More Warmongering: US Secretary Of Defense, NATO Both Say Threat Of Russian Incursion A "Reality"
On the heels of yesterday's comments from Poland's Sikorski, NATO has confirmed there's a risk of Russia sending troops into Ukraine under the 'pretext' of a humanitarian or peacekeeping mission. "We're not going to guess what’s on Russia’s mind, but we can see what Russia is doing on the ground - and that is of great concern," a NATO spokesperson warned, adding, "this is a dangerous situation." Then US SecDef Hagel added, "the threat of Russian incursion in Ukraine is a reality." Russia's response to this warmongering (as Ukraine appears desperate to instigate something before the money runs out) is to blast the disinformation, "reports of troop buildups near the Ukraine border are groundless." It appears we are going to need more YouTube clips...
US Secretary of Defense Hagel is chiming in...
- *HAGEL SAYS THREAT OF RUSSIAN INCURSION IN UKRAINE IS `REALITY'
- *HAGEL SEES 'POSSIBILITY' OF RUSSIAN TROOPS ENTERING UKRAINE
And as Bloomberg reports, NATO sees incursion risk on apparent troop buildup...
NATO said there’s a risk of Russia sending troops into Ukraine under the “pretext” of a humanitarian or peacekeeping mission after President Vladimir Putin massed soldiers on his country’s western border.
“We’re not going to guess what’s on Russia’s mind, but we can see what Russia is doing on the ground -- and that is of great concern,” Oana Lungescu, a spokeswoman for the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, said by e-mail today. “The latest Russian military buildup further escalates the situation and undermines efforts aimed at finding a diplomatic solution to the crisis. This is a dangerous situation.”
...
“Putin will likely aim at a fig leaf policy with an incursion under the guise of a peacekeeping operation,” Amanda Paul, an analyst at the European Policy Centre in Brussels, wrote in an e-mail. “As other conflicts in the former Soviet Union have shown, once there is a Russian military presence it usually never leaves.”
On the heels of yesterday's comments from Poland...
Poland has “reason to believe” that the risk of an incursion is “greater than a few days ago,” Prime Minister Donald Tusk told reporters in Warsaw today. His foreign minister, Radoslaw Sikorski, yesterday said that any incursion would be under the guise of a peacekeeping operation.
The Germans are not buying NATO's perspective...
“I cannot believe Russia would attack Ukraine, which would worsen the situation further and deepen the conflict with the West,” Meister said by phone today. “I don’t see signs for invasion. In fact, Russia has tried to bring in some distance from the separatists.”
Russia's response:
- *RUSSIA SAYS REPORTS OF ARMY BUILDUP NEAR BORDER GROUNDLESS: IFX
- *INTERFAX CITES RUSSIAN DEFENSE MINISTRY ON MILITARY BUILDUP
- *PENTAGON, NATO STATEMENTS ON BORDER BUILDUP DISINFORMATION: IFX
* * *
We are sure evidence will be forthcoming...

