More contrarian perspectives on the Bucha war crimes

Visita, quaeso, Domine, scripta mea et omnes insidias inimici ab eis longe repelle.
Angeli tui sancti habitent in eis et me in pace atque in bona valetudine custodiant.
Domine, fac me instrumentum tuum ut ubi error est veritatem inseram.  Amen.







The recent comments of Russia’s president on Bucha (https://web.archive.org/web/20220412204228/https://www.rt.com/russia/553765-putin-bucha-massacre-comment) provide me with the opportunity to finally publish this transcript of a ‘video lecture’ of Gonzalo Lira’s, entitled ‘Why the West hates Russia’, and which I listened to on 5th April. Mr Lira offered his opinions on this major instance of Ukrainian war crimes, the Wests hatred of Russia (among other topics) a day after he had removed a thorough analysis of his (some 55 minutes long) of the mass killing of what appears to have been mainly pro-Russian civilians in Bucha  (https://seed307.bitchute.com/hDEh8gB57aSI/mfOjFCynMrPp.mp4) as a pre-emptive move to avoid the loss of his channel on YouTube.

TRANSCRIPT

Now uh the first thing I want to talk about is uh Bucha. Bucha is bullshit. It’s this complete bullshit, okay? Uh it’s absolutely positively clear that the Russians had cleared out Bucha in their uh strategic uh redeployment on the 30th of March, okay? The 31st of March, the mayor of Bucha said that they had complete control of the city, that Ukrainian forces could come in and that everything was hunky-dory. And there were no bodies on the street and, because if there had been bodies on the street on the 31st, he would have said so. I mean, come on, you saw those video images: the bodies were all over the goddamn place, right? Now it’s very clear because that so many of these bodies they had white armbands, which is the way that the Russians uh the Russians used white armbands to signal that they were friendlies. And the Ukrainians have blue or sometimes yellow. Now it’s clear that all these people were assassinated: they were kidnapped, taken some place, shot, probably tortured and then their bodies were, you know, dumped very photogenically in different places, okay? Uh there was no question that it was the Ukrainians. No question. And why is there no question? Because the Ukrainians have done it before, simple. The Ukrainians have lots of times done that. On my Twitter feed: RealGonzaloLira [https://twitter.com/realgonzalolira], which I’m still locked out of for a few more days, uh, you know, on the first pinned tweet, there are the names of people that have been kidnapped, many of them assassinated, from that list, some of them are still, you know, held by SBU thugs and who, god knows who, but uh yeah, and in so far as Mariupol [He meant Bucha], the Russians did it, and there are so many testimonials of civilians in Mariupol who said that the Ukrainians did it, that the Ukrainians shot at civilians, used civilians as human shields, tied up, tortured civilians, murdered them in cold blood while they were tied up and dumped them wherever. So many accounts that it … it’s not a psyop. It’s real, okay? And as I’ve told you, I personally know two people – personally, okay? Now these people have family in Mariupol and they have told me that, they have told me that their parents or … or close relatives very close relatives uh were experienced being shot at by Ukrainian soldiers, okay? So it’s not like, you know … And of course, you know, who am I? Maybe I’m making this up. Okay, fine, I’m making it up. But how come all of these video testimonies pretty much back this up? You go on Telegram and you just um put Mariupol human rights abuses and you’ll find a whole bunch of videos, man. It’s incredible, okay? It’s all over the place, hm. And why would the Russians who’ve been in … in Bucha for like four weeks – and they allowed everybody to use their cell phones to send selfies and Facebook and all that good crap, right, for all those weeks, they were like there for four weeks; they never interfered with the civilian population; they never killed anybody hm, any civilian okay? Uh there was … Bucha was a hard-fought neighbourhood uh but once the Russians had captured it, they never messed with the civilians. The biggest thing that happened was that a lot of times uh Russian soldiers…would swap some of the foods they had for some fresh food – you know, dried goods that they’d get, you know, for their rations for like, you know, fresh milk or fresh cheese and bullshit like that. I mean, you’re trivial, right? And not even contraband per se: just swapping between civilians and soldiers – and it’s perfectly acceptable. Anyway, the Russians never abused the civilians. Never, okay? And then on the last day, they’re going to shoot a bunch of people, you know – apparently 400 peoplethey’re going to shoot 400 people who had been helping them distribute humanitarian aid in that neighbourhood. That doesn’t make any sense, it doesn’t make any goddamn sense, doesn’t make any sense at ALL, okay? I think the mistake that the Russians made was that they should have emphasised to these people: ‘Look, you helped us. You’re going to be targeted by these crazies. Get on these buses and we will take you with us to wherever you want to go, okay? I think that was the low mistake the Russians made, that they should have evacuated these people because, apparently, these people were killed because they were considered to be collaborators, because they had assisted the Russians in distributing humanitarian aid. They had done this trivial … trivial uh trading commerce, which is trivial because it wasn’t even with cash; it was just, you know, swapping stuff um you know. This trivial kind of thing and, out of anger, and of uh the fact that they’re losing the war, which I’ll get to in just a moment, uh all this stuff, they just lashed out, okay? They lashed out at the Ukrainians. Not the Russians. The Russians, the Russians did not do this, period, okay? There’s something else, too. Yesterday, I did a video about this, you know, more lies. And I floated the possibility that they might have been mannequins because some of them looked so weird. They looked stiff. And, now, I realise what must have happened: they must have been shot elsewhere, they were shot elsewhere and they started suffering rigor mortis and then later they were moved and dumped in the street and because of rigor mortis some of their limbs were still stiff and they looked like mannequins, they … they looked stiff, okay? Because they