Russia Warns May Send Troops To Ukraine After Congress Unanimously Votes To Give Lethal Aid To Kiev

While the market, and America’s media, was focusing over the passage of the Cromnibus, and whether Wall Street would dump a few hundred trillion in derivatives on the laps of US taxpayers once again (it did), quietly and unanimously both houses passed The Ukraine Freedom Support Act of 2014, which authorizesproviding lethal assistance to Ukraine’s military” as well as sweeping sanctions on Russia’s energy sector.

The measure mandates sanctions against Rosoboronexport, the state agency that promotes Russia’s defense exports and arms trade. It also would require sanctions on OAO Gazprom (GAZP), the world’s largest extractor of natural gas, if the state-controlled company withholds supplies to other European nations (yes, the US is now in the pre-emptive punishment business, and is enforcing sanctions on a “what if” basis).

But while one may debate if additional sanctions will do much to impact a Russian economy which is already impaired due to the plunging ruble, the clear escalation is that unlike previously, when the US limited itself – at least on paper – to non-lethal assistance to the Ukraine, now the US is finally preparing to send in weapons, and potentially “military advisors” as well. We say “on paper”, because in late November hacked US documents revealed the extent of secret US “Lethal Aid” for the Ukraine army. And since America’s under-the-table support for Ukraine’s insolvent armed forces has been revealed, there is little point in pretending to keep a moral upper hand (especially in light of recent “other” revelations involving the US, most notably its intelligence services).

And as has happened for the entire duration of the second Cold War, any action by the US was promptly met with a just as provocative reaction by Russia. In this case, a leftist member of the Russian Duma said the US Senate’s decision to arm the Kiev regime should prompt ‘adequate measures’ from Russia, such as deploying military force on Ukrainian territory before the threat becomes too high.

In other words, in addition to the global energy meltdown which is about to send oil exporting nations into a state of shock matched only by owners of US High Yield energy bonds, the Ukraine conflict, which the algos and carbon-based Portfolio Manager forgot about, is about to re-escalate, with Russia now set to recreate the Crimea annexation after it officially sends its troops on Ukraine soil.

Putin has made several speeches warning the USSA and Obama concerning it’s overthrow of the duly elected Kiev Gov. (it may have been warranted I don’t know) and USSA punitive economic sanctions against Russia.
I think the NWO wants more War, period. The current scene seems a replay of the German- Russian part of WWII. As an American I abhor playing the “Nazi”, but we have descended into a crony capitalist-feral gov union in hell with riots ans subsequent losses in Liberty since 9/11, (and even before but not as quickly as the last 14years.)
Nothing seems able to Stop IT, sElections are worthless, “money” is worth less at best, heading to worthless, Polezi seem to be Gov Occupying forces rather than neighbors, communist inspired riots just like pre-war Germany leading to the “Law” being imposed by a Lawless Gov., and now the “foreign menace” arises in Russia again. (With China set to be the “winner” in any conflict)
Preparing with food stocked and self defense seems obvious, but sometimes it seems like sandbags in front of the tsunami. God bless and I’ll see you at the “festivities” or “travails”, it isn’t going to be nice either way.

We realistically can only control what “we can control”,obviously simple and redundant.
CYA.
