Obama's giveaway: Oil-rich islands to Russia

Exclusive: Joe Miller sounds alarm over deal to put land in hands of Putin's Kremlin

By Joe Miller

The Obama administration, despite the nation’s economic woes, effectively killed the job-producing Keystone Pipeline last month. The Arab Spring is turning the oil production of Libya and other Arab nations over to the Muslim Brotherhood. Iraq is distancing itself from the U.S. And everyone recognizes that Iran, whose crude supplies are critical to the European economy, will do anything it can to frustrate America’s strategic interests. In the face of all of this, Obama insists on cutting back U.S. oil potential with outrageous restrictions.

Part of Obama’s apparent war against U.S. energy independence includes a foreign-aid program that directly threatens my state’s sovereign territory. Obama’s State Department is giving away seven strategic, resource-laden Alaskan islands to the Russians. Yes, to the Putin regime in the Kremlin.

The seven endangered islands in the Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea include one the size of Rhode Island and Delaware combined. The Russians are also to get the tens of thousands of square miles of oil-rich seabeds surrounding the islands. The Department of Interior estimates billions of barrels of oil are at stake.

The State Department has undertaken the giveaway in the guise of a maritime boundary agreement between Alaska and Siberia. Astoundingly, our federal government itself drew the line to put these seven Alaskan islands on the Russian side. But as an executive agreement, it could be reversed with the stroke of a pen by President Obama or Secretary Clinton.

The agreement was negotiated in total secrecy. The state of Alaska was not allowed to participate in the negotiations, nor was the public given any opportunity for comment. This is despite the fact the Alaska Legislature has passed resolutions of opposition – but the State Department doesn’t seem to care.

The imperiled Arctic Ocean islands include Wrangell, Bennett, Jeannette and Henrietta. Wrangell became American in 1881 with the landing of the U.S. Revenue Marine ship Thomas Corwin. The landing party included the famed naturalist John Muir. It is 3,000 square miles in size.

Northwest of Wrangell are the DeLong Islands, named for George Washington DeLong, the captain of USS Jeannette. Also in 1881, he discovered and claimed these three islands for the United States. He named them for the voyage co-sponsor, New York City newspaper publisher James Gordon Bennett. The ship’s crew received a hero’s welcome back in Washington, and Congress awarded them gold medals.

In the Bering Sea at the far west end of the Aleutian chain are Copper Island, Sea Lion Rock and Sea Otter Rock. They were ceded to the U.S. in Seward’s 1867 treaty with Russia.

Now is the time for the Obama administration to stand up for U.S. and Alaskan rights and invaluable resources. The State Department’s maritime agreement is a loser – it gives us nothing in return for giving up Alaska’s sovereign territory and invaluable resources. We won the Cold War and should start acting like it.

The Obama administration must stop the giveaway immediately.

Author’s addendum, Feb. 17, 2012: This is not a new issue. In fact the Bush and Clinton administrations are directly at fault for the same inaction.

A maritime agreement negotiated by the U.S. State Department set the Russian boundary on the other side of the disputed islands, but no treaty has ratified this action. Consequently, it is within the president’s power to stop this giveaway. The Alaska delegation’s failure to put pressure on the administration is inexplicable. State Department Watch, an organization that assisted with this article, has confronted each administration and is currently confronting the Obama administration — and has been met by silence. I’m hoping this piece will help reinvigorate efforts to stop this handover.

Rosatom is the Russian State Atomic Energy Corporation. Rosatom holds 45% of the world's enrichment contracts. JSC Atomredmetzoloto (JSC ARMZ) is a wholly owned subsidiary of Rosatom. Last summer ARMZ merged with Mantra, an Australlian uranium mining company. Uranium One holds 13% of the shares in Mantra. Uranium One is a Canadian uranium mining company and ARMZ holds 51% share interest in the company. Uranium One holds the rights to mine uranium in areas of Wyoming affected by this item and desires to sell the rights to ARMZ.

ARMZ already controls the rights in Wyoming. It already came in the back door. It also appears to control a significant portion of Canadian and Australlian uranium production.

It is amazing. Had it not been for the few reports on the deal (not that anyone will really pay attention to them) the story could have been simply that a Canadian company holds the rights to mine the ore and wants to transfer the rights to one of its partners. No one would have paid a whit of attention to that spin on the situation.

The state legislature in Alaska (still one of our 50 states) voted several times in opposition to THE GIVEAWAY! The islands have billions of barrels of OIL and Obama could let oil companies lease parts of the islands and start drilling for MORE OIL!! Should you suspect Obama was trying to sneak this by...?

Free whitepaper – An Improved Architecture for High-Efficiency, High-Density Data Centers

In a couple of decades, you may be able to board a train at London's St Pancras Station, chug through the Chunnel traveling east, and – eventually – end up at New York City's Grand Central Station, having never disembarked.

Yes, that 65-mile tunnel under the Bering Strait separating Siberia and Alaska, first proposed in 2007, is back on again. And this time its chances of actually being built are strengthened by a 500-mile link from the existing Trans-Siberian line to the Eastern Siberian city of Yakutsk, scheduled for completion in 2013.

The tunnel – twice the length of the English Channel–spanning Chunnel – was given the green light this week at a conference attended by delegates from Russia, the US, UK, and China, held in that very town of 200,000, fondly known as "The Coldest City on Earth".

At the conference, the project was blessed by top Kremlin officials, according to World Architecture News, including Aleksander Levinthal, Russian President Dmitry Medvedev's deputy federal representative for the far east – of Russia, that is.

Well, tunneling west under the Atlantic to link London and New York would be simply silly (source: Mail Online)

The entire rail-and-tunnel project's price tag has risen a bit in the years since it was first proposed – from a projected £32bn in 2007 to £60bn today ($53bn, $99bn), according to World Architecture News.

Actually "first proposed" isn't quite accurate. In 1905 – the year, by the way, of the Potemkin Mutiny – Tsar Nicholas II suggested that such a rail link be built. World War One put a crimp in that dream, as did the 1917 Russian Revolution and Nicholas II's 1918 execution.

This time out, however, the Kremlin appears to be serious – although Alaskans and residents of the other 49 states and Canada's 10 provinces and three territories may need some convincing. The goal of the railway, after all, wouldn't be merely to offer sub-zero tourism, but to open up trade routes through which Siberia's immense cache of raw materials could flow to the US.

But seeing as how the Russian Bear has used – and likely will use again – its trade powers to press its influence on countries to its west, Canadian and US leaders might not be keen on developing a dependency on its neighbor across the Bering Strait.

Still, if all were kept on the up-and-up, the implications of such a rail link
could be substantial. According to Inhabitat, the tunnel's highly efficient rail line could carry 100 million tons of freight per year.

World Architecture News cites unnamed "experts" who are confident that the link could carry 3 per cent of the world's freight, and generate £7bn ($11.5bn) in revenues per year, leading to a quick return on investment.

Of course, who exactly would make that investment, especially in these turgid economic times, is as big if not bigger a stumbling block than the project's political implications.

And the engineering challenge? Tunneling deep under the sea and traversing Big Diomede and Little Diomede Islands in some of the world's most remote and inhospitable territory?

That task will be a walk in the park compared to tunneling into financiers' pockets and through politicians' power plays. ®

Russia to start $10-$12B tunnel project to connect Siberia and Alaska

Shane McGlaun, Aug 24th 2011 Discuss [11]

The Bering Strait is the point where Russia and the US are at their closest.

The Strait runs between Siberia and Alaska and the distance between the two continents is only about 65 miles at the Strait. This was one of the places during the Cold War when tensions between Russia and the US were at their highest that saw the militaries of both countries at the ready in case one or the other attacked.

With the Cold War long behind us, a new plan to connect Russia and the US via a long railway tunnel underneath the waters of the Bering Strait has been green lighted. The project is projected to cost $10 – $12 billion for the 65-mile long tunnel construction alone with the complete project expected to run in the $65 billion range. The tunnel is expected to take about 15 years to complete and when finished it would allow travel by rail from London all the way to New York City.

