Windows to Russia

I have to hit the road, or better yet get in a train and travel to Europe…

What use to be a nice easy trip to Ukraine has become a longer and more trying trip, deeper into Europe. I like traveling to Kiev, Ukraine for the short business jaunts. It was safe, basically and interesting. The Ukraine people are good people. But as I talked about many years ago and it came true. Ukraine has become a vassal state of the USA…

This article showed me what was happening many years ago to Ukraine…

Pickpocket: We All Think That It Will Never Happen To Us! (Part 3 – American Embassy Experience)

Then I warned with this, after being there many more times…

Hmm….In 2010 I watched America infiltrate Ukraine…

Then after Ukraine collapsed, I wrote this article…

A Warning in Traveling Kiev, Ukraine…

I will not travel Ukraine again…. It was bad in Kiev. I know there is good abound in Ukraine, but it is not safe in Kiev. I was a stranger in a city that I have traveled to scores of times and enjoyed the city like it was home. It is home no longer…

I wrote about this in the past also. Everything that I have written about Ukraine has come true. Ukraine is a vassal state of America. Well the part that is not is under attack daily, by Kiev…

Wake up people…

Therefore, I will be traveling to Estonia and spend a few days doing my business. Everything was transferred from Ukraine years ago and now Estonia benefits from my coming and going. Estonia is become a vassal state of America also. NATO rules Estonia…

Again, “Wake up people!”

I wish I could travel to East Ukraine? But, I would be blackballed…. That could extend farther into Europe real quick…

We in America are not alone in this endeavor...

A puppet state of America has removed all their Lenin statues…

You say, “Good?”

I say history is to be embraced. Good or bad history needs to be embraced, dealt with mentally and learned from…

We seem, in the west to be in a very uncivilized time:

We are trying to remove everything that makes us who we are and what made us who we are. We can hate and hate and hate, but soon without the reminders we must and will move on to other things to hate. I do not hate Civil War Stuff. I do not hate Lenin…

I learn from these statues:

These monuments to the past. These items of history, that were created and produced in another time and era. Things were not perfect in these eras. But they all have lessons and history that we need to embrace. For how else do we learn that what we do now in history is naught but a repeat of what was done back then?

Are we not suppose to be more civilized, more tolerant and more worthy of living on this planet than in the past. Do we not want to climb the ladder and see a better future? For we are regressing…

Destroy the statues and monuments, due to political and personal feelings and soon we must turn to literature, art, fantasies and tear them down to satisfy our lust for destruction…. We already kill aimlessly all over the world to satisfy our desires…

[contentcards url=”http://www.king5.com/news/local/seattle/calls-to-remove-controversial-statues-in-seattle-area/464947356″]

We have entered a very dangerous point in our lives right now:

Things such as statue removal for whimsical reasons are a preclude to removal of things for the wrong reasons and then removal just to cover up the past…. Life is full of wrongs and unless we embrace such wrongs and learn from them, we stagnate and wither…

All through history things have been destroyed, because people do not like what things represent. We in the west seemed to at one time have reached a point of embracing our wrongs and standing up for preserving good above evil. When we try to alter our world and create a perfect image around us to meet our expectations, we fail and create the conditions to circle around and do all that we did once before, again and again…

Hate…

There seems to be a lot of hate and hate is one of those words that is very sever. Hate is harsh. We may dislike something. We may abhor something. But to hate is vehement and to be even more passionate to the point of hurting, killing and disfiguring…. Hate is the ultimate of disliking and when we are hating and smashing, we are not in control… Hate is the word that comes out like all four letter words, under stress. Eg. I hate you… Hate accompanies anger. Eg. I want to kill you!…

We may feel dislike, but a civil society will look beyond the hate. Not embrace it. Hate comes from years and years of propaganda. Just like we are doing to and having done to us with North Korea. We hate NK, Russia, China and dozens of other countries. All the while we don’t see that our hatred is driving these people to hate us. We are not civilized, we are unsophisticated and rude…

We are rude to each other within and very rude to others without our country. We are even rude to our people that travel the world, such as I do. We seem to have a hate for the world and I use to see that called, “You have a chip on your shoulder!”

