Understanding the Crisis in Ukraine

[John Flynn]

Added video of Sunday's press conference with the legitimate President of the Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, who was ousted by violent gangs who seized power in Kiev in late February. The U.S. government was instrumental in the overthrow of the elected government in Kiev and now supports the un-elected government that took power through a bloody coup.

"The U.S. has its share of responsibility in starting a civil war in Ukraine," ousted Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych said at a press conference in Russia.
"It intrudes and tells Ukraine what to do."

'I think,' said Sidonia, 'that there is no error so vulgar as to believe that revolutions are occasioned by economical causes.’
- Coningsby by Benjamin Disraeli (1844)

• This political cartoon suggests that the crisis in the Ukraine, which has been fomented by the Neo-Con Kagan family and their Zionist masters, will fail in the Ukraine. Americans should ask why is the United States government pursuing such a destructive and reckless foreign policy, which is clearly detrimental to our national interest?

• Sen. John McCain, the leading supporter of the Zionist war agenda in the U.S. Congress, talks to Arseniy Yatsenyuk (left), the new provisional prime minister, who happens to be Jewish, and Oleh Tyahnybok (center) of the "neo-Nazi" Svoboda party, in the Ukraine in December 2013. Isn't it odd that a Ukrainian Jew and a neo-Nazi should be working so closely together?

• Oleh Tyahnybok says a "Moscow-Jewish mafia" rules Ukraine and that "Germans, Kikes and other scum" want to "take away our Ukrainian state." In 2005, Tyahnybok, a trained medical doctor, co-signed an open letter to President Yushchenko calling for a parliamentary investigation into the "criminal activities of organized Jewry in Ukraine."

A battalion of Patriots of Ukraine paramilitaries tooled up in the midst of the protests.

• The far-right mobs were the vanguard of a protest movement that deposed the elected government of Ukraine, but who was directing the mob?

• THE ISRAELI PLATOON LEADER "DELTA"
  
  
  • One of the leaders of the Svoboda mob of anti-government protestors is "Delta", an Israeli veteran of the IDF's Givati infantry brigade, according to a report from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency (JTA.org).
    Delta, an Orthodox Jew in his late 30s, headed a force of 40 men and women, including several fellow IDF veterans, in violent clashes with government forces. As platoon leader, Delta says he takes orders from activists connected to Svoboda: “I don’t belong [to Svoboda], but I take orders from their team. They know I’m Israeli, Jewish and an ex-IDF soldier. Delta says he has frustrations related to being an outsider: “Sometimes I tell myself, ‘What are you doing? This is not your army. This isn’t even your country.’”

The crisis in the Ukraine is a very serious matter that pits the United States against Russia. While we don’t know how this crisis will end, we certainly know how it started and who has guided it to this dangerous point. In order to grasp what is really going on in Kiev, we need to understand who is pulling the strings in the so-called EuroMaidan protests and who has been appointed to head the unelected provisional government of the Ukraine.

I happen to have been reading Douglas Reed’s excellent historical analysis of Zionism, The Controversy of Zion, during the time when the world witnessed a regime change in the Ukraine, a regime change which has been forced on the people of the Ukraine by violent protestors in Kiev, the capital.

• The Controversy of Zion is an excellent historical analysis of Zionism. This book explains the roots and diabolical and destructive goals of Zionism. It is highly recommended reading.

In the chapter entitled “The Warnings of Disraeli”, I found a most apt quotation for the situation in the Ukraine in a speech Benjamin Disraeli, the first Jewish prime minister of Britain, gave in the House of Commons in 1852:

• The influence of the Jews may be traced in the last outbreak of the destructive principle in Europe. An insurrection takes place against tradition and aristocracy, against religion and property... the natural equality of men and the abrogation of property are proclaimed by the secret societies which form provisional governments, and men of the Jewish race are found at the head of every one of them.

After violent protestors seized government buildings, President Viktor Yanukovich fled the capital due to fear for his life and his family. This allowed the people guiding the protests in the street to push through appointments for a provisional government, which is headed by Arseniy Yatsenyuk.

• While violent protests created a coup situation, Victoria Nuland of the U.S. State Department chose Arseniy Yatsenyuk (right) to be the prime minister of Ukraine.

As Ben Judah wrote in his 2009 article for ISN Zurich, “Ukraine: The Rise of Yatsenyuk”:

• Yatsenyuk has two major issues that will come to a head before the elections. Firstly he is Jewish, which according to political analyst Taras Kuzio, could pose a major problem… Yatsenyuk’s Judaism is not his only identity related political problem. Members of his family were prominent in the Ukrainian nationalist movement, which will doubtless cost him votes in the country’s Russian-speaking east.

What is most disturbing about the regime change that brought Yatsenyuk to power is that he seems to have been put in that position through the actions of Victoria Nuland, an official of the U.S. State Department who is married to Robert Kagan. The Kagan family, Lithuanian Jews of Khazar ancestry, seems to have a permanent fiefdom at the State Department. [Kagan and Kahn are Khazar names that derive from a title of imperial rank in the Mongolian and Turkic languages equal to the status of emperor and someone who rules a khaganate.]

