Former Soviet President Gorbachev Denies Existence Of Past Plans To Sell The Region Of Karelia To Finland

One of the problems that I have noted which Russia faces is that she is collapsing from within and does not really know how to restore order because the problems are systematic and there is no effective way to remedy them at the time .
She may be the largest nation in the world , but her population in 142 million and dropping per year at a rate of 1 million persons .
She is the largest nation in the world , but both Germany and France not only have stronger GDPs , but have more people combined than all @ @ @ @ @ @ @ nations are ( according to the CIA Factbook ) equivalent in size to the state of Texas and Montana respectively .
She is wracked with internal problems , the largest of which is her growing in ability to keep her many and diverse peoples unified .
While many may think of Russia as “ Slavic ” , this is only so for about 75 % -80 % of the nation maximum .
The rest is a combination of primarily Asiatic , Turkic , and Indo-Aryan peoples who speak many different languages , practice @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and who often have largely autonomous rule throughout much of Russia .
The danger of this to Russia is that while she has been able to unite them , these same peoples also have a long history of rebellion but ruling Russia , and since many of them tend to do financially well ( the wealthiest area overall in Russia as far as the balance of wealth and the existence of a middle class as opposed to the African-tier wealth/poverty divide which defines most of Russia is the Muslim region of Tatarstan @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that they could potentially break away from Russia in the future and fragment the Russian Empire into a series of independent states and possibly leave Russia isolated as a nation west of the Urals .
This is not an unrealistic proposition , and it has been noted many times , by the CIA .
After the Second World War , the USSR annexed the historical German exclave of Königsberg and renamed it Kaliningrad .
However , in 2001 , the UK Telegraph reported that following the fall of the Soviet Union , Russia @ @ @ @ @ @ @ back to Germany , which she refused to accept .
Noting this history , it is of interest that according to a recent interview with former Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev published by Komsomolskaya Pravda , he explicitly denied the existence of plans to return Karelia , a historical Finnish territory annexed by the USSR during World War II , to Finland .
when Mikhail Gorbachev was president of the USSR , the question of transferring ( or even selling ) Karelia to Finland was allegedly being decided .
By the way , one @ @ @ @ @ @ @ option … Data on the failed transaction is given in the book of the diplomat , former expert of the Finnish Foreign Ministry , Jukka Seppinen .
He claims that in 1989-90 , Gorbachev was ready to discuss the transfer of Karelia .
It was allegedly about 15 billion dollars .
At the same time , according to Seppinen , the ambassador of the USSR Lev Pausin participated in the discussion of the transaction .
The foreign diplomat writes that the Soviet authorities wanted to “ get rid of Vyborg , ” because @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
( source ) There are only two possibilities- either these plans existed or they did not , and if so , either he supported them or he did not .
Nobody knows the exact truth about this .
Given Putin ’ s current attempt at making himself into a new combination Tsar-and-Stalin and modeling his rule after that of the USSR , it is possible that such allegations may be a sort of attempt at a political hit on Gorbachev , especially considering the current discoveries of mass graves of people murdered @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and the fact that Karelia is also home to Vyborg , which is the main port Russia wants to use as part of the Nord Stream II pipeline to Greifswald , Germany that Shoebat.com has written about in her archives .
But speculation aside , the fact is that Russia is in a lot of trouble .
She has many ethnic regions that have histories of rebellion against her , and while Russia is considered to be the second strongest military in the world , she can not maintain her country because of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the fact that Russia has no economy , and according to a recent article published by Pravda , people in the government are openly advocating for a return to USSR economics and the formation of a completely protectionist economy with state-run economics .
– A political scientist from Kazakhstan , Mars Sariev , told me : Russia needs to act as the tsar-father acted , how the USSR acted , that is , to take protectionist positions , and not capitalistic competitive ones .
Protect us more , be our patron .
– @ @ @ @ @ @ @ your money , through poverty , ” depopulation “ of the central regions of Russia , and then we will tell everyone else how you oppressed us for 70 years.
” We have been through this already .
– I also said that … For them , the main thing is money .
They need the money that China , perhaps America , will give , but Russia will not .
And they hold on to Russia because ( also a frequent slogan ) Russia provides security .
If there weren ’ t @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and Tajikistan , if Armenia didn ’ t have Azerbaijan close by , then they would not need our country .
– Apparently , they are right .
The Baltic countries bathe in European money , Ukraine – in American money , the population in response for some reason scatter in different directions around the world .
And now , even in the United States in the distant Minneapolis are drivers from Ukraine .
If they are satisfied with such unlimited help – full speed ahead .
You are independent , sovereign , @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( source ) The problem is that such is what Russia already has , and it has not served her .
She can blame other nations all she wants , but the fact is that the only money Russia makes is from trade with other nations , and that takes the form of either selling crude oil , raw timber , or exporting cheap weapons to poor nations .
That is all .
Ask yourself , where are the Russian cars ?
Computers ?
Foodstuffs ?
Tools ?
These are things that many @ @ @ @ @ @ @ because whether one likes another person or not , wealth comes from the exchange of value with others , not trading with oneself in a protectionist environment .
This is why a nation like Brazil , which is wracked with serious problems and in many ways is “ third world ” , has an economy that is significantly stronger than Russia ’ s .
Russia is not getting better , and plans to return to a Sovietesque model are doomed to fail because it was Soviet economics and policies that inflicted so much @ @ @ @ @ @ @ has been unable to recover from fully .
Russia is now , when one considers her economics , population , birthrates , development , migration , and prospects much weaker than she was either at the formation of the USSR or before World War II .