What has happened in Ukraine is a direct result of USA influence. It started years ago as America has worked and wormed itself into the politics and propaganda of Ukraine. I saw it ten years ago as I traveled Ukraine and it has come full circle to hate…

Russians loved Ukraine and loved America very very much. America could do not wrong, but now, Russia is learning to hate America and hate how Ukraine is treating her. Russia has many family members in Ukraine. Not just a few, but millions and millions of Russians live in Ukraine…. Now because of western interference, millions and millions of Ukrainians have moved to Russia. That is a lot of hate going on…

You do not have to like Lenin, Stalin and even Jackson, Grant from America. But they are men and or people who shaped what we have now. What we are trying to destroy. They are gone, history and simply the past…

We should learn from such people. We should learn what was good and what was bad and what it was that made us hate so much. Then we should analyze that feeling of hatred and utilize it for the betterment of our future…

A future that is full of strife is what we will create and have created. It is a future of nothing but hate and that hate is directed the wrong direction. As it is intended to be directed. Against those that did nothing to you or those around you…. Next up books, movies and paintings. Does it matter if that old Humphrey Bogart movies shows people smoking? Maybe movies that show slaves as real people and they are black should be banned? Maybe The Wizard of Oz is too racist against little people. Maybe you hate such movies, but maybe I like such movies?

Where does it end? Once started, the ending is sometimes far from available!

If you want to hate?

Hate something worth hating and change what is happening to our world right now. We are parasitic and viral upon this world. We need to hate the real issues at hand and not look at the past as a band aid for our lives now…. We need to focus our attention onto the banks, politicians, finances and killing…

I do not want to hate!

I just feel sorry for so many who are not happy, capable, narcissistic and so shortsighted about all the things around them. Hate, terrorism, murder, pillaging and such and such, have won and we are not civilized in anyway at all…

That iPhone does not make you a civilized person…

A cup of coffee runs me about 10 rubles per cup. That is a big cup by the way, 600 milliliters…. That is about .17 cents a cup…. With milk included… Or lets just say; less than a penny an ounce…

I occasionally buy a cup of coffee from the local grocery store. This runs 29 rubles for 500 milliliters. Thus, knowing what things cost…. They are not making much off each cup of coffee. The cup itself is the biggest cost factor to get around. But they are making money and they sell a whole bunch of these coffees. To boot, they sell a ton of pastries that they bake themselves, right next to the coffee spot… 😉

Point of Sale at work there…

When I see coffee for sale in the dollars, not cents per cup, I cringe…. Even Starbucks in Russia has a cult type following and Russians have lots of free spendable money. Thus, Starbucks does well in Moscow. No you will not find a Starbucks in our Big Village, you do not find a coffee place of any type, for Russians love their hot tea…. Coffee is a big city thingy in Russia…

Oh well! For as I walk everyday, I find enough coins tossed away to pay for my home made coffee habit. It is nothing to find a 10 ruble coin laying on the ground and I was trained by my grandma to never leave a coin laying around. Pick it up and keep it, they add up after awhile. That they do and I have a shoe box full of coins, a big shoe box…

That’s a bunch of coffee…

“I am not terrified of the terrorists; i.e., I am not, myself, terrorized. Rather, I am terrified of the terrorized; terrified of the bovine masses who are so easily manipulated by terrorists, governments, and the terror-amplifying media into allowing our country to slip toward totalitarianism and total war…”

“I do not irrationally and disproportionately fear Muslim bomb-wielding jihadists or white, gun-toting nutcases. But I rationally and proportionately fear those who do, and the regimes such terror empowers. History demonstrates that governments are capable of mass murder and enslavement far beyond what rogue militants can muster. Industrial-scale terrorists are the ones who wear ties, chevrons, and badges. But such terrorists are a powerless few without the supine acquiescence of the terrorized many. There is nothing to fear but the fearful themselves…”

I was sent a link about a week ago…

It is a link that I have been looking at. By that I mean, it is a subject I have been watching for awhile…. It is about GMO foods… (genetically modified organism)…. Sounds terrible, no wonder they prefer GMO…

Being almost a geneticists by degree. I find interests in such things as GMO’s and why we would want to eat them?

[contentcards url=”http://responsibletechnology.org/10-reasons-to-avoid-gmos/”]

The American Academy of Environmental Medicine (AAEM)
Urges doctors to prescribe non-GMO diets for all patients. They cite animal studies showing organ damage, gastrointestinal and immune system disorders, accelerated aging, and infertility. Human studies show how genetically modified (GM) food can leave material behind inside us, possibly causing long-term problems. Genes inserted into GM soy, for example, can transfer into the DNA of bacteria living inside us, and that the toxic insecticide produced by GM corn was found in the blood of pregnant women and their unborn fetuses.

