People talk about money…

I would stock a couple of whiskey stills and stock copper tubing. You could do much worse than making moonshine:

Gold is important and the future rich will be physical gold and other precious metal holders. Physical as in hand and available. Paper as in money will be worthless. Other metals such as platinum and silver will be worth their weight in gold also, but in my world, the person that can make good alcohol is going to be wealthy, as in well fed. The one thing worth more than gold, diamonds and silver will be a good stiff drink. That is when the SHTF…

This is true no matter where you live…

The one thing I have seen, from Vietnam (Budweiser was our god, when they air dropped pallets of beer) to America, to Mexico, to Canada, to Britain and all the way to Russia. That person that can pull out a jar of pure crystal clear moonshine, has any price he wants. I grew up with this fact and have watched such a phenomenon even in the Tiny Russian Village…

Most of the time it is bartering that gets the moonshine, but always the moonshiner gets something of value, and I have seen people trade weapons and ammunition for a gallon jug of moonshine…

We had jugs by the dozen in the basement of grandpa’s house…
In Russia it is easy to grow tons of potatoes, in a very small area, this equates to lots of moonshine and the person willing to do it, has the value and people always know where to find that person….I have watched many a babushka wheel and deal with locals, as they desire to obtain that clear elixir of life…

My grandpa sold moonshine off the back of the wagon as we sold milk and eggs to the locals. That was the one substance I could not touch as a little kid. Grandpa would deal solely with people for the best moonshine around. Forget milk and eggs, moonshine rules the roost…

It dawned on me (When four and five years old,) that many people would take a drink of the hard stuff over food almost any day…

It is not hard to make moonshine, but it is hard and it is an art to make “good” moonshine…


How true:

In primitive society, man produced directly for the satisfaction of his own wants, but with the development of society came differentiation of function; exchange and barter arose, various trades sprang up, and with the necessity of commercial intercourse came the invention of money. – Charles A. Beard


Bartering is endless and priceless:

From the arrowhead maker for the village, the doctor who took chickens as payment and that babushka who makes the smoothest moonshine in the county. Bartering will always be there and if you make a product that is in demand, you will never starve…

That is all you should actually ask out of life….the rest is all trimmings on the windows…

According to the new western standards…

This just in:

1941, Pearl Harbor was not an “Act of War”, it was just a limited precision airstrike with “No Boots” on the ground…

So all was actually acceptable!

Right?

Even found a tweet tweet..

Real Syrian targets of France, Britain and USA…

“The real targets of the attacks of the US, Britain and France on April 14 were not only Barzah and Jaramani research facilities, but also Syrian military infrastructure, including airfields,” Major-General Igor Konashenkov, a Defense Ministry spokesman, said during a briefing in Moscow. “None of the airfields suffered significant damage” in the attack due to being protected by the air defense systems, he added.

The strike was an act of war. It was an aggressive first strike by one state against another in violation of the principle of respect for the sovereignty of countries. The peoples of the world have been demanding renunciation of such acts by one state against another for a long time and the demand has even been reflected in international law as a result of the horrors of WW2. I don’t think it was premature, I oppose it all together, without reservation or equivocation…

France, Britain and the United States crossed the Rubicon…

On the morning of April 14, 2018 an illegal and against all international rules & regulations, attacked Syria, a consortium embodied by France, United Kingdom and the United States of America, launched over a few more than 100 missiles at a proclaimed three targets in Syria. In actuality they targeted multiple sites within Syria. Including many airports and military bases. The lion’s share were (simply put) destroyed by the old Soviet built Syrian air defenses, but only three primary targets were either destroyed or damaged. That much is fact. This fact is even backed up by the consortium who illegally bombed Syria. They the consortium through the obedient media, rave about three targets hit with 100% of the 100+ missiles fired. They even show us images and they are proud of such weak images of very little damage…