The thought of one of those high-speed trains zipping you across the world is very interesting. One of the most interesting notions of the tunnel is the commerce it would allow with the ability to transport millions of pounds in goods between Europe and the US each year by rail, which is the cheapest way to transport all sorts of goods today. The tunnel will use wind power and tidal power along the length and that power generated could be shot back to Europe and the US.

Why Russia Needs Alaska

February 27, 2013

In Part one, I detailed how Obama is the right communist at precisely the right time to bring about the demise of this country. Part one revealed how Obama was born and bred to be a communist and we see the evidence of this through his East German Stasi tactics within his daily routine as evidenced by his help in passing the NDAA and other draconian unconstitutional legislation. In Part one, I also detailed how prominent Russian defectors have tried to warn America that Russia will rise up and attack the United States.

It is clear that any Russian attack upon the United States will come through Alaska and I am now of the opinion that Russia will not wait for us to attack Iran before attacking the United States. The following paragraphs will demonstrate why Alaska is so vitally important to the fulfillment of Russia’s communist plans for world domination.

The Heartland Theory

British geographer and military historian, Sir Halford MacKinder, in1904, wrote an article that changed how politicians and military men viewed the world. It was a perception that influenced Hitler to send his troops eastward in an attack upon Russia in 1940. It was also the driving force that led to the underpinnings for superpower foreign policy which guided foreign policy for both sides during the Cold War. The theory that had so influenced nearly three generations of strategists was called simply, the Heartland Theory.

Basically, Mackinder’s Heartland Theory viewed geo-political military history as a struggle between land-based and sea-based powers. Mackinder believed the world had become a “closed” system, with virtually no new lands left for the Europeans powers to discover, to conquer, and to fight over without creating chaos elsewhere. According to the theory the common denominator for world conflict has been reduced to sea powers vs. land-based powers which would subsequently struggle for dominance of the world, and the ultimate victor would be in a position to set up a world empire. The determining factor in this struggle was physical geography; “Man and not nature initiates, but nature in large measure controls”.

Containing Russia Is the Key to World Peace

From Mackinder’s perspective, Soviet Russia had to be contained within the heartland. Mackinder’s believed that whosoever controlled Eurasia, controlled the world, so long as the controller had access to useable ports. The problem for Russia is that they have so few usable ports thus impacting commerce and the movement of men and material in a time of war. So long as Russian could be prevented from being a major sea power, the forces of the United States and Western Europe were safe. However, if Russia should become a sea power in conjunction with its massive land-based power, Russia could rule the world.

Zbigniew Brzezinski confirms the Heartland Theory, in his book, A Geostrategic Framework for the Conduct of the US-Soviet Contest (pp 22-23), n which he echoed the words of Mackinder when he stated that “Whoever controls Eurasia dominates the globe. If the Soviet Union captures the peripheries of this landmass … it would not only win control of vast human, economic and military resources, but also gain access to the geostrategic approaches to the Western Hemisphere – the Atlantic and the Pacific.” For Russia, controlling the peripheries of the landmass means controlling Alaska and having access to its ports. This would make Russia the world’s most preeminent land and sea power and the world would have to pay homage to the new global master.

Stalin’s Secret Plans to Invade Alaska In 1951

In 1999, at a conference held at Yale University, previously-secret Russian documents revealed that Russian Dictator Joseph Stalin had undergone extensive planning in preparation to invade North America as early as 1951. The event was one of a series of programs sponsored by the Washington D.C.-based Cold War International History Project (CWIHP), which monitors new documents pertaining to the Cold War. The Yale conference centered on Stalin’s relationship with the United States.

These documents, from the Cold War, revealed that Stalin had a definitive plan to attack Alaska in 1951-52 and had undergone major military preparations in anticipation of the invasion. Russia has always considered itself to be landlocked and this served as the major motivation for Russia’s planned incursion which would have given Russia access to good sea ports. Stalin subsequently died and the plans were abandoned, at least temporarily.

Suspicious Happenings In Alaska

In light of the evidence, it is abundantly clear that there are clear economic, political and military reasons why the Russians would want to occupy Alaska. My interest in this topic surfaced quite serendipitously as a couple of listeners to my radio program sent me information on the Agenda 21 invasion of small Alaska communities, and oh, by the way, they also reported that they were seeing Russian troops in their respective communities.

The sighting of Russian troops in small Alaskan towns such Ketchikan, Alaska, got my undivided attention.

Ketchikan is the southeastern most city in Alaska. With an estimated population of 8,050. Ketchikan is the fifth-most populous city in the state. Another area where there are civilian sightings of Russian troops is in Sitka, Alaska. The City of Sitka, formerly New Archangel under Russian rule, is located on Baranof Island and the southern half of Chichagof Island in the Alexander Archipelago of the Pacific Ocean. Additionally, one military veteran reports seeing Russian submarines, on a frequent basis, just off the coast. Further, there are civilian reports of Russian vehicles and troops moving through Alaska north of Anchorage. These are only anecdotal accounts and further proof is required in to validate these eyewitness accounts. Yet, there are indeed verifiable, reported media accounts of Russian troops on American soil.

The presence of Russian troops on American soil is very troublesome. America does not need to rely on the anecdotal accounts of Alaskan civilians to be concerned about the presence of Russian troops on American soil. Russian commandos are also “training” at Fort Carson, in Colorado Springs since last spring. Why is this concerning? The United States is about to go to war with Iran for selling its oil to Russia, China and India for gold instead of the Petrodollar. Russia and China have threatened to nuke the United States if it dares to attack Iran. Russia is, and should be considered to be an enemy of the United States.

A Stunning Act of Treason

Obama has given away seven strategic, oil-rich Alaskan islands to the Russians at a time when we could be going to war with Russia. At minimum, the oil, alone, from these Islands should be considered to be a military asset. I remain very concerned that these seven islands in the Arctic Ocean and Bering Sea could also be used as a military staging area from which to invade Alaska and defend its new claims of the mineral rich resources at the North Pole.

The Department of Interior estimates billions of barrels of oil are at stake, related to these seven Islands.

Didn’t Obama promise energy independence. Didn’t this proven communist president promise to help the economy bounce back by lessening our dependence on foreign oil? And despite our ongoing economic depression, Obama killed the Keystone Pipeline a few months ago. Perhaps, very soon, America will not need the Keystone Pipeline because Alaska will not be remaining as a viable member of the United States. To those who think that Obama would never sacrifice Alaska to Russia, then please tell us “conspiracy theorists” why he would give away seven Islands, one as big as Delaware, with great natural resources, to the Russians? This is a case of bold-faced treason plain and simple. Obama and his cabinet should be arrested, tried and sentenced as we would with any traitor. Yet, there is more.

The Giveaway of Alaska

There exists documented facts which support the reasons why Alaska should be placed on high alert.

Russia recently sent four brigades to the Arctic. The Arctic can be used as a staging area for the invasion of the North Pole to protect its recent mineral claims, but more importantly, this area of the Arctic could serve as a base of operations from which to invade Alaska with the help of pre-positioned assets within the state.

In March of 2012, with a microphone left on. Obama made an unguarded comment to Russian leader Dmitry Medvedev to be “more lenient on nuclear issues” because he could be more flexible “after the November election”. Does more flexible mean killing the Keystone Pipeline prior to giving away seven rich Alaskan Islands to the Russians? Does more flexible mean letting the Russians train in Colorado Springs and in Alaska? Does being more flexible mean compromising our defense of Alaska?

More Treason From Obama

Although some journalists have said that they suspect that Obama is preparing to give away Alaska to Russia.

I previously did not see how a sitting president could do such a thing and remain in office. However, if Russia were to militarily seize Alaska, that would provide Obama with a plausible excuse in which he claims America was caught off guard and the danger was unforeseen. Obama could best accomplish this by weakening the defenses of Alaska and the evidence is supportive of this suspicion. The evidence does not support a timetable, however, I would guess that this event may transpire in Obama’s last year in office, or possibly in the lame duck session where he cannot be held accountable. This article will hopefully remove Obama’s ability to excuse away the notion that America lost Alaska because it go caught with its proverbial pants down.

