Jan.27/2017: Just the facts of the matter at hand!

 In my opinion, the Greeks that needed to know  were aware, had advance knowledge, of the plot to overthrow the Turkish government. Additionally it was not a coincidence or a one off that  the coup plotters headed to Greece in the stolen helicopter, escorted by the Greek military.

After all the fuss about “bad” Russia/Putin & the Panama Papers.....Now that no one is paying attention any longer... Canada's snow washing for tax cheats is seeing the light of day.  Of course, Canada’s snowy white image (innocence) has nothing to do with reality.  As you will read Mossack Fonseca isn’t the only company promoting Canada as a tax haven.

Bloomberg viewIt’s an interesting read, so, do read it all at the link above. While the Russians may wish to maintain the status quo, concerning Cyprus, it is not likely, in my opinion, they want open warfare in Cyprus. This would not serve their interests. I can understand where the status quo suits them just fine. This is tied to Egypt, Turkey, NATO, the EU and more.Of course, share some thoughts
