Russian President Vladimir Putin has ordered an urgent military drill to test the combat readiness of the armed forces across western and central Russia. The drill included troops dealing with mock security and terrorist threats.

The surprise drill tested ground troops, Air Force, airborne troops and aerospace defense, according to Russia's Defense Minister, Sergey Shoigu.

Putin ordered to "test combat readiness of troops in dealing with crisis situations that threaten the military security of the country, as well as with antiterrorist, sanitary and epidemiological, or technogenic situations," Shoigu said.

According to the Defense Minister, the drill, which started at 14:00 GMT, will be held from February 26 until March 3 in two stages. The second stage involves an opposing-force exercise with the participation of Russia's Northern and Baltic fleet and bomb strike drills.

Comment: Putin has learned not to trust the Western leaders. The deal that the Ukrainian president made with the opposition and some EU leaders were violated before the ink was dry. The Georgian war in 2008 was also only stopped due to the preparedness of the Russian troops.

The West has since the fall of the Soviet Union grossly violated the agreements that it signed with Gorbachev and has had no respect for Russian strategic interests. So Putin is justified in being on guard.

Stepan Bandera's Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists encouraged locals to 'destroy' Jews and Poles in the 1940s

About 15,000 people marched through Kiev on Wednesday night to honor Stepan Bandera, glorified by some as a leader of Ukraine's liberation movement and dismissed by others as a Nazi collaborator.

The march was held in Ukraine's capital on what would have been Bandera's 105th birthday, and many of the celebrants carried torches.

Some wore the uniform of a Ukrainian division of the German army during World War II. Others chanted "Ukraine above all!" and "Bandera, come and bring order!"

However, many of Bandera's followers sought to play down his collaboration with the Germans in the fight for Ukraine's independence as the leader of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists, Ukraine's foremost nationalist organization in the first half of the 20th century.

'Our terrorists': U.S. removes Syria's al-Nusra Front leader from terror list

The United States has removed the al-Qaeda linked al-Nusra Front militant group in Syria from its blacklist of most wanted terrorist organizations, a report says.

The US Justice Department removed Abu Mohammad al-Julani, head of the al-Nusra Front, the branch of al-Qaeda fighting against President Bashar al-Assad in Syria, from its most wanted terrorist list, the report said.

In December 2013, Washington blacklisted the Al-Nusra Front for taking responsibility for most of the terrorist bombings in Syria.

Foreign-sponsored militancy in Syria, which erupted in March 2011, has claimed the lives of many people, including large numbers of Syrian soldiers and security personnel.

The West has been widely criticized for its double standards when it comes to dealing with terrorist groups.

While al-Qaeda-linked groups have been listed as terrorist entities under sanctions by the United Nations, militants in Syria, including those belonging to al-Nusra Front, have been receiving all forms of support from the West.

Al-Nusra Front has been behind many of the deadly bombings targeting both civilians and government institutions across Syria since the beginning of the violence.

More than 100,000 people have been killed since the beginning of the conflict in Syria. The prolonged militancy has also forced millions of Syrians to flee their homes.

Comment: Al-Nusra and Al-Qaeda are both Western creations to justify aggressive foreign invasions in the name of fighting terrorism and also serves as convenient mercenary forces to create instability in independent countries, where regime change is desired.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel and Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu were captured Tuesday in a very unfortunate pose.

The frozen-in-time image of Netanyahu's finger casting a Hitler mustache-like shadow over Merkel's face is so unfortunate that all of Israel is apparently "talking about [it] right now," according to i24 News' Julien Bahloul.

In another complete embarrassment of the loser picked by the United States, Lebanon's Beirut Arab University officials have announced that the university degree of the head of the so-called Syrian National Coalition is FAKE!

Dismissing the claims that Ahmad Jarba has graduated from Beirut Arab University, the officials revealed that Jabra's degree is bogus and he has never received any degree in Political Science or Law from the university.

The scandal broke as Mohammad Qasem, dean of the Political Science Faculty, and Amro Jalal al-Advi, head of the university, in a letter have disclosed that Jabra's academic documents had not been issued by the Lebanese university.

The UK has spent over $8 million on monitoring the Ecuadorian Embassy in London, where Julian Assange has been holed up for 20 months. His stay is having a knock-on effect on British taxpayers, reportedly costing them over $16,000 a day.

In response to a Freedom of Information request filed by the Huffington Post UK, the London Metropolitan Police revealed the financial consequences of Assange's stay in the Ecuadorian Embassy. The WikiLeaks founder entered the Embassy in June 2012 in a desperate plea to avoid his extradition to Sweden, where he is wanted for questioning over accusations of sexual assault.

IRS warns: Obamacare tax must be paid with tax return


Americans for Tax Reform
Tue, 25 Feb 2014 22:13 UTC
Agency employs Orwellian term "Shared Responsibility Payment" to describe Obamacare individual mandate tax.

President Obama's Internal Revenue Service today quietly released a series of Obamacare "Health Care Tax Tips" warning Americans that they must obtain "qualifying" health insurance - as defined by the federal government - or face a "shared responsibility payment" when filing their tax returns in 2015. The term "shared responsibility payment" refers to the Obamacare individual mandate tax, one of at least seven tax hikes in the healthcare law that directly hit families making less than $250,000 per year.

In "Four Tax Facts about the Health Care Law for Individuals" the agency writes:

Your 2014 tax return will ask if you had insurance coverage or qualified for an exemption. If not, you may owe a shared responsibility payment when you file in 2015.

Governors from Mid-Atlantic and Gulf Coast states, including Virginia's Terry McAuliffe (D), urged Interior Secretary Sally Jewell on Monday to finalize rules that will eventually allow dramatically expanded offshore oil and gas drilling, bringing new industry - and millions in new tax revenue - to some states that have been shut out of the U.S. energy boom.

Jewell and senior Interior Department officials met with McAuliffe, North Carolina Gov. Pat McCrory (R), Alabama Gov. Robert Bentley (R) and Mississippi Gov. Phil Bryant (R) on Monday. The Interior Department is expected to release a Programmatic Environmental Impact Statement within days that would allow oil and gas companies to begin surveying the outer continental shelf for natural resources.

Once the PEIS is issued, seismic surveys for oil and gas deposits could begin within a matter of months.

"We want to find out exactly what's out there, but we also want to do it in an environmentally sound way," McCrory said in an interview. He called the meeting "very positive."

Flashback The Pentagon's vaccine factories


Alliance for Natural Health
Tue, 17 Dec 2013 08:00 UTC
Why is the Pentagon developing and controlling vaccines? Will our troops become human guinea pigs for MIT's emerging vaccine to block stress and fear?

In the aftermath of 9/11 and the 2001 anthrax attacks, the federal government decided not to let that crisis " go to waste." Allegedly to "better protect" civilians and troops against biochemical attacks, germ warfare, or pandemics (including normal, seasonal flu), it put the Pentagon squarely in the vaccine business.

The resulting initiative, embraced by the Bush Administration and then further championed by the Obama Administration:
  • Realized the Pentagon's seemingly obsessive dream of acquiring its own factories in which to manufacture vaccines;
  • Wasted nearly a billion taxpayer dollars - against the advice of government analysts;
  • Richly rewarded Big Pharma and several members of Congress; and
  • Introduced terrifying possibilities of state-mandated and -controlled vaccines, including mind control vaccines.
According to a 2009 analysis commissioned by the second Bush Administration and conducted by the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development, there were two ways the government could ramp up its involvement in protecting against bio-terrorism and epidemics: hire more private contractors, or establish government-managed drug factories.
