SNIPPETS:
With Israel’s punitive operation against Gaza now in its fourth
month, it’s impossible not to compare Western outrage regarding
other conflicts with the selective morality now being applied
when dealing with Israel.
Even the briefest assessment of how the West’s innumerable wars
have been portrayed in a client media quickly yields irrefutable
evidence that the marketing of conflicts, as justified by
Western powers, is central to their continued legitimization.
... ...
Language and terminology are, of course, a central and
fundamental element when you need to portray a war as morally
acceptable. This is glaringly obvious when we examine how
Western media are portraying the current escalation in Gaza.
American and British media subtly portray victims on one side as
more expendable as opposed to the other, for example, by
referring to Israeli casualties as having been “killed” while
Palestinian ones are described as having simply “died”, while
minors held captive by Israel, who have been detained without
trial in some cases for several years, are referred to as
“prisoners” while Israelis held by Hamas are referred to as
“hostages.”
This willful deployment of language to sterilize and dehumanize
a victim, or indeed an entire ethnicity, is by no means
accidental. It is an essential element of a psychological
endeavor to tip the scales in the viewers’ (physically far
removed from the conflict) subconscious calculation of
culpability. It’s simple to consider the elimination of
“terrorists” as justifiable, whereas the mass killing of many
thousands of defenseless children, women, and sick and elderly
people is a far harder task to sell to an increasingly informed
Western public. ... ...
Let’s look at the convenient demonization of Islam. It is by no
means an accident that the majority of victims of America’s
catastrophic post-9/11 “war on terror” were Muslim. Decades of
demonization of Islam as a savage religion bent on world
domination have had a subconscious effect on the “collective
mind” of the West. This is then energetically exploited by the
Western media as required. ... ...
The intimate relationship between the client media and the
military industrial complex also requires deep investigation and
analysis. Media empires such as Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp exert
vast and overwhelming influence on the public discourse when it
comes to the justification of war. The relationship between the
critically important military industrial complex and the
creation of a defensible war narrative is undeniable yet
persistently denied. ... ...
It now seems shockingly obvious that the Western media is
determined to suppress any informed debate around the rationale
for conflict when that conflict emanates from the US or one of
its clients or allies. ... ...
It is, after all, 🙊🙉🙈 Western taxpayers