I am not going to tell you not to eat them…

We all will, even in Russia, eat some GMO food. I will tell you that in the west, you are just about being fed nothing but GMO foods and unless you spend more money and unless you work at getting your food from sources that you know are GMO free. You will be eating a bunch of GMO, now, later and always…

Russia is looking to end such a practice. The fact is Russian doctors and their administrators in the upper echelon are dead set against such foods and they have lots of good reasons to believe such food is bad for you in the long run…

Since I have been in Russia for almost eleven years…

The Russian health department in the government is very sensitive and helpful to the citizens of Russia. maybe old fashion at times, but they have the health of their people in mind. Now the people seem to have affections for items that hurt them, such as vodka and salo, but it is not because the government does not try…. The people come first in Russia and that is that…

I will tell you that Sveta and I will not knowingly eat GMO products…

Now when I travel to Europe and eat out, I have little to say about such things, but in Russia it is easy to know what is GMO and what is not GMO. GMO is banned in Russia and even in the largest store around, I am able to get carrots, apples and such GMO free. In fact potatoes and carrots are sold with the dirt still on them everywhere. They dig them up shake them off and sell them. You buy some dirt in the weight, but really that is a small price to pay for food grown in the villages and sold to us in Moscow…

In the Tiny Russian Villages, you just go to the neighbor who grows an abundance of potatoes (as example) and barter for a bag of potatoes. In Moscow, just go to the street corner and you most likely will find a truck selling all the fresh potatoes you could ever want. They go to the villages and load up daily…

The Big Village that I talk about near our Tiny Russian Village is a perfect example of a village of 10,000 people that all families literally have huge garden patches growing potatoes, GMO free and anyone can get them. No one has so many rules and regulations that stop and forbid buying food that is good for you. Besides Russians could careless about the rules anyway. Good food is good food and damn to all, you get good food…

Moscow people have dachas that they grow their favorite veggies and if not, you go to friends in the villages and or family…

I base it on this…

The fact is the west refuses to classify GMO foods as good or bad, other words; GMO foods cannot be generalized as either healthy or unhealthy. And that is where it stands and most likely will for many years…. If not forever, if the Monsanto’s have their way…

I grew up on GMO free food and found myself in a world that slipped GMO foods into the mainstream and really never said anything to anyone. They did it because, people would complain and get upset. It was just slid in on home base and we ate them unknowingly for a long time…

An email that I received: I hope they do not mind me posting it?

The essence of non-GMO is it’s complete lack of food safety. One look at it and you know it’s good. The food safety experts can’t comprehend an egg from a healthy chicken will last for a month in an non refrigerated cellar. Now that chicken needs to eat bugs, grass and such, gets lots of water, sun and exercise. A bit of simple animal husbandry love or empathy goes a long way too. As such it won’t need the antibiotics and hormones that are causing our children to hit puberty at 8 or earlier. Of course that’s but one example. Heaven forbid an diary inspector from Missouri travel to Odessa (Ukraine, for there is an Odessa in Missouri…) and see the people sampling the non refrigerated tvorok on open tables exposed to people, bugs and all kind of stuff. (We both know that tvorok (cottage cheese) is a little piece of heaven on earth and the best way to extend the healthy life of the dairy product, not to mention providing it’s consumers with a plethora of probiotics and it purveyors with desperately needed income.)

The email came from a farmer by birth and raised as a farmer. He had to leave the farm to survive as most of us have had to do, but he still helps his dad and mom on the farm when he can…

Eat GMO!

