We all know the mantra by now: “Putin is in cahoots with the West! Putin is a puppet of the world oligarchy! Putin sold out Novorussia! Putin only pretends to oppose the Empire!”. We heard it all year long.
Then came Putin’s Valdai speech. It was not anything new, he had said very similar things in 2007: the world hegemony of the USA was unacceptable and it would be stopped.
But the Putin-bashes never noticed. They are very good at not noticing.
Now comes the G20 down south.
On greeting Putin, Harper actually tells him “I guess I’ll shake your hand but I have only one thing to say to you, you need to get out of Ukraine.” According to an Australian spokesmen “Mr. Putin did not respond positively.” (ex-KGB officers are not impressed by, or have respect for, petty street thugs and their swagger).
Merkel, Cameron and Obama threatened even more sanctions in indulged in their usual combo of lies and threats. Obama bested them all with pearl: “We’re opposing Russia’s aggression against Ukraine, which is a threat to the world, as we saw in the appalling shoot-down of MH17” (nevermind that all the evidence shows that it was a Ukrainian SU-25 attack which, in turn, means that it was yet another botched US false flag operation).
As for Putin, having spoken with his BRICS colleagues – who gave him their full support – he is apparently going to leave the G20 summit early and return to Moscow. Actions speak louder than words.
So my question to the Putin-bashers is this? What would it take to convince you that Putin is truly the leader of the world-wide resistance to the Empire and, therefore, the leader of the (truly) Free World?

@Nussiminen
Could’nt agree more. From the perspective of the west’s global imperialism, the left/right divide is completely fake.
Its simply a good cop, bad cop routine.
As a whole the West’s political left is just as imperialist as the right. Just for different reasons.
The left’s imperialism is predicated on humanitarian, human rights and protection of the weak; the right’s imperialism is predicated on power, security and business.
But they both boil dow to the same thing; the control and usurpation of other people’s societies and wealth.
The Intel on BinLaden in Pakistan was dead nuts on. Told the Seal Team Six guys he’d be on the third floor for certain.
The analyst (a woman) got it so correct, the shooter swears by her, and the other CIA analysts who told them 2nd Floor would be OBL’s son as that last level of defense. They shot him, calling out his name. Then went up and shot Bin Laden.
It went exactly as they said it would.
And that is probably the last time the US Intel was correct.
Saker,
Generally, your estimation is right. The US Intel is very faulty. Just recently, China moved two subs under their noses through the Straits of Malacca and into the Indian Ocean and one went way beyond to the Red Sea unnoticed. Probably used freighter, cargo ships, to screen them from satellites and the new P-8 and Orion planes.
And undersea, who knows why US subs didn’t detect? Maybe the are relying on passive sensors that aren’t as accurate or the Chinese have found a way to spoof them.
China shakes them up with some space and aviation things every now and then.
And we see that US Intel is compromised by ideologues and bad leadership. Obama’s recent appointments are worse than ever. And they have shuffled Defense Intel around, trying to cut CIA out and build a new duplication inside a gutted DOD.
The Russians twice told CIA and FBI about the Boston bombers from Dagestan.
The NYCity Intel is better than FBI and Homeland Security, but the Mayor, a full blown Cult Elitest is taking down some of their capacity.
Dependence on technology is one problem. And language is another. They have very weak language levels in areas where it really matters.
The culture changes over the last forty years inside CIA are monumental. And the entanglement with post-Soviet Intel from former Soviet nations, along with the morally weak Euros has weakened US Intel.
I am certain the FSB has a much easier time than the KGB did working inside Western Intel.
All they need is some KY and roofies.
Look at the Secret Service and Nuclear Weapons scandals, all human weaknesses.
This isn’t your father’s America any more. It’s your rainbow club, bathhouse salts gang.
You can’t blackmail them, but you can get anything you need from them.
Mossad called their male honeypots Ravens.
I don’t know the Russian equivalent, but I’m sure they exist. The women are Swallows.
In the covert wars of Intel these days, once they step out from behind a computer, it’s men and boys, literally and figuratively.
What the CIA does have is awesome case officers for operations. However, I don’t know who the hell is running Kiev Station. He, apparently, plays too much Call of Duty or Gears of War on his laptop and never studied Russian warfare. He will be using up every able-bodied Ukie male if he continues the insanity.

