"Out Of My Face Please" - Why Are US Soldiers In Mariupol?
Amid the devastation of yesterday's Mariupol artillery strikes which killed or wounded dozens, which was promptly blamed by both sides on the "adversary" - and has been proclaimed by both 'sides' (more on that later) as more violent than before the truce - an 'odd' clip has emerged that appears to provide all the 'proof' a US intelligence officer would need to surmise that US military boots are on the ground in Ukraine. As the following clip shows, a Ukrainian journalist approaches what she thinks is a Ukrainian soldier (since he is wearing a Ukrainian military uniform and is carrying an AK) and asked him as they run through the battlezone, "tell me, what happened here?" His response, which requires no translation, speaks for itself.
Forward to 2:36 for the 'Ukrainian' soldier's response:
Here is a clip which focuses just on the exchange in question:
With daily reportage of the 'invasion' of Russian military forces into Ukraine territory (admittedly unconfirmed by NATO), this clip raises many questions about American involvement in the ongoing conflict - most of all, was the US involved in the "staging" the Mariupol massacre, and if so it is clear who should be blamed (and isolated).
Of course, US troops, or at least mercs, on the ground, should not be a total surprise, since just 2 months ago, we discussed the hacked US documents that revealed the extent of undisclosed US "lethal aid" being given to the Ukraine army. What was apparently left unleaked was the part of the US aid also includes US-speaking soldiers. The only question is whether US taxpayers are paying their wages.

I don't support the Ukraine nazi puppet government but two things jump out at me the specifically showed street address I think as to say hey this happened in Mariupol irrefutably ok their journalist s that's their job
but if he is an Operator (SF or otherwise CIA etc) why would he answer a question asked in Ukrainian and with reply in English? Don't you think that if they were selected to work there it may be a consideration to use a native speaker? It is well known that US Army SF have specific regional assignments that they do case and country studies on and have at least an elementary knowledge of the local language
Seems contrived to elicit a response. I don't doubt that US and other NATO forces are there and active fuck Joe Bidens coke head little boy that was kicked out of the navy is running their energy sector. That should be appalling enough to send the Ukrainians into the streets to overthrow the U.S. backed puppet regime in Kiev
lol....nothing like a dub over.....note that we cannot see his lips (how convenient) so we cannot tell what (if anything) this guy said. Don't be so gullible people!
I wonder if he accepts payment in Hrivna?
Or maybe that is where the Ukrainian Gold is going?
Oh my, this really brought the trolls out.
I'm loving it.
Personally I don't care that much if he's from the north of NE or not.
We got a Western operative on film in Mariupol, that's the news, the rest speculation.

UK
Not necessarily that important but first thought was UK. Sticking with that.
As for what a UK soldier / SAS is doing in Ukraine, they do sometimes work for US interests, like for example, dressing up as Iraqi and getting cuaght with "boot" full of C4 on their way to/from blowing up a Mosque...shit like that.
Maybe this chap was there to shoot some civilians or fire mortors or whatever....

