Ukraine needs to split. Even Sam Huntington in his 'Clash of
Civilizations', written at the close of the last century, predicted
Ukraine would split along cultural lines with the Ukrainian speaking
west aligning with the West and the Russian speaking Orthodox with Russia.

Well, Vlad did warn the West that they'd better not put NATO right on
the border with Russia. This is the explosion heard 'round the world
(unless you don't read Popular Mechanics) and sends a message to Latvia,
Lithuania, and Estonia that letting NATO stockpile munitions in their
countries near the Russian motherland is, literally, like playing with
fire. Judging by the video of the explosions from an apartment building
5 miles away - I'd conjecture that the little drone with it's thermite
grenade cause more explosive damage than the Japs caused at Pearl
Harbor. Yes, Putin "advances" from the standpoint that Ukraine got hit
and got hit hard. This might make the Visigrad nations a little nervous
about welcoming NATO into their sovereign nations, along with their
nervousness about Brussels and Berlin wanting to wage demographic
warfare against them vis a vis the "refugee crisis." This was payback
for the American missile strike on Russian bases in Syria which the
mainstream media, neocons, and Hillary supporters thought was so grand.

It seems that while NATO was engaging in war "games" in Abkhasia, a
munitions depot exploded. Is it a coincidence, or payback?

MOSCOW (Sputnik) — A blast at a munitions depot in Abkhazia, a former
Georgian territory, has injured 60 people, some of them gravely, a
Health Ministry spokesman told Sputnik.

The explosion tore through the depot in the village of Primorskoye on
Wednesday afternoon. The blaze was put out late at night and detonations
stopped.

"The latest estimate is 60 injured, including two children. The majority
received light to moderate injuries. Two or three people were seriously
hurt but there is no risk to their lives," Rustam Zantaria said late on
Wednesday.

The official added that the majority of those hurt were holidaymakers
taking mud baths at a nearby hot Sulfur spring. They received cuts from
shrapnel, glass shards and rocks that the blast wave carried.

The Russian Embassy in Abkhazia said on Facebook that 35 Russian
tourists had been injured in the blast, 27 of them required hospitalization.

Military can destroy drones over domestic U.S. bases: Pentagon
2 Min Read
2-3 minutes

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - The Pentagon has given more than 130 U.S.
military bases across the United States the green light to shoot down
private and commercial drones that could endanger aviation safety or
pose other threats.

The number of uncrewed aircraft in U.S. skies has zoomed in recent years
and continues to increase rapidly - along with concern among U.S. and
private-sector officials that dangerous or even hostile drones could get
too close to places like military bases, airports and sports stadiums.

While the specific actions that the U.S. military can take against
drones are classified, they include destroying or seizing private and
commercial drones that pose a threat, Pentagon spokesman Navy Captain
Jeff Davis told reporters on Monday.

The classified guidelines were distributed early last month. The
Pentagon sent out unclassified guidance on how to communicate the policy
to communities on Friday.

"The increase of commercial and private drones in the United States has
raised our concerns with regards to the safety and security of our
installations, aviation safety and the safety of people," Davis said.

In April, flights of nearly all drones over 133 U.S. military facilities
were banned due to security concerns.

Drones have become popular as toys and with hobbyists, and have
commercial uses such as aerial photography. Amazon.com Inc (AMZN.O) and
Alphabet Inc's Google unit (GOOGL.O) have been exploring the use of
drones to deliver goods ordered online.

The FAA estimated the commercial drone fleet would grow from 42,000 at
the end of 2016 to about 442,000 aircraft by 2021. The FAA said there
could be as many as 1.6 million commercial drones in use by 2021.

Apparently you didn't watch the video. It's a game changer like what
resulted after Washington supplied Stinger Missiles to the Mujahadeen in
Afghanistan back in the '80s. The Goldman Sachs puppet government in
Kiev has been put on notice that they will pay dearly for inviting NATO
into the parts of the country still under their control. Russia is not
Libya and Putin will not go away like Ghadaffi did. The video will
provide all the more reason not to live next to a munitions depot or
chemical plant. Remember Bhopal?
And guess who had plans to frack the Ukraine....Chevron...


https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ukraine-chevron-idUSBRE9A40ML20131105

Ukraine signs $10 billion shale gas deal with Chevron

KIEV (Reuters) - Ukraine signed a $10 billion shale gas
production-sharing agreement with U.S. Chevron (CVX.N) on Tuesday,
another step in a drive for more energy independence from Russia.

