Geopolitical mosaic: Bashar Assad was put down as Gaddafi’s killer, and Obama worships Roosevelt and Putin
Bashar Assad as the informant of the French special services. Muammar Gaddafi could have been killed by the French secret services, who received his satellite phone number from the Syrian president. The ex-Libyan intelligence officer Rami al-Obeidi reported this to the British newspaper The Telegraph, Utro.ru (Daniel Arsenyev).
The newspaper quotes the words of al-Obeidi: “Gadhafi, using a satellite phone, Iridium tried to contact a number of his loyal people who fled to Syria under the protection of Bashar al-Assad. Among them was his protégé, who was involved in television propaganda, Yusuf Shakir. And it was the Syrian president who transmitted the number of Gaddafi’s satellite phone to the French special services. ”
Also, the ex-Libyan intelligence officer said: "In exchange for Gaddafi's phone number, Bashar Asad received a promise from the French government to limit international pressure on his country."
Last weekend, politician Mahmoud Dzhabril (at the time of the assassination of Gaddafi was the head of the PNS of Libya) made the following statement: "Gaddafi was killed by a foreign agent who mixed with members of the revolutionary brigades" (information RIA "News").
And the Italian newspaper Il Corriere della Sera writes that he wanted more than anyone to get rid of Colonel Gaddafi Nicolas Sarkozy: after all, the leader of Libya openly threatened to reveal the details of his illegal spending on the election campaign in 2007.
We do not doubt that we add from our own that Gaddafi’s death was in the hands of Western businessmen and rulers. It is also in their hands to transfer at least part of the blame for the murder of the Libyan leader to those whom they have not yet been able to kill.
Bomb against Hezbollah. The network has information that Syria liquidated one of the leaders of the local branch of the Lebanese Hezbollah movement. Reports about it "Lenta.ru" with reference to The Times of Israel.
The newspaper reports that Ali Hussein Nassif was killed in Homs on September 30. He and several other members of Hezbollah were allegedly killed by a bomb planted by representatives of the Free Syrian Army.
According to the publication, Nassif led the operations of Hezbollah in Syria and served as a link between the command of the movement and the Syrian president.
At the negotiating table! The head of the Ministry of the Interior of Syria, Walid Moallem, called on the opposition to dialogue. He stated this during his speech at the 67 session of the UN General Assembly, Utro.ru (Margarita Vysotskaya) with reference to RIA Novosti.
“I invite the national opposition to work together to stop shedding Syrian blood and sit down at the negotiating table. The doors of Syria, like its heart, must be open to everyone who seeks constructiveness and dialogue, ”said Muallem.
From Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Libya, the head of the Syrian Foreign Ministry demanded to stop sponsoring the militants.
So the head of the Syrian Foreign Ministry responded to the demand of the UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, insisting on a dialogue between the warring parties in Syria as the only way to end the conflict.
However, there is no opposition to the UN and to the Syrian government: after all, it is not found legitimate in the SNA. A spokeswoman for the Syrian National Council, Basma Kodmani, responded to the transition to a new political system: “From the very beginning, the SNA says that there can be no dialogue with the ruling regime, there can be negotiations on how to proceed to a new political system of power. We stand for any negotiations, not for dialogue with the regime, but for negotiations on the implementation of this mechanism under the aegis of the UN. What unites the Syrian opposition now is the agreement to overthrow the government in Syria and create a new political system in the country. ”
Thus, we will add on our part, the UN, in the opinion of the SNA, should implement the mechanism for overthrowing Assad and promoting the idea of creating a new government in Syria, which people from the SNA, SSA, al-Qaida and other influential organizations are ready to fill with their authoritative figures fighting forworld democracy Sharia, oil and dollars.
As for comrade Muallem, as well as comrade Assad, the sooner they give up power, the sooner they die. It is highly doubtful that in Syria there is an analogue of the Soviet Semichastny, who would persuade the local “Brezhnev” not to kill “Khrushchev”, but simply to send him to retire.
Conflict, not civil war. The armed conflict in Syria has not yet entered the stage of civil war, said Walid Muallem in an interview with the Lebanese television channel Al Mayadeen, reports Rosbalt. “We have not yet moved into this conflict into a stage of inter-ethnic, interfaith or civil war,” he said.
The minister explained the above: the confrontation in Syria goes between "the army and the armed groups, most of which are terrorists." As for ethnic and religious hatred, it is generally alien to the culture and traditions of the Syrian people, the minister said. “This is a new phenomenon that the Americans brought to our region after the aggression in Iraq,” said Moallem.
It must be noted that this is true. The Americans “brought a lot of things to the region”, as well as to other regions - and among the charred gifts, the people caressed by democracy have not yet been able to find anything good.
Bloodthirsty Russians from a base in Tartus. Recently, the TV channel Al-Arabiya, citing the "secret documents." told the world that the destruction of the Turkish Air Force aircraft off the coast of Syria was not Russia, but Russia. They say that the documents show that it was Russian specialists who sat down at a military base in Tartus and helped the Syrian air defenses to shoot down a Turkish aircraft.
