Putin Arrives At G-20 Meeting Escorted By 4 Warships; Sent Clear 'Message' By World Leaders
Having been 'guest-of-honor' at the APEC Summit the previous week, it appears Russian President Vladimir Putin is getting the 'Obama-at-APEC' treatment at the G-20 meeting in Brisbane. Following his 'odd' shaped convoy of protection last week, The Independent reports Putin chose a different type of entourage this week as he headed to meet the world's leaders. Putin has stationed four warships close to Australian waters as he arrived in Australia. Having drawn ridicule from no lesser wit than Britain's David Cameron who sarcastically bleeted, "I didn't feel it necessary to bring a warship myself to keep myself safe at this G20, and I’m sure that Putin won’t be in any danger," when it came time for the team photo, it was clear what 'message' was being sent...
Australia says it is monitoring four Russian naval vessels that are approaching its waters to the north of the country.
The Australian Defence Force said two frigates and a surveillance aircraft had been sent to track the warships.
In a statement, it said the Russian vessels were heading towards Australia but remained in international waters.
Analysts say it is a show of force by Russian President Vladimir Putin ahead of the G20 summit in Brisbane.
"The movement of these vessels is entirely consistent with provisions under international law for military vessels to exercise freedom of navigation in international waters," the ADF statement read.
The ADF said Russian naval vessels have previously been deployed in conjunction with major international summits, including the Apec summit in Singapore in 2009.
"A warship from Russia's Pacific fleet also accompanied former Russian president Medvedev's visit to San Francisco in 2010," the statement added.
And then there's David Cameron's quip:
“I didn’t feel it necessary to bring a warship myself to keep myself safe at this G20, and I’m sure that Putin won’t be in any danger,” he said last night.
And a clear message sent via the team photo:
This week's G-20 Meeting... Obama front-and-center between China's Xi and Brazil's Rousseff, just in front of Britain's Cameron with Putin almost out of shot
Has the world's diplomatic stability really deteriorated to 8-year-old playground antics? (or has it in fact always been there) Stand next to me! No, stand next to me!

And finally, there's this... Spot the difference

"I use 4 warships to catch moose and squirrel"
What a prescient statement of the intelligence of our "Leaders'. Why can not one of them think independently based upon the true facts. If we at ZH know the truth then surely these "Folks" with full National "Intelligence" services surely know what is really going on. Strategically, they should be looking East.

There's a bit of history to Koala's pissing on a politician:
On the left is John Joseph Brown AO (born 19 December 1931) a retired Australian politician. In the 1980’s he was the Minister for Tourism in the Federal Government. He was responsible for the campaign that some Americans may remember and introduced you to the archetypical Ozzie Paul Hogan aka Crocodile Dundee: "Put another shrimp on the barbie!"
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shrimp_on_the_barbie
And then there is the koala. The koala is acting innocent and fingers the “travel Industry” for the state of Brown’s trousers.
This picks up on a quote or two from Mr Brown about a year earlier when in a photo shoot to promote himself and Australian Tourism he was scratched and peed on by a koala he was cuddling for the cameras:
Koalas are “ flea-ridden, piddling, stinking, scratching, rotten little things”.
It was not forgotten!

Incipient minds in the so-called Western world fail to understand Russia's strategic priorities. The complete annexation of the Ukrainian landmass is next logical step for Putin and most Ukrainians will be relieved the Russian forces put finally the needed order in that failed state.
I don't trust Russian cab drivers
ok, want me to be your bad boy, i play along, with a few skewers for the "scampi"...
After all, my approval rating is north of 90 !
Actually, I wanted to meet Paul Ho....
Cameron talks a good one while his LBMA paper gold rig is exploding.
Putin knows bullion beats paper - and that Cameron and his City of London bankers are desperate so Putin brought a little insurance policy.
Cameron is the one who's brought a knife to a gunfight at the LBMA.
All Camreon has left is jib jab chatter chatter.

Koala enduring prostate exam
That koala looks like most Americans: holding on for dear life and staring blankly into the future.
I am Chumbawamba.
Koalas sleep 22 hours per day.
How fitting.

