« previous pageDoctors in Russian city of Stavropol operated a 22 years old man, removing a ball-pen from his eye and part of brain, after he was questioned at FSB. He disappeared on 21 November and his family was searching for him desperately for a few days. Only on 24 November they found him at the hospital where FSB transported him after they almost killed him during interrogation. They gave no details on why he was arrested and took him back just after the operation was finished.

A Parthian shot --
I take the liberty, of posting a link, most droll, I recommend the video at the end. Courtesy of Russia Insider, Ukrainian Nazis Seem Nice. Some quality snark.
What was once described as a poor choice of Halloween costume by Prince Harry is now in vogue with celebrated government forces participating in Ukraine’s Anti-Terror Operation....Your correspondent does not think Petro Poroshenko is Hitler, or even a semi neo-Nazi. Poroshenko is very very rich — from selling candy, incidentally. His only ideology is “please let me stay rich?” and so he has forged a very cynical and surely catastrophic alliance with Ukraine’s most passionate, battle-scarred patriots – most of whom would be rotting in prison if they lived in civilization.
We are not fibbing — they really should all be in prison. One of the “nationalist” battalions under the control of Ukraine’s Ministry of Defense has been accused by Amnesty International of “widespread abuses, including abductions, unlawful detention, ill-treatment, theft, extortion, and possible executions” – what Newsweek describes as “ISIS-style war crimes.”
There's a link at RI to the Newsweek pc. See you Weds., Slainte, Barflies!

I find it difficult to think that Obama was flat out deceiving the voters on the 2008 campaign trail about ending all the wars in the Middle East region. I think he genuinely thought that he would be ending the wars in the Middle East but the warmongers and powers that rule the empire had other plans I think they sat Obama down in the white house soon after inauguration and told him how things regarding the Middle East were gonna go down. I think this happens to all heads of state but especially in the United States because it has the largest military and global bases everywhere. To blame Obama outright I think is harsh, he has to answer to the 1%'ers because it is them who control the money, especially campaign financing. So I wonder what the global 99'ers are gonna do and or demand to rectify this? This situation is not sustainable in my opinion. Change is gonna come, either peacefully or violently, the choice is really in the hands of the 1%ers regarding the peaceful solution
