Results of the week. “Excuse me, aren't you crazy?” - “No. I have a certificate "
The Russian authorities decided to temporarily suspend the receipt of tranches to Ukraine in order to wait for, and who will replace Nikolai Azarov as the Ukrainian prime minister. And such a decision already looks much more justified than the words that, they say, we will give the money to everyone, despite their political views and economic potentials — at least for Tyagnibok ...
A serious discussion broke out around whether to buy another batch of debt bonds (liabilities) from Ukraine, transferring to Kiev 2 billion dollars - the second tranche - or not? Moscow says that she, it seems, would transfer money, but only to whom? For some time there is no full-fledged government in Ukraine, the president, the poor fellow, caught the flu (I hope that the usual, rather than some pigeon after meeting with European "intermediaries" and representatives of the "opposition"), power in some regions of western Ukraine or blocked , or altogether swept away by the youngsters under frank fascist slogans. As they say: to whom to give something? ..
It seems that Russia’s disease should be supported by Yanukovych (in the absence of a better option), but Viktor Fedorovich continues a non-meat and non-meat policy that is criticized even in the Ukrainian army. Ministry of Defense of Ukraine:
And the "leader" is silent, all the laws on the amnesty of the "maydanutyh" signs. “One grandmother said,” he is until the end of the Olympiad, you see, so amorphous, and then, ka-a-ak, you know, stomp his foot, ka-a-ak bang his fist! .. But until the end of the Olympiad you need to resist , and the situation in Ukraine today is such that no guarantees are given to Viktor Fedorovich ...

Combat combat shooting of the Triumph C-400 regimental complete set of ground-to-ground missiles at the Kapustin Yar training range in the Astrakhan Region. The press service of the Ministry of Defense: The combat crews of the air defense compound, who arrived at the Kapustin Yar training ground from the Moscow region, conducted heavy fire fighting maneuvers of the C-400 Triumf and highly accurate 10 target rockets simulating ballistic, low-altitude and operational-tactical conditional air targets in the entire range of altitudes and speeds.
ZRMS C-400 "Triumph" was put into service in April 2007. During this time, numerous combat test shooting was carried out, each time confirming the effectiveness of this type. weapons. This time shooting was practiced at air temperatures around -25-t Celsius. Extremely frosty weather did not prevent either the complexes or the people in their shoulder straps to complete the assigned tasks. After the test, two more new Triumph complexes were transferred to the troops.

Enemy soldier - pneumonia?
According to official data, 2014 soldiers came to the Voronezh military hospital in January of 688, of whom about a hundred were laid down with a diagnosis of pneumonia.
On January 29, the Ombudsman for the Voronezh Region, Tatyana Zrazhevskaya, visited the very special part where the outbreak of pneumonia was recorded. According to Zrazhevskaya, the conditions for the servicemen are ideal. The temperature condition in the premises is maintained at 21 degrees, there is a room for drying clothes, where the temperature of the equipment is 45 — 50 degrees. There are two souls per company. In addition, quartzing is constantly held in the premises, and conscripts are given a vitamin cocktail every day - a mixture of syrup with a decoction of linden and other useful herbs. True, in fact, this is not all that the Ombudsman stated.
According to the latest data, a pneumonia diagnosis was confirmed in almost four hundred servicemen in the training unit of the Armored Army Service (military unit 20115) of the city of Ostrogozhsk (Voronezh Region). One of them - Ilya Morozov from the Vologda region - on January 20 died in the military hospital of Podolsk, where the January 8 was taken. On the same day, the recruit of one of the Moscow Region military units, Pavel Kalinin, died of a similar diagnosis.
This information is provided by the Chief Military Prosecutor’s Office and the Main Military Medical Directorate, whose officers conducted an inspection. It turned out that if the thermal regime in the rooms is quite comfortable (after all, the army is army, so that not only in the warm barracks to sit), then the work of the medical service of the large military unit was completely paralyzed. Both Zrazhevskaya, and prosecutors, and GVMU staff found that just before the start of the epidemic (late December 2013) for some reason committed suicide, the chief medical officer of the military unit, captain Zolotavin, and therefore neither about disease prevention, nor about their effective treatment speech at the proper level was not conducted. That is why the disease, which has found for itself a few, let's say, victims among the recruits of the unit, quickly spread to other military personnel. I had to use the power of Voronezh and other hospitals, but too much time was lost. After such losses, for obvious reasons, some “vitamin cocktails” and linden broths mentioned by Zrazhevskaya are definitely not enough ... As they say, it is too late to drink Borjomi ... Especially since this is not the first case of a massive illness of soldiers with pneumonia in Ostrogozhsk.
It turned out that at one time the town had its own military hospital, but he was sent under the “optimization” knife. In general, a whole chain of negative events against the background of outright negligence led to tragic consequences. Who is responsible for the life and health of soldiers, and will they answer? - this is a separate question ...