shoebat--2020-06-17--“Best Korea” Threatens To Invade South Korea

North Korea has been sometimes referred to as “ best Korea ” , albeit this is rather comical considering that North Korea is an impoverished backwater and buffer zone used by the Chinese , Russians , Japanese , and Americans for their own geopolitical leverage .
The small northeast asian nation has techincally been at continual war with South Korea since the 1950s and it has never ended , as there was never a peace treaty signed , but merely a negotiated armistice that has acted as a peace with period of war .
However , in an interesting move @ @ @ @ @ @ @ that North Korea may be preparing to send troops into a demilitarized region , thus making it an act of war and in a technical sense , an attempt at invading South Korea .
orth Korea ’ s military said Tuesday it is reviewing plans to reenter a border zone that was previously disarmed under an inter-Korean agreement .
“ Our army is keeping a close watch on the current situation in which the north-south relations are turning worse and worse , and getting itself fully ready for providing a sure military guarantee @ @ @ @ @ @ @ by the Party and government , ” the General Staff of the Korean People ’ s Army said in a statement carried by the Korean Central News Agency .

The small northeast asian nation has techincally been at continual war with South Korea since the 1950s and it has never ended, as there was never a peace treaty signed, but merely a negotiated armistice that has acted as a peace with period of war.
However, in an interesting move, South Korean news agency Yonhap reports that North Korea may be preparing to send troops into a demilitarized region, thus making it an act of war and in a technical sense, an attempt at invading South Korea.
orth Korea’s military said Tuesday it is reviewing plans to reenter a border zone that was previously disarmed under an inter-Korean agreement. “Our army is keeping a close watch on the current situation in which the north-south relations are turning worse and worse, and getting itself fully ready for providing a sure military guarantee to any external measures to be taken by the Party and government,” the General Staff of the Korean People’s Army said in a statement carried by the Korean Central News Agency. The KPA is studying “an action plan for taking measures to make the army advance again into the zones that had been demilitarized under the north-south agreement, turn the front line into a fortress and further heighten the military vigilance against the south,” it said. “We will map out the military action plans for rapidly carrying out the said opinions to receive approval from the Party Central Military Commission,” it added.

