The pen is mightier than the sword - A picture is worth a thousand words
The
WTI Crude Oil market broke higher during the course of the session on
Tuesday, clearing the $50 level. By closing at the top of the range, it
looks like the market should continue to go higher. After all, the $50
level is of course a large, round, psychologically significant barrier.
Also, is an area that we have been fighting with for some time, and with
that being the case I believe that it’s a sign we will continue to go
much higher.
Finland...
the thought of Vladimir Putin doesn't quite come to mind at the first
mention of it. But, a small Finnish autonomy, the Aland islands is
living under the vast shadow of the Kremlin.
The trip begins at a
central bus station. Although it may sound warm and exotic the actual
climate here is damp and cold. Aland - nearly seven thousand rocky
islands, a region that encompasses an archipelago at the entrance of the
Gulf of Bothnia in the Baltic Sea. Just like Ukraine's Crimea, Aland is
an autonomous region and although nowadays it is the only
Swedish-speaking region in Finland... Aland islands were under the rule
of the Russian Empire. And seemingly, Russia's interest in the Finnish
autonomy has not faded yet.
So what's it like for the Finns to
live right beside a neighbour that stole a part of their land? From a
Ukrainian standpoint that sounds way-too-familiar.
The Kremlin
grip on the neighbouring ex-Soviet states is evident, but it's not that
easy to spot in Finland, at least not with a naked eye.
The
phenomena of cross-border shopping. It is a part of the Finland/Russia

In
2014, Islamic State militants swept into Western Iraq's Anbar Province,
overrunning Iraqi security forces, enslaving minorities, and causing
thousands to flee for their lives.
The jihadist group captured
Iraq’s largest city, Mosul, and the cities of Ramadi and Fallujah, where
hundreds of US troops died fighting the Islamic State’s predecessor.
Now,
two years later, the Iraqi security forces, with help from
Iranian-supported Shiite militias and US military advisors and
warplanes, are fighting to take back towns and cities in Anbar, one
battle at a time.
But it’s a difficult task: Anbar has been the
crucible of Iraq’s insurgency, and is the country’s Sunni heartland —
long marginalized by and hostile to the Shiite-led government in
Baghdad.

city of Hit, where they encountered ambushes, sniper fire, and tried to

Iraqi civilians.
