Looks like their going to try for a Russian ban at the World Cup.
https://www.rferl.org/a/fifa-authorities-step-up-investigation-alleged-doping-russian-soccer-rodchenkov-wada-mclaren/28977864.html
Yes,I think you are right. They will do “anything and everything” to spoil or cancel the World Cup in Russia.
I’m an optimist and have applied for tickets! If they can’t stop it (like they couldn’t with the Sochi games) they’ll probably try a ‘terrorist’ attack on venues or will retrospectively trash the event. It amuses me that the Western media spent the lead-up to the Sochi Winter Olympics telling everyone how dangerous the area was and showing lots of security people etc etc… But as it is alleged, the FSB was instead devoting its time to organising the ‘state sponsored’ doping! My brother tells me that Maria Sharapova has received rather warm treatment from the crowds at the Australian Open. Much to the chagrin of the mainstream media who insist she is a drug cheat! In the UK, the media have been rabidly calling out Russian doping while tip-toeing around the extremely suspect British cycling establishment. It throws into stark relief just what nauseating hypocrites they are. If I can indulge in a Pollyanna moment, fewer people are swallowing this stuff – just look at the fake news and Russian propaganda furore. If they thought everyone was on the same page, they wouldn’t bother making such a fuss. My fingers are crossed that I’ll get tickets for a couple of games in Sochi – which I thought looked pretty good when I watched the Winter Olympics. An amusing moment during the BBC’s coverage of that event was the final day, when the hostess (who was dutifully anti-Russian throughout) asked her co-presenters what they had thought of the games. One, a former summer Olympic gold medallist rower, waxed lyrical about the venue, organisation, people and the competition. I suspect he had been exasperated by the nonsensical witterings of the front woman. So the big question about whether they ban Russia or move the venue will come down to the power of corporates vs governments. A lot of money goes into the World Cup. Will they really want a last minute change of venue? Will they really want the host team to be banned and thus risk a no show by the locals? I think corporates trump government every time. And the more the US shows its true face (thanks Trump for being such a transparent noodle!) the more it emboldens some countries to act a little, just a little, more independently…
More and increasingly crazed put-downs on China’s peaceful development by the Zio-Yanks sponsored poison-pen for hire pressitudes, this time blaming China for everything wrong under the sun.
http://www.atimes.com/climate-change-may-well-enemy-military-one/
Next these Zio-Yanks will blame China for not providing cheap toilet bowls when they start defecating in the open like the what their Indian Quad ally is now doing!
I have noted recently that the semantic value of T Man’s derogatory name for Kim, “Rocket Man” has in printed usage subtly changed to an honorific value. How the best intentions can go wrong! Alas!
Therefore I was pleased to see his very well done new year address…
Is worthwhile to compare Kim’ speeches to T Man’s…

Kim Jong Un’s 2018 New Year’s Address
https://www.ncnk.org/node/1427
oopps, 2017 was given. above is 2018 address by Kim. Smart fella…
“…Dear fellow countrymen and brave service personnel of the People’s Army,
Dear compatriots,
Today, recollecting with great pleasure and pride and deep emotion the proud achievements we performed last year through our diligent and worthwhile labour and sincere efforts and by the sweat of our brow, we are all seeing in the new year 2018 with fresh hopes and expectations.
Greeting the hope-filled new year, I wish the families across the country good health, happiness, success and prosperity. I also wish that the beautiful dreams of all our people, including the hopes of our children in the new year, would come true.
Comrades,
As I look back upon last year, when I worked strenuously on the road of achieving national prosperity, gaining great strength and wisdom from the pure minds of the dauntless people who invariably trusted and followed the Party even in the face of manifold difficulties and trials, I feel my heart swelling with the pride in waging the revolution shoulder to shoulder with a great people.
On behalf of the Workers’ Party of Korea and the government of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, I extend sincere thanks and New Year greetings to all the people and service personnel who won miraculous victories to be noteworthy in the national history of 5 000 years by sharing mind and purpose with the Party and supporting its determination on the road of arduous yet glorious struggle.
My New Year greetings go also to the compatriots in the south and abroad who are fighting for the reunification of the country and to the progressive peoples and other friends across the world who opposed war of aggression and gave firm solidarity to our cause of justice….”

Russia Insider is now an openly anti-Jewish website:
http://russia-insider.com/en/its-time-drop-jew-taboo/ri22186
There are Russophiles in every nation, including Israel, Poland, and Ukraine. I think sane people realize this. The Saker definitely realizes it, and his writing about the AngloZionist Empire has been spot on. But if you read the Russia Insider post closely, you will see that the editor is taking a very different tack. He is saying that the Jews, *all* Jews and *only* Jews, are responsible for all anti-Russia sentiment.
As an ethnically half-Jewish (from a non-practicing family) anti-Zionist, I am deeply disturbed by this. This does nothing to change my love for Russia. I know too many Russian Orthodox offline and I know they have nothing to do with this alt right crap. But the impact of social media is real.
OK, it’s just a series of ads, but “Opulence” and “I am Epic Win” show the way Russia is portrayed in the US:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f0fa_BaljjQ
The topic is always, in some way or another, attacked.
This is the theme of what the author-publisher wrote.
And in the comments, that’s what happened.
There is never any way, idiom, vocabulary, source, resources, proofs, arguments, or comment that is acceptable.
That’s the essence of what he then opened to all and any to bring some intellectual dialogue.
So, you proved his point and what the problem is.
And that is the great danger of the shutdown of the topic. It builds great resentment because there is powerful evidence pointing to a tribe of people who have been accumulating power and creating hell for others.
As it applies to Russia-phobia/hatred, it is undeniable.

