I know, it is nauseating, but still, please do watch it. What Poroshenko is saying is that which the US deep state is thinking and, as such, it deserves our utmost attention (even if that means grabbing a psychological barf bag).
And for those of you who might get seriously distressed by this sickening and hate-filled ceremony, I have included a short video showing that this nothing new: senates have always been brothels for oligarchs and spineless hypocrites.
And remember – the fact that they say so does not make it so :-)
Kind regards,

Every time there’s a vegetarian up there, the US’ Polit Buro critters are reminded of where most of the funding for their next [re-]election actually comes from.
The first one to stop clapping loses $100K or shoots and stabs him/herself 66 times in the back in an apparent [yet successful] suicide attempt.
Oh, and where is the Obabuma? The cover up boy? Well, every bad things happening for certain reason and here every single US citizen can see in live what kind of hypocratic swines they have in the congres they have voted for.

I’d like to scan-read it to get the underlying substance but I was unable to watch the sickening procedure or the one in Canada either.
Standing ovations for ethnic cleansing and support for neo-Fascism shows you what a cesspool the administrations in the USA and Canada both are.

In some independent newspaper from one of the former Eastern European country was an article about this lier Porky that he will be dragged one day across the Kiev by his very sensitive part of his body.

Interesting stuff on China-India relations. A China-India alliance is as much a ZPC/NWO nightmare as a China-Russian one. Asians making amends is the last thing Israeli, American and Euro fascists want. The worst fears of Mackinder & co. It means the sods will have to share (cue valley grrrrl screeching and wailing sounds).

You’re funny.
If we put aside emotional reactions to the the despicable speaker and audience, Poroshenko is offering Putin a federalized Eastern Ukraine in return for a unified Ukraine that includes Crimea. Putin cannot accept this poisoned offer, but the fact that it is made remains important. Poroshenko does want to deal with Putin but his US masters will not permit it. At least the contemplated war is economic and not military, which is a comfort here but less to those who must suffer the privations there.

It is not SSRI’s but PALM OIL which is scientifically shown to produce inflamation of the brain compared to animal fats and other vegetable fats.
It is also Calcium proprionate added to most bread which causes social impairment.
Flouride obviously lowers intelligence and aspartame added to so many products now. All these ingedients have a plausible excuse to be in the food chain. However each is a pharmacutical agent in its own right. There may be many more.
It is easy to get nervous when nothing is overtly moving. All sorts of gremlims come into play.
UE is the sideshow. It always has been. Reconstructing RU, post sanctions, is the main game. One could argue that sanctions have some worth if used properly ie ‘You never let a serious crisis go to waste. -RE’. And IMO that is what Putin is about.
The RU-zionist oligarghs are now suffering a bit of diahhrea regarding the jailing
of one of them. This has been coming in the sense that Putin has talked about
bringing the money back in to RU, re-investing it locally etc etc on numerous
occasions. Was nobody listening? A good portion of this money was made/stolen when
the USSR collapsed and now it may be payback time. Maybe the talking time is over,
maybe it is a bit of St. Petersburg blow-back. (Anyone notice how very little NGO
anti-RU election campaigning was reported by anyone – RU and the West. Tells me
something.) Is it oligarch-pogrom time?
RU is moving more to the East everyday. There may be less anti-RU propaganda
because EU is sensing the move and winter is coming and already the reverse-flow
gas projects are in trouble. Lavrov’s statements, Duma speakers statements.
Gazprom hinting at China taking more of the EU gas allotment. The writing is being
written on the wall. The gas pipeline out of Qutar is someone’s wet dream. It will
never happen. Who is going to defend it? Ami LNG? Qatar LNG? Check the price of
that stuff. LOL.
The EU itself has completely capitulated to the USSA. The EU parliament went
ballistic the other day, cancel SWIFT!, cancel Southstream! they scream. In its
latest issue GEAB (Global European Anticipation Bulletin) #87 speaks of the total
breakdown of the ‘european project’. It will soon be every rat for itself, leaving
the sinking ship of EU. Who will be first? GR? Notice how the EU is exploring the
contact to the Eurasian union.
IMO Novorussia will survive. But it seems that it needs to get a bit organized,
maybe throww off its oligarghs? Maybe trash that fuedal system of governance?
Maybe that is asking too much for the moment? Money always talks the loudest.
Maybe the confusion in the military ranks is by design? Who knows. Maybe a test of
resolve? NR needs to stand on its own. An army doesn’t guarantee civil governance.
Where are the everyday folks in this equation? I don’t see any mass movement in
one direction or the other.
Kiew is in self-destruct mode. Porky’s hate-rant in the ussa congress/circus was a
plea for self-survival. The pro-nazis in kiew want to hang him high for the Minsk
agreement. Maybe he should be asking for asylum in RU. Contrary to what some
posters think, I don’t think Kiew is getting stronger with the passage of time. On
the contrary, IMO it is getting weaker, more out of control. All it’s doing is
eating up cash, time and resources. It’s GDP is crashing, its exports are down.
There is nothing that is working. And winter is coming.
Europe is losing control and not listening to UE as much as before. They will soon
be very happy if RU takes UE off of their hands. Notice the moves to Syraq by the
idiotic FR, the silence of mutti merkel. Europe can do very little anymore. It
fell into the ussa trap and it has been emasculated (if it ever did have any
balls). The Poles are not the only ones giving the ussa BJs.

