All young men aged 25-35 being arrested in Slavyansk

Not only is the fascist junta led by Petro Poroshenko responsible for these outrages; not only the White House, who directs things from behind and justifies the outrages. It is the world media who quote the lies of the authorities without question – and are complicit in crimes against humanity.

Atrocities carried out by Ukrainian forces



POSSIBLE PROVOCATION ALERT! PLEASE SHARE! THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!

Via Facebook

The information was verified from local sources. It is being reported that heavy construction equipment appeared in the outskirts of Slavyansk and is being used for excavations. The excavation perimeters are heavily guarded by the regime troops; check points have been raised around and patrols are being set. Apparently, the Kiev regime is trying to reveal their own burial grounds, where they previously buried soldiers, conscripts and all those who refused to fire on civilians and their guards.

This links to some recent information received from Kiev that there is evidence suggesting that the Western propaganda apparatus is going to mount a report telling about the "atrocities" committed by the self-defence forces - murder of peaceful civilians and security forces. Given that there are already unburied victims among the civilian population of Slavyansk following the aggressive bombardments on the city from the past few days, sources in Kiev suggest that the report is scheduled to be ready for tomorrow.

This report would be exactly what the regime needs to continue its genocidal campaign and take on the last bastion of resistance in eastern Ukraine - Donetsk.


PLEASE SHARE this as much as you can to prevent this vile provocation!

Summary the new Russia, the day of the forty-fourth, 07.07.




At night under Karlovci again booze. In Krasnodon, a quarter of the Forest, ukrop completely broke artillery Church on the place of death 80 miners killed by a methane explosion at the barakova mine.

In Kramatorsk, Slavyansk goes dressing, the Ukrainian fascists carry out fingerprinting of male population and conduct rapid analysis on presence of traces of gunpowder (use American instrument). The smell of gunpowder from hands you can delete a weak bleach solution, from the smell of service better get over it (you can burn). Aware that nachazi are shootings of civilians suspected of having links with the militia has already killed about two dozen people.

In Krasnyi Liman about 300 Dogs quartered in the gymnasium and the private sector in their policemen. So put a check mark for themselves about the traitors who help the Nazis.


Upon receipt of information and opportunities summary will be updated.


UPD: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT! The verified information from the source. In the area of the outskirts of Slavyansk, previously the position of the troops of the junta appeared construction equipment. Being excavated, the territory is guarded around the perimeter placed posts of nazhalov, patrols; apparently reveal their own burial grounds, where they were previously bury soldiers, conscripts, who refused to fire on civilians and their guards.
Especially it also correlates with other information received from Kyiv - there is evidence that ukrpromugol going to mount a report telling about the "atrocities" of the militia, they say they say shot peaceful citizens. Given that there are already the first dead among the civilian population after the entrance of ukrepov in Slavyansk and Kramatorsk, the provocation could be held literally today or tomorrow. A source from Kiev reported that the report is scheduled for tomorrow. Please provide distribute the situation in social networks, to prevent this vile provocation.

Tsarev: all young men aged 25-35 being arrested in Slavyansk

Overnight, they arrested all policemen and took them out of the city", - speaker of the parliament of the Union of Lygansk and Donetsk People’s Republics said



6 JULY, 2014


MOSCOW, July 06. /ITAR-TASS/. The Kiev authorities are arresting all men aged from 25 to 35 in Ukraine’s southeastern city of Slavyansk, not bothering to find out whether they were members of self-defence forces or not, speaker of the parliament of the Union of Lygansk and Donetsk People’s Republics Oleg Tsarev told the Russia 24 television channel on Sunday.


Overnight, they arrested all policemen and took them out of the city. They are arresting all young men aged from 25 to 35, not even trying to find out whether these men took to arms or not. Searches are underway. They are trying to find those who helped take care of the wounded,” he said.



NEXT STEP for this EU-USA supported Nazi-like Porishenko is not only to kill civilians with army, but to create concentration camps.... genocide and new holicaust!

Information and disinformation in the Syrian civil war


I would be the first to acknowledge that in wars there are atrocities on both sides and that it is very difficult to find the truth in situations of war.

There is, however no doubt that we are being fed propaganda, half-truths, lies and disinformation in our western media.

This next article which certainly does not come from a disinterested party (Iran's Fars News Agency) is as shocking as any of the massacres ascribed to Syrian government militias.

