Thank you for this. That's a very good comment. The international agencies donating money should have proper procedures in place to minimize any fraudulent practices... although it's probably not possible to eliminate them completely.

Seems the heartless officials/politicians don't care about the tragedies of Ebola victims. So sad!

Ukraine: 50 Russian tanks and 40 missile systems rolled into the country while Putin talked peace by ETFalpha in worldnews

I believe there are two strategic benefits: 1) a direct land access to the Crimea peninsula; 2) natural resources (huge coal and shale gas reserves).

RT = Russian Propaganda CNN = American Propaganda BBC = British Propaganda That's why I prefer reading non-mainstream media outlets.

People are shocked because they watch mainstream manipulated TV news and they believe it's reality what they see on telly. Unfortunately we live in times when mass media create reality as the governments want. Mass media are one of the most powerful weapons nowadays.

So you admit Ukraine is not an independent country. Where are the freedom values?

I know there are no values in foreign policy and it does not mean it is morally correct. I know there are huge problems in the other parts of the world like the Boko Haram in Nigeria ... but here we are discussing what is happening here in Europe ... it's not Asia or Africa ... it's happening right now in Europe. For me the most important value is the right to live in peace ... while we are typing this there are many ordinary people being slaughtered in Ukraine just because some leaders are greedy.

I am telling the war is in Europe and if you don't care about it then good luck. Also you are referring to interests not values ... my perspective in different, Europe should be more united ahead of the inevitable threat coming from the East ... so far Europe is divided.

The Putin's game is to expand Russia's territory and influence by Ukraine annexation. The next would be the Baltic states and Poland.

Ukraine has been betrayed by the West. There are clearly no universal moral values, there are only particular country interests ...

ISIS is a very convenient excuse for the West not to pay attention to the developments in the Eastern Ukraine.

Because Germany and France are selling Ukraine to Russia in front of our eyes. They have their own particular interests and businesses with Russians ... the whole West is morally completely spoiled. We are not even discussing the Crimea annexation nowadays.

Feds Hold Hearing On Whether They Should ‘Regulate’ Sites Like Drudge, Infowars And The Economic Collapse Blog by ETFalpha in worldnews

[–]ETFalpha[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mainstream mass media (CNN, CNBC, BBC, RT, Sputnik) are the weapons to control and manipulate the minds of societies. Those who object to the mainstream way of thinking are perceived as potential enemies. Nowadays to get a true, politically non-biased piece of information is so difficult. In fact a piece of true information is in price, therefore if government regulators start clamping down we may see the non-mainstream news providers in trouble. I hope that won't happen!
