FTR#1241 and FTR#1242: How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lies?, Parts 14 and 15
Continuing our coverage of the Ukraine War, we note Gennadiy Druzenko–the head of Ukraine’s Military Medical Service– and his order to castrate all Russian POW’s.
Can you imagine the media uproar if the head of Russia’s military medical branch gave an order to castrate all Ukrainian POW’s?
The program begins with a synoptic, telescoped view of the OUN/B, a key component of the Gehlen “Org,” itself a front for the Odessa–the Nazi SS postwar operational underground.
The program begins with a synoptic, telescoped view of the OUN/B, a key component of the Gehlen “Org,” itself a front for the Odessa–the Nazi SS postwar operational underground.
” . . . . His [Gehlen’s] FHO was connected in this role with a number of secret fascist organizations in the countries to Germany’s east. These included Stepan Bandera’s ‘B Faction’ of the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN/B),15Romania’s Iron Guard,16 the Ustachis of Yugoslavia,17 the Vanagis of Latvia. . . . The military intelligence historian Colonel William Corson put it most succinctly, ‘Gehlen’s organization was designed to protect the Odessa Nazis. It amounts to an exceptionally well-orchestrated diversion.’. . .”
The discussion accesses a post Mr. Emory crafted in November of 2015.
Pravy Sektor associate Valentyn Nalyvaichenko had been the head of the SBU (Ukrainian intelligence service) since the Maidan Coup, up until his ouster in June of 2015. Not surprisingly, he had operated the organization along the lines of the OUN/B.
Previously, he had served in that same capacity under Viktor Yuschenko, seeing the outfit as a vehicle for rewriting Ukraine’s history in accordance with the historical revisionism favored by the OUN/B.
Very close to Pravy Sektor head Dymitro Yarosh, Nalyvaichenko employed Yarosh while serving in the Ukrainian parliament. Yarosh claims that the two collaborated on “anti-terrorist” operations conducted against ethnic Russians.
Bear in mind that the SBU has been the “cognitive window” through which the events in Ukraine have been processed.
The “serial,” cascading amalgamation of Ukrainian fascist national security elements is exemplified by Anton Geraschenko, the spelling of whose name varies. A key operative of the Azov milieu, he not only shepherded “Profexer,” the alleged mastermind of the DNC “hack,” but may well have been a principal behind the “PropOrNot” list of journalists who were “unacceptable” to the establishment in Ukraine (see below.)
Of paramount importance as well is the role of the SBU, networking with the various OUN/B successor organizations in perpetrating terror against the Ukrainian population.
Do not fail to note former SBU director Nalyvaichenko’s links to the CIA and to the U.S., via the George W. Bush administration.
The fawning Western coverage of the Ukraine War may be seen through the lens of Zelensky’s “Total War” declaration: ” . . . . While Western media homes in on Russian human rights violations at home and inside Ukraine, the Ukrainian government has authorized a propaganda campaign known as ‘Total War’ that includes the planting of bogus images and false stories to further implicate Russia. . . .”
The OUN/B milieu in the U.S. has apparently been instrumental in generating disinformation vis a vis alleged “Russian” disinformation in U.S. media.
Note that the PropOrNot group may well be an extension of Anton Geraschenko’s Myrotvotets hacker/journalist intimidation group.
” . . . One PropOrNot tweet, dated November 17, invokes a 1940s Ukrainian fascist salute “Heroiam Slava!!”[17] to cheer a news item on Ukrainian hackers fighting Russians. The phrase means ‘Glory to the heroes’ and it was formally introduced by the fascist Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) at their March-April 1941 congress in Nazi occupied Cracow, as they prepared to serve as Nazi auxiliaries in Operation Barbarossa. . . . ‘the OUN‑B introduced another Ukrainian fascist salute at the Second Great Congress of the Ukrainian Nationalists in Cracow in March and April 1941. This was the most popular Ukrainian fascist salute and had to be performed according to the instructions of the OUN‑B leadership by raising the right arm ‘slightly to the right, slightly above the peak of the head’ while calling ‘Glory to Ukraine!’ (Slava Ukraїni!) and responding ‘Glory to the Heroes!’ (Heroiam Slava!). . . .”
Was “Team Geraschenko” involved in the smearing of Robert Parry, who was defamed by the PropOrNot group?
” . . . . The website, ‘Myrotvorets’ [43] or ‘Peacemaker’—was set up by Ukrainian hackers working with state intelligence and police, all of which tend to share the same ultranationalist ideologies as Parubiy and the newly-appointed neo-Nazi chief of the National Police. . . . The website is designed to frighten and muzzle journalists from reporting anything but the pro-nationalist party line, and it has the backing of government officials, spies and police—including the SBU (Ukraine’s successor to the KGB), the powerful Interior Minister Avakov and his notorious far-right deputy, Anton Geraschenko [closely associated with the Azov Battalion].
“Ukraine’s journalist blacklist website—operated by Ukrainian hackers working with state intelligence—led to a rash of death threats against the doxxed journalists, whose email addresses, phone numbers and other private information was posted anonymously to the website. Many of these threats came with the wartime Ukrainian fascist salute: ‘Slava Ukraini!’ [Glory to Ukraine!] So when PropOrNot’s anonymous ‘researchers’ reveal only their Ukrainian(s) identity, it’s hard not to think about the spy-linked hackers who posted the deadly ‘Myrotvorets’ blacklist of ‘treasonous’ journalists. . . .”
Parry subsequently died of a fast-acting case of cancer.
