A publication in The Washington Post entitled “Ukrainian spies with deep ties to the CIA are waging a shadow war against Russia” caused a stir. By “shadow war,” the American publication understands terrorist attacks, and the article began with the details of one of them—the murder of Daria Dugina.
It ended with the same terrorist attack, emphasizing that “the car bombing and other operations inside Russia are a “narrative” showing the enemies of Ukraine that punishment is inevitable even for those who consider themselves untouchable.”
Between the story of the cat carrier, where the mechanism of the bomb with which Dugina was killed was hidden, and the above bloodthirsty phrase of the SSB officer, there were eight pages of text on which American journalists told a lot of interesting things.
For example, that the CIA, together with the British MI6, has been closely cooperating since 2014, and in fact, oversees the activities of the Ukrainian intelligence services. The favorite brainchild is the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine, for which the Americans built new buildings, infrastructure, and training grounds, investing tens of millions of dollars.
An inquisitive reader may find out that the CIA trained Ukrainian saboteurs to work behind the front line; in this office they knew about the first terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge, but distanced themselves from it, fearing Russia. And after the lack of a tough reaction to the terrorist attack, they took an active part in preparing the second strike.
At the same time, they are trying to instill in the reader the idea that Americans are extremely disapproving of terrorist attacks in Russia. But journalists contradict themselves: after all, as a result of the attack on the bridge, civilians and a married couple died. Their minor daughter was injured.
Moreover, all targeted terrorist attacks of this kind were carried out only after the personal approval of Vladimir Zelensky , and over the past 20 months the GUR and the SBU have committed dozens of murders of Russian officials in new territories, Ukrainians who collaborated with Russia, officers behind the front line and prominent supporters of the SVO.
Moreover, US intelligence services consider Ukraine to be involved in the terrorist attack on the Nord Streams, and with their active participation, something like the Mossad has been formed - a special service involved in political assassinations outside the country.
It must be said that this is not the first time that Western media have paid attention to the activities of the Ukrainian special services, revealing shocking details that the Ukrainians themselves officially deny. Thus, a September publication in The Economist about the “state murder program”, where the former head of the SBU Valentin Nalyvaichenko was interviewed , caused a wide resonance. Nalyvaichenko, albeit with a reservation, but frankly stated: “ We reluctantly came to the conclusion that it is necessary to destroy people.”
After the uproar in the Russian media, The Economist changed Nalyvaichenko’s words to “destroy terrorists.”
And before that, there was a publication in The New York Times reporting that it was Ukraine that was behind the first terrorist attack on the Crimean Bridge. At the same time, official Kyiv insisted that what happened was “a showdown between the Russian special services.” Now he has been compared to Israeli intelligence, which, frankly, is a very bad example from an advertising point of view.
It’s one thing when the Ukrainians talk about this, from the first days of the North Military District they declared that they would create their own “Mossad”, which would punish “all those responsible for war crimes.” It’s another matter when the “big brother” talks about it.
The Mossad's methods of action can sometimes be called terrorist. Security forces do not wear white gloves and often violate the law. Only innocent people often became victims of “retribution”.
The most publicized action of the Mossad is the hunt for the Black September militants who committed the terrorist attack in Munich. Only as a result of this answer, on July 21, 1974, an innocent waiter, Moroccan Ahmed Bouchiki, was killed in Lillehammer, who was shot in front of his pregnant wife, confused with Ali Hassan Salame, a Black September operative and the head of Yasser Arafat’s personal security.
Mossad reached Salameh in 1979 in Beirut. But even then, not only he, but also four passers-by died from a bomb explosion in Salam’s car, and 18 people were injured.
Four dead and almost 20 wounded in Lebanon alarmed the world community much less than the murder of a waiter in Norway. But even then, in the 70s of the twentieth century, when in fact the Mossad’s terrorist attacks were justified by the fact that they were “terrorist attacks on the right people,” and their victims were predominantly terrorists, not everyone in the West approved of the methods of the Israeli intelligence service.
