Nuland attempts Kiev Version 2.0 in Skopje
by Wayne Madsen - SCF16.02.2015 |
After
having initiated her well-planned Maidan Square uprising in Kiev in
early 2014, triggering Europe’s worst conflict in Ukraine since the
Balkan Wars of the 1990s, Victoria Nuland, Assistant Secretary of
State for European and Eurasian Affairs, recently attempted a Kiev-style
putsch in Macedonia aimed at overthrowing the democratically-elected government of Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski.
It
is a hallmark of neoconservatives like Nuland and her
arch-neoconservative husband, the Brookings Institution’s Robert Kagan,
to disregard democratic elections if their candidates fail to win
election. Although Ukrainian President Viktor Yanukovych and Macedonian
Prime Minister Gruevski were elected in free and fair elections, by all
international metrics and norms, their governments were not as pro-NATO
and pro-U.S. enough for the liking of Nuland and the Project for the New
American Century (PNAC) cabalists that surround her husband.
Nuland’s
tactics differed somewhat in her Ukrainian and Macedonian campaigns.
Her signature challah bread offerings to protesters at Kiev's Maidan
Square took the form of unsolicited offerings to the Macedonian press
suggesting that Gruevksi was wiretapping as many as 20,000 Macedonians
and that a videotape proving it was secretly made by Macedonia’s George
Soros-financed leader of the opposition, Zoran Zaev, in a meeting he had
with Gruevski.
Nuland
has been charged by Macedonian intelligence with conspiring with Zaev
of the Macedonian Social Democratic Union of Macedonia (SDSM), the
former Communist Party that has been thoroughly co-opted by the U.S.
Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) and Soros operative. Also charged in
the attempted putsch against Gruevski is Radmila Sekerinska. Zaev and
Sekerinska are said by Macedonian insiders to be nothing more than
fronts for former Prime Minister and President Branko Crvenkovski who
continues to head up the SDSM and accept large amounts of largesse from
such CIA NGO laundry operations as the National Democratic Institute
(NDI), National Endowment for Democracy (NED), Freedom House, and
Soros’s Open Society Institute (OSI) to foment a themed revolution
against Gruevksi's right-of-center VMRO-DPMNE government.
Gruevksi,
unlike many U.S.-installed and -influenced governments of the region
has been reluctant to apply sanctions against Russia over Ukraine. That
stance has earned the government in Skopje the enmity of the Obama
administration and most notably, Nuland, whose rhetoric echoes leading
neo-conservative war hawks such as Republican senators John McCain and
Lindsey Graham. In fact, Nuland’s husband has the distinction of working
as a foreign policy adviser for both McCain and presumptive 2016
Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton.
In
response to Zaev's charge that Gruevski wiretapped 20,000 Macedonians,
including taping phone calls between Zaev and his young daughter, the
Macedonian government charged that it was Zaev and his associates,
working with a foreign intelligence agency believed to be the CIA, to
overthrow Gruevski's government. An obvious flight risk, Zaev was
ordered to turn in his passport to the authorities. Others, in addition
to Zaev, accused of working with the CIA to oust Gruevski include Zaev's
associates Sonja Verusevska and Branko Palifrov, as well as the former
director of the Office of Security and Counter-intelligence (DBK), Zoran
Verusevski. Gruevski charged that Zaev threatened to disclose sensitive
information about his government provided to the SDSM by the CIA,
referred to as "the bomb" in the Macedonian media, unless Gruevski
appointed a caretaker government that would lead to early parliamentary
elections. Gruevski has called Zaev's gambit nothing more than blackmail
pressure in order that a snap election be called. As far as pressuring
the Gruevski government to resign and call early elections, Nuland
resorted to the same gambit that was used in Kiev to oust Yanukovych.
Frankfurter
Allgemeine Zeitung reporter Michael Martens, who reported on the
Macedonian coup plot, claimed in an interview with Macedonian television
that his initial report on the wiretapping issue had been altered by
certain parties inside Macedonia. Martens said that with a population of
2 million, to wiretap 20,000 people would have even far exceed the
capabilities of the East German Stasi. In any event, Martens said the
20,000 figure was not true and that Macedonian media and politicians had
misquoted him and his article. However, the truth has never been on the
side of provocateurs like Nuland and her neoconservative cabal of
plotters and disinformation specialists.