The deal to develop its western Olesska field followed a similar shale
gas agreement with Royal Dutch Shell (RDSa.L) in January and boosts
Ukraine's leadership at a time of fraught relations with Moscow over gas
supplies.

"The agreements with Shell and Chevron ... will enable us to have full
sufficiency in gas by 2020 and, under an optimistic scenario, even
enable us to export energy," President Viktor Yanukovich told investors
shortly before the signing.

The highest end of expectations for Olesska's potential reserves would
match around three years of European Union gas demand, but similarly
sunny hopes for shale reserves in neighboring Poland have been very
sharply downsized.

Shale development in Europe is far behind the booming U.S. sector and
progress is patchy. Chevron pulled out of a shale exploration tender in
Lithuania and has suspended work at a Romanian shale well after local
protests.

Ukraine Energy Minister Eduart Stavytsky, who signed the deal with
Chevron executive Derek Magness, set it in the context of a high price
Ukraine pays Russia for its gas.


Now which Goldman Sachs brain stem thought Putin would be happy to lose
revenues from the Ukraine?

Sheesh!

You will recall their plans for Afghanistan too, yes?

Unocal reiterates position on withdrawal from trans-Afghanistan pipeline
project
El Segundo, Calif., Feb. 16, 1999 - Unocal Corporation today reiterated
that it no longer has any role in developing or funding the proposed
CentGas pipeline project across Afghanistan.

The company stated that it is not considering rejoining the CentGas
consortium, nor has the company had any discussions with persons or
entities anywhere about re-entering the project since Unocal formally
withdrew from CentGas in December 1998 (See Unocal statement, Dec. 10,
1998).

Unocal issued this statement after an erroneous press report from
Islamabad, Pakistan, quoted Pakistani officials who indicated that
Unocal was showing an interest in rejoining the consortium.

Not for armies that store munitions in bunkers. For a little while, a mere five
centuries, armies realised their munitions had a disturbing premature
ejaculation when they got too hot. So weapon depots were designed to separate
their munitions to many separate piles, surrounded by stone then reinforced
concrete. They were also designed that when a bunker did explode it would
explode away from other bunkers.

Navies also applied those principles to ammunition magazines. That's why the
destruction of the Arizona is confounding: the forward magazine should have
survived that bomb. I also recently learn the ammunition in an M1 turret is
stored behind a steel door. If the store detonates, it supposed to release out
the back of the turret instead of into the crew.

Only small quantities of ammunition should be unprotected.

Those aren't for occupation. They are guests of Germany for NATO. Just like the
bases in ROK.

Okinawa bases are on territory seized from Japan. Japan has no say in their
presence.

Much more complicated then that...Gotta abrogate a bunch of treaties

Oh yeah...They do... Okinawa brings suit against the Japanese Government
on a regular basis to get them removed. In fact the Navy base has moved
to a built up portion on the sea bed to appease the Okinawans...But they
just ain't happy. That is where China got the idea of building additon's

No, that only addressed it's unification and sovereignty.....there has NEVER
been a peace treated signed by German.

Thus technically the war has never ended....we are simply in a greatly

Ukraine pays Russia for its gas.
Russia is trying to make up for all the gas Ukraine stole...

Check out the fireworks. Total destruction of Ukrainian
munitions, including rockets. This is a game changer in warfare.
Why is it a 'game changer'?
Because someone can order a drone from Amazon for a few hundred bucks
and destroy millions of dollars of materiel? Obama has a fondness for
drone assassinations; was he stupid enough to think other people
couldn't figure out how to do it?
Hillbilly cruise missile?

Now even a redneck Okie can have a cruise missile that is effective.

