Alexei Navalny he’s back in the news! Did you all forget his past appearances?
We will trip down memory lane in short order. First this, Navalny is a man of many labels. At least in western mainstream media. But the best use of brands & labels is to both identify and sell a product! Navalny is a product. Being sold to the western mainstream audiences- Europe, Canada, US etc.
In Russia, it’s a different reality. Navalny is not really the ‘top opposition leader’. I am doubtful he is even a contender. Nor is he an “anti-corruption” blogger, that’s just his role. In the war mongering media here, he is mentioned as an activist- that is about the only somewhat truthful piece of info I have read. But exactly what type of activist is he? The western war mongering, destabilization pushing, media wants you to believe Alexei Navalny is someone important in some imaginary opposition… But given Putin’s something like 80 percent approval rating, what opposition is Navalny the leader of ? And how important is he, really?
My contention is that Navalny is important to the Western/NATO destabilization agenda. He is an activist of the type we have seen previously, playing a role, in yet another colour revolution/spring type operation. Navalny is the face/mascot used to appeal to the masses in most NATO nations.
Which is why this Russian activist’s journal is available in English via social media
Because Russian activists who are allegedly working for change in Russia need an Anglo readership? Right?
To the masses of ordinary Russian’s his importance, it would seem, is pretty much non existent
Yesterday, I left this comment at the Vineyard of the Saker and it does relate to the comeback of Alexei Navalny and the destabilization of Russia
“What is more probable is a destabilization campaign launched from Ukraine- along with some internal destabilization (aka colour revolution) along with economic warfare being waged present day’
Internal destabilization aka colour revolution. That explains why Alexei Navalny is being pushed into our consciousness, yet again
Links back to the 2013 post which was reposted earlier today;
Commenter brian left some info linking Alexei Navalny to the “Scoop” Henry Jackson society

Navalny in #Russia is an Internet-based “attack dog” used to spread insinuations and libel against certain business and political targets.

In 2013 #Navalny accused #Russian Railways’ CEO of “corruption” (character assassination) in the middle of RZHD’s fight with certain biz ppl

#Russian Railways refused to sell 1 of its assets to these biz ppl and #Navalny’s attack via his blog against RZHD’s head was well timed.
Terre @terbleu 3h3 hours ago#Navalny has been spotted at such neo-con gatherings as the Henry Jackson Society in London. #
Thanks brian! – Yup, the connections are definitely there!
Henry Jackson Society/Navalny– Here and Here. Or this Reuters article that makes very clear the cooperative relationship between the man and the influential Henry Jackson Society
“The allegations were contained in a report co-published by Alexei Navalny’s Foundation for Fighting Corruption and the Henry Jackson Society, a British-based think-tank”
Where there is a destabilization plot, there is the Henry Jackson Society!
And others, of course. Yet another group that figures into a planned destabilization is the Heritage Foundation!
Flashback to 2012- Predicting the Future: The destabilization of Russia
The scenario mentioned is the rise of an Islamist Insurgency- and Russia’s inability to react requiring, of course, western intervention. Does that scenario sound familiar at all?
It should!
Keeping in mind, of course, the goal of balkanization.
As laid out by the Heritage Foundation and one Ariel Cohen Ph.D
I am only including excerpts here, it’s a big article, linked so you can read it at your leisure
A Threat to the West: The Rise of Islamist Insurgency in the Northern Caucasus and Russia’s Inadequate Response
A threat to the West? Of course!
The rise of “Islamist Insurgency”? Of course!
Russia’s Inadequate Response? Of course!
Well you just know someone is going to have to step up to that plate!”
The advantages to having blogged on geopolitical topics for a long time is the ability to access memory holed information 🙂
