The enemy is not Putin nor Trump: Our enemies are the real liars

July 30, 2016 by Phil Butler 4 Comments

With a wave of a mighty hand, Vladimir Putin causes chaos in an American presidential race. A sporting man since forever, winning is everything to Putin. Why his entire Olympic team was force fed steroid cocktails. To men like Russia’s president, leaving glory to chance is unthinkable. And everybody knows, there is no safe haven from the multitude of Putin trolls. He and his minions will stop at nothing. Everyone knows this.

But wait! Since when has there ever been any hard evidence of any of this diatribe? How many damning Vladimir Putin stories did you ever read, connected to a shred of verifiable evidence? How many times were “unnamed sources” or words like maybe, probably, and likely been used to implicate the Russian leader? In every case but one, that’s how many. Of the millions of stories floating about the internet in Google’s indexes, only one story contains proof that Putin misled anybody. The “Little Green Men” securing Crimean bases in 2014, owe their lives to their commander-in-chief. Yes, Putin lied about their existence, any commander would.

Washington expected Putin to divulge Spetsnaz special forces units when Kiev was set ablaze by the CIA and the US State Department

It is amazing, I know, the idea what I am saying could be true. I assure you, that besides those instances this writer cannot be privy to knowing, Putin has been the most honest leader of any nation in the last 70 years. And he has done so under the most severe scrutiny and criticism. Little Green Men, and all else is simply speculation, subjective, opinion, or concocted lie. Now let’s move on to the real liars, the side with the dark motives.

Google ads bought by think tanks – since when?

The screen shot you see above is the page one of a Google search for Putin. My world is made up of a series of such searches every day. To find out the real news in the world, I have to even use reverse psychology, iconography, and social media psychology to formulate a theory of what is going on. The “truth” nowadays is just that elusive. Look for “Putin” – discover what his opponents in the west want you to discover – then discover their motives. Look at the ads at the top of this search engine page. Look at the imagery, see Donald Trump yelling, and Vladimir Putin listening. Is that subliminal messaging by Google? Wait, go back to the ads. Who placed those, and why?

Putin and Yelena Isinbayeva, two-time Olympic champion, deliver a rousing challenge for Russia to compete well at Rio in spite of damaging western attacks — Putin and Yelena Isinbayeva, two-time Olympic champion, deliver a rousing, emotional challenge for Russia to compete well at Rio in spite of damaging western attacks

“How Dangerous is Putin”, who in this Putin fascinated world would “not” click on that? The American Enterprise Institute placed that advertisement, and I assure you it cost a pretty penny too. For those unfamiliar, AEI is supposed to be an NGO, but acts more like a lobbying arm of Exxon Mobil and other donors to its research. Former Vice President Dick Cheney was once of the scholars here. Clicking on the ad takes the reader to the signup page for AEI, and then to the profile of Leon Aron, the think tank’s Director of Russian studies. Let me break this ad insertion at this crucial time down for you. Finding the “message” is really easy.

Leon Aron discusses RFE/RL Ukrainian Service reporting with video journalist Yevhen Solonyna, at RFE/RL's bureau in Kyiv - now there's unbiased thinking — Leon Aron discusses RFE/RL Ukrainian Service reporting with video journalist Yevhen Solonyna, at RFE/RL’s bureau in Kyiv – now there’s unbiased thinking

There is no story “How Dangerous is Putin” underneath that link. Aron’s top story, underneath his biography, is an interview entitled; Leon Aron: “Don’t expect a new détente between Russia and the West”, first released at another NGO, the Institute of Modern Russia. IMR is owned by Vladimir Putin’s worst enemy, ousted Russian oligarch Mikhail Khodorkovsky. What is more important here, is the subterfuge, the monetization of a message, Washington leaders, behind the scenes and in collusion with one of the most ruthless men on Earth. Now Vladimir Putin was found out lying to cover a strategic necessity in Crimea, but let me show you how Washington thinkers lie. Aron is asked by the Olga Khvostunova, editor-in-chief of imrussia.org about the nature of the current West-East crisis, to which he replies:

“The crucial problem is that today there are no races for colonies. The situation is more complicated: the driving forces behind Russia’s new revisionism, its new messianism, if you will, are some very serious domestic policy imperatives facing Vladimir Putin. Starting around 2012–2013, this regime decided to base its legitimacy on identifying itself as a great power that should be feared and respected—as opposed to [basing it on] economic growth.”

I will throw down the gauntlet to Aron here. This is a bold faced lie sir, and anyone who has an ounce of objectivity in their body knows it. Starting about 2008, the mission of Washington was to redraw the map, and to backstab Vladimir Putin and Russia to reallocate the wealth of this world. Putin’s emergence or “3^rd Way” plan is based almost entirely on two concepts. A sustainable economics that fuels Russia’s growth, and a new dynamic form of authority based government of the people, these are the bases for Putin’s mission. This is irrefutable, and the neocon and ultra liberal assault on this is too. The Russia “reset” Obama and Hillary Clinton orchestrated was the ultimate backstab, a ploy to lure Russia into the disaster we see today. Unfortunately, Ukraine was a step too far and too fast. Aron goes on to frame the Putin administration as some kind of narcissist led military junta, a Stalin-like government bent on world domination. The AEI fellow reverses reality, and retells the story of disintegrating détente according to Mikhail Khodorkovsky, and the big energy icons behind him. But these men are liars of the first order, everything that comes from them is either fantasy or convoluted truth. Let’s move on.

Hillary Clinton with Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein at the Clinton Global Initiative

The second ad you see was bought by The Wilson Center, another notorious Washington think tank. There is a distinction in between AEI the organization named for former President Woodrow Wilson, the latter is partially funded by the US government. Other than this distinction though, the policy formation enterprises are the same. Tom Nides, the Vice-Chairman of Morgan Stanley, is the chairman of the think tank today. Nides left the Obama administration and his post as Deputy Secretary of State under Hillary Clinton, to take on the role at Morgan Stanley. This only has relevance when we consider the current “Trump-Putin” ticket being passed in the media. Well, come to think of it, his role with Fannie Mae and Credit Suisse may have something to do with current world affairs, but this is another story. What’s important here is the ad by the center, and where that ad leads.

Once again, there is no story “What Will Putin Do Next?” Clicking the link brings up what the Wilson Center wants readers to see first. The big headline underneath, get this, is a plea from a mother for the continued war on the Donbass: “Make Sure He Did Not Die in Vain!” Pavel Sheremet’s Mother Pleads for Ukraine to Keep.” I implore you, sit a moment and let this sink in.

As shocking as the murder of journalist Pavel Sheremet by a car bomb in Kyiv was, it is no more shocking than the two journalists who died under a hail of mortar fire because the psychopath UKROP officer Nadiya Savchenko gave away their position. As criminal as Sheremet’s execution was, the gravity of the event is washed over by the millions displaced, by the children blown to bits, all because of neo-imperialism from the west. Of course, people may argue here, but find me a Wilson Center piece defending civilians under artillery fire in either the Donbass or Gaza or Yemen or Libya, or ANYWHERE in disagreement with Washington ideals! Find me one, I challenge you.

Look at technology evangelists about the web - to a man or woman they throw in with the Clintons - why? — Look at technology evangelists about the web – to a man or woman they throw in with the Clintons – why do you suppose?

Vlarimir Putin lied like his pants were on fire about his soldiers and their mission to secure Russians to their Russian protectors in Crimea. Vladmir Putin misdirected the media so Russia’s second most important naval base could be secured from NATO. Vladimir Putin lied for Russia. His people know why, and almost all condone it.

The Clinton Foundation raked in $149 million in 2013. Only $9 million was spent on grants to help people

On the Wilson Center’s Keenan Institute’s front pages there are a dozen lies. The headlines tell us the primary interest of this institute is to poison. The subject of every story is Russia or Putin, or of some context to the current Washington hegemony. The headlines tell the truth:

· American Politics Caught in a “Russian Trap”

· Russia As a Mirror Image of Europe

· The Trump Doctrine on Russia and Ukraine

· Tinker Tailor Soldier Hacker: The Russian Factor In the DNC Email Scandal

· We Are Right, You Are Wrong: Russia’s Response to Brexit

· War Fever

· Can the U.S. and Russia Avoid an Arctic Arms Race?

· Putin’s Hard/Soft Strategy

I need not continue. Americans are paying to be brainwashed. The US Government subsidizes these war drums, taxpayers are funding corporations that steal life, liberty, and the truth. The sense that America has become the most corrupt nation on Earth… It is no longer just a sense my friends. The Keenan Institute’s Twitter blossoms with ad nauseam Trump-Russia-Clinton brainwashing…. So do all the other think tanks, so do the Clinton Foundation partner’s billboards, and so do every defense contractors, every big oil boss, every Hollywood studio, and the heads of Google, Amazon, Oracle and more.

I searched Hillary Clinton on Google 100 times - I could not find one controversial quote — I searched Hillary Clinton on Google 100 times – I could not find one controversial quote displayed by Google

Vladmir Putin does what is necessary in the interests of Russia, but where lying is concerned, there is no corner like the Clinton corner. Test this. Type in Hillary Clinton into Google. On the right of your screen you will see a profile come up. Underneath that profile a campaign goal will appear, a statement from Clinton. These statements rotate, but this one titled Education is in my browser now:

“As president, I’ll work to ensure every child—from every ZIP code—has access to a world-class education, including access to high-quality preschool. We need to strike the right balance on testing—with fewer, fairer and better tests for elementary and secondary school students. And we must support teachers with the training and resources they need.”