/>actions[/glow]' some of its own journalists and staffers
say[/center]
CNN 🕯️ staffers and 🗽 journalists are
speaking out against the network's editorial policies they say
have led to uncritically repeating Israeli propaganda and the
censoring of Palestinian voices and perspectives in its coverage
of the war in Gaza, the Guardian reported on 5 February.
"The majority of news since the war began, regardless of how
accurate the initial reporting, has been skewed by a systemic
and institutional bias within the network toward Israel," said
one CNN staffer. "Ultimately, CNN's coverage of the Israel-Gaza
war amounts to journalistic malpractice."
According to 🕯️ accounts from six CNN 🗽
staffers in multiple newsrooms and more than a dozen internal
memos and emails obtained by the Guardian, the "editorial
policies include tight restrictions on quoting Hamas and
reporting other Palestinian perspectives while Israel government
statements are taken at face value."
Further, every CNN report on the war must be cleared by the
network's Jerusalem [glow=red,2,300]bureau[/glow] before
broadcast or publication.
In January, The Intercept reported that CNN's
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-281223163648.png<br
/>Jerusalem bureau, in turn, submits stories to 😈
Israel's
military censor for approval.
Crucially, CNN has provided no coverage of Israel implementing
the [glow=red,2,300]Hannibal Directive[/glow], which instructed
Israeli forces to kill Israeli civilians to prevent them from
being taken captive to Gaza by Hamas on 7 October. As a result
of the controversial policy, Israeli forces used attack
helicopters, armed drones, and tanks to kill Israeli civilians
in their homes in settlements (kibbutzim) and in the open fields
near the Gaza border and even within Gaza during the Hamas
attack.
CNN journalists say the tone of coverage is set at the top by
CEO and Editor-in-Chief [glow=red,2,300]😈 Mark
Thompson[/glow], who was placed in his position just two days
after 7 October.
Thompson's policies have resulted, particularly early in the
war, "in a greater focus on Israeli suffering and the Israeli
narrative of the war as a hunt for Hamas and its tunnels, and an
insufficient focus on the scale of Palestinian civilian deaths
and destruction in Gaza," the Guardian wrote.
"Many have been pushing for more content from Gaza to be alerted
and aired. By the time these reports go through Jerusalem and
make it to TV or the homepage, critical changes – from the
introduction of imprecise language to an ignorance of crucial
stories – ensure that nearly every report, no matter how
damning, relieves Israel of wrongdoing."
While roughly 1,200 Israeli civilians and soldiers were killed
on 7 October, including large numbers by Israeli forces
themselves, Israel's military campaign on Gaza has now killed
over 27,000 Palestinians, the majority women and children.
In late October, after more than 2,700 Palestinian children had
been killed and as Israel prepared for its ground invasion,
[glow=red,2,300]Thompson[/glow] sent a set of guidelines to CNN
staff by email.
The email states that while CNN would report the human
consequences of the Israeli assault on Palestinians, "we must
continue always to remind our audiences of the immediate cause
of this current conflict, namely the Hamas attack and mass
murder and kidnap of civilians."
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040622202533-1394275.gif
CNN 🕯️ staff members said the memo ensured the
network's coverage would 😈 implicitly justify Israeli
actions and that other context or history about the roots of the
conflict long before 7 October was often unwelcome or
marginalized.
"How else are editors going to read that other than as an
instruction that no matter what the Israelis do, Hamas is
ultimately to blame? Every action by Israel – dropping massive
bombs that wipe out entire streets, its obliteration of whole
families – the coverage ends up massaged to create a 🐍
'they had it coming' narrative,'" said one 🕯️
staffer.
The same memo said that any reference to casualty figures from
the Gaza health ministry must say it is "Hamas-controlled,"
implying that reports of the deaths of thousands of children
were unreliable even though both US and Israeli intelligence
quietly acknowledged they are roughly correct, or even
undercounted, with so many buried under the rubble of apartment
blocs leveled by Israeli bombing.
🐍 David Lindsay, the senior director of news standards
and practices, issued a directive in early November preventing
the reporting of most Hamas statements, calling them
"inflammatory rhetoric and propaganda."
"Most of it has been said many times before and is not
newsworthy. We should be careful not to give it a platform," he
wrote.
Another instruction on 23 October stated that reports must not
show Hamas video of the release of two elderly Israeli captives,
Nurit Cooper and Yocheved Lifshitz. As they were placed in a Red
Cross vehicle to be freed, Lifshitz shook hands with a Hamas
fighter escorting her, portraying Hamas in a potentially
positive light. She also stated that Hamas had treated her well
while in captivity during a press conference at a hospital upon
release. The Israeli government later placed 👿
restrictions on freed captives speaking with the media.
"Some CNN staff fear that as a result of these policies, the
network is acting as a 😈 surrogate censor on behalf of
the [glow=red,2,300]Israeli government[/glow]," the Guardian
reported further.
"The system results in chosen individuals editing any and all
reporting with an institutionalized
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040622153114-13822364.jpeg<br
/>pro-Israel bias, often using passive language to absolve the
[Israel Defense Forces] of responsibility and playing down
Palestinian deaths and Israeli attacks," said one of the
network's journalists.
One staffer pointed to the appearance of [glow=red,2,300]Rami
Igra[/glow], a former [glow=red,2,300]senior Israeli
intelligence official[/glow], on CNN's flagship news program
hosted by Anderson Cooper.
Igra claimed that the entire Palestinian population of Gaza
could be regarded as combatants, while Cooper failed to push
back on the clearly false claim.
"The non-combatant population in the Gaza Strip is really a
nonexistent term because all of the Gazans voted for the Hamas,
and as we have seen on the 7th of October, most of the
population in the Gaza Strip are Hamas," he said.
By the time of the 19 November interview, more than 13,000
people had been killed by [glow=red,2,300]Israel[/glow] in Gaza,
most of them ☠️ civilians].
CNN staffers and journalists also criticized CNN presenter
[glow=red,2,300]🐍 Sara Sidner[/glow], who excitedly
reported unverified Israeli
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-100323192456-23211820.gif<br
/>claims that
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-100323184256-23092252.gif<br
/>Hamas beheaded dozens of babies on 7 October.
By the time of[glow=red,2,300] Sidner's report[/glow], doubt had
already been cast on the claim, which later was shown to be a
fabrication.
CNN
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-080422121331.gif<br
/>insiders said, "Senior editors should have treated the story
with caution from the beginning because the Israeli military has
a track record of false or exaggerated claims that subsequently
fall apart," the Guardian added.