The channel claimed that the pilots did not die at all when the car fell, but were captured and killed there.
Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs "AN-online", called "rubbish" this message.
We fight with somebody else’s hands, we don’t get ours dirty. The United States does not plan to invade Syria. America only helps the opposition in this country - in a non-military way. This was reported by the State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland, reports correspondent RIA "Novosti" Denis Voroshilov.
“We made it clear that we are looking at this only from the point of view of assisting the opposition from the United States. We are talking only about non-military aid, about education, about attempts to help those Syrians who are trying to regain control in those parts of the country that are freed from the influence of the regime, ”Nuland said at a briefing.
Helping “those Syrians who are trying to regain control,” is nothing else, we note how the formation of an alternative government in a part of Syria that is poorly or not at all controlled by the army of a legitimate government. This is a direct road to splitting Syria into parts (for a start, into “buffer zones”). Forty-five million dollars, which sent opposition states in addition to the previous 25 millions, will go to the collapse of the country in the name of sacred American values. And not a single American soldier will die this time in the name of a just cause. Afghanistan and Iraq still taught America something. (But even old warrior Senator McCain forgot about Vietnam, along with his friend Joe Lieberman, who was still calling for the bombing of Syria).
From the anti-Iranian sanctions only harm, but with Pakistan, Russia did not grow together. Many Iranian newspapers publish reports that Russia and China are in favor of resuming Iran’s talks with the 5 + 1 group, report "InoSMI".
For example, “Keyhan” cites the words of the Deputy Foreign Minister of the Russian Federation Ryabkov about the need to hold a new stage of negotiations in October. At the same time, the solution of the Iranian nuclear problem should not be influenced by pre-election situations both in Iran and in the United States.
Resalat notes the criticism of the deputy minister about the sanctions against Iran and plans for military intervention in this country, as well as his disagreement with the new sanctions, which, according to the diplomat, will harm the entire negotiation process.
“Jam-e Jam” writes that Comrade Ryabkov criticized Western countries for their inattention to Russia's recommendations regarding sanctions against Iran.
The Iranian press also announced the cancellation of the visit of Russian President Putin to Pakistan.
Tehran-e Emruz cites the words of the Director of the Second Asia Department of the Foreign Ministry, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for Afghanistan Kabulov, that the reason for canceling the visit is the lack of progress in the implementation of economic projects concluded between Moscow and Islamabad.
Resalat notes that Putin’s decision led to the cancellation of the planned four-party meeting with the participation of representatives from Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Tajikistan and caused great damage to Islamabad.
“Arman” adds to this that in Soviet times Pakistan refused to cooperate with Moscow, making a bet on America.
Many, we add, continue to bet on America. Yes, only the horse is old.
African Union vs Al-Shabaab. African Union troops arrived in the Somali port of Kismayo, reports Rosbalt with reference to the BBC.
For several months now, African Union troops have been fighting the militants of the Islamist group Al-Shabaab. On Saturday, the Islamists said they left Kismayo after a strike by the military. However, the army leadership stated that the operation against the militants in Kismayo continues.
Last Thursday, Rosbalt recalled, Kenyan troops supporting the Somali transitional government landed a naval assault force in Kismayo.
Fire on students. As passed yesterday correspondent ITAR-TASS Vladimir Kalinin, as a result of shooting by unidentified persons of students of the State Polytechnic College in the city of Mubi in the north-east of Nigeria, 27 people died and at least 15 was injured.
The tragedy occurred in the morning. The attackers broke into the rooms of students and shot them. The killings lasted several hours; neither the police nor the army units for some reason could not prevent the criminals. The leadership of the school probably knew about the impending attack, but also did not take any measures. Earlier on campus, a note was found calling to evacuate students and not to conduct classes on Tuesday.
Police suspect the radical Islamic group “Boko Haram” (“Western education is a sin”) behind the attack. Extremists call their goal the creation of an Islamic state throughout the country, and also advocate the abolition of the secular model of education.
These scary Japanese airplanes. The decision of the Japanese authorities to relocate the fighter squadron to the west coast of the country caused serious concerns among South Korea. As feared in Seoul, Tokyo began to increase its military power in connection with the aggravation of the territorial dispute with Korea, reports Rosbalt.
A squadron of F-15J fighters has recently been redeployed to Komatsu base in Isigawa Prefecture. Given the location of the base on the coast, which faces Korea, in Seoul, they are seriously worried about this fact. "If we assume that because of Dokdo, there will be a fight between our F-15K and Japanese F-15J, then the Japanese have more chances to gain air superiority," said the Korean defense expert Kim De Yen, Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
Europe is protesting. A wave of demonstrations swept across Europe: tens of thousands of people in different countries took to the streets, speaking out against the policy of reducing costs, reports Utro.ru (Nikolai Alexandrov) with links to various sources.
A large-scale demonstration took place in Madrid: a large crowd headed by the “Indignados” movement had already gathered at the parliament building. They demanded the dissolution of parliament. “You cannot imagine us,” was the slogan of the protesters. There were clashes with the police.
