US pathetic threat to Russia

| |
As I am scanning my 16 screens for the next forex trade I come across a slightly outdated, but yet relevant new stories about our favorite fugitive; Edward Snowden. Yes, he is still stuck at Moscow’s Sheremetyevo airport in the transit zone which Russia regards as neutral territory. He has not been seen in public since June 23rd, but he did have a meeting with human rights activists.

Hi lawyer Anatoly Kucherena stated that Snowden has applied for temporary asylum until the logistics of his future travel have been resolved. The US revoked his passport, but Bolivia, Nicaragua and Venezuela have offered permanent asylum to Snowden. The problem is that none of the countries can be reached via direct flight and Snowden is afraid that the US will force allies to restrict a plane suspected of carrying Snowden from entering their airspace as was the case with the Presidential plane of Bolivia.

Another fear is that a plane suspected with Snowden on board will be diverted and forced to land at an ally air force base where he can be detained. Kucherena did not rule out that Snowden may apply for Russian citizenship in order to enjoy protection there and to be honest that seems to be his best option as it does not take much to apprehend Snowden or worse in the three Latin American countries which offered him refuge and without causing too much damage.

In Russia he would be safe and secure and could leave a free life. Plenty of Russians have offered him money and shelter, one woman offered to adopt him and another ex-Russian spy offered to marry him. There you go Snowden, being married to a very hot and sexy former Russian spy and enjoying life in a great country with her; take it or take it as it is a no brainer.

Should Snowden be granted a temporary asylum he would be free to work and travel across Russia for the next 12 months and Kucherena stated that Snowden applied for temporary asylum rather than political asylum as the process is much faster. Russian President Vladimir Putin, one of the smartest politicians of modern time, said that Snowden could remain in Russia if he would stop leaking confidential information which is damaging to the US.

The US wants Snowden to be returned and face espionage charges which the Department of State calls a fair and just trial. I am not sure too many are convinced and Snowden fears of torture and death are not too far-fetched.  He did what he did was right and exposed internal as well as external spy programs which the NSA installed and executed which invaded not only the privacy of its citizens, but also of its closest allies.

The US is desperate and now barks up the wrong tree while threatening that Russia would risk long-term problems with the US unless Russia does as the US begs and complies. This empty and moronic threat made me laugh as I am looking over the AUDNZD H1 chart and scan my next entry point. It is funny how the weak threatens the strong and thinks they can achieve something with their threat. I am sure every intelligent person in Russia finds the threat equally amusing.

Those who scratch their forehead right now and look like a complete motard wondering what motard stands for, here are a few pointers which may guide you to the amusement destination humans with an IQ above 75 frequently enjoy:

  • Russia together with China are the new global super-powers and you can’t mess with this one-two punch which together with Brazil, India and South Africa form what is collectively known as BRICS. BRICS sticks together and forms a strong and powerful foundation with plenty of economic, financial and military power to take out any nation which threatens their borders. Furthermore India and South Africa are members of the Commonwealth of Nations and the head of the 54 independent countries is Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II which will stick closer to her agenda than to support a former colony which rebelled against the British Empire.
  • The US has been collapsing in all important areas; economy, finance, military. Allies have abandoned the US, but it appears some EU members, at least four, still nurture ties with the collapsing American empire and decided to assist the sinking ship. Eventually they will pay for their pathetic stupidity as no bad deed goes unpunished in the political space. Countries take note and the day will come when those countries need something at which point they will be politely bend over for an anal response.
  • The US owes Russia billions of dollars and therefore is in no position to threaten or negotiate anything. Should Russia feel offended enough they will get BRICS to sell US Treasuries in the open market and stop financing the US basic needs which would result in total catastrophe and collapse of most basic services across the US which is what Washington is aware of and therefore all they can do it bitch about the situation; a barking dog does not bite and the US barks quite a bit and pisses on the wrong tree.
