Why Congress Hates Russia
By Brother Nathanael
Copyright 2017
“Blessed are the peacemakers”…but who can say this of Congress whose hostility to the world comes near the devil himself.
And now with its anti-Russia, anti-Iran, anti-North Korea bill, (“enemies,” they call them), all the bats come flying out of the belfry.
[Clip: “We will not tolerate attacks on our democracy, that’s what this bill is all about!”]
Then sanction Israel and AIPAC for their ‘attacks’ on our democracy.
Like Jimmy Carter once said, “If you don’t play ball with the Israel Lobby your political career is over.”
Not Chuckie’s. He’s a major player.
[Clip: “Last year we know the United States was victim of an attack by a foreign power on the foundation of this dear democracy, the right of a people to a free and fair election. The consensus view of seventeen agencies is that Mr Putin interfered in the 2016 election. For that alone, the United States has more than just cause to sanction President Putin.”]
You don’t have just cause, where’s the proof, Schumer?
To date, there is still NO forensic evidence that ‘Mr Putin’ hacked our elections.
But Schumer wants to punish Putin, anyways.
Ahh, it’s that same ‘ol Jewish way. They did it to Jesus, remember?
[Clip: “Mr Putin and his allies have not suffered serious repercussions for this stunning breach of our right as a sovereign nation not to have our elections disturbed by a foreign capital. That all changes today. Congress has drafted this Sanctions Bill to hold Mr Putin accountable for his actions and to send a message to him and the rest of the world, any further attempts to degrade our democracy will meet further sanctions and action. We will not stand by idly…”]
How about Russia cutting off its nuclear fuel exports to America that would bring the US to its knees, huh Chuckie?
That’s ‘change’ you won’t ever want to believe in.
Let’s connect some dots here. Who hates Russia?
Putin is admired for having the guts to tell it like it is and for crushing ISIS, something Tel Aviv, I mean DC, just can’t bring itself to do.
And besides, if America is really a ‘christian’ country, why does Congress hate Russia so much whose president and people are savoring its Christian revival?
Perhaps it’s because America is a ‘Jewish’ country, not ‘christian,’ after all.
Look, Russia’s being punished for something it didn’t do, while Iran is being punished for something it legally can do, that is, testing their missiles for self-defense, which is not a violation of the Iran Deal.
Do McCain and Schumer know that the CIA ignited a coup of the democratically-elected Iranian government in 1953?
How ’bout that for a ‘stunning breach’ of a country’s sovereignty? And Iran is one of many.
Perhaps McCain and Schumer should sanction themselves?
It’s the Jews who hate Russia and Iran, spreading their hate through the media they own.
Russia allied with Iran are wrecking Israel’s plot to replace Assad’s government with ISIS so Israel can bulldoze over the Axis of Resistance: Syria, Lebanon, and Iran.
America has a losing dog in this race thanks to its surrender to the blood-thirsty ‘Jewish state.’
It’s the hacks in Congress feeling the whip of their Zionist charioteers in order to make Jewry’s enemies America’s enemies.
[Clip: “If the Congress speaks loudly enough, and strongly enough, and we send this bill with a veto-proof majority, it won’t matter what President Trump decides. Now before I yield the floor, I’d like to thank my colleagues. At the top of the list Senators McCain and Graham who early on had the idea to do this.”]
But blowback is just a sanction away.
[Clip: “The sanctions are absolutely illegal from the perspective of international law and they violate the principles of international trade and World Trade Organization rules. As you know, we are very restrained and patient and at some point we will have to respond. We cannot tolerate this arrogant behavior towards our country forever.”]
Who can?
For with Jewish hostility framing the game on Capitol Hill, maybe we do need some ‘interference,’ after all.

Schumer and his Wall Street friends and the Rothschild criminals want to infiltrate Russia, put in a puppet government, steal from the Russian people, and destroy the Russian Church.
Schumer represents Jewish Organized Crime that is destroying and enslaving all of the rest of us. They use lies and smear to try to get their way.
McCain and Graham are whores who sold themselves to Jewish Organized Crime. They belong in jail cells.
Unfortunately, Americans have become a nation of dumbbells.
It hasn’t all been our fault. The elite have for decades been pumping us full of God knows what and how many brain-curdling toxins. Knowing full well or at least strongly suspecting what they were doing.
But the root of our problem is America has forgotten God. We’ve been living the high life for too long. As though the bill will never come.
Generally speaking Jews ARE on average smarter than the people they live among.
But they mistake intelligence for virtue. Using their argument Hitler must have been highly virtuous.
Well, as the Jews consistently prove, intelligence isn’t a virtue.
But as WE consistently prove, stupidity IS a sin.
I’m trying to make a donation to your website with Pay Pal but the program you have is not working, (Network for Good) or is too complicated for me to understand.

“Its a small rootless international clique that is turning the people against each other that does not want them to have peace” Hitler on the Jews (2:22 in the video).

What prophetic words! As recent events show some things just never change.
The law sanctioning Russia was initially called “The Countering Iran destabilizing activities Act 2017”. Russia was added in subsequently.
Q: How many American Gentiles are obsessed with demonizing and destroying Iran?
A: None. This law is driven by Israel and its 5th column of US based Jewish lobby groups aided and abetted by a Congress that should be on trial for treason.
This law could easily lead to WW3 since its purpose is to destabilize Russia by cutting off a major source of its revenue.
Similar tactics were used against Japan and Germany pre-WW2 the stated goal being to “position them into firing the 1st shot”
One can see why the Jews want every nation in the world to be turned into a “democracy”

As they have proven time and time again it is the easiest form of government to subvert so that it that has nothing to do with the will of the people and everything to do with promoting their own satanic agendas
In 1917 the enemy of the Russian people (and Christian civilization in general) was the mass murdering Jewish Bolshevik. In 2017 its his 1st cousin the mass murdering Jewish Neo-Conservative. Some things never change!
At least a substantial number of people have now woken up
@All
Brother Nathanael’s flawless indictment of IsraHELLI FIRSTERS would be sufficent in a traitorless nation for swift retribution and genuine justice.
Leading to the initiation of conciliation between the said nations.
Until the `Great U.S.`recognises +BN’s summarising of Americas deep rooted problems and vote OUT all who BETRAY the CHRISTian Constitution nothing short of a Coup d’etat will change the inexorable slide to WWIII.

Hitler was virtuous. He was pushed into war by the Jews who wanted to destroy him and Germany. He stood in the way of their agenda much as Putin and Russia now stand in their way.
But the fools in this country that think that we are all powerful don’t realize that Russia is not Germany. Germany lacked the resources and wealth Russia has. Germany was also in a very difficult position to defend against air attacks on it’s industries.
A war with Russia will not go off so easy as did the bully pile on of Germany called WW2. Of course if it all goes nuclear it won’t be good for anybody.
Maybe the Jews, as I am sure they have a plan. But all their best laid plans will come to naught when Christ has finally had enough and takes them on once and for all.
@citizenfitz
The jews are not intelligent people. They are really stupid which is why they get culled every few years.
Their architecture, literature, intellectual and sporting achievements and personal values are all pure junk.
The only thing they excel at is treachery. The protocols are part of that treachery. A big part of that is media control and using the big lie technique.
If you repeat a lie, say for example the “jews are smart” for long enough (centuries) and you have 100% media control people will eventually believe it. That is what has happened to you.
Christy Rubin (alias Anampour) tried this last year by daily repeating that “Assad was killing his own people” to set the stage for Israel roping America into another war for Israel in the middle east
It backfired because the internet called her out but 10 years ago she would have gotten away with it and specifically because of her tens of thousands more innocent women and children would have been killed.
The jew boys already control the Internet and will have to tighten down the Internet screws even more ot their ship will sink.
They are so heavily inbred as to be seriously damaged goods. The only card they have to play is treachery.
@Citizenfitz
quote : It hasn’t all been our fault and the root of our problem is America has forgotten God.
Well my friend how can someone say America is Christian and not honor the 10 commandments against the native people of America or now anywhere in the world?
Just to repeat a necessary history lesson:
“There is a great danger for the United State of America. This great danger is the Jew. Gentlemen, in every land the Jews have settled, they have depressed the moral level and lowered the degree of commercial honesty. They have remained apart and unassimilated; oppressed, they attempt to strangle the nation financially, as in the case of Portugal and Spain.
For more than seventeen hundred years they have lamented their sorrowful fate — namely, that they have been driven out of their mother land; but, gentlemen, if the civilized world today should give them back Palestine and their property, they would immediately find pressing reason for not returning there.
Why? Because they are vampires and vampires cannot live on other vampires — they cannot live among themselves. They must live among Christians and others who do not belong to their race.
If they are not expelled from the United States by the Constitution, within less than one hundred years, they will stream into this country in such numbers that they will rule and destroy us and change our form of Government for which we Americans shed our blood and sacrificed our life, property and personal freedom.
If the Jews are not excluded within two hundred years, our children will be working in the field to feed Jews while they remain in the counting houses, gleefully rubbing their hands.
I warn you, gentlemen, if you do not exclude the Jews forever, your children and your children’s children will curse you in their graves. Their ideas are not those of Americans, even when they lived among us for ten generations. The leopard cannot change his spots. The Jews are a danger to this land, and if they are allowed to enter, they will imperil our institutions. They should be excluded by the Constitution.”
—Benjamin Franklin, Constitutional Convention, 1787
(This speech is not without controversy as to whether Franklin actually said this. None the less, whoever said this, he or she is on target with their analyses.)
A primary course of action should be to vote out Jewish politicians from their elected offices. Secondarily, do not elect any Jewish politicians in to elected office.
In a different vein, how does one convince “President Kushner” to give up on politics, leave his post in the White House and return to his commercial interests?

What steps should Patriotic American Citizens take to save the Nation? Maybe a list of the most important 10. I remember you have done this before, but people must be constantly reminded.
Which congressmen take Zionist AIPAC campaign money and pledge support for Israel? What is the role of the Christian Zionists and can they be converted into real Christians? What role does the NRA play in its support for Trump and their relationship to the deep state?
I think I know the answers to these questions and they might make for interesting articles.
Thanks so much for your efforts,
Art.
Dear +BN
God bless you for a terrific Video. You struck the nail right on the head.
Not only should just McCain and Schumer sanction themselves, but both houses of Congress should sanction themselves as well, right after they impose sanctions on Israel and force AIPAC and all the other interlocking Zionist organizations registered as foreign agents.
Trump signed the sanctions bill today.
The Ron Paul Institute of Liberty discussed this today in a very informative video.

Time to get the torches and pitchforks ready, and on to storming the gates. The lairds need some shaking up.
1. Hitler was many words but “virtuous” isn’t one of them.
He was a drop-out Catholic and many Polish priests died in his camps. However, he WAS a genius and it took a greatly disproportional weight of numbers to finally beat him.
2. Americans often treated the natives poorly – but there were still a substantial number who tried to do right by them. Most Americans viewed them as bloodthirsty savages; and not without some justification.
However badly they were treated I feel confident saying had the situation been reversed the Indians wouldn’t have treated us as well.
When Obama expelled the 35 diplomats and their families, he also ordered a pair of estates owned by the Russian government to be vacated in December.
Owned for decades as out-of-town escapes for Russia’s diplomats and families (with some old-fashioned KGB intelligence gathering and espionage thrown in), these properties—the Elmcroft Estate in Upper Brookville in Long Island and one in eastern Maryland, outside of D.C.
Curbed.com: The secret history of the estates in Maryland and Long Island that had long served as compounds for Russian diplomats (excerpt):
“Labeled “beachside spy nests” by the U.S., these buildings also represent part of the intriguing history of Russian-American relations, and how both have used this types of upscale real estate in their rival’s homeland for international relations, consular missions, and covert surveillance and spying.
The Obama administration’s move, the largest expulsion of Russian officials since 2001, centers on a former governor’s [private] mansion near Oyster Bay, Long Island, and a Georgian-style mansion on the Corsica River outside of Centreville, Maryland.
The mansion on the 14-acre Upper Brookville estate was built in 1918 and owned by New York governor Nathan Miller, before it was purchased by the Russians in 1952 for $80,000 as a home for the Soviet’s chief delegate to the United States.
Another Soviet Long Island retreat, Killenworth, was built by George Dupont Pratt—son of the founder of Standard Oil, Long Island railroad employee, and co-founder of the Boy Scouts.
It has played a key role in Russian diplomacy for decades after being purchased for $1 million in 1946, serving as temporary lodging for both Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev and Fidel Castro before they spoke at the UN.
Originally built in 1913, the sprawling English Renaissance estate featured 49 rooms and 12 fireplaces, and was County Life magazine’s Home of the Year in 1914.
Designed by the Philadelphia firm of Trowbridge and Ackerman, the home is considered the apex achievement of landscape architect James Leal Greenleaf, whose work graces a number of high-end mansions in the northeast, as well as the Lincoln Memorial (a flower bed on the ground was once tended by 50 gardeners).
It even earned screen time in the movie Sabrina, a 1954 love story starring Audrey Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart.”
https://www.curbed.com/2016/12/30/14123758/russian-estates-long-island-maryland-sanctions
The estates were then transferred to the Russian Federation after the fall of the USSR.
Obama offered no substantive proof linking the two compounds or the Russians being expelled to intelligence activities. Evidence? We don’t need no stinking evidence. Warrior-Queen Hillary of Pezuzaland lost, that’s all the proof we need.
The Obama administration described the properties as “beachside spy nests” sometimes used by Russian intelligence operatives to have long conversations on the sand to avoid being ensnared by American electronic surveillance. That’s the entire fact-free “evidence” that Obama had for abruptly expelling Russian diplomats, workers and their families just prior to Russian Orthodox Nativity on 72 hours notice.
They weren’t even given the courtesy of a 30-day notice as the Kremlin has stipulated in their expulsion order.
In other words, Russian diplomats and their families from all over the US having a chance to enjoy their holidays and vacations, hosting parties and celebrations. Above all, sitting on the beach having ordinary conversations without a Smartphone is proof of spying and evading US electronic surveillance.
Why, it’s a veritable Cone of Silence!
This in itself is an ironic enough considering the US spies on everyone, particularly under the Obama Police State. Just ask Germany. And if the Russians wanted to have private conversations on the beach, so what?
The rationale behind seizing and impounding the Russian real estate is similar to the very lucrative asset seizure programs, where a person’s money and personal property is seized by local, state, or federal governments on mere accusation of being used for illegal drug trafficking, no conviction in a court of law required.
The Russian estates were not ever state properties belonging to the US Government, nor were they sold through the USG.
Even though the Soviet government originally purchased them, and were then transferred to the government of the Russian Federation, these are still private properties owned by the Russian state.
Somewhere in Maryland and New York real estate title archives will be copies of the real estate deeds, considering the high profile sellers — the governor of New York and a member of the DuPont family.
On the other hand, the US diplomatic properties in Russia are not owned by the USG, but are instead leased from the Russian government, and have been since the 1930s when the US established relations with the Soviet government.

Russia Beyond the Headlines
What property does the U.S. government lease in Moscow?
Washington’s access to Moscow’s buildings is shrinking as the Russian government reacts to U.S. sanctions, but the buildings rented by America throughout the ages certainly have stories to tell, from extravagant balls to grenade attacks.
This lavish, neoclassical building has served as the official residence of U.S. ambassadors in Russia since 1933. It was built in 1913 by the richest Russian industrialist of the time, Nikolay Vtorov.
There have been a number of lavish receptions held in Spaso House. One of the most memorable involved a bear half-cut on champagne and 100 zebra finches (“rented” by Ambassador William Bullitt from Moscow Zoo) flying freely around the building after escaping from their aviary.
The famous writer Mikhail Bulgakov was in attendance and the scene apparently inspired the chapter about “The Spring Ball of the Full Moon” (“Satan’s ball”) in his iconic novel The Master and Margarita.
We’re pretty sure no decayed corpses fell through the fireplace during the reception though…
The likes of Richard Nixon, George H.W. Bush, George W. Bush, Ronald Reagan, Dwight Eisenhower, and Ray Charles – among others – have all graced the property with their presence.
Enjoy the rest of the article about the rest of the sites that the USG leases:

Sputnik: You’ll ‘Pay a Real Price’: McCain Gloats at Trump’s Signing of Russia Sanctions
US President Donald Trump’s signature, imposing new sanctions on Russia, Iran and North Korea, prompted Republican Senator John McCain to call out the president – this time for (faint) praise.
Trump expressed major reservations about the bill immediately after signing it into law.
That’s a new level even for Trump: to bash something he will forever be on-record as having approved to become law. “The concerns expressed in the president’s signing statement are hardly surprising, though misplaced,” McCain said Wednesday.
“While the American people surely hope for better relations with Russia, what this legislation truly represents is their insistence that Vladimir Putin and his regime must pay a real price for attacking our democracy,” the statement says.
Trump had little choice but to sign the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act into law, given the nearly 100 percent legislative support it received in Congress.
If Trump had vetoed it, there were enough votes in the House and Senate to override his veto, which would have been a major embarrassment to the president.
Instead, Trump continued to disrupt “politics as usual” by passing the law, and then immediately stating the law contained “clearly unconstitutional provisions” and “remains seriously flawed—particularly because it encroaches on the executive branch’s authority to negotiate.”
“As president, I can make far better deals with foreign countries than Congress,” he said. The sanctions have drawn the ire of not only Russia, but France, Germany and the EU; the political victory of the US Congress has come at some cost internationally.
Of course, US intelligence reports suggesting Russian hackers broke into a Democratic National Committee server spurred skepticism among members of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS). VIPS is a group of former CIA, NSA, and other intelligence and defense officials.
In a letter to the president, the group said, “our conclusion [is] that leaks are the source of the WikiLeaks disclosure in question—not hacking.”
“Going forward, I hope the president will be as vocal about Russia’s aggressive behavior as he was about his concerns with this legislation,” the statement from McCain’s press shop read.
As the District Sentinel’s Sam Knight reported on Wednesday, since the belligerent senator is in Arizona receiving cancer treatment, McCain’s absence from the US Capitol is holding up a bill in the Senate that would make it harder to sue financial institutions.

