Jim Brown / OneNewsNow | December 2, 2008
A New York Post columnist and former Bush foreign policy adviser warns that the current Kremlin leadership is trying to extend Russia’s sphere of influence beyond Asia, the Caucuses, and Europe.
Russian warships were recently deployed to Venezuela to coincide with President Dmitry Medvedev’s visit to Caracas — the first ever by a Russian president. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez said Russia’s deployment of the naval squadron was "not a provocation," but rather "an exchange between two free countries."
Peter Brookes, a senior fellow for national security affairs at The Heritage Foundation, says Russia is signaling it has interests in Latin America.
"I think it’s to strategically distract the United States. I think it’s a bit of payback for American warships which went into the Black Sea — which Russia considers a Russian lake — during the Georgian crisis a few months ago," he contends. "So I think that there’s a lot of symbolism here in terms of this ship visit. I think it also says that Russia sees itself as a world power; it’s not just a regional power."
A day after the U.S. presidential election, in his first major address since taking office, Russian President Medvedev delivered an extremely anti-American speech. Brookes believes that speech was a signal to the U.S. and the incoming Obama administration.
However, he notes that the Russians have backed down a bit from their "harsh rhetoric" after an Obama foreign policy adviser said the president-elect had not committed to deploying a missile defense shield in Eastern Europe.

these two countries will never fight each other ..they both just like the idea of psyching each other out
December 2nd, 2008 at 4:49 pm
The United States is responsible for the bad state of relations between the two countries.
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:01 pm
It really doesn’t matter if Obama/U.S. approve the missile shield. If they did, the Russians would never let the silos be built. The construction sites of those silos would be bombed before any missiles would be loaded into them.
The Russians wants to cooperate. We don’t.
They need to be out allies.

War between these two will occur. It is planned to occur but it will get out of hand and escalate past what the elite planned for.
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:14 pm

We are adopting soviet politics and tactics,(the ultimate police state)where do people think the DC crooks and NWO people got their ideas! Seems to me the powers that be love russia and red policys,DC and academia are fully staffed with russian lovers,naw things aint good here in USA but I wont be moving to russia anytime soon,like ever!
December 2nd, 2008 at 5:35 pm
There won´t be a war, but they sure like to scare the world into thinking so.
Both countries benefit from hating eachother on the surface. So the people rally under the leader.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:02 pm
there will be a war and you better wake up and realize what is really going on here,how many times do you have to be told about albert pike and his 3 war scenario,
WE FUNDED AND ARMED RUSSIA INTO BEING

FDR wanted to negotiate with the Soviets @ the end of WWII, but everyone inside the state department (Dulles brothers) wanted just the opposite, and that happened after FDR died, and Truman dropped the atomic bombs on Japan.
If FDR lived past the end of WWII, the world woudl be a different place.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:18 pm
never say never. we hated russia as a a nation 40 years ago, not iraq, now look at iraq, it’s destroyed and being re developed by big business. who whould of guessed that in 68? so many people on these forums seem to jump to conclusions with nothing but a guess to begin with. we will fight russia, we won’t fight russia. who knows. i don’t have a wealth of facts but i explain that i am guessing and why. we will go to war with most of the world is what i think. here is why, simple and obvious to me–if i wanted 149 gangs to desolve and all be under my control, i would get them to kill eachother first.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:36 pm
I think we will war. war with nukes- or just use all those dirty bombs we have. Russia and US both border artic circle…’crying wolf’ tactic has been used to build complacency. I really wish Alex Jones would wake up to the fact there are ‘other’ forces working on this planet. AND forget about the Jesus/Christianity cover-up. Too much evidence has surfaceed on this.- and please- it’s not satan. Think about it, it doesn’t make sense to dessimate this world if you are human(THINK)..or the US but this is what is happening. Most of banking/power elites are US/UK. Also, why the h*ll do you think there is a base on the moon and NASA is desparately trying to get the orion air space shuttle completed by 2019. Something else in a physical form is promoting this hatred/destruction. Alex gets upset because people are complacent- Religion- promotes complaceny- and it was designed that way. ie, Not to worry, Jesus will save us. BS- what is the saying in the bible- ‘the meek will inheriet the earth” this is a wonderful use of reverse psychology….so people will stay weak….
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:37 pm
When an agressor like russia becomes more and more agressive umong within its own country it means the system is falling apart. Russian people are changing their minds on the Medvedev/Poetin “cabinet”. Opponents like Kasparov are gaining more and more support. Plus the fact Russia is bankrupt, its gonna be over within two years. But on the other hand, alot can happen in two years.. But i just cannot believe Russia is gonna be the main focus.
But maybe that depends of the direction our Polish friend Brzezinski want to take the US.. But i believe he wrote in his last book the newest objective is gonna be the involvement of China in the Middle East. And by the way, does Clinton knows the name of the president by now? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eyDkzmZJ3qE
If all of this wasn’t so serious it’s almost funny. Unbelievable what’s happening now, and how you, the american people, have been lied to over the last decades.
December 2nd, 2008 at 6:39 pm
When and where did President Medvedev say Russia is ‘an anti-American’ world power? I don’t see where it is claimed or shown that he has ever said that – - – more BS propaganda, no doubt.
Those of us who follow presstv.com, Russia Today.com and redtram.com have a different view of Russia than as ‘an anti-American’ world power; I see modern Russia as a coming first rate power in every sense of the word, without the insane need to kill somebody – - – anybody – - – for any reason or none at all, that this government has had for 40 years at least. Gee, Greenland just had a referendum wherein the people voted to (basically) secede from Denmark; Greenland has oil and lots of other stuff, a population of less than 60 thousand and no military – - – they should be a walkover for our greedy pig politicians and oilcan weenies. Russia has lots of oil and other truly tempting stuff, and a rapidly modernizing military with state of the art weapons and weapons platforms that leave ours in the dust, so if you’re going to beat a country up and steal the oil, which one are you going to go for, hmmm? Russia is a responsible world citizen these days, not like 30-40 years ago and is learning from everybody else’s mistakes – - – Russia is ensuring its economic emergence by making good marks with non-alingned nations, nationaist governments which have no use for the international banksters and globalistas, who have a legitimate interest in fair trade and hold ‘free trade’ in utter contempt. Russia is allying itself with all sorts of countries including Iran, Venezuela, Bolivia, Peru, Cuba, Brazil and probably Iraq when that poor humiliated country ever throws off the American chains – - – we, on the other hand, are currently a second world nation at best with a worn out and under equipped military, no economy left at all and only the ride down the sewer to fourth world status that we can look forward to. Have a nice day, folks.

