Protests Rage In Taiwan Over China Trade Deal

With the taste of the Libyan tragedy, the Syrian destabilization, and the Ukrainian coup still lingering in the mouths of the citizens of those nations, the unfortunate fruits of those labors are now clearly visible in the enormous death toll, savagery, and austerity that is currently engulfing the victim countries.

Those destabilization campaigns, all initiated with violence from the beginning, yet portrayed as “peaceful democracy-loving protesters” by the Western media, were paraded in front of millions of American television screens night after night for the purpose of propagandizing a frighteningly gullible public at home who themselves have a natural inclination toward supporting the underdog in any given fight (unless that underdog is the overt target of the United States).

Still, while these protests were ever-present on American television screens, there was a stunning lack of air time devoted to the protests taking place in Thailand, a rare example of organic mass mobilization of everyday people disgusted with the incompetence and oppression of their ruling regime.

As is the case in Thailand, there remains a stunning lack of 24-hour coverage of the protests taking place in Taiwan, where a movement of activists, mainly young people, have taken to the streets in protest of a new trade agreement being negotiated between Taiwan and China.

The new agreement is centered around the greater integration of the economies of two states that have been antagonistic towards one another to say the least for many years. The deal, which was reached last June, focuses on “removing barriers to cross-strait trade in services such as banking, e-commerce and health care.” The protesters, along with some opposition parties, claim that the trade deal will “lead to an influx of Chinese businesses that will overwhelm Taiwanese competitors, threaten basic freedoms in areas such as publishing, and employ cheap mainland labour rather than Taiwanese.”

The protesters also accuse Taiwanese President Ma Ying-Jeou of being overly secretive about the trade negotiations.

Turkey Plans False Flag Against Syria; Blocks Youtube, Twitter

In what appears to be the revelation of yet another attempt to instigate foreign military action on Syrian soil, a video posted to Youtube from an anonymous account allegedly provides the audio of Turkish intelligence Chief Hakan Fidan, Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu, and Deputy Chief of Military Staff Yasar Guler as well as other top Turkish officials discussing a possible attack on Syria.

The operation, if implemented, would have been publicly predicated on the basis of “securing the tomb of Suleyman Shah,” the grandfather of the founder of the Ottoman empire. As Reuters reports, “Ankara regards the tomb as sovereign Turkish territory under a treaty signed with France in 1921, when Syria was under French rule. About two dozen Turkish special forces soldiers permanently guard it.”

As a result, Turkish authorities have moved to block access to Youtube, describing the recording as “villainous,” and a “wretched attack” on national security. This reaction has lent even more credence to the veracity of the recordings.

Two weeks ago, Turkey publicly threatened to respond to any attack on the tomb after a confrontation between fanatical death squads ISIL and other related “rebel” groups in the area.

However, it appears that the controversy over the danger posed to Suleyman’s tomb is nothing more than a weak excuse for overt military incursion into Syria. The idea is that Turkey will be able to claim that it is taking action against “Al-Qaeda” in order to protect Turkish territory, a justification that will be readily accepted by Western audiences.

It is important to point out that the Turkish plan is actually a false flag attack, since Turkey itself has been responsible for the facilitation, direction, and organization of many of the death squads operating in Syria. Indeed, the Turkey-Syria border is so wide open to Western-backed death squads that Turkish border stations might consider installing “death squad crossing” signs to warn other travelers.

The History and Science of Color Revolutions, Part 2

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

In my previous article dealing with destabilization mechanisms and color revolutions entitled “The History and Science of Color Revolutions, Part 1,” I briefly discussed the history of the theory behind such mass movements and the related mobilizations of “swarming adolescents” as well as the purposes for which color revolutions are generally deployed.

Whenever one discusses color revolutions, however, it is important to understand that this tactic is not merely a recent invention on the part of the ruling elite. In fact, this particular method of destabilization has quite a long history, having been perfected in the late 1960s and refined into an art form as time has progressed.

It is also extremely important to understand how color revolutions work, as well as how these methods are successfully deployed. Such an understanding is particularly relevant if one wishes to combat or, at the very least, avoid the tragic results of color revolutions in their own country or the propaganda narrative surrounding those revolutions in another part of the world.

Because color revolutions, destabilizations, and coups require much more than propaganda inside or outside the country, it is necessary to organize, train, indoctrinate, and mobilize with “boots on the ground” inside the target nation. Since the movement will not be an organic one, the “swarming adolescents” must be organized by the agents directing the destabilization.

With this in mind, Jonathan Mowat’s excellent article, “The New Gladio In Action: ‘Swarming Adolescents,’” which I cited at length in my last article, goes into the recent history of color revolution tactics along with a brief discussion regarding the history of some of its individual and organizational players, most notably Gene Sharp, Bob Helvey, and The Albert Einstein Institution.

New Legislation Could Force Feds To Crack Down on Legal Marijuana

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

On March 14, 2014, Eric Dolan of Raw Story reported that many Republicans are now backing a bill which would allow “Congress to sue the president for failing to faithfully execute laws.” The law, entitled the “Enforce The Law Act,” has already been approved by the House and is now seeing some support in the U.S. Senate, although it is unlikely that the bill will make it past the Democrats.

Of the Senators supporting the bill, Rand Paul is a notable proponent.

Indeed, Paul recently stated that Obama seems to be “writing his own laws whenever he feels like it.”

Paul also stated that “He also does need to enforce the law. We write laws and he is just deciding willy-nilly if he likes it he enforces it, if he doesn’t, he won’t enforce it, and we really think he needs to be chastened, rebuked, and told that he needs to obey the constitution.”

Yet, ironically, Paul and other Republicans are now supporting a bill that could very well create a nightmare if it is passed and enforced. While Paul and his ilk are attempting to portray the bill as a method to prevent regulatory authorities from overstepping their bounds, health care laws creating undue burdens on citizens, or unchecked illegal immigration, the reality is that the bill will likely cause more trouble than it will solve.

More 'Mysterious Snipers' Responsible For Latest Ukraine Escalation?

Tensions are rising yet again in Crimea as the first Ukrainian military death has taken place on the Peninsula since the crisis began.

As the BBC reports:

An eyewitness told the BBC that armed men arrived in two unmarked vehicles, storming the base in Simferopol and firing automatic weapons. 

The Ukrainian government said a junior officer who was on duty in a park inside the base had been killed and another officer injured. A third serviceman had leg and head injuries after being beaten with iron bars, it said. 

The government said the commander of the unit was captured by men wearing Russian uniforms. 

Defence ministry spokesman Vladislav Seleznyov told Reuters the attack was by "unknown forces, fully equipped and their faces covered".  

The Ukrainians had had their IDs, weapons and money confiscated, he said.

A slightly different description of the assailants comes from the Independent, which describes them as being “dressed in Russian camouflage kits and balaclavas.” This description, of course, is not exactly the same as Russian uniforms.

In addition, The Independent also acknowledges that “there were indications that it was the separatist Crimean government’s recently created 'Self Defence Forces' who had actually carried out the fatal attack.”

The manner in which the assailants were dressed as well as the fact that the vehicle they arrived in was unmarked, seems to suggest a force other than Russian soldiers to blame for the incident. Russian military troops and their vehicles tend to be clearly marked as is the case with most military forces.

US Closes Syrian Embassy; Death Squad Support Continues

Syrian Embassy, D.C. - Wikipedia

Activist Post

In yet another low reached by the American government, the Obama administration on Tuesday ordered the suspension of the Syrian government’s diplomatic and consular missions in the United States. The U.S.is now requiring all personnel who are not legal U.S. residents to leave the country.

Essentially, the order closes the Syrian embassy in Washington, D.C. as well as its honorary consulates in Troy, Michigan and Houston, Texas.

The decision is alleged to have come as a response to the Assad government’s recent announcement that it will cease consular service for Syrians who reside in the United States.

U.S. Special Envoy To Syria, Daniel Rubenstein, stated, “We have determined it is unacceptable for individuals appointed by that regime to conduct diplomatic or consular operations in the United States.”

Rubenstein continued by stating that the United States would continue to support the genocidal “rebels” and death squads currently terrorizing the nation when he said that "The United States will continue to assist those seeking change in Syria, to help end the slaughter, and to resolve the crisis through negotiations — for the benefit of the Syrian people."

This decision comes fresh on the heels of the recent insult of limiting the movement of the Syrian envoy to the United Nations, Bashar Al-Jaafari, to the distance of 25 miles within New York City.

IMF Plans Massive Austerity for Ukraine According to Crimea Leaders

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

If statements made by Deputy Prime Minister of Crimea, Olga Kovitidi, are to be taken as truth, the future of Ukrainians living under the yoke of Fascists, the European Union, and the IMF will be yet another example of the imposition of extreme austerity measures and national impoverishment that is the fruit of alignment with those institutions.

The Western-backed coup government in Kiev, of course, has already gone begging to the IMF for financial help after it turned its back on a much better loan offered by Russia. The conditions of the IMF loans are, as always, extreme levels of austerity measures and privatization of public services and assets.

Kovitidi, however, provides much more specific information regarding the nature of the IMF conditionalities.

The Deputy Prime Minister claims that the tentative IMF agreement involves handing over the entire country’s gas pipeline for free to the American company Chevron. She also claims that the owners of the Mariupol, Zaporizhzhya, and Dnipropetrovsk steel mills will be required to give up 50% of the ownership stakes to German company Ruhr.

The Finnish subsidiary of Ruhr, according to Kovitidi, will inherit the Donbass coal industry.

Kovitidi also stated that Crimean leaders have discovered that Kiev has promised Western financial interests that it will impose “unpopular measures in order to fill gaps in the Ukrainian budget.” One of these unpopular measures will be the rollback of mechanisms functioning as gas subsidies, forcing the prices of gas for municipal companies to increase by 50% and double for private companies.

Kovitidi also said that “Electricity tariffs will be raised by 40%, housing utility tariffs will be raised, too, gasoline excises will go up 60% and transportation tariffs 50%, while state support for childbirth will be cancelled, the free distribution of textbooks will be annulled at schools and the VAT relief will be scrapped in rural regions.”

Ukraine False Flag Emails: Real or Fake?

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

In another example of how difficult it is now becoming to determine the authenticity of “leaked” information, individuals claiming to be associated with the hacking group Anonymous are claiming that they have uncovered an email that shows communication between U.S. Army Attaché Assistant in Kiev, Jason Gresh, and Igor Protsyk, a high ranking official from the Ukranian General Staff. These individuals claim the emails show that there are plans to conduct a number of attacks on Ukrainian military bases in order to destabilize the situation on the ground inside the country.

If accurate, one such plan involves “causing problems to the transport hubs in the south-east of Ukraine in order to frame-up the neighbor” a quote allegedly attributed to Gresh. The emails allegedly involve Gresh stating that such an attack will “create favorable conditions for the Pentagon to act.”

The unconfirmed group also claims that Protsyk writes to an individual identified as Vasil in another communication where he tells the man to arrange an attack on a Ukrainian Air Force Base housing the 25 Aviation Brigade in Melitopol.

Vasil is apparently responsible for arranging the nuts and bolts of the attack, gathering gunmen, and providing them with maps and locations of sites to be attacked, according to the group and the emails it claims to have hacked.

While some chatter has taken place across the Internet in regards to this story, it has not yet been confirmed by this writer, Activist Post, or, to my knowledge, any other media organization as legitimate.

Unfortunately, with leaks of this nature, it is virtually impossible to confirm the veracity of the claims made therein, particularly within a short timeframe.

It should be noted that, although there is a LinkedIn profile page of a Jason Gresh listing employment as the U.S. Military Attaché to the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine, Gresh is not listed on the U.S. Embassy website, nor is the position. However, Gresh did in fact work for the U.S Embassy in 2008 and in 2013.

Dashcam Video Sheds Light on Cop Shooting 70-Year-Old Disabled Man

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

Finally, police dashcam video has been released in the shooting of a Lincolnton, North Carolina man in York County, South Carolina. The victim of the all-too-typical police shooting was traveling back home to North Carolina via the South Carolina route, when he was pulled over by fearful York County Sheriff’s Department Deputy Terrence Knox for an expired license plate.

The victim, 70-year-old Bobby Canipe, who is handicapped, was shot by Deputy Knox when he got out of the vehicle and reached into the back of his truck for his cane, which is when Deputy Knox’s uncontrollable fear took over and the Deputy fired not one but several shots at Canipe, hitting him once.

Deputy Knox has since been placed on paid vacation, also known as paid leave, while the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division “investigates” the incident and does whatever it can to blame the victim and eliminate any legitimacy to claims of wrongdoing on the part of the fearless deputy.

Trent Faris, official spokesman of the York County Sheriff’s Office stated that the shooting was unfortunate but “appeared to be appropriate because Knox felt an imminent threat to his life,” according to the Associated Press.

Despite the fact that Canipe was 70 years old, disabled, and was pulled over for a minor (read “ridiculous”) infraction to begin with, many may have wondered if the video would show any remote form of a possible reason to believe that Deputy Knox was justified in opening fire on him.

 

Thankfully, the video clears this question up quite well.

The Story The Mainstream Media Refuses To Tell You About Syria.

Brandon Turbeville
The Anti Media
March 12, 2014

Video has surfaced detailing the execution of Syrian men, women, and children by the same rebel forces that Secretary Of State John Kerry was so eager to aid last summer.

In yet one more incident showing the foreign makeup of the so-called Syrian “rebellion,” a video showing “rebels” speaking in what sounds very much like Russian/Chechen dialect during the course of committing another in a long line of atrocities has surfaced.[1]

Although informed researchers have known since the beginning of the conflict that outsiders had been shipped in to Syria to engage in war against the Syrian government, it is not the language of nationalities of the men that is so shocking.

The video shows the execution of men, women, and children – both elderly and as young as ten – for the crimes of “aiding Kufir in the fight against Islam.”

According to the killer, such is the “is destiny of everyone who helps kufir to fight against islam.” Kufir can be roughly translated to mean “infidel” or “unbeliever.”

After executing their victims, the killers can be seen strutting around the room with smiles on their faces.

Before the executions took place, a man can be heard begging for the life of his ten year old son.

Ruling Class Continues to Play Both Sides of Political Conflicts

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

By now, it should be clear to all informed observers that there are only two options regarding the true motivation behind the decisions being taken by the American ruling class, particularly in terms of foreign policy – a truly hidden agenda aimed at moving geopolitical chess pieces into place for the purposes of initiating a world conflict and the establishment of a hegemonic world order or, simply put, absolute mental insanity.

From seemingly irrational decisions such as the support of Fascism in Ukraine to the support of Al-Qaeda and other Muslim Fundamentalist terrorists in Syria, the apparent (at least at first glance) bungling of good relations with Egypt, and the destruction of Libya, the U.S. foreign policy is either bent on the arrangement of battle lines between thermonuclear powers, or it is simply incapable of making rational decisions to avoid such a confrontation.

Personally, I tend to believe the former.

While it is true that insanity does not preclude the presence of intelligence, even high intelligence, it is also true that the ruling class in the United States and the rest of the world, regardless of seemingly insane and self-destructive decisions, has also managed to maintain a firm grip on its power. Thus, the extent to which they which the ruling class is willing to diminish their power on the basis of nationalism or nationally-based political decisions, is virtually nonexistent.

Clearly, those afflicted with various forms of psychopathy will tend to vie for power and fight amongst one another on occasion. However, such internal squabbles should not be reduced to mean an entirely divided opposition. In fact, the world ruling elites have manipulated geopolitical decisions and outcomes since time immemorial. These same ruling elites have initiated world wars in the past, complete with the requisite devastating effects on the little people down below. Yet the ruling class has always managed to survive as well as to hold on to their positions of power.

Israel Uneasy As Egypt Set To Accept Russian Arms

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

Rumors are now circulating suggesting that Israel is growing uneasy as a result of a recent report from the Washington Institute for Near East Policy that Egypt is seeking to acquire Russian air-defense systems such as the S-300, MiG Fighter jets, Mi-35 helicopters, Mi-17 helicopters, and Kornet anti-tank weapons.

Last month, an Egyptian newspaper reported that Egypt had recently concluded a $2 billion weapons deal with Russia which was funded by Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

The weapons deal is largely seen as a means to mitigate the threat of U.S. pressure as a result of the ouster of corrupt Muslim Brotherhood member Muhammed Morsi.

The report, entitled “Egypt’s arms deals with Russia: Potential Strategic Costs,” by David Schenker and Eric Trager, claims that the transfer of arms of this nature, particularly the MiGs and S-300, would violate the 1979 peace deal that Egypt currently maintains with Israel.

Although the helicopters are clearly related to Egypt’s battle against terrorists in the Sinai, Schenker and Trager argue that the S-300 and other related weaponry is not and, thus, should be avoided.

Schenker stated “Egypt’s priorities right now should be all about counterterrorism operations, both in the Sinai and the Nile Valley. Russian helicopters fit the bill, though S-300s and sea-to-land missiles obviously do not.”

State Department Restricts Travel of Syrian Envoy

With a recent decision restricting the movement of the Syrian envoy to the UN inside the United States, it is now apparent that the Obama administration is incapable of controlling its affronts against foreign nations despite those nations having posed no threat to them.

During the midst of an intense crisis in Ukraine as well as the continuing Western-inspired tragedy in Syria, the United States government has now taken the irrational step of limiting the movement of the Syrian envoy to the United Nations, Bashar Al-Jaafari, to the distance of 25 miles within New York City.

The United States has applied similar restrictions against the ambassadors of both North Korea and Iran.

State Department spokeswoman, Jen Psaki, stated “We have delivered a diplomatic note to the Permanent Representative of the Syrian Mission to the United Nations in New York informing him that ... he is restricted to a 25-mile travel radius.”

“U.N. delegates of certain countries are required to notify us or obtain permission prior to travel outside of a 25-mile radius. So this is not something that is out of the realm of what we've done before.”

A pro-death squad organization, Coalition for a Democratic Syria, expressed pleasure at the U.S. government’s decision to restrict the movement of Jaafari, stating that he has engaged in “a series of propaganda tours” within the United States in order to “mislead and sow discord” among Syrians living in the U.S.

The History and Science of Color Revolutions, Part 1

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

In my last article, “Color Revolutions 101: The Making Of A Controlled Revolution,” I discussed the basic setup of various State agencies, intelligence apparatus, Non-Governmental Organizations, and Foundations that enable and engineer color revolutions across the world. In that article, I attempted to show the different manifestations of the color revolution as well as the methodology used to coordinate such movements in their various locations.

Although more recent movements were the focus of that discussion, it is important to understand, however, that the color revolution is not merely a recent invention on the part of the ruling elite. In fact, this particular method of destabilization has quite a long history, having been perfected in the late 1960s and refined into an art form as time has progressed.

Indeed, Jonathan Mowat adds to the recent historical understanding of the controlled-coup and color revolutions in his article, “The New Gladio In Action: ‘Swarming Adolescents,’” also focusing on the players and the methods of deployment. Mowat writes,

Much of the coup apparatus is the same that was used in the overthrow of President Fernando Marcos of the Philippines in 1986, the Tiananmen Square destabilization in 1989, and Vaclav Havel's "Velvet revolution" in Czechoslovakia in 1989. As in these early operations, the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), and its primary arms, the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs (NDI) and International Republican Institute (IRI), played a central role. The NED was established by the Reagan Administration in 1983, to do overtly what the CIA had done covertly, in the words of one its legislative drafters, Allen Weinstein. The Cold War propaganda and operations center, Freedom House, now chaired by former CIA director James Woolsey, has also been involved, as were billionaire George Soros' foundations, whose donations always dovetail those of the NED.

What made the color revolution grow more successful, of course, is the predominance of the technology that now exists in today’s society. With the advent of cell phones, the Internet, social media and other forms of electronic communication, the ability of the color revolution to act in a more coordinated and effective fashion has been multiplied exponentially. Mowat addresses this issue when he states,

Dem Congressional Candidate Calls Fed Chiefs 'Incompetent Boobs'

Jim Davidson
Progressive Gazette
March 6, 2014

In a recent interview with Brandon Turbeville on the Truth on the Tracks radio program, Adam Rodriguez, a candidate for U.S. Congress in the 10^th District of Pennyslvania, referred to Ben Bernanke, Janet Yellen, and other Wall Street bankers as “incompetent boobs” among other insults.

During the interview Rodriguez stated “I don’t know where the heck these people come off. They have these very haughty looks, you know. They prance around Congress. They prance around Washington, D.C. as though they think they know something. They don’t know anything! They’re a bunch of incompetents. Get rid of all of them! Especially those two [Bernanke and Yellen]!”

Rodriguez then turned his sites on Alan Greenspan where he stated “Now Greenspan’s a whole new separate issue altogether. With those glasses…He looked ridiculous! Utterly ridiculous. He was another incompetent boob.”

One of Rodriguez’s platform planks involve the nationalization of the Federal Reserve and the subsequent use of that institution as a credit issuing facility directed by Congress and the President for the purposes of jumpstarting a national economic recovery.

Ukraine, 2004 - Image source

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

With the recent destabilization having taken place inside Ukraine and the ongoing destabilization of Venezuela currently playing out in South America, it is important to discuss, in a relatively detailed fashion, the manner in which the destinies of seemingly independent nations are controlled by a world oligarchy.

The precise techniques of regime change, balkanization, and the weakening of nation-states for political and/or geopolitical purposes are too lengthy to enter into a detailed expose’ in the course of this series of articles. However, it is important to understand the basics of these controlled social movements and how they work so that some guard may be erected against their continued occurrence and, at the very least, provide a mechanism for understanding a contrived revolution when it appears.

The destruction of the modern nation-state or the implementation of regime change can take a variety of forms.

The open war method, a favorite of the Neo-Con factions of the ruling elite, usually relies on the manipulation of death squads, dupes, fanatics, or mentally handicapped and criminally insane into committing or attempting to commit (acting as a patsy will suffice) a terrorist act of violence, thus justifying a response from the victim nation.

The Brzezinski method, a favorite of the more neo-liberal, leftist factions, may often involve the outright organization, arming, funding, and direction of death squads such as the method employed in Libya and Syria in order to stir up as much tension and stress as possible within the country, weaken the national government, and even allowing these death squads to directly seize power.

Lastly, there is the strategy of the “color revolution” which is largely nonviolent in terms of organized assaults but is massive in scale, politically motivated, and is often made up of largely genuine participants; although the movement itself is directed by the most disingenuous agents of powerful interests.

Ukraine "Revolution" Places Elites Back In Power

???

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

In yet another example of how the recent Ukrainian “revolution” was nothing more than an Anglo-American destabilization of a foreign nation for geopolitical purposes, recent appointments to political posts inside Ukraine should serve as clear evidence of that fact.

In addition to the appointment of national positions to individuals belonging to the neo-Nazi Fascist Svoboda party, RT reports the installment of even more questionable characters, party affiliations aside.



These separate appointments do nothing but solidify any doubt regarding the nature of the “revolution” in Ukraine as the individuals being placed into public office are clearly of the Ukrainian national Oligarchical class.

Reports of Russian Military Action in Ukraine: Fact and Fiction

Brandon Turbeville
Activist Post

As the crisis surrounding Ukraine intensifies hour by hour and the Anglo-American powers posture themselves as defenders of Ukrainian rights - which they themselves have clearly violated with the recent program of destabilization and overthrow of the Ukrainian government - the Russian side moves forward with what it claims is the necessary and proper methods of protecting Russian interests.

As the crisis continues to unfold, the presentation of the facts, particularly on the part of the Western media is not surprisingly skewed and inaccurate. Indeed, the attempts to paint Russia, whatever its faults, as an imperialist aggressor marching toward world domination have reached farcical levels.

Most bizarre, of course, might be the laughable statement recently made by Skull and Bones John Kerry. In an interview with Meet the Press’ David Gregory, Kerry stated “You just don’t in the 21st century behave in 19th century fashion by invading another country on completely trumped up pretext.” He also went on to say “You just don’t invade another country on phony pretext in order to assert your interests.”

Of course, invading other countries on trumped up pretexts has been exactly what the United States has been doing with John Kerry’s approval and facilitation ever since 9/11. In fact, John Kerry has proven his worth as a false pretext trumpeter many times over, particularly with the Syrian Ghouta chemical weapons attacks.

Nevertheless, the information currently circulating through the Western media regarding Russia’s actions is heading towards fever pitch. From claims that Russia has seized the entirety of the Crimea to claims that the world power has threatened military action against Ukrainian Navy vessels if they do not surrender, the Western media is doing its best to portray Russia’s military presence as if it were the equivalent of the Nazi invasion of Poland. 

 

It is, of course, very important to let more rational presentations of the facts prevail, especially when the results of their analysis bear such high stakes.

Russia approves request for military force in Ukraine

Only two hours after Russian President Vladmir Putin requested permission from the Russian Parliament to take military action if needed to secure and protect Russian interests in the “territory of Ukraine,” the Parliament granted him such permission in a unanimous decision on Saturday March 1, 2014.

In his formal request to Parliament, Putin stated “I'm submitting a request for using the armed forces of the Russian Federation on the territory of Ukraine pending the normalization of the socio-political situation in that country."

Putin argued that the “extraordinary situation” in Ukraine was putting the lives of Russian citizens and military personnel at risk. Putin was referring to those individuals who are stationed at the Russian naval base in the Crimean peninsula that has been in operation since the early 1990s.

Although the decision itself was a major one with wide-ranging implications for the future state of Ukraine, Russia, and the rest of the world, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Grigory Karasin attempted to lighten the concern held by many over the Parliamentary decision. Karasin stated that the recent decision does not mean that Russia is currently or immediately planning to send any additional troops to Ukraine. Karasin stated that “There is no talk about it yet.”

 

Vladmir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov, spoke to Russian television station Rossiya 24 where he stated that “while the president ‘got the entire arsenal of means necessary for settling this situation,’ he hadn't yet decided whether to use the Russian military in Ukraine or recall the ambassador from Washington.”

Peskov also stated “He will make these decisions depending on how the situation will develop. We would like to hope that the situation will not develop along the scenario it's developing now — that is inciting tensions and making a threat for the Russians on the Crimean Peninsula."
