Kondopoga

Here’s a very good example how liberastian media is covering the “racist” conflict in Kondopoga. Clair Bigg from Radio Free Europe\Radio Liberty reports;

The incident was the latest in a string of attacks against ethnic Chechens and other ethnic minorities in Kondopoga that has prompted dozens of Chechen families to flee the city.
The violence was sparked by restaurant brawl between ethnic Russians and Chechens last week that left two of the Russians dead. The restaurant, "Chaika," was owned by a Chechen man.

That’s all. There’s was a brawl that left two of the Russians dead. Nothing is said about the cause of their death. Could they have a heart attack? Quite possible. Here’s the actual chain of events. Two Russians at the restaurant “Chaika” had a brawl with the waiter who supposedly brought them cheap vodka in a bottle from expensive one. Russians refused to pay for it. The barman called the local Chechen “rescue team”. It arrived an hour later when Russians who actually started the brawl already left. About 15 Chechens armed with knives, sharpened steel bars and baseball bats rushed into the restaurant, cried, “Allahu Akbar!” and started thrashing indiscriminately everyone who was unlucky to be at the restaurant by that time. People were defending themselves with chairs and tables. In less than 5 minutes the Chechen “rescue team” killed two men and mutilated 15, eight of them were beaten within an inch of their life. Having done that Chechens left the restaurant. During the “brawl” two local police cars were staying right at the restaurant and later a third one came. Policemen didn’t interfere. Later it became known that they actually were on the rescue team’s payroll and in fact were giving protection to the bandits.

Angry mobs burned down the restaurant where the Russians were killed and destroyed a street market and several stores owned by Chechens and other people from the Caucasus.

One gets an impression that immediately after the “brawl” angry mobs started mad rampaging. In a small town like Kondopoga where people now each other the news about the “brawl” spread very quickly. People gathered after the funeral (the deceased faces were mutilated beyond recognition) on a square at the City Council bringing the following demands: (1) Bring to justice corrupt police officers, (2) Bring to justice the Chechen “rescue team” that has been terrorizing the town residents for several years already. (3) Bring to justice the owner of the restaurant (and several other businesses) that uses the Chechen “rescue team” as his personal army. Please take a note – in the first place the angered was directed at the local police that was supposed to protect residents. When the very same policemen who a day before did nothing to stop Chechens started to “disperse the unsanctioned meeting” they were attacked and on the spur of the moment about 20-30 teenagers tried to put the Chechen restaurant on fire (they did put it on fire a day later) and broke windows of the several stores. The mayor realized that things are getting out of control called Petrozavodsk riot police.

The violence has been accompanied by street rallies in Kondopoga demanding the expulsion of immigrants.
Several nationalist parties have expressed support for the riots. Some reports claim these parties actually orchestrated them.

On the next day residents of Kondopoga gathered again. This time there were about 2000 of them (6% of the total population that would equivalent to 500 000 in Moscow). Representatives of the nationalist parties together with journalists flocked to the town like carrion-crows. In the true liberastian manner journalists started interviewing nationalists from Moscow and St.Petersburg forgetting the residents of Kondopoga altogether. And – yes – nationalists claimed that they orchestrated the riots, that residents are demanding expulsion of all immigrants – all the usual PR blah blah.

"People gathered spontaneously to express their demands," Belov said. "Their demands were simple: [foreigners] get out of here, you have 24 hours. Why? You've come here without invitation and we're fed up with you. These are the two reasons behind the problems in Kondopoga and elsewhere."
Belov said representatives of his movement, know for its aggressive xenophobic rhetoric, had plans to station representatives permanently in Karelia to "help," in his words, local residents.
Ramzan Kadyrov, the prime minister of the pro-Moscow government in Chechnya, has blamed Karelian officials for failing to stop the riots and has vowed to restore order if necessary.

Yes, indeed. Kadyrov’s guys know how to restore order. No wonder the Kondopoga’s Chechens are Kadyrov's strong supporters.