Anton Geraschenko was also involved in handling “Profexer”–the dubious alleged crafter of the [outdated] software allegedly used in the alleged “hack” of the DNC.
FTR#1240 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lies?, Part 13
Maintaining the untenable PR façade that the Nazification of Ukraine is a myth, Zelensky showed the “True Yellow and Blue” in a video appearance before the Greek parliament.
Appearing with a member of the Nazi Azov fighting formations, Zelensky manifested the grotesque political reality of which he is part.
“ . . . . On Thursday a major row erupted when Zelensky brought along a Ukrainian soldier of Greek heritage from the city of Mariupol, who just happened to be a member of the neo-Nazi Azov Regiment. Greece was under Nazi occupation during World War II and fought a bitter partisan war against Nazism (later to be betrayed by Britain and the United States.). . . . Former Finance Minister Yanis Varoufakis’ MeRA25 party said the event turned into a ‘Nazi fiesta.’. . .”
Recall that his political patron is Ihor Kolomoisky, who financed Zelensky’s presidential campaign, owns the TV network that boosted him to public prominence, who was a major financier of the Azov Battalion and who owned a controlling interest in Burisma, featuring Hunter Biden on the board of directors.
It was in his position as a Burisma director that Hunter expedited the apparent biological warfare projects overlapping those involved in the “Oswald Institute of Virology.”
That places Hunter Biden in the mix of “The Bandera Institute of Virology,” if you will.
With allegations of Russian war crimes being bandied about and the hyperbole of Joe Biden and others reaching new depths of distortion and dishonesty, we examine a story that raises serious questions about another of the iconic “Russian war crimes” incidents, the “bombing” of the Mariupol maternity hospital.
Note that Mariupol, like Bucha, is defended by Azov/Nazi military units.
“ . . . .The perishing of eyewitnesses to the real events at the maternity hospital is convenient for the Associated Press and Azov Battalion alike. After all, dead people tell no tales. Having anyone able to testify to the on-the-ground reality of incidents such as the dubious theater bombing or the maternity hospital ‘airstrike’ is inherently problematic to the Ukrainian cause. . . .”
“ . . . . And though the AP has had reporters on the ground in Ukraine throughout the conflict with Russia, the organization remains silent about transgressions unfolding right before the eyes of its staff. Case in point: the presence of an AP photographer at the hospital gave it a front row seat for Azov Battalion’s occupation of the facility and its transformation of the site into a base of operations. . . But the agency avoided any mention of this critical piece of context, showing Western audiences what Azov Battalion wants them to see. . . .”
“ . . . . On April 2, within hours of the publication of photos and videos purporting to show victims of an alleged Russian massacre, Ukrainian media reported that specialist units had begun ‘clearing the area of saboteurs and accomplices of Russian troops.’ Nothing was said about dead bodies in the streets. . . . The National Police of Ukraine announced that day that they were ‘cleaning the territory…from the assistants of Russian troops,’ publishing video that showed no corpses in the streets of Bucha and Ukrainian forces in full control of the city. . . .”
Key points of analysis and discussion include: Residents attempting to flee the city were prevented by the authorities from doing so; the maternity hospital had been utilized by the Ukrainian military; despite the strong probability that the hospital was damaged by an artillery shell, AP journalists—apparently embedded with Azov combatants—negated the testimony of hospital patients about the artillery strike; the AP/Azov-embedded journalists propagated the story that the hospital had been hit by a deliberate Russian airstrike; the AP journalist who had been the source of the “Russian airstrike” story had also been at the Maidan and sympathetic to the Nazi-rich milieu involved in that false-flag operation; AP has been distributing Azov photographs; the estimates of the casualties in the maternity hospital incident are wildly inconsistent; there are reports that survivors of the maternity hospital attack may have been taken to the Mariupol drama theater and positioned at the exact place that the “Russian missile” struck in another dubious “Russian war crime;” Western nations have—so far—blocked a Russian request to have the UN investigate the Bucha “war crimes;” Both Azov combatants and Ukrainian police were engaged in “clean-up operations” in which Russian “collaborators” were “dealt with.”
We conclude with analysis of the Georgian Legion, an element of the Ukrainian “Foreign Legion” which is implicated in the false-flag sniper shootings in the Maidan coup and has admitted committing summary executions of Russian POW’s.
The Georgian Legion is not an isolated, eclipsed entity, but rather, one that is led by Mamuka Mamulashvili, networked with adoring U.S. political figures.
“ . . . . In an interview this April, Mamulashvili, was asked about a video showing Russian fighters who had been extrajudicially executed in Dmitrovka, a town just five miles from Bucha. Mamulashvili was candid about his unit’s take-no-prisoners tactics, though he has denied involvement in the specific crimes depicted. ‘We will not take Russian soldiers, as well as Kadyrovites [Chechnyan fighters]; in any case, we will not take prisoners, not a single person will be captured,’ Mamulashvili said, implying that his fighters execute POWs. . . .”
As indicated above, Mamulashvili is implicated in the Maidan false-flag shootings:
“ . . . . [Professor] Ivan Katchanovski, a professor of political science at the University of Ottawa, is among those who believe Mamulashvili’s allies were likely among those who fired on protesters from buildings over Maidan Square, generating bloodshed that was ultimately blamed on Ukraine’s then-government. . . . ‘Testimonies by several Georgian self-admitted members of Maidan sniper groups for the Maidan massacre trial and investigation and their interviews in American, Italian and Israeli TV documentaries and Macedonian and Russian media are generally consistent with findings of my academic studies of the Maidan massacre,’ Katchanovski commented to The Grayzone. . . .”