South Korea has issued very stern responses, including that they will be prepared to engage in military action if necessary.
“The government expresses strong regret over North Korea’s unilateral explosion of the inter-Korean liaison office building,” Kim You-geun, deputy director of Cheong Wa Dae’s national security office, told reporters after the meeting. “We sternly warn that we will strongly respond to it if North Korea takes any action that further worsens the situation.” (source)
Wht will be interesting to see in the response of Japan, for Trump’s actions have already loosened the way for Japan to return to a militaristic state. If North Korea attempts to engage in mischief, the threat would not be the poorly-fed, impoverished, and poorly equipped North Korean military, which poses more of a threat to the local buffet than to a country, but Japan using the crisis as an opportunity to advance her own attempts at remilitarization saying that because of the “threat”, she needs to build more weapons and increase her military’s strength.
As with many things, the threat is not such as it necessarily appears, for North Korea is but a puppet with her neighbors hide behind to shield their true intentions. The real threat comes from the east, as as the Empire of Japan in the “land of the rising sun”, so they want that a new day would dawn upon their imperial aspirations and will look for any excuse to see that such conditions for its return will be realized.

A video shows a mob, consisting mainly of black males, attacking a white male horrifically in Maryland. The video is being presented by media outlets as just a brawl or a fight, but the reality is that this was a horrific attack by a mob of very evil people:
Ocean City Maryland. Blacks lynching white people. Where’s the media on this? Ohhh right! They’re complicit! pic.twitter.com/AE3Ak00sET — 💋❌PattyAngel❌💋 (@PattyAngel64) June 16, 2020
The area of Maryland that this took place in was Ocean City. The Police Chief of Ocean City, Ross Buzzuro said today: “In recent weeks, Ocean City has seen unprecedented violence and unruly behavior in our town…We are moving in the right direction. We have significantly increased our presence and made nearly 130 arrests over the weekend. These individuals will be charged for the serious crimes that they have committed. I want to assure our residents and visitors of the capabilities and commitment of the OCPD. We will remain vigilant and proactive in continuing to protect our town.”
A report from Fox Baltimore stated that police presence in Ocean City by 25%:
Ocean City police say they made 129 arrests between Thursday and Sunday this past week. The police department has also stepped up its presence by 25 percent, in response ton recent violence, according to a news release today.
Crime has increased with “unprecedented violence” (to quote the police chief) in the midst of extremely racially tense times in which anger against whites and police officers is raging. This is not coincidental.

Shoebat.com Warning Resonates Again As Soldiers Killed In Northern India Over Territory Skirmish Between China And India

I have been saying for a long time at Shoebat.com that the US will not help Indian Christians because she is preparing for a conflict with China and is attempting to build up India to use her as a hedge against the Chinese , pitting the third and fourth strongest militaries and first and second most populous nations in the world against each other .

This ultimately works to China’s disadvantage.

shoebat--2020-06-17--Boston Dynamics Puts Robot Dog Of Internet Fame Up For Sale

A few years ago , the world was shocked by the progress of robotics in the modern era as exemplified by “ Spot ” , a robotic dog developed by the technology corporation Boston Dynamics , that integrates AI and machinery into a futuristic creation of metal , wires , and computer parts .
But what is perhaps even more amazing is that , while he has an expensive price tag , Wired.com reports that Boston Dynamics has now put “ Spot ” for sale to the general public .
SPOT , BOSTON DYNAMICS ’ famous robot dog , dutifully @ @ @ @ @ @ @ traipses forward , then automatically scrambles over a raised bed of rocks .
I make it side-step .
I command it up a flight of stairs , which it tackles with ease .
It meets its match when I steer it at a medicine ball , though ; it takes a tumble , and for a moment lies paralyzed on its back .
But with a click of a button , Spot twists and rights itself , and recommences its ramblings .
Such unfailing obedience , yet I ’ m nowhere near Spot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ’ s testing grounds in Boston .
I ’ m piloting the robot through my web browser from the comfort of my apartment in San Francisco , 3,000 miles away .
With almost zero latency , I either use the robot ’ s front camera feed to click on bits of terrain—think of it like scooting around in Google ’ s Street View—or flicking my keyboard ’ s WASD keys in the most expensive videogame imaginable .
Just how expensive , Boston Dynamics is finally saying : $ 74,500 .
As of today @ @ @ @ @ @ @ can buy Spot—max two per customer , well short of what it would take to assemble a pack of robot dogs .
Until now , the company has only leased the robot to select early adopters .
It worked with these lucky few to get the robot ready for life in the real world , and in large part to determine what this mesmerizingly dexterous machine might actually be good for .
This kind of extreme remote operation is a window into Spot ’ s budding career .