Then Secretary Hillary Clinton with Wilson Center and Morgan Stanley Chairman Thomas R. Nides

Now, type in “Donald Trump”, as a Google search term, and look to your right. Underneath his profile picture, this is what appears in sync with Clinton’s quote, under the subtitle Immigration:

“They’re bringing drugs, they’re bringing crime, they’re rapists,” Trump said of undocumented Mexican immigrants while announcing his candidacy last June.”

I searched "Trump" 100 times - and these quotes appear prevalently — I searched “Trump” 100 times – and these quotes appears prevalently as the page refreshed – Google is whitewashing Clinton in my opinion, and manually

Now refresh the pages by either hitting F5 or the browser refresh/reload button. Trump’s negative immigration quotes come up 7 of 10 times, the rest are similar controversial quotes. As for Hillary, every one of her media citations delivered from Google are “presidential” in nature. Yes, Google has manually set the message for you. I can show this via sequential screenshots, but the point here is, finding the biggest liars. Who are they?

Where America is concerned, the answer is pretty easy. Anyone in association with, supporting, backing, or lobbying for a Clinton White House. And what’s most amazing in this, is the fact that everybody knows this by now. “Clinton Cash” is released, revealing the depth of Clinton Foundation graft and skullduggery. WikiLeaks reveals Clinton lying to Congress, the FBI, and to the American people. Clinton is caught on camera bragging about killing foreign leaders. And the whole Washington pig waller is continually proven in collusion with corporations, media, and foreign interests. The stench of America’s leadership fumigates the antechambers of heaven, and “Little Green Men” are the cause of worldwide instability. My God, Google is the biggest investor in the cyber security firm The New York Times cites for proof the Kremlin hacked the Democrats! And Putin was supposed to betray Russian special forces during a coup d’état [(kooh day-tah)] ?

If the reader still believes Vladmir Putin is the problem we face, I have no words…

The IOC Decision: On Good Sports and Bad, and the Businesses Underneath.

July 25, 2016 by Phil Butler Leave a Comment

Yesterday IOC President Thomas Bach, and the rest of the executive board ruled to allow clean Russian athletes to compete at the Rio Games. Ruling justly in the only sportsmanlike and humane decision possible, the Olympic leadership has now drawn the ire of corporate head-hunters who wanted Russia banned.

Punishing hundreds of athletes for the sins of a few, isn’t that idea terroristic in itself? We balk at the slightest insinuation an act of violence may be connected to ISIL or racist zeal, but then we watch as powerful forces wreak havoc in other instances. Think about this for a moment. Isn’t destroying the life of a world class competitor who has spent their whole life training for the Olympics terror? For such athletes, the World Anti-Doping Agency might as well have put a pistol to their heads and pulled the trigger. Any top notch athlete reading this knows, sudden death would be infinitely preferable to the intolerable suffering of “what might have been”. But then, not everyone is on the up-and-up, and not everyone even understands athletics at this level. Today, as the collective moaning and whaling by Russophobes stuffs our ears, I want to alleviate some of the pain for good sports out there.

Has anyone read what really what was in the so-called McLaren report? I doubt anyone reading the New York Times’s has. Most readers had just as soon catch the headlines and believe. Does anyone out there realize, that a very few reporters have actually covered this case? I think most people just scan articles, and they read what they want to read. Let me give you a couple of examples of what the uninformed reader or news viewer has been up against here. There are essentially two kinds of people dead set on keeping ANY Russian athlete out of the Rio Olympics. See if you can identify examples you heard from, based on the following profiles.

Yes President Putin, we have the pee pee samples. Yes, we will return to the Kremlin immediately!" 60s spy spoofs Maxwell Smart and Agent 99 — “Yes President Putin, we have the pee pee samples. Yes, we will return to the Kremlin immediately!” 60s spy spoofs Maxwell Smart and sexy Agent 99 with their shoe phones

The Reporters

Rebecca Ruiz looks as if she may have played Croquet on her grandparent’s lawn when she was a kid. The New York Times researcher and reporter went to Cornell to major in Hotel Administration, but now she is at the forefront of western media expert-ness, a diligent torch bearer for all those who seek the pinnacle of sportsmanship. She’s obviously a bright girl, a bibliophile, one of those quaint people you’d expect to find reading quietly in a great-big-library somewhere. Her Twitter profile header is a stack of books, but I know her inline skates and ski poles gather dust somewhere in a closet at her loft apartment in New York. Unless I am wrong, unless Ruiz was Cornell’s backup basketball center in college days, I’d say Olympic sport has been only something she’d been aware of, before building the case against Russian athletes for the NYT. Here’s the thing about Ruiz. On one level she should completely understand how banning a whole Russian team is the ultimate unsportsmanlike conduct.

Ruiz may not be able to hit a shuttlecock across badminton net, but she has to know what dedicating life to something means. The NYT researcher has dedicated herself to deep study, since before Cornell, I’ll wager. But I think a natural ambition is what made her fall hook-line-and-sinker for the Grigory Rodchenkov rendition of state sponsored doping in Russia. Looking at this report, the 007 James Bond spoofy nature of it, speaks to me of a reporter in search of a sensation. I wonder how many intelligent people really read “Russian Doctor Explains How He Helped Beat Doping Tests at the Sochi Olympics?”

My explanation of the New York Times Russian doping lab diagram

The piece is ridiculously funny, if absorbed through a pragmatic mind that is, but as goofy and corn-ball as the NW York Times version is, this BBC Sport report is thing slapping. According to this version, an FSB spy disguises himself as a sewer maintenance worker each time the doped pee is swapped for good pee. No, I am not kidding. Instead of just bribing somebody with their own Sochi dacha, Putin had his men set up an elaborate cloak and dagger masquerade. The diagram given (see above revised by me) looks like something out of a Tom Cruise – Mission Impossible script. And the elaborate system of pee pee swapping described, through a Tom and Jerry mouse hole no less, it reminds me of the Sochi toilet scandal before the 2014 Olympics. Room 125, the “Official Urine Sample Collection Room”, has a Maxwell Smart pass through to Room 124, where FSB agents wait patiently to deliver discus thrower pee to the Kremlin. Read the story now, then pick up on your super spy shoe phone, I’ll have Vladmir Putin call you when you are done. Yes, the story is that naïve, that stupid. The biggest break in the story for anyone looking at the Putin “regime” comes at the end.

“A third of Russia’s 33 medals were awarded to athletes whose names appeared on a spreadsheet outlining the government’s doping plan.”

Now wait just a dog gone minute! The New York Times editorial board will surely fire Ruiz when they learn, the Putin they know so well allowed 22 athletes to compete clean! Yes, here is how Ruiz’s bosses characterize Vladimir:

“Syria is just one arena where Mr. Putin’s obsessive quest to make Russia great again has fueled instability and reawakened political suspicions and animosities that faded after the fall of the Soviet Union.”

Can anybody in Russia defy direct orders to DOPE issued by the modern Joseph Stalin? No, I say. The Putin western “experts” depict controls everything with an iron fist. The fact any of these people are still left alive, clean athletes including, suggests there was a mis-step in the control mechanism! But mouse holes and spy novel diagrams aside, there’s the whisky delivered – mouth swooshing of steroids by Russian athletes to consider. Sorry, I reached the pay wall of the New York Times before I could grab for you the part where Rodchenkov administered the Gold Medal Dope to athletes by giving them drugs in a dose of Chevas Regal or Martini (ladies only) to gargle with. No, I am not joking. Putin’s athletes do their best impressions of Daniel Craig and Eva Green in Casino Royale (shower scene below), according to these sports experts.

"Vesper, Putin's doctor says I have to suck the steroids from your fingers to achieve maximum effect." — “Vesper, Putin’s doctor says I have to suck the steroids from your fingers to achieve maximum effect. If I refuse, the FSB men outside will kill us both!”

I have to leave off here, the idiotic drama gets even stickier. My point in profiling Ruiz was to suggest writers only write about what they understand, or what they are expert at. And Ruiz is not qualified to discuss sportsmanship as it applies to banning innocent athletes caught in a political war. Let’s move on.

The Bad Sports

Before the IOC rendered its decision on Sunday, RT called to ask me to comment on a report in The Times. According to the RT producer, the news from Rupert Murdoch’s newspaper in the UK used athletes and other notables to demand Russia be banned. Clearly, understandable, RT was concerned over the implications of UK media lobbying so hard against Russia. But what RT did not have time to investigate, was who stood behind. I mentioned Rupert Murdoch, who is the poster boy of Putin haters, but others involved are even more interesting. I’ll be brief here, but the reader will glean the essence of the Russia doping fiasco with this. In the Sunday Times:

“Javelin thrower Tessa Sanderson and others British athletes urged the IOC to impose the blanket ban on Russia.”

Now pay attention here. I did not have to dig any deeper than the lead on this article, and I gladly avoided going past the pay wall to get the meat of The Times’s anti Russia advertisement. As it turns out, the intricate relationships in the world of sport in Britain are revealed in this one athlete’s endeavors. You see, Tessa Sanderson is an Olympic Gold medal winner, former Vice Chairman of Sport England, Olympic Park Legacy Company board member, and Ambassador for the 2012 Olympic Games. Pay close attention here, and see the prototypical anti-Russia athlete spokesperson.

