Luhansk effectively falls to Russia
The Ukrainian army has lost the battle for the airport of Luhansk. Ceasefire talks in Ukraine collapsed ending hours after Kiev was compelled to order its army to withdraw from a key eastern airport in Luhansk after coming under a serious assault from separatists fighters reportedly backed by a Russian Panzerbatallion that included an army tank column. Luhansk is the furthest province of Ukraine and it appears that the invasion has begun. It will be spearheaded by the separatists maintain that it is not a direct Russian invasion. The fall of Ukraine is not out of the question. However, this will be the flash-point for all hostilities ahead.
War Starting Now?
A number of people have written noting the report by Reuters that Russian tanks flattened a town in Eastern Ukraine and how that has lined up with our warnings that conflict will start to rise in September and then we should see more of an issue in November. Even the Ferguson issue is distinguished from the 1960s by the militaristic response that has captured the attention of worldwide media and international civil rights groups. The 1960s riots were confined to race and normal police responses. Today, the police respond as military divisions – starkly different from the 1960s.
We expect to see an escalation in conflicts in Ukraine and this will be the international flash point. People do not appreciate Ukrainian history. Stalin executed more Ukrainians than Hitler killed Jews. This is the deep-seated fear of Russia that is the great untold story. Nevertheless, Russia views Ukraine as its property and always has. Nevertheless, the importance of Ukraine is that their population is about 45 million. Take down Ukraine, and the other former Soviet possessions and tiny. Ukraine gave back all its nuclear weapons at the request of the USA. They were the THIRD LARGEST nuclear power in the world. The people now feel like pawns between the US and Russia. Beware November.
Global Warming Being Exposed as a Fraud
Global Warming seems to be in the same category with gold in the hands of the promoters – bedtime stories for children. Seven years ago former US Vice-President Al Gore’s warned everyone that the Arctic ice would be gone by now. Obama even wanted a commission to see if we could build a machine to reverse what does not exist. Talk about a typical government job. Indeed, these people build bridges when there is not even a river or gully to cross.
The British press seem to be more honest than American, especially after Snowden. In fact, The British Daily Mail is reporting that not only was this forecast of Al Gore dead WRONG, the ice cap has actually expanded for a second year in row covering 1.7 million square kilometres MORE than 2 years ago and it is also thicker!
The satellite images were taken from University of Illinois’s Cryosphere project that shows the ice has become even more concentrated. Yet they want to regulate cow farting. Honestly, if politicians actually believe this nonsense is debatable. Whatever the issue seems to be will only be a concern if there is more tax revenue to be justified. They will not outlaw smoking because they get tax revenues yet under the same theory they should ban it if this was about public concern.
Global Warming has been a fantastic excuse to raise taxes and now regulate cow farting in Europe. How about eliminating all the hot air created by worthless government programs? If we eliminated career politicians and voted from our laptops on every initiative, think of all the limousines that would not be driving them around and special plane flights for their vacations.