So, Ukraine is declared a scene of the “global fight for Democracy”… How interesting. Supposedly, the only or the most important one.
The place where some oligarchs were removed by force and others that were under the thrown ones came to power on the shoulders of Nationalists who are on the verge of starting yet another Maidan!
After all – what IS the definition and practical realization of Democracy?
I was impressed by the general air of deranged hysteria of the ‘Leaders of the Free World’. You would almost think that it was Netan-yahoo up there. Is Poroshenko ‘Chosen’, too?

Jana, the Orwellian mendacity or self-delusion of the psychopaths who run the ‘Free World’ is really growing quite intense. One new feature is the erasure from history of the sniper killings in the Maidan that signaled the fascist and neo-Nazi putsch. The Polish Nazi Sikorski was on our ABC radio propaganda sewer a couple of weeks back, and his version is that Yanukovich just ran away, for mysterious reasons, to do with his corruption and sundry other vices. The sniper killings, so useful in propaganda once, have now been ‘disappeared’ down the ‘Memory Hole’, and other, local, MSM stooges have taken to peddling the same garbage. It signals, I imagine, that the Nazis want the sniper killings forgotten, which is interesting.
Daniel Rich, Netanyahoo got 29 standing ovations, but don’t forget the kneeling ovations and the fully prostrate, head-banging, groveling ovations. A few laggards, who pleaded arthritis as an excuse for not fully abasing themselves, will be dealt with by AIPAC for their ‘antisemitism’.

WizOz, throughout their history there have been many Jews who kept their religion secret, for fear of persecution, and perhaps for other reasons. The most famous of these ‘crypto-Jews’ were the doenmeh in the Ottoman Empire, ostensibly converted to Islam, but secretly maintaining their membership of what in many ways is the world’s oldest organised crime gang. The most famous of these was Mustapha Kemal.