Baroness Margaret Ford in her offices overlooking London's Olympic Park — Baroness Margaret Ford in her offices overlooking London’s Olympic Park

Tessa Sanderson was also selected to the board of the Olympic Park Legacy Company by Baroness Margaret Ford (above). The Baroness is coincidentally a on the board of the notorious SERCO security outsourcing company with a history of problems, failures, fatal errors and overcharging. In a recent speech before the House of Lords she took great pride in welcoming newly knighted former Goldman Sachs exec turned London Games organizer Lord Deighton. In every instance I can find, athletes vehemently demanding a Russian ban, always leads to vested interests underneath. Knowingly, or unwittingly the world class athletes in support of inhumanely banning even clean athletes, they are in one way or another supported by money from the elites. I’ll give another example of “who is behind” the sports war on Russia. This is from a press release:

“Tessa Sanderson Foundation and Academy (TSFA) today announced Saudi Aramco, a global petroleum enterprise, as a sponsor of the East London Half Marathon, London’s newest half marathon set to take place in the Stratford area, which was at the heart of the 2012 London Olympic and Paralympic Games.”

The business of training athletes must go on, just as world politics must go on. It may interest the reader to know about one of the athletes the Tessa Sanderson Foundation and Academy has worked with though. Alex Al Ameen was a member of Team Britain before the London games. An injury kept him out of competition then, but he is headed to Rio today, only for Team Nigeria instead. What’s so interesting about this Sanderson deciple is, he’s a 110 meter hurdles competitor. What makes that so interesting, you ask? Well, the current world champion in the men’s hurdles is Russia’s Sergey Shubenkov (above), who will now be competing thanks to Thomas Bach and the IOC. Guess who else is in the running in the 110? America’s Devon Allen, world record holder Aries Merritt, and 2016 champ Marcus Krah who won at the IAAF World Championships that Shubenkov was not allowed to enter. Maybe this makes my point, but if not, this will. Krah won the world championship with a time of 13.30. Shubenkov’s time at the 2015 World’s was 12.98 seconds. For those of you who have never ran track, three tenths of a second is light years in the 110. The world record of 12.80 seconds, held by Merritt, is a still further galaxy away.

The Finish Line

Breaking the tape to win here are; Thomas Bach, the rest of the IOC executive board, along with the ethics committee. The decision to allow, but to minutely examine all “clean” Russian athletes headed to Rio was fair, sportsmanlike, and in the best interest of sport overall. More importantly, failing to ban some of the world’s finest athletes, those totally above reproach, offers hope in a world where big business and low down morals have become commonplace. I told RT last week I thought Bach and the IOC would take flack over such a decision, and they certainly are now. But here’s the thing. Bach and these others IOC executives are business people too. Let’s not be naïve. I am also sure of the conversations that must have gone on before the decision was rendered. The forces against Russia and Putin are immense; we all know this by now. The entirety of western media reports daily of some Putin travesty, and invasion, a murder, a KGB plot to take over the world. Sochi opened the door for crazy sensationalism, raging wolves wandering the streets, Chechnya terrorists at every ski event venue, and the gay community slaughtered like sacrificial sheep in the Krasnodar. If Putin had lived in Palestine 2000 years ago, he’d have been crucified alongside Jesus.

This is unarguable, the craziness and poor sportsmanship America, Britain, and most of the rest of the west has shown toward Russia. Yes, Russian athletes have been caught cheating, and so have Americans and others. But demanding a whole team be banned? It was simply the latest in a long list of politicized events aimed at hurting a people. Think about this. Grasp the reality, and scoff at the infantile liars who throw together “truth” without the thinnest of evidence. “Sources” said, “supposed” agents, “Putin probably” diatribe that goes on, and on, and on, and on, and on. Ask an honest athlete who he or she wants to compete against, and they will tell you they want “all” the odds against them. Champions want their competition to be impossible, favored, and indomitable, for this is where legends are made.

I’ll leave you with an Olympian quote that illustrates what every great athlete aspires to. Imagine how many cheaters a true champion defeats in a career:

“I never lost a freestyle race. Never. Not even in the YMCA.” – Johnny Weissmuller – Winner of five Olympic Gold Medals and the man who set more than 50 world records in swimming.

Imagine, never having been defeated, not ever. And for those out there who are not sports people, Ms. Ruiz maybe, the epitome athleticism is winning against any odds. Maybe everyone should study this, rather than how to win on a technicality or political sham.

The Putin-Trump Ticket: How the Clintons Lost the World

July 22, 2016 by Phil Butler 1 Comment

The Atlantic fell right into the trap. Jeffrey Goldberg has just enabled Donald Trump to whisk his way into the White House. I will bet the Zionist wordsmith has no idea what he did when he proclaimed “It’s Official: Hillary Clinton Is Running Against Vladimir Putin”. Don’t worry Jeff, I am about to explain it to you.

Before I explain how Donald Trump will be the next US president on account of Goldberg, let me bring you up to speed on the conduit of Trump (and Putin) success.

The Atlantic is owned by David G. Bradley, and the Atlantic publishes what David wants. What David wants more than anything else in the world is for his financial clients to be happy. You see David founded and sold a company now known as CEB (formerly the Corporate Executive Board). The self professed “neocon” is not a high profile celebrity Bill or Hillary Clinton is, but associations with thousands of corporations, along with half a billion in personal wealth make their mark. Why David is even on the Council of Foreign Relations. As for David’s politics and ideals, one only need look as far as an organization called “New America” to discover.

Coming to terms with the truth, no matter how unpopular

Good Old America: Just Not Good Enough

New America, where Bradley is a member of the board, is headed up by Anne-Marie Slaughter. This distinguished lady was the US State Department’s Director of Policy Planning under Hillary Clinton, the first woman to ever hold the position. New America. I won’t insult my reader’s intelligence by explaining what kind of new United States these people would form. This is abundantly clear, as are their connections. Here is who funds the initiative to create our “New America” with donations of $1 million dollars or more:

Aphorism Foundation
Arizona State University
Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation
Ford Foundation

William and Flora Hewlett Foundation
Lumina Foundation
Eric and Wendy Schmidt
Jennifer and Jonathan Allan Soros Foundation

If there are any questions, please submit them in the comments. Now let’s move on.

Now I want to scare the hell out of my fellow Americans. Hillary Clinton, the people behind her, are already laying the groundwork for the biggest rip-off of citizens of a country, the Earth has ever witnessed. Sounds conspiratorial, doesn’t it? Well, right now the future Clinton Administration staffing is being prepared. If you thought Barack Obama lined his administration with Wall Street blood suckers, Hillary’s regime will be packed with all-stars of corporate thievery. I won’t run you through the roster here, but imagine this election as a test, a test of just how far the American people have sunk into the Kool-Aid pitcher. All those high financial society supporters drooling over the first ever female president, they are not just in love with Mrs. Clinton’s latest hairstyle. By God, in case you don’t know it yet, this is that infamous New World Order (NWO). The next 4 years will be Obama on known as ecstasy (E). But you are already split 50-50, minds almost made up on either Hillary or Trump. Here’s where Jeffrey Goldberg just won it for Trump, and his running mate Vladimir Putin. You’ll love it.

Be a Man: Vote Trump-Putin

Half of the ladies reading this editorial are going to hate me about one paragraph down from here. Unfortunately for Atlantic readers and writers though, the other half will silently applaud me. A woman as president of the United States is probably a long overdue circumstance. By now the nation should probably have been led by two, or even by three distinguished and capable women. The problem with Hillary Clinton is not that she is female, it’s the species of femininity she exemplifies that is the problem. You will get an idea of what I am driving at reading a Huffington Post article about the real issues in this election, whether or not Hillary is a so-called “ball buster”, for instance. Assuming for a moment Hillary and her pseudo-feminine alliance are all “ball busters”, let’s venture to fantasize about her presidency when she found out a colleague thinks of Clinton like most men do: The Huff Po writer and teacher, Pamela Newton opens our little presidential drama with:

“I bristled recently when a guy I know — a generally progressive, liberal-minded kind of fellow — said that Hillary Clinton was “kind of a Margaret Thatcher. “ When I asked him to elaborate, he said, “Well, she’s a bit of a ball buster.”

She bristled! Bristling is something I imagine Hillary doing in every dramatic moment as president.

“Hillary bristled at the general when he suggested NATO might not be able to contain the Russian offensive her policies provoked!”

I think, somewhere deep down underneath, that all the real men and half the intelligent women in America shudder at the notion of this woman as Commander in Chief of the most powerful (and expensive) military the world has ever known. And while Hillary’s die hard fans “bristle” at the suggestion she is a crook, liar, or incompetent, evidence abounding, a fan is a fanatic. For the “bristlers” out there, Hillary is that big chance at being woman, and the world hearing the collective roar coming to fruition. Meanwhile, the real feminine watches in astonishment, as a herd moos in unison. Oh my.

I am trying hard now to imagine Vladimir Putin “bristling” over anything. Envisioning Donald Trump all flustered and becoming “stiff with anger or frustration”. My word, Mr. Trump would as soon do a John Wayne swagger impression and tell a French President to FO, as jump up red cheeked and flustered like a primp. For God’s sake, at worst he is an American madman, willing to go down with the ship rather than abandon the semblance of manliness! I told you half the ladies would hate me, but so be it. 99% of the men reading this would rather face a firing squad than be “bristled” at by a psychotic woman president. Now admit it. Clinton as chief executive would be like the worst ever bad mommy incident in your life, the scarring would just keep on delivering.

