1. Lodestar says, "it's the same private interests that now own/run our government." You are correct-o.

Of course, it's early in the day, yet. The gatekeepers will be along shortly to point out that Ria Novosti is not a credible source because.....well, just because.

Never mind that a wide range of credible sources all over the net are pointing out the same thing...that the US Gov't. recognizes a COUP that put in place a bunch of neo-fascists, and yet howls about, and calls illegitimate, a REFERENDUM where the PEOPLE chose Russia over Wall Street thugs and the IMF.

This is just same ol', same ol'. Anyone who has read John Perkins' "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man" will understand. Regime change for the benefit of the 1%. And anything that has the filthy hands of the IMF in it should be rejected immediately.

And former Rep. Kucinich is exactly right when he says, "...if nations bring in private armies you are looking at combustible material here because there is no control. The private armies will pursue private interests. They don't care about anything except making more money. And the more war there is, the more money they make,” emphasis added.
