By this morning there have been already over 50 attacks against Muslims in France.
The next number of Charlie Hebdo will feature a frontpage caricature of the Prophet Mohammed. This issue will be printed at 3 million copies in 16 languages ( as opposed to 60'000 only in French).
Numerous Russian and Novorussian sources are now reporting large tank movements towards key Novorussian cities. There has also been massive shelling by Ukrainian artillery of Novorussian cities.
Poroshenko will sign tomorrow a 4th mobilization which this time will include women.
George Soros is visiting the Ukraine.

Blog News: banned topics
Dear friends,
Some of you might now that I have banned the topic of climate change. I did not do a very good job enforcing that. I have to now add two more topics to the banned list: any discussion about the former French Saker or former Serbian Saker blogs or anybody associated with them or any entity linked in any way with any of the persons associated with them is now completely banned. Please don't ask me why, or speculate about the reasons. Please trust me when I say that this ban is needed and important for the entire Saker community. I also ask all the other Saker blogs to stick to the same rule.

Yats is Charlie and Ukrainian junta shelling the Donbass (again)
You might have heard that "Yats" has made a great recently: according to him during WWII the USSR invaded the Ukraine and Germany. I would expect no less of him. But the truly pathetic part came from the German Ministry of Foreign Affairs which declared that it respected Yats' right to free speech.
Clearly, "Yats is Charlie".
In other news, the Ukrainian junta has resumed and even dramatically stepped up the shelling of Novorussia. So far, the firing appears to be of the typical terror strikes kind - randomly aimed at the civilian sectors but this could also be a way to probe the Novorussian counter-battery fire capabilities and artillery positions (thanks for the counter-battery radars delivered by the USA to the Nazis).
The most worrisome development, however, is the confirmation by Foreign Minister Lavrov that the Russians have intelligence showing that the Ukrainian junta is preparing for a full scale assault on Novorussia. This would make perfect sense: now that the entire world has its eyes focused on the wonderful show of unity by the world for freedom of speech and against terrorism, it is a prefect time for a bloodbath in Novorussia.

Chechen leader blasts Europe over double standards on terrorism
RT reports
The unprecedented public response to the Charlie Hebdo shootings in France could be organized by those who want to stir anti-Islamic sentiment and distract people from other problems, claims the leader of Chechnya Ramzan Kadyrov.
The head of the Chechen Republic explained his position through his longtime medium of choice – the Instagram photo sharing service. In an extensive post accompanying a picture of himself Kadyrov said that he welcomed the “single-hearted” denouncing of terrorism by world leaders as well as the millions of people taking part in demonstrations in Paris. He also condemned the killing of unarmed people by terrorists and considered the fight against terrorism the most important task in his life.
At the same time Kadyrov posed a question. Was the denouncing aimed at terrorism only in France or were the public figures and people targeting the evil all over the World?
“Why the presidents, kings and prime ministers have never led marches of protest against the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Afghans, Syrians, Egyptians, Libyans, Yemenis, and Iraqis? Why did they remain silent when terrorists exploded a bomb in the Chechen government HQ or when they blew up the Grozny stadium killing Chechen President Akhmad-Haji Kadyrov [Ramzan Kadyrov’s father] and his aides? Why did they not react to the raid on the school in Beslan and the hostage taking at Moscow’s Dubrovka Theater? Why keep silent when in December last year terrorists captured the House of Press and a school in Grozny, killing and injuring over 50 people?” Kadyrov writes in his latest address.
“It is impossible to secure Paris, London, Madrid and other European capitals if the whole society fails to condemn those who raise and sponsor terrorists all over the world masking it as support for opposition movements,” Kadyrov stated.
The Chechen strongman wrote that he suspected some powerful forces of preparing the whole scenario in order to incite an anti-Islamic mood in Europe or to distract public attention from some brewing global problem.
A fervent believer in Islam, Kadyrov also wrote that he and his allies would not allow anyone to insult the Prophet, even if this would cost them their lives. “If we are still silent this does not mean that we cannot get millions of people onto the streets all over the world protesting against those who connive at the insults to Muslims’ religious feelings. Is this what you want?” he stated, apparently addressing the political leaders of the Western world.
