Ukraine’s Creditors Grab for the Biggest Pieces of Its Carcass
Eric Zuesse
The lifelong Russia-enemy George Soros, and the Russian Government itself, are now openly fighting over which parts of the Ukrainian Government they’ll be getting in the bankruptcy proceeding that’s already unofficially starting.
Here’s the necessary background, so that the battle now occurring on the part of Ukraine’s creditors can be truthfully and honestly understood:
In December 2013 — just before the overthrow of the Russia-friendly Ukrainian Government of Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych, by Soros’s American President and major political-campaign investment, Barack Obama — Russia lent Ukraine $3 billion with a contract saying that if Ukraine’s debt would rise above 60% of Ukraine’s GDP, then Russia would be able to demand immediate repayment, and Ukraine agreed to the contract’s condition that Ukraine wouldn’t pay a cent to any other creditor before the entire due-balance on this $3 billion loan is returned to Russia.

by Stephen Lendman
Coulibaly and his girlfriend Hayat Boumedienne
On Friday, three days rocking Paris ended. Cherif and Said Kouachi took refuge in a Dammartin-en-Goele printing company facility.

Separately, Amedy Coulibaly seized the Hyper Cacher food market in eastern Paris. Took hostages.
Threatened to kill them if police stormed the facility where the Kouachi brothers were holed up.
French security forces moved in. Killing Coulibaly. Four hostages were found dead. Five others wounded. Dead men tell no tales.
Global Power Project: Bilderberg Group and the Power of the Finance Ministry
by Andrew Gavin Marshall
This is the seventh installment in a series looking at the activities and individuals behind the Bilderberg Group. Read the first part, second part, third part, fourth part, fifth part and sixth part in the series.
Throughout the course of the financial and debt crises in Europe, politicians played a supporting role to financial markets and financial technocrats – that is, the economists, academics, central bankers, finance ministers and heads of international organizations who articulate the interests of powerful financial and social groups in the technocratic language of "expertise," and who enact policies, create and shape major institutions, and whose decisions affect the lives of hundreds of millions, even billions, of people.
A number of the world’s top technocrats between 2008 and 2014 have been members or guests of Bilderberg meetings. Most especially, European technocrats have been highly represented within the membership, and were among the most influential players throughout Europe’s financial and debt crises. This article examines the technocratic institution of the "Finance Ministry," specifically as it relates to the European debt crisis and the Bilderberg Group.

State of the Nation
That a Nobel Peace Prize winner would lead the charge to bring wrack and ruin to a nation like Russia is not as surprising as one would think. The USA has always been used as the primary policeman for the Anglo-American Axis (AAA), especially when military aggression is required to prevent any given nation from leaving the dollar-denominated reservation. Which is precisely why the Nobel Committee gave Barack Obama cover by fraudulently awarding him the ‘peace prize’. They knew he would be leading the USA & Company against the Russian boogeyman in the not-too-distant future. That future is 2014.
Prior to an outright military invasion the AAA has historically utilized an assortment of economic assaults and financial attacks to soften up ‘the enemy’. The current regime of extra-legal US and European sanctions, no matter what form they have taken, are all designed to destroy the Russian economy. Whether it has been declared or not, the Western powers have commenced a full blown, economic/financial war against Russia.
What very few people realize is that Obama’s rise to the presidency ONLY occurred with his agreement to prosecute Russia whenever directed to do so. In fact much of his 2008 election campaign rhetoric concerning foreign policy was peppered with language that clearly reflected his loyalty to the Cold Warriors of yesteryear. How else does anyone think he could have accumulated a record-smashing $750 million in campaign contributions?

Police State France
by Stephen Lendman
Washington took full advantage of 9/11. Sweeping police state laws followed. They remain in place.
Including the USA Patriot Act. Eviscerating fundamental Bill of Rights freedoms. The Homeland Security Act. Establishing a national Gestapo for the first time.
Various other measures targeting personal freedoms. Including unilateral executive judge, jury and executioner authority.
Rule of law protections no longer apply. Perhaps tougher laws will follow Wednesday's Paris killings.
UK police state laws are some of the continent's toughest. Including its 2005 Prevention of Terrorism Act. Eviscerating longstanding legal protections.
Donbas Humanitarian Crisis
by Stephen Lendman
US-supported Kiev putschists want Donbas residents starved to death.
On Christmas eve, Amnesty International (AI) headlined "Eastern Ukraine: Humanitarian disaster as food aid blocked."
More on AI's report below. Russia is Donbas' lifeline. Donetsk Oblast has about 4.4 million people. Lugansk Oblast around 2.2 million.
According to UN figures, around 5.2 million Ukrainians live in conflict zones. About 1.4 million are especially vulnerable. Requiring ongoing humanitarian assistance. Especially in winter.
The 300 Million-Immigrant Factor Facing America
By Frosty Wooldridge
With immigration’s continued onslaught prompted by the 1965 Immigration Reform Act jammed through Congress without debate, we added 100 million people to America from 1965 to 2007. We jumped from 194 million people to 300,000,000 (million) in 40 years by 2007. That same bill guarantees our country another 100 million immigrants within three decades, that’s 30 years.
Yet, our U.S. Senate mob and corporate puppets, supposedly representing our best interests as citizens, passed S744 amnesty bill last April, 2013. Not only does that bill give amnesty to 20 and possibly 30 million alien migrants, it increases our legal immigration onslaught from 1.1 to 2.0 million immigrants annually.
How Obama Lied About Obamacare
Eric Zuesse
When U.S. Senator Barack Obama was campaigning for the Presidency in 2007 and 2008, he promised that on healthcare, his plan would be making health insurance universal.""
This means he was promising that 100% of Americans would have health-insurance, once Obamacare (the “Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act”) is up and running.
The first open enrollment period under Obamacare lasted from October 1, 2013 to March 31, 2014; and, so, there have now been a full 15 months, during which period, it’s been up and running: Americans have been buying health insurance under the Act for 15 months now.
Paris Killings: Terrorism or False Flag?
by Stephen Lendman
Things aren't always as they seem. When incidents like this happen, take nothing at face value.
Be wary. Be suspicious. Deception often substitutes for reality. More on this below.
On Wednesday, three heavily armed masked men attacked the Paris-based satirical weekly Charlie Hebdo. Known for lampooning Islam, other religions and political figures.
The incident took place in broad daylight. Killing 12. Wounding eight others. MSM reports didn't surprise. Headlines screamed "terrorism."
BBC was typical. "Unprecedented terrorism," it said. "France has never seen terror like this." New York Times editors said the "massacre…motivated by hate." Calling what happened "terrorism."
This Species is Amusing Itself to Death (The Diagnosis for the Future Inhabitants of our Dying Planet)
By Gary G. Kohls, MD
“And when they found our shadows (grouped 'round the TV sets), they ran down every lead; they repeated every test; they checked out all the data in their lists. And then the alien anthropologists admitted they were still perplexed, but on eliminating every other reason for our sad demise they logged the only explanation left: This species has amused itself to death.” -- Roger Waters
“Apathy and indifference are nurtured in the modern age as most peoples’ free time is frittered away with worthless trivia like ball games, computer games, movies and soaps, and fiddling with their mobile phones. These distractions might be fun, but after most of them you’ve learnt nothing of any value, and remain ignorant, malleable and suggestible, which is just how the elites want you.” -- Clive Maund
