On April 23, 2012 article went online in which I. the largest donations and campaign machine in the world, Avaaz (currently about 16 million "members"), previously unknown unearthed The article as popular as ever.

Ankhar Kochneva (Source: Facebook)

Recently I stumbled upon a statement of the Syrian Ukrainian journalist Ankhar Kochneva that had a strange encounter with the Avaaz campaign director Stefanie Brancaforte in Moscow.

However, in order: Ankhar Kochneva is living in Damascus, Arabic-speaking free Journalstin, which also leads to your blog (s). She traveled widely in Syria, in particular to obtain information about the rebel militias. That earned her a repeated death threats. Through their language skills Kochneva could win a lot more insight than many Western journalists. In addition, she gave Russia Today (RT) twice an interview, where you can see many details and information you will not find elsewhere.

In an interview on 8 July 2012 in RT she explains, among other things, how it came to the Syrian refugees in Turkey: Rebel channeled the inhabitants of towns fought to Turkey by cutting them off to other roads. (Normally they would have tried to find shelter with relatives). Kochneva reports of blatant human rights violations by the rebel militias such as kidnapping and torture even in children, assassinations of Christian priests and even a mufti-son etc. (more ...)

Natural Gas: Energy of the 21st century and the new energy space and the Eastern Mediterranean

Friday, November 09, 2012

At this point I already had an article about the huge new gas finds in the eastern Mediterranean adjusted. As a reminder, in 2009 and 2010, the Tamar and Leviathan gas fields were discovered off the coast of Israel, which immediately raised questions as to any claims of Lebanon and the Palestinians (in Gaza are assumed greater occurrence). However, Israel has not signed the international Seerechtsstatuten so that the staking of gas "claim" is not without problems.

In the United States there is a geological report, which is always updated. This "US Geological Survey" (USGS) for 2010 noted on April 8 for the gas reserves in the eastern Mediterranean:

2010: Marking the Levante gas field, Eastern Mediterranean; Source USGS

In May 2010, the USGS gave an estimate of the entire eastern Mediterranean arch including the Nile Delta and Turkey the coast and came up with a number of 345 tcf of gas and 3.4 billion barrels of oil. In order to appreciate the immense deposits better, here are the comparative figures from other natural gas regions of the world: (more ...)

Spain crisis in movie poster

Monday 08 October 2012

I never would have imagined that German taxpayers even have to stand up for Spanish banks.

When in 2007 Köfferchenträger knocked on the door of my former real estate and construction offices in Spain's southern coast and makes an urgent demanded that also encourage immigrants to purchase homes, I knew what the clock had struck. A Romanian construction worker z. B. should after only 11 months (!) With a Spanish employment (nouns) are treated as a Spaniard and receive appropriate credits at home or buy a home. (A durchsschnittliche Three-room apartment then cost 150,000 euros).

You need neither imagination nor expertise to be believed that an immigrant couple (usually he worked in construction, she cleaned) can offer no collateral except his labor force. Falls off only the cleaning job, the mortgage can not be controlled. Now, however, both jobs were lost ... (more ...)

On August 18, 2012 appeared in "Open Democracy" an article of Jordanian freelance journalist and writer Ahmad Barqawi from Amman. Not only the content of its Syria-analysis, but also the fact that Open Democracy published his article is sensational.

Can Pussy Riots overthrow Putin?

Pussy Riot - the sentence to two years in prison camp - is in itself, considered in isolation, an overreaction of the Russian "regime" against three completely harmless, spontaneous girl. Now, the freedom of speech, freedom of assembly, freedom yes at all times in Russia are in danger again.

The "musicians" had jumped on the ambo of Christ the Savior Church in Moscow, the elevated location, proclaimed by the Orthodox priest from the gospel. Men may not enter it without an explicit invitation, women are only allowed during the marriage.

Putin highest himself proposed a lenient sentence for the three BösewichterInnen that they had not pointed but without mocking, you may just imagine what would have happened with the girls in a similar situation in Israel in a synagogue or in the Caucasus in a mosque - the security forces would not be able to rush fast enough - but then failed, as expected by the Western media to act as a dictator by not intervened in the litigation.

A wave of solidarity in Pussy Riot style sprout like weeds from the soil:
A nude sawed in Ukraine in a square in Kiev a large wooden cross with the Redeemer just above the ground with a chain saw off and then fled.

Actions such as the three-punk sluts are copied worldwide mindless-ape and sold as "revolutionary" act. 121 German parliamentarians also wanted to join in there and be in solidarity. (more ...)

Under the chairmanship of the FDP Westerwelle arrived in the general election on 27 September 2009, the historic 14.6 percent best result ever.

In recent weeks and months, but it seems to be going downhill with him: Current images of the Foreign Minister on the side of the American Secretary of State Hillary Clinton show him as a picture of misery. He looks more and more slumped in itself, empty of view .

At the conference of the "Friends of the Syrian people," the beginning of July in Paris Hillary Clinton set the tone.

The two countries that had shunned Paris and repeatedly prevented a resolution in the UN Security Council on Syria after the model of Libya, the unrestricted dislike the US Secretary subjected to.

Western community of values: Keyword Soering

Monday, July 16, 2012

Book: The Juror (2012)

"We do not need to talk about the common values ​​that we share." Or so are the mantras of transatlantic or Western community of values ​​about the wordless joy of "shared values".

Unfortunately, the feel-good formula is not reliable and only serves as a soft drug, which befuddled the ratio and discussions disabled.

Because there is very probably desire to talk:

Since 1985, sits a German national in US prisons, without the policy cares a damn about him:

Jens Soering, the German diplomat's son, who confessed to two murders took off from youthful stupidity and wrong understanding of chivalry that he did not commit. Not Helmut Kohl, not Schroeder, not Merkel and not the associated foreign minister cared. (more ...)

Wednesday, July 04, 2012

On 20.6.12 led Bloomberg TV interview with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former Secretary of State James Baker. Interviewer was Charlie Rose, Topic: US diplomacy. During the conversation it came to Iran to speak.

The scary thing is not only that both politicians obviously mentally ignore in an inhuman manner on any (international) law, but in what obscene, the US Secretary of laughs at the Bakers statement, the US should turn to Iran.

The scene shocked me deeply. One should not lightly others deny the humanity, but it would be reversed naive to want to "people like you and me" call politicians per se.

This makes drunken, living in a completely different world species, highly amused at the thought of "off" another country. The horny laughter cascade this woman is me sound like a long time in the ears. The sequence should show all the idiots still behind the much-vaunted "Western community of values". Wake Up!