/>Somebody needs to sue LIAR Jeffrey Gettleman, the New York
Times, Hillary Clinton AND ALL the mainstream media AND the
Israeli Government for the serial repeated abominable slander
against the successful military operation by Hamas on October 7,
2023. On that day NO men, women or children were sexually abused
by Hamas, PERIOD.
Furthermore, MOST of the Israelies killed that day were killed
by IDF helicopter and tank fire! 70 cars that were INCINERATED
is IRREFUTABLE EVIDENCE of this MASS Hannibal ATROCITY of Israel
against its own citizens!
[center]
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-250124004058.png[/center]
All the bold faced mendacitiy filled stories about "sexual
violence against and/or mass incineration of Israeli captives by
Hamas" must be RETRACTED by the Biden Administration, the UK,
the BBC AND anyone else, including the New York Times and
Washington Post et al, that have contributed to spreading these
Israeli DESPICABLE LIES.
The TRUTH that on October 7, 2023 MOST of the Israeli deaths
were CAUSED by IDF helicopter and tank fire, AND NO Israelies
were victims of sexual violence, needs to be REPEATED EVERY DAY
UNTIL Israeli LIES about Hamas that day are totally exposed AND
the DELIBERATE MURDER of MOST of the Israeli captives, along
with their Hamas captors driving the 70 cars that were
INCINERATED BY IDF Helicopters and tanks that day, can no longer
be denied by Israel, the USA AND Europe!

I congratulate the Palestine Chronicle's staff. What they have
achieved is significant.
My experience has been similar, but I can't get past the shadow
banning in you-tube comments. The shadow banning by Google et al
is getting quite sophisticated. When I post certain words in a
comment, I KNOW I get shadow banned because there are never any
replies or down or up votes. Yet when I post on some YouTube
video unrelated to the Israeli Genocide of Palestinians in Gaza
OR Russia, I do get replies and up (or down) votes.
😕 We are ruled by clever bastards.

