The Guard to “The Gates of Hell”, when The Swastika leaves his post, “The Gates of Hell” is then opened [season for The Stone Dead].
Realise too that The Swastika is “The Southern Cross” who evolves to become The Northern Cross of Jesus Christ, aka Yeshoda Krishna, The Southern Cross being sited at “Australia”/Urulu. The 4-spokes of The Nothern Cross [of Jesus Christ] is represented/moderated by, at The Back/Pineal by “China”, at The Front/Pituitary by The Slavics/”Russians”, at The Left/Ego [which is actually The Right Brain Lobe due to The Cross-Over of The Brain Lobes] by “The Buddha”, and at The Right[-Brain Lobe]/SuperEgo/Conditionings by “The Mahavira”.
Remember too that when Reality has yet to be realised/verified, “Witnessing” is then the reality otherwise the “seeker” will come under the spell of Religion & Religiosity [R&R], a Religion being The Knowledge which has yet to be attained/realised thereby leading Knowledge/R&R to becoming Of Ownership Issue. Blindness being the point/reality, blindly accepting or blindly rejecting then is to discriminate from either The Past or The Future. This is because the information is merely for “Tasting”/Witnessing and is not for “Eating”/”Digesting”/Blinding.
As such, it is prudent & wise to witness because Witnessing will then lead to self-introspection whereby being able to witness “Evil”-in-progress but will NOT lead to Engagement/Finger-Pointing/Judging-Others other than to judge-self for the wickedness within ALL thinkers. This is because change is never, ever, for Another [regardless of Another being able to change or not] other than for self. When self is then able to realise self, [leading to the realisation of The Self], The “Buck”/”Baton”/Problem is then passable onto The Energy Creator. Just because self is able to witness Wickedness, does not necessarily means self is blameless – more so when the reality is that EVERY Energy Transformer is Innately Selfish. No If’s or But’s, The Proof/sign of divinity being when The Selfish/conditional are able to become permanently Selfless/Unconditional, Unconditionalty being the the sign of Energy Creativity.
There will be NO real soultion to Humanity’s Inhumanity if only because the queue for replacing Wickedness is as long as Humanity itelf. Since the aim is to eliminate Inhumanity, eliminating Humanity then defeats the purpose. More so when The Energy Creaotr exists but is otherwise “infinitely invisible” to The Materialised, The Heart of every human being the vessel for benevolence, The Energy Creator being also The Spiritually Benevolent. It is therefore wise to remember that Truth waits for no one, Truth being who and what He is.
@Vish
Is this a Tarot reading?
And, referring to your last statement here Saker,
Just an anecdote in conclusion: a friend of my wife (male, White, Southern Baptism, NRA member, US patriot) watched Putin’s speech at the UN and told her that “Putin sounds more like a defender of US values than any of our politicians“. Not only do I fully agree with him, but I am amazed that such a typical TV-watching “loyal American” would openly say that. This shows the level of disgust so many people in the USA have for those who rule over them.
As for the UK, according to a recent poll, 71% of Britons support the Russian operation in Syria.
Amazing, no?
I guess the information war is the reason why people all over the world are turning…like a pancake….towards Putin ? Wow…
about Syrian army not being very good…what is the cause of this ? Low morale or infultration by the enemy ?
All of those ‘immigrants’ in Germany are draft dodgers I think. I guess there’s ‘NGO’s inside Syria that have brainwashed those who allow it to be done to themselves….maybe this is a factor in the poor fighting capacities of the Syrian Army…I thought they were the best…?
The sudden guidance towards Europe of waves of Syrian refugees, mostly young adult males, and the sudden mediatic promotion of the virtues/obligation of European societies to receive them with open arms (it is total taboo in Western Europe to question this) is probably a well-thought scheme to empty Syria of a human force willing to resist the foreign-financed attack from the outside.
The pockets of the empire have infinite depth as long as the $ is what it is.