A more numerous but peaceful demonstration took place in Portugal, where the government is taking far more radical measures to cut costs. This country is counting on financial assistance from the European Union, which has allocated 78 billion euros to Lisbon. One Portuguese retiree said: "My life is coming to an end, but these guys at the age of 20-30 have neither work nor a future."
The protests were joined by the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. In Poland, thousands of Warsaw residents rally against government plans to raise the retirement age to 67 years, and in Germany, demonstrators demanded that the authorities impose a progressive income tax.
London attempt on an Indian general. British police launched an investigation into the assassination attempt on the life of Indian Army General Kudlip Singh Brar, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to BBC News.
Four unknowns attacked the general with a knife and wounded him in the neck on the night of October 1. It happened in central London when he was walking with his wife in the Oxford-Cerkes area. The attackers were bearded and in black clothes. The general said that he escaped death only because he resisted the criminals.
Brar said that the incident was an attempt to revenge for his participation in suppressing the rebellion of Sikh extremists in 1984. Then the troops under the command of the general with the battle took the main shrine of the Sikhs - the Golden Temple in Amritsar. During the assault, at least 400 people died, including 87 soldiers. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, on whose orders Brar stormed the temple, was killed by avenging Sikhs a few months later.
93 tons of gold in the form of coins and ingots. Moldovan MPs from the ruling parliamentary coalition demanded that Russia return to Romania the gold reserves removed during the First World War. With such a requirement, as reported "Lenta.ru" With reference to Moldnews, parliamentarians spoke at PACE, where a report on the Russian Federation is being considered.
Moldovan deputies proposed amendments to the document, according to which Romania would owe gold in the amount of "93,4 T in the form of coins and ingots."
The authors of the amendments were the representatives of the Liberal Democratic Party of Moldova Lililana Palihovich and Valery Giletsky and the deputy from the Liberal Party of Moldova Anna Gutu. The initiative was supported by the Romanian delegates Tudor Pantsyru and Viorel Badja.
Lenta reminds you that a huge amount of gold was exported from Romania in 1916. Romanian troops were defeated by the armies of Germany and Austria-Hungary. Bucharest fell, and the authorities decided to transfer the gold reserves of Russia (allied with Romania) for storage.
In the 1918 year, when Romanian troops occupied Bessarabia which was part of Russia, the Soviet government refused to return the gold. However, after the end of World War II and the entry of Romania into the socialist bloc, part of the exported gold was returned to Romania. In addition, the Soviet Union did not demand reparations from her in 300 million dollars: Romania had to pay this amount to the USSR in accordance with the Paris Peace Treaty 1947 of the year.
The “dream” is realized. As passed correspondent ITAR-TASS Tengiz PachkoriaAccording to the data of the Georgian Central Electoral Commission, according to the results of processing ballots on 3566 from 3766 polling stations (94,69%), the coalition “Georgian Dream” leads in the elections, which received 55,01% of votes.
The ruling party "United National Movement" won 40,14% of votes. No other party was able to overcome the 5-percent barrier.
Saakashvili - resign! As the RIA News", Georgian billionaire, leader of the Georgian Dream political coalition Bidzina Ivanishvili believes that the right move by President Mikhail Saakashvili would be his resignation and the appointment of early presidential elections in the country.
"Based on the fact that he was able to make a statement about the transition of the National Movement to the opposition, a logical and correct continuation of this is the resignation and the appointment of early presidential elections," Ivanishvili said at a press conference.
Answering the journalist's question whether the new parliament uses the procedure of impeachment against Saakashvili, Ivanishvili said that “it would be better if he (he resigns) does it himself.”
“By this he can save his face. To be honest, I don’t care about Saakashvili’s future, but with this step he will do better for himself, ”the billionaire added.
Exemplary elections. As transmits correspondent RIA "News" Maria TabakThe United States considers holding parliamentary elections in Georgia a model of democracy.
“The United States congratulates the Georgian people on the successful holding of yesterday’s parliamentary elections and on taking the next important step towards the democratic development of Georgia. Georgian citizens set an example for the region and the whole world by conducting an adversarial campaign, freely exercising their democratic rights and reaffirming their desire for a peaceful transfer of power, ”said White House spokesman Jay Carney.
Mr. Karni believes that Saakashvili and Ivanishvili now "must work together in the spirit of national unity" and build democracy.
It does not even need to comment.
The fate of "Belene." A referendum on the construction of Belene NPP in Bulgaria will be held within the next 3 months. This was announced today by the Bulgarian Minister of Economy, Energy and Tourism Delyan Dobrev, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Igor Brovarnik.
The minister explained that the parliamentarians will have to determine a question for the citizens of the country, the answer to which will be the vote cast for or against the nuclear power plant.
Russian judge in Europe. Russian lawyer Dmitry Dedov was elected the new judge from Russia in the European Court of Human Rights. Previously, he was a judge of the Supreme Arbitration Court of Russia. Voting on the candidacy of a new judge was held at a meeting of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg; "Vesti" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
The election of a new representative from Russia took place due to the fact that the term of office of Judge Anatoly Kovler, who represents Russia in the European Court of Human Rights, expires on November 1 of the year 2012.