Terrorists Hang Shiite Child after Killing Family Members
TEHRAN (FNA)- Terrorists in Syria hanged a small Shiite child after killing all his family members in Damascus, human rights activists in Iraq unveiled on Monday.


6 August, 2012

According to a report by Iraq's Qanon news website, Iraqi human rights activists said that armed rebel groups attacked the house of a Shiite Iraqi family in the Seyede Zainab neighborhood in the capital city of Damascus, killed all members of the family and hanged the last one, a little child. 
 
The footages and pictures of the rebels' brutality which surfaced online in the last few days are revealing the terrorist nature and the war crimes of the opposition fighters in Syria.

The massacre is said to have badly damaged the western-backed rebels and opposition forces' ability to claim the moral high ground in their fight against Damascus and showed their accusations that Syrian President Bashar Assad's forces are conducting war crimes are nothing but lies.

Meantime, Saudi Wahhabi cleric Mohammad al-Arifi has called on Syrian armed groups to prevent leakage of the pictures and footages of their attacks against Syrian army and civilians.

In his Tweeter page, Arifi asked rebel groups to continue their attacks and intimidation against Syrian people but do not allow a release of the pictures and footages of their operations.

In a similar crime last week, terrorists in Syria brutally executed 15 civilians in the Northwestern city of Aleppo on charges of supporting the Bashar al-Assad government.

The terrorist members of the so-called Free Syrian Army on Tuesday attacked Al Berri family in Bab al-Neirab neighborhood in Aleppo who are famous for their pro-government stances, and kidnapped 15 family members and executed them in front of a local school.

Syria has been experiencing unrest since March 2011 with organized attacks by well-armed gangs against Syrian police forces and border guards being reported across the country.

Hundreds of people, including members of the security forces, have been killed, when some protest rallies turned into armed clashes.

The government blames outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups for the deaths, stressing that the unrest is being orchestrated from abroad



This next video has being doing the rounds on You Tube and serves as yet another example of how the news out of Syria is being concocted.

I suppose if you are a western media corporation with interests in common with the western governments and you have no direct access to Syria you might have to make it all up.

Judge for yourself what you think is going on

Caught: Staged CNN Syria Interviews Faked By Activist Danny

Syria activist Danny, the poster child to justify a military invasion in Syria, caught staging entire CNN interviews including directing fake gunfire off stage.

Raw video footage of the Syria activist Danny as he waits to do a live video interview with CNN shows him directing off-stage fake gunfire and explosions, as well as being directed to tell CNN he has been retrieving the bodies of civilians from buildings that collapse due to Syria army mortar fire. It also shows Danny totally exaggerating a sense of fear and urgency as he goes from being totally calm, smiling and even somewhat bored before the on air interview starts to acting totally scared, hysterical and pretending he is in the middle of a war zone as soon as the actual interview starts.

I have condensed footage of the original video to remove 5 uneventful minutes of watching him waiting around before the interview because most people will not stay interested long enough to get to the parts were he starts directing his off-stage actors to start the faked off stage gunfire. Also below are two detailed reports from the Intel Hub and Infowars on this incident, which outline more faked activist reports and other crimes committed by the rebels.





HERE is "official" coverage (from the Washington Post) of 'the voice of Homs' , who has now left Syria

The Syrian conflict


I am offering this as an alternative to the propaganda of the western media.

Horrors of war: Mass grave discovered in Damascus
As the Syrian Army expelled rebel forces out of the capital of Damascus, soldiers discovered a mass grave of 20 corpses buried under rocks and other debris.



RT,
6 August, 2012

The mass grave was uncovered in the Yelda district of Damascus, which had been under rebel control for the past few days. The 20 corpses the army dug up were burnt and defaced, said China’s Xinhua news agency.  
Armed men harassed and killed the civilians, and then buried the bodies, locals told RT Arabic’s correspondents. Some described the stench of dead corpses blanketing entire areas of the city. The victims reportedly include both civilians and military personnel. Others claimed that the number killed is much higher than the 20 reported.
RT Arabic filmed footage of the gravesite, but it was confiscated by police as they were leaving.

