No Longer Quiet On The Eastern Front (Part 2)

No Longer Quiet on the Eastern Front (Part 2)
This is the second of my three-part series that will explore the expanding fault line between the European Union and Russia, and the early stages of what I believe will eventually become known as the Second Cold War.
* * * * *
In the first part of this series we discussed Greece and its ongoing negotiations with the European Union – particularly with Germany – and how the complicated history between these two countries makes it exceedingly difficult for the Greek people to accept the terms on offer from the EU. The financial media’s reporting on the Greek saga has become quite dramatic (at least in comparison to other financial dramas); it has become one of the more memorable economic conflicts in recent years.
This time we will turn our attention north, to a different kind of conflict. This one has also wrought economic devastation to a European country, but of a much higher intensity. It is the first civil war that the European continent has seen since the Balkan Wars of the 1990s, when the regional superpower of Yugoslavia was ultimately broken up amidst a series of separatist and independence movements. Today’s conflict will almost certainly result in a similar outcome for its host country.
I’m talking, of course, about Ukraine. Let’s take a closer look.
A Very Bad Year For Ukraine
The past eighteen months have been cataclysmic for Ukraine. Its current descent into anarchy began in November 2013 with the Euromaidan protests, when pro-Western protestors denounced then-president Viktor Yanukovych and demanded closer integration with Europe. The protests endured until February 2014, when clashes between police and protestors descended into urban warfare. Police snipers used live ammunition against protestors and at least 88 people were killed within 48 hours.
Ukrainian politics are famously ruthless. Fistfights routinely break out in their parliament (gratuitous examples provided here and here). This is also the country where a former president was poisoned and disfigured by dioxin — and ultimately implicated the godfather of his own children as the culprit. Perhaps it’s no coincidence that Vitaliy Klitschko, a 200-cm world heavyweight boxing champion who has never been knocked out, is now the mayor of Kiev.

However, even the murder of unarmed protestors proved too much for arch-stooge Yanukovych to withstand and he was forced to flee Kiev within days. A media sideshow ensued when the public discovered their president-in-exile’s opulent dacha outside of Kiev, built with some of the billions that he had siphoned out of the country’s coffers. The ensuing “Marie Antoinette on the Dnieper River” moment, coupled with the rapidly increasing list of his former associates who have lately been found dead, ensures that he will not emerge from his current and undisclosed location anytime soon.

In such a chaotic political climate, it is rather unsurprising that the leadership vacuum created by Yanukovych’s hasty exit ultimately led to civil war and a thinly-veiled Russian military invasion. The Ukrainian presidency (also known as “the world’s least desirable head of state position”) was ultimately claimed by oligarch Petr Poroshenko, the “chocolate king” of Ukraine. His Roshen Corporation is the world’s 18th-largest confectionery company, providing him with a net worth of approximately $1.5 billion. He managed to win elections in May 2014 with enough margin to avoid a run-off.
However, Poroshenko has not always enjoyed similar support from his foreign friends. Take US Assistant Secretary of State Victoria Nuland, for instance. Married to conservative foreign policy commentator Robert Kagan, Nuland is one-half of the perennial Washington neoconservative power couple. Her husband aggressively pushed for the Iraq War; she now aggressively lobbies for American military sales to Ukraine and other Eastern European countries. Tasked with managing US diplomatic relations in Europe, Nuland became famous after a phone conversation between her and the US Ambassador to Ukraine was leaked to the media. During that call, Nuland made several references to whom she thought should become the next prime minister of Ukraine after Yanukovych’s ouster. Her recommendation, Arseniy Yatseniuk (whom she referred to colloquially as “Yats”) became the PM on 27 February but was defeated by Poroshenko in elections. The call descended from creepy interventionist plot into a full-on diplomatic neutron bomb when she was quoted as saying “F*** the EU” in response to the continent’s leaders failing to join ranks with the US in enforcing sanctions against Ukrainian political leaders. Whether or not her interference played a role in the succession of “Yats”, the incident provided the Russian government with a golden opportunity to portray her as a villain, and to paint the pro-European Maidan protests as more of the usual American meddling.

All of this aside, it goes a bit beyond hypocritical when the Russians accuse the US of meddling in Ukraine’s affairs. In contrast to one diplomat’s ill-advised comments, Putin has spent the past twelve months taking the art of covert foreign intervention to a new level. When was the last time a foreign power sent armored columns of tanks and troop carriers into a neighboring country and denied that such an event was actually happening?
The Russian Angle
This week marks the one-year anniversary of Russia’s annexation of Crimea. Conveniently, Putin made the decision to send Russian troops into Sevastopol on the eve of the Olympic closing ceremonies in Sochi. Overall the past year has been quite peaceful if you live in Crimea. The same cannot be said of the eastern regions of Donetsk and Lugansk, where loss of confidence in Kiev’s government led to the establishment of separatist movements and new allegiances to Russia. Over 5,000 soldiers, partisans and civilians have died in the intense fighting that has taken place in those regions over the past year.
Western media has portrayed Russian incursions into eastern Ukraine as a “reign of terror” (a quote from none other than Victoria Nuland) where chaos abounds and no one is safe. One wonders how this can be true after reviewing poll counts from a March 2014 referendum where Crimeans voted on the issue of secession from Ukraine and annexation to Russia — 83% of the population cast a vote, and 96% of those voted in favor of annexation. A “reign of terror” might be under way against some hard-line ethnic Tatars who refuse to accept majority rule, but overall these facts appear to further undermine whatever shred of credibility Nuland and the US can still lay claim to on this topic. According to several polls, Crimeans overwhelmingly lost faith in the Yanukovych government and believed that the Maidan protests were orchestrated by the West. As shown below, nearly two-thirds of Crimean residents have Russian heritage and a collective decision was made to seek safety and security in their homeland.

