MOSCOW (AP) — Russian President Vladimir Putin lashed out Monday against those who he said were exploiting the downing of a passenger jet in eastern Ukraine for “mercenary objectives.”

Putin said Russia was doing everything possible to allow a team of experts from the International Civil Aviation Organization, a U.N. agency, to investigate the scene. He also again criticized the Ukraine authorities in Kiev for reigniting the fighting with the pro-Russian rebels who control the crash site.   Continue reading “Putin blames others for exploiting Ukraine crash”

WASHINGTON (AP) — Video of a rocket launcher, one surface-to-air missile missing, leaving the likely launch site. Imagery showing the firing. Calls claiming credit for the strike. Recordings said to reveal a cover-up at the crash site.

“A buildup of extraordinary circumstantial evidence … it’s powerful here,” said Secretary of State John Kerry, a former prosecutor, and it holds Russian-supported rebels in eastern Ukraine responsible for shooting down Malaysia Airlines Flight 17, with the Kremlin complicit in the deaths of nearly 300 passengers and crew members.   Continue reading “US working on case against Russia on downed plane”

Here is the solution to all of the illegal immigrants coming across our borders.

First we should use all means necessary to apprehend each and every immigrant residing in our nation illegally.

Upon apprehension, they should be detained, processed, housed, clothed, fed, and given basic healthcare, if needed. They should at all times be treated with compassion, dignity and respect, as long as they do not present any danger to their caregivers.   Continue reading “Immigration Problem Solved”

I had a couple really good questions this past weekend about looking for indicators signaling a SHTF situation. How can we tell an emergency event is going to happen before it happens?  What can we look for?  Those are very good questions but they’re not easily answered.  We’ll work on breaking it down here.  I want each of you to have a way forward to start developing your own Early Warning Indicators (EWI) for whatever threats you may be expecting.   Continue reading “Identifying SHTF Indicators”

Cases of the chikungunya virus are appearing in the United States at a level that is far higher than anything health officials have seen in recent years, and now there are two confirmed cases of people that have not even traveled out of the country getting the virus.  That means that the chikungunya virus is starting to spread in America, and once it starts spreading it is really hard to stop.  Instead of spreading human to human, this virus actually spreads “person-to–mosquito-to-person”.  If you live in an area of the country where there are a lot of mosquitos, you should pay close attention to this article.  You do not want to get the chikungunya virus.  According to Slate, the name of this virus “comes from a Makonde word meaning ‘that which bends up,’ referring to the contortions sufferers put themselves through due to intense joint pain.”  That does not sound fun at all.  Continue reading “Possible Epidemic? The Chikungunya Virus Is Starting To Spread In America”

SHTF Plan – by Mac Slavo

The border is completely safe. So say President Barack Obama, Representative Nancy Pelosi, Senator Harry Reid and others who support the wave of illegal immigrants entering the United States.

A new report from the southern border, however, suggests otherwise.

Shots rang out Friday night in Rincon Peninsula, Texas, forcing U.S. border patrol agents to take cover. The shots originated from south of the Rio Grande River and according to Border Patrol sources they came from a high-powered .50 caliber rifle.   Continue reading “Report: Mexican Drug Cartels Lay Down High Powered Suppressing Fire For Crossing Immigrants”

US/EU Misadventure In The Ukraine Has Triggered Economic/Financial Word War III

With the CIA-coordinated coup d’état executed in Kiev came the very real prospect of a World War III. However, the much greater war is not being waged on the urban battlefields of Eastern Ukraine or on the Russian border; rather, it’s being prosecuted in various national economies and by the world’s largest central and commercial banks, transnational corporations and market exchanges.  What is at stake is the very future and viability of the US Petrodollar as the reserve currency of the planet.   Continue reading “US Dollar Under Grave Threat: Russia Plans Global Retaliation For Ukraine”

To examine the world today, politically and socially, is complex task. There are indeed so many complexities to the postmodern world that it is as if the more you learn, the less sure you become.