The giving away of seven strategic, oil-rich Islands is a good start to support a claim of treason because Obama is purposely weakening the defense of Alaska. Also, local residents along the Alaskan coast have reported to me that the massive over flights along the coast have all but ceased. The F-22′s have disappeared. The Air Force says the flights have been suspended because of oxygen concerns which are impacting the pilots. Then shouldn’t the flights be replaced by F-16′s? What about national security?These over flights have been a staple of Alaskan defense since the Cold War. If we are close to war with Iran and its ally, Russia, then shouldn’t we beefing up our patrols in Alaska?

Recently the ATF asked for gun registration records in Alaska. Perhaps the Russians need to know, in advance, where the most civilian opposition will come from when they take over Alaska.

Are Plans Being Made For a Post-Russian Takeover of Alaska?

It is now on the record that Putin said that he was going to make his country the greatest country, economically, as he said in print that he is claiming part of Alaska. Adding fuel to the fire, it is now clear that Russia is also establishing plans for an Arctic industrialization. In geopolitical and military terms, it could be an easy to claim to make if the military resistance in Alaska is greatly compromised, and it has been.

The last thing that country should do on a potential front line area is to close military facilities and bases, yet, this is exactly what is happening in Alaska. Obama and the Base Realignment and Closure Commission have been closing bases and/or reducing base operations all through Alaska. It has gotten so bad that the Alaskan Governor hired a lobbyist to prevent military reduction.

Two years ago, a prominent Russia Professor predicted the end of the United States. The professor stated that Alaska would return to the control of Russia and that the United States would be split into six pieces.

John McCain recently said “I think it’s very clear that Russian ambitions are to restore the old Russian Empire.

Not the Soviet Union, but the Russian Empire.”

There is also a tunnel from Russia to Alaska being constructed. Are we funding our own demise with our tax money which is designed to set up Russia’s future? Last summer, Russia challenged west coast detection capabilities of our military by making provocative moves with their submarines inside of our territorial waters.

Also, in a stunning move, Putin banned adoptions of Russian children by American parents. Could it be likely that he is looking out for the Russian adoptees as this is a reaction to what Putin knows is coming?

Conclusion

Should we be closing bases on the potential front lines? Should we be failing to patrol off of our coast? Should we allow the unchallenged sightings of surfaced Russian subs close to the coastline? Any one of these events should be considered to be a serious national security concern. Yet, the media and Obama act as if all is well.

There are a lot of dots on this wall to connect. However, there is one monumental dot to seriously consider. Subsequently, I have some final questions. If Obama is willing to give away seven oil-rich Islands in the area of Alaska, during these tough economic times, then what exactly isn’t he capable of doing to the United States? Is the sacrifice of Alaska so far-fetched in light of these other considerations? Aren’t the apparent Russian plans to seize Alaska part of the fulfillment of the Heartland Theory in which Mother Russia propels itself in the status of the world’s super power by making itself both a land and sea power through the seizure of Alaska?

When someone can provide a plausible set of answers to the questions that I have raised here, then I will continue to sound the alarm that “The Russians are coming, the Russians are coming.”

Putin Builds Naval and Army Base on Wrangel Island – Owned By the US

January 26, 2015

In 2014 Russia unloaded block-modules on Wrangel Island and Cape Schmidt for the construction of military camps. The complex is being erected in the form of a star. (Moscow Times)

In May 1881 US explorers approached Jeannette Island, Wrangel Island and Henrietta Island in the Arctic Ocean and claimed them for the United States.

But according to the Obama Department of State no claim exists today over these US islands. In fact the State Department is conspiring with Russian President Putin to give away Wrangel Island to Russians. Wrangel and its 200 mile exclusive economic zone (EEZ) has billions of barrels of oil/gas reserves and hundreds of millions of pounds of fisheries. It also has a strategic military location for tracking Russian moves in Arctic.

The Coast Guard is a component of the Department of Homeland Security.
It unequivocally states:

“On 12 August 1881, he [William Reynolds] was at the head of the party that landed on what would be later named Wrangel Island and took
possession of the island in the name of the United States.”

The State Department keeps on pumping out false and misleading statements in a supposed “Fact Sheet”. The actual facts are presented at statedepartmentwatch.org.

Now, Vladimir Putin has begun construction of a naval base and army base on Wrangel without so much as a peep from the State Department or President Obama. Something is tragically wrong here.

Background facts here and here.

The State Department has undertaken the giveaway with Putin in the guise of a maritime boundary agreement between Alaska and Siberia. But as an executive agreement, it could be reversed with the stroke of a pen by President Obama or Secretary Kerry.

The agreement was negotiated in total secrecy. The state of Alaska was not allowed to participate in the negotiations, Congress was not notified, nor was the public given any opportunity for comment. The Alaska Legislature has passed resolutions of opposition, and so has California’s legislature.

President Obama and Secretary of State Kerry could stop the giveaway with the stroke of a pen. But they won’t.

Russia to Open Arctic Military Drone Base 420 Miles off the Alaskan Coast

By Damien Sharkov 11/13/14 at 11:43 AM

Russia has announced plans to build a drone base for military reconnaissance in a town just 420 miles off mainland Alaska and just over 300 miles off the US state’s St Lawrence Island, Russia’s state news agency reported on Thursday.

"The command of the eastern military district in charge of the military development of the Arctic zone has moved forward with plans to form an unmanned aerial vehicle division,” Alexandr Gordeev, spokesperson for the district said.

Gordeev explained the base will be stationed around the Russian town of Anadyr, considered the administrative centre of the country’s eastern-most region of Chukotka and currently recruitment is underway for experienced personnel to be sent there.

According to Gordeev beside functioning as an air drone base, the facility will also be equipped with other “mobile units” operated by entirely by professional servicemen as opposed to conscripts, who still make up a large proportion of Russia’s ground forces.

The new base’s key objective will be to provide air reconnaissance for the Russian navy in its eastern waters which directly border U.S. waters.

Since last year Russia has been in an ongoing territorial dispute with Canada over both countries' presence in the Arctic. Following an appeal from Canada to the UN for increased control over the Arctic, which the North American nation currently shares with Russia, the US, Denmark and Norway, Russia responded by strengthening military presence in its regions close to the North Pole.

The stretch of land known as the continental shelf which remains out of the reach of any of the five countries is speculated to be rich in gas and oil.

This latest move is also part of a long-term strategy on Russia’s part of modernising its military with unmanned air vehicles. General major Edward Cherkasov also announced today the armed forces’ Chemical Corps is also developing a drone programme.

Moscow intends to modernise its specialist branch, which deals with chemical, biological and nuclear threats, by updating 70% of its facilities to improve efficiency of operation and long distance reconnaissance, Cherkasov added.

Last month, Russian armed forces presented the latest addition to their drone arsenal in the form of the “weatherproof” Zala 421-08M, developed to be easily carried by land infantry and remain airborne for up to 100 hours at a time.

Larger drones for the Russian military are also under development, with a 30kg version of the Zala which can stay airborne for longer carrying more weight, while earlier this spring Russian state television unveiled a long endurance, army drone with the capability of performing strike missions called the UAV Altius 001.

The announcement comes a day after the Russian air force announced that it plans to fly patrol missions around the world, including sending bomber flights above the Gulf of Mexico. According to NATO, Russian incursions into European airspace have increased by 300% in the last year, with bomber flights spotted as far west as Portugal.

Safety concerns over the military posturing have been raised after a Russian reconnaissance plane with its transponder turned off came within 90 metres of a passenger jet taking off from Copenhagen airport.

Russian drone base near Alaska: Deputy PM makes worrisome remarks

Russia is opening a military drone base only 420 miles from the coast of Alaska and 300 miles from St Lawrence Island, according to a Thursday report on Newsweek. The base will be located at Anadyr in Chukotka, the eastern-most part of Russia. It will also serve as a headquarters for other types of mobile units involved in a new recognizance effort being launched around the world. One example of the new military posturing is the traditional Russian Air Force’s planned bombing runs across the Gulf of Mexico.

It is difficult not to read more into the new base near Alaska in light of comments made last month by Russia’s deputy prime minister, Dmitry Rogozin. IB Times reports that he has referred to their historical right to get back “Russian America” or the “lost colonies” that were sold to the United States 147 years ago. Could Alaska be the next Crimea?