A few years ago, the world was shocked by the progress of robotics in the modern era as exemplified by “Spot”, a robotic dog developed by the technology corporation Boston Dynamics, that integrates AI and machinery into a futuristic creation of metal, wires, and computer parts.
But what is perhaps even more amazing is that, while he has an expensive price tag, Wired.com reports that Boston Dynamics has now put “Spot” for sale to the general public.
SPOT, BOSTON DYNAMICS’ famous robot dog, dutifully follows my every command. The machine traipses forward, then automatically scrambles over a raised bed of rocks. I make it side-step. I command it up a flight of stairs, which it tackles with ease. It meets its match when I steer it at a medicine ball, though; it takes a tumble, and for a moment lies paralyzed on its back. But with a click of a button, Spot twists and rights itself, and recommences its ramblings. Such unfailing obedience, yet I’m nowhere near Spot, which is roaming about the company’s testing grounds in Boston. I’m piloting the robot through my web browser from the comfort of my apartment in San Francisco, 3,000 miles away. With almost zero latency, I either use the robot’s front camera feed to click on bits of terrain—think of it like scooting around in Google’s Street View—or flicking my keyboard’s WASD keys in the most expensive videogame imaginable. Just how expensive, Boston Dynamics is finally saying: $74,500. As of today, businesses, developers, and academics can buy Spot—max two per customer, well short of what it would take to assemble a pack of robot dogs. Until now, the company has only leased the robot to select early adopters. It worked with these lucky few to get the robot ready for life in the real world, and in large part to determine what this mesmerizingly dexterous machine might actually be good for. This kind of extreme remote operation is a window into Spot’s budding career. Through the web interface, I can bring up feeds from the cameras dotted along the robot’s body. It uses these to path-find and detect obstacles like stairs; control algorithms then automatically move its legs so as to not plummet down them. A construction company, for instance, might program Spot to take a route around a work site, taking pictures of progress along the way. But at any time, a remote operator can take control of the robot—the latency is surprisingly minimal because the bandwidth between the operator and the machine is a mere half megabyte—and send it someplace too dangerous for humans. “So we’ve seen that in manufacturing, mining, electric utilities, even to some extent more [hazardous] environments over the last several months as Covid has started impacting the ability to actually access a work site,” says Michael Perry, vice president of business development at Boston Dynamics. Indeed, Spot (with a tablet mounted on its face) recently went to work in a Boston hospital, helping screen patients for the disease. This is the promise of Spot and any number of other increasingly sophisticated robots: We want them to do the dull, dirty, and dangerous work—collectively known as the “three Ds” in robotics—that shouldn’t mean humans have to risk their lives.

I have said before and I will say it again- robotics and artificial intelligence will be two major trends that will direct the future, including those which will drive a third world war.
This is part of the normalization of robotics in human life. We are witnessing a transition- a revolution -as great as the Internet and Industrial Revolutions, and perhaps greater.
What is happening today was discussed by philosopher as a sort of merging between man and machine. That is, while man and machine will work in symbiosis, there will be an increased attempt to “evolve”, as Shoebat.com has covered, by directly integrating machines into man’s own body to the point that the machine will be considered to be the superior part and the human part the inferior one. This is not medical devices or other good things that help people, but rather the “mechanization” of man as an inversion of creation and the attempted rule of man over God in a reflection directly from Eden.
Spot is not that- but he is a step on the way to the legitimization of machines in daily life.
Expect to see a lot more robots and AI in the future- they will be very helpful and useful, and do a lot of good things. But as their presence increases, also expect to see an increase in this philosophy, and the latter is what is driving the advancements to the former.