The head of the Chechen republic also suggested the mass media had “allowed themselves to get involved in the scandal,” and should apologize to Muslims to end the controversy. “Peace and stability are more important for all peoples than the right of a handful of journalists to disrespect the Prophet,” he wrote.

Brainwashed zombies and hypocrites
So up to 3 million people took to the streets of Paris, including 40 heads of state, to denounce the murders of 17 victims of a streak of Takfiri terror attacks this past week.
Where were they?
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Afghanistan? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the Shia of Saudi Arabia? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against Shia of Bahrain? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Chechnia? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the Serbian people? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against Libyan people? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the Syrian people? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Iraq? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Kurdistan? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Lebanon? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Nigeria? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Pakistan? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of India? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Russia? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Somalia? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Kenya? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Yemen? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Algeria? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Indonesia? Nowhere.
Where were these 3 millions and 40 heads of state when abject Takfiri terror was unleashed against the people of Iran? Nowhere.
Why not?
More questions
Did they not crucify babies in Algeria? Did they not torture hostages on video in Chechnia? Did they not spray weddings with bullets in Bosnia? Did they not blow up bombs in Indonesia? Did they not skin people alive in Afghanistan? Did they not keep hostages with live wolves in holes in Chechnia? Did they not torture to death and crucify people in Syria?
Or is it that some innocent victims are more equal then others?
Why is it that when all of Europe supported the Syrian Takfiris AND the Ukrainian Nazis 3 million of people did not take to the streets?
How many of those 3 million people and 40 heads of state really do not know that Takfirism has been lovingly and carefully nurtured, organized, financed, trained, federated, directed, supported, armed and protected by the AngloZionist Empire?
How many of those 3 million people and 40 heads of state really do not know that Takfirism is a golem which has two functions - to be unleashed against those who dare disobey the Empire and to terrify the people of the West into accepting a police state?
Will we ever learn?
We have already seen all that. On 9/11 the American people were literally conditioned to react with fear and hysteria. It worked perfectly and we all know how that ended: with many major wars and millions (Iraq!) of dead people. Most Americans simply stopped thinking and substituted a panic reaction to careful analysis. Today Europe is doing exactly the same thing. The same causes will yield the same results. Will we ever learn?
And who is the enemy anyway?
Oh sure, they are being oblique about it. "We are not against Islam!!", "Islam is a religion of peace!!" , "we have nothing against Muslims!!!".
Yeah, right!
The truth is while "they" have nothing against "Islam" and "good Muslims" they ALSO "just happen" to think that "multiculturalism has failed" and that "Islam is incompatible with western societies". Not only that, but since "bad Muslims" tend to hide amongst "good Muslims", let's just stay on the "safe side" and keep a very VERY "close eye" on all "them Muslims" just in case one of them happened to suddenly turn into a crazed Jihadi suicide bomber. Right?
Wrong!
Did you notice how ALL these Takfiri freaks "just happen" to have had PLENTY of contacts of all sorts with western security services? It's like a Ku Klux Klan meeting in the USA: for 10 hooded participants you have 2 morons and 8 Federal Agents working undercover. Same exact deal for these Takfiris. And then the two morons do something really really bad, and the 8 Federal Agents "just happen" to vanish in thin air (or commit suicide). Does that have anything to do with Islam? Of course not. It has everything to do with the deep state and the covert manipulation of probably every single terrorist group on the planet.
So what would make more sense: to fear Muslims or the western security services which carefully manipulate the Takfiri freaks?
The truth is what the very same western security agencies which control the Takfiri freaks want us all to hate Muslims. Why? Simply to create an atmosphere if social chaos, civil strive and even civil war. So while we are busing hunting down those "evil Muslims" they can continue to exploit us all.
So what can we do?
