NATO’s Pet Nazis Savage Ukrainian Presidential Candidate April 15, 2014

Ukrainian presidential candidate Oleg Tsarev was savagely beaten outside a TV studio after an interview for the Ukrainian talk show, ‘Svoboda Slova.’ The studio was apparently surrounded by armed men in masks earlier, preventing Tsarev from leaving after the interview. When he did finally emerge, masked men with Svoboda Neo-Nazi “Wolfsangel” armbands began throwing objects at, choking, and physically beating Tsarev.

Dramatic video of the confrontation was captured, and exposes the successors of the “Euromaidan” protests as not a “pro-democracy” movement, but a mob using violence and intimidation to disrupt and destroy all political opposition to their agenda.

In an earlier report titled, “ Ukraine: The Anti-Maidan Begins,” the various components of the “Euromaidan” protests were broken down illustrating how violent Neo-Nazi fanatics and ideologues were the rule, rather than the exception in Kiev before the violent overthrow of the elected government of President Viktor Yanukovych. The mobs that attacked Tsarev outside the studio he had given an interview in, appear to have ties to Svoboda’s street front, one of the central political parties that led the “Euromadian,” and a party that now enjoys three top ministry positions within the newly installed Kiev regime...

The incident described is deplorable. I think all can agree. The analysis, however, is a series of lies disguised as analysis. It is a familiar game... 1) look! Here's a nazi, 2) thus Russia is awesome and everyone in Ukraine is a nazi.

But is it RT or Infowars?

The intended propaganda take-away is the same as any Russia Today disgorgement, but an astute reader will have noted that the writing here is more vivid than the usual Russia Today treatment. "NATO's pet Nazis" is in the "not bothering to pretend this isn't propaganda" zone and marks is as an Alex Jones production, rather than an official Russian foreign ministry propaganda release. So if you guessed Infowars you won.

6. always an easy game, RT has a specific sort of stilted, out of date style that

rings a brittle bell that is easily identified.
