Junta Forces Attempted Massive Attack on Donetsk Airport

_____________________________

Eduard Basurin, spokesman for the DNR Defence Ministry, said that junta forces attempted a massive attack against Donetsk Airport, shelling it with Grad and Uragan multiple rocket systems, saying, “Over the past day, our forces repelled massive attacks against the Donetsk Airport launched by Ukrainian troops on direct instructions from the Ukrainian President. They used large-calibre artillery and aircraft. We stopped Ukrainian armour that tried to storm us at a distance, and mostly destroyed it”. The general ratio of losses sustained by DNR forces as compared to junta troops is ten to one. Basurin said, “In the course of defensive operations, our forces destroyed 27 tanks and 20 armoured vehicles, and captured one tank. Ukrainian losses exceeded 200 killed and about 300 wounded. Our losses stand at 16 killed and 62 wounded. The airport and the areas around it are under the full control of DNR forces. At the moment, our forces are conducting a security sweep in Peski, close to the airport, from where Ukrainian artillery had shelled Donetsk residential areas and suburbs for the past few months”.

The junta forces obviously used frontal bulldozer tactics and paid the cost. Ignorant Galician Uniate fanatics with no real military training and discipline lead them. Ergo, the butcher’s bill is tremendous. As I say, look at the bright side… the Uniate fanatic trash are dying on the battlefield. It looks as though the Uniates learned nothing from their previous encounters with the patriot forces. “Slava Ukraina!”… well, let them scream that… it’s the last thing that they say before the Russians send them to their reward…

American-Made Weapons and Explosives Found at Donetsk Airport

________________________________

Eduard Basurin, deputy commander of the DNR forces, told journalists that the VSN found American-made weapons, as well as hundreds of high-power explosives, at Donetsk Airport, previously occupied by junta forces, saying, “During our investigation of the new terminal, our units found large numbers of American-made weapons, including M16A5 assault rifles and grenades, as well as means of communication”. Basurin related that they found hundreds of high-powered explosives, “if they simultaneously exploded, they’d make all of Donetsk shudder”. He told us that DNR engineering units are now neutralising the explosives.

The Donetsk Airport is turning out to be the Gori of this conflict so far. That is, much incriminating intel keeps turning up, and Langley keeps denying the obvious. They’ve gone to the well once too often, and their lies don’t have much cred anymore. In any case, the American public and forces are war-weary, and refuse to rise to Langley’s lies. There’s been 14 years of constant war in this-or-that foreign part, and everyone’s sick n’ tired of it all. Sorry, Ted Cruz and Marco Rubio… do notice that most of those who scream for war are Chicken Hawk cowards. Fancy that…

CyberBerkut Leaked Junta SBU Docs Showing Volnovakha Bus Attack Phony-Baloney False Flag Bogus Winnegan’s Fake

______________________________

Hackers from the CyberBerkut group published compromised SBU documents on their website. The group concluded that the shelling of the bus in Volnovakha could have been a junta SBU provocation. Hackers released letters and cryptograms of the Anti-Terrorist Centre of the SBU, confirming that SBU in the junta-occupied DNR could have planned and carried out the operation. The documents also contained information about how junta security organs used the incident for political purposes.

In a “confidential” letter of 13 January, SBU First Deputy Chief Vasili Gritsak instructed Gennady Kuznetsov, head of the Centre “A” of SBU Anti-Terrorist Centre, to plan a provocation, aimed at laying the blame for civilian deaths on patriot elements in the DNR and LNR. Gritsak ordered him “to plan and submit proposals for provocative actions, which would help to charge DNR and LNR forces with civilian deaths”.

CyberBerkut also published a cryptogram, where SBU operatives in the occupied DNR reported they’d implemented “a propaganda campaign to make the required informational impact on the Ukrainian population”. The SBU in the DNR sent this cryptogram to Kiev and Kramatorsk. CyberBerkut also released a list of media publications that accused patriot elements of shelling the bus.

On 13 January, a shell hit a passenger bus near Volnovakha south of Donetsk. The incident left 10 people dead and 17 injured. Junta strongman P A Poroshenko accused the DNR of carrying out the attack. The DNR denied involvement, calling Poroshenko’s statement a provocation, explaining that DNR artillery was too far away to reach the town or its environs.

The Uniates have their gotchies around their ankles! It looks like a badly carried out Langley op, botched because they used stumblebum locals. It’s the same as with the Roki Tunnel… instead of just using Blackwater mercs for a sterile op, they involved Georgians, which pranged the whole affair. The similarities between the Georgian aggression in South Ossetia and the junta aggression in Novorossiya betray a common origin of the plans… if you smell a locale in Northern Virginia, you just might be on the right path. Of course, I’m accusing nobody… trust me!

