NATO Conducts Rehearsal For Ukraine Siege: Mapping All NATO Drills Near Russia Since 2014
In the fictional country of Botnia, “Birdman”, the rebel leader, lives in a ramshackle shed in the woods while his separatist troops fight to destabilize a NATO-friendly country from the also fictional town of Alpha, a make-believe rebel stronghold.
Fortunately for peace-loving “Bothnians”, Birdman is captured by Czech and Dutch special forces who, after repelling from attack helicopters, storm his wooden shed under cover of smoke bombs. Meanwhile, the separatists dug in at Alpha are defeated by a wave of Polish tanks assisted by German and Norwegian air cover.
This absurd, yet familiar-sounding plot actually describes the “mission” conducted by NATO’s rapid reaction force in Poland last week. The latest Noble Jump maneuvers come on the heels of similar war games carried out in early April and are designed to ensure that NATO countries can deploy rapidly and fight as one unit to deter what the West calls “Russian aggression.” Here’s more on the “Botnia” siege via Deutsche Welle:
"Birdman" is the name that maneuver planners have given the opponent in the Bothnian enemy camp. He must be retrieved from a wooden house in the middle of the military training grounds in the forest. Stationed in the nearby village of "Alpha" are his followers, armed militiamen, who have begun to destabilize the region in southwestern Poland.
The scene is recognizable as it is loosely based on the situation in eastern Ukraine, except this time, a NATO member has been threatened by "little green men". After all, the planners want to make the situation as lifelike as possible. On command, masked Czech and Dutch Special Forces fast-rope out of US helicopters, throw smoke grenades, storm the wooden house and drag "Birdman" out. Scenes like this are reminiscent of films like "Black Hawk Down" or TV series, such as "Homeland".
Light armored vehicles belonging to Dutch-Czech support units approach, followed by waves of combat helicopters. German and Norwegian jets roar by and we're in the middle of a war film.
The flyover was intended to intimidate and disorient the opponent, as the live battle commentator states – at any rate, the noise is impressive. Marder tanks at the edge of the forest advance with battalion 371, while on the adjacent field, a German-Norwegian unit explodes a mine field. At the same time, Norwegian pioneers set up a mobile bridge so Polish tanks can drive over an anti-tank trench. German "Panthers" on the other side meanwhile shoot armor-piercing grenades at enemy terrain.
A commander's voice heard over army radio communications instructs "Tiger" to move in a southeast direction. "Do you copy?" he asks as a precaution. "Here Tiger, whatever you say, over," replies a voice in English with a Polish accent. The tanks roll across the field.
In a series of exercise maneuvers during the year, the super rapid reaction force is expected to bond and be prepared for battle. Within 48 hours, they must be ready for deployment to a potential conflict zone. The Noble Jump maneuver encompassed 2,100 soldiers, 440 vehicles and 56 tons of ammunition. In total, the rapid spearhead consists of 30,000 soldiers.
The latest NATO war games in Eastern Europe come as the US is set to reconsider how it deals with a resurrgent Russia (effectively "resetting" the infamous Obama "reset" of 2009). Although all signs point to a reinstatment of Cold War "containment" strategies, Defense Secretary Ash Carter is attempting to pitch the stepped up NATO preparedness and the planned stationing of heavy weapons on Russia's borders as a plan for the modern world. Here's more via Reuters:
U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter will urge NATO allies to "dispose of the Cold War playbook" during a trip to Europe this week, as the alliance adapts to a new kind of threat from Russia in the east and Islamic State to the south, U.S. officials said.
Carter heads first to Berlin, where he is expected to call for a more muscular global security role from Germany, Europe's largest economy. Germany remains hesitant to deploy troops abroad, seven decades after the end of World War Two.
"He will encourage Germany, under the firm leadership of the minister of defense, to increase their security role in the world, commensurate with their political and economic weight," a senior U.S. defense official said, speaking on condition of anonymity.
Relations between Moscow and the West have plunged to a post-Cold War low since Russia annexed Ukraine's Crimea region. NATO says Russian is still actively providing military support for separatists in eastern Ukraine, despite Moscow's denials.
U.S. officials say Ukraine has illustrated the importance of being able to counter "hybrid warfare," the blend of unidentified troops, propaganda and economic pressure that the west says Russia has used there. NATO's historic focus had been the conventional threats of the Cold War, which ended in 1991.
"Carter ... will really push the alliance to think about new threats, new techniques, urge them to kind of dispose of the Cold War playbook and think about new ways to counter new threats," the official said.
In visits in Germany and then in Estonia, Carter will get a first-hand look at NATO's new rapid response forces and climb aboard a U.S. warship fresh from Baltic Sea drills, aiming to reassure allies unnerved by Russia's intervention in Ukraine.
Carter will likely offer details on plans to pre-position heavy military equipment in Europe, the official said.
In other words, Washington is attempting to prepare its allies — especially regional powers like Germany — for the possibility of war with Russia in the event Moscow's 'expansionist' tendencies spread beyond Ukraine. This latest push by the Pentagon comes as Russian assets were seized in Belgium, France, and Austria in connection with Moscow's unwillingness to comply with what it deems an unjust ruling in The Hague and is also set against the backdrop of the slow motion disintegration of the Minsk ceasefire.
Don't expect Russia to overlook the similarities between the make-believe conflict in fictional Botnia and the very real civil war in Ukraine.

