Gorbachev signed JP II KGB death warrant
Created: 27.04.2008 15:50
The weekly Wprost, out tomorrow, shows a politburo document, signed by Mikhail Gorbachev, which appears to warrant a KGB contract killing on John Paul II.
So claims Polish journalist David Dastych in a book, also released tomorrow, Chodzi o papieża szpiedzy w watykanie - (About the Pope: Spies in the Vatican). The politburo document says: "Use all available possibilities to prevent a new political trend, initiated by the Polish pope…"
The document, which dates back to November 1979, - one year after Karol Wojtyla became pope - is signed by eight top Party officials including Konstantin Rusakov, who coordinated action with the Polish communist party, and Mikhail Gorbachev.
In Rome, Pope John Paul II survived four bullets on May 13, 1981 shot by Turk Mehmet Ali Hagca.
“If this information is true, Gorbachov should be brought to account,” said Zbigniew Chlebowski, head of the ruling Civic Platform’s parliamentary party.
It should be no suprise. Gorbachev was a hard core communist. He turned in fellow students at Moscow university in the 1950’s.
That would’ve made a lot of countries want to bomb the Soviets.
The surprise is in the extant document. Gotta be fake. (Where’s Dan Rather and Mary Mapes?) No politician would ever sign something so incriminating. No failing regime would ever let such evidence survive it.
Absolutely.
Precisely. This is most likely a setup for some other more hidden purpose. In Russian, then and now, things are rarely what they seem on the surface.

Isn’t this already a Tom Clancy novel called “Red Rabbit”????

That presumes that the possibility of the failure of the regime was admissible within the KGB. Which was I think emphatically not the case. I think that if you raised your head within the KGB and said, "but what happens if the USSR collapses?" you would have been taken to the dungeon belowyourwhat had been your office . . . and never seen again.I would agree that the number of people who would have had a "need to know" would have been minimized. But I also think that by the time the possibility of the collapse of the USSR was admissible within the KGB then any KGB officer who might have been able to shred a document so damning to the KGB in general would have had more interest in shredding documents to cover his own behind than that of former General Secretary Gorbychev - who was by then considered a traitor within the KGB. Recall that Gorbychev had been arrested and deposed by then, and was saved by Yeltsin, who proceeded to outlaw the Communist Party of the USSR. A move at which Gorbychev blanched, but to which he had to acquiesce.
Such a document would not have been destroyed before that day - the question being, what happened within the offices of the KGB after that? I seem to recall a statue of the founder of the KGB being torn down in front of the central KGB office . . . what was going on inside at the time? And why would such a sensitive document have been kept under wraps until now, and yet come to light now. There must have been chaos inside that office on that day, of people thinking about their own backsides. Maybe someone thought of that document and hoped it might be a valuable thing to have, and possibly a get-out-of-jail card in the future.
Now if you told me that someone was peddling a copy of a copy of a copy of such a document, then I would really be suspicious . . .
And he ordered the Vilnius massacre in 1991.
Only in Russia? Hardly.
Lying bastard.
So that’s why the liberals loved Gorbachev so much! Now it makes perfect sense.
I wouldn’t be surprised if this were true. The USSR ran on a mountain range of paper because everyone had to
CYA all the time. The KGB wouldn’t undertake an assassination of this calibre without the full list of names from the Politburo.
I think you will find Gorby teaching at the University of Hawaii, Barack Obaba’s sperm donor’s alma mater. He’s the one with the wine stain that looks like the Philippines on his head.
The association between Communism and its hired thugs — Islamic Jihadists — is crystal clear for any who care to see it.
Oh, agreed; elsewhere as well. But certainly, in Russia.