The number of potential foreign bandits/mercenaries/ “yihadists” or whatever you want to call them, willing to accept payment in exchange for destruction and death, is extremely large, almost inexhaustible.
Knowing this, one can excuse some of those young men for choosing not to be patriotic heroes and leaving the country. They probably understand that once the empire of destruction and death gets it into its head that it wants to destroy your country, they are apt to persist in the endeavor much longer than most may think possible. They are very dogged. They may appear to retreat temporarily when a setback occurs, but they always come back. The only thing that may stop them for good is a collapse of the dollar system such that they can no longer fund the astronomical cost of the empire. But such collapse will remain at the level of wishful thinking until it actually happens. It could happen soon, or it could happen in a pretty distant future. In the meantime, the un-patriotic young men may be, if not excused, at least understood for wishing no part in martyrdom at the hands of the Hyena.
Yatseniuk made a “funny” request for one Trillion $ from Russia for Crimea & Donbass.
More seriuously, Russia should ask 10 Trillion $ from Ukraine for the illegal annexation of Crimea from 1954 to 2014.
Yeah – they are the most stupid imbecilic bunch ever. Here is a link to the story:

“Nazi-occupied Ukraine”?
That’s not what Alexander Zakharchenko, prime minister of the separatist Donesk People Republic thinks. He claimed in February 2015 that the US-EU installed regime in Kiev as controlled by miserable Jews.
http://rehmat1.com/2015/02/05/donetsk-pm-ukraine-run-by-miserable-jews/
I don’t think that means he considers all Jews as “miserable”.Though maybe,Ukrainians aren’t “known” for liking Jews in general.But what I do think he meant is that the Jews running Ukraine are miserable (I can’t disagree there).And I think by now we can dispense with any argument denying that most of the junta Ukrainian leaders aren’t Jewish.Just looking at the backgrounds of the political bosses,and even more so the oligarchs that own them, shows that they “are” Jewish.When a particular ethnic/religious group of less than 1% of the population has the Presidency,the Prime Ministership,the speakership of the Parliament,several other Ministerial posts,other major political government and parties under their control.Plus 90% (at least) of the oligarchical class.Then that is a huge sign of something bad in the country.
The Jewish elites are doing directly in Ukraine what they do in the West through Sabbat Goyim stooges and proxies. But don’t dare notice, or, Heaven forfend!- mention it.
Just like the rest of the West, Rehmat.
Dutch activists have succeeded in proposing a referendum on Ukraine’s association agreement, which they say would be harmful to taxpayers in the Netherlands.
The Netherlands are to hold a consultative referendum regarding Ukraine’s association agreement with the European Union after a petition gathered nearly 428,000 signatures, far more than the 300,000 signatures required for such a vote.
“The Association Treaty with Ukraine, which has led to deteriorating relations between the West and Russia, is only an instrument to address a wider problem: the democratic deficit of the European Union,” the referendum campaign website said.
http://sputniknews.com/europe/20151015/1028563991/netherlands-ukraine-eu-association-referendum.html
Because this is only a consultative referendum I tried to find out if there are any real consequences. This is what I found here.
– The referendum will take place in Spring 2016.
– The Dutch parliament has already approved the Association Agreement deal, but under the new law it will have to return to the issue and hold a second vote – assuming turnout exceeds 30%.
– Whether turnout exceeds 30% or not, the Association Agreement will not enter into force on January 1st 2016 as originally planned.
– There has to date been no specific polling on the Association Agreement, but a recent poll found 73% of Dutch voters oppose full EU membership for Ukraine at this moment in time.
– If voters reject the Agreement then it all depends on political parties – will they respect the will of the people or not – when the Dutch parliament will hold a second vote.
Very interesting (purely for its propaganda value though).Even if the referendum is conducted and the voters reject Ukraine’s association to the EU.The likelihood of the Dutch government going against the EU big boys is almost zero.
Quick question, for clarification: Are comments here suppressed silently, without explanation?
