Market Catalyst? East Ukraine Rebel Leader Strelkov "Gravely Injured" According To A Russian Media Report; Promptly Denied As Fake
Moments after the tragic news that Brazil's presidential candidate Eduardo Campos died in a plane crash, Russian Itar-Tass reported, citing press agency Novorossya, that another prominent public figure, this time the leader of the Donetsk rebels and the minister of defense of the Donetsk People's Republic has been "seriously injured."
From Itar-Tass:
The Defence Minister of the People's Republic of Donetsk (DNI) Igor Strelkov has been seriously injured. This was reported by "Novorossia".
"Igor Strelkov was seriously wounded. This is what we were told by a source in the New Russia. The condition of the Minister of Defence of the DNI is serious, - the report says.
So far ITAR-TASS does not have confirmation of this report from other sources.
Igor Strelkov was appointed head of the Security Council and the Minister of Defence of the Republic of Donetsk May 15th. In June, he was added to the United States sanctions list.
It is possible that this news, so far unconfirmed, was the catalyst that sent stocks surging earlier as it may (or may not, depending on one's angle) indicate a de-escalation if only by necessity.
Update: it took minutes for another media outlet, a Russian one again, this tima RIA, to deny the Itar-TASS report. Google translated
The DNR militia leadership denied the information about the alleged seriously wounded militia commander Igor Strelkov.
Earlier, some media reported that the Gunmen wounded and is in serious condition.
"This is nonsense," - told RIA Novosti Head of the Political Department of International Information Service of the Ministry of Defense DNI Vladislav Brig.
According to him, the information about it first appeared on "some incomprehensible fake resources created specifically for the stuffing of misinformation." He assured that with the shooting, "all right."
Press office of the self-proclaimed People's Republic of Donetsk also does not confirm information about the injury Strelkova. "We contacted the deputy Strelkova, Berezin, it is not this information confirms the" - told RIA Novosti press officer.
So just more disinformation, largely as expected on anything originating out of east Ukraine. Of course, if stocks indeed soared on this "report" when it originally came out, don't expect them to retrace any gains on the denial.

BULLISH
False Flag? It's convenient that the humantarian relif convoy is on the way while 45,000 Russ Troops line up on the border.
Is it just me, or does the man in the picture have a passing resemblence to a certain German corporal?

Strelkov and the troops under his command have pretty much singlehandedly held off the Petrodollar Hegemon for several months now. All sorts of Blackwater type creeps and goons have come a'callin, to no avail.
Won't surprise me one bit if ZOG put a hefty price on his head.
Not really. If you have any grounding in Russia history he resembles most a Czarist Military Officer type from the late 1800's to the First World War. A typical Russian of mixed race. I can see why some see a bit of hitler in him, but really, I have seen dozens of typical Russian Imperial Officers looking quite like him. He has a very aristocratic look of Imperial Russia. Remember the aristocracy had much mixed blood, French, German and Scandinavian along with ethnic Great Russian.
I catch an aura of Robert E. Lee about him. A touch of Noblesse Oblige. Too bad the Nouvo-rebs haven't figured out how to play off of the rebel theme. After all, all they want to do is secede, just like our "founding fathers" and the South. IMO the Nuovorussians are missing an opportunity to play to the sentiments of all those who would like to secede from the madness and corruption around us.
This is one of the reasons all these central bank serf countries we call the "west" are desperate to squelch any talk of secession. When they snuff out nuovorussia, they snuff out part of all would be secessionists.
They say fire but I must doubt fire. Get it? Ms Doubtfire.

…In an article published by Op-Ed News, Eric Zuesse supports my reports of indications that Washington is preparing for a nuclear first strike against Russia.
US war doctrine has been changed. US nuclear weapons are no longer restricted to a retaliatory force, but have been elevated to the role of preemptive nuclear attack. Washington pulled out of the Anti-Ballistic Missile Treaty with Russia and is developing and deploying an ABM shield. Washington is demonizing Russia and Russia’s President with shameless lies and propaganda, thus preparing the populations of the US and its client states for war with Russia.
Washington has been convinced by neoconservatives that Russian strategic nuclear forces are in run down and unprepared condition and are sitting ducks for attack. This false belief is based on out-of-date information, a decade old, such as the argument presented in “The Rise of U.S. Nuclear Primacy” by Keir A. Lieber and Daryl G. Press in the April 2006 issue of Foreign Affairs, a publication of the Council on Foreign Relations, an organization of American elites. http://www.foreignaffairs.com/articles/61508/keir-a-lieber-and-daryl-g-press/the-rise-of-us-nuclear-primacy
Regardless of the condition of Russian nuclear forces, the success of Washington’s first strike and degree of protection provided by Washington’s ABM shield against retaliation, the article I posted by Steven Starr, “The Lethality of Nuclear Weapons,” makes clear that nuclear war has no winners. Everyone dies. http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2014/05/30/lethality-nuclear-weapons/
In an article published in the December 2008 issue of Physics Today, three atmospheric scientists point out that even the substantial reduction in nuclear arsenals that the Strategic Offensive Reductions Treaty hoped to achieve, from 70,000 warheads in 1986 to 1700-2200 warheads by the end of 2012, did not reduce the threat that nuclear war presents to life on earth. The authors conclude that in addition to the direct blast effects of hundreds of millions of human fatalities, “the indirect effects would likely eliminate the majority of the human population.” The stratospheric smoke from firestorms would cause nuclear winter and agricultural collapse. Those who did not perish from blast and radiation would starve to death…
If the White House Fool, Washington’s media whores and European vassals convince Russia that war is in the cards, war will be in the cards. As there is no prospect whatsoever of NATO being able to mount a conventional offensive threat against Russia anywhere near the size and power of the German invasion force in 1941 that met with destruction, the war will be nuclear, which will mean the end of all of us….

Calgon, take me away.
I listened to a few of his press conferences on Saker of the Vineyard web site. He seemed like he and the militia were trying to protect the citizens from evil Kiev Maidan nazis and dual citizen oligarch murderers. I hope he is alright.
A Russian tweet that 'all is well' should do the trick.
Worked last Friday.
Them's fightin tweets.
I keep waiting for the "Tweet heard 'round the world" that will officially usher in WWIII.

Dont need the Humanitarian supplies now I guess
where's that confounded convoy? did they get lost?
They are held-up by the film crew doing the Russian version of the movie sequal of the same name.

DND: the Message of the wound Strelkova - delirium
13.08.2014 - 20:02
Information about the alleged serious injury to the commander of the host of Igor strelkov not true, said the leadership of the militia DND.
As stated by RIA Novosti, the head of the Department of international information service of the political Department of the Ministry of defence DND Vladislav Brig, "this is nonsense".
According to him, the information about it first appeared on "some strange fake resource created specifically for spreading misinformation". Brig assured that Small "all right."
Who's in charge of he news again? And are those real rioters or is this some Hollywood thingy?
True story: bullish.
False story: bullish.
Probably depends both the definition of the "is" as well as "seriously", but BULLISH regardless, since it's a day that end in "y"...
Nevermind....back to Tony Stewert or something
Send fat hot head Tony Stewart to Ferguson, MO in a Chevy with the N word in BIG letters on each side of the car. We could combine two stories. I hope that douchebag goes to jail.
You don't get out of your fucking car on a poorly lit dirt track in a dark suit and challenge oncoming cars. The autopsy report came back and confirmed that the kid died from stupidity and is now a lead candidate for the Darwanism awards.
In other news, Tony is now Robin Williams' biggest fan.
Not your downer, but have you ever sat in a winged sprint car, Freddie? If you had, you'd know you can only see what's immediately in front of you and to your left.
I've watched the videos a few dozen times, and there's more than one 'version". In the first one I found, the audio appears to be out of sync with the video, making it seem like Tony gassed it as he approached young Kevin.
Another version; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qILmIyG6qno makes more sense. Tony does in fact gas it as he's passing Ward- Why would he do that?
My opinion (I know, like my asshole) is that by the time Tony saw him, it was too late to simply drive around him. Instinctively, once his front axle was adjacent to Ward, he steered to the right and gassed it, trying to get the rear end of the car to swing to the left.
Additionally, they were coming out of a turn, and Tony's view of Ward was more than likely blocked by the #45 car ahead of him.
I can't defend Tony Stewart for sometimes being an outright asshole, but he's neither stupid, nor a killer.
Watch this half-speed video, and then tell me what you think- http://khak.com/update-on-the-kevin-ward-jr-tony-stewart-tragedy/
I initally thought Ward Jr. disappeared beneath the undercarriage of the 14 car, but if you watch closely, you will see Ward Jr. hanging from its' wing. Goddam! Maybe it's possible that that the initial impact propelled him up there, but I sorta doubt it.
This stupid kid thought he could catch and hold onto an object 13 times his weight, which was moving at somewhere between 30 and 50 miles per hour.
Tony didn'i give the kid no room, on either the previous lap or the one which took his life. That's how racing works.
Still, Kevin Ward Jr. is dead. Maybe he can prevent more stupid kids from dying, but stupidity is flourishing, so I kinda doubt that, too.
I sincerely hope that Kevin's dad has been neutered. We don't need any more of his kind.
looks liuke sisi is taking no chances after his stop overs in Saudi and Russia

wow, that's one giant u-turn.
Putin's next move?
If the violence esculates and Crimea is threatened at all, I'll bet a peso Putin will step in militarily.
Why use the aid to resupply the troops on the border, of course.
Is he a good guy or Kiev guy?
Good guy. His milita troops are kicking the Ukies/nazis/mercenaries arses. they also give Ukie conscrpts safe passage if they surrender.
You mean the spetz forces under his command don't you?
ot: ebola:
Instantaneous infection rate (smoothed over three data releases) is now:
13 Aug 14 - 40/day
11 Aug 14 - 37/day
08 Aug 14 - 54/day
06 Aug 14 - 55/day
04 Aug 14 - 57/day
02 Aug 14 - 43/day
29 Jul 14 - 38/day
27 Jul 14 - 23/day
23 Jul 14 - 12/day
17 Jul 14 - 10/day
Morbidity: 54%
(Date above is day WHO statistics were posted, e.g 02 Aug is compiled data as of 30 Jul).

The greatest shortcoming of the human race may be our inability to understand the exponential function, according to the quote, but I know it well enough to tell that this is not an exponential function.
Another public scare bullshit. I guess H1N-whatever lost its flavor and the bees whose extinction was, according to Einstein capable of wiping out the human race in 4 years has also been delayed.
I'm already looking forward to the next year's plague. Mayan calendar has expired, unfortunately, so I'll have to look for some othe doomsday clock to keep track of events.
WHO figures.Although I agree with your sentiments, I don't think anything
can be extrapolated from these stats.
The situation on the ground is prolly far different.
Don't forget the WHO announced the pestes plague was completely erradicated
back in the 1990's. Anything from them should be regarded with extreme caution.
WHO is as useful as tits on a boar.
So, you are saying the infection rate has peaked and now its declining.
I think you are reading the numbers backwards. the latest 2 day period had the second hightest cases/day that has been reported (64 cases/day). Right now the data is best fit to a linear increase, but the numbers are definitely increasing over time. the average number of cases/day goes up by 10 about every 10 days.
The Fog of War turns into Acid Rain
Whoever programmed these Algos, which are 100% of the market (not counting the institutional investors and herded males) sure programmed in allot of human nuances, the programmers must be geniuses. To think "the market" can react correctly to such subtle things like an East Ukrainian militia leader getting injured.
I know someone who worked on a start up that did that. They would sniff social media feeds for market moving stories. The company failed. the technology worked but their funding ended.
Nothing to see here. Click the link and move along...... move along. Just another excuse to make sure silver stays under $20...... life is good.

And que the silver dump....
Too late.

"It is possible that this news, so far unconfirmed, was the catalyst that sent stocks surging earlier as it may (or may not, depending on one's angle) indicate a de-escalation if only by necessity."
Nope!... No de-escalations here unless of course you work for the Federal Reserve and are struggling keeping window dressing under control with HFTs and unknown quantities of liquidity injections.
This announcement along with the humanitarian convoy is getting the cold shoulder is about to get very nasty indeed.
I see many dead "blue helmeted" Zionists and their goy accomplices starting with Mr. Ihor Kolomoyskyi coming shortly...
"We came, we saw, he died - hahahahaha" ~ Hillary Clinton
OT but something all should be aware of...there is a shortage of the basic IV fluid that goes into almost every IV given. It is called normal saline. It is a solution about like that in the human body. It is made of salt and water..that is all.
The shortage is apparently due to manufacturing bottle necks but some of the compnies blame the FDA for too rigorous regulation.
The product, while simple is ESSENTIAL! Almost no IV can be given without it. That means if there is no normal saline then there is no chemo therapy, there is no IV hydration and there is no IV antibiotic administration. Get that???
I see this as a major and serious failure of the regulator. The FDA controls almost every aspect of medicine. They say what gets produced and what does not.
I believe the problem is that this is not a major profit center for the companies that make this stuff. It is relatively cheap (less the $2 per litre). The bottom line of Baxter is not hurt if their IV fluid sales slips. In assuming the control of the system the FDA also bears the burden of seeing that all parts of the system are available. It appears they have seriously failed. Next time a child with diarrhea can't be hydrated and dies it will be a death on the hands of the FDA.
It sounds simple and it should be. This is a serious and profound failure of this administration. They just don't seem to do business. They do not pay attention to detail and yet they demand authority over every aspect of the process.
The worst part is that there is no solution. Ramping production is said to take 5 years. There are foreign sources but they are not adequate. If there is a major flu outbreak there could be many, many unneeded deaths.
Don't worry, I'm sure someone will sell plenty of abnormal saline.
Also, I like how you think this stanglehold upon humanity is in any way a "failure." How better do you kill millions/billions without any person to hold accountable?
NA
Conspiracy aside this is a pretty clear cut issue that should enrage even those who believe all is well. It will have real and possibly immediate consequences. It is in my practice right now! I am unable to do some of the things that my patients rely on me for. Imagine being turned away at the emergency room when you need IV antibiotics simply because the ER does not have salt water!
Beside the impact on my ability to deliver care the simplicity of the problem is what bothers me. In any country with a functioning medical system this should be the very last thing to cause problems. It is regulatory failure. There is no shortage of salt or water or plastic bags. The shortage is one of insight and care.
Instead of bitching about it, see it as an opportunity and start producing it yourself. As if people have never survived the flu without going to the hospital or seeing a doctor. Oh no, the government isn't taking care of us! It would appear YOU are the problem...
The anti fascist resistance of Donbas is a marvel of modern warfare.
Totally outnumbered with at least 1:100 ratio and totally outgunned in every form of weaponry, they are not only holding on to their ground but also inflicting massive casualties to the reptilian slaves of the wall street.
i gotta share this one. since MH17 aside from finding this site shown in the link below, i especially like the author. the only thing he didn't include is the "coincidence" of the BRIC Bank meeting the days before, but i wouldn't expect him to know that angle as much as the other ... the need to get the EU to go along with the Sanctions they had just balked on
BTW, Why wasn't the Faked youtube, created the day before MH17 was downed, enough Proof? Don't the families of those killed want the Facts. Justice? What happened to the release of the audio from the Black Box and Air Trafic Control tower of KIEV?

Plane crashes are the leading cause of death among opponents of the oligarchy. Must be all that travel causing elevated risk.
After Putin made deal with Merkel and send death squads to Ukraine in order eliminate any tracks from those terrorists to Kremlin - this "rebel leader" tried to escape from city - but was unsuccessful.
I guess he got a bullet in his ass.
Coming from you, a dumb Ukie fed lies from his superiors, I am sure that Strelkov is doing just fine.
This just came in:
Russian "humatarian aid" (full with weapons & ammo for terorists) disappearded. News goes that column with cargo has spilt after Russia has refused to let Ukraine check cargo and/or Red Cross to take over cargo at Ukraine border.
Now Russia will try to get those weapons & ammo over that part of Ukraine border where terorists are in control - no no Red Cross is in control of it.
Bullshit
Viedokolis is just a bad liar, like all of the stupid Ukies yelling fuck Putin, when it is their own oligarchic class that is screwing them.