This discussion will be continued in the next broadcast.
FTR#1239 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lies?, Part 12
This program continues coverage of the Ukraine war with particular emphasis on the decisively important overlap between the institutions implicated in the creation of SARS CoV‑2 and the Covid-19 “op” and the Pentagon financing of the apparent biological warfare programs in Ukraine.
A remarkable aspect of the Journal’s coverage of the WHO’s resumption of inquiry into the origins of Covid-19 concerns a development that has been almost completely excised from the Western press: ” . . . . For months, China’s government has insisted both in public, and in private meetings with Dr. Tedros, that studies on the origins of the virus should now focus on other countries, such as Italy, or on a U.S. military bioresearch facility in Fort Detrick, Md. Dozens of governments aligned with China have sent Dr. Tedros letters in support of Beijing’s position, a person familiar with the letters said. . . .”
“Dozens of governments?” Which ones? This sounds like a major international dialogue/scandal.
WHY aren’t we hearing about it?
Pompeo State Department officials pursuing the lab-leak hypothesis were told to cover it up lest it shed light on U.S. government funding of research at the “Oswald Institute of Virology!”: ” . . . . In one State Department meeting, officials seeking to demand transparency from the Chinese government say they were explicitly told by colleagues not to explore the Wuhan Institute of Virology’s gain-of-function research, because it would bring unwelcome attention to U.S. government funding of it. . . . In an internal memo obtained by Vanity Fair, Thomas DiNanno, former acting assistant secretary of the State Department’s Bureau of Arms Control, Verification, and Compliance, wrote that. . . staff from two bureaus . . . ‘warned’ leaders within his bureau ‘not to pursue an investigation into the origin of COVID-19’ because it would ‘open a can of worms’ if it continued.’ . . . . As the group probed the lab-leak scenario, among other possibilities, its members were repeatedly advised not to open a ‘Pandora’s box,’ said four former State Department officials interviewed by Vanity Fair. . . .”
Although heavily spun–as would be expected from a Daily Mail article–this story not only has important implications for the war in Ukraine, but also resonates with our long series on “The Oswald Institute of Virology.”
We note that there are significant connections between the agency overseeing the Ukrainian projects and institutions implicated in the apparent “bio-skullduggery” surrounding the U.S. biological warfare gambit involving what Mr. Emory has termed “The Oswald Institute of Virology.” This is discussed in: FTR#‘s 1157–1159, 1170, 1183 through 1193, and 1215.
The essence of the “Oswald Institute of Virology” gambit concerns the DTRA and Pentagon funding of bat-borne coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, much of it through Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance. Once the research was complete, it resulted in publication which included the genome of the bat viruses being researched. Using technology discussed below, the viruses were then synthesized from scratch and population groups were vectored with the same viral strains being researched by the WIV.
It turns out that Hunter Biden–a member of the board of directors at Burisma–was instrumental in securing funding for EcoHealth Alliance partner Metabiota, described in a screen shot of an e‑mail as being “to the DOA what Palantir is to CIA.”
Both EcoHealth Alliance and Metabiota have been involved with bat-borne coronavirus at the WIV.
Note that–” . . . . ‘His [Hunter Biden’s] father was the Vice President of the United States and in charge of relations with Ukraine.’ . . .”
Previously we have noted then Vice-President Joe Biden’s close relationship with U.S. Ambassador Geoffrey Pyatt and Ukrainaian fascist Andriy Parubiy during the Maidan coup, which centered on false-flag sniper killings from buildings controlled by Svoboda (formerly the Social National Party of Ukraine, founded by Parubiy.)
Svoboda occupied key positions in the provisional post-Maidan Ukrainian government and wields significant influence to this day.
Highlights of the Discussion:
1.–” . . . . The commander of the Russian Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Protection Forces, claimed there was a ‘scheme of interaction between US government agencies and Ukrainian biological objects’ and pointed to the ‘financing of such activities by structures close to the current US leadership, in particular the investment fund Rosemont Seneca, which is headed by Hunter Biden.’. . .”
2.–” . . . . Moscow’s claim that Hunter Biden helped finance a US military ‘bioweapons’ research program in Ukraine is at least partially true, according to new emails obtained exclusively by DailyMail.com. . . .”
3.–” . . . . emails from Hunter’s abandoned laptop show he helped secure millions of dollars of funding for Metabiota, a Department of Defense contractor specializing in research on pandemic-causing diseases that could be used as bioweapons. . . .”
4.–” . . . . Metabiota has been an official partner of EcoHealth Alliance since 2014, according to its website. . . .”
5.–” . . . . He also introduced Metabiota to an allegedly corrupt Ukrainian gas firm, Burisma, for a ‘science project’ involving high biosecurity level labs in Ukraine . . . .”
6.–” . . . . Emails and defense contract data reviewed by DailyMail.com suggest that Hunter had a prominent role in making sure Metabiota was able to conduct its pathogen research just a few hundred miles from the border with Russia. . . .”
7.–” . . . . Metabiota has worked in Ukraine for Black & Veatch, a US defense contractor with deep ties to military intelligence agencies, which built secure labs in Ukraine that analyzed killer diseases and bioweapons. . . .”
8.–” . . . . Hunter was also particularly involved in Metabiota’s operations in Ukraine. Hunter’s pitches to investors claimed that they not only organized funding for the firm, they also helped it ‘get new customers’ including ‘government agencies in case of Metabiota’. . . .”
