So Ukrainian "Ultra-Patriots" (who happen to idolize WWII Ukrainian Nazi war criminals and collaborators) put Tucker Carlson  on the Mirotvorets hit list. 

Just because he dared to interview Vladimir Putin in Moscow!

Sad but true.

Tucker, welcome to goo company. Aside from Elon Musk, they put me on the hit list, too!

Why? Because I dared to question the official narrative and exposed the 02/24 Post-Maidan Ukrainian government, its armed forces and paramilitaries of committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in the Donbass region of Eastern Ukraine.

And accused the U.S. government of being involved in these war crimes.

How?

Please take a look at these Ukrainian-Russian-American Observer posts listed below.

And then ask yourself:

1. Are the U.S. and its NATO partners honestly supporting "Democracy", "Freedom" and "Western / European" values in Ukraine by sending the Ukrainian government led by president Zelensky hundreds of billions of dollars in military and financial aid?

Or is the U.S. using Ukraine, as revealed by a number of US & European politicians, in a proxy war to weaken Russia with the ultimate goal of bringing the biggest country in the world (by landmass) with the largest amount of natural resources ($75 trillion) under the political, economic, cultural and eventually military control of Euro-American Financial Industrial Groups that control political parties, politicians, senior government officials, governments, the press, social media  and IT & telecommunications giants?

2. Does the U.S. government really care when U.S. citizens like Gonzalo Lira, my mother and maternal grandmother are killed by regimes that the U.S. government supports?

Or when these regimes and their supporters target U.S. citizens, including journalists, for challenging official narratives and exposing their wrongdoing?

 
3. Does the U.S. government really care that it supports countries, political parties, NGO and paramilitary organizations  that abuse human rights massively, commit war crimes and crimes against humanity -- as long as these groups further U.S. foreign policy interests?
   
4. Do regular Americans and Europeans really understand that their news media (both privately & government owned), social media companies and entertainment media (movies, music, theater, TV, radio content) regularly lie to them regrading current and past events domestically and abroad, including Ukraine and Russia, by regurgitating propaganda approved by their corporate handlers and owners (those huge sinister Trans-national Financial Industrial Groups [FIGs])?
 
5. Should American and European citizens, including journalists, politicians, human rights supporters, lawyers, doctors, and businessmen be labeled and ostracized as 

- traitors, 

- useful idiots, 

- puppets, 

- stooges and 

- agents 

of foreign countries and their leaders, just because they oppose current U.S. policy or agree with and support the policies of countries that the U.S. and its allies consider their enemies?

6. Should journalists like Tucker Carlson and amateur bloggers like me be censored, shadow-banned, de-platformed, slandered, libeled, blackballed, threatened (including by exposing personal data on us and our families), persecuted and even selectively prosecuted just because we dare to

- disagree with our government(s) and the FIGs that control them and challenge the official narrative that they push?

-  expose wrongdoing by our home countries and other countries and political forces & figures that they support, including corruption, human rights abuses, war crimes and crimes against humanity?
 
- dare to discover the truth by interviewing our home countries' opponents and engaging in independent investigative journalism?

7. Should we demand accountability and compliance with the Rule of Law (including generally accepted principles of international law)  from our governments and foreign governments & politicians that are funded, supported and armed with our taxes?

8. Should we expect compliance with Constitutionally-guaranteed right, like Freedom of Speech, Assembly and Worship, by our home government and its foreign "partners" (allies & aid recipients) and demand an end to government & corporate censorship, persecution and selective prosecution of those who peacefully and lawfully expose and oppose such unconstitutional & undemocratic measures, first and foremost traditional journalists and bloggers?

Young Russian denies she aided election hackers: ‘I never work with douchebags’!

Selected excerpts from:

Young Russian denies she aided election hackers: ‘I never work with douchebags’!

The Guardian
Shaun Walker and Sam Thielman

January 6, 2017
 
"White House claims Alisa Shevchenko was involved in hacking the US election but in an interview she says authorities misinterpreted facts or were fooled.
...
After a week in which Russian interference in the election – apparently with the goal of helping Donald Trump to victory – has dominated the news agenda, Shevchenko has spoken out to decry the sanctions against her.

Shevchenko told the Guardian she was furious at her company’s inclusion on the list, and denied ever having knowingly worked for the Russian government. She communicated via encrypted email, from a location she said was “a wild countryside area a few hours away from Bangkok”.

In answers that were defiant, and occasionally abrasive, she decried the “insane level of hysteria around the entire ‘Russian hacking’ story”.