The battlegrounds of Donetsk and Lugansk are far more difficult to explain. These are the eastern provinces where the vast majority of conflicts has taken place. Over the past several months we have been shown images of high-intensity conflict from Ukrainian villages like Debaltseve and Mariupol. Over 5,000 have died in these conflicts since the two provinces declared themselves to be independent sovereigns (the Donetsk and Lugansk People’s Republics, naturally) that swore allegiance to Russia, who have had the diplomatic sense to stop short of recognizing their independence. To date the only foreign “country” to recognize their status is South Ossetia, another former battleground on Russia’s border that has remained in a state of suspended animation since it left the Georgian sphere of influence in 2008 (and Russia’s most recent foreign incursion).
Why Is This Important?
Before we answer that question, let’s take a quick look at Ukraine’s economy:
- Population: 44.2 million
- Population growth rate in 2013: -0.6% (lowest in Europe)
- GDP (2013 official): US$ 175B (purchasing power parity of US$ 377B)
- GDP per capita: US$ 7,400 (2nd lowest in Europe)
- GDP growth rate (2014): -7.5%
- GDP growth rate (2015E): -4.5%
- Trade deficit (2014): -6.9%
Ukraine's currency, the hryvnia, is the worst-performing currency in the world with a 40% loss against the USD in 2014 and another 40% drop reported so far this year. A drop of this magnitude has been enough to spark hyperinflation in the country — as high as 272%, according to one economist. Two weeks ago Ukraine raised its benchmark interest rate by 10.5 points, up to 30%, in an effort to stop the bleeding. The increased lending rate makes it all but certain that business activity will come to a screeching halt.
An emergency $17.5B rescue package was negotiated with the IMF earlier this month. The country is no stranger to the IMF’s lending officers; they have accepted eight loans since 1991, and only completed one program successfully. Even with an IMF bailout, the economy is in terrible shape. Foreign currency reserves have dropped below $10 billion, which is less than the interest payments that must be paid to service the Kiev government’s existing debt.
The IMF’s economic bailout is not the only aid package being discussed in Western policy circles. Calls for increased military aid to the Ukrainian government are coming from the usual Washington suspects: US secretary of defense Ashton Carter (who lobbied to bomb Iran in 2009), Senator Lindsey Graham (together with John McCain, the neocon wing’s “Odd Couple”), and, of course, Victoria Nuland of the US State Department who has led the push for regime change in Kiev since the Maidan protests last year.
Unsurprisingly, this contingent of (chicken)hawks is encountering resistance from their EU partners, who are wary of a proxy war on the European continent. Everyone involved knows that, if push comes to shove, Putin is the only player who is willing to send troops to fight in Ukraine. There is not a single NATO signatory that is willing to do the same. This became apparent in 2008, when the Ukrainian government applied to join NATO and was rebuffed by both France and Germany, who cited concerns about “the balance of power between Europe and Russia.” Ukraine has always known that it cannot count on European assistance in the event of a conflict with Russia, and in fact a 2008 poll found that over 40% of Ukrainians expressed suspicion and distrust toward NATO.
Both Ukrainians and Russians are well aware of the enormous power that Russia holds over the European continent. Eastern Europe is almost completely dependent upon reliable imports of Russian natural gas, and even the Germans and French are loth to shake the bear’s cage too much. In addition to gas imports, Russia remains one of Germany’s and France’s most significant trading partners; Russia is a reliable buyer of heavy mining and engineering equipment, and US-led sanctions have undoubtedly been a thorn in the side of the export-driven German economy of late. The US, whose exports to Russia are essentially non-existent (less than 0.2% of GDP), is quite content to sit back and push its European partners into supporting economically painful sanctions programs. It’s therefore a bit disingenuous to accuse the Europeans in going wobbly on sanctions when their interests clearly compel them to be much less aggressive toward Russia. That is exactly what is now happening, as the head of US sanctions policy just visited Brussels last week amidst mounting European opposition to an extension of anti-Russian sanctions when the EU is next scheduled to debate an extension, in June of this year.

None of this is meant to imply support of, or admiration for, Russia’s covert military campaign in eastern Ukraine which has led to widespread mayhem and loss of life over the past several months. However the endgame in Ukraine appears inevitable at this point. Crimea has peacefully and quite happily run the Russian tricolor up the flagpole, and two provinces from the country’s industrial heartland have seceded from Kiev. Several other disputed enclaves sit astride the Russian border - South Ossetia, Nagorno-Karabakh, Transdniestria — but Donetsk and Lugansk sit uncomfortably close to the heart of Europe.
The Kiev-based Ukrainian government has no choice but to accept the fact that its country is, and will continue to be, substantially smaller than it was 18 months ago. Its tax base has been reduced substantially, and its banks are going to have to write their number of ‘non-performing loans’ (currently approaching rates of 20%) substantially upward as they realize that most will never be repaid.
There is a story that was never confirmed, but has been widely reported: at a summit in Bucharest in 2008, Putin spoke to US President George W. Bush and told him, "You have to understand, George. Ukraine is not even a country.” This statement summarizes Moscow’s long-held view toward Ukraine — that it is an artificial state created in the wake of the Soviet Union’s demise. Putin has been quoted as saying that the USSR’s collapse ranks as the “greatest geopolitical catastrophe of the 20th century.” With that in mind, why should we be surprised at Russia’s aggressive moves into eastern Ukraine?
===================
I have been looking at the investment implications of the Ukrainian break-up. The obvious play is to search for deep-value opportunities on the Ukrainian stock exchange (also known as the UX), where 80% of the listings are heavy industrials and basic materials. The UX index seems to be finding a level, after a -35% selloff last year, and has rebounded slightly in 2015. Dragon Capital and Galt & Taggart (apparently Ayn Rand has fans in eastern Europe) are well-known equity brokers who can work with foreign investors.
If you decide to take a punt on Ukrainian stocks, take comfort in knowing that you won’t fare as poorly as Rinat Akhmetov has this year. Akhmetov, a Ukrainian oligarch, has lost as much as $5.8bn in the conflict. His SCM Group owns coal mines, steel mills, and power generation operations in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine. His steel mills in other regions are now forced to import coal from Russia and South Africa. Dozens of his employees have been killed or injured in the fighting. Over 70,000 of his employees are located in Donetsk and Luhansk, which are now rebel-controlled. SCM Group has stated that these companies are still under their control and operating under Ukrainian law. (Good luck with that.) Akhmetov is well-known for carefully straddling the Moscow-Kiev divide, an exceptionally difficult act to perform in the current environment.
* * * * *
Next time, in the final part of this series, we will take a trip east to Moscow where we shall further explore Russia’s expected actions along the growing European fault line. We will also take a look at other potential regional hot-spots, and how we might all be surprised at where the next battleground of the Second Cold War kicks off.
One final note, on an update to my recent article on Greece. I was entertained to see that the intrepid Ms. Nuland (as mentioned above) decided to pay a visit to Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras in Athens this week. It seems that the US has been watching Tsipras’ ongoing difficulties with EU debt negotiations, and has heard about his pending 8 April trip to Moscow where he almost certainly intends to explore alternatives to further austerity as prescribed by Herr Schäuble of the German Finance Ministry. It appears that Washington and Moscow may soon be climbing over each other to provide “aid packages” to the Greeks.

