The Lessons of Maidan

The Kiev junta has embarked on a mission to kill their own people who don’t seem to think that right-wing fascist Russo-phobia is all that great.

The ethnic Russians have taken over city buildings in Donetsk, Slavyansk, and Lugansk, and have called for referendum on autonomy and secession.

The Kiev junta and their western masters have hypocritically and cynically, and without a sense of irony or shame, accused Russia of “fomenting” secessionist tendencies in a plan to break Southeastern Ukraine off and incorporate it into the Russian Federation.

The unelected Kiev junta says this after they rode in to power with help of violent mobs and with the aid of western connivance, complicity, funds and weapons. They did this to a democratically-elected government.

Inconvenient facts have been filtering out, most notable among them that the shootings in Maidan square in February were not the work of the previous Ukrainian government, which means Yanukovych is not guilty and therefore the legitimate president of the Ukraine.

Just like the false-flag chemical weapons attack in Syria in August was carried out by rebels with Turkish help and then blamed on Syrian government, shady right sector scumbags and their western backers conspired to shoot protesters and police alike and blamed it on Yanukovych, in order to brand him a criminal and force him to flee so they pro-US puppets can take power.

Bullet wounds and bullet fragments taken out of the bodies of the shooting victims show that they all came from the same weapon.

This means that every order, decree, and agreement they sign is 100% illegitimate and no one should listen to any orders coming from this current Kievan junta.

The US promises weapons, money and all sorts of benefits but they are broke, together with the EU and the IMF. Whatever aid they are planning is an insult. But if the US and EU care so much about Ukraine, why didn’t they help it years ago? Why can’t they give them free gas like Russia has been giving them, despite the fact that Kiev is ruled by a coup openly-hostile to Russia and threatening to join NATO?

Would the US continue to give discounted gas to a country which is hostile to it for more than a few minutes after its government took power? Hello no! The US would waste no time in immediately setting up sanctions, embargoes, blockades and threaten military force.

By comparison, Russia seems to be quite tame and considerate in deciding to pump gas to Ukraine for a second moth straight, until May. Would the pathetic and feckless EU be as generous? Don’t bet on it, as the EU and US only take, not give; they only appear to give. It’s all PR and sugar-coated bullshit with these two misfits.

There is now evidence of the Kievan junta being groomed and their thugs trained months before Maidan by Polish police forces in preparation for the Maidan riots.

But as in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, and Syria, the US regime change has backfired. Russia is standing firm and will not allow itself to be bullied. It has taken a page out of the Maidan playbook and is playing the same game the US played in Kiev in February.

It must be remembered, that the US/EU have caused the current chaos in the Ukraine. They have for years conspired to topple the Russian-friendly government in Ukraine and replace it with pro-western puppets. 

It's part of a plan to encricle Russia with pro-US regimes, then isolate and choke it. The US doesn't want competition as strong as Russia is, so they want to eliminate it, but they've chosen the wrong country to fuck with this time.They tried and failed in 2004-2010.

But now, they’re not merely content with having an elected government. They want a permanent pro-US Ukrainian government which will crush in whatever way necessary any leader or party which is not US-friendly in the future

That’s what all the Russo-phobia and accusing Russia of massing forces and the paranoid scare of an impending Russian invasion are all about. This is also why the US and NATO are massing forces in Eastern Europe and creating a fake crisis and manufacturing chaos and unrest that need not exist.

They do this to cover up their guilt and their failures for what’s going on in Ukraine. They also do this to scare people into accepting the illegitimate Kiev junta, which distracts them with fake Russian threat while the Ukrainians pockets are being picked by US/EU/IMF.

Once the dust settles, though, Ukrainians will find themselves poorer than they are.

Why anyone in Ukraine would look up to the US/EU for a better life after all the mess and misery those two have caused is beyond me.

Russia is the only country in a position to help Ukraine. Russia has given Ukraine $34 billion as well as gas subsidies. It has kept Ukraine afloat for years. Without Russia, Ukraine would have collapsed years ago.

I predict that the US will not succeed in the Ukraine. The demoralized Ukrainian army doesn’t want to kill their own people and some have surrendered their weapons, vehicles and tanks to the Easter Ukrainian protesters.

The Kievan junta has painted itself into a corner. Their attempts to suppress the East will not succeed. Eventually they, and their western masters, will have to sit down and talk to Russia. The result will be most likely some kind of an autonomy/federalization plan which will weaken any US-sponsored government and make it more friendly towards Russia.

Russia is simply too close to Ukraine historically, culturally, religiously, and economically, and has too much influence and clout there to be kicked out permanently. Whether the west likes it or not, Russia is and will always be a part of Ukraine’s future. Ukraine is part of Russia and always will be; if not physically then at least culturally. These two countries have simply too much in common to be torn apart by any two-bit US general or congressional vermin and their European vassals and clowns. 


Russia is here to stay, and as it chooses to be!

Ukraine also will not join NATO as there is no need for this. Last, Ukraine will not join the EU, although there may be some limited agreement with it, but with the Eastern regions having autonomy, the EU dictates may not fully apply, blunting any designs Brussels has on the country.

All the US/EU/NATO whining and demagoguery, threats, and deluded hyperventilating against Russia is just a sideshow. There’s nothing that the US/EU can do to Russia that won’t hurt them as well.

The three lessons of Maidan are:

1. A democratically-elected government doesn’t guarantee competent, honest, corruption-free leadership

2. A democratically-elected government can be overthrown by an angry mob if it gets corrupt, incompetent, and dishonest

3. A democratically-elected government can be overthrown if another country doesn’t like it

People in the US and EU should at least take to heart the first two lessons.