Summit gallop pace
The other day, perhaps the shortest Russia-EU summit has been held in the Belgian capital lately. Several previous summits of this type lasted for two days, often with a very rich "gastronomic" program - common lunches and dinners. This time they decided to keep within one day and in addition to abandon any “gastronomy”. It is a mystery which side has come up with such an initiative, but this is by no means the main topic for the discussion of the past summit. Less time allocated for its conduct allowed, let's say, to consolidate the agenda. True, here, too, you need to immediately make a reservation, since there was no separate agenda. The summit was held in a completely improvised mode and touched on both the interaction of Russia and the EU in a bilateral format and within the WTO, and the situation in Ukraine.
“Galloping across Europe” is just such a description of the Russia-EU summit that can be given. In principle, a special talk room here was, they say, to nothing. All those present knew very well that from their positions in the near future they wouldn’t be turned off. Putin knew very well that the EU is not going to abolish the visa regime with Russia, nor is it going to build a “single humanitarian and economic space from Lisbon to the Pacific Ocean,” even if “ask for it very much”. Barroso and Rompuy knew how Putin would relate to the “mediation” of Mrs. Ashton in the Ukrainian conflict, and how he generally treats those who flood the conflict with gasoline. They know everything about each other, they understand everything, and therefore the summits are getting shorter ... Apparently, soon the Russia-EU summit will look something like this:
Hi, Barroso; hello rompay! How are you? How is the baroness? All the same on Independence tours? .. Barak something to call? Yeah ... Yeah ... you dress warmly here - it’s somehow damp ... Well, now you’ll sit with us, sit, talk, take a steam bath ... Although it’s dangerous with you in the bath ... Okay, we’ll just talk ... Come on, peasants, see you soon! ..

Buckling ruble
The ruble exchange rate continues to decline against world reserve currencies - the dollar and the euro. Today history with the ruble exchange rate can be called using Lenin's quote: a step forward, two steps back. The ruble falls by more than 40-50 kopecks, after which it wins 10-15 kopecks for a couple of days. In connection with the fall of the ruble, many entrepreneurs are thinking about what this will ultimately lead them to - to profit or to losses.
Closer to the weekend, it turned out that the ruble exchange rate against the dollar and the euro behaves completely unpredictable. On Friday, in the final phase of trading, the ruble suddenly recovered almost all of its losses from the previous day against the euro (which is more than 45 kopecks). The ruble dollar rate has changed only slightly. One gets the impression that these “roller coasters” of the course are a typical speculation, which its sole purpose is to finally bury the idea of the ruble as a reserve currency, at least regional. Apparently, the holders of large “packages” of foreign banknotes (first of all, dollars and euros, of course) with regard to the “reserve” of the ruble have their plans ...
And if speculators got down to business, the main thing is not to give them “meat” - that is, not to run to the exchangers in order to buy “full pants” euros and dollars, if such an opportunity exists. True, to read our liberal economists or the usual "all-pro-pals" (analogy, you know what expression), it’s time to start heating the stove with rubles, for the dollar and only the dollar will save Russia and the world ... Well, it’s true that it saves ... At least those who continue to print their candy wrappers with a trillion-dollar debt hole in the economy and persistently argue that there is no need for candy wrappers in any kind of security (gold, oil, etc.), because they are money for “freedom and democracy” ...

We are a commodity country, and the price of our goods depends on the exchanges and is linked to the currency. Anyway, we will no longer receive in currency or less. As a result, the people will lose. Buying imports will become more expensive, and there is no local equivalent. We buy imported components in foreign currency, and the currency rises in price. So, excuse me, what is the point of weakening the ruble ???
There is one plus, gold and foreign exchange reserves, in terms of rubles will be more !!! But almost all the savings in the United States. After all, we are restoring THEIR economy, not our own!
"Rain" "soaked" himself
Once again, the “Rain” channel was particularly “distinguished”, having already actually crossed all the borders. “Raincoats” suggested to viewers in their program “Amateurs” to answer the question: “Was it necessary to surrender Leningrad in order to save hundreds of thousands of lives?” There were two possible answers: “yes” and “no”. The liberal audience did not let down the liberal TV channel and answered yes by majority of votes (54%).
January 27 St. Petersburg (Leningrad) and the whole country celebrated the 70 anniversary of the complete lifting of the Leningrad blockade. Light and at the same time mournful date. It would seem a wonderful occasion for social consolidation, for giving honors to those who laid down their heads in the name of the living generations, for realizing the role of fortitude and perseverance. However, in practice, it turned out that even the unprecedented feat of the Leningrad people today, some gentlemen decided to subject them to a special interpretation. Like, is it a feat? .. But was it needed? .. Such, you know, doubters, sorry, scoundrels, it’s difficult to name the authors of this “survey” in a different way. It is obvious that the “people” who prepared such a survey for the audience put the “necessary” answer to the question itself. A peculiar version of neuro-linguistic programming or ordinary nonsense in the style: “Do I have to love my wife if my wife does not like Dozhd TV channel? .. And the answers:“ yes, do not ”and“ no, do not need ”...
With such “historical-philosophical” approaches to taking into account “public opinion”, “Rain” and other similar media can “think out” before, but was it really necessary to resist Hitler Germany from 22 June 1941? Remember, the classic thesis of the scoundrels of past “circulations”: “If they had surrendered in 41, they would have drunk Bavarian beer now!” It turns out that some gentlemen didn’t bury themselves in this vileness, but on the contrary — they built it on a pedestal ...
In "Rain", apparently, they decided that permissiveness would continue to be permissiveness, but the channel was fairly clicked on the nose. Moreover, it wasn’t even legislative, although the case before the prosecutor’s check came up (admittedly, prosecutors didn’t find any extremism ...), but in a businesslike manner. Many cable operators simply pulled Rain out of the set of broadcast channels. They took and disconnected. So did Akado, Beeline, NTV-plus, Dom.ru. Because of this, the audience of the channel has greatly thinned out. And the "rainy" squad noticed the loss of fighters ...
In general, the “optimistic channel” showed how optimistic it is, and he was shown where the real place of such media might be ...

I would like to receive such a statement from the relevant authorities regarding the TV channel and others like it. And the one who directly blurted out this nonsense, should be removed literally.

At the Geneva talks, the NKRS delegation refused to discuss the draft document condemning terror, according to "Vesti" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
The government delegation of Syria has put forward a draft statement that calls for the fight against terrorist groups and their expulsion from Syria. The document emphasizes that countering terrorism is the duty of every Syrian citizen.
Not surprisingly, let us add from myself that NKORS refused to support the draft statement. Where have you seen the bandits signed papers, according to which they will have to fight against themselves?
Meanwhile, Washington announced the emergence of new threats from Syria. According to the Director of National Intelligence of the United States, Damascus may produce biological weapons. Details - from the correspondent "RT" Marina Portnoy.
Speaking in the Senate, James Clapper said that Syria was unable to develop an effective biological weapons delivery system, but the government has facilities that can be used to launch it. Some elements of the Syrian biological weapons program could go beyond the research phase. Syria may be capable of producing a limited number of components of such weapons.
Clapper also warns that Al-Qaeda-related al-Nusra Front plans to attack the United States.
He said that extremist groups in Syria run training camps where people are being prepared to return to their homeland and commit terrorist acts there. Approximately 26 of thousands of militants fighting against the Assad government in Syria are extremists. According to his calculations, 7 thousands of them come from 50 from different countries, including European ones.
Well, support even more any "opposition", gentlemen intelligence, add from yourself. Al Qaeda is what you gave birth to in the eighties. Now you support those who want to overthrow Assad. And what will happen in the event of overthrow? That's right: after Damascus, the militants promised to take Washington. However, the American special services, apparently, love when someone attacks America. In such cases, the White House and congressmen are ready for any appropriations, and the Fed's printing press is working non-stop. A couple of explosions in American cities, and abbreviated or curtailed generals and colonels are back in business, and the Al-Qaida trademark is again ahead of Coca-Cola.
But anti-war activist Brian Becker believes that Washington’s statements about the development of biological weapons by Syria are just a new excuse to overthrow the Assad government. This channel tells "RT".
According to the expert, the United States is looking for an excuse to put pressure on the government of Bashar Assad. “The word“ pressure ”is a euphemism. In fact, the United States, without a doubt, is committing an international crime by financing armed struggle, as well as supplying equipment and weapons to Syria, ”comrade Becker said.
The White House’s actions are clearly fueling a civil war: “We saw the same thing in Iraq and Libya, and now this is happening in Syria. The United States pursues a policy of fomenting armed struggle and civil war, and for this they need to provide some kind of justification. ”
The statement about the development of biological weapons in Syria is "a way to counter the" Geneva-2 "and continue to blacken the Assad government." After all, its overthrow is the true goal of the White House, and not a peaceful resolution of the internal conflict, the expert said.
Who would doubt, add on my own. American top does not change. Hillary Clinton said: "Assad must go, Assad must go." Over time, both the US special services and the State Department admitted that terrible bearded Islamists are fighting against Assad, ready to attack Washington. But this understanding did not change anything. Almost the same as Hillary Clinton, US Assistant Secretary of State John Kerry insists on Assad’s departure. America will be destroyed by impenetrable stupidity and striking double-thinking of its leaders. The latter are great reminiscent of other characters Orwell. However, in the State Department, Comrade Orwell’s books are not honored.