Full of half truths. For Example.Yanukovitch was corrupt but he was presented with an all or nothing option regarding "going with Europe" This would have been a disaster for Ukraine's industry as it needed time to adapt to european standards as it was set up to supply Russia. The snipers were clearly agents paid from outside to fire on both sides and foment revolution. Yanukovitch tried to handle the riots peacefully. No mention that most of East Ukraine is ethnically Russian. This means they have kinship ties across the border to Russia. Russia has every reason to be involved in what happens here unlike the USA which if you look at a map is not even on the same continent.
The USSA couldn't give a rats ass about democracy, human rights blah blah blah, in the Ukraine. All the American Nazi's care about is overthrowing Putin, and stealing Russia's resources, just like in the good ol' days of the 1990's. The USSA banksters also need to control Russian to dominate China, thus dominating the world.
Everything else is BS
Imagine what a hell hole this planet would be if the USSA and Russia combined their resources and threatened the rest of the world.
feck off back to russia hypocrite
hahah pissed pussy . Frustration is obvious when you're loosing your disinformation war .
Indeed! When truth catches up to a set of lies, the liars get pretty pissed off.
The Ukie fascist stooges are losing the Infowar because it is becoming obvious to everyone except the american shlubs that the Ukraine is controlled by nazi Lunatics. Billions spent on MSM lies cannot stop the truth from emergin.
no. i don't give a rat's testicle about the ukranians. i just loathe puutie poots and i subscribe to the theory of international law
No, you are just a Ukie troll working for your daily potato.
Besides, who cares what you think about the theory of international law, other than yourself?
LIke reading time magazine. Not one mention of the CIA s 5 billion, or the torched apartment building full of Russian nationals.
I stopped reading at "Police snipers".
I stopped reading after: "Its current descent into anarchy began in November 2013"
Does the author of this drivel even know the definition of "anarchy"?
Edit: What we have in the Ukraine right now is a US controlled fascist dictatorship!

What part of international law allows the west to fund and back the violent overthrow of an elected government?
How did that pussy last on here four plus years. I think its nine lives are about up.

You're just another government lover that exonerates it from all of its evil.
Another pathetic dupe.
International law? Do you think it should apply to the US as well, or are you fine with the CIA running around destabilizing countries and installing puppet governments?
are you international lawyer?
VV Putin happen to be Lawyer.

Hey Pendragon, shouldn't you be picking up an AK 47 and fighting the Russian hordes in Donbass, instead of hiding behind a keyboard?
According to Google, ukrainians have a name for you, it's called 'boyahuz', a coward.
kote is a EBPEN and they don't fight.
You failed to point out an hypocracy? Might not you do that before calling someone a hypocrite without any cause, reason or evidence to do so? Or is that simply a troll post?

