“The four scientists sent into the district to prospect for iron ore were told about the pilots’ sighting, and it perplexed and worried them. ‘It’s less dangerous,’ the writer Vasily Peskov notes of this part of the taiga, ‘to run across a wild animal than a stranger,’ and rather than wait at their own temporary base, 10 miles away, the scientists decided to investigate. Led by a geologist named Galina Pismenskaya, they ‘chose a fine day and put gifts in our packs for our prospective friends’—though, just to be sure, she recalled, ‘I did check the pistol that hung at my side.’
“As the intruders scrambled up the mountain, heading for the spot pinpointed by their pilots, they began to come across signs of human activity: a rough path, a staff, a log laid across a stream, and finally a small shed filled with birch-bark containers of cut-up dried potatoes. Then, Pismenskaya said,
“beside a stream there was a dwelling. Blackened by time and rain, the hut was piled up on all sides with taiga rubbish—bark, poles, planks. If it hadn’t been for a window the size of my backpack pocket, it would have been hard to believe that people lived there. But they did, no doubt about it…. Our arrival had been noticed, as we could see.
“The low door creaked, and the figure of a very old man emerged into the light of day, straight out of a fairy tale. Barefoot. Wearing a patched and repatched shirt made of sacking. He wore trousers of the same material, also in patches, and had an uncombed beard. His hair was disheveled. He looked frightened and was very attentive…. We had to say something, so I began: ‘Greetings, grandfather! We’ve come to visit!’
“The old man did not reply immediately…. Finally, we heard a soft, uncertain voice: ‘Well, since you have traveled this far, you might as well come in.’”

I came across the following music video from Cairokee on the Egypt subReddit. I don’t speak Arabic so I had no idea what the lyricist was saying, but I found the tone to be extremely powerful and really wanted to know what the message was, so I asked if anyone could provide a translation.
I received a personal message with a draft translation which I greatly appreciated. As well, another user was kind enough to post a more detailed translation to the subReddit.
Below you will find the translation of the lyrics and the music video. I believe the message will resonate not just with those struggling in the Arab world to dispose of their oligarchs and dictators, but with everyone across the globe struggling for freedom, social justice, equality, dignity, human rights, and with those who oppose the system.

“The path is very dark, so if you and I won’t burn then who will light the way?” - Che Guevara
The truth is as clear as daylight
But forbidden to approach or touch
The word of truth in our time is suicide
Saying it would be going against the flow
I have more than thousand examples
Malcolm X, Gandhi and Che Guevara
They died because they felt the suffering of the people
They wanted justice to be the foundation
Try calling for freedom or social justice
Try saying equality or dignity for the people
Try calling for human rights or oppose the system
Don’t ever "think" by thinking you cross a red line
The best you can do is get some bread
To keep quite not to stay alive.
And if you are determined to walk against the flow of the people
The answer will be a bullet
Some people are dancing and others are dying, and the loudest voice in the party is the voice of silence
Some people are dancing and others are dying, and the loudest voice in the party is the voice of silence
Ignorance is bad and is the creation of the regimes
A weapon that works across all eras
Give the people a fish they will eat for a day
Teach them how to fish they will eat everyday
Knowledge is light and the light doesn't pass by us
We are living in the dark and the dark can hide a lot
Killing, imprisonment, blood, corruption and injustice
Raping any dream we are living in a prison
With time everything passes
Bread-winning is hard and tends to rust minds
Fear has occupied the hearts of people
And kill the feelings within them
O our parents this is our future
Don’t take times side against us
Your generation has always been silent
And has never spoke out
Now you've come to teach and tutor?
It is now time to pass the torch
Some people are dancing and others are dying, and the loudest voice in the party is the voice of silence
Some people are dancing and others are dying, and the loudest voice in the party is the voice of silence
It’s been years since I met anyone that still believes in the official government story of the lone gunman. For obvious reasons of course, since you would have to be completely obtuse to hold onto such simplistic perceptions of the world - not to mention to having no understanding of physics at all.
For those that continue to encounter such people, the only advice I have is to sit down with your loved ones, or those that you would like to educate, and have them read or watch a little Bill Hicks.
With all the above information at our disposal, for some reason - maybe because it’s beyond people’s reality tunnel - there are those that still adamantly believe in the official government version of what transpired on 9/11 as if it was beyond scrutiny, very unfortunate considering what is at stake.
“On September 11th 2001, BBC World reported at 4:57pm Eastern Time that the Salomon Brothers Building (more commonly known as WTC7 or World Trade Building 7) had collapsed. This even made the 5pm EST headlines, what is bizarre is that the building did not actually collapse until 5:20pm EST.
“9/11 was unusual enough, without BBC World being able to foretell the destiny of WTC 7. What is even stranger, is that the women reporter is telling the world that the building had collapsed when you can see it in the background over her left shoulder. Then at 5:15pm EST, just five minutes before the building did actually collapse, her live connection from New York to London mysteriously fails.
“So the question is, on 9/11 how did the BBC learn that WTC7 collapsed 23 minutes before it actually did.”
BBC Reports Collapse of WTC Building 7 Early-- TWICE
Aside for Building 7 being the only skyscraper in history to collapsed in on itself due to fire, the BBC’s deviation from the script - or should I say, them screwing the timing of the delivery and reporting the collapse of the building earlier than scheduled - should be raising alarm bells for everyone.
Below you will find three videos that provide some further information about this topic. They are well worth the watch.