Time "is not infinite." Russia and the United States can agree on missile defense, there is still time for this, but it is not unlimited, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told reporters on Friday, reports RIA News".
"There is still time to negotiate, but it is not unlimited, and when the implementation of the third and then the fourth and subsequent phases will begin as part of a phase-wise adaptive approach to create (US) a global missile defense system, the situation may change for us," Ryabkov said.
According to him, in order to prevent this from happening, Moscow offers partners to agree, to provide the Russian side with legally binding guarantees that the missile defense system will not be directed. Otherwise, the US will have to face Russia's adoption of a set of so-called compensatory measures.
In America, the same thing can happen as in crisis Greece. The United States needs to take urgent measures to reduce the government budget deficit. Otherwise, in the next 10 years, the country will be equal in economic indicators with Greece. This was announced today to journalists by the head and founder of the world's largest investment fund PIMCO, Bill Gross, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Igor Shamshin.
According to him, due to a sharp increase in expenditure items of the American budget, the indicators of the American economy may deteriorate in the very near future. The social and economic problems of the country cannot be solved by additional dollar emission, the expert pointed out, because the launch of the printing press will cause inflation.
“The United States must reduce government spending in the next five to ten years or raise taxes to the level of 11% of GDP,” Gross said. “If this is not done, the country, at a minimum, will cease to be attractive to large investors.”
“If we continue to turn a blind eye to the enormous problems and threats to the national economy, stemming from an exaggerated budget deficit, then by year 2020 we will be equal to Greece,” the economist said.
According to the expert, Washington should urgently solve the problem of national debt. Otherwise, stocks and debentures, the market value of which is rigidly connected with the stable economic development of the United States, can be “simply burned out”.
Over the past four years, reminds correspondent. ITAR-TASS, the US budget deficit has reached an unprecedented level — over one trillion a year, and the country's public debt has increased by almost fifty percent.
Damned capitalism. The election campaign in the United States has entered the final stage, and the candidates for the post of head of the White House are trying to do everything possible to win. Almost on all TV channels and on the Internet videos are shown, the characters of which fall down with harsh criticism now on Obama, then on Romney, reports ITAR-TASS correspondent Alexandra Bekreneva.
One of the trade unions supporting Obama launched a story yesterday with a fellow scavenger at a mansion of the Romney family in the resort town of La Jolla in California. This man is black.
Looking at the camera, an African American says: “My name is Richard Hayes, and I scavenge Mitt Romney. We are like invisible people. He does not understand that if we didn’t scavenge, it would lead to big problems in the field of sanitation. ”
According to Hayes, hand-cleaning 15-16 tons of garbage "leaves a certain mark on your physical condition." “I know that when I’m 55 or 60 years old, my health will be undermined. And Mitt Romney has nothing to do with it, ”complains a black scavenger.
For Romney, as for any multimillionaire, a cleaner is something of an exterior element. What a tree, what grass on the lawn, what a lamppost, what a garbage man. One thing is curious here: the Romney family, what, really, such a grandiose producer of garbage? 15-16 tons? ..
About Obama and about Putin. Kim Zigfeld from "American Thinker" (US translation source - "InoSMI") writes that the intensity and scope of "neo-Soviet crackdown in Putin's Russia look dizzying, even for those who predicted it. However, the cowardly and shameful reaction of the President of the United States makes an even more frightening impression. ”
The journalist writes from the Russian Duma, they threw out deputy Gennady Gudkov, and then made it impossible for his colleague Ilya Ponomarev to speak. “For Putin’s United Russia,” she says, “silencing Ponomarev is the same as for Obama’s democrats to silence Paul Ryan.”
Then we read about Medvedev - after all, only the lazy does not write about the split in the “tandem”: “Let us now turn to the Russian White House, in which the Prime Minister of Russia works. Now this post is occupied by Dmitry Medvedev, with whom Obama has recently eaten cheeseburgers in Washington and whom he proclaimed Russia's liberal future. Soon, however, Medvedev was tilted in tar and feathers and carried out on a pole from the city. Putin subjected him - a person occupying one of the highest posts in the country - to enormous humiliation, declaring that he did not consider the transition to constant winter time for a more rational use of daylight to be a reasonable step and will cancel this decision - that is, he will literally translate arrows hours ago. Putin is gradually canceling all the so-called reforms carried out by Medvedev when he was president. ” The journalist also sarcastically clarifies: “However, these measures, in any case, were only formally aimed at the development of democracy, and were not serious steps towards it.”
In addition, the American talks about Putin's attack on the Internet, which is about to be utterly utterly, somewhere on the same level as the most recent countries on freedom of speech.
Then she notes, referring to the opinion of the editor of the Moscow Times opinion and commentary department, Michael Bohm, that "from a religious point of view, Russia is a new Iran." Mr. Bom points out that “Putin intends to pass a law introducing a harsh criminal sentence — three years in prison — for insulting the feelings of believers.” In practice, this foggy rule can be applied against anyone. It gives the Orthodox Church a terrifying power, little different from repressive mechanisms that operated in Soviet times. ”
Finally, Kim Zigfeld criticizes Putin’s foreign policy. However, there is nothing new in this criticism: readers are presented with outdated news that Vladimir Putin presented a puppy to the president of Venezuela and called the elections in Belarus “free and fair” (it is understood that the Belarusian and Venezuelan “regimes” are identical to the Russian authoritarian mode of government), and at the same time "... decided to oust the United States Agency for International Development from the country - a key tool of American influence in Russia."
