In an exclusive, in-depth interview with Sputnik, Sergei Sanovsky, a former training instructor for one of Ukraine's most notorious far-right volunteer militias, shared his story about how he went from being hailed a "hero of Maidan" to getting kidnapped and tortured by Ukraine's Security Service for refusing to run an extrajudicial death squad.


'A Simple Hero of the Maidan'

Sergei Sanovsky comes from a long line of career military men. Before 2014, he served in a Spetsnaz detachment of Ukraine's Internal Troops, commanding a reconnaissance group and working as a sniper instructor before leaving military service.

Sergei participated in the Maidan street protests, which rocked Ukraine in late 2013 and early 2014 and culminated in the overthrow of President Viktor Yanukovych. Yanukovych was ousted after he reversed course on the signing of an association agreement with the European Union.

"This was like a breath of fresh air," Sanovsky recalled, speaking to Sputnik from Myanmar, the country he fled to after leaving his home country in 2017. "It seemed then that we could really change the country for the better."

During the protests, Sergei and his friend tried to hide a group of protesters from the Berkut riot police. He was caught and received a vicious beating, with the police breaking his jaw and knocking out most of his teeth. He was unconscious for two days and required several surgeries. In the pro-Maidan Ukrainian press, he was sympathetically hailed as "A simple hero of the Maidan."

Comment: And these psychopathic torturers and killers are the people that the US and the EU support just to spite Russia. Did you catch that Poroshenko himself approves the work of the death squads? See also:

Russian pop star Emin trolls Trump-Russia collusion allegations in music video - US media outlets easily fall for it

Russian pop star Emin ridiculed Russiagaters in a new clip, featuring lookalikes of Trump and others partying hard with Miss Universe contestants and taking shots together. Some in US media took the fun video too seriously.

Russian pop star Emin Agalarov, also known as Emin - his name surfaced in US headlines last year when it emerged he helped arrange a meeting between Trump's eldest son and a Russian lawyer at Trump Tower in 2016 - relentlessly trolled Trump-Russia collusion allegations in his new satire clip called 'Got Me Good'.

The three-minute music video opens up with a man who appears to be Kim Jong-un in front of several CCTV screens. Scoffing popcorn, he watches Emin encounter a woman in a lift who appears to be Stormy Daniels - the woman who claimed she had an affair with Donald Trump. The pair exchange a small stack of what appears to be money.

In the latest confrontation between Trump-hating liberals and a conservative woman, Transportation Secretary Elaine Chao, the wife of Mitch McConnell (R-KY), unleashed on a group of protesters who ambushed the couple as they left a Monday dinner at Georgetown University with business executives from Cambria Health Solutions.

As the group of angry Georgetown students loudly approached with signboards and backpacks, Chao shouted back "Why don't you leave my husband alone?" while pointing at them.

"How does he sleep at night" shot back one of the protesters.

Comment: The deluded SJWs think they are 'fighting for a better world' but are really only being exploited by a ruthless oligarch.

Taxpayers on the hook again: Pennsylvania cop smashes man's head into the floor until he's unconscious, victim files lawsuit

New Castle PA cop brutality
The video, which was posted to Facebook, shows New Castle Police officer Ronald Williams unnecessarily and repeatedly slamming Perry Lawry’s head into the floor until the man is left unconscious in a pool of his own blood.
A Pennsylvania police officer was fired last month after a gruesome video surfaced showing him repeatedly smash a man's head into the floor until he fell unconscious. Now, all charges against the victim, whose head was the target of the cop's rage, have been dropped as well-exposing the entirely unnecessary use of force and subsequent arrest.

On Wednesday, the New Castle police department announced that all charges have been dropped against the man in the video.

DHS asks Pentagon to help house 12,000 illegal immigrants at its military bases along Mexican border

The Pentagon has been requested to house and take care of some 12,000 illegal immigrants at its military bases along the Mexican border, to help the White House impose its "zero-tolerance" policy.

"The Department of Defense has received a request for assistance from the Department of Homeland Security to house and care for an alien family population of up to 12,000 people. DHS requests that DoD identify any available facilities that could be used for that purpose," the Pentagon said in a statement.

The request is quite urgent as the first 2,000 beds will have to be provided within 45 days. If the Pentagon does not find any available space, it is being asked to identify three potential construction sites and to erect "semi-separate, soft-sided camp facilities" that could house as many as 4,000 people each. Four US states which border Mexico - Texas, Arizona, New Mexico, or California - are considered ideal locations.