Coins can be found on the ground , in one ’ s pocket , in the cracks of a chair , or other places , but they are having a harder time being found in stores today as CNBC reports that banks are reporting coin shortages , to which the Federal Reserve Bank has replied this is true and it is because of the effects of COVID-19 .

In light of this, CNBC reports that COVID-19 hospitalizations have continued to explode, including an 11% increase in a single day.

shoebat--2020-06-18--US Navy Busts Ring Of American Sailors Trafficking And Enslaving Thai Women In Bahrain

It is a well-known fact that sex slavery is a huge problem in the Middle East .
This includes Israel as well as Muslim nations , and it has been a serious issue for years .
Many times the women come from Eastern Europe , Southeast Asia , or sub-Saharan Africa ( in that order ) and are sold by their families to pay debts , and they will be forced to work for years as prostitutes , with some not surviving .
It is a horrific scandal that continues to this day .
While many people often times point @ @ @ @ @ @ @ culprit , this time a new sex-trafficking scandal emerged in the small Muslim nation of Bahrain but not involving Muslims from the Middle East , but American Naval sailors going up into the ranks of senior officers who worked to traffick women from Thailand and place them into sex slavery , collecting a share of the profits from their illegal venture as is being reported by the Military Times .
For years , U.S. sailors and prostitutes have lived , drank and slept together near “ American Alley ” in the Juffair section @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
This warren of bars , nightclubs and apartment blocks sits just outside the gates of Naval Support Activity Bahrain , the headquarters of U.S. 5th Fleet , where about 7,500 American sailors are stationed to oversee naval operations across the volatile U.S. Central Command region in the Middle East .
Yet by 2017 , sailors were not just patronizing prostitutes .
The NCIS investigations revealed a shadowy subculture outside the gates of NSA Bahrain that had metastasized into multilayered enterprises with sailors as profiteers .
The misconduct flew in the face of @ @ @ @ @ @ @ attendant online training programs that troops from all services must regularly complete .
Some evidence suggests the involvement of U.S. sailors was widespread .
One accused chief told NCIS agents in 2018 that he believed up to 15 percent of sailors assigned to Bahrain were housing prostitutes in their off-post apartments .
“ He stated many other sailors do not think you can or will actually get in trouble for patronizing prostitution or hosting foreign nationals , ” in their off-base residences , a NCIS summary of the interview states .
That chief @ @ @ @ @ @ @ patronized 10 to 15 prostitutes in Bahrain in 2017 , said he “ knew several of the women he paid to have sex with were engaged in debt bondage , owing their ‘ mamasan ’ approximately 2,500 [ Bahraini dinar , or about $ 6,600 ] , for coming to Bahrain , ” one NCIS report states .
According to NCIS records , another sailor told agents that “ service members have been housing women for profit since at least 2012 , when he was previously stationed in Bahrain.
” That service member @ @ @ @ @ @ @ records NCIS released publicly — told agents that , “ Sailors would typically hold ( the women ’ s ) passports to ensure they received money owed to them.
” ( source ) The pattern of enslavement noted is absolutely no different than what one could read about from they many tales of people trafficked by Muslims and Balkan , Russian , or Israeli gangs .
The difference was that it was US soldiers this time , which is a tremendously scandalous and embarrassing thing to be caught in .
Slavery never disappeared @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the age .
In the Shoebat archives , we have recorded how modern slave trafficking is not just tied to incidents such as the current refugee crisis with migrants from African to Europe , but also how the “ dark net ” has become a notable source of buying and selling people around the world .
There is no military that is free from scandals , and the litany of jokes about navies and sailors and their various excursions or experiences with prostitutes exist because they are all too common .
that said @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , and given how the US has come under intense international scrutiny as well as there are nations looking to supplant or lessen her position in the world- such as Germany , Russia , or Turkey -the last matter that the US needs is another scandal at this time .
Perhaps that is the reason why , although this happened in 2017 and did not finish until recently , it is being discussed- that by discussing it now and admitting what happened , the problem can be more effectively dealt with , instead @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ” only to cause another scandal later , such as what infamously happens with the Russians .
However , there is one curious detail in the story , that one can read further down , which is that the main madame/mamasan , Lin Raiwest , was also acting as a paid informant from the US Navy for at least four years , including while this entire scandal was going on .
But likely unbeknownst to her American acquaintances on the island , Raiwest had been an NCIS informant since 2014 and is designated @ @ @ @ @ @ @ and court records .
So while she continued her work as a prostitute and mamasan , Raiwest could also if needed turn to NCIS Special Agent Stanley Garland , the agent whom she ’ d known and secretly worked with for years .
“ This is a calculating individual that knows what she ’ s doing and knows how to play this game , ” Pristera said in court in 2018 .
“ NCIS just kind of lets her do her own thing.
” How much NCIS paid Raiwest over the years remains @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Raiwest $ 900 after searching Littlejohn ’ s apartment in September 2017 and finding her passport locked in a safe there .
NCIS records state the payment was to cover fees associated with Raiwest overstaying her visa , but at Littlejohn ’ s trial , NCIS Special Agent Elise Stephens called the payout “ reward money.
” “ This was a woman who was…very powerful , ” Pristera told Military Times .
“ She was using that relationship [ with NCIS ] and taking full advantage of the fact that she had NCIS @ @ @ @ @ @ @ ( source ) This is another scandal .
One can point to the soldiers , but the fact is that this scandal would have never happened if this woman was not stopped immediately .

