Geopolitical mosaic: Ksenia Sobchak got rich again, and Soros gave Obama his pocket money
Syria: the bloodiest day. For September 26, according to various sources, from 300 to more than 340 people, victims of the conflict between supporters and opponents of President Bashar al-Assad wrote "Lenta.ru"referring to The Daily Telegraph. Last Wednesday was the bloodiest day at stories Syrian war.
On the southern outskirts of Damascus, were found the corpses of dozens of men of all ages. The death toll varies from 40 (data from the London-based human rights organization) to 107 (information from local “activists”).
Human rights activists also reported the death of a 14 man during an exchange of fire near the Syrian Army General Staff building in Damascus (there were two attacks in the morning of September 26). The authorities recognized only the death of four guards, four rebels and two suicide bombers.
Cameron found the culprits. British Prime Minister David Cameron put the responsibility for the war in Syria on Russia and China, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to The Times. Guilty of the Syrian war, Cameron called, speaking on Wednesday at the UN General Assembly.
Also, the English Prime Minister said that the organization “Save The Children” cites evidence of numerous cases of torture and murder of Syrian children. Government offices in Syria are engaged in such terrible things.
However, "BBC News", continues to "Lenta.ru," writes that D. Cameron did not name specific countries responsible for the conflict. However, the Prime Minister was clearly referring to the Russian Federation and the People's Republic of China when he said: “The blood of these children will leave a terrible stain on the UN’s reputation and, in particular, on those countries that did not help stop the heinous crimes, and in some cases even supported the on the Assad regime. ”
Following the accusatory part of his speech, Mr. Cameron turned to a solemn one: he promised to help Syria humanitarianly by providing her 12 millions of dollars. At the same time, he, as is customary in the West, called on the UN countries to comprehensively support democracies born of the “Arab Spring”.
No one in the West can understand that we’ll add that the "supported" Middle Eastern or African democracies will always find a reason to burn the American flag or finish off the NATO "peacemaker". However, we are far from the thought of the naivete or stupidity of Western politicians. The expression “double standards” has turned a blunt edge, therefore we propose a new term: “resource democracies”. Under it fall countries loosened by a Western strategy politically and economically, but rich in hydrocarbons. The chosen government or clans, remotely resembling local authorities, need money and will respond with pleasure to the proposals of the corpus "partners" who show genuine interest in pumping resources. “Resource democracy”, connected to some Western corporation or to several at once, begins to work effectively - and it does not matter that the terry Islamists are in power there. There can be no talk of any political or ideological loyalty of the Arab world to the West. Recent protests over rumors about the movie “The Innocence of Muslims” are the best confirmation of this.
Deserters no longer want to be deserters. Several officers of the armed forces, who had previously joined the rebels of the so-called “Syrian Free Army”, recently declared a break with the opposition and called on all deserters to return to the ranks of Assad’s supporters, reports Utro.ru (Alexander Korchnitsky) with reference to the Alquds Alarabi Internet portal.
The statement on behalf of the officers was made by Colonel Khaled al-Zalem, the head of the “military council” of militants in the south of the country. Al-Zalem participated in the recent Damascus forum of opposition forces. He said: "We declare our refusal to engage in warfare, making sure that the use weapons Syrians against Syrians does not solve the crisis now undergoing by the country. ”
About the recent opposition forum in Damascus - Read on the "Military Review".
Iraqi terrorists seized the prison and freed the prisoners. On the night of September 28, terrorists seized a prison in the Iraqi city of Tiklit, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to France-Presse.
According to police, killing four guards and two militants.
According to some data, the militants penetrated inside the prison after the suicide bombing of the entrance gate. According to other sources, clashes between militants and guards began with prisoners attacking the guards and the prison authorities.
About a hundred prisoners escaped from prison.
The attackers captured all entrances to the building and observation towers. Now the prison is surrounded by police, and Curfew has been declared in Tiklit.