Mr. Goldberg has delivered us redemption though. Americans admire Vladimir Putin, and not for his three dimensional chess games either. No, Putin is no chauvinist, and neither am I. He is a pragmatic, and Hillary Clinton or anybody like her in the office of the presidency of America is impractical. If we consider the world to be in trouble at all, then putting one of the perpetrators of chaos in ultimate charge, it’s simply madness. But if The Atlantic wants to poll the world on leadership, the results of a Trump-Putin ballot would certainly surprise. But I am skirting the issue a bit here. We are down to brass tacks, as they say. America has a decision to make, and a tantamount one.

Donald Wayne — John Wayne would definitely have voted Trump or Putin in favor of a lily liver

Are You a Man or a Mouse?

For those unfamiliar with this old euphemism, it is something people used to say in order to encourage someone to be brave when they are frightened to do something. A vote for Trump-Putin ensures all Americans, and the world, that the United States has not gone completely lily livered pinko crazy. And this is a much needed stabilizing factor. Putting Putin popularity worldwide aside, the real issue here is truth. Is it true that we have subjugated women? Absolutely it is true. Can women perform equally well in leadership roles? Absolutely they can, this is a rhetorical question. Does America need a ball busting extremist who will play the “feminist” card as if in a poker game? Absolutely, not, at least not right now. Now here’s where all the real men, and half the intelligent women still reading this get voting instructions.

“What America needs soon, is a woman acting like a woman running things. We do not need a woman, acting like a man, trying to run things. A man like Trump can do the man role better.” Phil Butler

It was Plato who once classified the supreme nature of truth for humanity, the essence of good, as it were. According to Plato, the natural order of things was inextricably tied to justice, and that notion as it resides in every human. Plato characterized four virtues in particular: “wisdom, courage, temperance, and justice. Other important virtues are fortitude, generosity, self-respect, good temper, and sincerity. In addition to advocating good habits of character, virtue theory holds that we should avoid acquiring bad character traits, or vices, such as cowardice, insensibility, injustice, avarice, and vanity”. (1) The referenced fragment here comes from a book I reviewed recently by Francesca de Bardin entitled; Fighting Global Tyranny: Where Are the Women? The book is very, very smart, a 30 year endeavor by one of the so-called “elites”, about the lacking maternal role in leadership. Using the essence of this work, I will now convince the audience in the ethereal place this story reaches.

Exhibit A: Why John Kerry is not president

Francesca de Bardin will not totally agree with all I have said here. I know I have been a little too “plain” in my paternal prerogative, some will have really “bristled” I assure you. However, the centuries of paternal leadership she outlines in parts of her work, characterize men for what they are; protective, competitive, and very often combative. This is our nature, it is an honest one, and both Putin and Trump exemplify it, albeit Putin’s pragmatism shines more often. Turing to femininity, and leadership roles, de Bardin classifies past and current feminine leadership roles too. She professes the dire need for more feminine influence, and I wholly agree (as Putin himself would). And here is the rub.

Exhibit B: When American presidents go full sissy

Hillary Clinton possess not one of the inherent characteristics of a truly feminine leader. She is combative, competitive, aggressive, and unjust, a kind of tyrant, according to anyone near her who is honest. She wears the clothes, she has the anatomy, but she is essentially acting out a masculine doctrine of behavior. Anyone who interested in finding the truth can see this. She does not even try to hide it. Being a so-called “ball buster” is what female leaders like Clinton think is appropriate. Clinton truly believes America needs “man ideas and modes” carried out by a woman! Think about this.

Are men in the world ready for a woman leading the world like a man? Is this balance? Well, Donald Trump can never be said to be “balanced” in a moderate sense, but at least he is not pretending to be a woman running for president. He may erect a wall in between Mexico and the US! But that would be honest, and it would create jobs. And maybe America needs a wall there? Sure, Trump might be best buddies with Vladimir Putin too! How will that play out, do you think? “The US and Russia agreed today, to scorch the Earth beneath the feet of ISIL, and to hunt down every terrorist on the planet!” Economically, I do not see the down side of America and Russia as pals either. On the “gay” issue, I don’t think fewer LGBT parades is a major issue in our world, do you? Overall, and after all, how much more messed up could electing Trump president be, than electing a Nobel Peace Prize winner who has killed more people than Ronald Reagan, Clinton, and both Bushs combined!

Hillary Clinton — Exhibit C: Questions? Trump is a certified big mouth, and?

Be a man. Be a woman, and vote for some clarity this time. If you must have a woman for president, then vote for Dr. Jill Stein, she’s the real feminine choice anyhow. Personally, I think men screwed up the world, and it will take women to fix it. So go figure my duality I suggest you read the book mentioned earlier, or this Psychology Today analysis of Barack Obama and the imminently successful Brazilian President Lula da Silva. Read these, and the come back here an argue. Meanwhile, for you real men out there, The Atlantic spelled out your path, go vote Trump.

Oh Beautiful: What Happens When the Printing Press Stops?

July 10, 2016 by Phil Butler Leave a Comment

America is about to boil over. In Europe, people just want to bury their heads in the sand for once. The emerging countries, wobble back and forth like dashboard figurines under the east and west pressure. And in Russia and China leaders decide on the inevitability of full our war with the western hemisphere. We are in the worst mess ever, here on the third rock from the sun, and there’s nobody out there telling the truth!

Western media just lies, but independent journalists, the Global Research types of the world have made it harder. Russia’s RT and Sputnik, they have been a David versus Goliath success story. A few measly millions in budget, set against trillions spent telling the London and Washington tale. Proof that the truth cannot be hidden too long is revealed daily. At Bloomberg, it now takes three liars to try and eek out a false truth. Under a headline “Putin Haunts NATO Summit as Leaders See Threat on All Fronts”, there are three distinct types of journalists listed as authors.

Up With Careers – Down With Putin

First, Ian Wishart is a superb financial reporters who somehow changed after 2012. I am not a fan of singling out such people, but in the current mess, dissecting what happened to media is key. Wishart’s blog offers some clues as to how really good journalists just get confused in the turmoil of a propaganda war. This guys has a deep understanding of Brussels politics and power, the IMF and so on, but no concept of the Russians or the emerging world’s side in all this. This 2012 piece for the European Voice is spot on. Later pieces for Bloomberg venture into the corporate rhetoric. Perhaps Wishart is one of those affected by the “culture” of anti-Putin sentiment? Whatever his motivations, his tendency to “fit in” is apparent. His personal blog stopped in 2012, just after his last poke at Italy’s Berlusconi. His career has developed interestingly. From 2010 to 2013, Wishart worked with the Economist Group, which is partially owned by Putin-Berlusconi arch enemies Rothschild, Schroder, and Agnelli. So the career went up, the blog went down, and the Economist led to Bloomberg versus Putin etc.

It’s a Job, Not an Adventure

Helene Fouquet is reports for Bloomberg about France politics. She’s not an Internet guru, she does not permeate social media or even newspaper syndication with her presence. She works for Bloomberg. If you search for 2 hours on Google, you’ll find her byline attached to dozens of articles authored by other people. In the NATO reportage above, I wonder at why she was even given credit on this piece? There is no big WHAMO France insinuation, other than to announce the upcoming elections. Fouquet is a bit representative, I guess, of the average Bloomberg rank and file, just doing her job pecking out news from France. All that can be said from observing her articles and her Tweets is that she leans far to the left toward Obama, and directly into the Bloomberg party line. In a way, she is also representative of the biggest danger of usurped press freedom. The 9 to 5 throng that just goes along, never making any waves at all, this is one big reason our world is in a mess. Maybe I am wrong about the reporter, but the point of fence riders and hangers on is well made here. “It’s just a job” has covered graveyards of sins.

Oh Kay!

Isobel Finkel is a Bloomberg reporter from Istanbul. Whatever else she does/is, Stars and Stripes parrots her Bloomberg news/opinion frequently. The Daily Sabah says Finkel and Bloomberg Turkey Bureau Chief Benjamin Harvey bend the truth in opposition to the Erdogan regime in Turkey. The funny thing about Finkel is, she seems to have come into existence in 2013 form out of nowhere. Bloomberg from the “get go”, the reporter seems to have no journalistic or academic resume outside the Bloomberg world. Andrew Finkel, of New York Times notoriety, is another reporter with the same last name, shares her stuff on Twitter too? Andrew also wrote for The Economist, and other corporate owned media. He’s the author of Turkey: What Everyone Needs to Know®, he is also the father of Isobel. The long and the short of Finkel starts with his involvement with Freedom House (See CIA and USAID entanglements), and ends with whatever grant he received from the National Endowment for Democracy and the Reagan-Fascell Democracy Fellows Program.

In summary, I’ve made the distinctive case for the US State Department, the CIA, suspicious NGOs, and even direct support for influencing journalists many times. By now, only those deeply inflicted with the propaganda worm of western journalism will even argue, the undue influence levied onto our “truth” these days. The three journalists framed in this argument are representative of hundreds and hundreds force fed, induced, and coerced into either unwittingly, or knowingly spreading dangerous lies to the public. Whether they be innocent or outright paid agents of this false message is less important, than their dramatic impact on supposedly free societies from Turkey to Australia and back. While Radio Liberty proclaims armies of Kremlin trolls roaming the landscape to do propaganda evil… the real trolls and liars prepare the world for another world war. And this is my bone of contention with all of them. Their interests cannot lead to peace.

