Ukrainian Neo-Nazis Declare that Power Comes Out of the Barrels of their Guns
Institute for Political Economy ^ | 02/26/2014 | Dr. Paul Craig Roberts

Posted on 03/01/2014 10:09:42 AM PST by Rusty0604

Reality on the ground in Ukraine contradicts the incompetent and immoral Obama regime’s portrait of Ukrainian democracy on the march.

To the extent that government exists in post-coup Ukraine, it is laws dictated by gun and threat wielding thugs of the neo-Nazi, Russophobic, ultra-nationalist, right-wing parties...Members of President Yanukovich’s ruling party, the Party of Regions, have been shot, had arrest warrants issued for them, have experienced home invasions and physical threats...

Jewish synagogs and Eastern Orthodox Christian churches are being attacked. Only Obama, Susan Rice, Victoria Nuland, Washington’s European puppets, and the Western prostitute media can describe the brutal reality of post-coup Ukraine as “the forward march of democracy.”

The West now faces a real mess, and so does Russia. Yanukovich is history, as are Washington’s “moderates.” The moderates are not only corrupt; they are stupid.

This is what happens when an arrogant, but stupid, Assistant Secretary of State (Victoria Nuland) plots with an equally arrogant and stupid US ambassador (Pyatt) to put their candidates in power once their coup against the elected president succeeds.

Dr. Roberts is a man who should know a few things about the situation.

Did anybody actually think that Vladimir Putin was going to just sit there and watch George Soros, Monsanto, and the US state dept simply walk off with the Ukraine or even part of it???

If interventionists like McCain would want us to fight for al-Qaeda in Syria, it’s not surprising that they would want to intervene for neo-Nazis in the Ukraine.

It was posted on another thread that Russia expelled the US ambassador. If the US ambassador and staff are responsible for a post-coup government that is killing off minorities, that's astounding.

It's the same sort of regime change has been the goal in Egypt, Libya, and Syria. Did they really think Putin would stand for it any longer? Look what happened to Syria when nobody put restraints on the direction of the protests.

Roberts is an anti-American lunatic who has absolutely no special expertise in post-Soviet geopolitics.

He and his buddy Justin Raimondo have zero credibility.

The Ukrainian people are rejecting neo-Soviet attacks on their sovereignty.

This "Soros, Monsanto, neo-Nazi" slander directed against the Maidan patriots is Communist propaganda.

I would be interested in the basis for your opinion of Roberts.

My basis is any one of the various columns he has written for lewrockwell.com accusing US soldiers of war crimes in Iraq.

It bugs me that neo-Nazis are identified as right-wing.

Roberts is also an avid anti-semite, who renounced his involvement in the Reagun Revolution as a mistake.

Exactly what credentials or insider knowledge do you have in regards to what is going on in the Ukraine. Not a fan of Paul Craig Roberts but I also am very skeptical of all the cheer-leading that has been going on around here in support of the overthrowing of an elected Ukrainian government.

It bugs me that people that want Ukranians to live in and govern Ukraine are called National Socialists. I’m American and I want American’s to live in and govern America and these same people would call me a Nazi for it as well.

The Nazi’s are dead! People want to live amongst their own, that is not a gas chamber!

Slav Spring anyone? I don’t think Putin et al. will go down as easily as did the gullible, too little and too late Mubarrak and Qaddaffi.

The “we came, we saw, he died” laugh track formula may have some unintended consequences this time.

Although his criticisms of Bush often seemed to align him with the political left, Roberts continues to explain Ronald Reagan’s two goals—to end stagflation and the cold war. Roberts has written that “true conservatives” were the “first victims” of the neocons of the Bush administration.

Roberts is strongly opposed to what he considers the Republican Party’s disregard for the United States Constitution. He has voiced his regret that he ever worked for it, avowing that, had he known what it would become, he would never have contributed to the Reagan Revolution.[24] He has vehemetly criticized the Democrats as well, stating that Obama has doubled down on the Bush Administrations destruction of the Constitution

How about this paragraph:

Many suffered under communism, including Russians. But was the suffering greater than the suffering of Japanese civilians twice nuked by the “Indispensable people,” or the suffering by German civilians whose cities were firebombed, like Tokyo, by the “exceptional people”?

You can see what drives him here. Which isn't to say a guy like this can't be right on a particular issue, just that it's usually in a clock is right twice a day kind of way.

Svoboda is the equivalent of Jobbik in Hungary.

Like the cheerleading in this country over Egypt and it turned out gov’t was supporting Islamic extremists.
