Putin Warns Of Risk Of Major Conflict, Says Dollar Losing Reserve Currency Status
Having been relatively quiet for a while, Russia's leader Vladimir, speaking in Sochi (following meetings with Middle East crown princes who confirmed Russia as a key partner - "isolated"?), has unleashed his most aggressive statements with regard the failing world order:
- *PUTIN SAYS U.S. DOLLAR LOSING TRUST AS RESERVE CURRENCY
- *PUTIN: WORLD WITHOUT RULES IS POSSIBILITY; ANARCHY GROWING
Adding that the risk of major conflicts involving major countries is growing, as well as the risk of arms control treaties being violated, Putin exclaimed that the US-led unipolar world is like a dictatorship over other countries and that "US leadership brings no good for others," and calls for a new global consensus.
Having met Crown Prince Al Nahyan of Abu Dhabi in Sochi, who confirmed that Moscow “plays a very important role in the Middle East," and added that he had no doubts that his country and Russia “are bound by a privileged relationship," it appears Russia is less "isolated" than the West would have many believe.

Escalation? It seems sabre-rattling is picking up as The Washington Times reports,
Russian military provocations have increased so much over the seven months since Moscow annexed Crimea from Ukraine that Washington and its allies are scrambling defense assets on a nearly daily basis in response to air, sea and land incursions by Vladimir Putin’s forces.
Not only is Moscow continuing to foment unrest in Eastern Ukraine, U.S. officials and regional security experts say Russian fighter jets are testing U.S. reaction times over Alaska and Japan’s ability to scramble planes over its northern islands — all while haunting Sweden’s navy and antagonizing Estonia’s tiny national security force.
“What’s going on is a radical escalation of aggressive Russian muscle flexing and posturing designed to demonstrate that Russia is no longer a defeated power of the Cold War era,” says Ariel Cohen, who heads the Center for Energy, National Resources and Geopolitics at the Institute for the Analysis of Global Security in Washington.
“The more we retreat, the more we are encouraging Russia to behave in a more aggressive way,” Mr. Cohen said. “We need to be engaging more deeply with our Central Asian allies, but instead we are in the process of abandoning turf to Russia, and it’s wrong — it’s against our interests geopolitically to let Russia feel that they all of a sudden have won all the turf without firing a shot.”

What else is he gonna say - the Ruble to USD exchange rate was 33 to 1USD last year, today it is 42 to 1USD. He BETTER hope that the USD will decrease in value!
I am not a Faux News dollar hegemonist, just pointing out - Putin is still a politician.
You're a bit of a dim bulb, comrade.
Hope is not a strategy. Besides, the RUB-USD squeeze is combat, not happenstance.
No - there are things I agree with Putin on - but he is still a politician and prone to spinning. It might be a good idea to keep in mind that while he is standing up to EU and USA, he is in the meantime putting Russia in an inferior position with respect to the Chinese, which is not good.
One could be excused for thinking the US strategy is to drive Russia into China's arms.
i don't know that it is weaker for russia. russia's big problem is demographic, so it china on the other side of the scale. russia has land and a small and shrinking population. china has a huge and still growing population bordering a vast empty expanse of resource filled russian land. between the two of them, russia nad china have everything humans need except warm yearround beaches. this agreement is the beginning of big things for maggog. wait until india joins them in bollywood love.
Russia population is growing
ignorant post
Gog, Magog can be correctly identified from ancient maps
any real research clears this lie
so buy some cheap russian caviar or vodka or a wife. russia doesn't really need dollars because it doesn't need oil. everything else can be swapped.....for gold.
Faux News? You childishly think that any news is any different? TV is for retards who support The Matrix and their own serfdom. You sound like a sheep.
At last someone speaks the truth. Un-fortunately it's difficult to hear. People in general are stuck something like 60 years behind times. "Us leadership brings no good for others"---Yeah. and you wonder why I'm rootin for Putin. I don't want a USA incorporated world dictatorship. it's much better to have another point of view and another person, country you have to listen to. the question is, how many people are coming around to the same conclusion? What benefit derives from the drone killing run from Las Vegas.? What kind of ligitimate government kills a journalist in Yemen, for speaking the truth, and then goes back and kills his teenage son, with another drone. apparently we need somebody to tell us our government is in the control of monsters of deception and mis-directed, comic book quality, "intrigue". If he's going to do it; fine. I hope a lot of people listen to what he says.
meanwhile....
and i want all ya'll to watch it god dammit.