Resisting Biden's Navalny Celebrating Legerdemain

[center]The Tragic Death of a Traitor[/center]
[center]Part One: Origins[/center]
SNIPPETS (of DETAILED, HARD TRUTH FILLED, LENGTHY ARTICLE):
Biden cast the blame for Navalny’s death squarely at the feet of
Russian President Vladimir Putin. “Make no mistake. Putin is
responsible for Navalny’s death. Putin is responsible. What has
happened to Navalny is yet more proof of Putin’s brutality. No
one should be fooled, not in Russia, not at home, not anywhere
in the world.” Navalny, Biden said, “was so many things that
Putin was not. He was brave. He was principled. He was dedicated
to building a Russia where the rule of law existed and of where
it applied to everybody. Navalny believed in that Russia, that
Russia. He knew it was a cause worth fighting for, and obviously
even dying for.”
Navalny’s wife, Yulia Navalnaya, addressed his death before the
Munich Security Conference, with Vice President Kamala Harris
and Secretary of State Antony Blinken in attendance. “I want
Putin and his entire surrounding…Putin’s friends, his government
[to] know – that they will have to pay for what they’ve done
with our country, with my family, and my husband. And that day
will come very soon," she declared, adding that “Vladimir Putin
must be held accountable for all the horrors they are doing to
my country, to our country – to Russia.”
Similar outpourings of grief and support have emerged from the
leaders and media of nations that have historically been aligned
against Russia. Navalny, it seems, has been able to rally more
support to his cause in death than he could while alive.
Navalny has been elevated into near mythical status as the
idealized symbol of “Russian democracy.”
But the truth is far different. ... ...
If United Russia could be denied its Duma majority, then Putin
would not be able to serve as Prime Minister. And a United
Russia defeat in the Duma elections in December 2007 could pave
the way for a similar defeat in the presidential election in
March 2008. For Kasparov, Gaidar, Navalny, and other leaders of
the opposition, this was an opportunity to bring an end to what
they viewed as the autocratic rule of Vladimir Putin.
The promoters of “democratic reform” (i.e., regime change) in
the State Department likewise believed this to be a unique
opportunity for change. Already, US-funded “color revolutions”
had swept aside autocratic governments in Serbia, Ukraine, and
Georgia. The hope was that a similar “revolution” could be
organized in Russia. One of the key elements for making this
happen was making sure that the opposition groups received the
funding necessary to enable their training and organization. In
addition to the NED and its two affiliates, the NDI and IRI,
money was dispatched to various NGOs and Russian individuals
covertly, using the CIA and British Secret Intelligence Service
(SIS).
The CIA was also involved in identifying, grooming, recruiting
and managing Russian political dissidents who could help
implement the American regime change strategy which targeted
Putin and his United Russia Party for the 2007-2008 election
cycle. One such dissident was a Russian journalist named
Yevgenia Albats.
Albats graduated from Moscow State University in 1980 with a
degree in journalism. She was the recipient of an Alfred
Friendly fellowship which saw her assigned to the Chicago
Tribune as a visiting journalist in 1990. Albats spent 1993 at
Harvard University after winning a prestigious Nieman
Fellowship, where she spent two semesters “auditing classes with
some of the university’s greatest thinkers, participating in
Nieman events and collaborating with peers.” ... ...
Albats had been placed on the CIA’s radar through her Alfred
Friendly fellowship. While at Harvard there is little doubt that
she was further groomed—perhaps without her being cognizant that
it was happening. ... ...
Albats returned to Russia in 2004, after successfully defending
her PhD thesis in political science. One of the first things
Albats did was to turn her Moscow apartment into a political
science parlor where she gathered young activists together for
the purpose of organizing them into politically viable entities
capable of impacting the upcoming Russian elections in
2007-2008.
One of these young activists she attracted was Alexei Navalny.
The Albats-run political parlor sessions, which began in 2004,
helped bring Navalny together with Maria Gaidar, and led to the
creation of the Democratic Alternative organization, as well as
Gary Kasparov (another member of the Albats parlor scene) and
his United Civil Front movement. One of the goals of the parlor
was to try and find a way to recreate in Russia the kind of
youth movement that was created in 2004 in Ukraine that helped
bring about the so-called Orange Revolution that prevented
Viktor Yanukovich from becoming president. This movement, Pora,
played an essential role in mobilizing opposition to Yanukovich.
Albats and her team of aspiring political scientists conceived a
Russian equivalent, which was called Oborona, or “defense.” The
hope of Albats, Gaidar, Kasparov, and Navalny was that Oborona
could serve as the impetus for the mobilization of the Russian
youth to oust Vladimir Putin from power.
As Albats worked to organize political dissent in Russia, the
foundation of western support upon which Russian political
opposition was built, namely the funding provided by
non-governmental organizations (NGO’s) such as the NED, was
exposed as being little more than a vehicle for the channeling
of illicit foreign intelligence services. In the winter of
2005-2006, the Russian Federal Security Service, or FSB, broke
up a sophisticated ring run out of the British Embassy involving
a so-called “spy rock”—a sophisticated digital communications
platform disguised as a rock—which enabled British spies to
communicate with their Russian agents without ever having to
meet with them.
The Russian agent would pass near the rock and, using a
hand-held communication device like a Blackberry, download an
electronic message onto a server contained inside the rock. The
British spies would then approach the rock and, using the same
kind of device, upload the message to their own device. The
scheme was discovered when a British spy, unable to retrieve the
message, approached the rock and gave it a few kicks to see if
the system would work. This attracted the attention of the

