The Ukraine Who Cried Wolf: Kiev Reports 32 Russian Tanks Cross Border, Market Completely Ignores
Forget Baghdad Bob. Meet Luhansk Lysenko, the spokesman of the Ukraine military, and the guy who every single day floods whatever wires still care with the daily report of fighting, military invasions, and Russian troops entering the country, aka the proverbial boy who cried wolf.
There was a time when the merest hint of Russia military activity at the Ukraine border would do the unthinkable: challenged central planners and send stocks lower. Who can forget the market drubbing when the Russian humanitarian convoy was going to enter east Ukraine and allegedly carry a DIY army?
Well, those days are long gone. Because with Ukraine repeating day after day after day, how many Russian soliders have entered the country, how many artilery shells have landed, and how Putin is just salivating to invade the economically devastated country, everyone completely tuned out.
Case in point, yet another report earlier today from Kiev, according to which "a column of 32 tanks, 16 howitzer artillery systems and trucks carrying ammunition and fighters has crossed into eastern Ukraine from Russia."
"The deployment continues of military equipment and Russian mercenaries to the front lines," spokesman Andriy Lysenko said in a televised briefing referring to Thursday's cross-border incursion.
The report of a new Russian movement of armor across the border follows a charge on Thursday by pro-Russian rebels in eastern Ukraine that Kiev government forces had launched a new offensive - which Kiev immediately denied.
Sporadic violence has continued since a Sept. 5 truce in a conflict that has cost over 4,000 lives. But the ceasefire has looked particularly fragile this week, with separatists and the central government accusing each other of violations after separatist leaders held elections in self-proclaimed 'people's republics' last Sunday.
"Supplies of military equipment and enemy fighters from the Russian Federation are continuing," Lysenko said. He added that five Ukrainian soldiers had been killed and 16 wounded in the past 24 hours despite the ceasefire.
Market reaction: absolutely none.
Ironically, following half a year of false alarms and crying wolf, if Putin did want to invade Ukraine, he could do so in hours. But why bother, when he can get paid by US and European taxpayers for natural gas deliveries to the nation that appears set to mutiny against the US puppet government within months if not weeks?

Well it is friday you know. LOL.
We have 50K dead on the Mexican border.....we've got our own problems.
No......we don't plan on doing anything about it.
More news I didn’t hear on the evening news; riots in Brussels!
http://rt.com/news/202867-protest-brussels-clashes-cannon/
Perhaps our own Enraged Waffle will file an eye-witness report ?
Domokun is not a waffle, although he'd eat one if he saw it! :>D
And minutes later, news come out that the 32 tanks retreated back out of ukraine and the futures soar two percent...fuckers
Nuland-Kagan wants them to put a division of armor on the border, that they can use to invade then retreat, invade then retreat, as needed by the S&P.
These Puppet twats just murdered some kids playing football in Donetsk. Anything in the main news? Fuck all probably
No market reaction because it's all bullshit.
Is his undershirt part of the official military uniform?
Good eye...yes it is. The dude does sport that undershirt every time he gets coverage :)
My favorite holiday is August 2nd in that part of the world

I'm glad after looking at your photo collection to see that you, like every other American, suck on Geography and get Ukraine and Russia mixed up (or think they are the same). The striped shirt is a airborne sorta thing.
The reason why this man wearing this shirt is because in past Russian and Ukrainian forces were called Soviet...( closes eyes to reminisce on good old days for a few seconds)...where was I? Oh yes...Now uniforms are remnants of that era...is has not been changed. But since you dare to challenge my authori-tye, tovarisch...I will take you on little journey. Here is breakdown of how undershirts are associated with individual branch of miltary:
Dark blue Sea is for Navy
Light Blue Sky is for Airborne Troops (VDV seen on the pictures I sent) and GRU Speznas ( real badasses)
Black Briny Deep is for Submarine Sailors
Forest green is for the boarder guards.
Red is for OMON and other Units of the Ministerstvo Vnutrennih Del ( MVD)
never heard that tree fall, also orders are out to stop reports on ebola, can't get wee wee'd up about stuff if MSM has a gag ball in it's mouth. seems news blackouts work.
There is no reaction because it is better than expected. There could have been 33 tanks crossing from Russia.
There is no reaction because there is no MARKET.
There's a MARK-IT.
Who in his/her right mind will invade a failed state?
Well, America obviously. With a coalition of the willing (willing to loot rebuilding contracts).
We went in......got the gold.....and got the hell out.
We're done!
'Mission Accomplished"
I meant person with right mind not greedy half-crazed dumbfucks.
For that downwoter I talked about the elites.
Market bored with Ukraine.
Nobody wants Ukraine.
It was only used by US to try and start a war, that failed so US abandon them as per usual.
Soros pissed wants war, talks shit non stop.
Nobody except George Soros and the Zionists.
And even they are distracted and bored.
Yawn-kraine
Ukraine: The New Khazaria. "Khazaria for Khazarians."
Now that the charade called midterm elections is over in the land of the free, it is time to accelerate all our wars. Bombings in Syria/Iraq will intenisfy and Ukraine will heat up again. Demonization of Putin will intensify. As the European economy sinks deeper into depression, war will divert the populace.
That didn’t take long;