9.–” . . . . Former senior CIA officer Sam Faddis, who has reviewed emails on Hunter’s laptop, told DailyMail.com that the offer to help assert Ukraine’s independence was odd for a biotech executive [Metabiota vice-president Mary Guttieri]. ‘It raises the question, what is the real purpose of this venture? It’s very odd,’ he said. . . .”
10.–” . . . . Guttieri had a leading role in Metabiota’s Ukraine operations, meeting with other company executives and US and Ukrainian military officials in October 2016 to discuss ‘cooperation in surveillance and prevention of especially dangerous infectious diseases, including zoonotic diseases in Ukraine and neighboring countries’ according to a 2016 report by the Science and Technology Center in Ukraine. . . .”
11.–” . . . . Four days after Guttieri’s April 2014 email, Burisma executive Vadym Pozharskyi wrote to Hunter revealing that the then-Vice President’s son had pitched a ‘science project’ involving Burisma and Metabiota in Ukraine. ‘As I understand the Metabiota was a subcontract to principal contactor of the DoD B&V [Black & Veatch]. . . .”
12.–” . . . . Faddis told DailyMail.com that the attempt to get Metabiota to form a partnership with Burisma was a perplexing and worrying revelation. ‘His father was the Vice President of the United States and in charge of relations with Ukraine. So why was Hunter not only on the board of a suspect Ukrainian gas firm, but also hooked them up with a company working on bioweapons research?’ Faddis said. . . .”
13.–” . . . . ‘The DoD position is that . . . . this is pandemic early warning research. We don’t know for sure that’s all that was going on. . . .”
14.–” . . . . Government spending records show the Department of Defense awarded an $18.4million contract to Metabiota between February 2014 and November 2016, with $307,091 earmarked for ‘Ukraine research projects’. . . .”
15.–” . . . . The US Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) also commissioned B&V to build a Biological Safety Level 3 laboratory in Odessa, Ukraine in 2010, which ‘provided enhanced equipment and training to effectively, safely and securely identify especially dangerous pathogens’ according to a company press release. Such labs are used to ‘study infectious agents or toxins that may be transmitted through the air and cause potentially lethal infections,’ the US Department of Health and Human Services says. . . .”
16.–” . . . . In another sign of the deep ties between Metabiota and the Department of Defense, Hunter’s RSTP business partner Rob Walker said he would ‘have a friend reach out to DoD on the down low’, in order to prove the company’s bona fides to top prospective investors Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley in October 2014. . . .”
17.–” . . . . Metabiota also has close ties to the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), suspected to be the source of the COVID-19 outbreak. WIV was a hotspot for controversial ‘gain of function’ research that can create super-strength viruses. Chinese scientists performed gain of function research on coronaviruses at the WIV, working alongside a US-backed organization EcoHealth Alliance that has since drawn intense scrutiny over its coronavirus research since the COVID-19 pandemic. Researchers from the Wuhan institute, Metabiota and EcoHealth Alliance published a study together in 2014 on infectious diseases from bats in China, which notes that tests were performed at the WIV. Shi Zhengli, the WIV Director of the Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases who became dubbed the ‘bat lady’ for her central role in bat coronavirus research at the lab, was a contributor to the paper. . . .”
FTR#1238 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lie?, Part 11
This program continues our coverage of the Ukraine war. The title comes from the late, brilliant political comedian Mort Sahl’s 1976 autobiography Heartland. One of New Orleans DA Jim Garrison’s investigation of the assassination of the JFK.
In Consortium News, Joe Lauria presents Pentagon intelligence which, like the information presented by Bill Arkin in the Newsweek piece we covered in FTR#1237, lays out information fundamentally in contrast to what De Bretton-Gordon has voiced and which Joe Biden has taken at face value.
” . . . . Reuters reported: ‘The United States has not yet seen any concrete indications of an imminent Russian chemical or biological weapons attack in Ukraine but is closely monitoring streams of intelligence for them, a senior U.S. defense official said.’ It quoted the Pentagon official as saying, ‘There’s no indication that there’s something imminent in that regard right now.’. . .”
Hamish de Bretton Gordon – the same figure who was warning the world about Russian forces releasing COVID-Ebola from a Ukrainian biolab – is now warning of impending Russian chemical attacks. And when it comes to making bogus claims about chemical attacks, de Bretton Gordon isn’t lacking in experience, having set the table for false-flag chemical attacks in Syria: “ . . . . Other forms of evidence were also collected on-the-ground by de Bretton-Gordon, and provided to a number of official investigations into chemical attacks. In at least one instance – an OPCW/UN Joint Investigative Mechanism (JIM) probe into a purported chemical strike in Talmenes, April 2014 – videos submitted by CBRN Taskforce, a shady organization he founded in Aleppo, were found to show clear signs of falsification. . . .”
Oleh Tihanybok, leader of the OUN/B successor organization Svoboda, originally organized by Andriy Parubiy.
Joe Biden has taken the inflammatory, weaponized rhetoric and propaganda disseminated by the likes of Hamish de Bretton-Gordon and obedient media outlets at face value.
His uncritical embrace of this apocalyptic verbiage sets the stage for World War III.
Consummately ironic is Biden’s use of the terms “cynical” and “obscene” in his dismissal of the validity of Putin’s stated war goal of “De-Nazification.”
As will be detailed in forthcoming programs and posts, then Vice-President Joe Biden was involved with the networking through which the Svoboda organization and Andriy Parubiy effected the Maidan coup.