Hey, McInsane, you don’t represent me!
Sputnik: McCain Hurls New Insult at Putin, Sore Over Moscow’s Ability to Defy US Hegemony
Senator John McCain said he was “not surprised” by Russia’s decision to kick out US diplomats, adding that President Putin and “his cronies” will “pay” for their attack on America’s democracy.
Political analyst Nikolai Shlyamin says McCain’s consternation is understandable, given that Russia is one of the few nations able to challenge US hegemony.
On Sunday, Russian President Vladimir Putin announced that Moscow would be considerably cutting the US diplomatic presence in Russia, equalizing the diplomatic missions of each side to 455 people in both countries, thereby forcing 755 US personnel to leave Russia.
The US State Department condemned Russia’s “regrettable” and “uncalled for” act, which Russian officials and analysts have said was a response to looming US sanctions, but also to Washington’s expulsion of Russian diplomats from the US and the seizure of Russian diplomatic property late last year.
Commenting on the Russian president’s decision, Republican Senator and anti-Russia hawk John McCain tweeted that he was ‘not surprised’ by Moscow’s decision to send hundreds of US diplomats home, adding that President Putin “and his cronies” would be made to “pay [the] price for attacking our democracy.”
McCain has a tendency for hurling obscenities when addressing Putin, and has called him a ‘butcher’, a ‘thug’, a ‘murderer’, a ‘killer’ and a ‘KGB agent’, among other epithets.
The Kremlin has described him as someone with a “maniacal hatred towards our country,” but has otherwise generally ignored his remarks in the past.
Speaking to film director Oliver Stone, Russian President Vladimir Putin even revealed that he liked McCain for his patriotism, but added that the senator was the product of a bygone era.
With his “attacking our democracy” line, McCain obviously meant the alleged ‘Russian meddling’ in the 2016 US presidential election, which US media and politicians have talked about for over a year now, all without providing the American public with any substantive evidence to prove their case. Moscow has repeatedly denied the claims of interference, calling them “absolutely unfounded.”
Commenting on Senator McCain’s remarks for Radio Sputnik, political analyst Nikolai Shlyamin said that McCain’s approach toward Russia was understandable, if regrettable.
“Our response [regarding the 755 US diplomats] will never be recognized as justified,” the observer said. “Especially now, amid the ongoing ‘big geopolitical game’ in which old leaders are giving way to new ones, and when all the old frozen geopolitical conflicts are being aggravated.”
According to Shlymain, Russia must take it as a given “that the current US elite (not just the administration, not just officials, not the president, but the elite which runs the country) has an extremely negative attitude toward Russia, as a state which can resist the global leadership of the United States.”

Dear All,
A word of caution (while I take a short break from my Street Evangelism here in Summit County this afternoon.)
Do not read, or sift out the mostly chaff from the wheat, anything Paul Craig Roberts writes about Putin and Russia politics.
Roberts doesn’t have a clue (like the Saker/faker), how Putin operates and the complexities of Russia’s international affairs. NOT a clue.
I’m friends with people who know Putin personally, and as a member of the Russian Orthodox Church, have many contacts with inner-Russia knowledge.
Putin wishes to maintain, among other footprints in the West, his two English websites: RT, and Sputnik. That’s smart, very smart.
Stay away from Roberts and the dis-info know-it-all ass Saker.

Thank you so much, Br. Nat, for enlightening all of us with your article and video as to who the true enemy of the US truly is.
I have a book entitled “Under the Sign Of the Scorpion” written by the Estonian historian/writer Juri Lina; I bought that book over a decade ago. Mr. Lina’s right on target as to the true nature of both Lenin and Trotsky (two of the most bloodthirsty vile creatures that ever lived), as well as the Bolshevik Jews as a whole.
This Satanic pair instigated riots and revolutions throughout Central and Eastern Europe, just as the present-day Trotskyites have been (and still are) instigating riots and revolutions in other countries now.
And, Citizenfitz, Adolf Hitler did everything possible to prevent WWII, but the Rothschild Jewish Banksters were too strong for him (they totally controlled countries such as France and Britain).
If you really want to know who the real vicious, evil tyrants were, just look at Lenin, Trotsky, Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot .. Those three alone exterminated well over 100 million innocents in the countries they ruled. The Congress of the past few decades resembles the Politburo, with the difference being the POTUS being nothing more than a mere puppet.
My prayers go out to you, Br. Nat, as you continue preaching the Gospels to all who’ll listen. You’re a great orator, thanks to the Lord Jesus, who has your back always.
I’m going to watch your video on this topic and look at your T-shirts.
God bless you always,

There is no way out of this nightmare except through Christ.
I never knew about JFK’s executive order 1110 which would strip the FED RESERVE of its power and then issue silver certificates backed by tangible silver instead of lies.
This EO was drafted 5 months before his assassination. He was the last real President.
After seeing the comment to avoid Paul Craig Roberts, I ran the simple POZ litmus test on Roberts’ website to see what Roberts says about the Protocols of Zion:
Your search – site:paulcraigroberts.org protocols zion – did not match any documents.
Roberts scored Zero. Roberts doesn’t pass the gut check. For comparison, you find hundreds of search results for POZ when you site search Jew-wise websites like realjewnews.com or davidduke.com and those results validate the POZ rather than lie. Roberts’ lips are sealed about the POZ.
Any source which hides the POZ or is unaware of the POZ is hiding the truth or else is unaware of the truth.

Today, the staff of the US Embassy in Moscow left the dacha in the Serebryany Bor. From noon, they can no longer use neither the dacha, nor the warehouse on Dorozhnaya Street in Moscow.
The ban was introduced after the US Senate approved new anti-Russian sanctions, and given the fact that Washington never returned the illegally arrested diplomatic property of Russia in the US.
Also, the Americans have exactly one month to reduce the number of employees of their diplomatic missions by 755 people.
That is, leave as many of them as Russia has in the United States. Alexei Petrov is reporting from the deserted American dacha.

[This mag is liberal/progressive/Judeocentric, so considering all of this happened under Bill and Hillary’s “progressive(ly)” corrupt WH administration, the effect on the Russians had to be extremely disastrous for the Nation to publish this indirect but caustic reproach of the god and goddess of Pezuzu.
My late husband was a Russian national who was born and raised in post-war Leningrad in 1952 of Leningrader parents who barely survived the war, when the city was still recovering from the German Blockade of Leningrad which lasted almost 900 days under considerable hardship.
Between the 1920s and 1958 the urban population of the USSR jumped from around 18 percent to more than 50 percent and housing was in short supply.
With his citizens squeezed into communal apartments and the urban population continuing its rapid increase, the housing crisis in Khrushchev’s Soviet Union was urgent. The communal apartments were bursting at the seams.
With free housing promised to Soviet citizens, a primary concern in the design of housing was the cost.
Khrushchyovki housing blocks popped up all over the CCCP like mushrooms.
Khrushchyovka is an unofficial name of type of low-cost, concrete-paneled or brick three- to five-storied apartment building which was developed in the USSR during the early 1960s, during the time its namesake Nikita Khrushchev directed the Soviet government.
Also known as “Khruschoba” — Krushchev-slum. They were largely prefabricated at concrete factories designed to be built very quickly.
The squat design was a result of a Soviet requirement for all buildings above five storys to be fitted with a lift. Foregoing an elevator meant the design was simplified and significantly cheaper to build.
As a result of the ubiquitous design, even the farthest flung corners of the Soviet Union came to look the same by the end of Khrushchev’s reign.
Despite their many drawbacks, these apartments represented the most desirable accommodation in Soviet times.
People moved there from the kommunalka happily accepting the small kitchens, low ceilings, and poor sound-proofing because one family lived in each apartment.
My husband was born the same year as Putin, also a Leningrader. Both grew up in a Khruschoba. He knew of Putin, but had never met him personally. Towards the 1960s Leningrad life had stabilized considerably.
My P.L. came to America in 1997, we met here in California in 1998, and were married in 1999.
He had plenty to say about the two headed Clinton beast and the Harvard Jew Boys, and the utter economic ruination of New Russia to widespread suffering and impoverishment, where no one got rich except for the utterly greedy and corrupt Harvard carrion crows from America and the criminal oligarchs who were tied in to Chubais.’
This article is entirely in harmony with what my late P.L. told me about the wild and wicked Russian decade of the 1990’s. It was far worse than when he grew up, and he grew up in tough conditions. He lived through Jewmerica’s grubby hands in bringing down disaster and misery with their plots for economic shock doctrine debt-slavery of Russians.
After Forty-five years of the Cold War and Iron Curtain, after a difficult 1980s decade economically, after glasnost and perestroika, and the opening of trade, economic, and cultural exchanges and joint Russian-American associations of all kinds, the framing and signing of new nuclear treaties and cooperation sprouting on many levels, the Russian people were looking forward to resuming the old friendship between America and Russia.
They imagined Rodina and Liberty moving into the future together to make the world a better place.
Of course the Russians are disappointed yet again with this new presidential cycle, but they’re forging ahead making Russia and a good chunk of the world a better place anyway.
Incidentally, both +BN’s Article, Harvard Jews Loot Russia and this one below, explains the reason why the Russians were rooting for Trump and saw him as the better choice than Hildebeast who was determined to be the first feminist War President and said so at every chance — their fear and loathing of the Clintons.
What they did to Russia, and what they would do to Russia if the womanoid was elected president.
The plain fact is, Clintons and the Harvard Jew Boys gave birth to the criminal mostly Jewish Russian oligarch bridge trolls.]
The Nation: After seven years of economic “reform” financed by billions of dollars in U.S. and other Western aid, subsidized loans and rescheduled debt, the majority of Russian people find themselves worse off economically.
The privatization drive that was supposed to reap the fruits of the free market instead helped to create a system of tycoon capitalism run for the benefit of a corrupt political oligarchy that has appropriated hundreds of millions of dollars of Western aid and plundered Russia’s wealth.
The architect of privatization was former First Deputy Prime Minister Anatoly Chubais, a darling of the U.S. and Western financial establishments. Chubais’s drastic and corrupt stewardship made him extremely unpopular. According to The New York Times, he “may be the most despised man in Russia.”
Essential to the implementation of Chubais’s policies was the enthusiastic support of the Clinton Administration and its key representative for economic assistance in Moscow, the Harvard Institute for International Development.
Using the prestige of Harvard’s name and connections in the Administration, H.I.I.D. officials acquired virtual carte blanche over the U.S. economic aid program to Russia, with minimal oversight by the government agencies involved. With this access and their close alliance with Chubais and his circle, they allegedly profited on the side. Yet few Americans are aware of H.I.I.D.’s role in Russian privatization, and its suspected misuse of taxpayers’ funds.
At the recent U.S.-Russian Investment Symposium at Harvard’s John F. Kennedy School of Government, Yuri Luzhkov, the Mayor of Moscow, made what might have seemed to many an impolite reference to his hosts. After castigating Chubais and his monetarist policies, Luzhkov, according to a report of the event, “singled out Harvard for the harm inflicted on the Russian economy by its advisers, who encouraged Chubais’s misguided approach to privatization and monetarism.”
Luzhkov was referring to H.I.I.D. Chubais, who was delegated vast powers over the economy by Boris Yeltsin, was ousted in Yeltsin’s March purge, but in May he was given an immensely lucrative post as head of Unified Energy System, the country’s electricity monopoly. Some of the main actors with Harvard’s Russia project have yet to face a reckoning, but this may change if a current investigation by the U.S. government results in prosecutions. [It never did that I know of — Kj]
The activities of H.I.I.D. in Russia provide some cautionary lessons on abuse of trust by supposedly disinterested foreign advisers, on U.S. arrogance and on the entire policy of support for a single Russian group of so-called reformers. The H.I.I.D. story is a familiar one in the ongoing saga of U.S. foreign policy disasters created by those said to be our “best and brightest.”
Through the late summer and fall of 1991, as the Soviet state fell apart, Harvard Professor Jeffrey Sachs and other Western economists participated in meetings at a dacha outside Moscow where young, pro-Yeltsin reformers planned Russia’s economic and political future.
Sachs teamed up with Yegor Gaidar, Yeltsin’s first architect of economic reform, to promote a plan of “shock therapy” to swiftly eliminate most of the price controls and subsidies that had underpinned life for Soviet citizens for decades. Shock therapy produced more shock–not least, hyperinflation that hit 2,500 percent–than therapy.
One result was the evaporation of much potential investment capital: the substantial savings of Russians. By November 1992, Gaidar was under attack for his failed policies and was soon pushed aside. When Gaidar came under seige, Sachs wrote a memo to one of Gaidar’s principal opponents, Ruslan Khasbulatov, Speaker of the Supreme Soviet, then the Russian parliament, offering advice and to help arrange Western aid and contacts in the U.S. Congress.
Enter Anatoly Chubais, a smooth, 42-year-old English-speaking would-be capitalist who became Yeltsin’s economic czar. Chubais, committed to “radical reform,” vowed to construct a market economy and sweep away the vestiges of Communism.
The U.S. Agency for International Development (U.S.A.I.D.), without experience in the former Soviet Union, was readily persuaded to hand over the responsibility for reshaping the Russian economy to H.I.I.D., which was founded in 1974 to assist countries with social and economic reform.
H.I.I.D. had supporters high in the Administration. One was Lawrence Summers, himself a former Harvard economics professor, whom Clinton named Under Secretary of the Treasury for International Affairs in 1993. Summers, now Deputy Treasury Secretary, had longstanding ties to the principals of Harvard’s project in Russia and its later project in Ukraine.
Summers hired a Harvard Ph.D., David Lipton (who had been vice president of Jeffrey D. Sachs and Associates, a consulting firm), to be Deputy Assistant Treasury Secretary for Eastern Europe and the Former Soviet Union. After Summers was promoted to Deputy Secretary, Lipton moved into Summers’s old job, assuming “broad responsibility” for all aspects of international economic policy development.
Lipton co-wrote numerous papers with Sachs and served with him on consulting missions in Poland and Russia. “Jeff and David always came [to Russia] together,” said a Russian representative at the International Monetary Fund. “They were like an inseparable couple.” Sachs, who was named director of H.I.I.D. in 1995, lobbied for and received U.S.A.I.D. grants for the institute to work in Ukraine in 1996 and 1997.
Andrei Shleifer, a Russian-born émigré and already a tenured professor of economics at Harvard in his early 30s, became director of H.I.I.D.’s Russia project. Shleifer was also a protégé of Summers, with whom he received at least one foundation grant.
Summers wrote a promotional blurb for Privatizing Russia (a 1995 book co-written by Shleifer and subsidized by H.I.I.D.) declaring that “the authors did remarkable things in Russia, and now they have written a remarkable book.”
Another Harvard player was a former World Bank consultant named Jonathan Hay, a Rhodes scholar who had attended Moscow’s Pushkin Institute for Russian Language. In 1991, while still at Harvard Law School, he had become a senior legal adviser to the G.K.I., the Russian state’s new privatization committee; the following year he was made H.I.I.D.’s general director in Moscow.
The youthful Hay assumed vast powers over contractors, policies and program specifics; he not only controlled access to the Chubais circle but served as its mouthpiece.
H.I.I.D.’s first awards from U.S.A.I.D. for work in Russia came in 1992, during the Bush Administration. Over the next four years, with the endorsement of the Clinton Administration, the institute would be awarded $57.7 million–all but $17.4 million without competitive bidding.
For example, in June 1994 Administration officials signed a waiver that enabled H.I.I.D. to receive $20 million for its Russian legal reform program. Approving such a large sum as a noncompetitive “amendment” to a much smaller award (the institute’s original 1992 award was $2.1 million) was highly unusual, as was the citation of “foreign policy” considerations as the reason for the waiver.
Nonetheless, the waiver was endorsed by five U.S. government agencies, including the Treasury Department and the National Security Council, two of the leading agencies formulating U.S. aid policy toward Russia.
In addition to the millions it received directly, H.I.I.D. helped steer and coordinate some $300 million in U.S.A.I.D. grants to other contractors, such as the Big Six accounting firms and the giant Burson-Marsteller P.R. firm.
As Yeltsin’s Russian government took over Soviet assets in late 1991 and early 1992, several privatization schemes were floated. The one the Supreme Soviet passed in 1992 was structured to prevent corruption, but the program Chubais eventually carried out instead encouraged the accumulation of property in a few hands and opened the door to widespread corruption.
It was so controversial that Chubais ultimately had to rely largely on Yeltsin’s presidential decrees, not parliamentary approval, for implementation.
Many U.S. officials embraced this dictatorial modus operandi, and Jonathan Hay and his associates drafted many of the decrees. As U.S.A.I.D.’s Walter Coles, an early supporter of Chubais’s privatization program, put it, “If we needed a decree, Chubais didn’t have to go through the bureaucracy.”
With help from his H.I.I.D. advisers and other Westerners, Chubais and his cronies set up a network of aid-funded “private” organizations that enabled them to bypass legitimate government agencies and circumvent the new parliament of the Russian Federation, the Duma.
Through this network, two of Chubais’s associates, Maxim Boycko (who co-wrote Privatizing Russia with Shleifer) and Dmitry Vasiliev, oversaw almost a third of a billion dollars in aid money and millions more in loans from international financial institutions.
Much of this largesse flowed through the Moscow-based Russian Privatization Center (R.P.C.). Founded in 1992 under the direction of Chubais, who was chairman of its board even while head of the G.K.I., and Boycko, who was C.E.O. for most of its existence, the R.P.C. was legally a private, nonprofit, nongovernmental organization.
In fact, it was established by another Yeltsin decree and helped carry out government policy on inflation and other macroeconomic issues and also negotiated loans with international financial institutions.
H.I.I.D. was a founder of the R.P.C., and Andrei Shleifer served on the board of directors. Its other members were recruited by Chubais, according to Ira Lieberman, a senior manager in the private-sector development department of the World Bank who helped design the R.P.C.
With H.I.I.D.’s help, the R.P.C. received some $45 million from U.S.A.I.D. and millions from the European Union, individual European governments, Japan and other countries, as well as loans from the World Bank ($59 million) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development ($43 million), which must be repaid by the Russian people. One result of this funding was the enrichment, political and financial, of Chubais and his allies.
H.I.I.D. helped create several more aid-funded institutions. One was the Federal Commission on Securities, a rough equivalent of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (S.E.C.). It too was established by presidential decree, and it was run by Chubais protégé Dmitry Vasiliev.
The commission had very limited enforcement powers and funding, but U.S.A.I.D. supplied the cash through two Harvard-created institutions run by Hay, Vasiliev and other members of the Harvard-Chubais coterie.
One of these was the Institute for Law-Based Economy, funded by both the World Bank and U.S.A.I.D. This institute, set up to help develop a legal and regulatory framework for markets, evolved to encompass drafting decrees for the Russian government; it got nearly $20 million from U.S.A.I.D.
Last August [1997], the Russian directors of I.L.B.E. were caught removing $500,000 worth of U.S. office equipment from the organization’s Moscow office; the equipment was returned only after weeks of U.S. pressure. When auditors from U.S.A.I.D.’s inspector general’s office sought records and documents regarding I.L.B.E. operations, the organization refused to turn them over.
The device of setting up private organizations backed by the power of the Yeltsin government and maintaining close ties to H.I.I.D. was a way of insuring deniability. Shleifer, Hay and other Harvard principals, all U.S. citizens, were “Russian” when convenient.
Hay, for example, served alternately and sometimes simultaneously as aid contractor, manager of other contractors and representative of the Russian government. If Western donors were attacked for funding controversial privatization practices of the state, the donors could claim they were funding “private” organizations, even if these organizations were controlled or strongly influenced by key state officials.
If the Chubais circle came under fire for misuse of funds, they could claim that Americans made the decisions. Foreign donors could insist that the Russians acted on their own.
Against the backdrop of Russia’s Klondike capitalism, which they were helping create and Chubais and his team were supposedly regulating, the H.I.I.D. advisers exploited their intimate ties with Chubais and the government and were allegedly able to conduct business activities for their own enrichment.
According to sources close to the U.S. government’s investigation, Hay used his influence, as well as U.S.A.I.D.-financed resources, to help his girlfriend, Elizabeth Hebert, set up a mutual fund, Pallada Asset Management, in Russia.
Pallada became the first mutual fund to be licensed by Vasiliev’s Federal Commission on Securities. Vasiliev approved Pallada ahead of Credit Suisse First Boston and Pioneer First Voucher, much larger and more established financial institutions.
After Pallada was set up, Hebert, Hay, Shleifer and Vasiliev looked for ways to continue their activities as aid funds dwindled. Using I.L.B.E. resources and funding, they established a private consulting firm with taxpayer money. One of the firm’s first clients was Shleifer’s wife, Nancy Zimmerman, who operated a Boston-based hedge fund that traded heavily in Russian bonds.
According to Russian registration documents, Zimmerman’s company set up a Russian firm with Sergei Shishkin, the I.L.B.E. chief, as general director. Corporate documents on file in Moscow showed that the address and phone number of the company and the I.L.B.E. were the same.
Then there is the First Russian Specialized Depository, which holds the records and assets of mutual fund investors. This institution, funded by a World Bank loan, also worked to the benefit of Hay, Vasiliev, Hebert and another associate, Julia Zagachin.
According to sources close to the U.S. government’s investigation, Zagachin, an American married to a Russian, was selected to run the depository even though she lacked the required capital. Ostensibly, there was to be total separation between the depository and any mutual fund using its services.
But the selection of Zagachin defied this tenet of open markets: Pallada and the depository were run by people with ties to each other through H.I.I.D. Thus the very people who were supposed to be the trustees of the system not only undercut the aid program’s stated goal of building independent institutions but replicated the Soviet practice of skimming assets to benefit the nomenklatura.
Anne Williamson, a journalist who specializes in Soviet and Russian affairs, details these and other conflicts of interest between H.I.I.D.’s advisers and their supposed clients – the Russian people – in her forthcoming book, How America Built the New Russian Oligarchy.
For example, in 1995, in Chubais-organized insider auctions of prime national properties, known as loans-for-shares, the Harvard Management Company (H.M.C.), which invests the university’s endowment, and billionaire speculator George Soros were the only foreign entities allowed to participate.
H.M.C. and Soros became significant shareholders in Novolipetsk, Russia’s second-largest steel mill, and Sidanko Oil, whose reserves exceed those of Mobil. H.M.C. and Soros also invested in Russia’s high-yielding, I.M.F.-subsidized domestic bond market.
Even more dubious, according to Williamson, was Soros’s July 1997 purchase of 24 percent of Sviazinvest, the telecommunications giant, in partnership with Uneximbank’s Vladimir Potanin. It was later learned that shortly before this purchase Soros had tided over Yeltsin’s government with a backdoor loan of hundreds of millions of dollars while the government was awaiting proceeds of a Eurobond issue; the loan now appears to have been used by Uneximbank to purchase Norilsk Nickel in August 1997.
According to Williamson, the U.S. assistance program in Russia was rife with such conflicts of interest involving H.I.I.D. advisers and their U.S.A.I.D.-funded Chubais allies, H.M.C. managers, favored Russian bankers, Soros and insider expatriates working in Russia’s nascent markets.
Despite exposure of this corruption in the Russian media (and, far more hesitantly, in the U.S. media), the H.I.I.D.-Chubais clique remained until recently the major instrument of U.S. economic aid policy to Russia. It even used the high-level Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission, which helped orchestrate the cooperation of U.S.-Russian oil deals and the Mir space station.
The commission’s now-defunct Capital Markets Forum was chaired on the Russian side by Chubais and Vasiliev, and on the U.S. side by S.E.C. chairman Arthur Levitt Jr. and Treasury Secretary Robert Rubin.
Andrei Shleifer was named special coordinator to all four of the Capital Markets Forum’s working subgroups. Hebert, Hay’s girlfriend, served on two of the subgroups, as did the C.E.O.s of Salomon Brothers, Merrill Lynch and other powerful Wall Street investment houses.
When The Nation contacted the S.E.C. for information about Capital Markets, we were told to call Shleifer for comment. Shleifer, who is under investigation by U.S.A.I.D.’s inspector general for misuse of funds, declined to be interviewed for this article.
A U.S. Treasury spokesman said Shleifer and Hebert were appointed to Capital Markets by the Chubais group–specifically, according to other sources, by Dmitry Vasiliev.
In fact, H.I.I.D. projects were never adequately monitored by U.S.A.I.D. In 1996, a General Accounting Office report described U.S.A.I.D.’s management and oversight of H.I.I.D. as “lax.” In early 1997, U.S.A.I.D.’s inspector general received incriminating documents about H.I.I.D.’s activities in Russia and began investigating.
In May Shleifer and Hay lost their projects when the agency canceled most of the $14 million still earmarked for H.I.I.D., citing evidence that the two managers were engaged in activities for “private gain.” The men had allegedly used their positions to profit from investments in the Russian securities markets and other private enterprises.
According to sources close to the U.S. investigation, while advising the Russian government on capital markets, for example, Hay and his father allegedly used inside information to invest in Russian government bonds. Hay and Shleifer may ultimately face criminal and/or civil prosecution.
Shleifer remains a tenured professor at Harvard, and Hay continues to work with members of the Chubais clique in Russia.
Sachs, who has stated he never invests in countries where he advises and who is not implicated in the current U.S. government investigation, remains head of H.I.I.D. After Yeltsin’s Cabinet shakeup in March, Chubais was moved to a new position of prominence. His role in Russia’s political-economic affairs had been tarnished by reports of personal enrichment. Two examples:
§ In February 1996, Chubais’s Foundation for the Protection of Private Property received a five-year, $2.9 million unsecured interest-free loan.
According to the pro-Yeltsin, pro-reform Izvestia, Stolichny Bank, an institution that enjoys lines of credit from the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development and the World Bank, made the loan in return for a small percentage of the Sibneft oil company when it was sold at auction, and for later control of one of the state’s largest banks.
Chubais defended himself by saying such practices were common in the West, but failed to provide any reasonable explanation for some $300,000 in 1996 income not accounted for by his government salary.
§ During Yeltsin’s 1996 presidential campaign, security officials apprehended two close associates of Chubais as they were walking out of a main government building with a box containing more than $500,000 in cash for Yeltsin’s campaign.
According to tapes of a later meeting recorded by a member of one of Russia’s security services, Chubais and his cronies strategized about burying evidence of any illegal transaction, while publicly claiming that any allegations of chicanery were the work of political enemies.
A protracted, lackadaisical investigation began but was eventually dropped–more evidence of Chubais’s remarkable resilience. He remained valuable to Yeltsin largely because of his perceived ability to deal with the West, where many still regard him as a symbol of Russian reform.
During the five years that the Chubais clique presided over Western economic aid and policy in Russia, they did enormous harm. By unconditionally backing Chubais and his associates, the Harvard operatives, their U.S. government patrons and Western donors may have reinforced the new post-Soviet oligarchical system.
Shleifer acknowledged as much in Privatizing Russia, the book he wrote with Chubais crony Maxim Boycko, who with his patron would later be caught in another financial indiscretion involving taking a “veiled bribe” in the form of advances on a book on the history of Russian privatization. “Aid can change the political equilibrium,” they said, “by explicitly helping free-market reformers to defeat their opponents.”
Richard Morningstar, U.S. aid coordinator for the former Soviet Union, stands by this approach: “If we hadn’t been there to provide funding to Chubais, could we have won the battle to carry out privatization? Probably not. When you’re talking about a few hundred million dollars, you’re not going to change the country, but you can provide targeted assistance to help Chubais.”
In early 1996, after he was temporarily removed from high office by Yeltsin because he represented unpopular economic policies, H.I.I.D. came to his rescue by placing him on its U.S.A.I.D.-funded payroll, a show of loyalty that former U.S.A.I.D. assistant administrator Thomas Dine says he supported.
Western policy-makers like Morningstar and Dine have depicted Chubais as a selfless visionary battling reactionary forces. In the spring of 1997, Summers called him and his associates a “dream team.” With few exceptions, the U.S. mainstream media have promulgated this view.
United States policy toward Russia requires a full-scale Congressional investigation. The General Accounting Office did investigate H.I.I.D.’s Russian and Ukrainian projects in 1996, but the findings were largely suppressed by the agency’s timid management. The audit team concluded, for example, that the U.S. government exercised “favoritism” toward Harvard, but this conclusion and the supporting documentation were removed from the final report.
Last fall Congress asked the G.A.O. to look into Eastern European aid programs and Shleifer’s role in the Gore-Chernomyrdin Commission.
Such questions need to be answered, but any serious inquiry must go beyond individual corruption and examine how U.S. policy, using tens of millions in taxpayer dollars, helped deform democracy and economic reform in Russia and helped create a fat-cat oligarchy run amok.