The Nobel Prize Winner conveniently forgets that he started the destabilization of Ukraine spending over $5 billion and causing a civil war. Besides, he has bombed 7 Muslim countries and continues his droning even as some estimates show that 98% of casualties are civilian.
But the free and fair press of the West calls Putin a depraved"mass-murderer."
Forward - to more lies and more wars.

Predator Drone Strikes: 50 Civilians Are Killed For Every 1 Terrorist, and the CIA Only Wants to Up Drone Warfarehttp://mic.com/articles/16949/predator-drone-strikes-50-civilians-are-ki...
Since the beginning of the week, the three most influential mass circulation newsmagazines of the United States, Britain, and Germany—Time, The Economist, and Der Spiegel—have published cover stories that combine wild accusations against Vladimir Putin with demands for a showdown with Russia.
The most striking and obvious characteristic of these cover stories is that they are virtually identical. The CIA has scripted them all. The stories employ the same insults and the same fabrications. They denounce Putin’s “web of lies.” The Russian president is portrayed as a “depraved” mass murderer.

He's a puppet. A muppet for the Soros.
He has always been a puppet.
Obama's first job out of college was working for a CIA front company, Business International Corporation. But he conveniently forgot to mention that is his 450 page autobiography "Dreams from My Father."
http://www.boilingfrogspost.com/2012/07/05/barack-obama-his-mother-and-t...
"Dreams of my Father." HA!
If only Obama had been a 'Wet' dream of his Father's maybe thousands of people globally wouldn't have to of died for his stupid (Nobel-peace-prize-winning) wars and drone strikes.
Is it too late to have him aborted?
Is fifty something just late term ?
So, as a slightly obtuse view, what is being pincered is not Russia but the EU!
Look:
1) Greece: In Deep Trouble, Spain : In deep trouble, Italy : Been tottering for the longest time, Turkey : ODDBALL NATION IN ABOUT FIFTY RESPECTS AT THE MINUMIM.....
So, Southern and southern bordering nations of the EU is a giant fricking mess.
The heart of Eurpoe was pierced long ago with immigration, both legal and illegal and the consistent pigeon-holing, under-educating, drug pushing, barrio and ghetto living conditions for them.....time bomb....
Everything the UK touches is poisoned, just by assosiation...people FUCKED HARD, royalty just fine.
Gas suppy is a major issue, the winter is not too far the way time has accelerated.
And now, the north-eastern part is literally and figuratively aflame.
Ringfenced by created hot zones, impregnated with US bases, nukes......
So, unless the Eu finds a quick answer to it's socio economic issues, it can be thrown into flames so easily.
Like they do here in India, a couple of dead pigs in a mosque, a slaughtered cow in front of a temple and suddenly old neighbours are at each other's throats.
Neither the Eu nor the completely socialist USSA will last too long in a conventional war. Their core is deeply rotten....
This is perhaps a Russo-Chinese master-stroke.
Greece is the red herring...
...Europe will quite suddenly drop America as ally....reclaim all the US bases, then take the Nato weaponry and aim it at America.
Now that would be somethign crazy to behold, but their is the little issue of all those US service men and women manniing and womanning said bases?
how difficult would it be to blockade such a base ? Cutting off water, electricity, food, oil, internet...
Me thinks these bases are in large part still there because France tolerates them being there, and Germany is committed to European unity. Less so because of the people that defend them...Most likely, if and when the EU says "get the fuck out", that is what it will be.
note : again another vote while I was still editing, sorry guys, am slow in English
NATO should worry more about picking a fight with someone who punches back instead of a bunch of ragheads in caves.
Berlin wouldn't last 3 days in a conflict if several major airports were hit with conventional cruise missiles and a few container ships sunk near Hamburg.
France woudl surrender the minute Germany was hit.
Poland would see Warsaw pancaked again and be done in 1 week.
And the brave Brits? Once they start seeing their navy go tits up in the North Sea they will be begging for peace.
Oh, and the US? Let's see the Almighty Kenyan Emperor re-instute a draft for 18-39 year olds and see how long he can fight.
NATO is nothing more than enforcement arm for the the Fed, BoE, SNB, and ECB. Cut their military capabilities in half and they become a paper tiger or leader of a nuclear war induced suicide pact.
Neocons are about the only thing I've found that makes me want to believe in religion . . . so that all those miserable fu<kers can go to hell.
NATO troops are there so they can protect their coup. This is a huge landgrab by the EU USSA. The Ukes don't realize it but its obvious they are not in charge. Foreigners in their govt with dual passports justt like here.
GOD knows that in the heart of NATO troops live cowardice.
In the heart of Russians lives The Lion.
nice one Goebbels
I wish we cold invent the Hell - connect all these bastards to a Matrix kind of system, keep their bodies & minds alive forever and inject into their minds a reality inspired from Dante's vision of the Inferno. This should become the criminals for-life new punishment and leave at the freedom & fun of the public the possibility to create new nightmarish excruciating damnations ... :)
Eyes rolling....
let us know when your brain catch up to them...
Er what navy...didn't think we Brits have one..
You mean the bases that are all "gun-free" zones and believe they own the place?
If you did it in one fell swoop, you could take over all US bases across europe with relatively few men...hypothetically
then put them on boats and ship them to NYC.... i mean i don't have military training and i could figure this out easily
But first Europe becomes The Northern Part of the Middle East. Salaam.
That's not going to happen ever. It is something which Russia will not permit, there are gazillion reasons why, some deep rooted in the history, some cultural&social and some economical - so sleep at peace on this one, in the worse case scenario Russia will wipe all the allah worshiping turban bearers who nested north of the Mediterranean Sea, yeah is not going to be different than world war 2 for europe but will be better than living in a sharia-law lead caliphate.
I think you have your facts wrong. Russia itself is inundated with muzzies.
Moscow has a muzzie problem.
if you think native slavic Russians will not stand when the case will be against militant Islam you are delusional.
LX.I:
Might be the final outcome, but the Frogs gonna' have 2 come up with a modern Charles Martel and the Jesuits will have to polish off the old techniques. That is the Long War and with multi-cultural "leaders" there is plenty of work to be done.