CIA have been known to poke around in peoples' biz.
FWIW

Oh, Him???
He's just there on holiday....
another chorus "Sweet Caroline" and that funding for CIA HOMELAND SECURITY HAPPENED?
Russia's Economic Collapse Hits Home in Miami
Four yachts sat docked outside a North Miami restaurant called Lique on Thursday night for the Russian-American Chamber of South Florida Luxury Yacht Business Mixer event. And many of the attendees had shared anxieties.
Ralph Navarro, CEO of Florida Yachts International, footed the bill to rent out the space in the hope of building connections with wealthy Russians with the ultimate goal of possibly making a sale.
About 300 people, most of them members of the Russian American Chamber, were in attendance, and roughly 80 percent of them are Russian business owners and managers in industries ranging from real estate to computer technology and finance.
It's a crowd that has grown increasingly concerned about its financial situation in light of the economic downturn of the country where many of them do business, CNBC's conversations with the attendees revealed.
Chingiz Askerov lives in Miami but owns a major shopping center in Moscow, Domodedova Shopping Mall, which includes grocery stores and clothing merchants as well as restaurants. He also owns commercial and residential real estate in Moscow, which he told CNBC has lost significant value with the fall of the ruble.
"Any person doing business in Russia right now is being harmed," he said.
He noted that his business also has suffered because of low oil prices and the sanctions imposed against Russia by the United States and European Union in retaliation for its support for rebels in eastern Ukraine.
"People are buying a lot less, because having a salary in rubles does not help," he said. "It's as though everything is now worth half of what it used to be."
Lique restaurant and lounge owner Alex Podolny said he can see the consequences of Russia's faltering economy among some of his clientele.
"There's difference, they are not spending like they used to," he said. "People from Russia (and) Ukraine of high net worth are definitely scared, and it's concerning to me for my own business."
He said Russian businessmen tell him they think things will worsen economically. Conversations with several people at the event made clear that some had noticed a decreasing number of Russians either coming to Miami or engaging in more business in the U.S.
'Russian rich still love new construction'
On the other hand, Valentina Aved of Villa Valentina Realty said that she is not concerned, despite that about 80 percent of her clients are Russian. She said she still sees interest from Russian residents who are looking to rent or buy apartments in Miami and Palm Beach.
"They like new construction and are willing to pay top dollar for (a) luxury lifestyle," she said as she handed out colorful business cards to potential clients.
She said business was booming for her.
As for yacht company owner Navarro, he said he's broadening his approach to reach out to more diverse clientele.
That is an American accent, suburban American Standard variant that watched a lot of TV, traveled to many places, military and no grunt either.
His pronunciation of '"Outta"" is the key.
If you heard hard d sound and not t then it is East Coast. T would be West coast or Canada. Water not Wadurh.
He ''swallows'' the tt in the middle, makes them quiet almost silent ''d''.
New England, but not an obvious accent.
Tier one by demeanor and tone.
Definitely American, or at least moved to USA New England area before 10th birthday. Went to training or school someplace asides East Coast USA as his accent is weakened, has been around many other English speakers from other regions, accent is weakened - but most people these days (internet, tv, movies) have a (weakened, neutralised) accent, in all countries.
My money is on the guy being from the south. He's got a slight drawl and says "please".
I disagree. I'd bet that the dude is probably either;
of Ukranian descent, but raised in the NE US. Felt the call to defend his ancestral land or,
a paid security consultant.
i can't see the guys lips moving matching the audio
i have no view one way or another on agitation in the ukraine but i wouldn't consider this irrefutable evidence in itself
I am a Brit and I am having a hard time deciphering this one. I am pretty good with accents too.
Defo not an Aussie or a Saffer. I played it to another Brit and straight away he said the name of a mate of ours from London, but me, I hear more of an American accent, albeit only a slight accent, especially on the "please".
If it is someone not a native of England or US, that just speaks good English (really good) he could be from anywhere, but why say it in English if you aren't from an English speaking country?
I am American.
So is the guy in the Ukrainian uniform.
I would have been shocked if Americans did not have forces in Ukraine either private or government payroll. How else will we ensure that this conflict stays hot and gets hotter.
When the western economies tip far enough beyond the control of Central Bankers, war is all that's left to maintain power and try to shift it more into each side's gangsters control a bit more.
We are mere chattel.
At the end of the day who gives a shit where he's from? From all wailing of the comments I guess most of the commenters forgot about all the Merc work going on back in the day in Rhodesia, I'm sure they'd be wringing their collective hands over the devil western forces propping up the Smith government . Or in more recent history the in work in Bosnia
The only thing I'll say is for damn sure if it was a Special Forces man he would not have spoken English.
> At the end of the day who gives a shit where he's from?
Well, it doesn't matter in terms of world politics. What matters for that is who he was working for and what he was doing there - two questions that can not be answered by an accident.
I don't care where this individual is from, but found the discussion of English accents to be one of the best ever discussions in ZH comments. I enjoyed it emensely.
>two questions that can not be answered by an accident.
freakin' autocorrect! try "two questions that can not be answered by an accent"
This creep is from Vermont.
That dude is American as Apple Pie, barring some trickery with the audio.
Would be interesting to hear from some real military people to see if they have any comments regarding his 'uniform'/gear.