Washington sentenced
The Community of Latin American and Caribbean States (CELAC) was created in December 2011 in Caracas at a summit of heads of state and government of the region. In those days, Comrade Chavez declared that by creating a new union, the countries of the region were realizing the dream of Simon Bolivar. According to Comandante, the Community is “the foundation stone for the freedom of Latin America and the Caribbean.” The words of Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega are also known. He stated that the existence of CELAC is "a death sentence for American intervention in Latin American affairs." CELAC united thirty three countries of the region. Of course, the United States and Canada are not among them.
28-29 On January 2014, the CELAC Summit was held in Havana. Cuban leader Raul Castro called on the Community to cooperate in the fight against new threats. Among the latter, he said, is the US global network espionage - up to the invasion of information networks of other countries.
“The only way to prevent and counter these new threats is joint cooperation between the states, as well as to prevent the transformation of cyberspace into a theater of military operations,” comrade Castro said.
Leaders of states participating in CELAC have declared America to be a zone of peace. And the “world” is not empty declarations. It was determined that the contradictions between the member countries of the Community will be resolved through negotiations. There will be no use of force in the region.
Thirty-three states have called on the United States to lift the economic blockade of Cuba.
A separate topic at the summit was cooperation with China growing by leaps and bounds. Today it is difficult to name the state among XELUM participants of CELAC, where the Celestial Empire would not have achieved success in economic expansion. It should be noted that the leaders of the American countries agree that the “empire” of the USA is faltering, while China, on the contrary, is growing stronger. Moreover, we note that China is “leftist”, socialist.
The CELAC Summit was another reminder of a whole series of political failures of the United States. No, CELAC is not a “death sentence” for Washington. Washington handed down a death sentence for himself, without help. The mediocre, stupid, aggressive and irresponsible policy of the United States has finally begun to pay off.