Supplementary question, pertaining to earlier discussions: How is the rule on racism applied? I ask because there has been an awful lot of “Jews this, and Jews that”, particularly in comments on a recent guest post. They pass without comment from the moderators, let alone rebuke.
Comments that are deemed inappropriate by a moderator are moved to a holding area. A short explanation is added by the moderator. At various times during the day Saker comes by reviews all held comments and either restores it or removes it. The final decision on all comments are ‘Saker’ alone.
As to racism; comments advocating the superiority of one race over another or calling another race subhuman will not get pass moderation.
To understand ‘Sakers’ views on Zionist and jews please read ‘Terminology’ link on right side of home page. This will assist you in understanding Sakers view.

@ Ewan …….Wake up!

……..jews against isreal…….and this is only New york city!
The same in London, like Golders Green ? Stamford Hill ?
and you being an …..educated college boy.
Not quite what I was discussing with the moderator, but thanks anyway.
Ewan, I imagine that most of the references to ‘Jews’ means the Jewish elite, the ruling forces in Israel and the Jewish Fifth Columns, Lobbies and other associations who control the West. Jews as a whole are varied, like all groups, some excellent human beings, some monsters. The Jews, I think it is fair to say, have a stronger group identity than almost any other group, deriving, I would say, from their religion, which sacralised xenophobia, separatism and a sense of universal superiority over others. As such I find Judaism not to my liking, but it is the Jews’ business, as long as it doesn’t impinge on the human rights of others.
And there is the rub. I was always sympathetic to the Jews because of the Nazi Judeocide, until I discovered the truth about Israel. Thanks, to begin with, to that Jew, Chomsky, who I admire greatly, and his ‘The Fateful Triangle’. Since then Israeli arrogance and brutality and sheer contempt for the rest of humanity has hardened my negative opinions. Not to say that I see Israel as irredeemably evil, because there are some features of its society that seem fine enough to me, but they are few compared to the negative traits, and these negative features only grow worse and worse as Israel moves further Right.
Moreover, I really detest the inordinate power Jews have in Western societies. Not only have they bought unprecedented power in politics by direct monetary transaction, but they are behind the campaigns of Islamophobia and the ‘terrorism’ scam, and the Clash of Civilizations recipe for global war. What is worse, all this is plain and irrefutable, but is denied nonetheless, with venom and belligerence and a censorship so total that anti-Israeli voices are more or less banished from public discourse, and any criticism of Israel’s crimes, or indeed, any action by any Jew anywhere, no matter how odious or wicked it plainly be, is instantly dismissed as bigotry, as ‘antisemitism’. And the Jews demand, and receive absolutely inordinate attention. ‘Human interest’ stories about Jews are massively over-represented for a group that is a mere 1% of the local population, and ‘The Holocaust’ is a pseudo-religion, attention to which massively outweighs all other human tragedies put together,
I’m absolutely prepared to accept Jews as my human equals, but, unfortunately, too many seem utterly indifferent to reciprocating the gesture. Hence, I, for one, have a very dim view of their power and role in the world.
Thanks for your response, It’s a question I should have raised in the appropriate place rather than here. Zionists and anti-Semites, each for their own reason, seek to blur the distinction between Jews and Zionists. The Saker, I understand, has been afflicted by both. Most of the people here are well aware of the distinction. There appear to be an inevitable few who are not. I was incensed by one in particular who (to use Norman Finkelstein’s terms) is clearly not satisfied with righteous denial of “The Holocaust” but denies with relish the holocaust itself (with appropriately tawdry links to justify his distasteful opinions). At the very least, people should put in the work to assess the mass of historical evidence as objectively as they can. I was startled that this stuff could be passed by the moderators and my indignant response deemed too discourteous. As far as I can see, the moderators do a pretty heroic job. They should however allow racists to be called out.
I take it the answer is, Yes, comments can be silently suppressed. Thanks. (I’m sure others have said it, but it’s impressive you volunteer for the chore of moderating the site for us.)