I'm really getting tired of reading about abstractions such as NATO "saying" anything. Last I checked, only humans had the capacity for speech, not some fucking collective.
gotta remember our prez is all about the collective. and by the time this dick head is done we need some collective salvation. part of me wishes Putan show Obama what a real pair of balls look like but I forget Micheal did that last night! Fore
Quoting "NATO said there’s a risk of Russia sending troops into Ukraine under the “pretext” of a humanitarian or peacekeeping mission"
NATO/USSA always use false humanitarian pretexts to invade other countries, so that they cannot imagine a scenario where Russia intervenes to save lives, instead of killing innocents and stealing their resources for profits.
Course with the Ukes burning people alive in buildings like they did in Odessa, I would say Russia's concerns are legit.
Putin/Paul 2016
The USSA is playing chicken with a high speed freight train. The Russians are the high speed freight train.
Either the USSA will lose its face or we will have the hot phase of the WWIII.
Please note: The WWIII is already on, but it is mainly informational, financial and economical war.
FUCK YOU VICTORIA NUDELMAN!
Propaganda 101 --
Accuse the other party of whatever you're doing, and blame them for it.
If I were Putin, I'd start the PR campaign on Western Media and at the UN, that...
1. The UN must send in UN Blue Helmets, to avert humanitarian catastrophe and genocide (Ukrainians killing Russians in Ukraine), while also destroying Infrastructure and Mfg.
2. While maintaining and escalating (1), plan for inevitable "Russian Blue Helmets" (literally!) to step in, until the UN gets its act together and does what it is supposed to do.
3. #2 above gives Russia the Diplomatic Cover + PR Cover it will need, to prevent the US from escalating the conflict into a NATO/Russia conflict. The US would dearly love to do this, to prevent (a) Europe from pivoting toward Asia, and (b) Delay/front-run the USD's demise as the GRC (given the escalating de-Dollarization).
If the US were to succeed in its escalation, it is not the US that would lose. Nor would Israel or KSA. Rather, it is Europe, Russia and Ukraine who would lose, and the Eurasian alliance would stall.
NATO/USA/UK are trying to play "Dominance and Submission", but Putin is playing "Tease and Denial"! Sorry, no "clouds and rain" just yet! :>D
You mean BTMH17WWMH3704WWIII!
There will be no Russian invasion of Ukraine. The Federation already has the most land and does not need anymore. Crimea was an exception because of the warm-water port. Right now, Russia is trying to build a pipe-line completely around Ukraine. I think they have no interest being entangled with Ukraine at all.
See below from the Enemy of the State himself:
“When the Bolsheviks took power in Russia in 1917, they had given
little thought to a future Soviet foreign policy, for they were convinced
that Communist revolution would soon follow in the advanced industrial
countries of Western Europe. When such hopes were dashed after the end
of World War I, Lenin and his fellow Bolsheviks adopted the theory of
“peaceful coexistence” as the basic foreign policy for a Communist State.
The idea was this: as the first successful Communist movement, Soviet
Russia would serve as a beacon for and supporter of other Communist
parties throughout the world. But the Soviet State qua State would devote
itself to peaceful relations with all other countries, and would not attempt
to export communism through inter-State warfare. The idea here was not
just to follow Marxist-Leninist theory, but was the highly practical course
of holding the survival of the existing Communist State as the foremost
goal of foreign policy: that is, never to endanger the Soviet State by
courting inter-State warfare. Other countries would be expected to become
Communist by their own internal processes.”
Murray Rothbard, For A New Liberty, p. 290
Hey Chuck, go choke on a bag of dicks you asshat.
None of the US's GD business what Russia does in Russia.
You MIC boys have worn out your welcome. Only knuckledragging mouthbreathers fall for that shit anymore. Don't believe me?
Why not insitute a draft for the next war then? Because you fucks know that those draft card burning parties will be seen from space.
Maybe get that neocon Nudelman to send some more USAID over?
Or maybe Psaki on all fours for the Uke troops might help your war effort?

Spox does have quite the set of knockers on her.. Paint her on the front of a Soviet era APC and Ukrainian troop morale will be at all time highs. They'll be committing war crimes by the tens of thousands.
Pods,
There is a lot of truth in what you speak. As a conservative, I find it interesting that the polling data pumped by Chuck Toad this morning highlighted the differences in the two US parties.
That asshat should have been highlighting the one issue that red and blue agree on.
"Focus more on our own internal problems." That butt wipe missed a great opportunity, but I guess friction sells.
Can't you taste how bad they need a war? They don't want it, they need it. It's essential to the system's survival.
When it finally happens I expect anal exams, internet licenses, and total command control economy all the name of freedom.
It might be nice if the Pentagon and US Military stood up for the American people and defended The Constitution from the criminals in DC and their oligarch buddies.
"Cash for Clunkers cost taxpayers big money" - fixed it for you asshat.
Seems the Russians have their own Cash for Clunkers scheme. Just caught the ad on R-FUKU about Honest Ivan's on the border. Seems they got a great trade-in offer on trashed fighting vehicles. Upgrade to the latest model, fully-loaded ; 12mths unlimited gas and ammo thrown in. Includes courtesy-tank while your waiting for yours to be won-back, repaired or replaced. No downpayment, 0% finance and the rest of your life to pay it off. And, for anyone who thinks life may be too short to pay off a tank-loan, they can even tag-on life cover.
MH17 a false flag by Ukraine
You mean USNATO. There is no Ukraine.
...interesting, appears no daily press briefing today by either WH or State Dept.
Yet..
You must mean ZATO or Zio-NATO.
Don't murder civilians and Russia has no excuse to invade does it Obummer.
Oh please, like facts matter.
TPTB want war, what else is there to say. Until they become the powers that were , war
is going to be what we get.
they need a distraction big time, i hope russia does not help them get one.
Given those poll results on Putin's ratings in the US, it appears the govt's abilities to shape public opinion is well and truly alive. War is on the near horizon.
With the amount of Demonisation that is happening in the US Media of Putin and Russia, I fear that you are right. That is the normal first steps before a conflict to drum up public support.
Wait until the body bags arrive from the new Eastern Front NATO wants to create and see what happens to public support. Also, if you want to fight a war with Russia, you will need plenty of troops, as in conscription plenty of troops. That will definitely get public support going. Once something real happens, and the US population realizes this is not Iraq, public support will crumble.
" It appears we are going to need more YouTube clips... "
Which I won't spend time watching..... even at twice the normal speed.