See Moscow and die
The fact that they want to remove Snowden - and not quietly, but with an advertising campaign - is no longer news. However, in recent days, clouds have begun to thicken around the name of the public informer. Apparently, with the approach of the Olympics - and Western intelligence agencies planned to eliminate Edward in her early days, when the FSB moves to Sochi and focuses entirely on the safety of athletes and the public, which will be helped by American “colleagues” - hairy hands have much in it’s Washington’s hawks , and the fingers trembled on the triggers.
The audience that eats McDonald's fat products in front of Ti-Wee screens, washing it down with effervescent and sweet Coca-Cola, recently received the final image of Snowden, the enemy who sold the secrets of his homeland to the damned Soviets, headed by the main communist and KGB spy of all times and peoples - V. Putin.
Michael Rogers (Republican, Chairman of the Intelligence Committee of the House of Representatives) and Dianne Feinstein (Democrat, who heads the Senate Intelligence Committee) came to the powerful CBS channel of America. On the activities of Snowden, they told America in the program "Face the nation." Snowden, who lives in Russia, in the end turned out to be like an “ass to the nation.”
Having shot the face, the tireless Rodgers went on the transfer to another TV channel - NBC. There he also spoke about Snowden and about the harm he did to the great American state.
Thus, through the powerful American media, both the Republican Party and the Democratic Party, as well as the parliament, launched a manipulative attack.
Both Feinstein and Rogers very strongly suggested that the fugitive Snowden could receive help from foreign intelligence services: without it, he simply could not have access to some data. He was certainly helped, although there is no direct evidence of this. If they had not helped, said Mr. Rogers, then how could he have so thoroughly prepared an escape? And how to steal files? Everything is very smooth.
Rogers forgot to tell more about epilepsy, from which Snowden, having grabbed millions of files, flew to Hong Kong for treatment. And the boss let him go easily. This is absolutely amazing. Apparently, all epileptics periodically fly to Hong Kong. So who is the chief of Snowden?
Speaking in a television program, Rogers said that "there are a number of interesting questions, the answers to which suggest that Russia played a role in the Snowden case." And once Rogers from the intelligence committee, he, using authority, clarified: the main part of the information stolen by the fugitive did not concern the NSA surveillance program, but the US military capabilities.
Democratic Feinstein said nothing about Russia, but she was asked about Russia. Responding to a question about whether she admits that Snowden received Moscow assistance, she said: “He could well receive it. At this stage, we do not know. "
And now the United States will have to spend, "Rogers said," billions and billions "of dollars, in order to" put in order "what Snowden had destroyed with his enemy activities. (In one fell swoop, two birds with one stone killed: and the external enemy is designated - Russia, and it is time to inflate the budgets, because fighting the enemy is worth the money. Snowden played, so it goes into the hands of the special services and their lobby from Congress!)
Here, as if in the sequel of the series, another Mr, a chairman of the National Security Committee of the House of Representatives Michael McCall, appeared on a nearby TV channel, ABC. In an interview, he said that the disclosure of secret information by E. Snowden could have been inspired by the special services of other countries. And again a proper name was sounded - Russia. “I can’t definitely say that Russia helped him. But I am convinced that a foreign power was behind his actions, ”said McCall.
Like this. Three of the most popular TV channels hammered into the American trustful heads a new “mulk” about the Russian trail.
Here, even the brain, soaked through with black Coca-Cola and white fat from donuts, will begin to think in the right direction. Something like this: “So, these damned Russians started something again. Not only we nakostyly them in World War II and in Vietnam! They're losing their temper again! ”
The newest series, if you think about it, is a direct continuation of the malicious statement of the former CIA leader James Woolsey, the Mr. who said in December that Snowden should be “hanged”.
However, before Woolsey, the above mentioned Rogers spoke with aggressive statements. He offered to make a special list of destruction, where to include and Snowden. Who this figure is going to destroy along with Snowden, not reported. But we, of course, guess ...

And it is here that the plan I proposed earlier, the plan of S. H. - Sherlock Holmes, comes into play. When the agents rush into the apartment where the fugitive is, they see him sitting in a chair. With shouts: “Aha !! Got a traitor !!!!! ”they pounce on him and start to knit. After ten minutes of tying up, they discover that this is ... what the hell, mannequin !!!! Mannequin who sat in a chair !!!! Mute scene ...
And here, lazily playing with handcuffs, our boys enter. Well, then everything is clear. TV cameras, false mustaches, wigs of mattress agents. Their mournful cries: “We were set up !!! We generally went to the library. ” ))))))))

The United States is stratified, and it starts to slowly come to the common people that someone has settled down behind them and has them, gently whispering slogans in their ear. For the NSA, the fight against terrorism is like “Proletarians of all countries, unite”, and the main goal was to serve strategic economic interests - read corporations.

About stupid and talkers
The book of memoirs of seventy-year-old Robert Gates "Debt" was published. In his memoirs, the former US Secretary of Defense is not shy about expressions and gives vent to feelings. Congress, for example, he criticizes for incompetence and propaganda, senators calls "stupid" and "hypocritical" egoists. Members of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives, in his opinion, are nasty and stupid rude. Vice-President Joe Biden, the ex-minister fiercely hates and considers him to be a “talker”, who alone makes mistakes. The dislike of Gates to the people who run the United States runs like a thread through the entire book.
Greg Jaffe published a review of this book in the Opinions section of the newspaper. Washington Post. And in the blog The Wall Street Journal Dion Nissenbaum announced the top-10 "revelations" of the former Minister of Defense.
R. Gates left Washington in 2011, having a reputation as a calm and sensible member of the foreign policy establishment. He served under eight presidents; they were equally admired by both Republicans and Democrats. However, now that the next time Gates visits the capital, it can be received coolly. “Debt” is the second book of memoirs of the ex-minister, reminds the journalist, and this time he cuts the truth of the womb.
The congress got from the ex-minister for the deadlock of situations and propaganda. Senators Gates listened as “with growing indignation.” These people got the unflattering epithets "hypocritical" and "stupid." Members of the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives, according to Gates, are “rude, disgusting and stupid.” He calls the majority of legislators on the pages of the book uncivilized, incompetent in carrying out basic constitutional duties (for example, in appropriations), prone to manipulation, uneducated, hypocritical, selfish, vulnerable, seeking only reelection and placing their interests above the interests of the country.
Those who hate Vice President Joe Biden will be delighted with the book's description of the latter: in Gates' view, the Vice President is a loud talker obsessed with politics. But what is this politician? Gates writes: "I think he was wrong on almost all issues of foreign policy and national security over the past four decades." And what about President Obama? It turns out that it was the vice-president who poisoned Obama’s relationship with his generals: “I think Biden subjected Obama to Chinese water torture every day, saying,“ The military cannot be trusted. ”
Gates expected more from Obama: “I myself, our commanders and our troops expected more commitment and more passion ...” He compares Obama with Bush - and not in favor of the first. Bush, according to Gates, "did not think long about Iraq," including about the invasion.
Gates claims to have witnessed a conversation between Obama and Clinton, in which the president admitted that his negative attitude towards the military escalation in Iraq, expressed in 2007, was a political calculation. Mr. Gates called this exchange “wonderful.”
So, let us add to this, before the Americans and the whole world the impartial picture of what constitutes America’s ruling class, that is, the power of both legislative and executive power, once again opened. In principle, nothing new and surprising. Stupid, hypocritical, rude and dark egoists, guided by "calculation" and thinking only about how to be "elected" for the next term, are the psychological portrait of the political elite of the United States.

Not only is he lying, he doesn’t know what he will do next, caving in under the so-called political moment (election results in his own country, in allied countries or opponents), which means he cannot create any strategy or less a lengthy plan, let alone make a strategy or plan a reality.
That's how I understand this book.
Give us another president.
Michael Collins Piper published in the publication "American Free Press" article under the promising title: "Putin-style politics can save the United States." The author is confident that the current United States is moving along the path taken by Russia. American “money bags” in times of crisis are ready to ravage the entire economy of the country. What the conservatives call "free enterprise" is actually similar to what happened in Russia after the collapse of the USSR, when the "vultures" took control of the economy and gained political power.
It is hardly necessary to remind readers of what happened at the beginning of the 1990-s, when gentlemen of liberal reformers ruled Russia. But nevertheless, we shall precede the retelling of the material by an American journalist with a small paragraph of his own.
The doctrine of "monetarism" (the word was purposely put in quotes, because with the help of this well-known economic scenario, awarded by the Nobel Committee, many economies were destroyed), vouchers, Chubais, Gaidar, crazy inflation, American cigarettes, coveted coca-cola and beer in fantastic prices, “exchanges”, “check investment funds”, “MMM” and “Hopper-Invest”, rampant banditry and racketeers' prosperity, shooting in the streets, massive impoverishment of residents of cities and villages who believed in western paradise, the rapid spread of alcohol ism and addiction ... In the end - a sharp decline in population, the extinction of the Russian people a million a year. All this happened against the backdrop of appeals by the authorities on TV for the “revival” of Russia and the construction of “democracy”. Apparently, in the framework of this very "democracy" fit, according to Yeltsin's concepts, and October 93. As a result, the Chubais privatization period (its first stage) was considered by the Duma “unsatisfactory” (1994). The socialist national wealth under the liberal democratic silence and the traditional propaganda of a bright future (already capitalist) in Russia was simply stolen by a handful of future oligarchs.
Something similar, albeit with differences, was discovered by Mr. Piper in his native America. Under the propaganda of the traditional values of “entrepreneurship,” future oligarchs rush to the very heights of wealth and power.
In fact, the era of so-called “dollar-cracking” (the term used by media critics by John Nichols and Robert W. McChesney) has arrived in the United States. Dallococracy - this is what destroys America. Mass media are also serving as dollar rats.
A handful of billionaires, liberals and conservatives, the author claims, starting with a predator-speculator named Schwartz György (aka George Soros, George Soros) and ending with magnate Sheldon G. Adelson and his Israeli wife Miriam are the sources of financing American politicians. And this, the journalist points out, almost no one disputes. An avalanche of unaccountable money through the so-called super PAC (political action committees, KPD; see more here, in English. lang.) covers our choices and allows media companies to rake in billions of profits on advertising revenues from the mentioned efficiency.
And this is all exactly what happened in Russia. So yes, the author writes, America chose the path of Russia.
However, today the paradigm is changing in Russia.
Vladimir Putin, an American journalist believes, decided to face off with those greedy oligarchs who once brought him to power. While the kleptocratic princes still control 70% of the Russian media, Putin is carefully thinking through a strategy in a multi-level geopolitical chess game, leading the fight not only against the opposition in his own country, but also with its allies among schemers from New York, London and Tel Aviv.
Who will win the game? It remains to be seen.
However, the American media under Zionist control, the author writes, convince the public that Putin is a “secret socialist,” and he is going to conquer the world.
The truth is, Michael Collins Piper is sure, that if we Americans want to return to good old Americanism, we will have to follow the path of Russia and find a leader like Putin.

Cultural program on the channel "Maidan"
West distributes "maydanschikam" not only buns and cookies. Moral support matters too. As it turned out, many eminent figures of so-called Western culture expressed their solidarity with Kiev and other Ukrainian builders of democracy. For example, Hollywood actor George Clooney identified with “Batkivschyna,” and Schwarzenegger recorded a video for euromaidanists and uploaded it to YouTube. 11 seconds video from Iron Arnie - this is worth a lot. Euromaidan was previously supported by domestic production artists: hairdresser Zverev, sex showman Dzhigurda, artist Nikas Safronov, leader of the DDT group Shevchuk and others. The star chorus was supplemented with a foreign female voice: the former porn star Sasha Gray joined the company of fighters for Ukrainian democracy.
Depeche Mode guitarist Martin Gore joined Schwarzenegger, Clooney and S. Gray. This one frankly admitted that he was not following the news. And still spoke in support of Euromaidan. No, I did not speak in Kiev, but in Amsterdam. Gore сказал:
What Ukraine deserves, we add, the American president has popularly explained.
Speaking with an annual message to Congress, B.H. Obama stated that he supported the Ukrainian people in their desire to protest peacefully. Riots and rallies on the streets of Ukrainian cities, in the opinion of the American president, speak about the development of democratic freedoms. Mr. Obama compared Ukraine with Myanmar and Tunisia: there the United States supports the construction of democracy.
This is where the sample of the Ukrainian future!
By the way, Tunisia has really achieved a lot in a democratic way - even constitutionally equalized a man and a woman last week. Apparently, Kiev is already halfway to this ...

An article by James Cardin, a former adviser to the presidential commission on Russian-US bilateral relations with the Department of State in 2011-2012, appeared in The American Conservative (USA) (the translation source is "InoSMI"). The article is entitled: “Is Ukraine the problem that the United States should solve?”
The author notes that last week a meeting was held in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the consequences of the crisis in Ukraine. There were two high-ranking State Department officials, as well as Zbigniew Brzezinski. According to Cardin, the meeting "has become a rather dismal sight."
In introductory speeches by the Deputy US Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland and the Deputy Head of the Bureau of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor of the US State Department Tom Melia sounded familiar statements about “supporting the aspirations of Ukrainian citizens” and assurances that “the US is in solidarity with the Ukrainian people in his fight for fundamental human rights. " Melia said that Ukraine is a “valuable” and “important” US partner. And then it was the most interesting.
The author of the material singled out several fantastic theses in the speeches of Nuland and Melia:
1. In the conflict that unfolds on the Maidan, the national interests of the United States are at stake.
2. Without financial and moral support from the United States, the Ukrainian opposition will probably not succeed.
3. Russia acted treacherously, offering the Ukrainian government a more attractive package of financial assistance than the one made by the European Union and the IMF.
4. Protesters on the Maidan act on behalf of the entire Ukrainian people, and most of these people themselves want Ukraine to join the European Union.
5. The outcome of the current crisis will affect the development of Russia. If Ukraine chooses a European future, then Russia will follow its example.
Nevertheless, the chairman of the committee Robert Menendez, the member of the committee Senator Bob Corker, senators Chris Murphy and John McCain (these recently visited Kiev) fully agreed with these theses.
None of the speakers also mentioned that in Ukraine there is a deep gap between Westernizers in large cities such as Kiev and Lviv, and Russophiles in the south and east of the country, not to mention the fact that Russia, Ukraine and Belarus have common roots and history originating in Kievan Rus of the 9th century. ”
Well, then Mr. Brzezinski took the floor. He confirmed the theses of previous speakers, including the idea that Ukraine’s integration with the West would force Russia to follow its example. If the Ukrainian opposition wants to succeed, it should follow the example of the Polish Solidarity movement, Brzezinski suggests.
Undoubtedly, let us add on our own, the objective approach of the author of the article will not meet either sympathy or even elementary understanding among congressmen, who have never heard of Kievan Rus. And behind the idea of Russia joining the EU, these politicians are probably seeing the Kremlin’s application for NATO membership. Well, and then - the joint struggle of Moscow and Washington against the Chinese enslavers of the planet. Until full victory, of course. The Russians, by their bad historical habit, will go in the first rows, and Washington, well ... will help with land-lease and the second front.