The “Spy Rock” used by
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040622153114-13801246.png<br
/>British intelligence officers to covertly communicate with
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040622153114-13801246.png<br
/>Russian agents.
But the most surprising aspect of the data retrieved from the
“spy rock” was the fact that at least one of the British spies
was using the device to transmit [b]information about how
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040622210450-1415528.gif<br
/>various NGOs could access covert
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040922144518.gif<br
/>funds being provided by the British government. [/b]Persons
from
the NGOs in question, who had been issued similar devices to
those used by their British masters, would download these
instructions from the “rock.” Based upon the intelligence
gathered from the captured server, the FSB was able to inform
the Russian leadership about the specific NGOs involved in these
illicit transactions. All in all, 12 Russian 😈
NGOs—including the Committee Against Torture, the Center for
Development of Democracy, the Eurasia Foundation, and the Moscow
Helsinki Group—were identified as receiving the 💰
illicit funds, which were administered as part of the British
Foreign Office’s Global
HTML https://soberthinking.createaforum.com/gallery/soberthinking/1-040622210450-1415528.gif<br
/>Opportunities Fund.
In the aftermath of the “spy rock” scandal, the Russian
government moved to create a new law on NGOs that imposed harsh
conditions on the registration and operation of NGOs,
effectively banning any NGO involved in politics from receiving
foreign funding. While the NGOs impacted by this new law, which
took effect in April 2006, denied any wrongdoing, they
acknowledged that the impact of the law would be to stifle
dissent before the 2007 Duma elections and the 2008 presidential
race.
Despite the crackdown on the British-affiliated NGOs, the
Albats-run “political parlor” continued to aggressively try to
coalesce a viable opposition effort in Russia. Egged on by
Albats and her theories about the political potential of ethnic
nationalism, in 2007 Navalny co-founded the democratic
nationalist National Russian Liberation Movement, an umbrella
organization which attracted far-right, ultranationalist
movements. The ideology of these groups is perhaps best
explained by Navalny’s efforts in coopting them to his cause.
Navalny made two videos during this time as a means of
introducing the new party to a larger Russian public. The first
video had Navalny comparing Muslims in Russia to pests and ended
with Navalny shooting a Muslim with a handgun, then declaring
that pistols were to Muslims like flyswatters and slippers were
to flies and cockroaches. 👀 😠 The second video
had Navalny comparing interethnic conflict to dental cavities
🤦‍♂️, implying that the only solution
was extraction.

