On the Friday before Russian Orthodox Easter, the Poroshenko-Yatsenyuk U.S-coup-installed Ukrainian Government attacks on all fronts on April 9th, to continue their extermination-campaign against the residents of the area, Donbass, that refuses to accept the coup-government that was installed by the U.S. when the Ukrainian President whom 90% of those residents had voted for was overthrown by the U.S. This bare-faced violation of the Merkel-Hollande-arranged Minsk truce would not happen without Obama's approval. He is choosing to have this done on Russian holy days in order to intensify the provocation against Russia. Obama is thus going all-out now to provoke from Russia a sending-in of Russian army troops and air power in order for Obama to have a pretext to go to war against Russia, his real target “in order to defend an ally” (which has been trying to exterminate the residents in the area that won’t accept Obama’s imposed rule).

Obama wants Donbass democracy crushed. He's preparing his fascist allies (overt Nazis) for escalated naked aggression.
He's arming them with heavy weapons. Claims otherwise are Big Lies. He deployed US combat troops to prepare them for battle.
He's doing it while Kiev systematically breaches Minsk ceasefire terms. Low-level conflict continues daily - heading toward resumed full-scale war at Obama's discretion.
About 300 US paratroopers arrived in Ukraine on top of hundreds of other US special forces and combat troops already there.

During the days of the Soviet Union, and in all dictatorial countries, the ‘news’ media were and are actually propaganda-media, which filter out information that the aristocracy (the people holding the real power, which in the Soviet Union were the Communist Party bosses) don’t want the public to know. Is the United States like that now?
I first came to the conclusion that the U.S. is a dictatorship in 2002, when I found proof that George W. Bush was lying to claim that he possessed proof that Saddam Hussein was rebuilding his WMD (weapons of mass destruction) stockpiles, and when the U.S. and UK ’news’ media hid this crucial fact that their heads-of-state were lying. Bush and British Prime Minster Tony Blair were arguing in 2002 against sending IAEA inspectors back into Iraq in order to verify whether or not Saddam was rebuilding his WMD stockpiles; they alleged that they (Bush-Blair) already possessed proof that he was accumulating WMD.

Obama's fascist Ukrainian friends are ruthless. They're dangerous/unscrupulous gangster thugs systematically abolishing personal freedoms.
Try finding a single major Western media report explaining Kiev regime lawlessness - and the ominous threat it poses. None exist. What demands denunciation gets scoundrel media support.
On the one hand, Ukrainian officials are actively readying for renewed full-scale aggression on Donbass - with full US support and encouragement, including heavy weapons and munitions supplied.
On the other, they're reigning terror on anyone opposing their ruthless rule - courageous individuals demanding democratic rights.

Time magazine readers called him the most influential one. In 2007, its editors chose him person of the year for his "extraordinary feat of leadership in imposing stability on a nation that has rarely known it and bringing Russia back to the table of world power."
In 2013 and 2014, Forbes magazine chose him the world's powerful leader. In 2014, Russians voted him Person of the Year for the 16th time.
His domestic approval rating is an astonishing 86% - double or more what Obama scores. Russians consider him their most trustworthy leader. Obama is polar opposite.
He has no credibility whatever. He's a war criminal multiple times over. His neocon-infested administration threatens world peace.
His war crimes remain unaccountable. They continue daily - especially against defenseless civilian men, women and children. He considers them legitimate targets.
Putin is a leading world proponent for peace and stability. Claims otherwise are Big Lies.

A new Defense for Children International-Palestine
(DCIP) report accuses Israel of willfully killing Palestinian children during last summer's Gaza war.
Around 550 children were murdered in cold blood - two-thirds under age 12.
Israel considers all civilians legitimate targets. International law calls killing them a war crime.
Another 3,400 children were injured - over 1,000 maimed for life. They need vital medical care unavailable because of Israel's lawless siege - ongoing aggression by any standard with full US-led Western support.
America and Israel partner in each other's high crimes. They're the world's leading aggressor states - the most egregious human and civil rights abusers. They're mindless of core international laws, norms and standards.
Imagine willfully murdering defenseless/nonthreatening young children at home asleep, at play, going to or from school, or running errands for parents.
Imagine considering them enemies of the state. Imagine using illegal terror weapons against them.
Imagine traumatizing young survivors for life. Imagine Israel outrageously trying to justify the unjustifiable.
Imagine a grieving Palestinian mother explaining her nine-year-old son's "arms and legs were cut off" by an Israeli shell.
"The upper part of his body was separated from his lower body, which was turned into small pieces. I screamed," she said.
She and her son were returning to a UN shelter when disaster struck. Israel murdered dozens of entire families in cold blood.

According to Donetsk People’s Republic Defense Minister Eduard Basurin, speaking Saturday April 11th, the recently reported ceasefire violations by the Ukrainian government’s side are violations by the Ukrainian government’s volunteer irregular battalions, not by regular units of the armed forces of Ukraine (which are conscripts and thus represent the will of Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko).
Furthermore, the DPR’s statement goes considerably farther, to indicate that Ukraine's President Poroshenko has actually been enforcing his side’s compliance with the ceasefire agreement. According to the from the "Donetsk People's Republic, Novorossiya”:
"On Friday, the reports came that the Ukrainian 93rd separate mechanized brigade [the Ukrainan government’s forces] had demanded from the 'Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists’ battalion [a group of nazi volunteer fighters] to abandon their positions in the area of Peski. The ‘OUN' battalion is not controlled by the Kiev authorities.

One thing for sure can be said about Obama. He's consistent. He says one thing. He does another - virtually always.
He predictably betrays the public trust with disturbing regularity. He flouts agreements with other nations - blaming them for his wrongdoing.
It's unsurprising he breached the framework nuclear deal with Iran. It's disturbing how quickly. On the one hand, his so-called fact sheet includes stipulations contrary to terms reached.

Israel commemorates Yom HaShoah/Holocaust Remembrance Day annually. Vad Vashem is its official holocaust memorial.
Netanyahu exploited the occasion this year like earlier. He denigrated the memory of millions of Jewish and non-Jewish WW II victims.
He ignored decades of Israeli inflicted genocidal slaughter on defenseless Palestinians. He finds news ways to reveal his hate-mongering/racist/serial lying viciousness.

Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov warned "(w)e have all come to the edge today where it is again necessary, just like after the second world war, to make a fatal choice between cooperation (or) conflicts."
US hegemonic ambitions make peace impossible. Lunatics run the Washington asylum. Their lust for war is insatiable.
They wage one after another. They accuse other nations for their high crimes.
Gunslinging NATO head US General Philip Breedlove risks launching WW III all by himself.
