SOTT Exclusive: How Western-backed death squads are celebrating Christmas

Not surprisingly, a recent poll revealed that more and more people in Ukraine are unhappy with their quality of life. The government is preparing more austerity measures, dictated to it by the IMF, while Prime Minister Arseny Yatseniuk is warning citizens of more power cuts if the mild weather fades. NATO is also waiting for its share of the spoils; new Secretary-General Jens Stoltenberg has announced that Ukraine must conduct certain reforms before applying for a candidacy, including - among other things - that Kiev spend at least 2% of its GDP on military equipment from NATO-approved suppliers. For a debt-country on the verge of bankruptcy and in the midst of a major rebellion, this can only mean one thing: more misery and violence.
Meanwhile, it's business as usual for the neo-Nazi brownshirts patrolling the streets and menacing civil society. The 'Right Sector' group is made up of ultra-right wing nationalist and former military personnel who have acted as mercenaries and henchmen for the Ukrainian oligarchs aligned with the U.S. and EU. On Christmas Eve they decided to take to the streets in the northeastern city of Kharkov, waving flags of the 'Right Sektor' group and beating up several citizens.

They also tossed an 'old regime' official, Vladimir Skorobagach into a dumpster, poured green paint on his face and pelted him with eggs. This seems to be turning into a habit for the fascist mobs, as the same happened to Ukrainian MP Vitaly Zhuravsky a few months ago.
The protesters seized Skorobagach near the city council entrance and tried to make him publicly insult President Vladimir Putin. The official first managed to escape and take shelter in a pharmacy.
However, the crowd found him and offered Skorobagach the chance to "get into the trash himself." When he didn't, several masked men took him by force and put into the dumpster, pouring green paint on his face. The crowd chanted "Lustration!"
Police eventually came to the official's rescue. Skorobagach was taken to hospital, as he said someone sprayed him with unknown liquid in eyes and he could not see.

Full of 'Christmas spirit', the fascist mobs also decided to block the delivery of humanitarian aid from reaching war-torn parts of the country.
The battalions say the food, clothing and medicine meant for the needy in eastern Ukraine are aiding rebel forces. They are also demanding the release of prisoners held by the rebels as a condition for granting aid to the east.
As us Westerners enjoy the holiday season with loved ones, let's drop in on how ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine are spending their Christmas. The following photos show the people of Donetsk, who are forced to live in bomb shelters because their houses were destroyed by the Ukrainian army:

ISIS is another U.S.-sponsored group that isn't taking a break these holidays. It has become a Christmas ritual now for the Western Empire to spook everyone with 'imminent terror threats'...
The terrorist threat has been perceived as high by most of the Western countries in recent months as the Islamic State group called on supporters to carry out lone wolf attacks in countries that are participating in the US-led anti-IS coalition.
Wait, there's more.
Spontaneous lone wolf attacks are not the only thing law enforcement authorities fear this Christmas. As early as on December 1, the British Daily Express newspaper said, citing an unnamed security employee, that al-Qaeda terrorists had been plotting to blow up five European passenger planes on Christmas.
As a result of these warnings/claims from an "unnamed security employee", British security services have reassured Brits that they are preparing to stave off these Christmas 'lone wolf' terror attacks (unless, of course, they decide to assist the attacks by escorting passport-less and ticket-less patsies through airport security - I guess it depends on their mood which way it will go). Australian authorities are also following suit (yes, ISIS hates Aussies too, apparently for their chocolate and wallabies), fearing that the 'Sydney Siege' circus could produce a copycat 'attack on Christmas'.
Also on Christmas Eve, ISIS managed to capture a Jordanian pilot after shooting down his military jet over Syria. Since the U.S. and their allies are the ones supplying the Wahabi nutjobs group with weapons, they are directly responsible for the incident. You can see where this is going, can't you? Now that they have the ability to shoot down jet aircraft, how long before the terrorists shoot down civilian aircraft?
The final report I'd like to bring to your attention is about another fanatical terrorist group.
'Israeli police shoot 5-year-old in the face while exiting school bus'
Israeli forces on Wednesday afternoon shot a 5-year-old Palestinian child in the face with a rubber-coated steel bullet in East Jerusalem as he was getting out of a school bus on his way home, relatives said.
"An Israeli soldier fired a black rubber-coated bullet at the child from a close distance, injuring him under the eye," the uncle of 5-year-old Muhammad Jamal Ubeid told Ma'an.
The incident reportedly took place in the East Jerusalem village of al-Issawiya, where Muhammad's family lives.
The child's uncle said that Muhammad and his 14-year-old sister stepped out of a school bus and had started to walk home when the Israeli forces shot him.
The uncle said there were no confrontations at all in the area between Israeli forces and Palestinians at the time of the shooting.
Yes indeed, Christmas wouldn't be complete without Israelis brutalizing Palestinians in the supposed birth country of the very person whose 'christian' legacy Westerners have spent the last 2,000 years gathering with their families to remember, honor and celebrate.
Happy Christmas.
