Nemtsov, Crimea & Western Hypocrisy

GOOGLE TRANSLATION A black day for Russia and Europe February 28, 2015 Megeve: Boris Nemtsov was a truly fearless political fighter with strong convictions and a confidence that the ideals he stood for, sooner or later, would win and form a better Russia.  [Oh, please.  Spare us the 'high ideals' propaganda and put away the violin.] He was murdered most likely to silence him. His critical and clear voice was uncomfortable for the strong and dark interests which unfortunately means more and more in today's Russia. [We don't know who murdered him.  Guy was a womaniser by the look of things, so it could even have been some crazed boyfriend.  But what we do know is that the Kremlin is unlikely to knock off a minor player, ahead of a protest (near the Kremlin), so that the likes of McFaul & Bildt can have a media field day.] And there were probably actually no other way to silence Boris on. Others let themselves might be intimidated - it did not work on him.  [The motive is an assumption.  Not fact.  We don't know why he was killed.] When he occasionally arrested for participating in a demonstration declared illegal, he spent time in jail for spreading their beliefs and information to the police and guards. And had, as far as I remember he told me, considerable success with this.  [Does Bildt express the same care-factor for the Swedish protesters that were charged at by mounted police?  Or is it just some minor Russian opposition puppet that's worthy of the subsequent, and convenient, Western media hype?] We got to know each other first in the Russian democracy birth in the early 1990s. He belonged to the leader of the Democratic Party which then were set up and became the reform policy leading carriers. Along with Anatoly Chubais, he was its leading force. And then we had contact. In recent years, he has almost always been to spend an autumn weekend in Visby, along with friends from Europe and the United States of Jarl Hjalmarsson Foundation's annual meeting. His crystal clear analysis of developments in Russia has been important to many of us. In one little book after the other, he with difficulty been distributed across Russia, he has gone on the attack against the regime's lies and its corruption. A small writing the other year on the luxury and splendor that surrounds President Putin was extremely unpopular in the Kremlin. He was a friend of Ukraine since years back, albeit not by the regime Yanukovich there. And when the militant nationalism was trumpeted in connection with the aggression and the takeover of the Crimean a year ago he was one of the voices that stood up for Ukraine's right.  [Instead of crying about 'aggressor' Russia inciting 'righteous' Ukraine nationalism (and therefore Russia being responsible for Ukraine aggression, which is alluded to as apology for murderous neo-Nazi Ukraine thugs), why wasn't this 'liberty loving' crusader protesting the murder of his independence seeking compatriots - the ethnic-Russian majority civilians in eastern Ukraine (which, by the way, is historically Russian - hence 'Novorossiya').  Edit:  On subsequent reading of the 'friend of Ukraine' and 'militant nationalism was trumpeted in connection with the aggression' blah blah blah 'takeover of Crimea', it looks as though I have misunderstood whose 'aggression' and 'militant nationalism' Bilt was referring to. Talk about twisting facts and history to suit oneself.  Crimea is Russian.  Novorossiya is Russian.  And probably most of what has become 'Ukraine', post Soviet era, is historically Russian. 'Russian' 'militant nationalism' and 'aggression' is Russia stepping up to protect people in Crimea from the consequences of having murderous neo-Nazi thugs running amok and potentially subjecting Crimeans to (historically CIA fostered and Nazi collaborator fomented) neo-Nazi militant nationalism and hostility; thugs that were associated with the Ukraine puppet politicians and were supported by the US interlopers, because they're useful idiots. Furthermore, Slavic peoples of Europe have been divided by enemies who have exploited useful idiots who foster regional loyalties and separatist identities, rather than pan Slavic nationalism, because 'divide and conquer' is an effective take-down strategy. Why wasn't Nemtsov denouncing the West for backing the puppet Kiev & neo-Nazi murder of civilians?  MILITANT NEO-NAZI AGGRESSON was HARNESSED by the CIA & THE WEST & EXPLOITATION OF UKRAINE NATIONALISM was employed for a thug OVERTHROW of an ELECTED UKRAINE GOVT.  But this isn't denounced & the murder of the ethnic Russians in the east isn't denounced.  But Russia is denounced?  The only aggression is US-NATO-EU aggression and US-NATO-EU backed aggression enacted by Ukraine nationalist thugs - oddly, in a country run by FOREIGNERS.] Perhaps it is an irony of fate that he was killed exactly one year after the Crimean invasion launched by special forces early in the morning took over control of the regional parliament in Simferopol.   [Russians protecting Crimean Russians (who voted overwhelmingly to INTEGRATE with Russia) is Bildt's idea of an 'invasion'?  Nah, he and the West are just manipulating the narrative to suit their anti-Russian scaremongering, so that Western banking & corporate interest and NATO (strategic interests) can continue to mount their aggression against Russia, while the taxpayer is burdened with cuts to welfare and services, in order to finance more Western military spending and greed-based aggression, serving the interests of the wealthy banking, energy, and hedge fund elites.] On social media, I see reports that he was now working with a new scripture to expose the regime's lies about the war in the Donbass and how it has been driven and supported by the Kremlin. And it seems very likely.  [Social media?  Is that all the evidence Bilt and the West have?  Gee, it's like all those fake 'Russian army' invading Ukraine announcements we've had over and over and over again.  The West is a joke.  Seriously.  The West might have got away with this when all people had to rely on was maybe a daily newspaper or two, but there's a host of information available and the lies and propaganda the West keeps churning out do more to discredit the West than their targets.] A new generation has partially managed to take over the leadership of the weak but important Russian opposition, but Boris Nemtsov was always there with and remained a name with distinguished reputation and credibility. https://carlbildt.wordpress.com/2015/02/28/en-svart-dag-for-ryssland-och-europa/ INFO Jarl Hjalmarson Foundation Name = homage to the late Moderate Party Chairman Jarl Hjalmarson Chairman  =  Göran Lennmarker, former MP Former: Gunnar Hökmark, MEP Swedish former MFA, Margaretha af Ugglas ‘democracy foundation’ Closely linked to Moderate Party Founded 1994 (when Moderate Party supported newly independent Baltic countries) Member of the Centre for European Studies official foundation/think tank of the European People's Party Purpose: training of politicians active in the Moderate Party’s sister parties women youth engaged democratic political party workings educational programs & how to work politically know-how taught Operates in Russia, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Turkey & Balkans.

[SOURCE - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jarl_Hjalmarson_Foundation COMMENT A black day for Russia and Europe.  Exaggerating much, Carl?  LOL Of course, Carl Bidlt, the Eurocentric mob, UK politicians, the UK professional political chorus (ex MI6, some humanitarian bandwagon medico and anointed opinion-shaper, a lapdog press etc) and the USA team (Obama, McCain (who was 'heartbroken' LMAO), McFaul and the US ambassador in Russia dashing over for a photo-op) have all jumped on the suspiciously timed & located killing of a minor Russian opposition figure who was insignificant in elections and polls. McFaul's message still gives me the giggles.  Mein Gott, is that a touch of Killary I've got happening?  Guess I'm not the only one suspecting a US hand in the shooting of Nemtsov, just prior to a protest that had been arranged. Jarl Hjalmarson Foundation must be Sweden's version of the Freedom House trojan for dislodging those that are not Western puppets and appointing Western puppets in their place, using the guise of bringing 'democracy' to the targets of their exploitation:  in this case, women and youths. The aim in the Baltics was to get a firm hold of the politics and commerce, and to maintain a grip while denying the Russians a stake in the action, in any way possible. Pretty much the same deal everywhere else, however far-flung.  It's about keeping the regions in the sphere of American / Western corporate and military interest influence.  Funny how Bildt refers to the 'regime' and it's 'corruption' and the splendour the guy that got whacked reckons Putin's living in.   How, exactly, is this different to the riches of the 1% puppet-masters in the West, the benefits to their political puppets in Western politics, the fascist control that is capitalist government protecting the interest of those at the top, and the corruption of 'democracy', cronyism and so on that is the political reality of Western 'democratic' regimes? Oh, and this is what happens to protesters in a democracy (Sweden): Police spokeswoman Ewa-Gun Westford said officers on horseback chased rock-throwing demonstrators who were "causing violent riots" in Malmo, Sweden's third-largest city. Swedish media published photos of people on the ground as police horses raced over them down a street.

So somebody is throwing rocks somewhere during this protest and mounted police decide to charge ... right through a crowd of protesters?  Riiiiiight. When not charging over protesters on horseback or belting, capsicum spraying or otherwise abusing protesters, the West also imprisons protesters and does sneaky stuff like giving them bail (on charges they'll never pursue), so that the people charged can be excluded from participating in protests (which is their political right).  And it infiltrates dissenters.  Check out UK.  ............................................................ The West's Crimean 'annexation': Supreme Council of Crimea Determined:  ousting of President Viktor Yanukovych (2014 Ukraine): i)   a coup ii) interim govt in Kiev therefore illegitimate Referendum (March 2014)  = response to these developments Result =  96.77% vote (83.% turnout) Crimea CHOSE:  integration of region into Russian Federation Source:  Wikipedia [Edit = reference to 'Ukraine' earlier, in error.  Probably half asleep composing this rant.
