I cringe, just a little bit, when I pay my taxes. Not because of the dollar values involved, but because I realize that a small portion of the proceeds goes towards waging warfare and killing thousands of people (100K-500K death in Iraq alone) in countries most Americans can’t even identify on a map. Today, the Obama administration, the industrial military complex and the warmongers throughout the US are hell bent on restarting the Cold War over an irrelevant nation 6,000 miles from an American shore. Here is the latest and what you need to know…..
- Do not hurt Russian people with sanctions: Jimmy Carter – What kind of society do we live in when such a peaceful statement by a former president is seen as “weak and crazy”?
- Ukraine’s leaders say have U.S. backing to take on ‘aggressors’ – Yep, let’s start another massive war against Russia over Ukraine as the US Government aligns itself with Neo-Nazis.
- Churkin: US behind Ukraine crisis after investing $5bn in ‘regime change’ – You have got to be a special kind of stupid not to understand that.
- US is ‘running show’ in Ukraine – Lavrov – Yep, everyone knows that, but let’s talk about freedom, democracy, rainbows and unicorns that Ukrainian people will get as the US gets involved.
- Sergey Lavrov: “If Russian Troops Or People Attacked, We’ll Retaliate”
While most Americans could care less, they should. Short-term, this conflict with Russia will have an impact on the US Economy and our capital markets. Long-term, we will face something so horrific that WWII will look like a picnic. I have already outlined the future in my comprehensive report Nuclear World War 3 Is Coming Soon.When, How & Why. Please note how accurately my “fundamental” predictions are lining up with what’s happening in the real world.

Paris (AFP) – Former US president Jimmy Carter said Tuesday the West should not impose sanctions that would hurt the Russian people over their leaders’ actions in Ukraine.
“So far, we have limited the sanctions to the leadership of Russia, and I think that is the proper approach,” the Nobel peace laureate told AFP on the sidelines of a discussion in Paris on climate change.
“I don’t think we would go so far as to impose sanctions that would hurt the Russian people.”
The statesman was taking part in a meeting with students as a member of The Elders group set up to promote human rights around the world.
US Vice President Joe Biden earlier warned Russia of “more costs” and “greater isolation” if it continued to “pull Ukraine apart”.
Carter, who is credited with brokering the 1978 Cape David peace accords between Egypt and Israel and establishing US diplomatic relations with China, said Russia’s takeover of Crimea had been “inevitable”.
“I don’t think anything could have been done by the US or European countries or anyone else to prevent that eventuality.
“Russia has always considered Crimea to be part of Russia.”
And he said: “my hope and my belief is that (Russian President Vladimir) Putin is not going to use military force” in eastern Ukraine.
“He is going to try to use other means to convince those people who live there that their best option is to cast their lot more towards Russia than towards the West. So I don’t think there is anything we can do that is going to deter Putin.”
Carter said Ukrainians must be allowed to decide their own fate.
And he said he hoped they would be supported by Russia from the East and the United States and Europe from the West so as to “not be torn between the two.”
The US and European Union have imposed targeted sanctions on members of Putin’s inner circle over the crisis and Russia’s annexation of Ukraine’s Crimea peninsula. They have threatened more wide-ranging measures as tensions over the former Soviet republic continue to spiral.