“It’s just a job”, this is how mediocre people justify doing less than the extraordinary. A livelihood, the necessity of it hides a wealth of sins. Not everybody has to be Don Quixote. But a reporter has a moral obligation to seek out the truth. As for the grant takers and think tank speakers, and their Amazon books, they serve as examples for more of the same. They evangelize what they destroy with every check George Soros of the CIA writers. The US Federal Reserve, printing all that “truth” for you and me to read. Our truth is printed out, like crisp, clean, dollars bills from Washington.

Somebody prove me wrong.

Putin Relieved to Learn: Old People Are the New Evil!

July 7, 2016 by Phil Butler Leave a Comment

God save the Queen! If the recent Brexit vote is all the catastrophe EU proponents say it is, the monarchy is surely doomed. Wait! Now that I think about it, it may be high time the house of Windsor fell. Maybe the whole western house of cards has to fall, in order for there to be a sustainable future for our children. Here’s some notes on why Brexit should lead to Worldexit. Putin must be relieved to know, he’s now joined by a couple of billion old folks.

They say the “older generation” of Brits high jacked the future of younger people in Britain when the vote to leave the EU was cast. “They” being self serving, fully owned, sellouts to this dysfunctional system of interlaced governments we live under today. The Hillary Clinton zombies over there in California, the brainless consumerist junkies being transfused for their dopamine, instant gratification addiction, they are the ones we elders are subjugating! Or so they whine and bitch and cry. Like the little toddlers they are, getting all grown up is an epic journey for them. And by God the Clintons of the world take advantage of them for it. Brexit was a decision to put a foot down on the ground, for this merry-go-round carnival ride of idiotic, destructive, and impossible policy we have been on. I cannot even begin to be bombastic enough here. We are so fucked…

Brexit is best seen from the perspective of “who is against it”. I read the most telling report on this yesterday, but I can no longer find it. What the story told of, was just who is fighting so hard to see that Brexit never happens. The Queen of England did not want it to happen. Goldman Sachs did not want it to happen. George Soros did not want Brexit to take place. Barack Obama warned on the dangers. Secretary of State John Kerry even suggests it can be overturned. And these are the biggest reasons we all should call for the “big exit”. These people have raped our world, set us at odds with one another, killed millions, and they have set many more millions adrift. They robbed our treasury, then made us pay ourselves back when Wall Street was bailed out. And the story goes on.

Listen to Soros here. The man sounds like some escaped Nazi war criminal. He proclaims that “we know what needs to be done”…. If these psychopaths knew how to fix things, why are they not fixed?
Goldman Sachs wants Britain in the EU for obvious reasons. GS value dropped another 7% on the news Brexit advocates won. GS has lost a third of its value in the last year. They are bleeding their investors’ money. You will recall, Goldman Sachs took bailout money, and paid its execs tens of millions after the crisis of 2008. You will also recall, it was GS that was partly responsible for the Greece mess. Hillary Clinton is their candidate…
Barack Obama, the worst president in US history, has tried to influence the Brexit vote from the beginning. He went so far as to threaten the British people. The man who said we have to “twist arms” when people don’t agree, the drone killing chief executive, is owned by Soros and the bankers. This is common knowledge.
The Queen is painted as the ever composed monarch, so above it all that the background sounds of smooching and kissy-kissy from loyal media subjects is the only thing heard from Windsor. But the New Yorker has the skinny, the United Kingdom is done, and poor Queen Elizabeth must watch her empire dwindle further. What a shambles monarchs have made of our world.
And the millennial generation? The ones who scarcely voted on Brexit at all? Well, only 36% of these kids of rocket scientists bothered to vote, when overall turnout was over 70%. And now they are blaming older people (parents?) for??? Not voting for them, I guess. Read this Washington Post nincompoop diatribe about how being able to use a USB stick is a requirement for citizenship (you read that correctly).

I could continue, right down the line, framing how ultra liberal smart phone junkies and Orwellian business pukes stand on Brexit. But I must stop with this opening of the aforementioned Washington Post piece:

“Today has been a day of bitterness, resentment and betrayal for British millennials like me. Overnight, my generation has lost the right to call ourselves Europeans, as well as the right to live, love and work in the 27 other countries of the European Union.”

Lauren Razavi is representative of a generation fully empowered to do anything, and mostly spoiled beyond any reasonable hope of being redeemed any time soon. The girl is intelligent, well written, and like so many of this generation, naïve in the extreme. Compared to the “flower power” generation of my own youth, the new yuppies are by far more dangerous. Razavi will end up as publisher of some corporate news entity in the future, no doubt. I am familiar with how the digital crowd can cause otherwise intelligent talents to “mutate”, and Lauren working at Google for a spell has to have some negative effects on her opinions. Her co-founded of a content strategy agency called Flibl, virtually ensures she fully vested in whatever the digital forces of evil care to point at. Every techie I know, almost every media person in the western world, is so influenced by what Google wants, what corporate media wants. Ms. Razavi’s moaning about being betrayed is meant to churn up other bet wetting over the disenfranchising of youth!!! And somebody gave her the Washington Post to piss and moan out the window of! Don’t fret though Lauren, you are in smart company. My pals in California cannot admit either, that the heads of companies like IBM, Oracle, and others are old farts too. So the money and success comes from the same place after all.

Content strategists, boy do I know my share of those. I wonder if Razavi’s company’s recent content efforts in collaboration with 3st kommunikation, on Smart Urbanism for Haus Invest have anything to do with her vehemence against us old folks who destroyed her future by voting “what’s next”? Did the Brexit vote by us dinosaurs foil any plans for Haus Invest? This article assures investors they are protected on Hausinvest der Commerz Real in the UK even with the pound dropping like a rock. Yikes. You don’t mean to tell me bankers and investors hold sway over media? Mario Schüttauf, fund manager of the real estate funds of Commerz Real Hausinvest assures investors further with a recent comment:

“The Brexit means the planned exit of Britain a step backwards for the development of the EU and a total phase of reorientation.”

So he joins Hillary Clinton and George Soros, along with all my Silicon Valley geek buddies, in opposing the will of the people in the UK? Opps, sorry, the will of the old folks in the UK, I mean. And poor Ms. Razavi falls victim to the wiles of the predatory elite.

With more than 110 properties (PDF) and approximately 9.4 billion euros in assets under management, Haus Invest is one of the largest real estate funds in Europe. 105 of those properties are in Europe, and 9 of which (2014) are in Britain. The Brit investments reaped the second highest return for 2014 at about 9.5%, compared to over 12% in Turkey, and 5.5% in Germany.

Dr. Andreas Muschter, Chief Executive Officer, Commerz Real

Taking the gloves off here, Dr. Andreas Muschter (above), CEO of Commerz Real AG, stands to lose a ton of investors if Brexit leads to a prolonged slump in the British market. These Frankfurt bankers, and I know several along with their Luxembourg counterparts, are in the business of yield. With negative yield a real operational nightmare for conservative Germans, Brexit is a horror story.

So here we have a snapshot of who is really against Britain and the rest of us choosing another path. The failures we have seen over the last decade, have been a huge win for these investor types. And where do you, the normal person assume their “win” came from? Who has paid for the billionaire’s jaunt into profitability, amid the war and chaos and austerity we suffer?

Charlton Heston looking at the Soylent Green conveyor belt

Vested interests, no matter how innocent they may appear, have empowered a new race of corporate predators. Washington Post scribblers, techies in gleeful giddiness over a gift of an iPhone or USB stick capability, they give fuel to the worst and most greedy financiers this world has ever produced. The new Nazis of this world will soon have younger generations melting their parents down for food. The movie “Soylent Green” from 1973 comes to mind. In the final scene, Charlton Heston eclaims; “The ocean’s dying, plankton’s dying, it was people, Soylent Green is people!”

I do not think our underprivileged youth will be chopping themselves up for food, once Earth’s resources are finally depleted by the Clintons and their bosses. As for my British fellow dinosaurs, it may be time to get our guns.

What Should Be the Fate of the Bilderbergs?

July 5, 2016 by Phil Butler 1 Comment

I found a story buried beneath ten tons of garbage today. Brilliantly revealing, is the scathing photo essay on The Guardian by Charlie Skelton, with gripping images by Hannah Borno from 2014. Looking at their coverage of the notorious Bilderberg summit in retrospect, we can now see the sad shape of dirty geo-strategy business. Skelton nailed the elite warmongers and money grubbing psychos we live and die for aptly calling Bilderberg 2014:

“A gathering of those who stand to make a killing out of knowing where and when the bombs might fall, how many and on whom.”

For those of us researching, reporting, and begging the world to see the truth of Ukraine and the Donbass, the debacle that is Bilderberg is a resounding opera of evil caricatures. NATO bosses, the US military establishment, great big business, lords, ladies, and supposed gentlemen dressed up and under guard… All that was missing at the Marriott hotel in Copenhagen was a dark an ominous cloud with big red horns, and evil Satanic eyes looming over the city’s “Little Mermaid” statue on the harbor. There are no words, but somehow Skelton seems to utter a soliloquy to accompany the damnable scenery Borno captures with her camera.

