Top Dems are involved in the plundering of the Ukraine: new names, mind-boggling accounts. The mysterious ‘whistleblower’ whose report had unleashed the impeachment is named in the exclusive interview given to the Unz Review by a prominent Ukrainian politician, an ex-Member of Parliament of four terms, a candidate for Ukraine’s presidency, Oleg Tsarev.
Mr Tsarev, a tall, agile and graceful man, a good speaker and a prolific writer, had been a leading and popular Ukrainian politician before the 2014 putsch; he stayed in the Ukraine after President Yanukovych’s flight; ran for the Presidency against Mr Poroshenko, and eventually had to go to exile due to multiple threats to his life. During the failed attempt to secede, he was elected the speaker of the Parliament of Novorossia (South-Eastern Ukraine). I spoke to him in Crimea, where he lives in the pleasant seaside town of Yalta. Tsarev still has many supporters in the Ukraine, and is a leader of the opposition to the Kiev regime.
Oleg, you followed Biden story from its very inception. Biden is not the only Dem politician involved in the Ukrainian corruption schemes, is he?
Indeed, John Kerry, the Secretary of State in Obama’s administration, was his partner-in-crime. But Joe Biden was number one. During the Obama presidency, Biden was the US proconsul for Ukraine, and he was involved in many corruption schemes. He authorised transfer of three billion dollars of the US taxpayers’ money to the post-coup government of the Ukraine; the money was stolen, and Biden took a big share of the spoils.
It is a story of ripping the US taxpayer and the Ukrainian customer off for the benefit of a few corruptioners, American and Ukrainian. And it is a story of Kiev regime and its dependence on the US and IMF. The Ukraine has a few midsize deposits of natural gas, sufficient for domestic household consumption. The cost of its production was quite low; and the Ukrainians got used to pay pennies for their gas. Actually, it was so cheap to produce that the Ukraine could provide all its households with free gas for heating and cooking, just like Libya did. Despite low consumer price, the gas companies (like Burisma) had very high profits and very little expenditure.
After the 2014 coup, IMF demanded to raise the price of gas for the domestic consumer to European levels, and the new president Petro Poroshenko obliged them. The prices went sky-high. The Ukrainians were forced to pay many times more for their cooking and heating; and huge profits went to coffers of the gas companies. Instead of raising taxes or lowering prices, President Poroshenko demanded the gas companies to pay him or subsidise his projects. He said that he arranged the price hike; it means he should be considered a partner.
Burisma Gas company had to pay extortion money to the president Poroshenko. Eventually its founder and owner Mr Nicolai Zlochevsky decided to invite some important Westerners into the company’s board of directors hoping it would moderate Poroshenko’s appetites. He had brought in Biden’s son Hunter, John Kerry, Polish ex-President Kwasniewski; but it didn’t help him.
Poroshenko became furious that the fattened calf may escape him, and asked the Attorney General Shokin to investigate Burisma trusting some irregularities would emerge. AG Shokin immediately discovered that Burisma had paid these ‘stars’ between 50 and 150 thousand dollar per month each just for being on the list of directors. This is illegal by the Ukrainian tax code; it can’t be recognised as legitimate expenditure.
At that time Biden the father entered the fray. He called Poroshenko and gave him six hours to close the case against his son. Otherwise, one billion dollars of the US taxpayers’ funds won’t pass to the Ukrainian corruptioners. Zlochevsky, the Burisma owner, paid Biden well for this conversation: he received between three and ten million dollars, according to different sources.
AG Shokin said he can’t close the case within six hours; Poroshenko sacked him and installed Mr Lutsenko in his stead. Lutsenko was willing to dismiss the case of Burisma, but he also could not do it in a day, or even in a week. Biden, as we know, could not keep his trap shut: by talking about the pressure he put on Poroshenko, he incriminated himself. Meanwhile Mr Shokin gave evidence that Biden put pressure on Poroshenko to fire him, and now it was confirmed. The evidence was given to the US lawyers in connection with another case, Firtash case.
What is Firtash Case?
The Democrats wanted to get another Ukrainian oligarch, Mr Firtash, to the US and make him to confess that he illegally supported Trump’s campaign for the sake of Russia. Firtash had been arrested in Vienna, Austria; there he fought extradition to the US. His lawyers claimed it is purely political case, and they used Mr Shokin’s deposition to substantiate their claim. For this reason, the evidence supplied by Shokin is not easily reversible, even if Shokin were willing, and he is not. He also stated under oath that the Democrats pressurised him to help and extradite Firtash to the US, though he had no standing in this purely American issue. It seems that Mrs Clinton believes that Firtash’s funds helped Trump to win elections, an extremely unlikely thing [says Mr Tsarev].
Talking about Burisma and Biden; what is this billion dollars of aid that Biden could give or withhold?
It is USAID money, the main channel of the US aid for “support of democracy”. First billion dollars of USAID came to the Ukraine in 2014. This was authorised by Joe Biden, while for Ukraine, the papers were signed by Mr Turchinov, the “acting President”. The Ukrainian constitution does not know of such a position, and Turchinov, “the acting President” had no right to sign neither a legal nor financial document. Thus, all the documents that were signed by him, in fact, had no legal force. However, Biden countersigned the papers signed by Turchynov and allocated money for Ukraine. And the money was stolen – by the Democrats and their Ukrainian counterparts.
Two years ago, (that is already under President Trump) the United States began to investigate the allocation of 3 billion dollars; it was allocated in 2014, in 2015, in 2016; one billion dollars per year. The investigation showed that the documents were falsified, the money was transferred to Ukraine, and stolen. The investigators tracked each payment, discovered where the money went, where it was spent and how it was stolen.
As a result, in October 2018, the U.S. Department of Justice opened a criminal case for “Abuse of power and embezzlement of American taxpayers’ money”. Among the accused there are two consecutive Finance Ministers of the Ukraine, Mrs Natalie Ann Jaresko who served 2014-2016 and Mr Alexander Daniluk who served 2016-2018, and three US banks. The investigation caused the USAID to cease issuing grants since August 2019. As Trump said, now the US does not give away money and does not impose democracy.
The money was allocated with the flagrant violation of American law. There was no risk assessment, no audit reports. Normally the USAID, when allocating cash, always prepares a substantial package of documents. But the billions were given to Ukraine completely without documents. The criminal case on the embezzlement of USAID funds had been signed personally by the US Attorney General, so these issues are very much alive.
Sam Kislin was involved in this investigation. He is a good friend and associate of Giuliani, Trump’s lawyer and an ex-mayor of New York. Kislin is well known in Kiev, and I have many friends who are Sam’s friends [said Tsarev]. I learned of his progress, because some of my friends were detained in the United States, or interrogated in Ukraine. They briefed me about this. It appears that Burisma is just the tip of the scandal, the tip of the iceberg. If Trump will carry on, and use what was already initiated and investigated, the whole headquarters of the Democratic party will come down. They will not be able to hold elections. I have no right to name names, but believe me, leading functionaries of the Democratic party are involved.
Poroshenko was aware of that; he gave orders to declare Sam Kislin persona non grata. Once the old man (he is over 80) flew into Kiev airport and he was not allowed to come in; he spent the night in detention and was flown back to the US next day. Poroshenko had been totally allied with Clinton camp.
And President Zelensky? Is he free from Clintonite Democrats’ influence?
If he were, there would not be the scandal of Trump phone call. How the Democrats learned of this call and its alleged content? The official version says there was a CIA man, a whistle-blower, who reported to the Democrats. What the version does not clarify, where this whistle-blower was located during the call. I tell you, he was located in Kiev, and he was present at the conversation, at the Ukrainian President Zelensky’s side. This man was (perhaps) a CIA asset, but he also was a close associate of George Soros, and a Ukrainian high-ranking official. His name is Mr Alexander Daniluk. He is also the man the investigation of Sam Kislin and of the DoJ had led to, the Finance Minister of Ukraine at the time, the man who was responsible for the embezzlement of three billion US taxpayer’s best dollars. The DoJ issued an order for his arrest. Naturally he is devoted to Biden personally, and to the Dems in general. I would not trust his version of the phone call at all.
Daniluk was supposed to accompany President Zelensky on his visit to Washington; but he was informed that there is an order for his arrest. He remained in Kiev. And soon afterwards, the hell of the alleged leaked phone call broke out. Zelensky administration investigated and concluded that the leak was done by Mr Alexander Daniluk, who is known for his close relations with George Soros and with Mr Biden. Alexander Daniluk had been fired. (However, he did not admit his guilt and said the leak was done by his sworn enemy, the head of president’s administration office, Mr Andrey Bogdan, who allegedly framed Daniluk.)
This is not the only case of US-connected corruption in Ukraine. There is Amos J. Hochstein, a protege of former VP Joe Biden, who has served in the Barack Obama administration as the Assistant Secretary of State for Energy Resources. He still hangs on the Ukraine. Together with an American citizen Andrew Favorov, the Deputy Director of Naftogas he organised very expensive “reverse gas import” into Ukraine. In this scheme, the Russian gas is bought by Europeans and afterwards sold to Ukraine with a wonderful margin. In reality, gas comes from Russia directly, but payments go via Hochstein. It is much more costly than to buy directly from Russia; Ukrainian people pay, while the margin is collected by Hochstein and Favorov. Now they plan to import liquefied gas from the United States, at even higher price. Again, the price will be paid by the Ukrainians, while profits will go to Hochstein and Favorov.
In all these scams, there are people of Clinton and spooks who are fully integrated in the Democratic Party. A former head of CIA, Robert James Woolsey, now sits on the Board of Directors of Velta, producing Ukrainian titanium. Woolsey is a neocon, a member of the Project for the New American Century (PNAC), pro-Israel think-tank, and a man who relentlessly pushed for Iraq war. A typical Democrat spook, now he gets profits from Ukrainian ore deposits.
One of the best Ukrainian corruption stories is connected with Audrius Butkevicius, the former Minister of Defence (1996 to 2000) and a Member of the Seimas (Parliament) of post-Soviet Lithuania. Mr AB is supposedly working for MI6, and now is a member of the notorious Institute for Statecraft, a UK deep state propaganda outfit involved in disinformation operations, subversion of the democratic process and promoting Russophobia and the idea of a new cold war. In 1991 he commanded snipers that shoot Lithuanian protesters. The kills were ascribed to the Soviet armed forces, and the last Soviet President Mr Gorbachev ordered speedy withdrawal of his troops from Lithuania. Mr AB became the Minister of Defence of his independent nation. In 1997 the Honourable Minister of Defence “had requested 300,000 USD from a senior executive of a troubled oil company for his assistance in obtaining the discontinuance of criminal proceedings concerning the company’s vast debts”, in the language of the court judgement. He was arrested on receipt of the bribe, had been sentenced to five years of jail, but a man with such qualifications was not left to rot in a prison.
In 2005 he commanded the snipers who killed protesters in Kyrgyzstan, in Georgia he repeated the feat in 2003 during the Rose Revolution. In 2014 he did it again in Kiev, where his snipers killed around a hundred men, protesters and police. He was brought to Kiev by Mr Turchinov, who called himself the “acting President” and who countersigned Joe Biden’s billion dollars’ grant.
In October 2018 the name of Mr AB came up again. Military warehouses of Chernigov had caught fire; allegedly thousands of shells stored for fighting the separatists had been destroyed by fire. And it was not the first fire of this kind: the previous one, equally huge, torched Ukrainian army warehouses in Vinnitsa in 2017. Altogether, there were 12 huge army arsenal fires for the last few years. Just for 2018, the damage was over \$2 billion.
When Chief Military Prosecutor of Ukraine Anatoly Matios investigated the fires, he discovered that 80% of weapons and shells in the warehouses were missing. They weren’t destroyed by fire, they weren’t there in the first place. Instead of being used to kill the Russian-speaking Ukrainians of Donetsk, the hardware had been shipped from the port of Nikolaev to Syria, to the Islamic rebels and to ISIS. And the man who organised this enormous operation was our Mr AB, the old fighter for democracy on behalf of MI6, acting in cahoots with the Minister of Defence Poltorak and Mr Turchinov, the friend of Mr Biden. (They say Mr Matios was given \$10 million for his silence).
The loss was of Ukrainian people, and of US taxpayers, while the beneficiaries were the Deep State, which is probably just another name for the deadly mix of spooks, media and politicians.

