Who is Killing Opposition Members?
TND Guest Contributor: Vladimir Odintsov |
Foreign experts, including those living in the countries that have had a first hand experience of “color scenarios”, continue to discuss the provocative murder of Boris Nemtsov that was committed some 250 yards away from the Kremlin walls. Most of them agree that there are two primary versions of the reasons behind this assassination.
The first is an all time favorite of all the media sources owned by Washington, it states that there must be some kind involvement of the Russian authorities. But aside from purely propagandistic concern there’s no reason to assume something so utterly absurd, since there’s no scenario in which Nemtsov could present any real competition to Russia’s leading politicians. However, the former US Ambassador to Moscow Michael McFaul had made a lot of fruitless attempts to make Boris Nemtsov as the “Leader of the Opposition”, although he did only get 4% of votes in the Russian parliamentary elections in December 2003, while failing to win the Sochi mayor election in 2009.
However, when considering this version, one couldn’t fail to notice how prompt and well-coordinated the anti-Putin voices were, starting with the US president and the media accountable to the White House and followed by US intelligence agencies. And this, in turn, unwittingly suggests that there actually was some sort of Western involvement in the murder of Boris Nemtsov. This version is perhaps the most popular one, since it has been voiced internationally by a number of independent observers. It should be noted that two years ago Vladimir Putin has already expressed his concerns that the West may attempt creating an involuntary martyr by murdering a member of Russian opposition to try to “demonize“ Russia’s image even further.
It curious that in less than 30 days after the assassination the US propaganda has been trying to push blame on Russian leaders by claiming that the investigation is being intentionally delayed, but yet nobody has ever mentioned the investigation of the assassination of Swedish Prime Minister Olof Palme, that has been intentionally delayed for 30 years?
Still, there’s a certain percentage of Western citizens that don’t seem to be willing to question the official propaganda narrative, those people must recall certain known facts about CIA’s involvement in political assassinations all across the globe that was aimed at destabilizing certain sovereign states that are allegedly “not friendly enough” to the US.
Recently, the US propaganda headliner – the Washington Post has reported that the CIA murdered the head of to tell the world about the organization and execution of the CIA in February 2008 terrorist attack in the Syrian capital Damascus, which killed the leader of the Shiite Hezbollah movement in Damascus back in 2008. But somehow, the international community has not condemned this crime, even though it was a rigid case of illegal terrorist activities executed on the territory of a sovereign state. For some reason strange reason the UN that should lead the international fight against terrorism has not introduced sanctions against the US, which should immediately follow any acts of state terrorism according to resolutions that had been previously adopted by the UN!
However, such acts of terrorism carried out by the US intelligence don’t look surprising to most anyone. In all the seven decades of existence, the CIA operations have taken the lives of millions of lives Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe.
Recently, a well-executed rouge murdering of political activists has become the modus operandi of choice of the White House to create chaos in certain countries that still await the promotion of American-style democracy. This tactics that has been used a countless number of times by US intelligence agencies the “martyrs” from the opposition leaders are brought forward as such by the United States themselves. Should such opposition figures fail to achieve political destabilization in a country, they are often used sacrificial sheep, while their deaths are usually followed by a massive propaganda campaign that should build the tension in a target state. This well-tested CIA “recipe” is fifty years old at best, it was described in the “Handbook on Political Murder”, and then used time and time again in Latin America and some other regions.
Recently a case similar to the Nemtsov murder happened in Argentina with the “mysterious death” chief prosecutor Alberto Nisman, the blame for which Washington and US intelligence agencies are trying to shift on the President of Argentina Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner and thereby destabilize the political situation in the country .
Earlier, another “mysterious death” of journalist Georgy Gongadze in Ukraine in 2000, was used by US intelligence agencies to foment the “orange revolution” that allowed a pro-Western politician Viktor Yushchenko to take power in his hands.
As it was pointed out by a prominent historian and researcher William Blum, in the period from 1945 to 2003, the United States attempted to overthrow the government in more than 40 countries, created more than 30 allegedly patriotic movements overseas, which resulted in the deaths of several million people. Yet the US “tool of destruction” – the Central Intelligence Agency carries on its subversive activities around the world, murdering political activists en masse in an attempt to destabilizing the countries that refuse to follow the instructions issued by Washington. It’s only a matter of time that US fingerprints will be be found in Nemtsov murder case.