After the ‘communist’ Jewish Sovjet era, the Russians know every Jewish trick from the holy Jewish books.
The Russians know how to resist and even beat the global Zionist power. Rothschild needs a global conflict at this moment (world war 3) to remain in absolute power over the western countries, and China and North Korea as well.
The current “conflict” between USA and North Korea is a totally artificial act of theater written by the Rothschild, who control both sides. They want to escalate this conflict, so they can attack countries like Russia and Iran.
The next item on the Rothschild agenda (after they started WWIII) is to play the ‘extra terrestrial alien’ card (another Jewish trick) in order to “save mankind from total destruction”.
The Zionist Jews have manipulated Western science (mainly physics) in order to cover up their technology theft i.e. free energy and controlled gravity technology. Reportedly, Rothschild’s criminal biolab has produced many stable human-animal hybrids now, which they will present to us as “extra terrestrials”.
This will be the latest method of good old Jewish scare tactics that influenced mankind for centuries, and it will also obscure the grand technology/science theft by the Rothschild.
You have NO IDEA how many dissident physicsts have been excommunicated by the Jew controlled “official physics community,” simply because they disproved an aspect of the current Jewish version of physics, aka ‘the standard model of physics’.
After the year 1900 a silent Rothschild coup of the science establishment happened, and the best known Rothschild Zionist “scientist” was A. Einstein, After 1900 the leading physicists were pratically ALL JEWISH, not because Jews are so smart, but because Rothschild wanted to control all scientific/technological progress (so we had NO real progress at all).
Einstein’s relativity theory (which was fully developed by Voigt, Lorentz, Poincare and Minkovski) is a complete farce and lie, and the Jewish Bohr-Born interpretation of ‘quantum wave mechanics’ is another farce and lie.
It all started with errors in Classical Electrodynamics theory: J.C. Maxwell was totally against the H.A. Lorentz force law, which is INCORRECT indeed.
The Jews exploited this significant error in their advantage. This is one of the reasons why Nikola Tesla’s reputation (and the reputation of many other scientists/inventors) could be destroyed by the Zionist Jews.
Physics Nobel prices are rewarded only to those who stick to the Jewish ‘standard model’ of physics, since Rothschild controls the Nobel Prize committee (and many non-Jewish scientists) by means of their masonic networks.
This is an interesting observation over the latest Jew push to expand their control in Jerusalem:
“It also includes many Palestinian Christians who came to pray with their Muslim brethren.”
The Palestinian people sucessfully withstood the brutal oppression of the Jews.
I woke up to the Jews eleven years ago. +BN has been on the net almost ten years. A hundred years ago, a century ago the Jews took over Russia.
The very same Jews started to take over USA a hundred years ago. Today the Jews totally controls America:
Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu’s Full Speech To Congress (March 3, 2015), One hour, 60 min.
https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=L1S1NxzefTs
Netanyahu has spoken in Congress twice, one hour each time. About 30 standing ovations to Jew Nutanyahooo.
The latest move by the Jews: One million in fines and 20 (twenty) years in prison – for talking back to the Jews.
Perhaps most stunning is our interview with the primary sponsor of the bill, Democratic Sen. Benjamin Cardin, who seemed to have no idea what was in his bill, particularly insisting that it contains no criminal penalties.
But as the ACLU put it, “Violations would be subject to a minimum civil penalty of $250,000 and a maximum criminal penalty of $1 million and 20 years in prison.”
—–
Let that sink in for a minute: a one million dollar fine and 20 years in prison — for criticizing the Jews.