To russia–Please nuke D.C. when they are all in session.
December 2nd, 2008 at 7:43 pm
In these crazy Ultra-Zionists hawks own words , a society can not exist without a enemy. So if there isn’t a enemy they make one. They need “terror” whether real or staged, so it will exist as long as people are so easily deceived and buy these Zionist hawks BS that they feed to you daily on TV, movies or newspapers. They will have more terror to come maybe doing something stupid like provoking Russia or just the average Arab terror, it is here and there is more unless you wake up and take back your country that has been hijacked.

i just bought 100 rounds of amo the brand is wolf hollow point .made in russia. go figure?
December 2nd, 2008 at 8:27 pm
I think there will be war on a massive scale, the war of all wars. It will not however be the traditional nation vs. nation. Unfortunately, the Illuminati have more than likely infiltrated the vast majority of governments so whether this will be staged or genuine may never be known. It may just as well be a war against the people.
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:01 pm
Ridiculous, there is only one anti-American world power and that is the United States government.
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:01 pm
russia + china vs. america

i heard a minister on tv when i was very young,during the 60’s, say that the meek word translated disipline
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:16 pm
SHEESE, SO IS THERE GOING TO BE A WAR OR NOT!!!!!! I’m trying to decide if I should make vactation plans next summer and if there is a war with Russia that could alter my plans. What is it? War….or no War. Maybe I should go watch “Deal or no Deal” and pick a numbered box.
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:24 pm
Lol, good one, marklar
December 2nd, 2008 at 9:33 pm
The whole idea of nations being anti american or pro american is just the schoolyard bully syndrome. Americans should be the most confident and secure people on earth, instead they are fearfull and justify invasion of other contries on percieved potential threats. The manipulation of the media simply blinds people to the atrocities committed in the name of peace. But of couse not all americans are ignorant of this. lets hope the future holds hope for everyone no matter what their country is or their opinion is.

#24. I go on vacation every winter and I will continue to do so untill I can’t afford it. Which might not be too long from now the way things are going. My point is that Yes you should make your plans. I am very afraid of heights yet I fly anyway despite it.
Any of us could be killed by just about anything on any day. What ya supposed to do.
Prepare for the shit but live your life between now and then.
December 2nd, 2008 at 10:05 pm
At this point, I favor Russia over other European countries.
And I agree marklar #23. Our gov’t is anti-American. I want to succeed with 33 other states and keep our Constitution but ditch the Nazi Washington FEDS.
December 2nd, 2008 at 11:17 pm
Thank God that someone is standing up to the American-British Banking Cartel, if only because they are completly racist, and believe in Pan-Slavism and hate Jews… Thats good for me since I am a Slav, besides I hate Israel, and their country should be burned to the ground. Furthermore, I think the Ruskis know they have been played by the NWO (Bilderberg Group), and will get their revenge… Hopefully the Russians actually win, would that be so bad against the Bilderberg group?

