Readout of the President's Call with Prime Minister Cameron of the United Kingdom
By Newsroom America Feeds at 9 Aug 14:52
The President spoke this morning with UK Prime Minister David Cameron about the crises in Iraq and Ukraine, and the growing Ebola outbreak in West Africa. On Iraq, the two leaders agreed to provide additional, immediate humanitarian assistance, and to develop options that will secure the safety of the civilians on Mount Sinjar. They discussed efforts to counter the threat posed by ISIL against all Iraqis, and agreed on the need for Iraqi political leaders from all factions to put aside their differences and to form an inclusive government capable of pulling the country together.
The President and Prime Minister also discussed the developing situation in Ukraine, and agreed that any Russian intervention in Ukraine, even under purported "humanitarian" auspices, without the formal, express consent and authorization of the Government of Ukraine is unacceptable, violates international law, and will provoke additional consequences. On Gaza, they condemned the resumption of rocket fire and called for an immediate cessation of hostilities leading to a sustainable cease-fire.
President Obama and Prime Minister Cameron reiterated support for Israel's right to self-defense while emphasizing the need for all sides to minimize civilian casualties. Finally, regarding the growing Ebola outbreak, the two leaders welcomed the efforts of the World Health Organization, and vowed to increase the assistance provided by the U.S. and UK governments.

Russia Rejects UK Hammond's Biased Accusations on Ukraine Crisis
TEHRAN (FNA)- Russian embassy in the UK rejected biased accusations of British Foreign Secretary Philip Hammond over the crisis in Ukraine.
“This statement (the Hammond's comments) is unjust, misleading and unacceptable. Russia did not supply and is not supplying weapons to Ukraine," the Russian embassy said in a statement on Saturday, Itar-Tass reported.
“We are surprised that the Government of the United Kingdom denies humanitarian disaster in the Donbas region. Even if the media in UK by some unknown reason choose not to inform public on it, does not mean the appalling humanitarian disaster does not exist. Deliberate silence on that is nothing more than bias and distortion of facts," it added.
“Despite previous international agreements, including provisions of the Geneva Statement of April 17 and the Berlin Declaration of July 2, Kiev continues a large-scale military operation in this region using heavy artillery, armored vehicles, Grad multi-launch missile systems, causing deaths of Ukrainian civilians and mass destruction of civilian infrastructure," the statement further said.
“According to the data of the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, 1367 people have been killed and 4087 people have been injured (of which 2589 were civilians, including 29 children) since the beginning of this operation. In total, there are about 3.9 million civilians in the area of military action. Vital infrastructure, including power supply and water supply, residential buildings are being destroyed. In some populated areas up to 80 percent of houses are destroyed. About 200,000 Ukrainians have no access to drinking water. In the last week, numbers of internally displaced people (112,000 people according to Ukrainian data) and refugees (163,000 according to Russian Federal Migration Service data) have drastically increased," it went on to say.
“The most dramatic situation is in healthcare. About 70 percent of medical personnel were forced to evacuate to safer regions, but those who stayed are in mortal danger, because there is high risk for ambulances to be attacked,” the embassy said in the statement.
“British Foreign Office statement does not represent the facts. It is aimed at misleading the international community and general public by pointing in the wrong direction. Instead, the UK should do something to make Kiev regime stop killing innocent civilians, prevent appalling humanitarian catastrophe and start inclusive real political dialogue with all Ukrainian parties."
In a statement published on the UK government’s official website on August 8, the UK’s foreign secretary said there were no conditions for a humanitarian aid to Ukraine.

What they are doing is backing the US puppet government of Ukraine that's shelling the East Ukraine people, in violation of international agreements -- and EVEN MORE DESPICABLE and beyond belief is that they DENY a humanitarian crisis and deny humanitarian aid to 3.9 million Ukrainians who are without everything we take for granted in an intact city.
There's dead; there's injured; there's few medics; there's 3.9 million people in a war zone; there's displaced; there's destroyed homes; there's destroyed infrastructure; there's 200,000 Ukrainians without drinking water.
And they smile sweetly and *deny* a humanitarian crisis.
That is just sick beyond belief.
On top of that, the press is either silent because it's (a) corporate owned or (b) silenced by the government of two nations who are known to conduct mass surveillance worldwide, conduct kidnappings and torture (rendition) jointly -- two representatives of government that no longer serve the people that voted for them and, instead, clearly serve global corporate interests.
Meanwhile, the average person lives in a police state, Obama and Cameron play global pirates and global cops, alongside unelected intelligence services that aren't even answerable to the government -- they're above it.
So who, exactly, is running US and UK?