Fixed it for you, Tylers.
I peferred it when they called it the War Dept., much more honest.
They also much better at winning wars, as opposed to defending their alotted share of government takings.
Difficult to think of a fighting war that the US has won and left in peace since WW2.

Seckatary o' War or the War Minister.
Russia knows the US wants war so badly it has already spent $5 billion funding the Nazi coup in the Ukraine and has falsified almost everything it passes onto its MSM about this issue. Russia also knows that the reason for this is a desperate attempt to save the role of the USD as world reserve currency. For these reasons it is highly inlikely that Russia will do anything to stop the US funded murder of innocent Ukrainians.
What else can be said. Spot on,
This may not be very helpful since it cannot be verified, but as long as the seperatists are "winning" or at least holding their own (which is what Im seeing online), there is really no reason for Russia to overtly cross the border in anything that looks like an invasion. Following this train of thought, the US must, *must* goad Russia into doing something that gives them an excuse to do what they now accuse Russia of. If Russia will not do so, then we consider simply saying they did so we can respond in kind.
The only thing stopping them is German opinion, as always. It was interesting to see the media in the west crowing about the "huge damage" being done to the German/Russia relationship over the airline incident. This is a common thread Ive noticed in blogs vs MSM over the last years. The MSM refuses to acknowlege something important only to give it the "well, duh..." treatment much later.
I think you're right about Germany being the linchpin here. Germany knows that being joint and several with the rest of the EU, which is greatly dependent on Russian gas, means that having the gas turned off would be disaster for its own economy.
And Putin's just calling NATO's facade of strength and pontification...

“Putin will likely aim at a fig leaf policy with an incursion under the guise of a peacekeeping operation,”
Is that somehow worse than running a subversion operation under the guise of humanitarian aid? You know, like the CIA does all over the world.
NO fig leaf can cover up what the US is up to.
Fig ure it out!
Yes, with the help of USAID.
Giving "aid" is coming to mean something just a little, well, sinister.
Edit: Giving aid to the enemy is a good thing, right? The new definitions in double speak, I think I'm getting the hang of it now.
Chup, that Cuban USAID thing got me thinking about the "chemistry teacher" who was shot while jogging in Libya.
Lo and behold, the stinky smell of the USAID is rising from Libya. I could not find any direct links to that school though.

USAID & NGO's are just fronts for the Criminal CIA destabilization campaigns, Fasle Narrative, PsyOp, Propaganda Operations.
The Pig Zionist Congresswoman Ileana Ros- Lehtinen was actually on local news supporting the PsyOp's USAID operations in Cuba.
She should be the first to hang IMHO.
Here is the Russian announcement in the UN on aid. Getting UN agreement seems to be the way to go.
Russia suggests sending an international humanitarian mission to eastern Ukraine that will be protected and sponsored by the Red Cross and escorted by the organization’s representatives, Russia’s UN envoy Vitaly Churkin said Tuesday at an emergency UN Security Council session on the humanitarian situation in violence-torn Ukraine.
“We suggest sending convoys of Russian humanitarian aid – under the auspices and accompanied by the ICRC [International Committee of the Red Cross] – to Donetsk and Luhansk, as well as to other cities of Ukraine where the internally displaced people from eastern regions [of Ukraine] are located,” Churkin said.

Hey, Amanda, have you visited Germany or looked out your door lately?
There is no liars' bench in Brussels.
i'm pretty sure she made a slip of the tongue and actuially was talking about the US
I'm no math major but I figure US in Afghanistan for 13 years now and Russia, what, maybe 10?
How many in Korea?
She usually never talks about the US presence.
How does Amanda think the current situation unfolded?
Russia left Ukraine.
Based on the result of the preceding poll, it's safe to say that the western powers have successfully made a boogie man out of Putin.
Waiting for the shirtless Evil Putin action figure before I believe it.

