Poker-faced meeting: Putin, Obama avoid pushing sore points

June 19, 2012 02:45

Presidents Putin and Obama seem to have found some common ground on Syria and have pledged to continue dialog on the controversial European missile shield, but despite the optimistic rhetoric many issues between the two states remain unresolved.

Some specialists say that personal loans help people to live the way they want, just because they are able to feel free to buy necessary things. Moreover, some banks give auto loan for different classes of people.

To SPARKS7366,

Y our Constitution that you love so dearly has been well and truly destroyed by Obama and both the political parties.

The bill that Obama recently gave his approval to allows for the indefinite detention of any citizen , without trial or charge.

No pu pu -go check on it.

 How about your land of the free now?
That term can only be used in the past tense.

@Beautiful wife, he spreads those rumors to garner him a certain type of attention.  If you even think about him like that, he uses psychotronic weapons on you, which is ridiculous.  I have no drive/ motivation or emotion now.  All I want to do is lay there.  This is why the lobotomy wasn't popular.  I'm a 25 year old hag, thousands of miles away.  That isn't even possible.  I expect some sort of fixing to occur.

G20 was certainly the right choice for Putin’s focus, whilst many will focus on individual issues, like Syria, like the Euro zone economy, and whilst all those issues are definitely the core substantive issues of the day, there was something else bigger going on, a bigger picture, and Obama and Putin’s faces said it all. That bigger picture was the check and balance in world affairs that is now emerging, in true multi-polar fashion, as Russia builds further on the solid recovery and foundations, laid down by Putin and Medvedev over the last 12 years. Indeed Russia now looks a solid outfit on the world stage, transformed from a meek, humble, humiliated player struggling to stay in the game into again a major player in that game. A huge achievement by Putin, that is not only good for Russia, but also good for everyone, including ordinary western people, as more extravagant western folly adventures are gradually being reined in, in terms of a pure military dimension. This is a true reset of the world back to one containing checks and balances. One can only shudder at the thought of a sycophantic westernphile ‘opposition’ leader in place of Putin, who would be bowing, grovelling and smiling, putting not only Russia in danger, but the whole world as well, for their own gain. But whilst Russia is ‘there’ now, of course that doesn’t mean it’s all over, or that Russia somehow can get what it wants. It just means the stage is a more complex political one now, with emerging checks and balances, and the game has moved from ‘just bomb em’ to we need do this whilst still looking good. Now this isn’t yet a total solution to stepping back to the rule of law in the world. However it is not only a start, but even better a big step in the right direction. Russia is leading in this, in the not too distant future Germany, China and India will also coalesce around what will become a new multi-polar check and balance system to ensure an international system holding to the rule of law.

Starlight (unregistered) June 19, 2012, 23:15  0 For those interested go to Leap2020.eu and read: GEAB Public announcement number 66. Since the end of the nervously awaited Greek elections by the world community and the meeting of the world leaders at the present G20 meeting, the economic anticipations of the first half of 2012 have occurred, the insolvency of western banks and no growth have all come about. The coming autumn will bring unbelievable financial shocks internatioanlly and the eurosceptics should crawl back from whence they came. I hope these world leaders should also take note on what is about to be unleashed. As they are our supposed leaders and I hope they know what they are doing. Especially Wall Street and London.I'm sorry but your leap2020 I disagree with the comments regarding the constitution as of being out dated and the privileges.  There are no privileges in the constitutions, they are called unalienable RIGHTS.It will never be outdated!  Those that the article claim and is receiving the privileges under the constitution is you.  We the people proclaim are unalienable Rights under the Constitution!!!!

The BBC recently done a documentary on Putin. It was a subtle dose of character assassination on the russian leader. Designed to discredit and demonise him in the eyes of the viewer. As a person who has seen, up close, here in the british occuppied part of Ireland, the devious ways the british demonise and undermine anyone who doesnt agree with their policies, it seems that the british are out to usurp putins leadership. I would caution any Russian who looks to the citizens of the west with envy. The grass might be greener on the other side but its very hard to cut! Personally i use the barometer that if the british/u.s dont like somebody then that somebody might not be too bad after all.