Anon @ 20:23 was speaking ironically. I think.
In any event the speechwriter is 37-year-old Ben Rhodes and he is also Deputy National Security Advisor. Check his bio and it is hard to see how he could contribute anything to discussions of national security or foreign policy. The same can be said for the rest of Obama’s national security team. They are not merely lightweights, they are utter nonentities. The few who might have some slight possibility of contributing something to the discussion (e.g.Kerry) are not in the inner circle and are basically ignored. As for academics and ‘Russia experts’ they are consigned to the outer darkness.
too darn old to create a Blogger identity
The satellite “evidence” of a Su-27 firing at MH17 are being given coverage by the western zionist media. If this material was legit, can any one imagine these ziofascists giving it coverage?
No way. Not their style with solid evidence, especially that they will have a hard time discrediting.
This material is sourced to western satellites, as well. This further argues against its legitimacy.
To me, it looks like one of those zionist smear campaigns where they “plant” dubious material they created and try to make a claim stick their opponent invented the sham. The zio-media has been taking such a line from what I’ve seen, that Russia is running a scam. Perhaps it might be expedient for Russian media houses to take a close look at who of their staff originally “introduced” this material. Especially those with connections to Israel.
вот так
Thank you Saker for calling Harper™ what he is -a petty thug. One who supports neo-Nazi thugs in Ukraine and whose entire foreign policy is dictated by Netanyahu.
Herr Harper has no discernable empathy and is anti-science, cold, brittle, vindictive, arrogant, petty, boorish, dictatorial and a pathetic amateur.
As the only Prime Minister to whom Parliament has held in contempt he is a hissy-fit coward that hides in broom closets and bathrooms.
He excels only in lies, smear attacks and divisive rhetoric. He is supported mostly by an equally boorish ignorant base and the worst of the right-wing evangelical fundamentalists.
Harper has almost destroyed Canada and Canada’s sovereignty.
In his own words ‘by the time I am finished you won’t recognise Canada’. One of the few truths to come out of his vile mouth.
What would it take to convince you that Putin is truly the leader of the world-wide resistance to the Empire and, therefore, the leader of the (truly) Free World?
Hmmm… let’s see:
1) Telling Obama that NATO troops in Afghanistan won’t be resupplied via Russia any more
2) Telling Obama that American rockets will need to fart upways as Russian motors won’t be coming anymore
3) and sending him to hell once and for all instead of shaking his hand.
This could convince Putin-bashers in good faith
It is time for Germany to send home the american occupation forces stationed there!
What if Putin were to publicly reveal all the evidence about 911, 311, MH370, MH17, Syria, Egypt and all the other MOSSAD “False Flag” Ops (like ISIS) at the UNSC? What would the UNSC, G7 or G20 DO, if they could not successfully contradict the evidence?
So, Putin has the power to bring down the entire Western “house of cards” (aka Theatre of the ABSURD), kill off the impending NWO AND expose the location where all the diabolical plots are hatched [Zionist Israel]. Why doesn’t he JUST DO IT?
Answer: EVERYONE (including Putin) is deathly afraid of the “Samson Option” – Nuclear Blackmail WORKS!
Nevertheless, there is only ONE FINAL SOLUTION to avoid ULTIMATE ENSLAVEMENT of the entire Human Race [ANNIHILATING FIRST STRIKE against Israel – to set America and humanity FREE!]. The alternative is CERTAIN “Death by 1000 Cuts”, already in progress and something that at least the Chinese understand.

