  • Kasparov the neo-conservative - II

    Kasparov the neo-conservative - part 2

    I have more information that is useful in regard to Kasparov's neo-conservative views.

    The following link demonstrates that Kasparov had such views LONG BEFORE the current office holder became President of Russia. I think this is important because there is this personalization of politics - Putin as Hitler, literally - that disguises the general Russophobia behind it all.

    What we see here is that even when Mikhail Gorbachev was Russian leader, Kasparov displayed the same, xenophobic attitude characteristic of neo cons. It really doesn't matter who is in office. Kasparov just wants bad things to happen to Russia. Which explains why he could never get elected - to any public office - in that country.

    The leopard truly cannot change his spots.

    Have at it. lol.

    A neo-con in 1991 and still a neo con. oh yeah.

    In a major public address this evening, Garry Kasparov — the World Chess Champion and champion of democracy in the former Soviet Union — expressed grave concerns about the anti-democratic effects of continued U.S. and Western support for Mikhail Gorbachev and Moscow center. Noting that “[while] Soviet communism is dead … its advocates are still very powerful in the West,” Kasparov urged Washington and its allies to provide humanitarian aid and technical advice to the Soviet people — but no financial assistance to the Soviet central authorities.
    With whom does Kasparov associate with today?

    As Anatoly Karlin wrote your blog is indeed the new La Russophobe Exposed, and is in fact a far better site.

    Suspected members or contributors to the La Russophobe ‘we':

    1) Catherine Fitzpatrick – Minding Russia

    Pros: Same New York location, same screeching moralistic style, and formerly worked for Ford and Soros funded foundations (historically, all too frequent cutouts for U.S. government activities in USSR and CIS) while writing for RFE/RL. Claims Paul Goble as a friend, which would explain why LR republishes him almost more than any other single writer. Writers ranging from U of H (colleague of Craig Pirrong aka Streetwise Professor? Why so many Russophobes in Houston?) Professor Paul R. Gregory to Georgetown Law Professor Ethan S. Burger all pretend to have no knowledge of who LR is while giving her lots of content. At the very least these fellows must have an inkling of LR’s real identity. The LR = Fitzpatrick theory would also go a long way towards explaining why Oleg Kozlovsky published on LR despite the site’s documented anti-Russian racism. The same foundations that fund Catherine also fund Mr. Kozlovsky’s trips to New York and D.C.

    Cons: Why risk public reputation to maintain her Google-bombing alter ego? Moonlighting for more money to live in Manhattan? And how to square LR’s often laughably ignorant statements about American politics (i.e. Ron Paul and Pat Buchanan, libertarians and paleocons respectively who are often guests on mainstream networks = former KKK leader David Duke) and GMT posting schedule which suggest more a Berezovsky-linked Brit than an American?

    2) Jamestown Foundation

    Pros: aka Prometheanism R Us! Exposed in the eXile as a place for any self-proclaimed journalist with a grudge against the Russian Empire to set up shop. Began in the 1980s as an old folks home for U.S. agencies to park their KGB/GRU defectors who needed some income and an outlet for their ramblings. Was directly criticized by the Russian government for promoting Chechen separatism. Linked to American Council for Peace in Chechnya. Probably not going to be happy if Russians start speaking to pro-Texan or Alaskan separatist groups in retaliation.

    Cons: Difficult to see what the cons might be for Jamestown in throwing a few bucks LR’s way.

    3) Orion Strategies Group/Randy Scheunemann pro-Georgia lobby

    Pros: LR has cooperated with this set in the past, promoting the website RevokeTheGames.com, which was registered by a company linked to West Coast conservative talk radio host Hugh Hewitt who frequently hosts neocon talking heads like Max Boot and Center for Security Policy chief Frank Gaffney on his show (Garry Kasparov also appeared on the CSP’s page).

    Cons: The Georgia lobby has plenty of other websites such as georgiadaily.com to promote their message, and may have moved on.
    Russophobes exposed.



    The old thread is over here ...

      Please name a Soviet leader too.

      After one month of the Kasparov's speech ["July 25, 1991 "In a major public address this evening"] a new Rusisan leader emerged and many new countries including Ukraine. What a powerful speech LOL

          I'm simply trying to show that Kasparov's views haven't changed since the time of Gorbachev. His Russophobia is continuous and unchanging, having seemingly nothing to do with whoever is in power. Or should I say that it makes no difference who is in power. Such obstinate and xenophobic views aren't desirable in someone who aspires to a high office like President of FIDE. This is aside from his style of leadership which is another matter over which he's been widely criticized ... and even by those who like him. (Mig Greenguard, eg)

              If you think there is some kind of large support for Russia and Putin in this country you're dreaming. I see Russia as the greatest present threat to world peace and security.

              The FIDE presidential election wasn't about relationships on a national level. They were mainly about who could best govern and grow FIDE. Kirsan had a track record which the voting federations supported. It looked to me like the voting nations chose to support the current FIDE leadership and mostly stay the course.

                  James Bissett: "The current crisis in Ukraine threatens global security and at worst has the potential for nuclear catastrophe. At best it signals a continuation of the Cold War. Sadly, the crisis is completely unnecessary and the responsibility lies entirely in the hands of the United States – led NATO powers. The almost virulent propaganda onslaught blaming Russia for the instability and violence in Ukraine simply ignores reality and the facts."

                  But what does James Bissett know? He was only a diplomat and Canada’s ambassador to Yugoslavia, Albania, and Bulgaria.

                    That's complete opinion from a piece written BEFORE Russia decided to send bombers to the edge of our northern air space to test our readiness. That after the Ukraine president spoke to our parliament. Nothing short of a threat.

                    It wouldn't surprise me if he still feels the same. However, don't mistake his worthless opinion for the reality of Canadian interests.

                        what do diplomats and military spokespeople know anyway?

                        aha ha ha ha ha. Not only are you apparently smarter about Canada's best interests than a former diplomat who represented the views of Canada in three different countries, but you are also more knowledgeable about "threats" to Canada than a current spokesperson for NORAD. I tip my hat to your obvious all-sided genius on every possible subject.

                        On Thursday morning, two Canadian CF-18 fighter jets intercepted two Russian long-range bombers about 40 miles off the Canadian coastline in the Beaufort Sea.... In both cases, the Russian planes entered the Air Defence Identification Zone, which extends about 200 miles from the coastline.

                        They did not enter sovereign airspace of the United States or Canada.

                        Mr Jazdyk said the fighter jets were scrambled "basically to let those aircraft know that we see them, and in case of a threat, to let them know we are there to protect our sovereign airspace".

                        The US and Russia are increasingly at odds over the conflict in Ukraine, where Russian-backed separatists have been fighting for control of parts of the former Soviet state.

                        In the past five years, jets under Norad's command have intercepted more than 50 Russian bombers approaching North American airspace.

                        "We do not see these flights as a threat," said John Cornelio, another spokesman for Norad, which is a binational American and Canadian command responsible for air defence in North America."

                          Is this the person you use to support your views? Sounds like he's been to Russia.

                            Actually I think they do that on a continual basis. This isn't the first time I have read about such threatened incursions / "training exercises".