Simple! Our imperial overlords want us to do exactly three things:
What we saw today in Paris was 3 millions and 40 heads of state demonstrating for two basic reasons: some were brainwashed by the media frenzy, others did so for political reasons. 3 million brainwashed zombies and hypocrites. Let them. But let us also proclaim loud and clear that we are NOT falling into their trap, that they will NOT pollute our souls with hatred and our brains with stupidity, that if there are millions of brainwashed and zombified people, there are billions who see through the lies and who reject this entire "mental landscape" of hate, fear and stupidity.

Open Letter to the Saker Community and all our friends
Dear friends,
What is happening right now is huge, we are dealing with nothing less than a full-scale "French September 11th", no less. At this point, I am not saying that the French state did it, or even let it happen. But what is certain is that at the very least the French state and the corporate media are making maximal use of the various terrorist murders in France to promote their agenda. We all know what happened the last time around (click here if you forgot).
The house is burning!
For many months now Alain Soral and others have been warning that the French regime is pushing towards a civil war between the Muslim and non-Muslim communities in France and this is exactly what we are seeing, but it is even bigger than France - this is reaching all of Europe now. Considering how my editorial "I am NOT Charlie" was completely misunderstood (or deliberately misinterpreted) I feel the need to specify a few things very clearly and for the record:
First, it does not really matter at this point in time if what we saw in France is a false flag or a case of blow-back just as when a house is burning it matters little who set it on fire, the owner or the neighbor. What matters now is to prevent people from dying in the burning house, only then does it make sense to open an investigation into "who done it". What matters now is that the house is burning.
Second, there is absolutely zero doubt, none whatsoever, that the AngloZionist Empire is behind the "transnational Takfiri infection" of our planet. It all began during the Cold War and the "brilliant" Brzezinski/CIA plan to unleash the crazies against the Soviet forces in Afghanistan. This is when the US literally financed, organized, trained, equipped and, most importantly, federated the Wahabi freaks for the first time. Since, we saw them in action in Chechina, Bosnia, Kosovo, Libya, Syria, Iraq, and many other places and now we see them "in action" in Paris. Hollande, Sarko and his "unofficial Foreign Minister" Bernard Henri-Levi played a key role in unleashing these monsters against Libya and Syria just as the French "New (pseudo-) Philosophers" like Alain Finkelkraut played a key role in unleashing these monsters against Bosnia. So here is the key point I will stress in bold: the Takfiri maniacs who committed all the murders in France are NOT "children" of the "Islamic Umma" but of the French deep-state and the Anglo-Zionist Empire. They "own" these freaks, not Hassan Nasrallah or Ramzan Kadyrov!
Third, the propaganda machine of the AngloZionist Empire is telling us that "Islam is the enemy" or that "Islam is not compatible with western values". But to prove their point they use examples which prove nothing: the example of the Takfiri crazies unleashed, I will never cease to repeat it, by the AngloZionists. The merits and faults of Islam as a religion have nothing to do with the events of Paris. Nothing. Takfirism is to Islam what Nazism is to the Western civilization: a vicious and pathological expression of demonic hatred masquerading as the defense of a culture/civilization/religion. Nazism does not "prove" that the West is inherently evil and Takfirism does not prove that about Islam. Now, please pay attention, it *might* be that there is something really wrong (or not) with western civilization or Islam, but you cannot prove that by using the example of Nazism or Takfirism.
It means that we are in for some exceptionally hard times. I have never received as much hate mail than over the past 24 hours. I am accused of being a religious fanatic, a bigot, an unconditional supporter of Islam, of approving of executions, of being a fascist and, of course, an anti-Semite. Second, I have to report that the entire infrastructure of the Saker Community is now at risk due to the resignation of some absolutely crucial persons who have decided to cut all ties with the Saker community due to profound disagreements with my opinions. I am currently scrambling to try to find a solution and the people who resigned have promised me that they will help me in making the transition. Still, it is undeniable that in two crucial aspects we, our entire community, is now extremely vulnerable:
a) the registration of various vineyardsaker.* domain names
b) the IT backup arrangement in case of a technical problem with our servers (whether due to an attack or to a technical issue)
Furthermore, I have had to take the decision to hire a lawyer to help me protect the various vineyardsaker.* websites and myself from potential abusive lawsuits and this will cost me a lot of money and will take some time. Right now, not only is my "thin anonymity" directly threatened, but the very existence of our various blogs is threatened too.