To the naysayers - I know it is so hard to swallow & digest it, but u'll just have to face-it. Medievalism practiced in it's 2.0 form by Murica or it's Islamic version will come to an end and it will come at the hands of the ones who lead secular progressive thinking trough centuries, the ones who understand humanity behind seeing people as cattle of some aristocratic class - either economical or clerical. And it will be a fucking epic cleanup, a cleanup of such proportions that the epic stories of the history will pale against. If it will be hard and ugly - yes, it will be damn hard, bloody and ugly but the scum will be gone trough the history's toilet.
I think you meant "Shalom".
All part of a zionist plan to dilute the White gene pool.
y3maxx, Europe is not close to a monolith.
... er ... NATO, like the Pope, has no Divisions.
Plenty of "Divisiveness" in NATO (military "divisions", not so much)
USSA is marching towards a heroic suicidal exitus, the american neo-aristocracy knows their time counted-down as world's top-dogs and now they prefer to burn the world to ashes than handling it back to the people. There is no sane mind on this planet knowing a minimum of history and current international economic-political context who would give the smallest nano-metric chance to Murica to win against the sino-russian alliance, in the best case scenario Europe and the Middle and Far East will be burned to ashes, at the worst the whole northern hemisphere will become a radioactive oblivion. I don't think by any chance that Merkel & Hollande are not aware of this situation so either they got assured that they will be relocated in some bunkers outside of Europe or they will do whatever it takes to stop this escalation. The real problem are the East European countries, the new Nato allies who would do whatever it takes to serve & please their master as due to the corruption reigning there their political moves will be very easy to be influenced even if the choices would be clearly endangering critically the regular citizens in case of a conflict with the much too close Russia.
Anyone in Amerika aka Trayvonville who allows their kid to join the Z-Military run by Z-Soros and Z-Nudelman is an idiot. If your kid comes home in a pine box, he or she will have died for the z-oligarchs.
At this point, I think the "farmers" and "miners" of DPR and LPR could kick ZATO's arse. In the first battle, half of ZATO would flee looking for a bathhouse.