They are also monumental hypocrites, criticising their victims for sins that they are the world greatest exponents of. And, needless to say, they live to kill, as many as possible, anywhere that they can, particularly children. Only a Western top ghoul, like the diabolical Madeleine Albright could speak of the 500,000 Iraqi children coldly murdered by Western imposed sanctions as a price that was ‘Worth it’.
47 minutes??? With some of the most disgusting people on the world speaking and listen to…
Can you explain to us the most important sick ideas they vomit on that ‘historic’ day, Saker???
Did you know that every FEDERAL US politician (elected members of the Houses of Congress- Senators and Representatives)can LEGALLY engage in ‘insider trading’. For those of you uncertain as to what this means, ‘insider trading’ is when you participate in the trade of company shares when in possession of information from within the management of the company itself.
‘Insider trading’ is highly illegal for all ordinary Americans. However, since the Declaration of Independence, US politicians voted to place themselves ABOVE the Law. Remember, ‘Animal Farm’ with some animals more ‘equal’ than others?
Most US Federal (as opposed to local politicians who serve in State parliaments or councils) elected individuals leave their post multi-millionaires. Many become billionaires. All via practices that would have them locked up for ‘corruption’ in any other nation of the West.
Immunity from Insider Trading Laws place every US politician in the pockets of big business and special interest groups. No ‘black’ politician can win a seat in Congress, for instance, unless he/she swears dying allegiance to Israel. Jews are a tiny minority in the USA, and the ‘blacks’ are a massive minority, but the Jews have worked tirelessly to keep the ‘blacks’ under their thumb since slavery was first abolished.
The sickening standing ovations you witness in the US Houses of Congress occur because each of the hyper-corrupt scum-bags is aware all eyes are upon them. Not to stand marks you out as a ‘problem’- and it is far ‘safer’ never to have that designation.
Behind the scenes, in private, US politicians act according to their special interests, and the uniformity of the public show is lost.
The majority of US politicians simply enjoy riding the gravy-train. War is frequently BAD for their business, especially war that arises from poking the ‘Bear’. Only a minority of US politicians ride the insane ‘military-industrial’ complex, else we’d already be in WW3.
So, most of those standing to applaud Poroshenko know he is a useless, incompetent war-mongering stooge- but he is America’s stooge in a project supported by the leadership of the Republicans and Democrats.
If you feel sick watching parliamentary politics in the USA, so you should. Remember, before slavery was abolished, most senior US politicians, including almost every president, was proud to be a child-raping slave owner. The heart of US politics has always been profoundly sick and evil. The US Constitution (a towering achievement in concept) was actually a creation of British Libertarians – American ‘Independence’ was nothing more than the creation of the new, improved Britain Two, and dear lord was that project successful.
America’s real rulers have always been ‘hidden’ elites- but this system is vulnerable to falling under the control of Demons without anyone noticing. PNAC marking the intention to launch the coup, and since 9/11 the monsters have been in firm control.
Mark Twain had their measure 150 years ago:
“Suppose you were an idiot. And suppose you were a member of Congress. But I repeat myself”.
“It could probably be shown by facts and figures that there is no distinctly American criminal class except Congress”.

Meanwhile, the US applied various means of economic warfare against Russia. These means are called “sanctions”, though this word is misleading. “Sanctions” are acts of a legitimate authority towards its subjects; such are Security Council sanctions. The US and EU’s measures against Russia aren’t “sanctions” but acts of war on Russia by economic means.

One of the Russian signatories was Chubias. He was Yeltsin’s economic adviser, fully signed up to Western (i.e. US) ‘liberal’ economic policies and responsible for the degradation of the USSR into a criminal oligarchy. He is associated with the generally despised Western ‘liberal Russia’ block. He is the very antithesis of Putin. Anything Chubais lays his hands to is dead in the water for Putin and ordinary Russians are concerned.

Ukraine, Poland and Lithuania form joint military unit
REUTERS
(Reuters) – Ukraine, Poland and Lithuania launched a joint military force on Friday that Polish President Bronislaw Komorowski said could start its first exercises in the tense region in the next year.
The three countries and other states in the area have been on high alert since Russia annexed Ukraine’s Crimea region in March – and Western powers accused Moscow of sending troops to back rebels in eastern Ukraine.
Polish defense officials said the new joint unit could take part in peacekeeping operations, or form the basis of a NATO battle group if one was needed in the future.
[.]”I hope that it will be possible to hold first exercises in one year,” Komorowski said after the three countries’ defense ministers signed an agreement setting up the unit.
“This is part of a wider plan … to support Ukraine, among others, in the area of modernization,” he added.
= = = = =
Yes indeed this is “part of a wider plan”
Cease-fire talks any one?
“Qatar LNG? Check the price of