Now there can be thousands of Timothy McVeigh wannabes each with their
their own grenade-carrying-drone enacting "revenge" against some hated
agency of the government, Lavoy Finnicum-style. Or maybe they'll just

munitions, including rockets. This is a game changer in
warfare.
Why is it a 'game changer'?
Apparently you didn't watch the video.
Apparently you are incapable of predicting what I do.
It's a game changer like
what resulted after Washington supplied Stinger Missiles to the
Mujahadeen in Afghanistan back in the '80s.
Proved my point. Those missiles are government tools to further
the cause of the government that created them. Not a 'game
changer', just another tool of a government that seeks to control
people.
So you don't consider a device that allowed relatively primitive Afghani
tribesmen to defeat a superpower and bring down the USSR a "game changer?"
The Goldman Sachs
puppet government in Kiev has been put on notice that they will
pay dearly for inviting NATO into the parts of the country still
under their control. Russia is not Libya and Putin will not go
away like Ghadaffi did. The video will provide all the more
reason not to live next to a munitions depot or chemical plant.
Remember Bhopal?
Again, proved my point.
I was just stating the obvious.
Sabotage has occurred for hundreds of years without 'drones' and
will continue to occur for hundreds more, with or without 'drones'.
Regarding "anybody's reach", governments are the ONLY users of
drones that choose to attach Air to Ground missiles and those
delivery devices are only in the realm of governments' unlimited
finances.
Terrorists groups big and small bent on destroying "forest fires,
refineries, fuel dumps big and small, explosives and chemical
plants, power grid nodes" will continue to convert civilians, and
Military personnel into mules to accomplish the delivery. It all
boils down to cost effectiveness and capability.
Drones are NOT a game changer. They ARE yet another tool created
by government to further the goals of the government that created
them.
Drones like you buy at Best Buy or Walmart were hardly a tool created by
government. They were created by the better batteries, electric motors,
and smartphone technology and a desire to own them by consumers. You
tube videos were showing some Russian guy who had attached an Uzi to a
quad-coptor drone and was shooting up a Chevrolet Impala with plastic
explosives inside. You don't need to use a parental tone and try to be
the final word on the matter.

Because it puts ground attack from the air within almost
anybody's reach and ammo dumps are just one amongst many targets
of opportunity. Think forest fires, refineries, fuel dumps big

Time will tell. An on-foot tango takes a much higher level of risk
approaching his target on foot whereas a drone can be operated from a
distance making an op much safer for personel. That is the reason so
much is invested in all types of pilotless ground, sea and air vehicles
being developed not to mention the huge recon advantages they provide.
That line of tactical reasoning is as valid for terrs or other criminal
elements as it is for governments. Case in point civilian drones, out of
the box or modified are already used to deliver cross border contraband
(drugs and handguns). Case in point at least one major internet retailer
has an on going experimental goods delivery by drone program presently.
If you add to that the fact that civilian drones are very inexpensive
relatively speaking, there is a high probability they will be a game
changer.

Use wide range RF jamming and optical barricades and any drone that depends
on remote guidance and/or GPS would be ineffective the moment it entered the
protected zone. The optical barricades could also mimic structures and
perspectives within the area to fool and confuse any sort of optical
recognition system. You could also deploy active and passive defenses to
entangle, blind, shoot down, or otherwise render drones ineffective.

Add in a change of how things are constructed so such attacks as drones can
engage in are cofferdammed thus limiting damage to non-key or non-critical
areas.

Ultimately you need a layered defense, with each layer protected the
vulnerabilities of the prior layers, and then minimizing the damage that
could result should something manage to get through anyway.

There are already hand held civilian drone shortwave jammers on the
market and you can bet that the military, considering the impact for
example of small battlefield recon drones, has systems based on a
mixture of radio location of the telemetry sent by drones and high
definition low horizon radar that directly command jamming EM beams or
tactical lasers to deal with the threat. As usual the problem is you
can't be everywhere all the time, at least not presently, hence the
foreseeable rise in the use of drones by unsavory types, especially on
low security non hardened high impact civilian targets. In fact, it is
rather surprising that their use has not been more frequent, something
that is bound to change IMO.I can readily imagine a few bad scenarios
where you would not even need to produce casualties, just enough panic
to achieve interdiction of important civilian facilities and the
consequent havoc. IMO, your outline of the « economic » opportunities
are also correct.