Russia is currently staffing this new base with professionals who will operate the new, amped up military technology, such as the weather-proof Zala 421-08. (It can stay in the air for 100 hours.) Newsweek explained that bigger, more advanced drone technology is in the works. It is sobering to consider that Russian ventures into European airspace increased at 300% over the last year while all the Russian aggression has occurred in the Ukraine.

Reality TV in the United States has become obsessed with life in Alaska, dubbing it the “last frontier.” The lure of a different kind of freedom calls from the endless miles of the Alaskan bush. Alaska is as wide as the entire United States and as big as California, Texas and Montana combined. Could it be that Russia is literally eyeing the land as a potential annexation as they did Crimea? Maybe they consider Alaska to have “always been an unalienable part of Russia.”

Is Alaska Next? Russia's Deputy PM Dmitry Rogozin Calls for Annexation of 'Russian America'

Russia's Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin(Reuters)

Russia's deputy prime minister Dmitry Rogozin has argued that Moscow has a right to get back Alaska from the United States 147 years after it sold "Russian America" to Washington.

In a foreword to the revisionist book Alaska Betrayed and Sold: The History of a Palace Conspiracy by Ivan Mironov, Rogozin acknowledges the historical right of Russia for "the return of lost colonies", the Moscow Times reports.

Supporting the author's view that the Alaska sale was a betrayal of Russia's power status, Rogozin argues that the transfer of Russian America was marred by "outright lies and falsifications".

"Russia giving up its colonial possessions makes it necessary to look in a different way at our diplomacy in the era of Gorbachev and Yeltsin, trading away pieces of the Soviet Empire," he wrote.

The Russian empire offered to sell Alaska to the US a first time in 1859 but it was not until 30 March 1867 that secretary of state William Seward agreed to a proposal of $7.2m (£4.5m). President Andrew Johnson signed the treaty on 28 May and it was transferred on 18 October of the same year.

Critics called the move "Seward's Folly", but were silenced after a major gold deposit was discovered in the Yukon in 1896. It became a state in 1959.

Rogozin's remarks about the historical right of Russia to take Alaska back are especially sinister because they echo similar comments by Putin in the wake of Russia's annexation of the Crimean peninsula. In a referendum that the US and the EU said violated the Ukrainian constitution and international law, 97% of voters in Crimea, part of Russia until 1954, voted for secession from Ukraine.

In a special address to a joint session of the Russian parliament that gathered to accept the Republic of Crimea as part of the Russian Federation, Putin said that Crimea "has always been an inalienable part of Russia". The Black Sea peninsula was "saturated with our common history", he added.

He said that Russia was "robbed of Crimea", which was handed over "like a sack of potatoes" after the breakup of the Soviet Union.

"Millions of Russians went to sleep in one country, and woke up in another," Putin said. "What seemed incredible became a reality - the USSR fell apart."

Putin has repeatedly stated his intention to protect ethnic Russians living in Ukrainian regions due to the strong cultural connection between them and "Mother Russia". In August he referred to the restive eastern regions of Ukraine as "Novorossiya" or New Russia.

Approximately 21% of Ukraine's population is Russian and it has deep cultural and historical links with Russia. The Russian ambassador to Ukraine has even stated that "Ukrainians and Russians are a single nation."

Since he was reelected president in 2012, Putin has appealed to the traditional nationalist and religious base of his electorate, calling for a return for Russia among the superpowers.

Russia Sends Nuclear Submarine Troops on Arctic Exercise

Filed Under: World, NATO, Russia, North Pole

Nuclear units in the Russian navy have engaged in exercises in the international waters underneath the North Pole, a move which analysts believe is a thinly veiled response to yesterday’s news that NATO is to reinforce its eastern European border with Russia.

“In particular we focused on hazard and threat detection, but also on missile launching and navigation manoeuvres, ice reconnaissance, submerging and emerging from ice, using torpedoes to undermine ice and many other issues,” North Fleet captain Vadim Serga said.

Among the units which took part in the exercises were the crews of several Borei-class ballistic missile nuclear submarines, an upgrade of Russia’s old Delta 3, Delta 4 and Typhoon nuclear vessels.

The Russian captain also added that the Fleet’s crew were given theoretical as well as practical exercises, which were led by vice admiral Anatoly Shevchenko, whose nuclear submarine has ventured underneath the North Pole ice several times before.

“Under his guidance nuclear submarine crews learned about previous voyages under the Arctic, studying issues of tactical maneuvering of weapons,” Serga added.
According to the North Fleet spokesperson the aims of today’s mission was so that younger crewmen to become better versed in Arctic warfare.

However, Elbridge Colby an expert in nuclear force and intelligence at the Center for a New American Security (CNAS), believes the timing of the snap exercise is effectively a “threatening reminder” to NATO of Russia’s nuclear capabilities.

“The Russians have been deliberately upping the public side of their nuclear exercises recently for strategic purposes. They have both been increasing the number of exercises they are performing and they have also been making them more public,” Colby says.

“On one side this is definitely intended as a show of national strength to the Russian public but it is also designed to demonstrate Russia’s strength and nuclear options to NATO and the West.”

While Colby says Russia has not made an explicit threat, he believes the country intends to “heighten fear” in the West. “Over the last year the number of exercises has definitely increased. Russia’s ‘nuclear signaling’ has upped quite a bit in the last year or so and we can consider those exercises as specific acts to make it part of the general public’s mental picture in NATO member states that Russia is a dangerous opponent,” Colby adds.

The Arctic and North Pole is a highly disputed territory due to the huge oil deposits located in the area. Apart from Russia, five other nations currently have claims over the territory, all of whom are NATO members: the U.S., Canada, Norway, Iceland and Denmark.

While the alliance did not comment on Russia’s recent activities, a spokesperson at the Norwegian armed forces played down Russia’s move.

“We are well aware of the fact that both nuclear capable, and conventional Russian submarines on a routine basis operate both in the waters surrounding the icecap and underneath the northern ice cap,” the spokesperson said.

When asked if the Norwegian armed forces were aware of this particular Russian exercise in the arctic, the spokesperson refused to comment, but insisted “It is not a cause of concern”.

Russia brought all of its armed forces, stationed in territories adjacent to the North Pole, under one command last year and is currently in the process of building a military drone base 420 miles off the coast of Alaska.

RUSSIA STRENGTHENING ITS ARCTIC FRONTIERS

The first Arctic motorized infantry brigade in Russia has started preparations for combat service in the Arctic. This structure was created by the President of the Russian Federation Vladimir Putin a year ago. The new fighting force has been designed to protect the interests of Russia in the Arctic Region.

To engage in combat operations with snow up to the waist, to deploy modern technology in 40 degrees of frost and just survive in the icy wilderness - this is what the fighters from the first Arctic motorized rifle brigade are being taught. It took the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation just one year to fulfill the president's decree. And here in the village of Alakurtti - near the Finnish border and deep inside the Arctic Circle – a new military settlement has been formed with personnel who have been given the task of safeguarding and conducting training sessions for the protection of the Arctic borders of Russia. And it is of great importance that a separate military district has been created, considers Konstantin Sivkov, 1st Vice President of the Academy of Geopolitical Problems.

“Creation of a separate Russian Arctic troop force was dictated by the fact that the Arctic theater of operations has features radically distinguishing it from any other theaters. These forces are unique because of an extremely low operational capacity, severe physical and geographical conditions associated with low temperatures and ice. Furthermore, the theater of operations is basically island-based, because in this region, only the Russian coast forms the continental part. Therefore, the naval fleet, heavy icebreakers and relevant units of Army and Marine Corps are of immense importance here, capable of, according to their configuration of arms and training of personnel, conducting combat operations in these conditions.”

The Arctic motorized infantry brigade is a part of the Joint Strategic Command (JSC) “Sever” (North). The Russian Northern Fleet is also part of this Command. In course of the year 2015, air defence forces will also become a part of JSC.

