No more Rap in Russia. How fortunate
I heard the bearded transvestite won the Euro singing contest and all things Russia was booed. Interesting times.
‘Putin’s Kleptocracy’
Her verdict is not merely that Putin’s boast of having built a potent, efficient state that fights for the little guy and against the venality of the powerful is bunk. Her bedrock claims are that the essential character of Putin’s system is colossal corruption and that he is a prime beneficiary. The thievery, she says, has made him fabulously rich, along with a coterie of trusted friends dating back to his days as a K.G.B. officer in Communist East Germany, then as first deputy mayor in 1990s St. Petersburg, then as head of the Federal Security Service.
the standard shenanigans of crooked regimes:
bribetaking from domestic and foreign companies seeking business permits;
kickbacks from inflated no-bid contracts for state projects;
privatization deals rigged to enrich cronies who will later be cash cows for the Kremlin;
illicit exports of raw materials purchased at state-subsidized prices and sold for a killing;
“donations” from oligarchs eager to keep feeding at the government’s trough; real estate scams yielding mega-profits and palatial homes;
money laundering;
election-fixing;
labyrinthine offshore accounts;
lucrative partnerships with the mob;
and the intimidation, even elimination, of would-be whistle-blowers.
Russia’s superrich must demonstrate absolute loyalty to the president. As Mikhail Khodorkovsky and other tycoons have discovered, the punishment for defiance is severe.
Dawisha won’t disappoint readers seeking examples of industrial-size sleaze. She reckons Putin’s private wealth at $40 billion and lists among his prized possessions yachts, planes and palaces — along with a $700,000 wristwatch collection for good measure.
As for the Friends of Vladimir, Dawisha writes that “more than half of the $50 billion spent on the Sochi Olympics simply disappeared into the pockets of Putin’s cronies.” The Rotenberg brothers, Putin’s childhood chums, alone garnered $2.5 billion of the outlay for the games.
Russia’s roster of 110 billionaires remains remarkably static, even as the wealthy in other countries rise and fall. What these plutocrats share are longstanding, close connections to Putin. And not a few are former K.G.B. operatives themselves.

I love that Russia is completely fucked because OPEC is afraid of the US.
Enough to make one believe in karma.
Good luck putin
In Diplomatic Defeat, Putin Diverts Pipeline to Turkey
President Vladimir V. Putin said Monday that he would scrapRussia’s South Stream gas pipeline, a grandiose project that was once intended to establish the country’s dominance in southeastern Europe but instead fell victim toRussia’s increasingly toxic relationship with the West.
It was a rare diplomatic defeat for Mr. Putin, who said Russia would redirect the pipeline to Turkey. He painted the failure to build the pipeline as a loss for Europe and blamed Brussels for its intransigence.
The decision also seemed to be a rare victory for the European Union and the Obama administration, which have appeared largely impotent this year as Mr. Putin annexed Crimea and stirred rebellion in eastern Ukraine.

US gas reserves will be sought out by Europe.
Putin petrol threats have done exactly the opposite of what he has wanted long term.
Do Svidaniya
Infinite limit, I'll be joining you in 5 years. In austria which wil hopefully be part of the Reich. Sieg heil.
You don't know shit. Literally every german and Austrian are sympathetic at heart and aren't allowed to talk about it without sjws trying to ruin their lives.
If they aren't allowed to talk about it, how do you know literally every one of them feels that way?
And why would they be so afraid of any other group? You're saying literally every one of them is a frightened pussy.
With Russia on Brink of Recession, Putin Faces ‘New Reality’
President Vladimir V. Putin grew wildly popular by making Russians richer every year and by vowing to restore their country’s great power status. But now, with the government predicting Tuesday that the battered economy will fall into recession next year, that formula is in jeopardy.
Every day brings a barrage of woeful economic news. World oil prices just hit a five-year low. The Russian ruble is down 40 percent against the dollar so far in 2014. Inflation is due to rise 9 percent this year and to continue climbing. Capital flight is expected to reach $128 billion.
The Kremlin suffered the collapse of the Soviet state and a government default during previous extended declines in oil prices, so the changing fortunes potentially pose extreme challenges.
Mr. Putin has already shelved planned megaprojects, like the South Stream pipeline to ship gas to southern Europe, which was canceled on Monday, and a high-speed railway from Moscow to Kazan, a city east of the capital.
Some analysts say the changes may be felt in the policy area, where Mr. Putin may feel compelled to tone down his aggressive, anti-Western stance. But others worry that he may do just the opposite, saying that his need to divert attention from economic problems might inspire further nationalistic adventures abroad, akin to the annexation of Crimea.
“It is a completely new reality for him,” Sergei M. Guriev, a prominent economist who fled into exile last year, said of Mr. Putin. “Whenever Russia wanted the oil price to go up, it has gone up. He has always been lucky, and this time he is not lucky.”

Not afraid, it's their homeland and it's sacred. It's like Japan or recently israel considering legislation to declare it officially a jewish state.

It's banned. Social conditions arent quite right just yet. Currently if you even question the holocaust they literally throw you in jail for thoughtcrime. It'll boil over soon, hell even the swedecucks are waking up to cultural Marxism.
Me and my men are set to take over austria when SHTF. We've got deep pockets and funding going back to 1945 money. It was all smuggled out and companies were set up abroad. The nsdap is still active internationally.
So what? You said literally every one of them feels this way.
"They" can't throw them all in jail.
What a bunch of scared pussies they all are. Afraid of a little jail. Hitler wasn't afraid of jail. Why are you?
Pussy.
You're an accountant.
You have accountant money.
if im not mistaken, wasn't m>s's previous persona being black? or am i confusing that with somebody else
Trolling or not I think plotting the overthrow of various nation states in the name of the nazi party on a public message board is a good way to get the FBI or similar federal body to pay attention. We know that the feds datamine and flag certain phrases. We also know that the feds have a hard on for right wing militia stupidity only behind jihadis ever since they blew up the OKC federal building.
It's pretty stupid either way.
i dont think the feds are concerned with rogue internet nazis :lol
:lol Obama
:lol fake tough president
:lol afraid of Putin
No worries guys I'm not planning to overthrow anything, illegitimate governments cants last forever and it's just a waiting game. I have a plan to fill the power vacuum that is created when the time comes.
why austria instead of germany you ask? Austria hasn't been guilt tripped, brainwashed and propagandized for the past 68 years and never underwent denazification. Austrians are ready to accept national socialism and I will continue the work of my late great great grandfather. Once inside it won't be hard to destabilize the motherland and have her join us in aunschluss.
Russian propaganda is so much nicer than western propaganda tbh :

In 1st video there is a guy sitting on the right side, freaking out everybody. At the end he says " For Russia, from Kamchatka (easternmost Russia) to Odessa (westernmost Ukrainian coast). One and indivisible."
He's Pavel Gubarev, self-proclaimed People's Governor of DPR, although they sidelined him after elections of 2nd November.

Pavel has a bit of a sketchy past.

So much for their anti-fascist struggle.
Jon Stewart roasts Fox’s hypocrisy: You only love freedom when it’s ‘administered by a dictator’
The round of right-wing praise for King Abdullah, Stewart said, came on the heels of Fox gushing over Russian President Vladimir Putin and Rep. Louie Gohmert (R-TX) complaining on the House floor that he wished U.S. leaders had the “courage” of Obama’s Egyptian counterpart, Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi.
“If I’m understanding this correctly — and I think I am — the paragons of leadership are a king, military dictator and a power-crazed wanna-be czar,” Stewart observed. “Seems kind of at odds with the one thing you guys claim to value the most.”