It is a well-known fact that sex slavery is a huge problem in the Middle East. This includes Israel as well as Muslim nations, and it has been a serious issue for years. Many times the women come from Eastern Europe, Southeast Asia, or sub-Saharan Africa (in that order) and are sold by their families to pay debts, and they will be forced to work for years as prostitutes, with some not surviving. It is a horrific scandal that continues to this day.
While many people often times point to wealthy Arab oil sheikhs as the culprit, this time a new sex-trafficking scandal emerged in the small Muslim nation of Bahrain but not involving Muslims from the Middle East, but American Naval sailors going up into the ranks of senior officers who worked to traffick women from Thailand and place them into sex slavery, collecting a share of the profits from their illegal venture as is being reported by the Military Times.
For years, U.S. sailors and prostitutes have lived, drank and slept together near “American Alley” in the Juffair section of Bahrain’s capital, Manama. This warren of bars, nightclubs and apartment blocks sits just outside the gates of Naval Support Activity Bahrain, the headquarters of U.S. 5th Fleet, where about 7,500 American sailors are stationed to oversee naval operations across the volatile U.S. Central Command region in the Middle East. Yet by 2017, sailors were not just patronizing prostitutes. The NCIS investigations revealed a shadowy subculture outside the gates of NSA Bahrain that had metastasized into multilayered enterprises with sailors as profiteers. The misconduct flew in the face of the Pentagon’s anti-trafficking policies and attendant online training programs that troops from all services must regularly complete. Some evidence suggests the involvement of U.S. sailors was widespread. One accused chief told NCIS agents in 2018 that he believed up to 15 percent of sailors assigned to Bahrain were housing prostitutes in their off-post apartments. “He stated many other sailors do not think you can or will actually get in trouble for patronizing prostitution or hosting foreign nationals,” in their off-base residences, a NCIS summary of the interview states. That chief, who told NCIS agents he had patronized 10 to 15 prostitutes in Bahrain in 2017, said he “knew several of the women he paid to have sex with were engaged in debt bondage, owing their ‘mamasan’ approximately 2,500 [Bahraini dinar, or about $6,600], for coming to Bahrain,” one NCIS report states. According to NCIS records, another sailor told agents that “service members have been housing women for profit since at least 2012, when he was previously stationed in Bahrain.” That service member — whose name was redacted in the records NCIS released publicly — told agents that, “Sailors would typically hold (the women’s) passports to ensure they received money owed to them.” (source)
The pattern of enslavement noted is absolutely no different than what one could read about from they many tales of people trafficked by Muslims and Balkan, Russian, or Israeli gangs. The difference was that it was US soldiers this time, which is a tremendously scandalous and embarrassing thing to be caught in.
Slavery never disappeared, but takes different forms depending on the age. In the Shoebat archives, we have recorded how modern slave trafficking is not just tied to incidents such as the current refugee crisis with migrants from African to Europe, but also how the “dark net” has become a notable source of buying and selling people around the world.
