Dear friends The Saker blog has been under attack for many months, but we kept it quiet. Our webmaster and sysadmin Herb has successfully beat back all the attacks, but now the enemy has upped both the scale and nature of the attack and we are barely hanging on. I have two urgent requests: 1) If you are an IT security specialist (or can contact one you know) and
Dear friends, In a recent Facebook post Pepe Escobar wrote the following: The low down – on the economic measures, on the Hong Kong question, and on The Big Picture. All in a 5-minute read that… Posted by Pepe Escobar on Sunday, May 24, 2020 This is just the latest in a long series of compliments that I heard from many top commentators (most recently from Catherine Austin-Fitts)! The credit for
Dear friends, SouthFront has been a trusted partner and friend to our community and they also provide very high quality and, frankly, irreplaceable video materials and reports. They need our help and I ask you all to donate as much as you can to help them! The Saker Here is the full text of their appeal (including a video): https://southfront.org/southfront-future-is-determined-within-few-days/ SouthFront is a crowdfunded endeavor and operates only thanks to
Dear friends, My friend Gilad urgently needs our help. Please help him! The Saker Here is the text of the appeal he posted: Gilad Needs Additional Support November 26, 2018 / Gilad Atzmon Dear friends In March I was sued for libel by the chairman of the Campaign Against Anti Semitism (CAA), Gideon Falter, for suggesting that ‘Antisemitism is a business plan.’ As CAA has explained its objective, the lawsuit was
The History of Orthodox People website has been active and growing for the last several months. Its mission is to enlighten not just the Western, primarily English-speaking world, but men and women of goodwill of all backgrounds and everywhere with the theological thought and spiritual heritage of Christian Orthodoxy. West-centric surveys of history and religion all too frequently neglect to mention Orthodoxy, the Christian Church whose teaching and practice go
Dear friends, Since you have been so helpful to me, I decided to mention another issue I would need help with. Computer hardware. For the past 4 years I have been using a small Linux box called a Penguin Wee 4th Gen GNU / Linux Desktop with some decent CPUs (4x 3-4130T CPU @ 2.90GHz) but a very weak integrated graphics controller and an equally bad sound card. I do
Dear friends, The time has come for the summer fundraiser. I don’t particularly like it, but the truth is that it is vital. To use my favorite metaphor – I need you to send me the “ammunition” needed to continue the battle, I simply can’t do it on my own. I will say that so far we have done amazingly well. As I have already mentioned elsewhere, the main blog
Dear friends, I was hoping to be able to put off this post, in fact I did begin and then sent it to trash it several times. But now things are getting critical. I need your help or something will have to change, and not for the better. Let me explain: You must have noticed that even though the blog is full of features, everything loads really well and really
Dear friends, I am looking for a few people who are comfortable using WordPress and who could donate some of their time to train others on how to use (not set up!) WordPress: creating a new post, uploading or copying a text file, adding media, formatting the post, add keywords, chose a category and add a featured image. Straightforward stuff but something I don’t have the time to do myself.
Dear friends, I wanted to draw you attention to an interesting project looking for crowdfunding on Idiegogo: it is called “Misrepresenting Russia – This is a unique opportunity to be a part of a myth-busting, honest documentary series about Russia“. Take a look at all the details on the projects Indiegogo’s page: https://t.co/fmChCMtUol I spoke twice to the author of this series of documentaries and it looks to me that
Note by the Saker: I would compare the importance of the events in Srebrenica only to 9/11 in terms of the immense consequences resulting from them and in terms of the determined efforts made by the Empire to conceal the reality of what took place in 1995 and 2001. The big difference is that while many people do care about the truth about 9/11, most people think that Srebrenica is
Dear friends, I always hate asking for money, but when it is for somebody else, then I feel no such compunction or need to apologize for it. So I will be as blunt as I can: SouthFront needs money *NOW*. It is easy to forget that they are the ones producing the excellent daily videos with news, analysis, conflict reports and special maps and infographics which they kindly share with
Dear friends, I need your help. Specifically, I are looking for two kinds of volunteers: MODERATORS: I need at least two, ideally three, moderators to help moderate the comments in this blog. Several of our moderators are currently unable to help us due to their personal, real life, issues. We especially need moderators to fill the following time slots: 5PM/1700 to 9PM/2100 GMT 12AM/0000 to 4AM/0400 GMT If you can
If you are having trouble viewing this video, go to the Youtube version at https://www.youtube.com/user/crimeanfront/videos Message from SouthFront: Dear readers, The essence of SouthFront’s approach is a free distribution of content such as you will never find for free from other sources. Our team showed, is showing and will show that ordinary people, volunteers equipped with the newest ideas and technologies can do what only government- and oligarchy-linked organizations were
Dear friends, I have not been bringing up this topic since July 4th and instead I have posted appeals for others. As a result, donations have, yet again, come to an almost complete fullstop (thanks to the few who did send them in!!!!). In contrast, the bills have continued to come in with an enviable regularity. As a result, I am again “drowning” in bills in struggling to make ends
Dear friends, Our brother-in-arms at SouthFront have been sending us daily reports about the war in the Ukraine. They are also the folks who produced truly excellent reports such as Foreign Policy Diary – The US-China Standoff in the Indo-Asia-Pacific Region and special high quality maps such as the Russian Military Map, July 22 – August 2, 2015 I posted today. The contribution of SouthFront to this blog simply cannot
It’s this time of the month again – I am going to remind you all, as per your own instructions, that I badly need your donations to work on this blog. As I wrote a while ago, Please don’t send me into the (informational) battle without ammunition! Right how, the ammo is running out. At least mine is. While my adversaries enjoy billion dollar budgets! So, friends, please do your
Dear friends and readers,Today I am writing to you to appeal for your help. By now it must be clear to everybody that what is taking place today is not just some “Cold War v2” or some “East-West tensions”, but a full-scale total war between not only Russia and the USA, but between the entire AngloZionist Empire and the Resistance (lead by Russia and the BRICS). Make no mistake, this
Dear friends, While we are all on the edge waiting for the news from Novorossia to change any minute, we’d like to ask your help with the two projects that the Russian Saker team is currently undertaking: 1. Our Russian partners from polismi.ru site asked us about the Ferguson crisis in the USA. Can those of you who live in the US, write something up for us or send us
Dear fellow followers of The VineyardSaker, As you know our community of volunteer translators is growing. Almost every day we receive offers from people around the world to help us spread Saker’s articles around. We are truly growing into a great community of like-minded people who want to do something to spread just and fair information to the world. All our linguistic teams work very closely together to produce important