It’s official: The nation feared the most ln the world today is the United States of America.
High time Mr. Ron ‘squeaky’ Paul manned up, coughed hard, cleared his throat & swapped “The Deep State” & “Neocons” for at least “Friends of Israel” or “Ziophiles” in order to demistify millions of unenlightened.
Quoting RT’s stupendous Murad Gazdiev, Obummer & Doughnald have made America “Great again”…-The Greatest threat!
Not only does Brother Nathanael produce excellent articles, and poignant, thought provoking literature and video reports, but many commentators here seem to be drawn by his intelligent Christian philosophy.
Commentators on this site, are like writers in their own right. I can only read and wonder, with utter admiration.
May God bless you all, and keep you safe.
The Jews are trying to turn-over the election.
Get ready for Civil War. Get ready for POW camps
Now that Trump signed the rotten thing…
Received a Ron Paul Institute email circular today written by McDaniels:
Russia Sanctions and The Coming Crackdown on Americans
Dear Friends of the Ron Paul Institute:
Last week I wrote an article and did an interview explaining that in my reading of the new Russia sanctions bill just signed by President Trump, there is a measure opening the door to a US government crackdown on some of the non-mainstream media.
http://ronpaulinstitute.org/archives/congress-alert/2017/july/25/house-passes-new-russia-sanctions-pumps-adrenaline-into-cold-war-20/
In particular, Section 221 of the “Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act” would punish “persons” who are “engaging in transactions with the intelligence or defense sectors of the Government of the Russian Federation.”
At first one might think this is reading too much into the text, however as a twelve year Capitol Hill veteran bill-reader I can assure you that these bills are never written in a simple, expository manner.
There is always a subtext, and in this case we must consider the numerous instances where the Director of Central Intelligence and other senior leadership in the US intelligence community have attempted to establish the idea that foreign news channels such as RT or Sputnik News are not First Amendment protected press, but rather tools of a foreign intelligence organization. [McDaniels is regulary interviewed by, and submits articles to, RT].
You can see in the current atmosphere, where anti-Russia hysteria has spread like typhoid, how readily-accepted such a notion would be by many. The reds are under our beds and the Russkies have taken over our airwaves.
I don’t think the crackdown will stop at Russian government funded news organizations like RT and Sputnik, however.
Once the initial strike is made at the lowest hanging fruit, the second wave will target Russia-focused organizations not funded by governments but that challenge the official US government line that Russia is our number one enemy and its government must be overthrown.
Popular private alternative websites like The Duran and Russia Insider will likely be next on the list for prosecution.
Sound farfetched?
Think of it this way (I can assure you the neocons do): if the Russian government and RT are opposed to sanctions and you operate a website that also takes a line in opposition to Russia sanctions are you not doing the work of Russian intelligence?
Are you not seeking to influence your readers in a manner that Russian intelligence would want? Are you not “engaging in transactions” even over the airwaves?
And after this second wave you can be sure there will be a push to move on other alternative media that has nothing to do with Russia but that opposes US interventionist foreign policy: ZeroHedge, Lew Rockwell, Ron Paul Institute, ConsortiumNews, etc.
Crazy, you say? Don’t forget: this war against us already started last year when the Washington Post ran a front page article accusing all of the above of being Russian agents!
What would be next? Do you read any of these alternative news sites? Do you pass along articles that oppose US sanctions policy toward Russia? You are engaging in transactions.
You will be subject to “sanctions” as described in the “Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act,” which is now the law of the land.
This would never happen, you might say. The government would never compile, analyze, and target private news outlets just because they deviate from the official neocon Washington line.
Perhaps not yet. But US government funded “non-governmental” organizations are already doing just that.
The German Marshall Fund has less to do with Germany these days than it did when founded after WWII.
It’s mostly funded by the US government, allied governments (especially in the Russia-hating Baltics), neocon grant-making foundations, and the military-industrial complex.
Through its strangely Soviet-sounding “Alliance for Securing Democracy” project it has launched something called “Hamilton 68: A New Tool to Track Russian Disinformation on Twitter.”
Bizarre illustration on “Hamilton 68” project website.
http://securingdemocracy.gmfus.org/blog/2017/08/02/hamilton-68-new-tool-track-russian-disinformation-twitter
What does “Hamilton 68” do? In its own words it firstly “shows tweets from official Russian propaganda outlets in English, and a short post discussing the themes of the day. This is Russia’s overt messaging.”
But it goes further than that. It does what I describe above. It tracks and stores information about others who have no connection to Russia but who “on their own initiative reliably repeat and amplify Russian themes.”
This is what the German Marshall Fund calls a “network” of second tier disinformation distributors.
What does this “network” of people with no connection to Russia but who amplify Russian “themes” do?
It “reflects Russian messaging priorities, but that does not mean every name or link you see on the dashboard is pro-Russian.
“The network sometimes amplifies stories that Russia likes, or people with like-minded views but no formal connection to Russia.”
So, according to the self-proclaimed Alliance for Securing Democracy you might not even know it when you are pushing Russian state propaganda!
Do you see what they are doing here?
They are using US and other government money in an effort to eliminate any news organization or individual who deviates from the official neocon foreign policy line on Russia, Syria, Ukraine, etc. They are trying to eliminate any information that challenges the neocon line. To criminalize it.
In fact they admit that they are seeking to silence alternative viewpoints:
“Our objective in providing this dashboard is to help ordinary people, journalists, and other analysts identify Russian messaging themes and detect active disinformation or attack campaigns as soon as they begin.
“Exposing these messages will make information consumers more resilient and reduce the effectiveness of Russia’s attempts to influence Americans’ thinking, and deter this activity in the future by making it less effective.”
The very Soviet-sounding “Alliance for Securing Democracy” project description ends with a suitably authoritarian warning, ripped from the pages of 1984, Darkness at Noon, or Stalin’s “how-to” guide:
“We are not telling you what to think, but we believe you should know when someone is trying to manipulate you. What you do with that information is up to you.”
[A manipulative poison pill statement in itself.
Of course they are telling you what to think by herding you into groupthink as the “safe zone” place to be — with “them” — by setting up preconceptions, and subtly insinuating the idea that “you’ll catch the cooties” if you read facts and information from English-speaking Russian sources, and other independent voices disagreeing with current US neocon foreign policies.
They patronizingly tell you that they know better than you do what’s good for you to know. A far more honest statement would have been something like “Read and know both sides of the issues.” These are the known facts,” etc. Truth- and fact-based persuasion to get people to think about what’s going on, and rationally change their minds is not the same as propagandistic manipulation. etc — KJ]
Back to McAdams: Chilling, no? And much of it is being done with your money by your government and in your name.
That is why the neocons and their myriad think tanks (government-funded in many cases) would like nothing more than to shut down our upcoming Peace and Prosperity 2017 Conference, to be held right at their front door!
( eventbrite.com/e/peace-and-prosperity-2017-where-were-going-and-how-well-get-there-tickets-36167049619 )
They cannot stand an open debate about Washington’s hyper-interventionist foreign policy.
They don’t want to talk about all their failed wars — and they really don’t want to talk about the wars they have planned and are pushing.
We are not the anti-Americans. They are. They hate the First Amendment. They hate debate. They hate us.
How can we fight back? One very easy way is to show them a full house at our conference! Just by showing up you are poking a neocon in the eye.
Can you imagine how furious they were when last year’s Peace and Prosperity Conference was broadcast on CSPAN?

American Conservative: Washington’s Addictive Foreign-Policy Drug
Why economic sanctions don’t help anyone.
By TED GALEN CARPENTER • August 1, 2017
Congress has overwhelmingly passed legislation imposing new economic sanctions on North Korea, Russia and Iran.
There was some speculation that President Trump might veto the measure, both because of concerns that it would prevent an improvement in America’s troubled relations with Moscow and because of stringent limitations imposed on the president’s ability to waive sanctions in the name of national security.
However, the White House announced that the president would sign the bill—perhaps reflecting just how much proponents of a new cold war with Russia have intimidated the Trump team.
The extent and virulence of anti-Russia sentiment has reached alarming levels. Members of Congress and other opinion leaders in both parties have branded the alleged Russian hacking of the 2016 election as an act of war, and one congressman even explicitly compared it to Pearl Harbor and 9-11.
Given such hysteria and the lopsided congressional vote in favor of the sanctions legislation, Trump’s reluctance to use his veto power was not necessarily a manifestation of political cowardice.
Only three House members and two senators (Rand Paul and Bernie Sanders) cast negative votes. Even Senator Mike Lee (R-Utah), who usually is sensible on foreign policy issues, joined the legislative lynch mob.
The enthusiasm for the latest sanctions initiative ignores the longtime unimpressive record of that tactic.
Some three decades ago, the seminal scholarly work of Gary Hufbauer, Jeffrey Schott, and Kimberly Ann Elliott, Economic Sanctions Reconsidered, demonstrated that sanctions rarely achieve their policy goal. More recent editions of the book confirm the basic conclusion.
Sanctions may inconvenience the targeted regime—and create substantial suffering for innocent people in that country—but they seldom compel the regime to capitulate or even make major concessions.
That is especially true when the issue in question is a high-priority matter for the country’s political leadership.
The track record in recent decades does very little to contradict that thesis. The United States and its allies have imposed ever-tightening sanctions on North Korea to force that country to give up its nuclear weapons and ballistic missile programs.
Pyongyang’s repeated nuclear tests and its recent launches of an intercontinental ballistic missile demonstrate the utter futility of the sanctions strategy.
Washington has been equally unsuccessful in using that tactic toward another adversary, Cuba. A succession of U.S. administrations, beginning with Dwight Eisenhower’s, maintained that approach for more than a half century before Barack Obama began to normalize relations with Havana in late 2014.
Unfortunately, President Trump rescinded several of the beneficial and realistic changes that his predecessor had made. Yet the results of the Cuba embargo were no more impressive than the outcome of sanctions against North Korea.
Washington’s demands that the Castro regime stop its human-rights abuses, move toward democracy, and compensate Americans for property seized following the 1959 revolution all failed to produce any discernible results.
The Castro dynasty remains in power, the Cuban regime is still a communist dictatorship, there has been no compensation for seized property, and the improvement in the treatment of political dissidents is minimal, at best.
Even the alleged success stories that sanctions proponents tout turn out to be unimpressive.
The Iran agreement is a prominent example. Sanctions may have played a modest role in getting Tehran to the conference table, but the agreement occurred only when the United States and the other P5+1 powers backed off of their demand that Iran capitulate and refrain from developing any capacity to enrich uranium.
The resulting agreement was very much a compromise measure, and hawks in the United States vehemently condemned it as a U.S.-led surrender to Iran.
Imposing harsh measures on Russia is especially worrisome. Moscow was quick to retaliate for congressional passage of the latest punitive package.
Vladimir Putin’s government immediately ordered a reduction in the size of America’s embassy staff in Moscow and seized several U.S. diplomatic properties.
Moreover, the argument that Russia’s actions were in response to the Obama administration’s similar steps in December 2016 misconstrues the situation.
Putin made a point of assuring President-elect Trump that he would not retaliate for the December penalties. But imposition of the new sanctions triggered a decisive policy change.
Economic sanctions appear to be the habitual favorite tool in Washington’s foreign policy tool kit. It provides the illusion of a moderate, middle course between a total reliance on diplomacy and resorting to military force.
Given that tactic’s pervasive lack of effectiveness, though, policymakers need to overcome their obsession. That is especially so when the underlying demands are completely unrealistic.
Sanctions will not compel North Korea to give up its nuclear and ballistic missile programs. Pyongyang’s leadership elite believes that it needs such capabilities to deter Washington from contemplating forcible regime change.
Given U.S. actions against such nonnuclear adversaries as Serbia, Iraq, and Libya, that is not an irrational conclusion.
Likewise, new sanctions against Tehran for violating “the spirit” of the P5+1 accord is thoroughly counterproductive. Even the Trump administration had to concede, however reluctantly, that Iran has abided by the actual terms of the agreement.
Imposing sanctions is not likely to cause President Rouhani’s relatively moderate government to become more cooperative.
Indeed, that step may strengthen the power of Iranian hardliners who wish to repudiate the agreement and move to build a nuclear deterrent.
Most worrisome of all, sanctions will only inflame Moscow and intensify an already worrisome new cold war.
Russia is not likely to concede that it meddled in America’s 2016 elections—and, in fact, there are serious doubts about those allegations.
The chances that Russia will abandon its secessionist allies in eastern Ukraine are not much better, and there is virtually no possibility that Russia will reverse its annexation of Crimea.
The chances of that happening are about the same as Israel giving up the Golan Heights or Turkey withdrawing from occupied northern Cyprus and repudiating the puppet Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus.
Economic sanctions have the dubious quality of being simultaneously provocative and ineffectual. The latest manifestation likely will cause serious trouble for the United States on multiple fronts.
Policymakers need to overcome their addiction to sanctions before it produces an immense tragedy.

Dearest Brother Nathanael,
Thanks for reminding me of how much I abhor the sight and sound of Chuckie Schumer (I tend to use a slightly different consonant to pronounce his name – one that rhymes w/”Chuckie”(think banana-fanna-fo-fanna).
Oh, and that shill, fly in the healthcare ointment, John McShame who just refuses to go gently into that good night. Is he over yet?
It’s difficult sleeping at night given all the political unrest and exceeding levels of total depravity, degradation, corruption, manipulation, control and lies existing at every tier and level within our so-called government. We remain in the grips of a diabolical Zio-ANTI-Christ stranglehold.
The prognosis is not good. That is, until the Lord returns. Getting the Gospel out is all that matters these critical days.
Meanwhile, thank you for your work and for speaking the truth in love in ever so many creative ways as usual, Brother Nathanael.
God Bless you. (donation soon).
Pat Buchanan: Is Trump’s Russia Policy Being Hijacked?
In crafting the platform in Cleveland on which Donald Trump would run, America Firsters inflicted a major defeat on the War Party.
The platform committee rejected a plank to pull us deeper into Ukraine, by successfully opposing new U.S. arms transfers to Kiev.
Improved relations with Russia were what candidate Trump had promised, and what Americans would vote for in November.
Yet, this week, The Wall Street Journal reports:
“The U.S. Pentagon and State Department have devised plans to supply Ukraine with antitank missiles and other weaponry and are seeking White House approval … as Kiev battles Russia-backed separatists … Defense Secretary Mattis has endorsed the plan.”
As pro-Russia rebels in East Ukraine have armored vehicles, Kiev wants U.S. tank-killing Javelin missiles, as well as antiaircraft weapons.
State and Defense want Trump to send the lethal weapons.
This is a formula for a renewed war, with far higher casualties in Ukraine than the 10,000 dead already suffered on both sides.
And it is a war Vladimir Putin will not likely allow Kiev to win.
If Ukraine’s army, bolstered by U.S. weaponry, re-engages in the east, it could face a Moscow-backed counterattack and be routed, and the Russian army could take permanent control of the Donbass.
Indeed, if Trump approves this State-Defense escalation plan, we could be looking at a rerun of the Russia-Georgia war of August 2008.
Then, to recapture its lost province of South Ossetia, which had seceded in 1992, after Georgia seceded from Russia, Georgia invaded.
Putin sent his army in, threw the Georgians out, and recognized South Ossetia, as John McCain impotently declaimed, “We are all Georgians now!”
Wisely, George W. Bush ignored McCain and did nothing.
But about this new arms deal questions arise.
As the rebels have no aircraft, whose planes are the U.S. antiaircraft missiles to shoot down?
And if the Russian army just over the border can enter and crush the Ukrainian army, why would we want to restart a civil war, the only certain result of which is more dead Ukrainians on both sides?
The Journal’s answer: Our goal is to bleed Russia.
“The point of lethal aid is to raise the price Mr. Putin pays for his imperialism until he withdraws or agrees to peace. … The Russians don’t want dead soldiers arriving home before next year’s presidential election.”
Also going neocon is Mike Pence. In Georgia this week, noting that Russian tanks are still in South Ossetia, the vice president not only declared, “We stand with you,” he told Georgians the U.S. stands by its 2008 commitment to bring them into NATO.
This would mean, under Article 5 of the NATO treaty, that in a future Russia-Georgia clash the U.S. could find itself in a shooting war with Russia in the South Caucasus.
Russia’s security interests there seem clear. What are ours?
Along with Trump’s signing of the new sanctions bill imposed by Congress, which strips him of his authority to lift those sanctions without Hill approval, these developments raise larger questions.
Is President Trump losing control of Russia policy? Has he capitulated to the neocons? These are not academic questions. For consider the architect of the new arms package, Kurt Volker, the new U.S. Special Representative for Ukraine Negotiations.
A former CIA agent, member of the National Security Counsel, and envoy to NATO, Volker believes Russian troops in Transnistria, Abkhazia, South Ossetia, Crimea, Donetsk and Luhansk are all there illegally — and U.S. policy should be to push them out.
A former staffer of Sen. McCain, Volker was, until July, executive director of the neocon McCain Institute. He has called for the imposition of personal sanctions on Putin and his family and European travel restrictions on the Russian president.
In the Journal this week, “officials” described his strategy:
“Volker believes … that a change in Ukraine can be brought only by raising the costs for Moscow for continued intervention in Ukraine. In public comments, he has played down the notion that supplying weapons to Ukraine would escalate the conflict with Russia.”
In short, Volker believes giving antitank and antiaircraft missiles to Ukraine will bring Putin to the negotiating table, as he fears the prospect of dead Russian soldiers coming home in caskets before his 2018 election.
As for concerns that Putin might send his army into Ukraine, such worries are unwarranted.
Volker envisions a deepening U.S. involvement in a Ukrainian civil war that can bleed and break Russia’s Ukrainian allies and convince Putin to back down and accept what we regard as a just settlement.
Does Trump believe this?
Does Trump believe that confronting Putin with rising casualties among his army and allies in Ukraine is the way to force the Russian president to back down and withdraw from Crimea, Luhansk and Donetsk, as Nikita Khrushchev did from Cuba in 1962?
What if Putin refuses to back down, and chooses to confront?

Israeli soccer team targeted in ‘anti-Semitic’ Polish attack
•Aug 3, 2017, 10:00 AM
Masked soccer hooligans attacked staff members traveling with an Israeli soccer team following a friendly match in Poland, in what the Israeli Embassy said Thursday was an “anti-Semitic incident.”
Two men were slightly injured in the attack, which occurred Wednesday evening in Suchocin, a town near Warsaw, following a friendly between the Israeli club Hapoel Petah Tikva and a local Polish club, MKS Ciechanow.
The Israeli club said the assault occurred at a stadium after the game finished, when most of the players had returned to their hotel. It said a number of fans of Legia Warszawa, a Warsaw club, “emerged from the adjacent forest with their faces covered (and) came on the field and began assaulting.”
Brother N, I love your singing vids…

Re: “Israeli soccer team targeted in ‘anti-Semitic’ Polish attack…”
Well lets hope that’s the beginning. Sorry we’ve gotten to that point. One thing we are learning is the Poles are leading Europe in guts and the ones that are standing up the most.
I completely agree with +BN and his critique of PCR. Whats the point if you dont have the guts to name names like +BN does?
One more I do want to point out is because of its popularity. Zerohege. While still a great source of info I’m am totally convinced agent provocateur. Why haven’t all ZH ers (and yes it is quite a cult there) figured out that the ONLY mention of 9-11 I have ever seen is when .gov was pushing the “Saudis did it” meme. That is for a me one of the tell tale signs.
And then another clue was this week, putting the “anti-boycott Israel” story hidden at the top column. If you know ZH, if it’s there, its kind of a “Yea we put it up but we really didnt want you to see it.”
When the Tylers put a story up at the top read and leave it, that tells you they think its important. That was! They semi-buried it. And why does ZH always quote, From Reuters, From CNN, huh? If I think an entity is useless, corrupt I ignore it.
Sorry Zerohedge is part of the tribe. Careful there.

RT: ‘Full-fledged economic war’: Medvedev slams Trump’s ‘humiliating’ cave-in on Russia sanctions
The US establishment has fully outwitted Donald Trump and used his administration’s weakness to declare a fully-fledged economic war on Russia, Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev has said, adding, that the move leaves no doubt that bilateral ties will never improve.
On Wednesday, Donald Trump signed into law a bill imposing new sanctions on Russia, which Medvedev says has put an end to “hopes for improving our relations with the new US administration.”
“It is a declaration of a full-fledged economic war on Russia,” he wrote in a lengthy strong-worded Facebook post in both English and Russian. “Unless a miracle happens,” the law will affect US-Russian relations for decades, Medvedev wrote.