There is no military that is free from scandals, and the litany of jokes about navies and sailors and their various excursions or experiences with prostitutes exist because they are all too common. that said, it does not justify the practice, and given how the US has come under intense international scrutiny as well as there are nations looking to supplant or lessen her position in the world- such as Germany, Russia, or Turkey -the last matter that the US needs is another scandal at this time. Perhaps that is the reason why, although this happened in 2017 and did not finish until recently, it is being discussed- that by discussing it now and admitting what happened, the problem can be more effectively dealt with, instead of attempting to “hide and deny” only to cause another scandal later, such as what infamously happens with the Russians.
However, there is one curious detail in the story, that one can read further down, which is that the main madame/mamasan, Lin Raiwest, was also acting as a paid informant from the US Navy for at least four years, including while this entire scandal was going on.
But likely unbeknownst to her American acquaintances on the island, Raiwest had been an NCIS informant since 2014 and is designated under the code name MEBJ-1580 in agency and court records. So while she continued her work as a prostitute and mamasan, Raiwest could also if needed turn to NCIS Special Agent Stanley Garland, the agent whom she’d known and secretly worked with for years. “This is a calculating individual that knows what she’s doing and knows how to play this game,” Pristera said in court in 2018. “NCIS just kind of lets her do her own thing.” How much NCIS paid Raiwest over the years remains unclear, but records show agents paid Raiwest $900 after searching Littlejohn’s apartment in September 2017 and finding her passport locked in a safe there. NCIS records state the payment was to cover fees associated with Raiwest overstaying her visa, but at Littlejohn’s trial, NCIS Special Agent Elise Stephens called the payout “reward money.” “This was a woman who was…very powerful,” Pristera told Military Times. “She was using that relationship [with NCIS] and taking full advantage of the fact that she had NCIS as a silent partner, almost.” (source)
This is another scandal. One can point to the soldiers, but the fact is that this scandal would have never happened if this woman was not stopped immediately. Instead, the government paid her and allowed her to keep doing what she was doing, effectively leaving her available to create the very scandal that happened.
One may recall that the infamous Hal Turner, a public figure and “white nationalist” who called for violence against non-whites and was put on trial in Connecticut in 2009 for attempting to incite violence against public officials was exposed in the courtroom as a paid FBI informant for years. Likewise, recall how Shoebat.com reported by was of Reason magazine that a minimum of 25% of child sexual abuse websites were run on FBI computers, and 42% of such websites were run on DoD servers- meaning that arguably, two-thirds of all of the child sexual abuse and violence material on the darknet is actually not being put out by the “average” man, but is actively being sustained and promoted by the government that proclaims to oppose such.
This should be a lesson to all as to why it is always, without question, a bad idea, to get involved in criminal activity. It does not end well, it causes problems, and many times, it is just a trap to destroy a man, if not from a more powerful individual or group, than from the demons that want to enslave the souls of men and put them into a spiritual prison without any hope of liberation from Christ.

