In the latest US accusation against Russia, Washington has claimed in a letter to the UN that Russia is compiling a list of Ukrainians it would kill or send to camps following a military occupation of Ukraine.
“We have credible information that indicates Russian forces are creating lists of identified Ukrainians to be killed or sent to camps following a military occupation,” the US said in the letter, which was published by The Washington Post on Sunday.
The US claimed Russia would likely target “those who oppose Russian actions, including Russian and Belarusian dissidents in exile in Ukraine, journalists and anti-corruption activists, and vulnerable populations such as religious and ethnic minorities and LGBTQI+ persons.”
Like most recent US claims, no evidence was offered to back up the accusations made in the letter. National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan made a similar claim on Sunday, warning that Russia was preparing an “extremely violent” invasion of Ukraine meant to “crush” the Ukrainian people.
“We also have intelligence to suggest that there will be an even greater form of brutality because this will not simply be some conventional war between two armies,” Sullivan said. “It will be a war waged by Russia on the Ukrainian people to repress them, to crush them, to harm them.”
Russian President Vladimir Putin recognized the breakaway republics in the Donbas on Monday and ordered troops into the territory for a “peacekeeping” mission. But since the separatists requested the Russian help, there’s no reason to believe the troops will target civilians. Despite the US claims, there’s still no indication that Russia will order a full-scale invasion to topple Kyiv.
Here we go again, Camps, rapes, mass something or the other. Something chemical.
There must be an office for geersting such ideas. Seriously? Most Ukrainians are actually more madwith America, accusing America not Europe for the catastrophy of the economy. No wonder US Embassysnd staff are relocated to the safety of the Banderista region. The only believeds left.
The Russians probably do have such lists. Certainly they know who the neo-Nazis are and would be more than willing to have them arrested and subjected to war crimes trials. Martyanov thinks this is coming at some point. I assume this will not occur unless and until the rest of Ukraine has to be broken up, depending on future events.
This is American as apple pie. Remember the deck of 52 playing cards each with an Iraqi targeted for capture and god knows what else?
The US claimed Russia would likely target “those who oppose Russian actions, including Russian and Belarusian dissidents in exile in Ukraine, journalists and anti-corruption activists, and vulnerable populations such as religious and ethnic minorities and LGBTQI+ persons.”
What a load of bullshit. Dissidents, activists, journalists, religious and ethnic minorities and even LBGTQI + persons. Seriously? Did they forget anyone? Where was Matt Lee when we needed him? Please, someone ask for the source.
Have the Russians come up with the “deck of cards” yet. Who would the Ace of Spades be.?
Victoria Nuland
On my deck, that would be Hillary. Nuland was her Joker.
Nuland is married to Robert Kagan who has the Institute for the Study (Promotion) of War, which General Jack Keane works for and shills for on FOX. I think the Kagans are the brains behind American foreign policy. That’s why I want her out.
Kindda like the list the president keeps of people who are to be murdered by drones
“Dissidents”, “Those who oppose Russian actions”- Well, you see, when you’re invading a country those people have another name… they’re called THE ENEMY and it’s not a stretch of the imagination to think that those people would be rounded up and/or killed, depending on their actions. As for the ‘threat’ to any LGBTXYZ Ukrainians, I should think that’s more for domestic consumption in the US rather than for anyone else. Considering there are LGBT XYZ Russians who aren’t being shot on sight, I’m pretty sure they’re not going to go after those of that persuasion in the Ukraine either. Of course, if they want to take up arms, they’re fair game just like anyone else.
But this is all dependent on an invasion/occupation by Russian forces, and I don’t see it happening.
Since Putin is accused of making a hit list he might as well go ahead and make out his list. First on my list would be a bounty put on Victoria Nuland’s head.
Camps like Guantanamo?
Assassinations by drone? Or by snipers? We do both, they have worked well for us for decades now.
Renditions? Kidnapping inside other states? We did that too, and set up torture centers in some of them (like Poland).
So, shocked and surprised?