The US President’s signing of the package of new Russia sanctions ends hopes for improving our relations
http://www.facebook.com/Dmitry.Medvedev/posts/10154587161801851 …
3:34 PM – Aug 2, 2017
Warning Washington of a “few consequences,” the Russian prime minister called out the White House’s “weakness” and inability to withstand internal political pressure.
The “Trump administration has shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to Congress in the most humiliating way,” Medvedev wrote.
“This changes the power balance in US political circles,” Medvedev wrote, asserting that the US establishment’s end game is to remove Trump from office.
The American political elite, Medvedev said, is not interested in Trump’s pragmatic approach or the interests of US multinationals who spoke out against any new sanctions.
“New steps are to come, and they will ultimately aim to remove him from power. A non-systemic player has to be removed,” Medvedev underlined.
“This legislation is going to be harsher than the Jackson-Vanik amendment as it is overarching and cannot be lifted by a special presidential order without Congress’ approval. Thus, relations between Russia and the United States are going to be extremely tense regardless of Congress’ makeup and regardless of who is president,” Medvedev outlined.
Dmitry Medvedev ✔ @MedvedevRussiaE
The US establishment fully outwitted Trump.
The President is not happy about the sanctions, yet he could not but sign the bill
3:42 PM – Aug 2, 2017
Russia, which has been under a raft of US sanctions for decades, “will cope” with the new measures and will focus on further developing its economy and social sector, Medvedev said.
Trump signed the ‘Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act’ despite noting that the “legislation is significantly flawed” while criticizing Congress for forcing his hand.
Virginia State Senator Richard Black believes the the new law, which also targets Iran and North Korea, will inflict tremendous damage on how the US conducts its foreign policy.
Interview: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-PJRUiMdo8
“It was a very, very bad bill. It was ridiculous. It was confrontational. It interfered with foreign relations in an unprecedented way,” Black told RT.
But despite deficiencies in the legislation, Black says Trump had no choice but to bow to political pressure.
“He [Trump] really had no choice, he was stuck with it… there is no way that he could overwrite [override] it. He could not get a veto sustained,” the state senator said.
“It is Congress that is starting a trade war, not the president. The president opposes the trade war, and yet he is forced into one,” Black noted.
“At the heart of this whole thing is the desire to stop the Nord Stream 2 gas project… to benefit American manufacturers,” of American Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG), Black told RT.
The Russian foreign ministry has meanwhile said that by signing the bill, Washington has embarked on a “dangerous policy, fraught with the erosion of [global] stability, for which Moscow and Washington bear a special responsibility.”
Maintaining that Moscow “reserves the right to other countermeasures,” apart from the expulsion of US diplomats, the ministry made clear that Russia will always follow its national interests despite any economic pressure.
Russian MFA:
“The American’s love of sanctions that plunged the United States into Russophobic tantrums are long overdue to get rid of illusions, and to understand, that no threats or attempts to exert pressure can force Russia to change its course or sacrifice its national interests,” the ministry emphasized.

RT: ‘Trump no puppet’: Russian MP backs Medvedev’s trade war statement
Published time: 3 Aug, 2017 11:22
A senior Russian lawmaker told reporters that US President Donald Trump had “shown his real face” in signing a fresh sanctions bill against Russia, adding that PM Dmitry Medvedev was right when he called the current state of relations a trade war.
“Defining all this as a trade war is very right and correct. The masks are off – Trump has shown his true face. For him US interests are the only thing that matters.
“America needs markets to sell its products, they don’t need Ukraine and have no interest in the Crimean issue – these are all invented excuses that allow them to slap sanctions on Russia and clear the markets for the US companies producing energy resources and weapons,” the first deputy chairman of the State Duma Committee for Defense and Security, Aleksandr Sherin, said in comments with Life.ru news site.
“Trump is no puppet. That is just a convenient position – he pretends to be a very kind person with a good attitude to Russia who experiences pressure from ‘hawks’ in the Senate and is forced to take harsh measures. Trump is simply shifting the blame.” he added.
“From the very beginning Trump could not meet with the Russian president – he had set out different priorities for himself.
“When they eventually met they talked for two hours and after that Trump signs another bill, thus ending the discussion if he intended to improve the relations with Russia or to continue the economic war against our country,” Sherin stated.
The comment came shortly after Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev published a statement on his Facebook page, saying that by signing the bill that allows for new sanctions against Russia the US president had destroyed all hope for improvement in bilateral ties.
“It is a declaration of a fully-fledged economic war on Russia, unless a miracle happens,” Medvedev wrote.
He also warned the US side of a “few consequences,” and blasted the White House for showing weakness and inability to withstand internal political pressure.
The “Trump administration has shown its total weakness by handing over executive power to Congress in the most humiliating way,” Medvedev wrote.
On Wednesday, Trump signed the bill imposing new sanctions on Russia (and also on Iran and North Korea), simultaneously stating that the motion was “seriously flawed” and blasting the US Congress for applying tremendous pressure on himself in order to see the bill signed into law.

What say you +BN re Dinesh D’Souza the beleaguered “conservative”?
IMHO the tribe got to him and so he is transferring the blame for the current “fascist” MSM/deep-state antics that is really the product of the Talmudic Jew, Marx, unto the goyisha kops, Hitler, the always convenient scapegoat.
Perhaps he has skeletons in his closet and he is blackmailed like David Brock.

Looks like the Jews/deep state are panicking and are desperate to control the narrative and stop the truth emerging.
1) They have demonetized YouTube videos
2) They have banned revisionist books in Amazon
3) They are cutting off on-line payments via vehicles like Pay-Pal. A.F.P. is also a victim of this
4) Google is now changing the algorithms so that it is much harder to find websites and videos that contain what they Google deem controversial religious and political views.

Americans here should call their DC rip-off-resentatives and let them know your displeasure.
It’s a numbers game folks and we’ve been lazy about letting the Jews dictate the numbers.
For their part the Jews are always quick to pounce on any sign of weakness.
You can also call the Russian Embassy in DC and let them know you’re an American who likes President Putin.
The receptionist is kind of a dud but you can be sure she’ll pass the word upstairs.
Throughout history-what did our ancestors draw inspiration from?
I know they had to have had better resources than socialist media sites like Jewbook and the latest Hollyweird corporate propaganda garbage.
@Henry Ford Was Right!
Question or statement?
As a question we here at RJN would agree the blessing 2000 years ago upon the Holy Lands.
Prior to which I understand were time immemorial of paganism & idols.
There are aspects of modern man which would be quite at home B.C. years ago.
The fascination the masses have for “Social networking media” at the expense of piety is and will have it’s consequences.
@Citzenfitz
“Americans here should call their DC rip-off-resentatives and let them know your displeasure.”
No my friend I think we are past that. I think they will laugh at us.
I prefer someday, and I can dream, we let the CON gress critters and the press-ti-tutes in the media like a Rex Chapman in the Chicago Tribune or entire editorial board know:
First I will give you a trip to O’Hare airport. Pack your luggage, your family and I will pay for your flight to Donbass or Damascus.
You want a war so bad you and your family go to the front lines!! Period end of paragraph!
Second write them all. Tell them, Next false flag, no ifs ands or buts, I’m going first to your door. And I will hunt you down like a rabid dog.
Come on folks. It pains me we have gotten to this point. I have never and would rather not hurt a flea. I know everyone here just wants to live their life right? I do. But i live in the heart of a bankrupt “target” if you will, run by a dual citizen Talmudic Mossad agent.
I don’t like waking up everyday wondering, will this be the day? Call me crazy, I don’t think I am, and how that work out for the likes of Susan Lindauer? God bless her soul.
Why the Russian sanctions are so significant is you need to understand Brother Nathanael’s video regarding Cynthia McKinney’s tale of the Letter of 76. +BN if you havent please reach out to this wonderful woman! She is a true hero.
Lets not let her fight go in vain! All of us ! Her, BN, the likes of Ken O’Keefe, (although he may piss you off) Henry Makow, Jeff Rense, Scottie Spencer all put their lives on the line for us!
The sanctions should tell you everything! They only work for Is-ra-hell ! No ! we are beyond “letting them know our displeasure”. (?) The only way this nonsense stops, is we let them know, “I go down, I’ll be damned, but I’m taking you with me.”
Sorry guys I’ve just had it with this bullshit. Lets all just get along
So true, Rev 2:9….
JooToob (owned by Joogle) has been upping their trickery the past few years: letting you think your comment’s been posted when in fact you’re the only one who can see it.
Hiding other people’s posts in your thread (posts that don’t follow the Joo narrative) so that no one else can see them. Harassing channel owners who don’t parrot the Joo narrative with various threats….
Joogle reviews has begun pulling the same stunt. Letting you see your review as though it’s posted when in fact it hasn’t.
If JooToob/Joogle knows who Citizenfitz is then it’s just a matter of time before they yank Brother Nate’s channel.
Bro Nathanael, I am confused.
Why would you say Dr Roberts is a fraud? He certainly is not anti-Russian or anti-Putin, etc.
He may be a little light on Zionism and Israel. Because he doesn’t go after them in a big way, he certainly names names and spells out the AIPAC crowd. He is a believer that the cabal involves more than Jews, Israel and Zionism. And he is correct there, Bro.

Shortly after 11:00 AM, Wednesday August 2, 2017 US President Donald Trump declared full scale economic war on Russia. Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev is joined by millions of us who’ve now lost all hope of peace and reconciliation in the world. Cold War II is on.
Dmitry Medvedev attacked Trump’s decision to sign the bill in the same way most of us analysts will, chastising the US President after his clear bow to a US Congress unified in its hysteria against Vladimir Putin’s Russia.
But the Russian Prime Minister did not delve into just “why” Trump is praying to the altar of neo-conservatism today. Trump feigned disagreement with sections of the law his team said are “unconstitutional”, but the force behind these sanctions on Russia, Iran, and North Korea is hidden.
Let me enlighten you on what is really taking place in Washington.
Two days ago, a close colleague of mine was on the line from Greenwich, Connecticut to discuss my upcoming book when the conversation turned to these new Russia sanctions. My colleague related a story from Capital Hill and an insider who explained the vote on the sanctions law.
The gist of this insider’s revelation was that the overwhelming “yes vote” in Congress indicated one powerful player behind the curtain – America’s pro-Israel lobby AIPAC.
When I heard AIPAC stood behind, my mind immediately reverted to images and sound bites of Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu. Their mutual gratification society handshakes, the syrupy sweetness of the Israeli’s recollections on young Trump – and then I thought on the Saudi arms deal and the wider frame of the Arab Spring.
Sorry to consolidate so many facets here, but if Trump and all of Washington has acquiesced totally to the will of AIPAC, then America is all done. Looking again at Russia’s Medvedev:
“Trump’s administration has demonstrated total impotence by surrendering its executive authority to Congress in the most humiliating way.”
The point of this new sanctions law is revealed simply. If AIPAC controls the Unites States Congress, and if the President of the United States has surrendered his executive authority to that body, then the Israeli lobby controls the Government of the United States – lock stock and barrel.
In other words, a foreign sovereign nation and ideology rules America – and it rules it with impunity.
Turning to the law itself, even the Trump administration admitted there are sections that are “unconstitutional,” which means illegal. “Illegal!” Is a Barack Obama infused Supreme Court going to overturn the law? This question is rhetorical, for no justice will ever even read through this law.
Looking at the Israel lobby and the Zionist influence on America overall, it’s becoming stunningly clear “legality” has little to do with American policy either internally or internationally.
When I heard AIPAC was “all in” on this law, I did a two minute analysis of their digital and social media footprint. It’s important to run down the lobby’s online rhetoric here. The website is replete with Trump administration ambassadors and evangelists for Israel “likes,” as well as Congressional “yes men” who I found to be key in pushing this law down our throats.
The Twitter feed of AIPAC the last few weeks reads like an online gambling casino SPAM attack. And until this sanctions bill was signed by Trump, the scrolling Twitter message from AIPAC endeavored to lump Russia in with marginalized Iran and North Korea – today the feed reverts to bashing the Palestinians.
With Russia now “punished” for foiling the “Syria plan” with more crippling sanctions, the Zionists are hot on the trail of destroying funding from America for Palestinians.
The controversial AIPAC pressure to pass the so-called Taylor Force Act, is being pressed in in order to ruin $300 million annually in U.S. economic support to the Palestinian cause.
Reverting back to the Russia sanctions law though, the Israelis tout every supporter in Washington and aboard who bends to its will. A Tweet retweeted by AIPAC from Senator Bob Menendez is emblematic:
“Russia, Iran & NK cant violate int’l order w/o consequence. Proud many sanctions I wrote included in bipartisan bill”
Menendez is a lunatic in my view. The New Jersey Senator’s efforts to please the Israel lobby in the bag today, the member of Foreign Relations Committee is out to strip Russia of the upcoming FIFA World Cup today. This Tweet reveals the deep state seemingly bent on all out war on Russia.
“#ICYMI FIFA must dismiss Russia as host of @FIFAWorldCup if forced labor reports are true. Ignoring them=complicity”ttps
Some may recall that Menendez is the senator who was indicted in federal corruption charges involving convicted South Florida Dr. Salomon Melgen, who was found guilty recently of sixty-seven criminal counts of fraud.
Menendez was turned down this month in his attempt to have a September trial postponed. He’s accused of taking bribes from Melgen, who allegedly paid him over $1 million.
Menendez gave a rousing speech at the 2017 AIPAC conference back in March. The last to speak at the Tuesday session of the conference, Menendez framed a future for us all without even meaning to. In his Netanyahu praising cap off, the New Jersey sellout offers this with regard to America’s intentions in the Middle East:
“I was proud to help secure our record breaking $38 billion Memorandum of Understanding you all advocated for it — an agreement that ensures that Israel’s defenses will remain unmatched in the region and that together, the United States and Israel will continue developing defense technologies of astounding sophistication, like Iron Dome, David’s Sling, and the Arrow-3 missile defense systems.”
“Record breaking!” The arrogance and cutting clarity of that stinks of money, control, and a militarism these new Russia sanctions signal.
Yes, Israel will be secure for a while, as secure as she was during the first Cold War. Armed to the teeth, with tentacles in every power structure in the western hemisphere and near Asia, a tiny nation is insulated from catastrophe, while surrounding neighbors burn.
Donald Trump just sealed a “record breaking” deal for Saudi Arabia to blast neighbors to hell. Now Iran is the psychosis for AIPAC and Israel. So, Russia must be penalized, and North Korea must be glued to an evil axis in order that Americans can identify.
AIPAC has exerted a massive pressure, and the message could not be more clear, the Zionists who control Israel are at the wheel.
Just read the list of speakers at the conference. Sen. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Sen. Democratic Leader Charles Schumer (D-NY), House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives Paul Ryan (R-WI), United States Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley, and Vice President of the United States Mike Pence stood tall in their unwavering support for Israel – no matter what.
With the unseeing and deaf American public preoccupied elsewhere, a free democracy has been taken over by the agnostic hierarchy of Zion. And Judaism is used as the cloak of invisibility and viability for the most evil and biased ideas on Earth.
Donald Trump threw his constituents under the bus this week.
But the American president’s crime will be registered when more trillions are spent uselessly on weapons, and when the souls of innocent dead reach God.
This sanctions law ruined all of our work to restore moderation and peaceful calm to a crisis ridden world.
I place fifty percent of the blame on the people behind this Israeli lobby, and the other fifty percent on the one man who might have prevented it.

US Sanctions — a Looney Tunes Bad Remake
F. William Enghdahl
The ever-so-wise members of the Congress of the United States have just passed one of the most bizarre pieces of legislation in US history.
Unilaterally, it makes illegal and severely punishable investments by European companies in international energy projects where Russia is involved. But it does far more.
Unlike earlier US sanctions acts, the EU countries were not even consulted on the new act.
It may well be that the bill, HR-3364: Countering Americas Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (sic) and its Senate counterpart will mark the irreversible decline of the United States as a global power and forge new ties between Russia, China, Iran and, yes, the major states of the EU including Germany.
What the Act says
First let’s see what the act, HR-3364, actually states.
In Title I, the part of the act dealing with Iran, the legislation states that the US President “shall impose the sanctions described…with respect to any person that the President determines
(1) knowingly engages in any activity that materially contributes to the supply, sale, or transfer directly or indirectly to or from Iran, or for the use in or benefit of Iran, of any battle tanks, armored combat vehicles, large caliber artillery systems, combat aircraft, attack helicopters, warships, missiles or missile systems, as defined for the purpose of the United Nations Register of Conventional Arms, or related materiel, including spare parts; or
(2) knowingly provides to Iran any technical training, financial resources or services, advice, other services or assistance related to the supply, sale, transfer, manufacture, maintenance, or use of arms and related materiel described…”
While this may seem aimed at Iran which is in no cited violation of international law and the fact that recently both US intelligence as well as the International Atomic Energy Agency declared Iran in compliance with the nuclear deal, a main target is also Russia.
With the lifting of US and EU sanctions by the Obama Administration in January 2016, Russia began talks with Tehran to supply up to $10 billion of Russian weapons systems including advanced tanks, artillery systems, planes and helicopters.
As well, sanctions removal allowed Russia to legally renegotiate delivery of its advanced anti-missile S-300 missile defense system which was done in August 2016.
The Iran section directly aims to block closer relations, including military, between Russia and Iran, a vital part of the emerging Eurasian economic space that Washington and the US Deep State feel so threatening to its power.
Let’s now look explicitly at the Russian section of the new act.
Title II: The Russian Section
The section on Russia was inserted into the original bill on Iran sanctions. It is called, TITLE II—SANCTIONS WITH RESPECT TO THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION AND COMBATING TERRORISM AND ILLICIT FINANCING.
Title II justifies its unprecedented new sanctions against Russia by citing a litany of the already sanctioned Crimea annexation and Russian alleged support of Ukraine separatists following the CIA-instigated February 2014 coup d’etat in Kiev, as well as unproven allegations of Russian hacking of Democratic National Committee data files during the 2016 US election campaign.
To sweeten the brew, Congress added Russia’s involvement in Syria, legal under international law, aiding the legitimate Assad government fighting ISIS and other terrorists.
Another justification for the unprecedented new Russia sanctions is cited as unnamed “human rights violators in the Russian Federation.” Of course, the “human rights violators” are to be determined as anyone Washington backs in CIA attempts at trying to foment a new NGO Color Revolution to block re-election of President Vladimir Putin in March 2018 elections.
Moreover, in a constitutionally dubious arrogation of power of the Executive, Congress mandates that the President no longer has executive authority to remove any Russian sanctions without first the approval of Congress.
“Oppose Nord Stream II Pipeline”
This Russian section of the Countering Americas Adversaries Through Sanctions Act, among other remarkable provisions, declares in Section 257:
Ukranian (sic) Energy Security that:
“It is the policy of the United States…to continue to oppose the Nord Stream 2 pipeline given its detrimental impacts on the European Union’s energy security, gas market development in Central and Eastern Europe, and energy reforms in Ukraine;”.
As the governments of Germany and Austria bluntly pointed out, with whom the EU countries decide to buy their natural gas is their business, not to be decided by Washington.
As reason for this extraordinary trampling on international law, Title II goes on, “…the United States Government should prioritize the export of United States energy resources in order to create American jobs, help United States allies and partners, and strengthen United States foreign policy.”
The new sanctions act as part of this effort gives the US Treasury the right to sanction or penalize European companies doing business with Gazprom on the proposed Nord Stream II pipeline into Germany.
Oops. Did I read the wrong act? The US President shall impose sanctions in order that the US can stop the EU-Gazprom Nord Stream II second pipeline construction that is soon to be completed, linking Vyborg in Russia with Griefswald in Germany and bypassing existing Soviet-era gas pipelines through the now-hostile US-run Ukraine?
He shall do this as part of a US jobs-creation policy?
Is this actually part of the current USA strategy, expressed repeatedly by the Trump Administration to “dominate the global energy market” including export of oil, shale gas as LNG, coal exports and nuclear power?
Much, much more subtitled Russian Mining and Railways, and Countering Russian Influence in Europe and Eurasia:
In brief, the new extraordinary Russian sanctions act openly calls for Color Revolutions, the CIA’s form of “fake democracy” using the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) and allied CIA or US State Department front NGOs to massively intervene in the internal affairs of the entire land space from the European Union to Eurasia.
This all should not surprise as the key figure in the US Senate credited with forging support for the Russian part of the new sanctions act is the patron saint of the NED and of virtually all US Color Revolutions, John McCain.

