"If all else fails go to war"
Things are deteriorating very quickly in Ukraine and as the economy and financial systems collapses the US is looking to war.
Stephen Cohen says Obama is on the phone with Poroshenko, Yatsenyuk and others 3 times a week - Geoffrey Pyatt probably daily.
The Saker will be preoccupied with other matters right now as a deadly tropical cyclone bears down on Florida.

BREAKING
- UAF Massively shelling DPR - Drastic Deterioration

“Emergency statement: UAF massively shelling DPR, Poroshenko intends to resume hostilities — Ministry of Defence”
On the evening of August 26, DPR Deputy Commander, Eduard Basurin, made an emergency statement: “The situation in the DPR has drastically deteriorated.
The Kiev fascist regime has given the criminal order to shell our territories.
As
a result, from 5 P.M. punitive forces began massively shelling
positions of the DPR army and the civilian areas of Belaya Kamenka,
Novolaspa, Staroslava, and Staroignatovka.
The
fascists have used heavy artillery prohibited by the Minsk Agreements
against the civilian areas of Aleksandrovka and Marinka. The
outskirts of Donetsk have been struck.
The
shelling has been carried out from the positions of the 72nd
mechanized brigade under the command of the criminal Grishchenko, as
well as the 19th infantry battalion. The enemy is using ACS howitzers
of 152 and 122 mm, mortars of 120 and 80 mm, and tanks.
A
residential block in the Kubyshevsky district of Donetsk suffered a
direct hit from a fascist tank.
According
to our estimate, the enemy is trying to provoke a response by our
troops and with such activity convince the army command of the DPR to
prepare for an offensive in this direction of the UAF.
It
is safe to say that the criminal fascist regime is purposefully
trying to disrupt the Minsk Agreement. The bloodthirsty Kiev puppets
are out to disrupt the establishment of peaceful life in the
Republic, thereby showing the whole world their inability to conduct
civilized negotiations. The paranoiacs in power are leading Ukraine
into the abyss!
The
President of Ukraine seeks to resume hostilities and lead a new
escalation of tensions in Eastern Europe, and therefore, we appeal to
the people and officers of Ukraine: sabotage the criminal orders of
the UAF command, show acts of defiance, and demonstrate an absence of
support for the aggressive plans of Poroshenko.
Come
over to the side of the DPR, stand with us to protect the civilian
population of Donbass!
We
call on the leaders of European countries and Russia, as well as
international organizations, to stop the criminal actions of
Poroshenko in Donbass, by which the Ukrainian president seeks to
unleash a new conflict in Eastern Europe and drown Donbass in blood!”
- Eduard Basurin stated.
Сегодня
вечером, 26 августа, заместитель
Командующего корпусом ДНР Эдуард Басурин
сделал экстренное заявление: «Обстановка
в Донецкой Народной Республике резко
обострилась.
Киевский
фашистский режим отдал преступный
приказ на обстрелы наших территорий.
В
результате чего, каратели с 17 часов
начали массированные обстрелы позиций
армии ДНР и гражданских объектов в
районе населенных пунктов Белая Каменка,
Новоласпа, Староласпа и Староигнатовка.
Фашисты
применили запрещенную Минскими
договоренностями тяжелую артиллерию,
в том числе, по мирным населенным пунктам
Александровка и Марьинка. Ударам
подверглись окраины города Донецка.
Обстрелы
ведутся с позиций 72 отдельной
механизированной бригады под управлением
преступника Грищенко, и 19 отдельного
мотопехотного батальона. Противник
применяет САУ и гаубицы 152 мм, 122 мм,
минометы 120 мм и 80 мм, а также танки.
В
Куйбышевском районе города Донецка
отмечается прямое попадание из танка
фашистов в жилую пятиэтажку.
По
нашим оценкам, противник пытается
спровоцировать наши войска на ответные
действия, а также своей активностью
убедить командование армии ДНР в
готовящимся на этом направлении
наступлении ВСУ.
Можно
смело говорить, что преступный фашистский
режим целенаправленно пытается сорвать
Минские договоренности. Кровожадные
киевские марионетки всеми силами
стремятся нарушить процесс налаживания
мирной жизни в Республике, тем самым
показывая всему миру несостоятельность
вести цивилизованные переговоры.
Параноики у власти ведут Украину в
пропасть!
Президент
Украины стремится возобновить боевые
действия и привести к новой эскалации
напряженности на Востоке Европы, в связи
с чем, обращаемся к народу и офицерам
Украины, саботируйте преступные приказы
командования ВСУ, проявляйте акты
неповиновения, демонстрируйте отсутствие
поддержки агрессивных планов Порошенко.
Переходите
на сторону армии ДНР, станьте вместе с
нами на защиту мирного населения
Донбасса!
Призываем
лидеров европейских государств и России,
а также международные организации,
остановить преступные действия Порошенко
на Донбассе, которыми президент Украины
стремится развязать новый конфликт на
Востоке Европы и утопить Донбасс в
крови!» — заявил Эдуард Басурин.
The
Great Stephen Cohen on Meaning of Merkel-Poroshenko (Audio Podcast)
Also
talks about Henry Kissinger opposing US orthodoxy on Ukraine,
and Putin's continous policy of de-Stalinization
27
August, 2015
America’s
largest radio network, WABC.
He
has Stephen Cohen on live in the studio almost every week for a full
45 minute segment, the only guest he gives that much time to.
Why? Because Cohen’s appearances are killing the ratings.
America seems to be thirsting for an alternative and critical view of Obama’s Russia policy.
Nation
contributing editor Stephen F. Cohen and John Batchelor continue
their weekly discussions of the new cold war.
This
installment focuses on different but related recent developments.
According
to Cohen, by summoning Ukrainian President Petro Poroshenko to
Berlin, German Chancellor Angela Merkel, and French President
François Hollande made clear that the US-backed government in Kiev,
not Moscow, is blocking implementation of their Minsk plan for
negotiating an end to the Ukrainian civil war.
By
publicly rejecting several premises of US policy, Dr. Henry Kissinger
has breached the political-media orthodoxy that Putin’s Russia
alone is responsible for the new cold war.
And
by enacting a law mandating the memorialization of Stalin’s
millions of victims, in popular culture and in public institutions,
Putin has taken a step first called for by Soviet leader Nikita
Khrushchev 54 years ago, and has done so despite “bitter
resentment” on the part of many of today’s Russian officials,
intellectuals, and millions of citizens.
He
has also defied Putin-phobic assertions in the West that he is
reviving the worst traditions of Russia’s Soviet past.