Well done.
“The more we retreat, the more we are encouraging Russia to behave in a more aggressive way,” Mr. Cohen said.
Yes, yes Mr. Cohen. All that retreating the US has done in the last 14 years. By all means, what the world needs now is the Third World War. Coming right up you swine!
Yeah, Cohen must mean the way we've retreated from Libya, Syria, Afghanistan, Ukraine coop, droning in Pakistan and Yemen, deposing leaders in Egypt, growing NATO beyond previously agreed treaties, sanctions in Iran and Russia. Man-oh-man has the USSA retreated from the world...
I bet I could improve Mr. Cohen's understanding if I got locked in a room with him for about twenty minutes.
I doubt it. He'd pull your undies over your head and you'd be crying Uncle in no time at all. :-)
Putin is a Zionist stooge. His role will be to sacrifice Russia to obtain it's raw materials.
No other way to say this but ... "WOW! what a dumb ass"...
LOL. How many Shekels did they pay you to post that?
now you're cracking me up Capt. Kirk. What a screen name, eh? pretty subtle. LOL.
Guessed the libtards poked the Russian bear way too many times. It has some huge claws that can take the heads off the libtards running the show in DC.
Putin,the border is open, just have 2,000 Africans infected with Ebola storm into the US. It would overwhelm the health system and spread within the US.
SSSHHH,
...Anal(ysis) Global Security in Washington...
fixed.
....anyone heard any trooof cum out of Oblabla's mouth in the last 6 years?
I thought not.
Ariel Cohen? HHHMmmmm.........now I wonder what tribe he belongs to? Maybe one of the West Kerry Cohanes....? No, I don't think so, more like one of the tribe that crucified Russia during the revolution and were the primary leaders of the slaughter both in Russia and Ukraine during the Holomodor, but we musn't speak of that. There was only ever one Genocide and to speak of any other is to denigrate the holohoax. Truly, there's no business like shoah business. Ask the Israelis, they are still panhandling the shekels from Germany. And wasn't it Wall Street, along with the Chicago boy and Harvard who, along with the US gummint, which led and facilitated the drunk Yeltsin to enable the plundering of Russian state assets by the Tribal Oligarchs, such as Berezoyski, Abramovich, and that darling of the Western elite shabbos goys, Khordokovski, who was property jailed for his plunder, and just before he got to sell off his ill gotten gains to who else? The RedShields.
Lets not forget Murder Inc either, the italians had nothing on the joos.
Does this mean that the lamestream will start covering Russia again?
.... covered a lot of territory ... but see no mention hoo putin has to win super bowl ...
"Says Dollar Losing Reserve Currency Status"
A number of us already know this.
The Federal Reserve can't destroy the US dollar fast enough.
Ben Benanke and his son are maxing out their loans. They already know the US dollar is toast.
Anarchy you say? Isn't that right up the alley of the right-wingers?
Do you like rhetorical questions?
I think I honestly know where all of the anarchists of America's past have gone - they've become Republicans. A world with no rules, no laws, no regulations. An anarchist's wet dream. Not to mention a Republican's wet dream.
I'm right. You're just going to down-vote me because you know I'm right.
