75th Anniversary of the Beginning of the Siege of Leningrad

__________________________________

Today marked 75 years since the beginning of the siege of Leningrad by the fascists during the Great Patriotic War. The blockade lasted 872 days (from 8 September 1941 to 27 January 1944) and became one of the most tragic pages in the history of the Second World War. To memorialise this momentous occasion, we prepared a thematic collection:

A S Zaldostanov, the head of the Nochnye Volki (Night Wolves) MC is a friend of both President Putin and Patriarch Kirill. The USA and Canada have him on a sanctions list for supporting the return of the Crimea to the Rodina… he wasn’t a politician, he made no decisions, he simply endorsed the Crimean people’s decision to come home to the Motherland. That tells you much about the Anglo poseurs, doesn’t it? Here’s the sad part… most of the Anglo konvertsy in the Church support the Republican haters of our Motherland and Church. Don’t engage such ignorant filth in discussion… it’ll do no good. Oppose them and their demonic political notions… God wills it…

______________________________

Despite all the boasts of the Galician Uniates and their Anglo American puppeteers, Donetsk not only still stands, it threw back the Uniate murderers in disarray. It IS a HERO-CITY… it refused to buckle under to the “Free Market”, the Almighty Dollar, the Unia, and to Jesus™… it stood tall for Socialism, Almighty God, Orthodoxy, and Christ. It flies the Red Banner proudly… remember, the Galician Uniates marched under Hitler’s banner VOLUNTARILY… they murdered for the Nazis and they’ve never repented of it. That’s the choice… you can support Socialism, Social Justice, the Red Banner, and Christ (HH just DID give Gennady Andreyevich a high award), or you can support the Black Banner of Nihilism, the Republican Party, the Free Market, and Jesus™. One of these things is NOT like the other! It’s not even kinda the same!

EVIL or GOOD? That’s your choice… choose well…

Federation Council Decries Western “Interference” in the Ukraine

______________________________

On Wednesday, the Federation Council, the upper house of the Federal Assembly, called for an end to interference by Western politicians in Ukrainian internal affairs. The Federation Council resolution expressed “indignation at a number of Western politicians unceremoniously interfering … and consciously provoking destabilisation in the country”. Criticism of foreign influence on Ukrainian internal affairs appeared to be a reference to visits to Kiev, by a number of top EU and American politicians and diplomats. In December, veteran US Senator John McCain addressed a crowd of anti-government protesters in Kiev, pledging broad American support for the pro-EU movement. Earlier that same month, US Assistant Secretary of State for European and Eurasian Affairs Victoria Nuland visited the epicentre of the protest movement and handed out bread to demonstrators {how sweet… everyone knows how the EU and the USA subsidise the protests in trying to topple the legitimate government: editor}. In its resolution, the Federation Council blamed opposition groups for the outbreak of riots, calling them a part of a “well-organised campaign to discredit and overthrow the legitimate government. Pogroms and fire-setting in Kiev and other Ukrainian cities, the storming of an administrative building, aggressive actions against police that led to deaths and a significant amount of injured occur with the approval of those who’ve brought people to the streets”. The Council expressed “confidence that the fraternal Ukrainian people and their leadership would find a way to restore peace in the country”. On Tuesday, the Rada abrogated anti-protest laws and Ukrainian Prime Minister Azarov tendered his resignation to appease the opposition and prevent further street clashes.

Editor’s Note:

There’s not much solid news… but the oppos are being intransigent. I’ll say this… there’s much more going on than the Western news media blather reports. If Yanukovich doesn’t stay on, the country will break up, and, trust me, the West WON’T get the best parts. There are things happening as we speak that guarantee that. After all, the Supreme Soviet of the Autonomous Republic of the Crimea outlawed the Svoboda slimeballs (and it’s NOT going to backtrack). The West is in for a rude and abrupt awakening if it believes that it can destabilise the Ukraine and take the whole megillah. Sevastopol IS a Hero City…