General Breedlove, the desk jockey commander who many say tried to incite a war with Russia – now the hypocrite tells media we need a Russia reset

I am not even sure how I missed this iconic reportage back then. Perhaps the last unbiased CNN report from the region caught my attention when the Donetsk Airport fiasco began. Maybe this rare CNN piece’s cousin over at Forbes caught my eye? Or maybe somebody is already reshaping the historyffo of mainstream media reporting on those events? As I “Google” the term “Ukraine” now, and set the custom date to May, 2014, it’s amazing how many moderate results appear!

This is amazing because in May of 2014, finding something unbiased about the Ukraine mess was near impossible. I am led to recall my own participation in the dissenting view, my becoming an analyst to show the other side of this horrible story. Even if Google conspired to help rework media history though, finding articles like this TIME one will always be possible. Those damnable Russkies, doing all that “dirty work” down yonder in Ukraine, you recall the US State Department line I know. “Meet the Cossack ‘Wolves’ Doing Russia’s Dirty Work in Ukraine”, it is emblematic of the “big lie” that started a brand new Cold War with Russia.

My readers and colleagues are fully aware, of the big business people behind the slaughter of innocent civilians in what became known as Novorossiya (which from the Russian is Новоро́ссия, or Romanian: Noua Rusie, or literally New Russia). Some reading this will not know much about the regions east and south of Kiev. Primarily Russian speaking these people are. So, the new Washington backed Kiev regime announcing Russian language’s demise, only days after having taken power — well, imagine Russia taking over Texas, banning English and making Spanish the official language. Crime and the Donbass got the message clearly, and begged Vladimir Putin for help. This is irrefutable, the truth, and the simple fact of the matter of what happened from the Russian perspective.

NATO's former head mashed up into a Fonzi photo - Happy Days NOT — NATO’s former head mashed up into a Fonzi photo – Happy Days NOT

On the Bilderberg perspective, we have goddamned killers and soulless profiteers. Now that US supreme allied commander in Europe, General Philip Breedlove has been forced to resign over leaked emails where he plotted a NATO conflict with Russia, the picture of collusion and graft, of merciless men and women using us all, it becomes ever more clear. Breedlove, who most of us characterized as a paper warrior from the start, was neck deep in the Bilderberg discussions, along with then NATO boss Anders Fogh Rasmussen (younger version above), who Charlie Skelton calls a miniature “Fonzi”, of hit TV show “Happy Days” fame. Just why human beings put pipsqueaks in charge of anything, is anybody’s guess, but Skelton hammers this evil little woodpecker on the head. God, for the chance to body slam such narcissistic clowns.

But my point here is, they were all there. Weapons makers, policy makers, war makers, the world’s worst evil doers, if only Zeus had any lightning bolts left, there could be peace on Earth for once in 50,000 years maybe! Yes, we should hate them if only for the blown to pieces kids of the Donbass. The children my Novorossiya pals like war-fighter Russell Bonner Bentley, or brave independent journalist Graham Phillips have shared with me, their truth is the only truth. You see the American side of this war horror story has no heroes or victims to speak of. BBC and Reuters cannot even drum up, a civilian population shelled in the night. There’s not blown to pieces kids west of Donetsk, you see. The one million refugees that fled President Poroshenko’s artillery were not from Kiev or Kharkiv, I know, I have friends there too. The artillery shells fall on the homes of people in pro-Russia territory.

But nobody tells you this.

A vice president’s son takes on a board role with one of Ukraine’s biggest natural gas companies. Some will remember the tiny flurry of reports on Joe Biden’s boy Hunter joining Burisma Holdings in April of 2014. The shady dealings did not rub off on Biden, or the Obama administration then, but they should have. The company’s big boss, Mykola Zlochevsky is on everybody’s most wanted list for corrupt practices, including Kiev’s. Speaking of “shady” deals and this Bilderberg meet-up of 2014, here’s some interesting news following that summit.

In October of 2014 attendee Saab announced an $800 million plus Gripen E fighter development contract
Saab also announced 36 Gripen NG fighter aircraft for the Brazilian Air Force about the same time
Saab was also mentioned in a key drone development program with BAE, Finmeccanica SpA, and others in the European Neuron drone project.
Spanish activists question the role of Bilderberg attendee Mercedes Millán Rajoy, calling her a spy. There is speculation about dossiers she’s seen carrying, depicted in The Guardian photos. Then days after the summit King Juan Carlos abdicates?
Key Bilderberg attendee in Copenhagen, KKR Global Institute is where former CIA Director David Petraeus migrated to. In July 2014, the director of policy and research at the KKR Global Institute, Neil Brown (quote below)penned this report “announcing” the west’s competition with Russia for the Southstream pipeline.
Charlie Skelton’s Bilderberg report makes special mention of Airbus Thomas Enders. It’s probably just coincidence (number 2000) that Airbus Defence & Space was assisting in the investigation of the shooting down of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17 later on that year.
A report by Oakland Institute released in July 2014 reveals Monsanto, Cargill, and DuPont, and other corporate investors swooping in to grab up Ukraine’s agricultural operations. The Rothschild interests and many others were also implicated.

From the shadows, Barack Obama gives Ukraine's Poroshenko his marching orders — From the shadows, Barack Obama gives Ukraine’s Poroshenko his marching orders

And as the saying goes, “the list could go on, and on.” Land speculation to the business of making killing machines, all we glean of chaos on our planet today can be traced to these elites and their henchmen. As corny as it sounds, the seeds the Rockefellers, Rothschilds, and even the Vanderbilts planted generations ago, sprouted the horrendous weeds before us today. Neil Balfour, he is a direct descendant of Cornelius Vanderbilt, and his Landkom International PLC owns hundreds of thousands of acres of Ukraine farmland. Today the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) is doing it’s PR best to promote organic farming investments.

“The most viable alternative route for natural gas supplies to Europe is the planned Southern Gas Corridor, which is made up of three pipelines. The project will include the South Caucasus Pipeline, which is currently being enlarged, running from the Caspian Sea to Turkey. From Turkey, the Trans-Anatolian Pipeline (TANAP) and the Trans-Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) will transport Caspian natural gas to Austria. To undermine the Southern Gas Corridor, Russia has undertaken the South Stream Pipeline, which would bypass Azerbaijan and Turkey to terminate in Austria. However, the economic viability of South Stream is in question and, according to Ms. Assenova, the project unlikely to be completed.” — from Energy Security Concerns in South Eastern Europe – by Neil Brown —

Henry Kissinger has been a part of it all since before Nixon, Chile, the Middle East, Yugoslavia, part of it all. He was at Bilderberg 2014 too.

Evercore investment’s CEO, Roger Altman was in Copenhagen, and in late 2014 his firm advised big pharmaceuticals that the ruble fall would not affect their win. Douglas Flint of HSBC was there, and later in the year that investment group’s predictions of the assault on the Russian ruble came true. But like I said, I could go on and on. The point is all too clear. These notorious elites really do run our everyday lives and Earth’s wars too. And yes, they do make me physically sick to my stomach too.

Vanya Voronov was air lifted to Moscow, some say on the orders of Putin himself, after having been hit by URKOP artillery fire in east Ukraine. Today this amazing boy wears a smile still, a true hero of a people’s fight with imperialism and the profit mongers of the west. The BBC never so much as mentioned this boy.

My Mom used to have this saying when we were kids. She was a southern lady, and like Scarlett O’Hara of Gone With the Wind fame, she could be a bit, callous and cruel sometimes. “That scallywag ain’t worth the powder and lead it would take to blow his brains out,” she’d exclaim. “Not worth killing”, she’d sometimes proclaim. If the low-down wheeler dealer was low enough, that is. To these people, a little kid with one limb left, sitting alone at a victory day parade in Moscow, he’s nothing. Vanya Voronov (above), like hundreds of thousands of other children in the path of these sociopaths, he’s just something stuck to the bottom of their expensive shoes.

But I don’t think we should kill them, they are not worth it, just like Mom said. But dragging them out into the streets, naked, and tarring and feathering them one-by-one? Yeah, this seems more fitting. Oh, and confiscating their cumulative wealth to distribute to the poor…. Yes, I am for that.

When do we start? This is my final remark.

The Ultimate “Stupid” List of Western Propagandists [Part I]

July 3, 2016 by Phil Butler Leave a Comment

Today I awoke to still more lying idiots intent on dumbing down the people even further. So, I decided to start a series to spotlight the dumb leading the dumber, with the absolute dumbest being those continually believing in mainstream media at all. Here’s the first issue of “The Ultimate “Stupid” List of Western Propagandists”.

Bezos (right) meeting Ash Carter at the Pentagon about the Defense Innovation Advisory Board. (Public Domain)

The Dummy Editorial Board – Washington Post

The Washington Post is owned by Jeff Bezos. The Wall Street Journal pointed out in 2015, how the Amazon billionaire is taking an “active role” in running the newspaper. Since Publisher Fred Ryan told the WSJ he and Bezos have planned a “long runway” for the WP, we can only assume they are the dumbest media owners on Earth, here’s why.

If Bezos’s team is looking at long term growth for the WP, lying to the public and propaganzing what should be news, this will put an end to this newspaper. Readers don’t need another tabloid, and the editorial board sputters nonsense on the pages of this once revered broadsheet. Here is your proof.

