Ground Phase of Operation to Establish Control over Yemen Starts on Saudi Soil
25.04.2015 | 11:18 | Nikolai BOBKIN
…Saudi Arabia’s King Salman on April 21 ordered the Saudi Arabian National Guard, widely regarded as the kingdom’s best equipped military ground force, to take part in Riyadh’s campaign against Iran-allied Houthi rebels in Yemen… The National Guard is a separate military structure run by its own ministry. It will be responsible for control of border and Shia-populated areas. This is especially important because the Saudis started the ground phase of the operation on their own soil. Saudi Shiites have demonstrated to protest the intervention by Sunni regimes into Yemeni conflict…
Yemen’s Mystery and Map of Lt. Col. Peters
25.04.2015 | 00:00 | Arkady DZIUBA
The events in Yemen and other parts of Middle East bring back to memory the somewhat forgotten maps of Lt.Col. Peters. In 2006 Ralph Peters, a retired military intelligence officer, published an article in Armed Forces Journal called Blood Borders… Winding his piece up he wrote, «If the borders of the greater Middle East cannot be amended to reflect the natural ties of blood and faith, we may take it as an article of faith that a portion of the bloodshed in the region will continue to be our own»… No need to retell the whole article. The gist of it is the need to remap the «Greater Middle East» starting from Iran and Saudi Arabia…
West and Soros Rely on «Extreme Balkanization» to Prevent Turkish Stream Pipeline
25.04.2015 | 00:00 | Wayne MADSEN
The Obama administration interventionists, content in the knowledge that they have, at least, another year-and-a-half remaining in power, have decided to resort to extreme ethnic-based Balkanization to throw up a road block to the Russian “Turkish Stream” pipeline that is to bring natural gas from Russia through Turkey and into Greece, Macedonia, Serbia, and Hungary. The Obama administration has set about to foment another “color revolution,” this time in Macedonia…
EU Allies Pay for America’s Global Conflict and Refugees
24.04.2015 | 00:00 | Finian CUNNINGHAM
Europe’s refugee crisis is just another American bill for the latter’s legacy of global conflict – a bill that is being dumped at the European allies’ door to pay. Years of US-led wars waged in Central Asia, through the Middle East and across North Africa are arguably the major factor in the droves of migrants now straining the European Union, as they seek refuge from raging conflicts and deprivation. The nationalities of the refugees mirror the trail of countries that America has pulverised over the past decade…
Gasprom Can Put the Relations with Europe on Hold
24.04.2015 | 00:00 | Pyotr ISKENDEROV
The dialogue on gas issues between Russia and Europe is in deadlock… At the present moment, everything depends on Europe… The South Stream experience should teach Europeans a lesson. Gasprom inserted changes into its policy. The following comments regarding the move in December 2014 by Gazprom CEO Alexei Miller clearly showed this shift: «The principle of our strategy in relation to the European market is changing… If the buyer doesn’t want the purchase to be delivered home, perhaps he needs to get dressed and go to the store; if it happens in winter, perhaps he needs to get dressed more warmly»…
FBI Director, Polish Collaborationists and Pogroms in Jedwabna
23.04.2015 | 11:22 | Valéry VRUBLEVSKY
The U.S. ambassador to Poland Stephen Mull has apologized for remarks made by FBI Director James Comey, who penned a Washington Post op-ed made public on April 16 in which he accused Poland of being a collaborator in the Holocaust… James Comey is a professional, he knows what he is talking about. He did not adduce facts to confirm the affirmation that Germany was not the only country where «the murderers and accomplices» conducted their activities during WWII. He could have easily done it if he wished…
The Transatlantic Agreement and the Burial of European Democracy
23.04.2015 | 00:00 | Natalia MEDEN
Over the weekend, ahead of the latest and ninth round of talks between the European Commission and the US on the preparation of the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership (TTIP), 750 protests took place in 45 countries around the world against the Atlantists’ initiatives… In a statement by the organisers of the demonstrations, it says: «Over the past few decades, corporations and governments have entered into secret treaties and investment agreements at the expense of our rights and the environment»…
Western Propaganda and Doctor Goebbels
23.04.2015 | 00:00 | Yuriy RUBTSOV
Czech historian Eve Hahnová wrote an article About Anti-Russian Stereotype of Goebbels propaganda. It says that the contemporary Western media looks very much like Nazi propaganda in fascist Germany. Offering her comments on Goebbels diaries, Eve Hahnová says the West uses an artificially created image created by Nazi propaganda by the end of WWII. The «threat coming from the East» and «Russian menace» revive Hitler’s propaganda stereotypes… The brainwashing experience of the Third Reich is in demand today to benefit another «Reich» called Pax Americana…
US-backed Criminal Slaughter in Yemen Revealed
22.04.2015 | 09:17 | Finian CUNNINGHAM
Former UN envoy to Yemen, Jamal Benomar, has given an undiplomatic assessment of the crisis in that country, in which he rhetorically explodes Saudi myths «justifying» the US-backed aerial bombing campaign. The Moroccan diplomat told media at the weekend that the ongoing conflict was a direct result of Houthi rebels having been excluded from the political process last year. Furthermore, Benomar went on to say unequivocally that during his tenure as UN envoy in Yemen he saw no evidence of Iranian involvement stirring the country’s strife…
US Responds to Escalation of Conflict in Yemen
22.04.2015 | 00:00 | Nikolai BOBKIN
The US expands its involvement into the events in Yemen… The USS Theodore Roosevelt – along with her escort ship, the USS Normandy, a guided-missile cruiser – left the Persian Gulf on April 19 route for the Arabian Sea, to help enforce the blockade. The ships will join the naval force including seven warships and three auxiliary vessels deployed in the Arabian Sea, the Aden Gulf and Bab-el-Mandeb Strait. Formally the mission is to ensure the vital shipping lanes in the region remain open and safe… The real purpose of naval blockade is to deny Iranian ships access to Yemeni ports and deprive the insurgent Houthis of aid coming from Iran…
Truth Is Washington’s Enemy
21.04.2015 | 09:54 | Paul Craig ROBERTS
US Representative Ed Royce (R, CA) is busy at work destroying the possibility of truth being spoken in the US. On April 15 at a hearing before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs of which Royce is chairman, Royce made use of two minor presstitutes to help him redefine all who take exception to Washington’s lies as «threats» who belong to a deranged pro-Russian propaganda cult. Washington’s problem is that whereas Washington controls the print and TV media in the US and its vassal states in Europe, Canada, Australia, Ukraine, and Japan, Washington does not control Internet sites, such as this one…
Finland After Elections: Olli Rehn and Ministry of Hybrid Affairs
21.04.2015 | 08:19 | Anton STEPANOV
The parliamentary election in Finland is kind of daily routine for Europe. The Centrists, Social-Democrats, the National Coalition Party… Does it really matter if there is a master in the house? Helsinki snaps to attention and clicks heels upon receiving a command from Brussels. But there is a problem that cannot leave Finnish farsighted politicians and businessmen indifferent. Too many factors – geography, military and political issues, economic cooperation and history – make the relationship with Russia an issue which is always on the radar screen.
Fourth and Fifth Generation Warfare Arrives on European and Middle Eastern Battlefields
21.04.2015 | 00:00 | Wayne MADSEN
The U.S., British, Canadian and other Western military training of Ukrainian forces that include neo-Nazi gangsters from Ukraine and other parts of Europe and the NATO/CIA training support in Turkey and Jordan being provided to Islamist jihadis tied to the Islamic State, Al Nusra Front, and Al Qaeda represents the application of 4th generation warfare (4GW) and 5th generation warfare (5GW) tactics from the Pentagon’s and Central Intelligence Agency’s think tanks to the battlefield. The use of 4GW/5GW primarily involves the use of what are known as «violent non-state actors» (VNSAs)…
Bahrain Risks to Follow Yemen
21.04.2015 | 00:00 | Nikolai BOBKIN
…The Crown Prince of Bahrain, Sheikh Salman bin Hamad al-Khalifa, the First Deputy Prime Minister of the Kingdom of Bahrain, blasted U.S. foreign policy in an interview and warned that its «schizophrenia» will lead the Arab world to ally with Russia. Using unusually hostile language, al-Khalifa said American policy is «transient and reactive», and «America seems to suffer from schizophrenia when it deals with the Arab world. He said the US foreign policy depends on forthcoming election in two years and there is no long-term policy. He expressed doubts that that Arab states could rely on the West. Bahrain does not trust Obama and strives to get US Congress backing…
Ukraine and UN: Yatsenyuk Tells a Big Lie
20.04.2015 | 10:58 | Yuriy RUBTSOV
Ukraine’s Prime Minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk accused Russia of «privatizing» the victory in Great Patriotic War. «Ukraine is a winner country in the Second World War and the original member of the United Nations», stressed Prime Minister of Ukraine Arseniy Yatsenyuk… It’s easier to sell a big lie if there is some truth in it. The Ukrainian Republic was an original member of the United Nations as part of the Soviet Union. It was not an entity under international law, it did not fight fascist Germany independently and cannot be considered a winner in the war. For instance, no state of the United States of America could claim to be a winner in the war or a founder of UN…
Ukraine: NATO and Political Assassinations
20.04.2015 | 00:00 | Alexander DONETSKY
A wave of political assassinations has hit Ukraine recently… Thanks to the latest information leak regarding the workshop that took place in Riga on February 19, 2015, at the NATO Centre for Strategic Communications, it has become known that NATO collaborates with the Ukrainian military in the domain of information warfare and closely cooperates on certain projects on the Internet. But it had not been known that that the North Atlantic support includes the organization of political assassinations and terrorist acts…
US External Debt and its Largest Foreign Holders
19.04.2015 | 09:21 | Valentin KATASONOV
…It makes sense to replace the currency (especially the dollar) component of international reserves because the era of cheap gold in the world is coming to an end. A sharp increase in the price of gold is anticipated. This is indirectly indicated by events like the end of the London Gold Fix in March 2015. The world is moving over to a new, more liberal system for setting gold prices. In these new conditions, Russia has a big advantage over other countries – it is one of the leading gold-producing countries.
Increased Soros Destabilization through the Appearance of «Micro-nations»
19.04.2015 | 09:05 | Wayne MADSEN
…The appearance of Liberland along the Serbian-Croatian border, a frontier that some NATO expansionists consider a de facto «front line» between NATO and Russia, may portend the use of micro-nations and a lax interpretation of the Montevideo Convention as a new «soft power» weapon for the use of the Soros networks in eastern Europe. Soros and his U.S. intelligence sponsors must not be allowed to adopt micro-nations as their latest weapon to destabilize Eastern Europe and other regions where «terra nullius» situations exist.