No more dull than your usual cheap propaganda furballs.
bored pussie
Yushchenko has leprosy.
Latain, I just listen to D. Orlov give a long interview about Ukraine. He pointed out that the main and first goal of the western coup was to snatch the Crimea as a military base as quickly as possible. Euro Maidan troops left for Crimea the day After the coup succeeded in Kiev. They were followed next day by Urkainian Army troops. The Maidan crowd could not cross the border due to former Ukrainian security police guarding the crossing points. By the time the Ukrainian army arrived, Cossacks loyal to Russian Crimea arrived in numbers and began mining the border and digging defenses. One try to break this line by the Madian failed, and a following attempt by the army to break a hole on a secondary road also failed. Once Maidan could not enter Crimea, the USA was enraged that the coup had not reached there! Thus the extreme anger by the USA. The plan was to take Kiev, and within 5 days flood the Crimea with the entire Euro Maidan thousands, with Ukrainian Amry troops following. But it was too late. Russian Navy troops faced down the 20,000 Ukrainian troops in Crimea. Many of whom defected to the Russian army, the rest were allowed to leave.\
Anyways. Orlov said that Crimea was what the west was really after, and events seem to back that up.
The US was so smug about it Jack, they'd already sent out tender docs for the USN
facilities in Crimea months before Maidan.
Inquiring minds should want to ask about the prescience.
Jack Burton, D. Orlov is correct in his analysis.
I have written extensively in other posts on this topic, but to summarize, Crimea was the BIG prize that the USSA sought to capture for the following reasons:
-World's best Military Naval Base, with literally 100's of billions in Dollar equivalents developing it.
-Commanding control over the Black Sea, and thus countries bordering it.
-Hundreds of Billions in offshore Oil and Gas resources
-Gateway to the creation of the WhiteStream Pipeline, that would have transported gas from the ME, and connected into the Ukraine, displacing Gazprom
-Loss of Crimea would have a huge psychological blow to the Russians, akin to losing Florida.
My favorite part of watching this unfolding drama is listening to the Neocon screeches after Putin gave them a huge poke in the eye, by taking the best part of the Ukraine (including Donbass), and leaving them with the Nazi losers. Once Odessa, Karkov and Nikolaiev leave, the ruin of the remaining rump of the Ukraine will be complete.
Plus airfields and deep nuke bunkers from WP days.
Oh, and bragging rights over the Brits who failed to do the same a while back.
Exactly. Crimea is practically one huge military installation, that would have placed Russia at a huge strategic disadvantage had the USSA captured it. Fortunately for Russia, the Nudelman and other state department bunglers are good at lying, back stabbing and deceit, but shitty strategists.
that was fun watching unfold during the Russian winter Olympics.......as soon as the Games were over Putin made his move........
I found it to be just as entertaining as the Olympics. They should of given Putin and the rest of his staff gold medals for outstanding strategy in a winter campaign hahaha.
Interesting. Can you provide a link to your source?
http://redpilltimes.com/u-s-navy-tender-construction-work-sevastopol-cri...
Hahaha, since when did the US Navy take such a keen interest in land schools, maybe they thought of Crimea as carrier. Were those schools to be for US Navy staff kids hmmm.
Cover for the plans put out.They weren't of a school.One was a drydock according to
a QS I know who saw them
Excellent! Thank you.
There is this link showing USN soliciting for bids for renovation of sites in Crimea. raised September 2013, cancelled April 15 2104.
https://z5h64q92x9.net/tr-url/fr-en.en/lepontduhadu.blogspot.fr/2014/11/...
Yes Winston! I read hacked Ukrainian emails detailing that the US military had put out for bids the building and modernizing of naval and air bases in Crimea, BEFORE the coup even took place.
Amazing! Also, did you know the entire senior officer corps of Ukraine is on the US Military Pay Roll? Not just monthly pay checks, but expense accounts! Most likely the entire officer corps of Ukraine is US paid, with the senior officers getting the expense accouts. Kiev has no money, yet fights a war and rearms after every defeat. Only American money could keep Ukraine's army fighting, even as half their army has been destroyed by the rebels.
Increase of shelling on Gorlovka and Donetsk
UA using some big stuff, when/if observers come, they pull back,
More fighting down line Debaltso, Donetsk to near Mariupol
This is from fact finding excursion by friend, her friends ask questions

thanks. got downvoted for asking. ha.
A Lithuanian troll keeps down voting everything. As if having no argument to make, as most ZH readers do know the USA took over Ukraine in a coup, and Kiev shot down MH-17, just for starters, since he knows we will not listen to his lies, he down votes like a machine, as if that will force his point across.
ZH is a bad place to try and sell lies, we all do a lot of reading outside MSM, and most ZH ers, no matter their politics, are pretty well informed about news. The MSM makes no headway here.
"All the American Nazi's care about is overthrowing Putin, and stealing Russia's resources"
I thought they'd already done that under Yeltsin, with the loot stored in Tel Aviv?
They didn't steal it all, althrough they stole hundreds of billions from Russia.
Several of Ukraine's richest Oligarchs are Israeli citizens, and the one who is not has bragged that he can get one at any time just for asking. Thus Israel has a strong Mossad presence in West Ukraine and Kiev. Mossad agents worked for over 20 years to foster the fascist movements in Lovov, which led to Right Sector and other openly Nazi groups growing in numbers and training youth to follow the fascist radical Ukrainian nationalist path. Mossad trained many of the Euro Maidan shock troops. In camps in Poland and Lithuania. US CIA provided the money for Israeli trainers to pay the fascists between 50 and 1,000 Euros a day. Regular troops getting 50-10 Euros a day. A fortune to a Ukrainian.
didn't get finished
before Yeltsin handed off to Putin team..

The article is competently-written misinformation i.e. both propaganda (which is fair enough) and deliberately misleading in many subtle and not-so-subtle ways.
FWIW the "polite men in green" are implied to be in Eastern Ukraine, while that photo is almost certainly taken in Crimea.
Yanuk not so terrible, was only obsessed thief, those Kiev now are much worst criminals and cold killers.
Yanukovych one of very few Slavs among the Oligarchs and was less powerful
thus elected as least of evils Ukrainians choices...
Berkut were not allowed sidearms at all, several were violently burned, killed...
only after snipers killed both Berkut/Militias and demonstrators were any countersniper deployed.
Many of the killed demonstrators were sent into kill zone..
Agreed. As another point, in re:
... and, of course, Victoria Nuland of the US State Department who has led the push for regime change in Kiev since the Maidan protests last year.
More truthful to state that she led the pre-coup planning for the past 10 years.
Sadly, I place more trust in Russia and putin than I do the girl we currently have in office.
We now have a war criminal government who's only first thought is to cover its ass.
They are immoral and illegal, and as such, should be put down by any extreme necessary
IMHO, we need to include the GBR whenever the USA is mentioned in this Topic; and Vice versa.
Just from observing Foreigh Policies from the past and reviewing "Anti-Rest-of-the-World" Propaganda being spewed, I'm beginning to consider the Anglo-American Partnership as "Conjoined Twins" and the greater Five-Eyed (Anglo-American-Masonic USA, GBR, AUS, NZL, CAN) Federation as one Daisy-Chained and Cluster-Fracked Beast.
a balanced piece. don't bother with part 3
Full of Half truths .
If you are referring to Pendragon's comment, it would be more accurate to say it is half full of truth.
irony is a tricky concept
Why does this piece of writing taste worse than state department propaganda?
Because it is regurgitated propaganda.
Victoria Nuland on a well deserved vacation? Words fail me.
I had assumed this to be sarcastic. Don't tell me they're seriously suggesting that this war pig deserves a vacation?
The pig cunt deserves a vacation to a concentration camp
“Irony is wasted on the stupid”
As a reasonably intelligent Asperger's, I've always thought that irony was a silly product of the neurotypical mind.
And a waste of time.
irony is best kept to oneself
I'd say it's completely full of something
The Jig is Up, Pendragon.
Your 4 Years of Trolling and "possibly" spying for your Masters and Allies (Birthers, Tea Party, Zioncon/Neocon, GOPee, Vatican, MIC/Oil-Oligarchy, Five-Eyes, DoD, NSA, CIA, et al) have run its course here.
Regardless of your Political/Economic/Ideological Prefrences, You haven't contributed to this Site's Discussion Threads in a constructive manner(including citing references worthy of an infomed/educated debate, when the Thread calls for them); and people who do - have come forth to cut down your often baseless provocations.
However, enough is enough. I'm not involved in this Site's Mgmt Team; but before you piss/turn off more Talented Members (who may rather quit that continue scrolling the pages to see your worthless Trolling), I think Team_ZH may step in pretty soon.
9/11 and the Ukraine "crisis" since 2014 is Zion on display for all to see.
At least for those looking.
The banksters need to repay us.
Many say that Republican and Democrat, Red and Blue, Communism and Fascism, are opposite sides of the same coin. But what of the coin? That coin is Zion. Always about money, power, and division.
He agrees with you and he was in a position to know:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x8OmxI2AYV8
The government of the USA was taken over in a silent money and bribe fueled coup many years ago. It was Israel and their Zionist followers inside the USA who carried the coup out. They won control of the US Government. And we are being ruled by zionism ever since. Zionism is "Israel", "the Banks","the Major Investment Houses", "Corporate CEOs", "Christian fundamentalist Zionists" and"a large part of the Jewish American community".
As I point out. A christian can be a more rabid zionist than many Jews. In many cases the worst zionists are not even Jews. But most Jews are Zionists, and they throw their whole weight behind American Zionism.
+100
Anyone disagreeing with you is a fool, liar or ciminally disinterested.
You see clearly, Jack Burton. +100
I am just old enough to remember America before the Zionist takeover became fully effective. Washington was pro Israel, but practiced a foreign policy of American interests. I was in the Navy some years when veterans were still in the fleet who remember the Zionist murder of the USS Liberty. We knew Zionism was taking full control of our government when Washington officially threw the wounded survivors to the dogs, while protecting all the murderers and covering up the very act. But Navy guys who were around at that time learned all about what had happended. As a young sailor I met an electronics specialist who served on a similar ship to USS Liberty, he was active in the Medit fleet the day Israel attacked. His hatred for Israel knew no limits! But he was orderd to silence by official USN command.

