Commentary by Russian military journalist Boris Rozhin
[ColonelCassad] 1. It is obvious that the story with Bucha simply one in one copies a similar methodology of staged accusations that everyone could observe in Syria (regardless of whether the participants in the staged picture are alive or dead) since 2012, when only "bloody Assad" did anything in Syria.
2. It is obvious that such stories will continue, as they have continued in Syria for many years. Moreover, in the next episodes of the series, we will surely see the series "The sinister attack of the Russians using chemical weapons."
In Syria, this was done by "fighters for the freedom of Syria." In Ukraine, "fighters for the freedom of Ukraine" are doing this. The template is the same, because the owner of all this action is the same. The performers shoot a picture for the media, which is used by diplomats to encourage further action. Moreover, at all levels, the process is controlled from one center.
3. Russia's arguments in the mainstream media and at the diplomatic level will not be accepted, because this is not a discussion, but a war of annihilation. Therefore, the facts provided by the Russian Federation will be swept aside according to the principle "if the facts contradict faith, then so much the worse for the facts." What kind of faith they want to impose is not difficult to assess from the rhetoric of the US-controlled neoliberal media.
4. Nevertheless, it is important for Russia to explain the mechanism of such provocations inside the country for its own citizens, as well as to work with those groups in Western society that also did not buy into the "stories about the atrocities of the Assad regime" - on the one hand, there are anti-imperialist leftists, and on the other hand, the alt-right. So, you can't go all out on this job.
5. Of course, such provocations will be used to impose new sanctions against the Russian Federation and intensify the supply of weapons, as well as to demonize the Russian Federation and dehumanize its population.
6. It is important to remember from the Syrian experience - despite a whole bunch of such provocations, they did not help the United States and its satellites achieve victory in the Syrian war. Neither Eastern Ghouta nor Khan Sheikhoun prevented Assad's victory.
Accordingly, realizing the meaning and consequences of such provocations, as well as taking the necessary measures to stop them, it is necessary to continue operations in Ukraine until the goals are achieved, which, in fact, they are trying to prevent with such provocations.
If you have already declared to fight the "Empire of Lies", be prepared for its usual tools of warfare. And then, just another provocation, and some have already hung their noses. Don't worry, there will be more. More cynical and bloody.
Learn to take a hit.
PS. In the title photo, an attempt by Ukrainian propaganda to break through a new bottom, passing off the body of a girl killed in Mariupol (filmed by Patrick Lancaster) as a "victim of Russian troops in Gostomel." This is again to the question of what the authors of fakes about the "genocide in Bucha" feed the audience with.