Maybe Putin chose to stand apart from the liars, thieves and faggets. Standing in the middle of that bunch he risks having his wallet stolen or being slipped a finger.
Koala can't stand the smell.
Koalas are very shy.
+1 - Am I correct in assuming that the trailing "G", for guided missile was omitted on purpose
The Kola knows a flaming homo when it sees one.
The reason he wants to get away is that he doesn't want to be mistaken for "The Wookie".
On closer inspection, it seems the thing Obola is holding is The Wookie.
I saw that pic and my immediate thought was how dare they lampoon Michelle that way. /s
I have seen flaming homos. obozo is no flaming homo. Very closeted. Maybe after 2016 and he is writing book he will come outs? Duh moment if he does.
Listen.
"The King of world leaders is not present in either pic... Netenyahu"

You're a douche, but best comment ever!

That's a beauty of a link. I liked the part about wearing forks in your hair and urinating on yourself to deter the drop bears from attacking. Trying to picture the forks in the hair; having a little trouble with that one.
Russian missles make navies obsolete anyway.
No British warship wanted to accompany Cameron.
"British sailors were overheard making jokes about loading Cameron into a torpedo tube before ejecting the contents into the ocean."
Also: Note the Chinese Premier being front and center in both pictures. China- playing both sides and laughing its way to the bank.
What British navy?
BTW. Question. What the fuck do these people do for days on end at these fucking summits?
Seriously.
It's a circle jerk of world politicians on an internation stage mugging for the camera and any photo ops they can accumulate during their stay. They fly
back to their respective government seats and tell their populations how they all have matters well in hand. The Christmas season begins and everyone watches Trading Places and A Christmas Carol. Rinse and repeat
next year if there is a next year.