were starting to stiffen up because of rigor mortis, okay? I think that’s what my hind brain must have picked up and that’s why I thought ‘Oh, you know, they look like mannequins’. No, they weren’t mannequins. It’s that they were starting to stiffen up from when they were shot before. Because it seems … it seems that they were um taken to uh different places, different locations underground uh tied, and of course tied up before they were tortured and shot, and then their bodies were removed from these killing areas and then moved over outside and placed in specific areas and dumped. Now I’ve also seen some videos uh very interesting videos of like somebody filming from far away, as Russian [Gonzalo Lira makes the inverted quotation mark signs with his hands] soldiers shoot these civilians, okay? It’s very grainy and it’s very from far away like, you know, when you zoom in with your phone, right? And there’s like heavy breathing and then these people are shot, right? You know, what it reminded me of, it reminded me of ‘lonely girl 15’. Those of you who are old school Internet dweebs – like me – will remember ‘lonely girl 15’. ‘lonely girl 15’ way back, I wanna … I mean it must have been two thousand six, two thousand something like that. Uh I mean 15 years ago at least, ‘lonely girl 15’ was the first viral sensation. It was this girl who did these videos – and very compelling videos – and she seemed to belong to some sort of satanic cult, right? It turned out to be like a whole … just hoax, okay? She was a professional actress, not some 15 year old girl and uh it was … it was … it was just entertaining. I remember watching and I was like ‘Jesus, this is really compelling crap’, right? And a lot of people were watching these videos, you know, it was on YouTube back in the day. And …and in the end it was just a big hoax, okay? But some of the videos were like that, were like filmed from far away. And you could hear the … the sound of … of breathing of like, you know, fear on the part of the person filming this … this distant event and I was like ‘Man, this is just like lonely girl 15’. The whole Bucha thing is bullshit and I think actually the name of it, Bucha, I think it was deliberately chosen because it sounds like butcher in English. Butchery, I mean … I wouldn’t put it past these fuckers okay these … these people are masters at manipulation, okay? And they’re such cynical scumbags. One of these guys, I’ve … I … I forget the name of the guy, Ironovitch or something like that [I think he meant Oleksiy Arestovych] I … I posted on my Telegram feed [https://t.me/realCRP/4151]. You know, uh Patrick Lancaster, whom I admire tremendously – and if Patrick you’re listening, you are a … since my man you are just all kinds of cool. Patrick Lancaster, a few days ago uh a little less than a week ago, he was in Mariupol and he came across a dead girl who had been tortured and raped and murdered. And they’d uh sort of like cut or smeared – it’s unclear what kind of wound she had; it was clearly like blood, probably her own blood, and also but … like cut and burned – it was clear, but they had carved in her belly and chest uh a swastika. I mean: really disgusting and despicable. And um and Patrick uh filmed that. You know, it’s very powerful and it must have weighed on Patrick quite a bit –it certainly weighed on me as a … as just somebody who saw it, okay? I saw the video him being there, must have been shocking to him, you know. And so anyway um this … this um blogger adviser to Zelensky, you know, some crazy ass, neo-Nazi, lunatic, right? He was the guy who did this video uh, this adviser to Zelensky, did this video where he admired ISIS and … and said how ISIS was just wonderful, what they did, okay? Just a crazy guy, he took Patrick Lancaster’s uh uh a still from Patrick Lancaster’s footage and claimed that it was uh um a woman, a Ukrainian woman killed by Russians in um Gostomel or some place … place and someone place around uh Kiev. When of course it was a Ukrainian woman who had been killed in Mariupol by Ukrainian forces, Azov battalion forces, indisputably, okay? I mean: think how cynical it’s – such a cynical bastard – to … to take something that his own people had done, a victim of his own disgusting neo-Nazi thugs, and pass it off as having been done by Russians. And … and you know, oh poor us, you know, how cynical, how evil, you know, I mean: really evil. It’s on my Telegram channel [https://t.me/s/realCRP]. Go check it out: it’s one of the last posts I made uh before this broadcast, okay? So, anyway, the whole Bucha thing screw, that … that’s all Russian and it’s all like desperation because what’s going on is that, see, the Ukrainians are losing and everyone knows it and so far as the professional militaries around the world every ministry of defence … defence department, everybody in Europe and … and certainly China, Indian [sic], all the professional military men they know that it’s over, okay?

POSTSCRIPT

This terrible set of war crimes happened after the redeployment of the Russian army to the Donbass region so that it may concentrate its forces to crush what is left of the Ukrainian army encircled in that region.

As a rule of thumb, whenever the West’s mendacious media are peddling the same news story, this is usually a sign that they are acting in unison to further common objectives: in this case, further sanctions against Russia and an escalation of the West’s (and Japan’s and South Korea’s?) involvement into the Ukrainian-Russian conflict plus régime change in Russia.

Although
Russia’s international news outlet RT has been made inaccessible in the West (so that one needs to use a proxy, a commercial VPN service, Tor or the Opera browser with the VPN option activated to read the articles of RT or Sputniknews), those souls wishing to gain access to the perspective of the other warring party may do so by consulting the many articles, interviews or other pieces of content made available by the many (non-Russian funded) information providers which do not simply regurgitate the official propaganda sanctioned by their government but instead offer more balanced views on the war.

Below are a few information sources about the Bucha massacre which present a contrarian perspective on this terrible event. Please note that I retrieved the following reference material yesterday and that fresher perspectives will invariably be published over the next few days.

Another interesting perspective is that of Ryan Cristián:
