A short time ago, Emperor Putin proclaimed to the world that an ‘American’ Passport was found in Georgia by his Pawns and offered it to the world as evidence that the U.S. has engineered the recent events in the Republic of Georgia.
He has not provided specific information as to the identity of this American however my sources tell me that it belonged to a nine year old girl who is suspected of belonging to the ‘counter revolutionary’ ”organization known as the ‘Girl Scouts’. An obvious CIA operative who’s work poses a very grave and serious threat to the Russian Empire and it’s “HUMBLE’ and “PEACE LOVING’ citizens. Russia is considering a full scale invasion of the Baltic and Surrounding Slavic Nations as a necessary step to remove similar subversive organizations from within the boundaries of their coveted sphere of influence.
Additional souces tell me that a plastic bow and arrow were also found by his merry men. The rubber suction cup tip was removed and is clear that an attempt was made to sharpen the end. This is more evidence that the Americans are training the Georgian people in the art of warfare and will not be tollerated.
Russian secret police have also uncovered evidence that a six year old Polish boy was seen carrying a “SHIELD” which was cleaverly disguised as a metal waste can cover. The defensive object was made in America. Russian officails are infuriated by this obvious threat to Russia’s plan to expand it’s empire and impose ‘Russia GOOD WILL’ on it’s neighbors. A nuclear response may be neccessary.
A request has been made for Russian President Dmitry Medvedev to offer his interpretation of such shocking evidence. He was not available for comment because he was buisy licking Putin’s shoes.
“my sources tell me that it belonged to a nine year old girl”
What are your “sources”?
“Medvedev… was not available for comment because he was buisy licking Putin’s shoes”
The word BUSY is spelled like this. It is really a childish comment. Who’s shoes are you licking?
Pot kettle black.
I have to say that you just made my day!
Putin warns outsiders over Ukraine
By STEVE GUTTERMAN – 18 hours ago
MOSCOW (AP) — Prime Minister Vladimir Putin warned the West on Sunday not to meddle in relations between Russia and Ukraine, according to remarks cited by state-run news agencies.
After laying a wreath at the grave of Anton Denikin, who fought against the Red Army after the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution and is now cast by the Kremlin as a patriot, Putin urged journalists to read Denikin’s diaries, RIA-Novosti and ITAR-Tass reported.
“He has a discussion there about Big Russia and Little Russia — Ukraine,” they quoted Putin as saying. “He says that nobody should be permitted to interfere in relations between us, they have always been the business of Russia itself.”
Portions of present-day Ukraine were part of pre-Revolutionary Russia and were sometimes called “Little Russia” or “Lesser Russia,” while the bulk of the country was known as “Great Russia.” Many Ukrainians find the terms offensive and misleading.
Putin’s remarks came as the dominant Russian Orthodox Church called for Slavic unity amid celebrations honoring Saints Cyril and Methodius, considered founding fathers of a common Slavic culture.
But the comments could anger Ukrainians and increase their wariness about Moscow’s intentions toward the former Soviet republic.
Ukraine has been independent since 1991, when the Russian-dominated Soviet Union collapsed. But Putin’s remarks seemed to suggest that Moscow’s close historical ties with Ukraine means gives it a measure of influence that other countries cannot claim.
The remarks come amid competition between Russia and the West for influence in Ukraine.
Russian officials have said they are determined to keep Ukraine out of NATO. For some Ukrainians, Russia’s war last year against pro-Western Georgia was a chilling suggestion of how far Moscow is willing to go.
Russian nationalists want to regain the Crimean Peninsula, which was made part of Ukrainian Soviet Republic by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev in the 1950s. There is tension between Russia and Ukraine over Russia’s Black Sea Fleet, which Ukrainian leaders have said they will evict from the Crimean port of Sevastopol when the current lease runs out in 2017.
Denikin, who died in exile in the United States in 1947, was reburied in 2005 in the cemetery Moscow’s historic Donskoy Monastery.
Putin’s visit to his grave was a reflection of how the prime minister, a longtime KGB officer who was president from 2000-2008, has celebrated individuals and images from both the Soviet era and czarist times in a drive to instill pride in Russians.
contrary to the opinion in Ukraine there is much less support for Russia than thought . the only reason why the Party of the Regions has a good stake in votes , is to defend corrupted and shadow businesses by luring votes from the poorest part of Ukraine. Be under no illusion, party of the region has no plan whatsover for Ukraine but to sell it if needed to the Russian in exchange of further capacity to loot the country.
You forgot Malik Achmedilow a correspodent from the “Chakikat”. He was murderd on 11.08.09.

Hmmm. Can’t find any references to any of these items. Looks like spin to me. I think that “bieksia | September 5, 2008 at 4:17 pm ” is either full of him/herself or is just full of fecal waste.
“‘American’ Passport was found in Georgia by his Pawns and offered it to the world as evidence that the U.S. has engineered the recent events in the Republic of Georgia.”
“He has not provided specific information as to the identity of this American however my sources tell me that it belonged to a nine year old girl who is suspected of belonging to the ‘counter revolutionary’ ”organization known as the ‘Girl Scouts’. An obvious CIA operative who’s work poses a very grave and serious threat to the Russian Empire and it’s “HUMBLE’ and “PEACE LOVING’ citizens.”
A Girl Scout working for the CIA? Doubtful. Gotta love spin doctors.
Wow, really? If you Americains are so smart, why don’t you guys go over and help Russia?
Kudos to Obama-Biden-Kerry-Hagel —the blessed and most successful team among all current, recent and past US Administrations.
This team will be recognized as the BEST of all by Global folks when the captured Field-terrorists at fair & transparent trials shall begin to divulge the names of actual fund providers or brutal-minded thugs of oil & gun politics and /or royals, oil-wealthy-businessmen of religions, bombs in noble disguise etc..
