Russia Blasts U.S. Domination

Foreign Minister Says Global Struggle Against Terror Has Been "Privatized" By A Single Power

(AP)  Russia called Saturday for a revival of the global coalition that brought the world together to fight terrorism after Sept. 11, 2001 but started unraveling after the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq and what it called the subsequent domination of world affairs by a single power - a veiled reference to the United States.

"The solidarity of the international community fostered on the wave of struggle against terrorism turned out to be somehow `privatized'," Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov told the U.N. General Assembly's annual ministerial meeting.

He cited the U.S. invasion of Iraq "under the false pretext of fight on terror and nuclear arms proliferation" and questions of excessive use of force against civilians in counterterrorism operations in Afghanistan. And he said the recent crisis over Georgia's breakaway provinces of Abkhazia and South Ossetia proved again that "it is impossible or even disastrous to try to resolve the existing problems in the blindfolds of the unipolar world."

"Today, it is necessary to analyze the crisis in the Caucuses from the viewpoint of its impact on the region and the international community on the whole," Lavrov said.

"The world has changed again" he said. "It has become crystal clear that the solidarity expressed by all of us after 9/11 should be revived through the concepts cleared of geopolitical expediency and built on the rejection of double standards when we fight against any infringements upon the international law - be it on the part of terrorists, belligerent political extremists or any others."

Lavrov lashed out at Georgia's "aggression" and bombing of South Ossetia's sleeping capital of Tskhinvali on Aug. 8 and Russia's intervention "to repel aggression" and fulfill its peacekeeping commitments.

Georgia disputes this, claiming that the Russian side initiated the conflict. The United States and the European Union have backed Georgia, contending that the Russian response was disproportionate.

But Lavrov made clear that Moscow would not brook any challenge to its recognition of the unilateral declarations of independence of the two breakaway provinces.

"This problem is closed now. The future of the peoples of Abkhazia and South Ossetia has been reliably secured by the treaties between Moscow (and their governments)," he said. "The situation around the two republics is finally going to be stabilized."

Lavrov called for a new "solidarity" of the international community and a strengthened United Nations, saying only in the post-Cold War world can the world body "fully realize its potential" as a global center "for open and frank debate and coordination of the world policies on a just and equitable basis free from double standards."

"This is an essential requirement, if the world is to regain its equilibrium."

Declaring that Europe's security architecture "did not pass the strength test" in Georgia, Lavrov reiterated Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's proposal in June for a new Treaty on European Security.

It would strengthen peace and stability and participants would reaffirm the non-use of force, peaceful settlement of disputes, sovereignty, territorial integrity and noninterference in another country's affairs, he said. Finally, he added, it would promote "an integrated and manageable development across the vast Euro-Atlantic region."

Lavrov said work on the new treaty could be started at a pan-European summit and include governments as well as organizations working in the region. He referred to it as "a kind of `Helsinki-2'," a follow-up to the 1975 Helsinki Treaty between all European nations, together with the U.S. and Canada, which evolved into the present-day Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, the largest conflict-prevention and security organization on the continent.

In an interview published by the French, dedefensa.org journalist Amy Goodman s interview with General Wesley Clark stated:" Clark stated he viewed a defense department memo that described how the U.S. was going to take out seven countries in five years...."starting with Iraq,then Syria and Lebanon, then Libya,then Somalia and Sudan, and back to Iran."
On January 26, 1998 in a letter to the President the PNAC asked Clinton to invade Iraq and get rid of Saddam Hussein. Clinton refused their request and they got even. George W. Bush took their agenda and got it done...........Mission Accomplished !

The PNAC s goal has always been world market domination. In concert with Big Oil the Godfather of the PNAC George HW Bush held meetings with the Saudis at Walker Point in Maine prior to the Iraq invasion.

Iraq with the Russians were the Saudis main competition in global Oil markets. 2.5 million barrels a day of Iraqi crude was sold cheap in world markets angering the Saudis and Big Oil. Iraq was one of seven countries on the administrations hit list. Taking out Iraq did take out the competition enabling Big Oil and the Saudis free reign to drive oil prices up.
The Russians are not to blame. Blame the PNAC.......

Moscow -- Armed forces will be used if necessary, including preventively and with the use of nuclear weapons, for protection of Russia and its allies, the Russian Armed Forces Chief of the General Staff Yuri Baluyevsky said on Saturday.

"We do not intend to attack anybody. But all our partners must realize that for protection of Russia and its allies if necessary armed forces will be used, including preventively, including with the use of nuclear weapons," Baluyevsky was quoted by the Itar-Tass news agency as saying.

Baluyevsky reportedly made the statement at a scientific conference of the Academy of Military Sciences January 19, 2008.

The Weapons of Mass Destruction was Wall Street and deregulation of the markets. They have succeeded in destroying the US financial system. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED as bush would say it was never about Bin Laden it was always about ripping off Joe Q Public. 15 Years ago everyone was telling me if you are smart you''d invest your money in the stock market I was like I don''t believe in tying my money up in a company they make bad decision, they keep their company and I have to start over. (Wake up people)

Anyone who believes that there were no WMD in Iraq and that they weren''''t ferried out of there right before we invaded is a fool. I can''''t believe that everyday people such as myself can clearly see this but yet inspectors who are "trained" couldn''''t.

Since you are so sure about the WMD in Iraq, then, by all means, please tell us where the WMD were ferried to so the experts can go get them and destroy them!

Anyone who believes that there were no WMD in Iraq and that they weren''t ferried out of there right before we invaded is a fool. I can''t believe that everyday people such as myself can clearly see this but yet inspectors who are "trained" couldn''t. I''m not saying that we don''t need to get out of there and let them take back their own country and move on but there WERE WMDs there. Russia''s new president is on a power trip and no one is taking him seriously. He embarrasses himself and the legacy of peace between the US and Russia. He has nothing to gain but enemies and setbacks towards a peaceful world.