State Dept. Psaki grilled over leaked ' F**k the EU ' tape - Russia leaked it
It has become obvious that what's going on in Ukraine is an extension of the cold war as the U.S. and the EU try and peddle a modified version of the Armenia-ultimatum to their people. Sound complicated? It's not really. What's going on in Ukraine is an economic proxy war that has turned sour.
The trade deal that the EU has offered the Ukraine is garbage. To find out how bad it is all we have to do is look at why Armenia ended up telling the EU to shove it when they tried to jam the same deal down their throats.
“The apparently smooth progress towards a final deal came to a shuddering halt in early September, when President Serzh Sargsyan met his Russian counterpart Vladimir Putin and announced plans to join another economic bloc, the Moscow-led Customs Union. Membership of the grouping, which currently includes Russia, Belarus and Kazakstan, would require Armenia to adopt a different set of trade tariffs and agreements which EU officials say are not compatible with the Association Agreement.
“Despite this, President Sargsyan says Customs Union membership would not conflict with the EU accord, which he argues could be uncoupled from the DCFTA.
“‘Armenia is ready even now to sign an Association Agreement with the EU,’ Sargsyan said in a question-and-answer session after addressing the Parliamentary Assembly of the Council of Europe on October 2. ‘Sadly, our partners in the European Commission have said there is a clear contradiction between the Customs Union and the agreement on a free trade zone.… We have suggested that we could sign just the Association Agreement, which mainly covers political reforms.’….
“‘There has recently been a lot of talk about the civilisational choice facing members of the Eastern Partnership initiative. We have always stated that we don’t believe it’s right to view the issue in those terms.’”
What the EU wanted Armenia to do is equivalent to telling someone that they can come over and play at your house as long as they are willing to permanently tell the rest of their family to fuck off! Insanity!
As someone who is aware of the history of its people and the region, knows the game at play, and those involved, I can honestly tell you that anyone that is arrogant enough to tell Armenians to screw over Russians for a dangling carrot is one dumb MOFO. After all, everyone knows that what the EU offers hasn’t really worked out too well for the citizens of some of its periphery members, such as those in Greece, Spain, Cyprus, Ireland, or Portugal.
The main thing we need to know about what's going on in Ukraine is that it’s based on our indefinite growth based economy - the EU and the U.S. needing to grow to maintain their crony capitalistic system because if they don't the bubbles will pop. This is what the Ukraine deal is about, a self-consuming economic model that must devour everything in its path to maintain power.
As for John McCain, death, destruction, and corruption follow him everywhere, so if we're wise, we wouldn't allow this shill to make any more speeches on other people’s soil but instead arrest him for treason in the United States.
“We watched today what is going on from the Eastern Europe. Europe parliamentarians are coming to Kiev demonstrating and even camping. Polish parliamentarians are camping in Kiev in Maidan, main square of Kiev city.
“And so yesterday Russian TV showed John McCain arrival to Kiev and he brought with him some luggage, diplomatic luggage, eight big bags: one of them only was set for ... [his] diplomatic car and the seven other big bags were placed in Ukrainian cars and they said that it is money. Huge amount of money brought to spread, to support opposition.
“I asked where is international law? How is it possible to intervene in such ugly way in the internal disturbed situation in Ukraine?
“Money, money and all this was spread [among opposition] and made based on huge amounts...
“So I think that not Russian intervention but European, American intervention, direct appearance in demonstrations, appearance among oppositions, take and flow, making some speeches, encouraging for revolution.
“That I can say, I as a former diplomatic, my job, I cannot even imagine such kind of behaviors are suitable for current international law...”

If you would like to know what’s really going on in the Ukraine than the following three videos will do a good job explaining it. In the first, James Corbett gives us a short rundown of what’s taking place (the segment of interest takes place between 1:30 to 5:20). In the second, Amy Goodman hosts an interview and debate between two guests: “Stephen Cohen, professor emeritus of Russian studies and politics at New York University and Princeton University; and Anton Shekhovtsov, a Ukrainian citizen and University College London researcher who has just returned from observing the protests in Kiev.” And in the third, a chaotic debate on CrossTalk between three guests: John Laughland, Tony Halpin, and Dmitry Babich.
