Poisoning Of Ukrainians/Roman Abramovich: False-Flag?

Posted on by

NY Post:

Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich and several Ukrainian officials were apparently poisoned while negotiating an end to Moscow’s invasion at a meeting where they were only served water and chocolate, according to reports Monday.

Abramovich, who accepted a Ukrainian request to help deescalate the warfare, and at least two senior members involved in negotiations suffered from peeling skin on their faces and hands, constant and painful tearing, and red eyes following a meeting in Kyiv earlier this month, the Wall Street Journal reported.

The billionaire owner of the British soccer club Chelsea FC‘s eyesight also “completely disappeared” for several hours, while a member of the Ukrainian delegation, the parliamentarian Rustem Umerov, became partially blind, two sources told the Financial Times.

We are supposed to believe from this that Vladimir Putin poisoned Abramovich and did it so incompetently that not only did Abramovich and the other Ukrainian negotiators survive, but they figured out they were poisoned and they know from where the poison came, because there were only two items at the meal.

Does anyone think that a colonel of the KGB, who came up from a humble background in the dangerous, tough world of post-Soviet Russian politics to become one of the most powerful men in the world is that stupid?

Besides, what is not mentioned in the piece is telling. We are told that Zelensky invited Abramovich to participate in the negotiations, which reports as early as the end of February confirm,   but we are not told that Putin is also close to Abramovich. He certainly approved of his mediation.

And Putin would seem to have everything to gain from Abramovich’s help and nothing to gain from poisoning him. Indeed, he has everything to lose by a false step,  which accounts for  his restraint in the face of ever-more deranged denunciations emanating from the US President.

Putin has already accomplished most of his goals, from liberating the Donbas and taking Mariupol from Azov, to destroying most of Ukraine’s military infrastructure, turning water on for the Crimea, and securing evidence of war-plans and biological weapons manufacture that vindicate his decision to go in.

For an operation lasting more than a month, there are relatively few civilian casualties, and most of them are a direct result of the Ukrainian military/government/Nazi battalions giving weapons to civilians, firing on them, placing them intentionally in harm’s ways, refusing to allow them to use the humanitarian corridors, and using them as hostages/military cover. Russia has lost more soldiers than they need have in trying to minimize the damage to the Ukrainians. Had they gone in with full force, there would have been a far greater number of casualties.

Widening the war at this point would endanger all Putin’s gains and would be reckless. So far all the signs point to Putin being a  prudent, competent leader.

Not so Zelensky, who foolishly gambled on NATO troops on the ground in a reckless, double-talking game that he has lost.

Zelensky must know it too because he has already started talking about accepting neutrality for Ukraine and has given up on NATO membership.

That means two of the most important strategic goals of Putin are in the process of being wrapped up. Why would he jeopardize things at this stage?

An outright war with NATO would have no winners except the global elites. With Russians suffering enormously from the sanctions, as well as Russian partners like China and India, poisoning negotiators risks alienating allies and widening the war.

On the other hand, the wider the war, the better for Zelensky, who has every reason to manufacture a provocation to get what he now sees slipping from him, NATO admission and NATO intervention.

So Zelenksy does have a motive to create a false-flag.

And his behavior so far supports this theory. Zelensky has been warning almost daily of possible chemical strikes by Russia.  He recently repeated claims that strikes on chemical factories and the use of phosphorus bombs by Russia constitute a use of chemical weapons that warrants NATO intervention. But in truth neither constitutes chemical weapons usage. Phosphorus bombs are not even categorized as chemical weapons. They’re widely used by militaries all over the world, although they should never be used against civilians because of the hideous injuries they inflict. They were used indiscriminately by the US in Fallujah in Iraq, which did constitute a war crime, but Fallujah was a horror show that is very, very far from what is happening in Ukraine now, despite what the mainstream media psyops tells you.

Still, Zelensky keeps claiming such attacks, which means he thinks that a provocation has its uses.

And if he cannot find one, he has every reason to manufacture one. A poisoning is after all a “chemical attack.” If the poison used is a radioactive substance, then that is a “nuclear attack.” And haven’t we been warned by Zelensky that the Russians will commit chemical and nuclear attacks? Voila, here we have it.