What did you expect? Who would listen to their BS, beside someone just like them?
Obama has more in common with Putin than he has with 99.99 of Americans.
"Jane, you ignorant slut" - Dan Akroyd
The correct answer is - "Putin has more in common with 99.99 of sentient Americans than does Obama".
/give or take a billion rubles
Astounding!
You’re creating your own propaganda.
You statement makes no sense… In many levels, because US way of life doesn’t resemble anything remotely closely with that philosophy.
Just look the way you talk, and care for minorities.
Russia? If you think Italians are racist, then go deal with Russians.
Wrong.
Jews are the biggest racists the world has ever seen.
Britain will have a slightly bigger navy soon - when the new aircraft carriers http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Queen_Elizabeth-class_aircraft_carrier are commissioned. Unfortunately they are supposed to use the STOVL F35B, so I expect they will be waiting quite some time (maybe forever?) before they actually have any aircraft to carry. Maybe the F35 was so-designated because it will be finally cleared for operational readiness in 2035 ?
The Brits should just put their Harriers back into production to equip their carriers.
But they don't want to commit Harrier - Carrier.
Argentinians know how to deal with the British Navy, they sent me to bag a lot of technology, those mizéria made Exocet in the Falklands.
Argentina lost a junkyard and many lives.
Maybe with better logistics history would have been different.
hehe.
Ah yes, the British aircraft carriers.
In my work, I meet a few people. One day, at Portsmouth Naval Base, I met a chap, ex RN oficer. who had been on the main committee for the new QE-class carriers. I asked him about the whole ski ramp decision, made after the ships had already been designed for cat & trap, and the first one part built, because of Treasury interference. After saying some very unkind things about the Treasury, the arsewits at the MoD, and F35B's, he commented that there would now be two very large rooms just under the deck in which Jolly Jack Tar would store large amounts of beer. He also said that it was perfectly stupid to build through-deck carriers so you could mount long range missions to maintain the necessary size of defence screen (rather than just relying on the accompanying destroyers), and so you could launch and land not only fighters but also surveillance and refuelling aircraft (which need cat & trap, and can't use ramps), just to balls it all up to save a measly £2bn and render your capital ship and whatever multi-gazillion pound battlegroup you put to sea virtually defenceless, because the strike aircraft have no time over target/in combat because of their pathetic range, but the Treasury and MoD absolutely positively would not listen to him or anyone from the Navy. The same jackasses who are building 1/2 dozen Type 45's only, and now have 1 (yes, 1) frigate at any one time to patrol UK coastal waters which is why it took 24 hours to steam from Portsmouth to intercept a Russian destroyer in inland wates (can't remember if it was Solway or Firth of Forth) recently. The Russkis had the chutzpah/good grace to wait around to be intercepted and probably don't know whether to laugh themselves hoarse or feel sorry for the RN, betrayed by it's own government.
Something to remember when considering Cameron's effort at humour. The treasonous twat.
BTW. Question. What the fuck do these people do for days on end at these fucking summits?
Silly Knucks! They talk about important leader-stuff... like... how to screw the citizenry for more tax, while avoiding the taxes themselves; which smaller, non-nuclear countries to blackmail next; how to bend over even better for their own country's equivalent of AIPAC; that kind of thing.
....including changing the definition of depositor to investor and determining where they fit in the recapitalization scheme.
Hint, it is right after bondholders.
That must be why the IMF's Christine "Leatherface" Lagarde is in the official picture.
Third row, third from left to right...
After McCain's piece of wisdom [sarc] that "Russia is a giant gas station masquerading as a country", New York Tmes seems to think that China should be the owner of most of it.
NYT: Why China Will Reclaim Siberia
Divide and Conquer
Will this propaganda work as well as it did leading to WW-2?
I think it has a chance. Not sure what will trigger China in doing it.
The Reason Siberia is people poor is because its gets to -40F in the winter and the short humid summers are full of flies. There is permafrost and living there is only for the most hardy. That ecosystem cant handle millions more peoples. This nut job at NY Times is obviously a member of the J-mafia, Frank Jacobs, and they have no intention of giving away a resource rich area to China if they can take over Russia again. Its more smoke and mirrors.
The Russian media should do a map of China taking over Australia and New Zealand and Papua New Guinea. That is more likely since the Chinese are already buying there lol
I'm curious to know what Putin said literally to the Australian Prime Minister ....
As for ships, Socha Faal warned:
http://www.whatdoesitmean.com/index1817.htm
There is no conspiracy theory when you see four Russian ships armed to the teeth is heading for Australia.
hehe.
Australia and New Zealand and Papua New Guinea.
Did NOT think of that..., but sound exotic places.
Also: Note the Chinese Premier being front and center in both pictures. China- playing both sides and laughing its way to the bank.
Ding Ding Ding! THERE IS YOUR REAL GUEST OF HONOR...
Maybe they're stuck in Cardiff Bay. Funny that Cameron is making comments after bringing warships to the NATO summit where he wasn't meeting with his enemies. What a putz.
plus the brits are too fucken broke to be sending warships halfway around the world the lying fuckhead that he is
Remember what Churghill, the "greatest" stateman that Great Britain ever produced said about Naval Tradition.....‘Monstrous. Nothing but rum, sodomy, prayers and the lash.’
Can you blame Vlad? He must be No.1 on the CIA's assasination list.
Holy fuck! I never realized how big their ears get, said the Koala.
I don't blame him. This world is fucked.
Boy, Vlad got dissed big time. It's all Circus.
I think Tyler got it wrong the guest of honor usually stands next to the president of the host country...if we look closer we see dont see Obama, but a very interesting Asian fellow that I have seen a couple of times before....I think he might be from China...I wonder what that might mean?
Really funny, isn't it. Both Canada and Australia were in China for the APEC meetings. My guess is that they acted much differently there. Piss ants.
The real guest of honour is a stand out.
I think Putin just brought the ships along for a fishing trip off the Great Barrier Reef when the meeting is done. He will probably catch a world record marlin while wearing no shirt.
Meanwhile, Obama will go to a petting zoo and talk about endangered ground squirrels.
You spelled "deranged" ground squirrels wrong, silly.
Koala face expression, potus left hand position and evil grin are all suggesting that something deeply disturbing is going on here... 8-/
Now that you point it out....
Unsettling. Deeply unsettling.
so's the thought that even I cannot bring myself to write it here....
Can anyone tell if it's a male or female kaoala? Not that there's anything wrong with that....
Hey Prez (says the Koala) not so hard on the ole prostate, its a massage, not a nutcracker !!!
Yeah but Koalas don't pay taxes right? It can't be what you are thinking.
Only one of those two guys at the bottom feel comfortable touching pussy.
The UK's Telegraph, distinguished only for its propaganda, spreads false rumors about Putin at G20. Of course, Time magazine and UK's Daily Mail also reported this fake story to portray Putin as a pussy:
Vladimir Putin to leave G20 early after 'tense' meeting with David CameronVladimir Putin is set to leave the G20 summit early after a tense meeting with David Cameron over Moscow's actions in Ukraine.
The Russian president is reportedly planning to leave the summit early on Sunday and miss its official lunch in response to repeated criticism from western leaders.
The move comes after Tony Abbott, the Australian Prime Minister, threatened to "shirt front" Mr Putin - a form of physical confrontation. Stephen Harper, the Canadian Prime Minister, told Mr Putin: "I guess I'll shake your hand, but I'll only have one thing to say to you - get out of the Ukraine."
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/vladimir-putin/11232995/Vladim...
