Democracy Murdered By Protest: Ukraine Falls To Intrigue and Violence | Global Research

 Who’s
in charge?  Certainly not the bought-and-paid-for-moderates that
Washington and the EU hoped to install as the new government of Ukraine.
The agreement that the Washington and EU supported opposition concluded
with President Yanukovich to end the crisis did not last an hour. 

Even the former boxing
champion, Vitaly Klitschko, who was riding high as an opposition leader
until a few hours ago has been booed by the rioters and shoved aside.
The newly appointed president by what is perhaps an irrelevant
parliament, Oleksandr Turchynov, has no support base among those who
overthrew the government. As the BBC reports, “like all of the
mainstream opposition politicians, Mr. Turchynov is not entirely trusted
or respected by the protesters in Kiev’s Independence Square.” 

In
western Ukraine the only organized and armed force is the
ultra-nationalist Right Sector. From the way this group’s leaders speak,
they assume that they are in charge.

One
of the group’s leaders, Aleksandr Muzychko, has pledged to fight
against “Jews and Russians until I die.”  Asserting the Right Sector’s
authority over the situation, Muzychko declared that now that the
democratically elected government has been overthrown, “there will be
order and discipline” or “Right Sector squads will shoot the bastards on
the spot.”

The bastards are any protesters who dare to protest the Right Sector’s control.

Muzychko declared, “The next president of Ukraine will be from Right Sector.”