I'm just waiting for NATO to send its 1st transgender division of Caitlyns, Chelseas and Conchitas into battle.
Heard rumors Caitlyn Jenner got its new trany exo-skeleton, and the rank of trany-in-chief of the new legions meant to disrupt hormonally the sino-russian infantry.
WTF?
You're linking from a website promoting global socialism, an unrelated article, from July last year?
You prefer something new from Time, The Economist, and Der Spiegel? As freshly scripted by the CIA?
All those promote global capitalism as you apparently prefer. And so they must be far more truthful.
You could just try something topical, and current, and keep your preferred ism fettish to yourself.
Quoting from a source does not mean that you endorse its political viewpoints. People with IQs higher than room temperature know that.
What could be more topical than the CIA scripting false stories in "free and fair" Western media to demonize Putin to make it easier to start a war with Russia?
So you chose to NOT quote or link those stores, after verbaling them, and to post some load of old crap from last year about another subject?
Fuck off.
A very good effort given your IQ. Congratulations. Keep reading Time, the Economist and Der Spiegel.
WSWS can only print lies even as it does not accept any advertising.
Apparently, you have assigned yourself the arbitrator of truth in media. And that of a creative lexicographer introducing words like "verbaling."
WTF happened to you? I used to agree with you 99% of the time at least. Have never downvoted you in my life. Not even today.
Just plain jousting with words. No offense ever intended.
"A very good effort given your IQ."
It is really more fun if you engage other peoples ideas, rather than attacking people themselves.
Let me give you some free advice : every person, however stupid, knows things that you do not know and could benefit to know. The onus is on you to discover what that knowledge is. Just try it with everybody you meet. You could learn a lot more than when you are treating others like "idiots". ( I can do better in this regard myself )
A little bit of creative jousting with words never hurts me. But if it does anyone, I apologize for my conduct.
The ad hominem attack just weakens your non-existent reasoning, assface.
See how that works?
;-) Ned
JustObserving - I'm a big fan of your posts, but come on, get a clue. You are not going to have any kind of normal debate with a pair of Zionist ideologues. They are only here to eat your lunch and are never going to waiver, one iota from their ideological mission.
Learn how to jab and throw the haymaker. No more of this whimpering "Gee element, you never got a downvote from me and now you give me a bloody nose."
element, like several other names I can come up with quickly has always been a tool here. You should have been downvoting him, heavily and often. Now get back in there and know who you are dealing with.
Pootie called, asking about you, said you were late for an appointment with him.
Junks just break my heart, truely upsetting. LOL :D
"WTF happened to you"?...
A subject near & dear to the heart is what happened ---- and the mask came off, that's all...
Don't you have a fellatio appointment with pootie to attend to?
The perverse sexual smear is a standard zino ad hominem technique when no adequate zino argument exists. Its interesting to see that they all do it. Makes me wonder why. Is it nuture? nature? Maybe its part of their training? Maybe GIYUS and MegaPhone have guidelines encouraging this?
One other thing. The zinos are out in force on this thread. George Soros putting taxpayer money to work. All the goofballs are here. Obviously, the thread topic is content they feel is important to steer.
If I showed you my foreskin, would you want more? NO. I will not allow you to suck on it like some damned pootie stick, you filthy bastard.
Not a single thing or smear you made above about my reading habits or views is in any way remotely close to correct. And of course you would know shit about that, so why did you insist that is what I do? So a 'fuck off' is in order, and not withdrawn.
There is nothing 'wrong' with me, I have not changed 1 iota. But if you are going to discuss a topic, and provide a link right under it, I do expect the link to be relevant and not something else entirely, of no interest at all.
And yes, you verbaled the articles, and then did not even provide a link or any example of how they were what you said they were, so I merely wished to read them to see what you were saying, and you apparently don't want anyone to, so you instead derailed with a link to a load of old socialist campaign bollocks, on another topic from a year ago!
Like I said ... WHAT THE FUCK?! ... who does that?
And if anything had been remotely close to correct, you would admit it here? Yawn.
How about you simply point out what the other poster had mishandled, in your opinion, and stop short of going all ballistic and basically demanding a public excuse by that poster.
Well if he would have just posted a link, both you and I and anyone else would have some idea what the hell he is talking about, and claiming. But yes, you're right, it's my bad for expecting that. It's just that when people want to expose something dodgy, they tend to supply the relevant evidence of it, and not just the asserted claim, and a derailing link to change the subject away from there being no evidence offered regarding the prior scathing claim. But I guess that's how you roll. But I have this very annoying tendency of reality checking stuff. I know, I know, it's a really baaaad habit, but I'm just not going to change.
The "other" JO used to be one of my favorites, a couple of days ago when I looked a post every 20 to 40 mins during working hours, and "first poster" quite often these days. Close to being classified as "paid".
But I have this very annoying tendency of reality checking
Totally agree. And "link graveyards" a la GW also don't provide any real added value, it's more in a Startship Troopers "Do you want to know more?" way.
But if you criticize, please make it clear which link(s) you are criticizing and for what reason exactly. That way for the people that somewhat trust your reality checking it provides some value.
So basically; any claim will do, just hold the evidence, hate that shit.
Yeah, try that just about anywhere, doing anything, and see how far you get. :D
yup like quoting wikipedia as a reliable source is a wise thing to do .
I believe the CIA could well control Putin. In that case, if Putin deviates from script, he goes.
You believe Times, the Economist, etc. are black CIA propaganda. Ever entertained the thought that black propaganda might distort reality a lot more than you think ? (like demonizing a friend with a certain purpose)
Let me help you with a theory : how do you think an oligarchy came to power in Russia and can remain in power ? Right, likely with outside support. Support from the side that would regard a union between EU and Russia a geopolitical disaster as it would threaten its hegemony. So the deal could be a simple one : you keep a fucking distance from the EU, and you and your 110 billionaire cronies can really enjoy life, at the expense of the common Russians.
Putin, in such a case, is a prisoner I almost feel sorry for.
who let american oligarchy to live i and stay in powertill now ? Rubbish claims .
good question. But US still not comparable to Russia in many respects I think : semblance of democracy, freedom of speech, civil society, generally much richer and developed country. But US is certainly heading in that direction and if the course is not reversed could well witness a revolution of sorts.
From https://en.wikipedia.org/?title=Oligarchy :
A report by Credit Suisse in 2013 states that: Russia has the highest level of wealth inequality in the world, apart from small Caribbean nations with resident billionaires. Worldwide, there is one billionaire for every US$170 billion in household wealth; Russia has one for every US$11 billion. Worldwide, billionaires collectively account for 1–2% of total household wealth; in Russia today 110 billionaires own 35% of all wealth.
Anybody got figures on US to compare ?
what you are saying is not correct . Russia is a democratic country after soviet union disintegration . Russia is far mpre democratic thaussa . Unlile ussa where they have only 2 partues russia has more than 2 parties . Freedom of Speech is there in Russia also but not in ussa lately . Remember an i dian republican was areested over making a movie on oBama . Wikipedia isnt a reliable source . Their info and numbers had beefound wrong many times . Wealth Inequality is noq pretty much evident in usa also . Trickle down economics working so fine for them . rest i dont know how much wealth ineuality is there in RF.
Because Pooty-Poot's behavior towards the muslims in Chechnya is so different?
An oligarch is an oligarch, no matter the latitude or longtitude.
Have you seen Grozny lately?
Looks a damn sight better than Baghdad.