The journalist is right: what, not a “key tool of American influence”? And what, it was necessary to endure and hang around under the influence? In short, American journalists could create articles about Russia and more interesting.
But let's move on from comrade Putin to Mr. Obama.
“What did Obama do in response?” - Writes a journalist. “He conceived to outdo Putin and closed Radio Liberty, which literally served as the voice of America in Russia.”
Ltd! So is Obama really an agent of the Kremlin? After all, in the opinion of an American journalist, he “deprived tens of thousands of radio listeners in Moscow alone of access to at least some vague hint of the truth. Russia's democratic supporters were deeply shocked and condemned Obama’s policy of appeasement, saying that he betrayed not only their trust, but also American values. ”
But this is not all that bad Obama did, along the path of authoritarianism and asphyxiation of freedoms following the straight and inflexible course of his elder brother, ideologist V. Putin: “Meanwhile, Obama has gone even further. Through Hillary Clinton, he promised Putin to continue to actively fight against any Western economic sanctions related to the human rights situation in Russia and to discourage any future attempts to take such measures. ”
So that. And you say - EUROPRO and forty-five million dollars for the Syrian opposition. Yes, these millions and EUROPRO Obama gives and builds only for cover! Is it hard to guess?
Putin responds to mutual courtesy of Comrade Obama: "Against the background of such generosity, which Obama shows towards Putin, despite all his tricks, it is not surprising that Putin openly supports the re-election of Obama and vilifies Mitt Romney."
Journalism considers Obama to be a co-star next to Putin: “... For Putin, Obama is not only a weak and incompetent figure on the world stage, not only a politician who does not care about fundamental American values, but also a person who admires Putin’s authoritarian ability to implement any politics, what he wants, and is ready to help him with everything he can. "
In short, Putin is a great totalitarian ruler, and Obama is terribly jealous of him. And, brewing beer on Pennsylvania Avenue, 1600, the first black US president dreams of strangling the US population in the grip of the GULAG. This is probably why the Department of Homeland Security of America is purchasing hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition and special equipment, and Guantanamo is still not closed. As you can see, everything fits perfectly.
We read further: “... For some reason, Putin often admires Franklin Roosevelt, a man who could become an American Brezhnev. This president created concentration camps, tried to inflate the composition of the Supreme Court, did not want to put limits to his rule, and left the presidency only in a coffin. There is nothing strange in the fact that Obama also considers FDR to be one of his heroes. ”
In general, these two pray to the same god.
The journalist summarizes: “If Putin and Obama remain in their posts for another four years, the same gloomy darkness as Belarus can wrap up Russia - only Belarus has no veto right in the Security Council, a place in the G8 and an arsenal of intercontinental ballistic rockets. As a result, the United States may be waiting for a new horrible era of the Cold War, as well as the final loss of the reputation of a great beacon of hope for those who are fighting to promote American values in Russia. ”
What a ridiculous conclusion? .. If two authoritarianists, two comrades remain in power for a long time, they will finally find a common language, and the European missile defense missiles will turn to the right place. What kind of "cold war era"? As for the “great lighthouse of hope,” will not Putin and Obama extend the idea of the Eurasian Union to the Transatlantic, and the people of America, finally freed from the tyranny of capitalism, will not be happy to turn the states into a union of free republics?
The newspaper quotes the words of al-Obeidi: “Gadhafi, using a satellite phone, Iridium tried to contact a number of his loyal people who fled to Syria under the protection of Bashar al-Assad.

The Iranian press also announced the cancellation of the visit of Russian President Putin to Pakistan.
Tehran-e Emruz cites the words of the Director of the Second Asia Department of the Foreign Ministry, Special Representative of the President of the Russian Federation for Afghanistan Kabulov, that the reason for canceling the visit is the lack of progress in the implementation of economic projects concluded between Moscow and Islamabad.
Resalat notes that Putin’s decision led to the cancellation of the planned four-party meeting with the participation of representatives from Russia, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Tajikistan and caused great damage to Islamabad.
“Arman” adds to this that in Soviet times Pakistan refused to cooperate with Moscow, making a bet on America.
Many, we add, continue to bet on America. Yes, only the horse is old.
African Union vs Al-Shabaab. African Union troops arrived in the Somali port of Kismayo, reports Rosbalt with reference to the BBC.
For several months now, African Union troops have been fighting the militants of the Islamist group Al-Shabaab. On Saturday, the Islamists said they left Kismayo after a strike by the military. However, the army leadership stated that the operation against the militants in Kismayo continues.

Fire on students. As passed yesterday correspondent ITAR-TASS Vladimir Kalinin, as a result of shooting by unidentified persons of students of the State Polytechnic College in the city of Mubi in the north-east of Nigeria, 27 people died and at least 15 was injured.
