Yulia Tymoshenko wants to nuke 8 million Russians in the Ukraine

As I have mentioned before, Tymoshenko really appears to have suffered a great deal in Yanukovich's dungeon and now she is clearly "gone fishing".  The latest telephone leak (thanks SVR, and keep up the great work!) shows her actually suggesting that the Banderites *nuke* the 8 million Russians living in the Ukraine.  She also proposes to make Russia a scorched field.  Let me immediately reassure everybody - the Ukraine does not have nuclear weapons, never had them, never will have them.  You can take that to the bank.  To Tymoshenko's partial exculpation, she is clearly venting in a fit of frustrated rage and not actually giving orders to a (non existing) Ukrainian military.  Still, this is a very good illustration of how all these freedom loving, smiling, Ukrainian nationalists really think.  Keep in mind that Tymoshenko's party "Batkivshchyna" (or Fatherland) is by far the most "moderate" (to the extend that any of these Banderites can be considered moderate) and that Klichko's Udar party is worse, that Tiagnibok's Freedom Party (aka "Social Nationalist" party) is even worse, and that they all are comparatively sane and moderate when compared to Iarosh's "Right Sektor" who can only be compared to the Croatian Ustashe or the Hutu Interahamwe.  And its the Right Sektor which currently has all the guns (only small stuff, thanks God, stuff that is only useful to terrorize civilians, not something you could use against the "Polite Armed Men in Green").

But listen for yourself to that crazy conversation (in Russian, not in Ukrainian, I would add):

I smell a rat

Call my paranoid (I am). Call me distrustful (I am). Call me cynical (I am). But I still smell a rat and the stench of that rat is getting stronger every minute.

Take a look at this BBC article about the election results in the Ukraine.

Observers from the Organisation for Security and Co-operation in Europe (OSCE) were unusually blunt, warning the country's political leaders they should listen to the people's verdict and make sure the transition of power was peaceful (...) International monitors described the election as an impressive display of democracy. The OSCE's head of mission, Joao Soares, said Ukraine's electoral commission had been transparent and unbiased. (...) The US embassy in Kiev described the election as "another step in the consolidation of Ukraine's democracy".

Are we really talking about the same Ukraine were the last presidential elections were "so bad" that all the Western observers unanimously supported the "Orange Revolution"?! Are we really to believe that after years of corruption and a raging economic crisis (since 2008 the national currency, the Hryvna, has lost 48% of its value) this election was squeaky clean?! What about the many complaints of the Tymoshenko camp who claims over that vote rigging occurred at 1000 polling stations? What about the allegations that at least one Tymoshenko observer was found dead? What about the allegation that pretty much all the vote in the East and South of the country was rigged?!

Keep in mind that unlike what happened recently in Iran, the result of the Ukrainian elections are very close: according to the BBC. with 99.94% of votes counted after Sunday's poll, Mr Yanukovych had won 48.94% to 45.48% for Mrs Tymoshenko. Since it is far easier to rig a narrow election than a landslide, why is nobody taking the time to ascertain whether Yanukovich did not "steal" this election as he supposedly did the last time? Why are all the protests of Tymoshenko ignored?!

Am I the only one smelling a big stinky rat here?!

Here is my interpretation of what is going on. The Empire's propaganda machine (no, not the corporate press, the "independent" "defenders" of "democracy" such as the NGOs, OSCE, etc.) is giving it's full support to Yanukovich and that can only mean one thing: the "Imperial High Command" considers Yanukovich as co-opted.

Can I prove this? Nope. Not only that, but I even consider it possible that Yanukovich himself is playing the same game as so many other politicians which the Empire considered co-opted and who used the Empire for their own goals only to better ditch it later.

So no, I don't know if Yanukovich has already become a USraelian puppet, but I bet you that the USralians think that he has.

As always, only time will show the truth of the matter.
