Overnight to January 1, Inter has broadcast a New Year programme of a Russian TV channel which featured artists who once voiced their public support to Moscow position regarding the crisis in Ukraine

KIEV, January 3. /TASS/. Ukrainian TV channel Inter cancelled broadcasting of several earlier announced Russian-made programmes due to calls to strip it of its licence made by several politicians, including Secretary of Ukrainian National Security Council Aleksander Turchinov, the TV channel said in a statement posted on its website.

Yes, Latvians economy was better, but not so many.. but, stop saying your MOTHER RUSSIA propaganda...
Ok, I can say the same about Belarusians, they want to leave they coutry. I have talked recently with many young and elder people. Some of them wanted to have their own business, but after some time they relized that it is too hard to make it on your own..bureaucracy and old soviet model doesn't allow to do that. I don't say that everything is good in Lithuania...Golden rulke: everywhere is good there are not us..

Ukraine’s Snowden: Whistleblower confirms MH17 was shot down by Ukraine
https://futuristrendcast.wordpress.com/2014/12/29/ukraines-snowden-whistleblower-confirms-mh17-was-shot-down-by-ukraine/


The above is a more detailed analysis of the events of the past days, that got completely ignored by the Western MSM.

Incidentally, Russian Investigative Committee offers to question Pilot Voloshin on lie detector, which should, if he is innocent, remove any suspicions off him. Kiev denies. Initially, Kiev also denied that Voloshin even existed, but had to revise their stance, when it was pointed out that Poroshenko gave him Medal For Courage “for heroism in defending Ukraine” two days after the shoot-down.

good documentary about this topic: 'MH17 Caught in the Crossfire' (maybe it was posted before)
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dYfGcnTtQbE

This reportage meanders between one-sidedness and deception.  Lets start with the claim that "a missile blew the plane from the sky".  Do missiles produce round aligned holes? https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BxBNE99IAAEYZAa.jpg:large There is a growing body of evidence pointing to the Malaysian Boeing having been ambushed by military planes.  Anyone who asks himself the question, cui bono, who benefited from this heinous attack, realizes it wasn't the east-Ukrainian rebels, nor Moscow.

And why didn't the interviewer go talk to the countless relatives of defenseless civilians massacred by the fascist Ukrainian paramilitary units flying the Wolsangel and other Nazi symbols?  Why only talk to this poker-face preacher who seems forgiving of the assassins of his brother and sons (killed only a couple of months before) but somehow still defends the war: "Everybody wants peace but they want it for free.  It doesn't work like that."

Cheap yankee faggot propoganda.Where is the good journalism??Everybody nows that Ukraine and CIA shoot this plane.Why does rebels have to shoot the plane?They not idiots.Make more problems for themselfs fuck you journeyman pictures.For cheap propoganda have some respect for the victims.

Ha, love how they had to show the missile coming from the ground, followed shortly after by 'Russian supplied BUK missiles'.. I have only watched the first few minutes and seen the title, but already I know where this propaganda piece will end up. If the 'documentary' ends up differently to how I imagine it going, I will edit this comment to reflect that.  Who is funding

The separatists and Putin are responding to the violation of "international norms" by the US, EU and their Ukrainian allies who started an insurrection by rock and firebomb throwing ultra nationalists which overthrew a democratically- elected president. This is totally overlooked by the academics and generals who are featured in this video. And the reason for destroying Ukrainian democracy by the western standard bearers of democracy? Because Yanukovich dared to sign a trade deal with Russia rather that the EU.  It's amazing how lacking in self-awareness and honesty these champions of "civilization" are. If we let these people go on leading the West, WWIII is a serious possibility.  

russians killing russians =/

Alexander Bednov "Batman" was killed in an ambush by his own people.. some kind of power struggle?

Something very bad is going on here. Not good for novorussia.

Does anyone have more info.

"Latvia will join the euro on 1 January but nearly 60 percent of Latvians oppose the single currency....Latvians have endured steep wage cuts, rather than Lat devaluation, as the government sought to get the country out of economic crisis while keeping on track to join the euro," it said..

Latvians were not allowed a referendum on joining the euro, since leading politicians were afraid the public would reject it. There is much public anger at what is going on (see picture of European flag being burned in protest at eurozone membership at the top of this report).

It is a matter of public record that the European Union has ignored unfavourable results in referendums on major European issues including in France and the Netherlands.

"Latvia will join the euro on 1 January but nearly 60 percent of Latvians oppose the single currency"
But I bet that's not how the BBC will be reporting things on 1 January. As I write this there is, no doubt, a crew of BBC staff, well into double figures, checking-in to a 5 star hotel in Riga ready to report with delight that another country has joined the euro.
Joyful Latvians will be interviewed on the streets about how much better life in Latvia will become now they have the euro and how this is a sign that Latvia is now 'free' again and how it has finally broken free from the Soviet Union [the irony of swapping Soviet Union rule for European Union rule will be lost on most of them].
Of course, I could be wrong and the BBC may lead on the headline that "the Latvian government has gone against the wishes of the Latvian people and has joined the euro without any democratic support for the change whatsoever" - or, then again, pigs might fly out of my ar**.

Interviewed Viktor Yanukovych 4 hours in Moscow for new English language documentary produced by Ukrainians. He was the legitimate President of Ukraine until he suddenly wasn’t on February 22 of this year. Details to follow in the documentary, but it seems clear that the so-called ‘shooters’ who killed 14 police men, wounded some 85, and killed 45 protesting civilians, were outside third party agitators. Many witnesses, including Yanukovych and police officials, believe these foreign elements were introduced by pro-Western factions-- with CIA fingerprints on it.

‘Nightingale’ in Ukraine

For those of you angry with my analysis of Ukraine yesterday, please try to understand the bigger picture I’m offering. I have no brief for Viktor Yanukovych, he may well be the most corrupt president Ukraine’s ever had. Ukraine has a dramatic history of corruption. That is not my point. How Yanukovych was removed is -- and although many (perhaps a majority) of Ukrainian people wanted him out, there is ample evidence of pro-Western, third party interference, beginning with Victoria Nuland, John McCain, USAID, National Endowment for Democracy (who apparently organize very well on Facebook and Twitter), etc. Why for instance are so many policemen dead and wounded, and yet no one has investigated this in the new government?

The other point to consider in the big picture is US involvement with Ukraine going back to 1949, when the CIA and strongly anti-Soviet Defense Secretary James Forrestal created a guerrilla army codenamed ‘Nightingale,’ made up of ultra-nationalist Ukrainians. The Nazis originally set up the prototype of this militia up in 1941 to wreak havoc in famine-racked regions where Soviet control was loose, carrying out the murder of 1000s of Jews, Soviets, and Poles who opposed a separate Ukrainian state.

Beginning in 1949, for 5 years the CIA parachuted Ukrainian infiltrators into the region. To the Soviets it was as if the US were infiltrating guerrillas into Canada or Mexico.

The big picture is the US has never given up on using Ukraine as a launching pad to the underbelly of the Soviet Union, now a reduced Russia. This Cold War 2.0 policy continues in a most deadly fashion, and whether they know it or not, the Ukrainian civilian population in the middle has suffered greatly from this ideological crusade.

Scared, are you fucking joking? they have killed Russian Citizens, and they live next to RUSSIA, lol. They are insane... simply.

But about censorships, I love it. And you know why dear SO, because SOF can come, blast what ever, who ever, in the most brutal and martial way, and no fuckers in the country will know about it. It's called freedom to operate Darkside... and yes it's a frightening moment for everyone in place where such "black zone" become "hot". Hot and darkness... a preview of hell? Sooner or later the "conned" People will meet a thing, more deep, stable, secure and indestructible than anything they ever seen, it's called reality... And it's Wall is. If you want to cross it there is no other path, but death. hard I told you.

Lithuania has celebrated the New Year by joining the eurozone. The decision is country’s bid to boost stability despite inflation fears and euro zone debt troubles. However, according to a November poll about 40 percent of the population opposed the move.

Lithuanian Prime Minister Algirdas Butkevicius was withdrew his first 10 euro from Vilnius cash machine right after midnight January 1. The exchange rate is now set at one euro for 3.45 litas, the country’s old currency. Both litas and euros will circulate in the country till June.

And so another piece in the 100-year-old German plan for 'Mitteleuropa' falls into place as Lithuania joins the Friedrich Naumann-inspired, German-dominated currency union designed to secure German domination of continental Europe "for all time". In September 1914 at the outbreak of WWI, the Kaiser's Chancellor, Theobald von Bethmann-Hollweg wrote: “Russia must be thrust back as far as possible from Germany's eastern frontier and her domination over non-Russian vassal peoples broken....We must create a central European economic association through common customs treaties to include France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Austria-Hungary, Poland and perhaps Italy, Sweden and Norway.... all its members will be formally equal but in practice will be under German leadership.....” Eastwards expansion and a German-dominated customs union and single currency area has been a stated German foreign policy aim for at least 100 years. It was put on ice by the Cold War. Now, with that conflict over and Germany re-unified, the policy is once more in the process of being realised - it's just that this time it suits the US to support it as they greatly fear a resurgent Russia capable of putting its own national interests before those of the globalised, corporatist elite.

In 2013 I started FuturisTrendcast Blog with the intention of doing just that – sharing my wisdom, knowledge and predictions, opening people’s eyes, warning of dangers and helping them see the future. However, my non-confrontational nature didn’t allow me to go all out at first, and the blog sat basically idle for several months. By February 2014, the blog had 2,000 visitors and 10 subscribers, until… Ukraine happened and I understood, like Tolstoy once said, that I ‘cannot keep silent’ any more. At that point, fear became unimportant as I understood that something else, namely ‘the truth,’ was much more important than fear.

I watched with incredulity the craze happening on Kiev maidan, provoked deliberately to coincide with the time when Russia was preparing to host the Sochi Olympics, and it was clear to me that the West made sure Russia couldn’t interfere in Ukraine on any level for fear of the Olympics boycott. The ukro-nazi coup was timed and pushed through during Sochi Olympics for the same reason. Meanwhile, politicians from US, UK, Poland, Brussels and other EU countries flocked to Kiev maidan, where they called for violent overturn of Yanukovich and promoted hatred against Russia. People who disagreed in Kiev and western Ukraine were beaten, driven out of the country and killed. Russian language was initially banned and people speaking it prosecuted and intimidated in the country where the majority used to speak it every day. Openly fascist parties started dictating Ukraine’s policies and direct CIA assets usurped power in Kiev. In two or three short months Ukraine turned from a relatively normal place into a cesspool of the darkest and most violent kind. At the same time, the vilification of Russia and character assassination of the Russian leader reached the point of no return. Seeing all this I did what I do best: started writing to tell the truth and open people’s eyes.

FuturisTrendcast visitation and subscription exploded. Turned out, people all over the world craved knowledge and truth. Less than a year later, FuturisTrendcast boasts nearly 250,000 visitors and thousands of subscribers.

I am fairly certain her was being sarcastic. He was saying that other governmnets have done much worse then the US did by nuking Japan in WW2.

Using nuclear bombs was a necessary evil because it saved a likely net amount of lives as what would have had to have happened if the US had to invade Japan instead of them surrendering

The overall amount of money paid by Yves Rocher to the Navalny brothers exceeded 55 million rubles (over $1.6 million at the time) and the pocketed margin was over 20 million rubles ($600,000), according to the company’s claim. Additionally, the brothers were accused of laundering the money with the help of a different family enterprise.

Aleksey Navalny was charged with fraud and money laundering of 30 million rubles ($518,000) and has been under house arrest since February.

This Navalny is a con artist riding the propaganda waves. So this time he cheated Yves Rocher out of 500k bucks. He has been convicted before, now he got 3 1/2 years - fair enough, he'll be out after 2. But right now the "liberalist" trolls are happily sh***ing on this stream, hoping to make it political. In THE WEST's media, they would be radically censored. Obviously, Russian media are comparatively liberal and uncensored, and as obviously, Western agencies pay good money to the Russian "opposition". Watching this stream proves it well enough. Thanks for the impression, it really changed my mind about what's going on!

The interesting thing is that he probably really was stealing money from Yves Rocher stores. This is a private company, with their own records to show in court, and as far as I can make out: A non political entity. But is it surprising a member of Russia's opposition is engaged in stealing, and thinks himself above the law (by virtue of being able to call arrest "politically motivated") when so many opponents of Putin have an unfortunate habit of being the money servants of western agencies?

Experts fear the sharp switch from Russian-to US-produced nuclear fuel as it could pose a threat to the safety of Ukrainian nuclear power plants, which were built in the Soviet Union era

Well alot of people have died under the banner of atheist communism as well, and I speak of that as an atheist.

Its kinda like when you hear people say "God bless America", it makes me laugh every time.
IF there were a god, im pretty sure Merica would be one of the last countries blessed.