Russia denies reports Vladimir Putin is leaving G20 summit earlyhttp://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/nov/16/russia-denies-vladimir-puti...
Yes. Vlad did have a "tense" meeting with David when David began reciting a number of his early school boy memories surrounding buggery, pedophilia and cross-dressing. You wonder why he'd be skived out want to skedaddle?
Holy shit that is funny....
Don't forget the snorting of Colombian marching powder(!)
I looked up what shirt fronting is. In Australian rules football, it is a manly foul. In politics, it is everybody holding Koalas.
"Vladimir Putin to leave G20 early after 'tense' meeting with David Cameron"
Hilarious. Too funny.
Cameron is an empty suit.
Harper is a sort of Canadian Obama; an embarrassment to all intelligent citizens and a national financial disaster. One doesn't get out of "The Ukraine"; one gets out of "Ukraine"; for the same reason that one doesn't speak of "the hoi poloi"
Putin left the meeting early because he did not like the vegetarian.
This business of eating bush is something of deer or rabbit, Putin is a predator in the best sense of the word.
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk!
It'd be a great leak by the person who plans the standing arrangements and the logic behind it.
On the serious side, I cannot fathom Putin's game with all the air challenges, sea challenges, etc. He is KGB and he is no fool. As KGB he probably reads his opposites very well and he certainly must have the latest intelligence on Allied/NATO capabilities.
I do not pretend to know who is doing what in the Ukraine except for the fact that there is no way Russia is uninvolved. I just wonder if he is playing a bigger game than that. If I were Obama and Europe I would be cautious and think more like a master chess player.
Allied/NATO capabilities were displayed enough in Kosovo, Afhanistan, Iraq, Lybia and Syria: they are great when confronted with someone poorly armed, poorly organized, technically inferior, vastly weaker in every sense, in one word: defenseless. Russia is none of it. Putin knows it. What is scary is that western politicians don't seam to know it. Or play the worst poker face ever.
My guess would be that the message Putin's sending is that if you cause trouble in our backyard, we can do the same. Or stated differently, don't think you will escape harm if you push too far, even though you are distant geographically.
True. Also, what are the stakes/motives? Putin motive is protecting Russian borders and securing territories that were actually Russian for the biggest part of the last millennium and populated with mostly Russian people. Western motive is installing yet another puppet government that can enable its plutocrats to rip nations natural resources while simultaneously expanding products/credit market, converting population to debt slaves unopposed.
Now, think that, even in the case of "just" conventional arms conflict, number of casualties per day would probably surpass what it was in Iraq + Afhanistan in total. What do you think, whose motives would warrant such sacrifice more?
In theory they were never Russian. They were independents in a communist union, i.e., USSR, cough, cough.
While there are some good posts in response to my comments the thing I woiuld worry about if I were Putin is Obama's unpredictability. Obama is a moron and subject to irrational forces like his daily poll numbers. He could easily miscalculate and actually strike Russia. Realistically, it would be limited and just to send a message. Russia would then be granted the next and bigger move.
The best theory I read is that he is sending a message of potential costs of direct intervention as well as playing tohis own press and populace.
Don't forget that he has to play to his home constituency as well. He can't just let all the insults and weapons brought up to his borders pass without any response, so he does the equivalent of giving them the finger, just to show he's not cowed.
He's playing a long game, for sure, but he also has his domestic image to consider. That's why you can find so many pictures and videos of him doing manly sports, strolling among the people, etc.
I would guess that they type of stuff being reported about Russia (flights too clost to US etc) probably happen all the time by both sides. They're only being reported now to get the sleeple up in arms. "Those damn Russians flyin to close to ma borders, lets get 'em"
Russia has no reciprocal medical care agreement with Austrialia (the remnants of what "used" to be "The UK" have). So, in case of a medical incident or emergency, the Russian President may reasonably expect Russian levels of medical care to be available, and nearby, hence "Russian territory" in the shape of those ships.
Incidentally just one of those cruisers carries sufficient firepower (short, medium and long range) to put a very serious dent in the Aussie "Navy" - along with the US Marine base in Darwin. So, as well as the above perfectly legitimate reasons, maybe there's also a hint of "don't mess with us" there??
Was golfing with a Navy captain and the topic of Britian's navy came up. He looked at us like we were crazy even thinking they had a navy left. Well, OK. In all fairness. Perhaps a few garbage scow tenders.
http://www.thespoof.com/spoof-news/us/99102/uss-cluster-f-k-navy-honors-...
If I were Vlad and had a medical emergency, I'd sooner be treated on a Russian ship than in an Austrailian hospital, where they'd have perfect cover for a bump-off.
He's the only one of those scumbags who even pretends to act in the interests of his own people.
Which is why this "Alinsky" tactic of isolation and ridicule will have no effect...except to piss off the Russians and strengthen Putin's popularity.
Speaking of tactics, why are there thirty-three flags behind the group photo of a G-20 meeting?
Akin to the 57 states in Obama's America. What do they know they aren't telling us?
33 people too. An illuminati master number, supposedly. No idea what it means in their fucked up world, but I'm seeing that number in too many events lately for it to be simply coincidence.
Obama's running dogs, Cameron and Abbott, yelp loudly when they're safe in Australia and Putin is at risk.
It's clear. Putin is giving the West a taste of their own medicine. We stick our nose in everyone's business, fly recon around the world; sail our carriers in everyone's pond. He's making it clear that Russia will not be ignored.
I think he's got a point.
"...at the G-20 meeting in Sydney"
For fucks sake at least get the city right. It's being held in *Brisbane* for crying out loud. I know it's difficult to believe but there are other cities in Australia apart from the shithole Sydney.
Heh It's been updated now. Seems someone is on the ball after all.
You wanna really tic em off call it bris bane. \its brisbin btw
I refuse to pronounce it "Cayuhns" or "Melbun" because to me this is equally as ridiculous as someone from London coming to New York and trying to say it as "NEW YAWK" like a NYC street accent but otherwise having a British accent. But Brisbin is a bit different since that shouldn't really be bris-BANE in any accent.
Well, us (ex-) locals used to call it Brisvegas for pretty obvious reasons. Modelled itself as "The Party City of Australia", with all the booze, "nightlife" and whatever, along with astronomical levels of coastal strip development.
Don't miss it for an instant. Loud, Brash, Expensive and oh-so-superficial (just like Sydney in fact!!)
The oil is so cheap. May as well use some by sending 4 warships
AustL is no pushover. Maybe poopie can try his hand at sailing down there.
Really? Why is it then constantly pushed over by USA?
Maybe the ships are "insurance" to ensure Putin is not "rendered" in a hostile setting.
I think Putin may be getting a message that his life is in real danger, I believe it actually is.
Which would explain him possibly skipping the Sunday lunch.
+a lot.
Agreed.
If Putin was assassinated in some way, Washington, its alphabet agencies ..CIA and State Dept and sycophantic allies would have a field day parachuting in a Western puppet to run Russia and seize control of its huge supplies of oil/gas and other natural resources. Add to that it would have a long land border with China. NATO would quickly take up residence and Washington's next military adventure would soon follow.
Putin knows he is safe because if he didn't make it home, then Barry,Cameron,Harper.Merkel,Hollande would'nt make it home either.
True and while those western war criminals have no problem killing women and children, they do care a lot about their own lives.
Putin is almost turning into a parody of himself.
How so?