You coming from a part-Jewish background.And as you say not believing in zionism,I can understand your reluctance to agree with the article.But truthfully,what in the article can you say isn’t true.I thought it was very truthful, and fact based.I’m not Jewish,but in my early years supported zionism as most Americans. Influenced by memories of WWII which saw Jews as victims of nazism,how could I not. My eyes were opened when I began to see how the Israeli Jews treated the Palestinians.And how anyone that disagreed with that was insulted and threatened by “hasbara” agents.Starting from there, I began to see most of the other issues the author mentioned.Like the author,I too realize that there are many Jews that aren’t part of the “elite”.And aren’t responsible for the things the article talks about.There are even some that are prominent in opposing that elite.But that doesn’t take away from the facts mentioned in the article.
It is very true that the majority of the most voracious Russophobe’s in positions of power are Jewish.That is just a fact.Easily proved by a check of their names and backgrounds.In the US, Jews are less that 3% of the population.And yet the vast majority of the leading neo-cons,media elite,banking elite,entertainment media,and social media,are Jewish.Who almost all,for “some reason” seem to hate Russia,and love Israel.I’m not a math expert.But I can add two and two together to get four.
Some might ask,”why” the Jewish hatred of Russia.That is a very complicated question. Was it because Russia was one of the last countries to give full rights to Jews.Even though Russia during the Empire days had Europe’s largest (by far) Jewish population.I think that is part of it,surely. Over 2 million Jews immigrated from Europe to the US in the 19th and early 20th century. And by far the lion’s share of them came from the Russian Empire. So the hate of Russia among US Jews,almost certainly has roots from that. But there is more too it than that.
With the Russian Revolution,Jews in Russia gained immense power.And for years they dominated the Soviet state.Again,another fact easy to prove by checking names and backgrounds on the internet.But Stalin broke a lot (not nearly all,but a lot) of that power during his time as leader of the USSR. Before Stalin many US Jews praised the USSR. Some Jewish authors even wrote books praising the amounts of Jewish influence in the USSR. The US Communist Party was a “whose who” of Jewish names,which was true of Europe as well. And while devoted Communists still supported “Russia” (the USSR) for many more decades.Other Jews began to revert to Russophobia after Stalin’s purges of Jewish influence in his government.With the fall of the USSR,the Russian Communist ties with US Jews were totally broken.Leaving US Jews to fall back to their previous hatred of Russia.
In Europe we can see a similar thing unfolding. While so many of the Russian Empire’s Jews immigrated to the US. Many other immigrated to other European countries during that same period. Large numbers flooded into Germany,France,and the UK,in particular.Again,another fact that names and backgrounds show clearly. The influx swamped the long established European Jewish communities in those countries.And spawned a huge rise in antisemitism in those countries.With German Jews in particular baring the brunt of it.Many of those immigrants carried their hatred of Russia with them.And only during the USSR period,with its Jewish influence did that abate.Again,a check of Communist leaders names and backgrounds shows the high level of Jewish ancestry of the early Communist Parties in Europe.Unlike in the US,Jews in Europe (outside the USSR) were divided pre-WWII. You had the zionist movement.Which while large was still a minority among European Jews. A large grouping of assimilationist Jews (in many countries the majority).And a sub-group of Communist Jews,that believed in assimilation,but under a Communist system. World War II destroyed most of the assimilation supporters.Killing many,leaving others to support zionism,or Communism.The supporters of those two movements were somewhat less affected.They both had a history of secret underground activity.So they were less visible (in the main,many of them died as well.But not in the same percentages as the others),to the nazis. With the end of the war and the rise of Israel,Europe’s Jews were mostly reduced to being zionists or Communists.And with the fall of the USSR,the same anti-Russian pattern among European Jews seen in the US was seen in Europe too.
But there are other reasons that also lead to Jewish Russophobia. The establishment of Israel being probably the main one.With the founding of the zionist movement.While some of the leaders came from various Jewish backgrounds.The majority of the “rank and file” (as well as some of the leaders) had Russian Empire Jewish roots.Certainly most true of those in Palestine during the early period.Where those from the Russian Empire were clearly in the majority.Many Jews immigrating to Palestine in that period had “Socialist” economic ideas.And in the USSR there was thinking that a Jewish state in Palestine “might” become Communist.Which is why the Soviets at first supported it.But fairly quickly the zionists showed themselves to be “petty bourgeois”,and they allied themselves to the US.They crippled the Communist Party,and only left any Socialist ideas as a “window dressing”.Their ethnic cleansing of the native population,angered the USSR,and the divide was created. Israel and the US on one side,and the USSR and the Arab states on the other.Even though the fall of the USSR changed a lot of the reality in the region. The hatred of Russia for its opposing Israel in the past remains.
There is other reasons that I think explain Jewish elite hatred of Russia.To understand we have to revisit the past a bit.And take the US separate from the rest of the European World.In the US, by the early 20th Century Jews had become prominent in what we’d call today the finance and social economy (i.e. media,banking,academia,chain stores,entertainment).But still hadn’t gained the full acceptance and political influence their economic influence should have given them. World War II changed that.The reaction among Americans to the nazi crimes gave the Jews the portrait of eternal victim hood.Which the countless books and movies propagandized. It gave them a cover to push their political power.And a club to beat down anyone attacking Jews,zionism and Israel.It leads directly to the neo-con World we have in the US today. In Europe,the center of nazi crimes,it did much the same.But even more so.Before WWII Jewish influence was less than in the US.They didn’t dominate the finance ,social economy,as fully as in the US.And the social acceptance level was much lower in most of the European countries than in the US.The war changed all of that. As horrible as the nazi crimes were to individual Jews.For the zionists and Jewish elite,it was a big plus.They were able to establish Israel,cover anything they did by charges of antisemitism,and gain the control in Europe that we see today.
So you might ask how did that relate to the Russia-hate? After gaining so much control over the US,and most of Europe.There was only “one” powerful place left in the European World uncontrolled,and that was Russia (or the ex-USSR).Right after the fall of the USSR,and throughout the 1990’s it looked like they would gain control there too.Most of the Russian leaders weren’t anti-Jewish.Many of the oligarchs (very many) were from Jewish backgrounds.And most of the Western companies infiltrating the ex-USSR established ties with Jewish Soviets.Did you ever wonder how it was that so many Jewish oligarchs have ties with Western companies? Who better for Western companies to collude with than people they thought would be less patriotic Russians.Especially as many of those Westerners themselves were Jews or had heavy Jewish ties.
The problem for the West though was,they weren’t able to decide if they just wanted puppets to control Russia through.Or to fully feed their Russophobia and destroy Russia.After all the Russian’s didn’t fully accept the WWII Jewish victim hood. And why should they. They saw at the very lest 4 times as many Soviet citizens slaughtered by the nazis as is claimed for the Jews.And they themselves were the ones who ended the nazi slaughter of all peoples during the war.They had no reason to feel any guilt over the Jews.Had they accepted that as the US and Europe did,maybe the Jews wouldn’t hate Russia so much,but they wouldn’t. Lastly with the rise to power of Putin,the Jewish elites in Russia were “curtailed”.Not purged to nearly the degree as under Stalin. But still they lost a lot of influence over Russia.And that has released all the floodgates for worldwide Jewish elements to demonize Russia. So no,the article,while certainly not “PC” by Western standards is correct in the real world.

