News Headlines (474) 23 March - 26 March 2014




ONLINE TODAY


24 March 2014 : You need to slow down a bit and try to just relax -- you're heading for a breakdown otherwise! Even the highest-functioning folks like you need some down time every now and then. Strange but interesting ideas will be bursting from your brain early today, but good luck getting any of them to become reality now. You are likely to deal with some unexpected eruptions from other people, which will definitely distract you. So don't have expectations that are too high, today. You need to slow down anyway -- you've been going too fast for too long and it's time to let other people take the lead. You might have the idea, but they have the energy and the resources necessary.

25 March 2014 : Keep both feet firmly planted on the ground today -- it's not a good time for fantasies or for too much ambition. You can get your way as long as you are realistic about it. If you're not moving anywhere, it doesn't matter how much drive you have! Today is a day for making the most of your potential. There is too much at stake right now to let other people take control or to let other people tell you what to do. You have a goal, and you have the skills you need to get there. Have confidence in your gut, and trust it to help you make the right choices. Stop looking to other people for guidance about things they don't even care about.

26 March 2014 : Try to blaze new ground today -- your energy is best spent pioneering. You may need to go it alone, because things are a bit too dicey for some of your stodgier friends or colleagues.

Arise, Russia! Arise! Your resurgence will dampen the U.S. arrogance around the world. We know why they were so frightened by Putin's re-election in 2012, because it showed a sign of your awakening as a world power. Anyway,  the post-policy reforms in various fields conducted by Soviet President Mikhail Gorbachev -- with his perestroika and glasnost -- did not make things getting better, but the country communion in the form of the Soviet Union fell apart. The occurrence of disengagement countries under the large umbrella of the Soviet Union based in Russia, also led to the spread of poverty in those countries.

Your resurgence is able to make the balance of the world, because the Soviet Union collapse has led the U.S. into unbridled world power,  has made the U.S. with their own wishes portraying their unfair roles. The U.S. will always think back to apply their ridiculous actions in every issue when they know you're behind it.

See? This is the U.S. style in how it embedded its strategic nails in the skin of its allies.  Hello friends, happy to see you as my friends, but I'm not too sure of what kind of friendship in between you all. To ensure that your friendship will not interfere with my interests in this alliance, I should always be between you and you, and as much as possible I like to host a meeting for all of you. Thus, you still be friends with each other by following my main pattern, you will always be in control of my hands, in the mastery of my hand. Thus: my position is always safely in amongst all of you, without you knowing that actually I'm your friendship regulator.

And I actually I never understand what solidarity is created between the U.S. and its allies, for surely if they are willing to open their minds, they will ask themselves, "Should I give the U.S. tolerance? A country that has been spying on my personal affairs? And to a country that has always put aside personal affairs of its allies in order to follow its paranoid instinct I have to smile sweetly and sit together in one table?" Argh, ... damn! Duh!

So, if you do not want to be called a fool, do not make friends with an idiot, because, though you know for sure that you're not actually stupid, but you will be classed as an idiot because you join the fools.

MAGAZINE : Presumed dead How do you mourn a missing person?
It's uncomfortable to be in a position when we have to continue to talk without knowing the truth of what we say. I'm sure they do not put their grief on only the outer statement. Sadness can not be expressed in formal speech and ends as you read an important announcement on the bulletin board. Although in the end they must give up their family's departure for ever but what they want is a proof and the fact that their relatives have died. If they are dead, where are their bodies? At least, where the plane debris? And the saddest part of all this is: they ask it to those who also do not know the answer. So, why do they get angry at those who also do not know the answer? Do not they know that if they know, then they will say all what they know? At this point I feel one important thing: our consciousness is something painful. Knowing or not is just the same: hurt.

Today's African Proverb
"Vultures are bald but they are not all elders" - A Yoruba proverb sent by Imonitie C. Imoisili, Lagos, Nigeria
The word of "bald" in my mind means only one thing: ... ehehehhee .. you know who he is. He's not a vulture, but he ... mmm ... maybe he's old enough, but he always looks younger than his age. He looks handsome and sexy because he's bald. A bald thinker. Guess who!

