Ukraine Stocks Plunge To 18-Month Lows As Ex-President Warns Of Imminent “Civil War”

Following discussions with Merkel, demands to de-escalate tensions from Barrose, and threats of sanctions from President Obama. Ukraine’s President Yanukovych has gone on sick leave from “immense pshcological pressure.” Despite his exclamations that he’ll do everything for the sake of peace, he blames the opposition for “escalating the situation,” which fits, rather ominously with warnings from former presdent Leonid Kravchuk. As The BBC reportsUkraine’s first post-independence president warned the country is on the “brink of civil war”. While the Hyrvnia is not collapsing as much as it was (always the silver lining), money is running away from Ukraine stocks (at 18-month lows), bond term structure is inverted, and CDS are spiking back to recent highs over 1000bps.

The headlines suggest things are getting worse:

  • Ukraine’s Yanukovych Out Sick After Protesters Reject Amnesty
  • *UKRAINE’S YANUKOVYCH SAYS OPPOSITION ESCALATING SITUATION
  • *UKRAINE PRESIDENT SAYS GOVT HAS FULFILLED OBLIGATIONS: IFX
  • *UKRAINE PARLIAMENT FULFILLED CONDITIONS ON AMNESTY: YANUKOVYCH
  • *AUTHORITIES HAVE MET ALL OBLIGATIONS TO OPPOSITION: YANUKOVYCH

Global politicians are responding…

How We You Be Judged at Your Upcoming Heavenly Trial?

httpv://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mtEA4xpIjls

From YouTube:

If you boil frogs, they tend to notice and hop out of the hot water; but if you gradually turn up the heat, they don’t notice and get boiled anyway. Join Bill Whittle, as he examines how our society has become the boiling water, and how we stayed in the water because it was so incremental. Our freedoms, everything we hold dear, seems in jeopardy now–how will we be judged by the countless soldiers, and arguers for liberty, from our country’s history?

Sniper Basics For The SHTF Survivalist

God is not on the side of the big battalions, but on the side of those who shoot best – Voltaire

by Brandon Smith

For a long time sniper tactics have been consider by many, even in the military, to be akin to a kind of state designated “murder” rather than a legitimate combat strategy. Only in recent years has sniping achieved a certain level of recognition. Centuries of warfare have passed in which snipers were happily recruited for their skills, and then quickly swept under the rug and forgotten once conflict was over. Daniel Morgan and his crack-shot riflemen were instrumental in America’s revolutionary victory over the British. U.S. sharpshooters rained hell down on German troops from over 900 yards during WWI. Snipers have dominated the battlefield in every modern conflagration. Yet, regimented sniping schools were not standardized in the U.S. Army until 1987. All previous schools were abandoned within a few years of their establishment.

Why did it take so long for the sniper to be recognized as essential to victory? Perhaps because snipers are TOO effective, to the point that they become frightening to the establishment.

During the Finnish “Winter War” against the Soviet Union in which they were vastly outnumbered and outgunned, guerrilla tactics, which they called “Motti tactics”, were used to excellent effect. The Finnish devastated the Soviets using hit and run attacks, homemade and improvised weapons, and snipers. The most famous of these snipers was Simo Hayha.

Boehner Working with Obama to Ambush House Republicans on Bloomberg-backed Immigration Changes

Gun Owners of America

“Democrat control of Congress bodes well for oppressive gun laws, [and] a huge influx of newly legal voters from cultures where draconian government control over private firearm ownership is an unquestioned matter [helps]. Bloomberg can hardly be unaware of that.” — The Examiner, January 29, 2014

The good thing about anti-gun liberals in Washington is that they are pathologically incapable of keeping their mouths shut.

And, Wednesday morning, shortly before 9:00, MSNBC commentator Dick Gregory announced that House Speaker John Boehner, the day before, had told a private meeting of reporters that he had been talking with Barack Obama “a lot” about pushing immigration reform.

It’s pretty clear why Barack Obama wants a bill which would either legalize or grant citizenship to as many as 11.5 million people who, according to Latinos expressing their opinions in a Pew poll, would cast 88% of their votes for liberals like Barack Obama.

It’s also clear what Speaker Boehner has in mind:  If he sabotages his own party, the liberal media will throw him a “doggie treat.”

U.S. readies financial sanctions against Ukraine

The Obama administration is preparing financial sanctions that could be imposed on Ukrainian officials and protest leaders if violence escalates in the political crisis gripping Ukraine, congressional aides said on Wednesday.

Congressional aides, who asked not to be identified by name because of the sensitive subject, said they had discussed the sanction preparations with administration officials.

They said final details of the package have not been worked out, but it could be put in place quickly against government officials – or leaders of the protest movement – in case of widespread violence.

We have more important issues within our own unsecured borders than to interfere in Ukrainian affairs. Our nation was intended to be neutral in foreign affairs that did not impact us. And yet we have Libya, Egypt and Syria failures attributable to this pResident.

A Letter From Our New Chief Magistrate

To the People of the North-Carolina American Republic:

I thank you for entrusting me with the position of Chief Magistrate. With this position I seek to be a servant to you all. I also seek to grow and strengthen this body politic. In the time we have ahead of us, my hope and prayer is that this de jure state of ours, in this tumultuous political climate, will be able to increasingly find justice for our citizenry. As I’ve expressed in our first meeting of the year 2014, my hope is that we will each be able to contribute personally to the growth of this state, through an organized plan. My hope is that each subsequent layer of new citizens and elected representatives will strive to continue the cycle of education, growth, and discipleship, so that we can move toward an increased public awareness of our peaceful counter-revolution.

Considering the current condition of our de jure state, and a prevalent recognition of the de facto state, we cannot afford to be complacent or lax in our actions. We cannot afford to lose clarity or focus over falsehoods, misinformation, or patriot mythology. We cannot afford not to help one another or not to be a community, in fact a state, to protect each other and all citizens. We cannot afford to lose hope because of bad results. Rather, we must stay consistently obedient to the truth.

As I examine history, I’ve come to the understanding that it is just as important to personally stand for liberty, as it is to have people in place to protect it. This is true patriotism. The citizens of this state stand on a foundation of truth — a foundation which ought to be protected. And so I ask for the help of all involved in this re-established Republic. Let us each be renewed with a new focus, to understand our mission as stated by our Declaration of Re-establishment, and to re-define and execute our goals for these coming years.

I look forward to seeing my fellow citizens and officers at this next meeting on Saturday, February 1st, 2014.

Yours In Liberty,
Cliff Muncy
Chief Magistrate