Robert, Fred, and their father, Donald Kagan, were the founders of the Project for a New American Century, which aggressively pushed for war against Iraq during the Clinton and Bush administrations. Rather than being allowed to start new wars, the Kagans should be prosecuted for their roles in the conspiracy to wage a war of aggression against Iraq. (See: "Russia Under Attack")

• Victoria Nuland Kagan of the U.S. State Department made a media event out of supporting the anti-government protests in Kiev. How would the U.S. government respond to a foreign diplomat taking such actions with protestors in front of the White House? Is this not improper meddling in the internal affairs of a sovereign nation?

To understand the illegal role that Victoria Nuland of the U.S. State Department played in setting up the provisional government in Kiev, just read this extract from her phone call with the U.S. Ambassador to the Ukraine. This phone call preceded the appointment of Yatsenyuk by about two weeks:

• Nuland: Good. I don't think Klitsch [Vitali Klitschko] should go into the government. I don't think it's necessary, I don't think it's a good idea.
  
  Pyatt: Yeah. I guess... in terms of him not going into the government, just let him stay out and do his political homework and stuff. I'm just thinking in terms of sort of the process moving ahead we want to keep the moderate democrats together. The problem is going to be Tyahnybok [Oleh Tyahnybok, Svoboda party] and his guys and I'm sure that's part of what [President Viktor] Yanukovych is calculating on all this.
  
  Nuland: [Breaks in] I think Yats [Arseniy Yatsenyuk] is the guy who's got the economic experience, the governing experience. He's the... what he needs is Klitsch and Tyahnybok on the outside. He needs to be talking to them four times a week, you know. I just think Klitsch going in... he's going to be at that level working for Yatseniuk, it's just not going to work.
  
  Pyatt: Yeah, no, I think that's right. OK. Good. Do you want us to set up a call with him as the next step?

THE NEW UKRAINIAN COMMANDER-IN-CHIEF

The coup in Kiev also made Oleksandr Turchynov the acting President of Ukraine. On February 25, Turchynov assumed the duties of the supreme commander-in-chief of the Ukrainian Armed Forces. While some American Baptists are reporting that Turchynov is a pastor or an elder at his church, the Word of Life Center in Kiev, they are missing the point. The Word of Life is a Zionist organization posing as a church. It was established by a Swedish Jew named Ulf Ekman, who created a church called “Livets Ord”, which established evangelical churches throughout the former Soviet Union in the early 1990s with the express purpose of finding and funding Jewish emigration to Israel.

The Word of Life church in Kiev...

and its pastor, the former head of Ukrainian intelligence, Oleksandr Turchynov,
who is now the acting president of Ukraine.
Pray tell, what kind of church is this?

As the Wikipedia article about “Livets Ord” says: In conjunction with Christian Zionists in the United States, Livets Ord operates a fund to supply money to Russian Jews who want to move to Israel. The fund, named "Operation Jabotinsky", is named after Russian Vladimir Jabotinsky.

Vladimir "Ze'ev" Jabotinsky (1880–1940), was a radical (i.e. revisionist) Zionist leader who established a number of Jewish terrorist organizations such as Beitar, Hatzohar, and the Irgun. The Irgun is the terrorist group, headed by Menachem Begin, that bombed the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. Begin founded the Likud party from the former members of these Zionist terrorist groups in the 1970s. The fact that “Livets Ord” runs "Operation Jabotinsky" to find Jews in the former Soviet Union to send to Israel indicates that it is working closely with the Mossad, the branch of Israeli intelligence that was originally created to facilitate Jewish emigration to Palestine.

As I discovered in Estonia, a pastor from “Livets Ord” went on to work for U.S. military intelligence (See: “Note from Christopher Bollyn”, March 28, 2009). This brings me to another aspect of the EuroMaidan protest that reeks of U.S. meddling in the internal politics of the Ukraine.

What I found in Estonia was that the so-called patriotic press was controlled by U.S. military intelligence asset Aleksander Einseln. Einseln was the retired U.S. Army officer from California who went to Estonia in the early 1990s to head the military of the newly-independent Estonia. What I discovered through this contact was that this “patriotic press” outfit controlled by General Einseln had several hundred skin-heads that it could mobilize for mob actions. This indicated that the "skin-head" movement in Estonia was actually a controlled mob that could be called upon by agents of U.S. military intelligence to create mob violence wherever and whenever needed.

Given what I have seen about how the U.S. military intelligence has cultivated hordes of agents in every country of the former Soviet Union through its programs at the Marshall Center in Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany, I would think that the skin-head situation in the Ukraine is not very different from what I found in Estonia. Their bosses probably attended the same courses at the Marshall Center.

THE SNIPERS

On February 20, snipers opened fire on the protestors and the police, killing many on both sides with shots to the head. This is the same kind of false-flag terrorism tactic that has been used by the rebels fighting against the Syrian government. An atrocity is committed with the intention that it will be blamed on the targeted party, in this case the Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovich.

According to a leaked report from an Estonian diplomat who was in Kiev shortly after the killings, it now appears likely that the snipers were working on behalf of the opposition - not the Yanukovich government. Video evidence taken during the shooting indicates that the protestors were being fired on from the rear, evidently from the multi-story hotel controlled by the Maidan protestors behind them.

"Maidan - Inconvenient truth: shooting in the back"

In an intercepted phone call between Estonian Foreign Affairs Minister Urmas Paet and EU Foreign Affairs chief Catherine Ashton, Paet, who had just been in the Ukraine, can be heard telling Ashton that it was not Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich who was behind the sniper killings of people in the Maidan, “but it was somebody from the new coalition.” This exchange can be heard from about 8:15 to 9:15 in the video that contains the entire phone call between Paet and Ashton.

• Urmas Paet: What was quite disturbing, this same Olga told as well that all the evidence shows that the people who were killed by snipers from both sides, among policemen and then people from the streets, that they were the same snipers killing people from both sides.
  
  Ashton: Well, yeah…that’s, that’s terrible.
  
  Paet: She then also showed me some photos she said that as a medical doctor she can say that it is the same handwriting, the same type of bullets, and it’s really disturbing that now the new coalition, that they don’t want to investigate what exactly happened. So there is now stronger and stronger understanding that behind the snipers, it was not Yanukovych, but it was somebody from the new coalition.

When we have Oleh Tyahnybok saying a "Moscow-Jewish mafia" rules Ukraine -- and then joining a coalition in which a Jew takes the highest government post, and, further, allying himself with the uber-Zionist Washington regime, we have what seems to me a surreal situation.

The simplest explanations to me are 1) Tyahnybok and company are idiots or 2) Tyahnybok and company are not what they claim to be.

There's a lot I'm not sure of. But one thing I do believe: Whoever trusts the regime in Washington as their "ally" is going to regret it, if they survive.

Here is a couple of pictures of Arseniy Yatsenyuk with Pope Francis. Is there any doubt where the Catholic Church Stands in the midst of this crisis. There cannot be any doubt that Pope Francis is leading his legions of Christian followers to disaster.

Ukrainian Jewish mayor wounded by gunshots treated at Israel hospital

Israeli doctors assessed Kharkiv Mayor Gennady Kernes' condition at the Kharkiv emergency hospital when they arrived after midnight and made the decision to move him to Haifa.

The Jewish mayor of eastern Ukraine's biggest city was in "stable" condition on Tuesday in a hospital in Israel, where he was flown after being wounded in the highest-profile assassination attempt in the two-month-old standoff between Kiev and Moscow.

Gennady Kernes, one of Ukraine's most prominent Jewish politicians, was shot in the back on Monday in Kharkiv, and underwent surgery in Ukraine on Monday. Officials had said his injuries were life-threatening.

After protesters toppled pro-Moscow Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovich in February, Kernes, 54, supported calls for Kharkiv to become independent from Kiev's new, pro-European leaders.

But he changed his views after being accused of fomenting separatism and when Ukrainian police forced pro-Russian protesters out of administrative buildings in the city.

A Ukrainian local government official said Kernes was either riding his bicycle or jogging when he was shot by someone probably hidden in nearby woods. His bodyguards were following in a car but were not close enough to intervene.

The Ukrainian embassy in Tel Aviv said it was not involved in Kernes's hospitalization in Israel, and that it may have been privately arranged and funded.

Ukrainian forces re-gained control of Kharkiv this month after administrative buildings were occupied by pro-Russian separatists. Kharkiv is the only major eastern city to have taken back control from the armed protesters who have demanded a referendum on independence for most of eastern Ukraine.

Ukraine's interior ministry said on Monday they were investigating whether the shooting was in retaliation for the detention of 13 pro-Russian separatists on Sunday on charges of possession of petrol bombs, explosives and nails.

Kernes is one of Ukraine's most prominent Jewish politicians who according to his official biography started out working for state enterprises in the city before embarking on a series of business ventures including gas trading.

Kharkiv is one of the most pro-Russian cities in the country’s Russian-speaking east and was one of the only locations in which government forces had been able to dislodge separatists occupying government buildings. It has been the site of ongoing clashes between supporters of the new administration in Kiev and those in favor of federalization with Russia. Fourteen people were hurt in clashes between the two factions on Sunday.

Ukrainian Jewish Committee head Eduard Dolinsky told The Jerusalem Post: “It’s, of course terrible. We don’t know what really happened and who is behind this crime.

Although I don’t think there is a Jewish connection in this crime.”

So far there have been no indications that the shooting was connected to a series of anti-Semitic incidents that have occurred in the country since the beginning of the protests last year.

Local Jews in Kharkiv were praying for Kernes, the website of the Chabad-Lubavitch hassidic movement reported.

“All we can do right now is pray. He’s a good friend of the Jewish community and has helped us in many ways,” Rabbi Moshe Moskowitz, Chabad’s emissary in the city, told the website.

So Jewish Ukranians have ambulances that fly them to Israel? LOL. How does this Mayor save face is he ever plans to return to that city in Ukraine? The people of that city should view him as an expatriate. I wonder if he will even return to the Ukraine given that people are trying to kill him. If he does it will probably be only if "EuroMaidaners" stabilize that region.
