You think the Ukraine is independent? Think again!

This is a strange letter. Foreign policy is supposed to be handled by the White House and Sen. Durbin is a Democrat, so presumably he won’t undermine the president. I have to wonder how unusual this letter is. Yats must expect some action from Durbin.

I would like to know the story of how this letter was obtained. While no level of arrogance from a US Senator would surprise me, yet we ought to have some reason beyond an image on our screen to conclude that it is genuine.

Election of President Poroshenko ‘Fabricated’ – Former Ukrainian PM

The election of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko was fabricated, country’s former Prime Minister Mykola Azarov said in an interview with a Russian TV-channel.

“The [presidential] election was fabricated. There was definitely not 50 percent [of votes in support of Poroshenko]. There was a certain “rigged game”. Americans put their stake on him and the election was “made.” This election was absolutely illegitimate. There was no democracy there,” Azarov said.

US ‘Stealth’ Bombers Can’t Hide From Russian Anti-Aircraft Missiles

Russian anti-aircraft missiles can detect and hit US stealth bombers, Major General Sergei Babakov said, according to Gazeta.ru.

Neither the Northdrop B-2 Spirit Stealth bomber nor Lockheed F-117 Nighthawk can fly undetected from Russian missiles, said Babakov, the head of Russia’s anti-aircraft missile troops.

“The American ‘stealth’ planes are a publicity stunt. Even our older R-118s are capable of detecting F-117 [Nighthawks]. So, nobody has the hat of invisibility yet,” the Major General said.

US Air Force No Match for Russia’s Air Defense – Italian Media

The US will not be able to penetrate the air defenses of Russia, China or Iran due to the meager investments in long-range missiles, an Italian newspaper wrote citing a recent report by the US Center for Strategic and Budgetary Assessments.

“In the event of war breaking out between Putin and Washington, the US weapons will prove unable to crush the Kremlin, much less to hit Moscow from a safe distance,” the newspaper wrote.

US generals fully subscribe to this assessment, Il Giornale noted, adding that 96 percent of the weapons obtained by the Pentagon over the past fifteen years have a maximum range of just 80 kilometers.

“In other words, our air power is only equipped to deal with third world countries like Iraq,” where the US Air Force encountered no resistance and did not have to either penetrate enemy air defenses or engage enemy aircraft,” the CSBA report said.

Russia and China are a different story. Both have advanced air defense systems in place, meaning that US planes won’t be able to get close to enemy targets.

“That means that any war with Russia would leave us without air superiority,” the US analysts warned.

Note how Russia, China and Iran are considered the defenders and the USA is considered the attacker. In their more “specialised” media (IE: not the zio-msm bs for the slackjaws), the ZPC/NWO are clearly planning aggressive war of their making.

The above letter from Durbin very nicely confirms what everyone knows – it is a “given”. But what will eventually happen to the so-called “Ukraine” depends right now on things closer to home. Will the U.S. be allowed to have its way? Here is a broad view analysis of the situation published recently by Novorussian NEWS FRONT, http://news-front.info/2015/05/10/novorossiya-krax-ili-vzlet-dlya-rossii-aleksandr-dugin/ (in Russian, my translation).

Novorussia — the collapse or rise of Russia

Russia without Novorussia is no longer Russia. This territory is a boundary, a line, by stepping over which you can lose or gain everything.

The events in Ukraine in 2014 became a turning point in Russia’s recent history. At the time Moscow did not respond to the challenge then presented to her. And this was a fundamental challenge that required a clear “Yes” or “No”. Moscow did not reply with either Yes or No. That is, “not quite a Yes”, but “not quite a No”. As a reaction to the Euromaidan, urgent and quite adequate measures have been taken, and as a result the Crimea became part of Russian Federation. But Moscow tripped over Novorussia. In every sense. This presents us with the question: what is Novorussia?

The answer can be given on several levels simultaneously.

The union of Ukraine and Russia, as geopoliticians perfectly understand – as well as we, the Eurasianists do, and also do the Atlanticists in the name of Zbigniew Brzezinski – is the main precondition to recreate Russia as a Eurasian Empire. This is our historical duty and the main threat to our enemies — the United States, NATO and the West in general. However, in the post-Euromaidan situation, when Kiev was captured by pro-Atlanticist-Neo-Nazi junta, even a theoretical possibility of restoration of the “big space” was lost. This was an unequivocal success of Atlanticists. A voluntary union with Russia is no longer possible. This is a fact, supported by overthrow of Yanukovych and by all that followed. It was for that reason the Crimea and the Novorussia appeared on the agenda. The Crimea and the Novorussia are geopolitically one and the same, this is a retaliatory move, a reaction to the fact that as a result of the Euromaidan Russia lost prospects to unite with the rest of Ukraine in a common strategic space.

After the Euromaidan Ukraine crossed to the camp of the enemies, blocking the very possibility of our Imperial revival. Russia found itself in a trap. And decided: if not entire, then let half of Ukraine be integrated into the Empire. It is not as good, but is more reliable. We took the challenge and united with the Crimea. The Nazi policy of the junta gave us the moral grounds for this. Further, it was logical to start the battle for all of Novorussia – with the heart in the Donbass and from Odessa to Kharkov. Disregarding anything, just as those who staged, prepared and supported the coup in Kiev acted in disregard of anything. Politics is only the balance of forces. Strong can do anything. Weak can do nothing, or almost nothing.

