US military cooperation with Ukraine National Guard is "complicity in genocide" - Russian MP

US steps to increase military cooperation with Ukraine, providing its National Guard arms and training amid Kiev's military operation, can be considered complicity in war crimes, Russian MP Irina Yarovaya believes.

"In a situation, when the National Guard of Ukraine is leading punitive operations in the Donbass, the US promises to allocate $19 million for training and equipping this military structure - which also includes militants of the ultra-nationalist organization Right Sector - can be considered a direct financial and organizational complicity of the US in the genocide of civilians in south-east of Ukraine, as well as war crimes," the head of Russia's Lower House committee for security and countering corruption, Irina Yarovaya, told the press.

The Obama administration officially informed Congress on Friday of its plans to train and equip the Ukrainian National Guard.

Comment: The US government never has enough money to fix the crumbling infrastructure at home, to provide for homeless people, to give proper education for your children, etc. but they always have enough money for genocidal wars in far-away lands. It is a situation that if not corrected by humans "down here", will be corrected by the Universe from "up there" in the not too distant future.

EMP attack: A doomsday warning from Former CIA director

Former CIA Director Woolsey tells Congress of a doomsday scenario in which a nuclear-blast-triggered electromagnetic pulse takes down the US power grid, leading to starvation and death. Some experts decry 'hysteria' over EMPs.

It is an unsettling doomsday scenario: A ballistic missile is launched from a freighter near America's shores, setting off a nuclear explosion in the atmosphere. The blast generates electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) that could take out the nation's electrical grid and bring civilization as we know it "to a cold, dark halt."

This warning comes from the former director of the CIA, James Woolsey, in little-noticed testimony recently before the House Armed Services Committee.

A nuclear weapon would be detonated in orbit "in order to destroy much of the electric grid from above the US with a single explosion," he told lawmakers last week. "Two thirds of the US population would likely perish from starvation, disease, and societal breakdown. Other experts estimate the likely loss to be closer to 90 percent."

Poroshenko has a Hitler moment, calls parliament '5th column' for not agreeing with his paranoid delusions

Ukraine's president, Petro Poroshenko, has blasted the country's parliament as a "fifth column which cannot recognize the Lugansk and Donetsk People's Republics as terrorist groups." The country is in need of snap parliamentary elections, he added.

"I don't know how to work with the parliament where half of the Verkhovna Rada [parliament] does not vote to recognize the Lugansk People's Republic and Donetsk People's Republic as terrorist organizations," said Poroshenko, Ukraine's local media reported.

"I don't know how to work with the parliament where the majority of people represent a 'fifth column' which is controlled from abroad, whole factions. And the danger of this is only rising," he added.

Poroshenko's reference to a "fifth column" is a strong term in the current situation, as it originates from the Spanish Civil War, where Franco's fascists literally sent a "fifth column" of spies and provocateurs to try to capture Madrid from inside the city. Nowadays, the term has come to be used more widely, to refer to any group of people who undermine a larger group - such as a nation or a besieged city - from within.


Comment: This man is a total joke... which means he fits right in with 'people' like Obama, Kerry, Psaki, Harf, Netanyahu, etc.

Not too bright: Kiev shells checkpoint with OSCE observers and journalists

OSCE

Russian border checkpoint at the Gukovo crossing was shelled from the Ukrainian side twice on Sunday. OSCE observers and journalists were working at the checkpoint when it was attacked.

The first shell exploded at Gukovo at around 13:55 Moscow time (0955 GMT), Russian border guard spokesman Vasily Malaev told Itar-Tass news agency.

"During this time, there were not only customs officers and border guards, but also representatives of the OSCE (Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe) mission present at the crossing," Malaev stressed, adding that no one was hurt as a result of the incident.

Gukovo was hit by a mortar shell, which left a "the crater with the diameter of 40 centimeters and depth of 20 centimeters," said local customs spokesman Rayan Farukshin.

This spot is most likely "sighted" by those, who are executing fire, as Russian border guards went under gun fire there on Friday as they tried to document the damage done by an earlier shelling, he stressed.

The OSCE has confirmed that Gukovo checkpoint in Russia's southern Rostov Region was shelled on Saturday.

Comment: If there were Darwin awards for governments, Kiev would clean house. You can only shoot yourself in the foot so many times before your friends and allies run out of ways to cover it up and make you look good for the camera. The OSCE is there because of Russia's alleged 'wrongdoings' on the border, and it's Kiev that ends up looking bad. Not only is the OSCE finding the Russia is behaving like a perfect gentleman on the border, they are also finding the Kiev is, in fact, shelling the checkpoints. What is going on here? Kiev shelling OSCE observers, Israel bombing UN schools in Gaza... It's as if the politicians are getting even more profoundly stupid and psychopathic.