The tragedy occurred in the morning. The attackers broke into the rooms of students and shot them. The killings lasted several hours; neither the police nor the army units for some reason could not prevent the criminals. The leadership of the school probably knew about the impending attack, but also did not take any measures. Earlier on campus, a note was found calling to evacuate students and not to conduct classes on Tuesday.
Police suspect the radical Islamic group “Boko Haram” (“Western education is a sin”) behind the attack. Extremists call their goal the creation of an Islamic state throughout the country, and also advocate the abolition of the secular model of education.
These scary Japanese airplanes. The decision of the Japanese authorities to relocate the fighter squadron to the west coast of the country caused serious concerns among South Korea. As feared in Seoul, Tokyo began to increase its military power in connection with the aggravation of the territorial dispute with Korea, reports Rosbalt.
A squadron of F-15J fighters has recently been redeployed to Komatsu base in Isigawa Prefecture. Given the location of the base on the coast, which faces Korea, in Seoul, they are seriously worried about this fact. "If we assume that because of Dokdo, there will be a fight between our F-15K and Japanese F-15J, then the Japanese have more chances to gain air superiority," said the Korean defense expert Kim De Yen, Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
Europe is protesting. A wave of demonstrations swept across Europe: tens of thousands of people in different countries took to the streets, speaking out against the policy of reducing costs, reports Utro.ru (Nikolai Alexandrov) with links to various sources.
A large-scale demonstration took place in Madrid: a large crowd headed by the “Indignados” movement had already gathered at the parliament building. They demanded the dissolution of parliament. “You cannot imagine us,” was the slogan of the protesters. There were clashes with the police.
A more numerous but peaceful demonstration took place in Portugal, where the government is taking far more radical measures to cut costs. This country is counting on financial assistance from the European Union, which has allocated 78 billion euros to Lisbon. One Portuguese retiree said: "My life is coming to an end, but these guys at the age of 20-30 have neither work nor a future."
The protests were joined by the countries of Central and Eastern Europe. In Poland, thousands of Warsaw residents rally against government plans to raise the retirement age to 67 years, and in Germany, demonstrators demanded that the authorities impose a progressive income tax.
London attempt on an Indian general. British police launched an investigation into the assassination attempt on the life of Indian Army General Kudlip Singh Brar, reports "Lenta.ru" with reference to BBC News.
Four unknowns attacked the general with a knife and wounded him in the neck on the night of October 1. It happened in central London when he was walking with his wife in the Oxford-Cerkes area. The attackers were bearded and in black clothes. The general said that he escaped death only because he resisted the criminals.
Brar said that the incident was an attempt to revenge for his participation in suppressing the rebellion of Sikh extremists in 1984. Then the troops under the command of the general with the battle took the main shrine of the Sikhs - the Golden Temple in Amritsar. During the assault, at least 400 people died, including 87 soldiers. Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, on whose orders Brar stormed the temple, was killed by avenging Sikhs a few months later.
93 tons of gold in the form of coins and ingots. Moldovan MPs from the ruling parliamentary coalition demanded that Russia return to Romania the gold reserves removed during the First World War. With such a requirement, as reported "Lenta.ru" With reference to Moldnews, parliamentarians spoke at PACE, where a report on the Russian Federation is being considered.
Moldovan deputies proposed amendments to the document, according to which Romania would owe gold in the amount of "93,4 T in the form of coins and ingots."
The authors of the amendments were the representatives of the Liberal Democratic Party of Moldova Lililana Palihovich and Valery Giletsky and the deputy from the Liberal Party of Moldova Anna Gutu. The initiative was supported by the Romanian delegates Tudor Pantsyru and Viorel Badja.
Lenta reminds you that a huge amount of gold was exported from Romania in 1916. Romanian troops were defeated by the armies of Germany and Austria-Hungary. Bucharest fell, and the authorities decided to transfer the gold reserves of Russia (allied with Romania) for storage.
In the 1918 year, when Romanian troops occupied Bessarabia which was part of Russia, the Soviet government refused to return the gold. However, after the end of World War II and the entry of Romania into the socialist bloc, part of the exported gold was returned to Romania. In addition, the Soviet Union did not demand reparations from her in 300 million dollars: Romania had to pay this amount to the USSR in accordance with the Paris Peace Treaty 1947 of the year.
The “dream” is realized. As passed correspondent ITAR-TASS Tengiz PachkoriaAccording to the data of the Georgian Central Electoral Commission, according to the results of processing ballots on 3566 from 3766 polling stations (94,69%), the coalition “Georgian Dream” leads in the elections, which received 55,01% of votes.
The ruling party "United National Movement" won 40,14% of votes. No other party was able to overcome the 5-percent barrier.
Saakashvili - resign! As the RIA News", Georgian billionaire, leader of the Georgian Dream political coalition Bidzina Ivanishvili believes that the right move by President Mikhail Saakashvili would be his resignation and the appointment of early presidential elections in the country.
"Based on the fact that he was able to make a statement about the transition of the National Movement to the opposition, a logical and correct continuation of this is the resignation and the appointment of early presidential elections," Ivanishvili said at a press conference.