Its good to see we are stacking the deck properly....Change you can believe in!

[DRock] Nah nobody's buying it.
[LordR] Alright, alright. Back with the Ukraine fiasco.
These dicks just started attacking the Eastern half again, after the US elections, and they get pissed about Russian supplies going to the defenders. Maybe they should stop murdering their neighbors.

If they keep this Washington nonsense up, The Russians really are going to end the conflict.
Waiting for the word "quagmire" to come back into play. But the Russians do need to end this, complete with show trials for any members of Academi caught in the mop up.
Oh nos. That might inflame the Ukrainian Nationalism.
Right, and you believe that the Tooth-fairy is real and that she personally services Putin, because RT said so...
Look, neither side is telling the truth. That's the only fact. Making accusatory statements based on what TeeVee reports, against one side or the other, is frivolous commentary to say the least. My sons godfather is a colonel in the Ukrainian Police and was sent to the Donbas region at the start of this crappy war. We talk to him every few days by phone and skype and he paints a completely different picture.
One thing is for sure a fact: Propaganda is rampant on both sides.
Down arrows?
Oh, I get it!!! You are physically there, on the front lines, reading this blog through your cell phone browser at lightening speed connection through Kyivstar/MTS/Life cell service... REAL fact finders... bravo!
Bad Roman, get with the program, here at zh putin is a GOD!.

Obviously this is all part of putins cunning plan........
They forgot WW3 is already priced in, and actually better than expected.

If you're as anti-Russian as Senator "Lindsay" Graham is, one can only hope that the next casus belli that Israel launches inside the U.S. is more successful than the last one he announced?...
If they pin "the next 9/11" on Russia to get the war effort in Eastern Europe on track, they better be prepared to do better than what we've witnessed with MH-17!
By the way! How is that the people of South Carolina retained the services of a rabid Zionist to serve another term that wanted to blow up his own State in order to start a war with Syria???...