The globalist criminal elites will not be held responsible for any of these crimes. They’re bound together by ties of blackmail forged by guys like Epstein, mutually assured incrimination in serial swindles which cross Left and Right political boundaries and literal murder in the case of guys like Seth Rich. The cozy proximity of recently-murdered Epstein himself to crypto-converso AG Barr’s family only makes me more certain that they will get away with this heist like they’ve done with dozens of other billion-dollar swindles.
If they were only stealing money it would be bad enough, but the fact that these same grifters are our “diplomats” and warmakers is positively Orwellian. Watching these petty hoodlums play nuclear chicken with Russia so they can squeeze more shekels from the supine Ukraine would be laughable if I could get the first-strike nightmares of my Cold War childhood out of my head long enough to laugh.
Who will hold then responsible? The country appears to have been entirely taken over by crookish spooks and politicians.
The US is now confirmed as a cleptocracy.
Kind of makes me wish I owned a national newspaper.
This would be a great front page story.
“Top Dems are involved in the plundering of the Ukraine: new names, mind-boggling accounts.

Actually, the central figure here is Trump, who used backchannels to get the Ukraine government to investigate Biden, even though a top justice official there said Biden was not involved in any corruption. We can speculate as to who is the whistleblower, but the article tries to paint the person as being THE sole person responsible for bringing malfeasance to the attention of the American government. It is an allegation, NOT definitive proof.
Ukraine is corrupted by outsiders (those who are not Ukrainian/Russian). In past centuries there was a simple but effective answer to foreigners corrupting their country. The Cossacks would sharpen up their sabres. saddle up their horses and have a slaughter. It was effective then and would be effective today. Get rid of those who are not Slavic.
The last act of an Imperial elite is to loot the Empire.
The owner of Burisma is Igor Kolomoisky – not Nicolai Zlochevsky. Zlochevsky sold out years ago.
The Hunt For Burisma, Part II — What Role For Igor Kolomoisky, What London Missed, What Washington Doesn’t Want To See
The sooner people start understanding who is the real owner, the sooner the whole thing will become clear.
FYI, Kolomoisky is the wealthy sponsor of recently-elected president Zelensky. Just look at the body-language at Trump and Zelensky to see the discomfort.

Look. Barry Soetoro (“Obama”), & James Comey (FBI) have not been prosecuted for spying on the Trump Campaign (as an “insurance policy” vs. Trump, in the lead-up to the 2016 Election), not to mention the fact that HITLAR-Y Clinton hasn’t been prosecuted for ANYTHING ~ Clinton “Body Count”, Benghazi, not to mention the URANIUM ONE deal, along with John Podesta, in which the deal was to sell 20% of America’s Uranium to Russia.
This is proof positive, that the “Left” is OWNED by the (((.001% Western International Central Bankers))), the (((ZIONIST BANKERS))) who FINANCE “globalism” / socialism / (((communism))), the (((ZIONIST BANKERS))) who FINANCE the “Secret Government” (CFR) & “Deep State” (CIA). “The goal of socialism is (((communism))).” — Lenin.
If you paid attention to the MSM and the comments sections you would clearly see that the establishment and the American public are completely behind plundering other countries and their resources – to the extent of “like time of day” — “This is what we do” — “We are doing them a favor”.
The bipartisan support of “Joe did nothing wrong” is endless…
The consent factory at work..
What a lying sack of smegma you are! A top Obama admin official admits to spending 5 bill to overthrow the legit government of Ukraine and shortly afterwards the VP’s son is scooping up loadsamoney from the beneficiaries of that “most blatant coup in history”? Any president would be derelict in his duty NOT to try to get to the bottom of it.
Punk-assed Corvinus has exceeded himself here, the malfeasance of which he speaks occurred while DT was working on his TV show.
The most arresting aspect of this story: here we finally meet a CIA secret agent with legally protected anonymity, one of the “lives at risk” that Langley always hectors you about. He’s out in the cold, exposed, at stake, in deadly danger every minute, cue intense James Bond music. What does CIA have him doing? Spying on the US head of state to maintain CIA control. That’s what national security means to these scumbags.
CIA is a criminal enterprise. Its sole function is preserving its impunity. CIA is the US regime. The CIA regime must be dismantled by all means.
“A top Obama admin official admits to spending 5 bill to overthrow the legit government of Ukraine…”
Try again.

Love it. In fact the whole Ukraine “most blatant coup in history” was under Biden’s purview, and he’s publicly (at the UN) demeaned and insulted the installed puppet, just to make that clear. But whereas, as Biff said, the American public are completely behind plundering other countries and their resources, it’s hard to know what effect this will have in choosing the next figurehead. Goes for both parties. Trump supporters are apparently delighted at prospect of commandeering oil, minerals, whatever from wherever.
I suggest you try again.
The article states:
That’s pretty much the modern definition of regime change.
Since then, another \$3B has been tossed into the Ukrainian cesspool to keep the post coup govt bought. So, it’s at least \$8B so far, though we’ve yet to learn how much of that went directly into American pockets so we don’t know what the Ukrainian govt itself cost.
People need a new version of socialism, or some similar revolting ideology, to stand up and fight all the corrupt elites around the world.. 😉
“That’s pretty much the modern definition of regime change.”
According to Who/Whom? Remember, the perception was that President Yanukovych prior to his legitimate ouster was establishing closer ties with Russia, much to the chagrin of the general public. President Yanukovych accepted money—\$2 billion out of a \$15 billion package—from Russia, who pressured him to take decisive action against dissenters. A police assault on the rallies that were held to protest against the government was ordered hours after the \$2 billion from Russia was transferred to Ukrainian banks. European nations blamed Russia for exacerbating the violence.
Can you say quid pro quo? Good grrl!
Furthermore, you conveniently left out the context at the end the paragraph–Since 1992, the government has spent about \$5.1 billion to support democracy-building programs in Ukraine, Thompson said, with money flowing mostly from the Department of State via U.S. Agency for International Development, as well as the departments of Defense, Energy, Agriculture and others. The United States does this with hundreds of other countries.
So does “Mother Russia” and China! It is “seed” money to sway influence.
“The article states…”
It was the \$5 billion given to Ukraine WHEN it broke away from the Soviet Union in 1992, NOT given to the Ukraine to incite the rebellion there in 2015. So you are promoting a distorted understanding of the situation here.
“In fact the whole Ukraine “most blatant coup in history” was under Biden’s purview…”
That would be Fake News.
“The American public are completely behind plundering other countries and their resources…”
That is a failing of white people. It’s genetic, you know. Same goes for Russia who gave billions to Ukraine in order to pillage and plunder their economy. Fortunately, the citizens of Ukraine rose up and put their foot down. They control their government, not Putin. Is there anything inherently wrong with the people there deciding for themselves their political destiny?
“Trump supporters are apparently delighted at prospect of commandeering oil, minerals, whatever from wherever.”
Are you an anti-MAGA man?
Everybody but you, apparently.
There aren’t “hundreds of other countries” that have any use for American advice on anything. In fact, there aren’t “hundreds” of other countries on the planet, so the “context” that DoS supplied is anything but useful to a half-awake person. Quite consistent with your thinking it was.
No, as the quote you cited states, it was SINCE 1992. Do you read these things before you cite them?
Neither China nor Russia sponsor political movements, much less violent ones.
So, Saker and his buddy the Moscow spook Tsarev reveal the identity of the”alleged” whistleblower that the whole world has been wating to identify: Alexander Daniluk, or was it the man who allegedly framed Daniluk, a Andrey Bogdan? Or was it perhaps a third person yet undisclosed by Tsarev? Does it matter, they’re all working for Soros, right? 🙂
Then there’s this classic piece of unsubtantiated BS, that acting Ukrainian president Turchynov hired Audrius Butkivicius to come to Kyiv and assasinate 100 Ukrainian Maydan protesters?
A lot of BS here that needs to be reassembled. It’s funny to read and so I’ll be back next month to read the new polished and Moscow approved version that Saker will put out for all of his suckers!
I thought that I was reading Saker’s collumn and I see that it was actually Israel Shamir’s. Is there really any difference, aren’t they both working for Putler? 🙂
“Everybody but you, apparently.”
No, just you and some people. Not everybody.
“There aren’t “hundreds of other countries” that have any use for American advice on anything.”
Despite my hyperbole, it is clear that nations do have use for American advice. Just ask Israel, right? Just ask Trump and his grand bargain with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and Russia. Of course, ask Trump and his quid pro quo in the Ukraine.
“No, as the quote you cited states, it was SINCE 1992.”
Regardless if it was “since” or “when”, the Ukraine became independent in that year.
“Neither China nor Russia sponsor political movements, much less violent ones.”
Not only does both country sponsor political movements (Russia in Syria, China in Africa), they suppress political movements in their home country.

You’re just not that bright…
You’ve provided ample confirmation here that my comment was not overstated at all, however it may have appeared to be at first glance.
95% of products that Ukraine produced Russia bought – nobody wants much of anything from eastern Europe. Russia did not plunder their decrepid economy, they all but kept it taped together. Since the coup, Russia no longer does much business with Ukraine, and the only thing keeping Ukraine’s dying economy alive is loot from the EU.
Just two sides of the same coin known as Demopublicans.
The sheeple actually can’t discern despite the differences being marginal.
“You’ve provided ample confirmation here that my comment was not overstated at all, however it may have appeared to be at first glance.”
Actually, I confirmed that you are a slave to your confirmation bias and prefer to avoid substantive discourse.
“95% of products that Ukraine produced Russia bought – nobody wants much of anything from eastern Europe.”
Do you have a source for your statistic, or are you making it up on the fly? The top export destinations of Ukraine are Russia (\$4.25B), Poland (\$2.69B), Italy (\$2.66B), Turkey (\$2.59B) and Egypt (\$2.46B).
“Russia did not plunder their decrepid economy, they all but kept it taped together.”
Not really. Ukraine is the 50th largest export economy in the world and the 39th most complex economy according to the Economic Complexity Index (ECI). In 2017, Ukraine exported \$46.1B and imported \$51.7B, resulting in a negative trade balance of \$5.57B. In 2017 the GDP of Ukraine was \$112B and its GDP per capita was \$8.67k.
“Since the coup, Russia no longer does much business with Ukraine, and the only thing keeping Ukraine’s dying economy alive is loot from the EU.”
Depends how you define “does much business”. In 2017, Ukraine imported 14.5% of all its imports from Russia.
If true, this would seem to completely blow the lid off the Ukrainian-Biden story. Let’s hope and pray that someone, or many, are working to verify this. Amazing stuff!
All done under orders from Obama and Clinton.
Obama’s direct agent, Susan ……. was filmed on a video still on u tube stating that she had spent \$5 Billion to effect the regime change to acquire the right guys to put in place to deliver the stealing rights.
You KNEW the game was really on when she got 60 Minutes coverage with her and a reporter on a helicopter ride.
The assassination of the 90 innocents in the town square by snipers to blame on the evil Russians was so obvious a false flag, as was the shooting down of the airliner killing another 250 innocents to blame on Russia.
This is terribly written. Where are the editors? The first sentence is a disaster, and it gets worse from there.
Shall we put Shamir in front of the blackboard and have him diagram sentences for 6 hours until he gets it? In his defense, for a non-native speaker of English he writes better than a lot of native speakers.
Wasn’t I clear? The “people” aren’t sheeple. They’re hyenas, vultures, slugs, & etc. carrion cruisers.
You mean Nuland…… Fucktoria Nuland.
Better video is when she and Amb. Pyatt choose puppet gov’t. of Ukraine. (The whole film, “Ukraine on Fire,” is excellent.)
Ukraine on Fire | Victoria Nuland and Geoffrey Pyatt phone call
Try Again.
Here it is from the horse’s mouth ( Nuland the coup meister).
Why is it so difficult to find corroboration of some of the claims in this article? If in October of 2018 the DOJ opened a criminal investigation into \$3 billion abuse of power and embezzlement of funds scheme against 2 people and 3 banks surely this would be reported somewhere? A DOJ press release? A court filing? Bank or SEC filings? Some kind of newspaper? I know the media is crap but this should have some kind of paper trail. A search for names gets some wiki pages but no reporting of the allegations or investigations or trials or convictions to be found.
Because it’s a poorly written “interview” that is more like a loosely patched together pack of lies and BS. I bring up some similar concerns to different allegations in comment #19.
People in Ukraine must have taken her commands real seriouly, when “Yats” (her boy) became the leader? But wasn’t it Poroshenko who was elected president? Drat, Nuland fails again! 🙂
What’s Nuland doing today? Working for Soros somewhere in a deepstate dungeon ?
Great Analysis! The whole damn thing sounds like a spy novel. The Corporate Fascist Military Industrial Intelligence Police State doesn’t care if they do this right out in the open because they fear no one and the Jewish Controlled Media are all part of it.
As far as who got some of the Ukraine aid money, I’d look lower than Kerry or Biden.
This was a Victoria Nuland run coup…..ask her and her zio neocon husband about the money.
About that Ukraine Money
https://www.huffingtonpost.ca/2014/03/07/us-foreign-aid-ukraine_n_4914682.html
WASHINGTON — As the United States readies \$1 billion in loan guarantees to the new government in Ukraine, along with even more aid for reforming elections and cleaning up corruption, one thing is clear: The public is unlikely to know where that money is going for some time, if ever.
Since 1992, the U.S. has sent \$3 billion to \$5 billion in aid to Ukraine, with only cursory public disclosure. The U.S. State Department operates an online database, ForeignAssistance.gov, but names of foreign recipients are often left out, and entire sections are blank. Furthermore, the disclosure often comes long after the money has been distributed.
The spending by U.S. government agencies often flows through for-profit companies, including PACT, Democracy International, and Chemonics International. The path of this money creates another layer obscuring the final source of U.S. foreign aid, as the companies distribute money to non-governmental organizations in Ukraine, or to other countries.
This isn’t for The Hack, an obvious troll who already knew this, but for any other reader who may be interested.
Excellent work as usual Mr. Shamir! 🙂
Is there anything inherently wrong with the people there deciding for themselves their political destiny?
The only people who decided for themselves their political destiny is the people of Crime – 90+% of them voted to join Russia.
Several important political parties were banned by Ukraine in their fake elections. The millions of citizens who fled the country in recent years were not allowed to vote. Those in the liberated east were not allowed to vote.
Currently, people are vanishing in Ukraine and the CIA has a torture center in Mariupol. There are thousands of political prisoners. People are afraid.
In the recent exchange of prisoners between Russian and Ukraine, the media will not say that 22 of the “Russians” released by Ukraine were actually citizens of Ukraine.
Each country releases 35 prisoners in biggest exchange since start of Crimea conflict
They lying and terror continues.
This Mr AB seems to be a real James Bond villain, or rather JB007 himself showing up with his sniper team everywhere (decades and thousands of kilometers apart) where the eevil anglozionist empire needs his services to thwart Righteous Soviet Heroes. /sarcasm
@Gina to the Hague: How right you are – the CIA is not just a criminal enterprise – its part of the shadow government and doesn’t answer to US authorities.
The CIA will be dismantled because it can not be cleaned up due to its gallery of rogue mercenaries engineering wars all over the planet and having billions of dollars available to them to cause havoc even in the US as we see and watch the continuous coup against president Trump.
They do much worse than what many want admit namely the sale and sex trafficking of children including their MK Ultra now called ORION experiments.
Remember Hitler did not lose the war and the US leadership imported many of the Nazis via Operation Paper Clip and provide them with new identities.
Even Dr Mengele aka Angel of Death operated in the US with the CIA teaching them about MK Ultra. Most Americans have no idea nor do they know that old Bush – now diseased – aka as Georg Scherff was their first Manchurian president.
His involvement with the assassination of JFK is no secret.
Having said that it is clear that the coup in Ukraine by the US state department/HRC/Hussein served as their means to antagonize Russia even go so far and using the deep state agent CrowdStrike attempting to frame Russia for the fires that occurred. CrowdStrike quietly removed their accusation against Russia.
That the democrats and no name McCain plundered Ukraine while planting a highly corrupt political leadership in power making their theft of billions of dollars so much easier.
We also know that Burisma is just the tip of the iceberg as stated in this article ergo the apoplectic fury of the democrats against president Trump and his plan/goal to expose these rogues in Ukraine.
Ukraine will bleed into the Pakistani spies/Awan’s, uranium one, Clinton foundation and more.
Meanwhile the FBI has now published all docs about “The Finders” aka CIA and their kidnapping, torture, rape and more of children. I encourage everyone to read these documents.
Why not Kerry or Biden? The whole business stinks to high heavens. What I find revealing and relevant is the fact that it took so long for the shit to hit the fan, not that criminals run and profit from the US government. After all the whole political apparatus is a criminal organization. (See today’s report by the Russian military about the looting of Syria’s oil).
The shocking revelation is that the US criminal gang passing off as a government is unashamedly open about its criminality, without even a pretence for decency. The Epstein’s skulduggery is another recent pointer about the nature of the corrupt beast.
When, shortly after the Maidan coup, it was openly announced that Biden’s son was appointed to the board of that oil company, alarm bells should have rung everywhere in the US media and establishment that something fishy was going on. Yet, nothing was done and the whole scam would run its normal course like many others that do not come to light but for some unforeseeable strike of chance or fate.
I, for one, and without inside knowledge, just using the garden variety critical faculties human beings are endowed with, knew that it was wrong from an ethical point of view even if the deal was an act of kindness performed by lilly white angels, let alone by corrupt politicians.
I wonder whether the Jewish influence is the cause – such brazenly in-your-face contempt for honesty must be the hallmark of those chosen and protected by their gods.
Moral of the story: keep your mouth shout in front of Jews. Never allow a Jew to any position of power. Never hire a Jew as adviser. Even better, just keep them in shtetls. Lots of problems would be avoided.

Mr Corvinus , you can not divide , and neither can you Mr Fack
If , as you say , or agree , Ukraina has a GDP of 112 B ( true ) , having a population left of about 40 million people , the per capita income is not 8,700 dollars as you say ,but 2,700 dollars . Bolivia has 3000 dollars .
When Ukraina left Russia she had a population of about 52 million people and a per capita income similar to Russia ( now Russia has about 11.000 dollars ) .
Now after the loss of Crimea and the Donbass plus the massive emigration to Russia ,Poland , etc… maybe there are about 40 million ukrainians left ( 42 according Ukraina , so that the per capita income could be even lower )
The UE does not want Ukraina , too late , too expensive , we already have too many bums native and foreing in the EU . Maybe the US can offer Ukraina to join the Union .
So the macroeconomic figures seem to show that Ukraina has become Ukraruina ,
Yats had a lot of power for a quite while in Nulandistan.
Nuland got her wish.
This ZUS overseas territory of Ukraine is a great place to capture any ZUS politician to doing the biddings of the biggest ZUSistan of all- ZUSA. It is a like ZUS spiderweb.
Trump got caught in this “foreign ZUS spider web”. He is trying to get out of it as we speak.
The ZUS overseas territory of Ukraine is as “foreign” to the CIA as is Puerto Rico or Alaska, which was bought from Russia in 1867.
Nuland is smiling from ear to ear with this Overseas ZUS spiderweb. All her dreams have come true, except that pesky Crimea that sneaked away.
Nuland forgot to add F-k the USA with her F-k the EU blessing of the ZUS coup in Kiev. The ZUS got it with the Trump Impeach charade.
1. Yatseniuk was head of the largest of the pro-Western parties long before Nuland came onto the scene. He had been leading Yanukovich in presidential polls prior to Maidan.
2. PM has less power than the president in Ukraine. So this man who was leading in presidential polls prior to Nuland’s comment ended up with less power than would be expected.
Given that the Ukraine is called the breadbasket of Europe and has been mentioned as a key agricultural element of Eretz Isreal’s expansionist plans, how about the theft of Ukraine’s farmland to the tune of 5 million acres as of 5 years ago? Oakland Institute’s report of 2015 gave the names of major “investors,” including Lubavitcher front man George Rohr’s control with option to buy of over 1 million acres. There’s also an outfit called Sigma Bleyzer—lots of Ukrainian sounding names plus the Bleyzer brother founders—that bottom feeds off Ukraine land and also happens to bottom feed for “highly leveraged” land buyouts in Texas.
The corruption and hypocrisy in the US is even more stupefying. According to a study by grain dot org, the holier-than-thou endowments of Harvard, Princeton, University of Pennsylvania, Stanford, Yale, Emory, University of Michigan, and others are heavily invested buying land out from under indigenous peoples, adumbrating the coming one-world government and transnational compliance regimes turning the planet into one happy collective with our inbred elites at the helm.

Thanks for a great story ! I’m going to assume that Mr. Shamir and Mr. Tsarev could describe how Monsanto, Cargill, DuPont, Lilly pharma, and others have bought up/off the farmlands and other places and now ship from their very own port in Odessa { guarded by the US Navy }. And of course President Trump has just granted Ukraine – duty free exports to the US. Imagine that ! I’ve been in Crimea since 08 and watched it all go down but never did I think it was this complicated or complexed as it has become. Thanks Unz Rev.
You’re spot on with your post 395. Also notice that Trump just gave Ukraine special status for exporting to the Make America great Again. Of course , with all that bad climate and flooding from those Climate weapons , the US and its friends will need to pay for grain and products that is lost in its exports. Trump is only in it for the money – he won’t do shit for America – other than B S it some more.
Funny, I don’t see many Ukrainians protesting or up in arms over these developments, especialy in Odesa?…Russian soft power propaganda aparatchiks must be asleep at the wheel again? “Duty free exports” to US ports – sounds like a lousy deal for Ukraine. 🙂
I have to laugh when an author singles out one party for “corruption” and totally ignores the other. Both parties in Amerika are filled with traitorous, corrupt, money grubbing elitist.
Anybody remember John Kerry’s bestes buddy John McCain’s involvement in whole Ukraine mess?

No. That’s why Yanukovich was thrown out.
Remember, his party changed the rules so that they would retain control of parliament despite losing the popular vote:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2012_Ukrainian_parliamentary_election#Results
The revolution resulted in the winners of that election coming to power.
Among any party of significance, only the Communist Party was banned. Yanukovich’s defunct Party of Regions changed its name.

This article is useful because it gives a glimpse in the English language into what the disgraced flunkies of the former regime think. But a side effect is that gullible naive people will believe the claims that are made by these clowns sitting in Russia or Israel or wherever..
The Globalist Elite of the past 25 years or so – the Elite of the Anglo-Zionist Empire – is probably the most greedily evil set of rulers in history. Lenin, Stalin, Hitler, Mao are in Hell hoping to be able to study them. Churchill in Hell is boasting that they are truly his heirs who surpassed him.
I.Shamir says: “Top Dems are involved in the plundering of the Ukraine: new names, mind-boggling accounts. “
So, Republicans do not indulge in the exact same activities – is that what you’re implying here? It’s “only” Dems?

“Because they are all ultimately funded via both direct and indirect theft [taxes], and counterfeiting [via central bank monopolies], all governments are essentially, at their very cores, 100% corrupt criminal scams which cannot be “reformed”,”improved”, nor “limited” in scope, simply because of their innate criminal nature.” onebornfree

The demon-rats aka bolsheviks and zionist Israel created the revolution in the Ukraine to loot and steal anything that wasn’t nailed down and this is what the demon-rats aka bolsheviks are good at wrecking and destroying nations.
Look at little Israel! It’s an old and ancient face. It’s been around the world. It’s an eastern and western face with the looks of an Arab and a Jew. It’s an interesting face…
What do you think of all the cowardly American expats who live abroad and write their bullshit from the comfort of a tropical beach? As fucked as America is, the rest of the world will go down with the US, and these expats are going to be eaten alive by angry starving locals once the global debt bomb finally explodes.
Yes, the government of the US is a kleptocracy. Even with a change in presidents to someone in the “opposing” party, nothing is done. Having a GOP president and AG doesn’t seem to matter. These democrat officials are still running around free, maybe because to go after them might also mean bringing down GOP officials.
Corvinus would gladly buy a bag of still warm human shit as long as it was a Soros brand bag. I put trolls like him on ignore, but I still see replies to their comments.

Agree, the zionist bankers who own the FED and the rest of the central banks of the world are setting us up for a crash and no one will escape, read The Protocols of Zion. I live in Montana and even here the effects will be felt, by the way it has been snowing for two days and more on the way and temps in the teens, the only good thing about it is that it should keep the Californians out.
Ownership. Burisma Holdings is owned by Brociti Investments Limited, a Cyprus-based company owned by Ukrainian former politician and businessman Mykola Zlochevsky. Zlochevsky was minister of natural resources under Viktor Yanukovych, the president of Ukraine. Brociti Investments acquired Burisma Holdings in 2011.
Please name me at least one product from Ukraruine that American consumer is buying or would be buying. I go often to delicatessen stores, where I see products from Germany Poland and Hungary and very little from Russia.

Everything wrong in the world is NOT President Trump’s fault.
The U.S. uses “back channels” every day and has done that since BEFORE the republic was founded.
It seems you don’t realize that there was a crooked government BEFORE President Trump was elected or inaugurated.
You were likely a fan of 44.
But the fact is, 44 HAD to know about this and even if he didn’t, he was President, EVERYTHING was HIS responsibility.
THAT is where the blame lies and who should face the consequences.
Actually, the central figure here is N0bama. There is no doubt that he got crooked money from somewhere. How did he leave office as a rich man if he didn’t?
We aren’t a Kleptocracy.
The people have the power to change everything with an Article V Convention of States.
We’re almost to that point.
That’s a very good idea.
At the same time, refuse ALL money from any country that isn’t Ukraine/Russia.
We in The States are pretty tired of paying corrupt countries in the world (except for Israel who we MUST always stand with).
It would be nice if WE got to enjoy our own money once in a while.

Barr’s fake investigation has turned up some – Gasp! – bad apples™. Ratfucking political enemies at home and abroad has always been CIA’s mission and core competence. But when they fuck up and get caught at it, some loser has to get his wrist slapped. And Brennan’s the most pathetic loser of all.

He’s going to make him do a lap around the beads and whip him good with the little whippy thing. Then they’ll get on their knees together and pray to their statute of Superior General Adolfo Pachon cornholing an altar boy. CIA will keep on crushing their political enemies with impunity… until we go and pull their building down.

You wrote “much to the chagrin of the general public”. But the public is divided in Ukraine. That’s the major point! You seem to be a partisan of one side in that conflict.
It would be impossible to convey just how appropriate it is, that your handle includes the word Hack. You are that.
Israel Shamir doesn’t go all the way.
The deadly mix includes the “international.” ZOG and Cabala are usurers and rent seekers.
Their ideology is not for humanity in general, but for their in-group and sayanim followers.
If one looks close at international credit at debt, then the underlying mechanism becomes clear.
People are hypothecated with debt when associated bank credit is created simultaneously. This also happens at at national levels with public debt. The debt instrument is on-sold into “international markets” and the credit (as pseudo money) is made international. The dollar is not U.S. legal dollars, but instead is Federal Reserve Notes. FRN’s have been made international, and hence can be spent in Ukraine, where channels are opened for siphoning off rents, as in the case of Biden and the DNC.
Moneys true nature is law. Never let your money extend past your law, which in turns means your national borders.
Nazi Germany traded internatioinally using Schacht’s trading banks. This trading scheme isolated national debt instruments within the trading banks, and also isolated the money flows. For example, if Germany demanded Tin from Burma, then Burmese were paid in Kyat. When Burma ordered goods from Germany, German workers were paid in Reichsmarks. Is it no wonder the “international” went berserk over Nazi Germany? The international couldn’t run their crime schemes and make illicit profits on Germany.
Keyne’s Bancor scheme would also work, where trading nations pay for goods exchange in an accounting unit that relates only to goods in transit, and also signals for national exchange rate adjustment.
In other words, the Jew has a headlock on people’s brain-space, and they don’t know how to think.
The money problem is the central problem, and all other is merely knock on effects. Biden and the DNC and our (((friends))) would have hard time running their international crime syndicates without “international” money they control.
The deep state deadly mix of spooks and politicians are all closely related phenomenon. For example, Petrodollars would recycle from Saudi and Qatar through CIA to purchase weapons from MIC. Saudi in turn is not allowed to have their own Sovereign money by virtue 1973 Saudi/Kissinger agreement. Saudi’s are required to price oil in dollars, and recycle dollar savings into TBills (debt instruments held in western private corporate stock owned banks).
Saudi are boyeez of the International since MI6 “Lawrence of Arabia” coup, and subsequent moves by the then deep state. The deep state is closely allied with international banking and their “credit,” which they attempt to make above national laws, while simultaneously abusing the nation’s peoples.

This really is a birdbrain article.
‘Oh its all the Dems ‘ says Shamir..lol
While its true the Dems are stupid…as are the Repubs…..they aren’t too good at heist’
If they were that 9 billion that disappeared from Iraq would be in their real estate.
What they both do is give our tax money to whatever flavor of the year country the neos and zios are hating on ..or want to ‘own’.
Once our billions are dispersed ….’friends of’ the neos and zios swoop in to goggle up and nibble off the money thru this and that ‘program’ and ‘contracts’ …..and for some odd reason always ends up in some Jewish oligarchs Cyprus bank account.
Ukraine is nothing but a Russian Bolsheviks ‘lite’ play.
Ihor Kolomoisky, the mafia oligarch, owned Prez Zelenskyy’s TV station and greased his way into office . Kolomoisky had fled to Israel and Switzerland after looting his bank but has now returned to the Ukraine to get his bank back. While he was in exile Zelenskyy often flew to visit him in Geneva and Tel Aviv, according to the Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project.
Zelenskyy, who used a bulletproof Mercedes during his campaign that was registered to a business associate of both his and Kolomoisky, has denied claims that he is a “puppet” of Kolomoisky….lol.
Just wait…you aint seen nothing yet….more corruption dead ahead..
So, what’s eating you, Mr. “Doctor”?
Hm…maybe the reason none of these people has been prosecuted is because the right wing media that you consume is lying to you. You have to have actual proof in a courtroom.

“Mr Corvinus , you can not divide…”
Here is the source. Apparently, it cannot divide.
https://oec.world/en/profile/country/ukr
“So the macroeconomic figures seem to show that Ukraina has become Ukraruina…”
According to Who/Whom?
“You wrote “much to the chagrin of the general public”. But the public is divided in Ukraine.”
Are you sure? In February 2014, 328 of 447 members of the Ukrainian parliament (MPs)—or about 73%—voted to “remove Viktor Yanukovych from the post of president of Ukraine” on the grounds that he was unable to fulfill his duties. Were not these members representing the public, i.e. their constituents?
Your articles are great but definitely too long
YOU find out , look for reliable offcial world sources , seek the truth , it is your problem
Your colored graphics are ukropropaganda , they include in the map of Ucrania Crimea and the Donbass , which now are Russian . By this way of thinking Mexico could include in his map Texas , California , Arizona , New Mexico, Nevada , Colorado ,Utah etc….
You have proved not only that you can not divide but also that you are unable to find relevant data from official realiable sources , go back to school Corvidus .
And your usual pathetic silly tricky questions ” according to who/whom ” ? are ridiculous . Well according to Vladimir Putin , and according to my cojones .
For Unz Review this piece either represents spot on incredible news and information or complete bust.
If you want to enjoy your money get away from the Jew’s as every country in the world has done at one time or the other, otherwise all that will happen in the world is rage and ruin while the Jews clap for more.!!!
Why must we love Jews or any people unconditionally? People should like or dislike another people based on observation and experience. For example, if someone spends time in Iran and comes away with generally negative impression of Iranians as people and culture, so what? Then, the same rule should apply to Jews. Why must we always pretend Jews are perfect and pure as snow? Maybe some people have good reason to dislike Jews based on historical experience. For example, Palestinians lost their land to Zionist imperialists. Why should they like Jews? Millions of Arabs died in wars for Israel cooked up by Neocons.
Heavily Jewish Hollywood has given us tons of Asian villains, Arab terrorist villains, and Russians as bad guys. Hollywood often features blonde and blue eyed people as neo-nazi ‘white supremacist’ subhuman scum. The media(not controlled by Eskimos) spew hatred toward Iranians, Arabs, Muslims, Russians, and ‘deplorable’ White Christians all the time. It seems it’s a-okay for Jews in media to spread hatred, hysteria, and paranoia about Russians and Iranians.
Jews are not god. Jews are not holy. We don’t have to worship Jews, just like we don’t demand that others worship or obey us. If a people have bad experience with Jews in general, they have every right to feel anti-Jewish. After all, many Jews harbor anti-German and Anti-Russian sentiments because of their troubled histories and experiences with Germans and Russians. Okay, fine. But did it ever occur to Jews that maybe they’ve done things that deeply upset OTHER peoples and that’s why some people have negative views of Jews. Can any honest person say Palestinians have no reason to hate Jewish Power?
How naive! The idea that the gang of criminals in the elite would ever be taken down by something like this is laughable. They’ve populated and corrupted the judicial system and the media with their cronies; they would never allow themselves to even be put in the spotlight over this, much less held accountable.
“YOU find out , look for reliable offcial world sources , seek the truth , it is your problem”
Actually, telling the truth about the Ukrainian economy currently is not a problem.
https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2019-08-15/ukraine-s-economy-enjoys-a-hopeful-moment
“Your colored graphics are ukropropaganda…”
Not quite. The source I cited is the Observatory of Economic Complexity, a tool that allows users to quickly compose a visual narrative about countries and the products they exchange.
“You have proved not only that you can not divide but also that you are unable to find relevant data from official realiable sources , go back to school Corvidus”
Do you enjoy playing a Russian bot? The source I cited is quite reliable. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Observatory_of_Economic_Complexity
“Well according to Vladimir Putin , and according to my cojones”.
Which, in the end, amounts to a hill of beans. Care for some borscht, comrade?
“Lol, Are you also a flat earth theory fan?”
Next time, try to address with substance what I said. Perhaps you need a primer on how to engage in discourse?
Well, personally I don’t have a clue whether the remarkable claims of that Ukrainian fellow are correct or not. Frankly, I’d never heard of him before.
I still read the print edition of the New York Times every morning, and lots of the stuff they publish is so totally ridiculous I don’t believe a single word of it, especially about the Russiagate/Ukrainegate lunacy of the last couple of years.
In one of his podcasts a few months back, Prof. Stephen Cohen described the total “Sovietization” of the American MSM. And being an eminent Soviet scholar, he wasn’t using that term in a favorable manner.
So all things considered, that Ukrainian guy may or may not be reliable…but I’d have to see he’s probably at least as reliable as anything published in the NYT or the rest of the American MSM…
“Everything wrong in the world is NOT President Trump’s fault.”
Except I did not directly nor indirectly make that statement. But I do appreciate your (weak) effort at a strawman.
“The U.S. uses “back channels” every day and has done that since BEFORE the republic was founded.”
Typical female response–if others do it, then so can I. Except the “back channel” was other than necessary. All Trump had to do was request that the Ukrainian government conduct an investigation into Biden’s son, rather than dangle an aid package as bait for compliance.
“It seems you don’t realize that there was a crooked government BEFORE President Trump was elected or inaugurated.”
According to Who/Whom?
“You were likely a fan of 44.”
It’s a tie between Jerry West and George Gervin.
“But the fact is, 44 HAD to know about this and even if he didn’t, he was President, EVERYTHING was HIS responsibility.”
Not a fact, just speculation on your part. Shouldn’t you be making cookies or some babies, “SmartGirl”?
If you’re really interested enough to chime in about the validity of his claims, why not google some of them in (or some other methods that you’re aware of) and see if there’s anything to them? You’re quite good at this sort of thing and it shouldn’t take much more than 5-10 minutes to do so.
This was the rump Rada AFTER the coup of 22 February 2014. Not quite the constitutional government. This vote was held under the guns of the gunmen of the Maidan. How legitimate is that? The Ukrainian public at the time included those who lived in the Donbass, Crimea and Odessa. The Crimea seceded, the Donbass rose in revolt and the people of Odessa were repressed following the murder of anti-Maidan protesters at the Trade Union building on 5 May 2014. There was no unanimity of support for the Maidan in Ukraine. And that is the plain and simple truth.
What’s it like to hobnob around within the public sphere that does believe it?
More self-important delusions. America is an isolated little country that thinks it is the whole world. It is not. The empire is overstretched and it will eventually eat itself(just like every other empire) leaving the rest to fend for themselves(just like every other non-empire). A little planning goes a long way(I don’t keep money in U.S. dollars). Better days ahead, yet I’m still banking on one big fat asteroid to woke the future.
Wait, is this satire or just straight up propaganda? The actual scum Russian allianced Ukrainians are the non-corrupt ones? Meanwhile trump’s son-in-law’s family pockets \$100 million from the Saudis in exchange for troops?
Fack , Corvidus , what a couple of disgusting illiterate trolls that can not divide , that can not do basic arithmetics .
Read the school basics morons ,don`t read complicate things that you can not understand . You are doing a very poor and counterproductive trolling work . What can you expect of people can can not do basic arithmetics , that do not have a mimimum level of culture , of sense of humor .
Comrade ? , I am proamerican , pro west , what do you say , morons . You cram your borshst and your beans up your culo . With friends like you America does not need ennemies .
So do you see the following factors as a slow chipping away at the hegemony of the corrupt”international”?: China’s refusal to allow the international banking syndicate a foothold in their growing economy, combined with their willingness and eagerness to buy oil from Iran (eventually perhaps Saudi Arabia) in Yuan or other currencies, the establishment of the AIIB, Russia, China and other countries promoting trade in their own currencies or goods (barter), these resistance countries seeking to establish a parallel international payment system to compete with (or escape) the SWIFT system. As the US swings wildly with sanctions against a myriad of nations, won’t those nations eventually find ways to trade and exchange in solidarity against the “international”? And as the economies of the developing countries grows along with their international clout, won’t it become increasingly clear that the current international financial system is a house of cards, with the debtor nations of the west unable to ever pay down their debt and less and less able to even service it?
What then? WWIII?
Well said. You could have added the mass murder that continues to go unpunished. The limits to our impunity remain elusive as ever.
US, for better or worse, controls the fate of many countries moron. Its why vassal states have such a hard time breaking free from Uncle Sam. And I don’t think the locals will like the sight of a wealthy American in their midst while they are living like shit.
Agree, nothing short of a French style revolution will fix the corruption of our entire political system.
It’s a strange world after all. 🙂
Would you buy a used car from these honest looking faces? How about a pack of lies fabricated on the fly? Even the dog in the background knows when to turn its back on these hooligans! 🙂 .

You are so right!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Population of all world is getting more and more sloppy, irresponsible, and just all stupid.
How come all these I.Q. researchers do not notice that.
There is only one explanation.
They also are getting more and more sloppy irresponsible and just plain stupid.
Hello SheilaG
The circumstantial evidence therefore ties Burisma through the Sofocleous firm to Kolomoisky.
John Helmer begs to differ. I have a lot more faith in John than in the MSM. The fact is that every effort is being made to keep the name of Kolomoisky out of this affair.
It is very difficult to determine true ownership due to the chain of companies involved – and the layers of lawyers and accountants on the boards of these companies and their domicile in offshore places.
Personally, my money is on Kolomoisky. 🙂
Because the IQ researchers only care for the grants for their research and statistics which have to be done according to the ” scientific method ” ( wich will exclude common sense , evidence ) .Researches only care for grants and publications
If some clinicians , or teachers , or any people , say what is obvious , just what you say , nobody in the management , academia , politics or media will pay any attention to them . And they can even be marginated or even punished for not following the ” scientific method ” , for being politically incorrect .
Quos Deus vult perdere prius dementat – “those whom God wishes to destroy he first drives them stupid ”
Yatseniuk was head of the largest of the pro-Western parties long before Nuland came onto the scene. He had been leading Yanukovich in presidential polls prior to Maidan.
This statement is entirely misleading. They banned all important opposition parties and they shut down all the media that did not support them. No less than 3 local TV stations in Kharkov alone.
Banned political parties in Ukraine
The fact is that the USA has been working for decades on undermining Ukraine and its economy.
Personally, I believe – but I have no proof – that the Americans carried out the Chernobyl operation. There were 5 complexes of nuclear power stations in Ukraine at that time. Chernobyl was by far the closest to the Russian and Belarussian borders.
Is that by chance? I don’t believe so.
Gorbachev blamed Chernobyl for the collapse of confidence in the leadership of the Soviet Union so the CIA certainly had the means, opportunity and motivation.
{Would you buy a used car from these honest looking faces?}
Well, don’t know about a used car, but who would buy a used country from this guy?
Heil Hitler!
Sieg Heil!
Yes, she might be. I’m waiting to see what she posts that is actually on topic.
LOL. Well, my unfortunate impression is that just about everyone in Ukraine politics is a crook of one sort or another.
But as various people have pointed out, the undeniable fact that the Jewish Neocons and the Jewish Oligarchs are such close allies of the Ukraine Neo-Nazis does tend to raise all sorts of dark suspicions about the “conventional narrative” of World War II…
I would say that we are at least three generations past that point. Today, an Article V Convention would surely result in a total overturn of the Constitution, not of the government. The reason is that the media has such a stranglehold on so many Americans that whatever they announce as the result of such a convention would be meekly accepted by a majority of people.
I think that a solution will be forced upon us soon enough.
“Fack , Corvidus , what a couple of disgusting illiterate trolls that can not divide , that can not do basic arithmetics .”
I would the say the person who is illiterate here is you. Use spell check. And, no, I am not trolling, as I am a regular commentator here. You haven’t even attempted to refute anything I said. Do you need a primer on discourse?
“I am proamerican , pro west…”
It’s either-or, friend.
All you did here is provide a video link without the requisite context and analysis.
Try again.
Don’t stop here and keep on going. I’m a big fan and read everything you put out (no matter how long it is). Your ideas about the Jewish neocons and Jewish oligarchs would be an interesting read…and rewriting WWII history to fit the narrative to boot? YOWZAH!
Corvidus , just divide : 112.000, 000.000 dollars ( ukro GDP ) among the ( official ) 42,000.000 ukranians , it gives a result of a yearly per capita income for ukranians of 2,666.6 dollars a year , not 8,670 dollars as you say . Stick to the figures , to the facts .
Probably I speak more languages and seen more countries than you , you are the one who seems to be an illiterate de cojones , my friend .
And your ” It’s either-or ” expression , and context , shows that you have difficulty integrating concepts , it is a white or black point of view which can not understand the grays . Christ said that either you are with me or against me , but only Christ could say that , I hope you don`t have a Messiah complex .
Well , my friend , anyway it is interesting , and fun , those interchanges of opinions which are made possible by the magnificent and uncommon web of Unz ( and his patience with us )
All the best , greetings .
Is any of this verifiable? Where did you get all this?
It’s absolutely plausible to me, but I wonder how can I can get corroboration.
“Stick to the figures , to the facts”
Indeed.

“Probably I speak more languages and seen more countries than you…”
Probably not.
“And your ” It’s either-or ” expression , and context , shows that you have difficulty integrating concepts”
Actually, you are either pro-American or pro-West. Make a choice.
“I still read the print edition of the New York Times every morning, and lots of the stuff they publish is so totally ridiculous I don’t believe a single word of it, especially about the Russiagate/Ukrainegate lunacy of the last couple of years.”
No, it’s because YOU want to make it appear to be ridiculous in order to conform to your already preexisting notions. We all do it, just some more than others are smitten with their confirmation bias.
Read Seth Abramson’s two books on the subject. Mr. Sailer clearly has perused that work. That is why he avoids substantially NOTICING that topic. Even he deep down knows Trump’s goose is cooked.
“but I’d have to see he’s probably at least as reliable as anything published in the NYT or the rest of the American MSM…”
Because that’s what you HAVE to say.
She said it and she did it.
5 billion is FED fiat money made out of nothing. So you are right that it is no big deal to Nuland, the FED and the Neocons. It is just grease for the palms to get this thing “glued together” – Nuland’s words.
Ukraine is not an independent nation anymore, it is an ZUS overseas territory.
It is a great ZUS spider web to keep our politicians on the ZUS party line.
Trump is finding this out.
She blessed the coup with these words – F–k the EU, she forgot to add F–k the USA, too.
I could not have said it better. Superb summary. Send that everywhere!
Fascinating theories, but nearly all of the allegations are unproven. E.g. I could find no open-source/public information that Oleksandr Danyliuk is wanted for arrest in the US.
“Fascinating theories” or just crackpot ones to play to the Putinbot fruitcakes?…
No, every statement is true. The largest of the 3 pro-Western parties was led by Yatseniuk.
And he was leading Yanukovich in the presidential polls.
All this was before the Americans were caught on tape saying they preferred Yatsniuk to lead.
And yet, the fact is that Poroshenko, rather than Yatseniuk, ended up leading the country.
The banned the Communist Party. It was the only important opposition party. The other ones on your list had no more 1% support.
You do realize that many of Ukraine’s media companies are owned by pro-Russian politicians?
Look, Hillary is also a Nazi:
And not one mention of the name Victoria Nudleman ? And its not The Ukraine, just Ukraine, You dont say The Texas. Step it up a little Shamir
I am not American and no Trump fan but even I can smell the stench of Democratic corruption and criminality. Only an idiot or a criminal would support that bunch of crooks. The fact is that the legitimate Ukrainian government was overthrown by a CIA coup (color-revolution). The fact is that Ukraine has the lowest wages in the EU after 30 years of Soros “intervention”and the highest rate of corruption despite George Soros “restructuring” the justice department (LOL) and appointing two (yes you heard that right) TWO anti-corruption bodies (LOL).
The fact is all the democrat “kids” Bidden, Pelosi’s son and John Kerry’s kid were in the Ukraine and got good well paid jobs. And what about Uranium-1 etc. etc??
I could go on but what do I know? I am just a foreigner. And you have got your head stuck up your ass.
I wouldn’t buy a used car from this looser either. But am I to understand that you would from either Shamir or Tsarev as depicted in in my comment #110? I’m not following your “LOL” reaction to my comment?
And its not The Ukraine….
Did you change your name, just so you could make this stupid comment again? Maybe you’re also Bettine the Grammar Nazi. Sheesh.
It is a war crime to “plunder” another countries natural resources according to several treaties signed by the US.

“Yats is the guy” was Nuland’s calling card for the Neo-notsee thugs to do their job on 2.22.14.
Would the Neo-notsee thugs do their job if Nuland’s said — “Porky is the guy”?
Nuland had to “glue this “thing” to together”.
Nuland blessed the coup with “F–k the EU”. Under her breathe she most “likely” said “F–k the USA” also.
Nuland is smiling from ear to ear now with Gen. Vindman doing his job with this Overseas ZUS territory.
The United States, The Netherlands, the Dominican Republic, etc.
Saying “The” is not a sin.
The Borderlands is what the Ukraine means in Slavic Languages.
A native Slavic speaker would say “The” for the Ukraine for this reason.
It is nothing personal or a “sin”.
It was a very funny comment. They do look like sketchy used car salesmen.
OTOH, it is not the Denmark or the Switzerland.
There aren’t articles in Slavic languages.
And despite that, the guy never became president but had to settle for PM (a much less powerful position in Ukraine) which is what he would have done no matter what if the pro-western parties came to power because he was already head of the largest pro-western party in Ukraine.
“Ukraine is not an independent nation anymore, it is a ZUS overseas territory.”
— Please ponder on this fact-based statement. … Ponder again.
The focus of Nuland was the “eyes on the prize”. She wanted Ukraine as an overseas ZUS territory. She got it. “Yats is the guy” was just one of the many things she said in the conversation with Pyatt.
https://consortiumnews.com/2016/04/11/yats-is-no-longer-the-guy/
In English, we use “the”. A Slavic speaker may not use “the” in Slavic languages. In English, we do use “the” for the borders, the low lands, the states, etc. A Slavic speaker knowing what Ukraine means would say The Borderlands for the Ukraine. It is not a grave sin.
I thought that you might be casting some aspersion on that commment, glad you found it to be funny.
I was hoping to get your opinion on what I find to be one of the weakest points that our two clowns try to peddle within this piece. That supposedly acting Ukrainian president Turchynov hired Audrius Butkivicius to come to Kyiv and assasinate 100 Ukrainian Maydan protesters? I couldn’t find anything at all to substantiate this assertion. As I recall, Turchynov was a bible thumping Evangelical Christian of sorts, a Christian preacher, who also happened to be a Ukrainian patriot too. The whole thing smacks of too much vodka and Baltic sprats to me…
Comment #144 addressed to AP.
The same can be said about the ZUS!
#146 not #144 addresssed to AP. Drat, not enough coffee yet, where are my reading glasses? 🙂
The US military is innundated with JEW UKRAINIANS and Leprechaun boobs and old stocker sonofabitches smelling loot and power from the overseas antics of the rancid American Empire.
Frank Lautenberg was a JEW US Senator who dishonestly dragged a huge amount of Soviet Jews back to the USA. The USA should never have allowed even one single JEW to infiltrate the USA from anywhere after WWII, and especially from any area or territory controlled by the Soviets. The JEW/WASP ruling class of the American Empire has lost any and all credibility. The JEW/WASP ruling class of the American Empire must be removed from power.
Alexander Vindman is a JEW from the Ukraine who attacked the USA by falsely accusing Trump of a deal that was written out in a transcript.
The evil shyster rats who control the media are a lot like this US military dirtbag Alexander Vindman.
Max Boot and Alexander Vindman are JEWS from that part of the world who want to keep their anti-Christian nonsense going on in the USA.
Get Out Of My Country Now! Dammit!
“5 billion is FED fiat money made out of nothing.”
I do see the point that our currency, as well as the world’s money supply, is based upon an illusion. But we’re not in Kansas anymore, Toto. That’s the way of the our current global economy.
“Ukraine is not an independent nation anymore, it is an ZUS overseas territory.”
According to Who/Whom?
“Trump is finding this out.”
Except he has Jews in his administration who is doing Israel’s bidding, right? So he’s not really “finding out”.
“She blessed the coup with these words – F–k the EU, she forgot to add F–k the USA, too.”
Except it wasn’t a coup.
Everyone knows it was coup except for you. You are in denial.
https://consortiumnews.com/2016/04/11/yats-is-no-longer-the-guy/
US coups in Latin America often used the military.
The preferred method these days is the “color” revolution. Ukraine was a recent victim to this.
This Ukraine coup woke me. I fell for the war on terror stuff. I couldn’t figure why the US was in Ukraine since we “really” had so many problems with “terror” and the Middle East. Nuland added the Neo-Nazi thug theme to her witches brew. That really woke me up to another level. Nuland, a Jewish American, does not even believe in the Big 6. She revived Nazism in a large European nation in the 21st century. Obviously, she does not believe in it. Then why should anyone else believe it anymore too.
Soon after that, I looked into nine eleven. That was an Israel first game too. Thanks to Nuland, a lot of people woke in the last five years.
All this corruption and evil, but you know damn well Trumptard white trash will still point the finger at Asians, Muslims, Mexicans before he can even muster the courage or the brains to call out the Zionist kikes fucking him up the ass. Keep on overdosing on opiates, you surely won’t be missed white trash.
French intelligence is concerned by all the Chinese women marrying sailors in the port where they dock their nuclear subs. Look at Ilhan Omar in the US. 85% of Somali refugee claims are fraudulent. Her family participated in genocide. Yet she sits in Congress.
Chapeau, you have quite a clear view of what is going on in in these issues.
Don ‘t however waste your time or energy on this brainless fool Corvinus.
AJM “Mensa” qualified since 1973, airborne trained US army vet, and pro jazz performer.
Why so hard on Corvinus? Although some of his views may not follow the heard mentality often exhibited here, he seems reasonable and always is willing to defend his views. Listening to some hot Eddie Palmieri this morning, specifically his “listen here’ album, what a gem! If you follow the man and his music and you could recommend some other of his albums, please do, his output is outrageously long (I realize that he’s been around for a while).
“Everyone knows it was coup except for you. You are in denial.”
Not everyone.
https://www.polygraph.info/a/ukrainian-maidan-was-not-a-coup/29098965.html
“Soon after that, I looked into nine eleven. That was an Israel first game too.”
I see your back to your blame the Jew fetish.
So many facts to point to Israel firsters as the main culprits for nine eleven.
Christopher Bollyn and Laurent Guyenot both have a lot evidence of this.
2003 attack on Iraq started on Purim
2011 attack on Libya started on Purim.
Even nine eleven was on a Jewish Holiday.
It was Elul 23: The dove is sent a second time, and returns with an olive leaf in its beak.
All planes grounded in the US on that day for two days.
Elul 25- two days later is the first day of creation. All the planes in the US came back in service.
This coup in Ukraine is a Zion first thing too.
Porky was half Jewish. He had a Jewish Prime Minister.
Zeli is half Jewish on his mother’s side. So, he is considered Jewish. His Prime Minister is the same Jewish guy from Porky’s time,
ZUS Ukraine is the only nation in the world outside Israel that has a Jewish President and a Jewish Prime Minister. The Zion Ukraine does not trust even Shabbos goys to have the puppet job at top in their new territory.
“Except it wasn’t a coup.”
— Only a loyal reader/listener of MSM can expose such naivete and ignorance.

Ukrainian Congressional Committee of America (YUCCA) is a miserable tool of ziocons. http://www.softpanorama.org/Skeptics/Political_skeptic/Neocolonialism/Debt_enslavement/ukraine.shtml
Why single out Dems? Corrupt operators of all political persuasions are plundering Ukraine hand over fist. Non-corrupt actors avoid Ukraine like a plague: it is like shit, dirties anyone who touches it. IMF and EU do their level best to facilitate this plunder: they demand the laws that would allow the sale of timber and land. In fact, timber was exported illegally for years now, Ukraine lost about half of its forests already. IMF is preparing to demand the sale of Ukrainian railways and ports. Considering current state of these assets (acknowledged even by Ukrainian infrastructure minister), everything will go at fire sale prices. So, “democratizers” do in Ukraine what they always do everywhere: steal everything they can and ruin whatever they cannot steal.
True that Mr Hack. Yet we the people again seem satisfied to argue the minutiae rather than recognise how we are constantly played. The behaviour of lies and deceit coming from political figures is the same as that of a child, so call it what it is or get played.
An additional vignette showing how “business” is done in Ukraine. Recently Ukrainian development minister Timofiy Milovanov said that since 1991 state-owned land in Ukraine contracted by ~50% (from 1.3 million hectares to ~600-700,000 hectares), with the rest being stolen via various schemes.
And Tsarev and his promoter Shamir aren’t political figures playing everybody who reads this crummy bit of journalism? Do a fact check on anything that is written herein…
“All funding to Ukraine needs to be put in check…”
…until Vickie Nuland can stand with both feet on the ground and piss over a 5 strand barbed wire fence. There. I like that idea better.
You do yourself no service endlessly distorting reality in the interests of Power.
Reading your comments one after the other this afternoon I was reminded of an excerpt from “Mein Kampf” where Hitler perfectly summed up the dishonest conversational practices of people like you. I’d like to share it:
“The more I argued with them, the more I came to know their dialectic. First they counted on the stupidity of their adversary, and then, when there was no other way out, they themselves simply played stupid. If all this didn’t help they pretended not to understand, or, if challenged, they changed the subject in a hurry, quoted platitudes, which if you accepted them, they immediately related to entirely different matters, and then, if again attacked, gave ground and pretended not to know what you were talking about.
Whenever you tried to attack one of these apostles, your hand closed on a jelly-like slime which divided up and poured through your fingers, but in the next moment collected again. But if you really struck one of these fellows so telling a blow that, observed by the audience, he couldn’t help but agree, and if you believed this had taken you at least one step forward, your amazement was great the next day. The Jew had not the slightest recollection of the day before, he rattled off his same old nonsense as though nothing at all had happened, and, if indignantly challenged, affected amazement; he couldn’t remember a thing, except that he had proved the correctness of his assertions the previous day.
Sometimes I stood there thunderstruck.
I didn’t know what to be more amazed at: the agility of their tongues or their virtuosity at lying. Gradually I began to hate them.”
Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, Ch 3.
You sir, are “the jelly-like slime” he was referring to.
It seems that you have been trying to defend the loose Banderites and ziocons alike. Your country of Ukraine has been made, figuratively speaking, into a “woman of ill repute.” Instead of grieving or protesting you amuse yourself by smearing the messengers, Tsarev and Shamir.
Why don’t you give a thought to this statement? — “…since 1991 state-owned land in Ukraine contracted by ~50%, with the rest being stolen via various schemes.” https://longreads.tni.org/the-land-question-ukraine/ Ukrainian land has been primed for grand robbery – “Ukraine’s Ban on Selling Farmland Is Choking the Economy:” https://www.bloomberg.com/businessweek

This is two words, not one.
You illustrate your critic’s point that your arguments are bad by throwing up a smoke screen you hope will distract your audience by bringing up something unrelated, in this case the bloody shirt of anti-semitism. Well, at least in this case you responded to your critic. I’ve noted that often you ignore good points against you by pretending the points haven’t been made.
You’re not very good at this, you know.
Show me, where exactly have I defended either Banderites or Ziocons? I have neither the time, nor desire to engage in any discussion of your own private conspiracy theories or other paranoiac theatrical fantasies. So far, at this thread, I’ve only limited my comments to the veracity of the opinions of Shamir and Tsarev. Obviously, you’re not up to this task, so fly away cuckoo bird! 🙁
Did you REALLY believe your ad hominum, sack sack rebuttal to Hitler’s prescient explanation for your psychotic assaults on truth could make any difference to those of us who actually know what’s going on?
You’re not only a smug serial liar – you’re also embarrassingly stupid. Perfect hasbarabot material…
Who needs holobiz denial when the leading zionists collaborate and arm Ukrainian Banderites? It is incredible that you forgot, again, the Kagans clan’s wholehearted support for self-proclaimed neo-Nazi in Ukraine. Moreover, your beloved Jewish State has been arming the neo-Nazi with Israel-made rifles whereas your beloved ADL of Jewish thugs has been protecting the neo-Nazi thugs from any criticism.
The Chalupas and other profiteering “patriots” have joined their efforts with Banderites and zionists such as Alprovitch, Kagans, and Kolomoisky to “liberate” Ukraine from “pernicious Russian influence.” Well, these joined labors resulted in smothering Ukraine. The hapless neo-nazi “patriots” have been nothing but a useful tool for ziocons in their Lebensraum in Ukraine.
You attack the “veracity of the opinions of Shamir and Tsarev” by denying the cooperation between Banderites and ziocons. Don’t be shy — these are your words, “private conspiracy theories or other paranoiac theatrical fantasies.”
Here are the links (reposted) that contradict your beliefs in the immaculate origin of the coup in 2014.

Where have I “denied the “cooperation between Banderites and ziocons” or conversely, where have I endorsed such statements? These are all pet peeves of yours that I have not commented upon – you’re clearly living in a self induced fantasy world – get some help before you end up on a park bench somewhere in Moscow drinking cheap Russian beer and eating dryed out fish (yuck!). 🙂
“You illustrate your critic’s point that your arguments are bad by throwing up a smoke screen you hope will distract your audience by bringing up something unrelated, in this case the bloody shirt of anti-semitism.”
I wasn’t offering up an argument, since there was one not to be made. Your comrade in arms made a comment about my apparent “dishonest conversational practices” by way of a Hitler quotation, when there was no evidence offered on that charge. I responded with effective rhetoric.
“I’ve noted that often you ignore good points against you by pretending the points haven’t been made.”
In what past conversations on this fine blog? Please offer specifics. I mean, if you are assuredly positive on your point, then bring it forward.
“You’re not very good at this, you know.”
You’re right. I’m GREAT at this.
“Moreover, your beloved Jewish State has been arming the neo-Nazi with Israel-made rifles whereas your beloved ADL of Jewish thugs has been protecting the neo-Nazi thugs from any criticism.”
LOL. I am Goy, Pure Goy. German, Dutch, and Polish heritage. Why is it that when I expose weakness in your position that you automatically press the “anyone who opposes me is a Jew or Jew supporter or Zionist” button?
“Did you REALLY believe your ad hominum, sack sack rebuttal to Hitler’s prescient explanation for your psychotic assaults on truth could make any difference to those of us who actually know what’s going on?”
Except it wasn’t a rebuttal. I made an observation, one that you clearly took offense to because it hit the mark. Moreover, the one who is skipping down the lane the ad hominem is YOU, as somehow you have the magic gift of determining who is and who is engaging in a “psychotic assault on truth”. Although I did suspect that calling you out would generate your knee-jerk response.
“You’re not only a smug serial liar – you’re also embarrassingly stupid. Perfect hasbarabot material…”
Why, because I implied you are a clear admirer of Hitler? That’s fine if you are, just own it. Again, I ask, are there Jews under your bed or in your closet?

@Covinus
Ukraine historically was part of Russia. In fact Kiev, at one time, was Russia’s capitol.
Ukraine has NEVER EVER been able to support itself and it never will without the consistent aid of Russia. You write a great deal of nonsense none of which is based on any evidence, nor any familiarity with the country’s history.
The \$5 Billion is stated very clearly during a taped speech by Victoria Nuland. It was for the specific reason of regime change. WE created Maidan and Victoria Nuland, on a phone conversation to Geoffrey Pryatt, US Governor to Ukraine discussed in detail WHO Washington wanted to see running Ukraine on their behalf. It was that conversation that ended with “F*ck the EU”.
It was Washington’s aim to wrestle Ukraine out from under the control of Russia and control IT in order to stick it to Russia. They never cease to speak of Russian aggression while WE surround Russia with American bases. So not having learned anything from the past, Washington keeps resorting to creating chaos, blame Russia while they rob Ukraine blind.
That \$3Billion was never seen by Ukrainians, was it? But lots of American political crook are living a lot better these days, starting with Joe Biden and his cohorts including the Clintons. Hi time we expose the crooks and throw them in jail with the key in the Potomac
“My God ! , but don`t worry man , take it easy , there are even worse genetic combinations , nobody is perfect , take it easy.”
LOL, you meant “worse ethnic combination”. Except…
German = power
Dutch = height
Polish = sausage
So the reality is that it represents a tremendous 1-2-3 punch. As far as genetics is concerned, I’m white and European. That’s good stuff, right?
Lol , no, it is not good stuff , they have also some good points of course ,but …..
German =militarism , mercenaries for centuries , brutal , blood thirsty , barbarians , create unnecessary and endless wars that they always they end up losing , idiots , created protestant heresy , degenerate philosophy , obsessive compulsive people , lack common sense , rigid , sad , racist , blockheads , sinister …….
Dutch = the germans of the seas , similar , also pirates , colonialists , narcos , racist , financial thiefs . The tallest people in the world , right , but some people say that very tall people are dumb because blood does not arrive well to the brain ,because it is located too high , maybe ….lol .
Polish = americans make jokes about them , idiots , chronic troublemakers , never amounted to anything in history except for making losing wars against their neighbours : Russia , Germany , always end up defeated . They have severe identity problems , a negative identity , they do not if they are slavic , germanic , jewish since they had so many jews for centuries , or angloamericans .
You are a committed zionist and Banderite, which is an interesting combination indeed: Chalupas + Kagans + Tyahnybok + Yarosh

Before the Holocaust, Jews were the largest minority in Poland. In Poland’s major cities, Jews and Poles spoke each other’s languages and interacted in markets and on the streets. Even the market towns, or shtetls, that have come to represent the lives of Jews in Eastern Europe were, to some extent, mixed communities. That did not mean that antisemitism did not impact the lives of Polish Jews, but Jews were part of Poland, and Polish culture was, in part, Jewish.

The “most moral victims”‘ need to be reminded again and again about the Bolshevik Revolution and the mass slaughter of Russians on the orders of Jewish Bolsheviks.
The extermination of Russian nobility (including the tsar’s family) and of the professional class was the foremost important task for the Jewish Russophobes who also organized a system of concentration camps (Soviet GULAG) where Russians were dying by hundreds of thousands. The tragedy of GULAG was real. Its history is not some profitable holobiz profiteering schema that demands the prohibition of any investigation of holobiz claims by any honest historian under the danger of losing a job, physical assault from Jewish thugs, and imprisonment. https://www.unz.com/pub/jhr__the-jewish-role-in-the-bolshevik-revolution-and-russias-early-soviet-regime/#footnote_13
No wonder that the only comprehensive documentary of the history of Jews in Russia is banned by all publishing houses in the US/UK.

Chalupa?
Pronounce Khalupa
Chalupa means peasant house.
Peasant built a House for himself on acquired land.
The house was built with with home made mud bricks reinforced with straws.
Roof was made with several layers of cane, usually at least foot thick.
When children got married married they did built additions to this house.
So eventually these types of houses become long houses.
They are very rear houses now, but still can be found in central Europe.

Take note that none of the main 52 Jewish organizations in the US have ever objected to the open glorification of the Nazi collaborators, the Banderites. The zionists and Banderites unite in their visceral hatred towards Russia — and their disloyalty to the US.
Examples of Banderites’ glorious achievements:
Banderites and Jews:
Not a peep from the Kagans clan, the ADL, and such but only expression of their brotherly love for Chalupa sisters and Vindman brothers.
You really have a fetish of fear for Jews. I really wonder what made you this way…
You obviously feel offended by the facts. It should be hard for the ADL activists and the Jewish Lobby operatives to see their sacred (and profitable) beliefs being targeted by factual information. https://www.unz.com/runz/american-pravda-holocaust-denial/

By what facts???
You’re delusional. This article just spelled out the curruption of Biden and his son, and other high-profile democratic operatives, and all you can do is blame Trump for revealing the curruption??? Find your conscience because right now, by you supporting the Democrats and neocons you are supporting the deepstate and military industrial complex itself. You are supporting war and evil. Please wake up.
Thank you for this information- never read about it until your posts.

And, unsurprisingly:
I can tell you who’s been trying to talk to him, or to Trump, or to anyone who’d listen. For the past 3 years, Lee Stranahan has been ceaselessly talking about Crowdstrike, DNC collusion, and Alexandra Chalupa. That she’s been named to testify in impeachment hearings is first indication the Clinton’s Ukraingate containment wall may be about to fall.
“This web of lies is connected to people like Jacob Rothschild,Rupert Murdoch, Khodorkovsky, Jeffrey Epstein, Strobe Talbott, Edmond Safra, and others in this small circle that drive so much of the lie we are all being fed.” @stranahan
Take the money out of it all, it’s the only way to be sure…never gonna happen.
Too bad for us, we will continue to get robbed. How much came back to Bammy and his boyz(all of ’em) after the Iran deal? Uranium1? The other ones? If I find an extra \$30-40,000 in cash theyll track that in a heartbeat, but big money to these guys and they can’t find it? Rrrright…
Harry doesn’t know much, but he does know something…

David Leiter, Kerry’s former chief of staff was paid \$90,000 by Burisma. In 2013 & 2014, payments from Leiter went out to Ed Markey, Jeanne Shaheen, Richard Blumenthal, Udall. Leiter was late in registering as a foreign agent, lobbying payouts are incomplete on the gov lobbying website, but show up on candidate websites.
I chased it as far as I could. I don’t believe in the tooth fairy.
I’m going to have to see som4e legit sources for this. RT, Saker, and others of their ilk, are not adequate either. RT is owned by Putin’s regime, and Saker is a Putin worshipper. Annamaria hasn’t cited a legit source either. She’s too taken with the Banderites, Ziocons, and Neo-Nazis hiding under her bed. Saker has the same problem.

There are some parallels between the Ukrainian events since at least 2014 wtih US “Democratic” influence, activities, methods and the methods, persons etc. appearing in the current upheaval in the US.
It would be interesting to examine how Ukraine was taken over (supposedly with US involvement), by what methods a dedicated minority succeeded in ruling over the majority (often forced to shout “Slava Ukraini!” and forced to denounce “Moskals” by mobs just like obedient whites are taking the knee in the West before the BLM mob), what organizations have been set up for this purpose, how they took control of the narrative.
It is very similar to how the Democratic Party and the organizations related to them operate in the USA, see for example how the attempt to “reform” the US police and law enforcement, the attempt to disband some police departments is similar to how from 2014 Ukraine has practically replaced the entire police force. They virtually dissolved (wherever they could) the entire (and essentially all Russian-speaking) staff, at least the old organizational units, and replaced them with minority Ukrainian-speakers wherever they were able to. They tried to switch over to a US-patterned organizational structure, adapting, among other things, the ridiculously short training time, recruitment (essentially criminal history is not an obstacle if you are loyal to the regime i.e. speak Ukrainian) under the supervision of US advisors.
Compare how the Democrats/Left are using the same methods at home that they have developed and tried out in Ukraine (and before that in the color revolutions and the Arab Spring). How they direct the current street protests/riots and the political power-grabbing process.
In the US at the moment they are already beyond initiating street movements questioning the current socio-cultural order. At present, as it seems, the “reform” and later replacement of law enforcement is one of the main priorities.
If they follow the Ukrainian scenario, one of the next steps would be the attempt to replace the military, then to totally change over of the education system. What this practically meant in Ukraine was that Russian-speaking, Russian-affiliated people, who were a significant part of society, were removed from leadership positions (in education, culture, science, public sector) and replaced by loyal Ukrainian nationalists. How this is going to be done in the US is a very interesting question and obviously it will have terrible effects on the whole society and economy if it is actually going to be done.
If they continue to implement the scenario they have implemented in Ukraine, they will try to isolate entire territories, in this case states, which are stubbornly resistant to the new social order and culture.
Essentially, even if a part of the next steps of the Ukrainian scenario are implemented or attempted, civil war could break out. That is why the Democrats (and their circles, and the organizations and individuals who influence them) may attempt to take control of the army even in the near future.
Taking over the military could be a very risky thing, as the officer corps is mostly white (if they wanted to replace the non-Hispanic white officers, it would lead to a huge geopolitical vacuum, to put it mildly, as there would be a lack of thousands of trained personnel). The enlisted, however, are mostly Hispanic, African American, Arab/Muslim, and foreigners seeking citizenship. This results in a significantly higher proportion of militarily trained Hispanics and blacks compared to the entire population than of non-Hispanic whites. At the same time, the National Guard are mostly non-Hispanic whites. This is an explosive situation because the National Guard is present in every state, and the civilian population can access weapons ridiculously easily and quickly (heavy weapons, on the other hand, are under the control of non-Hispanic white officers. This caused an enormous problem in Ukraine, when they fired unreliable pro-Russian military officers (and technically trained personnel) and staff, they tried to recruit loyal personnel in weeks. That led to the incorporation of militias of soccer hooligans, neo-nazis and foreigners in the military, effectively in the armed forces, and these units bore the brunt of the fighting in Donetsk/Luhansk.
