In reporting and commenting on the conflict in Ukraine we Boggart Bloggers have tried to look deeper into the situation than mainstream media propaganda mouthpieces which have simply passed on the Russophobic misinformation and fake news contained in the official naratives. Russia bug bad bully, brave little Ukraine resisting being pushed around the stories go but it is not quite that simple, things never are.
Eva Bartlett in a name that has featured in these pages before. In 2016 we brought you summaries, snippets of, and links to the Canadian independent journalists reports from within Syria's war zone revealed how western governments and their media mouthpieces were using fake news, misinformation and downright lies to whip up support for their sponsored and stage managed proxy war in this middle east which was intended (but failed,) to bring down the Assad regime.
Now Eva Bartlett is in the Donbas region of Ukraine, sending back reports on how the one - sided reporting of the war in that unfortunate country give the impression that the atrocities andwar crimes are all being committed by Russian troops. Bartlett's reports show that similar atrocities are being committed by Ukrainian troops against members of Russian speaking minorities in eastern Ukraine and that military and paramilitary forces under the control on the neo - Nazi paskudnyaks in Kiev are carrying out false flag attacks on Ukrainian citizens in order to fabricate stories that will fuel propaganda aimed at persuading citizens of the liberal democracies to accept direct military intervention in the conflict by the NATO powers, this triggering a global, nuclear conflict.
Ukrainian strike on Donetsk market was a false flag terrorist attack

If the Donetsk marketplace that was hit by rocket artillery on Thursday had been in a city controlled by Kiev, the names and faces of the five civilians killed would be on all major news sites. But because it was another Ukrainian attack on civilians in the Donetsk People's Republic (DPR), the deaths and 23 additional civilians injured will almost certainly go unreported, as has the been the norm during the regime’s eight years of the Donbass and Western media’s eight years of ignoring the attacks.
According to the DPR's Healthcare Ministry, “The strike at the Tekstilschik neighbourhood in the Kirovsky district killed four people on the spot. One patient died in an ambulance during the transportation.”
With another journalist, I went in a taxi to the bombed markets. Two of the dead still lay at the site when we arrived, splayed on the ground. The other bodies had already been removed, but traces of their blood remained on the ground, doors nearby were riddled with shrapnel holes and debris from the strike was all around.
Presumably, rescue workers dealt with the injured first and didn’t prioritize retrieving all the dead as further Ukrainian strikes were possible. I saw this during my experience in Gaza, where Israeli's waited for people to come to the scene of their attack, then bombed again.
According to Gennady Andreevich, a local employee of the district's safety commission, at 11:40 am Grad missiles struck two different nearby markets: the vegetable and clothing market where the bodies lay, and a household chemicals and building materials market across and down the street. The latter was far more damaged, stalls completely burnt out, but no one was killed there.
Gennady walked with us to the vegetable market, speaking about previous Ukrainian attacks–which have been happening since 2014. More recent shellings hit near a gas station outside the market, at a residential building beyond the market, and in his own market administrative building, killing two colleagues.
He noted that at this time of day the market would have been filled with people, and that Ukraine knows very well what it is firing at.
“They know there is a market here and that from 10am to 1pm there are many people here,” Gennady said as we walked past shops.
This is a completely civilian area, no military installations.

British Government Laundered Fake U.S. 'Intelligence' On Ukraine
The British government on Saturday accused Russia of organizing a plot to install a pro-Moscow government in Ukraine, as the Kremlin masses troops near the Ukrainian border.