Evidence of acts of mass-murder has been surfacing in the past month. An amateur video from Syria emerged online showing the apparent mass execution of Assad supporters in Aleppo by Free Syria Army rebels on July 31. The footage showed several bloodied men in their underwear being forced to kneel by a wall amidst an excited crowd, before they were shot dead.
This latest violence comes days after Kofi Annan announced that he will resign as the UN-Arab League Special Envoy to Syria at the end of August.

Dodging the Draft: Syria bloodbath forces soldiers to flee

As the number of dead in the Syrian conflict mounts, both the government and opposition are racing to replace fallen soldiers with fresh recruits. While the rebels allegedly turn to mercenaries from abroad, the regime has little to choose from. Some Syrians are now trying to escape the draft to avoid killing or being killed.

THE HOULA MASSACRE: Opposition Terrorists "Killed Families Loyal to the Government"


This report from today's al-Jazeera give the western view of the massacre that has taken place in Syria.

Human Rights Council condemns Syria for last week's killings in Houla and calls for UN probe to identify perpetrators.

However, the first victim is often the truth.

Given what we already now about the strategic importance for the west of overthrowing the Assad government as a way of depriving Iran of one of its key allies, and the covert support given to the opposition groups it seemed to me that there must be more to the propaganda version emanating from western media and Qatari al-Jazeera.

Because there are no really independant journalists on the ground it seemed that we would never know.

But, almost as an answer to my prayers came this article by Russian journalist Marat Musin who has written a comprehensive report countering what are obviously fabrications and lies coming from the western media who have jumped to blame the Syrian regime just as they jumped to support the official version of 9/11.

To be objective it has to be acknowledged that the Russians have their own strategic interests in the area which they are protecting, so their reports also have to be treated with some caution, but my judgement is that this version of events is far more likely to be closer to the truth than what we are getting from western MSM.

THE HOULA MASSACRE: Opposition Terrorists "Killed Families Loyal to the Government"
Detailed Investigation

by Marat Musin


1 June, 2012

Global Research Editor's Note

This incisive report by independent Russian journalist Marat Musin dispels the lies and fabrications of the Western media.

The report is based on a chronology of events as well as eyewitness accounts. Entire pro-government families in Houla were massacred. The terrorists were not pro-government shabbiha militia as conveyed, in chorus, by the mainstream media, they were in large part mercenaries and professional killers operating under the auspices of the self-proclaimed Free Syrian Army (FSA):

"When the rebels seized the lower checkpoint in the center of town and located next to the local police department, they began to sweep all the families loyal to the authorities in neighboring houses, including the elderly, women and children.

Several families of the Al-Sayed were killed, including 20 young children and the family of Abdul Razak. The people were killed with knives and shot at point blank range.

Then they presented the murdered [corpses] to the UN and the international community as victims of bombings by the Syrian army, something that was not verified by any marks on their bodies."

We call on our readers to forward this report far and wide, post it on facebook. .

The massacre in Houla is being blamed on the Syrian government without a shred of evidence. The objective is not only to isolate Syria politically and economically, but to develop a pretext and a justification for waging an R2P humanitarian war on Syria.

The US Ambassador to the United Nations Susan Rice has hinted that if the Security Council does not act, the US and its allies may consider "taking actions outside of the Annan plan and the authority of the [UN Security] Council.”

This report by Marat Musin confirms that crimes against humanity are being committed by terrorist militia.

It is essential to reverse the tide of war propaganda which uses civilian deaths as a pretext to wage war, when those killings of civilians were carried out not by government forces but by professional terrorists operating under the helm of the US-NATO sponsored Free Syrian Army.


Michel Chossudovsky, Global Research, Montreal, June 1, 2012

.....

In the weekend of May 25, 2012, at about 2 PM, big groups of fighters attacked and captured the town of Al – Hula of the Homs province. Al-Houla is made up of three regions: the village of Taldou, Kafr Laha and Taldahab, each of which had previously been home for 25-30 thousand people.

The town was attacked from the north-east by groups of bandits and mercenaries, numbering up to 700 people. The militants came from Ar-Rastan (the Brigade of al-Farouk from the Free Syrian Army led by the terrorist Abdul Razak Tlass and numbering 250), from the village of Akraba (led by the terrorist Yahya Al-Yousef), from the village Farlaha, joined by local gangsters, and from Al Houla.

