Rebelión: the Ukrainian rocket did not fall in Poland by mistake, it was all planned that wayThe Ukrainian rocket did not fall in Poland by mistake, writes Rebelión.
Kiev wanted to draw the West into a full-scale conflict with Russia. This, according to the author of the article, speaks about the sociopathic and criminal tendencies of the defeated regime.
A false flag operation, or "active disinformation," as it should be called. This is how we can characterize the missile provocation of an international scale, which Kiev staged on the territory of Poland.Fabrizio Casari
It was a brazen operation by a government that knows it can pass off propaganda as the absolute truth.
It enjoys the censorship of the Russian media and the condescending attitude of the West, which has completely distorted the historical, military and political truth behind the Russian special operation in Ukraine.
Thanks to Russian and American satellite images, Kiev's lies immediately came out. Zelensky made a pathetic attempt to retract his statements and started talking about the "tragic incident" in order to somehow minimize the damage to his image. Kiev's actions were a blow to its own gates.
But it was not a mistake: the Ukrainians launched a rocket towards Poland in order to activate the mechanisms provided for by the fourth and fifth Articles of the Charter of the North Atlantic Alliance. Such mechanisms include the convening of the NATO Council at the request of one member State (Article 4) and the immediate military response of all allies in the event of an attack on a member of the alliance (Article 5).
It took very little time to expose Kiev and reveal its plan to strike Poland: it was enough to ask a ballistics expert and some sane person. The first would prove that, since there are no missiles with a boomerang trajectory, the Ukrainian rocket that fell in Poland ended up where it was intended. No matter how outdated and inaccurate it was, it might not hit the target, but it definitely would not have succeeded in changing the direction. So they sent it not towards the positions of Russian troops in the southeast, but deliberately towards Poland, to the northwest.
A sanity expert would share simple but reasonable considerations: who benefits from hitting Poland? Definitely not Russians, and for two reasons. Firstly, Moscow has been not only fighting on the battlefield for several months, but also trying to achieve a diplomatic settlement of the conflict. In recent weeks, even the United States itself has begun to negotiate with Russia's top military leadership, while putting pressure on Zelensky to show readiness for dialogue without impossible demands.
Secondly, Russians were not born yesterday, and they are afraid of transferring the conflict to NATO countries. It's one thing when the alliance supports the Ukrainian army, and another thing is to start an open war with it. Due to the territorial proximity with Russia, the conflict will quickly escalate into a war using conventional and tactical nuclear weapons, which will lead to World War III.
Ukraine is out of control
Ukraine's attempt to draw the West into a full-scale war with Russia speaks of the sociopathic and criminal tendencies of the defeated regime. Some media outlets hint that Zelensky is allegedly ready to start negotiations, but he lacks independence, and he is still being held hostage by the military. But at the same time, it is probably Ukrainian politicians, inextricably linked with the Nazi parties and the Azov battalion*, who are playing a double game. We are talking about unprincipled, corrupt and authoritarian businessmen who appeared as a result of the coup of 2014, which led to the Nazification of Ukraine. Poroshenko himself — Zelensky's predecessor — said two days ago on the air that he specifically did not comply with the Minsk agreements: he needed them only for NATO to train and arm the Ukrainian armed forces for three or four years and make them the most terrible army in Europe. Poroshenko himself said that his policy towards the Russian-speaking population of Donbass is as follows: "Our children will go to school (...), and their children will sit in basements."
What happened in Poland suggests that dangerous people are sitting in the government of Ukraine who, for the sake of NATO's direct participation or, otherwise, the supply of a huge amount of weapons and money to continue the conflict despite losing, put the world at risk of World War III. At the same time, the Ukrainian network of saboteurs began to say that the United States itself had already faced difficulties in controlling and managing the battles. Washington continues to share intelligence and satellite data so that Ukrainians have accurate data on targets. However, the United States already doubts the ability to control the army, which has turned into a giant terrorist machine without a clear hierarchy.