Actually it’s at the lowest since the Great East Japan Tsunami and some years before as well. LNG tanker rates have never been so low. The UK has two large LNG terminals running at minimum capacity and a pipeline that can be reversed from buying 20Bn cu metres a year from Russia to selling the same to Europe, a 40 Bn cu metre reversal. Bigger than North Stream. The absence of reality checks on this site is extremely noticeable. Only the owner seems to have ocassional moments of lucidity. I think I quit. I can’t stand the reality reversals any more.

The EU documents you linked to make a reference to the murder of Mykola Zelenec, a Ukrainian businessman who was also the Honorary Lithuanian Consul in Lugansk.
Apparently he was kidnapped in August, in Lugansk area and found murdered on the 22nd August. The murderers are assumed to be ‘Russian terrorists’ – there’s a surprise. But there is no real evidence, other than he was found dead. The story appears to originate with the Lithuanian Minister of Foreign Affairs, Linas Linkevicius.
A report by the rabid anti-Russia BBC notes that “Lithuania is among the most vociferous EU member states in its criticism of Russian actions in Ukraine”.
Does anyone know any more about this story? Other than the fact the man was found dead, the story smells like Surströmming to me.

But in our case (the Kaganate of Nu-land)they don’t hide anymore (World’s Largest Jewish Center Opens in Dnepropetrovsk… spearheaded by philanthropist Gennady Bogolubov, president of the local Jewish community and chairman of the Ukrainian Jewish Congress, and his Privat banking partner Igor Kolomoyskyy!).
October 26 early parliamentary elections: Poroshenko tries to present himself as a new “father” of the nation with an artistic haircut, while Avakov, Turchinov, Yatsenyuk have embraced all the Nazi battalions in the new movement/party, The National Front, and Tymoshenko’s Fatherland has adopted NATO as her main program; she does have one more idea–an all-out war against Russia. Poroshenko keeps saying much the same. So these are the three essential options which the junta is allowing.
The junta as a whole and in almost all its segments, moreover, dreams and desires to run a military dictatorship. The liberal and democratic pretense annoys them; and Avakov and the Right Sector would almost vomit if they had to say few more good things about democracy and liberalism.

Deal reached on enforcing Ukraine ceasefire
Agreement reached for creation of buffer zone and withdrawal of foreign fighters from conflict zone in eastern Ukraine.
Participants in Ukrainian peace talks have agreed to create a buffer zone to separate government troops and pro-Russian fighters, as well as withdraw foreign fighters and heavy weapons from the area of conflict in eastern Ukraine.
The deal reached early on Saturday by representatives of Ukraine, Russia, the Moscow-backed rebels and the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) marked an effort to add substance to a ceasefire agreement that was signed on September 5 but has been frequently broken by clashes.
The new deal signed after hours of talks that dragged late into the night envisages setting up a buffer zone that would be 30 kilometres wide.
They said after the talks in the Belarusian capital Minsk that all heavy weapons should be withdrawn from that zone.
The negotiators also reached agreement on the withdrawal of all foreign fighters and mercenaries – a diplomatic reference to Russians fighting alongside the rebels.
‘Mercenaries on both sides’
Ukraine and the West have accused Russia of fuelling the insurgency in the mostly Russian-speaking Donetsk and Luhansk provinces in eastern Ukraine with weapons and soldiers.
Moscow has denied that, saying that Russians who joined the mutiny did so as private citizens.
Pressed to comment about the agreement on the withdrawal of foreign fighters, Russian Ambassador to Ukraine, Mikhail Zurabov, who represented Moscow in the talks, said that “those whom we call mercenaries are present on both sides”.
He said that the OSCE should control the pullout of foreign fighters.
Heidi Tagliavini, an OSCE envoy at the talks, said that the group’s monitors will be deployed to the buffer zone to monitor the deal.
The negotiators have left aside the most controversial issue – the future status of the rebel regions.
The Ukrainian parliament this week passed a law giving a broad autonomy to the areas controlled by the rebels, including the power to hold local elections and form their own police force.
Alexander Zakharchenko, the leader of rebels in Donetsk, said that Ukraine and the rebels have various interpretation of the law and the talks should continue.

