Multiple hit squads gunning for Zelensky

Zelensky became president of Ukraine for the same reason Trump became president of USA; brand recognition thanks to their TV careers. Both of them found out in short order that being "president" didn't actually mean you wielded power. 

Zelensky, and Ukraine in general, has been used as bear bait by its masters in the West. Now that the bear has charged, Zelensky is expendable. So is Ukraine, for that matter.

No matter how things end up on the ground, years of prodding the Ukrainian puppets to goad Putin has finally paid off. NATO was desperate to maintain some semblance of relevance in the post-Cold War era. The allies weren't really buying in anymore. Hardly anyone was pulling their 2% of GDP weight. Without NATO the American Empire is basically the US, plus Canada and the Marshall Islands. 

The Germans in particular were getting way too big for their lederhosen. Being the industrial powerhouse of the EU, they thought they were the Big Dog. They bought Putin's authoritarian gas by the pipeline. They even built him a new pipeline!

Obviously, to keep the Germans in the tent, they'd need to be taught a lesson. 

Desperate measures were in order.

Enter Putin.

More specifically, Putin's military entered Ukraine on Thursday. By Sunday, Chancellor Olaf had sholtzed his trousers, and announced an immediate doubling of the defence budget. Not only that, but he also cancelled the new pipeline he had built for Putin's gas!

Those Germans have long memories! When the bear is at the door, cling tight to Uncle Sam.

NATO is Saved!

The American Empire is saved!

Alas, there will be blowback. Not only on Sholtz. There will be festering resentment towards the comedian who allowed himself to be so manipulated by his American masters.

When Zelensky goes to his reward, a German hit squad is a distinct possibility. But they are certainly not the only suspects.

On Feb. 4 the Globe & Mail reported that both PM Fluffy and his brain, Chrystia Freeland, had made phone calls to Zelensky, suggesting it wouldn't be in his interests if he were to follow through on his threat to arrest former president Poroshenko when he returned to Ukraine in mid January. 

Those calls were egregious interference in Ukraine's internal affairs, but Canada has the largest Ukrainian diaspora in the world, and they tack hard right. Their lobby group in Ottawa arguably has more schlep than the Jewish lobby. Not only that, but the Deputy PM is part of that lobby.

Why would they want to save Poroshenko's ass?

Zelensky was a TV star who won an election. Poroshenko is a serious guy, a player, a man who knows the deep state in numerous countries. A man on a first-name basis with all the other corrupt oligarchs in Ukraine and beyond.

In short, a man who can get things done. But before he can do that, Zelensky needs to be done, it you catch my drift.

Zelensky is a marked man. 

Hopefully this brief essay will help point the investigators in the right direction.

Putin against the world

Our corporate media had a good week of it moaning about Putin's latest aggression against the hapless Ukrainians, so anything I read in Doug Saunders me-too column in the Globe today I'd already read several times. I guess Doug is down to one weekend column due to his employer finding efficiencies. Don't sweat it, Doug, the new Amazon warehouse in Vaughn will be hiring soon!

You'll be fine.

Anyway, taking a break from sowing generic chaos and instability around the world, Putin has once again gone out of his way to pay special attention to the immediate threat on Russia's doorstep, Poroshenko's model democracy next door. That's because he's afraid that the Russian people will sooner or later realize that life is so much better there, and they too will demand a Nuland/Payette democratic transfer of power to someone more amenable to taking direction from Washington than the habitually recalcitrant Putin.

Then life will be good!

This line of reasoning, and it is certainly not original to Doug Saunders, as his contemporaries in other major media outlets have been beating this drum all week and Doug had to wait for his weekend slot, contains an inherent contradiction that the apologists for American exceptionalism tend to avoid addressing, which is this; if Putin is indeed "weak and isolated," as we are continuously led to believe, then how does he manage to sow all that global chaos and instability? And not only that, he manages to sow world-wide mayhem with a war chest not 10% of the USA military budget!

Clearly, the man is a genius!


Either that, or our mainstream pundits are full of shit.

The crux of Saunders' imaginary thesis is that Putin is at his most dangerous when cornered, as he is now. How do we know we've got Putin cornered? His approval rating is down to 60%.

Let's apply that logic to the cornered career criminals in the Nations of Virtue. Macron and Merkel are under 30%. The greatest leader since Moses is in the high 30s. Trump is in the low 40s. Our own PM Fluffy is barely over 50%.


But Putin is on the brink because he's only got a 60% approval rating?

Latest Ukraine scandal: patriots stymied by lack of approved underpants

No, I'm not making this up.

"Bureaucratic woes" indeed!


No less an authority than Prince Poroshenko himself has called out the Ukrainian bureaucracy for holding up the fight against Russian aggression with their nit-picky regulations on underpants.

Sounds kinda fucked up to me.

We normally think of Greece as the basket case of Europe...

Greece has a quarter the population of Ukraine, but twice the GDP, even in these dark times.

Is it any wonder why?

These guys aren't fighting a war; they're posing for a photograph

Reuters wants me to believe that these guys are fighting those dastardly pro-Russian separatists.

You know the ones... Putin's boys.

Ya, you've read all about them, the "little green men" and all that stuff. In fact, ever since the shoot-down of MH-317 we've had a non-stop stream of anti-Russian invective.

Yet not the slightest shred of anything that could even loosely be construed as "proof."

Today Poroshenko stood in front of the assembled multitude at Davos and claimed, once again, that thousands of Russian troops and hundreds of Russian tanks have invaded Ukraine... but not a single Ukrainian has managed to upload a single selfie in front of one of those troops or one of those tanks.

That's how we know Poroshenko is lying.