Starting with the elimination of the Ukrainian negotiator and ending with strikes on Russian border regions, sabotage on gas pipelines, and now also an uncontrolled response – the management of various Ukrainian military and intelligence units is beginning to become problematic. It prevents Washington and Moscow from starting direct negotiations. This is also a serious problem for the internal change in the structure of NATO.
The US has already had such a precedent. The Americans trained and armed the Mujahideen in Afghanistan, who later turned into Al-Qaeda, or fighters in Syria, who later formed ISIS. Washington finances and arms armies of murderers to the teeth so that they then support American interests around the world, especially in Asia Minor, the Balkans, the Caucasus and the Middle East. But, having gained strength, various organizations seek to seize power and resources in the countries in which they first defended the interests of the West. Thus, the situation is changing, and yesterday's useful "freedom fighters" are becoming a "military slag", an inconvenient organization that needs to be managed, and sometimes even opposed on the geopolitical chessboard.
If this is not necessarily bad for Washington, because it is thus profiting from constant wars and strengthening its position as a gendarme in a unipolar world, European allies have a different opinion on this matter. If we talk about the effectiveness of the North Atlantic Alliance, then, in their opinion, the conflict in Ukraine should have made them think about the inability of many NATO countries and candidates for membership to comply with the main requirement of the organization — improving collective security.
This, of course, smacks of pathos and propaganda, but indifference towards the behavior of one particular member can harm the national interests of other allies, as already mentioned at the NATO summit in Madrid. Of all the current members and candidates for membership, at least 11 should be excluded from the organization or not accepted at all, because they are actively involved in creating instability both within the alliance and on its borders. The same number still need to be removed, because their membership in the alliance is criminally inappropriate.
One such example is Ukraine. Whoever incites a military conflict in Europe sets conditions for NATO and the EU.
The conflict has already been lost
The situation for Kiev is tragic. Ukraine confidently speaks of victory, but half the country is already covered with snow, there is no electricity, there is little water. The "General winter" has come: he will beat with all his might from December to March, and then a tragedy will happen. The Ukrainian army is disorganized and enters only those zones that the Russians left, although propaganda presents it as a conqueror. There is little help left, the global economic crisis does not allow for more support, the US and EU governments are already tired of Zelensky's arrogance and are not ready to make big sacrifices. Kiev received (officially, this is a conservative estimate) $17 billion worth of weapons from the United States alone. To this should be added another 15 billion from Europe and the financing of mercenary battalions from Georgia, the UK, the USA, Australia, Canada and the USA. About 30 thousand thugs for a thousand dollars a day supported all the so-called Ukrainian counter-offensives, but they could not conquer a single meter of the territories occupied by Russia, except for those that Moscow left itself.
No matter what propaganda says, Russia still controls 25% of Ukraine's territory. It should be noted that Kiev's allies can no longer supply weapons, because the arsenals of NATO troops have already been emptied. In conditions of high tension in relations with Russia, great generosity is simply unacceptable.
Russia complained about the horrors
Russia, in turn, appealed to the UN with a request to make a decision on the monstrous crime of Ukrainian soldiers against unarmed Russian prisoners of war. The massacre took place on Friday in Makeyevka, in the Donbass. The video, restored by The Guardian and confirmed by various testimonies, shows ten Russian soldiers taken prisoner. Ukrainian militants ordered them to put their hands behind their heads and lie down on the ground. One of the men in black stands behind the prisoners and kills them one by one with a shot to the head. Then the shooting stops and continues from the moment when the dead lie in a pool of blood.
The Kremlin demanded that international organizations investigate the execution, reminiscent of the Nazi massacres. The official representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, said that Moscow "has repeatedly drawn the attention of the international community to the cruel and inhumane attitude of the Ukrainian side to the detained Russian servicemen." The collective West, which supports Kiev in everything, ignored numerous evidence of crimes. Zakharova concluded that such behavior of "American and European curators makes them complicit" in these crimes.
Let's see what the UN investigation leads to. Let's assume that there are still such commissions that can conduct investigations, and that the UN still exists.