When Russia began to build barracks 50 kilometers from the Finnish border, on the site, by the way, of a former Soviet military base, the Western countries started panicking, alleging Russia that it is pursuing an aggressive policy and advancing its troops to the west and north. Against this background, the arctic military exercises conducted by the Scandinavian countries (Sweden, Norway and Finland) almost went unnoticed, including in the disputed shelf areas with Russia. And few shared Moscow’s concern of an increased presence of the US nuclear submarine fleet in the Barents Sea, which is responsible for a rapid deployment in the Arctic Region, notes Konstantin Sivkov, 1st Vice President of the Academy of Geopolitical Problems.

“Other countries are also in the process of building up their military forces in the Arctic region. The US is stepping up its activities in submarine waters in the region; it has even infiltrated by conducting visits inside our territorial waters. There, the US Air Force conducts proactive and mainly reconnaissance flights. In Alaska, a joint missile defence force is being deployed by the US and Canada. There, a powerful strike force consisting of tactical aircrafts is being deployed.”

All of this, of course, is because of the rich deposits of natural resources, offered by the Arctic Region. At a time when everyone wants to grab a piece of the pie, Russia is inclined to strengthen its borders and be prepared to defend its interests in the Arctic. According to the military doctrine of the Russian Federation, the formation of groups of military forces in the Arctic is intended to ensure the safety of the socio-economic development of Russia in the Arctic Region and is of a defensive and deterrent nature.

I mean, I have a job to do, I do it. Does it worry me? No. Someone at work accused me of not having a "sense of urgency". (That's what brought the discussion up in the first place). The folks at work are all good people, we all do our jobs and we do it to the best of our ability.

But when the upper management shifts the focus in mid-stream it just gets difficult to give a shit. When your priority is to accomplish the mission, but someone up the food chain comes in and says that "It's more important to count some widgets today, than it is to launch a missile" something has been lost in translation.

And of course, you might be counting the widgets, but you still gotta launch that missile. Otherwise you're in trouble. So is everyone else. But... who cares, right?

Our government has NO sense of urgency, except to get rid of guns, tax the "rich", and give the terrorists what they want. See, that's what is important to politicians, not dealing with the little problems of the little people, in a little known part of the USA, where there's NO exceptional ism...

Russian Writer: It’s Strange Putin hasn’t Yet Asked for Alaska Back’ But There’s Still Time

Saturday, October 8, 2016

Paul Goble

Staunton, October 8 – Many people have commented on the fact that Vladimir Putin accompanied his announcement that he was suspending a plutonium cooperation agreement with the United States with an ultimatum containing a list of demands that Washington could not possibly be expected to fulfill.

But that list, which included the lifting of all sanctions, the total disarmament of Eastern Europe “and – the icing on the cake – compensation for [Russia’s] losses,” is in fact the key to understanding what is going on, according to Pavel Shipilin, a commentator for the Utro news agency (utro.ru/articles/2016/10/07/1300245.shtml).

What is going on, he continues, is a fundamental shift in the relationship between Russia and the West, from one in which the two sides were at least willing to negotiate to one in which Moscow is going to defend its interests come what may given the increasing weakness displayed by the US, a weakness he says was on display as the West reacted to Putin’s words.

Putin said as much in making his announcement, Shipilin adds, and says that given this shift, “it is strange that Putin did not require that the US return Alaska,” although the commentator quickly points out that “the global conflict is far from finished so that ahead of us may come not a few surprises,” including perhaps that demand as well.

The Kremlin leader, Shipilin says, specifically said that he had taken the decision on the plutonium issue because of “the radical change of circumstances” and “the threat to stability as a result of unfriendly actions.” And the place to see where that is happening is in Syria.

According to the Utro commentator, on September 20, “three days after the attack by the Americans on Syrian positions,” Russian forces responded by hitting a command post of the Western coalition in Deir-es-Zore, killing 30 officers from the American, Israeli, British, Turkish, Saudi and Qatar intelligence services.

“That is,” Shipilin says, “we completely consciously attacked the military personnel of NATO and its allies, inflicting quite serious losses.” But despite this, the Americans said nothing about this at the time, and neither did Moscow. There is an explanation for these silences and it explains a lot, he continues.

What it reflects is that on September 17, according to the Utro commentator, NATO coalition forces bombed and killed Russian military personnel during their attack on Syrian government positions. If that is the case, then, the killing of 30 Western intelligence officers was “an act of revenge which the US was forced to swallow and leave without an answer.”

This course of events, Shipilin says, led Putin to conclude that there was nothing more to talk about and to issue an ultimatum which the US could not possibly fulfill. And these actions demonstrate something else, and that is this: “NATO in the eyes of all lost this local battle but one important for American prestige. The halo of being Great Power No. 1 has disappeared over the US.”

Obviously, Shipilin is only one voice; and his conclusions are not necessarily those of the Kremlin. But to the extent that there are at least some in the upper reaches of the Russian state who think this way, the situation is far more volatile and dangerous than even pessimists in the West have suggested.

When leaders talk like this, they aren’t just engaged in brinksmanship: they are ready to go to war. And consequently, no one should ignore the Shipilins of Russia, including their hyperbolic comments about demanding that the West return Alaska to Russia sometime in the future.

What is Putin Up To With His “Massive” Military Bases in the Arctic?

November 8, 2015 Comments Off on What is Putin Up To With HIs “Massive” Military Base in the Arctic? 5,740 Views

What Is Putin Up To with His “Massive” Military Base in the Arctic?

News of Putin fills the world press headlines since the Russian strongman, now a political superstar, took his strong stand in Syria.

The latest warnings to North America are of “imperialistic” Putin’s ambitions to taunt Canada and the U.S. by building a “massive” military bases or bases in the Arctic. Russia is soon to announce the completion of its Arctic military base on Kotelny Island, the longest island in the Novosibirsk Islands off the eastern Siberian coast, RT reported today.

The near completion of the base is breaking news this month, but the dispute for the Arctic region has been ongoing for decades. After some lull at the end of the Cold War and with Russia trying to regroup, the next two decades were relatively quiet, at least as to the bombastic bickering back and forth between those laying claim to the region. By 2010, rhetoric as well as activity by all of the parties laying claim to the region were becoming heated.

2010

Russian and Canadian prime ministers, Stephen Harper and Vladimir Putin, visited the Arctic desert in the summer of 2010 almost simultaneously, Pravda reported. The head of the Canadian government stated that the geopolitical importance of the Arctic had become extremely relevant to Canada. In order to preserve its northern territory strong and free, Canada needs to solve border disputes with its neighbors, Harper added.

The closer Northern American neighbor, Canada, was the most agitated. Canadian Foreign Affairs Minister Lawrence Cannon visited Russia on September 16, 2010.

“The Arctic is part of us. Was. Is. And always will be,” Cannon said in Moscow, noting that the importance of the Arctic and Canada’s interests in the North “have never been greater.” At the time, Denmark and the U.S. were also laying claims in the Arctic and were announcing plans of their intention to build in the region.

At that time, Russian military expert Pavel Zolotarev downplayed the dispute, pointing out that it was too early to speak about aggravation of the international state of affairs in the Arctic region. “The current dispute is about the territories whose economic development is not going to be a matter of the near future because they are still covered with ice,” with Pravda reporting.

Fast forward to 2013.

2013

Troops that had been stationed in observatory posts there were withdrawn after the Cold War ended. Plans were publicized that Putin was to rebuild the abandoned base in 2013 when Russian engineers were sent into the area. The goal was for Russian troops to be deployed in the Arctic by 2018, after the construction of six airfields was to be complete in 2016–17.

In 2013, Putin announced plans to reopen a military base in the New Siberian Islands, an Arctic archipelago north of Yakutia. His motive was clear—to secure control of the strategic region, sputnik news.com reported.

“Our forces left the area in 1993, and in the meantime it has become a very important point in the Arctic Ocean, a new stage in the development of the Northern Sea Route,” Putin told a meeting of Defense Ministry officials as a Russian naval task force arrived.

Russia “will not only reinstate the military base in this area, but will also restore the airfield and allow for collaborative work with representatives of the Emergency Situations Ministry, hydrologists and climate experts to ensure security and efficient operation of the Northern Sea Route,” he said.

“A naval task force from the Northern Fleet has begun major exercises around the New Siberian Islands. We arrived there, or, more accurately, we have returned there forever,” Deputy Defense Minister Arkady Bakhin was reported as saying in Sputnik news in September 2013.