I take it by ‘communists’ you mean Trotskyists?
That depends on which period you are talking about. Up until Stalin I’d say yes,Trotskyists. During and after Stalin,not Trotskyists. Though outside the USSR, Trotskyists and ex-Trotskyists were represented in the Communist Parties (though in many they were undercover).
Getting late:
The likes a Harry Dextor White and others that were in the State Dept well before the recent presidents.
AFAIK, trotskist were well in place since the late 20’s .
Sorry, too tired. Hope to carry this thread later. Thanks!
@Uncle Bob. Little more to add to that, except that the post War “window of opportunity” for the Jews to gain sympathy as victims of Hitler is now closed; slammed firmly shut by the Zionazi State of Israel and the Anglo-Zio-Capitalists who now control the “commanding heights” of the Western World: its banks, its lawmakers, and its MSM. Jews are present numerically out of all proportion in Govt, Law, Business, the Sciences and Entertainment. And, as Solzhenitzyn wrote, in the anti-Christian Communist party. His “Two Hundred Years Together” — a major work by the greatest living Russian author — has not even been published in the West, let alone discussed. And in the West one cannot even question the Jewish Holocaust without fear of imprisonment. Russian Insider is right: this weird post War social phenomenon in the West needs to be discussed.
“The Jews have suffered many calamities in their long and sorrowful history; and their greatest calamity was to be a Chosen People. Like the Imperial British and the Germans, this led the Jews as a people to the catastrophic sin of Pride.” — GK Chesterton, The New Jerusalem.
thanks for the reference, had not heard of two hundreth years together.
anyone has links for a reliable english version?
Lately, this last week, I’ve noticed the zionazi spamming here has been increased on this site. Checking the comments on other sites, same thing going on. In the news, the zionazis are also revamping their assault on life on Earth pretty much across the board. My guess, the zionazis are getting things ready to pull some of their usual govno.
It’s false flag time again.
I love this site. Thanks,all (even the trolls).
VT,
You are correct.
Full time everywhere, the InfoWar is on.
True, even I’ve noticed the increase in Hasbara trolling. A few days ago there was one David Ronin and some other character who has the same complaint about thesaker.is being ‘anti-jewish’. All of them have the same story line. They all start with some fictitious story (like this guy being ‘half-jewish’) and try to gain fake sympathy (one such comment previously feared that the Saker might get negative reviews from NYtimes due to the ‘anti-Semite’ commentators on this site).
I’ve actually been quoted favorably by Saker in one of his articles. I’ve never mentioned my heritage before because it didn’t seem relevant — I am on the same page with him regarding Rabbinic Judaism and Zionism. If anyone really cares, the mods could check that I am the same person who he quoted last year. I have the same username and IP address from then.
@ JL Seagull – You say you are “deeply disturbed by this.”
Is your turmoil the result of seeing the truth revealed by a focus on Jewish political power wielded by Jews? Or is it just hurt feelings? Patriotic USAers like myself have a similar experience when we realize that what we learned in civics class just ain’t so.
If you’re not against it, you might be considered to be in favor of it. The stakes are very high as the Jewish empire now teeters on the brink.
What society will host the parasite after it has destroyed the US?
Jewish power weilded by Jews is very real! I endorse the Saker’s writings on this. The Russia Insider article is very different. Read it for yourself if you don’t believe me.