The city of Ar-Rastan has long been abandoned by most civilians. Now Wahhabis from Lebanon dominate the scene, fueled with money and weapons by one of the main orchestrators of international terrorism, Saad Hariri, who heads the anti-Syrian political movement “Tayyar Al-Mustaqbal” (“Future Movement”). The road from Ar-Rastan to Al-Houla runs through Bedouin areas that remain mostly out of control of government troops, which made the militant attacks on Al Hula a complete surprise for the Syrian authorities.

When the rebels seized the lower checkpoint in the center of town and located next to the local police department, they began to sweep all the families loyal to the authorities in neighboring houses, including the elderly, women and children. Several families of the Al-Sayed were killed, including 20 young children and the family of the Abdul Razak. Many of those killed were “guilty” of the fact that they dared to change from Sunnis to Shiites. The people were killed with knives and shot at point blank range. Then they presented the murdered to the UN and the international community as victims of bombings by the Syrian army, something that was not verified by any marks on their bodies.

The idea that the UN observers had heard artillery fire against Al-Houla in the Safir Hotel in Homs at night… I consider nothing short of a bad joke. 50 kilometers lie between Homs and Al-Houla. What kind of tanks or guns has this range? Yes, there was intensive gunfire in Homs until 3 am, including heavy weapons. But, to give an example, on the night of Monday to Tuesday shooting was due to an attempt by law enforcement to regain control for a security corridor along the road to Damascus, Tarik Al-Sham.

After a visual inspection of Al Hula it is impossible to find traces of any of fresh destruction, bombing and shelling. During the day, several attacks by gunmen are made on the last remaining soldiers at the Taldou checkpoint. Militants used heavy weapons and snipers made up of professional mercenaries were active.

Note that once, the exactly same provocation failed at Shumar (Homs) and 49 militants and women and children were killed, when it was organized just before a visit of Kofi Annan. The last provocation was immediately exposed as soon as it became known that the bodies of the previously kidnapped belonged to Alawites. This provocation also contained serious inconsistencies – the names of those killed were from people loyal to the authorities, there were no traces of bombings, etc.

However, the provocation machine is running all the same. Today, the NATO countries directly threat to bomb Syria, and a simultaneous expulsion of Syrian diplomats has begun … As of today, there are no troops within the city of Al Hula, but there are regularly heard bursts of automatic fire, nonetheless. Moreover, it is unclear whether the militants are fighting with each other, or whether supporters of Bashar al-Assad are being cleaned out.

Militants opened fire on virtually everyone who tries to get closer to the border town. Before us a UN convoy was fired upon and two armored jeeps of the UN observers were damaged, when they tried to drive up to an army checkpoint in Tal Dow.

In the attack on the convoy a twenty-year-old terrorist was spotted. The fire was directed on the unprotected slopes of the first jeep, the back door of the second armored car was hooked by a fragment. There are wounded among those accompanying.

According to a wounded soldier:

The next day, UN observers came to us at the checkpoint and as soon as they arrived, gunmen opened fire on them. And three of us were injured. One was wounded in the leg, the second – in the back, and I was hit in the hip.

When the observers came, they could hear a woman who was standing next to them and cried, the woman stood and pleaded the observers’ help – to protect her from the bandits. When I was wounded, the observers watched as I fell, but none of them tried to help. Our checkpoint no longer exists. There are no civilians any longer in Taldou, only militants remain. Our relationship to the locals was excellent. They are very good to us; they called on the army to enter Taldou. We were attacked by snipers.”

Unfortunately, many of the militants are professional snipers. 100-200 meters from our group TV-crew, militants attacked a BMP that went to replace soldiers at the checkpoint. During this a soldier – draftee got a concussion and slight tangential wound in the head by a sniper bullet. Looking at the pierced Kevlar helmet, it seems he did not even realize that he survived by a miracle.

Snipers kill up to 10 soldiers and policemen at checkpoints each day. It is true, that the daily casualties of law enforcement agencies in Homs were dozens of victims daily. But, unfortunately, at 10 am, six dead soldiers were taken to the morgue. Most were killed by a shot in the head. And the day had just begun…

So, these are the names of those were killed by snipers in the early morning hours of May 29:

1. Sergeant Ibrahim Halyuf
2. Sergeant Salman Ibrahim
3. Policeman Mahmoud Danaver
4. Conscript Ali Daher
5. Sergeant Wisam Haidar
6. the dead soldier’s family name could not be clarified

The bandits even fired an automatic burst on our group of journalists, although it was clear that this is a normal filming crew, consisting of unarmed civilians.

