1) KAZAKHSTAN - 1/6/22 Uprising, US funded biolabs & shady deals (thread)
It appeared as if Kazakhstan was headed towards an uprising early in 2022 as mass demonstrations threatened to topple Pres. Kassym-Jomart Tokayev’s government.

2) "After days of violent protests, Kazakhstan's President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev has vowed to destroy "armed bandits (about 20k strong)." He gave "special thanks" to Russian President Vladimir Putin for sending troops to quell the unrest."

3) "The White House questioned the need for Russian forces in Kazakhstan on Friday, with US Secretary of State Antony Blinken warning Kazakhstan that "once Russians are in your house, it's sometimes very difficult to get them to leave."

4) "The situation in Kazakhstan is a much bigger deal than Western media is letting on."
@ClintEhrlich did a great job of explaining here:

5) A little history - First President Nursultan Nazarbayev abruptly resigned in 2019. He had been the unchallenged leader of Kazakh since '89, when he was appointed first secretary of the Kazak Communist Party and then the country’s President in '90.

6) On June 9, 2019, Kassym-Jomart Tokayev had won the early presidential election with 70.96%, and was elected as the President of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

7) Karim Massimov, a close ally of the former President Nazarbayev, served twice as his prime minister.
"Kazakhstan's former intelligence chief (Mossimov) has been arrested on suspicion of treason following nationwide anti-government protests."

8) "According to emails from Hunter Biden’s laptop, US President Joe Biden’s wayward son referred to Kazak spy chief Masimov as a “close friend.” Both Joe and Hunter have also met with Masimov."

9) "Kazakhstan’s former dictator, Nazarbayev, used the UK to help safeguard a multibillion-dollar business empire built during his three-decade rule..."
Karim Massimov appears only to be the first domino to fall in Kazakh

10) This has seemed to have triggered another resignation.
"The oldest daughter of Kazakhstan’s ex-president has stepped down from parliament..."

11) The MSM is quick to assume everything Russia is reporting as propaganda.
"Russian newspapers quickly ran headlines saying that the West organized a color revolution in Kazakhstan to distract from the security talks with Russia over Ukraine." thehill.com/opinion/intern…

12) However, this is from a UK-based publisher,
"Will Washington, Tel Aviv, Europe and the financiers push to stop their plans, or will they move to plan in other countries? Which countries will those be?"

13) "The current turbulence signified an abortive attempt at color revolution, which boomeranged." -Asia Times
🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃🪃
I repeat, which Boomeranged 💥

14) This is most likely the Russian report which was referred to above in The Hill.
I can see why they would want to quickly dismiss it.

15) "Paradoxically, these biological labs are living examples of something sinister that has been going on that everyone knew and no one wanted to talk about – namely, the extensive penetration of the decadent Kazakh ruling elites by US intelligence." (13) 😱

16) So, WHY would Russia think the US /UK want a color revolution?
Probably bc this is what happened 2 years after Obama took office. They remember the Arab Spring,which really kicked off in Jan 2011.

17) They can not DENY these biolabs exist.
"When it opens in 2015, the Central Reference Laboratory is expected to focus on some of the world’s most dangerous emerging pathogens..."
news.yahoo.com/central-asia-f…

18) Even the Salon wrote about them. "And as a project under that Pentagon program, the Defense Threat Reduction Agency, the lab will be built, and some of its early operation funded, by American taxpayers."
salon.com/2013/08/29/the…

19) "According to publicly available US sources, DTRA has been conducting reserach in Kazakhstan since at least 2005. There are now six biological facilities there, created with Pentagon money as part of the CBEP project,.."

20) Wolfe's book, "The Viral Storm" has a map or international locations for Metabiota (aka Global Viral Forecasting Initiative). Program Site and Regional Lab are marked on Kazakh. Note: I did not locate published research projects or studies from Wolfe's companies from Kazakh.

21) Is it making sense yet? The corrupt Kazakhstan President, which helped the Clintons with their uranium mining deal is now out.
Surely, the rest of them need something to happen to keep their cash cow protected.
breitbart.com/politics/2015/…

22) Or is it gone? "Hunter allegedly tried to facilitate investment for his cash in NY, DC, and a Nevada mining company. Per the report, Hunter successfully got a $1 million investment from Rakishev to a politically-connected filmmaker.

23) Reminder... this is coming after the Ukrainian billionaire got busted in the US. "Igor Kolomoisky is accused of funneling money from a Ukrainian bank into properties across the US." Money that was not his, I should add.
