Let’s back up a bit. The “mass graves” discovered in “newly liberated” areas of east Ukraine have FIZZLED. As with the last go-round near Kiev, the MSM quickly lost interest….. …..The U.S. Government never “officially” accused Russia of any particular/specific war crimes….. …..And the matter was not pursued actively (or at all) by the International Criminal Court. Translation: It was all just a bunch of crap, like everything else. Just a bunch of crap, fed to morons. One difference...

Netanyahu traveled to the Black Sea resort to meet the Russian leader – just five days before the election – in a move widely seen as an effort to woo elder Russian-speaking immigrants who form an important base of support for Avigdor Liberman’s Yisrael Beytenu party.

He added that the Sarmat intercontinental ballistic missile, which he asserted was “of unprecedented power,” was in the...

Once finished it will stand as a testament to the fundamental split between the European Union and the United States. Europe will see this as its first successful defense of its newly-declared independence. And the U.S. will have to come to terms with no longer having control overseas. This is a theme repeating itself all around the world right now. Your view of Nordstream 2 depends on who you are. If you are the U.S. it is a massive rebuke of the post-WWII...

According to the indictment Robert Mueller filed against him, Manafort was an unregistered “agent of the Government of Ukraine.” He also functioned as an agent of Viktor Yanukovych, Ukraine’s president from...

"We say to those groups who are betting on the Americans, the Americans will not protect you," he said without naming them. "The Americans will put you in their pockets so you can be tools in the barter, and they have started with (it)."