The task force included the heavy nuclear-powered guided-missile cruiser Pyotr Veliky [Peter the Great] in the lead, and the large amphibious assault ships Olenegorsky Gornyak and Kondopoga and a variety of other support vessels.

“We are not keeping this a secret: we have practically built a base on the Novosibirsk Islands, the Island of Kotelny,” said Shoigu at the time, with RT reporting. “This is a big military base; there was no such base there in the Soviet period.”

2014

News of Putin’s flurry of activity in the Arctic continued to be updated by Moscow regarding the progress of the construction of the base. In September, when the U.S. and its coalition were all wrapped up in the offensive in Syria against ISIS, Moscow Times reported:

“Set on restoring the once formidable Soviet military presence in the highly contested and resource-rich Arctic, the Russian military has begun building new military bases in the region,” a Defense Ministry spokesperson said.

“Block-modules [pre-fabricated structures] have been unloaded on Wrangel Island and Cape Schmidt for the construction of military camps. The complex is being erected in the form of a star,” Colonel Alexander Gordeyev, a spokesperson for the Eastern Military District, was quoted by RIA Novosti.

“The Russian Defense Ministry has big plans for Kotelny. A new pier will be soon built to dock medium-size vessels, which would make supply runs that much cheaper during the summer navigation. The runway will be extended and strengthened to serve heavier aircraft, including heavy transport planes and strategic bombers.

Manning all the new installations will require additional personnel, and a new city for the troops and their families is now being built several kilometers from the temporary camp,” RT reported, also in September.

“The conditions are certainly harsh, but we are coping. We have housing and equipment, so we’ll survive just fine,” Yuri Popov, an engineer with the 99th told RT. (See video)

The locations are deep inside the Arctic Circle in the Chukchi Sea, close to Alaska.

In addition to the region being important for geo-political strategic purposes, it’s about oil and other resources. The Northern Sea Route is the connection between Europe and Asia as well as the strategic importance of the Arctic’s proximity to North America.

“Russia is vying for control of the region’s oil, gas and rare metals with the other ‘polar nations’ — Canada, Denmark, Norway and the U.S. — leading many observers to point at the region as one of the world’s most volatile flashpoints,” Moscow Times reported.

2015

May 2015: The development of the military towns’ infrastructure on Cape Schmidt and Wrangel Island in the Arctic zone of Russia’s Eastern Military District will be completed in 2015, the military district spokesman Alexander Gordeyev said, with Tass.ru reporting.

“The second phase of military facility construction has started in the military camps of the Arctic zone, during which it is planned to complete the infrastructure development on Cape Schmidt and Wrangel Island – equipping of the combat duty positions and life support systems will be completed. It is also planned to restore the airfield on Cape Schmidt,” the spokesman said.

Full circle: In the last few days, the worldwide press has been preoccupied with the announcement that the base is about to be unveiled.

NEXT: Where is the U.S. in all of this disputing over the Arctic?

Is Russia set to spark WW3? Putin builds huge ARCTIC military bases just 300 miles from US

VLADIMIR PUTIN'S imperialist ambitions were laid bare today with an announcement that the secretive Russian war machine is planning to build three new military bases in the Arctic - just 300 miles from the US mainland.

By Tom Batchelor

PUBLISHED: 02:00, Tue, Oct 27, 2015 | UPDATED: 18:18, Tue, Oct 27, 2015

President Vladimir Putin's popularity has gone through the roof since he started bombing ISIS

Moscow also revealed blueprints for a new army base on the disputed Kurile islands - some of which are situated less than 20 miles from Japan.
Mr Putin is already flexing his military muscles in Syria with air and sea bases and a bombing campaign that has decimated ISIS strongholds.

Russian expansionism has also seen the Crimean peninsula invaded and annexed.

But, in a significant ramping up of Russia's military reach, Mr Putin hopes to taunt US and Japanese officials with outposts in the Arctic and Pacific.

The plans mean Moscow will have troops, warplanes and military vehicles stationed in all four corners of the Asian continent.

This is a really large base that was never seen during the Soviet times, and it has modern equipment, all of the needed equipment for these boundaries
Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu

It will be seen by both Washington and Beijing as a direct challenge to military supremacy in the region.

In the Pacific, a new Russian base on the Kurile islands is likely to worsen already frayed relations with Tokyo which lays claim to the Southern Kuriles, known in Japan as the Northern Territories.

Russia seized the islands from Japan at the end of World War Two and the dispute is so acrimonious that Moscow and Tokyo have still not signed a formal peace treaty after the war.

In the Arctic, Russia is building or plans to build a series of new military bases on Wrangel Island, Kotelny Island and at Cape Schmidt, Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu confirmed.

He said Russia planned to "completely finish the creation and arming of the entire Arctic grouping" by 2018.

Mr Shoigu added: "We're not hiding this from anyone, we have practically finished creating the base in the Novosibirsk Archipelago, on the island of Kotelny.
"This is a really large base that was never seen during the Soviet times, and it has modern equipment, all of the needed equipment for these boundaries."

Russia plans to finish the bases by 2018

Mr Putin has promised not to militarise the Arctic, but officials have made it clear that Russia will take steps to ensure it remains well defended in the region.

Cape Schmidt, or Mys Shmidta as the nearest town is known in Russian, boasts a population of just a few hundred.

But crucially, it is just 320 miles from Point Hope in Alaska.

Moscow hopes placing a military base so close to American shores would give Russia the edge in any conflict with the US.

Wrangel Island, another proposed military base, is a Unesco World Heritage Site and hosts a nature reserve.

It is also thought to have been the last place on earth where mammoths survived.

Mr Putin has promised not to militarise the Arctic

Russia has conducted a number of military drills in the Arctic this year, and Moscow plans to create a network of naval facilities in the region for submarines and warships as part of the country's military strategy through 2020.

Russia already operates military bases across eastern Europe and central Asia, including in Georgia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and Vietnam.

Moscow also uses a naval base in Syria and an air base in Latakia, where 600 Russian marines provide security.
It comes as Mr Putin's approval rating in Russia has shot up to almost 90 per cent, boosted by the decisive bombing campaign of ISIS and anti-Syrian government rebels.

Russia's air force says it has flown over 700 sorties against more than 690 targets in Syria since September 30, a campaign to which state TV has given blanket coverage.

Before the strikes, polls showed Russians were wary about the risks of Kremlin involvement in the Middle East.

But a poll conducted earlier this month showed that 72 per cent had a broadly positive opinion of the Russian air campaign.

Mr Putin, whose third term as president lasts until 2018, has enjoyed a rating of over 80 per cent for more than a year and a half.

After Soviet collapse, Russia completely abandoned Arctic infrastructure until recently

Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu announced that Russia is continuing the construction of military infrastructure in the Arctic.

The first stage of construction was completed last year on Wrangel Island, Alexandra Land, and Cape Schmidt.

The infrastructure is used for a wide range of activities including accommodation of troops and equipment designed for operating in the Arctic zone.

Shoigu also commented on the joint Russian-Chinese military exercise, “Naval interaction – 2015”, conducted in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean Sea last month.

He noted that this practice will continue in the future.

The joint combat training and naval exercises involved ten Russian and Chinese warships. It was led by Russia’s Black Sea fleet.

The Minister praised the exercises, saying they demonstrated a high level of cooperation between the two countries, noting that all training objectives were met with excellent results.

When All Out War Happens With Russia...
Alaska: Prepare to Defend Yourselves From Russian Invasion

Soon this will be a familiar sight in our communities only their helmets will be blue.

Hillary, or Obama will soon be taking us to war. The war will start in Syria with accompanying conflict in space in order to knock out each others surveillance and communications capabilities. However, the real danger to America is in Alaska. Obama and his friends have been weakening Alaskan defenses since he came to power.

The Globalist Take Down Plan of Amerika

America will be taken down according to the following scenario: (1) A false flag, more than likely a scenario resulting in economic collapse and the destruction of the dollar. This is in line with what Dr. Walker Todd previously stated on the radio; (2) The implementation of martial law, perhaps involving the use of foreign troops; and (3) All out conflict.

Dr. Walker Todd

Dr. Walker Todd, former 20 year consultant to the Federal Reserve.