Mini stinger missile batteries setup to automatically shoot down

Camera guided guns that fire BBs at the drone, along with their own

I read a report a year or two ago that one of the Scandinavian

I see a thriving market in used drones. Capture them by any number of

them on the black market. New equivalent of the stolen gun used for
one crime and discarded.
Useful to burglars to watch properties to establish patterns.
Saw a youtube four or five years ago of a small drone carrying a 1911.
Fired several shots, absorbed the recoil, and returned to position for
the next shot. Not much more to it than a remotely controlled solenoid
to pull the trigger. Add a camera and AI to replace the remote
trigger. Great for contract killing and soon cheap enough for gang
warfare. Next years' model will be a flying AR15 with full auto.
Drop a cherry bomb down your teachers' fireplace chimney to harass
him.
The illicit uses are endless. (And a hell of a lot of fun ;>)
Here is a fun use.

I am amazed that someone hasn't put a Drone up Obama or Hillary's ass.
Speaking of . . . .


https://www.rt.com/usa/398698-army-bans-dji-drones/

US Army bans Chinese drones over ‘operational risks & cyber
vulnerabilities’ — RT America
3-4 minutes

The Pentagon has ordered an Army-wide ban on all consumer drones made by
Chinese manufacturer DJI, citing “cyber vulnerabilities associated with
DJI products.”

The US Army has been ordered to “halt use of all DJI products,”
according to an August 2 memo from Lieutenant General Joseph Anderson,
the Army's Deputy Chief of Staff for Plans and Operations.

Additionally, the Army was ordered to “cease all use, uninstall all DJI
applications, remove all batteries/storage media from devices, and
secure equipment for follow on direction,” Anderson wrote in the memo.

The order applies to all DJI Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) as well as
any products that use electrical components or software, including
“flight computers, cameras, radios, batteries, speed controllers, GPS
units, handheld control stations, or devices with DJI software
applications installed.”

The memo, which was obtained by Small UAS News, cites research from the
US Army Research Lab, who found the technology contained “threat and
user vulnerabilities,” and the US Navy, who found there were
“operational risks” with the family of products. No specific information
was provided on what those threats and risks were.

An Army spokesperson later confirmed the order with the Washington Times.

“We can confirm that guidance was issued; however, we are currently
reviewing the guidance and cannot comment further at this time,” the
spokesperson said.

In the past, the off-the-shelf DJI drones were the most widely used by
the Army and the most popular consumer drones in the world, according to
Drone Industry Insights.

The Army had issued over 300 Airworthiness Releases, authorizing the use
of DJI products on aerial missions, according to the memo.

Michael Perry, DJI’s Public Relations Manager, sent an email to Small
UAS News, saying that they had not been informed about the decision.

“We are surprised and disappointed to read reports of the US Army’s
unprompted restriction on DJI drones as we were not consulted during
their decision,” Perry said. “We’ll be reaching out to the US Army to
confirm the memo and to understand what is specifically meant by ‘cyber
vulnerabilities.’”

The Army is considering issuing a statement about the policy change,
Army spokesman Dov Schwartz told Reuters.

DJI is estimated to have secured around 70 percent of the global and
consumer market for drones, according to Reuters. Analysts at Goldman
Sachs estimate that the UAS market will be worth $100 billion by 2020.
They added that the largest market for drones is and will continue to be
the military.

Brett Velicovich, a former Army intelligence soldier who runs Expert
Drones, told Defense One that the memo “could have a huge impact on DJI.”

“There are US special operators in Syria using DJI products,” Velicovich
said. “So I get it. I’m glad [the Army is] finally doing something about
this.”

It means the Army doesn't know jack shit about 'cyber' so everything is
vulnerable. It also might mean the Army has another source of drones
that has political connections and only charges ten times as much.

I just started reading this. The Amazon Kindle edition is very rough but
it was only 99 cents and convenient. His approach is similar for many
technologies but he starts with drones and suggests there is a Moore's
Law for them. The technological genie is out of the bottle and there are
plenty of nerds as good, or better than, the traditional hierarchical
structures. You can't build an Abrams tank with a 3D printer but as the
focus shifts to more sophisticated arenas more people can play.

