Former president of Georgia downgraded to governor of Odessa oblast

The so-called president of Ukraine, Peotr Poroshenko, has appointed Georgian war criminal and former president Mikhail Saakashvili chairman of the Odessa regional administration. According to Poroshenko, Saakashvili can change the entire country. Oh, really?

Readers of The Ukrainian Times know that the General Prosecutor’s Office of the Republic of Georgia brought accusations of engineering of attacks on political opponents in 2005 against Saakashvili. Previously, a prosecutor-general initiated proceedings against Saakashvili or Misha the Tie-Chewer, as the joke has it, charging him with exceeding of his authority, the brutal suppression of anti-government protests in Tbilisi in November 2007 and seizure of the TV channel Imedi. The Tbilisi city court passed a decision about a Saakashvili’s arrest in his absence.

Not surprisingly, the meddlesome United States and European Union expressed concern that the accusations against their bootlick might be politically motivated. Huh?

In this context it is important to note that the decadent U.S. has locked up more people than any other country: a half million more than China,
which has a population five times greater than the American evil empire. Statistics reveal that the U.S. holds 25% of the world’s prison population. According to former senator Jim Webb, the U.S. has the incarceration rate that is five times as high as the average incarceration rate of the rest of the world. The U.S. Progressive Labor Party accuses the American prison industry of being the imitation of Nazi Germany with respect to forced slave labor and concentration camps.

And last but not least, it is worth recalling that in August 2008 Saakashvili resorted to overt armed aggression against South Ossetia that neighbors on Abkhazia. Happily, Russia defeated Georgia competently and brilliantly, notwithstanding the Saakashvili regime had U.S. support, aid and 130 military advisers, among others, and was widely seen as being under American protection. As many analysts rightly pointed out, the Kremlin taught the American evil empire and the pro-fascist regime of Saakashvili a good lesson and kicked out Georgian invaders.

In fact, challenging the new Russia can have grave consequences. Today South Ossetia and Abkhazia are independent republics, thanks to Russia.