Russia Pays Old Czarist Bond Debts In France

I saw that ridiculous French claim. I suggest Russia file a counter lawsuit for reparations against France for Napoleon’s invasion of Russia.And for the French cooperation in the intervention in Russia after WWI.Those claims would certainly total many millions (billions) of dollars more than what the French claims are for.
Uncle Bob 1
I agree 100%
They are not ridiculous Bob, they have losed their mind. Since Macron went in the Elysee Palace and believing that he is the new King of France, having two crowns – that of Louis XIV and that of Napoleon – things are getting strange. Those people won’t bark if he (the King) wouldn’t like that show. And not to forget, the Empire likes that show also, screaming in pleasure. I don’t think this will be the last fart from their part, just to amaze the large public in their insanity.
Oh yes,this certainly is not their last attack on Russia.
Report from the front lines of the US class war:
1. Infowars ( Alex Jones) –yes, I know zionist dupe and all that–has published a ‘poop’ map of San Francisco. It is what it says: a demarcation of a zone of public defecation. We need one for Sacramento
2. Steven Seagal appeared on Alex Jones Show ( AM 1-15-18) to declare open warfare upon the deep state and more importantly the Black Lodges of Hollywood. He is living in Japan and should probably stay there except for brief forays out. He should also take no food or drink from unknown source and needs be very careful of electricity and water. He mentioned that one of his children had been approached–yes–that was the first approach of wiggling the loose tooth. What most people do not know was that the historical Buddha ( the most recent one) had attempts on his life launched by family members in dynastic feuds who felt he was a threat. They poisoned him and he let them is one story but that is not widely known as it does not perpetuate the mythos as well as the main image of peaceful meditation untouched by the world.
Steven Seagal has his north and south nodes of his astrological chart smack dab on the N-S node of the recent “through the heartland” complete solar eclipse of the sun in the USA. We have experienced some of the sequela of that eclipse here in California ( minus the ‘big one’). Also his Uranus is located in his 12th house of Cancer–Uranus is sometimes seen as a Promethean figure and his Sun in Aries with several other major aspects have seen him carry out the hero archetype in the popular culture.
Putin likes him– Seagal’s Mar and Putin’s Venus are both in Scorpio and both are devotees of the martial arts. With a 6th house ( service) vertex/chiron conjunction opposing that Uranus world archetype ( martyr for peace, justice and the American way) I can only wish him success in fighting the good fight.
May all the prayers of his Buddhist buddies be helpful because if he thinks he can depend only on his “natural born” clairvoyance for protection in the days ahead, he would be seriously mislead by his own (Aries-Leo) tendency of grandiosity–even if delivered with a throaty whisper.
Terra,
astrodata has him with ASC Leo, Pluto right on that point.
https://www.astro.com/cgi/chart.cgi?wgid=wgeJwljcEKwjAUBL9GUFghSVOMhnfwJIKeinh-paENNqG00dC_t6WnhWGZyf7jSdk2EEsbG6oct9yjSu7nIgKkgIY8lwqyuJQaXZnR8gSBB8fJxxbP-06J_as6wOhcFNAqao0vzEnACANhuakjB0ebdHlvkZU3nBxJsbDrMPp-2bVl6zQPlJUNqSNO2XbTTEdpx4nE-_YHroA13g
I believe in that version, cause, as Pluto represents ‘form’, and Scorpio is ruling his Mars, we have the perfect sovereign (Leo) on the marked formal charakter of Japanese martial arts.
Same with Putin: his ASC Scorpio rules 1. and 2. house with Mars in the latter.
Thanks for the introduction of this important character.

US Air Force Sends DOS-Attacking Aircraft to Korean Peninsula
https://sputniknews.com/asia/201801161060802832-us-air-force-sends-aircraft-to-korean-peninsula/
“According to reports Monday, the US’ EC-130H Compass Call aircraft, which is capable of issuing a denial of service attack an enemy plane’s communication abilities, was deployed to South Korea’s Osan Air Force Base January 4.”
Beyond reporting the deployment, the article is infiltrated zionazi obfuscating govno, and useless. Sputnik needs to do some serious house cleaning of the things. So what is the real purpose of the deployment? This article on the aircraft type and its past use is of use:
EC-130H Rivet Fire / Compass Call
https://www.globalsecurity.org/military/systems/aircraft/ec-130h.htm
“Compass Call is the designation for a modified version of Lockheed corporation’s C-130 Hercules aircraft configured to perform tactical command, control and communications countermeasures or C3CM. Targeting command and control systems provides commanders with an immense advantage before and during the air campaign. COMPASS CALL provides a non-lethal means of denying and disrupting enemy command and control, degrading his combat capability and reducing losses to friendly forces.
The EC-130H Compass Call is the only US wide-area offensive information warfare platform, Compass Call provides disruptive communications jamming and other unique capabilities to support the Joint Force Commander across the spectrum of conflict. Specifically, the modified aircraft uses noise jamming to prevent communication or degrade the transfer of information essential to command and control of weapon systems and other resources. It primarily supports tactical air operations but also can provide jamming support to ground force operations.
During Operation Desert Storm EC-130H Compass Call electronic warfare aircraft, operating outside Iraqi airspace, safe from Iraqi defenses, jammed communications, hindering the effectiveness of Iraq’s integrated air defense network. Rivet Fire has demonstrated its powerful effect on enemy command and control networks in Panama and Iraq.”
False flag support and/or support in an attack on DPRK. Are the zionazis planning a false flag on the olympics? It’s not like they have not initiated an attack during the olympics before.
All the signs say they intend to attack the NK – and soon.
And yes, is FF time again. But after blowing the buildings what’s big enough for the encore?
Indeed, better living through atomic energy, they used to chime. And they are letting everybody be so scared, like in Hawaii.
The FF is part of the tell.

Hawaii’s governor said one worker (“a worker”) pushed the wrong button announcing that Hawaii was under missile attack. In my lay opinion this seems more like a “psy op” than a “woops, much dinner sandwich bumped into a button. Does anyone here with expert knowledge convince me that my first thought was wrong? Thanks.
I don’t have expert knowledge, but given the anti NoKo rhetoric and the stance taken at the Vancouver conference today, it looks like the false alarm is just political theatre to condition the US people that NoKo is bad and must be destroyed. Or, it’s part of US operation to torpedo the peace talks now ongoing between NoKo and SoKo. The Americans are positioning lots of materiel around NoKo at the moment, probably intended for some kind of operation during the Olympics. On a balance of probabilities, the false alarm was not an accident.
I don’t disagree with what you said about the “false Alarm being an op for “conditioning”, but, I ran across something concerning the NSA data facility in Hawaii that has an automatic function when such an “alert” is
sounded. It’s huge store of data is disgorged stateside but is vulnerable to interception en-route. The theory was that the “official, not a drill, incoming missile warning” was a White Hat ruse to expose this data for interception. Supposedly a big part of this formerly un -access-able data concerns the “Deep State” crap like “Uranium One, and the commo of associated pukes in the “alphabet agencies” leadership. Think Obama, Clintons, Comey, Mueller, McCabe, Strzok………….. I may have run across this theory on one of the sites that dissects the chicken entrails of Qanon.