Dr. Todd is not to be taken lightly as he was an economic consultant with 20 years of experience at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York and the Federal Reseve Bank of Cleveland. He is also a member of the Cato Institute‘s new Center for Monetary Financial Alternatives as one of its Adjunct Scholars. Given his background, his expressed opinions should be given very serious consideration.

If Dr. Todd’s prediction is accurate, this fits in with what other sources are saying is coming in the very near future. It has always been my position that a false flag even would be used as a pretext to invoke martial law. Martial law would then be used as the excuse to begin gun confiscation. Gun confiscation will be used disarm American citizens prior to subjugating the country by using foreign mercenaries in what could be labeled as a “Red Dawn” scenario.

We could be approaching that time as Paul Martin’s sources are telling him that all of the agencies are preparing for a massive attack upon the northeast as I write these words.

Alaska: Russia’s Portal of Entry Into the United States

There are clear economic, political and military reasons why the Russians would want to occupy Alaska. My interest in this topic surfaced quite serendipitously as a couple of listeners to my radio program sent me information on the Agenda 21 invasion of small Alaska communities, and oh, by the way, they also reported that they were seeing Russian troops in their respective communities. The adjacent maps reveals the towns where Russian troops, or there is a large contingency of Russian civilians in Alaska.

The sighting of Russian troops in small Alaskan towns such Ketchikan, Alaska, got my undivided attention. Ketchikan is the southeastern most city in Alaska. With an estimated population of 8,050. Ketchikan is the fifth-most populous city in the state. Another area where there are civilian sightings of Russian troops is in Sitka, Alaska. The City of Sitka, formerly, New Archangel under Russian rule, is located on Baranof Island and the southern half of Chichagof Island in the Alexander Archipelago of the Pacific Ocean. Additionally, one military veteran reports seeing Russian submarines, on a frequent basis, just off the coast. Further, there are civilian reports of Russian vehicles and troops moving through Alaska north of Anchorage. Because of the multiplicity of the reports, these are indeed verifiable, reported accounts of Russian troops on American soil.

Wasilla

There are additional reports of Russians in and around the Alaskan town of Wasilla.

Dear Dave Hodges

I am a former Navy submarine operations officer. I formerly had family who lived in a sleepy Alaskan village of Wasilla. Formerly, there were repeated sightings in Wasilla and uniformed Russian soldiers up until about 2013. They are still there, but they do not come into town any longer according to those I know. Wasilla is quite obviusly a staging area for the invasion and occupation of Anchorage and Juneau.

My former CO told me that we have suspended most of our submarine patrols of the Alaskan coastline. Sightings of Russian submarines by fishing vessels are now common. I have followed your website for three years. You used to write about how the coastine of Western Alaska no longer has American planes patrolling as was the case going back to the early days of the cold war. Our feeling in the Navy was that Obama had turned Alaska into a defenseless area that will serve as a forward base of operations when World War III begins. You have been saying that you expect World War III to begin in Syria. I am not so sure. I see a lot of evidence that tells me that it will start in Alaska. Simply put Dave, we can no longer defend Alaska as we have been compromised from within and from without. We are the verge of being invaded from Alaska all the way down into Canada and eventually the Northwest. In preparation for seizing Alaska, the Russians have practiced posing as highway road crews. Local law enforcement have been told to ignore these crews. I have a friend who works in a law enforcement capacity in the area. These fake road crews will allow them to disrupt communications and seize vital bridges and other assets in order to support an advancing force.

You have written about Red Dawn. I believe Alaska is the launching point. When the shooting starts, Alaska will be seized by the Russians almost overnight.
Keep writing Dave but know that most Americans do not give 2 shits about what is happening. Your role is to get people to think about preparation. We cannot win this war because we have been betrayed by our leaders.

Eastern Arctic Just Outside of Alaska

I have learned, from multiple sources that the Russians have moved at least one, and probably two divisions of troops into the Eastern Arctic, just outside of Alaska.

This dovetails with another Russian military/political actions in recent times as we know that the Russians have established a very large presence in the Arctic, just above Alaska.

Russian troops are amassing just East of Alaska and to the North in the Southern Arctic.

I have also learned that Russians, in large numbers have crossed over into Alaska. Many are in civilian clothes and many are being housed in several closed Alaskan military bases and abandoned motels. I am told that Russian troops are being maintained in the following two closed Alaskan bases.

Site Name	City	Type	NPL Status	BRAC Round Closure	Agency
Adak Naval Air Station	Adak	NPL/BRAC	Final	4	US Navy
USARMY Fort Greely	Fort Greely	BRAC	Pending	4	US Army

Further, it is not a secret that some of these forces have worked with DHS on abduction exercises in which hypothetical members of the Independent Media and uncooperative and influential politicians (i.e. just like the movie Amerika) are snatched by troops offloaded from low-flying helicopters in the middle of the night. These drills were part of Jade Helm. These drills have been coordinated in multiple locations which leads one to believe that when this scenario is acted upon, these abductions will take place on the same night.

More Supporting Documentation

I have repeatedly stressed the importance of seven Islands that Obama gave away to Russia. Please note their location. Two of the Islands are ideal for launching an invasion of Alaska. The other five Islands are serving to block access to the American navy in and around the Arctic interests of Russia.

Multiple reports from Alaskan fisherman have observed that Russian troops are occupying US/Alaska’s Wrangell Island in the Arctic which was one of the seven Islands given to Russia by Obama. This is clearly a staging area.

Interestingly, Google posted the following pictures and labeled them as “Russian military troops sighted in Alaska”

Maybe someone should be asking Google where they got these photos of what Google labels “Russian troops in Alaska”. If one does not believe that Obama is capable of facilitating this kind of treason, perhaps Obama would care to explain what happened when In March of 2012, with a microphone left on.

Obama made an unguarded comment to Russian leader Dmitry Medvedev to be “more lenient on nuclear issues” because he could be more flexible “after the November election (2012)”. Does more flexible mean killing the Keystone Pipeline prior to giving away seven rich Alaskan Islands to the Russians?

Obama did indeed do that. Does more flexible mean letting the Russians train in Colorado Springs and in Alaska?

Obama did indeed do that too. Does being more flexible mean compromising our defense of Alaska? This is absolutely the case, as Alaska is being prepared to be conquered.

Former Soviet Union Defectors Have Warned the US

Anatoliy Golitsyn, a high-ranking KGB defector who fled to the United States in order to warn Americans about the secret Russian plan to attack the United States.

Golitsyn is generally considered to be among the first and most revealing on the subject of the secret Russian plans to attack. Having authored the The Perestroika Deception in which Golitsyn wrote about the deceitful intent behind the Leninist strategy in which the present-day Communists are actively pursuing as they fake American style democratization efforts in Russia.

According to Golitsyn, the short-term strategic objective of the Russians is to achieve a technological convergence with the West solely on Russian terms and mostly through a series of one-sided disarmament agreements. According to Golitsyn, after the United States military is eliminated as a strategic threat to Russia, the long-range strategic Russian plan is to pursue Lenin’s goal of replacing nation states with collectivist model of regional governments as a stepping stone to global governance.

In order to achieve their final goal, Golitsyn states that Russia, after lulling America to sleep, will join with China in order to attack the United States from both the outside and inside as he detailed that …the Soviets and the Chinese will be officially reconciled and enact a “scissors strategy” in which China will attack the US through the southern border and Russia through northern border by way of Alaska.

As the reader can clearly see, Obama is the catalyst in making these long-range communist plans come to fruition. Has Obama already signed Amerika’s surrender papers?

Conclusion

Alaskans, you would be wise to prepare to defend yourselves. The sides have been drawn and you have the misfortune of being in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The shooting will likely begin in Syria, but the real damage will be done in Alaska.

There is one thing I neglected to mention. Nearly all of our combat troops are stationed outside of the country.

In other words, we have turned off our security alarm, given away our handguns, left our doors unlocked and the windows open.

It is merely a matter of time until the big bad bear from the north, comes down our collective chimneys and through our unlocked doors and windows. For today, Alaskans, prepare to defend yourselves.