UN SG calls 3rd IDF attack on UN-run schools "a moral outrage and a criminal act" - yes, but what's he going to do about it?

Gaza UN school
© Reuters / Ibraheem Abu MustafaA Palestinian carries the dead body of a girl following what witnesses said was an Israeli air strike at a United Nations-run school, where displaced Palestinians take refuge, in Rafah in the southern Gaza Strip August 3, 2014.
The UN chief has called a new Israeli airstrike on a Gaza UN school that killed 10 and injured 35 a "moral outrage and a criminal act." Ban Ki-moon called for investigation as official death toll keeps rising.

"This attack, along with other breaches of international law, must be swiftly investigated and those responsible held accountable. It is a moral outrage and a criminal act," UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon's spokesman said in a statement.

The missile fired by an Israeli aircraft hit the entrance to the school in the town of Rafah in southern Gaza Strip, according to Israeli health officials.

The school served as a shelter for some 3,000 Palestinians amid the ongoing violence in the region, as Israel continues its operation against Hamas.

The UN has stressed that this was the third deadly attack on a UN school that shelters Palestinians since fighting broke between Israel and Hamas.

"The Israel Defence Forces have been repeatedly informed of the location of these sites," Ban's spokesman said in a statement.

"For this particular installation we notified the Israeli Army on 33 separate occasions that this school in Rafah was being used to accommodate the displaced, the last time only an hour before the incident," the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) said in a statement.

Comment: Israel is a rogue nation, flouting international law and all human values. Either they are so confident that they can get away with murder - thanks to their stranglehold on Western media and politicians and the deterrent power of Mossad's 'fun and games' - that they continue to deliberately target UN facilities, or they are so arrogant and shortsighted that they do not see that such behavior will finally put the whole world against them. Either way, Israel is showing the world in its actions that it will do whatever the hell it wants, law and morals be damned.

Dissecting West's propaganda of "Russian aggression"

nato expansion
© Unknown
The term "Russian aggression" has been inundating headlines across the Western media and even graces the title of a US Senate bill introduce this year - S.2277 - Russian Aggression Prevention Act of 2014. But what "aggression" is the West referring to? A cursory look at Russian history over the past 500 years compared to say, Britain, France, or even America and its "Manifest Destiny," portrays Russia as a nation preoccupied within and along its borders, not in hegemonic, global expansion. The idea of far-flung former colonies is one unique to the British, French, Dutch, and Spanish. Even today geopolitical, socioeconomic, and even outright military intervention in these former colonies is exclusively the pursuit of the United States and Europe.

The United States alone has hundreds of military bases around the world, has been permanently occupying Germany and Japan for a half century, Afghanistan for over a decade, and had invaded and occupied Iraq for nearly as long.

Comment: We are still waiting for the U.S., Kiev, NATO, EU etc, to provide any evidence to back their accusations against Russia.

Flashback European court of Human Rights finds CIA guilty of torture

Khaled el-Masri
© Chip Somodevilla/Getty ImagesGerman citizen Khaled el-Masri was detained in Macedonia before being handed to the CIA who flew him to Afganistan, where he was allegedly tortured.
America must now apologise to the German citizen, a victim of mistaken identity who was kidnapped and beaten by the CIA.

The much-maligned European court of human rights has this week shown itself at its very best: standing up for the rights of an individual who has been denied justice for almost nine years since he was abducted, secretly detained, and tortured under the CIA's rendition program.

Khaled El-Masri, a German national, was seized by Macedonian security officers on 31 December 2003, at a border crossing, because he had been mistaken for an al-Qaida suspect. He was held incommunicado and abused in Macedonian custody for 23 days, after which he was handcuffed, blindfolded, and driven to Skopje airport, where he was handed over to the CIA and severely beaten.

The CIA stripped, hooded, shackled, and sodomized el-Masri with a suppository - in CIA parlance, subjected him to "capture shock" - as Macedonian officials stood by. The CIA drugged him and flew him to Kabul to be locked up in a secret prison known as the "Salt Pit", where he was slammed into walls, kicked, beaten, and subjected to other forms of abuse. Held at the Salt Pit for four months, el-Masri was never charged, brought before a judge, or given access to his family or German government representatives.

The CIA ultimately realised that it had mistaken el-Masri for an al-Qaida suspect with a similar name. But it held on to him for weeks after that. It was not until 24 May 2004, that he was flown, blindfolded, earmuffed, and chained to his seat, to Albania, where he was dumped on the side of the road without explanation.

Tora Bora tunnels and other insane Zionist psyops

We've seen these tricks before and the images they conjure for the unwary. Not only are these supposed "massive tunnel networks" they're screaming about "secret and hidden", but like stories about the big ogre we only hear about but never see, these fake "intelligence reports" can paint any illusory monster they want with their bombardment of misinformation and propaganda.