In Crimea we acted geopolitically correct. As the strong ones act. But we did not make the next step. So act the weak ones. Thus we have not answered the question: “am I a trembling creature or have I the right”, just postponing it, thinking, probably, that everything will work itself out. Therefore, the Novorussia is a bloody uncertainty. Which first and foremost is the uncertainty of the geopolitical status of Russia itself. Who are we? A world power? A regional one? Or a subregional? Crimea assigned a regional status to our nation with a claim to a world one. The vacillations in Novorussia signify that we we are a subregional country with a claim to a regional role.

Events in Novorussia also become a test of who controls Moscow: carriers of our national interests or the sixth column, i.e. the Atlanticist network of influence. It turned out fifty-fifty, with varying success: the Crimea is ours – the Russian authorities won, the Minsk agreements – the sixth column won. Therefore, Novorussia has made obvious the geopolitical uncertainty of modern Russia: half a sovereign state, half a socio-political and economic colony of the West. (Good that it is at least so, for in the 1990’s there was not even as much…) Therefore, Novorussia is the disclosure of truth, unpleasant for both segments of our society: for those who feel Russian (this is the bigger segment, to who Novorussia means everything), and for those who curse the present course, wanting to open the gates to the enemies (“Echo” [the notorious pro-western radio station “Эхо Москвы”], and others).

From the point of view of civilization, Novorussia is an integral part of the Russian world. Moreover, it is the part that makes it whole. Based on history, culture, ethnogenesis, religion and self-awareness, Novorussia – from Odessa to Kharkov – is an integral part of the Greater Russia and is inconceivable in isolation from it. 20 million people living in this territory are Russian in a cultural sense, no matter who they are ethnically. It is obvious that in Russia itself live not only ethnic Greater Russians, but they are all Russians (except those of the “Charlie race”). When the Donbass rose up, together with it rose the Russian world. And swirls of Russian young people, whose existence no one suspected, departed into Novorussia to shed blood for the Motherland, departed without orders, by the call of the heart. And many died there. And sleep the eternal dream. Seeing in the dream Russia to which they gave their lives.

Novorussia showed the Russians – that we are. We all still are. They have not broken our back during those shameful decades of unyielding and vile nightmare. We are. Which means, we are here, ready to die and kill for Russia. And for the Russian world – Novorussia is the awakening. Apparently, this has somewhat scared the regime in Russia itself. For how to deal with the awakened Russians was clearly not on the agenda. Sleeping we are innocuous and harmless. They tried to extinguish the awakening. Partly it was possible, as giant weights were thrown at stifling the “Russian spring”, which started at Crimea. The balance of this line was brought early. But the line of confrontation is clearly labelled. The 1990-s have not disappeared. Those who governs us, hate us, and fear. It is a fact. It has become a fact of Novorussia. Difficult fact for all sides. We woke up, or rather, began to awaken, but still are too weak to assert ourselves in full voice. We, Russians, still need the support of the state, which, since May of 2014, has generally been denying it to us. This is a very difficult situation. It is also called “Novorussia”. A drain to “Russian spring”.

Novorussia is also the Donbass. As it is: its men, its heroes, its temperament, its temper, its style. Those are special Novorussian Russians — very resistant, often too bold and persistent, largely Cossack-like anarchist, freedom-loving and rebellious, as the inhabitants of border regions of the great Russia. It is upon them, the people of Donbass, that Novorussia stands. It is their blood, the blood of their children, women and old men, their sons and daughters that has sprinkled the Holy land of Novorussia. Without them, who stood up full height against the Kiev Nazis and the Atlanticists, nothing would work. They not only withstood the decisive days, they stand and stand beyond imaginable possibilities, enduring everything, without yielding positions. Any slippery Moscow manager breaks against this Novorussian Donbass fortress. Those are free Russians, freer than those to the East of them, and certainly than those to the West. Novorussia – that is a victory of Donbass, entering into history. This is a high symbol for all of us. Quite a feat — not in the history books, but here and now. Looking into the faces of these people of Donbass, the living and the dead, you understand how we won so many wars in history. That is so. With blood and special stubborn, somewhat provocative Cossack Donetsk look.

The West will be pressuring Moscow through a network of agents of influence, offering a deal — Crimea in exchange for Novorussia (Minsk agreements and their variations). If we cave in, it will begin active preparation for the overthrow of the current regime and the attack on the Crimea. Since they are the attacking party, our manoeuvre space will only narrow down. When will the authorities finally understand this? Maybe never, just as the communist leaders of the late 1980-s and early 1990-s have understood nothing and nobody (until now) and are not going to understand. As Brzezinski said to me: “And we simply deceived Gorbachev”. The same way Kissinger and Brzezinski may say later about someone else: “Nothing personal. Big politics.”