As the point man in U.S.-Ukrainian relations, Biden bears great responsibility for the ascent of the Nazi elements dominant in contemporary Ukraine.
Igor Kolomoisky is the oligarch who: Was the primary financier of Zelensky’s presidential campaign; Owned the television network on which Zelensky developed his public persona—leading to his ascent to the presidency of Ukraine; Was a primary financier of the Azov Battalion, one of the most important Nazi units in the Ukrainian military and the parent organization of the National Druzhyna Militia (which served as election monitors for Zelensky’s ballot run).
Kolomoisky also maintained a controlling interest in Burisma, the natural gas company on which Hunter Biden served as a director.
It was his position as a director of Burisma that was the foundation of his development of an apparent U.S./Ukrainian biological warfare program, involving Pentagon financing and heavily overlapping the elements figuring in Mr. Emory’s “Oswald Institute of Virology” expose.
Although heavily spun–as would be expected from a Daily Mail article–our concluding story not only has important implications for the war in Ukraine, but also resonates with our long series on “The Oswald Institute of Virology.”
We note that there are significant connections between the agency overseeing the Ukrainian projects and institutions implicated in the apparent “bio-skullduggery” surrounding the U.S. biological warfare gambit involving what Mr. Emory has termed “The Oswald Institute of Virology.” This is discussed in: FTR#‘s 1157–1159, 1170, 1183 through 1193, and 1215.

FTR#1237 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lie?, Part 10
This program continues our coverage of the Ukraine war. The title comes from the late, brilliant political comedian Mort Sahl’s 1976 autobiography Heartland. One of New Orleans DA Jim Garrison’s investigation of the assassination of the JFK .
A new piece by Bill Arkin in Newsweek presents information from Pentagon sources—speaking on condition of anonymity—that contradicts the MSM/Azov Zelensky/Biden claim that Russia is “indiscriminately bombing” civilians in Ukraine. That dynamic has been highlighted by the massive explosions observed at a mall in Kyiv. A mall that Russia claims was being used to store MLRS rocket launchers. It’s a claim confirmed by independent reporters, underscoring how much of the fighting in Ukraine’s cities is taking place because that’s where much of the military hardware is located.
The anonymous Pentagon officials Arkin spoke with said that Russia has actually been holding back from engaging in the indiscriminate bombing of civilian areas. According to these officials, we are seeing a highly limited urban bombing campaign primarily focused on military targets.
” . . . . ‘We need to understand Russia’s actual conduct,’ says a retired Air Force officer, a lawyer by training who has been involved in approving targets for U.S. fights in Iraq and Afghanistan. The officer currently works as an analyst with a large military contractor advising the Pentagon and was granted anonymity in order to speak candidly. In the analyst’s view . . . the Russian military has actually been showing restraint in its long-range attacks. . . . As of the past weekend, in 24 days of conflict, Russia has flown some 1,400 strike sorties and delivered almost 1,000 missiles (by contrast, the United States flew more sorties and delivered more weapons in the first day of the 2003 Iraq war). . . .”
Modern Times: Celebration of the 75th Anniversary of the 14th Waffen SS Division in Lviv, Ukraine in summer of 2018. THIS is what lurks beneath the thin facade of Zelensky’s democracy.
With the Azov Regiment in charge of Ukrainian military operations in Mariupol, we should be braced for characteristic Azov behavior–bloody provocations or “False Flag” operations branded as Russian “War Crimes.’
Indeed “Azov” Zelensky’s presidential campaign was largely funded by Azov-financier Igor Kolomoisky, who also owns the TV network on which Zelensky burnished his media chops. (The election monitors for his election were Azov’s National Druzhyna Militia.)
In FTR#1236, we noted that there are no longer any international reporters in Mariupol and that the information the world receives about what is going on there comes from the Azov Regiment.
Max Blumenthal has penned an excellent, and altogether necessary, expose of the Azov Regiment’s probable false-flag operation in Mariupol.
“ . . . . A closer look reveals that local residents in Mariupol had warned three days before the March 16 incident that the theater would be the site of a false flag attack launched by the openly neo-Nazi Azov Battalion, which controlled the building and the territory around it. Civilians that escaped the city through humanitarian corridors have testified that they were held by Azov as human shields in area, and that Azov fighters detonated parts of the theater as they retreated. Despite claims of a massive Russian airstrike that reduced the building to ashes, all civilians appear to have escaped with their lives. . . .”
Another Gray Zone article gives insight into how the Mariupol theater provocation becomes accepted fact in the Western media.
Ostensibly an objective media voice, presenting factual, unbiased coverage of the Ukraine war, the BBC has twined with British intelligence, employing an overt Ukrainian “nationalist’–Orysia Khimiak–to craft a propagandized account of the combat in Ukraine.
“Before serving as a fixer and reporter for the BBC in Ukraine, Orysia Khimiak handled PR for a start-up called Reface which created what the Washington Post called a ‘reality distorting app’ now serving as ‘a kind of Ukrainian war-messaging tool.’ . . . . As The Grayzone reported in February 2021, the British broadcaster’s non-profit arm, BBC Media Action, participated in a covert UK Foreign Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO) program explicitly designed to ‘weaken Russia.’ As seen below, UK FCDO documents revealed that BBC Media Action proposed working through a private British contractor called Aktis to cultivate and grow pro-NATO media in conflict areas like the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine, now the focal point of fighting between pro-Russian forces and the Ukrainian military. . . .The BBC’s secret information warfare initiative had turned the network into an arm of British intelligence, operating as an actor in a foreign conflict which its broadcast media arm was simultaneously claiming to cover in an objective manner. Now, the BBC has shed any pretense of objectivity by hiring an overtly nationalist Ukrainian public relations operative to shape its coverage of one of the most heavily disputed incidents in a war filled with cynical deceptions.”