“The US strategic objective of regime change in Syria is foiled once again.
Russian Military Intelligence has recently managed to intercept 2 truckloads (entering Syria from Turkey); the trucks supposedly contained a shipment of medical supplies and had a load of International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) aluminum cases containing stacks of $100 dollar bills. The total amount is estimated to have exceeded US one billion dollars.
The Russians are sure that this “shipment”, compliments of Uncle Sam, was going to the US supported branch of ISIS in Syria in order to help them re-group and continue to fight the Syrian army from the US controlled border strip between Syria and Iraq. So much for American claims of promoting democracy and freedom.
The Syrian government and its allies are probably grateful for this generous US donation (at the expense of the US taxpayer) that could be used to help rebuild Syria. After all, it was the US and their terrorist proxies that destroyed Syria in the first place. Ahhh, the irony…”

Neocon Think Tanks Not Russian Media Are the Enemy Within

A beautiful journey across Russia.
http://www.calvertjournal.com/features/show/9483/trans-siberian-railway-journey-documentary-photography
I’ve travelled platskart before – sometimes it’s the only option (branch lines). sometimes everything else is booked out. If you’re a light sleeper, not good for a good nights sleep. But it helps you understand the Russian noun “sputnik”. I still have friends from those journeys. Sharing bread crosses almost all boundaries.
The Inspector General Report was turned in to Congress last Friday … all 1.2 million pages of it. This is bad news for the Swamp Zionists.
Now’s the time the SHTF.

New infrastructure that will transform world economic and political power/dominance within this century: Implications and consequences (see maps).
1. Sakhalin-Hokkaido Bridge
http://russia-insider.com/en/another-multi-billion-russian-bridge-time-near-japan-sakhalin/ri22178
This will (eventually) link up with the Trans-Eurasia highspeed rail network! Imagine travelling from East Asia (Japan, Korea, China, SE Asia) to the west coast of Europe (London, Rotterdam, Hamburg) on one integrated transcontinental-Eurasian fast train network!
2. Russia-China oil/gas pipeline extension
http://russia-insider.com/en/2nd-massive-russia-china-gas-pipeline-starts-flowing-payment-ruble-yuan/ri22070
(a) Imagine future further extensions to Japan, Korea, SE Asia — more secure oil/gas supplyline, avoiding (naval attack) choke-points on sealanes at Straits of Homus, Straits of Malacca, etc.
(b) Payments will be made in rubles, yuan or local Asian currencies — abandoning the use of (soon to become junk/backed by nothing!!!) US$ from already highly indebted/bankrupt USA!
3. Which groups/govts/countries will NOT be glad to see these projects completed successfully??? What will they do to try to disrupt/sabotage/stop them??? Will this extend to (global) war???
While Russia and China are planning and implementing the century’s new major infrastructure to promote better trade, communications and development for the whole Eurasian continent (with ripple benefits for the rest of the world), the USA and its allies (puppets/stooges) are increasing military expenditures and war preparations in Asia (Korea, Japan, South China Sea), Middle East, and Eastern Europe. Why??? (Prepare yourself for possible eventualities!)
Many probably do not know that Hokkaido island has existing rail under sea to main Japanese Islands, and thus may not understand the significance of the proposed bridge between Sak and Hok.
There is also a proposal to link Siberia to it’s lost province.
Lost province?
Alaska…(and thus of course to all of the American land-mass.)
Yes, Alaska, beneath the Bering Straits. And will Alaskans vote to return to Siberia? Probably.
However the matter will have to wait until the war is over.
And it seems like the Korean War 2.0 is “on” as they say. Lavrov said Tiler-son is lying just now on RT. Evidently diplomacy has ended if Comrade L speaks so bluntly.
Trotsky was instructed to kill all of the Czars heirs so his $400m held in NY banks could be stolen. The payment for the sale of Alaska was part of that $400m, so Alaska may be legally repossesed by Russia now.
A member of Lincoln’s cabinet, Seward, a singularly and vastly corpulent and corrupt character was, I believe heavily involved – and I was under the impression that Seward pocketed most of the congressional appropriation – but these thing are always complex, and therefore I especially thank you for the Trotsky bit. I would like to know more about it, too…
As to legality, yes, that may arise…but VVP gave an ultimatum to the empire some time ago – it’s an accurate description – and he said among other things that there had to be reparations for the sanctions and counter-sanctions and so forth…Alaska, with a plebiscite or referendum, plus the legalistic claims, may well return to Siberian Oblasts. I expect this, and have expected this, for many years. The precise mechanism awaits the whims of man and fate.
Speak of the Trotsky bit, who says? Is unknown to me.
The very fact that two false alerts can take place in less than a week, after decades in which no such panics took place, highlights the advanced preparations for war with North Korea, and also with major nuclear-armed powers such as China and Russia. Surveillance and warning systems are being built, or revived from the Cold War and extended, as part of a rapid US-led military build-up in Asia.
http://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2018/01/17/japa-j17.html
But see my comment below. Any plans for war with North Korea are now of no use, defused by a rapprochement between North and South.
So the Neocon / Zionist/ Chosenite/ Elitists will look elsewhere.
In the light of the recent Delingpole diatribe against Iran , published by Breitbart, I think we may have a possible candidate for regime change.
The outcome is a foregone conclusion: the r soles lose . . . .again.
It does seem to have weakened the rhetorical position of Empire, nevertheless any number of fake casus belli are available within the agustinian realm of the 4th reich and the magical thinking they enjoy so well. geewhiz, you don’t imagine that after years of preparations and cunning plots, not to mention all the ships and aircraft and soldiers involved in the biggest western buildup since 2002 they are simply going to say aw shucks and go home, do you?
The attack, however, is ill omen’d. This particular fault centers on three problems, the sea, the land, and the air. All three of these forces know what the targets are, and they know what you intend, and where you are and where you are going, even to speed and height. They “know everything”, as Comrade VVP said. Worse, this is a sea power attacking two massive land powers which host perhaps 15000 years of military sharpening. At a distance of incredible vastness any re-supply is heavily problematic…
About the casus belli…they say “… new policy in the coming weeks that would authorize the use of nuclear weapons in response to crippling cyberattacks…” just now at sputnik…jus’ sayin’
This NK/SK matter “justifies” all the presence all the way back to san diego. is the essential Asiatic Axis of control by seapower of heartland. vital imperial interests are at stake. they must attack. is logic of empire. ugly. stupid. film at 11…
“they are simply going to say aw shucks and go home, do you?”
Not for a fraction of a minute did I think that. Of course there will be a new target, probably several.
But as you say, we know them well ; and we are ready.
I just enjoy seeing plan after plan being thwarted. We may yet lose some battles , but they will lose the war.

