Refusing to place the monument in
Manhattan, or on the scenic Jersey City waterfront (where Goldman Sachs is
Headquartered), US authorities instead dump Putin’s gift in a depressed and
unseen spot in Bayonne, NJ. (around the corner from a
junkyard!) The media gives the beautiful memorial, dedicated by Putin
himself, a total silent treatment.

Associated Press= MOSCOW (AP) — Russia on Monday accused the West of effectively trying to use blackmail to secure a new U.N. Security Council resolution that would authorize the use of force in Syria.
Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov’s comments came ahead of a meeting with Kofi Annan, the United Nations and Arab League envoy for Syria whose plan for halting the fighting is weakening amid escalating violence.
The council is debating a new resolution on Syria, spurred by the July 20 expiration of the mandate for the U.N. observer force there and the failure of the Annan plan.
Nabucco – the alleged gas Holy Grail from the Caspian Sea to Europe, 4,000 kilometers from Turkey to Austria – is the perennial Pipelineistan soap opera.
New roles for Russian politicians have been found in a poll, which aimed to explore people’s “subconscious” vision of the country’s prominent figures by matching politicians with their Pinocchio counterparts.

While this article doesnt reveal anything that most people who follow international politics didnt already know, I found it interesting considering the puppet aspect, as most people think that Putin never really left his post as president of Russia.
Vladimir Putin won a resounding victory in Russia’s presidential election on Sunday, exit polls showed, securing a new six-year term in the Kremlin and a mandate to deal with opposition protests after a vote that opponents said was marred by fraud.

Russia’s Gazprom, the world’s biggest energy conglomerate, is reportedly sending top executives to Israel to discuss a partnership in the country’s offshore gas fields, a move likely to heighten tension over an energy bonanza in the eastern Mediterranean.
Ynet, the English-language Web site of Israel’s Yediot Ahronot mass-circulation Hebrew daily, said a Gazprom team has scheduled meetings with the consortium that made major strikes in 2009-10 and expects to make more.
This consists of the Noble Energy Inc. of Houston and Israel’s Delek Group headed by tycoon Yitzhak Tshuva.
The Russians reportedly are interested in a partnership in the Leviathan field, the biggest gas zone found so far in Israel’s exclusive economic zone. It contains an estimated 16 trillion cubic feet of gas. The next biggest field is Tamar, which contains an estimated 8 tcf.
In the bowels of power in every country right now there is a map with a target painted on the Levant Basin. Look for this area to be warzone soon.
Existential– 1. Of existence, 2.of existentialism
Threat– 1. An expression of intention to hurt, destroy, punish, etc.
Sabre rattling at Iran is at a fever pitch. Israel and the U.S. keep repeating the same phrase over and over that Iran is an existential threat, but according to the head of the Israeli spy agency, the Mossad, chief Tamir Pardo, A nuclear-armed Iran wouldn’t necessarily constitute a threat to Israel’s continued existence. http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/news/mossad-chief-nuclear-iran-not-necessarily-existential-threat-to-israel-1.404227
Yet it goes on and on, in talk radio, network news, all over the web. Some how, no matter how much evidence is presented that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon, people still think Iran is building a nuclear weapon.
The IAEA and all 16 United States Intelligence Agencies are unanimous in agreement that Iran is not building and does not possess nuclear weapons. Iran allows IAEA inspections of all its facilities. Iran’s formal notification to the IAEA of the planned construction of the backup fuel-rod facility underscores that Iran is playing by the rules of the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty which Iran has signed.
Soooooooooooooo, if Iran, according to all these different sources, (including Israel), is not building nukes, what is the problem?
According to the Brookings Institute on pages 24 and 25 of their “Which Path to Persia?” report, that the real threat is not the deployment of these weapons, but rather the deterrence they present, allowing Iran to counter US influence in the region without the fear of an American invasion.
As i have written in an earlier post, “By controlling Iran, the projection of NATO power into Eurasia can proceed, Russia can be reduced to an impotent backwater or ‘Black Hole’ and China dealt with on stronger political terms”. https://nakeddissidence.wordpress.com/2012/01/29/it-isnt-about-iran-its-about-china-and-russia/
American media have an agenda, almost a compulsion to promote war with a country we don’t need to invade. With Russia and China possibly backing Iran, this is a possible extinction level event, for you, me, EVERYBODY!!! And for what? LIES, LIES, LIES!!!!!!
I don’t know how this can be prevented. I hope that our government shows common sense and compassion, and just for once just let the people of Iran be.
So why are they a threat?
What reason would the US government and Israel have in declaring war? Well Iran is head of OPEC, they are a sovereign nation not in the grip of the IMF, it’s a country of massive oil wealth, and has alot of influence in the mid-east, the US helped put the Shah in power for just that reason.
Iran also has some pretty BIG friends. The Dragon and the Bear, aka China and Russia.
Beijing, relies heavily on Iranian oil imports, and Moscow has close commercial ties and built Iran’s only nuclear power plant. This coupled with each countries individual rise on the global stage, as well as cooperation with each other have upset Washington.
China on the one hand is fast becoming the predominant superpower, with some analysts predicting that China will surpass the US economy as soon as 2016. Russia has and abundance of oil and natural gas, for some months Russian production of crude oil has surpassed Saudi Arabia’s to be the world’s largest oil producer with over 10.3 million barrels daily, nearly one million barrels more.[1] And in terms of known reserves of natural gas Russia is far away the world leader according to industry data.
Whats the endgame?
Between the both of these countries, the once dominant American Empire faces a big challenge. Iran is important because whoever controls Iran controls the flow of up to 40% of the worlds oil wealth, not to mention other energy reserves and mineral wealth, putting an economic stranglehold on China and Russia’s interests.
By controlling Iran, the projection of NATO power into Eurasia can proceed, Russia can be reduced to an impotent backwater or ‘Black Hole’ and China dealt with on stronger political terms.
This is all leading up to another war no one wants, but will be forced to endure, under that always clever line of making the world