Furthermore, I think that our community will suffer from a lot of attacks, defections and personal attacks. What the AngloZionists are trying to organize right now is an anti-Muslim lynchmob, their famous "clash of civilizations" and I cannot stand for that. I will not be a bystander to that abomination and I will try has hard as I can to denounce it for the immoral, stupid fraud it is. Not because I am a "closet Islamist" or because I support murdering reporters, but because I categorically refuse to join any lynch mob and because I categorically reject the notion of a clash of civilizations.
==>>The current polarization will become worse and more intense<<==
For our community this means that we will lose readers, friends and even collaborators. Make no mistake, those who follow the news on the idiot box are now in a state of total hysteria and they will perceive anybody not joining in as a evil, crazy "Islamofascist". We will all pay a price for not joining in the general hysteria.
Be prepared and accept that as the price to pay for doing the right thing.
How you can help
Oh boy, know I sure do need your help more then ever before. Please remember that I am ONE GUY and that I cannot do it all all alone. So here is what you can do to help:
Problem one: computers and backup/security issues.
Until today we had a system setup in which all the various Saker blogs were automatically backed up into a third-party server. If case of technical crash, or DDoS attack, or cracking-defacing all it would have taken is to switch the attacked domain name to a different IP and the original blog would have been back up again. We lost that yesterday.
So, if you own and run servers and if you are willing to take over this "emergency backup" function please contact me ASAP.
Second, I am now in dire need of backend/server specialists to help with any technical issues related to keeping all the Saker Blogs up and running. If you have that type of skills, please email me ASAP.
Third, I am very concerned that I will further lose webmasters and backend/server specialists. If you have that type of skills, please email me ASAP.
Fourth, my main webmaster (Gevorg in Armenia) has done a stellar job preparing the new blog and he is now most generously donating his time to help me weather this crisis (right now he is literally running the new blog alone with the help of only one pre-moderator for comments). I would ask our community to pitch in and help me collect donations for Gevorg to help him for his dedication. So please send me whatever donation you can for Gevorg and please indicate "for Gevorg" on your PayPal donation.
Problem two: legal expenditures
As I have mentioned, I am going to incur some serious legal costs to try to set up some kind of LLC+trust to find a permanent solution for all the domain names and to protect everybody from abusive legal attacks. So, if you happen to be reasonably well off (sorry, but a small donation will just not help in this case) and if you can help me pay the lawyers to protect the entire community, please help me raise the funds needed to cover the legal costs. If you do send me a contribution for this purpose, please clearly indicate "for legal matters" on your donation or, better, please email me.
Also, if you are a lawyer in the USA and you are willing to work pro bono to help, please contact me.
Now, I think that I will add something which I have been thinking about for a while but never dared to do. But since the house is burning, I might as well I suppose, it ain't gonna make things worse...
My special appeal to those with big means (financial or other)
I don't know if you exist, but I will assume that you do. I see you as a person who has been reading the Saker Blog for a while already, and who has seen this community grow in response to the dramatic developments in the Ukraine. Though you are a person with big means (financial or other), you have very much been on "our side" and you have seen how day after day we all - our entire community - have been making a difference. Even though what was originally just a "one anonymous guy's blog" has turned into a worldwide community of 8 blogs, written in 5 languages on 4 continents it has done so entirely through the time, efforts and dedication of volunteers who did that on their so-called "free time". And yet we are fighting a huge EMPIRE, with a multi-billion dollars planetary corporate media, backed my a network of plutocrats and financiers which can cough up literally millions of dollars without even a tiny crease in their net worth of bottom line. Some of us are unemployed, or make minimal wage. Most of us, I know that for a fact, live from paycheck to paycheck. Alternatively, some of us have two full-time jobs (like myself, and we still live from paycheck to paycheck). Lenin spoke of the need for "professional revolutionaries". Well, I sure wish he was alive today to help us. But then, he had rich bankers supporting him (and Trotsky). We don't. And yet, it is still true that "Pecunia nervus belli" (money forms the sinews/nerve of war). So how can we fight this war when we are struggling to pay our bills, nevermind investing into this war?