FTR#1236 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lie?, Part 9
In the ongoing series about the Ukraine War, Mr. Emory has put forth a metaphor: the war itself and the attendant coverage as a “philosopher’s stone” alchemically changing American and Western institutions and individuals into the same political and intellectual fabric of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory.
That institution is an epicenter of Orwellian historical revisionism, rewriting the World War II history of Ukraine in such a way as to whitewash the war crimes of the OUN and UPA. Bandera headed up the OUN/B, the principal Third Reich collaborator during World War II.
Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi exemplifies that grim political alchemy.
Prior to a video appearance by Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky, she greeted Zelensky with the OUN/B salute–which is now the official salute of both the Ukrainian military and police establishments.
” . . . . House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Wednesday, greet Mr. Zelensky with ‘Slava Ukraini!,’—‘Glory to Ukraine’—a greeting used by Bandera’s troops. . . .”
Since the Maidan coup in 2014, we have rigorously chronicled the decisive involvement in that event of the Ukrainian fascist milieu that ascended to the pinnacle of power in that benighted country.
The Nazi collaborationist nature of the regime in power in Ukraine is being systematically whitewashed.
Reflecting on the sheer volume of documentation we have presented about the ascent of the OUN/B Nazis collaborators, we present a couple of snapshots from those archives.
First, we note that Andriy Parubiy–founder of the Social National Party of Ukraine (later re-named Svcoboda)–was one of the organizers of the so-called “Orange Revolution” that brought to power Viktor Yuschenko (and his wife, U.C.C.A. operative and Deputy Director of Public Liaison under R0nald Reagan).
His role as “Commander of Maidan” placed him in close contact with then U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Geoffrey Pyatt. Then Vice-President Joe Biden was networked with Pyatt at the time. Parubiy has been accused of helping to arrange the sniper fire that killed both protesters and police, leading to the ouster of Yanukovych.
” . . . . Parubiy was going in and out of Hotel Ukraina, from where numerous deadly shots were being fired. . . . Parubiy, who, according to former US Vice President Joe Biden, was conferring with the US Ambassador to Ukraine, Geoffrey Pyatt throughout the upheavals almost on an hourly basis, has never really had his role in the putsch explained. . . .”
Yuschenko elevated Volodymyr Viatrovych to power, eventually becoming head of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory.
On the subject of propaganda and information war in Ukraine, we note that Zelensky is the point man of that information war and that he is a protege of key Azov financier Igor Kolomoisky.
“Azov” Zelensky is the point element in a—thus far—eminently successful information war. The dimension and success of the propaganda crafted and disseminated OUN/B successor elements in charge of Ukraine’s governmental machinery would make Goebbels proud.
Consummately ironic is the meme resoundingly echoed in this country that PUTIN is waging an information war of lies!
The derisive dismissal of Russian claims concerning animal vectors positioned in Ukraine to deliver biological weapons into Russia ignore critical information.
In addition to the fact that we have developed exhaustive documentation of U.S. authorship of the Covid-19, indicative of a U.S. willingness to employ biological warfare in pursuit of its strategic objectives, Nick Turse chronicled the development of mammalian, reptilian, aquatic and insect life forms as adjuncts to warfare.
This book was published in 2008!
As discussed in FTR#1235, documents removed by the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine–but archived by the Wayback Machine–confirm that the DTRA is among the sources of funding for DOD-financed labs in Ukraine.
We note that there are significant connections between the agency overseeing the Ukrainian projects and institutions implicated in the apparent “bio-skullduggery” surrounding the U.S. biological warfare gambit involving what Mr. Emory has termed “The Oswald Institute of Virology.” This is discussed in: FTR#‘s 1157–1159, 1170, 1183 through 1193, and 1215.
The essence of the “Oswald Institute of Virology” gambit concerns the DTRA and Pentagon funding of bat-borne coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, much of it through Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance. Once the research was complete, it resulted in publication which included the genome of the bat viruses being researched. Using technology discussed below, the viruses were then synthesized from scratch and population groups were vectored with the same viral strains being researched by the WIV.
One must ask the question, also, as to why the Embassy suddenly removed these documents?
A critical understanding of the virulent, overwhelming lying in which the Ukrainian government is engaging can be gleaned from Mariupol. That city is in control of the Nazi Azov regiment, who control the flow of information from the besieged metropolis.
With Zelensky—a protégé of major Azov financier Igor Kolomoisky—parroting the Nazi formation’s rhetoric and being uncritically accepted by Ukraine’s, it can be said that the West, Biden’s USA in particular, belongs to the lie.
The pronouncements coming out of Mariupol should be understood in the circumstantial context of the fact that all of the international reporters are out of the city.
In addition, the fact that reportage reaching the West has been buttressed by hand-picked advocates of the Zelensky regime should be factored into analysis of the credibility of the battlefield reportage reaching the U.S.
An excellent piece of reporting by Max Blumenthal for the Gray Zone. Noting “Azov” Zelensky’s hyperbole about the “Russian bombing” of the drama theater in Mariupol—Blumenthal reports on local residents’ voluminous accounts of an Azov provocation. Far from being “indiscriminately” bombed by the Russians, Azov appears to have planted and detonated explosive charges, destroying the theater.