Is there anything else that supports this argument? Yes.

Just recently it was Zelenksy who lobbied the West to exclude Abramovich from the economic sanctions that have hit Russians, ostensibly because he was helping the negotiations.

UK and EU officials are skeptical about the claim, which is from unnamed sources in the US government, but reports are that Biden and Zelensky have been on the phone. Remember Maidan and Biden’s instructions to the Ukraine government to get rid of the prosecutor before he investigated Hunter Biden and Burisma’s corruption?

Today we know Hunter Biden’s company Rosemont Seneca was directly funding US biolabs in Ukraine in violation of international conventions. We know there is evidence supporting ethnic cleansing/genocide directed against Russian-speaking Slavs that goes back directly to the Pentagon, to Metabiota, to Hunter Biden, among many others. All these are international crimes. Does Joe Biden’s increasingly hysterical pronouncements have anything to do with revelations about the Biden crime family’s dealing in the Ukraine? Does he stand to gain from a widening of the war which could distract and cover up his crimes? Did he and Zelensky work out a quid pro quo that might provoke such a widening?

Abramovich got his exemption. It must have been in return for something.

I suggest that it was for Abramovich agreeing to go along with this false-flag.

There is some further circumstantial evidence.

The alleged poisoning follows on J. K. Rowling’s recent high-profile attack on Putin, who had just defended her in a speech denouncing cancel culture in the West.

In her rejoinder to Putin, Rowling explicitly referred to Putin “poisoning” his opponents, charges that have been circulating in the West for a long time but have never been proved. [see below, for details.]

A further point is that Rowling’s allegations of poisoning were made in a speech blaming Putin alone for civilian deaths in the Ukraine, indicating that she is fully behind the mainstream narrative on the war.

Given the extraordinary media coverage given to this children’s writer and the manner in which that has been spun off into manufacturing her as a voice for establishment liberal  positions in the culture war, isn’t there a good chance that Rowling herself is an intelligence plant or at least coopted to play her part in intelligence operations?

Consider this: In 2016 the Russian orthodox church along with the Russian Ministry of Culture and the Military cast Harry Potter and NATO as the Satanically -inspired foreign powers threatening Russia in a cartoon called Kids Against the Sorcerers. They are defeated by Russian military school cadets in a story that according to the narrator  “takes place in the present, past and future”.

Not only is the story about “belief in God” against the occult, but also against the Western pursuit of wealth, propagated by an unnamed “enemy” army “seeking a rematch for its defeat during WWII” and about uniting “different people such as the Greeks and the Serbs by common faith and tradition.”

Apparently,  Mr. Putin was trolling J. K. Rowling. She fell into the role cast for her in the film perfectly.

Addendum:. 

The most notorious poisoning case was that involving Putin critic and ex-KGB spy turned British agent,  Alexander Litvinenko, who died in the UK  from radioactive polonium-210 poisoning.

A British court found two Russians, one a member of the Russian parliament, guilty, but the court used conjectural language in suggesting the crime had the Russian state and Putin directly behind it.

The two Russians, both of whom apparently didn’t know the nature of the poison they were carrying,  said Litvinenko did it to himself.

The poisoning was rather suspicious, to my mind.

In the first place, a state like Russia has ample resources to come up with an untraceable poison. If that were not possible, the Russians would have staged the poisoning so as to make it look like an illness or an accident, so that investigation would be delayed until the poison was no longer detectable. And even if they could not disguise the poisoning, the Russians would have disguised the source, perhaps by making sure the poisoning took place at a public event where there was so much food from so many sources and so many people became ill that no one could be sure where or when the poison had been administered, let alone by whom.

If Putin were the ruthless gangster the West says he is, it would have been nothing to kill innocent people to disguise an assassination. It’s done all the time in the West. Or if he wished to send a message, he could at least have disguised the proximate cause of the assassination.

The Litvinenko case instead has all the hallmarks of being cooked-up to attack Putin. Radioactive plutonium may have been a bad choice for a Russian poisoning, as it would point back to Russia instantly. But it was the perfect choice for a false-flag poisoning to blame the Russian government. Litvinenko’s handlers in the West or elsewhere could have set him up to get rid of him and at the same time blame  Putin.