The Russians Are Coming, Says Ex-Navy Leader: World War 3 Will Start With Alaska Invasion

October 15, 2016

Norman Byrd

At least one harbinger of doom is now saying that when the Russians invade the United States, they will start World War 3 by breaching American sovereignty via Alaska, according to a former military official. In what reads like a World War 3 conspiracy theory, this scenario suggests that President Barack Obama has left the United States’ northernmost state militarily defenseless against an imminent Russian exploitative attack.

The Daily Star reported this week that a high-ranking former U.S. Navy official has claimed to have evidence that a Russian invasion of the United States is imminent and will begin in, of all places, the small village of Wasilla, Alaska. (For those who may have forgotten, Wasilla is the home of former Alaska governor, former Republican vice presidential nominee, and former Fox News contributor Sarah Palin.) Russian submarines will apparently secure the Alaskan coastline, exploiting the fact, according to the former Navy officer, that the area is virtually unprotected from hostile and aggressive invaders.

Wasilla is located just off the coast of the Knik Arm, a body of water east of Cook Inlet, which opens out westward into the Gulf of Alaska. It is just over 43 miles northeast of Anchorage, the state’s largest city. Somewhat contradictory to the unprotected claim, Joint Base Elmendorf-Richardson (Air Force-Army) is in Anchorage. It is the largest military base in Alaska.

According to the official, who offered the information on condition of anonymity, Wasilla will become the jump-off for a more protracted invasion of North America. “Our feeling in the Navy was that Obama had turned Alaska into a defenseless area that will serve as a forward base of operations when World War III begins,” he said.

“We are the verge of being invaded from Alaska all the way down into Canada and eventually the Northwest.”

The same unnamed source told the Daily Star that there were Russians disguised as “highway road crews” working in Alaska already, preparing the way for a full-scale invasion force. The crews were in place to “disrupt communications and seize vital bridges” when war eventually arrives.

It is as yet unclear if the source actually has privileged information or has some kind of agenda against the Obama administration to make such claims. Corroboration — or a denial — has yet to come from other military sources that are willing to go on the record.

Still, the Daily Star noted that other sources, also unnamed, have claimed that there are Russians in “civilian clothing” that have been quietly moving into Alaska, living in abandoned motels and military bases in readiness for the coming invasion.

In a report in late August, the Daily Star reported on the Russian Federation’s decision to move 50 nuclear weapons to eastern Russia, just over 85 miles from the Alaska shoreline.

According to Russia’s defence minister, Sergei Shoigu, who confirmed the creation of a “coastal defence division” in writing for the online newspaper Svobodnaya Pressa, “what we’re talking about is the creation of a serious military force just a stone’s throw away from the United States.”

There hasn’t been a military unit so close to Alaska since Mikhail Gorbachev, the former general secretary of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union (and later president of the Soviet Union), disbanded all eastern Russian military units in 1985.

As has been recounted by the Inquisitr, the re-militarization of Russia over the past decade has been cause for alarm in Washington and in European capitals. An unprecedented number of military drills and exercises have taken place in recent years and Moscow is well into modernizing its nuclear weapons arsenal (prompting the same from the United States) as well. All these military maneuverings (which includes a bolstering of defenses on its western borders and with Ukraine), in addition to the hardline posturing and aggressive annexation of parts of Georgia and the Ukraine’s Crimean region, have many experts worrying that Russia just might be moving toward a war footing with the West.

Russia, for its part, maintains that it is only answering American and Western (NATO) aggressiveness.

To push matters to a level almost equal to that of the Cold War, Russia last week recommitted, as reported by the Inquisitr, nuclear bombers to patrol just outside American airspace for the first time since the early 1990s.

As noted, the anonymous claims reads like a World War 3 conspiracy theory or fabrication. But fabricated or not, the scenario has a built-in joke that will have Sarah Palin seeing the Russians coming, from her house.

WW3: 'Get ready for Russian invasion' Americans in Alaska told to prep for IMMINENT ATTACK

By Rachel O'Donoghue / Published 16th October 2016

RESIDENTS of the US state of Alaska – just 50 miles from the Russia border – are being warned they may be invaded by Vladimir Putin’s troops.

GET READY: Alaska residents told to prepare for Russian invasion

An unnamed former senior military officer has apparently claimed all evidence shows Russian submarines will enter the US via the small village of Wasilla, in Alaska.

According to the ex-Navy brass, the stretch of coastline is totally unprotected and would be ideal to stage an attack from.

He said: “Our feeling in the Navy was that Obama had turned Alaska into a defenseless area that will serve as a forward base of operations when World War III begins.

“We are the verge of being invaded from Alaska all the way down into Canada and eventually the Northwest.”

SUBS: Claims Russian submarines will stealthily launch an attack on the States

“We are the verge of being invaded from Alaska all the way down into Canada and eventually the Northwest”

He has also claimed Russians have been practicing posing as “highway road crews”, which is in preparation for a full-scale war so they can “disrupt communications and seize vital bridges”.

Other sources claim Russians in “civilian clothing” have been quietly moving into Alaska and living in abandoned motels and military bases.

In August, Putin ordered a specialist "coastal defence division" to be set up.

This has seen nukes moved to shore up control of Russia’s eastern cost, stretching from the Arctic in the north to the Primorye Territory in the south.

So weapons of mass destruction are literally miles away from the States and primed to attack.

Russian defence analyst Sergei Ishchenko said of the move: "It's obvious that this is not just ordinary news, not least because what we're talking about is the creation of a serious military force just a stone's throw away from the United States.

"Only the Bering Strait will separate the Russian coastal defense division from Alaska.

"At its narrowest point, that's only 86 km away."

This comes amid claims the US DEFCON system has been upgraded and intelligence officials saying the White House is looking to launch a stealth cyber attack on Russia.

And just today, it emerged Russian warships were spotted just a mile away from the UK coast.

World War 3 News: Alaska A Russian Target? Locals Warned of Invasion

As World War 3 news reaches an all-time high on web searches across the globe, paranoia continues to intensify, as an insider allegedly confirms a possible attack on the United States starting in their most vulnerable area – Alaska. On October 15, 2016, an anonymous source claiming to be a former senior military officer from the US Navy said that Russia was preparing to assault North America using a detailed plan of attack starting their assault in Wasilla, Alaska.

Although Wasilla is more known as the former base of operations of US politician Sarah Palin, the unnamed source is now placing attention into the northern borders for an entirely more dangerous reason. According to his account, Obama had left Alaska too unprotected. As a result, Russian forces have been scoping the area and have been deploying stealth units in increments.

World War 3 News: Russia invading from the Northwest?

US, Russia and other countries will meet Saturday for new talks on Syrian ceasefire, officials say. https://t.co/DA0qNmI5eh
— CNN Breaking News (@cnnbrk) October 12, 2016

The report tells of a conspiracy surrounding an apparently imminent invasion from Russia, starting at the Northwest. The ex-military official, who chose to remain nameless in exchange for his insider information, also claimed that Russian intel has been posing as “highway road crews” and civilians who have quietly moved into abandoned bases and motels, as a means of preparation for conflict with the US.

They are placing themselves in strategic locations around Wasilla so that they in the event of all the World War 3 news reaching its peak, they are able to disrupt communications with the White House.

As tensions between the US and Russia run thin, theories about when and how the Kremlin will invade the United States have multiplied exponentially. Though no other credible news source has picked up the anonymous information, meaning this could be part of one big conspiracy theory to feed public distrust against the Russian military, a possible strike against the US isn’t out of the question.

White House officials are currently attempting to prove that Moscow is somehow responsible for a cyber-crime attack which was meant to damage the upcoming US Presidential elections. When CNN chief correspondent Christiane Amanpour interviewed Russian foreign minister Sergie Lavrov regarding the claims, he said that it was nothing more than anti-Russian hysteria.

On the other side of the border, Vladimir Putin has also been working on increasing his armaments against the United States. He has recently refused to honor a treaty made with the US back in 2000, which would have dumped certain nuclear materials in an effort to rid the world of dangerous weaponry. Then, he held nationwide military drills that prepared his citizens for any upcoming warfare with the West.

As World War 3 news rises into a frightening degree of reality, only time will tell if the US and Russia can amend their relations with peaceful negotiation.