shoebat--2020-06-19--Indian Now Trolling China With Pictures Of ‘Winnie Xi Pooh’

For years now , Americans and people in other western nations have trolled Communist China leader Xi Jinping with pictures of him compared to or alongside the famed English cartoon character Winnie the Pooh by A.A. Milne .
This trolling , sometimes known as “ Winnie Xi Pooh ” has infuriated President Xi to the delight of the trolls .
With the spread of technology in India , more Indians are coming to use the Internet and are getting used to the meme culture , and while not so much developing anything very original of their own , are rather @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the integrate .
In an interesting reflection of this and the recent military skirmish between China and India , Indians have discovered the “ Winnie Xi Pooh ” meme and are now trolling President Xi with it .
Soon after the news of the confrontation broke , Indian Twitter did they what they do best – unleashed a war on Chinese President Xi Jinping on social media .
And they did so by trending a hashtag , # WinnieThePooh .
While most saw it as some harmless fun , the government saw it @ @ @ @ @ @ @ office and that of the president himself .
Jinping , who has ironically always tried to present himself as a benevolent leader , hated being compared to every child ’ s favourite cartoon character China simply could not bear the thought of having the cute yellow bear becoming symbolic of their leader .
Thus , began China ’ s censorship woes .
Anything related to Winnie the Pooh – toys , movies , TV series – everything was banned in China .
The Hollywood Reporter in 2018 reported that Christopher Robin ’ s @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
Ever since then , any attack on China on social media has been incomplete without reference to Winnie the Pooh .
In fact , every time Xi Jinping makes a move , the hashtags begin trending globally on Twitter .
Monday ’ s clash between Indian and Chinese troops have been no different .
( source ) The Tweets speak for themselves : But trolling aside , this is a very serious situation , and it lines up on point with what we at Shoebat.com have been warning about .
China is @ @ @ @ @ @ @ likely with the US .
However , she will also have tot face off with Japan and against rebellions across her western provinces and Southeast Asia .
India , however , will be her biggest problem after Japan because while India is not an “ imperial ” power , she has a military and population equivalent to that of China .
Putting those two against each other is a huge threat to Chinese domination in Central Asia , and since she can not expect Russia to do anything ( Russia talks a lot @ @ @ @ @ @ @ she correctly perceives China to be a major threat to her holding in Siberia ) , China is going to be on her own .
This border skirmish with India seems to be an act of Chinese aggression , but backfired on her .
It has not escalated into a full-scale war , but it came close and still could .
It will be events such as this that eventually culminate in a major war .
I have said it before to our readers and I am going to say it again .
@ @ @ @ @ @ @ , YOU NEED TO LEAVE NOW .
THIS ATTACK WAS A WARNING SHOT .
ASSUMING THE TRENDS CONTINUE AND BARRING ANY MAJOR CHANGES , THERE WILL BE A WAR WITH CHINA , THE HINDU NATIONALISTS WILL BE ABLE TO TAKE POWER , AND YOU WILL LIKELY BE PUT INTO DEATH CAMPS AND NOBODY IS GOING TO HELP YOU BECAUSE PEOPLE WILL BE MORE CONCERNED ABOUT CHINA .
If you are an Indian Christian , please get out of India while you still can because there will come a time when it is too @ @ @ @ @ @ @ the work of this site .

The Tweets speak for themselves:
You don’t want war. Go to china and say #WinnieThePooh we don’t war. — LALIT SHARMA (@LALITSHARMAHP) June 17, 2020
You so called lizards are always manipulated by that idiot #winniethepooh. Go, Have some bat soup. — Aman Surkar (@amansurkar) June 17, 2020
When will the truth come out about the huge amount of corruption and cover ups curtesy of #XiJinping aka #winniethepooh . It’s truly sad when certain western media is reporting the propaganda like it’s facts when we know that many more people have died in China then mentioned. — Mo Bahar (@CrypticTradeBTC) June 16, 2020