South Front: SECRET SAUDI WAR IN AL-AWAMIYAH
The British newspaper “the Independent” revealed several new details about the situation in the Al-Awamiyah town in the eastern region of Saudi Arabia.
The town has been under full siege by the Saudi Security Forces for three months, according to the report. Saudi security forces even even cut off electricity and water lines to the town.
Saudi security forces had stormed Al-Awamiyah after the Saudi government decided on May 10 to evacuate the residents of the town and to demolish the old part of it – Al-Moussawara district – under the pretext of developing the town.
The Saudi decision is believed to be a punishment for the town’s residents, who belong to the Shiite sect. Al-Awamiya is home for 30,000 Saudi Shiites.
Al-Awamiya is also a birthplace of Shiite Imam Nimr Baqir al-Nimr, who had been leading widespread protests in Al-Awamiya town and the eastern region of Saudi Arabia against the Saudi government and called for reforms since 2011 before the Saudi authorities executed him on January 2, 2016.
The Saudi authorities have already demolished large parts of Al-Awamiyah. Only 3000-5000 civilians remain in the town. Some of them are anti-government armed activists, according to the Independent report.
25 people, including at least 12 civilians, have been killed since Saudi security forces began its attack on the town. Security forces have deployed snipers and armored vehicles in the town, which turned into a battlefield, according to the report.
“I was a peaceful protester, most of us in Awamiyah were, until the government decided to list us as wanted terrorists. All we did was maintain calls for reform. Because we were not afraid of the regime, they targeted the whole city,” an anti-government armed activist told the Independent.
“We will kill your father and throw his head between your legs,” Saudi forces allegedly told his daughter after raiding his home in Al-Awamiyah.
“We had no choice. Defending our lives and our women is a duty. Houses have been destroyed by bombs, heavy shooting, RPGs… everyone is a target,” the activist added.
The number of Shiites in Saudi Arabia is 2.25 million that makes up 15% of the Saudi population. Saudi Arabia’s oil-rich Eastern Region is the heartland of the Saudi Shiites.
[Most of the labor in oil fields and refineries making the Saudi Family obscenely rich and providing cheap oil for Jewmerican consumption is done by the chronically oppressed KSA’s Shi’ite oil workers. KSA Shi’ites have for years been the target of ethnic cleansing and genocide by the Sunni Wahabi Saudi authorities
Doesn’t seem to be any complaints from Congress about the Israel-loving Saudi king shelling and bombing his own minority 2nd class subjects for their decades of activism attempting to improve their civil rights condition inside the kingdom.]
The Saudi Shiites suffer from the Saudi government’s persecution because Saudi Arabia’s key ideology is Wahhabism which is considered an anti-Shiite ideology.
When the Arab Spring started, the Saudi Shiites began demanding their rights, and the Saudi authorities responded wiith tougher measures against the country’s minority. However, Saudi Shiites have little ties to Iran. Furthermore, they support Saudi Arabia’s position on the Syrian crisis.
The Independent report indicates that the Saudi security operation in Al-Awamiyah may be one of the results of the US President Trump’s visit to Saudi Arabia. The operation began after the Islamic-American summit in Riyadh.
It seems that the Saudi government may have got a green light from the United States, which certainly wants to keep the Saudi oil-rich areas under control and away from any Iranian influence.

WHITE PHOSPHORUS:
US-led coalition used illegal banned white phosphorus on civilians in Syria – Damascus to UN
The Syrian foreign ministry has, in correspondence to the United Nations, accused the US-led coalition of new atrocities against its civilians. It includes an attack on hospital in Raqqa and the use of “internationally banned white phosphorus munitions” against the Syrian people.
USA, CIA GUILTY of WAR CRIMES:
President Donald Trump has now admitted the GUILT of the CIA.
USA must PAY COMPENSATION to SYRIA to REBUILD their Country.
$ 2 TRILLION should be a good start.
What about all the Innocent civilians and their houses.
What about all the STOLEN OIL.
Trump to end CIA program to arm and train anti-Assad ISIS TERRORISTS.
Renewing its calls to “immediately dissolve” the coalition which Damascus considers illegitimate, the ministry wrote two letters; one addressed to the UN Secretary General and the other to the Chairman of the UN Security Council, Syria’s state news agency SANA reported Sunday.
‘Illegitimate coalition’ must pay for destroying Syria – Damascus to UN
Citing the ministry statement, the report said the military alliance led by Washington had bombed residential neighborhoods and civilian houses, as well as destroying a national hospital in Raqqa, where the coalition is extensively backing the fight against the Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) terrorist group.
Damascus also claimed the coalition had violated international humanitarian law by deploying white phosphorus munitions in its attacks which targeted “innocent Syrian people in the provinces of Raqqa, Hasaka, Aleppo, Deir Ezzor and other Syrian cities,” SANA reported.
Such actions represent war crimes and crimes against humanity, the agency cited the ministry as saying in its communication to the UN.
“Syria renews its call to immediately dissolve the coalition which was established outside the framework of the UN and without requesting permission from the Syrian government,” the statement added.
The WAR in SYRIA is all about OIL and GAS PIPELINE.

Japan Calls For Denuclearized World On 72nd Anniversary Of Hiroshima
August 6, 201710:29 AM ET
On Sunday, Japan marked 72 years since the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima, destroying a portion of the city and its inhabitants, and heralding the end of World War II.
About 50,000 people, including representatives from 80 nations, gathered for an annual ceremony at Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park Sunday, reports The Japan Times.
Prime Minister Shinzo Abe called for global cooperation to end nuclear weapons.
“For us to truly realize a world without nuclear weapons, the participation of both nuclear weapon states and non-nuclear weapon states is necessary,” he said.
Last month, the United Nations reached its first agreement to ban nuclear weapons. But Japan, along with the nine nuclear-armed nations, including the United States, refused to take part in the negotiations and the vote.
Critics of the treaty, including the United States, say it does nothing to counter the “grave threat posed by North Korea’s nuclear program.”
Member states can sign the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons next month; if ratified, it will be put into effect 90 days later, reports The New York Times.
Japan already adheres to a policy of not possessing, producing or allowing nuclear weapons on its territory. It is the only country to have ever come under nuclear attack.
72 years ago
On Aug. 6, 1945, the atomic bomb dropped by the Enola Gay Boeing B-29 detonated, killing an estimated 140,000 people.
Three days later, the U.S. dropped a second bomb on the city of Nagasaki, killing an estimated 75,000. Within weeks, Japan surrendered.
Last year, then-President Obama became the first U.S. president to visit Hiroshima, where he called for an end to nuclear weapons. That visit provoked the ire of then-candidate Trump.
“Does President Obama ever discuss the sneak attack on Pearl Harbor while he’s in Japan? Thousands of American lives lost,” Trump tweeted.
So far, the Trump administration has focused on a denuclearized North Korea over a denuclearized world.
In February Trump told Reuters that “if countries are going to have nukes, we’re going to be at the top of the pack.”
Sanctions appear to be the current international tool of choice for taking on North Korea.
A day before the Hiroshima anniversary, the United Nations Security Council unanimously voted to impose new sanctions on North Korea over last month’s long-range missile tests.
On Sunday, U.N. Secretary General António Guterres issued a message calling for the United States and other nuclear-armed countries to do more to rid the world of nuclear weapons.
“(O)ur dream of a world free of nuclear weapons remains far from reality. The states possessing nuclear weapons have a special responsibility to undertake concrete and irreversible steps in nuclear disarmament.”

You know why the Jew deep state is terrified of Trump?
Because they know Trump knows they did 9/11.
Trump is the impetus that could turn the USA and the world against the Jews.
The Jews have pushed way too hard way too much and they are terrified of the backlash. As long as Trump is in power, on any day it could all change.
Trump has tremendous leverage over the Jew. This is why they are so desperate to destroy him.
Champion warrior for truth and seeker of historical justice for the German people, Ernst Zündel, died on Saturday, August 5, at his home in Bad Wildbad, Germany.
He was 78.
Zündel grew up in an apolitical family and knew scarcely any Jews.
He said of the origins of his beliefs, “The absolute God’s honest truth is that it was a reaction to the incessant anti-German propaganda stereotyping the Germans.”
Rest in peace, dear Ernst Zündel.
Russia Insider: Australia Begins Questioning Its Geopolitical Alliance With the US
With all the disastrous wars the US has led her into over the last 20 years, this should come as no surprise
Greg Maybury
[For us] it is one thing to remain a good friend, but too close an embrace will lead Americans and others to resurrect the “deputy sheriff” tag.
The Americans have always put their own interests first and will continue to do so; we should follow their example. American interests will not always be the same as Australian and vice versa.
The bottom line, however, is the domestic political one. Australians are afraid of the outside world and convinced of their inability to cope with it.
Any Australian government which suggested that we do without a great and powerful friend to look after us would have to consider the electoral implications.’ Source: Cavan Hogue — fmr. Ambassador and Dep. Permanent Representative when Australia was last on the UN Security Council.
He has also served as head of mission in Mexico, Kuala Lumpur, Moscow and Bangkok, along with other posts. He is an Adjunct Professor in International Communication at Macquarie University, Sydney.
The Brief: By and large, the Australian-U.S. alliance is considered by the majority of political, policy, and media elites on both sides of the Pacific Pond to be mutually beneficial, indeed essential.
But behind this pact, like as with so many countries with economic, strategic and/or military ties to the empire du jour, there is a downside, one rarely acknowledged — and when it is, often rejected — in public discourse.
More Australians though are beginning to express considerable concern (a reality borne out by recent PEW research findings). This mindset is precipitated in no small measure by the increasingly heavy-handed influence the U.S. seeks to exert globally.
This is exemplified as much by its well-documented interference in the affairs of other countries and its propensity for imposing its frequently self-serving economic and strategic agenda on the international community.
Along with examining why Australia might benefit from re-assessing the oft-presumed benefits of this partnership, and from there, seeking a more independent pathway, we will also reveal some of the past history of this complex, and for the U.S. in the ongoing pursuit of its hegemonic (global) ambition, sure to be a increasingly vital, geopolitical partnership.
When it comes to my country Australia, to the extent that less worldly Americans might think about it, amongst the first things likely to come to mind are kangaroos, convicts, koala bears, and Crocodile Dundee.
Far beyond just broadening folks’ geographical awareness and cultural horizons, the following should provide a deeper appreciation of how our past history has fatefully intertwined with that of their own country.
In so many cases this shared past has been to our detriment, our involvement in Korea, Vietnam for example, with Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, and Yemen being more recent notable examples.
As we’ll see such “detriment” includes one momentous and consequential CIA-inspired gambit in 1975 that culminated in the ousting of our then duly elected prime minister (PM).
In short, it was a coup d’état, the hammer in the U.S. foreign policy toolbox, the resort to which being a recurring theme in the Washington playbook.
In a recent interview with the Intercept’s Jeremy Scahill, renowned author and historian Alfred McCoy touched on this very subject.
McCoy was speaking with Scahill to promote his forthcoming book In the Shadows of the American Century: The Rise and Decline of US Global Power, the title itself suggesting that it’s this “playbook” which has contributed significantly to the titular “decline”.
Citing numerous examples, McCoy went on to say that,
‘all around the globe…any time that there was a serious electoral contest in which the outcome was critical to our geopolitical interests, the U.S. was intervening.’ [Emphasis added.]
With the allegations of Russian interference in the 2016 election now a self-replicating meme, the profound irony of McCoy’s statement should not be lost on anyone!
In a recent piece I also examined Uncle Sam’s decades-long penchant for coups and colour revolutions. Perhaps the least known ‘beneficiaries’ though of America’s well-documented regime renovation gambits involves Australia.
As with the Iranian coup of 1953, ably backed up on this occasion by British intelligence in the form of MI6, the CIA had their not always plausibly deniable prints all over the 1975 Constitutional Crisis that triggered the dismissal – the firing in effect — by the then Governor-General Sir John Kerr, of PM Gough Whitlam and his government.
As it turns out, the history of the CIA’s clandestine involvement in Australian politics is a story that is well documented.
But like so many of these things often are, it is a history that is far from familiar even to most Australians, let alone Americans. And insofar as the dismissal of Whitlam went, this was one of these situations where the indelible Henry Kissinger maxim prevailed:
‘I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go communist due to the irresponsibility of its people. The issues are much too important for the [Ed. Note: insert name of offending country here] voters to be left to decide for themselves.’
Few would argue that Australia was experiencing a “serious electoral contest” at the time of this crisis, and it was one that certainly qualified as “critical” to U.S. “geopolitical interests”.
In succumbing to its interventionist impulses however, whether America was justified in the covert actions it took is an entirely different matter.
The track record in so many other countries would lead most to suggest it wasn’t.
As Australia’s own dissident elder statesman and renowned filmmaker and investigative journalist John Pilger noted in a piece he wrote in 2014 eulogising on the death of Whitlam at age 94, Kerr was not just the “Queen’s man” in Australia; prior to being appointed as Australia’s head of state, he had “long standing ties” to both Britain’s MI6 and the CIA.
Whitlam, who assumed power in 1972 after twenty-three years of conservative rule by a coalition of the Liberal and then Country (now National) parties, tellingly a ruling clique increasingly viewed by many as too subservient to Washington, believed that a foreign power shouldn’t control his country’s resources or dictate its economic, military and foreign policies.

Interesting the Diane Feinstein smugness in the shadow of the all knowing, all wise Chuckie with the twisted tie (who dressed him, btw?).
Thank you for your insightful and prophetic commentary as usual.
The all out war on Christianity continues unabated until Christ’s glorious return! We serve a mighty, patient, just, and loving Lord who never slumbers nor sleeps. Mr. Putin knows this.
Thank you for all you do in helping educate us and for opening the eyes of the American public.

Most saddened to hear of your passing.
May your spirit live on in all true men and women.
R.I.P.
I’m sure many of you here can remember the Cold War much better than me (I was in Elementary School when the Berlin Wall fell).
And when I see all this controlled Zionist “Russia This, Russia That” crap, it reminds me of how those jerks used the threat and fear of nuclear war with Russia (while using tons of American dollars to give the USSR foreign aid at the same time back then) to terrify and control everybody through the use of their fear and propaganda machine.
The “Russia did it” crap is just Rockefeller/Rothschild NWO bs fear-mongering IMO.
All the Zionists NWO beast grid did was use the Cold War and Communism Vs. Capitalism to build their NWO system and fool a lot of people with fear based lies and deceit. People should’ve thrown their TVs out in the streets back then and boycotted the Jew media instead of rolling around in that fake garbage night and day.
I mean if America was fighting Communism then why do we have all 10 planks of it in daily practice in daily life here since at least the 1960s, and why would you ever keep on sending the USSR all that foreign aid if they were your bitter enemy like they did?
The Americans got shoah’d by the (((Manhattan))) propaganda mill as usual and Trumps out of (((Manhattan)) too, aka sosdd in American Ziopolitics.
My continued support of Putin & Russia and trying to explain to friends, acquaintances & others how Israel & Great Britain are the bad guys and we have taken up with the bad guys because our Congress is in bed via payoffs by Israel/Great Britain & lets throw Saudi Arabia in with them.
When not being paid off by the Jews, etc…they are being told to take payoffs or risk themselves or their family being assassinated.
My own brother who lives in my own town won’t talk to me. Other friends/acquaintances have disassociated themselves from me & my wife & others have tried to get me to have psychiatric evaluations.
But there are some who believe me and what you are saying. At a party of my fellow male friends in Oct 2016 we jokingly asked who we would elect President – and the Vote was 9 to 0 to elect Putin as President of the USA if we could.
So despite the majority of my sphere thinking I am literally insane, the group of knowledgeable people is growing. But the common man in our current day and throughout history has always been sheep being led to slaughter.

Even that Jewess Feinstein couldn’t look up while Schumer spewed his lies.
That tells you something.
The corrupt, greedy, covetous, avaricious, land-grabbing, thieving despicable, bloody-minded Jews are at it again.
Pushing for a lop-sided war against the Palestinians as usual.