Okay...let's try this: Kim Kardashian crosses Ukraine border for stealth liposuction butt surgery.
Now there you might have something Ukraine can actually use.
You think it's not important?
What market? This is just a video game.
I predicted that democrats would dump Obama. It happened.
Now I predict that democrats will remove Obama from power, unless foreign policy changes.
US is losing control of world commodities.
I predict Republicans and Hillary Democrats (neocons) to remove Obama from power, assuming foreign policy does not change
I've had a similar line of thought. Except I'm wondering if a move like that will matter at all, now that the mid-terms are done. The only thing Obama has left to do is line things up to keep the White House in Democratic hands. That means doing all the dirty prep work for Hilary and the neo-cons.
I expect Obama to sign all neo-con inspired bills from Congress, while wringing his hands and saying it's all the evil Republicans' fault when such policies are horribly unpopular. Americans prefer Democratic non-neo-con policies, but seem to hate the non-neocon Democrats personally.
If Obama does all the table-setting, Hilary and the neo-cons can run against Obama in 2016, and make him a bazillionaire on the way out the door.
I expect to see Obama signing off on removing every single thing Finance finds inconvenient about ObamaCare, turning the schools over to corporate interests, transferring more corporate debt on to the public balance sheet, moar subsidies for petrochemicals, moar woar and crocodile-tears patriotic schmaltz,and everything else that facilitates Stage 2 separation between the Elites and everyone else. Every last remaining pot of money in individual or "public" hands to go over to corporate control, like retirement accounts, K-12 funding, public infrastructure, etc.
Then Hilary can come in on 1/20/17 and say she has no choice but to do whatever her shadowy overlords have in mind for her. Hell, I saw her in person a few months ago. She's even starting to look like Margaret Thatcher, but without the charm or sanity.
Oh, and why would foreign policy change? It's been controlled by Kissinger and Brzezinski for 50 years, with a dash of Wolfowitz added. Look at the bios of all these clowns; Nuland, Psaki, and the rest. It's like they're being stamped out of a machine under some Ivy league campus. Utterly unscrupulous female sociopaths of Eastern European ethnicity and a certain religious family tradition.
I have the feeling that this is being ignored simply because it is another exaggeration by the Kiev Ukrainians. It is no small feat to move 32 tanks and 16 howitzers. There must be at least 5 support vehicles for each tank or howitzer. So, in all something like 250 vehicles must have crossed into Ukraine. Secondly there has to be an appropriate amount of armored infantry accompanying a force of this size. So add another 100 vehicles to support an infantry battalion.
That is not to deny that a force of this size could not have entered Ukraine over a period of several days and from several points of entry. This is a tried and true process for infiltration. The Red Chinese infiltrated Korea with some 200,000 men over several weeks in the fall of 1950 and our Air Force never noticed. The North Vietnamese did this into South Vietnam for nearly a decade before we became aware of how significant their presence was. (The first battles fought by U.S Army and Marines in South Vietnam in 1965 were against fully equipped and trained North Vietnamese regiments, not the Viet Cong, in battles reminiscent of the fighting against the Japanese in WW II.)
I think that the market has adjusted to the idea that Ukraine will go on and on; but that -globally- business will be unaffected. Besides, the Korean War, the Vietnam War, and -in fact- the entire Cold War was good for business. So is this eternal war against Islam.
The unanimity of the Western media on Ukraine and the memory repression required to swallow it should make any intelligent reader suspicious. One moment MH17 is the Biggest Story Ever, the next moment there is no mention of it at all. The postponement of the Ukraine-EU agreement was unthinkable right up to the moment when it suddenly happened. NATO gets its intelligence from commercial services. An election in which parties that had got 40% of the vote the last time around were effectively banned is a triumph of democracy. The best way to end the rule of corrupt oligarchs is to pick one as president. And so on.
Therefore, there must be some other reason. Here are some theories to explain what’s going on.
http://russia-insider.com/en/ukraine/2014/11/04/02-00-57pm/dozen_theorie...
Curious that among the theories proposed in that article, no mention of the theory that Ukraine was put into play to make the dual citizen chosenite-Ukrainian oligarchs richer, or the other theory that Ukraine is being set up as a second homeland for when the khazars who have correctly concluded that Israel will eventually get overwhelmed by Palestinian demographics and a low Jewish birthrate.
Oh well, as Voltaire said about who rules over you and who you can criticise...
merkel: "nine nine nine!"
"it was nine tanks, not 32."
I see what you did there and it was a really clever play on words.
Christine Lagarde counted 7.
We double checked with her.....it was 7.
You yanks are always down on poor neville chamberlain, at the time the British were not up for another world war, he got an agreement which the otherside broke, we looked like we would lose any conflict at the time of the agreement. You bloody americans always go on about poor neville even though you didnt turn up for another 2 years. Apologies if you are not american by the way.
A little retinking of that period in history shows Chamberlain to be a very decent chap, one who pulled off a pretty good piece of negotiation. There is a peculiar group who spins WW2 history in a certain way, and we all go along because we don't study the facts out for ourselves.
Nearly four years, and you're right.
First thing Neville did after Munich was rapidly ramp up defence spending, otherwise Hitler
would have been in London in a month.
He bought much needed time by sacrificing Czechoslovakia.
He should lionized instead of mocked.
Do his private papers of the time show this? I've always thought he was a dumbass. I'd be happy to know that only the people who swallowed his line were.
The increase in the defence budgets is public record, those radar stations didn't pop up overnight
on the coast.Defence spending went up 300% in 1938/9 April to March, the UK govt spending
year.
Even dummies have a backup plan. I'd like to see that he knew war was inevitable and was willfully decieving the enemy to buy time. Otherwise, it still looks like he was hoping he could reason with the barbarians at the gates and got a lot of people killed in the process.
Why should we? Britain, France et all were the ones with war treaties.Not the u.s.
I remember reading where Britain did not treat us nicely in the late 1700's - early 1800's.
When I see in MSM something containing "Kiev says", I usually stop reading there.
Right, just who is this Kiev guy, some sort of chicken?
hum ...
even if this was true and even if russia was really invading Ukraine, what would western countries do ?
Probably nothing more than the usual "consequences" talk ...
Somebody tell this hallucinating cokehead that if a fucking waterpistol crossed the Russian border we'd all be hearing about it on CNN accompanied by grey and green satellite images of blobs with arrows identifying it as an ICBM.
Elections over, time to prepare the gag reflex for more lies, bombings and inventive euphemisms for "Hey we just blew the legs off a little girl" (We cleaned a female adolescent? We sanitized her pins?) from the MIC and its minions.
The Ukie military was attacking over pretty much the full front yesterday, but not today, so it was probably probing the weaknesses and strengths of the Novorussian forces.
http://militarymaps.info/ is in Russian but constantly updates the military situation there.
There were Russian units shown in Donetsk and Luhansk a week or so ago. The consensus is that the Ukies are about to launch a major offensive. The new Defense Minister was formally the one in charge of the National Guard (known to be filled with the low life neo-nazis that the oligarch funded battalions didn't want) and apparently a mean piece of crap, has a point to make so I'm sure when it is launched it will be big.
It is probably a good thing for Putin that Lie-senko never read (or maybe understood) the fable because the "bear" will come this time and nobody will hear the screams.
Russian units in Donetsk and Luhansk?
As time goes by Putin continues to rack up more points in the Ukraine as the conflict drags on. Things may have quieted down and the eyes of the world have moved to more pressing issues, but Putin is playing the long game by grinding away at the resolve of both bankrupt Kiev and the EU. A recently signed deal for gas supplies to Ukraine only highlights the fact the devil of any agreement is in the details.
The Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said any resumed supplies could be halted again on Jan. 1 if Ukraine doesn’t pay $3.1 billion in debt prepay for future deliveries.
It appears this deal is tenuous and the guarantees of it being fulfilled are weak. Don't hold your breath for Putin to back-off or back-down, he has put down his marker and is now playing both Obama and Kerry for fools in a contest that may cost Russia little. If Putin doesn't get his way next week he will next month or next year at the latest. The article below delves into why this conflict won't be over until Putin says its over.