HOW THE ATTACK BEGAN

After Friday prayers at about 2 PM on May, 25th a group from the Al Aksh clan started firing on a checkpoint of law enforcement officers from mortars and rocket-propelled grenades. Returning fire from a BRDM hit the mosque, and this was the very aim to lead to a bigger provocation.

Then, two groups of militants led by the terrorist Nidal Bakkour and Al-Hassan from the Al Hallak clan, supported by a unit of mercenaries, attacked the upper checkpoint on the eastern outskirts of the city. At 15.30 the upper checkpoint was taken, and all the prisoners executed: a Sunni conscript had his throat cut, while Abdullah Shaui (Bedouin) of Deir-Zor was burned alive.

During the attack on the upper checkpoint in the east, the armed men lost 25 people, which were then submitted to the UN observers, together with the 108 dead civilians – “victims of the regime”, allegedly killed by bombing and shelling of the Syrian army. As for the remaining 83 bodies, including 38 young children, they were from the families that were executed by militants. These families were all loyal to the government of Syria.

Interviews:

With a law enforcement officer:

My name is Al Khosam, I am a law enforcement officer. I served in the village of Taldou, the district of Al-Houla, a province of Homs. On Friday, our checkpoint was attacked by a large group of militants. There were thousands.

Q: How do you protect yourself?

Answer: A simple weapon. We had 20 people, we called support, and when they were coming for us, I was wounded, and regained consciousness in the hospital. The attackers were from Ar-Rastan and Al-Hula. Insurgents control Taldou. They burned houses and killed people by the families, because they were loyal to the government. Raped the women and killed the children.”

Interview with a wounded soldier:

I am Ahmed Mahmoud al Khali. I’m from the city Manbej. Was wounded in Taldou. I come from a support group that came to the aid of our comrades, who were stationed at the checkpoint.

Militants destroyed two infantry fighting vehicles and one BRDM standing at our checkpoint. We moved out to Taldou in a BMP, to pick up our wounded comrades from the checkpoint within the city. We drove them back in the BMP, and I filled in their place.

And after a while the UN observers came. They came to us, we led them to the homes of families who were cut by thugs.

I saw a family of three brothers and their father in the same room. In another room we found dead young children and their mother. And another one- an old man killed in this house. Only five men, women and children. The woman raped and shot in the head, I covered her with a blanket. And the commission had seen them all. They put them in the car and drove away. I do not know where they took them, probably for burial.”

A resident of Taldou on the roof of the police department:

On Friday afternoon I was home. Hearing the shots, I came out to watch what was happening and saw that the fire came from the north side, towards the location of army checkpoint. As the army did not respond, they started to approach the homes, were subsequently the family was killed. When the army started to return fire, they used the women and children as human shields and continued firing at the checkpoint. When the army began answered, they fled. After that, the army took the surviving women and children and brought them into safety. At this time, Al Jazeera aired pictures and said that the Army committed the massacre at Al Hula.

In fact, they killed the civilians and children in Al-Hula. The bandits did not allow anyone to carry out their work. They steal everything that they can get their hands on: wheat, flour, oil and gas. Most of the fighters are from the city of Ar Rastan.”

After they captured the city, they carried the bodies of their dead comrades, as well as the bodies of people and the children they killed to the mosque. They carried the bodies in KIA pickups. On May, 25th, at around 8 PM, the corpses were already in the mosque. The next day at 11 o’clock in the morning the UN observers arrived at the mosque.

Media Disinformation

To exert pressure on public opinion and change the positions of Russia and China, texts and subtitles in Russian and Chinese languages were prepared in advance, reading: “Syria – Homs – the city of Hula. A terrible massacre perpetrated by the armed forces of the Syrian regime against civilians in the town of Houla. Dozens of victims and their number is growing, mainly women and children, brutally killed by indiscriminate bombing of the CITY.”

Two days later, on May 27, after the residents’ stories and video recordings made showed that the facts do not support the allegation of shelling and bombing, the bandits’ videos had undergone significant changes. At the end of the text appeared this postscript: “And some were killed with knives.”