Where did we hear about this "tunnel" scheme before? Oh yeah, the massive underground bunkers in Afghanistan. With this and other false allegations they bombed the hell out of that innocent country in order to find the Osama bin Ogre. Of course he was hidden in his plush tunnel network from whence he masterminded and bamboozled, by cell phone no less, the entire western megalomilitary machine. And of course these massive, heavily armed, elaborate and sophisticated hideouts were never found, nor were any weapons of mass destruction found in Iraq. But who needs proof once you've got the excuse and the war is under way?

You don't need to provide any evidence in today's "mediotic" world, just a big enough microphone, as in the Zionist controlled mass-hysteria media. Just look at this nonsense propaganda being passed on as reliable information that clearly indicates and attempts to justify their "need" to bomb Gaza until it's one massive crater to "really get the job done" in order to destroy this "massive tunnel system" located under every inch of "terrorist" Gaza.

Obama administration and IRS now able to spy, track, tax and confiscate US dollars across the world

not welcome bank
© www.freeenterprise.comIt's happening now to American citizens abroad.
The Obama administration and the IRS is NOW able to reach across the world to spy, track, tax, and potentially confiscate U.S. dollars from anyone, across the world. This is not just another tax. This has real implications, take the time to read it and warn others.
In an attempt to generate more tax revenue, the Obama administration and the IRS have angered and encouraged all world banks to drop their U.S. dollar holding clients by October 1st, and systematically usher the collapse of the U.S. Dollar.
It's no secret, China, Iran, Russia, India, Brazil, Japan, and other nations have started bilateral agreements to trade with one another, OUTSIDE the use of U.S. dollars.

The implementation of Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act (FATCA), will go down in history as the biggest blunder in Obama's presidency. FATCA will now force all world (foreign) banks to comply and follow IRS guidelines "IF" they transact in "the almighty" world reserve currency, the U.S. dollar; even if it means breaking their own nations' privacy laws.
As of July 1st. 2014, foreign financial institutions ("FFI") have agreed to file Quarterly Reports directly to the IRS-the first report is due October 1st. The reports include, ALL financial accounts assets, bank accounts, securities accounts, annuity contracts, rental properties, insurance contracts, pension plans, trusts and private investments in companies and partnerships.
Guilty, until proven innocent: Foreign nations and financial institutions will need to prove they 're not concealing U.S. clients (including green card holders). They will have to provide the IRS access to ALL their clients, including their own citizens. Foreign nations and financial institutions are infuriated at the overreaching of the U.S. "Empire."

FATCA notices are being sent out. Foreign banks are notifying their clients to get ready to pay huge back taxes, or close/transfer their accounts, BEFORE the first quarterly report is due, October 1st 2014.

October 1st, could set off a new stock market crash- the New BLACK October! Food for thought: Every major stock market crash has started in October; hence the name: Black October

Much like the Roman Empire, the U.S. Empire's overreaching will have dire consequences. With tensions running high between Obama and Putin over the Ukraine, do you think Putin will comply with the IRS,.. OR!.. sell-off U.S. dollar reserves? The new rules leave some financial officials fuming in places such as Australia, Canada, Germany, Hong Kong and Singapore.

Comment: To add insult to massive injury, the IRS FATCA program doesn't even pay for itself. The U.S. citizens will ultimately have to ante up for this albatross while their wealth is being devalued or confiscated, not to mention the turmoil for U.S. citizens abroad shut out of all economic endeavors and refused access to financial institutions. To what end does this serve? How about the demise of the dollar, the destabilization of the U.S. economy, the ostracizing of America from the world economy and throne of power, and the ultimate devastation of the lives of its people. Why again is this a good idea?

Israel 'wiping Gaza off the map'

Image
© RTWould you know ethnic cleansing when you see it?
Back when the warmongers had hopes of ginning up a war between the United States and Iran during the Bush administration, one of their propaganda talking points was the Iran had "threatened to wipe Israel off the map."

When we look at Gaza's before and after pictures (below) it becomes clear that the charge is more appropriate to Israel itself.

The late Christopher Hitchens, who went off the deep end at the end of his life, joining with the Neoconservatives in hoping for Iran to be so targeted, was furious with me for questioning this underpinning of the war effort.

I pointed out that there is no such idiom in Persian and that the phrase was a quotation from Imam Khomeini in the 1980s, quoted by then president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. What Khomeini had said was "This Occupation regime over Jerusalem must vanish from the page of time." Ahmadinejad said he hoped the Zionist enterprise would collapse just as had the rule of the shah in Iran or that of the Soviet Union. Iran's then president (who is not head of the armed forces) had no authority to order tanks to roll on Israel. There were several countries in between, so Iran cannot attack Israel militarily even if it wanted to. Israeli fighter jets would make mince meat of a conventional Iranian invasion, and anyway Israel has several hundred atomic bombs, which are rather a deterrent.