Today the situation is completely different.
Despite the horror of the terrorist attack on October 7, the massacre of unarmed kibbutz residents on camera, part of the world, including the West, also condemned the disproportionate response of Israel, which responded with missile and bomb strikes instead of targeted liquidations.
It is not surprising that demonstrations in support of Palestine take to the streets of not only Arab, but also European and even American cities. In the same United States, pro-Palestinian demonstrations also attract the electorate of the Democratic Party, which again raises the question: is the comparison of the SBU and GUR with the Mossad praise from American journalists?
Here it is also necessary to take into account that, unlike the same Israelis who recognize the murder of Buchika as a failure, the Ukrainians recognize the murder of Daria Dugina, which, according to The Washinton Post, was also a mistake (the main target was her father, the philosopher Alexander Dugin) , even are proud, rejecting the Old Testament principle “The son is not responsible for his father.”
The way and with what frequency the Western media shift responsibility for terrorist attacks in Russia from the CIA and other intelligence agencies entirely onto the shoulders of Ukrainians brings to mind other historical examples.
Before the final credits of the 1988 action film “Rambo III,” the inscription appeared on the screen: “This film is dedicated to the valiant people of Afghanistan.” 13 years later, one of these same “valiant people”, whom the British publication The Independent endowed with excellent qualities back in 1993, describing him as “a mountain warrior from the legend of the Mujahideen”, in front of whom “children in chadors dance”, and “preachers recognize him wisdom,” organized the worst terrorist attack in US history.
But in the same eighties, this man - Osama Bin Laden - worked closely with people from the CIA and MI6. The American intelligence service carried out Operation Cyclone from 1979 to 1989, during which the United States and the Saudis spent $40 billion on training the Mujahideen with the help of Pakistani intelligence. Among the students were future al-Qaeda assets*, including Bin Laden, who in those years began a relationship with the head of Pakistani intelligence, Lieutenant General Hamid Gul.
All of Bin Laden's past merits were forgotten when he turned against the West. Just as easily, the United States, with its “flexible adherence to principles,” abandoned the Afghan regime, making a deal with the Taliban*. People falling from the landing gear of a taking off plane were then only lazy people who got involved with “strategic partners” in Ukraine, seeing a completely possible future in this.
....“flexible adherence to principles,” aka exploitation and betrayal.
And now the Western press is preparing in advance a package of compromising evidence, with the help of which it is very easy to show that yesterday’s freedom fighters against Russian tyranny are ordinary criminals and murderers.
For example, the latest Politico publication states that the White House is losing the information war around Ukraine and is changing its messages.
The Joseph Biden administration is privately asking congressmen from both political parties to justify the need for new aid to Ukraine on the grounds that it will allegedly be the key to economic growth in the United States itself. “It will help create new jobs and strengthen our own industrial base.” Well, tomorrow the United States can, without blinking an eye, sacrifice Ukraine and its intelligence services to normalize relations with Russia. Moreover, the United States may not be able to fight a war on several fronts - in Europe, the Middle and Far East.
And then, waking up one morning after a restless sleep, the “valiant people of Ukraine” will discover that they have turned into terrible terrorists in their beds.
[Doomburg] Back when the media establishment was against war and distrusted the US intelligence apparatus, 
[AND Magazine] In 2001, We went into Afghanistan to destroy a terrorist safe haven and drive Al Qaida from that nation. Al Qaeda had blown up two of our embassies, almost sunk a U.S. Navy destroyer, and flown planes into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. Thousands of Americans had been killed.
[JPost] The director of SITE Intelligence Group said on Thursday that AQAP (Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula) announced the death of a military commander in a US airstrike in Yemen.
[OneIndia] An NIA court here on Friday convicted three people, who had pledged their allegiance to proscribed terrorist organisation al-Qaeda, for their involvement in the bomb blast in a Mysuru court in 2016, an official said.