So if you do exist and if you are reading these words of mine you can do one of two things to really help us all:
a) help us pay our bills
b) help us pay for our "war effort" (we have no communication budget, no travel budget, our IT is staffed by volunteers, our translators don't even get a waitress' tip, many of us are grossly under-equipped or have a terrible Internet access. One of the founding members of one of our blogs has had to stop helping us because he could not pay for his Internet connection!).
Right now, there is one very generous person who has covered all the server costs for the entire community and one other generous person who has quite literally helped my family from sinking further into debt. And yet I am quite sure that neither of them is truly wealthy. Without these two men our entire community would disappear. And yet we are touching many hundred of thousand of people out there, including you.
Of course, it would be nice if you could simply pay our bills, but I dare not hope for that kind of help. But maybe you have the skills and expertise to help us finance our efforts by setting up a foundation, or by establishing a trust fund? Or maybe you can get together with a few friends and together find a way to keep our community from struggle so hard against "petty" but painful daily problems?
The stakes are sky high. Not only is there a real risk of civil war in France and in other parts of Europe, there is now a real possibility of a continental war in the Ukraine and even a total intercontinental nuclear war between the USA and Russia is not impossible any more.
Just last week I received an very concerned email from a former (now retired) Primate of an Autocephalus Orthodox Church (one of the biggest ones!) telling me that he and his very well connected friends and sources were truly worried about a war breaking out between Russia and the USA. Former top level politicians like Paul Craig Roberts are now only warning about the risks of war. I have friends in Germany who tell me that the German military is preparing for war. I know for a fact that Russia has been preparing for a US/NATO attack for months already. This is not paranoia, this is were this accursed Empire has taken us: to the brink of war. We in the Saker community are doing all we can to prevent that and to not be a bystander, but we need all the help we can get as things are clearly becoming very ugly right now.
So, my unknown "supporter of real means" - now is the time to really help. If you can, do it. If you wait any further, it might be too late.
I don't expect Bill Gates or Vladimir Putin to read these words. But if you are somebody with means and/or power and if can help us in this struggle, then please consider that these words are addressed personally to you.
A few final words for now
Okay, I said all I had to say for the time being. I will be hard to reach in the next couple of days as I will be scrambling to try to keep together what it took so much time to build. If you hate my guts for "supporting religious murders" and despise me for speaking about money, please be sure that I am already quite aware of your views. If you insist, you can post them here, but you will be wasting everybody's time (and if you sincerely want to understand what I stand for, get rid of your idiot-box and re-read what I wrote in a couple of days and it will probably make sense again).
To the many of you who did email me with words of support and encouragement, a big thank you! You have no idea how much a friendly voice can help a person who is vilified and abandoned by friends.
To all I say this: if we really are a COMMUNITY then it makes sense for me to reach out to all of you to help us all survive this AS A COMMUNITY, together. There is enough of us, but now we have to pull together if we want to survive and continue the struggle. I won't be able to do it all alone.
Kind regards and thanks,
The Saker

Now, please pay attention, it *might* be that there is something really wrong (or not) with western civilization or Islam, but you cannot prove that by using the example of Nazism or Takfirism.
[Sidebar: contrary to what a lot of dishonest or plain stupid people accused me of doing, I am NOT an apologist for Islam. As a matter of fact, one of my biggest problems with Islam is its support for the death penalty (which I oppose) and especially its support of the death penalty for blasphemers and apostates (which I find absurd). All I said was that when you deeply offend 1.6 billion people - regardless of who these 1.6 billion people are or what they believe in - you will always and inevitably find 1-5 willing to kill you for doing so. I was not condoning anything, I was explaining it!! How friggin stupid (or dishonest!) not to be able to tell the difference between the two...]Fourth, just as in 9/11 the very predictable reaction of the French authorities and the rest of the imperial media is to crack down on civil liberties, to create "minutes of hate", to stir up a bellicose hysteria fed by fear and anger all of which very conveniently take away the public's attention from the dying EU, the crumbling economy, the exploitation of the poor by the rich 1%ers and the fact that we all live in a society which wants us to become serfs in a planetary empire. I even get the strong feeling that since the AngloZionist plan for the Ukraine is falling apart, they have 'switched' from the "Invading Russian Bear" to the "Crazy Muslim Terrorist" narrative to terrify the general population.
