On Saturday, Byelorussian television reported that the authorities carried out the death sentence against the principal accused in the case of the Minsk Metro bombing of last year, Dmitri Konovalov, as they had earlier for his accomplice, Vladislav Kovalyov. Kovalyov’s mother, Lyubov Kovalyova, who lives in Vitebsk, received a letter from the Supreme Court of Belarus informing her of the enforcement of the death penalty against her son. The letter had a postmark of 16 March, she said, noting, “The notice was dated by the Supreme Court on 16 March. Hence, they may have shot him before then. Perhaps, on 15 March“. Earlier, German Foreign Minister Guido Westerwelle {he’s a member of the Far Right laissez-faire Free Democratic Party: editor} demanded that Byelorussian President Aleksandr Lukashenko commute the death sentence of Dmitri Konovalov. He wrote, “I condemn the execution of the sentence pronounced by Kovalyov and regret that Byelorussian President Alexander Lukashenko ignored calls by the international community for a pardon”.

Editor’s Note:
Can’t you just see the condescension dripping from Westerwelle? His arrogance and hubris seep from his every pore. However, that’s Western Neoliberals (mistakenly called “conservatives” in the Anglosphere) for you. They consider themselves superior to us, and that’s that. We’re “little brown brothers” in need of “instruction” from our “enlightened” neighbours. Truly?
I’d say that two things shoot that down in flames. Firstly, let’s look at William Jefferson Clinton… his antics make Aleksandr Lukashenko look like an altar boy who never even peeped at a “feelthy pitcher”. Clinton employed James Carville and George Stephanopoulos, two of the most amoral and evil men ever to serve in politics. Why isn’t Herr Westerwelle agitated over THAT? They did things FAR worse than anything that Lukashenko allegedly did (and everyone bows and scrapes in front of them… that is, the politically-ambitious do).
Secondly, let’s take a case far closer to home for Herr Westerwelle and his Far Right cronies in Germany. At the time of German reunification, ex-DDR officials and civil servants were treated like shit by the likes of Herr Westerwelle. Virtually all of the officers and NCOs of the NVA were shitcanned without cause, without warning, and without a pension for their service. Note well that those who served the NAZI state get pensions… but that those who served the DDR do not. Trust me, it was the influence of creepozoids like the Free Democratic Party that gave us that situation. Nazis? No problem! Communists? Kick them in the face and titter like a lunatic! Ex-senior officers of the NVA had to work as cabbies or rent-a-cops… that’s what the Herr Westerwelles of this world did.
He’s got a lot of damned gall… but he’s not alone, is he? Just remember… the West hates the Orthosphere for rejecting its premises. You can’t expect true humanity and decent treatment from any of them, and that’s the way it is.

An image purporting to show a racist, anti-Obama bumper sticker on the back of a vehicle has been garnering lots of attention on Facebook in the past 24 hours. The bumper sticker reads, “Don’t Re-Nig in 2012”, and, in smaller print below, “Stop repeat offenders. Don’t re-elect Obama!” The sticker also features an image of the Obama campaign logo crossed out. Several viewers have claimed the image has been digitally altered. After all, it seems shocking that someone would proudly display an openly racist image on their vehicle in 2012. So, is the image authentic? In short, yes.
It’s still unclear if the image of the vehicle has been altered in any way, but a website called “Stumpy’s Stickers” offers the bumper sticker for sale for $3 (88 Roubles. 2.25 Euros. 1.90 UK Pounds), and, as The Root points out, the site also several other racially insensitive items for sale as well. The urban myth debunking site Snopes says it cannot yet determine the origins of the photo, but also points out the availability of other similar t-shirts and bumper stickers. There’s even an eponymous “Dontre-nig.com” website that appears to have crashed. Going to the page brings up a “Bandwith Limit Exceeded” warning message. I checked the domain registration service site WHOIS, which listed the site as belonging to an anonymous owner who purchased the URL through the company DomainsByProxy.com, based in Scottsdale, Arizona. The company specialises in keeping the names of Internet domain owners private. However, as one astute Facebook reader pointed out, the bumper sticker isn’t only offensive, it’s pretty dumb. After all, if you take the top message at its literal meaning, “to not renege in 2012”, would mean, in fact, to re-elect President Obama.
