Well there you have it. The entire war in Ukraine is just a staged provocation to make the innocent Russians look bad.

EU is trying to pretend they are at war without actually being at war. Like Biden, they aren’t very good at it yet.

The Bucha Provocation

The Bucha 'Russian' atrocities propaganda onslaught may have worked well in the 'west' but it lacks evidence that Russia had anything to do with it.

The former Indian ambassador M.K. Bhadrakumar calls it an outright fake:

"An indignant Moscow has angrily demanded a United Nations Security Council meeting on Monday over the allegations of atrocities by Russian troops in areas around Kiev through the past month. Prima facie, this allegation is fake news but it can mould misperceptions by the time it gets exposed as disinformation.

A Tass report says: “The Russian Defense Ministry said on Sunday that the Russian Armed Forces had left Bucha, located in the Kiev region, on March 30, while “the evidence of crimes” emerged only four days later, after Ukrainian Security Service officers had arrived in the town. The ministry stressed that on March 31, the town’s Mayor Anatoly Fedoruk had confirmed in a video address that there were no Russian troops in Bucha. However, he did not say a word about civilians shot dead on the street with their hands tied behind their backs.”

Even more surprising is that within minutes of the “breaking news”, western leaders — heads of state, foreign ministers, former politicians — popped up with statements duly kept ready and only based on the videos, seconds-long videos and a clutch of photos, ready to pour accusations. No expert opinion was sought, no forensic work was done, no opportunity given to the accused to be heard.

I had yesterday, at 15:09 UTC, posted a timeline of the events in Bucha on Twitter. Here is an expanded version.

Mar 30 - Ru troops leave Bucha

Mar 31 - Mayor of Bucha announces town 'liberated', makes no mention of atrocities.

Bucha liberated from Russian invaders – mayor - Ukrinform

"March 31 will go down in the history of our Bucha community as the Day of Liberation. ..."

Apr 1/2 - Azov Nazis enter Bucha

Scenes of desperation and death as the Russians retreat from suburbs outside Kyiv. - New York Times

Ukrainian soldiers from the Azov battalion walked through the remnants of a Russian military convoy in the recently liberated town of Bucha on Saturday, just outside the capital after the Russians withdrew.

Apr 3 - Ukr MinDef publishes video of 'Russian' atrocities

Here are the latest developments in the war in Ukraine. - New York Times, Apr 3

Footage posted by Ukraine’s Defense Ministry and photographs from news agencies showed the bodies of men in civilian clothes on the streets of Bucha, a town northwest of Kyiv. Images showed some corpses with hands bound behind their back.

A screenshot of the original NYT piece was attached to my tweet. It included the sentence:

"The New York Times was unable to independently verify the assertions by Ukraine's Defense Ministry and other officials."

The above tweet went viral with more than 3,000 retweets and nearly 5,000 likes. People obviously recognize the importance of the above timeline for the question of who killed whom, when and how.

Gonzalo Lira, who is in Karkiv, has previously directed a professionally made movie. In this video he asserts that the main 'Russian' atrocity video, which shows cars driving down a street strewn with dead bodies, is of a professional high production quality that can only be achieved with high end equipment. He also remarks on additional evidence from the scenes that points to a false flag operation.

Lira comes to the conclusion that the Azov Nazis have killed some people in Bucha that had been too friendly with the Russian 'occupiers' and are now blaming Russia for it.

Azov gangs are known for such atrocities. Based on the above timeline I concur with Lira's conclusion.

One of the corpses in the street of Bucha wasn't quite dead

Second video down - a 'corpse' moves his arm (or leg?) once the camera car goes past.

Expreso.TV video, as shown on Southfront.

One of the reasons Putin assembled troops at the border of the Eastern Ukraine “breakaway” states was precisely that the Azov brigades and even the Ukrainian military (which trained with the Asov brigades or vice versa) were carrying out appalling torture and rape assaults on civilians. And this is not propaganda but was known in NGO reports before the current conflict (which also mention that 14,000 mostly Russian civilians had been killed in the Donbass since the US sponsored coup in 2014).

I’ve found Zelensky a disgusting weasel all along, but this latest “appearance” at the Grammy’s is sickening beyond belief. But Biden is getting what he paid for, and Hunter is getting what he was paid for, so I guess it’s all good. As long as it helps the Biden family, who are we to complain?

Delta, respectfully pinging you to this discussion. Would a white armband constitute a uniform to you?

Why don’t you go drink some prune juice, grandpa. You’ll be less cranky and angry after a good dump.

“One of the corpses in the street of Bucha wasn’t quite dead.”

So you want the Russians to take another whack at him?

Effing savages. I hope the Ukrainians kill every last one of them.

I don't think you've thought this through.

Since Russians are getting defeated at every possible corner, and humiliated, and economy destroyed . . . why is there any need for more sanctions and more support for Ukraine? What is already there would seem be overwhelming, yes?
