04, 2014 Infamy: Why is our media
lying? What we're witnessing right now is breathtaking, unprecedented and
absurd. When was the last time we saw such a disconnect
between what our news media tells us and what actually occurred? Or more with maps: http://worldtraining.net/Ukraine.htm
In
Odessa, in Ukraine, fascists from the group "Right Sector" burned a
building with peaceful pro-Russian protesters inside. The proof is in the post below this one. Here are the hard truths of the
situation:
1. American neocons engineered a
coup in Ukraine.
2. America installed a Nazi regime. America is allied with
modern-day fascists.
3. Putin -- a man I never thought I would praise -- is
completely innocent in this business.

Look at the
video above. These Nazi thugs, the guys we are supporting, are chanting praise
of Stepan Bandera,
the fascist leader of Ukraine during World War II who murdered many Jews and
Poles. (In the photo to your left, Bandera's image is being
carried through the streets by modern Nazi skinheads.) Bandera was so
vile he disgusted even Hitler. (Thanks to a reader
for sending me the link.) So how
is NBC playing this? Get out your vomit bucket and have it nearby before you
attempt to read this... Pro-Russian Activists Attack Police Station in
Odessa, Prisoners Freed
Anything there about that burning building and the people who were fried
(and, if they tried to escape through a window, shot)? Well, not in the
headline. But if we scroll down, we do get this...and seriously, I hope you
have your vomit bucket close at hand... Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk, speaking in Odessa, which is on the western,
Black Sea stretch of Ukraine's coast, accused Russia of engineering Friday's
clashes there that led to the deaths of more than 40 pro-Russian activists in a
blazing building. RUSSIA
engineered that?
Where's the evidence? Our media analysts usually scoff at
anything that reeks of conspiracy theory. But when Putin is the target,
suddenly any paranoid accusation, however wacky, becomes permissible. How did Russia create those
crowds chanting Bandera's name? The perps were thugs
wearing Right Sector insignia! You can easily find their images on the net, if
you look. (Example to your right.) Now check out this Slate piece by Lucian Kim. (He's a former
"Moscow correspndent" -- and we know the history there.)
For Vladimir Putin, mimicking his opponents is a key
element to keeping power. At home the Russian president oversees a democracy
with sham elections and a loyal parliamentary opposition made up of stuffed
shirts. His foreign policy can be best described as Òcondemn and copy.Ó Since
2007, when he assailed U.S. hegemony in a Munich speech, Putin has been raging
against the West—and then committing his version of the sins heÕs just
condemned. The article goes
on and on like that. Basically, Kim is trying to convince us that any
Ukrainians who don't want to be ruled by Nazi thugs must be pawns of Putin.
Does Kim give us any proof that Putin is responsible the protests against the
puppets we installed in Kiev? Well, you could say that he gives us proof by
assertion. Kim can't
seem to understand why anyone in Ukraine would launch protests against the brownshirts who brought down a
democratically-elected leader and installed a neocon
puppet. (Victoria Nuland's infamous
telephone call proves that "Yats" was picked by American right-wingers.)
The confusion is understandable given
that there is no repression of Russians or their language to begin with. Gosh. Why would anyone object to
be being ruled by a bunch of Nazified
Bandera-worshippers? From Kim's point of view, the whole thing simply makes no
sense! And what about
all those people who were burned? Apparently, they sacrificed their lives for a
cause that, according to Kim, didn't really matter to them. Kim wants you to
think that the protestors are protesting just for the hell of it, that they
really have no valid complaints, that they really
don't care about an American-engineered coup that put fascism in power. So why did so many people risk
their lives by going out into the streets to fight the fascists? Obviously,
Putin has somehow hypnotized them. ...... Now let's talk about those
Right Sector thugs who burned all of those people alive. According to most
American journalists, the Right Sector is really just a wonderful, sweet bunch
of patriots. The NYT is still telling readers that Russia
"invaded" Crimea, even though everyone else knows that the
Crimeans voted overwhelmingly to split from Ukraine
and join Russia, thereby restoring an historical norm. The Crimeans
speak Russian, and they (sensibly) want no part of the madness in Kiev. (They
also don't want any interruption in the flow of gas.) For the truth of what's happening now, go to Global Research.
Those of us who grew up in the west after WWII believed
that supporting anything resembling fascism was unthinkable. The moral degeneration of the
U.S. state and its Nato allies since that time is
almost beyond belief. So too is the degeneration of the Washington Post, New
York Times, and other corporate media which have helped to delude large numbers
of Americans into believing that Russia, which has killed or attacked no one,
is somehow the aggressor in Ukraine. In reality, and on the ground, the U.S. government –
with no mandate from the American people - is supporting a fascist/oligarch
unelected Ukrainian ÔgovernmentÕ installed in a coup spear-headed by two openly
fascist parties, Svoboda and Right sector. Now, in actions highly reminiscent of Hitler and his
brown shirts, Right-sector oriented hooligans aided by military forces have
just beaten with chains and baseball bats, and burned to death in the Trade
Unions building of Odessa 31 civilians who were engaged in a peaceful
occupation in their own city – civilians who are opposed to, and do not
recognize, the new oligarch/fascist ÔgovernmentÕ. Yesterday, the day that U.S.-state-supported fascists beat
civilians with chains and clubs and burned them to death in a trade union hall
in the Ukraine – this also is a day that will live in infamy. Our media lied incessantly about the
Nicaraguan contras. Our media lied us into the
invasion of Iraq. Now this. I've never seen this level of media
manipulation before. Of course, we expect biased coverage from Fox News and similar
outlets -- but the manipulators are particularly effective when they infiltrate
centrist and liberal news organs. When will we stop buying the lies? Here read Zizek on
the Ukraine violence. ttp://simongros.com/text/articles/slavoj-zizek/barbarism-with-a-human-face/
We already know the CIA was buying journalists 60 years
ago. There's nothing new
here, except the scale on which it's being practiced. With near infinite funds
from Afghanistan heroin, you can buy anything you want. If there's a shortfall,
the Federal Reserve can create trillions with a wave of the wand. The sociopaths who have seized
control of our shadow government, which is the only real government we have
now, are determined to foment a war over Ukraine, or at least generate problems
for the Russian government. The hired prostitutes we refer to
as "journalists" will lie their way all the way to WWIII. RT reports
that German sources (Bild.de) claim that FBI and CIA
agents are active in the Ukraine to support the "government" of the
Israeli banker, Yatsenyuk, which has been installed
by the State Dept and the CIA. Don't expect to read this from US sources. Insiders perspectives on the