A friend of mine sent me an MP4 video that he purports is of American
forces shooting up an IS / ISIS / ISIL convoy in Syria. It reminds me
of the Puff the Magic Dragon videos of the US Southern Command taking
out Noriega's forces in Panama during Operation Just Cause. Awesome
video, although I asked for cites and he didn't have them.

It's the first file download here:

Wasn't a big fan of JW after he lost one lung to lung cancer and no
longer had the energy he had previously. I remember smoking some
Acapulco Gold in Fort Collins in 1968 and going with some roomates to
see Wayne in the Green Berets movie. One of the guys I was with
couldn't stop laughing at the movie and got us all thrown out of the
theater, filled with WASP Fort Collins George Wallace supporters. Did
this "Spooky movie" come later than Green Berets?

During the Vietnam War the AC-47 Spooky gunship was nicknamed the
"Dragon" or "Dragon ship" by the Americans because of its armament and
firepower – the nickname soon caught on, and one website without
primary citations indicates that the American troops began to call the
AC-47 "Puff the Magic Dragon".

I believe you're thinking of the kids TV show, Huffin Puff, not "Puff the
Magic Dragon" from the children's song.
While it's a common myth that the song has ties to drugs, it's just that, a
myth.

No, I'm thinking about 'Puff the Magic Dragon' by Peter, Paul and Mary
that was banned from airplay by some stations because clueless idiots
thought it was about drugs. We got a few laughs from that. We also got a
laugh when the Doors pwned Ed Sullivan and when Lawrence Welk mistook
'One Toke Over the Line' for an old spiritual.

They probably even missed the lyrics for Airplane's 'We Can Be Together'.

We are forces of chaos and anarchy
Everything they say we are we are
And we are very proud of ourselves

Up against the wall, motherfucker.

Fast forward fifty years and our so-called leaders are still just as

Nope, but I did see Jefferson Airplane at the Palace Theater in Albany:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palace_Theatre_(Albany,_New_York)

Gracie came on stage and asked in an innocent manner "Is it legal to say
'fuck' in Albany?' There were cops on stage to head off any riot by the
drug crazed hippies. Slick handed one her tambourine and he took it with
a quizzical look on his face. Shortly after he was shaking it against
his leg on the beat. There were no disturbances.

Living in upstate NY was a long way from Sodom on the Hudson. The west
coast scene was completely incomprehensible. I finally made it to Haight
Ashbury about twenty years too late. Oh well. I even missed Woodstock
despite the proximity. The Wednesday prior to the concert I was on my
way to a crappy little island in South Carolina.

Wednesday nights were the nights that Up Against The Wall
Motherfuckers (commonly known as "The Motherfuckers") performed at the
Fillmore East. They were a Dada/anarchist group; you usually could
count on some violence, sometimes with MC5. The Motherfuckers were
yelling "Up against the wall, motherfuckers," while the MC5 was
yelling "Kick out the jams, motherfuckers" and mothers were horrified
everywhere. d8-)

way to a crappy little island in South Carolina.
Don't get me started. Until January, my son lived in the East Village,
around three blocks from what was once the Fillmore East. When I spent
time there, in the late '60s, people were lying in the gutter and
hypodermic syringes were everywhere. You had to travel in groups.

By the time my son moved in, rents were $3,000 - $4,000 for a tiny
one-bedroom apartment and women were walking their poodles alone at
night while wearing Givenchy and Prada.

It's completely gentrified, like much of lower Manhattan now. I hardly
recognize Alphabet City or Soho.

BTW, I missed Woodstock, too. There was a big three-day concert, now
forgotten, a couple of weeks earlier at Atlantic City. I attended that
-- most of the same performers as at Woodstock.

My girlfriend returned from a summer in Italy with two Woodstock
tickets and wanted to go. I said, "Are you kidding? My uncle trains
horses in Woodstock. It's just a bunch of old horse farms. Nothing is
going to happen up there."