Answering the journalist's question whether the new parliament uses the procedure of impeachment against Saakashvili, Ivanishvili said that “it would be better if he (he resigns) does it himself.”
“By this he can save his face. To be honest, I don’t care about Saakashvili’s future, but with this step he will do better for himself, ”the billionaire added.
Exemplary elections. As transmits correspondent RIA "News" Maria TabakThe United States considers holding parliamentary elections in Georgia a model of democracy.
“The United States congratulates the Georgian people on the successful holding of yesterday’s parliamentary elections and on taking the next important step towards the democratic development of Georgia. Georgian citizens set an example for the region and the whole world by conducting an adversarial campaign, freely exercising their democratic rights and reaffirming their desire for a peaceful transfer of power, ”said White House spokesman Jay Carney.
Mr. Karni believes that Saakashvili and Ivanishvili now "must work together in the spirit of national unity" and build democracy.
It does not even need to comment.
The fate of "Belene." A referendum on the construction of Belene NPP in Bulgaria will be held within the next 3 months. This was announced today by the Bulgarian Minister of Economy, Energy and Tourism Delyan Dobrev, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Igor Brovarnik.

Previously, he was a judge of the Supreme Arbitration Court of Russia. Voting on the candidacy of a new judge was held at a meeting of the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe in Strasbourg; "Vesti" with reference to ITAR-TASS.

Time "is not infinite." Russia and the United States can agree on missile defense, there is still time for this, but it is not unlimited, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov told reporters on Friday, reports RIA News".
"There is still time to negotiate, but it is not unlimited, and when the implementation of the third and then the fourth and subsequent phases will begin as part of a phase-wise adaptive approach to create (US) a global missile defense system, the situation may change for us," Ryabkov said.
According to him, in order to prevent this from happening, Moscow offers partners to agree, to provide the Russian side with legally binding guarantees that the missile defense system will not be directed. Otherwise, the US will have to face Russia's adoption of a set of so-called compensatory measures.
In America, the same thing can happen as in crisis Greece. The United States needs to take urgent measures to reduce the government budget deficit. Otherwise, in the next 10 years, the country will be equal in economic indicators with Greece. This was announced today to journalists by the head and founder of the world's largest investment fund PIMCO, Bill Gross, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Igor Shamshin.
According to him, due to a sharp increase in expenditure items of the American budget, the indicators of the American economy may deteriorate in the very near future. The social and economic problems of the country cannot be solved by additional dollar emission, the expert pointed out, because the launch of the printing press will cause inflation.
“The United States must reduce government spending in the next five to ten years or raise taxes to the level of 11% of GDP,” Gross said. “If this is not done, the country, at a minimum, will cease to be attractive to large investors.”
“If we continue to turn a blind eye to the enormous problems and threats to the national economy, stemming from an exaggerated budget deficit, then by year 2020 we will be equal to Greece,” the economist said.
According to the expert, Washington should urgently solve the problem of national debt. Otherwise, stocks and debentures, the market value of which is rigidly connected with the stable economic development of the United States, can be “simply burned out”.
Over the past four years, reminds correspondent. ITAR-TASS, the US budget deficit has reached an unprecedented level — over one trillion a year, and the country's public debt has increased by almost fifty percent.
Damned capitalism. The election campaign in the United States has entered the final stage, and the candidates for the post of head of the White House are trying to do everything possible to win. Almost on all TV channels and on the Internet videos are shown, the characters of which fall down with harsh criticism now on Obama, then on Romney, reports ITAR-TASS correspondent Alexandra Bekreneva.
One of the trade unions supporting Obama launched a story yesterday with a fellow scavenger at a mansion of the Romney family in the resort town of La Jolla in California. This man is black.
Looking at the camera, an African American says: “My name is Richard Hayes, and I scavenge Mitt Romney. We are like invisible people. He does not understand that if we didn’t scavenge, it would lead to big problems in the field of sanitation. ”
According to Hayes, hand-cleaning 15-16 tons of garbage "leaves a certain mark on your physical condition." “I know that when I’m 55 or 60 years old, my health will be undermined. And Mitt Romney has nothing to do with it, ”complains a black scavenger.
For Romney, as for any multimillionaire, a cleaner is something of an exterior element. What a tree, what grass on the lawn, what a lamppost, what a garbage man. One thing is curious here: the Romney family, what, really, such a grandiose producer of garbage? 15-16 tons? ..
About Obama and about Putin. Kim Zigfeld from "American Thinker" (US translation source - "InoSMI") writes that the intensity and scope of "neo-Soviet crackdown in Putin's Russia look dizzying, even for those who predicted it. However, the cowardly and shameful reaction of the President of the United States makes an even more frightening impression. ”
The journalist writes from the Russian Duma, they threw out deputy Gennady Gudkov, and then made it impossible for his colleague Ilya Ponomarev to speak. “For Putin’s United Russia,” she says, “silencing Ponomarev is the same as for Obama’s democrats to silence Paul Ryan.”