At the gates of Europe
In Forbes, an article by Melik Kaylen was published under the heading “Why Nobody Says the Obvious Things? Putin destabilized Ukraine "(source of translation - "InoSMI").
“What is the main cause of the tragic strife in Ukraine, the root cause of so many ills in the region and beyond?”, A columnist for the “Forbes” blog asks.
“The latest round of deadly instability began because President Yanukovych pushed through laws to criminalize demonstrations in order to prevent a repetition of the first round. And who gave impetus to the first round of demonstrations? The greatest “prince of disorder” (“Lord of Misrule”) of our era is Vladimir Putin, ”the journalist said.
“For years, 15, Putin has shamelessly scolding America for destabilizing interventions in various countries of the world. But look at his track record: Chechnya, Georgia, Moldova, Ukraine, Syria. Plus, all Russian journalists and whistleblowers who paid with their lives. For some reason, no one makes Putin accountable for the cumulative horrors of his rule, ”reads further.
Is it clear to everyone what “ruthless, blood-soaked hegemon from Machiavelli” is allowed to hover over the future of Europe and the Middle East? “Why do we allow this?” - the author is indignant.
However, the answer to the question is.
"We can not do otherwise, if we do not intend to fight him. And we ate wars of fullness. The wars brought us to this helpless state. ”
Amazing, add on my own. So much self-criticism - and again poking your nose in someone else's business? Smacks of schizophrenia.
Next to the journalist returns malomalskaya logic.
Putin is an ally in the fight against al-Qaeda. This is another reason why America allows the "hegemon" to do things. But clarification immediately follows. It turns out that radical Islamism is a Russian brainchild. More precisely-the brainchild of Putin.
“It doesn’t matter that he and his delegates often raised extreme Islamists to play this card,” says the author.
The war in Syria is similar to the Chechen war.
So British intelligence says that B. Assad has released al-Qaida members from prison. What for? So that they ... join the rebels.
“How strange it looks like the second Chechen war,” Kaylen comments on these fabrications.
Further, the author is already approaching, one might say, the theme of the Third World War. It will begin, of course, Russian.
The author advises to revive his “sense of identity” to the West, condemns multiculturalism and declares: “The Russians know who they are. They are again at the gates of Europe. From this we must begin. "

He dreams of tundra and Putin
“When we fly over the Siberian tundra in a luxurious private jet, Vladimir Putin tells me:“ I don't often talk to journalists, but I want to tell you about my recent conversation with Bashar, ”writes The Guardian correspondent. translation - "Inopressa").
Walker is happy with the sensation, but ... he wakes up immediately.
This journalist often sees Putin in a dream. The article notes that in these dreams the President of Russia is always "fully dressed and expresses his opinion on matters of national importance."
It turns out that the correspondent’s dream came from his strong desire to meet with Putin. After all, “it’s damn hard to get access to Putin.”
For six years as a foreign correspondent in Moscow, Walker had no close meetings with Putin. He only participated in press conferences at which more than a thousand journalists are present.
Not one Mr. Walker dreams of Putin.
According to the journalist, Putin dreams of almost all foreign correspondents in Russia. So Veronica Dorman said: “I once dreamed that Putin had a party to teach us how to drink vodka.” A journalist and writer Marina Akhmedova told Walker that Putin once dreamed of her in a tail coat flying a goose. Then she saw Putin on a hang-glider on TV, for which Siberian Cranes flew.
Well, let us add on our own, while the mass western philistine dreams of Putin ruling the United States instead of Obama, Britain instead of Cameron, and France instead of Hollande, Western journalists have been waiting for years for the Kremlin master to say a word to them. Vladimir Vladimirovich has a propaganda gingerbread in his pocket, which he doesn’t suspect ...