I don't gamble, either. <g>

his leg on the beat. There were no disturbances.
Living in upstate NY was a long way from Sodom on the Hudson. The west
coast scene was completely incomprehensible. I finally made it to Haight
Ashbury about twenty years too late. Oh well. I even missed Woodstock
despite the proximity. The Wednesday prior to the concert I was on my
way to a crappy little island in South Carolina.
Don't get me started. Until January, my son lived in the East Village,
around three blocks from what was once the Fillmore East. When I spent
time there, in the late '60s, people were lying in the gutter and
hypodermic syringes were everywhere. You had to travel in groups.
By the time my son moved in, rents were $3,000 - $4,000 for a tiny
one-bedroom apartment and women were walking their poodles alone at
night while wearing Givenchy and Prada.
It's completely gentrified, like much of lower Manhattan now. I hardly
recognize Alphabet City or Soho.
BTW, I missed Woodstock, too. There was a big three-day concert, now
forgotten, a couple of weeks earlier at Atlantic City. I attended that
-- most of the same performers as at Woodstock.
My girlfriend returned from a summer in Italy with two Woodstock
tickets and wanted to go. I said, "Are you kidding? My uncle trains
horses in Woodstock. It's just a bunch of old horse farms. Nothing is
going to happen up there."
Someone, I don't remember who, was quoted as saying, "If you remember
being at Woodstock, you weren't there."

Meanwhile back in excuse-ville:

http://www.11points.com/Music/11_Bands_That_Skipped_Woodstock_For_Incredibly_Lame_Reasons

Bob Dylan - fear of a gathering storm of hippies

Jethro Tull - fear of naked ladies - Seriously.

Led Zeppelin - concert in New Jersey instead

Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention - too much mud - Zappa turned
down the gig last minute because he heard rain was coming and didn't
want to play around all that mud.

Joni Mitchell - didn't want to miss the "Dick Cavett Show" the following
Tuesday

I-ron Butterfly - demanded helicopters for transportation

The Doors - fear of getting shot by someone in the crowd

The Beatles - Yoko wasn't invited too

Rolling Stones - Mick Jagger was shooting a bad movie in Australia

Eric Clapton - in England with Steve Winwood working really hard on
getting their new band off the ground

Roy Rogers - accurately realized it wasn't really his scene - The
organizers wanted him to come on at the end of the show and sing "Happy
Trails To You".

That's my excuse for the '70s in general. Altamont put paid to the '60s
and it was all downhill from there.

Robin Williams, Mork from Ork, I do believe.

My ex and her mother each bought a condo in the area I knew as Hell's
Kitchen where the Westies roamed. I didn't ask what they cost.

I haven't been in NYC since the late '80s. The Deuce was all clean,
sparkly, and no fun at all. I never had a problem there although one
night as I was watching the circus a couple of black guys crossed the
street to ask me if I was the new narc on the block. "Just a tourist,
nothing to see here." My default setting is Condition Yellow and I
stood out among the sleepwalkers.

“We are surprised and disappointed to read reports of the US Army’s
unprompted restriction on DJI drones as we were not consulted during
their decision,” Perry said. “We’ll be reaching out to the US Army to
confirm the memo and to understand what is specifically meant by ‘cyber
vulnerabilities.’”
It means the Army doesn't know jack shit about 'cyber' so everything is
vulnerable. It also might mean the Army has another source of drones
that has political connections and only charges ten times as much.

I just started reading this. The Amazon Kindle edition is very rough but
it was only 99 cents and convenient. His approach is similar for many
technologies but he starts with drones and suggests there is a Moore's
Law for them. The technological genie is out of the bottle and there are
plenty of nerds as good, or better than, the traditional hierarchical
structures. You can't build an Abrams tank with a 3D printer but as the
focus shifts to more sophisticated arenas more people can play.
A friend of mine sent me an MP4 video that he purports is of American
forces shooting up an IS / ISIS / ISIL convoy in Syria. It reminds me
of the Puff the Magic Dragon videos of the US Southern Command taking
out Noriega's forces in Panama during Operation Just Cause. Awesome
video, although I asked for cites and he didn't have them.

Its video from a video game.
This one however..is real

Man, the video game is better eye candy. I saw that ROC soldiers are
training without live ammo, supposedly to keep the noise down and reduce
the chance of friendly fire. Still, it would make real combat seem like
a flashback from a video game. I suppose robot soldiers are the next
big thing.