For over a hundred years America had a foreign policy that was: Trade with all intervene with none. America never involved itself in offensive wars until its 1898 war with Spain. From then on, all the wars America's been in were offensive from America's side.  Now, since the fall of the USSR America's been pursuing a goal that it would be ruler of the world. Propaganda screams defensive but reality says offensive. Mr. Putin has drawn a line in the sand for America. The American Indians had a saying: White man speak with forked tongue. Practically ever agreement America has entered into since 1989 had been breached with a test of power. Obama has the power of a bar room bully but the sense to know when to fold em'. Does his administration know when to fold em'?

There are no countries left who can defeat America.  The reason for this is because they can not think like an American.  I am an American.  The only leader that ever existed who thought like an American was Hitler. 911 was an inside nuclear demolition.  If you study this you will learn that Americans do not negotiate.  It is important that you bomb the American mainland with 100% nuclear and non-nuclear weapons.  Even if you loose in the end.  The psychological effect on the American ego would bring the change the country needs to run efficiently. America must be smashed for it's own good.  Americans need to taste their own blood to appreciate their own crimes. They never understand they are fools.  Once they are smashed then their papmered vaginas can be organized for some good.  Nuclear blasts in DC would be very symbolic.  Texas might be a nice place for a nuke as well.  Maybe some HAARP activity in California.  Create the state into a mudlisde right off into the Pacific.  If you worry about the human casualties you are not reptilian american.  You will loose unless you know your enemy.  It can NOT understand.  It does NOT care.  It must be wiped off the Earth.  Now.

This all well and good but there are are underlying issues and that is what do the Zionist in Israel and America want? If America doesn't get it's way to make "black gold" oil, the international backer of the dollar, what are they going to use? All the Federal Reserve Notes (FRN's) printed are completely counterfeit in that they have zero backing. As far as Obama goes he does not have nearly as much control as Putin has and the people in power over him have there own agenda.

Idiotic propaganda from some internet troll who could be anything from a CIA plant to an Estonian neo nazi to an Islamist fascist.....I'm always amazed at the lies human garbage like this tell about Putin...These absurd statements make me realize that Putin is public enemy #1 of the NATO/OIL new world order and they will say or do anything to get rid of him.

Here's whats going on.......Obama has or will offer Putin a deal which will say that even if Syria falls, America will tell the new Syrian Gov. to keep Russia's naval base open for many more years. The truth of the matter is that once Syria falls Russia will lose its naval base.
Your right on target on everything...but my only problem is....no "leader" gives a craap about their citizens...plain and simple...and i can prove this....Putin gassed his own...Dubrovka Theater on 23 October 2002...to kill 39 "terrorist" he killed a 129 of his OWN citizens...and wouldnt tell their families what kind of gas he used....and you guys still allowed him to be a "leader"...im confused how that can happen.

My advice Mr. Putin is that you demand the missile sheild include you in all aspects from control of rada, firing of missiles and to also be able to keep the naval base. Anything else Russia will lose everything.

A merica doesn't care about the people but only to create a network of bases and allies that will protect its interests or should I say the BIG banking families i.e Rothchilds

if Putin doesn't already ahve to play the "diplomat" as leader of a powerful country in its own right -- with its own history that is precious to its people - I don't even think Putin should be MEETING with obama AT ALL...least of all to even give Obama the time of day. 
or - as they HAD to do - have a meeting -- whether Putin should even LOOK at obama.....
obama doesn't deserve to be in the SAME room as putin...or even shine putin's shoes. 
I hope Putin and the russians also never forget two remarks from the USA leaders in the 1990's: 
"It's SO UNFAIR !!!!....that ONE country has ALL those resources...somethin g OUGHT to be done about it" -- MAdeleine Albright, refering to Russia and her rich resources.
long ago -- when i was just getting used to the internent...one of the first things I ever STUMBLED ON was a "leak" -- that later disappeared and i could NEVER find it again no matter what search engine: 
it was supposedly from inner pentagon remarks concerning russia in the 1990s when russia was in chaos under yeltsin: 
"Russi a is now so WEAKENED militarily and other ways that it is now possible to contemplate a LAND INVASION"

ima gine that......
couple d with Albright's "What GOOD is all this GREAT ARMY of OURS if we CAN'T USE IT?" 
for land and resource grabs -- of course......
TYPI CAL - HISTORICALLY DEMONSTRATED AMERICAN POLICIES. from the day the Europeans "discovered the new world" belonging to the Natives.....
and it has followed that course ever since....
