NeoCons Trying to Turn Belarus Into Another Ukraine/Libya

[AngryCanadian]

Pro NATO forces are trying to swing Belarus away from Russia. They are trying to isolate Russia. A tactic which had being used by the fascists during WW2 there are protests happening in Belarus trying to repeat the same chaotic result as what happened in Kiev Ukraine under the Obama admin.

The protestors as usual foolish believe that in NATO countries they will have democracy and freedom dispute the lockdowns and craziness already happening.

Syria regime change has failed so now they are shifting their focus onto Belarus without realizing a single move there could result into a military response by Russia's military.

Neoconservatism is a mental disorder.

The ghost of McCain will be displeased, but that isn't going to work.

Russia has recovered its strength to the point that they aren't going to allow the US to control (any more of) their neighbors.

That doesn't mean that the US can't wreck the country, but they won't control it to the point that they can bring it into NATO, etc.

Note the difference between Russia and Iran, for instance; the former has enough nuclear weapons to kill everyone in the W. hemisphere.

Therefore, the options of the McCains in D.C. are more limited.

I’m (almost) sure that it’s just a coincidence that riots broke out in Belarus earlier this month....
Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko refused to lockdown the country over the coronavirus “pandemic”!

President Lukashenko responded to the demands of the IMF and World Bank to lockdown or no loans would be provided:

It is ready to fund us ten times more than it offered initially as a token of commendation for our efficient fight against this virus. The World Bank has even asked the Healthcare Ministry to share the experience. Meanwhile, the IMF continues to demand from us quarantine measures, isolation, a curfew. This is nonsense. We will not dance to anyone's tune.

It remains a mystery how to find information on another series of mass protests orchestrated to bring down a regime that doesn’t bow down to the New World Order.
I first searched for “Belarus orchestrated protests”, which brought up nothing worthwhile; then I searched for “Belarus protests William Engdahl” and found the following article that is quite good...

I’ll start with the most important information that shows interference from the USA.
The protests in Belarus use the same model that the CIA and its various NGOs, led by the National Endowment for Democracy (NED), have repeatedly used.

In 2019, the NED funded some 34 grants to anti-Lukashenko activities in Belarus. The grants went to projects like:
NGO Strengthening: To increase local and regional civic engagement... to identify local problems and develop advocacy strategies;
NGO Strengthening: To foster youth civic engagement;
Expand an online depository of publications not readily accessible in the country, including works on politics, civil society, history, human rights, and independent culture;
To defend and support independent journalists and media;
Training democratic parties and movements in effective advocacy campaigns.
Get the picture!

A key role in coordinating the “spontaneous” protests was played by the Warsaw-based (in Poland) texting and video channel Nexta (Belarusian for “somebody”).
Nexta is headed by the 22-year old Belarus exile in Poland, Stepan Putila (a.k.a. Stepan Svetlov). Stepan Putila has previously worked for the Warsaw-based Belsat channel which is funded by the Polish Foreign Ministry and (again) USAID.

With the Belarus Internet shut down, Nexta posted videos of protest and police crackdown. It quickly became the centre of the Belarus “Colour Revolution”.
Nexta has sent information through social media: plans for protests (including where and when), where cops are assembled and ways how to bypass internet blocking (by using proxies).
Nexta has also circulated protesters’ demands, updates about arrests, locations of arrests by riot police, contact information to lawyers and human rights defenders and addresses where protesters can hide in. advised subscribers how to bypass internet blocking by using proxies and other means.

Even more interesting is the co-founder of Nexta since March 2020, another Belarus exile, Roman Protasevich. Protasevich has worked for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty (that’s US Government media).
Protasevich also worked for the Polish-based Euroradio, which is funded by USAID. He was also pictured in the CIA’s 2013-14 Maidan Square demonstrations in the Ukraine.
In April 2018, Protasevich went to the US State Department in Washington (for instructions?). On his Facebook page he wrote, “The most important week in my life begins". He also posted the following picture, stating "Never had so many important and interesting encounters in my life. Tired but very pleased".
See Roman Protasevich, inside the US State Department, 23 April 2018.


Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, who ran against Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko (who won the election in a landslide) after her husband was arrested and prevented to run, claims she won the election based on exit polls. On 14 August, Tikhanovskaya announced that she was forming a "coordination council" to secure a peaceful transfer of power.
On Monday, Sviatlana Tikhanovskaya met Donald’s Deputy Secretary of State Stephen Biegun in Lithuania — obviously to instruction her on what to say/do.

In response to the CIA-orchestrated riots, Donald’s Secretary of State Mike Pompeo said the Trump regime “has been inspired by the display of peaceful expression of the Belarusian people seeking to determine their own future”.

Belarus President Aleksandr Lukashenko refused to lockdown the country over the coronavirus “pandemic”! By 13 August, Belarus had recorded a total of 617 COVID-19 deaths. One very important point is that the Belarus Health Ministry ignored the bizarre WHO recommendations to classifying COVID-19 fatalities on nothing more than “suspicion”.

The Western “democracies” have long been trying to get rid of Lukashenko. In 2008, Bush Jr.’s Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice denounced Lukashenko as Europe’s “last dictator” (this is echoed in the current propaganda): http://williamengdahl.com/englishNEO21Aug2020.php

Our wonderful media continue to report on the thousands of protesters in Belarus.

Sometimes these stories are actually based on the US intelligence financed NEXTA’s twitter account (not banned of course): https://twitter.com/nexta_tv


See for example the following report of thousands of protesters at the streets of the capital Minsk and other cities to protest against President Alexander Lukashenko’s morning inauguration.
According to Belarus authorities, 364 people were arrested, of which 252 in Minsk alone.

The USA and European Union condemned the election as “neither free nor fair” and criticised the “violent police crackdown” on the protests in Belarus. The EU has been warning about sanctions against the Belarusian leadership: https://apnews.com/article/alexander...84ae265bc5090f


The following article argues that in reality there are no massive protests, and the “color revolution” is already finished.
The following photo shows a total of some 2000 people protesting in Minsk. That isn’t very much in a city of 2 million, and they were only the “rich city kids” (I don’t know what they mean by that!).


Obama’s deputy national security advisor Ben Rhodes posted on 11 Aug 2020 (confirming that this is “our fight”):

Americans have to recognize that the fight against Lukashenko in Belarus is our fight. He is part of the same trend that has ravaged the US, Russia, Turkey, Hungary, Hong Kong, Brazil, Israel, Egypt, the Philippines, Zimbabwe, and others. We need sustained solidarity in response.

I’m not sure how the people in Belarus would read that: https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/bel...has-killed-it/
(http://web.archive.org/web/20200830043557/https://www.thelibertybeacon.com/belarus-this-color-revolution-is-already-dead-the-union-state-has-killed-it/)


Maybe this was the intention of the protests all along.

Our wonderful media have often pictured Lukashenko as a mere puppet of Russian President Putin, but in reality he wasn’t.
Now with nowhere else to go, Lukashenko has asked Putin for help (making him dependent on Chabad-friend Putin).

On 14 September 2020, Lukashenko met Vladimir Putin in Sochi.
Putin’s Russia will provide an emergency loan of $1.5 billion to the Lukashenko administration: https://www.voanews.com/europe/putin...5-billion-loan


This looks similar to the Ukraine of 2013, which also was orchestrated by CIA-front National Endowment for Democracy (NED), when Russia offered to lend $15 billion to then Ukrainian president Viktor Yanukovych after the foreign-orchestrated Maiden protests...

The ambassador to Russia under Obama, Michael McFaul, explained 7 steps needed to incite a successful revolution - the "7 Pillars of Color Revolution".


This is happening now in both Bolivia and Belarus: https://syncreticstudies.com/2014/12...ore-mechanics/

The image of the so called protests shows how small the actually small the protests in Belarus actually are. Most of those protesting could be just students in universities or students.
Anything for their specif program.