[Sidebar: I have been absolutely appalled at RT's coverage of these events. Somebody at the top of RT clearly has taken the decision to fully endorse this nonsensical "Muslim terrorist threat" narrative and that is a clear sign that the 5th column of "Atlantic Integrationists" has its fingers reaching deep inside the RT top management]So what does it mean for our community?
It means that we are in for some exceptionally hard times. I have never received as much hate mail than over the past 24 hours. I am accused of being a religious fanatic, a bigot, an unconditional supporter of Islam, of approving of executions, of being a fascist and, of course, an anti-Semite. Second, I have to report that the entire infrastructure of the Saker Community is now at risk due to the resignation of some absolutely crucial persons who have decided to cut all ties with the Saker community due to profound disagreements with my opinions.

Right now, not only is my "thin anonymity" directly threatened, but the very existence of our various blogs is threatened too.
[Sidebar: just as a reminder, I cherish what I call my "thin anonymity" (lots of folks know who I am, as do all the interested governments) because it helps stay focused on issues rather then on persons. Not only am I not interested in any personal recognition, I don't want to be a topic at all. And I want to keep the inevitable crazies from harassing me with their insanity. So it is very important for me, but if I have to lose it over this crisis then so be it. I rather not, but if there is no other way, I will.]I will try to cope with all of this, but this will severely disrupt my ability to follow events, analyze the situation, deal with the various community related issues or iron our kinks on the new website. So for the next couple of days/weeks I ask for your understanding and forgiveness.
Furthermore, I think that our community will suffer from a lot of attacks, defections and personal attacks. What the AngloZionists are trying to organize right now is an anti-Muslim lynchmob, their famous "clash of civilizations" and I cannot stand for that. I will not be a bystander to that abomination and I will try has hard as I can to denounce it for the immoral, stupid fraud it is. Not because I am a "closet Islamist" or because I support murdering reporters, but because I categorically refuse to join any lynch mob and because I categorically reject the notion of a clash of civilizations.
[Sidebar: "the clash of civilizations" right? In these difficult times, do you know which two groups of friends came out in my support? Serbs and Muslims who, at least according to the official Imperial narrative are supposed to be enemies, right? So much for the supposed hatred between these people; but then again, Chechens and Russians are also supposed to hate each other while in realty, and much to the AngloZionist's chagrin, they are fighting the Ukrainian Nazis side by side in the Donbass]And make no mistake, things are about to get much, much worse. Here is already a link to a photo of a half-naked "Femen" with "f**k the xxx" (here xxx stands for the Quran whose name I did not want to print next to the profanity) written on her chest while she burns and steps on the Quran (please only click to see for yourself if you are not Muslim) here. I fully except that this kind of "exercises in freedom of speech" will multiply and become widespread as will the reactions from Muslims ranging from true ones to false flags.
==>>The current polarization will become worse and more intense<<==
For our community this means that we will lose readers, friends and even collaborators. Make no mistake, those who follow the news on the idiot box are now in a state of total hysteria and they will perceive anybody not joining in as a evil, crazy "Islamofascist". We will all pay a price for not joining in the general hysteria.
Be prepared and accept that as the price to pay for doing the right thing.

My goal is simple: to create a legal structure which would protect myself and entire Saker community on two levels: the anonymity of those who want to remain anonymous and a protection from any nasty lawsuits or other forms of legal harassment for everybody in the community. I cannot do that alone - so please help!
Now, I think that I will add something which I have been thinking about for a while but never dared to do. But since the house is burning, I might as well I suppose, it ain't gonna make things worse...