PUTIN is a CHICKENSHIT ... Hahahahahahahhahaha Chickenshit
yes he's such a tough guy ... does he also wear bullet proof vest and a iron helmet... Hahahahahaha
scared of his own shadow
The warships came along as a symbol of the fact that Russia is back - like it or not.
Sure - Russia's conventional military machine is far behind that of the U.S. But 5,000 advanced tactical nukes (compared to amerika's 300 old tactical nukes) and sophisticated asymmetric delivery systems such as Russia's supersonic cruise missiles and cavitating torpedos are the great equalizers to level the playing field. Not to mention Russia's ability to jam GPS sats and to shoot down AWACS from a long distance, effectively poking out the eyes of the U.S. military machine.
Any conflict between NATO and Russia is going to result a a hell of a lot of real pain for both sides - but NATO losses will be much more widespread and painful, in the form of vaporized aircraft carriers and fleets of aircraft.
Putin's Naval accompaniment is a reminder that Russia can and will inflict such pain if it is pushed too far, and that Russia will not be pushed around any longer without real consequences and costs.
Whenever I personally go to a drunken hillbilly shindig, I always strap my 50 Cal. Desert Eagle on my hip - as a reminder that I ain't gonna get bent over no damn log by no toothless fag hillbilly.
at least not without getting a reach around ... !!!