Trump’s Sexual Skills ‘Textbook Generic,’ Porn Star Stormy Daniels Claims
https://sputniknews.com/us/201801171060836399-trump-sexual-skills-textbook-generic-porn-star-claims/
“As the story goes, after Daniels met with Trump at a celebrity golf tournament in July 2006, the two hit it off and ultimately spent a night together. In January 2018, the Wall Street Journal published a report alleging that Daniels was paid $130,000 to keep mum on the affair when Trump was out on the campaign trail.
But Trump’s lawyer, Michael Cohen, says this never happened.
But this seems a little shaky, folks.
In the InTouch interview, which was conducted in 2011, Daniels, whose legal name is Stephanie Clifford, gave explicit details to the celebrity magazine about her time with Trump all those years ago. In fact, Daniels told the outlet that “[the sex] was textbook generic.” Ouch.
“I actually don’t even know why I did it,” the star added. “But I do remember while we were having sex, I was like, ‘Please don’t try to pay me.'”
LOL.
Now this sexual underachiever is threatening nuclear war.
It seems, the communal sex has its dangers, mainly for those who are not well prepared…

In his talk entitled, “The Way Forward in Syria,” today, Rex Tillerson stated the US desire to see President Bashar al Assad removed from power, while also pledging to stay in Syria “in order to counter Iran’s influence in the region.”
Ultimately, according to Tillerson, “the Unites States will remain in Syria” until certain conditions are met, which include the complete destruction of ISIS, Assad’s removal from power, and the return of refugees to a stabilized country.

when I watched the first image, the little mere, mirroring heaven,
an old little poem of mine, 35 years old, came into my mind:
See’le
schwäbisch Wort
im Deutschen
Himmel weit
so weit entfernt
Nur im
See’le
kann sich spiegeln
ferne Schöpfung
trostbesternt
note: the southern German idioms
prefer the diminution of all things.
So the ” kleine See” (little lake) appears
spoken as ” See’le “, yet Seele = soul
here my try of an English version:
See’le
Swabian word
in German
heaven far
so far a place
just in See’le
is the mirror
far creation’s

Litany for the Feast of All Souls
English Translation © Richard Wigmore
May all souls rest in peace;
those whose fearful torment is past;
those whose sweet dreams are over;
those sated with life, those barely born,
who have left this world:
may all souls rest in peace!
The souls of girls in love,
whose tears are without number,
who, abandoned by a faithless lover,
rejected the blind world.
May all who have departed hence,
may all souls rest in peace!
And those who never smiled at the sun,
who lay awake beneath the moon on beds of thorns,
so that they might one day see God face to face
in the pure light of heaven:
may all who have departed hence,
may all souls rest in peace!

Southern US Army Recruits So Overweight They Threaten ‘Military Readiness’
https://sputniknews.com/military/201801181060839733-southern-US-army-recruits-overweight-threaten-military-readiness/
“A recent study reveals that US Army recruits from Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Texas “are significantly less fit, and consequently are more likely to encounter training-related injuries than recruits from other US states.”
The findings, published by South Carolina military college The Citadel, the US Army Public Health Center and the American Heart Association, reveal that regardless of gender, soldiers from those states are 22 to 28 percent more likely to be injured during training.
The report also warns that “physical inactivity and obesity are well recognized among the most critical public health challenges of the 21st century,” explaining that one third of Americans between the ages of 17 and 24 are too overweight to meet military service requirements.
More US soldiers come from the South than from any other US region.
Pig headedness is becoming pig bodyness, as well. The prime source of colonial cannon fodder is getting too fat to be of practical use. This is a disaster in the making for zionazi, inc. Who will fight their wars?
It may be an error to view the US as anything other than the first Country that became occupied by Empire.
A thoughtful look at a map of in-country military bases and garrisons of soldiers – the distribution of power inside the US – would then make sense. The South is particularly an occupied region, and fractious too so this makes sense.
The occupation began, some might say, with the conspiracy to murder Lincoln, though of course the intrigues long predate that inflection point. Another inflection point was Wilson and the Fed, and another the FDR murder, yet another JFK (though by that time the nature of the cabal had become far less “english”..far more American…and then the merry liquidations really got going, MLK, RFK and so on with what can only be understood as killteams.
There is zero indications that this process has ended.

Pilots of the Sukhoi Su-30M2 fighters jets and Su-34 bombers took part in the drill, landing their massive aircraft on an 18-meter-wide asphalt road, Russia’s military announced. Due to the difficult weather conditions, the landings were carried out without the warplanes coming to a full stop on the ground.”