The US government was lost well before Israel existed or does your history only begin in 1947? 1913 is really the year to look at.

I used to be a Pro-ISR Christian. Then I became a Pro-ISR Ethical Monotheist after leaving Xianity behind.
I've studied/attended Judaism Worship Services with the Jewish; but I've noticed a strange "Cluster" of Wannabe Cults (either related by blood, wish to hang around, seeking to convert, etc. - these hangers-on must be included, since they comprise most of the Chabad Students) as well as Ethnic and Political Enclaves that comprise what I consider "Greater Israel" here in SoCal (and reflecting back, in the USA).
From my Multi-Year observations, most of the Current "renditions" of Judaism (or Torah / Talmudic Judaism - as opposed to the Biblical/Historical Judaism practiced when the Temple was up and running until the 1st CE) remain as "Ethnic" Collectives. Though the "Current" Representatives of the Askhinazi (Non-Mediterranean European) Jewish have allegedly come from Caucus Mountain Converts - and there are many who converted/joined themselves to the "Tribe", It doesn't fare well for converts/intermarried partners who aren't ethnically (Ashkenazi) Jewish - since some asshole in one form or another(from within and without - say Conservative/Masorti, Iranian/Mitzrahi Jewish and Christian, Haredi, Chabad, Lebanese/Black Druze, Black Muslim/Xian, Jew4Jesus Xians, Secular/Gay Jewish, Mormons, JWs, 7thDayAdv, and Xian Re-converters/Proselytizers/Dominionist/Replacement Theologists) will always seek to stalk and meddle in some form or another.
I"m all for ISR having a Nation-State for themselves (for EVERYONE'S Peace of Mind); and GBR(partly influenced by its British Israelism) niggardly portioned out the Land in that region. IMHO, they've the right over Gaza, West Bank, and Sinai after the Six-Day/Yom Kippur Wars of Invasion. Though they returned the Sinai, they should have declared War or formally annexed those pots of land, givng safe passage to the residents on their way out. The USA should have stayed out of LEB; and let ISR chase off the PLO.
That would have settled the Arab-Israeli Conflict in the eyes of "Most of the World". Reagan buttocked it up.
Ironically, EGY has offered a part of the Sinai to the "Palis" (who were kicked out of KWT for cheering on the IRQi invasion; and later danced for joy on 9/11) so they can live in peace and move on. The Palis, not being so bright, have thus far refused.
However, I'm not too fond of what's being dug up from the Historical Events Discussions. Even more from this Saber Rattling against IRN (who held a Vigil and a Peace Offering of Cooperation against the Taliban post 9/11 - rejected by Dubya and his Sith Lord). I've also encountered an uncomfortable line/succession of Jewish/Affiliated Entities (including TSLA/SpaceX Employees/Supporters) engaged in an antagonistic manner against my Career/Business Endeavors as well.
If it weren't for my own set of Ethics and good Jewish Acquantances from my Past, I may have been persuaded to join the Jewish Boycott; but I must admit that FAR too many Jewish (Masonic/Illuminati/PoliticalActivist/GayLobby) Enclaves are fracking people over and pissing them off for their selfish/usurious endeavors; and its harder to hide.
I've yet to fully uncover the "quasi-guerrilla" Tactics used by the Cult Racketeers; but as for any future (social and theological - note that I'm going to keep future business/education out this for now) dealings with the Jewish, I'm going to keep my lines of communications restricted to a very few - trustworthy People.
Zioncons are by far - at the "Deep End" of the Sociopathic Scale. Outside of Humanitarian Endeavors, I recommend proceeding with Suspicion and Caution when dealing with them.
... money, power, polarization ... (milking th coin analogy for all its worth)
dick wavin in russia backyard . Btw the guy who played putin in house of cards was ridiculous .
He was meant to me ridiculous. When does Hollywood ever potray Putin in a positive light, despite being a far, far better leader than Obama? Even if you hate him, it's obvious that Putin loves Russia while Obama hates America.
Which leader would you rather have representing your country?
Frank Underwood .
I also prefer Hollywood actors. Washington is show business for ugly people. I'd take Frank's wife over Michele/Michael/Wookie anytime.
Francis Urquhart.
Kevin Spacey is always good, but no match for Ian Richardson's F.U. for sheer understated malevolence in Kevin Dobb's original trilogy of House of Cards.
Originally cast as a far right Tory in the Thatcher mold, Francis is so unrelenting in his callous disregard for any positions the left would favor that his character would leave them seething with anger and cheering his downfall. Those of a conservative bent may feel a tad uncomfortable at his bloodless caricature of the far right wing.
Truly a performance not to be missed. If you have Netflix and love to see a crocodile hunt his dinner then you need to see the BBC series.