The headline “Obama retreats from Putin in Syria — again”, it begs many questions. First and foremost, “Is the WP editorial board admitting Obama is at war with Putin and Russia?” Secondly, the Post’s editorial board thinks America should go full spectrum war and throw the kitchen sink into arming Al Nusra, Al Queda and other sworn enemies of Syria’s Assad. Bezos and his minions don’t even care any more if you know, they are full scale Zionists, willing to do anything and everything to end it all in Damascus. Read the article, it is “exhibit one”.

Exhibit two is the editorial board’s fantasy ideas about Ukraine. “On Ukraine, the E.U. should not follow Russia’s script” from May 27^th, it takes readers for granted. The board uses a photo of the psychopath UKROP pilot who gave away the positions of press people, so that right wing killers from Aidar Battalion could kill them. Aidar Battalion is known to terrorize the region under their control, first of all. Secondly, the people in the Donbass are being shelled mercilessly by UKROP artillery even under the ceasefire in effect. This is incontrovertible, and the WP knows it. You don’t.

Bezos is in cahoots with some of the most ruthless business people on this world. The Washington Post editorial board has no alternative but to parrot whatever is in the interests of these people. Look at the list collaborating with Bezos on the “Breakthrough Energy Coalition”. The Washington Post has zero credibility, and the “long term” landing of the paper will be incineration by frustrated readers. I can show 100 contravening or misguidedly wrong editorials by this board. The WP wants Americans to believe that Cossacks are fighting Putin’s opposition in Russia for Christ sake. With Nazis and left wing psychos stabbing one another in California, the WP supports Pussy Riot’s rights to shout obscenities in church services in Russia! The WP is crap, and stupid. Rating: 10 of 10 on the El Estúpido Scale.

The rainbow army — Some claim Barack Obama is “slithering” out of the White House, intent on doing as much damage as possible before leaving.

New York Times Editorial Board – “OUT THERE”

At one time, the world turned to the New York Times for the truth in news. I am not exactly sure when the newspaper turned into the National Enquirer tabloid in a fancy suit, but it certainly did. Taking the gloves off is long overdue here. The NYTs has been owned and run by some really powerful Jewish people since the beginning. But then, really powerful Jewish people own just about all of the media these days. Despite the seeming implication, I somehow do not believe Jewish people grow up wanting to spend their lives running newspapers and movie studios, but maybe I am wrong. Anyway, in order to avoid being called bad names here, I just take note of the obvious for the sake of transparency. My evidence on this newspaper’s clear decline is already in print.

To save you and me a lot of time, let me just cut through this editorial board’s voluminous list of erroneous and misleading articles to “Transgender Troops Protected at Last” – yeah, it’s time to go there, and I know I speak for hundreds of millions.

Sexual confusion, it’s something all of us grow up with. Coming to terms with being 10, 12, 30, girl, boy, a patriarchal figure, sports hero, or ballet dancer, it’s just part of being human. Kind of like dealing with having a big nose, or two left feet, you understand I know. Repression, liberation, to take Prozac or not, we all wrestle with whether or not to put on lipstick while driving (or in my case eating a Big Mac and driving). Some of you sense where I am going with this, good for you.

One absolute place we do not need to be confused is on the battlefield. Take enlisted US Army psychopaths, for an instance. Despite the fact all US service people are supposed to end up trained killers (like my CO used to call us), confusion over one’s identity is not something that can be “trained out” of one’s comrades. What if your buddy in the fox hole with you gets a schizophrenic attack in a firefight? Suddenly the enemy is you! This wild scenario begs the question; “What sort of ephemeral cues warn against a soldier’s stability?” To be blunt here, “How can an army expect a soldier to identify the enemy, when he/she/it is at odds within itself?” Shucks, maybe I am just too old and provincial. But I cannot help but envision an army of sexually transmuted US soldiers charging the front lines of a new Moscow offensive! Vladimir Putin’s forces will be left with two choices. Mow them down in utter horror, or turn and run to somewhere deep in the Urals. Hate me if you will, but good God America is messed up. The New York Times is another 10 of 10 on the El Estúpido Scale.

Daniel P. Vajdich – Smart Becomes Dangerously Dumb

This guy is an adviser. The Nonresident Senior Fellow at the Future Europe Initiative, Vajdich was a former Senate Foreign Relations Committee staffer too. He writes editorial for quite a number of A key aspect for understanding Vajdich is his ownership of a company called Yorktown Solutions, that provides key strategic advice for “investor” types. Contrary to my original assessment of Vajdich as some kind of nincompoop, he is in fact astute and wily. His idiotic editorial is a function, not of ignorance, but of utter contempt for readers. He is an arrogant sort, we have come to know these last few years. Vajdich played a role to try and get the US Congress to authorize lethal assistance to Ukraine. He also “advised” on funneling billions into Kiev’s coffers to bolster the regime’s efforts to kill citizens and soldiers in the East of Ukraine. The sanctions on Russia now, the ones killing EU businesses, are in part his fault. Just how somebody like this gets peerage in western media, is beyond me.

His arrogance, and lack of credibility (El Estúpido ratio) was illustrated in “Why Putin’s Turkey Sanctions Will Boomerang”, a casual rant that was proven all wrong just the other day. And this post on US News & World Report indemnifies him further, as one of the most prolific NATO mouthpieces in the world, which stamps him with the seal of the US military industrial complex. If my readers are searching for a warmongering, soulless psychopath bent on destroying anything in the way of a new Cold War, this guy is the super-villian wannabe. This post on The Hill promotes Brussels doing an inquisition on any EU state that drifts from the NATO center. Get this, the “EU must halt spread of illiberal democracy” … Yeah, let me hear a collective “WTF is that?” The guy followed “Morning Defense” from Politico first, and the US Department of Defense second on his Twitter profile, if I go on to social media profile the dude.

Given his “Top Secret” credential by the US Department of Defense, it’s safe to assume Vajdich is some sort of grey matter spook in reality. I don’t want to embellish him to much, but it is interesting to find somebody so young, with so many links to political candidates AND to international relations with Russia etc. If I had to bet money, I’d say the fact Vajdich received a Boren Fellowship is significant in understand what he is up to. Boren grants demand recipients spend a year working for agencies like the NSA. The fact he worked on Mitt Romney’s campaign, presidential hopeful Scott Walker’s 2016 campaign, and later Ted Cruz’s campaign too… Well, a Hollywood writer would suit Vajdich up as some kind of political mole for those behind Washington’s magic curtain. The fact Vajdich is oh so involved, shows the arrogance of ultimate and dangerously dumb media. Don’t these publishers even research who is speaking to their readers? Vajdich gets a rating of 9 of 10 on the El Estúpido scale by virtue of at best appearing so evil, and at worst for being so near criminally ambitious. Good luck with that career Dan. You are the poster boy for everything that is wrong with young policy makers. Editor’s note: This month’s nominee for rising dumbest newcomer!

A young Mikhail Khodorkovsky superimposed over 1977 Radio Free Europe studio – the idea would have seemed preposterous back then

The Ignoramously Famous Interpreter

Where do I begin? The Interpreter is owned by ousted Russian oligarch Mikhael Khodorkovsky. I could make 1000 points of darkness about this fellow, but his most interesting attribute is his kinship with the aforementioned media dummies. Isn’t it interesting how the true Russian mob, the likes of the Henry Kissingers and Jacob Rothschilds of the world, and all these other Putin detractors fall in line with one another? Or is this just a crazy bit of Phil Butler logic? The man who pillaged the Russian people’s wealth more than any other under Yeltsin, he hates Putin just like the Obama administration spooks, the Zionists, and the corporate 1% do! Ah, but you may not know who this Khodorkovsky fellow is.

The Interpreter is a propaganda tool, a personal one for Khodorkovsky. Not unlike the Washington Post or the New York Times, the media arm of Khodorkovsky’s “Open Russia”, The Interpreter is actually as good as its word – it helps people learn about Russia under Khodorkovsky’s interpretation. As for Khodorkovsky himself, his theft of the legacy of Russian citizens in the Yeltsin period is incontrovertible. Yukos Oil, and many other companies, were leveraged away from the people by this friend of the Rothschilds and Kissingers. Then when Vladimir Putin’s administration reined these mafiosos in, powerful enemies were made. Khodorkovsky was released from prison and then went into exile. George Soros and other “associates” of my “dumb bunch” here, they were banished too. Putin’s Russia flourished for a time, until the most recent economic/military interventions… This is all abundantly clear.

In this recent piece on The Interpreter, readers can glean the essence of this mean spirited magazine. Smart readers will question; “If Putin’s Russia is so under his boot, how come so many media outlets can attack him so openly?” But then, there are lots of stupid people in the world. Most of those that can read, turn the pages of the news and media I describe herein. “A Baker’s Dozen of Neglected Russian Stories –Volume 38”, is just plain stupidity ad nauseam. It portrays Putin in a portrait, dressed like Leonid Brezhnev. Khodorkovsky’s venom is yellowish and sticky, it clings to everything he touches. His business ideals are transparent as water though:

“I saw business as a game….It was a game in which you wanted to win but losing was also an option. It was a game in which hundreds of thousands of people came to work in the morning to play with me.”