Alexei Navalny in a 2007 video where he likens Muslims to
cockroaches who should be shot.
Navalny was kicked out of Yabloko in the summer of 2007, his
affiliation with far-right wing Russian nationalism a bridge too
far for the neo-liberal political party. But before his falling
out, Navalny was able to make an impression on his underwriters.
In March 2007 Navalny participated in the so-called “Dissenter’s
March,” walking side-by-side with one of the major organizers of
the protest, Gary Kasparov.
In the aftermath of the Russian crackdown on foreign funding for
NGOs, Kasparov had turned to a network of Russian oligarchs
operating out of London, where they colluded with the British
Secret Intelligence Service to fund political opposition in
Russia. The leader of this effort was the Russian oligarch Boris
Berezovsky, who had founded a non-profit organization, the
International Foundation for Civil Liberties, which served as a
front to accomplish Berezovsky’s publicly stated mission of
bringing down Putin “by force” or by bloodless revolution. ...
...
Albats’ influence on Navalny was discernable. Later, when
explaining why he had embraced right-wing nationalism, Navalny’s
response sounded like it could have been lifted from Albats’
Harvard doctoral thesis. ... ...
The 2007-2008 election cycle represented a devastating defeat
for the political opponents of Vladimir Putin and their western
supporters. For Navalny, however, it was liberating—he had grown
weary of the constant infighting and jostling for power within
the ranks of Russia’s political opposition. Instead, Navalny
began to pour himself into his new passion—"shareholder
activism.” ... ...
For the better part of the next year, Alexei Navalny focused on
his work with the Minority Shareholders Association, which he
publicly chronicled through his LiveJournal blog. Navalny was
still a relatively unknown person in Russia, but his David
versus Goliath approach toward uncovering corruption was
starting to attract the attention of government officials and
political junkies alike. Some people accused Navalny, through
his shareholder activism, of simply running a giant grift,
exposing corruption to extort payouts from the targeted
entities. Others questioned how he was able to pay for all of
his work, suggesting that he was being underwritten by entities
who did not have the best interests of the Russian government in
mind.
Others worried about his security. Navalny spoke about this
aspect of his life with a journalist in the winter of 2009,
noting that his fears revolved around being arrested “or in the
worst-case scenario with someone quietly having me killed.”
Before he had left Kirov, Alexei Navalny met with Maria Gaidar
to discuss his future. Gaidar had been a part of the political
science parlor run by Yevgenia Albats, and shared the opinion
expressed by Albats and Gary Kasparov that Navalny had potential
as an activist but lacked the kind of political refinement
needed to break out on the national stage. Gaidar was aware of
the Yale World Fellows Program, and strongly encouraged Navalny
to apply. ... ...
Albats turned to her Yale connections, and put Navalny in touch
with Oleg Tsyvinsky, a Yale economics professor, who helped
guide Navalny through the application process. Navalny was put
in touch with Maxim Trudolyubov, an editor with the
well-regarded Vedomosti business daily and an alumni of the Yale
World Fellow Program, Class of 2009. Trudolyubov used his
connections to have Vedomosti name Navalny its “Private
Individual of the Year” for 2009, helping firm up his resumé.
... ...
On April 28, 2010, Alexei Navalny made the following
announcement in his LiveJournal blog:
“Girls and Boys, I was lucky enough to get into the Yale World
fellows program at Yale University. It was not easy, the
competition was something like 1000 people for 15 places.
Therefore, I will spend the second half of 2010 in the city of
New Haven, Connecticut.” ... ...
In early August, Navalny, his wife Yulia, and their two children
left Moscow for New Haven. There, a new world order beckoned
that would forever change, and eventually cost, Navalny’s life.

While sexual assaults on Palestinian women are as old as the
Israeli war on the Palestinians, starting during the years of
the Nakba - the ethnic cleansing of Palestine in 1948 - there is
little evidence that Palestinians utilized sexual violence in
their struggle against the Israeli occupation.
Yet, on December 28, the US’ so-called newspaper of record, The
New York Times, claimed, in a supposedly comprehensive report
entitled ‘Screams without Words: How Hamas Weaponized Sexual
Violence on Oct. 7’, that Israeli women were

December 28, then in print on December 31.
Two leading Palestinian media organizations, The Palestine
Chronicle and Friends of Palestine Network, conducted a joint
investigation, based on media reports, in addition to historical
and political analyses.
The outcome of their investigation resulted in the launch of
‘The Black Dress’, an 18-minute documentary looking into The New

[center]Part Two: The Resurrection of Crimea[/center]
SNIPPET:
[move][b]Deliberate neglect, followed by a blockade and now war
have failed to break the resolve of the peninsula’s
inhabitants.[/move]
As the Russian military operation against Ukraine approaches its
third year, the focus on the ongoing conflict has allowed
another anniversary to go relatively unnoticed – it’s now around
ten years since the violent events in Kiev’s Maidan Square that
put in motion the circumstances which precipitated the current
conflict.
Over the course of five days, from February 18 to 23, 2014,
neo-Nazi provocateurs from the Svoboda (All Ukrainian Union
‘Freedom’) Party and the Right Sector, a coalition of far-right
Ukrainian nationalists who follow the political teachings of
Stepan Bandera and the Organization of Ukrainian Nationalists,
engaged in targeted violence against the government of President
Viktor Yanukovich. It was designed to remove him from power and
replace him with a new, US-backed government. They were
successful; Yanukovich fled to Russia on February 23, 2014.
Soon thereafter, the predominantly Russian-speaking population
of Crimea undertook actions to separate from the new Ukrainian
nationalist government in Kiev. On March 16, 2014, the
Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the city of Sevastopol, both
of which at that time were legally considered to be part of
Ukraine, held a referendum on whether to join Russia or remain
part of Ukraine. Over 97% of the votes cast were in favor of
joining Russia. Five days later, on March 21, Crimea formally
became part of the Russian Federation.

