“REPEATING OLD AND DIRTY TRICKS”
Why
should we not be surprised by what is happening in Ukraine?
By Sir
Charlattam
It was late January 2005 and the Anglo-American Interim
Administration administering the occupation of Iraq knew that it could not
control the internal situation in the country and placing its puppets in power
would not be easy, even if it controlled the elective apparatus. They needed to
legitimise that process, but even more so, their military occupation.
Mortar attacks on
rows of Baghdadi civilians waiting to vote became commonplace and the media did
not hesitate to accuse “Islamist terrorism” of being the “insurgents”. In
reality, there was a national resistance that lasted until the invaders left
the country in 2011, but it was not the invaders who were murdering their
compatriots. They were teams of assassins recruited before the invasion (many
of them trained in Jordan) who became part of the new Mukhabarat
directed and controlled in its early days by the CIA.
Today in Ukraine
we are seeing similar tactics behind which there is no doubt that Anglo-Saxon
and NATO advisors are behind. The executions in “Bucha”, too explicit and
unnecessary for a Russian army that dominated the terrain, are part of a macabre
strategy that seeks to place the full horror of the war on Moscow's shoulders. After
the capture of several buildings under the control of the Azov Battalions in
Mariupol (with French advisers), unspeakable aberrations were discovered in
their basements, which could not be hidden by the Western media. Torture and
rape of girls and teenagers by these extremists have been exposed after the DPR
militias and Chechen groups took control and the inhabitants cooperate with
them to expel the remaining remnants from the city. But for those of us who
have been following events there, this is not the first time it has been seen.
At the start of
all this, back in February 2014 when the Maidan coup took place, what the
Western media painted as “demonstrations for freedom and democracy” were
nothing more than a coordinated, CIA-led agitation that Under Secretary
Victoria Nuland and US Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt never managed to disprove.
Much less did subsequent administrations in Washington. This shows that this is
not a formula of a particular government or party, it is a state policy.
The missile attack
on the Kramatorsk train station is another chapter in this policy. According to
media repeating the Ukrainian version, a Russian missile was deliberately fired
into a crowd of civilians waiting to leave the capital. According to the
Zelensky government's version, the attack was carried out with a “Tochka-U”
missile with a cluster head, killing 30 civilians and injuring more than 100.
On the face of it, a shocking and aberrant act designed to create outrage
against Russia, but the Ukrainian reporters themselves missed certain details
that betray otherwise.
According to these sources, a Russian “Tochka-U” missile fell on the Kramatorsk station, but this missile system has not been in service with the Russian military for some time. To be precise, in 2019. So, where did this missile come from? The explanation is not that complex. This tactical missile system known as “SS-21 Scaraba” is indeed operational in what remains of the Ukrainian Armed Forces (UAF) and it is even known that there are Western-made replica systems in existence that could be being introduced in the field.
Interestingly, a
few days before the attack, intelligence sources claimed that Russia had
reintroduced the “Tochka-U” missile system into service. The sources claimed
that caravans of these mobile systems had been seen moving between the
Belarusian towns of “Rechitsa” and “Gomel”, but the veracity of this allegation
was not confirmed.
In fact, this is
not the first time Ukrainian forces have used the “Tochka-U” against civilians.
The attack just a week ago on 14 March in Donbass, where more than a dozen
Russian-speaking civilians were killed, saw the Western media falsify the story
by claiming it was the Russians. If one connects the dots, one can conclude
that these are brutally desperate tactics by which Zelensky and his mafia do
not intend to hold on to power. So, who is the butcher in this story?
When the Russian
Defence Ministry denied this accusation and explained why it could not have
been a missile attack, the disinformation and media that support Zelensky were
in disarray. The inconsistencies that were revealed led many to ask how could
this have happened? Warned of this and in a way of trying to save the mistake,
they clumsily tried to change their version.
They went on to say that the attack was actually by an “Iskander” missile, which is part of the Russian surface-to-surface missile system, but once again, as if it were a tragic comedy, they contradicted themselves when they showed photos of the attack showing that pieces of the missiles left in the vicinity of the station were actually from the Ukrainian “Tochka-U” system. To the layman's eye it makes no difference, but not to the experts the details make a difference.
It is hard to
believe that regular Ukrainian soldiers (serving their people) would have lent
themselves to this dirty “Black-Op”, but no doubt special forces (with foreign
mercenaries under NATO control) or ultra-nationalist militiamen loyal to “Pradvy
Sektor” (also armed by NATO) would have had no problem sacrificing civilians as
shields. They are playing on the media's impact on public opinion. They also
know that if the city is emptied, Russian troops will crush them mercilessly as
happened in Mariupol.
