While the NSA is busy justifying its spying of every American its existence thanks to famous Moscow resident Edward Snowden, its Russian counterparts have been busy intercepting even more phone Ukrainian conversations.
After a month ago a leaked phone call between US assistant secretary of state Victoria Nuland and the US envoy to the Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt confirmed that it was the US that was pulling the strings in what was about to be a violent coup overthrowing Ukraine's president Yanukovich, "someone" has just leaked another phone conversation, this time between parliamentarian Nestor Shufrych and former PM and ideological leader of the Ukraine "revolution" Yulia Tymoshenko and most probable future president of West Ukraine, in which Tymoshenko is makes the following threats, "It’s going too far! Bugger! We must grab arms and go whack those damn katsaps [a Ukrainian word used to refer to the Russians in a negative tone] together with their leader", "I’ll use all my connections, I’ll raise the whole world – as soon as I’m able to – in order to make sure.. Bugger!.. not even scorched earth won’t remain where Russia stands" although all her empty threats collapse in the last sentence of the phone conversation in which she says, regarding the Crimea annexation, that "we are going to take it to the Hague International Criminal Court." Good luck with that.
But the smoking gun, and where Putin once again shows just how masterful of a chess player he is, is the following statement by Tymoshenko, after asked, rhetorically, by her counterparty, "what should we do now with the 8 million Russians that stayed in Ukraine. They are outcasts"... to which she replies: "They must be killed with nuclear weapons."
Needless to say, that is not how you make Russian friends, or diffuse geopolitical tensions
Russian Reset indeed. Nice work, Obamatron.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
She shouts “bugger” several times. Does she have homosexuals on her staff? They must be humping each other (buggery) while she is talking.
Color me extremely skeptical.
Perhaps all the allusions and outright accusations concerning their fascism is true.
One thing is certain, if they have the support of the Obama administration, THEY ARE NOT THE GOOD GUYS.
Uhuh.
Wont be seeing this on Tonight’s NBC Evening News, or The Daily Show, will we?
This could make THE GAY MEDIA MESSIAH look bad.
Sounds like Iran for crying out loud. Are we arming these people?
“Bugger” is an English interjection, sort of a ‘nice’ way to swear. You may hear an Englishman say “Oh bugger it!” when frustrated.
Ruh roh!
And next week, RT will announce the Ukrainians are conspiring with space Nazis.
I think “Bugger!” needs to enter the vocabulary more frequently. Before we’re told it’s not PC to use the “B word”.
I wouldn't be a bit surprised to hear that.
It’s not surprising that the US and probably the EU where behind some of the protests and maybe some of the more extreme actions (like the snipers which appear to be not from the old president but the new “leaders”). From what I’ve heard most of this was motivated by the absolutely corrupt government and not really about which way the Ukraine sided (EU or Russia). But as someone once said, “never let a crisis go to waste” and I’m sure that the US got their grubby little hands in the pie there in order to provide them with that extra little “push”.
I’m not some starry eyed idealist when it come to international dealings. This is the way the game is played, always has been and always will be, there are no real “friends” when it comes to international politics.
That said I see this as a no win situation for the US. Putin with this has every excuse in the book to take the rest of eastern Ukraine and I have every expectation that he will. Obama has been played like the amateur community activist that he is in this.
What's wrong with just using bullets? It seemed to get the job done for Hitler/Stalin/Mao and crew...or is that just too 20th century.....
There'd be some fallout from that.
Just a point of information, Zero Hedge was translating the recording that is on that page. The embedded youtube audio plus translation is on the page.~ N.