I don't want a person leading my country.
"Which leader would you rather have representing your country?"
Neither.
It's pretty obvious why the Party of Regions wins elections in provinces that are much less than 50% Russian. Because a lot of ethnic Russians write "Ukrainian" on the census form but vote Russian on the secret ballot.
So called true blue Ukies are a polish mix found in the western part of the country. The Ukraine was part of Russia for hundreds of years. They are essentially the same people
The Polish mix also resulted in animosity and prejudice as a result of territorial disputes and invasions between both kingdoms throughout history. . Another mix included a small Jewish minority that were considered the money changers because they were itinerant merchants. The play Fiddler on the Roof portrayed Jewish life in Ukraine. Now the Kiev government consists of a majority of Jews in Ukraine with support of Jews outside of Ukraine. This is a formula for civil upheval when the economy collapses which is inevitable because Ukraine is economically and industrially dismembered. Poroshenko and the IMF understand this and have encouraged Kiev to unify Ukraine by force which so far has been a military failure. Obviously if push comes to shove, East Ukraine will prevail due to history, strategic military and cultural alliance with Russia as well as will of the people, while Western Ukraine is fractured with weak allegencies, split personality and unreliable in combat. Poroshenko must certainly be constantly looking over his shoulder and relying on Blackwater for protection. It appears the US is involved in another war of attrition with history against it.
most real hstorical Ukrainians and Russians resemble and are of same mind, not just blood, families..
Good people, hard workers, strong minds,
not stupid gullible like western regions...so many poles, who are own natural enemies
different people from appearance features countenance, speakings
mostly pollacks in what was former Polish regions poor
also some balts, mixed others and outsiders make radical violent groups...were taught mayhem
and mass brainwashed stupid portion voters reached by agitations and false promises.
"even the murder of unarmed protestors proved too much for arch-stooge Yanukovych to withstand"
For now, this is as far as I read. Why? Well, this is an obivous talking point of the State department that is now all but proven to be a lie. All the evidence is pointing right at the leaders of Euro Maidan and their CIA handlers. The mass killing of the "heavenly One Hundred" thos shot dead by snipers. The gun shots came from a building under total control of the Euro Maidan battalions, video exists of protestors aremed with sniper rifles going into the building. And on and on one could go with the evidence.
Why does the post above start with a known lie. What else is written there shall we trust as a real attempt to expose the true situation? Looks like State Department to me. But later I'll read it all and see. For now I smell a rat.
Jack Burton, critical thinking was cut out of the American educational system long ago. This writer is a good example of the dumbing down of America.
For example, the new lie is that metal fragment found 4 months later, (outside of the chain of custody of course), is 'proof' that Buk shot down MH17. Yet, no one has the critical facilties to ask why haven't the black box recordings been released, and where are the statements from the air traffic controllers?
Because the air controllers have been snipped into little pieces and disposed of in mulitple trashcans?
Not to mention the twitter feed from the guy working at ATC giving a real-time account as it happened.
A twitter feed which can no longer be linked, as his account was suddently deleted the next day.
well, who think not intercepted and analyzed?
Latina, Just this morning, in between getting my work done, I read the entire report by the Dutch source claiming this one fragment proves the BUK theory. In fact, he has one fragment that kind of looks like a piece of BUK shrapnel. Was it part of the wreck?
But he damns himself not by what he shows and claims, but by what he does not show! The mass of 30mm cannon shell holes all around the cockpit. The graze markes for 30mm cannon shells on the left, pilots side wing. And the obvious 30mm cannon holes in the cockpit seats and engine cowling of the left hand engine. He failed to mention fairly obvious rod shrapnel damage to the aircraft. The kind used in air to air missiles carried by the SU-25.
All this was not mentioned, no photos of it shown. But he spends pages talking out one fragment, that looks a little like a BUK shrapnel. We don't know where he got it. He is dubious at best. A transparent CIA set up at worst.
Agreed. One fragment picked up 4 months later, proves nothing. All the evidence you need is in front of your eyes. I just wonder why the Russians don't 'out' the Dutch for the liars they are by releasing their satellite and black box records.
.... And control tower communication intercepts.
Wait
for trip themselves,
then kick if needed
Russia might be holding on to it to force the West to sweat! Knowing that the USA has the same information and Russia does, and knowing the USA dare not release it is a good position to bargain from. If the west tries to blame rebels, Russia has the smoking gun to catch them lying!. So it makes sense that the west has gone black out about MH-17. That the black box information is being hidden in England. That the Dutch move as slowly as possible. That NO WESTERN source dares publish cockpit photos showing it shot to hell with a 30MM cannon. Russia is letting the West stew in their lies, and waitng to OUT them when they officially try and declare a rebel BUK shot the MH-17 down.
If the USA had proof, that they claim to have, why do they fail to release one word of it? We know. The proof the USA has shows a Ukrainian SU-25 hit MH-17 with a missile, this failed to bring the huge plane down, shooting out only one engine. Then the Su-25 moved in to kill with it's 30mm air to air cannon, blowing up the cockpit, tearing the pilot in two.
Witnesses on the ground saw two fighter aircraft trailing the MH-17.
They heard loud, machine gun like sounds high up in the sky.
They saw the plane swerve, and then begin to break apart, with a small silver colored jet fighter flying away at speed.
Yet, we still get lied to.
For me the telling item is the lack of a trail that a Buk would have left, which would have been photo'd by locals.
It's quite obvious that the entire Ukraine thing is nothing but one lie after another. It's sad and pathetic that some folks beleive because they feel the need.
As for myself, I try to let the truth lead me as I uncover it. It gets lonely sometimes.
BTW. Some years ago, I got into a discussion about 911. I got my ass reamed because I was trying to present the position as I understood it, as it was presented to me by the media. The experience compelled me to dig more deeply into the matter.
As I say, it gets lonely sometimes.Better alone than in bad company.
I am thankful for the experience.
BINGO! The vapor trail on a day like that, with those weather conditions and winds would have left a huge white vapor trail from ground to Aircraft target for all to see. Nobody did, nobody filmed it, even though dozens of cell phone cameras were recording at the time the plane came down.