You see, the Russians think and plan way ahead. They know that when the American People finally have to rise up and shoot all of the brainwashed psycho’s that are in their government because they are declaring martial law and hauling Americans off the Fema Camps. They will be killed by RUSSIAN made Hollow Point Wolf Brand Bullets !!!
Yep, you gotta hand it to those Russians, they are really smart, and they plan way ahead.
When you finally have to fire those Russian made Hollow Point Wolf Brand Bullets at your own government, you’ll think of that fact to yourself while you are firing them. You’ll really be happy that they work good too, at that point in time…
December 3rd, 2008 at 3:55 am
Russia doesn’t want a central bank owned by the same scum of here therefore it is a major enemy. If those who own the Federal Reserve could control Russia like they do the U.S. then Russia would be a wonderfull ally.
December 3rd, 2008 at 7:44 am
These articles couldn’t get much weaker…nor could the headlines be more sensational!
The majority of articles being submitted on Infowars…contain the very things that “truth seekers of any moral value” denounce:
Spin!
Sensationalism!
Propaganda!
Innuendo!
Baseless Assumptions!
Half truths and in many cases no truth at all!
.
It’s a sad day for so called “truth”

Isn’t russia not part of the global elite.
some answer me
December 3rd, 2008 at 8:54 am
I agree there articles on this website never measure up to their headlines
December 3rd, 2008 at 9:51 am
Seems that Russia and Great Briton have been at odds for a long time despite the blood ties to the throne of Czar Nicholas. Ive heard that during Americas civil war that Russia vowed to help the North if England got involved with the South.
What intrigues me is why was Russia ever involved with Hitler? An American backed fascist stooge. I say American backed because of the Harriman,Bush,Dulles connection that helped re-arm Germany after WW1. There was English support for Hitler too. Bank of England, Windsors were NAZI supporters. So why did Russia help Germany invade Poland? Then in the end of it all Germany tries to invade Russia. Then a Cold War would ensue after the dust settled.
Hasn’t the main force behind reclaiming Russia to the English throne been England using its military strongman (the US) to do its bidding?
Another thing Ive never been able to figure out is why did Wall ST banks support the Bolsheviks? Was that more Zionists supporting Zionists? Was Marx a Zionist? Did they work for Great Briton?
So much doubleplay at work. I know that Russia hasn’t always been the good guy, no nation has but it’s interesting to me that they refuse to be a puppet of the West although they will do business with them. I think the West sees Russia as the last holdout before they can implement a New World Order. Funny to me too the enmity between Russia and the Vatican. That I believe is well warranted , all one has to say there is look how the ‘Holy Roman Empire’ was run.
In some ways I admire Russia, tough people that got handed the short end of the stick in this globalisation scheme. In other ways Im amazed that they were involved in ‘pogroms’ and were in league with Hitler for a time until they realized they had been doublecrossed.
December 3rd, 2008 at 11:32 am
i agree with Aussie – this article is misleading, however it does amaze me how people seem to associate a whole nation with the will of their governments, like the American government – they say one thing and then do unconstitutional things, but propagandaring the public at the same time.
what im trying to say is in the bigger picture, its more like governments vs governments but the people, the citizens of any given country are made to suffer for it.
like the idiot who commented ‘Isreal must be burned to the ground’ – - hang on a minute, there are people in Isreal just like us going to work, just trying to live and get by that do not condone what there governments do. everybody needs to realise you cant judge a whole countrys attitudes by the actions of its government, best of all people from the U.S where the government gives you 2 spoons of spin a day whilst arming everyone else in the undeveloped world.

December 3rd, 2008 at 1:41 pm
Since so many of you “Info Warriors” are convinced there will be bloody blood shed among the great Northern Powers.
Tell me!
Who will win this “Great War”!?
December 3rd, 2008 at 2:13 pm
Russia will win.. they will become the Country of Great Destruction. With 22,000 nukes.. 12 years ahead of us in war technology. Its Prophecy. Move out of the US before its too late. Some Jews knew of the Holocaust before WWII, some escaped, you can too.
December 3rd, 2008 at 2:49 pm
Always remember, nobody wins a nuclear war. With that said, it is absolutely crucial that a war like this is not started. Saber rattling has got to stop right now!!!! Nothing makes the NWO more upset than powerful peace movements that make a difference. Exposure of these secret organizations have got to spread to the main stream.
December 3rd, 2008 at 2:50 pm

#48 & 49 CC. Boo Hoo. You got MacDonalds syndrome, gotta have it now. Patients, learn it. Someone (globalist bankers) will benefit from nuclear war or there will not be one.
If their anti American that really means there are anti US Corp. globalist puppets. I’ll bet they dont have a problem with the American people or even the system of government were suppose to have but dont, but do have a problem with the corruption and deceit and hidden agenda’s of Washington.
I hope the Russians are reading this too. Send help we need a shit load of RPG’s.

The Putin-Chavez crusade: Pressing the Empire and making a business with the ‘Cold War’:
http://www.cherada.com/articul.....e-cold-war
Below the “revolutionary mystique” Chavez and his political and business environment “boliburgueses” are expert in doing business with oil from PDVSA. Under the strategy of “cold war” with the U.S., Putin and his circle of technocrats want to sell weapons and oil to all mankind regardless of ideology.

Speaking to reporters at an Asia-Pacific forum in Peru, the Russian leader held out hope of improved ties under the administration of the future U.S. president. Obama has yet to state his position on the George W. Bush administration’s
