HRW, which is apparently an arm of the CIA, the State Department and other parts of the US Deep State, is lying again, just like they always do. At this point, we need start rejecting HRW reports because many of them are simply US government propaganda and lies.
Right now there is a war going on in the Ukraine where Ukrainian Nazis are fighting against Russian antifas and partisans.
The West has gone into full war propaganda mode because the Nazis are very strong allies of the West. The anti-Nazis, the antifas who are fighting fascism, are instead seen as the enemy of the West. So the West once again is lining up with fascism and Nazism as it has done so many times in the past. The reason they are lining up behind the Nazis is that the Nazis are fighting the Russians.
The West has decided that Russia is the worst enemy of the West for no coherent reason at all. The West will support anyone willing to fight Russia. In this case, the Nazis were used as NATO pawns in a plot to install a Nazi regime next door to Russia and to steal Russia’s only warm water naval base in Crimea.
The Nazis came into power and promptly disenfranchised most of the Russians in the east. Genocidal calls were made to kill them all, Russians were attacked, their language was outlawed. Pro-Russian lawmakers were attacked by Nazis. The Nazis then banned all pro-Russian political parties. A number of members of these parties were killed or beaten. The Nazis tried to kill the leader of the main pro-Russian party by setting his house on fire, but they set the neighbor’s house on fire instead.
Right now, all pro-Russian parties have been made illegal, driven out of the country or terrorized into nonexistence. The Nazis started killing Russians right away. In Odessa, Nazis killed over 130 unarmed Russian protestors with gunshots, garrotes and beatings. All of the women were raped. The bodies were then set on fire so they could not be identified. People trying to escape were murdered.
The vast majority ok Ukrainians are Nazi supporters, so they cheered on these crimes. The government lied about the attack, saying that the protestors set themselves on fire. The survivors were chased down and arrested or murdered. The arrested were charged with terrorism for almost getting murdered by Nazis and sentenced to long prison terms. The West supported the Odessa pogrom 100% and reported only the Nazis’ side of the story. The West repeated the lies that the protestors were all Russian spies and they had set themselves on fire.
Many cities in the East are under a terror occupation by a hostile army. Civilians are regularly shot dead, arrested, beaten and tortured in Mariupol. Residents’ cars are stolen at gunpoint and pro-Nazi graffiti is all over town. Nazis walk into stores and steal whatever they want. Many young women and girls have been raped and a number of them have died of their injuries. Sometimes whole groups of girls are picked up to be gang-raped.
In reaction all of these Nazi crimes, a group of antifas rose up in the East and declared independence from the Nazi state. The Nazis then attacked. And so the war was on.
The two incidents in question in the HRW article involve artillery shootings that killed 41 civilians and wounded over 100 more.
The first was in Mariupol and was immediately blamed on the antifas in spite of the fact that the Nazis fired the shells.
On January 24, unguided rockets, probably launched from rebel-controlled territory, killed 30 civilians and 1 solider in Mariupol and wounded more than 90 civilians. One rocket struck the courtyard of a school.
There were no Nazi troops where the shells fell so there would be no reason for the antifas to fire on their own supporters. And the antifas are careful not to kill these civilians either because most in Mariupol supports the antifas. Also the shells that were used were Urugans and the antifas had no Urugans in the area. There was a rebel group nearby where the shells fell though. Apparently the Nazis were targeting this group and the shells fell short.
The people on the ground were 100% insistent that the shells all came from Nazi-controlled territory. It is hard to believe that they were all wrong. Nevertheless the lying OCSE and HRW conducted “investigations” that concluded that the antifas attacked their own supporters in an area with no Nazi troops for no apparent reason. So the OCSE and HRW are in war propaganda mode and nothing they say should be believed.
On January 13, unguided rockets, also probably launched from rebel-controlled territory, killed 12 civilians and wounded 18 at a checkpoint near Volnovakha.
This is the Volnovakha case. There were no antifa artillery shells that landed in the area. The bus driver and the survivors all said that the casualties occurred when the people in the bus ran into the woods, frightened by artillery 1 mile up the road. In the field, they triggered a land mine attached to a tree. Many of the bodies were blown back into the bus. OCSE and HRW came out and lied and said an antifa shell caused the losses when instead it was a Nazi mine.