I could careless. But, I do know that to eat a better product is better for you. Genetics is a fantastic science and helps us to progress in the world. But some things in genetics should be treated with care and caution…

Nothing beats Vova’s chicken, pork and rabbits, all hand raised and hand fed. They run free, they eat tons of good food and they have a good life. Besides Boza loves to chase them when he can find them. He also thinks they might make good eating, given a chance at a bite or two… 😉

Money should not be the driving factor to advancement in the first place and GMO’s are driven by money. Not care, morals, truth, health and or consideration of the subject at hand…. Just the dollars, control and power to be made/had at the bottom line of that corporate spreadsheet…

I thank Russia for keeping the GMO foods in a truthful light. I know what can happen and it will happen. Russia wants to become the kings of non GMO food and I hope that they do. The world needs a good source of GMO free foods and Russia has the ability to supply such foods…

Another reason I love Russia…

Really they sound terrible and can not be healthy… lets add a gene that does not belong to this potato and feed it to the masses… Okay…

We got home safe and sound. Maybe missing some mental capacity? For Moscow is hell on wheels with all the idiots driving around. I have talked about Moscow and her drivers many times and it never changes…. Moscow drivers simply suck…

I checked the rear end for fluid loss and we were doing okay. We used some stop leak that Svetochka brought from Moscow and it got us home. We have to think about what we will do with the rear axle. If the stop leak gets us through the winter and until money frees up, then we will be okay. We seem to be in the situation to look for a rear end for a Volga 3110 type car. Or at least the ring and pinion from one. New is just too expensive…

Oh how we wish to be rich and install a limited slip differential. That would show the village roads who is boss… 😉

We found a small lake along the roads as we drove and since it was time to do Boza’s eyes and we were hungry, we stopped and picnicked…. It was perfect, I laid a coat down for Svetochka to sit on, we had sliced salami, homemade chicken salad, crackers, tortilla wraps, sliced cucumbers, cookies and hot tea to drink…

Svetochka was in heaven, Boza was hungry and I was grouchy. But a very happy grouchy…

Sveta called the neighbors and told them that I was going to fix their fence. It had collapsed around the gate area. This is my friends home called Nicolai, he is having serious health issues and we truly hope he makes it. We missed him this summer…. He is a good man…. Since he has the place locked up, I had to resort to jimmy rigging the situation. For if I climbed the fence it would definitely be on the ground. I am just too fat and big to do that to a fence, that is old and decrepit…

It is solid now and when we get back later in October, we will check his fence all the way around and repair better if needed. The last storm tore his fence down…

The roads in Russia, or at least the roads we travel on 90% of the time, are in fine shape. This is good. For in the past, the roads in Russia are terrible. Russia has been working on her highways and in general the highways are good now. Constant construction is being done and it makes for good driving. Easier on the cars, that is for sure…

Don’t get me wrong, the side roads are still hell themselves, but as with our village roads, I prefer the goat trails, it keeps the riffraff out… 😉

Gotta get some images of Svetochka, she is always taking images, but we never get any of her…

In Syria, as a result of shelling by terrorists IS (“Islamic State”, the organization is banned in Russia), Lieutenant-General Valery Asapov died, RIA Novosti reported citing the Russian Defense Ministry. According to the military department, Lieutenant-General Asapov was the senior group of Russian military advisers, he was at the command post of the Syrian troops. Russian servicemen help the Syrian commanders in the operation of the operation to liberate the city of Deir ez-Zor. “As a result of a sudden mortar shelling of ISIS militants, Lieutenant-General Valery Asapov was mortally wounded by an explosion,” the Defense Ministry said. They added that the lieutenant-general is presented posthumously to a high state award….

Since we know it is fact (At least fact in the real world!) and acknowledged fact that ISIS is controlled by the CIA from within and or out of America. Once more we have a USA directed shelling of facilities associated with Syria…. Again in America; no one is in charge and everyone wants to be in charge… Sorry Trump, but you are just another Clinton, Bush and Obama type puppet…

We got a war coming and the out of control USA has lost complete control of its proxy terrorists forces in Syria. Or maybe they are in that chaotic control that I so often talk about here on Windows to Russia?

Whatever! It means only one things unless America gets real about getting rid of terrorists in Syria…. America has to stop supporting terrorists for its own agenda…

War is coming and it will be a war no one will be left to write the history about…

What I find interesting is that the western media has nothing but crickets chirping about all this involvement of the American CIA and other “three letter assemblies” in Syria. Should tell you about how controlled the western media is and how truth is just a nasty word to the west…

Remember; You are either part of the correction or you are part of the issue…

So the legit government of Syria, voted for by the people and that government invites Russia to help them against terrorists. Is under attack once again and someone helping is standing in full view. The USA is looking for that war and illegal or not the USA wants that war to take financial issues off their back…

When are you going to wake up and see that your media in the west is covering up such atrocities and playing a card that is illegally install in the deck. USA go home, Syria does not need your fake help and if you would go home and terrorize America, the rest of the world could get on with life…

It is confirmed and it has been known since the beginning. Looks like Russia is pulling the gloves off…

Most of the world knows that ISIS is American made…

Of course, the Russians could simply fire a volley of Kalibr cruise missile at any of the ISIS positions shown in the photos above and then go “oops, you had personnel embedded with these al-Qaeda types?  Really?  We had no idea, no idea at all“. 