The
unapologetic foul-mouthed Nuland met on the side of the 51st Munich
Security Conference in Germany with Macedonian Foreign Minister Nikola
Poposki and President Gjorge Ivanov to express her displeasure at
Gruevski's insurrection charges against her friend Zaev and his SDSM
co-conspirators. Earlier, Nuland had offered to mediate a long-standing
dispute between Greece and Macedonia over the latter's use of the name
Macedonia, which some Greeks consider to be a solely Greek name.
Macedonian observers viewed Nuland's interest in the name dispute to be a
trap that would enable a pro-U.S. government, along with the Zionist
and global banker baggage that comes with any such «themed» coup
d'etat, to seize power in Skopje. Nuland and her co-conspirators were
hoping for a replay of Kiev in what can be termed «Kiev Version 2.0.»
Nuland
and her co-conspirators in Skopje are alarmed over the speed at which
the Macedonian security services rounded up the coup plotters.
Macedonian police, in raids conducted in Skopje and Veles, seized five
laptop computers, three desktop computers, 19 mobile phones, 100 CDs and
DVDs, 17 hard disks, and 9 savings deposit books used by the coup
plotters, including a number linked to Soros-financed NGOs. The bank
accounts of the plotters reportedly were flush with healthy cash
deposits from the CIA as the date of the planned coup approached.
The
use of social media by the Soros/CIA coup plotters should come as no
surprise. Social media served at the very core of the themed revolutions
sponsored by the CIA and Soros twice in Ukraine (Orange Revolution and
Euro-Maidan uprising), Jasmine Revolution (Tunisia), Lotus Revolution
(Egypt), Rose Reviolution (Georgia), Tulip Revolution (Kyrgyszstan), and
Green Revolution (Iran). In the case of Macedonia, there are clear
indications that the Deputy Assistant Secretary of State in the Bureau
of Democracy, Human Rights and Labor (DRL) Thomas Melia, responsible for
DRL’s work in Europe, including Russia, as well as the Middle East and
North Africa, conspired directly with Zaev to mount a coup against the
Gruevski government. Melia is the former deputy director of Freedom
House, a Cold War-era neoconservative bevvy of U.S. war hawks based in
New York.
Although founded in 1941 by such progressives as Eleanor
Roosevelt, Ralph Bunche, journalist Dorothy Thompson, novelist Rex Stout
(creator of Nero Wolfe), and Republican presidential candidate Wendell
Willkie (who would be considered by today's Republicans in the U.S. as a
stark-raving liberal), Freedom House has devolved into a
neoconservative chatter source having employed as their board members in
recent years such war hawk cretins as Paul Wolfowitz, Ken Adelman,
Zbigniew Brzezinski, Donald Rumsfeld, and Otto Reich.
Freedom House has
been caught red-handed funneling CIA money to opposition groups in Iran,
Sudan, Russia, and China. In essence, Freedom House, like Soros's NGOs,
serves as a conduit for CIA support for rebellious opposition forces in
dozens of countries around the world, countries that now include
Macedonia, as well as Hungary, Venezuela, Syria, Egypt, Serbia, Jordan,
Mexico, and Cuba.
What
occurred in Macedonia was a classic disinformation ploy to mire the
democratically-elected government in a bogus political scandal. The ploy
is directly from the CIA playbook and it is now being carried out
against Presidents Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner of Argentina, Dilma
Rousseff of Brazil, and Michelle Bachelet of Chile. All face financial
scandals cooked up by the CIA and its owned and operated media in the
three nations. In Macedonia, the Soros-influenced media and Radio Free
Europe are part of the operation.
Nuland’s
vulgar language is only matched by the vulgarity of her backroom
operations to unseat democratically-elected governments. «Nuland» should
become a noun meaning disgraceful diplomatic conduct, in the same
manner as the terms «quisling,» meaning «traitor» and derived from the
actions of Norwegian Nazi leader Vidkun Quisling, and «boycott,» meaning
the cessation of all business with a targeted entity and made famous by
Irish land agent Captain Charles Boycott, became part of the English
language.