Netanyahu drew the red line again. As transmits correspondent RIA "Novosti" Ivan Zakharchenko, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu explained from the UN rostrum where
“The line should go through here,” he said, drawing a strip of red on a poster with an image of an exploding bomb. “Here” is at the 90-percent completion mark of Iran’s nuclear weapons work.
Netayanhu “poserfil” on the Internet and shared the findings with listeners: “By next summer, with the current level of enrichment (uranium), Iran will reach an average enrichment level. And then it will only take a few months or weeks for Iran to get enough uranium for the first bomb. ”
The only peaceful way to prevent Iran from receiving bombs is the red line, Netanyahu said.
Translated from the diplomatic language, we add from ourselves, this means: only one road leads to the world - military threats.
Corr. RIA "News"Complements the message with the following information:" The US administration is noticeably quieter in assessing the Iranian threat. Representatives of the White House, the State Department and the Pentagon spoke of the need to give a chance to international diplomacy and rejected the idea of “deadlines and red lines”, forcing Netanyahu to engage in controversy with them in controversy and then publicly reject accusations of interfering with the American election campaign ”(end of quote).
Thus, we note, the aggressive intentions of the Israeli prime minister, no matter what “peaceful” goals he hides behind, and whatever visual materials he exhibited near the UN rostrum, leave Netanyahu alone. And in Israel itself, as you know, many politicians and military do not support the idea of bombing Iran’s nuclear facilities, especially without participating in the US operation.
"Friday salvation Libya." As transmits correspondent ITAR-TASS Dmitry TarasovToday, mass protests against illegal armed groups will be held in various cities in Libya.
Many civil society movements and human rights activists called for the dissolution of uncontrolled "militias" who had previously fought against Muammar Gaddafi, or for their transfer under state control, called for a "Friday rescue of Libya".
Corr. ITAR-TASS recalls that a week ago, on Friday night, hundreds of protesters stormed the Islamist base, including the Anafar al-Shari’a Salafi group, suspected of involvement in the September 11 attack on the US consulate, and forced the terrorists leave the city.
Then the chairman of the General National Congress, Mohammed Yousef al-Magref, demanded that the armed forces either come under the control of the central authorities or dissolve themselves.
Today, many in Libya fear that peaceful protests against the “militias” may result in a wave of violence.
Such is the price of democracy, we’ll add: the Libyans have recently fought against the “regime” of Gaddafi, and now they will fight against those who fought against it. Another two or three years of such struggle and state chaos, and people in Libya will understand how well they lived under Colonel Gaddafi, who understood what a political and economic balance is. They will understand this in the same way as in Russia after the first Yeltsin years, people understood that in the USSR there was - it turns out - a lot of good, and that to destroy - it turns out - not at all the same thing as building.
On the creation of Azerbaijani-Turkish armed groups. A proposal to create Azerbaijani-Turkish armed forces was launched at the Tuesday meeting of the Committee on Security and Defense of the Milli Majlis, the resource transfers "Fleet-2017" with reference to "Trend".
A member of the committee, a deputy of the Milli Majlis, Zahid Oruj, said: “Armed formations created in the form of a detachment, regiment and in other forms can conduct military exercises.”
The proposal of the deputy was approved by the members of the security and defense committee.
“The members of the committee noted that the creation of such armed formations can be carried out without adopting a new law on the basis of the existing law of January 19 2011, which approved the agreement“ On strategic partnership and mutual assistance between Azerbaijan and Turkey, ”said the deputy.
Bare chest for 1000 dollars per month plus travel and per diem. As transmits ITAR-TASSreferring to the Kiev TV channel "1 plus 1", the Ukrainian TV journalist, on the instructions of the editorial board, briefly infiltrated the women's movement "Femen".
As a statement of entry into the slender ranks of feminists need a picture of a candidate with a bare chest. The photo is taken right there in the office "Femen", on a cell phone.
