There are plenty of enablers all over the globe. Any country aligned with the U.S., yes that is you Aussies and New Zealanders, can redirect those fingers you point in your own direction. The point being we need to align with one another, not point fingers.

Part of the reason for the crypto-colonization is the 3Tr. cubic meters of shale gas there. Syria, too, may have even more gas.

And it was designed to be – what was the point of investing the whole sovereignty of the member countries, without guaranty that no nation will be sacrificed so that „big“ others can continue to perform stupidity after stupidity (Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, Cyprus, etc). How smart one must be to comprehend that nobody strives to have nuclear weapons and after achieving that – lets bullies blackmail him? That is what's it all about Russia! Why be a nuclear super-power and behave like a helpless orphan? Russians are aware of how savage they look in the eyes of „sofisticated“ Europeans, but they are also aware of how savage Europeans in fact are. A facade is just that – a facade. Europeans allowed others (twice in their history) to make their home a war-arena, paying unimaginable price for nothing. It will not be different this time arround. European sickness is irrational arrogance. They still believe that everything coming from the east is primitive, bad and worthless and everything theirs is „divine“. THAT is plainly STUPID and there must be price to pay for such an attitude. We can read daily how Europeans are „dissatisfied“ with Turkey. Turks do not obey, they do not deliver. Deliver WHAT? What are they supposed to do, commit suicide in order to please some jerks in London and Brussels? Be good enough to be a soldier in the front-lines, but not good enough to be a citizen? That is what NATO is come to! I believe that the real masters of „the West“ will not hesitate to start a nuclear confrontation. Russians are aware of that. Then all bets are off!

Putin recently reminded the West that no one has ever conquered Russia, and no one ever will. I guess they thought he was bullshitting.

The comments at the original post are also worth a look (and it doesn't hurt that some of them are hilarious). Thu, 4 Dec 2014 09:34:34 +0000http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment924106788 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment924105228Very,very interesting.When my mind goes back to First World War,Bulgaria was the big bastard attacking Serbia from behind and killing retreating soldiers and civilians,but Russia "saved"them from being destroyed stopping Serbs to retaliate and punish them for their treachery.Same thing in second W.W.And now they just proven that they are incapable to be a sovereign country.Good on Russia.It's time to stand and not to be bullied.Show this western stooges that no matter what,Russia is great country with great leadership.Bravo. Thu, 4 Dec 2014 09:29:59 +0000http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment924105228 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment924088368An excellent article! The grand chess-master has dealt a mortal blow to the criminals controlling the EU-NATO-U.S. The pig-brained meddling psychopathic war mongers running England-EU-NATO and the U.S., while interfering in Russia's internal affairs, sovereignty and her energy resources, have had their tails snipped, (with great due respect to the noble animal, the pig). Putin’s cancellation of South Stream was a truly magical move, which will create very, very serious repercussions in the future for the energy needs and requirements of England and the rest of Europe. They have themselves, and only themselves, to blame. Treat Russia as an equal and with integrity, and Russia will respond positively – for all to benefit. The initial cause of that problem, however, can squarely be placed at the feet of David Cameron, England’s Prime Minister. Throughout his tenure he has created one debacle after another; his tail has been wagged by his controllers in the U.S. and the EU. He is a man devoid of morality, truth, ethics or integrity. If he had backbone and integrity he would have resisted all the negative directions being imposed upon Russia by his partners in the EU and America.

Indeed, will Turkey become Russia's best new friend? I wonder if the tensions in Ukraine and Syria will now get better or worse. It seems that the USA's strategy of divide and conquer in Europe may be working, with states like Bulgaria being increasingly dissatisfied with the EU potentially threatening its breakup and relations between the EU and Russia further strained along with the blocking of trade deals. Thu, 4 Dec 2014 08:14:52 +0000http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment924080102 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment924008521Now all attention will be focussed on Ukraine as the only route for Russian gas. It will heighten tensions in that country as a front line between EU and Russia as the stakes will be greater. Russians are reknowned as great chess players and even if the odds are stacked against them they will play with fierce intelligence to maximize their positional advantage. Now when Germany sides with US policy in Ukraine it will know that the long term consequences will be undermining its own energy security. I imagine that Russia as a recent planned economy could more easily cope with destabilization of economic and political relations than Germany could. We will see.

And if not the politicians then perhaps the citizens of Europe will understand and rise up against their American overlords. One thing not mentioned in the article is the strong possibility of Europe, except Germany, to build more nuclear reactors to fill the energy shortfall. Thu, 4 Dec 2014 04:24:11 +0000http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment923999454 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment923950238Its a shame the Europeans have resorted to bluff in their foreign policy. This emulates the US position that has been so destructive of western aims. We play poker whilst Asia plays chess. It does not work out for us and merely allows the hotheads in NATO to talk-up the prospects of WWIII. This article overlooks the effect Russia's policy should have on the green movement in Europe. The pipeline cancellation could well be the essential thing that obliges commercially-minded EU politicians to finally recognise their long-term interests are in energy self-sufficiency not hand-outs from Exxon etc. Thu, 4 Dec 2014 02:13:46 +0000http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment923950238 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment923936193The crass stupidity, the sheer idiocy of the EU, on top of their arrogance, is mind-boggling. The Europeans have shot themselves in the foot many a time, but this time they may have done a "bam" into their chest. Fifty years from now, Eurozone will be about prosperous as sub-Saharan Africa. Well done EU! Bravo NATO!!

Sanctions have hurt Russia to the tune of $100 billion. Russia and China working together may have a SURPRISE for the war mongers.

Thu, 4 Dec 2014 00:46:58 +0000http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment923918520 http://www.informationclearinghouse.info/article40381.htm#IDComment923918093Excellent article. I read somewhere the contract to deliver gas through the Ukraine to Europe will expire in two years. If this is true, I can bet on this Friday's paycheck, Russia has already taken this into account when the decision to cut the South Stream project was made. Putin plays a level of politics that keeps everyone guessing. I can not wait to see the next move.

Excellent article!!

Poor dumb bastards.