The illicit attack was in procured by an illicit chemical weapons attack by terrorists, who filmed and coordinated said attack. This attack was supported by said consortium above, it allegedly happened in Douma, Syria and blamed on Assad and the Syrian military. We know that no such attack took place by Syria and or Russia. Or if it really had happened? No one proved it, before striking illegitimately. The targets were claimed to be chemical weapons facilities. They were not. It seems that one facility is very important for cancer researcha facility in which anti-venom for snake bites was being produced” (?? Not sure about that usage of building?? but I hear reports of: a cancer medication center , an abandoned warehouse and an abandoned empty factory, which was already bombed before by Israel), but it was a Scientific Research Center…and not a chemical weapons facility….for if it had been, the toxic clouds of death would have killed a whole bunch more civilians than Assad could ever have ever been accused of…

This is our world we live in a world that we are guilty until beaten to death first, where the truth comes out later and we say, “Oh well!”

The Syrians had complied and been approved by western agencies, that they had removed the chemical weapons from the country…

Veolia, the US firm contracted by the OPCW to dispose of part of the Syrian chemical weapons stockpile, has completed disposal of 75 cylinders of hydrogen fluoride at its facility in Texas. This completes destruction of all chemical weapons declared by the Syrian Arab Republic. The need to devise a technical solution for treating a number of cylinders in a deteriorated and hazardous condition had delayed the disposal process. Commenting on this development, the Director-General of the OPCW, Ambassador

Source: Destruction of declared Syrian chemical weapons completed

Yes they were…and it was in many instances overseen and destroyed by the US itself…

And this latest application of guilty first, comes after: the Skripal tale in Britain. Done to stir the waters in another direction, for the “Russian Nerve Agent” that was positively used, turns out to be “BZ Toxin” thus, panic ensued and the devils looked for a way to distract the masses…

I will make it clear:

The Rubicon has been crossed. I don’t care what anyone thinks and what anyone says. What has happened leading up to this fiasco and what happened in Syria just a few days ago and what is happening right now against Iran, Russia and Syria is an act of war…

Crossing the Rubicon, Caesar had a decision to make Rubicon River: Following the Senate’s orders = powerlessness before Pompey, Disobeying the Senate’s orders = Violating Roman law. Rubicon River is a river in northern Italy. Tradition and law said that soldiers had to disband before crossing this river into Italy “The die is cast. I have crossed the Rubicon.” He led his troops across the Rubicon River Once he crossed the river, he could not take back his decision to face (and fight) Pompey

I noticed China jumped off the fence finally….

Therefore, the “Crossing of the Rubicon” has stirred the beginning of the ending….what that ending will be is any ones guess at this point…

This makes it China, Iran, Syria and Russia binding together and getting tired of the crap…

Beat your chest and say how great this all is, but have you ever seen war? I have…

The soldier above all others prays for peace, for it is the soldier who must suffer and bear the deepest wounds and scars of war. – Douglas MacArthur

Keep beating the war drums, we will all pay for our follies…

War has been declared openly and there is no going back now…

Had a great weekend…

Went to the circus and had a blast…

The Circus at Globus…

Walked a bunch with Svetochka and we found an interesting place. It was a dacha (summer home) like spot within our city limits. Most likely an old dacha area encompassed by our city and it was never destroyed. It was cool….I would like to have a small section there and plant a garden every year. Thousands are doing just that. That is the Russian way….plant food for the winter…

Russia and Her Dacha Craze…

Time to get the Volga ready to go to the Tiny Russian Village…

I am going to install a radio that I bought from AliExpress almost a year ago. It has built in speakers and just needs the antenna hooked up, power and a ground wire. Then we have tunes to tool on down the road on…


Sveta and I watched an old movie from 1966 called The Russians Are Coming….I have to say Sveta loved it and the movie should be shown now. Sveta laughed and laughed and the movie would fit the games going on right now by America…

Without hostile intent, a Soviet submarine runs aground off New England. Men are sent for a boat, but many villagers go into a tizzy, risking bloodshed.


This is truth… (Bad language for sensitive ears!)