The leader of the movement, Alexander Shevchenko, immediately sent a new girl to the first assignment - to participate in the action near the Islamic center in Paris. Tickets to Paris, hotel, taxi and food are paid by the "office". The sums are rather big: for every feminist it is almost 1 thousand euros per day. Moreover, the costumes were also purchased for the participants of the action.
A Kiev journalist found out that Femen pays around 20 thousand hryvnias (2,5 thousand dollars) per month for an office in the center of Kiev, and each of the activists receives a salary of at least 1 thousand dollars.
In the society of feminists, ITAR-TASS reports, the American Jed Sanden (allegedly the former owner of the KP Media media holding), the German millionaire Helmut Geyer, and the German business fra Beatu Schober are often seen.
The headquarters of Femen is now moving to Paris: Alexandra Shevchenko, who recently cut down a wooden cross in the center of Kiev, has left there (the investigation is underway). “We are an international movement,” said the feminist. “In France, we are opening a base where activists from all over the world will come: from Europe, Asia, and America.” The French capital will be a training camp and at the same time a springboard for organizing shares with strips. By the way, the motto "Femen": "Nudity, struggle, freedom."
Indeed, let us add, what kind of freedom without nudity. Neanderthals knew a lot about freedom.
Ksenia Sobchak again with money. Who said that in Russia there is no truth? Who said that the police and the courts are unjust and totalitarian? At least, if Mrs. Sobchak says this, her words will now sound unconvincing.
As the ITAR-TASS, referring to the press service of the Investigative Committee, the investigation returned Ksenia Sobchak seized from her during the search of millions.
“After the inspection, all the funds seized during the search were returned,” the SC said.
We are talking about 1 million 108 thousand 420 euro, 522 thousand 392 dollars and 485 thousand 325 rub., Packaged in 121 envelope.
"In order to establish the ownership of funds, as well as the possible fact of the tax crimes committed by the owner, a number of investigative and procedural actions were carried out in the case," the SC recalled. And they noted: “The desk audit of the evidences of tax evacuation K. Sobchak, which was carried out on the instructions of the investigator, did not reveal taxes”.
At the time of the investigation, in accordance with the instructions of the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank, K. Sobchak’s funds were kept in specially designated bank accounts.
Millions of Ksenia Sobchak will be transferred to her accounts.
For the world opposition, which is opposed to Putin and “authoritarian” Russia, we note that such a move by the UK and tax authorities will undoubtedly cause total disappointment. And the local opposition will have one less reason for the accusations of the authorities in suppressing dissent.
And Baba Yaga - against! The HRC adopted the Russian draft resolution on human rights, but America and the European Union did not approve it.
As transmits ITAR-TASS, Moscow expressed regret that the United States and the EU did not support the Russian draft resolution “Promotion of human rights and fundamental freedoms thanks to a deeper understanding of the traditional values of mankind”, adopted yesterday by the UN Human Rights Council, introduced by the Russian Federation. This was stated by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation.
More than 60 countries have become co-authors of this document, including groups of countries - members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation and the League of Arab States.
The resolution adopted by an absolute majority confirmed the thesis that understanding and respecting traditional values helps to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms. An important role in the affirmation of these values is played by the family, society and educational institutions. States are encouraged to strengthen this role.
The Foreign Ministry is convinced that “emphasizing the connection between traditional values and human rights will help provide a more complete understanding and recognition of human rights, will help build confidence and foster dialogue at the level of the international community.”
