US mulls sending anti-aircraft weapons to Syrian opposition
According to an AP report, President Barack Obama may authorize the shipment of new air defense systems to rebel forces in Syria. Citing an unnamed US official, the AP says Obama is considering the idea of sending man-portable air-defense systems, also known as MANPADs, to Syrian opposition groups by way of employing new ways to put pressure on Syrian President Bashar al-Assad and boost the opposing rebels, who have lost ground in the conflict over the last few months. The move would mark a notable shift compared to the White House's past statements.
Officials then said the US would send anti-tank rockets and humanitarian aid to the opposition, but noted MANPADs – portable missile-launchers – would not be part of the package, due to fears they could land in extremist hands and potentially be used to take down commercial airliners.
West 'twisted arms' of 50 countries to get support for UN resolution on Ukraine - Lavrov
Western powers had to "twist the arms" of some 50 countries to get their support for the UN General Assembly resolution on Ukraine, Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov told Sergei Brilev's Vesti v Subbotu (News on Saturday) television programme on March 29.
"This is done using different ways. For starters, our Ukrainian neighbours were advised to make the text as non-confrontational and balanced as it could only be and to state 'positively' that the territorial integrity of Ukraine should be respected. Who would have objected? But that's not even a half of the truth, it's just a tiny bit of it… after that, counting on one's naivete, they say: 'What a good resolution! Just sign it and become a co-author," Lavrov said.
US sanctions against Russia to blow up America's world domination
Washington, angered by Russia, has decided to punish it and has made Brussels act likewise. Barack Obama has created a precedent by personally reading out the names of those on the anti-Russian sanctions list. Washington has been angered by Russia's reunification with Crimea. It is actually reunification, rather than annexation, as Washington and Brussels claim, for Russia can't annex what had been part of it for centuries.

‘Against democratic principles’: EU’s Ashton denounces nationalists’ pressure on Ukraine parliament
Oh - now that they are protesting against the new pro-EU Putsch regime they helped install, the Right Sector's pressure on the Rada is according to Baroness Ashton "against democratic principles". Hello - hypocrisy, much? Where was this condemnation of their "democratic" pressure two months ago when they were throwing Molotov cocktails, seizing government buildings, and killing young men in uniform in the street?!?
The EU's Orwellian double standards and immorality makes me physically sick.
On Progressives and Pro-aggressives - Written by Reno Omokri
Article written by Reno Omokri, Special Assistant to the President on New Media.
All advertising is based on the theory of Proof by Repeated Assertion which provides that a proposition repeated and restated regularly using the mass media comes to be accepted as true irrespective of any contradictions in the proposition being asserted. This theory is very effective and even more so in the modern world where attention spans are limited and people read headlines and draw conclusions without reading the story.