Interfax
Sep 7 2006 3:32PM
Initiator of Chaika Restaurant brawl seized in Kondopoga
KONDOPOGA. Sept 7 (Interfax) - A participant in the infamous brawl at the Chaika Restaurant, which triggered riots in Kondopoga, has been taken into custody.

A certain Mozgalyov started a brawl with the restaurant bartender, which claimed two lives and injured six people, a source at the Karelian prosecutor's office told Interfax on Thursday.

Charges will be brought soon, the source said.

Mozgalyov, 33, is a Kondopoga resident with a criminal record. He was convicted in 1999 for killing a local crime lord in Petrozavodsk in the fall of 1998.

All is quiet in Kondopoga, which held memorial services for the dead earlier in the day. Two hundred patrolmen are providing law and order. The police are also protecting childcare centers and schools.

Ah those poor Chechens and those evil Russians. If all those Chechens would be brought to, say, Holland, it would all be allright :)

"liberastian"?

when i put this word in to the merriam webster dictionary online (www.m-w.com) it says there is no such word, and when i put it into google there is only one hit, for this post.

making up words along with facts now are we?

if so, what word will we make up for to describe someone who makes up facts and tells only one side of any given story and then criticizes others for doing that?

"konstantidiot"?

The irony of it. She's "recording the rise (and hopefully fall) of the Neo-Soviet Union", and she's never heard the word liberast.

La Russophobe said...

COEN: Item? What item? Was it in the comment that Konstantin deleted/censored? If so you can post it on my blog if you like.

NIKOLAY: I'd say the irony is that you, while claiming a word exists, point to not one single instance of its use outside this blog.

By Jove, LR,

just activate your ONE brain cell all right,
type LIBERAST in yandex.ru, in Cyrillics, perhaps with www.translit.ru

http://www.yandex.ru/yandsearch?nl=0&stype=www&text=%EB%E8%E1%E5%F0%E0%F1%F2

and open your eyes.

You do not want to be a shame for women, do you?

Oh yes, and look up at comment #4 for our the allegedly deleted/censured post of our friend Coen....

You might however have to use your mouse or some arrow keys on your keyboard.

Duh!

Sorry, all of my links share a ".ru" extension. Scary!

So, let me see if I understand. The next time I'm speaking Russian to a Russian, I can just throw in English words whenever I feel like it, and if my Russian listener doesn't know them then that mean's he doesn't have a single brain cell, right? And I can tell him so, right? OK, I'll try that. Thanks for the tip.

Meanwhile, even your standard ape knows that when you use a foreign word in your text you italicize it and explain to the reader why you can't use an English word (hyperlinks make this especially easy). Unfortunately, Konstantin doesn't care to rise to that level because he's not the least bit interested in facts. He only aspires to be pond scum.

In point of fact, in this instance there is absolutely no reason to use a foreign word since English, with the greatest variety of vocabulary in any language, has plenty of viable alternatives.

Anonymous said...

Well, LR, next time you're "speaking Russian," perhaps you can give an explanation of how you came to think that "в раковине гайки" means "in a nutshell."

La Russophobe said...

Yup, just what I thought. When your first round of comments is proven utterly inane and baseless, instead of admitting error you simply move on to another round of even more ridiculous statements. Classic russophile gibberish.

Let's see now, I wrote something in Russian and then immediately translated it for the reader, and you feel that means I'm making the same error that Konstantin did by writing something in Russian and NOT translating or explaining it, right? Uh, ok. But, um, I'd suggest you go easy on that PCP for a while.

But wait! Perhaps you are ridiculing me for what you believe to be an inaccurate translation? If so, that would be even more blindingly stupid than the first possibility, since (a) you know full well I'm LA RUSSOPHOBE and wouldn't hesitate for a second to satirize Russian and (b) does it really make sense to DISCOURAGE the speaking of Russian, a language that is about to disappear from the face of the earth as the Russian population goes the way of the dodo, by ridiculing those who try it? Even LA RUSSOPHOBE doesn't go that far. But then, maybe you are a bigger Russophobe than she is?

You really ought to figure out how far in over your head you are when you seek to joust with me and just give it up. I (almost) pity you.

Anonymous said...