Putin: Communist ideology similar to Christianity, Lenin’s body like saintly relics
https://www.rt.com/news/415883-putin-communist-ideology-christianity/
“Maybe I’ll say something that someone might dislike, but that’s the way I see it,” Putin said in an interview for the documentary Valaam, an excerpt of which was broadcast on Russia 1. “First of all, faith has always accompanied us, becoming stronger every time our country, our people, have been through hard times.
“There were those years of militant atheism when priests were eradicated, churches destroyed, but at the same time a new religion was being created. Communist ideology is very similar to Christianity, in fact: freedom, equality, brotherhood, justice – everything is laid out in the Holy Scripture, it’s all there. And the code of the builder of communism? This is sublimation, it’s just such a primitive excerpt from the Bible, nothing new was invented.”

I’m continuing to adjust post-fire. My body in particular is adjusting to a new alignment and assignment; it’s a painful process. I extrapolate this experience to the world in general. Holistically, I am part of the world and the world is part of me. My mind is also aligning with the raw truth of a changing reality.
Here at the Vineyard, war is our reason-for-being; we are here to stop the war on Russia and war as such. Each of us has our own unique part to play in this endeavor. Mine seems to be to go as deeply into the heart of the beast as I can, and come out alive; quite the thankless task which is by no means popular.
I must question the unquestionable and quest the impossible dream. Despite the difficulties, there is a pleasure and joy in overcoming my character flaws. To achieve victory out there, I must first secure the beachhead within myself. My background is primarily religious, and that remains my modus operandi for dealing with war.
Fifty years ago I extricated myself from the Roman Catholic Church and priesthood with the help of biblical exegesis. I studied form criticism and sitz in leben. A few days ago I revisited those ideas, and find them useful in understanding my life situation in this world, and the world’s situation in respect to war. Unless I understand history, I am doomed to repeat it. Simplistic solutions don’t cut; the Empire is too clever for that.
War has a way of ensnaring me in spite of my best intentions; in fact, precisely because of those intentions. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Evil spirits have been playing the game of war since time immemorial. What chance do I have in defeating them?
Religion is the culprit and the key to unlocking the chains and prison gates. It is providential that this anti-war site is bolstered from within by the idea of Orthodox Religion. Re-ligion means to tie back into Source; Ortho-dox means straight and true doctrine. Nature is my source, and Love is my doctrine.

I got up at 5 in the first faint glimmer of dawn. It’s now 6. [I’m posting this at about 2:30 pm now that I’m at a library that has internet]. I feel the pull to step out into nature, and view the fading stars and rising daystar, and walk on the earth among the sacramental art, those symbols and icons that bridge the road from war to love.
Love, Dennis
When Dennis writes : “…; we are here to stop the war on Russia and war as such. Each of us has our own unique part to play in this endeavor….” My sympathy goes into overdrive, but I am bound to say he’s imagining this bit. I am not here to stop the war on Russia.
Between the way of things inside Empire, and they way of things outside, many would see the Land Power obliterating the Sea. What happens is up to them.
It will be interesting to see what effect this has on Bitcoin.
Bitcoin is a ‘Project of US Intelligence,’ Kaspersky Lab Co-Founder Claims
https://sputniknews.com/business/201801191060881605-kasperskaya-bitcoin-us-intelligence/
“The Bitcoin cryptocurrency was developed by “American intelligence agencies,” Natalya Kaspersky, CEO of the InfoWatch group of companies and specialist in cyber security systems, said during her presentation at ITMO University in St. Petersburg.
Kaspersky was giving a speech on information wars and digital sovereignty. Photos of her presentation entitled “Modern technologies – the basis for information and cyber-wars,” have been published on social media.
“Bitcoin is a project of American intelligence agencies, which was designed to provide quick funding for US, British and Canadian intelligence activities in different countries. [The technology] is ‘privatized,’ just like the Internet, GPS and TOR. In fact, it is dollar 2.0. Its rate is controlled by the owners of exchanges,” one of the slides read.
She also claimed that Satoshi Nakamoto (the pseudonym used by its founder or founders) is the name for a group of American cryptographers.
The presentation also claimed that a smartphone cannot be considered as a personal gadget.
A smartphone “is a remotely controlled device designed for entertainment, work and at the same time for spying on its owner,” according to Kaspersky, who is also the co-founder of Kaspersky Lab.”

New Kiev law marks shift ‘from sabotage to burial’ on Minsk deal – Russian senator
https://www.rt.com/politics/416319-ukraine-minsk-deal-donbas-russia/
“By adopting the odious law on the reintegration of Donbass, the Verkhovna Rada [parliament] of Ukraine has effectively axed the Minsk agreements (the mentioning of which was deliberately excluded from the text of the law in the final reading),” Kosachev, who heads Russia’s upper house Committee for International Relations, wrote on Facebook.
He urged Germany and France, which are participants in the Minsk process together with Russia and Ukraine, to “give a proper assessment of Ukraine’s ‘anti-Minsk’ act that fundamentally overturns the situation in the intra-Ukrainian settlement.”
“Kiev has switched from sabotage of the Minsk agreements to their burial,” the senator wrote, adding that such a development was expected. “By doing so, it (Kiev) screwed over its Western backers, which now have a difficult choice to make. A choice between war, which will be an inevitable result of further support for the current Ukrainian authorities, and peace, which would require honest assessments and responsible behavior in the future,” he stressed.
The law on the reintegration of Donbass, which was accepted by the Ukrainian Rada on Thursday, labeled the self-proclaimed Republics of Donetsk and Lugansk in eastern Ukraine as “temporarily occupied territories,” while qualifying the actions of Russia as “aggression against Ukraine.” The legislation also grants President Petro Poroshenko the right to use military force inside Ukraine without consent from the Rada, including for reclaiming Donbass. A joint operative staff of the Ukraine Armed Forces is already being created to take command of all the military, police and volunteer units in the conflict area.”

