Gorbachev: Murder of Opposition Leader Was a False Flag

George Washington's picture




 

Sniper attacks are commonly used as a form of false flag terror.

Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev says the the killing is aimed at “destabilizing the situation in the country, at heightening confrontation” with the West.

Gorbachev says:

The assassination of Boris Nemtsov is an attempt to complicate the situation in the country, even to destabilize it by ratcheting up tensions between the government and the opposition.

The Saker notes that Putin warned years ago that a false flag of this nature might occur.

Michael Rivero notes:

Another reason to doubt the “Blame Putin” chorus we are already seeing in the corporate media is the manner in which the shooting took place, in public, in front of the girlfriend, to generate the maximum publicity. If Putin had really wanted to kill this guy, it would have been a “suicide” in private or a small plane crash, the way the US Government handles assassinations.

 

The Kiev Snipers: Everyone Agrees That They Fired On BOTH SIDES

Sniper Attacks As False Flag Terror

Random shootings are a type of false flag terror

For example, in 1985 – as part of the “Gladio” (11-21) false flag operations –  snipers attacked and shot shoppers in supermarkets randomly in Brabant county, Belgium killing twenty-eight and leaving many wounded.

Both Sides?

Additionally, shooting both sides is a tip off that it may be a false flag.

 

Specifically, when authoritarian regimes want to break up protests, they might shoot protesters.

 

Likewise, when violent protesters shoot government employees, they might be trying to overthrow the government.

 

But when secretive snipers kill both protesters and the police, it is an indication of a “false flag” attacks meant to sow chaos, anger, disgust and a lack of legitimacy.

 

This has happened many times over the years. For example:

  • Unknown snipers reportedly killed both Venezuelan government and opposition protesters in the attempted 2002 coup

Snipers Fired At BOTH Police and Protesters In Ukraine

This happened during the Maidan protests which resulted in the overthrow of the Ukrainian government, as well.  Indeed, the ruthless slaughter of people by snipers was the event which turned world opinion against the then-current Ukrainian Prime Minister, and  resulted in him having to flee the country.

 

BBC recently interviewed the head of the opposition’s security forces at the time, who confirms that snipers were killing both protesters and police:

 

The former Ukranian government security boss said the same thing.  Specifically, he said:

Former chief of Ukraine’s Security Service has confirmed allegations that snipers who killed dozens of people during the violent unrest in Kiev operated from a building controlled by the opposition on Maidan square.

 

Shots that killed both civilians and police officers were fired from the Philharmonic Hall building in Ukraine’s capital, former head of the Security Service of Ukraine Aleksandr Yakimenko told Russia 1 channel. The building was under full control of the opposition and particularly the so-called Commandant of Maidan self-defense Andrey Parubiy who after the coup was appointed as the Secretary of the National Security and Defense Council of Ukraine, Yakimenko added.

So both the chief of the government’s security forces and the head of the opposition’s security forces said that the same snipers were killing both protesters and police.  While they disagree about who the snipers were, they both agree that the snipers were attempting to sow chaos.

Similarly:

[Current Ukrainian Health Minister Oleh] Musiy, who spent more than two months organizing medical units on Maidan, said that on Feb. 20 roughly 40 civilians and protesters were brought with fatal bullet wounds to the makeshift hospital set up near the square. But he said medics also treated three police officers whose wounds were identical.

 

Forensic evidence, in particular the similarity of the bullet wounds, led him and others to conclude that snipers were targeting both sides of the standoff at Maidan — and that the shootings were intended to generate a wave of revulsion so strong that it would topple Yanukovych and also justify a Russian invasion.

And the Estonian foreign minister – after visiting Ukraine – told the EU foreign affairs minister that the Maidan opposition deployed the snipers – and fired on both the protesters and the police – to discredit the former government of Ukraine.

Was It Maidan Who Fired?

While the American media has proclaimed that the sniper fire was definitely from government forces, some of the above-cited sources dispute that claim.

Additionally, BBC reported at the time:

Reporting for Newsnight, Gabriel Gatehouse said he saw what looked like a protester shooting out of a window at the BBC’s Kiev base, the Ukraine Hotel.

And BBC recently interviewed a Maidan protester who admitted that he fired a sniper rifle at police from the Conservatory, and that he was guided by a military veteran within the Maidan resistance. Here are actual pictures a reporter took of Maidan snipers, recently published by BBC:

 

gunmen at Kiev Conservatory 20 February

(There were reportedly at least 10 Maidan snipers firing from the Conservatory.)

 

The Frankfurther Allgemein reported last year that Maidan commander Volodymyr Parasjuk controlled the Conservatory at the time:

Volodymyr Parasjuk – the leader in “self-defense units” of the revolution who had called the night of Yanukovich’s escape, on the stage of Maidan to storm the presidential residence one year ago.