SYRIZA Calls for End to Austerity, But to Stay in EU… Calls EU Sanctions Against Russia Bad Policy

_________________________________

Panayiotis Lafazanis, the parliamentary spokesman for SYRIZA, told us that his bloc wouldn’t seek to remove Greece from the EU if it wins the parliamentary election this Sunday, but would press ahead with scrapping austerity measure, saying, “SYRIZA isn’t advocating that we quit the Eurozone or the EU. SYRIZA is proposing a plan on how to restore and reorganise the country, cancel the Memorandum [of Economic and Financial Policies] and the austerity policy, take leave of the troika of lenders, and follow through on a programme to fight the poverty that came because of the Memorandum, and, of course, to write off a bigger chunk of [national] debt. These are our priorities and we’re going to deliver on our agenda”.

Greece will vote in a snap election on 25 January. Prime Minister Antonis Samaras called the vote after the Hellenic Parliament rejected his candidate for President three times. Lafazanis said, “It’d do a lot of good to Greece, the entire region, and Europe. I believe that a SYRIZA victory would be a turning point for our country… it may also trigger a domino effect within the entire Euro space”. Speaking on Greek membership in the NATO military bloc, Lafazanis said that SYRIZA aimed to “free the country from neo-colonial shackles”. The anti-bailout SYRIZA bloc, or Coalition of the Radical Left, won a resounding victory over Samaras’s neoliberal New Democracy party in the European Parliament elections in May 2014, grabbing more than 26 percent of votes and sending six deputies to the European Parliament.

Lafazanis also said that SYRIZA would put an end to privatising ports and railroads, if it won the upcoming election, noting, “SYRIZA would stop the programme of privatisation and ‘extrusion’ of property out of the country. This is definite. Where ports are concerned, we won’t allow [privatisation]. This applies to all ports and, certainly, to the railroads”. Russian Railways is amongst those bidding on privatisation of a railroad network and port facilities in Thessaloniki. Lafazanis said, “We’d reorganise Greek railroads in a new enterprise, therefore, stopping their transformation, and they’d remain a state-run company”. Lafazanis also expressed his confidence that SYRIZA would gain the majority in the upcoming January 25 parliamentary election.

SYRIZA, a leftist and adamantly Eurosceptic bloc, is Greece’s second-largest political party. The latest pre-election polls showed SYRIZA having a lead over incumbent Prime Minister Antonis Samaras’ neoliberal centre-right New Democracy party of over 3 percentage points.

On Monday, Panayiotis Lafazanis, a leader of the Greek left-wing coalition SYRIZA, told us that EU sanctions against Russia are causing substantial damage to peace and stability throughout Europe, saying, “The EU policy of sanctions against Russia is very bad policy. This policy causes significant damage to Russian-European relations, damaging peace and stability throughout Europe. We don’t agree with imposing sanctions against Russia. We want good relations with Russia. A leftist government, should it come to power in Greece after the election, would try to improve ties with Russia. Absolutely nothing divides the people of Greece and the people of Russia. Greece and Russia have no problems that divide us. Good connections are the only way for our two nations and two states, and improving bilateral ties would help Greece, Russia, and, most certainly, all of Europe, the EU as a whole”.

Following Crimea’s reunification with Russia, the EU imposed several rounds of sanctions against Moscow. In August, Russia responded by introducing a one-year ban on imports of a number of food products from countries that imposed sanctions against it.

Even if SYRIZA wins in the election, the USA is a ravening aggressor. Look at Arbenz in Honduras, Allende in Chile, Lumumba in the Congo, Mossadegh in Iran, Diệm in the Republic of Vietnam, Gaddafi in Libya, Saddam in Iraq, and Milošević in Serbia… the USA didn’t scruple at toppling governments that they hated. They tried to topple Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Iran… but failed.

Look at 1948… the CIA toppled Ecumenical Patriarch Maximos Vaportzis (a leftist socialist) and replaced him with the lickspittle American bishop Athenagoras Spyrou. In the previous year, Winston Churchill gulled Harry Truman… he convinced him that Greece was about to fall to leftist rebels, mislabelling them “communists”. Truman was a naïf in foreign affairs, so, Churchill deceived him into the Cold War. Many Russians believe that the Berlin Crisis was a direct outgrowth of Russian fears of Western encirclement and attack, stimulated by Western military intervention in Greece against the native leftists. The Berlin Crisis broke out in June 1948, after Truman upped the ante in Greece in February 1947, at Churchill’s urging. The CIA toppling of Patriarch Maximos occurred in October 1948… after the Berlin Crisis occurred… one could see that it was an American move in the Grand Game. By the way, both Maximos and Athenagoras died in 1972… some “poor health!”

Therefore, even if SYRIZA wins, it’s not out of the woods. The USA has a history of aggression, starting with its wars of conquest against Native Americans (how many broken treaties were there?) and its war against Mexico to steal Tejas and Northwestern Mexico. They’d best keep their wits about them… there are many pro-American neoliberal quislings in Greece.