Oklahoma votes to legalize medical cannabis

On Tuesday, voters at the polls in Oklahoma approved a ballot measure to legalize medical cannabis, according to a CNBCreport. After nearly a two-year-old signature drive, cannabis activists were finally successful in bringing State Question 788 to the Oklahoma ballot earlier this year.

Oklahoma's medical marijuana rules are some of the most progressive medical cannabis rules adopted to date and will allow an individual to possess up to 8 ounces of cannabis, six mature plants, and six seedlings. The law would also permit cannabis edibles and concentrates. Patients must receive permission from an Oklahoma Medical Board certified physician - there is not currently a list of qualifying conditions that must be satisfied, patients only need a doctor's recommendation.

Comment: The country which contrived the demonization of cannabis is now one of those at the forefront of its decriminalization, but there's still a long way to go into reversing the damage done by decades propaganda: Also check out SOTT radio's:The Health & Wellness Show: The Highs and Lows of Cannabis as Medicine

Seymour Hersh questions UK gov't narrative behind Skripal poisoning

Pulitzer Prize-winning reporter Seymour Hersch has questioned the UK government's official line on the motives behind the Skripals' poisoning, saying there is an "instinctive dislike" of Russia within the UK.

Speaking to BBC Radio 4's The Media Show, Hersch was responding to a question about whether journalists often bring their own "baggage or views" to stories before they've found out about what's going on, and if this shaped how stories were reported.

He said there is "bias all the time" in the media, and that the UK is "riddled with bias" fueled by an "instinctive dislike" of Russia.

"There's bias all the time, this country's riddled with bias, there's a great dislike of Russia here, an instinctive dislike," he said.

Gender madness finally alienates Democratic insider

no genders gender neutral
I had to pick my jaw up off the ground when I saw this comment from a reader I know personally, and who is a political professional working with the Democratic Party. He almost always comments here to read me the riot act about my social and religious conservatism. But not this morning, not after reading the "Rosemary's Theyby" post about the next frontiers in gender madness. He writes:
The rot is even worse than you think. You have no idea how highly this has infected the low and middle levels of the Democratic Party. The mistake people make is on focusing on what the high elites in parties think, rather than what you could call the middle management. Elites are close to retirement, really, and while they do exert pull on the rest of the people, they can't pull too much.

Middle management, however, controls _everything_.

Not long ago, when my wife was pregnant, a coworker asked if we knew what we were having. I told this friend, and we were all excited.

Another coworker immediately started lecturing me in front of everyone about how this was grossly cis-heteronormative and that rather than forcing an identity on my child because of genitals, I should cultivate an environment in which the child would be able to flourish and explore the play of gender.

Tide turning: Presbyterian Church representing 1.5 million Americans unanimously votes to support BDS campaign

BDS protests NYC June 2016

The Presbyterian Church (USA), which represents 1.5 million Americans, has voted overwhelmingly in support of the international Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions Campaign (BDS).

Members took part in a vote last Friday on a slate of resolutions put forth by one of its member groups, the Israel Palestine Mission Network (IPMN).

The church opposed congressional and state anti-BDS legislation calling on Americans to "defend and advocate for the constitutional protection under the First Amendment for all United States citizens". It opposed "specific US legislation and efforts by agents of foreign governments to suppress" those freedoms. It insisted that the "The Israel Anti-Boycott Act", Senate Bill (S) 720 and House Resolution (H.R.) 1697, which seek to impose civil and criminal penalties for nonviolent BDS resistance against human rights violations in Israel and Palestine, was against the US constitution and a threat to free speech.

The resolutions won by a landslide following powerful testimonies from local and visiting Palestinians, Black Lives Matter leaders, Presbyterians and others. Most of the resolutions passed by 80 or 90 per cent or unanimously in committee and through the General Assembly, US Campaign for Palestinian Rights (USCPR) reported.

Comment: It appears Israels brutality towards Palestinians in Gaza has backfired spectacularly:

NATO stooges Bellingcat & Atlantic Council join to 'honor' exploited Syrian child Bana al-Abed & American mass murderer Albright

Just when we thought the over-used Bana al-Abed story was in the war propaganda dustbin, the wonder-child theme has again been re-hashed, this time by the Atlantic Council.

The so-called "think tank" recently highlighted the nine-year old at a conference that also included former US secretary of state Madeleine Albright.

Bana, the child presented to the world in late 2016 as tweeting from eastern Aleppo about wanting peace, Russia being bad, Assad being bad, etcetera, became colonial media's darling, the perfect cover for war propaganda. We are told that Bana al-Abed has written a memoir. She has attended galas, met the Turkish president, and hobnobbed with movie stars and UN officials. Now, the girl has been trotted out on stage to receive an award from the Atlantic Council.