Na, Russia likes to give warning shots first. Which means America, get these CIA (three letter) idiots out of Syria. Soon the body bags will flow home…

by Mikhail Leontyev

Mikhail Leontiev devoted his column on the first Russian television channel to Thomas Barnett’s theory. What appeared to be an intellectual lucubration in 2001 is currently being realized. Everyone must now rethink their vision of the wars of the past sixteen years.

However, hello!

Trump delivered a speech at the UN General Assembly. As Saltykov-Shchedrin [1] pointed out once: “Kind folk awaited bloodshed and massacres from him, instead, he ate a doughnut.”

“Strong sovereign nations allow citizens to flourish in the fullness of life provided for by God. We in America do not seek to impose our way of life on anyone. And we want ours to be so brilliant as to serve to the rest as an example, “said US President Donald Trump.

Hooray! He is giving a slack. In the past he would have aspired to impose a resplendent image to follow! But now he has given up all the aspiring. At the same time, note, to erase from the face of the Earth and to overthrow is still in fashion. Trump threatens to destroy North Korea, Iran, overthrow the regime in Venezuela … But to try to impose an image nowadays is a big no-no.

“The war should not be conducted against individual states with a mobile political situation, but against regions of the world, because those states are coded in this program of destruction. Of course, they will start from one country or another, then the infection will spread until everything collapses, as we can see today in the example of the Middle East. Of course, this is a policy, the implementation of which began after September 11, 2001, and we failed to grasp the significance of the events of September 11. None of the wars that have been fought since then has been concluded”, said French political scientist, journalist (Syria, Damascus) Thierry Meyssan.

And it is true. For 15 years, none of the wars came to an end! Thierry Meyssan, a well-known conspiracy theories specialist, scholar and Orientalist, claims that we did not notice a radical change in the American strategy since the September the 11th.

“Neo-imperialism of the United States does not intend to offer anything for those states that are among the stable, nor for those that are a source of natural resources. Stable states will have access to resources, and the sources of natural resources will be completely destroyed, plunged into chaos”, continues Thierry Meyssan.

Here is this map from Hell, to which Meyssan refers, from the book of geostrategist and publicist Professor Barnett, who served as an assistant to Admiral Cerbowski, who directed the Department of Transformation of the Armed Forces at the Pentagon. Virtually all of Africa, Central and Latin America, except Brazil and Argentina, fall into the zone of “non-integrable states” doomed to chaos.Then, naturally, the entire Middle East with Turkey, the Persian Gulf, Iran and Pakistan, all Middle and South-east Asia and all The Balkans, except Greece. At the same time, Russia, India and China are prudently surgically removed out of the “nightmare zone”.

“The power of Leviathan must be released only occasionally. But here’s what you can promise the American people, our citizens, and the whole world. If we release this Leviathan, then we promise, we guarantee that immediately, immediately afterwards we will install the functional governance. You should not plan a war if you do not expect to find peace, “states US political analyst Thomas Barnett.

And they will inherit the Kingdom! … For the slow-witted: the functional governance is just an administration of occupational forces. American ones. For those in the know: what kind of American administration can be offered for “non-integrable territories”? The key is in the name-Non-integrable. You have been told! And why on Earth anyone would want to create a “perfect image”for them? Let them wallow in squalor.

Let me quote Meyssan once again : none of the wars that started after September 11 is over.

However, goodbye!

Still eating strawberries in TRV…

Time to pack the bags and get on home to Moscow. Boza has a doctor to visit, I have to leave Russia and Svetochka is taking time off to watch Boza while I am gone. Boza will be happy to have her waiting on him hand and foot. Boza just loves his Svetochka…

Then after a few weeks…. Maybe????? – Svetochka will take her main vacation and we will spend two more weeks in the Tiny Russian Village? This is before Old man Winter settles in deep and cold…

We will see…