9/11 can be sumarised in one simple equation.
3 bulidings = 2 plains
And this constant whining about Putin this and Putin that, and anyone saying anything “bad” is a Putin bassher, give me a break.
I dont trust the Duma for a splitt second, and I have my own reasons, and Putin is “just” the head of the state.
I am not a political virgin, so dont insult our intellegence with divertions, because the reason for me to suport Putin is that in this issue he have behaved imacualte and have been solid, despite initiale pressure, with I dont have any bad consiousness nor regrets about at all.
Then THE problem:
But the reason is more fundamental, its about WW3 (ww3 started 9/11 and have since then just escalated), and the rising insane level of hate propaganda witch I havent seen in my life time at all, and this reasent propaganda war against Russia is de facto unpressedented in its total coverage and rethoric used.
I refer to My country, Norway, just to give you an ex.
Every day there are several articles about Russians doing this and that and Putin is blamed for everything.
In moust of the comentary feilds, witch is tightly controlled by the “norse” MSM, the level of hate is staggering, and where moust of the “norse” incl politicians wants to slaughter Russians since Russians and Finns are “mongols” aka sub humans, you think this is funny, its not, the level is not something I have even seen. They want to kill you all, and some of us is been labaled as “terror threats” and should be killed as well. Remeber this is the issues the MSM slipps thure, wile censuring anyone hammering back, I am kicked out of all of them years ago, since they HATE oposittion.
I am their nightmare.
(just ask the hasbaratnjiks)
I have had securety forces in my house several times, some electrucuted our cat. My car started to burn while driving and I was simply luky to be in low speed.
I know who and why, the ZioNazis and the “norce” gov. whom is runn by a prime min. whom is from the same lounge of Freemasons/Bildenberger as the last one was, and the A.B. Breivik the rightwinged freind of israel, whom kille 72 young labor youths, and the Gov. is hailing the genocied of palestinians and some MPs want Israel to wipe the Arabs from the face of this earth.
Our Foregin Min, is a NeoNazi/Fascist/Bildenberger aspire and backs the Junta in Kiev by all means possible, since the Eastern Ukrainians are terrorists and even He hails the slaughterings of Palestinians.
They want the Arabs to die.
Ohyea, and they give the Nobel rice.
huh
Norwegians in basicly suthern parts whom are Khazars/AzkheNazis is an evil people.
Sick, sick sick people, just ask the Russians whom have gotten into a fight with Norwegian Chld protecting org. whom is hunting down Russian children.
I started this road 10 years ago, based on visions.
I knew the visions was about Russia, and the orthodox church, we are inteconected, and my last image have comed thrue, and from now on is all downhill to a great war.
My final vision was of a dark world, a planet without life and light.
No life as far I could judge, simpky a dead planet.
I know we are heading to that, this was planned a long time ago, the wars is going as far I know, acordingly.
I knew the moment Ukraina was attaced that the end game is here.
I am not a pessimist by nature, just a rockhard realist.
I will stopp comenting from now on.
I will just warn the Russians, our brothers and sister, the war comes, may the lord have mercy upon us all.
WE lost it.
YOU have to take the fight, because I will be jailed or simply managed to hang my self, a comon way of killing disidents.
Why bother to say, Awake, its to late anyway.
Time comes, to take a stand, it will be forced upon us either way.
Remeber this Russians, this time, the hunt must go on to the day there is NO zioNazis left on this earth.
Only then can WE breath free.