It is abundantly clear that all of those slamming the US and NATO capabilities have NO CLUE WHATSOEVER about the topic. If you chairborne

Are you suggesting ZATO can actually win a direct conflict with Russia, esp in continental Europe? LOL
ukraine is a breadbasket of europe, oh those elites.
Bread just makes you fat...
The lands of Ukraine were the breadbasket of Europe, but that was centuries ago when they were still part of the Polish Lithuanian Commonwealth.
It could be again, if farming was managed correctly.
If NATO corporations steal the farmland, it will be again.
It will not improve the lives of Ukrainians as foreign interests will be the only ones who benefit.
Your definition of "correctly" needs serious work.
Monsanto is never correctly...

that is the european slaughterhouse for centuries.
totally stupid to fight for it.
Idiot EU leaders are blind and clueless the US empire of chaos is setting them up for a war against Russia.
That's correct, because the tribe wants to end the white race, and bring the world into Armagheddon!!!

Euro-Pussies aren't ready for a fist fight in a downtown European city to stop "asylum seekers" from raping their women and daughters. There's no fucking way you'll get anyone West of Poland to send their 1 son off to fight anyone. What a joke.
What are the barren old women of Germany going to do? Send their small dogs off into combat?
As a former military man, I say one thing to you:
Just put your hand on a gun and pull the trigger if my family is in danger.
Government is not my family.
The Chinese & Russian women aren't afraid to pull the trigger, so Euro-pussies better learn to get mean real fast, or it will be too bad for them, unfortunately...
The Euro-elite should have thought about that before they started raping & pillaging poor countries & siezing foreign asset.
(Enjoy your water-cannons, bean bags, pepper spray, tasers, riot gas, and police brutality at your vehement protest)
If you look at European history you know that the instinct is there just below the surface.
Wthen they snap there will be hell.
They have been brainwashed by bullshit inclusion propaganda.
Those with internationalist power elite hate nationalism because it is a impediment to their rule.
It is why nationalism has been attacked. Patriotism has been attacked.
They flood the countries with incomparable human garbage from outside the continent to destroy them.
There will be a snapping point and then they will be horrified how the Europeans are killing the invaders.

