24 February 2015. Our Great Russian Motherland: Shuldan in the Crimea

00 Shuldan. Crimea. Russia. 24.02.15

______________________________

This is part of a cave-monastery founded in the 14th century, but this tower only dates to the early 2000s. Shuldan isn’t part of the Republic of the Crimea, it’s actually part of the territory of the Federal City of Sevastopol. The Uniate creepozoids in the “Ukrainian” government harassed this monastery, but that stopped when the region reunited with Russia in the early 2000s. That’s why no Orthodox person can support the junta now sitting in Kiev, not only does it smash its boot full-force into the faces of ordinary people and wage a war of aggression against Novorossiya, it supports the Uniate and schismatical enemies of the Church. That’s why no Orthodox Christian can support the Republican Party or “conservatism”… these factions support the Uniate junta… just sayin’…

A scientist stands on the edge of a newly formed crater on the Yamal Peninsula in northern Siberia (Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug. Tyumen Oblast. Ural Federal District RF). A group of scientists went on an expedition initiated by the Russian Centre of Arctic Exploration to research the crater after pilots captured it on video in July 2014, which attracted the public’s attention. Participants descended about 16 metres (52.4 feet) to reach the frozen surface of the base of the crater, which was a lake at least 10 metres (32.8 feet) deep. Experts, including geologists and historians, haven’t yet decided about the funnel’s origin.

8 February 2015. Why the American “Sanctions” Will Fail… Russia Makes and Produces Everything That It Needs

00 Kaluga steel mill. Russia. 08.02.15

______________________________

Loudmouthed asshats such as John McCain, Marco Rubio, and Ted Cruz boast that they’re going to bring Russia to its knees. Well… that’s never worked in the past… in the present, Russia ain’t Upper Volta! The image shows a workman taking a sample of steel from an intermediate ladle at OAO NLMK Kaluga, a branch of the Novolipetsk Steelworks. Russia has all the natural resources that modern technology requires… it has the industry to produce what it needs. In short, the US Republican Party is chock fulla shit. Actually, the idiots hurt the USA with their policies… by strengthening the dollar in forex markets, it made American goods more expensive in foreign markets, depressing demand. It also helps the Russian import substitution programme. Once again, the GOP proves that its title of the “Stupid Party” is well-merited.

All those who march on Russia will be put to death…