video of at least 15 “Red Cross” ambulances picking up Ukie bodies. Right Sector turns up for a look-see, gets turned back, at next village get destroyed with several 100 deaths. Location given as Mnahopole — this has to be wrong as that is deep in NAF territory. But there is a huge agricultural complex of that name further north, that may be where this happened, will come back with it when find it. This is a battle I think Ukie said 4 or 5 died in. NAF called in civilian contractors to pick up Ukie bodies as Ukie was just running and leaving them (fair enough can’t expect 20 survivors to pickup 100+ corpses anyway).
Can’t find much else on other cities atm. A site whose name we are forbidden to mention here has posted 3 videos of Mariupol action months ago, with today’s date and nothing to indicate they are not fresh (and comments turned off). I’d ban them for that if they weren’t banned here already.
” What would it take to convince you that Putin is truly the leader of the world-wide resistance to the Empire and, therefore, the leader of the (truly) Free World?”
That is a hard question.I admire Putin a great deal and think he has the best interests of Russia at heart.But I’m not sure what he see’s those “best interests” to be.But here is what I’d live to see.
1.Support Novorossii to become fully united.And then support them to overthrown the junta in Kiev.
2.Start the export substitution industries in Russia to free Russia of sanctions threats.Not just talk about starting them like I hear.But actually do it.
3.Purge the pro-Western 5th column from having power of any kind in Russia.Again,not just talk about it,but do it.
4.Continue on with the co-operation with China and the other BRICS countries to free them from any reliance on the West.And expand the BRICS to other countries.
5.Continue the reform of the Russian Military to where it can fully repel any NATO threat.
6.Re-invigorate the FSB to be able to counter the CIA maneuvers worlddwide.No more color revolutions allowed.

“He will be using up every able-bodied Ukie male if he continues the insanity. “
Making a strange association:
– I’ve recently read several articles about Ukraine being considered as a new Israel ( articles were linked by commenters here but unfortunately I didn’t keep the links)
– The oligarch are mostly Jews, some of them rabid Zionists
– so if there were not many able-bodied Ukrainian males left wouldn’t that suit the Zionists?
I sincerely hope I’m wrong.

Its Desinformation, so everybody(scientists researchers) try to falsify the claim of the western perpetrators and media. SO will distracted of the important questions.
Who did and why?
A personal comment about U.S. intel practice, from the late 60’s, likely still true. After nine years in an agency much in the news, almost unheard of then, mid manager in an important analytic area, I jumped at a chance (because of an engineering background) to transfer to the just burgeoning computer area. There was considerable pressure to “get on the team”, i.e., confirm what the powers that be wanted. Also, a military service could insist on interpreting data according to its “doctrine”, usually whatever would get higher appropriations. I don’t claim to have had any great intellectual honesty, but I wanted to get into an area where my work would be evaluated based on real results, not on political expediency.
I suspect the same conditions still prevail in the IC bureaucracy: find what’s wanted, and keep the money rolling in.
There is no left in EU, at least not in power they are all neoliberals. We are living in a post-democracy. Europe is filled with doves of course but it’s a cardinal misstake to think that the virtually nonexistant left got any clout in politics. There are some fringe left wing parties spread around governments, but still, policy is far from being influenced -they can’t even begin to temper the neoliberal virus. They might as well been bought off. Outside Europe not even China is left. Maybe Cuba. On that note US really should give back

re: Putin. He has his personal style i.e. he will negotiate until the cows come home if anyone is willing. But he also plays a role in the grand scheme of things which has little to do with personality. Remember the economy of Russia is ranked in the list of world economies only one above that of California. It has to do a lot over a large territory with a much catching up to do..Putin is playing for time to ready Russia for the least damage in the worst case scenario. During the airliner shoot down hullaballoo and Hate Putin campaign, he gave a 2:00AM news conference in which he looked as rattled as he ever will look which is to say still cool but rumpled. That was Putin at the crossroads of history in which he acknowledged what he was facing and the ends to which his opponents would go. He knows what he has to do. What Strelkov said about having to fight in Novorossia or fight in Russia is true, but has it really sunk in yet for the people not being shelled? I think not. but more nasties are on their way from the New World Order.