The Northern Crimea Canal after Ukraine blocked the water
supply.
Shortly afterwards, Ukraine built a concrete dam on the North
Crimean Canal, a Soviet-era conduit transporting water from the
Dnieper River that provided around 85% of the peninsula’s water
supply. In doing so, Ukraine effectively destroyed Crimea’s
agricultural industry. Then, in November 2015, Ukrainian
nationalists blew up pylons carrying power lines from Ukraine to
Crimea, thrusting the peninsula into a blackout that prompted a
declaration of emergency by the regional government.
The Ukrainian assault on Crimea’s water and electricity was
merely an extension of the lack of regard shown to the Crimean
population during the two-plus decades that Kiev ruled the
peninsula. The local economy was stagnant, and the pro-Russian
locals were subjected to a policy of total Ukrainization. In
general, the Gross Regional Product (GRP) of Crimea was well
below the average of Ukraine (43.6% less in 2000, and 29.5% less
in 2013). In short, the Kiev government made no meaningful
attempt to develop Crimea culturally or infrastructurally. The
Crimean Peninsula was in a state of decay perpetrated by
Ukrainian governments.
The damming of the North Crimean Canal and the destruction of
the electrical transmission lines were simply the radical
expression of the indifference shown by Kiev.
Scott Ritter will discuss this article and answer audience
questions on Ep. 138 of Ask the Inspector.

In the years that followed the return of the peninsula to
Russian control, there has been a gradual improvement in the
economy of Crimea. The Russian government undertook a $680
million program to bolster water supplies which involved
repairing long-neglected infrastructure, drilling wells, adding
storage capacity, and building desalination plants. While this
effort wasn’t sufficient to save much of Crimea’s agriculture,
it did provide for the basic needs of the population. The
Russian government also constructed the Crimean ‘Energy Bridge,’
laying down several undersea energy cables across the Kerch
Strait that effectively compensated for the loss of power
brought on by the destruction of the Ukrainian power lines.

The Crimean Bridge at night.
But the greatest symbol of Russia’s commitment to the people of
Crimea was the construction of a $3.7 billion, 19-kilometer-long
road-and-rail bridge connecting Krasnodar Region in southern
Russia with the Crimean Peninsula. The bridge is the longest in
Europe. Construction began in 2016, and it was opened for car
traffic in a little more than two years. It has become a symbol
of pride for the Russian people and their leadership; President
Vladimir Putin personally drove across the bridge during its
formal opening ceremony in 2018. The rail line was opened to
passenger traffic in 2019, and freight traffic in 2020. The
construction of the Crimean Bridge coincided with the building
of the Tavrida Highway, a 250-kilometer, $2.5 billion four-lane
road connecting the Crimean Bridge with the cities of Sevastopol
and Simferopol. Construction of the road began in 2017 and is
still ongoing.
From 2014 to 2022, Crimea saw its population grow by more than
200,000 (from 2.28 million to nearly 2.5 million) as families
forced to flee from Ukrainian oppression arrived, and other
Russians were attracted by the business opportunities that came
with Crimea’s economic revival. With the population surge came
new investments by the Russian government in schools, roads,
hospitals, and power stations. Tourism flourished as Russians
flocked to the beaches of the Crimean coast. A modern airport
was built in Simferopol to help manage the flow of visitors.
Life in Crimea was looking up.
And then came the war.

SNIPPET:
Tucker Carlson’s confused exasperation over Russian President
Vladmir Putin’s extemporaneous history lesson at the start of
their landmark interview, which was aired on February 9, 2024
(and which has since been seen by more than a billion people
worldwide), underscored the reality that, for a western
audience, the question of the historical bona fides of Russia’s
claim of sovereign interest in territories located on the left
bank of the Dnieper River, and which are currently claimed by
Ukraine, is confusing to the point of incomprehension (for the
cartographically challenged, the determination of what
constitutes the “left” and “right” banks of a river is
determined by the direction of flow of the river; the Dnieper
River flows from the north to the south, and as such the “left”
bank is the land located to the east of the Dnieper River).
Vladimir Putin, however, did not manufacture his history lesson
from thin air. Anyone who followed the speeches and writings of
the Russian President over the years would have found his
comments to Mr. Carlson quite familiar, echoing both in tone and
content previous statements made concerning both the viability
of the Ukrainian state from a historic perspective, and the
historical ties between what Putin has called Novorossiya (New
Russia) and the Russian nation.
Scott Ritter discussed this article on Ep. 143 of Ask the
Inspector.