Middle East Monitor: Israel steals important Jerusalem property deeds from Al-Aqsa
During the closure of Al-Aqsa Mosque last month, Israeli occupation authorities stole important documents from Al-Aqsa Mosque relating to Jerusalem’s properties and endowments, Felesteen.ps revealed yesterday.
Chairman of the Jerusalem International Centre Hassan Khater said that the Israeli occupation stole the documents from the “rooms, libraries, documentary archives” of Al-Aqsa Mosque when its forces were alone during the closure.
“Through these documents, the Israeli occupation is putting its hand on the endowments, properties and real estate of Jerusalem’s endowment department,” Khater said, noting that the theft of these documents is a “real disaster”.
He noted that these documents include “details, secrets and signatures”, adding that more than 90 per cent of Jerusalem’s Old City is part of these endowments.
Khater stressed that the “Israeli occupation’s ability to forge documents will harm the endowments of the city.”
He also expressed his fears that the Israeli occupation would use these documents to help carry out its Judaisation plans in the holy city, noting that Judaisation is “the main battle” between the Palestinians and the Israelis.

@KathJuliane
I’ve learned from a reliable European source that due to PRESSURE from Germany Congress had to add a clause to its legislation at the last minute that sanctions against countries doing business with Russia “cannot” be implemented “apart from consultation” with the EU.
That took the BITE out of the legislation.
That’s why after Trump signed the bill the UN Ambassador from Russia stated that the legislation “changes nothing.”
Indeed, the BITE had been TAKEN OUT:
Brussels said the most sensitive aspects of the bill from its perspective had been rolled back as a result of its interventions in Washington. In a German radio interview broadcast on Wednesday night, European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker noted that the US Congress had inserted a clause ensuring that sanctions could be imposed only in consultation with Washington’s allies. “I still assume that we are allies of the US,” he said.
Mr Juncker said he was satisfied “in principle” that the law had been defused. But he insisted that Brussels reserved the right to retaliate if new US sanctions against Moscow specifically penalised European companies that did business with Russian groups. “We are prepared,” he told ARD radio. “We must defend our economic interests vis-à-vis the US and we will.”
https://www.ft.com/content/dbb3dbc0-7791-11e7-90c0-90a9d1bc9691
“I stated at the G7 summit in Taormina, Italy, and at the G20 summit in Hamburg, Germany, that if the Americans proceeded [with the adoption of new sanctions], we would be ready to react adequately in a matter of days. As a result, a significant proportion of the intended sanctions against Russia have been dropped. Moreover, the US Congress has now also committed to only apply sanctions after the country’s allies are consulted. And I do believe we are still allies of the US”, President Juncker said.

Dear All,
Here’s a very timely and significant article by an excellent global analyst, Alexander Mercouris.
Now it remains to be seen if Trump White House pushes this into the Supreme Court or just rolls over.
However, even if Trump didn’t take it to SCOTUS, the presidential signing statement as Mercouris describes lays out the legal argument that another president could use, or else third parties, to push the matter into SCOTUS and overturn the sanctions bill.
Otherwise, Mercouris is on to something with his analysis:
http://theduran.com/trump-sidesteps-impeachment-trap-sanctions-law-prepares-challenge-supreme-court/
AND, by the way, Russia’s prime minister, Dmitri Medvedev, nailed Trump on his signing the sanctions bill:
“The Trump administration has demonstrated total impotence, handing over executive functions to Congress in the most humiliating way possible,” Mr. Medvedev wrote on Facebook. He added that “the American establishment has totally outplayed Trump” with the goal “to remove him from power.”

American Conservative: Pastor: God Blesses Trump Nuclear War — by Rod Dreher
Robert Jeffress, President Trump’s court pastor, hits bottom, digs.
“When it comes to how we should deal with evil doers, the Bible, in the book of Romans, is very clear: God has endowed rulers full power to use whatever means necessary — including war — to stop evil.
In the case of North Korea, God has given Trump authority to take out Kim Jong-Un.
I’m heartened to see that our president — contrary to what we’ve seen with past administrations who have taken, at best, a sheepish stance toward dictators and oppressors — will not tolerate any threat against the American people.
When President Trump draws a red line, he will not erase it, move it, or back away from it. Thank God for a President who is serious about protecting our country.”
This is obscene! God forbid that we should have to go to war at all, much less a nuclear war, which would be a catastrophe for humanity. But Jeffress ought to be praying against such a thing, not goading it on. What is wrong with him?!
Says conservative Evangelical writer Joe Carter:
Joe Carter @joecarter
I could be wrong, but I suspect there are zero evangelical pastors in North Korea encouraging their country’s leader to start a nuclear war.
8:47 PM – Aug 8, 2017
http://www.theamericanconservative.com/dreher/pastor-jeffress-god-blesses-trump-nuclear-war/
This fool, Jeffress, the wealthy pastor of the multi-million dollar evangelical Southern Baptist megachurch First Baptist Dallas in Texas, is guilty of Scripture abuse — taking Romans 13 completely out of context and cherry-picking verses.
As Trump’s main “spiritual mentor,” Jeffress justifies goading Trump to nuclear war with a bad reading of Romans 13, which says nothing about going to war to “punish evildoers” such as the president of North Korea. Who does Jeffress think he is? Oh, wait, he’s a very wealthy businessman in the megachurch trade, that’s who he thinks he is.
Romans 13 is all about the Christian’s duties to the state and obedience to good government. When written, it was in the context of Christian people living in the pagan Roman Empire with the civil government under the leadership of a pagan Caesar, under the authority of Roman civil law.
Nowhere in Romans is there authority or justification for war, especially not in Romans 13.
Because of Romans 13 (conditioned by Chapter 12), through the centuries Orthodox and Eastern Christians have endeavored to apply Apostle Paul’s principles wherever they resided and show loyalty to the state, whether living under Orthodox Christian (Byzantine Roman; Tsarist Russia) or foreign Catholic (Catholic kingdoms; Papal States), non-Christian (classic Roman, Persian, Arab and Muslim) and secular (Europe and America).
In 13:1 Paul explains that the source of civil government, of all authorities, that a Christian lives under is God, for He alone is sovereign.
In 13:3 The purpose of civil government is to produce a social order that is grounded in goodness, not evil, and Christians are called to labor for the common good and peace of that social order, even under non-Christian authorities. The government is, in fact, responsible in their administration of justice to punish evildoers under the rule of law.
In 13:5-7, Paul calls Christians to submit to good government, to obey both God and man for “conscience sake”, that is, not contrary to good Christian moral conscience, even if that government is not Christian itself. The Kingdom of Heaven and earthly kingdoms are called to work together. The Church and state for Paul are certainly distinct, but they are not separated or isolated from one another.
On the other hand, a government that upholds evil, even a nominally Christian one, and forcing it upon her people, violating and corrupting good conscience, is an abusive authority and in such cases, “we ought to obey God rather than men” (Acts 5:29).
Love fulfills the law (vv. 8, 10). A person who loves his neighbor will have no problem obeying a just government. Breaking God’s commandments fragments society. Expectation of future salvation through the glorious coming of Christ motivates us to vigilance and proper conduct (v. 11). The ‘night’ is this life under the influence of evil powers; ‘the day’ is the glorious coming of the Lord.
President Kim Jong-un is not under the civil authority of god-emperor Trump, pumped up by his “court pastor” Jeffrees who cuts apart Scripture and then rearranges it the way he wants it to say.
North Korea is its own country, and therefore Romans 13 does not apply. Trump had better shut up until he learns the difference between a warning, which Kim uttered in the face of Trump ratcheting up tensions, and a threat.
Even better, Trump ought to review why the US’s 1994 nuclear deal with North Korea failed, learn from it. Hint: it was the US that dropped the ball and caused this first agreement to collapse, and so it’s incumbent upon the US to make good where it previously failed.
If the US failed to uphold its end of the agreement conditions made exchange for North Korea abandoning its nuclear capabilities, then North Korea is under no obligation to keep it’s end of the deal when the US broke faith, and so they had the right to resume their nuclear programs.
In the meantime, Newsweek published this headline:
TRUMP’S WARNING TO NORTH KOREA HAS NUCLEAR WEAPONS EXPERTS CHUGGING WINE
President Donald Trump’s intimidating warning to North Korea Tuesday that threats from the Kim Jong-un regime “will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen” has outraged Republicans, Democrats, and nuclear weapons experts alike.

Antimedia: NBC’s Brian Williams: “Our Job Is to Scare People to Death” Over North Korea
(ZHE) — On Tuesday night MSNBC’s Brian Williams bluntly told his panel on the channel’s flagship prime time program, The 11th Hour, that “our job tonight actually is scare people to death” over North Korea.
The remarks came in the midst of a vigorous discussion which included Andrea Mitchell giving a detailed description of what the potential death toll on the Korean peninsula might be should a ballistic missile exchange occur.
The panel also included MSNBC contributor Malcolm Nance, to which Williams’ remarks were specifically directed.
In response to Williams’ unexpected and very revealing comment, Mitchell appeared to shake her head, though it’s unclear if she was approving or disapproving of what he actually said – there was no push back by the panelists or attempt to seek clarification on Williams’ words.
Though the world is currently witnessing a dangerous and escalating war of words between President Trump and the so-called hermit kingdom, mainstream media reporting has long been driven by simplistic fear mongering concerning the geopolitical dynamics driving tensions in the region.
The American public is generally woefully uneducated regarding to history of US-North Korean tensions and war.
According to the 20th century theologian and political commentator Reinhold Niebuhr, fear is a prime means which leading public institutions and elites utilize to keep the masses loyal.
Fear and sensationalized coverage is also good for ratings and advertising revenue.
Niebuhr says society’s “myth-makers” – an apt description of today’s major corporate media – constantly give us mere illusions divorced from truth:
“Rationality belongs to the cool observer, but because of the stupidity of the average man, he follows not reason, but faith, and the naive faith requires necessary illusion and emotionally potent oversimplifications which are provided by the myth-maker to keep the ordinary person on course.”
While the media’s job ought to be the at all costs investigative uncovering of truth and accurate analysis in its role as the Fourth Estate, Brian Williams apparently thinks it’s his and NBC’s job to induce constant fear in the public. He openly stated just that.
Last April, Williams was widely mocked on social media for his comments in response to Trump’s bombing Syria.
Responding to a Pentagon video which showed US cruise missiles being launched on an airfield in Syria, he said live on MSNBC that he found himself “tempted to quote the great Leonard Cohen: ‘I’m guided by the beauty of our weapons.”

Thanks for posting that.
It’s always funny how the Ziopress leaves out the past details and true history in their latest propaganda. I guess North Korea controlling their own money without a Rothschild-ran central bank makes them the boogie man (at least in the neocon snakes eyes) like Libya, and Iraq were (and Syria currently).
They want everybody to have a central bank so those Devils can put 666 chips in everybody when their false messiah (the Anti-Christ) comes to power. I’m sure the Anti-Christ, False Prophet, and Beast will all have shabat dinner at the Rotschilds mansions during that time frame as well.
Jewish bomb threat suspect in Israel offered services on dark web: U.S. authorities

The Israeli-American man accused of masterminding more than 200 bomb threats and hoax phone calls to Jewish community centers and schools — setting off a wave of panic in the U.S. and across the world — allegedly offered his services on the “dark web” for a fee.
A newly unsealed FBI search warrant lays out how 19-year-old Michael Ron David Kadar, who was arrested by Israeli police in March, attempted to lure customers on the black market site AlphaBay with an ad entitled, “School Email Bomb Threat Service.”
“I email bomb threats to schools on your requests. If you feel you need someone to do this job for you then this service is for you,” Kadar posted in March under the username “Darknet_Legend,” according to the FBI affidavit.

NKNews.com: N. Korean Army “Carefully Examining” Operation Plan for Attack on Guam: KPA
Separate DPRK army statement says military action by U.S. will be met with “just all-out war”
Oliver Hotham August 8th, 2017
North Korea’s Strategic Force of the Korean People’s Army (KPA) is examining an operational plan for a medium-to-long-range ballistic missile attack on the island of Guam, a spokesperson for the organization said in a statement carried by the Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) on Wednesday.
The plan, the details of which were reportedly outlined yesterday, is in response to the U.S.’s test launch last Wednesday of the Minuteman-3 intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) from California’s Vandenberg Air Force Base and of the recent arrival of six B-1B Lancers at the Andersen Air Force Base in Guam.
See: https://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/01/us-minuteman-missile-test-set-for-wednesday.html
Guam is a U.S. territory and home to several American military bases.
The U.S. flew B-1B bombers over the Korean peninsula on the 30 July, in a response to North Korea’s second test of the Hwasong-14 ICBM, and again yesterday, according to the KPA statement.
“The Strategic Force of the KPA has taken special note of such maneuvers,” the statement reads.
“The KPA Strategic Force is now carefully examining the operational plan for making an enveloping fire at the areas around Guam with medium-to-long-range strategic ballistic rocket Hwasong-12 in order to contain the U.S. major military bases on Guam…”
The statement said that U.S. strategic bombers “get on the nerves of the DPRK” with their “frequent visits to the sky above south Korea.”
The plan will be “will be put into practice in a multi-concurrent and consecutive way” on the order of Kim Jong Un, it added.
“The U.S. should clearly face up to the fact that the ballistic rockets of the Strategic Force of the KPA are now on constant standby, facing the Pacific Ocean and pay deep attention to their azimuth angle for launch.”
In a separate statement also released on Wednesday, the General Staff of the Korean People’s Army (KPA) condemned recent talk of military action against North Korea from policymakers in the U.S.
A military intervention against the DPRK would be met with a “just all-out war,” the statement said, which would seek to destroy “the strongholds of the enemies including the U.S. mainland.”
“…the army of the DPRK will turn the U.S. mainland into the theatre of a nuclear war before the inviolable land of the DPRK turns into the one,” the statement added.
The KPA also said that a U.S. preemptive strike against North Korea missile and nuclear targets would be “mercilessly repelled” by the DPRK armed forces, and would lead to a regional conflict.
“Preemptive strike is no longer the monopoly of the U.S.,” the KPA said, saying that they would “burn up” all U.S. military assets in the area, “including Seoul.”
Referencing recent comments by Senator Lindsey Graham, as well as Secretary of Defense James Mattis and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff James Dunford, the KPA promised a “preemptive retaliatory operation of justice” if it saw even a “slight sign” of a U.S. “beheading” [decapitation strike] operation against North Korea’s leadership.
“Once the U.S. shows a sign of starting to carry out the foolhardy plot, we will launch the Korean-style pre-emptive retaliatory operation of justice to annihilate the masterminds of the thrice-cursed operation and all the criminals involved in it,” the statement reads.
“The U.S. will be forced to suffer an imaginably terrible disaster for the ‘beheading operation.’”
The statement also attacked an alleged U.S. plot to foment regime change and social upheaval in the North, saying that U.S. was encouraging “murder, arson, destruction with the use of rogue-like special commandoes to be infiltrated into the DPRK.”
“The “secret operation” touted by the U.S. policy-makers is a foolish scheme aimed at bringing down the social system of the DPRK,” it added.
The comments by North Korea’s military come hours after U.S. President Donald Trump promised “fire and fury” against the DPRK should it continue to threaten the United States.
“(Kim Jong Un) has been very threatening… and I said they will be met with fire, fury and frankly power, the likes of which this world has never seen before,” Trump said.

Here’s the full text of KCNA’s Thursday-morning warning against Guam.

