WTF RLYThe lead writer of a controversial movie was found dead along with his wife and daughter in a Minnesota home Saturday afternoon. Officers went to the house Saturday after a neighbor called to report bodies inside. Three people were found dead and have been identified as screenwriter David Crowley, his wife, Komel, 28, and their 5-year-old daughter.
A statement from Apple Valley police Sunday morning said the case would be considered “an apparent murder-suicide” and the deaths would be investigated as suspicious. Continue reading “Wife, daughter and writer of controversial FEMA camp movie ‘Gray State’ dead in ‘murder-suicide’”

And of course Western media has no interest in reporting news the rebels are winning. However, ignoring the story does not make it go away. Major Rebel Advance On November 9, 2014, I posted Ukraine Split in Two; Expect Major Rebel Advance. That advance came later than I expected. But it is here in full force. Max Keiser provided this accurate headline two days ago: Ukraine Lurches to Full Scale War as Russia Drastically Reduces Gas Supply to EU. Reader Jacob Dreizin, a US citizen who speaks Russian and reads Ukrainian sent a few emails and videos recently worth posting. From Jacob ... Hello Mish Here's a video that shows a military "cemetery" in Dnepropetrovsk region, Ukraine. Note especially seconds 33 through 51. There are literally hundreds of empty holes in the ground here, waiting for bodies. I read in another source that these graves were dug very recently, probably right before this video was posted on January 8th. Looks like Kiev had been planning an offensive, presumably the one that was just broken up by the rebels in the last few days. I guess it's cheaper to have the graves dug all at once than to keep calling the backhoe crew over and over. Link if video does not play: Mass Graves in Ukraine. Dreizin writes ... The last few weeks have seen a significant escalation of fighting, which really boiled over in the last 5-6 days. I can't say for sure who "started" it, but it's clear from those hundreds of holes in the ground that the Ukrainians anticipated something. Donetsk Airport Battle is Over Dreizin also informs me that "The battle for the Donetsk airport is over. The rebels expelled Ukraine's most elite units from their last redoubts in the new terminal building." More reports coming up, none of them pretty for Kiev. Mainstream media ... silence. But some things are impossible to hide. Here's one of them. USD/UAH - US Dollar Ukrainian Hryvnia image: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-9jrliJYKX88/VLxqbsPpBeI/AAAAAAAAb_c/7VPW01soW3s/s400/UAH3.png Since November 30, 2013, the Hryvnia has collapsed from 8.24-per-US$ to 15.86-per-US$. That's a decline of 48 percent. Everything Ukraine imports costs nearly double what it did just over a year ago! Ukraine is bankrupt. It needs another bailout, but so far there are no offers. See Ukraine Needs Second Bailout, Currency Reserves Drop to Critical Level; Another IMF Visit; Where's the Love? In 5 Weeks, Ukraine Out of Money Please consider Foreign Currency Reserves in Ukraine Plunge 63 Percent in 2014 Ukraine's foreign currency reserves were down to just over $7.5 billion last year, the lowest level for 10 years and barely enough to cover five weeks of imports, pressured by external debt repayments including to the IMF and to Russia for gas. Repayment of $14 billion of external debt falling due in 2014 took its toll. War Marches On From a "grave" perspective, the war marches on, and will do so until the IMF steps in with another bailout or every penny is gone, whichever comes first. Philosophically speaking, the war is actually over. Ukraine is already split in two even if international recognition of that event comes years later. Addendum: The report from Dreizin that rebels took the airport was from Saturday. Reuters reported Sunday afternoon that Ukrainian troops retake most of Donetsk airport from rebels. Ukrainian troops recaptured almost all the territory of Donetsk airport in eastern Ukraine they had lost to separatists in recent weeks, as thousands gathered in Kiev for a state-sponsored peace march on Sunday. Military spokesman Andriy Lysenko said the army's operation had returned battle lines near the airport to the previous status quo and thus not violated the 12-point peace plan agreed with Russia and separatist leaders last September in Minsk. With its runways pitted and cratered, Donetsk airport has long since ceased to function. But its control tower and extensive outbuildings, battered by shelling and gunfire, have taken on symbolic value, with government soldiers and separatists hunting each other, often at close range, in a deadly cat-and-mouse game among the ruins. What we don't know is "what costs" and to which side. Also, I strongly suspect that this surge for Kiev to the previous status quo may mean Ukraine forces are really thin somewhere else of more strategic importance, such as the area around Mariupol.
