Russian member of parliament, Vyacheslav Nikonov, says Putin’s speech was the ‘central element’ of the UN assembly. Putin had such great ideas to resolve international problems that the U.S. needed something major to take away the spotlight.
Russian Official: NASA Announced Mars Water Finding To Interrupt Putin’s UN Speech
“Putin’s speech was tough and concise. He formulated the basic principles of international relations without matching the United States and its allies. He offered concrete steps for resolving major international problems,” said Nikonov, a member of the Kremlin-backed United Russia political party and a grandson of Vyacheslav Molotov, Soviet dictator Joseph Stalin’s foreign minister.
“This means that they had to interrupt Putin’s speech with something very serious,” he added.
Putin’s idea for an improved world is basically let dictators rule. Everybody knows better than to interrupt a dictator’s speech.

In the run-up to Putin’s speech, Russian media covered the preparations with a bated breath. One channel ran a countdown to the speech on its screen all day and another promised “a speech that will change the world.” ….
While Obama was halfway through his speech, the Rossiya 1 channel switched the feed from the U.N. headquarters to a live broadcast of Putin’s arrival in New York.
Good grief, Putin’s got a gun, GUN GUN GUN. Now Obama, has a girl’s bicycle. Oh boyeeee. 🙁
Charge should play okay with the Russian people, because (from Dec. 2014 Foreign Policy magazine):
“…Islamists in Chechnya upstage Russian President Vladimir Putin with a bold attack in Grozny. Just hours before Putin delivered his state-of-the-nation address, Islamist militants laid siege to the Chechen capital, a battle that ended with at least 20 people dead. The timing of the attack suggests it was meant to embarrass Putin before his biggest speech of the year…”
And Obama did say that NASA’s purpose was to make Muslims feel good about themselves. U.S. gov’t hasn’t been welcoming Chechnya Muslims has it? That association, regardless how weak or wrong, doesn’t sit well with Russians.
Oh, good grief – waah, waah, waah!
Where’s silhouette of Preazy staring at a giant Mars : “Like water on Mars the President is barley there.”
This particular whine is the sort I would have expected coming out of an Obamallero’s mouth. How absurd. Alors!