Guffaw!!
What is with the Swedes and the Finns lately? Have they gone full zio? Russia is not bothering them. The Swedes should use their military to sweep out Islamic Malmo. the normally sensible Finns are acting like even bigger idiots wanting to join ZATO.
Putin knows grabbing land and building empires is folly. She the Zio-Cons were not smarter.
Just remember Mitch, John and "Lindsay" that Odessa lives ...
Think about it!
Got the story backwards. The wolf is real. It's the townspeople who are imagining things.
The manipulators have other priorities, thus making the market happy dance.
A sad tune coming out of Ukraine is not on the current playlist.
Teaching the U.S. military how to kill less with less for more than 60 years!...
Or another way of putting it in Hebrew... How to get more bang for your buck!
Aren't false flags just wonderful in getting us to do things we wouldn't normally do?!!!
Obama gives a nod to Putins plans with Russia

Volkodav, I also thought it strange, but they aren't shown there anymore.
An update, There are no longer any Russian units shown anywhere except way out of the conflict zone, ie Moscow. I guess the Kremlin didn't like the publicity.
Da No one Donetsk know about it.
Only regional fighters, and maybe 5 % foreign volunteers are defense.
Alexander Vladimirovich Zakharchenko for American President 2016.
The guy rocks. He should be PM of Ukraine - he might make it a tolerable country.
zzzzzz
Parties to a conflict are never to be believed. They have a conflict of interest with regard to the truth.
So I am less interested in what they say than the evidence they produce. I am less interested in what they say than in why they say it.
Even a pathological liar develops patterns to his lies. If you learn the inputs you can predict the lies and their timing.
won't stop in Ukraine, not a false flag
perhaps when they see US is all bluff, dollar goes down
hope of relying on US to actually defend your country will soon be understood
Bob was boyscout compared to Kyiv command.
Baghdad Bob
Jen Psaki
Hey, I could respect Baghdad Bob as a professional doing his job in a catastrophic situation. Psaki doesn't have any of those defenses.
first of all, whats "chicago" rahm doing organizing in ukraine?
people forget, the market, is the BIS, FED., ECB, BOJ, and another dozen cb's, they know whats happening, they make it happen, their just doing their usual, churning a few billion dollars more of the 99%, and enriching themselves.