Note that the Ukrainian charge of Russia attacking a Turkish mosque was Azov/Zelensky propaganda as well.
Perhaps the most disturbing aspect of this disinformation is the apparent attempt by “Team Azov” to draw the U.S. and NATO into direct conflict with Russia by creating imaginary atrocities, which—thus far—have been uncritically accepted by the West.
U.S. Embassy Scrubbed Information About Pentagon Bio-Labs in Ukraine
As discussed in FTR#1235, documents removed by the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine–but archived by the Wayback Machine–confirm that the DTRA is among the sources of funding for DOD-financed bio-labs in Ukraine. We present that information here. We note that there are significant connections between the agency overseeing the Ukrainian projects and institutions implicated in the apparent “bio-skullduggery” surrounding the U.S. biological warfare gambit involving what Mr. Emory has termed “The Oswald Institute of Virology.” This is discussed in: FTR#‘s 1157–1159, 1170, 1183 through 1193, and 1215.

Nancy Pelosi Channels Stepan Bandera
In the ongoing series about the Ukraine War, Mr. Emory has put forth a metaphor: the war itself and the attendant coverage as a “philosopher’s stone” alchemically changing American and Western institutions and individuals into the same political and intellectual fabric of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi exemplifies that grim political alchemy. Prior to a video appearance by Ukrainian President Volodomyr Zelensky, she greeted Zelensky with the OUN/B salute–which is now the official salute of both the Ukrainian military and police establishments.

FTR#1235 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lie?, Part 8
This program continues analysis of the Ukraine war. The title of this series comes from Mort Sahl, who voiced the question in his autobiography.
Charges and counter-charges in the ongoing Ukraine war surround Pentagon-financed “veterinary” and other biological laboratories in Ukraine.
We note that there are significant connections between the agency overseeing the Ukrainian projects and institutions implicated in the apparent “bio-skullduggery” surrounding the U.S. biological warfare gambit involving what Mr. Emory has termed “The Oswald Institute of Virology.” This is discussed in: FTR#‘s 1170, 1183 through 1193, and 1215.
The essence of the “Oswald Institute of Virology” gambit concerns the DTRA and Pentagon funding of bat-borne coronavirus research at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, much of it through Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance. Once the research was complete, it resulted in publication which included the genome of the bat viruses being researched. Using technology discussed below, the viruses were then synthesized from scratch and population groups were vectored with the same viral strains being researched by the WIV.
Just as Lee Harvey Oswald was set up to look like a communist before being framed for JFK’s murder, so, too the “Oswald Institute of Virology” was set up to take the blame for the coronavirus pandemic.
Essential background information to evaluate the debate:
1.–The alleged difference between “offensive” and “defensive” biological warfare research is academic: If one if researching how “wee beasties” infect, sicken and/or kill plants, animals or humans, it is the same research, whatever terminology one uses.
2.–Contemporary technology makes it possible to synthesize deadly pathogens from scratch: ” . . . . Advances in the area mean that scientists now have the capability to recreate dangerous viruses from scratch; make harmful bacteria more deadly; and modify common microbes so that they churn out lethal toxins once they enter the body. Today, the genetic code of almost any mammalian virus can be found online and synthesised. ‘The technology to do this is available now,’ said [Michael] Imperiale. ‘It requires some expertise, but it’s something that’s relatively easy to do, and that is why it tops the list.’ . . .”
3.–The essential parameters of the fact finding: ” . . . . So do bio labs exist inside Ukraine, and is the US supporting them? Yes, and yes. Ukraine does operate biological laboratories which receive US funding. . . .”
4.–” . . . . Do the Ukraine laboratories store dangerous biological agents? Yes, it appears so. [!] As part of their work researching diseases the bio labs do seem to hold dangerous pathogens. . . .”
The debate centers on U.S. Pentagon-financed laboratories in Ukraine. Note that the laboratories are described as “veterinary laboratories”–the Pentagon is in the business of war-fighting, which essentially consists of killing people and destroying property. They are not in the business of taking care of puppy dogs and kitty cats. Veterinarians are viewed as optimum for biological warfare work, because they do not have to take the Hippocratic Oath.
Key considerations in the controversy:
1.–” . . . . [Robert Pope, the director of the Pentagon’s Cooperative Threat Reduction Program] noted that some of the facilities may contain pathogens once used for Soviet-era bioweapons programs, but he emphasized that the Ukrainian labs currently did not have the ability to manufacture bioweapons. . . . In a March interview with the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists . . . . He spoke specifically about the Pentagon’s support of 14 veterinary laboratories that provide Ukraine with sampling and diagnostic abilities to detect infectious diseases. . . .”
2.–The Pentagon’s Cooperative Threat Reduction Program is part of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. the former was involved in researching bats and deadly pathogens: ” . . . . the U.S. military — specifically the Department of Defense’s Cooperative Threat Reduction Program — began funding research involving bats and deadly pathogens, including the coronaviruses MERS and SARS, a year prior in 2017. . . .”
3.–Peter Daszak–of Ukrainian heritage–heads the EcoHealth Alliance, the largest military contractor receiving funds from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency: ” . . . . Meticulous investigation of U.S. government databases reveals that Pentagon funding for the EcoHealth Alliance from 2013 to 2020, including contracts, grants and subcontracts, was just under $39 million. Most, $34.6 million, was from the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), which is a branch of the DOD which states it is tasked to ‘counter and deter weapons of mass destruction and improvised threat networks.’. . .”