Parties at Minsk Talks Agree on Memorandum Regulating Ukrainian Ceasefire Implementation
MINSK, September 20 (RIA Novosti) – Kiev authorities and pro-independence fighters in southeastern Ukraine have agreed on complete ceasefire, establishment of the buffer zone, withdrawal of heavy weapons away from the contact line on both sides, and deployment of the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE) monitoring mission.
Early Saturday morning parties at the talks in Minsk – Russia, Ukraine, the self-proclaimed Donetsk and Luhansk People’s republics and the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) – aligned positions and formulated a memorandum of nine provisions that will regulate the implementation of a ceasefire agreement between Kiev and independence supporters in eastern Ukraine. Leonid Kuchma, former Ukrainian president representing the country at the talks, read out the provisions of the memorandum at the conclusion of the talks.
MINSK MEMORANDUM
1. Ceasefire is to be considered bilateral.
2. Military elements and military formations shall be stopped at their contact line as of September 19.
3. Usage of all kinds of weapons and offensive actions are prohibited.
4. Within 24 hours after the approval of this memorandum weapons with a calibre of more than 100 millimeters shall be moved at least 15 kilometers away from the contact line on both sides, including from the residential areas, which would create an opportunity to establish a 30-kilometers buffer zone.
5. Deployment of heavy weapons and heavy equipment in the region confined by the residential areas [Kuchma did not specify which areas are listed in the memorandum] is prohibited.
6. Placing of mine barriers at the border of the buffer zone is prohibited. Mine barriers that were placed earlier within the buffer zone shall be removed.
7. Flights of operational aircrafts and foreign aerial vehicles except for the vehicles of the OSCE over the buffer zone are prohibited.
8. In the ceasefire zone the OSCE monitoring mission, consisting of the group of the organization’s observers shall be deployed within 24 hours after the approval of this memorandum. It is desirable that the above mentioned zone shall be divided into sectors. The number of the sectors’ borders shall be negotiated in the course of the preparation to the work of the OSCE monitoring mission’s group of observers.
9. All the foreign armed groups, military equipment, as well as fighters and mercenaries shall withdraw from the Ukrainian territory under the supervision of the OSCE.

WizOz, the ‘Treasured Nation’ has taken over Ukraine pretty completely. That good old ‘business acumen’, famous for centuries. So hard not to admire. Yes, the Marranos. I heard of a group that migrated to Mexico, then got sprung, so they high-tailed it to Arizona or New Mexico, quite early on in the Hispanic Conquest. They are burdened with much history, that is for certain. Today’s is, regretably, a very black period in that history, where their moral short-comings are on open display.
Yonatan, that would be the Lithuania where the fascist authorities attempted to prosecute a very elderly woman (a Jew to boot) for the crime of killing Lithuanian Nazis while fighting as a Soviet partisan during WW2. I knew a few Balt refugees at school, the children of those who fled after the war. Nasty shits.

Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko’s trip to Washington, DC will follow those of a number of shameless pandering foreign leaders who held their hands out for American cash, military assistance, and propaganda support. Like next month’s Halloween “Trick or Treat” tradition that witnesses children going door-to-door begging for candy treats, chocolate tycoon Poroshenko will be begging Washington’s political leaders for hundreds of millions of dollars or more in aid without even offering a chocolate bar in return.
However, Poroshenko’s speech will become forgotten as soon at it is given. Today, few, if any, older members of Congress would recall similar addresses by NATO allies such as Italian Prime Minister Giulio Andreotti, Dutch Queen Beatrix, or Canadian Governor General Vincent Massey. All those speeches became, as will Poroshenko’s, insignificant footnotes of history.
As the political leader of one of NATO’s aspirant members, Poroshenko will discover in Washington that NATO leaders have no more influence over Washington’s military, diplomatic, financial, and intelligence apparatus as a low-level British colonial governor of some far-flung colony of the British Empire had with the Colonial Office in London. The political leaders of NATO member states come and go in Washington. After President and Mrs Poroshenko are treated to various diplomatic niceties, including the standard shopping trip at Washington’s most expensive boutiques and department stores for Ukraine’s First Lady while her husband engages in talks with government leaders, Poroshenko will further commit his nation to never-ending dictates from NATO headquarters in Brussels, the Pentagon, the World Bank and International Monetary Fund, and the Eurocrats of Brussels. The Faustian deal for every new and prospective NATO member is that they will be forced to integrate their military forces with NATO, which means windfall profits for Lockheed-Martin, Northrop Grumman, Boeing, and other Western military contractors eager to replace older weapons platforms, including aircraft, with “standardized” NATO hardware.
Poroshenko will also be feted by a number of Ukrainian-American and Ukrainian-Canadian organizations that have historically backed the most reactionary and fascist-aligned elements in Ukraine. In the United States, these right-wing Ukrainian diaspora communities are concentrated in New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, New Jersey, northern Illinois, and California. These Ukrainian groups, which include the United Ukrainian American Relief Committee and the US-Ukraine Foundation, have donated bulletproof vests, night-vision goggles, helmets, and boots to the Ukrainian military and national guard/militia forces without interference from US defense export authorities.
Poroshenko will leave North America for Ukraine after signing Ukraine up to become a NATO and US military and economic client state. Europe is replete with countries that joined NATO and the EU only to find themselves being pressured to increase their defense spending to help engage in foolhardy sabre-rattling represented by new “missile defense” and other weapons systems aimed at countries like Russia and Iran, as well as to subjugate their economies to draconian austerity measures demanded by global bankers in Frankfurt, London, and New York.
His excellency? Ugh! This man is repulsive!
Btw, this shows how crazy they have become in western Ukraine. http://youtu.be/dDEHpEj7cYo
These men are giving this shopkeeper a hard time for selling flower garlands of red, white and blue (colors of the Russian flag). Watch how the police officer responds. Unbelievable!
I found this link posted on the comments section of the article about Poroshenko ‘ s speech in the Guardian. If you read these comments you will see that their readers know what’s going on and do not like it one bit.
Be aware that the Guardian’s internal censors routinely and vigorously delete comments and block the accounts of those they deem to be dismantling the Guardian’s Ukraine-spin-bias-narrative too effectively.
Likewise, Guardian comments sections is replete with rightwing Atlanticist parrots that are given full latitude to spread their repetitive pro-Kiev, anti-Moscow disinformation with impunity from such censorship.
First time post…
In scanning the ~140 comments above I don’t believe I’ve seen any mention of perhaps the most dangerous part: Poroshenko’s thinly veiled threat to obtain nuclear weapons and pursue war with Russia over Crimea:
“Many things, including the effectiveness of the Global Non-Proliferation System, will be put under severe test and judgment depending on the response of America…”
He makes this threat in passing from 10:00-10:11, but it is worth going back to 9:43 to hear him placing it in the context of “Russian aggression” to defend Russian-speaking peoples in nearby countries (he amusingly declares of these Russophones “even in Germany there is a very big majority”-!).
This was not merely a passing phrase; the following article quotes the Kiev junta’s Defense Minister Geletei as saying: “Ukraine will choose to drop its nuclear-free status and arm its army with nuclear weapons in the event that ‘the world does not help [the country].'”
