From what I see Russia is trying to rightfully protect itself from the fake arab springs and the us/soros man- made “refugee crisis”....which is dispersing Jihadists through out Europe.....while the Us continues to support militarily, financially and with arms Saudi and Qatars support of Isis groups in Syria to take out Assad. Thus leaving a gap for the Islamists to take over Governing Syria....

Why would Putin ever allow another Islamic Jihadists run government in any country on his border? He has his hands full with the ones he’s already contending with... further he’s not going to sacrifice his ports.....

This isn’t going to fair well if Obama decides to push this further before he leaves office......seems to me he and Hillary are setting the stage so she can declare war on Russia and why Russia is making all the manuvers it needs to to protect itself and Syria.

But what we hear here in our gov. controlled media is the consistent drumbeat of blaming Russia which is nothing more than scapegoating.... Blame Putin and Global Warming are this administrations go to’s when they want to deflect from their own horrible actions..while Soros and his cohort elits move the world over a collective cliff.

I did not mean to imply there was any intersted in doing so....but Russian history does not forget.....they will never let Ukraine be independent of their influence...the decision of those Ukrainians in the North has been to have a Republic....they want their Independence as a “state” in Ukraine as we have year. If that doesn't happen Putin will continue to allow the conflict zone there...just as it is...and can maintain that for decades if necessary.

The number of mythical, dreamt-up problems include the hysteria - I can't think of another word - that has broken out in the United States about the influence of Russia on the current elections for the US president."

He ended that phrase as follows: "What, is America a banana republic?!"

Hillary, what is your "fair" Share?

Hillary, When was the last time a criminal ran for President?

Hillary, when was the last time a "president" started office broke and retired a billionaire?

Hillary, before Obama, your hero, which previous president escaped deserved impeachment for grossly abusing his Constitutional duties?

Yes, Vlad, America has been a banana republic for almost 8 years, now. We apologize for making your life so utterly boring... and unchallenging.

If Putin had wanted to influence U.S. politics, all he had to do was donate to the Clinton Foundation. It's simple, really.

And this below is probably just the tip of the iceberg, as with Bill's ChinaGate scandal in the '90s. Rarely are these things easy to discover and expose.

Who’s in Putin’s Pocket — Clinton or Trump? (Clinton Uranium RussiaGate scandal)

The New American ^ | August 3, 2016 | William F. Jasper

"according to some calculations, the Uranium One deal, involving top Clinton donors Frank Guistra and Ian Telfer, has transferred as much as 50 percent of projected American uranium production to Kremlin control."

***********************************************

RUSSIAGATE

Who paid Bill Clinton's $2.5 million commission & $500,000 speaking fee (US uranium to Russia)

qura.com ^ | July 27, 2016 | Sierra Spaulding

Who paid Bill Clinton's $2.5 million commission and $500k speaking fee for brokering the sale of 20% of America's uranium deposits to Russia?

You are speaking about a really interesting deal that ended up giving Vladimir Putin and the Russians control of one-fifth of all uranium production capacity in the United States.

Since uranium is considered a strategic asset, with implications for national security, the deal had to be approved by a committee composed of representatives from a number of United States government agencies. ..." <

Americans will remember him primarily as the man who survived an apparent assassination attempt by dioxin poisoning, then rose to power on the shoulders of massive protests against a brazenly stolen election.

I didn't, but I do now... Read more here:

Yeah. Without the bananas and without the republic. IOW, just like Russia but with a more active patriotic resistance.

Yes, but we don't need any lectures or advice from that phony KGB thug/assassin/enemy of America. Anyway, he loves it that America is so weak at this time, due to Obama's DELIBERATE actions to help him and hurt us. It's why he's making these bold moves now.

No legitimate U.S. president would bow to any foreign leader.

I can agree with that.

The country is not a banana republic, but we are awakening to the grip of the establishment, and are breaking free. The charges of Russian interference are the desperate gasps of a bully that has been exposed and is about to be defeated.

Before Trump became strong enough, and gathered enough patriot support to trounce the Criminal Fat, Ugly Cow, I actually thought about a write-in vote: Vlad Putin,
for doing the job in Syria that the U.S. Magic Negro and his *itch utterly failed to do.

I can’t help but think that actually trying to occupy and run the Ukraine, a basket-case, would break Russia.

They have to go normal at some point because war and preparations for war are expensive.

...”I can’t help but think that actually trying to occupy and run the Ukraine, a basket-case, would break Russia..They have to go normal at some point because war and preparations for war are expensive.”...

Well actually keeping the North a conflict zone is relatively cheap .....Putin doesn’t have to have many forces there...rather just maintain the military base on his side of the border which has always been there....it’s the population in the North keeping the battle alive as they fight for their Independence to become a state. They will not let go of that dream.

50,000 people marched in their streets recently honoring one of their Hero soldiers......

But it is the Obama-Hillary team that Russia has to really want to continue in place. Because it was them who *intentionally* sold our security to the Russians (missile defense, nukes, including the Obama-Putin Iran deal). This as they simultaneously decimated our military. Putin very well knows all this. You have to know and understand how the Russians notoriously operate. Often, when they say one thing, they mean or desire another. They are masters of the art of deception. Excellent chess players, thinking many moves ahead of their opponents, while most of us, sadly, suck at simple checkers.

"Hysteria has been whipped up in the United States about the influence of Russia over the U.S. presidential election," said Putin, calling it a ruse to cover up for the fact that the U.S. political elite had nothing to say about serious issues such as the country's national debt or gun control.

Putin had me, he really did.

But he lost me utterly, on those two little last words.