According to the Russian Foreign Ministry, “despite the position of Russia open to dialogue and cooperation, consideration of the constructive proposals of a number of states, the United States and the European Union voted against the project”. The ministry stressed: "The negative position of these countries, their unwillingness to work on the text and the contrived arguments against the draft resolution are regrettable." And they added: “No state or group of states has the right to monopolize the interpretation of human rights norms. Attempts to promote its one-sided interpretation under the guise of a universal standard adversely affect people's attitudes towards the very concept of human rights, make it alien to entire societies and segments of the population ... ”
It is clear, let us add, why the EU and the States voted against a doctrine built on traditional value approaches. Western gentlemen under the "rights" and "freedoms" do not understand what Russia promotes on the international market values. If in Moscow, despite all the efforts of world human rights defenders, juvenile lawyers and humanitarian organizations, the traditional family is still valued, somewhere in London or Washington, the interests of homosexuals are now at the center of attention and “rainbow” parades are held regularly. Actually, the epidemics of homosexuality in the West should have been expected: we are witnessing a revival of the most authentic Old African democracy. By the way, Mr. Plato, the author of the work of the “State” (the ideas of this treatise are now being successfully implemented in the USA - with the participation of the Department of Homeland Security and a tireless propaganda machine), was homosexual. So, before talking about “platonic love”, think: what are you implying?
Dumb American questions for smart British premiere. British Prime Minister David Cameron was unable to answer questions from American moderator David Letterman about British history live on CBS, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to The Daily Telegraph.
Comrade Letterman began a conversation with the Prime Minister with "stupid American questions": who wrote the patriotic song "Rule, Britain, the Seas!" And what the "Magna Carta" is.
Cameron studied at Eton and Oxford. However, he did not know who wrote the patriotic song “Rule, Britain, by the Seas!” As this is translated into English “magna carta” (“Great Charter”), this man also did not know. Unable to cope with the dough, Cameron said: “You caught me! Now my career is over. ”
It was he who got excited, add from himself. Next to Bush Jr., who did not know how to show Iraq and Australia confused with Austria or Angela Merkel, who once looked for Berlin in Russia on the world map, Cameron looks very much nothing. Especially since the days when Britain "rules the seas" are long gone.
The government approves, people are indignant. The Spanish government has approved a budget for 2013 year. Local authorities even announced that 2013 will be the last year of the recession; "Vesti".
How will this be achieved? A method known: officials gathered to increase taxes. More than 800 million euros will bring to the treasury only one new lottery tax.
However, the Spaniards cannot get away from reducing government spending. Subsidies to education will be reduced. It is assumed that 100 thousands of teachers simply lose jobs.
These unpopular measures cause not only protests, but also give new life to ideas about independence.
Catalonia wants to secede from Spain. As passed yesterday correspondent RIA "Novosti" Yuri Nikolaev, the Spanish government is ready to apply all possible legal mechanisms to prevent the withdrawal of Catalonia from Spain. This was stated at a press conference by First Deputy Prime Minister Soraya Saenz de Santamaría.
Meanwhile, the head of the government of Catalonia, Arthur Mas, speaking at a meeting of the autonomy parliament, announced that on November 25 early elections would be held in the region. In fact, they will become a referendum on secession. Mas explained his decision to hold early elections in Catalonia because last week, during a meeting with Spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy, Catalonia’s proposal to give autonomy the opportunity to independently determine the level of tax deductions to the state treasury was rejected.
Soraya Saens de Santamaría believes that the decision of the Catalan authorities to hold early elections, in which the issue of the region’s withdrawal from Spain will be put forward, is contrary to the country's constitution.
"The question of the possible withdrawal of a particular autonomy from Spain affects the interests of the entire Spanish people, so all of us should be asked about this, not just the people of Catalonia," said the First Deputy Prime Minister of Spain.
As for Arthur Mas, she believes that Catalonia could become a state within the European Union - something like Denmark, Slovenia, Finland or Estonia.
This source of the "Arab Spring". The founder of "WikiLeaks" Julian Assange, hiding in the Ecuadorian embassy in London, made a video call at a meeting of the UN General Assembly, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to the TV channel "RT".
The Australian criticized the American authorities and President Barack Obama personally for the persecution of WikiLeaks and the restriction of public access to information.
