Russia Sends Four Warships To Australia NE Coastline In Advance Of G20 Meeting<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Whether you’re a Russophile or a Russophobe, you gotta love Russian President Vladimir Putin’s latest response to Australia Prime Minister’s \u201cshirtfront\u201d<\/em>\u00a0comment.<\/p>\n

Russia has sent four warships, including the flagship of their Pacific Fleet, to an area just outside of Australian territorial waters. \u00a0What is especially significant about this location is that Brisbane, site of the G20 conference, is well within firing range of both the flagship and the accompanying destroyer.<\/p>\n

With that single naval maneuver Putin handily outdid his Australian opponent. \u00a0The word is that London bookmakers favored Putin’s superior geopolitical judo 10 to 1 as he went up against Abbott’s amateur boxing. \u00a0Abbott has had considerably more to lose throughout this fight since he bore the added pressure of winning as the host country.<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Tony Abbott Parrots Obama’s Baseless Accusations<\/strong><\/p>\n

After Abbott falsely accused Russia of having a part in the shooting down of MH17 over the Ukraine, he said he looked forward to shirt-fronting Putin when he met with him at the upcoming G20 conference. The Guardian reported on Abbott’s diplomatic disaster as follows:<\/p>\n

Tony Abbott says he will \u201cshirtfront\u201d Vladimir Putin over the downing of MH17, claiming his conversation with the Russian president at the G20 would be \u201cthe toughest conversation of all\u201d.<\/p>\n

The prime minister resorted to the Australian Rules football term for roughing up an opponent to describe his approach to Putin\u2019s presence in the country next month.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am going to shirtfront Mr Putin \u2013 you bet I am \u2013 I am going to be saying to Mr Putin Australians were murdered, they were murdered by Russian backed rebels,\u201dAbbott said.[1]<\/em>\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Why a \u2018hosting\u2019\u00a0Prime Minister would commit such a gaffe, particularly using a patently false accusation against a visiting G20 president, is as bizarre as it is unprecedented. \u00a0The following article contains indisputable evidence that MH17 was shot down by two Ukrainian Government fighter jets, not by the eastern Ukraine rebels. \u00a0In fact the rebels did not possess the weapon technology necessary to take down the passenger jet at that time.<\/p>\n

Evidence Is Now Conclusive: Two Ukrainian Government Fighter-Jets Shot Down Malaysian Airlines MH17<\/a><\/p>\n

The deliberate shoot-down of MH17 stands as the greatest war crime since the Ukraine conflict began. \u00a0It has been determined by experts who have evaluated all aspects of this premeditated mass murder, that it was perpetrated with the explicit purpose of blaming Russia. \u00a0In this way the tide of worldwide opinion would be turned against the rebels and Russia, whose primary interest was to protect the Russian speakers of the eastern Ukraine.<\/p>\n

G8 Quickly Morphed Back Into The ‘New & Impoved’ G7<\/strong>
\nNot only did all the Western Powers quickly rally around imposing sanctions against Russia after the shoot-down, Russia was removed from the G8 government forum. The West has continued to demonize Putin, as it falsely blames Russia for the cold-blooded murder of 298 passengers and crew on MH17.<\/p>\n

Such a crime against humanity, which was committed by the Ukraine with US backing, is conduct deserving of severe retribution. \u00a0And yet the world watches Tony Abbott being used by his masters in Washington to attempt to humiliate Vladimir Putin. \u00a0Truly, the modern world has never witnessed such immature and immoral leadership.<\/p>\n

PM Abbott Convenes A Kangaroo Court In The Land Down Under<\/strong><\/p>\n

In light of the repercussions that this single crime against innocent civilians has had, it is now clear that the community of nations must act. \u00a0Not to lay blame with those parties who are guilty of both the MH17 crime and the coverup is to allow the travesty of Abbott’s Australian kangaroo court to continue. \u00a0PM Abbott has not relented for one moment in the prosecution of President Putin in what has become a very public (read internet-wide) and disparaging kangaroo court.<\/p>\n

Not only has Abbott distinguished himself as the most inept and childish prime minister in Australian history, he has thoroughly embarrassed Australia on the world stage. \u00a0Perhaps the voters will recall this amateur as a sign of their displeasure with his totally incompetent and shockingly unethical leadership.<\/p>\n
