Source: Breaking: US-Backed Free Syrian Army Group Shoots Down Russian Jet, Kills Pilot
The scenario where a US-backed, US-supplied jihadist group in Syria uses US weapons to shoot down a Russian plane and then murders the pilot on the ground should be seen as a near-nightmare escalation, drawing the US and Russia terrifyingly closer to direct conflict.
True…

Pretty simple to get a feel of what is happening in the world…just look at the news from all over…. Then I decided to check USA news…
I just looked at the Drudge Report… (quaver)
The Drudge Report is a perfect symbol as the face of the USA. It is like one of those African Magical Masks, that brings the truth out from what is hidden within our souls…
Our Soul is Chaos…
My favorite quote of Matt Drudge is below…
They could put Hillary Clinton’s brain in a jar in the Oval Office, and she’d be elected. People are really sick. – Matt Drudge
Oh so true! In fact if they had done that, she would have been elected…
Okay, now that second cup of coffee….and I am going to ignore the world today. Svetochka is home, Boza is doing better today and I just want to spend time with my two buddies…
Have a nice day!

These are the kind of posts that get WtR attacked, but if someone does not keep saying it, repeating it and driving it home to the band, soon it will be too late…
The world has reached a point that they are tired of being bullied…
I agree to a point with what Paul Craig Roberts is saying. But, what this last move by America has done is start the war drums beating for the first time in a long time in Russia. This is not good and unless America starts to grow up and become civilized. Those war drums will do nothing but get louder and louder. The Russian patriots are getting ready to talk the talk and that means they will walk the walk…
America, do not step over the Rubicon, what awaits on the other side is our (American) homeland being devastated….do no0t mistake quiet reaction with weakness. Instead take the quietness as that introvert waiting until the right moment….the introvert has muscles and is fast and will not stop until you are defeated…
Russia Is Preparing for Nuclear War with the US and Its Allies
This is not a game and when we step over that Rubicon…
Starting to Look Like the West Will Cross the Rubicon River…
As we did with Libya, there will not be a weak country waiting for her. It will be Russia and China and they do not look at bluffing, games and lies as something that you can take away at a whim…
Paul Craig Roberts is correct in that this last round of sanction crap targets Putin, but….it just makes Russians more determined to get out from under the games of the Western Empire…
Wake up and do something about it…
Question: Do you desire to live like this?
I do not!

1 February 2018 12:30 Government House, Moscow
Government meeting.
Excerpts from the transcript:

Government meeting:
Vitaly Mutko: Today CAS has published its decision. It considered the appeals of our athletes against the decision of the IOC, the so-called Oswald commission, which examined 43 cases against our athletes and decided to disqualify them for life and to deprive them of all medals received at the Sochi Olympics. Athletes disagreed with this and filed lawsuits with CAS.
The Ministry of Sport and the Russian Olympic Committee provided full support to athletes and hired the best lawyers and experts, who proved the innocence of the athletes in the trial.
Twenty-eight athletes were totally cleared and got back all their medals. Among them are Olympic champion Alexander Legkov, Olympic champion Alexander Tretyakov (skeleton), Olympic medalists Ivanova (luge), Fatkulina (speed skating).
The decision also influenced the medal standings − Russia regained first place, but the most important thing is that the athletes got their good names back.
Now those athletes who are ready to participate in the Olympic Games in South Korea, who have qualified and have quotas in their sports, will be entered for the Olympics. If the IOC does not invite them, then they will be supported in various lawsuits in the CAS and other relevant courts. Several such lawsuits have already been filed.
As for 11 athletes for whom the CAS upheld the decision on violating the Anti-Doping Rules, part of the sanctions against them have been removed, such as lifetime disqualification, which is, overall, unprecedented. Members of the IOC executive committee, or the commission, who are elected only for a certain amount of time, nevertheless disqualified the athletes for life. We will study the court’s decisions on these athletes and, of course, we will monitor the appeal on these decisions. Among these athletes there are such outstanding ones as Alexander Zubkov (bobsled) and our female hockey players.
Three more cases against our biathletes (Zaitseva, Vilukhina) are under consideration in the CAS. We also believe that they can be won.
Proceedings in CAS once again showed that the accusations are completely superficial, unsubstanciated and unfounded.
The reports, made by Mr McLaren, were not confirmed in any way in the court. We can say that the CAS made a decision that there was no system, no manipulation at the Sochi Olympics.
We are open to interaction with all international sports organisations, we will cooperate. We would like it to be mutual and in good faith.
Dmitry Medvedev: We never doubted that our athletes fully deserved all the medals that they won in Sochi. It is good that the court confirmed this completely and proved that our athletes were clean. This is very important from the point of view of the future of the athletes themselves and the organisation of work on high performance sports in our country.
We must do our best so that the athletes who have been cleared of all charges can take advantage of all the opportunities that they have been given as a result of this judicial decision.

