I just got the link to this beautiful video sent to me by a friend. It is one of those flash mobs with a musical theme that have become popular in the recent years. This time it is in the (thoroughly) Russian city of Zaporozhie in the (currently Nazi-occupied) Ukraine. The song, in Russian, is a very well known-song from a Soviet movie filmed in Zaporozhie in the 1950s. 83

by Larchmonter445 Everyone in the Deep State is threatened by the Trump Presidency. The Deep State understands that power, funding, ideological stratagems and domination of government, media, academia, think tanks and NGOs are in the ‘field of fight’, to use the book title by a prime target the Deep State intends to destroy in order to save itself from Trump.

This article was written for the Unz Review: http://www.unz.com/tsaker/putin-is-finally-purging-the-medvedev-government/ While the word was focused in rapt attention on the outcome of the US Presidential election, Vladimir Putin did something quite amazing – he arrested Alexei Uliukaev, Minister of the Economy of the Medvedev government, on charges of extortion and corruption. Uliukaev, whose telephone had been tapped by the Russian Security Services since this summer, was arrested in the middle of
by Pepe Escobar for RT In yet one more spectacular chapter of his running Marco Polo in reverse saga, Chinese President Xi Jinping made a strategic stop in Sardinia, Italy, on his way to the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) summit in Lima, Peru. Why beautiful Sardinia? Certainly not for a yacht cruise in the Costa Esmeralda. This is all about, once again, the Chinese-driven New Silk Roads. Huawei is building
So who is this? Hard to believe, but this is 24 year old Anastasia Deeva, the newly appointed Ukrainian Deputy Interior Minister for EU Integration. You don’t believe me? Okay, you can get all the details from this article in The Duran: http://theduran.com/inexperienced-hottie-becomes-minister-in-ukraine/ Frankly, I would have expected anything from Arsen Avakov, the psychopathic Ukie Minister of Interior, but here even I am stomped.

Reminder: John Kirby is a “spokesperson” (yup, that is the correct newspeak) for the US State Department, presumably the branch of the Executive in charge of *diplomacy*. Well, all I can say is that considering the level of US “diplomats” today, I sure hope that Donald Trump will (finally!) appoint some *real*, professional, career diplomats and not yet another bunch of rude, condescending, ignorant and, frankly, stupid amateurs like Kirby.
by Oleg Maslov It’s official, Russia has decided to grab the bull by the horns. Just one week after the shocking vote in the US presidential election resulted in a Trump victory, Russia has decided to pull all the stops and take care of some long lingering business while Obama’s administration is working overtime to manage a transition that no one expected would happen and Obama himself is out of
Damascus, SANA-President Bashar al-Assad gave an interview to RTP TV channel. Update: The YouTube video is no longer available. You can watch the interview here. Following is the full text; Question 1: Mr. President, let’s start with Aleppo if you don’t mind.

by Iman Safi The major political parties of Western democracies; the Conservatives on one hand and the Liberal Progressives on the other hand, irrespective what specific names they give themselves, are by-and-large based on the “traditional” so-called right versus left divide. This divide has taken many shapes and forms, and of course a huge array of names and descriptions, and this is why to pinpoint the doctrinal difference between them,