Great name Pointless Nebbish...
SmallerGovNow2, give me ways you'd limit government, then give me ways you'd help government grow. Because I'm betting your idea of smaller government doesn't match the meaning of the word "smaller".
Return to constitutional authorities only. Eliminate the Departments of Education, Energy, Agriculture, the EPA, NSA, and others. Leave the environment and education up to the states as there is way too much duplication. Eliminate all but a very few military bases around the world and cut the DOD in half (which is one of the legitimate functions of the Federal Gov under the US constitution). Stop all foriegn aide and interventionist policy. Secure our borders, protect private property rights, abolish or highly cut the IRS and produce a five page or less tax code. Term limits. Bring back Glas-Steagal. Stop the bail outs for the TBTF banks. Refute all debt. And last but not least, eliminate the Federal Reserve.
Then you'll get a government that becomes popular because it appears benevolent, at least outwardly and for a time. Been there before (e.g. the early U.S. republic). It doesn't change anything fundamental about the state, such as the blatant violation of the principle of private property when taxes are demanded, for example.
You can't protect something that you are simultaneously attacking. By definition taxation violates private property rights.
If you don't deal with the core issues such as this and instead focus on things that only make the thing more efficient at what it is (the highest level organized crime organization) and look less bad, you're only making things worse in the long run for all of us. Careful what you wish...
If anything, the FED is an improvement, because it's a simple fraud that one can identify and avoid, whereas a taxing government is involved mostly in violent crime and property crime which makes it very complicated when we want to actually defend against it.
Small enough for ya?
Hey, you're one smart doggy.
yea, anarchist are aligned with republicans, getting desperate are you? Election closing in around you? Starting to panic? Relax Tsard, republicans are just the right wing of the same bird of prey, grow up and open your eyes and think for yourself for once in your life. Get that kollege edjukashun you still owe on out of your head.
I'm sorry. I'm not intelligent enuf to unerstan wut you rote.
Well, at least your honest, that's a start.
*PUTIN: WORLD WITHOUT RULES IS POSSIBILITY; ANARCHY GROWING
This is what happens when those responsible for the rules decide they can change them at anytime because they aren't winning anymore.
No, Putin just looked outside his own window. He cut food imports, jacked up inflation for everyone, can't auction his debt, and shut every business out of global capital markets.
Anarchy is growing indeed.
How does Putin "jack up inflation"?
I know Obola and his bosses run the printing presses night and day. This is one way to "jack up inflation." Go back to watching TV with the other retards or shuffle some papers at you desk at The State Dept.
Russia’s central bank has spent more than $17 billion in October to slow the steepest currency retreat in the world in the last three months after U.S. and European Union sanctions over Ukraine triggered a dollar shortage and oil slipped to a four-year low.