Australia, ‘better slave than dead’
by Jon Rappoport July 30, 2014
Remember the name "Pine Gap." It lies at the heart of this story.
...Snowden revealed that Pine Gap is one primary base from which the now-infamous NSA PRISM spying program operates.
Pine Gap is absolutely crucial to US military and intelligence agendas around the world.
It a vital link in NSA’s world spying operation.
Tanter remarks that, since Pine Gap is used to collate data directing US drone killing-strikes, the Australian government is legally culpable in those killings....

Putin has style and more bling than O'Bummer on this trip.
NOTE: I'll give him 10 points for the four warships.
O'Bummer gets 1 point for the frightened, terrified, dependant Koala
that symbolizes the American electorate and his voter base.
I concur on the dependency, but the Koala looks far more desperate to escape than most Americans.
Just so you know the Koala bear is trying to nurse Obama because she can instinctively tell when a baby needs a teat to suck on.
I think that you are confused. Barack is not a transsexual. It's his Wookie husband that is.
How interesting that Russia is becoming increasingly marginalized and demonized on the world stage.
Interesting to see where this goes next.
Sure Putin only has the support of 3/4 of the world population - you want to speak chinese or rusian, or spanish - draw a firm line now or pick your masters.

Q: Just what the fuck has Russia EVER done to deserve the mistrust and ire of the US, and the West? Be factual, objective and specific. If you can. [Tick, tock]
Ya Stalin was our friend as long as the war supplies kept being delivered. The iron curtain and the nucs in cuba were a definite open hand of friendship - not.
But U.S. ballistic missles in Turkey were an open hand of friendship toward USSR? Pfft, public skools.
and the missles in Turkey?
We should trust no one because we have not earned anyone else's trust. If it was simply a matter of our manipulations it might be forgivable, but America has outright lied to everyone, especially its own citizens. There is no law, no decree, no treaty that anyone should believe in, anywhere in the world. For Obama to promise anything to anyone is a slap in the face and an insult to one's intelligence.
Aye, Captain Kirk and let's not forget which western Head of State childishly snubbed President Putin at the Sochi Olympics this year: Obama. But Russia got even by winning the most medals!
Sochi was elegant
Best Olympics ever
they didnt lost 14 million people, but 26 millions. otherwhise, yea, i can understand when any fanzy nazi shake his flag russia got some irritability feeling.
Excellent points as usual, Cap'n. but to be pedeantic, the USSR initially sided with Germany in WW2, before Germany turned on them.
Still, USSR and Russian Federation are different things
Soviet was not a Russian construct
from 1917 thru Stalin was never Russians in control
Stalin was not a Russian. He was a Georgian criminal.
even Kruschev and Breznev were Ukraine nationals
and Gorby half Ukrainian
Quite so.
Kirk_NCC-1701:
Excellent review!
For my part I would add that Slavs did not threaten to not send messages.
Slavs have the patience of Job, are sympathetic to the point that explode!
Then they act!
Act as untimely and insane way that you do not know where it came to fight.
Half of my blood is Slavic, believe me I know what I'm talking about.

Q: Did Russia have advance warning of 911 but fail to warn the USA? A: No, but one of America's closest "allies" may have had advance notice ... http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/fiveisraelis.html