Then we read about Medvedev - after all, only the lazy does not write about the split in the “tandem”: “Let us now turn to the Russian White House, in which the Prime Minister of Russia works. Now this post is occupied by Dmitry Medvedev, with whom Obama has recently eaten cheeseburgers in Washington and whom he proclaimed Russia's liberal future. Soon, however, Medvedev was tilted in tar and feathers and carried out on a pole from the city. Putin subjected him - a person occupying one of the highest posts in the country - to enormous humiliation, declaring that he did not consider the transition to constant winter time for a more rational use of daylight to be a reasonable step and will cancel this decision - that is, he will literally translate arrows hours ago. Putin is gradually canceling all the so-called reforms carried out by Medvedev when he was president. ” The journalist also sarcastically clarifies: “However, these measures, in any case, were only formally aimed at the development of democracy, and were not serious steps towards it.”
In addition, the American talks about Putin's attack on the Internet, which is about to be utterly utterly, somewhere on the same level as the most recent countries on freedom of speech.
Then she notes, referring to the opinion of the editor of the Moscow Times opinion and commentary department, Michael Bohm, that "from a religious point of view, Russia is a new Iran." Mr. Bom points out that “Putin intends to pass a law introducing a harsh criminal sentence — three years in prison — for insulting the feelings of believers.” In practice, this foggy rule can be applied against anyone. It gives the Orthodox Church a terrifying power, little different from repressive mechanisms that operated in Soviet times. ”
Finally, Kim Zigfeld criticizes Putin’s foreign policy. However, there is nothing new in this criticism: readers are presented with outdated news that Vladimir Putin presented a puppy to the president of Venezuela and called the elections in Belarus “free and fair” (it is understood that the Belarusian and Venezuelan “regimes” are identical to the Russian authoritarian mode of government), and at the same time "... decided to oust the United States Agency for International Development from the country - a key tool of American influence in Russia."
The journalist is right: what, not a “key tool of American influence”? And what, it was necessary to endure and hang around under the influence? In short, American journalists could create articles about Russia and more interesting.
But let's move on from comrade Putin to Mr. Obama.
“What did Obama do in response?” - Writes a journalist. “He conceived to outdo Putin and closed Radio Liberty, which literally served as the voice of America in Russia.”
Ltd! So is Obama really an agent of the Kremlin? After all, in the opinion of an American journalist, he “deprived tens of thousands of radio listeners in Moscow alone of access to at least some vague hint of the truth. Russia's democratic supporters were deeply shocked and condemned Obama’s policy of appeasement, saying that he betrayed not only their trust, but also American values. ”
But this is not all that bad Obama did, along the path of authoritarianism and asphyxiation of freedoms following the straight and inflexible course of his elder brother, ideologist V. Putin: “Meanwhile, Obama has gone even further. Through Hillary Clinton, he promised Putin to continue to actively fight against any Western economic sanctions related to the human rights situation in Russia and to discourage any future attempts to take such measures. ”
So that. And you say - EUROPRO and forty-five million dollars for the Syrian opposition. Yes, these millions and EUROPRO Obama gives and builds only for cover! Is it hard to guess?
Putin responds to mutual courtesy of Comrade Obama: "Against the background of such generosity, which Obama shows towards Putin, despite all his tricks, it is not surprising that Putin openly supports the re-election of Obama and vilifies Mitt Romney."
Journalism considers Obama to be a co-star next to Putin: “... For Putin, Obama is not only a weak and incompetent figure on the world stage, not only a politician who does not care about fundamental American values, but also a person who admires Putin’s authoritarian ability to implement any politics, what he wants, and is ready to help him with everything he can. "
In short, Putin is a great totalitarian ruler, and Obama is terribly jealous of him. And, brewing beer on Pennsylvania Avenue, 1600, the first black US president dreams of strangling the US population in the grip of the GULAG. This is probably why the Department of Homeland Security of America is purchasing hundreds of millions of rounds of ammunition and special equipment, and Guantanamo is still not closed. As you can see, everything fits perfectly.
We read further: “... For some reason, Putin often admires Franklin Roosevelt, a man who could become an American Brezhnev. This president created concentration camps, tried to inflate the composition of the Supreme Court, did not want to put limits to his rule, and left the presidency only in a coffin. There is nothing strange in the fact that Obama also considers FDR to be one of his heroes. ”
In general, these two pray to the same god.
The journalist summarizes: “If Putin and Obama remain in their posts for another four years, the same gloomy darkness as Belarus can wrap up Russia - only Belarus has no veto right in the Security Council, a place in the G8 and an arsenal of intercontinental ballistic rockets. As a result, the United States may be waiting for a new horrible era of the Cold War, as well as the final loss of the reputation of a great beacon of hope for those who are fighting to promote American values in Russia. ”
What a ridiculous conclusion? .. If two authoritarianists, two comrades remain in power for a long time, they will finally find a common language, and the European missile defense missiles will turn to the right place. What kind of "cold war era"? As for the “great lighthouse of hope,” will not Putin and Obama extend the idea of the Eurasian Union to the Transatlantic, and the people of America, finally freed from the tyranny of capitalism, will not be happy to turn the states into a union of free republics?