See, right there, disinformation... it's real.

It was , the 24 has longer range, the 17 was just prettier
You're forgetting refueling, that's what Apollo was really all about.
Now it makes sense. No place for a tail gunner on the space shuttle. Action was to hot.That why the used the 17 instead for the moon trip

If these sociopaths insist on fucking with Russia, words can't describe how badly we're gonna get our ass kicked. It's hard to believe they are this fucking blind and stupid.
I suspect they are planning for a "hot" war with Russia and think they can survive it in their bunkers. Then after most of the radiation has blown offshore, they can emerge and install themselves as kings over the survivors.

Because when the men and women in uniform follow "those kind of orders" they themselves will either be dead or wish they were when they realize that their won't be anything left to return home to.
Like I've always said. The ones who survive in well stocked bunkers with the best of everything better grow eyes in the back of there heads when it comes to the people who will be taking their orders!
Whole lotta "Et tu, Brute(s)" will follow...
Maybe they forget that more Russians will survive a hot war than Americans as they have more bunkers.
"they can emerge and install themselves as kings over the survivors."
That's the beauty of their plan. As soon as they come out, instant war! Killing off the talking apes will take two or three days tops.
"Maybe they forget that more Russians will survive a hot war than Americans as they have more bunkers."...
You raise an importnat point JMK.
Some more historical fact for the ignorant Amerikan masses who know so little about their superpower counterpart who care more about the survival of there people than do the capitalist elite in the West who look at them only as unit(s) of labor to be discarded when they become "obsolete" and no longer are cost productive to serve their business agenda!
Thanks.
All over the West the 'peace dividend' resulted in the scrapping/selling off of all kinds of command/rescue/safety bunkers and tunnels. There were dozens in the UK alone. Some now housing, some scrapped/left to rot some commercially used.
On the military side there are now defunk hardened aircraft shelters on airfields all across Europe. The twin airfields in East Anglia that housed A10s (the planned main stopper of Russian mobile troops) are now gradually becoming housing. In the UK the US only have Lakenheath (F16/F15) and Fairford (B2/B52 visitors) and the RAF are closing sites as fast as they can.
It is probably true, given the Russian's deeply held fear of invasion from the West, that the same did not happen in Russia. As I understand it the Moscow Metro is still 'hardened'.
Then this week the US announces it is storing tanks in Norway. WTF! Tanks are really useful halfway up a mountainous country with the only nearby flat land in non NATO Sweden.
True. The US has allowed a mine shaft gap to develop.

USAID need not appy.
The refugee story finally made it to my local news, but the talking heads only acknowledged about 100k refugees in Russia. They still tried to make it sound like the rebels were to blame for the refugee problem, as if they were the ones bombing their own cities.
I can see the headline already:
Russia hates Calico kittens - Millions head to Moscow for protest.
Every one of these stories is the same. Just as in the run-up to war in Iraq, and every other media/government collaboration. The stories are based on "facts" which are never revealed or identified. Anonymous sources make allegations, and the sources willing to be named comment on the allegations. If you tried this method of bullshit with a tax auditor or a criminal investigator you would be uckfayed so fast your head would spin.
The average American would never accept this kind of bullshit explanation from you about any matter involving them personally, like how his car got a scratch and your car has a smudge of paint on it matching his car. But when it's about issues outside their personal daily experience, they'll accept this sideways innuendo and inflection as fact, since "everybody knows" Putin is an asshole. In our personal lives, of course, we are perfectly familiar with situations in which a person who is indeed an asshole is still in the right, or is at least the one being wronged. We hate it when life works that way, but we know it does.
Funny how we lose our wisdom when the subject is outside our personal daily purview, and the story is being told to us by some hot chick with nice tits, backed up by a guy in a suit who uses big words and a monotone.
Ukraine is not a NATO member.
So STFU.
Illuminating exchange. State Dept spokeswoman Psaki not willing to say if Russian exercises in Siberia are ok.
August 5, 2014
QUESTION: All right. So the other thing that you were asked yesterday about this Russian military – aviation military exercise that’s going on.
MS. PSAKI: Mm-hmm.
QUESTION: You said you were – the U.S. was very deep – was deeply concerned about it, that it’s provocative. Well, the Russian defense ministry says that this ... exercise is not taking place really close to the Ukrainian border. It’s a thousand kilometers away. And I’m wondering if given that, if you still have deep concerns about this being a provocative exercise.
MS. PSAKI: Well, I think, Matt, the point I was making yesterday that I think I would certainly stick with is that obviously the conditions and the circumstances that any of these exercises are taking place in are a relevant factor, and that when we’re in a situation where we’re trying to reach a cease-fire where the Russians say they want to reach that, these sort of exercises send a different message.
QUESTION: Right. But I mean, it’s really not close to the Ukrainian border. So if you’re deeply concerned – I mean, how far away can the Russians do military exercises without drawing the concern of the United States? I mean, do they have to be in Vladivostok? I mean, how far away from --
QUESTION: (Inaudible) the Czech Republic?
QUESTION: I mean, it --
MS. PSAKI: I don’t have an exact kilometer (inaudible) measurement.
QUESTION: Siberia? Where do they – where exactly is it that the Russians can have military exercises that won’t – that you don’t think – or that you won’t have concerns are provocative to the situation in Ukraine?
MS. PSAKI: If there are exercises in Siberia, I’m happy to speak to that at the time.
QUESTION: Okay. But you still have – you have concerns about this exercise and it being a provocative action, is that correct?
MS. PSAKI: Yes.
QUESTION: Despite the distance, the rather large distance?
MS. PSAKI: Yes
Pathetic, is this the best the US can do?
The US must be in more of a dire strait than we know, they keep egging on for a World War.
Desperate times call for desperate measures.
And it's a double-edged blade.
Beware the cornered rabid dog.
US government = Killing machine
US citizens (excluding politicians) = Lovely people
Such a shame.
Which are those lovely US citizens? I mean, how do you tell them apart?
What about the US Army soldiers? CIA, NSA, FBI, DHS, TSA staff? Hundreds thousands of people employed by the federal bureaucracy?
uhmm, those groups you mentioned are the .gov
But his point is an important one. The line between state and individual is now blurred. This is something people do not get, and goes back to ideas before the French Revolution. If you read up on the developing French Revolution (de Tocqueville) you will see that much of individualism in its laws of hard work and 'each man for himself' was actually instituted by the central government. This was done to free up bureaucracy and resources. The state created distance between its bureaucratic arm and the poor which in turn forced an 'every man for himself' attitude. The central government initiated the idea of letting the poor struggle on their own, find hard work or perish.
'If you do not work then you deserve your poverty,' even if there is no work. This dictat of the state, which individualists seem to take up wholeheartedly, stems from Calvinism. The idea that things are predestined, that there are no great works on earth which can build your path to heaven, has the opposite effect - it causes people to work harder, as there is nothing else. One must live as if he is predestined.
In the same way capitalism/democracy causes people to work, to think like a worker, even when they are not working, and to see themselves as kind citizens even when they are not. The diffusion of bureaucracy into all sectors of Western society is the natural outcome of such ideas. The individual is not what it seems. As Kafka suggested, he is a bureaucrat who simply does not know it.

“As other conflicts in the former Soviet Union have shown, once there is a Russian military presence it usually never leaves.”
Or:
As other conflicts around the globe have shown, once there is a U.S. (e.g. military) presence it usually never leaves.
Which statement is mostly true?
lets look at the number of foreign bases, in fact the US has more foreign bases than the rest of the world combined many times over, including bases in countries where they don't want them.
As for russia, they have bases in can't think of any, Crimea doesn't count.
Only the Oligarch controlled US Government may invade under "humanitarian" pretenses, provide material aid to a nation committing genocide, force sovereign nations to use it's scrip, spy on alleged allies, allegedly blackmail domestic and foreign elected officials, and lie with impunity.
ROFL. Epic hypocrisy.
Even a terminally ill , pissed Amurikan ( westerner ) would be unwilling to strap on a vest and shake hands with Chucky. That's the only language these sociopaths comprehend.
A million dissenting voices wont generate this Expression of Interest (EOI).
If only .01% of the disaffected could share the fervor of the football fan.
So what? Ukraine is not a NATO member. It was part of the Soviet Union and Russia before that. Not our concern. Russia does not have to allow genocide and ethinc cleansing and a million refugees, just because NATO wants to turn Ukraine into a NATO base. Ukraine is a vital Russian interest, not an American one.
It seems to me that the Ukies have all their manpower and gear in East Ukrane bogged down with the militia, Odessa from the south and Belarus from the north, in a pincher towards Kiev? the Russians do not need to do anything once winter comes and the ukies start starving freezing to death.