Marvellous interview with Russian lady re where the nwo are going or hoping to ;

If you follow libertarian and conservative sites you will see that the views of your wife’s friend are very common among American conservatives. It is interesting to note that following the recent school shooting in Oregon the mainstream press was caught portraying the mixed-race (he had an African-American mother) shooter as a white supremacist, conservative, loner with an ax to grind. In reality, he looked – and identified as – African-American and was involved in Black Lives Matter and other black political groups. This was an intentional deception.
What Washington would like people to believe is that all mass shootings are committed by conservative, “white supremacists” and that all conservatives are, in fact, white supremacist religious extremists, who interfere with human rights. The political establishment and the American press – both mainstream and left – has been hard at work for years trying cultivate this stereotype. It is based upon deceptions and bears little connection to current realities. In fact, the US Justice Department has essentially just declared war on American conservatives – now loosely labeling the entire group as “extremists” and “terrorists” – and this is not because they are extremists or terrorists, but because their understanding of this government is far superior to that of the left and is directly threatening to the establishment. (this is reflected in their writing.)
The Feds seem to be desperate to shut down the growing discontent – among conservatives. They do not have to worry as much about the American left as most have been absorbed into a government love-fest. What patriot now means in the US is someone who essentially rejects the increasingly dictatorial (and militarily aggressive) establishment and holds instead to our constitutional heritage and blblical teaching. I think the political landscape is shifting quickly.
It is now the liberal/left in America that is turning into the extremist camp and we now see an outpouring of endless absurdities, such as calls for ending the use of common pronouns such as “he” and “she” . In the schools, they now teach our children to abandon normal gender identity – and the use of the words “boy” and “girl” and “mother” and “father” – and to think of themselves as “a little of this and a little of that” – in other words, as budding slaves of the state devoid of gender or personal identity. The insanity increases daily and is too extreme to even comprehend. It is interesting to see where the left is leading us and i can’t say it is appealing.

Greetings from Moscow, after being in Donetsk yesterday. :))
Here in Brazil the media replicate matters of European newspapers, mostly, and of course, almost everything is against the Russian intervention and against Putin (referring to him a very disrespectful manner, sometimes …).
Well, it’s a delight to read the comments, where 90% of the readers support the Russian offensive and many praise the courage of Putin and Russia.
I just don’t know why the author does not state the obvious; the alphabet cannibals in Syria have fled to Germany as “refugees” when they learned that the Russians were coming.
Looking back over US history, I’d say it can never live it’s record down in the face of the rest of humanity. It’s a morally failed state and it’s people have been cloned to believe the opposite.
I have been saying from the beginning that the Novorussia uprising was one of the greatest expressions of american values that I have seen anywhere in the world in a long time. The entire uprising seemed choreographed from the beginning to match the beginnings of the american revolution and essentially the american conservative and generally american ideals of states rights, personal liberty, and representation in government. For god sakes the novorussian flag looked nearly exactly like the confederate battle flag which stood for the same ideals, though plus slavery but lets not get into that. What happened in SE ukraine i could easily see happening in texas or oklahoma or other rural parts of the US if the same or similar conditions existed in the US, like for example if democrat protesters violently chase a democratically elected republican president from office. I mean seriously there are already 50,000 militia members in OK alone and they have demonstrated their willingness to stand up to govt authorities – IE bundy ranch. Whether these similarities were intended by putin and the upper echelons of the kremlin or not, this syrian crisis paints the russians even more favorably since the MSM has spend the last two years demonizing ISIS, well ISIS pretty much did the job for them, and now Russia looks like the hero doing something about it, even if they also hit nusra and fsa in process. Everyone predicts a quagmire for russia but i dnt it since they have competent and dedicated allies on the ground and because their cause against isis was not just created, unlike the US’s cause in iraq, they are merely responding to a universally viewed enemy of humanity.
