It was claimed that a Russian Iskander missile hit the village of Hroza (Groza).<\/p>\n<p>Russia did not make any comment on the specific accusations, simply repeating that its military does not deliberately target civilian centers.<\/p>\n<p>The carnage on Thursday, October 5, occurred at the very same time that Ukrainian President Vladimir Zelensky was addressing a summit in Granada in Spain attended by European Union leaders. Zelensky referred to the missile strike in highly emotive language, condemning it as \u201cRussian genocidal aggression\u201d. EU leaders joined in the denunciation of Russia.<\/p>\n<p>The BBC <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/world-europe-67025706\">quoted<\/a> Zelensky as saying the act \u201ccouldn\u2019t even be called a beastly act \u2013 because it would be an insult to beasts\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The purpose of Zelensky\u2019s attendance in Granada was to make a renewed appeal for European NATO members to supply more air defence systems to Ukraine. It was <a href=\"https:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/ukraine-receive-more-hawk-air-170947862.html?guccounter=1&amp;guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&amp;guce_referrer_sig=AQAAABNybFUBTaXD8aNzUY3z5g1jh850tvlFL3cHPm6ZizvjMKrXB_ZDl7-GvjW35DfcUZqAEEh3XX-9FiGZnS98rOEjLPhYtpK%20\">reported<\/a> that Spain pledged to send the U.S.-made HAWK system to Ukraine.<\/p>\n<p>Zelensky also told European leaders that the political turmoil in the United States over the abrupt Congressional cutting off of financial aid to Ukraine was a \u201cdangerous situation\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>The Biden White House referred to the missile strike on the village of Hroza as a reminder to U.S. lawmakers why continued military aid to Ukraine is essential.<\/p>\n<p>As several Western media <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2023\/10\/06\/europe\/ukraine-hroza-russian-missile-attack-civilians-intl-hnk\/index.html\">reports<\/a> acknowledged, the targeted village with a population of around 300 did not have any military or tactical value. It is located around 17 miles (27 kms) from the front line between Ukrainian and Russian forces in the Kharkiv region.<\/p>\n<p>The victims of the explosion were attending a funeral for a Ukrainian soldier. If Russia fired a missile it would have been for a depraved reason, as the Western media and politicians like Britain\u2019s Prime Minister Rishi Sunak were quick to allege.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, cynical as it might seem, for the Kiev regime there was a big incentive to stealthily carry out the missile strike against its territory for the propaganda value of blaming Russia. The timing comes at a crucial moment when the Kiev regime is \u201cfreaking out\u201d over the possible long-term cutting off of military aid by the U.S. and its NATO partners.<\/p>\n<p>Such a false-flag provocation carried out by the Kiev regime has precedent, albeit not reported by the Western media.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, on September 6, the U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken arrived in Kiev with an additional $1 billion in military and financial aid. Hours before Blinken arrived, the city of Konstantinovka (Kostiantynivka) was hit by a missile <a href=\"https:\/\/apnews.com\/article\/russia-ukraine-war-blinken-counteroffensive-92b9ff2b9328f40516a4e47864d446e9\">killing<\/a> 17 people. The city is located in territory under the control of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).<\/p>\n<p>That atrocity was similarly condemned as \u201cRussian terrorism\u201d by Ukrainian President Zelensky while he was hosting Blinken in the capital.<\/p>\n<p>Like the attack on Hroza last week, the one on Konstantinovka was immediately blamed on Russia and reported widely as such by Western media.<\/p>\n<p>It turned out, however, that the missile that hit Konstantinovka was not fired by Russian forces. A follow-up <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2023\/09\/18\/world\/europe\/ukraine-missile-kostiantynivka-market.html\">report<\/a> by the New York Times on September 18 found that the warhead had been fired from AFU positions. The NY Times described it as an \u201cerrant missile\u201d that slammed into a busy marketplace by mistake. Nevertheless, despite the evidence, the Kiev regime continues to blame Russia for the crime.<\/p>\n<p>There is good reason to conclude that the missile atrocity on September 6 was not \u201can error\u201d but rather was deliberately staged by the Kiev regime as a false-flag provocation to highlight the visit by the senior American diplomat, Antony Blinken, and the need for his weapons gifting.<\/p>\n<p>For those who don\u2019t rely on the Western media for their information, it is well-documented that the NeoNazi Kiev regime has a foul habit of staging massacres for propaganda. The Bucha massacre last March was one such macabre event. This was when several civilians were found executed, their bodies strewn on streets, supposedly after Russian forces retreated from the city. All Western media blamed the apparent executions on Russia and continue to do so. But the freshness of the corpses found days after Russian troops pulled out of Bucha proves that the killings were done by others, probably Kiev agents.<\/p>\n<p>Another probable false flag was the missile strike on a railway station in the city of Kramatorsk on April 8, 2022, that killed 63 people. Again, Russia was roundly blamed and condemned by Western media and politicians taking their cue from Ukrainian official sources. In that incident, the missile was later identified as a Tochka-U not in regular use by Russian forces, but more likely used by the AFU.<\/p>\n<p>The Kramatorsk atrocity came on the day that European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was visiting Kiev, condemning it as \u201cdespicable\u201d and vowing tens of billions more Euros in support for the Kiev regime.<\/p>\n<p>The Ukraine war has become an obscene racket for profiteering by the U.S. and European military industries, their lobbyists and most of the Western politicians they have close sponsorship links to, like Blinken and Von der Leyen. It is also a money-spinner for the corrupt Kiev regime whose President Zelensky and other cronies have made up to $400 million in skimming off aid, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurasiantimes.com\/ukraine-war-zelensky-embezzled-400-million-allocated-by-the-us-for-purchasing-fuel-seymour-hersh\/\">reported<\/a> by Seymour Hersh citing Pentagon sources. This rampant corruption was why the Kiev regime <a href=\"https:\/\/thehill.com\/policy\/international\/4210826-ukraine-sacks-all-deputy-defense-ministers-as-new-chief-takes-helm\/\">sacked<\/a> most of its defence officials last month in a desperate attempt to appear as if it were cleaning up the graft.<\/p>\n<p>Western public fatigue and disgust with the war racket are growing and imperilling the continuation of the colossal scam. False-flag atrocities are a logical, heinous way to keep the racket on track.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/strategic-culture.su\/news\/2023\/10\/08\/heinous-choreography-of-village-massacre-as-zelensky-begs-for-more-weapons-at-eu-summit\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s one way to counter growing cynicism and scepticism among Westerners over the war in Ukraine and that\u2019s with \u2018false flag\u2019 attacks.