Look a youtube, you can watch any number of Buk launches, this rocket engine leaves a hige clear vapor trail. Every time.
If Kiev had one real photo, but no. No witness saw a vapor trail. What witnesses DID SEE were two fighter jets in the area of the MH-17.
Local fighters in area had one Strela, absolutely no BUK.
Witnesses too many in area seen/hear attack aircraft..there are dozens witnesses
No witness of BUK, sound or trail. None.
From informer tells witnesses ignored by investigation, who look other way
Rebels had not one single Radar working for them. BUK needs a radar to detect and do a fire control solution. BUT, Ukraine had at least 5 BUK systems in the area. I watched them moving up in convoys on youtube a few days BEFORE MH-17 was shot down. Only Kiev had BUKS there. So if Kiev insists a BUK did it, then Kiev did it. fuckers!
as good evidence as came from crackerjack box
This is not the first time ZH has hosted and promoted such blantant articles that are filled with state supporting lies.
The Tylers even penned some themselves claiming it was factual that there was a hidden russian sub when not only had no sub been found so obviously their claim of one being russian was simply lies. The Tylers ignored the non russian officials who finally came out that there was no distress call either. Instead the Tylers kept beating the drums there was a russian sub that had been seen and that had issued a distress call.
Some here have realized the Tyler's are not what was once preceived and have become more wary of intent. Or perhaps they are just posting and writing what they think will get the most clicks in the hope of building readership to then sell the site (like huffingtonpost).
Stumpy, the Tylers are in the business of web traffic, and also try to provide some balance. I doubt they actually endorse this article.
Differences of opinion such as the significance of an event, cause or possible outcomes is balance.
Simply promoting blantant lies by both sides is not. If that is to be done then the Tylers have to indicate the articles contain clearly false facts.
I guess the Tylers can make a case that since the WUke leaders claimed Russia drove columns of tanks in the Uke that is sufficient proof to call this a difference of opinion and not a factual lie. Now to what extent do the Tylers operate in this manner in their financial postings, figures and data?
We're starved for truth.
This is raw red meat.
Attack it.
He reminds me of Jim Rickards or even a Jim Quinn. You can write half truths sprinkled with provocative ideas and attract lots of readers, but if you consistently avoid discussing critical related facts all credibility is lost. This guy is clearly working for some think tank and the article is clearly one of the many stepping stones in the historical cleansing of yet another US instigated war.
I cannot claim to know Jim Rickards opinion well enough to give a thought on it, but you to call Jim Quinn to consistently avoid discussing critical related facts is ridiculous at best.
Jim Quinn has consistently avoided any discussion of 9/11 on this site and on his own. All 3 (this author, quinn and rickards) deny the truth about this critical milestone of our recent history, or refuse to discuss it and thereby assist in the stifling of alternate forms of information and prevents them from reaching the sheeple. This is not only bad, it it wrong. It is Badong. All 3 are merely tools to the anglozionists.
Quinn and Rickards don't deny the central truth about 9/11, which is that it was used to dismantle the Constitution, the Bill Of Rights, and the Magna Charta.
I am also not aware that any of Quinn or Rickards have stated that 9/11 itself was a completely unforeseen/unforeseeable event, so in other words they allow for LIHOP if not MIHOP. That's all that needs to be said about it, now let's focus on the central truth.
I say it once more for you:
All other bickering about the specifics of certain details of the event, and thereby ignoring/pushing aside the much more important central truth I mentioned above, only plays into the hands of the divide and conquer psychopaths.
It starts with a shocking lie, an emotionally filled, lurid claim with INTENT.
"One in every five of the human race are highly suggestible, at least half are suggestible to a very considerable degree. But here mere figures do not tell the story. That one-fifth has a power far beyond its numbers, for this type of man, acting under direct suggestion, is no mere average person. He is a fanatic in the highest -- or lowest -- sense of the word. George Estabrooks 1943
The Biggest Secret of Hypnosis of ALL is not really hypnosis
The formula is to state a shocking, outrageous claim, like "Holocaust denier" followed by the lies you wish the person to believe to be true. A lurid emotionally intense thought stopping claim, - vivid language that invokes imagery, like 'worm'. After thinking stops one is more easily influenced by direct suggestions, everything stated just after the shocking accusation will be held as 'true', without thinking consent or evaulation, directly embedded into the subconscious as a fact. This is not hypnosis as such but is more the implanting of a phobia, the generation of a complex in the mind of the target and in the minds of those watching the exchange. This is a secret technique of lawyers to influence juries, it is also a military technique to cause the person to believe as true whatever is stated just after the lurid and shocking opening statement. Used in what is known as the stage attack method, the parental authority technique, and used with "prestige suggestion" It is similar in tone to how a child is treated who has done something bad, and tends to regress an adult and the audience watching towards intensely prior suggestible infantile emotional states, drawing it's power from those early incidents. It creates a subconscious phobia to avoid anything to do with whatever reminds them of the unpleasant expereince...
Everything stated after the lurid shocking claim is accepted into readers minds as a direct suggestion as TRUE. Everything said to person in trance is TRUE.
Arnie Lerma
See http://www.hypnotism.org/
This also how they did 911, why those who believe that a few guys with box cutters brought down three steel skyscrapers in Manhattan, and blew up the meeting room where project managers and accountants were looking for the 1.6 trillion missing dollars covered in Wash DC newspapers the day before, react just like $cientologists do, when confronted by truth. data embedded into the subconscious is all deemed to be TRUE by default, and takes extreme effort to dislodge. This is what George Bush was talking about when he said "Shock and Awe"
Actually it was 5 if you include buildings 4 and 6.
This is the second of my three-part series that will explore the expanding fault line between the European Union and Russia.
I guess he means between the US and Europe as everyone in Europe now realizes that the meddling in the Ukraine is an American bullshit operation. WTF is the US doing there?
This guy is dumber then dumb.
i followed this until the author said yats wasn't elected as prime minister but porshenko was and Russia invaded ukraine with columns of tanks.
I could let my cat sleep on my keyboard and he would come up with something more accurate.