Here’s some information on the role Amnesty International plays in orchestrating the Belarus protests…
I’m just glad that nobody is “shocked” by Amnesty International – front for Anglo-American intelligence under the guise of defending “human rights”: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthr...=1#post6983704

The world is shocked by images and reports exposing police using brutal violence against peaceful protestors as the Belarusian authorities wage a vicious crackdown on their own citizens. Sign the petition demanding that the police violence ends now.
Right now, thousands of ordinary Belarusian people have taken to the streets across the country to protest what they see as a rigged presidential election, after the incumbent Alyaksandr Lukashenka’s claimed a landslide victory on 9 August.

https://www.amnesty.org/en/countries...-asia/belarus/

President Aleksandr Lukashenko was elected to office in 1994, and since that time his government has been authoritarian. The Belarusian government has cracked down on opposition leaders and movements, and abused civil rights to freedom of assembly and association.

https://www.amnestyusa.org/countries/belarus/

In August, Amnesty International staged protests in front of the Belarus Embassy in Brussels.

Wonderful isn’t it?!? Lukashenko evil, Boris and Donald good (please don’t mention the Queen, who’s such a “sweet” old lady)!

Not very surprisingly, NATO member Lithuania, backs the attack on Belarus president Lukashenko, “by providing visas, housing and financial support to opposition figures; promoting Belarusian activists in Lithuanian universities, including awarding educational scholarships at the expense of the Lithuanian Ministry of Education, Science and Sports; simplified employment in the Lithuanian labor market; and, free medical services”.

Maybe the plan really is to drive Lukashenko into the claws of Vladimir Putin: https://www.globalresearch.ca/lithua...shenko/5727563


The protests in Belarus appear to be orchestrated from Poland (ultimately following orders from Washington and London).

Lithuania is also part of the Polish President Andrzej Duda proposed “Three Seas Initiative” (for the Baltic, Adriatic and Black Seas) that includes Poland, Croatia, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Hungary, Bulgaria, Romania, and Slovenia.
Its second meeting in Warsaw, Poland in July 2017 was attended by US President Donald Trump on his way to the Hamburg G20 Summit: http://www.williamengdahl.com/englishNEO6Dec2017.php

The organized protests/riots in Belarus feel like a distraction from what is happening in America.
I do think the protests will probably vanish after 2020.

The "notorious Russian pranksters" Vladimir Kuznetsov and Alexey Stolyarov, posing as leading Belarusian opposition figure Svetlana Tikhanovskaya, in a sting operation tricked the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) to reveal how they manipulate Eastern European political movements.

NED's Nina Ognianova confirms that the NED played a key role in igniting the street protests that rocked Belarus in August 2020, after Alexander Lukashenko declared victory in the country’s presidential election.

We believe that this long-term trust-building that we have had with partners in Belarus has indeed brought the events, or the build-up to the events, of last summer.
We don't think that this movement that is so impressive and so inspiring came out of nowhere - that it just happened overnight, but it has been developing and we have our modest but significant contribution in that by empowering the local actors to do the important work.

The president of NED, Carl Gershman, added that the US state-backed agency was already working with Tikhanovskaya “very, very closely” and asked “how we can be helpful”.


Gershman also tells about infiltrating Russian opposition groups, in part to monitor these groups: https://www.rt.com/russia/523956-reg...belarus-prank/

While "nobody" seems to have heard of the NED admitting to manipulate "democracies" in Eastern Europe after being tricked by 2 "Russian pranksters", there is a media hysteria over president Alexander Lukashenko forcing a Ryanair plane to land in Belarus.

The following recently deleted article (account suspended) from 28 April is also interesting, I archived the Bing cache-version...

A 21 January 2021 plan by the Atlantic Council's Anders Aslund, Melinda Haring, John E. Herbst, and Alexander Vershbow details the blueprint for meddling in Belarus affairs by the Biden administration (continuing where Donald left).

Recent years have seen no better chance for US leadership to facilitate lasting positive change in Europe than the crisis in Belarus. But how to secure democratic change in Belarus is not simple given internal resistance and Moscow’s determination to prevent another color revolution.

If this isn't meant to get rid of Lukashenko, it will surely make Lukashenko dependent on Russian president Vladimir Putin: https://archive.is/Uzms4
