This has to be really bad
A top problem of Ukraine has been corruption and cronyism, so it may raise eyebrows that new Finance Minister Natalie Jaresko, an ex-U.S. diplomat and newly minted Ukrainian citizen, was involved in insider dealings while managing a $150 million U.S. AID-backed investment fund, writes Robert Parry.
The resolution (paragraph 3) accuses Russia of an invasion of Ukraine and condemns Russia’s violation of Ukrainian sovereignty. The statement is offered without any proof of such a thing.
With full support from Washington and Brussels, the Kiev regime, led by irresponsible demagogues like CIA-sponsored prime minister Arseniy Yatsenyuk and the oligarch-president, Petro Poroshenko, has already instigated a litany of disasters. More than 4,000 people have died in Kiev’s military onslaught against fellow Ukrainians and up to one million have been turned into refugees. The Kiev military has used internationally banned cluster bombs on civilian areas and deploys neo-Nazi paramilitary battalions that have committed wholesale war crimes. A civilian airliner was downed last July with the loss of 298 lives, most likely as a result of Kiev’s military machinations. Ukraine’s economy and infrastructure has been destroyed, with the impact worsened by Kiev’s declared economic blockade on the eastern regions – a Nuremberg crime of collective punishment.
I actually think you are capable of being this narrow-visioned, and a lot more of you are out there, SCARY.
The US House of Representatives has joined Hillary Clinton, Obama, the neoconservatives, Washington’s vassals, and the American and European presstitutes in demonizing Russia and President Putin. The House resolution against Russia is a packet of lies, but that did not stop the resolution from passing by a vote of 411 for and 10 against.
The entire world should take note that the American people are capable of electing only ten intelligent representatives. Ten people out of 435 is 2 percent. And yet Washington declares itself to be the “exceptional,” “indispensable” country empowered to exercise hegemony over the world!
Political life is full of ambitious persons and agendas. Putin faces these ambitions in Russia. Washington knows that Russia cannot be turned into a vassal state as long as Putin is in office. Therefore, the demonization of Putin and plots against him will continue.

Is it just me or is the whole racial tensions being portrayed in the media a perfect cover for starting WW3 ?

Ron Paul ONLY knows about self-promotion. I hope he runs for Prez. The whole counrty will see what an idiot this guys is. But he will succeed in his REAL business - getting more money from his sad, mis-guided supporters. This guy's a clown.
Urgent action is needed to minimise the risk of a nuclear war, more than 120 senior military, political and diplomatic figures from across the world have warned.
Ahead of the Vienna Conference on the Humanitarian Impact of Nuclear Weapons, which starts today, the experts wrote in a letter that the danger of such a conflict was “underestimated or insufficiently understood” by world leaders.

You remember the one ring that didn't light up? You remember the tear falling down the cheek of the huge giant bear mascot? You think those were purely coincidental? Putin was already acting a little "big for his britches". Remember the crappy rooms the US athletes got in the new hotels that weren't finished? Showers that had brown water running out of them? The many dogs running loose in the streets? Kissinger is pretty well-versed in foreign matters but let's face it, he's an observer now just like you or me.
Why focus on that which divides humanity like bad hotel rooms can you not see that the same god/infinate energy/counsiousness in every particle of you is the same as the god/infinate energy/counsiousness in Putin? Can you not see that to hate another is to hate another part of yourself? Why focus on negatives, rather than awaken to a greater and higher counsiousness that all is one.
It is my belief that you have the same soul as Putin or any one else you dislike them or love for that matter, try to overcome that which divides you from the other parts of yourself and see that which connects all of the universe god/infinate energy/counsiousness.
If one were to subscribe to this nonsense there would be no need for discussion boards about anything, after all we are all connected to the same god/infinite energy/consciousness...so we really have nothing at all to discuss now, do we?

Have something a bit more credible than globalresearch as they have proven that they are pro RUssian supporters through this whole conflict....which means they are as biased as RT when it comes to what Russia has done in Ukraine.
Whiche Sources do you rely on that are credible and neutral. Since you are neither pro- russian or pro western ? Or are you a pro-western supporter, supporting a pro-western point of view?

Tell you what care to take the question yourself and find something that isn't coming from an established Russian backing site, which means find something that is more credible then them...otherwise known as something corroborating that is isn't biased towards RUssia.
If you can do that then you may have something until then I see globalresearch as the same as RT.
Wait a second here, global research is a site we've used for years as a source on ATS.
So just because they APPEAR to side with Russia's handling of the situation in Ukraine (which I haven't even looked to see yet, just taking your word for it)- all of a sudden they are the same as RT?