I like his too the point speaking…. Paul Joseph Watson is alright…

Yes the Russians are getting ready for a war…


Well with new sanctions against Russia today! It is time for Russia to believe what I have been saying, “The USA and lapdogs are at war with you! It is time to get ready Russia and expect nothing but total incomprehensible ignorance to come your way!”

Sorry Russia but a checker player does not have the same abilities as a chess player!

Russia plays chess while America plays checkers. It never ends well to mix the two entwined…

Spiez Laboratory: Trace of Western-made nerve agent seen in UK samples

April 14 at 12:28 PM

“samples from Salisbury contained BZ nerve agent and its precursor.”

Russia’s foreign minister says Moscow has received a document from a Swiss lab that analyzed the samples in the nerve agent poisoning of an ex-Russian spy, which points at a Western-designed nerve agent as a likely cause.

Okay Britain, explain the Spiez Laboratory in Switzerland’s findings…

Thank You

PS: BZ is only made in U.S., Britain and other NATO countries…

My my we failed terribly badly and hugely in Syria…

If you care?

Then look around and see what really happened in Syria?

The fact that last night’s airstrikes occurred just hours before OPCW (Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons) investigators were due to arrive at the scene of the alleged chemical weapons attack in Douma, near Damascus, also speaks to the West’s desperation. Rather than wait to hear news from those inspectors that would likely indicate or prove that no such chemical attack had occurred there last week, the Americans, French and British raced to ‘spend’ their ‘justification’ for military action before the cheque bounced. The investigators have now reached Damascus, and if they’re allowed to actually do their work properly, they will discover what their organization certified four years ago: the Syrian government has neither ‘stockpiles’ nor ‘production facilities’ of chemical weapons.

When you do things for all the wrong reasons and do not man up to your lies? Then things bite you in the ass…

I have to say: with all our western love for posting videos of our missiles hitting their targets and making big bangs. Something is much different this time. Not many big bangs and we seem to have a lack of exciting boom boom missile strikes…

Russian Defense Ministry said:

  • Four missiles were launched at the area of the Damascus International Airport. All these missiles were intercepted.
  • 12 missiles were launched at the Al-Dumayr Military Airport. All these missiles were intercepted.
  • 18 missiles were launched  at the Baly Military Airport. All these missiles were intercepted.
  • 12 missiles were launched at the Shayarat Military Airport. All these missiles were intercepted.
  • 9 missiles were launched  at the Mezzeh Military Airport. Five of them were intercepted.
  • 16 missiles were launched at the Homs Military Airport. 13 of them were intercepted.
  • 30 missiles were launched at targets in the areas of Barzah and Jaramani. Seven missiles were intercepted.

We have a whole bunch of videos showing that not much happened and the Syrians danced in the streets…

Hmm…

PS: I just am thankful for the seemingly infinite Russian wisdom and patience…

The damage is 7 empty buildings destroyed. Do they think we are idiots?

I believe the answer to the question would be… Yes, they do!

They don’t think we are stupid, they know so. Want proof? People still believe that 19 cave dwellers hijacked airliners and flew it into the World Trade Center, the Pentagon and an empty field. People bought into the Skripal poisoning lie, like fleas jumping on a dog. People believe that Assad gases his own people, as he is winning the war against Syria. People believe North Korea is a backward country and yet they can hack the greatest countries computer systems. (These are just recent proclamations.) People think what ever the Main Stream News tells them…

Do they think we are idiots? No….They know we are idiots, decades of mind numbing and buying the media lies proved that to them…

Did no good, but you have to keep trying… (04/14/2018)

I cannot stop telling the truth, if I do, then I become no better than you and them, by hiding my head in the sand…

Did no good, but you have to keep trying…

The Western Empire illegally bombed Syria anyway. Against all moral, legal and truth, Syria was bombed to make a few people happy and make a few people look tough. Very few people and that is what you should be worried about…

When a government lies, we know they lie and we do nothing and the government kills innocent people…..we are all complacent in the acts of death and chaos…

Did no good, but you have to keep trying…