The USA is flying in Russian airspace near the Crimea! In Russian airspace…
Please America, “Don’t be stupid. It’s not smart.”
Several instigated incidents with US surveillance planes approaching Russian borders on the Black Sea waters has been in the western news as Russian aggression. But….as we know the USA is usually where it does not belong….many times many thousands of miles away from the US homeland…
The Russian Ministry of Defense has politely reminded and warned Washington DC of the USA, that its reconnaissance planes in the Black Sea region, “Will be met by Russian jets, but not by the Ukrainian partners.”
Ironically the Russian Ministry of Defense has had to go a step farther with its warning and wisdom. They added that another option to solve the flight deviations that seem to be happening, is for the Pentagon to solve its flying issues, “To issue new maps with correct Russian airspace borders to all the crews.”
Bad Aggressive America looking to instigate a war!

Moo…
One of the most expensive foods you can buy in Russia are cow tongues. What I use to get for free in America (no one eats them,) are sought after and used for special occasions in Russia. Never found a cheap cow tongue yet in the stores. Cheap beef, cheap pork and very cheap chicken, but that cow tongue is gold in price…
In Russia: Beef and pork tongue are considered delicacies due to a gentle soft texture, exquisite taste, vitamin and nutritional value. The makeup of its structure is a simple solid muscle, therefore it contains lots of proteins, some fat and is practically devoid of carbohydrates. As beef tongue is rich in zinc, which helps produces insulin in the body of a diabetic, which is good for it helps people like me. The absence of connective tissue in the tongue ensures its excellent digestibility, so you can definitely call it a dietary product. It remains for us to learn how to properly prepare the beef tongue…
You will need:
One beef tongue (bigger the better in Russia)
One large onion
Two large carrots
Five sticks of celery
Salt, garlic and pepper to taste
1. Wash the beef tongue in hot water (Hot? A Russian thing to do, not cold! Other words rinse the cow tongue…)
2. Cut off excess fat…
3. If you can peal off the skin at this point, okay get peeling, peel that tongue…
4. Oops, you cannot do it? If it does not peel easily, don’t worry you can skin the tongue once it is cooked… (Sorry, but I think they taste much better peeled to start with…)
5. If you are not planning on serving the whole beef tongue at the dinner table and carve it, as the family delicacy that it is, you can cut it in half on the long side and or big chunks however you want…
6. Put the beef tongue into a large pot and add boiling water just enough to cover the tongue…
7. Add diced onion, carrot, celery sticks. Then season to taste (be careful here, some tongues come pre-brined,) go ahead and give it some garlic…
8. Bring to boil 5 minutes hard boil, then turn down the heat and simmer…
9. Then skim the nasty looking foam from the surface of the water…
10. Let the cow tongue simmer slowly for about an hour… (I simmer for two hours many times, the longer the more tender it becomes…)
Yummy…
Now get ready for a licking good time. It makes great sandwiches (sliced with ketchup) and if the family does not gross out, you can carve it (skinned of course or not! 😉 ) right in front of them, like a turkey…
Oh, I love cow tongue…add mashed potatoes, greenbeans and what ever…
Leftovers? What leftovers? Dice it and make a cow tongue salad to spread on a piece of bread…

Russia says evidence presented by the United States alleging that Iran had supplied missiles to Yemen’s Houthi fighters is not conclusive, stressing there is no case for any UN action against Tehran.
After traveling to Washington to view pieces of weapons that Washington claims Tehran gave to Houthi fighters, Russia’s UN Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia told reporters on Wednesday that “Iran is vehemently denying it is supplying anything to Yemen.”

And this my friend is the normal for the USA…
Guilty because we say so and always guilty until proven innocent. This has become the norm….internally and externally for the US!

America is this your future?
Free money for all?
The free money will cause a massive influx of beggars or people who want to be beggars. It was always interesting to stand in the food line when the Gov. trucks pulled up in our town. Free cheese, peanut butter and all for everyone. I remember the millionaire old lady getting her free cheese… Yippy Yi Yi Yo!
KMart and that BlueLight Special, right this way…
How far does the pendulum swing before it comes back to center and sanity?