Assange explained that the publication of WikiLeaks contributed to the emergence of the “Arab Spring”.
“The history of Tunisia did not start in 2010, and Mohammed Bouazizi set himself on fire not so that Barack Obama could be re-elected,” Assange said.
The founder of WikiLeaks recalled that before the revolution in Egypt, US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton called the power of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak "very stable."
"It is time for President Obama to do the right thing and join forces that are changing the world - not in word but in deed," Assange said.
Obama, let us add, should probably clarify the following message from Assange’s speech: “WikiLeaks” is one of the centers for promoting the “Arab Spring”. And if you, Mr. President, have not yet realized this, it means that in fact you are against the "spring".
And nothing wrong with being against this “spring”, by the way, no. Do you understand what is good and what is bad with American double standards? After all, al-Qaeda is in favor of the Arab Spring - and Al-Qaida, it seems, is a bad organization and is placed on the appropriate list of bad guys. As for Assange, he now also became so bad that in the USA he was equated with Al-Qaida’s terrorists.
New Bin Laden. As the correspondent ITAR-TASS Vladimir Kalinin, The United States recognized Julian Assange as an enemy of the state, and the WikiLeaks website was a threat to national security. The status of the head of the leak service now corresponds to the terrorist organization Al-Qaida or the Taliban.
It is precisely as an enemy of the state that the American authorities classify Assange in the internal documentation. This is declassified according to the decision of the court counterintelligence documents of the US Air Force.
Assange as an "enemy of the state" can be killed, captured, held in custody without trial. Those who "interact with the enemy", according to modern American laws, can be sentenced to capital punishment - the death penalty.
Nakula under arrest. As transmits RIA News" With reference to the Associated Press, the US court decided to leave under arrest the alleged producer of the scandalous film Innocence of Muslims Nakula Basili Nakula. The reason for the arrest was a violation of the conditions of early release from prison in 2011. The court found it possible that Nakula could try to leave the United States and escape from justice.
According to media reports, Nakula was released from custody in 2011, with the condition that he would not use the Internet without the special permission of the supervisory authorities. He was also forbidden to use pseudonyms.
Soros threw Obama to the polls a million. As transmits correspondent RIA "Novosti" Denis VoroshilovReferring to the Hill newspaper, billionaire George Soros donated a million dollars to Barack Obama’s election campaign.
“Liberal Soros donated a million to a public committee Priorities USA, supporting Obama's re-election. Earlier, Soros had already transferred money to the liberal organizations supporting the Democrats for the election campaign, but this is the first donation made directly to the committee, ”the newspaper notes.
Since Mr. Soros still had some pocket money, he donated about half a million dollars to a committee that supports the Democratic Party in the upcoming November 6 congressional elections.
American dismissal. In Minneapolis (Minnesota), one Mr. was fired from his job. Instead of visiting the labor exchange, reading free newspaper ads, or visiting a psychotherapist, the dismissed Mr. went home for a gun, then returned to Chestnut Avenue and shot his former colleagues outside the office building.
"NTV" referring to The Huffington Post, it reports that two people became victims of the shooter, four more were taken to hospital with injuries. Having done his dirty deed, the murderer put a bullet in his brain.
The shooting took place on September 27 in the business center, where the office of Accent Signage Systems, located in the business district in the north of Minneapolis, is located.
LifeNews specifies that the gunman committed suicide in the basement of the building. City spokeswoman Steve McCarthy said: “Two died, including the gunner. Four people were injured and were urgently hospitalized. Three of them are in critical condition. ”
The police do not disclose the identity of the criminal. It is only known that several hours before the incident he was fired from the company. Accent Signage Systems, which is supposed to have worked as a laid-off employee, is engaged in outdoor advertising.
Such, we note, the realities of dismissal in the financial crisis. While Barack Obama and his rival Mitt Romney are eagerly broadcasting about the upcoming rise of the American economy, this very economy responds with a pistol firing.