Putin discusses consequences of Donbass reintegration law adoption with Security Council

Law on Reintegration of Donbass: Minsk negotiator advises to prepare for defense
https://www.therussophile.org/law-on-reintegration-of-donbass-minsk-negotiator-advises-to-prepare-for-defense.html/
The Verkhovna Rada has adopted a law on the Reintegration of the Donbass, choosing the path opposite to the peaceful political resolution of the conflicts. This was stated by the Russian plenipotentiary in the contact group Boris Gryzlov.
“The law does not mention the Minsk agreements, or guarantees for their implementation by Kiev. In fact, the path opposite to the peaceful political resolution of the conflict was chosen, imposed by the “war party” and welcomed by the president of Ukraine” said Gryzlov.
There is no real understanding of how Kiev intends to fulfill its political and other obligations enshrined in the Set of Measures endorsed by the UN Security Council resolution, the decisions of the Contact Group and the Normandy format.
“Instead of lifting the blockade and normalizing the humanitarian situation, we are betting on martial law. Instead of political decisions on the introduction of a special status of Donbass, amnesty and free elections – the military suppression of Donbass will ensue.” – he said.
Gryzlov believes that for the Donbass this is a signal of the incompetence of Kiev and a necessity to prepare for defense.
The new bill allows for the Ukrainian president to use force in the country without having to declare a state of war.
Ideologies are akin to philosophies; general ideas that govern individuals and societies, which can be derived and driven by emotions, unconscious forces, history and various kinds of spiritualities, both positive and negative. They are popularly referred to by the “mind,” and sometimes framed between the “body-mind-spirit” levels.
Religions purport to be from supernatural, divine revelations, usually initiated by an inspired individual and thereafter authorized by a priesthood of successors in the tradition. They claim to be above ideologies and philosophies, but if we use the sciences of form criticism and sitz in leben, we can see the human ideologies emerge from the revelation shadows.
Religions distrust science because they are based on faith rather than knowledge. The Love Government’s position, which I support, is that true faith begins only after full use has been made of the mind. Otherwise, we do a “spiritual bypass” of the mind, and jump prematurely into spirit, which turns out to be some kind of body-emotion.
Faith does seem to be primary, in the sense that we have to have faith in reason, if we want to make full use of reason. Faith enters mysticism safely if the mind has been adequately developed; otherwise we are prey to superstition and tyranny. Faith goes beyond reason but it should not contradict it.
I was reading Miles Mathis’ article on Bohr and Heisenberg, and their Copenhagen Interpretation. It seems Bohr confused science and mysticism for personal gain; and thereby caused great harm. Nature is reasonable and mysterious. We need both in harmonious relationship, which is not egalitarian, a modern ideology based on incompetence and cowardice.
My educational background is religious. I have been a priest and initiate in Roman Catholicism and in a New Age eclectic blend of East and West religion. Both proved to be corrupt, and so I have developed a Religion of Love which meets my needs for reason and the mysterious. Unlike God religions and atheistic systems like Buddhism and Confucianism, I have grounded the mystic into reason-based moral and ethical practices like not eating meat, keeping pets, monogamy rather than small communities and not embracing usury and interest and debt investment.
Ideologies start with first principles and develop their argumentation and beliefs from them. As the twig is bent, so the tree is formed. I am experiencing this now as I am straightening out my body posture at age 78, a rather painful process. A similar process is occurring with my mind; and I dare extrapolate that to the world, of which I am a part.
I start with Nature as my Source, not some kind of Super-nature. I’ve lived the latter for most of my 78 years, and have suffered the consequences and benefited from the experiences. Now I can retrace my steps and keep the best of the God and non-God systems, and develop them in accordance with Nature as Source and Love as First Principle.
I don’t think the great religious ideas like God, Incarnation, Revelation, Trinity, Sacramentalism, Morals, Christ, Scripture, Authority and Human Relations are wrong; they are just incomplete and await proper development. Jesus said as much, and so does a true Orthodox and Catholic Religion. We can do no less, if we are serious about stopping the Empire’s war on Russia.
Changes are a slow development; they start with opening our minds to their possibility; we need do nothing until we want to, and feel we are ready. Violent revolutions are not the answer; slow, incremental growth from within is sustainable, and carries over into the eternal and infinite–well worth the effort we exert in this lifetime, in my opinion.
I got up at 5 as the earliest inklings of dawn appeared. It’s now going on 7, and light is all over the place, despite the ocean fog that has climbed the 750 feet and dozen miles inland to Ojai’s Vulva Valley. I’ll post this later at the club with its internet connection, if all goes well; otherwise this will go into the astro archives to be retrieved by Jungian dreams or some such thing. Hope all is well with you and yours.

Denis, Jungian dreams? There is no such thing. There are only your and my dreams.
Jung showed how to follow them with humble scholarly amplifications and much much
experience and a mind of a genius.
You schouldn’d mind him as long as you haven’t study him.
Hi Dennis,
Here is an old song I have sung to myself my entire life, in times of pain, loss, boredom, frustration, whenever the spirit falters or is threatened with sadness and overwhelm. I’m still agnostic but if that early conditioning is inescapable—and in my experience it is as the Jesuits correctly, though manipulatively, contend (‘give me a child until he is seven and I will give you the man’)— we can at least put it to decent use in the inevitable tough times. We can only work with what we’ve already got and that can only be what we know through direct personal experience. My favourite version:

and the lyric:
http://library.timelesstruths.org/music/Abide_with_Me/
war is our raison d’être
death the sole purpose
of our meeting together.
If not for stubbornness
we’d stand a good chance
of cracking its grip –
tripping it up and
laying it flat.
but standing by a well
foolish like the horse,
not lifting the cup
that’s offered up, and
drinking clear water,
we could well fail.

Good one symnk, my muses have went in holiday but I enjoy yours.
