Her rap sheet reads like convicted Nazis hanged for high crimes against peace. <br><br> A fascist neocon by any standard, she's a former Dick Cheney aide. She was Obama point person in charge of Washington's February 2014 coup in Ukraine.  <br><br> Fascism reemerged in Europe's heartland for the first time since WW II. Nazis replaced democrats. Naked aggression followed against Donbass Ukrainians wanting to live free from its scourge. <br><br> Governance Washington installed in Ukraine is a blight on humanity. Fascists in charge may spark direct confrontation with Russia. <br><br> European leaders able to act responsibly support what demands rejection. Ukraine is a fascist dictatorship. Its leaders are Nazi lunatics. <br><br> They terrorize their own people. They risk setting the entire continent ablaze.  <br><br> Russia acts heroically to prevent the worst possible outcome. Its reward is wrongful blame for US\/Kiev crimes. <br><br> On March 4, Nuland addressed House Foreign Affairs Committee members. They shamed themselves for inviting her. <br><br> They should have ordered her apprehended the moment she showed up. She's guilty of high crimes too egregious to ignore. <br><br> Her statement was polar opposite truth. It was a beginning-to-end litany of Big Lies no committee member challenged. <br><br> She called murdered US-funded, self-serving opportunist Boris Nemtsov a \"freedom fighter, Russian patriot and friend.\" <br><br> She ignored the almost certain CIA false flag responsible for killing him. She absurdly called Ukraine \"central to our 25 year Transatlantic quest for a 'Europe whole, free and at peace.' \" <br><br> Fact: Washington wants Ukraine used as a dagger against Russia's heartland - with menacing US bases on its borders threatening is sovereign independence. <br><br> Nuland called US planned and implements year ago Maidan violence using well-trained Nazi thugs \"peaceful protest(s) by ordinary Ukrainians.\" <br><br> \"They braved frigid temperatures, brutal beatings and sniper bullets&hellip;Ukraine began to forge a new nation&hellip;holding free and fair election&hellip;and undertaking deep and comprehensive economic and political reforms.\" <br><br> Fact: US-deposed President Viktor Yanukovych's police showed remarkable restraint. <br><br> Fact: Washington-supported Nazi thugs bore full responsibility for beatings, sniper killings and other violence. <br><br> Fact: Ukrainian parliamentary and presidential elections were farcical - with no legitimacy whatever. <br><br> Fact: So-called economic reforms involve crushing hardships on already impoverished Ukrainians in return for loan-shark-of-last-resort IMF blood money. <br><br> Fact: No responsible political reforms exist. None are planned. It bears repeating. Ukraine is a US-installed fascist dictatorship. <br><br> Nuland lied claiming \"enhance(d) (Ukrainian) transparency in public procurement, reduce(d) government inefficiency and corruption, (laws) making the banking system more transparent, and measures to improve the climate for business and&hellip;foreign investment.\" <br><br> Ukrainian banking is a black hole of grand theft. State farmland and enterprises are being sold to Western predators at fire sale prices. <br><br> Corruption is worse than ever. Government and military officials are stealing everything they can get their dirty hands on - at the expense of imposing crushing austerity on deeply impoverished millions. <br><br> Hyperinflation grips the country. The \"breadbasket\" of Europe can't feed its people. Rationing was imposed. <br><br> Energy prices skyrocketed to unaffordable levels. Ukraine symbolizes humanitarian disastrous conditions wherever America shows up. <br><br> Nuland recited a litany of Big Lies about the \"new Ukraine,\" - a Nazified menace to its people, Europe and humanity. <br><br> Claiming it's \"building a peaceful, democratic, independent\" nation is polar opposite truth. <br><br> She aimed the worst of her rant at Russia and Donbass freedom fighters.  <br><br> She lied about Crimea \"under illegal occupation\" - ignoring near Crimean unanimity to reverse a historic mistake and rejoin Russia. <br><br> She turned truth on its head claiming \"(i)n eastern Ukraine, Russia and its separatist puppets unleashed unspeakable violence and pillage.\" <br><br> \"MH17 was shot down. Hundreds of Russian heavy weapons and troops poured across the border, fueling the conflict.\" <br><br> \"Sixteen Russian uninspected 'humanitarian convoys' entered Ukraine in violation of agreements with the Ukrainian government, the ICRC and the international community.\"  <br><br> \"Donetsk airport was obliterated&hellip;Debaltseve, a key rail hub beyond the ceasefire lines, fell to separatist and Russian forces six days after Minsk was signed&hellip;\" <br><br> \"This is a manufactured conflict controlled by the Kremlin, fueled by Russian tanks and heavy weapons; financed at Russian taxpayers&rsquo; expense and costing the lives of young Russians&hellip;\" <br><br> Fact: Kiev collaboratively with Washington launched naked aggression against Donbass residents wanting democratic rights everyone deserves - wanting to live free from the scourge of fascism. <br><br> Fact: No Russian hoards \"poured across (Ukraine's) border.\" Kiev's own military chief said so.  <br><br> No evidence whatever shows Russian involvement. None exists except photos exposed as fakes. <br><br> Fact: Washington and Kiev bear full responsibility for unleashing unspeakable violence against Donbass residents. <br><br> Fact: One or more Ukrainian warplanes downed MH17- a US\/Kiev false flag. Russia and rebels had nothing to do with it. <br><br> Fact: Russia is the only nation delivering vitally needed humanitarian aid - inspected by ICRC representatives. <br><br> Fact: Minsk ceasefire terms included nothing about Debastseve. <br><br> Fact: Washington and Kiev \"manufactured\" Donbass' conflict - not Moscow or rebels. <br><br> Not a single House Foreign Affairs Committee member challenged Nuland's obvious and outrageous Big Lies. <br><br> They accepted them as gospel. They let an unindicted war criminal insult them. <br><br> Russia and rebels are consistently and wrongfully blamed for US\/Kiev crimes. <br><br> Obama wants war, not peace. He wants unchallenged control over America's newest colony. He wants it pillaged for profit. <br><br> He wants it as a stepping-stone toward long sought regime change in Russia - replacing its sovereign independence with pro-Western puppet governance. <br><br> His maniacal agenda risks possible nuclear war. Nuland is one of many neocon fascists infesting Washington.  <br><br> Their notion of peace and prosperity includes endless wars of aggression, mass slaughter and destruction, stealing world resources, enslaving its people, and creating unspeakable human misery.  <br><br> They quest for world dominance may kill us all! <br><br> Stephen Lendman lives in Chicago.