Russia absolutely MUST have its Financial Nuclear Option planned out and ready to use at a moment's notice: The "Gold-for-Hydrocarbons" program.
It is an economic-monetary program, whereby you have an Exchange-in-Kind of real assets vs real assets, that must be used when fraudulent fiat currency is being used to 'buy' (steal) real assets.
No more Fraud-for-Energy! If Russia/Putin is unable or unwilling to use this Measure in time, using it in a panic will be too late, because it will be seen as a desperation move (played out of weakness, not strength).
If Russia's CB and/or its oil execs are opposed to this, they are part of the problem, not part of the solution. Time to get the 5th Column Zi'Borg moles dug up and terminated, as National Security interests trump shareholder or oligarch interests. Especially if one of those Oligarchs is ex-con Zionist Kordokovsky, who sold his shares to Jacob Rothschild.
Kirk: Russia absolutely MUST have its Financial Nuclear Option planned.
Actually Putin already told us what he was going to do. It took "the snowdens" 72 days to download all of NSA's files at broadband speed. Putin said he was going to release every last file.
Do you have a source to back up your extraordinary claim?
Down arrow for asking for a source? lol
jezus, did francis die and reincarnate as kirk? You seem to have a hard on for ZiBorgs and BRICs these days? Don't take Jim Willey so seriously, he's quite the imaginative fruitcake for most of the time, something he readily admits to too, so at least he's humble and healthy about it. But going all in on his, stuff, is going all in on a series of serial speculations, and virtually nothing else.
element, I have NO beef with Judaism or even Israelis as a whole. I have, in fact Israeli and US-Jewish friends -- all of who are anti-Zionists.
My beef is with Zionists -- whether they are 'Jewish', 'Neocons', Anglos, or some flavor or 'Christianity'. For the one simple reason that they are Global Imperialists.
As such, I see no similarity with Francis, who seemed to have a problem with 'Jews'. Hope this helps.
Nonetheless, I am taking a break from ZH, as I've been on here too often, and I need to "live life". Kirk out.
Understood Kirk, my apologies, I regularly give it a swerve for awhile for the same reason. Have some fun, see you when you get back.
Kirk, Jack Burton and Latin Lover are good people, I have great respect and always read carefully what they write.
I'm not putting down others but have intellectual affinities with these two brothers.

It is this version of the exchange of gold for hydrocarbons, is preparing in Russia and China right now. Russian media write about it openly:

The Germans should refuse to withdraw from Poland until Prussia is returned.
Returned by whom? Russia, Lithuania or Poland? All three?
The Germans killed off most of the original Prussians and took over their name and lands.
"The Germans killed off most of the original Prussians and took over their name and lands."
The above is partially true as there was no Germany when mostly Germanic Teutonic Knights (also Poles to some extent) killed off most of the original Prussians who were Balts, like present day Lithuanians and Latvians. Some Baltic Prussians who escaped the extermination were assimilated into Germanic culture.
Countries without true governments can't do squat except get everyone killed. Money not only corrupts politicians but it pays for crappy service. Mercenaries can't defeat real govenment militaries that protect national identity.

AD 2015, Caucasians constitute only 8% of the world population. They were over 25% just 100 years ago. Only 2% of the current world population are white women at child bearing age. Draw your own conclusions about the not so distant future (if there is any) of the white race. The pending WW3 will only speed up the process of our (pre-planned I might say) extinction. Interestingly, Russia and the countries of Eastern Europe are arguably the most 'whitey' areas of the world at this time.
What is a 'true government'?
All an elaborate show to present NATO aggression as defense.
and that is all it is.
Too little, to late. If they go into THE UKRAINE they will never get out and the cost will bankrupt anyone involved.. Jst like Iraq, but 10 times worse. Every 5th soldier will come home with AIDS.
Lol. You really don't want to see the russian Aids number. Closing in on 1% percent of the total population. 50% jump in last 5 years. I used to think that vodka will get them. No amigo. That country is royally fucked.
if it is royally fucked, then why not just back off and let it die before (re)starting the plunder?
Putin is mighty patient...
He keeps RE-acting, instead of Acting on a Proactive basis.
Which brings into question a while host of things, as to what's really going on in the Kremlin.
Note: Acting=Control. Reacting=Appearance of Control. Big difference.
Spot on. But also that is bit too much truth for this GRU psy-ops propaganda website and the assorted Putintards that frequent it.
You see, everybody, this whole war started when he hit me back.
alinsky book now required reading at CIA
what better palce for commies to hide out than at a libertarian / austrian econ website?
those trickie KBBers! imagine that, attackig trotskyite neocons from ZH (and their running dog dupes).
It's not that simple. Russia is excersizing damage control because they don't NEED war. The beneficiary of armed conflicts is the WEST because they can loot, impose regimes and altering political realities. Russia, on the other hand, can't and won't bear the cost of world transformation which is already happening, all they have to do is wait for the imminent implosion of western economies. In other words west is in panic mode not Kremlin.
Let NATO do all the silly monkey dance posturing it wants.

Which makes me think that Putin is not really interested in anything except eastern Ukraine and a land route to his naval base. In fact, if the Noble Nobel Winner would slice off eastern Ukraine (which already voted to separate), it would trigger huge Russian investment in Eastern Ukraine - actually benefitting both Eastern and Western Ukraine, plus let Western Ukraine re-direct spending from defense to its own economy.
But then again, that would limit the sales of US weapons to Ukraine...