These lines gave me a good laugh.
The ChiComs have known for years just how starved for female attention most of our defense contractors and middle aged midlife crises’d Pentagon cubicle drones are. I don’t doubt Russia has been in the mix but it looks like Anya was hunting for bigger game. They made a big deal out of how amateurish that group of illegals were, but as VVP said they were ‘betrayed’ and besides, I don’t think they were the A-team, more like the B or C team of whoever the Russians have in this country.
I wonder what kind of Hegelian Illuminist dialectic game is being played, when an ‘ex’ CIA officer writes the scripts for The Americans to get US citizens rooting for the KGB, played by Welshman Matthew Reese and the plausibly Russian-looking Kerry Russell. Meanwhile, the Cliff Kincaids or other Agency trolls out there bemoan that Americans are rooting for the KGB on TV! Problem, reaction, solution — like the Agency abetting the LSD explosion of the Sixties via Timothy Leary and then having other proxies railing against the drug hippie culture!
In fact, when you read Peter Pomerantsev’s latest rant or book excerpt about Vyachaslav Surkov, the clever ‘5th columnist’ Chechen wannabe Boris Gudanov Dudayev, you can’t help but see four fingers pointing back at Peter and the West when he wags one at Surkov. Because Peter’s prime accusation against Surkov is that he makes everything in Russia fake, that the Kremlin co-opts and controls all. Gee, who does that remind us of?

MK Ngoyo, “snap shut” agreed with that.
Observer. “Dancing Israeli’s” was my final proof if you like. Before that it was a sequence of videos involving the director of the emergency response centre (who reported for work that morning on WT7). He presented to the commission and there are videos of him after that expressing disappointment. Mark Gorton’s 50 years of deep state is one of the best summaries I’ve seen so far. My experience with friends and colleagues is the same, in fact, many are getting fired up about ISIL, and if I said “guess who pays/controls them” it would be met with derision and scorn (exactly what they want).
@ Ann 04:07,
Thanks for your comment toward Kat Kan. It caused me to review his last three comments. I don’t see any impoliteness at all. In fact, I find his comments informative and better than the average here. I’ll be paying particular attention to them in the future.
On the other hand, your comment causes me to wonder what your objectives are. I do not understand why anything he has posted would offend anyone who is looking for information, especially Saker. Exactly what did you want to accomplish with your personal attack?

The global democracy exists in the minds and hearts of billions of people. And they would elect Putin their leader by an enormous margin. Who would be put up as his competitor?
None.
That says it all, doesn’t it?
The satanists can’t even field a “leader” who would get more than 10% without them “stuffing” the ballot box. Even if they took a factor of 2 or 3, he would beat them 2:1. In other words, a mandate of leadership.
This is after a decade of demonization and daily Media propaganda.
The blood-soaked Elite, romping naked or in their thongs at their exclusive initiations and get-together forums have no credibility.
Russia has held a mirror up to their degeneracy.
The freakoids have no standing because they have nothing but bombs and missiles and dollars.
And they can kill from distance but lose when they put boots on the ground, even proxy boots.
These Western blood sacrifices are like Aztec rituals. The latest are Kurd, Syrian and Iraqi in the Middle East and Ukrainian and Russian in Ukraine.
How more degenerate can it get?
Humanity, when it challenges God’s will and Nature, can plumb the depths of Hell. The Elites are prepared to travel to Hades to hold onto power.
Putin, alone, as leader stands in their way.
Russia and China stand together as nations to challenge this insane Elite Liberal nihilism and decadence.
Now, it is for the global populace to shout out their support of Putin, Russia and China. And to challenge and resist the corrupt, degenerate, murdering Elite Liberals.

Hello Saker,
Yes Putin is the objectiv leader of world contest but I feel some kind of “waiting for” world mass opinion. On my way I am defending Putin against NATO/US world leadership but I am sure that we have to push him away some conviniant political and economical capitalistic point of view. I fell Novorossia more socialist (in the deep real cense) and that’s in that way i could support Putin (drinking every day for). I would qay each time we applause Putin, each time we have to push him in a better way. Some feeling like that even not well express.
You, the Saker, must take care of that suceptibility when you talk about french past and put on the same level Marchais and LePen. Lepen has tortured civil rebels in Algeria for french industrial oligarque (far right).Even if we want to break barriers to fight against NATO/monay international cover, we have to hope the best for all.
MORE WAR NEWS
Thanks, Kat Kan. I’m hunting too.
Sad news. Putting together with an earlier video, it appears Dancer’s platoon was guarding the fire station and tower when it was hit so hard and long it is now rubble, with seven dead and seven injured. Dancer not among the dead.
It seems the 6th was the launch of a major Ukr offensive all over the place, and much materiel moving out towards Donetsk was seen on that day.
Offensives repelled were relaunched on following days at airport and other locations. If report from Fort Russ is correct, Donetsk had dug under its big guns, and was able to surprise and break up the major offensive intended there.
Here’s all news from the 6th I can find:

Personally I appreciate KatKan’s re-posting information from other sites, as well as others doing the same. Not everyone can get around those other sites, it takes a lot of time to cover them all.
Sometimes when I see something useful out there I think: I have to go share that over at Saker. Because people here will benefit from the information.
KatKan, I see you out there on other comment threads fighting the good fight to tell the truth. I appreciate that too. I think you must get short on sleep sometimes, and I’ve seen you push it to the edge of rudeness with Saker. If he bans you one day, I’ll miss your information updates, but I suggest you will have caused it yourself. I hope you’ll take this observation in good heart, I mean it kindly.
I’m amazed at what Saker puts up with on this blog, but I appreciate his forbearance. He seems to have a pretty generous filter, considering what must get posted. I suspect he’d rather let some trolls through than disallow what could be a valid comment.
For this reason alone I try to be extra polite with the man. I ask myself, What would Putin do?
Saker, about the Putin-bashers who believe “he’s yet another puppet of the NWO” or some such nonsense, there is one point we need to understand: because of lack of roots, history, references and clear values, the USA-led Western populations are going crazy. I mean, literally. Their world of narcissistic bubbles, of relentless communication/propaganda, of severing empathic bonds is crazy-making, which exacts a very concrete toll on their mental health.
The figures of psychotic cases have grown exponentially in the Western world, with the USA taking taking the lead.
You recently wrote about how dysfunctional their sexuality had become. It’s not only the sexuality: their whole psyche is dysfunctional.
America, today, is a paranoid country that sees “threats” and sinister plots at every corner, and can’t recognize something clean anymore.
To sum it up, no one can destroy references, values, whatever makes a human a human, without destroying oneself at the same time. Destruction and self-destruction are closely connected.
And Big Pharma is making a huge profit by it, so I don’t expect it to get any better. A sane population is not in the US Corporations interest.

Even though it’s late for comments, I must say that history records actions. And through observation of those actions, students (of history), can improve their understanding.
Russia – of the leadership of President Vladimir Putin, and his supporting political parties, and government and Duma leaders, has undertaken numerous actions that have slowed down the advance of American/Anglo/Zionist imperialism.
1. Putin’s recent visit to Serbia & reinforcement of links (a strong action),
2. his rescue of Syria (still not finished)
3. his reuniting the Russian Nation, from Belorussia, to Kazakstan,
4. His government’s defense of Russians (wherever they reside)
5. His strengthening of ties with Latin America,
6. His detailed speeches and interviews (clearly displaying the Russian Government’s MORAL superiority over the imperialist governments)
7. And backing the moral with a steadily strengthened Military.
*Saving the best for last.
8. His strengthening of ties in the Caucasius. (Georgian people – wake up!)
9. His liberation of Crimea (sweet – of almost incalculable global importance – and portent).
10 His moral and physical support for the Novorossiyan Patriots.
11. His resistance to the US/NATO proto-fascists
12. Growing economic and political links to China (and India)
13. – 100+ You fill them in.

Apologies.
How could I have omitted Vladimir Putin and the Russian people’s gracious and courageous assylum they have granted to American Freedom Fighter, Edward Snowden?

analysis involves looking at everything — EVERYthing. Then working out what it adds up to, what it means. Disagreement is not criticism or rudeness. Disagreement is just pointing out new data or different possible interpretations. We always have to be on the lookout for confirmation bias. It is hard to see in ourselves, easier to see it in a friend.
You say I know what you mean. I tell you the Saker knows what I mean. I know what he means. So it’s all good. Sorry if people who couldn’t follow every twist and turn get confused.
It’s all good. ;)