For example, on March 18, 2014, during his announcement
regarding the annexation of Crimea, the Russian President
observed that “After the [Russian] Revolution [of 1917], for a
number of reasons the Bolsheviks—let God judge them—added
historical sections of the south of Russia to the Republic of
Ukraine. This was done with no consideration for the ethnic
composition of the population, and these regions today form the
south-east of Ukraine.”
Later during a televised question and answer session, Putin
declared that “what was called Novorossiya back in tsarist
days—Kharkov, Lugansk, Donetsk, Kherson, Mikolayiv and
Odessa—were not part of Ukraine then.

[size=14pt]These territories were given to Ukraine in the 1920s
by the Soviet Government. Why? Who knows? They were won by
Potemkin and Catherine the Great in a series of well-known wars.
The center of that territory was Novorossiysk, so the region is
called Novorossiya. Russia lost these territories for various
reasons, but the people remained.”

Vladimir Putin arrives to address the Russian Parliament about
Crimea, March 14, 2014
Novorossiya wasn’t just a construct of Vladimir Putin’s psyche,
but rather a notion drawn from historic fact that resonated with
the people who populated the territories so encompassed.
Following the collapse of the Soviet Union, there was an
abortive effort by pro-Russian citizens of the new Ukrainian
state to restore Novorossiya as an independent region which
would initially encompass Odessa, Mykolaiv, Kherson, and Crimea,
with the possibility of later expanding into other regions, such
as Zaporizhia, Dnipropetrovsk, and Kharkov.
While this effort failed, the concept of a greater Novorossiya
confederation was revived in May 2014 by the newly proclaimed
Donetsk and Luhansk people’s republics. But this effort, too,
was short lived, being put on ice in 2015. This, however, did
not mean the death of the idea of Novorossiya. On February 21,
2022, Vladimir Putin delivered a lengthy address to the Russian
nation on the eve of his decision to send Russian troops into
Ukraine as part of what he termed a Special Military Operation.
Those who watched Tucker Carlson’s February 9, 2024 interview
with Putin would have been struck by the similarity between the
two presentations.
While Putin did not make a direct reference to Novorossiya, he
did outline fundamental historic and cultural linkages which
serve as the foundation for any discussion about the viability
and legitimacy of Novorossiya in the context of
Russian-Ukrainian relations. “I would like to emphasize,” Putin
said, “once again that Ukraine is not just a neighboring country
for us. It is an integral part of our own history, culture, and
spiritual space. It is our friends, our relatives, not only
colleagues, friends, and former work colleagues, but also our
relatives and close family members. Since the oldest times,”
Putin continued, “the inhabitants of the south-western
historical territories of ancient Russia have called themselves
Russians and Orthodox Christians. It was the same in the 17th
century, when a part of these territories [i.e., Novorossiya]
was reunited with the Russian state, and even after that.”
The Russian President set forth his contention that the modern
state of Ukraine was an invention of Vladimir Lenin, the
founding father of the Soviet Union. “As a result of Bolshevik
policy,” Putin stated, “Soviet Ukraine arose, which even today
can with good reason be called ‘Vladimir Ilyich Lenin’s
Ukraine.’ He is its author and architect. This is fully
confirmed by archive documents.”

Ukrainian protesters topple a statue of Lenin in Kharkov,
January 2015
Putin went on to issue a threat which, when seen in the context
of the present, proved ominously prescient. “And now grateful
descendants have demolished monuments to Lenin in Ukraine. This
is what they call decommunization. Do you want decommunization?
Well, that suits us just fine. But it is unnecessary, as they
say, to stop halfway. We are ready to show you what real
decommunization means for Ukraine.”
