May 9-11, 2014 -- EU and NATO hypocrisy on Ukraine

In one of the most blatant displays of hypocrisy in modern international 
affairs, the same state, supranational, and non-governmental organization 
actors who stood at the forefront of splitting apart Yugoslavia into seven 
smaller independent states are also standing at the helm in calling for the 
preservation of the unity of Ukraine. These players include the European Union, 
NATO, and the World Bank/International Monetary Fund, in addition to the United 
States, Britain, Germany, and organizations like the Organization for Security 
and Cooperation in Europe (OSCE).

In fact, the OSCE expelled Yugoslavia from membership in 1992 because it did 
not want to listen to the Yugoslavian representative present his nation's views 
on the planned dismemberment of his country to the other OSCE delegations. The 
contradictions of how the OSCE treated Yugoslavia in the early 1990s and how it 
is dealing with Russia, Crimea, and the independence-seeking Russian-speaking 
regions of eastern and southern Ukraine serve as textbook examples of Western 
hypocritical policies. In the 1990s, the OSCE, which was already infiltrated by 
George Soros operatives, championed the independence of the constituent nations 
of Yugoslavia, starting with Slovenia and Croatia, and then moving into the 
country that would spark a bloodbath: Bosnia and Herzegovina. After the OSCE, 
the EU, and NATO performed their nation-busting, Yugoslavia was broken into 
seven nations: Slovenia, Croatia, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Macedonia, Kosovo, 
Montenegro, and Serbia.

The European "Triune" of the EU, NATO, and the OSCE, however, has vigorously 
opposed the retrocession of Crimea to Russia and declarations of sovereignty by 
Donetsk, Lugansk, and Odessa in Ukraine even though these regions have more of 
a claim to self-determination than did the NATO and EU creation of Kosovo, an 
Albanian-run statelet in the middle of the Balkans led by organized crime 
figures and terrorists.

The EU and the United States maintain that any change in Ukrainian borders must 
be approved by a national referendum held in all of Ukraine. Yet, no national 
referendum on the preservation of Yugoslavia was ever held. NATO and the EU 
supported the various breakaway republics of "South Slavia," without any regard 
to the wishes of the Yugoslav people as a whole. 

When Serbs, who found themselves trapped in the newly-independent countries of 
Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina, declared their wish for self-determination, 
they were branded "secessionists" and then "war criminals." In this regard, 
NATO and the EU treated the Serbs living outside of Serbia proper in the same 
manner as the moribund and corrupt Western organizations are treating the 
Russians trapped inside a Ukraine governed by a coalition of neo-Nazis and 
austerity-driven technocrats.

NATO and the EU were more than happy to have ethnic Serbs have their future 
determined by the ideological descendants of the pro-Nazi Ustashe in Croatia 
and the pro-Hitler Bosniak Muslims running Bosnia from Sarajevo. The situation 
for the Serbs in Croatia and Bosnia was no different than that which has 
befallen ethnic Russians and Russian-speaking Ukrainians in eastern and 
southern Ukraine. In both the cases of Yugoslavia and Ukraine, the EU, NATO, 
Soros's organizations, and the neoconservative think tanks in Washington allied 
with ethnic nationalists tainted with a neo-Nazi hue.

Xenophobic anti-Russian attitudes, which now pervade the governments in Berlin, 
Washington, London, and eastern Europe, were also prevalent in these same 
capitals in the early 1990s. Johann Reismuller, the editor of the influential 
Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, championed the cause of independent Croatia and 
Slovenia by deploring the "Yugo-Serbs" as "Russian Bolsheviks" who had no place 
in the European Union. Today, individuals like Zbigniew Brzezinski, Madeleine 
Albright, John Kerry, have brought their respective Polish Catholic and Jewish 
Czech "baggage" to bear on steering U.S. policy on a decidedly anti-Russian 
course. Brzezinski, Albright, and Kerry have adopted Russophobia as a hallmark 
of American foreign policy in the same manner as they embraced "Serbophobia" as 
U.S. foreign policy in the 1990s. The only difference is that where they 
championed the dissolution of Yugoslavia they now seek to maintain the unity of 
Ukraine. In both cases, they sought to tweak the nose of the Russian bear. 