Interfax - 08/06 19:03 Putin decree bans or limits farm produce, food imports from countries party to sanctions against Russia
http://rt.com/news/178484-putin-russia-sanctions-agriculture/
A 1-year ban has been imposed on certain agricultural produce, foods and raw materials from countries that have sanctioned Russia. A law on economic measures to protect the country has been signed by President Putin.
Vladimir Putin has signed a decree on countermeasures in response to sanctions imposed on Russia by a number of states over the Ukrainian crisis, the Kremlin said on its website.
While the law comes into force immediately, the government has been tasked to come up with a concrete list of imports to be banned.
Perhaps Russia should also stop its supply of low-enriched uranium fuel to commercial power-plants in America.
Currently, Russia supplies around 30% of the uranium imported by the U.S.; a contract signed in 2009, commencing this year until 2020.
Consequences would be interesting ..
All this confirms is that Russia has made it clear to the US and UN that they are indeed going in. It seems to be a pretty clever move. Think about it. Putin announces to the world that Russia is going in to save the lives of the people of Eastern Ukraine by supplying humanitarian aid. Then the Ukrainian army fires on the Russian troops who are delivering food, medicine and water to desperate innocent people. What will be the response of the world community? They will applaud Putin for his efforts and shun the Ukrainian government! What is Russia to do at this point? Crush the Ukrainians! It was self defense Obammy, check!
But that is not what the MSM would report.
Who cares what idiotic zombies watching that think?

It claimed the stolen information came from more than 420,000 websites, including "many leaders in virtually all industries across the world".
Hold Security did not give details of the companies affected by the hack.

"With hundreds of thousands of sites affected, the list includes many leaders in virtually all industries across the world, as well as a multitude of small or even personal websites."

Back on sanctions
Russia will soon unveil a series of protective economic measures – including in the sensitive space industry – aimed at taking the edge off recent Western sanctions, Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin said Wednesday.
"All our measures will be aimed, primarily, at protecting our economy," Rogozin, who oversees the defense and space industry, told reporters during his visit to the Energia space corporation.
"We will protect ourselves in a tough, persistent and active manner," Rogozin said, adding that the measures will be announced soon.
The deputy prime minister stressed that the measures were not devised to hurt Russia's Western partners, but would seek to mitigate the impact of the recent economic restrictions on Russian companies.
“They won’t be aimed at making things worse for Western companies. It’s not in our interests,” the deputy prime minister noted.
Rogozin said one of the main goals would be to keep the country’s space and rocket industry afloat.

The head of Russia’s agricultural watchdog Rosselkhoznadzor, Sergei Dankvert, will discuss the possibility of an increase in the import of fruits and vegetables from Turkey with Turkish Agricultural Ministry representative Nihat Pakdil on August 8, a Rospotrebnadzor statement said.
The talks will be held in a format of telephone conference.
On August 1, Rosselkhoznadzor imposed a ban on all fruits and vegetables imported from Poland, citing numerous licensing breaches and the detection of quarantined items.
And finally an 'up yours moment, who says we don't have friends? No mention of US sanctions just UN.
Russia's participation in Iranian crude oil deliveries, including to Russia, does not violate UN Security Council resolutions restricting cooperation with Tehran over its controversial nuclear program, Energy Minister Alexander Novak said Wednesday.
“The Iranian side has offered [Russia] to take part in arranging shipments of [Iranian] crude oil…the actual delivery volumes will be determined according to the market demand,” Novak said in statement.
“I’d like to emphasize that cooperation between our countries does not violate the UN Security Council's resolutions,” Novak said.

What I wonder is - who is paying for the Polish mercenaries currently targeting ethnic Russian Ukrainians?
Profits from fruit exports?
Be interesting to know the numbers of the American citizens of Jewish faith voluntarily in the US Armed forces versus the IDF...at the grunt level that is.
The grunt level jew has nothing to do with the mad-hatter Zionist elite and therefore are sane and would naturally not want to volunteer and probably do not.
Using peace keeping as a pretext? Who would do such a terrible thing. Never happened that wars were fought under the pretense of peace.
takes one to know one.
Chuck Hagel surfaces to make a couple of comments. Where has this mook been lately?
Hagel himself is a bigger threat to peace than all the Russian troops along the border, which reminds me that the US plans to give Ukraine a bunch of money to harder its borders and will likely send some US Border Patrol guys over to show them how to do it.
