Putin Predicted Washington Would Employ Assassination Tactic Against Russia
The Saker provides a one minute video with translation of Putin
explaining two years ago the Russian government’s concern that an
overseas entity would use a false flag assassination within Russia in
order to create an “involuntary martyr” that the Western media would use
to demonize Russia. (Nemtsov Murder: Putin
Warned About Exactly This Type of “False
Flag” By The Saker)
According to this report by The Saker (The Boris Nemtsov Assassination: Russia’s “Non-system” Opposition Refuses to Blame the Kremlin), the Washington-financed Russian opposition has not, as Washington
hoped it would, joined the Western anti-Putin media campaign. Possibly
the Washington-financed Russian NGOs have wised up from observing events
in Ukraine. In place of “more democracy,” they got a Washington stooge
government squandering Ukraine’s last cent on a losing war.
The most likely explanation of Nemtsov’s murder is that the CIA
decided, as Nemtsov was completely marginalized as an opposition
politician with 5% as against Putin’s 85%, that Nemtsov was worth more
dead than alive. But the ploy, if that is what it is, has not worked
inside Russia.
Part of the circumstantial evidence that Nemtsov’s murder was a CIA
tactic to destabilize Russia is the orchestrated US media. The New York
Times, Washington Post, Wall Street Journal, NPR, and the rest of the
presstitutes were ready on cue with reports insinuating that Putin was
responsible. Stephen Lendman has done a good job tracking the US
media’s unquestioning adherence to Washington’s propaganda line. (The Great American Lying Machine)
On February 28 NPR’s report consisted of a sound bite from a
dissident Russian in exile who implied that Nemtsov was actually a rival
to Putin with the population split between the two and that Putin
eliminated his rival. No counterview to this abject nonsense was
offered. At one time NPR was an alternative voice. Today NPR belongs
to the Republican Party and the corporations whose advertising revenues
are larger than listener donations.
If the Russian investigation discovers CIA involvement, the Russian
government will keep it quiet. The audacity of Washington murdering a
washed-up Russian politician in order to blame the Russian government
bespeaks of war. Putin, unlike Washington, does not want war. If the
culprit(s) is not found, it will look like a coverup. So someone has to
be blamed. The Russian police have already suggested that possibly the
key to the murder is the attractive young woman with Nemtsov when he
was shot down. Nemtsov might have been trespassing on the property of a
dangerous man, possibly a member of the Russian mafia.
Like everything else that happens, Americans will be given by the
presstitutes an explanation that coincides with the interests of
Washington. All who rely on the US media will never know why Nemtsov
was murdered, or anything else for that matter.