How will it end? If the enemies win – then with the overthrow of the regime and the disintegration of Russia. Towards that leads the West, while working out a whole spectrum of plans and strategies, all aimed toward a common goal. Will the planned gradual infiltration of the entire Russian society from top to bottom by a network of agents of influence, operating with impunity in all areas, including strategic planning, yield result, time will tell.

Meanwhile – neither Yes nor No. And it is on this that everything depends.

The salvation script in the spirit of “the Russians begin and win” is simple and straightforward. But the chances of its implementation, it seems to me, are not too large. Moscow says Yes to Russian history and sovereignty and is involved in Novorussia for real. It’s hard, scary, risky. But if we withstand, the new world order will collapse. This in the end, the historical performance of duty. We have not started many wars, but those ones that were imposed on us, we mostly won. Now we are talking about our native land — Novorussia. What can be sacrificed? Actually — everything. We start and win. That would not be just a new birth of the empire, it will be a spiritual awakening, a jerk and simultaneously the end of world domination by “Charlie civilization”. We break through the blockade and transfer the Eurasian conservative revolution into Europe and America itself.

We will liberate the peoples of the world from the oligarchical dictatorship of transnational capital, the interest of slavery and perverted minority. Europe is for Europeans, France for the French. Germany for the Germans. And the end of liberal democracy. Then the power will be transferred by the peoples – from the hands of the backstage world of the elite bankers and financiers, not representing anyone or anything except the devil. Transferred with our help. And Kosovo – to Serbia.

Novorussia is a treasured feature of both scenarios: of the collapse and the take-off. But even if the collapse is inevitable, and sometimes we are experiencing exactly this crash pretty regularly – in 1991 or in the 90-s and early 2000-s in Chechnya – the Russians should stand on the side of the take-off party. I wouldn’t be surprised if the current regime dismantles itself. I would be surprised if it does not dismantle. But this is not a reason to give up. Novorussia is our pole, our turn. We must give everything we have, and even what we do not. It is simply fate. There “Yes” and “No” are clashed in a bloody battle. And it’s already above calculations, analytics, forecasts and cunning plans. Those are footsteps of history. If “Yes” to Novorussia, then “Yes” to Crimea, “Yes” to Russia, and “Yes” to the salvation of the world. If “No”, then the power of our enemies will become universal. Russia without Novorussia is not Russia. No more Russia. And finishing off all the enemies of the New World Order will be a matter of technique.

When they asked Heidegger, what can save Western civilization from collapsing, he sadly replied: “Only God”. For someone who doesn’t believe in God, it’s really quite sad. But for someone who believes, everything changes. Novorussia, Russia, Russian world will be saved by God. But only if we ourselves are on his side and not on the side of Mammon, the TV or the thesis “one’s own shirt is closer to the body” [everyone out for himself]. God saved mankind. He saved each of us. We have forgotten about it. Remember — we will win.

The Euro Squeeze on Greece:

Food imports, medicines, raw materials needed for construction and manufacture, all blocked and slowed to Greece.

I predict China will ship them everything they require if the No vote wins (early results indicate that victory).

China can supply everything Greece needs.

The European squeeze on Greece is warfare done soft. The Greeks who embrace their slave-masters need to read some Greek history and rediscover their soul.

Looks like a fake to me. There are too many definite and indefinite articles missing in addition to an odd non-US feel to the ‘bureaucratese’. Not bad otherwise though.

Democracy is Dead: Brussels Prefers Corrupt but Tame Leaders to Syrizahttp://sputniknews.com/politics/20150705/1024239737.html

Brussels’ message to Greeks reads: “Your vote is irrelevant. We would rather deal with corrupt but obedient leaders, than honest ones with ideas of sovereignty,” Greek publicist Alex Andreou says.

Greeks and the people of Europe need to realize that they were twisted around the Eurozone decision makers’ little finger, Greek publicist Alex Andreou pointed out.

“[The EU] taxpayers’ money was pumped, not into Greece, but into failing banks, like everywhere else. Profit has been privatized and risk nationalized,” the publicist stressed.

Citing the research work released by the Jubilee Debt Campaign in January 2015, Mr. Andreou emphasized that almost all the money lent by the Troika and European governments to Greece since 2010 has been used to pay off private banks while barely 10 percent of it reached the people of Greece.

“It is not the people of Greece who have benefitted from bailout loans from the IMF, EU and European Central Bank [ECB], but the European and Greek banks which recklessly lent money to the Greek State in the first place,” the analysis stated.

However, it seems that this fact does not bother the ECB which has been “asphyxiating” the Greek economy — “the ultimate blackmail to force subordination,” according to the publicist.

Now major Eurozone players are “openly admitting” that their ultimate goal is a regime change in Greece and putting the burden of responsibility for Greece’s crisis on the country’s present government and Syriza party.

“The EU’s behavior over the Greek Referendum on Sunday is telling. Everyone agrees that corruption at the highest levels and chronic tax evasion were Greece’s downfall. And yet, instead of cheering a government that, despite ideological differences, is prepared to tackle those things, they have employed any unconstitutional and undemocratic means necessary to overthrow it. They are actively trying to install a government formed of the very corrupt entities that stripped the country like locusts for four decades,” Mr. Andreou highlighted.