She suggested that the US authorities were guilty either of “a technically incompetent misinterpretation of the facts” or had been fooled by a “counterfeit in order to frame my company”. Those who could have had an interest in framing her could include competitors, US intelligence or Russian intelligence, with the goal of screening the real culprits, Shevchenko said.

“A young female hacker and her helpless company seems like a perfect pick for that goal. I don’t try to hide, I travel a lot, and am a friendly communicative person. And most importantly, I don’t have any big money, power or connections behind me to shrug off the blame. So really, it could be anyone.”

...

Shevchenko specialises in finding so-called “zero-days”, previously undisclosed software bugs that could leave companies vulnerable. “We have not only searched for bugs but exploited them, but only with the customer’s sanction,” she said. She said she never hired anyone she knew to have a criminal background for her companies.

Shevchenko said she had been approached repeatedly by people she believed to be from the Russian government. She insisted, however, that she had always rejected the advances. She said she had not been threatened or intimidated as a result.

A 2014 profile of Shevchenko in Russian Forbes magazine noted that she worked with DialogNauka, a Russian company that listed among its clients the Russian ministry of defence and parts of the security services. Questioned by the Guardian, she insisted that none of her own work for DialogNauka “was even remotely possible to use as a nation-state attacks supply”.

Shevchenko said she had turned down plenty of offers of work on ideological grounds: “I never work with douchebags. I only work with honest and open people that I feel good about.” Asked directly if she had ever worked on a government contract in any capacity, she answered “not that I know of”.

Shevchenko said ZOR was closed more than a year ago, because it was difficult and expensive to do the requisite public relations work required to drum up business. She now works as a “one-man army”, she said."

Karma over Russia?

"The CIA was founded to undermine democracy overseas, to overturn elections, to influence internal politics of sovereign countries, to destabilize governments. And to lie to us about it.

Should we believe a mainstream media report that the CIA believes the Russians manipulated US elections to get Trump elected?

Or is the supposed CIA assessment itself a form of coup against the US elections? Have the coups come home?

Jacob Hornberger looks back at the CIA coups through history in this important piece..."

'Very aggressive' Vladimir Putin announces US Clinton WW3 fears in chilling video.

Putin Has Hot Words For Clinton’s Attempts At ‘Confrontation’. "Stung at the hostile tone of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton’s efforts to cast Russia as America’s greatest enemy, Russian President Vladimir Putin said he won’t let Clinton become a global bully. “Jeopardizing Russian-American relations in order to gain brownie points internally – I consider this to be harmful and counterproductive,” Putin recently told reporters in Russia in a video. “It’s not funny anymore. If somebody out there wants confrontation. This is not our choice but this means that there will be problems,” Putin warned." See http://www.westernjournalism.com/putin-has-hot-words-for-clintons-attempts-at-confrontation/ 'Very aggressive' Vladimir Putin announces US Clinton WW3 fears in chilling video. NEW video of Russian President Vladimir Putin discussing his concerns about the US election has shocked viewers. "In the clip – filmed in Russia – Putin, 64, tells a group of journalists that the US is creating a "distraction" aiming "to distract voters from the country's problems" by creating "an enemy and uniting the nation against them". He references both Iran and Russia as the potential enemies. But when asked whether he prefers Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton his response says a lot about ongoing World War 3 fears. The President responded: "Mrs Clinton has chosen to take up a very aggressive stance against our country, against Russia. "Mr Trump, on the other hand, calls for cooperation – at least when it comes to the international fight against terrorism."

Syria: Another Pipeline War?

Syria: Another Pipeline War. 
By Robert F. Kennedy, Jr.

"The fossil fuel industry’s business model is to externalize its costs by clawing in obscene subsidies and tax deductions—causing grave environmental costs, including toxic pollution and global warming. Among the other unassessed prices of the world’s addiction to oil are social chaos, war, terror, the refugee crisis overseas, and the loss of democracy and civil rights abroad and at home.

As we focus on the rise of ISIS and search for the source of the savagery that took so many innocent lives in Paris and San Bernardino, we might want to look beyond the convenient explanations of religion and ideology and focus on the more complex rationales of history and oil, which mostly point the finger of blame for terrorism back at the champions of militarism, imperialism and petroleum here on our own shores."