I still don't know who they are telling the lies for.
The sheeple don't care, and the informed already know the truth,and
the canon fodder will just die as per their orders.
The only question left is what will spark the main event.

Not one genuine photo os a Russian tank column entering Donbass has ever been produced by the west and their dozens of spy satellites.
Because they don't exist. If Russia had invaded the Ukraine, the war would have been over in 2 days, long enough for the Ukie Coup Criminals to bug out.
I read the whole thing as sarcasm....I don't know what's real anymore....
This item is a propaganda piece supporting the current media campaign to demonize Russia and re-ignite the cold war. It is especially obvious when the author blames the Yanukovych police for the deaths in Maidan square when there is plenty of information available which demonstates that that was not the case.
Remember "Fuck the EU!", Nuland.
Should be an interesting meeting. Nuland will come with a carrot and a stick.
I'd like to see Tsipras do a King Leonidas, and kick her into the Pit. Spartan style.
Sorry Tyler: mostly bullshit arcticle.
Agreed. What is even worse, by USSA MSM lapdog standards, this article would be pro russian, LOL>
Reading this I assumed it to be the reprint of a State Department (mis)information handout.
"It is the first civil war that the European continent"
the BS starts here and then goes to here
" Its current descent into anarchy began in November 2013 with the Euromaidan protests, when pro-Western protestors denounced then-president Viktor Yanukovych and demanded closer integration with Europe."
diarhea of words and constipation of thought. lmao
What a boring article ! All the platitudes expressed in mass media over the last year and a half have been collected in one article and served as "insightfull" analysis. Well, it this is the level of analysis that our best & brightest use for their business decisions, no wonder that our economy is in the tank, and our country is bankrupt... Our biggest problem as a nation is that, at this moment in history, our so-called "elites" just plainly suck !
What happened to ZH today? Global warming propaganda and now NATO propaganda? Did someone write a big check that we aren't aware of?
There is a growing concern about the American govt in collusion with UN forces is actively preparing and drilling to GO TO WAR AGAINST THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. Did you comprehend that? Our own govt that we all are paying taxes to IS ACTIVLY PLANNING ON GOING TO WAR AGAINST IT'S OWN PEOPLE!
Let that set in and ponder the real fear this is meant to create. The fact that they are actually putting this horse-carp out all over the net is as audacious as this evil, blatant, done on purpose psy-op to cause fear in the minds of those who simply pursue real truth is. Beyond hubris, but just another cover-up. It is just plain old evil and far far out of hand. Why? Because the crazies are planning on passing an authorization for moar woar in the Ukraine. Whether it comes before, or moar likely AFTER THE NEXT FALSE FLAG EVENT remains to be experienced, or not? There are many irons in the fire, and many are really making those in USA LE very mad.
What's it going to be babylon? Pitting brother against brother in America, like you have done in the Ukraine? FARK YOU bunch of warmongering for profit and population elimination agenda asshats! Everybody WORLD-WIDE KNOWS who you evil banksters are and what you do. THE BABYLONIAN MONEYCHANGERS AND THEIR ILK ARE THE WORLD'S GREATEST ENEMIES. There are so many people you have made angry because of your blatant evil deeds and actions, and now words to boot with these wicked plans to go to war against the People of America, your arse is grarse and the PEOPLE are the lawnmowers that will rise up before you the nano-second after you pull off your next evil deeds. When you give the order to kill innocent Americans, that will be the end of world banksterisim, and those atrociously horrid smelly OLD carkasaureses behind it all. Evil is just bad. Sleep in a peaceful bed, or sleep in the shit show. Choose well.

An interesting scenario from a ZH comment at the link below:
Fri, 03/20/2015 - 13:19 | 5910337 Cloud9.5
“It does not have to be one or the other. It can be both. A systemic failure could trigger ethnic cleansing on a grand scale. While distracted, some foreign power could decide that the domestic chaos could be enhanced by turning the lights out. With the lights out, the gutless wonders in Washington would more than likely invite in peace keepers. Then we would get a taste of our own medicine where the U.N. would come in and restore some semblance of order while turning what is left of the country over to the control of the remaining super power.”

Clear.
Until the USA and Russia are actually shooting each other no one will care.
Its what everyone wants too.
No one liked how the cold war ended. The only thing the human race yearns for is its total annihilation.
To achieve that one need do nothing at all. "Just read from the script" and everything will be fine...
The use of mankind instead of the human race or humankind is more accurate.
Man did not miraculously march out of the animal world and into a human world. Ninety-nine percent are still animals and maybe one percent are human.
That's the reason for governments and wars.
When was the last time "a foreign power sent armored columns of tanks and troop carriers into a neighboring country" and denied that such an event was actually happening?
How about the USA in Cambodia in 1970?