And for the latest news from Latvia:
You said that 2 years ago. And two years from now you'll still be saying it. Remind us again who is the most famous Latvian who ever lived(don't say Baryshnikov just because you have a thing for guys in tight tights)
"You said that 2 years ago. And two years from now you'll still be saying it"
Either you now post a link to text that proves your claim or you are just a small liar who has now been caught with pants down :D
Tight tights. Pants down.
Don't you Latvians ever come up for air? :oD
So you admit that you are liar - good for you! That's a start :D
I, Sir, a liar?
Isn't that an example of the pot calling the kettle black?
Tell me..are you what the US taxpayer gets for our $5 Bill USD investment?
non compos mentis viedoklis
Latvians are a.) butt-hurt, and b.) can't remember the Stalin the Mad dictator is dead.
And too stupid to know that Soviet was never a Russian construct
Exactly! Strelkov remembers. He is a White Russian and a Christian. Russia was hijacked in 1917 by the same people who have hijacked America starting probably in 1861 then 1913 then 1964 when JFK was killed trying to abolish the Fed.
Great video with Putin. One of my favorites. He is visiting the church where he was baptised. A three hour midnight mass vigil during Christmas. Show me ONE American politician doing something like this. Maybe Rick Santorum or a few others.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXhHqfMFLCI
Putin is very candid. His mother had to sneak him to the church for baptism as his father was a communist and a proud man.
You were planted so long ago; why did it take you so long to flower?
We are currently witnessing an unfolding geopolitical battle that will decide if this 'self-appointed big brother' will continue the established dominance. This battle is between the US/EU (aka the Tribe) and the emerging BRICS, who can provide the much needed counter-balance for this crazy big-brother rule that has been going from bad to worse in the past few decades. I feel the Iraq invasion was a particular low point that basically threw international law out of the window and made a mockery out of the UN. The Tribe is getting desperate to maintain the control that is clearly slipping away due to a number of factors. Basically what is needed is an alternative to all US-led organizations, i.e. the reserve currency, IMF, NATO etc. The BRICS (who control most of the physical assets anyway) can provide this alternative so that NO SINGLE COUNTRY IS ABOVE THE LAW.
Putine regime consists of oligarhs, ex-KBS agents,etc. and they are in no respect to individual rights.
There is fight between two evils - not west oligarchs VS some kind of BRICS who represents people and their individual rights. Just look at Putin regime and China - no respect to democracy at all.
Sure, Putin is playing by the same rules... but you cannot beat the Tribe with "democracy"... they will infiltrate and crush you from within, it has been done before and will be done again and both the Russians and the Chinese have got it figured out by now... all this talk about "democracy" is total rubbish, since this "democracy" is for the fat cats anyway, it's all about the control of resources. I repeat - no single country should be ABOVE THE LAW. Right now the USA can do whatever they want. Look at Syria and the "broad coalition" - even UK and Canada are not bombing Syria... this is a fucking joke, the USA can bomb and sanction anyone they want and nobody can do shit about it, this is not a normal situation.
Same with Putin regime - also invading Ukraine.
But just because west oligarchs are doing international crimes I won't cheer for Putin regime that is also doing crimes in other countries.
What those fat cats is so diferent from these fat cats?
Russia's Rosneft Asks for $48 Billion From State Wealth Fund as Sanctions Bitehttp://www.ibtimes.co.uk/russias-rosneft-asks-48-billion-state-wealth-fu...
Russia looks to compensate its sanctioned elitehttp://bigstory.ap.org/article/6a2b93aac55c40c9a1b0b0bcc11a07d9/russia-g...
...invading Ukraine...
PLease do tell! You know s.t. new?
1.) It's Putin regime goons that are in Ukraine attacking Ukranians - citizens and army. Here you can see Russian made tanks T-72B1 that are only in Russian army, with so called "seperatist" flags driving in city streets. Either it's Russia or Ukraine - both scenarious it prooves that Putin regime is attacking Ukranians using this banner of "seperatists". http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_d7m_Ua4wFo
2.) And in this Putin regime propoganda channel material failure http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zv39Lc5oSVs you can see & hear two things:
2.1.) It's "separatists" who are shooting to Ukraine army from civilian houses and than run away from them - knowing that they are provoking reply fire and in that way puting civilians under danger.
2.2.) As you can hear - they are saying that Ukraine army is shooting GRAD when actually you can hear GRAD but no explosions, that means that actually it's separatists who are shooting GRAD and not Ukraine army. So here you go - these are the ones who are bombarding houses.
3.) Russian soldier mother recieve information that their sons are dead during training or from heart attack. Those who recieve bodies can't look at them and must be burried during night and must keep silence. No honor to those man. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LHE_2NTHGvo
Burnt-out Russian tanks found in east Ukraine Charred Russian military vehicles support Ukraine, Western claims that pro-Russian rebels were backed by Russian troops, equipment.http://www.haaretz.com/news/world/1.622502
1 Wrong. http://www.globalsecurity.org/military/world/ukraine/groundforces-equipm... Ukraine has 1032 T-72 with (Kontakt reactive armour produced in Donetsk)
example, ukranian president and ukranian T-72B:
http://www.armyrecognition.com/images/stories/east_europe/ukraine/main_b...
2 This is war zone? It's easy to find thousands of videos where you can clearly see who shoots where... don't even bother. People evacuated from this buildings long ago... one old women refused, yeah...
3 This already was disgarded as a simple lie by Vasileva(known liyer not on one ocasion...)... list of "killed russian forces solders" for some reason))) equales to list of soccer players of team "Gazovik"... all of whom alive and well... and preparingh lawsuits against her...
Your Haaretz should know, that there is no T-72BM in Russian army...)))
So where is the proof of Russian forces present?
to viedoklis_lv
you seems to know a lot of "facts" yet somehow you seem to be totally ignorant of facts that do not support your narative.
It's a well known fact that Ukraine bought old, useless NON functioning Russian tanks not a while ago from Hungary.
Better luck next time shilly boy.
I don't cheer for Putin (I undertand well enough what this guy represents), but the sad reality is that the world today needs someone like him to provide this needed counter-balance (unfortunately Ukraine is a victim of circumstances and has been cought up in this geopolitical battle), if there's no balance and the US hegemony continues unabated we will be all screwed in the long run anyway, that is pretty clear to me. Many people think that if Putin is crushed then somehow everything will be OK with the world - that is a very flawed line of thought.
I agree that there should be a ballance. But two criminal fighting to each other won't help situation.
We need an oposition that represent people - their individual rights, their freedom their resources, not another criminal oligarch regime with same tactics.
Remember - when fighting a dragon be careful not to become one. Putin regime is same evil as those other international oligarch regime. Both needed to be eliminated - now!
Yes, agreed, - but sadly I don't have much hope for any reasonable change to the "power to the people" (and all that entails, i.e. true democracy with individual rights, freedom etc.) any time soon... the American Dream is long gone, you can clearly see many Americans are actually fed up with their own criminal cabal (FED & the military-industrial complex) dictatorship. America as a great country that can lead by example is gone, the leaders that have led America over the past few decades have gone from bad to worse... this is a very sad state of affairs.
Now way Putin's regime is as evil as USA's regime. Last time I checked, Putin hadn't invaded and bombed 7 diff countries in just one year. Nor has he invented fake terrorists organizations such as Ali Queda/ISIS/ISLC to do his dirty work for him. Nor has he spent 7 trillion dollars to fight fake "wars of terror".
You are sitll just a shill who cherry picks his facts to suit him.
This is what Putin Adminstration was doing:

We?
You have no ownership in this..
You are not Russian
Fall away from telling Russians how to live..
nosy goat
Localizer its no fun being in a buffer zone like Ukraine is. Their
only chance is telling Europe and Russia to fuck off and that looks
like its not going to happen.
The truth of the matter is that the Ukrainians are unable to govern their own country... it is a total mess and has been for more than 2 decades now. Yankuovitch took it to the extreme though... and that was used by the US. Right now Ukraine is bankrupt and basically in US/EU administration whereby the US is heading the military/security and the EU is funding the rest... so basically it will be the EU that will need to pick up the tab now... the US will just be reaping the benefits, i.e. shale gas (Chevron), GMO (Monsanto) etc. Quite a good deal for that $5 bn "investment" actually...
Tymenshenko far bigger stealings than Yanuk...not even close to her
Wrong
Only chance is to kick the "Red" Mafiya Oligarchs, and Economic Hit Men of EU IMF etc
Russia has subsidized Ukraine, but Ukraine had not leadership, but criminal Oligarchs, never
brought under any law as Putin Administration accomplished for Russia.
15 Years of Putin

Wait a minute, wait a minute, here. I'm willing to listen to your dissenting viewpoint and think about it; but Russia nd China ? I read books about china written by travelers there; china is a disaster. it's literally uncivilized; everyone is completely, 110% brainwashed from the state propaganda machine, there is no dissent; virtually no educated class who even knows what modern world history looks like; and you want to put Russia in the same category? Russians are freer than Americans. That's just the way it is. the evidence is overwhelming. they don't "study" .gov bullshit and call it education, they study real history. China is a complete and perfected communist dictatorship; Russia rejected its communist leadership and operating system; it is in the process of re-birth. Perhaps this has escaped you and you are locked in the past, I don't know; but you're certainly completely wrong.
i agree with what u say about russia, but as for China, they are civilized, they know what modern history looks like, and there is dissent from time to time... not all are brainwashed... I know this because i had a relationship with someone from China who came here to america... geesh don't believe everything u read....
ex-KBS agents, etc?
if you don't know what you are talking about (and you do not)
shut up!
ignorant Lat goat
Regarding the 'incursions' into the geographic spheres of other nations: Putin is a fighter and he's doing what any good fighter would do - probe, jab, dodge, weave and jab again. The metaphor of an overweight, slow, disjointed but Arrogant opponent, who thinks his sheer size is enough to intimidate and/or outright 'win', comes to mind here...
Putin is doing whatever it takes to stay in power thats all.
He;s a patriot. A term that's so discredited and out-moded here that it's difficult to remember what it means. He wants a decent chance for the russian people to exiist and prosper to some extent. this is really very clear.
It was just about a year ago that Forbes magazine named Vladimir Putin the most powerful man on the planet.
But the Negroid community organizer came right back and was recently named Janitor of the year, with special recognition for scrubbing toilet bowls.
Oh God, I just spewed bogies everywhere because of that!
incase any of you want to watch the vid of Putin speaking. from the Saker blog http://vineyardsaker.blogspot.com/2014/10/putin-at-valdai-world-order-ne...
I know it is like rooting for the Cubs if you live South of Roosevelt but I'm kinda liking Vlad more than Barry...does that make me a traitor? Maybe it is just that Vlad actually sounds like he is talking rather than reading....what do I know I don't speak 'politics'.
Kinda? I have a "Putin for president 2016" T'shirt. Barry is a POS puppett. Has no real power or authority -his handlers and the Puppetteers who pull the strings are those that I hate. They are Luciferians. People need to wise up to this.
I do not disagree with what Putin is saying about the past and present but discount his statements predicting future circumstances - due to his lack of action.
Talk and loud noise while backing up and away, all the way back into Russia's borders it seems. And the fact that some world leaders are willing to meet with him and even say positive things afterwards has little weight. Especially when it's from Abu Dhabi. All the big talk from Putin and partnership talk from these leaders has little follow through action.
Remember, the US visits and shakes the hand of leaders and then kills them in a couple years.
World reserve status, it is in question due to the actions of the Fed which reusults in some small reactions by countries in general but movement away is very slow. The actions of Russia to attack the reserve status have been a lot of talk but not very effective. And when the US attacks individual countries who align with Russia to attack the dollar, then Putin will just watch while Brazil or some other country is dismantled.
Putin should read the quote - "The more we retreat the more we are encouraging Russia to behave in a more aggressive way." Only he should replace Russia with US and NATO. And he should have learned that before Iraq2, Libya, Syria and so on.
All the conversation about the dollar losing reserve status is foolish. it's just jounalism in the worst modern sense. this is a long process and nothing significant is happening; only maybe the "end of the beginning"; but any real loss of reserve status is a long way off; and greatly to be feared, by the way; as it is the kind of thing that may provoke the control and power freaks in Washington, DC, and Virginia, to find out if they can survive a nuclear war; not an experiment I want to participate in.
“If you prick us, do we not bleed? if you tickle us, do we not laugh? if you poison us, do we not die? and if you wrong us, shall we not revenge?".
dangerous days to be putin.
maybe he needs to stay put for a while avoid the g20 meet and greet.

That Russian petition against Jewish oligarchs has been generated behind closed doors by Putin. It's purpose is to serve as a warning so that if they misbehave they stand to lose both their wealth and their lives.

the anti russian line is devalued ruble is the sign of sanctions winning.
when politics meets economics.
pssst! cheap rubles is good for russian export like the exgas stuff traded with the usa. the euro is devalued also. using politick rationale the euro is collapsing, too, so sanctions are working there, too?
russia is winning because russia does not need dollars.
"russia is winning because russia does not need dollars."
What do you do if you have reserves and by each day your reserves looses value in currency you hold?
"Russians are rushing to exchange their rubles for dollars and euro"
http://www.forbes.com/sites/paulcoyer/2014/10/23/putins-perfect-storm/
umm... are you a US politician? both you and they have reversed the sign on some basic arithmetic. each day russia's USD reserve assets are worth MORE in ruble terms, as long as USDRUB continues rallying.
so what you do is feel very happy that your reserve assets are worth more rubles, and you sell high... and perhaps buy some gold and oil (conveniently declining in price) with the proceeds as new reserve assets?
what foolish individuals are doing and what the Russian State is doing are two different things.
forbes has sided agenda

Hey Latvian nudnik
My sister living in Russia and wants to rush to exchange her rubles for dollars. But she don't know where to go.
I tole her to try GUM department store; that they must have a dollar/ruble exchange department, but department just like our submarine hiding in Stockholm islands.
Nobody is finding it.
Paul Coyer don't say where. Maybe you know.
You one smart Latvian cookie.
How is it working? Sister gives rubles to man. Man gives sister dollars. Now Sister has dollars and are happy. Now man has rubles with bottom falling out. What does man do with rubles?

He's not trolling just giving a fair comment to your myopia Cock.
Hey, everybody's got to make a living.
Of what country is Soros a citizen; and to what people does he direct his efforts to improve their lives. I can't actually remember any example of him making any effort to improve any ones life; but let's pretend. You want to pretend that Soros and Putin are of the same criminal disposition. that's going to be a hard job. Everyone in russia knows that Putin slapped the shit out of the oligarchs, instead of co-operating with them; and the life of the russian citizen has improved as a result. Yeah, he grabbed some bucks for himself in the process, but no-one begrudges him this. George Washington was a real-estate speculator; I don't see anyone claiming that he was in a class with some notorious international criminal like Rothschild; because he also fought in the front lines to get a better life for his country; for his countrymen. If you don't understand this; then I don't think you're wisdom is very deep.
Putin on the Blitz!

I agree with Putin that American hegemony cannot be allowed to continue
in contemporary society. American hegemony has run a course of abject ruin, war, and poverty all over the world. The time has come for cooler heads to start the discourse that will eventually lead us all back in the direction of shared superordinate goals and collective goal seeking behaviour that is not based on exclusion of the ninety nine per cent at the behest of American classless kleptocratic despot dictators in TBTF, Nail, or Jail. I, for one, think that Putin makes quite a bit of pragmatic sense compared to O'Bummer, Kerry, McCain, Soros, Geithner, Blankfein, Dimon, et cetera. Americans need to understand that the jig is up throughout the world and people are completely broke due to American hegemony on the world markets and their overarching ignorance with regard to real world mathematics proper. I love Americans of many varieties, but I will not stand back and pretend that we must move to de-Americanize the world just as the BRICS has formally stated through legislation now on the books. When the USA wants to trade fairly in the marketplace the marketplace will respond in kind. Irrationality will automatically be supplanted by that which is rational if irrationality is non-adaptive for the markets or market participants. One has expectations of success or failure on entry into markets or deals. American hegemony has quantitatively, and qualitatively changed expectations of success or failure in markets or deals since the American Government de-regulated Investment Banking to do away with Glass-Steagall. In brief, Glass-Steagall was the last straw for the world economy and Greenspan knew it all along when he engineered this race to the bottom of the world.
Bravo!
I don't know which cretin downvoted you but I upvoted you to make it come out neutral. what a crew shows up here sometimes; I swear.
"George Soros Slams Putin, Warns Of "Existential Threat" From Russia"
Guess Putin didn't want to play the international bankster game so now all the crimnals gang up on him. Make Putin the bad guy when he could of done a lot more if he wanted to.
I'm sure I watched Putin live in Sochi on RT.com, but this major speech from the 1st/2nd most powerful leader in the world could not have happened.
Reason: his speech was not carried live on UK TV News channels and there's been no mention of it on UK Sky News and probably little or no mention of it on the BBC.
I must have been dreaming when I thought I watched it.
By contrast, whenever Obola utters a few teleprompted words outside the WH, UK TV News are all over it.

I'm sure I watched that circumcised ape threaten Putin right before those bombs went off in Volgograd before the Sochi Olympics and that coup of Russia's next door neighbor that just happened to take place shortly after the "opening ceremonies"?
Bandar Bris "Bush" Games - ??? ???????

Orwell was an Englishman; he knew what he was dealing with.
The criminals who run America should be put on trial. Bankers and oligarchs included.
->>> People individual rights, freedom, free market, individualism, no oligarchs
->>> Putin oligarch regime, US oligarch regime, China regime, etc.

Are things going to hell in a hand basket ?
Yes .
But is that to your detriment ?
A degree of chaos is preferable to the utter control the Elite wants to enforce .

Lets see Putin just killed 328 people on MH 317 and invaded and annexed Crimea beause his stooge was thrown out by the Ukrainian people. He has taken away all civil rights in Russia and expelled all opponents and yet there are those on ZH find this "cool". Of course without a job or education you never visited Eastern Europe under Russian communism. So go ahead make a douchbag out of yoursefl go to Russia and be sure to tear up our USA passort.
Theeseer
You are about to get bombed with red arrows, the majority have neer been out of their
neighbourhood let alone have a passport. Start pissing into the wind mate.
Let's see, seven countries invaded in the last dozen years
Hundreds of thousands brown people killed.
The USA has been the instigator of millions of deaths
Since nineteen forty five
Who is the bully?
How many deaths per tankful of gas do you think you get?
Yeah, sure. And he stopped the rain in California.
You are crazy. congratulations. a completely screw-loose wing nut. Why the fuck would Putin shoot down an airliner ? just to make himself unpopular.? Can;'t you think at all ?
On what date?
Lets see Putin just killed 328 people on MH 317
i would suggest you are a lover of zionism a mongoloid
or both.
i think you will find a romaianian mig 29 or an su25 piloted by a polish jewish person did the shoot down.
good look with your satanick beliefs blessed special boy
"Communism" is not Russian
Soviet was never a Russian construct
From 1917 thru Stalin was never Russians in control.
Even Krushchev, Breznev were Ukrainian
Gorby half Ukrianian
You know nothing about this subject
Soviet came from New York City from dual citizens. People like the oligarchs that Putin threw out and who are still entrenched in the Ukriane, USA, EUrope and globally. People like Soros.
Strelkov knows as he is a White Russian and Christian.
So Volkodav - serious question.
Was Yeltsin and buffon and traitor or was he a Russian patriot by installing Putin as leader of Russia.
I am starting to think he was a patriot. Did Yeltsin get the last laugh on the oligarchs?
LOL
Kiev and/or one of the Jewish oligarchs sho down the plane. And massacred people in Odessa. And have been burying people in mass graves.
Yanuk was ejected by US-backed and funded elitists, backed up with ultra nationalist and neo-nazi thugs. Crimea was autonomous, mostly ethnically Russian, and voted to RE-join Russia, as is their right under the UN Dec. of Universal Rights {in fairness, Chechnya should have this right as well - if they *vote* for it}.
Stop being such a whiney bitch because ZH is not parroting the over-the-top, warmongering yellow journalism of an american press that is far less free than you probably think it is.
where's da proof...da actual proff...
"without firing a shot".
Awesome.
Can't wait to see how that works out lol.
Translation:
Patience wearing thin, "gloves coming off"...
The tragedy is that if either France, Germany, Italy or Spain were to step forward with a very public endorsement of Russia and that the Kiev government was "patently" an Anglo-American/Israeli creation all this shit would be stopped dead in it's track!
That and tendering their resignation from "Union"!
Every bulleted Putin-point was right on the mark. So suck on that, Cohen.
I'd rather that Cohen sucked on a 7.62X54R coming his way; but I'll settle for what I can get.
I think Putin has possibly had more plastic surgery than John Kerry.
wish he didn't do so much botox...
think he would look better natural
aging can be beautiful
Well, he is pissed off that his oil muskateer friend is arsassinated. He is telling Obama 'You have crossed the red line'.
PUTIN 2016!!!
Because fuck the Democrats, and fuck the Republicans - that's why.
So fuck the American communists/fascists for Russian communists/fascists?