 

On the day of the massacre Parasjuk was staying with his unit in the colonnaded building of the Kiev Conservatory right at the Maidan. In the days before the death toll had risen, and the fighters grew the conviction alone with limited power as before will not be able to overthrow Yanukovych. “There were at that time many guys who said you have to take the weapon and attack,” said Parasjuk recalls. “Many,” he himself had since long ago it had firearms, often their officially registered hunting rifles.

Tagesschau – a German national and international television news service produced by state-run Norddeutscher Rundfunk on behalf of the German public-service television network ARD – also reported in 2014 that at least some of the sniper fire came from protesters.

 

And there are other photographs of protesters with rifles, such as this one from Reuters:

So the snipers might have been Maidan opposition forces shooting their own.

 

But – whoever the snipers were – the one thing that is clear is that they were shooting people from both as part of a “strategy of tension” to create maximum chaos. This hints that it may ave been a highly-organized campaign of terror.

Even looking to see who has more or less to gain or lose is going to be obfuscated like fuck these days.  Look at everything, draw your own conclusions, and understand that you're flat out going to be wrong in many cases.

The gun looks bigger than the kid in that last shot.

 

That's definitely not a pro tho certainly that is a scoped rifle.

 

Don't know why one person taken out in Moscow would destabilize the entire country.

 

Not that Turkey is looking any better here.

I saw two pellet rifles.  That's not to say that you want to get shot by a pellet rifle:

But if I some of my equipment and I had to pick between a guy with a hunting rifle and a guy with an airgun as my opponent in a fight to the death (with no choice to not fight to the death, of course,) I'd pick the airgun guy as my opponent.

Nemtsov was scheduled to lead an opposition ( read anti-Putin ) rally the following day. Why was he shot and by whom? If Putin wanted him gone he'd be gone without a trace. This is way too noisy and Putin is far too deft and clever. 

The shooting may have been set up to look like Putin's work. 

Nemtsov might have known too much and was silenced. Maybe he was a loose cannon, maybe started wandering off the reservation.

He was with his young Ukrainian girlfriend yet she was not hurt. Did she unknowingly lead him that way to his car which was parked nearby?

Could have been money gone wrong with the mob. Maybe he was taking more than his cut, or owed someone.

Could have been Mossad, MI5, CIA gorillas trying to inflame the Ukraine war even more, or maybe their Ukrainian mobster friends.

Could have been many things, but Putin ain't one one of them.

Thanks for the link. The picture that has emerged is one of a totally corrupt, failed existence trying to produce income from the US by leveraging left-over political capital from more than a decade ago, essentially twittering anti-Putin statements and serving as a multi-purpose opposition figure - but who was ultimately determined to add most value as a martyr-of-democracy, especially once it became clear for his US puppet masters that its "asset" was not only a notorious underperformer but also somewhat vulnerable due to a serious sex-addiction.

@Disenchanted, thanks for the link, another dot to connect.

Well waddya know. He worked as a banker for a bank that got shut down for money laundering. What else were they laundering. So he goes from Russian politics to director of Neftyanoi cook-the-books Bank. Then he had the nerve to loudly complain about corruption. Not very bright. His former associates would have come to light, maybe that's why he got whacked.

actually - i will toss this idea out there.  putin will 'personally' investigate in order to be sure

#1 - the hit he did not do doesn't fall on him.

and more importantly:

#2 - whoever did the hit, just doesn't get indentified, because that would also inflame peoples sentiments.

if the world REALLY had evidence of MH370, then things would happen, people would be upset.  right now, it

is simply over, people forget.  it the dutch and malaysian people had evidence that ukraine did it, that's a problem,

but, putin avoided that.  this was diplomatic.  it would have only created MANY more deaths.

he is sucking up a lot of CRAP from the west and we should all be thankful for it, because he is thinking longer term for russia,

and that does not mean russia being a bully and bombing anybody with assets it thinks it wants.  as the usa has done since

birth in 1492.

It looks like the US did it? Anything is possible. The false flag could be that Putin did it, but did  it in such a way that it would look like the US did it as a false flag to frame Putin.

No comparison. One does everything in his power to protect his country and increase its prosperity. One does everything in his power to shred the Constitution and turn his country into a Marxist police state.

Are you kidding? Marx and Corzine would get along just fine. Two of a kind parasites. Marx and Engels published the blueprint for widespread public theft. The idea is for the peasants to work and produce, and for the parasites to control the money and products. 

Same today as it was almost 200 years ago when Marx spent his time as a nonstop "student" who saw no reason to pay his bills because he knew his wife's family would pay them out of embarrassment. He thought himself so smart that everybody owed it to him.

Corzine and all his Fed, IRS, and financial scammer friends operate along those same lines. With all our ripped off money they abuse the military to make hell on Earth to loot other nations, and pay off politicians at home and abroad, then stick us with the bill.