"Those who have not crossed the river yet should not laugh at those who are drowning" - Sent by Baissou SB, Mali

Uh, uh, but you can not prevent me not to laugh at the previous proverb, "The log on the woodpile does not laugh at the logs in the fire" (Newstories: News Headlines (451)).What made me laugh was the woodpile did not laugh at the log in the fire.

Madrid March: Thousands of anti-austerity protesters converge on Spanish capital. In Spain, discontent is literally on the march. Thousands of protesters on foot are converging on the capital Madrid. They're demanding an end to mass unemployment which is undermining the crisis-hit nation. 6 million people don't have a job and the anti-austerity sentiment is as strong as ever. The 'March for Dignity' is drawing people from all regions of Spain. Protests have been flaring up in various regions already - in the central part of the country, in the East and in the most populous southern Andalusia region. Unions plan to camp out in Madrid later today to protest the EU Troika's policies. Now years of recession have placed parts of Spanish society on the brink of poverty. Austerity measures first triggered public anger 3 years ago and have not receded since. Young people are leaving the country in droves looking for better opportunities, as over half of those out of work are under 24 years old. RT's Egor Piskunov reports.



Nationalist Rise: Israeli MPs express concerns for Jewish community in Ukraine. Well thousands have responded to the rise of the right by taking to the streets across Eastern Ukraine in protest at the interim authorities in Kiev. Donetsk has seen some of the biggest rallies to demand a referendum on a possible secession. Activists across Eastern regions say they're making a stand against the fascist leanings of a post-coup leadership. A group of Israel MPs has written an open letter to the President of the European Commission. They expressed their concern over the plight of Ukrainian Jews who they say are suffering from constant attacks. It's claimed this is a direct result of the rise of nationalists in Kiev. Activists from Ukraine's Jewish community have also traveled to Israel to seek support.

Join RT to look at the incredible model of Russia and to hear the story of its creation.



ЗАШТО? WHY? Revisiting NATO atrocities in Yugoslavia after 15 yrs (Part 1). Fifteen years after NATO's 78-day bombardment of Yugoslavia, memories of the bombing still haunt present-day Serbia. NATO killed over 2,000 people, hundreds were civilians, 88 were children. Serbs ask 'why?' above all. Why did NATO smash their cities, kill their children, bomb hospitals and schools? RT presents 'Zashto?' (Why?) on the trauma of terror in Serbia. ||  ■ Exactly 15 years ago, on March 24, NATO began its 78-day bombing of Yugoslavia (Part 2). The alliance bypassed the UN under a "humanitarian" pretext, launching aggression that claimed hundreds of civilian lives and caused a much larger catastrophe than it averted. RT presents its documentary 'Zashto?' from the war-torn country.

Prosecute NATO! Prosecute NATO! And you, United States, you are ultimately responsible for this tragedy, because you play an important role and carry out a major attack scenario outside an agreed plan of NATO member states. NATO has destroyed the principle of protecting non-combatants and proportionality in implementing actions in Kosovo. NATO attacks have exacerbated the destruction's scale of the original conflict into humanitarian disaster which has tarnished their own reputation.

The astounding violation point is not the reason for NATO's war in Kosovo, but more on intervention practices (in jus in bello) which was heavily criticized for causing many casualties (mainly civilians). The main factor is the use of inhumane weapons such as Depleted Uranium and Cluster Munition. NATO reasons when using these weapons was just a trial in original war. During the cold war, a variety of advanced weapons researched by the U.S. and its allies. NATO wanted to show its existence, progress and its influence through intervention in the Kosovo conflict.

At that time indeed, Russia dropped the veto, but does that mean that NATO can be stopped? No. U.S. and NATO alliance forces continue to intervene and even wars in various parts of the world.

Two equally stupid question. Then we got the same answer: laughing together wittily. This needs to be done to hone the sharpness of our humor. And then to understand how important the sense of realizing a role in a play. You can't think you are a hero when in fact you're just a rebel.

As long as you do not mention the Russian guys who you mean are Vladimir Putin, Mikhail Prokhorov and Mikhail Khodrokovsky... ahahahaa... ... why do you put your imagination too high to just famous names if there are a lot of old homeless men in Russia, for example? You also want them, all, hm?)