it's the end of the world as we know it
{and I feel a little hungover}
Putin said he would preemt any potiential attacks. Good bye NATO
Putin said he wold use nukes. Probably strategic hits and all us missile sites.
These psychopaths are going to get a lot of people killed. And a lot of area will glow in the dark for a long time.
Let them trust and obey their affirmatively chosen Commander-in-Chief. Are they ready to die for his glory?
"Dreams from my real father !" .... a film by Joel Gilbert
You won't be seeing the Joel Gilbert movie at Sundance that is for sure. Highly recommend anyone who hates (or loves) Obama see this. Once you see it, the curtain is revealed and everything will 'click' into place. http://www.joelgilbert.net/
If the BRIICS cannot excise the Zi'Borgs out of Europe, so that normal economic ties can develop in Eurasia, then there is NO alternative but to front-run these Parasites and Usurpers to Total Economic and Monetary War, because...
The Zi'Borgs are doing that exact thing to the BRIICS. Time to get real and get cracking, BRIICS. Time is NOT on your side, in spite of what you may think, or what sugar-coated crap you've been told.
You need to 1. Have your currencies officially backed by Hydrocarbons (Oil, Gas) and Gold, and 2. You need an International Trade Deal, fast-tracked to counter the 3 Trade Deals the US and its Zi'Borgs are enacting. No time for laggards. This is now a foot-race to the Finish Line. [tick tock]
Cannon Fodder for the Bankers.
Very important sentence! +100
Indeed, with American Public education getting ahold of kids at age 5. The American media getting control at around age 2. In this situation of full spectrum propaganda, Washington and it's Banker masters can and will get the Cannon Fodder all ginned up for war. The waves of youth unemployment raging through age 18-30, also gives the Washington elites a ready supply of desperate kids. When you can sign up for a life of total security in the military, and escape poverty, unemployment and a dead end life, the Washington elites can always get the cannon fodder they need. They helped me escape a dead end town, dead end job market and just plain living death in rural America. If they could get me, they can get anyone.
Someone said recently that Americans now do really live inside a MATRIX. With no media other than government media, with government control of kids lives and minds through so called Public Education. Notice how kids can't read, do maths, speak a foreign language, can't write, but excell at sports and video games, there we have perfect cannon fodder material.
Problem with this MATRIX analogy is that we all live in one matrix or another, and always will. No man is an island. You do not only live for yourself. You live in a certain social context where certain values reign, and somehow limit you. The idea of total freedom is nonsense
Washington must know summat bad is gonna happen anytime soon with the USD, economy or markets and is now panicked into provoking a major distraction. If only the Ukrainees knew what suckers they are...
Sheeples are getting restless, that's for sure:
Seventeen shot, one killed, in U.S. block parties - reportsA gunman armed with a shotgun opened fire on a block party in Philadelphia on Saturday, injuring seven people including three children, media reported, after 10 people were shot in Detroit, one fatally.
http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/crime/seventeen-shot-one-killed-in-us-bloc...
I don't know if they were 'pa-tees' or 'parties.'
Don't look at me; I'm still looking for those two escappes from the Clinton House of Correction. I hear they're heavily armed ... with a power drill, hacksaw and welding torch.
What race was the shooter? The victims? We may be seeing the ramp-up of Bath House Barry's Race War scheme.
I read those articles and they don't mention the race ... so draw your own conclusions.
OMG: make sure they don't have a chainsaw(!)
The Washington rush to war is probably based on what you say. With collapse imminent, a war could and would change everything for the power elites. With martial law at home and the need for millions of soldiers, the home front can be suppressed. The hope is both Europe and Russia are the field of battle, and like 1945, both end up in total destruction.
European leades are mostly agents of Washington, otherwise they would not cooperate in a coming war that will devestate their homelands, and leave Washington untouched and the supreme economic and military power after the war. Just like 1945.
That's a nicely articulated script Jack. Seems to fit exactly with how Washington plans things.
"and leave Washington untouched and the supreme economic and military power after the war. Just like 1945."
wishful thinking
the ussa is toast this time.
sorry dreamers.
you're not playing with towelheads anymore
Did NATO take into account a few Iskander-M's being launched into its staging areas just outside of Botnia?
That's what Iskander was built for. The Georgian elite tank regiment in 2008 was in it's base, forming up to leave for the battle front. In an instant, several Iskander detonated above the heads of the troops and tanks. The result was the end of the regiment, they never arrived to the battle field. While this Iskander use was confirmed at the time, it is getting harder and harder to access the information, someone is scrubing the internet of any trace of it. For good reason.
I'd like to the world to know, as well as the NSA that I do not offer any support for the criminal/terrorist government that has seized power in the United States. Nor will I do anything to assist them in any way.
I don't believe that the common people of the United States support these criminals any more than an honest person would support a thief or bully. It's just that they have ALL of the power now and we cannot make change one person at a time, so we are subjugated and divided, just what they want in us.....so please...don't hate Americans, hate the same Amerika we all hate as well......Washington DC and the Wall Street Minions of the Military Industrial Complex.
