Syria's Assad Praises Putin for Changing World Order
Assad is a poison gas war criminal that should / will eventually be brought to justice. He is another pumped up dictator that needs to mind his p's and q's.
Whose invasion is just? NorthumberlandView.ca
It's possible for the World Court to have powers beyond the desires of willful war mongrels to charge and punish national leaders that commit heinous crimes against their people.
Again it is fitting to repeat Obama's position that the Crimea Invasion Reveals Putin’s ‘Weakness,’ Not His Strength | Intercepts - Defense News
The cowardly act is that of mimicking your adversary. We all know Putin is losing this bluff. The realization of the modern world order is that America is withdrawing gracefully from interventions that were mistakes of the Bush regime. Putin should withdraw soon or he might end up with a bloodied nose given the worldwide opposition that he faces and his poor reading of modern sentiments and massive enforceable alliances for world peace and legal international relations. Leaders elsewhere in the globe should remind themselves of the new world legal order that potentially can/will seek them out for their war crimes irregardless of nationality. Today, the world judges as a collective enterprise seeking peace, security and stability, not pumped up dictators as rule North Korea and Russia, etc...
The world will NOT sit by and have a pumped up muscle-man Mussolini look-alike out-of-touch dictator control it's future. It will be a frightful fight to the death of bad ideas and illegal actions. Russian poverty of leadership is much worse than Putin's empty rhetoric seem. He has met more than his match in the very capable and shrewd world leadership of Obama and the American democrats who command the world attention against this badly conceived very knee jerk protectionist reactionary step by Putin in the Crimea.
The use of force in a world strongly and overwhelmingly primed for peace is unsustainable and Putin should be made more aware of that FACT that peaceful people can fight. The Western response will hurt, but it will happen if Russia does not help the Ukraine peacefully to succeed.
Rule of international law is a foundation of the modern world order and those that think they can forget that will be eventually hauled before the world court of justice and their record put to shame as vile, one way or another....
Obama: Crimea Invasion Reveals Putin’s ‘Weakness,’ Not His Strength | Intercepts - Defense News
Reminds us of that guy Cheney working for G Bush Jr., who accidentally shot some one. Oops, I invaded the Crimea... Sorry?
A world at war is suicide as would be an invasion of the Ukraine.....
If Russia tried to conquer the Ukraine, the world would not stand by and say oh hum, rather the response would be a collective suicide as in Syria.
White House denies 'Cuban Twitter' ZunZuneo programme was covert | World news | The Guardian
There is a fine line of disturbing interference going on. Reminds one of CIA involvement in Canadian universities during the 1960's.

For those that missed my earlier commentaries on the subject...
For some it's very difficult to know what to do. For others a world of possibilities opens up as never before?

Subjective symptoms related to GSM radiation from mobile phone base stations: a cross-sectional study -- Gómez-Perretta et al. 3 (12) -- BMJ Open
Dear Sirs,
The science is NOT bad science... In my case, I get a humming in my ears that goes away when I walk to an area of the house that is more protected from the Southcott Pines Tower.
Still wondering whether what is enough for a legal battle with yourselves or an out of court settlement! So saving up, etc...

Campaign for 80% Tax Rates Begins With New Book Lauded by Paul Krugman - The New York Sun
Such rates of tax are inevitable given the unwillingness of the rich to be socially aware and helpful...
Paul Krugman debunks the 1 percent’s favorite victim-blaming lie - Salon.com
CEO of major American bank is such a creep.....
Sergey Karaganov: The man behind Putin’s pugnacity - The Globe and Mail
Sort of a mouthy Goebbels type espousing a nationalist right wing lack of consent anti-democratic racist style theme that appeals to Vladimir.
An Adaptation From ‘Flash Boys: A Wall Street Revolt,’ by Michael Lewis - NYTimes.com
This says a lot about Canadian banking culture as it was, and not so different from London, UK until the push from America ....

Bad ideas are costly..
The Economics of the Larger Economy Stifling the Emergence of Competition from Smaller Trading Neighbour
You will begin to understand why Canadian industry is so vulnerable to unwise American direct investment that has in the past been so detrimental to international banking and causes so much pain now around the world. This is American beggar thy neighbour at its finest, or more like make it so thy neighbour cannot produce effectively a competitive product.

Yellowstone National Park hit by 4.8-magnitude earthquake after California is shaken by major tremor | Mail Online
And, they want to do fracking for gas?????
Black death was not spread by rat fleas, say researchers | Science | The Observer
Might even lead to forecasting the past?
Putin is such a very bad economist. Even Marx would have rolled over in his grave.
What Putin achieved in negative terms in less than a month took pain and hard work for Russians to build in a decade. Crazy economics makes no strategic sense whatsoever? Wasted economic multiplier effect from the Olympic investments ... And add the wasted spending on military equipment servicing and personnel. Not good economics by anyone's standards.

Why Russia should accept a new peaceful role in a world where backing tyrants isn't really so profitable in the long term...
Putin's fall from grace can be overturned by overtures now of peace recognizing that Russia has more to gain by becoming a leading world economy than by remaining a spoiler and supporter of bad old regimes. Likewise America has everything to gain by getting Russia to rethink its rotten backward looking strategies moving away from ideas that have no place in peaceful world community that has more important problems to solve than fears about loss of face.
It's a big mistake to think the US might not use it's military. The world has already seen it has worldwide support....
The world has changed forever because of Putin's fall from grace. An aggressive act really is a declaration of war. Make no mistake, America is preparing itself for the big one... Pressure will mount on Obama to assert a military confrontation and the failure of peace efforts this implies.

The Internet User's Best Kept Secret
Sketches from scratches is a provocative blogspot that has grown out of the Wuh Lax experience. It is eclectic, which means that it might consider just about anything from the simple to the extremely difficult. A scratch can be something that is troubling me or a short line on paper. From a scratch comes a verbal sketch or image sketch of the issue or subject. Other sites have other stuff that should really be of interest to the broad reader. I try to develop themes, but variety often comes before depth.