The Red Line and the Rat Line.
Seymour M. Hersh on Obama, Erdoğan and the Syrian rebels

"In 2011 Barack Obama led an allied military intervention in Libya without consulting the US Congress. Last August, after the sarin attack on the Damascus suburb of Ghouta, he was ready to launch an allied air strike, this time to punish the Syrian government for allegedly crossing the ‘red line’ he had set in 2012 on the use of chemical weapons.​＊ Then with less than two days to go before the planned strike, he announced that he would seek congressional approval for the intervention. The strike was postponed as Congress prepared for hearings, and subsequently cancelled when Obama accepted Assad’s offer to relinquish his chemical arsenal in a deal brokered by Russia. 

Why did Obama delay and then relent on Syria when he was not shy about rushing into Libya? The answer lies in a clash between those in the administration who were committed to enforcing the red line, and military leaders who thought that going to war was both unjustified and potentially disastrous."

Ukraine Collapse Is Now Imminent?

"Two years have passed since Yanukovich was deposed and, as it turns out, another ruthless clan of oligarchs has taken power. No wonder then that Ukraine is heading for a new wave of violence and chaos. Oligarchs are fighting each other, the IMF is pulling out of the country, officials issue laws and regulations only to see them repealed within a day or two by others, and raided European companies are leaving the country after being robbed by the so-called pro-Brussels oligarchic elite. 

It was evident from the beginning that the US and NATO-sponsored power transition was doomed to fail. Prime Minister Yatsenyuk made no secret on his personal website about his principal partners, NATO and Victor Pinchuk’s foundation. Victor Pinchuk is a link between the Ukraine corrupt oligarchic establishment and the Western political elite. 

...

The current chaos in Kiev makes it for the IMF extremely hard to keep Ukraine funded.Brazil’s IMF Director already in 2014 urged not to bend rules for Ukraine. Ukraine had failed the IMF twice before. There is now a sense of panic in Kiev, and so Ukraine leaders start to issue opposite orders. The Central Bank Governor’s ban on money exchange was repealed immediately by Yatsenyuk.

The situation of the population deteriorates rapidly as Ukraine’s currency devalues fast and bond yields spike. Companies start to understand that direct investment can disappear overnight as raided foreign companies are forced to leave the country. Protesters take over Hotels in Kyiv and return to Maidan to demand the resignation of the Ukraine rulers who came to power with the support of Washington and Brussels. Yatsenyuk now becomes a liability for its partner NATO.

It is a just matter of time before the Ukraine nationalistic militias will take power, resulting in a definite split of the country. Poroshenko can postpone the people final verdict by reviving the war in the east, but in the end, he can not escape the day of reconning."

Could a Bomb Blast in Ankara Change the Outcome of the War in Syria?

Greg Krasovsky: If US policy toward the civil war in Ukraine is in any way similar to US policy in Syria, Iraq, Libya, Afghanistan and Yemen, then Ukraine is headed toward the epicenter of a geopolitical disaster on world-wide proportions.

Why? Because Russia will act with greater response than in Syria to make sure that next-door Ukraine will not turn into a failed state that could (would!) be used by armed anti-Russian militants as a protected staging area in an attempt to overthrow Vladimir Putin's in Russia.

So let's keep an eye on Syria today, as the fates of Ukraine, Russia and America -- for better or for worse -- are intertwined in the resolution of the Syrian conflict.

Could a Bomb Blast in Ankara Change the Outcome of the War in Syria?
by MIKE WHITNEY
Counterpunch.org
FEBRUARY 19, 2016

"The question is whether Putin will engage the Turkish military in a full-blown war just to recapture a few hundred meters of Syrian sovereign territory. I expect Putin will let the incident slide and chalk it up to “frustration” on Turkey’s part. If that’s the only victory that Erdogan requires, then it’s a price that’s worth paying. Putin has to stay focused on the big picture, and not get diverted by trivialities.

Of course, if Erdogan plans to push further into Syria, then there’s going to be trouble. After all, Moscow’s hands are tied. The only way it can hope to extricate itself from the conflict in Syria is by defeating the jihadists as quickly as possible, clearing out the hotbeds of resistance, and reestablishing security. If Turkey enters the war, that throws a wrench in everything. The tit-for-tat fighting will drag on for years, and there will probably never be a clear winner. This is exactly what Putin hopes to avoid. So, if Turkey launches an invasion and sends in ground troops, Putin will be forced to strike with everything-he’s-got to see if one, big shock and awe display of raw military power is enough to reverse the trend and send Erdogan’s legions packing. If it doesn’t work, and Turkey digs in, Syria could devolve into the mother of all quagmires, which is why we’re a little surprised that Obama is not pursuing a plan that would draw Turkey deeper into the fray, after all, Washington gains nothing strategically from its support for the YPG. In a way, the alliance makes no sense. Does Washington care about Kurdish aspirations for a homeland?