I really think it's over for freedom. How sad....
"Honest" people support thieves and bullies through their apathy every day. Many Americans are even more complicit, because they've been bought off with Medicare D and EBT, if they aren't working for companies with no-bid billion dollar contracts to spy on Americans or get them killed overseas.
They've also got a serious case of Stockholm Syndrome, since they tend to idolize the very assholes that are hollowing them out from the inside.
Voting for the R or D is support.
Not voting is support by complicity.
If people voted for the fringe3rd parties that would be a form of resistance.
There are enough other choices out there.
That is my view. We should all vote for 3rd parties instead of the Clinton's Bush ticket.
On the federal level is there any proof that voting does anything constructive?
It takes more than boycotting elections to wash the blood from our respective hands...
"Although Christians are exhorted to abandon the Harlot now, partly because quiet submission is tacit support...It's clear that the final destruction comes after the remaining Christians are removed from this world (even though):"
Rev 18 v4 And I heard another voice from heaven saying, "Come out of her, my people, lest you share in her sins, and lest you receive of her plagues. 5 For her sins have reached to heaven, and God has remembered her iniquities.
if you read the context and passage carefully you'll find the exhortation to 'get out' of is focused on false religion. ancient babylon was the origin of these religions with connections though history right down to our day.
that is why later in the passage governments (kings) and big business (travelling merchants) are mentioned as separate entities bewailing the fate of their former 'lover'.
especially culpable is christendom as the leading part of this babylon the great. this christendom that has been in bed with politics and business for centuries even fomenting war and profiting from such.
Everything you said is true, just not all of the truth. The passage quoted specifically describes a city, in all probability NYC as it fits the rest of the description.
The whore (Zionist-Anglo-American-empire) rides (controls) the 'beast', Al-CIA-da, ISIS, etc, but they will turn and destroy the whore.
And not for a while, but USSA is in for some bloody nose in the meantime.
Jehovah's Witness (Amraphel) argues with Jonathan Cahn believer (gonetogalt).
Both woefully misled, refusing to read the Bible to find out what it actually teaches.
Babylon the Great is the Financial System.
Proof:
Identifying Babylon the Great
There are obvious clues to interpreting the identity of Babylon the Great given in Revelation chapter 18- clues that don't line up with either of your flawed interpretations:
“The kings of the earth committed adultery with her”
What entity has committed adultery with the kings of the earth? Religion, Zionist-Anglo-American-empire, or the Financial System?
“the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries.”
What entity has enabled the merchants of the earth to grow rich? Religion, Zionist-Anglo-American-empire, or the Financial System?
“where all who had ships on the sea became rich through her wealth!”
What entity has enabled the transportation industry to grow rich? Religion, Zionist-Anglo-American-empire, or the Financial System?
“your merchants were the world’s great men”
What entity has enabled the merchants to become “great men?” Religion, Zionist-Anglo-American-empire, or the Financial System?
“By your magic spell all the nations were led astray”
What’s the greatest spell that has ever been used on mankind? Religion, Zionist-Anglo-American-empire, or Fiat currency, fractional reserve banking, derivatives, stocks, bonds, etc?
“When the kings of the earth who committed adultery with her and shared her luxury”
What “luxury” does Religion have? What “luxury” does the Zionist-Anglo-American-empire have? Very little compared to the Financial System.
Now, ask yourself- What “luxury” does the global financial system have? More than anyone else!
The identity of Babylon the Great, the Great Whore who rides upon the backs of the Kings of the Earth is clearly not false Religion, nor is it the Zionist-Anglo-American-empire- it’s obviously the global financial system.
PS- Look at ALL the clues. The answer is obvious.
Yea, because starting another stupid fucking war and sticking our nose where it does not belong (again) is such a good idea.
No doubt the Polish horse cavalry with waving swords will play a major role in scripted manuevers meant to frighten Rebel forces into vacating Donetsk, Donbas and Russia ceding Crimea. Looney Tunes costing EU lots of wasted resources and business with Russia. Essentially we are at an impass with niether side willing to give up territory without a fight and both sides reluctant to finance an all out war/occupation. Therefore a stalemate with lots of bombastic nonsense.
"Super Rapid Reaction Force". It makes me cringe with embarrassment the infantile nature of puffed up propagandists who come up with these names. Look daddy, this reaction force isn't ordinary. No, it's SUPER.

First time I heard the words, "European External Action Service", in about 2009, it came across as the most Orwellian State agency I'd ever heard of, right up there with the Ministry of Love and the Ministry of Truth.
Any country in E Europe housing US/NATO weapons is going to targeted by Russian tactical nuclear weapons. The EU is going to be ground zero in any war between the US & Russia. Is this what people in the EU want?
Russians and others have been using mobile anti-tank and anti-air weapons effectively I believe, I don't think they will have to use the nuclear option right away. They are playing for time.
NATOs. I hate NATOs.
It's ZATO.
errrr...why are they showing off their plan and organization right out in front of the Russians on their doorstep?
"Don't call my bluff!"