My special appeal to those with big means (financial or other)
I don't know if you exist, but I will assume that you do. I see you as a person who has been reading the Saker Blog for a while already, and who has seen this community grow in response to the dramatic developments in the Ukraine. Though you are a person with big means (financial or other), you have very much been on "our side" and you have seen how day after day we all - our entire community - have been making a difference. Even though what was originally just a "one anonymous guy's blog" has turned into a worldwide community of 8 blogs, written in 5 languages on 4 continents it has done so entirely through the time, efforts and dedication of volunteers who did that on their so-called "free time". And yet we are fighting a huge EMPIRE, with a multi-billion dollars planetary corporate media, backed my a network of plutocrats and financiers which can cough up literally millions of dollars without even a tiny crease in their net worth of bottom line. Some of us are unemployed, or make minimal wage. Most of us, I know that for a fact, live from paycheck to paycheck. Alternatively, some of us have two full-time jobs (like myself, and we still live from paycheck to paycheck). Lenin spoke of the need for "professional revolutionaries". Well, I sure wish he was alive today to help us. But then, he had rich bankers supporting him (and Trotsky). We don't. And yet, it is still true that "Pecunia nervus belli" (money forms the sinews/nerve of war). So how can we fight this war when we are struggling to pay our bills, nevermind investing into this war?
So if you do exist and if you are reading these words of mine you can do one of two things to really help us all:
a) help us pay our bills
b) help us pay for our "war effort" (we have no communication budget, no travel budget, our IT is staffed by volunteers, our translators don't even get a waitress' tip, many of us are grossly under-equipped or have a terrible Internet access. One of the founding members of one of our blogs has had to stop helping us because he could not pay for his Internet connection!).
Right now, there is one very generous person who has covered all the server costs for the entire community and one other generous person who has quite literally helped my family from sinking further into debt. And yet I am quite sure that neither of them is truly wealthy. Without these two men our entire community would disappear. And yet we are touching many hundred of thousand of people out there, including you.
Of course, it would be nice if you could simply pay our bills, but I dare not hope for that kind of help. But maybe you have the skills and expertise to help us finance our efforts by setting up a foundation, or by establishing a trust fund? Or maybe you can get together with a few friends and together find a way to keep our community from struggle so hard against "petty" but painful daily problems?
The stakes are sky high. Not only is there a real risk of civil war in France and in other parts of Europe, there is now a real possibility of a continental war in the Ukraine and even a total intercontinental nuclear war between the USA and Russia is not impossible any more.
Just last week I received an very concerned email from a former (now retired) Primate of an Autocephalus Orthodox Church (one of the biggest ones!) telling me that he and his very well connected friends and sources were truly worried about a war breaking out between Russia and the USA. Former top level politicians like Paul Craig Roberts are now only warning about the risks of war. I have friends in Germany who tell me that the German military is preparing for war. I know for a fact that Russia has been preparing for a US/NATO attack for months already. This is not paranoia, this is were this accursed Empire has taken us: to the brink of war. We in the Saker community are doing all we can to prevent that and to not be a bystander, but we need all the help we can get as things are clearly becoming very ugly right now.
So, my unknown "supporter of real means" - now is the time to really help. If you can, do it. If you wait any further, it might be too late.
I don't expect Bill Gates or Vladimir Putin to read these words. But if you are somebody with means and/or power and if can help us in this struggle, then please consider that these words are addressed personally to you.
A few final words for now
Okay, I said all I had to say for the time being. I will be hard to reach in the next couple of days as I will be scrambling to try to keep together what it took so much time to build. If you hate my guts for "supporting religious murders" and despise me for speaking about money, please be sure that I am already quite aware of your views. If you insist, you can post them here, but you will be wasting everybody's time (and if you sincerely want to understand what I stand for, get rid of your idiot-box and re-read what I wrote in a couple of days and it will probably make sense again).
To the many of you who did email me with words of support and encouragement, a big thank you! You have no idea how much a friendly voice can help a person who is vilified and abandoned by friends.
To all I say this: if we really are a COMMUNITY then it makes sense for me to reach out to all of you to help us all survive this AS A COMMUNITY, together. There is enough of us, but now we have to pull together if we want to survive and continue the struggle. I won't be able to do it all alone.
Kind regards and thanks,
The Saker
