Provocation in Bucha: Inconsistencies of Ukrainian version

10 апреля 2022
The terrible footage from the small Ukrainian town of Bucha shocked the world, though not only for its tragedy, but also for its cynicism. NATO countries do not need a real investigation of what happened. Ukraine and the West accused the Russian military of shooting civilians. See the video about new provocations against Russia and information warfare.

Myth-making holds a special place in the modern information warfare. Katyn, Charlie Hebdo, Srebrenica, Bucha... The very name of the town of Bucha was chosen not accidentally as it resembles "butcher" in English. "Horror," "massacre," "terror" - these words should stick to and be associated with dehumanized Russians. 
This Friday, there was a large European theater on a road in Bucha: Ursula von der Leyen, Josep Borrell, Eduard Heger. A tent with a canopy was set up for them (it was raining outside and the reputable officials should not get wet), and black plastic bags were placed next to them. An important detail: a week has passed since the Ukrainian troops entered Bucha, more than a week ago these people, as the Ukrainian side claims, were killed, and the American New York Times calls the date - March 18. Quite a cynical performance.

But the EU has no unified faith in Ukraine's version, where Russia is given a collective verdict in absentia and without evidence.

Vladimir Zelensky, President of Ukraine:

"There was one very unpleasant incident. One EU politician said: "And show us the proof that this really happened, that it wasn't staged."

Now let's make a little visual timeline. 
On March 30, Russian troops leave Bucha, and on March 31 the joyful and satisfied mayor made an official announcement, without a word about the victims of massacre piled up all over the city.

On April 1, the Ukrainian Armed Forces enter the city. There are still no bodies. On the same day, deputy Jean Belenyuk, also satisfied, had his picture taken there without a word about the corpses. Yet, he informed about them, but only two days later.

On April 2, a special unit of the National Guard with the promising name "Safari" arrived in Bucha, announced that a sweep and clear of subversive groups and "Russian collaborators" will be carried out in the city, and made a brief operation footage around the city.

A military unit of Botsman (the Russian Nazi Sergey Korotkikh) entered the city. And in the best traditions of the present time, they make a short video still keeping silence about the mountain of corpses.

It’s Saturday, April 2, nearly the evening of Saturday, I emphasize. And Sunday is the time for the week's news summaries in every country of the world, like the ones you're watching now on our channel. The agenda includes oil, gas, dollar and the impending crisis. It's prime time and maximum viewership. And all these viewers in Europe and America saw Zelensky marching through the streets of Bucha with foreign mercenaries and a media entourage in a mournful march. Is it a Sunday coincidence?

Scott Ritter, U.S. military analyst and former UN weapons inspector in Iraq:

"The Ukrainian side has, as you know, the 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations. This is a propaganda unit of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, which works together with the special services and is supervised by the CIA. Their only goal is to spread propaganda to hurt Russia. Ukrainians produce information to be delivered to Western media so that it can be repeated immediately on mainstream broadcast networks."

Bucha is by no means the first story in which the guilty have been appointed in absentia. The whole world knows Srebrenica today as the site of the murder of Bosnian Muslims by Serbs. That's what they say all over the Western world. And that is how the main informational myth of our time was produced. The main one, for now,  is Srebrenica and the so-called genocide of 1995.  
Srebrenica was inhabited by an armed group under the command of Naser Oric. Until 1995, the guerrillas spared neither women, nor children, nor the elderly; people were beheaded, burned, impaled on a stake, raped. More than 3,000 Serbs died at the hands of Oric's gangs. Oric, by the way, got away with it. Meanwhile, small unit of Mladic entered Srebrenica. Women, children and the elderly were evacuated in buses, and the men were to be tested for their involvement in the extermination of 3,000 Serbs. The Republika Srpska troops organized a pursuit of the retreating troops and eliminated most of the column during the fighting. And then there was a cry that the Serbian army had committed genocide against innocent civilian men. The numbers are growing before our eyes - now they are talking about 8,000. 

To make up the numbers, they brought  those who were killed  earlier to show the West a horrifying picture. And all this was the basis for NATO's military intervention in Yugoslavia, the brutality of which we saw a little later. But at first, they needed victims and quite heavy toll. The idea that a tragedy was needed was  even voiced publicly. And there are witnesses to this. In 1993, Bosnian President Alija Izetbegovic negotiated this with Bill Clinton. 

Hakija Meholić, Srebrenica police chief in 1993: 

"Alija Izetbegovic told us about Clinton's proposal. If the Chetniks enter Srebrenica and kill 5,000 Muslims, there will be a NATO intervention."

By the way, there are no 8,000 dead at the burial site. But there are names of Serbs killed by Bosnian Muslims, and the names of people who are still alive. So it's a forgery, going far into the future. And after the myth of the Srebrenica genocide was subjected to a legal ritual, the real genocide, which was the genocide of the Serbs, was erased from history.

But let's be honest and frank: in any armed conflict there are victims,  and no matter how blasphemous it may sound,  this is true. But genocide and war crimes are completely different definitions. 

On War Crimes. 2007. This is Al-Amin al-Thaniyah,  a neighborhood on the east side of Baghdad. An American Apache gunship circles over a group of civilians. An agitated American asks over the radio if they are going to give way on fire. And people were shot with a 30-millimeter cannon. 10 people are lying on the ground. A van drove up with little children in the car. The Americans opened fire again  with yelling. 18 people were killed including Reuters journalist Noor-Eldeen, and his assistant, Saeed Chmagh. 

Do you think anyone was punished? Julian Assange got 175 years in prison for solving this and other American crimes, if he is extradited to the United States, of course.

But  let’s get back to Bucha. Shootings in the streets, mass graves, tortures...

As Botsman (the Nazi whose battalion entered Bucha immediately after the Russian troops left) said, the main thing is information falsification, and it doesn't matter what you did, it matters what you showed.

Sergey Korotkikh (Botsman):

It is easy to damage them, take a video and put it on the Web, because, as the experience of Azerbaijan and Armenia showed, they defeated Armenia informationally, in the first place. That is, they filmed 10 videos from different angles per one killed Armenian. The wars of the 21st century are now primarily information wars. That is, it doesn't matter what you did, but it matters what you showed.

On April 8, the day the European delegation arrived in Bucha, more than 50 people were killed at the Kramatorsk train station. Scary footage. And the "commander of the fake troops" Arestovich hurried to report that the Russians shot the evacuating people at the train station with Iskanders. There' s a cynical "here's for the children" inscription on the shell. But do you see the tail? This is not Iskander, this is Tochka-U. Russia has not had it in service for a long time. Then they tried to get away with it as best as they could.
They published an old video of the alleged transfer of "Tochka-U" from Gomel on platforms. The only misfire was that the things on the platforms are not Tochka-U missiles, but Kredo-1S radar stations. "Kredo" does not shoot, this is a "scout car". Neither Bucha, nor Kramatorsk will be the last falsifications and provocations.

We need better executioners and better blackmailers to make things work for us. And the better ones are the ones that combine executioners and blackmailers...

Ukraine is producing a new Bucha show, and this is another episode of Quarter-95, so as not to lose the support of the West immersed in its own problems. NATO is not going to have a direct confrontation with Russia, but, as you know, at least something would be good (tanks and helmets). And the victims are a kind of concomitant element.