 

 

David Stockman: Ukraine Is A Fake Kleptocracy, Not Worth World War

Posted on by

In a historically informed and insightful piece on the background of the Ukraine war, David Stockman puts the failed kleptocracy of Ukraine and its tin-pot clown prince into proper historical perspective:

On April 26, 1954 The decree of the Presidium of the USSR Supreme Soviet transferring the Crimea Oblast from the Russian SFSR to the Ukrainian SSR. Taking into account the integral character of the economy, the territorial proximity and the close economic and cultural ties between the Crimea Province and the Ukrainian SSR….

So, yes, there is every reason for a Kiev government which finally sues for peace to return Crimea to Russia, which owned it all along; and in which Ukrainians accounts for less than 15% of the predominant Russian speaking population. For Washington to claim otherwise and encourage Zelensky to hold out is tantamount to a naked case of hegemonic arrogance.

After all, during the long decades of the Cold War, the West did nothing to liberate the “captive nation” of Ukraine – with or without the Crimean appendage bestowed upon it in 1954. Nor did it draw any red lines in the mid-1990s when a financially desperate Ukraine rented back Sevastopol and the strategic redoubts of Crimea to an equally pauperized Russia.

In short, in the era before we got our Pacific port in 1848 and even during the 170-year interval since then, America’s national security has depended not one whit on the status of Russian-speaking Crimea and the Donbas regions of eastern Ukraine. The fact that the local population of the former in March 2014 chose fealty to the Grand Thief in Moscow over the ruffians and rabble that have seized Kiev amounts to a giant, “So what?”

Still, it was this final aggressive drive of Washington and NATO into the internal affairs of Russia’s historical neighbor and vassal, Ukraine, that largely accounts for the current dangerous confrontation. Likewise, it is virtually the entire source of the false claim that Russia has aggressive, expansionist designs on the former Warsaw Pact states in the Baltics, Poland and beyond.

The latter is a nonsensical fabrication. In fact, it was the neocon meddlers from Washington who crushed Ukraine’s last semblance of democratic governance when they enabled ultra-nationalists and crypto-Nazis to gain government positions after the February 2014 coup, which threw-out Ukraine’s legitimately elected, Russia-leaning president.

In this context, moreover, the history of the 1930s and 1940s must never be forgotten. As indicated above, Stalin decimated upwards of 15% of the Ukrainian population during the Holodomer (starvations) and then moved huge numbers of Russian-speakers into the Donbas to safeguard its chemical, steel and armaments industries from the defiant locals who were sent to Siberia.

Thereafter, when Hitler’s Wehrmacht came charging through Ukraine on its way to the bloody battle of Stalingrad, it had no trouble recruiting hundreds of thousands of vengeance-seeking Ukrainian nationalists to its ranks to do its dirty work: That is, the brutal liquidation of Jews, Poles, Gypsies and other untermenschen.

In fact, during the fall of 1941 began the mass killings of Jews that continued through 1944. An estimated 1.5 million Ukrainian Jews perished, and over 800,000 were displaced to the east; at Baby Yar in Kyiv nearly 34,000 were killed in just the first two days of massacre – and all of these depredations were assisted and often executed by local Ukrainian nationalists.

Then, of course, the tide turned and the Red Army came marching back though the rubble of Ukraine on its way to Berlin. After their victory over the Germans at the Battle of Stalingrad in early 1943, the Soviets launched an equally brutal scorched earth counteroffensive westward, searching high and low for traitors and collaborators among the Ukrainian population who had allegedly aided the Wehrmacht.

The Germans thus began their slow retreat from Ukraine in mid-1943, leaving wholesale destruction in their wake. In November the Soviets reentered Kyiv, where guerrilla activity intensified amid bloody revenge killings which claimed huge numbers of civilian victims. By the spring of 1944 the Red Army had penetrated into Galicia (western Ukraine), and by the end of October Ukraine was a bloody wasteland, once again under Red Army control.

So it may be fairly asked: What Washington lame brains did not understand that triggering “regime change” in Kiev in February 2014 would reopen this entire blood-soaked history of sectarian and political strife?

Moreover, once they had opened Pandora’s Box, why was it so hard to see that an outright partition of Ukraine with autonomy for the Donbas and Crimea, or even accession to the Russian state from which these communities had originated, would have been a perfectly reasonable resolution?

Certainly that would have been far preferable to dragging all of Europe into the lunacy of the current military showdown and further embroiling the Ukrainian factions in a suicidal civil war.

Needless to say, Zelensky gets none of this in the slightest – even though as a native and Russian speaking son of southeastern Ukraine, he actually grew up in a part of modern Ukraine that had been Russian for 370 years!

That’s right. He’s just the perennial short guy feasting on his 15 minutes of fame. But enough is enough already. In a rational world this double-talking creep should have been sent packing this morning by the US Congress, but these war-obsessed nincompoops can’t see the handwriting on the wall.

So once again, here it is. This is where the story ends – even as Washington wages Sanctions War on the entire global economy and thereby the American people as well.

How Ukraine Will Be Partitioned After Kiev Capitulates

In any event, a TV actor who has no script other than that handed to him by his Washington/NATO overseers is one thing. And at the end of the day, it small potatoes compared to the grotesque negligence and misdirection of Sleepy Joe’s own keepers.

That is to say, Secy Blinkey and Snake Sullivan should be bent over the above map in earnest conversation with their Russian counterparts as to the fine points of the partition, and the meaning of “neutrality,” “de-nazification” and “demilitarization” of the green area of the map, which is to become the future “Ukraine,” if there is to be anything left at all.

Needless to say, they are not even talking to the Russians. They are, in fact, so red in tooth and claw with the blood of economic warfare that they would drive the global economy to collapse rather than acknowledge that they – and they alone – brought this horrendous situation to the doorstep of the world.”

 

Ukraine: The Kleptocrats’ War With Putin

Posted on by

It’s been a year since I blogged here, but the war in Ukraine has drawn me out finally.

Here is a link to my comments at Disqus, made most recently at American Conservative, at Rod Dreher’s blog.

As he’s Orthodox, his posts usually carry themes and information I find useful, but, while he is against the US being drawn into the war, he still makes a moral equivalence between both sides. That equivalence is ultimately soft support of the NATO position.

A limited war to address a serious security threat on a country’s borders and enforce treaty obligations might very well not even be a violation of international law.

I would have to look it up.

But intervening to end the bloody oppression of civilians and get rid of a government that is essentially a kleptocrat front likely meets the definition of a just war. Certainly, Russia has more justification in the Ukraine than America ever did in Iraq, and if I recall right, scholars like Jean Bethke Elshtain managed to defend that war on just war grounds [erroneously].

As for Zelensky, what can be said of a president who, instead of making absolutely reasonable concessions and thus limiting the damage to the population, opens the prison doors and lets out hardened criminals and puts automatic weapons into the hands of women and children?  Who teaches ordinary people to make Molotov cocktails to attack the best trained special operations forces in the world.

Zelensky is trying to increase Ukrainian civilian casualties. No question.

Consider his invitation to mercenaries and volunteers across the globe to show up in Ukraine to fight for his corrupt regime with free equipment given by NATO? How is this not anything but reckless, selfish, and completely contrary to the behavior of a truly courageous and responsible leader who would try to limit, not exacerbate, the bloodshed?

But then. it may not after all be Putin who harbors  dreams of blood and soil. There was, indeed, little evidence of that in the pragmatic speeches the Russian President gave on the eve of war.

But the billionaire backers of Zelensky [a Ukrainian Jew himself],  Igor Kolomoisky and Hennady Bogolyubov, who ran one of the largest frauds in banking history via PrivatGroup and PrivatBank, while also sitting as board members of various Jewish ethnic organizations, have already given their money to Jewish non profits in the US, some, like Chabad, fostering Jewish ethnic identity.

One needs to ask if the rebirth of a Ukrainian or Crimean homeland might actually be the goal of the Ukrainian Jews’ own territorial ambition?