In his personal dogma we see how unsportsmanlike he is. Putin beat him, and even a pardon could not moderate the man former BP boss Lord Browne said was “too powerful” – now get this. The most powerful man in the energy business thought Khodorkovsky was out of bounds powerful. But this the utter dumbness of all Khodorkovsky media machinations is revealed in the aforementioned The Intercept piece. If Vladimir Putin is more repressive than the last Soviet boss, then how come Khodorkovsky or sympathizers like former chess master Garry Kasparov are still breathing? And toward the “collusion” I am suggesting, as of January of 2016, The Interpreter became a special project of Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty. Let me let you chew on that for a moment.

Dumb and Dumber

Daniel P. Vajdich was a researcher at the Carnegie Center Moscow, he’s a fellow at the Atlantic Council along with The Interpreter editor Michael Weiss. James L. Jones, who was previously chairman of the Atlantic Council, stepped down in order to serve as President Obama’s new National Security Advisor. This Global Research post is damning, where the Atlantic Council’s purposes are concerned. Scanning this and other reports, the name of notorious manipulators like George Soros, Zbigniew Brzezinski, the aforementioned former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger (see Yukos Oil), the Rockefeller Brothers and many others appear over and over. Vajdich is guilty of “dumbness” by sheer association.

As for the New York Times, this Global Research piece condemns the paper further. Stephen Lindeman says:

“Times articles, commentaries and editorials feature all propaganda all the time, managed news misinformation and Big Lies, suppressing hard truths on issues mattering most – especially on war and peace.”

On the Washington Post, there is a daily reminder that big business billionaires gotta have some press there. But this Alternet article by Dean Baker speaks of WP divisiveness and economic lies. This Salon piece by Robert Reich calls Washington Post editorial board liars. Mike Adams, TownHall contributor and book author, accuses the editorial board of being Monsanto puppets. And I know not too many people out there have thought about what Amazon means to information, publishing, and press freedom. Ah, but that sort of talk is conspiratorial. In 2014, the New York Times dropped dime on Bezo’s Amazon:

“No firm in American history has exerted the control over the American book market — physical, digital and secondhand — that Amazon does.”

A recent meetup between Bill Gates and presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton

Finally, our list of “dumbest” media entities is capitalized by The Interpreter and its Russian Mafioso boss man, Mikhael Khodorkovsky. The man accused of pillaging from the entire population of Russia, billions. The guy some say ordered the killings of local mayors and landowners who contested his dealings, he’s somehow best pals now with what was Radio Free Europe! My question is, “How in hell does that even happen?” Maybe it is not the Khodorkovsky’s or Bezos or Soros types of the world who are the dumb ones? Or maybe they are dumb, and we are just dumber? Wait a minute, is Khodorkovsky Jewish?

Holy Cow! He is. But I mentioned Bill Gates (above) in this story too, and some other fabulously rich people. Even though some say Gates is a kind of Crypto Jew slash Pseudo Christian, there is no proof yet there (not that anyone should care). So how does Zionism play a role, unless the evil doers in the world are rich first, and Jewish business people just happen to be rich more often? Now I am confused (dumber) too! I did not expect to discover this Zion connection.

In all seriousness, Judaism nor Orthodoxy, not even Islam has the slightest thing to do with our predicament really. It is the people who use these religious institutions who have consorted with the real “Devil”… The disservice each of these people do to all of us, it’s inestimable. Faith and religion, for most of the people involved in today’s chaos, it’s just another political lever for them. Ambition, blind ambition, and narcissistic ambivalence, this is their motto and moniker. Their bastardizing of our religions and beliefs is their greatest crime. Israel, Russia, America, these places are not full of whacko killers ready to heap more misery. But they are places full of dumb leadership. Funny thing, the one place trying to clean this up, its condemned as resident evil. Putin cleans up Russia by sweeping out the Khodorkovsky types, and our media heaps on the lies.

And there is world stupidity in a nutshell. Just add your local lying henchman to the list, and let’s get our pitchforks and plowshares ready. Until next time, let’s get smarter to defeat the dumbest of these dumbbells.

Eastern Versus Western Crony Capitalists

June 30, 2016 by Phil Butler Leave a Comment

If you are interested at all in global politics and media, I want to show you something. No doubt you have heard, western mainstream media is being used as a propaganda tool against America’s business competition. Well an article on Fortune yesterday, proves the corporations own college professors too.

The author bio at the bottom of a Fortune article entitled, “Vladimir Putin’s China Visit Put His Weakness on Full Display” reads:

“Minxin Pei is the Tom and Margot Pritzker ’72 Professor of Government at Claremont McKenna College and a non-resident senior fellow at the German Marshall Fund of the United States”

To the average Fortune reader, this will obviously appear as a normal accolade/short-bio. For foreign policy analysts who are objective, the fact a Russophobe Washington sellout is a professor at all is scary. The kids at Claremont McKenna College are under the tutelage of someone who is supposed to be an intellectual. Minxin Pei may be smart, but his rhetoric and his associations show that “educating” is not what he is up to. The former Carnegie Endowment associate demonstrates not only a mule-like tendency to bray out nonsense about Russia’s failing system, but a meanness one does not usually associate with professors. Russophobic for sure, the learned Dr. Pei is a China expert who hates China too. As frightening as his diatribe toward Putin and Russia is though, the fact he is not alone at the German Marshall Fund is horrifying.

Minxin Pei’s most recent fairytale portrays Russia’s Putin as a lap dog begging at the table of Chinese President Xi Jinping. To wit:

“It is thus an uncommon—but unsurprising—sight to see Putin, the swaggering strongman, perform the rituals of a clear supplicant to his senior partner, the Chinese President Xi Jinping.”

This article was published yesterday, June 30, 2016. Contrary to Minxin Pei’s lucid wish though, Vladimir Putin took it upon himself to extend Russia’s embargo on western food, not for 6 months, but until the end of 2017. Dr. Pei and his fellows at Washington think tanks, they live in a peculiar, frustrated, and toxic world of confusion, obviously. As the EU starts its meltdown, with Putin policies winning in every corner of the world, the best and smartest America has….. Well, I just hope their payoffs are not results based. Russia will be stronger because of these sanctions, and it is the United States that will end up isolated, if Washington continues this folly.

Finally, if Pei’s position were simply wrong, then one might write it off as part of human nature. But the scholars at German Marshall Fund are not stupid people. Take this article from 2015 by Andrew Moravcsik. “Success in Ukraine Could Threaten Western Unity” proved to be a crystal ball Washington never looked into. The shift in policy from one of “civilian power strategy in favor of NATO military deterrence” has doomed Washington’s new Cold War plans. While these think tank “geniuses” all hate Putin as a matter of political cronyism, their advice to the psychopaths in charge of US policy is not always bad. Moravcsik gave the recipe for success, and nobody listened. Now Merkel and Germany are reeling, with an exit avalanche up-swell at their feet. And Putin has thrown Brussels another lifeline taking it upon himself to extend sanctions… What kind of super-hero leader does such a thing?

So Russia subservient to China, in any way, shape, or form, is ridiculous. It is in China’s best (and only) interest to befriend Russia and other neighbors, at the dawn of a new Asian age. The irony of Dr. Pei authoring the book “China’s Crony Capitalism The Dynamics of Regime Decay” is pungent, as I will briefly illustrate below.

The German Marshall Fund is a breeding ground for US State Department policy evangelists past and future. The think tank is “lousy” with new world order dinosaurs and new chicks, intent on disruption and the end profit game. The recent Brussels Summit was chock full of Soros deciples like Sonja Licht, President of the Belgrade Fund for Political Excellence. She was Soros’s right hand gal when Yugoslavia was taken down. Then there was NATO deputy Lee Litzenberger, and Edward Lucas of the Rothschild family’s Economist. Like I said, the German Marshall Fund wreaks of vested NGO presence, sellout journalism, capitalist failures, and the officials of the EU on board the gravy train.

Turning back to Dr. Minxin Pei, he is a poster child for the grant system that props up academic sellouts. The $100,000 MacArthur Foundation Grant is one, and the Smith Richardson Foundation has given hundreds of thousands to Pei over the years. In her book, “CIA Off Campus: Building the Movement Against Agency Recruitment and Research”, author Ami Chen Mills names the latter foundation as one supporting CIA causes and policy change contributor. Not surprisingly, the book, “Universities in the Business of Repression: The Academic-military-industrial Complex in Central America”, by Jonathan Feldman, paints American academia in the same light as I, a festering spook playground sold out to the money interests. And in the ever-more curious world of investments, it is the Smith Richardson Foundation that beckons with a big, red, flag of associations.

Peter L. Richardson is the Chairman and President of Smith Richardson Foundation Inc. He is a 59 year old director at ING Advisers, which operates underneath an upper shell called ING Aeltus Investment Management Inc., which has in turn been rebranded as simply “Voya”. It is the mutal funds in all this that lead us to the gist of my argument. The fact that the Voya Russia Fund manager Nathan Griffiths is having a tough time investing the $128 million fund in Russian stocks, all because of Vladimir Putin, it may explain one reason so many academics and media people are mad at the Russian president. I don’t have more time now to barbecue Richardson, or even Dr. Pei, but digging down deep into this story seems a worthy enterprise later on. If the reader will go to Muckety and research, it is easy to connect Richardson with the likes of Zbigniew Brzezinski and just about every hard core anti-Russia person on this planet. So I will rest my case for now, chiding the good Dr. Pei to provide evidence for his anti-Putin claims. Barking his master’s frustrated yelping is quite simply laziness in my view. After all, the man is being paid well for teaching the unwitting students at Claremont McKenna College, just how evil Russia is.
