How Ukraine Will Implode By Brother Nathanael Kapner March 16, 2014 © A CLASH OF TRAJECTORIES is about to uncoil in Ukraine with Kiev at the center of the chaos and cleavage. While the coup-imposed government in Kiev totters on unstable footing, the autonomous government of Crimea stands erect in view of its pending union with Russia. By all outward appearances, the coalition in Kiev has the look of a stable government. But partisan ideological and cultural differences within the regime could ignite an implosion that will leave regions of Ukraine shattered and broken beyond repair. Once the referendum in Crimea is voted on March 16 with neighboring regions following suit, Kiev’s various factions will likely erupt into an inferno of destruction. All hell will break loose. The stickum that holds the central government together is a loose plaster of personalities of widely-differing worldviews. The glue that originally joined them was their mutual hatred directed at one object — the Yanukovitch regime. But like all such political movements, without that outside focus, they will likely turn their destructive energies inward on each other in new, bloody power struggles. CRACKS IN THE PLASTER THE ‘DEMOCRATIC’ FACE of Kiev’s new regime has as its poster boys, Arseny Yatsenyuk, interim prime minister, and Oleksander Turchinov, acting president. “Yats,” a protege of international Jewish banking, is a puppet of the Jew-ridden US State Department. Turchinov, a ‘baptist preacher,’ is in bed with Zionist Jewry and arse-kissing ‘christians.’ The fissure in the mortar is the “ultra-nationalist” faction made up of members of the Right Sector, an umbrella group that unites several militant organizations which exhibits the dark side of nationalism. Their raison de etre is not love for Ukraine but hatred of Russians. Upon the illegal ouster of democratically-elected President Viktor Yanukovitch, political bargaining pasted together a make-shift coalition that brought key members of the violent Right Sector into top posts: * Secretary of National Security - Andriy Parubiy, founder of the Svoboda party/commandant of Maidan defense squads. * Deputy Secretary of National Security - Dmytro Yarosh, leader of the Right Sector bloc. * Deputy Prime Minister - Oleksandr Sych, member of Svoboda. * Prosecutor General - Oleh Makhnitsky, member of Svoboda. FALSE FLAG A FACTIONAL COUP is about to burst the seams of the threadbare fabric of Kiev’s Washington-enabled, self-imposed government. Surrendering to an ultimatum posed by Dmytro Yarosh that his militias be granted status of regular military units and access to the country’s arsenals — Yatsenyuk fired three generals for refusing Yarosh’s demands. Their objection was that by giving Right Sector militants the status of regular military units, a final split of Ukrainian society would occur and chaos in the operations of the state’s police, military, and intelligence agencies would ensue. Yarosh, (on an international wanted list for inciting terror within Russia), defied the generals with: “conservative approaches will not prevent anti-Maidan protests in the eastern and southern regions.” Yatsenyuk caved to Yarosh’s demands, granted his gangs the status of regular military units, replaced the ‘disobedient’ First Deputy Defense Minister with a pro-Yarosh man, and handed to Svoboda the government’s real power—the power of Ukraine’s military. (Apparently, the 5,000 Kalashnikovs recently reported as ’stolen’ from Ukrainian military centers were simply officially ‘appropriated.’) A false flag is in the making. By arming his militias with weapons from Ukraine’s arsenals, Yarosh can dress his soldiers in Russian uniforms and attack a Ukrainian target of his choice. The Jew-owned press will shriek, “Russia MUST be stopped”…and World War 3 begins. The Jews knocked off the goats, Iraq and Libya. It’s time to get the bear.

Former liberals are only recognized by the scarlet letter or the verbal filth poured upon their heads.

>> Want to bet that harris, i-node et al will still use it as an example of failed Democratic policies? While I'll let Steve speak for himself, I will tell you that I am non partisan and, while I didn't expect Brown to succeed, I think he has done a good job. And I think it is important to look at the basis of his success and learn from it. First, he has controlled spending. He'll say it himself -- that's the first thing you have have to do. And secondly, having controlled spending, he raised taxes. It is important to note that our legislators in DC have been totally UNWILLING to control spending. I have stated here time and again that I believe taxpayers in the US are willing to pay more taxes once they see a bona fide effort to control spending. I am and everyone I know is. But we're not stupid people; it is obvious that raising taxes today is nothing but waste. If our federal legislators and our president show a willingness to restrain spending in meaningful, serious ways, show us. Then you'll have our support. There is a very big difference, too, in raising taxes on a population which supports is versus raising taxes on one which doesn't.