President Kim, since it appears that North Korea may have long-range ballistic missiles, perhaps untested, which might reach the West Coast, may I suggest that you aim for Berkeley?
Here’s the kind of crap that the MSM pulls off in order to skew and distort the fear-mongering news by cherry-picking and chopping off quotes.
North Korea is putting out strong rhetoric to get their point across, but in the main it is not the product of “madmen,” but orderly, rational and thought out. It is mostly oriented towards the North Korean people to bolster morale and the (well-deserved) anti-US popular sentiment and mobilization.
This from Reuters:
SEOUL (Reuters) – North Korea said on Wednesday it is “carefully examining” plans for a missile strike on the U.S. Pacific territory of Guam, just hours after U.S. President Donald Trump told the North that any threat to the United States would be met with “fire and fury”.
http://www.reuters.com/article/us-northkorea-missiles-usa-idUSKBN1AO2L9
But, is that what North Korea said?
First, it wasn’t “North Korea”–as in the government — who issued the statement, but the Commander of the Strategic Force — General Kim Rak Gyom.
General Kim did not say that NK was considering plans for a missile strike ON Guam, but “carefully examining” a plan for four simultaneous missile strikes as an “enveloping strike” designed to simultaneously splash down the ocean some 30 to 40 km (19 to 25 miles) away from the Island of Guam.
Which actually puts the planned missile enveloping ocean strike in international waters outside of Guam. And since Korean Strategic Command is planning on splashing them down in international waters, then we can safely assume that they will be unarmed.
What for? It’s a tit for tat response to the unarmed Minuteman III intercontinental ballistic missile test from Vandenberg AFB in California.
Here’s the translated text of KCNA’s Thursday Morning Warning Against Guam, August 10/9 [Korea is 24 hours ahead of the US because of the International dateline]. It is published by the Wall Street Journal (MSM), and, mentioned earlier, a South Korean reporter for the WSJ published it on Twitter.
In my earlier post from North Korea News.com, they paraphrased and quoted from an earlier Strategic Forces press statement from August 9/8 that this plan that they are considering is in response to the Vandenberg ballistic missile test launched last week, and was announced as a “reminder” to President Kim and “others” of Trumplandia’s posturing of nuclear might.
From CNBC: Air Force Capt. Michele Rollins, a spokesperson for the strike command, told CNBC the U.S. military schedules four test-launches per fiscal year and the actual schedule is created several years in advance so it is unrelated to the recent developments. “Planning for this particular launch started a little over a year ago,” she said.
Even so, the Minuteman III [long-range ballistic missile] test is still seen as a reminder to North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and others of the nuclear options the U.S. military has in its arsenal.
Last month, the U.S. also sent two B-1 long-range bombers over the Korean Peninsula in a show of strength and is known to have nuclear submarines in the region.
The Minuteman III missile will be test-launched from Vandenberg Air Force Base about 160 miles northwest of Los Angeles. The missile is expected to land about 4,800 miles away in the Ronald Reagan Ballistic Missile Defense Test Site, which was formerly known as Kwajalein Missile Range, in the Marshall Islands.
The U.S. has more than 400 Minuteman III missiles in underground silos at three bases, and the weapons have a range in excess of 8,000 miles.
http://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/01/us-minuteman-missile-test-set-for-wednesday.html
Pyongyang, August 10 (KCNA)-General Kim Rak Gyom, commander of the Strategic Force of the Korean People’s Army, released the following statement on August 9: [transcribed from JCheng’s Twitter account]
KPA Will Take Practical Action: Commander of Strategic Force
As already clarified, the Strategic Force of the KPA is seriously examining the plan for an enveloping strike at Guam through simultaneous fire of four Hwasong-12 intermediate-range strategic ballistic rockets in order to interdict the enemy forces on major military bases on Guam and to signal a crucial warning to the U.S.
On Tuesday, the KPA Strategic Force through a statement of its spokesman fully warned the U.S. against its all-round sanctions on the DPRK and moves of maximizing military threats to it. But the U.S. president at a gold [sic] links again let out a load of nonsense about “fire and fury,” failing to grasp the ongoing grave situation. This is extremely getting on the nerves of the infuriated Hwasong artillerymen of the KPA.
It seems he has not yet understood the statement.
Sound dialog is not possible with such a guy bereft of reason and only absolute force can work on him. This is the judgment made by the service personnel of the KPA Strategic Force.
The military action the KPA is about to take will be an effective remedy for restraining the frantic moves of the U.S. in the southern part of the Korean peninsula and its vicinity.
The Hwasong artillerymen of the KPA Strategic Force are replete with a strong determination to fully demonstrate once again the invincible might of the force, which has developed into a reliable nuclear force of the Workers’ Party of Korea and the world’s strongest strike service, through the planned enveloping strike targeting the U.S. imperialist bases of aggression.
The Strategic Force is also considering the plan for opening to public the historic enveloping fire at Guam, a practical action targeting the U.S. bases of aggression.
This unprecedented step is to give stronger confidence in certain victory and courage to the Korean people and help them witness the wretched plight of the U.S. imperialists.
The Hwasong-12 rockets to be launched by the KPA will cross the sky above Shimane, Hiroshima, and Koichi Prefectures of Japan. They will fly 3,356.7 km for 1,065 seconds and hit the waters 30 to 40 km away from Guam.
The KPA Strategic Force will finally complete the plan until mid-August and report it to the commander-in-chief of the DPRK nuclear force and wait for his order.
We keep closely watching the speech and behavior of the U.S. -0-
https://twitter.com/JChengWSJ/status/895419738444054528
Now, ratcheting up the tensions even more from CNBC:
The Department of Defense would deploy B-1B bombers in a pre-emptive attack on North Korea if the commander-in-chief ordered such a strike, NBC News reported Wednesday, citing two current and two former senior military officials.
The officials told NBC that the attack would originate from the Andersen Air Force Base in Guam. Multiple people told NBC that the strike would target roughly two dozen missile-launch sites in North Korea.
On Tuesday, President Donald Trump said that the rogue state would face “fire and fury” if it continued to threaten the United States.
NBC’s report comes after a state-media outlet said Pyongyang was “seriously considering” an attack on Guam.
Earlier Wednesday, North Korean media said that a plan for such an attackwould be drafted by mid-August. Leader Kim Jong Un would then decide whether to proceed with the strike on the U.S. territory.
http://www.cnbc.com/2017/08/09/pentagon-plan-for-pre-emptive-strike-on-north-korea-would-reportedly-launch-from-base-in-guam.html
Again with the bogus emphasis on a “strike ON the US territory,” misrepresenting what North Korea actually said they were considering in their press release, as translated by WSJ’s Seoul Bureau Chief.
Not that it’s the best idea for North Korea to do, but there’s a world of difference between “threatening” strikes on the Island of Guam and its military bases where strategic bombers are based, and announcing that the Korean army is considering launching missiles into the sea some 19-25 miles away from Guam, and are in the process of drawing up plans for said warning operation.
Rhetoric on and around the Korean peninsula is at a high mark, reacting to god-emperor Trump’s “pressure campaign”.
Trump’s words about “fire and fury” aimed at North Korea sounded almost like the typical rhetoric coming from North Korea, and it has upset most of Southeast Asia.
North Korea’s response to the US, at yet in the planning stage, seemingly implying a threat of bombing Guam, or rather its vicinity, was unusually direct and concrete.
Then CNN goes on to flourish what the MSM narrative had North Korea say: “Hours after Trump spoke, and apparently in response to military exercises by the US earlier in the week, Pyongyang warned that it would carry out pre-emptive military strikes against the US, including the Pacific territory of Guam.”
The North Korean Strategic Forces Command never said that.
And then we have Mattis mournfully posturing with his dramatic ultimatum (threat!) to North Korea to “cease any consideration of actions that would lead to the end of its regime and destruction of its people”.
Mattis, we know what the goal is from this gem. It’s regime change, either by political pressure or threatened decapitation strike. The North Koreans won’t go for it. If you expect the North Koreans to knuckle under to the U.S. of Israel’s bullying, well they haven’t in over 72 years.
And, Mr. Trump, after the US flaked out and trashed the last nuclear deal that Bill Clinton made with North Korea in 2002, do you really think the North Koreans will forget that?
Do you really think the North Korean people will forget the massive US war crime perpetuated on North Korea in 1950 and the millions of North Korean dead from a long, leisurely and relentless USAF carpet and incendiary bombing campaigns of the north?
“Over a period of three years or so, we killed off — what — 20 percent of the population,” Air Force Gen. Curtis LeMay, head of the Strategic Air Command during the Korean War, told the Office of Air Force History in 1984.

Dean Rusk, a supporter of the war and later secretary of state, said the United States bombed “everything that moved in North Korea, every brick standing on top of another.”
The bombing of Pyongyang was conducted as part of a gradual and sustained U.S. Air Force aerial bombardment campaign conducted against the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea) during the Korean War.
By the time of the armistice, 75 percent of Pyongyang’s area was destroyed by the bombing campaign, which was part of a broader U.S. bombing effort throughout the country which cost the lives of nearly 3 million North Koreans by the time the war ended.
After running low on urban targets, U.S. bombers destroyed hydroelectric and irrigation dams in the later stages of the war, flooding farmland and destroying crops.
Most Americans do not know the utter devastation and ruin that the US inflicted on North Korea with three years of its strategic bombing. Even at the time, the extent of US aerial warfare was not very public. Instead, media at the time kept the focus very narrow on warplane combat between the US and China, and kept score for the number of US “aces”.
Atrocities committed by the North Koreans during the war against American and allied POWs are always burnished to polish American exceptionalist “virtue”. The 1954 Potter Report is more than 200 pages of testimony from Korean War veterans and massacre survivors before Congress. But no one, except for maybe a few lefties, speaks about the despicable atrocities dished out by the Americans and allies.
The intentional massacres and purges of thousands of non-combatants, suspected communists, and South Koreans with suspected northern sympathies committed during the Korean War are appalling.
“More than 100,000 South Korean civilians were massacred by allied troops fighting alongside Britain and the US in the Korean War, an official investigation has revealed.”

Mehdi Hasan writes in his Intercept article, “Why Do North Koreans Hate Us? One Reason — They Remember the Korean War:
“Millions of ordinary Americans may suffer from a toxic combination of ignorance and amnesia, but the victims of U.S. coups, invasions, and bombing campaigns across the globe tend not to. Ask the Iraqis or the Iranians, ask the Cubans or the Chileans. And, yes, ask the North Koreans.”
…
“But the fact is that inside North Korea, according to leading Korea scholar Kathryn Weathersby, “it is still the 1950s … and the conflict with South Korea and the United States is still going on. People in the North feel backed into a corner and threatened.”
And that ignorance, our ignorance of the first hot war of the Cold War, is being used to play us now in this Cold War 2.I admit I was ignorant of the Korean War other than for a couple of page or so of a US History textbook. I was a 1-year old when the Armistice was signed. But, thanks to the internet and the public library, I’ve learned something about the Korean War in the past few years as my non-interventionist, anti-war beliefs have firmed up.
The US and North Korea are still technically in a state of war since the 1953 Armistice Agreement. North Korea has a right to defend itself from actual US aggression, and has a right to respond to provocative behaviors and threats by the US.
No peace agreement was ever signed, and that is one of the things that the US deliberately neglected as one of the conditions of the 1994 US-North Korean nuclear deal brokered by Bill Clinton.
Syria knows this type of merciless strategic air warfare for the sake of the “American Century,” as the war-mongering, interventionist neoconservative Henry Luce, the publishing mogul, named his ideal of a US global empire in 1941.
And Afghanistan, Libya, and Iraq, Iran, and Yemen, and Viet Nam, Laos, Cambodia, and Germany, and Japan. And Yugoslavia. Since the end of WWII to 2001, the US bombed 23 nations prior to 9/11. That doesn’t count the war crimes involved in other more covert CIA proxy war “interventions” in Indonesia, Central and South America, and who knows where else.
Mehdi Hassan also wrote: “Let’s be clear: There is no doubt that the citizens of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea both fear and loathe the United States.
“Paranoia, resentment, and a crude anti-Americanism have been nurtured inside the Hermit Kingdom for decades. Children are taught to hate Americans in school while adults mark a “Struggle Against U.S. Imperialism Month” every year (it’s in June, in case you were wondering).
“North Korean officials make wild threats against the United States while the regime, led by the brutal and sadistic Kim Jong-un, pumps out fake news in the form of self-serving propaganda, on an industrial scale. In the DPRK, anti-American hatred is a commodity never in short supply.
“’The hate, though,’ as longtime North Korea watcher Blaine Harden observed in the Washington Post, ‘is not all manufactured.’ Some of it, he wrote, ‘is rooted in a fact-based narrative, one that North Korea obsessively remembers and the United States blithely forgets.”

Ah well.
These English translations of the Strategic Forces Command press statements below are copied directly from the state Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) using their English translation engine, which comes out in a sort of googlish anyway.
Using google instead of their translation engine, the googlish translation originally came out reading, because of the differences in grammar, that the North Koreans had launched the Minutemen III missiles from Guam.
Because the website uses a running list format for their news, there’s no actual individual webpage IP address for them. They may disappear off of the list service.
I’ve copy/paste the Korean headline which, if copy/pasted into a search engine, ought to turn it up something in other Korean news sites if not on the KCNA itself
In the meantime, their English translations are humorous in some parts, and do convey the sense of the North Koreans prickly and scornful point of view, once you know the history behind “Why they hate us”.

“The United States should be extremely cautious in the current situation and should refrain from any military action that could lead to a conflict – a statement by a spokesman for the Strategic Armed Forces of the Korean People’s Army”
미국은 현 상황에서 극히 신중해야 하며 충돌을 유발할수 있는 어떠한 군사적행동도 특별히 삼가해야 한다–조선인민군 전략군 대변인성명
Short title: US Should Be Prudent under Present Acute Situation: Spokesman for KPA Strategic Force
Pyongyang, August 9 (KCNA) – A spokesman for the Strategic Force of the Korean People’s Army (KPA) released on the following statement on August 8 [Int’l Dateline, remember]:
Recently, the US test-fired ICBM Minuteman-3 at its Vandenberg Air Force Base in California targeted the DPRK, the fourth one-year, openly staged an actual nuclear strike drill targeting the DPRK by mobilizing its nuclear strategic bombers Formation stationed at its Anderson Air Force Base on Guam in the Pacific.
It is the DPRK’s strategic position in the DPRK. The Strategic Force of the KPA has taken special note of such maneuvers.
Such military maneuvers of the United States may provoke a dangerous conflict under the present acute situation prevailing on the Korean peninsula.
Typically, the nuclear strategic bombers from Guam frequent the sky above South Korea to openly stage the actual war drills and muscle-flexing in a bid to strike the bases of the DPRK.
This grave situation requires KPA to closely watch Guam, the outpost and the beachhead for invading the DPRK, and it will take real action of significance to neutralize it.
In the morning of August 8 the air pirates of Guam again appeared in the sky above South Korea to stage a mad-cap drill simulating an actual war.
Supreme Commander of the Revolutionary Forces of the DPRK Kim Jong-in, the nuclear-armed forces of the United States, As the US forces are resorting to inappropriate and reckless military actions in the sensitive area, the Korean peninsula and the Pacific waters off the waters off the waters.
The KPA Strategic Force is now working with the United States military bases on Guam including the Anderson Air Force. The US and the US have been trying to force the DPRK and the United States to make a threat to the DPRK.
Kim Jong-un, the Supreme Commander of the DPRK, is a member of the Supreme Command, a member of the DPRK, Makes a decision.
The execution of this plan will provide an occasion for the Yankees to experience the strategic weapons of the DPRK closest.
Explicitly speaking again, the DPRK manufactured at the cost of blood and sweat, risking everything, not a bargaining thing for getting acknowledgment from others and for bartering for anything, but they serve as substantial military means for resolutely countering the US Political and economic pressure and military threat.
Will only the US have option called “preventive war” as claimed by it?
It is a daydream for the US to think that its mainland is an invulnerable Heavenly kingdom.
The US should clearly face up to the fact that the ballistic rockets of the KPA are now on constant standby, facing the Pacific Ocean and paying attention to their azimuth angle for launch.
It should be a proper option so do not regret today in the future.
It should immediately stop its reckless military provocation against the DPRK so that the latter would not make an unavoidable military choice. -0-

Commander of the Strategic Armed Forces of the Korean People’s Army, Chosun said that he would send a serious warning to the United States through actual military action.
조선인민군 전략군사령관 조선은 실제적군사행동으로 미국에 엄중한 경고를 보낼것이라고 언명
(Pyongyang, August 10, KCNA)
Chief commander of the Strategic Armed Forces of the Korean People’s Army, Chief Commander Kim Rak-kyum,
As we have already stated, our Korean People’s Army Strategic Army, Guam, is conducting simultaneous launch of four Mars-12 type heavy-duty ballistic rocket rockets to send a severe warning signal to the United States to suppress the major military bases in Guam. We are seriously considering the siege plan.
Despite yesterday’s warlord’s warning that the United States is fully aware of the US that is raising all – round sanctions and military threats to the Republic of Korea through a spokesman’s statement, the leader of the US military, who was stuck in the golf course, “Flame and Anger” and the doctors are showing us again, stimulating the nerves of our Martian artillery more sharply.
We still have not translated our statement properly.
It is the judgment of our strategic army officers that normal conversation can not be done with those who have not been able to have sexual thoughts and that they should be governed by absolute power.
The military action we intend to take this time will be an effective remedy for restraining the US alliance on the Korean peninsula and its surrounding areas.
Our Strategic Arms Hometown artillery will be able to demonstrate the power of the Korean People’s Army Strategic Army, which has been strengthened as the world’s strongest battalion military force, with the trustworthy nuclear arsenal of the Workers’ Party of Korea through the siege firing aimed at the US invasion base, It is full of burning resolve to do.
Strategic groups are also considering opening up the historic Guam, which is taking actual action measures aimed at US base, to open the siege to the people.
The purpose of this special tribute is to encourage our people to deepen their faith and courage, and to make them aware of the plight of the US.
We are going to pass the Shimane Prefecture, Hiroshima and Goshi development balls in Japan, and we will fly 3,356.7km in 1,065s, then Guam in 30 ~ 40km in the sea area .
The Strategic Group of the Korean People’s Army will end up in Guam with a siege plan until mid-August and will report to the Commander-in-Chief of the republic’s nuclear armed forces and wait for a command from the launch standby.
We are keeping an eye on US behavior.

@KathJuliane, you said:
“The stinking, deluded Zionist Jews erroneously claim the Fortress Antonia/Praetorium/Al Aqsa Mosque Compound be their so-called Temple Mount.”
The theory that the “Wailing Wall” adjacent to Temple Mount as it’s called by the Jews is what remains of a Roman fort is bogus unless one wants to believe it was necessary for the Romans to have stones being over 40 feet long and weighing over 500 tons as part of their fort. Also, the wall reaches underground something like 30 feet. But how would the ancient Romans move blocks weighing 500 tons and for what purpose? Certainly, no fort needs to have blocks that gigantic.
Also, we have the claim that the first and 2nd Temples were not on Temple Mount but rather in a valley near Temple Mount built over “Gihon Spring” the main spring water source for Jerusalem.
More likely, fresh water was pumped up from the spring to the 2 Temples on Temple Mount to wash the large ancient “Rock of Abraham” where God tested Abraham and where animal sacrifices were performed by ancient Hebrews over which the “Dome of the Rock” now sits.
The bottom line is that nearly all Jews believe that the 2 Temples were built on “Temple Mount” directly over the Rock of Abraham where Muslims claim Mohammad ascended to heaven and that is where Jewish fanatics want the 3rd Temple which means they will plot to somehow destroy the Muslim “Dome of the Rock”.
It doesn’t make any difference what you think is true. Rather, what is important is what the Jewish fanatics and their adversaries the Muslims believe is true.
Thank you KathJuliane, for addressing that Jiminy Cricket, Robert Jeffress.
Couldn’t agree more! Shame on him. Very troubling rhetoric and just plain bad theology from the likes of him.
Lord have Mercy.

Almost 220 years ago, the Zionists were writing on their Protocols that they would crash the Czarist Russia. And they succeeded it, by creating a Communistic regime.
That time they expressed their hate by burning churches and percecuting Christianity. And it happened because Jews hate Christianity.
Since then, nothing has changed. Now they hate Russia, because it is the only big country which does not obey to the ”Zionistic New World Order”.
Their practice is always the same. If you strongly oppose our orders, we have inhuman solutions to destroy you (reducing your territory by creating war against you, killing your leader who is against us, creating a severe financial crisis or imposing financial sanctions).
That’s why the inhuman Zionists hate Russia so much. This is the real and bitter truth.