4.–Further review of Shi’s research funding [at the Wuhan Institute of Virology] from the Pentagon, via EcoHealth Alliance: ” . . . . Shi Zhengli and her collaborators are also funded by the U.S. military. Peter Daszak’s EcoHealth Alliance currently receives more money from the Department of Defense’s Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA) for Scientific Research Combatting Weapons of Mass Destruction than any other military contractor—$15 million (25.575 percent) of the $60.2 million dispersed in the last 6 months. . . .”
5.–The DTRA funding of bat-borne coronovirus research at WIV gains further gravitas: “. . . . A Google Scholar search produced two papers Shi has published that lists DTRA as a funder. To see how the first paper, ‘Comparative Analysis of Bat Genomes Provides Insight into the Evolution of Flight and Immunity,’ is relevant to biological weaponry, it helps to understand the military’s interest in bat immunity. . . .”
Documents removed by the U.S. Embassy in Ukraine–but archived by the Wayback Machine–confirm that the DTRA is among the sources of funding for DOD-funded labs in Ukraine. Note, too, the fact that many of these labs are “veterinary” labs. Veterinarians are highly-regarded for biological warfare recruitment, because they do not have to sign the Hippocratic Oath.
One must ask the question, also, as to why the Embassy suddenly removed these documents?
The West–in this case a highly-placed Colonel in the UK’s CBW establishment–are echoing the verbiage about Russian “false-flag” possibilities.
In light of the West’s false flag operations in the last ten years, that should alert us to the possibility of Russia being set up for a Ukraine/U.S. biological warfare false-flag.
The overall theme of the programs to be presented in this long series is captured in an observation made by Glenn Pinchback.
In 1961, the Joint Chiefs were pushing for a first strike on the Soviet Union–a decision to initiate nuclear war. JFK refused, walking out of the discussion with the disgusted observation that “We call ourselves the human race.”
In FTR #‘s 876, 926 and 1051, we examined the creation of the meme that Oswald had been networking with the Cubans and Soviets in the run-up to the assassination. In particular, Oswald was supposedly meeting with Valery Kostikov, a KGB official in charge of assassinations in the Western Hemisphere.
This created the pretext for blaming JFK’s assassination on the Soviet Union and/or Cuba. There are indications that JFK’s assassination may well have been intended as a pretext for a nuclear first strike on the Soviet Union.
FTR#1234 How Many Lies Before You Belong to The Lie?, Part 7
This program continues our coverage of the Ukraine War, embodied by the quote from Mort Sahl that is the title of this series.
We begin with an article which embodies Mr. Emory’s analysis of the war and its attendant coverage as a “philosopher’s stone,” effecting an alchemical transformation of the U.S., the West in general and most of the people and institutions in them into what might be called “the embodiment of the Ukrainian Institute of National Memory.”
Golinkin penned an op-ed piece for The New York Times in which he mentioned none of what he spoke about three years ago. Instead, he repeated anti-Soviet and/or anti-Russian material which is practically institutionalized at this point.
At the end of his Nation piece, Golinkin gave voice to a very important insight: ” . . . . By tolerating neo-Nazi gangs and battalions, state-led Holocaust distortion, and attacks on LGBT and the Roma, the United States is telling the rest of Europe: ‘We’re fine with this.’ The implications—especially at a time of a global far-right revival—are profoundly disturbing. . . .”
Note also, that the Ukraine Institute of National Memory has designated the members of the SS Galician Division (pictured at right, below, as victims: ” . . . . The recuperation even extends to SS Galichina, a Ukrainian division of the Waffen-SS; the director of the Institute of National Memory proclaimed that the SS fighters were ‘war victims.’. . . .”
Oleh Tihanybok, leader of the OUN/B successor organization Svoboda.
Points of analysis and discussion in Golinkin’s older work include:
* The elevation of the neo-Nazi Azov Battalion that was formally incorporated into Ukraine’s armed forces yet remains a neo-Nazi battalion.
* Azov is now engaged in policing with its National Druzhina street patrol units that have engaged in anti-Roma pogroms.
* Azov’s campaign to turn Ukraine into an international hub of white supremacy.
* Andriy Parubiy’s role in creating Ukraine’s Nazi Party that he continues to embrace and that’s routinely ignored as he has become the parliament speaker.
* The deputy minister of the Interior—which controls the National Police—is a veteran of Azov, Vadim Troyan.
* Government sponsorship of historical revisionism and holocaust denial though agencies like Ukrainian Institute of National Memory. It is now illegal to speak unfavorably of the OUN/B or the UPA, both of which were Nazi collaborationist organizations with bloody, lethal histories.
* Torchlight parades are now normal.
* Within several years, an entire generation will be indoctrinated to worship Holocaust perpetrators as national heroes.
* Books that criticize the now-glorified WWII Nazi collaborators like Stepan Bandera are getting banned.
* Public officials make threats against Ukraine’s Jewish community with no repercussions.
* The neo-Nazi C14’s street patrol gangs are both responsible for anti-Roma pogroms and also the recipient of government funds to run a children’s educational camp. Last October, C14 leader Serhiy Bondar was welcomed at America House Kyiv, a center run by the US government.
* It’s open season on the LGBT community and far right groups routinely attack LGBT gatherings.
* Ukraine is extremely dangerous for journalists and the government has supported the doxxing and intimidation of journalist by the far right like Myrovorets group.
* The government is trying to repeal laws protecting the many minority languages used in Ukraine.
And yet, as the article notes at the end, its many examples were just a small sampling of what has transpired in Ukraine since 2014:
