How Russia Is About to Dramatically Change the World
ROBERT MORLEY | January 5, 2010 | From theTrumpet.com

Russia Was Better Prepared for Collapse than the U.S.
Dmitry Orlov Energy Bulletin January 16, 2008
Originally published: December 4, 2006
Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. I am not an expert or a scholar or an activist. I am more of an eyewitness. I watched the Soviet Union collapse, and I have tried to put my observations into a concise message. I will leave it up to you to decide just how urgent a message it is.
My talk tonight is about the lack of collapse-preparedness here in (...)

Sarah Palin is not opposed to going to war with Russia
By Mary MacElveen
Like Ed Koch who endorsed Barack Obama citing of Sarah Palin, “She scares me”, I would have to side with the former mayor. In reading where Palin stated in her interview with ABC’s Charlie Gibson she is open to the idea of a war with Russia, it does create a sense of terror within me.
While I did not watch the interview, this was enough for me and reaffirmed my support for Senator Obama and Senator (...)

Moscow Gay Pride to go on despite ban
By :
Moscow - Sunday May 27, 2007
Russian gay activists vowed yesterday to hold a demonstration in Moscow despite a ban, a year after a similar attempt led to arrests by police, attacks by right-wing nationalists and verbal abuse by pensioners.
The Sunday demonstration is to mark the 14th anniversary of Russia’s decriminalisation of homosexuality. But despite that move, intolerance of homosexuality remains high in Russia; it is denounced by the dominant Russian Orthodox Church and President Vladimir Putin in his (...)

Russians out of Iran nuke site
Associated Press – March 21, 2007
Russia is pulling out its experts from the Iranian nuclear reactor site they were helping build, U.S. and European officials said Tuesday. The move reflected a growing rift between Iran and Russia that could lead to harsher U.N. sanctions on the Islamic republic for its refusal to stop uranium enrichment.
The representatives — a European diplomat and a U.S. official — said a large number of Russian (...)

February 16, 2007 By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers
In reviewing reports from our Kremlin sources today I could not help but call to mind the words of the great German scientist Albert Einstein, and who when asked what kind of weapons World War III would be fought with, Einstein responded, “I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.”
These thoughts of mine were due to the (...)

OIL! Addicts Attend G-8 Summit - The G8’s Energy Insecurity
By :
BenAMarine - Tuesday July 18, 2006
The struggle to separate oil and state needs to be fought at home and at key international events like the G-8 Summit that took place this past weekend in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. When the G-8 met in Scotland last year, global poverty and climate change headlined the agenda. This past weekend in Russia, “Energy Security” was a key issue, but last year’s priorities seemed to be pushed aside.
Instead, the G-8 has absurdly defined energy security as the promotion and (...)

"However, it is our impression that aside from seeking to return the abducted soldiers, Israel is pursuing wider goals," the Russian president told a midnight (...)

You will be happy to learn that the former head of the KGB (the secret police of the former Soviet Union), General Yevgeni Primakov, has been hired as a consultant by the US Department of Homeland Security. Do you think he will share his expertise in "security" to prepare US citizens for domestic internal passports under the pretense of fighting the never-ending "War on Terrorism"?

Today, Russian Defence Minister Sergei Ivanov spoke out against the U.S. Missile Defence System, because it would set a dangerous precedent. Consider the reasons why Russian Defence Minister Sergei Ivanov was against the U.S. Missile Defence System. What were the guarantees that they would not be used by a rogue government in the U.S. to subjugate peaceful countries? If the U.S. has already voided international covenants like the United Nations Charter, the (...)

Russia would consider using force if necessary to respond if the US put a combat weapon into space, according to a senior Russian official.
According to a New York Times report yesterday, the Bush administration was moving towards implementing a new space policy that would move the US closer to placing offensive and defensive weapons in space. Russia, China and many US allies oppose any weaponisation of space, partly out of concerns that it would lead to an extremely expensive post-cold (...)

Moscow. Thousands of Russian pensioners staged protests across the country yesterday against the abolition of generous Soviet-era social benefits.
Though the demonstrations were peaceful, analysts said the protests were the most serious in Russia since 1998, when disgruntled coal miners blocked railway tracks in protest at unpaid wages.
Yesterday was the third consecutive day of demonstrations, which have stretched from Russia’s Far East to Moscow itself and at (...)