No. Does Obama want to help Putin clear the area North of Aleppo of jihadists, militants and opposition forces?

Of course not. Then what does Washington get?

Nothing.

An alliance with Erdogan, on the other hand, provides Washington with the footsoldiers it needs to fight its proxy war with Russia. It also creates a situation where Russia could get bogged down for years in a conflict that could drain its resources, undermine morale, and precipitate social unrest at home. Isn’t that exactly what Washington wants?"

NATO: Seeking Russia’s Destruction Since 1949?

NATO: Seeking Russia’s Destruction Since 1949

A very insightful article written by GARY LEUPP and published by counterpunch.org on December 25, 2015

Gary Leupp is Professor of History at Tufts University, and holds a secondary appointment in the Department of Religion.

Selected Excerpt:

"Russia:  an “Existential Threat”?

First of all, the NATO advocates, however often they repeat that “We’re not against Russia, this isn’t about Russia,” do indeed posit an enduring Russian threat. Thus General Sir Adrian Bradshaw, the most senior British officer in NATO, stated last February that Russia poses “an obvious existential threat to our whole being.” Gen. Joseph Votel, head of the U.S. Special Operations Command told the Aspen Security Forum in July that “Russia could pose an existential threat to the United States.”

House Armed Services Committee Chairman Mac Thornberry (R-Texas) warned Obama to sign a military appropriations bill because Russia poses “an existential threat” to the U.S.  Philanthropist George Soros (who likes to finance “color revolutions”) wrote in the New York review of Books in October that “Europe is facing a challenge from Russia to its very existence.”

These are wild, stupid words coming from highly placed figures. Isn’t it obvious that Russia is the one being surrounded, pressured and threatened? That its military budget is a fraction of the U.S.’s, its global military presence miniscule in relation to the U.S. footprint?

But anyone watching the U.S. presidential candidates’ debates—and who can perceive the prevalence of paranoia about Russia, the unthinking acceptance of the “Putin as Hitler” theme, and the obligatory expression of determination to make America more “strong”—can understand why the expansion of NATO is so horribly dangerous.

People who do not think rationally or whose minds are twisted by arrogance can look at the maps of NATO expansion and think proudly, “This is how it should be! Why would anyone question the need for nations to protect themselves by allying with the United States? It’s alliances like NATO that preserve peace and stability in the world.”

(Some are able to believe that, perhaps, but the fact is the world has become less peaceful and far less stable than it was during the Cold War when the two superpowers checked one another’s moves. Thereafter the U.S. emerged as what a French diplomat has called an “hyper-puissance” or hyper-power intervening with impunity in multiple countries and producing new, often ugly forms of resistance.)"

Putin’s “Endgame” in Syria.

Putin’s “Endgame” in Syria.

Global Research - Centre for Research on Globalization.

Russia doesn’t want to fight a war with Turkey, so Russian generals devised a simple, but effective plan to discourage Turkey from taking any action that could lead to a clash between the two nations.

Last week, Russian warplanes intruded into Turkish airspace twice. Both incidents caused consternation in Ankara and send Turkish leaders into a furor. 

On both occasions, officials in Moscow politely apologized for the incursions claiming they were unintentional (“navigational errors”) and that they would try to avoid similar intrusions in the future.

Then there was a third incident, a more serious incident, that was not a mistake. It was clearly intended to send a message to Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan. 

Here’s a short summary of what happened from an article at the World Socialist Web Site:

Turkish officials claimed a third incident on Monday, when an unidentified MiG-29 fighter jet locked its radar for four and a half minutes on eight Turkish F-16 jets that were on patrol on their side of the border, in apparent preparation to open fire.

(“US, NATO step up threats to Russia over Syria“, World Socialist Web Site)
 
This was no mistake. The only time a fighter pilot adopts these protocols is when he plans to take down an enemy plane. This was a message, and while it might have been over-the-heads of the politicians and the media but, I assure you, every general in the Turkish High-Command knows what’s it means.

This is a wake-up call.  Moscow is indicating that there’s a new sheriff in town and that Turkey had better behave itself or there’s going to be trouble.
 
There’s not going to be any US-Turkey no-fly zone over North Syria, there’s not going to be any aerial attacks on Syrian sites from the Turkish side of the border, and there certainly is not going to be any ground invasion of Turkish troops into Syria. 

The Russian Aerospace Defence Forces now control the skies over Syria and they are determined to defend Syria’s sovereign borders.

That’s the message. Period.