The Slavophobe, Serbophobe, and Russophobe Hungarian Jew George Soros (left) 
has been at the heart of the troubles of Yugoslavia and Ukraine. Hungarians are 
not a Slavic people.

The progressive left has been co-opted by the Soros gang to demonize Russia 
just as they were co-opted to paint Serbia as some sort of evil aggressor. 
Condemning Serbs in the Bundestag, German Green leader Joschka Fischer equated 
Serbs with the German Nazis. It has been reported from a number of sources that 
Fischer, a radical leftist friend of German radical and "Paris 68" provocateur 
Daniel Cohn-Bendit, both had Cold War links to the CIA. Green Party leader 
Petra Kelly considered Fischer to be an "upstart" and a "careerist." The 
question remains: What organization provided Fischer with his lifetime career? 
Perhaps the same one that provided Barack Hussein Obama, Jr., the poseur 
"progressive," with his own storied career.

The fact that the CIA and Soros were covering all bases in Europe in seeking 
the dismemberment of Yugoslavia is evidenced by the fact that independence for 
Croatia and Slovenia was supported by Fischer on one side and the octogenarian 
Otto von Habsburg, the heir to the crown of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. 
However, when the CIA is involved in anything, strange bedfellows are always 
commonplace.

The use of Pussy Riot "feminists" like Nadya Tolokonnikova and Maria Alyokhina, 
recently feted by the U.S. Senate, is nothing new. During the campaign to break 
up Yugoslavia, public relations spinners like the Ruder Finn public relations 
firm, contracted by Croatia, successfully marketed the meme to the 
international press that Serbs were running "rape camps." The intent was to 
stir feminist outrage toward Serbia. The story of rape camps was patently false 
but, was nevertheless, run as a legitimate news story by The New York Times and 
Newsday. CNN's Christiane Amanpour echoed other propagandists in the news media 
in reporting non-existent Serbian "atrocities" against "defenseless" Muslim 
Bosnians. In fact, CNN never reported that the Bosnian Muslims were well-armed. 
The CIA enabled a number of Arab and other Muslim paramilitary units to enter 
Bosnia to support the Muslim government in Sarajevo. These paramilitary units 
included one led by one Osama Bin Laden who moved in and out of Bosnia on a 
Bosnian diplomatic passport issued, with the approval of the CIA, by the 
Bosnian embassy in Vienna. Another Muslim paramilitary leader in Bosnia was one 
Colonel Mohammed Atta of the Egyptian Air Force.

Today, there are reports that takfiri fighters, some linked to Al Qaeda, are 
being sent into Ukraine from Syria to help the Kiev government fight the 
Russian secessionists in the east. There are also reports of Chechen terrorist 
groups arriving in Ukraine to fight the Russians.

Likewise, Jewish-American groups were targeted in a campaign that painted the 
Serbs as Nazis. Leading Jewish neocons like Richard Perle and Douglas Feith set 
up the "Bosnia Defense Fund" to funnel millions of donated dollars from Qatar, 
Brunei, Dubai, and Saudi Arabia to the Bosnian government based on the 
so-called "Muslim cleansing" threat posed by Serbia.

The final nail in the coffin of Yugoslavia was brought about by the 
International Criminal Court, an institution which the United States rejects 
having jurisdiction over its own affairs, but is systematically used by 
Washington to carry out its political agendas. The indictments for war crimes 
destroyed any chance that any Yugoslav leader, including Slobodan Milosevic, 
who suspiciously died while in custody of the ICC in The Hague in 2006, could 
ever maintain political power. Now, the ICC has stated that it is looking at 
possible criminal indictments of pro-Russian Ukrainian and Crimean leaders, as 
well as the leadership of the Kremlin itself. Like the OSCE, the ICC is 
jam-packed with Soros operatives.
