Kerry Lectures Russia Again on 21st Century G8 Behavior
John Kerry pounded his hand on the podium today and once again lectured Vladimir Putin on appropriate 21st Century G8 behavior.
Ive spoken as directly at President Putin today as I can. It is not appropriate to invade a country and at the end of a barrel of a gun dictate what your are trying to achieve. That is not 21st Century G8 major nation behavior.
Meanwhile, Vladamir Putin test fired another ICBM missile.

21st century is no different than the 20th or the 19th except the number!
Kerry and obama can go pound sand and I hope Putin kicks the shit out of both!
Obama announces the US will not attend G8 in Russia. Who else is with us? Look behind you, Barry. There’s no one there.
Maybe Kerry could impress Putin by showing him his several Purple Hearts (Putin probably has Kerry’s SF Form and knows his awards and honorable discharge are bogus).
Obama and Kerry can rant, pout and say anything that comes to mind. The bottom line is that Putin bloodlessly fulfilled a nationalist yearning by reincorporating Crimea into Russia. The West can no more prevent it any more than it could prevent China from seizing Tibet.The Germans will never agree to effective sanctions since they realize the Russians would retaliate by curtailing energy supplies and that would put the EU economy into a tailspin.
That’s false. There are plenty of Russian assests in the west that can be expropriated if Putin wants to play economic terrorist.
Beyond economics there are also a range of non direct military actions like establishing a large NATO presence in the former SU that would humiliate Putin and give him pause.
The bottom line is none of that is going to happen not because Putin can turn off the lights but because the EU banksters are worried about losing their cut of the Russian kleptocracy. There is no leadership in the west right now to reign in the corporatists and it is showing.
The EU is abandoning all of eastern europe to the Russians with their eyes wide open. They will do nothing when he rolls tanks through a NATO country like Estonia. NATO deterrence died in Ukraine. From now on it is a paper tiger and Putin will happily poke it. Soon.
Of course Kerry’s going to run. That’s why he had his face remodeled.

So in what way is this new?
By the way... a little pet peeve of mine is the poor vocabulary choice seen in the title of the article. Double Whammy.
“Obama announces the US will not attend G8 in Russia.”
Putin announced that the $100 million he spares with the scraping of G8 gimmick, will go to the people of Crimea.
It was horrific. He still has rice in his brai...uh, ass.
“Thats why he had his face remodeled”
Remodeled from a camel’s to a horse-face?
One suspects that the podium pounding idea came from a staff meeting (in order to show resolve and determination and pretend toughness), and was pre-rehersed (and that Mister Putin is highly amused).
I never underestimate the observation skills of 93yo women. I’ve had the association of a few
BTW, wasn’t Kerry in Viet Nam?
You know Vlady laughing his a*** at Kremlin right LOL!
I would love this, as Mister Kerry is even more defeatable now than before.
Perhaps Kerry should hold his breath until Putin gives in. :)
Particularly the observations of a 93 yo conservative woman!;-)
Particularly In fact, they are the only ones with views to share The others, stuck in denial. And devotion to the Kennedy’s. harmless but uninteresting
Go throw some medals at them, you jerk.
Great comment.