Oh, please. You clearly don't speak Russian, as is plainly obvious from your defence, boiling down to "I was satirizing Russian" _and_ "please don't be mean about the fact that I don't speak the lingo and lied."

The problem is that you can never be the Pushkin, Dostoevsky or Solzhenitsyn to whom you like to compare yourself, without speaking Russian. Your self-assessment as the reincarnation of Martin Luther King is, however, still safe.

La Russophobe said...

Ah, so it's clear now. You believe I DON'T SPEAK RUSSIAN, so you were ridculing the attempt of a non-Russian speaker to dabble in the language. Apparently, you hoped to humiliate the non-Russian speaker, thereby encouraging the speaker to give up the attempt to try to communicate in Russian. Thanks for confirming the wonderfully friendly, accomodating attitude of the Russophile! No wonder Russia is such a total failure, with "friends" like you she doesnt need any enemies.

I never compared myself to any of those people other than to say that they suffered exactly the same type of criticism I do, something you don't even try to deny.

It's well and good for you to pompously, arrogantly declare that I am not their equal, but it remains a fact that in his entire lifetime Vincent Van Gogh only sold ONE of his paintings. In other words, the whole world failed to acknowledge his genius. You think you know all, yet you criticize me for arrogance. Nice.

I'm out there in the blogosphere fighting against dictatorship in Russia and you . . . don't even have a name.

Russian Lesson #1

Try to translate and to pronounce:

Промудоблядская пиздопроёбина, охуевающая от злобоебучести.

Anonymous said...

Let me explain what really happened, as my wife knows the owners of the restaurant.
A group of drunken Russians, many of them Chechen war veterans, entered the restaurant, where a separate group of customers were having a memorial dinner.
The new arrivals asked the young Chechen bartender to put on some loud music. He refused, in respect to the other customers.
The newcomers then became abusive and threatening, at which point they were asked to leave. The bartender was then attacked, and the "security" were called.
I'm not going to pretend that the actions of the Chechens thereafter were entirely in keeping with etiquette and decorum, but the provocation came from the other side, and that is the truth.
And when the police are little better than the criminals it's hardly surprising people take the law into their own hands.

There is also a Russian-English transliteration site for non speakers: translit.us and also Ukrainian and Belarusian versions.

La Russophobe, in order to understand russians, it isn't enough to speak the language.

On the case, it was a simple bar brawl, ok, leave it. But nooooo, the chechens, in true chechen fashion, had to call in a bunch of cutthroat bandits to show the inhabitants that if u harm a chechen or his interests u will die, or be mutilated in the name of islam, money, or ur local gang leader (most of whom in russia r 'coincidentally' from the caucasus). Now the police r either on the payroll, or r too pussy to do their jobs. So, as a small rural town resident what do u do? I mean if u dont react, what will happen next, u have to give up ur virgins to those martyr wannabe, rebel jerk-off, macho bastards?? what if someone comes to YOUR town and does something like that, what if they bring a decade long brutal war right to your doorstep, mutilate your friends, family, or even worse your children, will u still be as 'politically correct' as u like to think u r now? Karelians r not violent people, it's scandinavia for crying out loud, u have to work just in order to survive. They have enough hardship without the chechens coming and forcing their own laws on them, and dont pretend that that's not what they do, cause then u're either naive, or with an agenda.

Call me racist, call me a russophile....in fact i AM a russophile and especially a Kareliaphile, and i just cant sit and read how u claim what happened was a zachistka, because u have absolutely no idea. It's easy sitting there on ur comfy chair, in ur safe apartment to look down others. U want some sources, some eyewitness reports? go on youtube and get a russian to translate u this and the other related videos

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SXdy39Ah6W8


And p.s. lay off insulting others on their somewhat introvert use of english, and trying to undermine their credibility based on an absolutely irrelevant honest mistake. The guy was just trying to describe the state of todays sensationalist, sometimes dishonest media, and u go and claim that he is a liar......weak.

Maybe the Chechen should talk to the Palestinian about occupation by proxies of the UN Security Council. In the meantime, thehiawathatriad.org, triadexp.info, and triadblog.info/blog might make good light reading.
