Three Ukranian FEMEN topless protesters were kidnapped by the Belarusian KGB, tortured, stripped, had their hair cut, and were left naked in a forest. The protesters had earlier held a protest against Aleksandr Lukashenko, Europe’s only remaining dictator.
VIDEO is here.
Russia Today reported:
Three Ukrainian FEMEN activists have allegedly been kidnapped by Belarusian KGB officers who threatened the protesters with knives, cut their hair and then left the women alone in the woods, says the movement’s webpage.
The activists disappeared on Monday in the Belarusian capital, Minsk, after protesting in front of the KGB building against the country’s long-ruling president, Aleksandr Lukashenko.
“From 6 pm Kiev time, the connection with the FEMEN activists has been lost, and one hour later all their mobile phones appeared to be switched off,” a statement on the movement’s webpage said.
Later one of the missing women, Irina Shevchenko, managed to get access to a phone. The activist told her colleagues she had been detained by the police and KGB officers at Minsk railway station, together with two other FEMEN protesters.
“We were blindfolded and put into a bus,” Shevchenko said. “Then they took us to the woods, poured oil over us, forced us to undress – threatening to set fire to us or stab us with knives. They later used those knives to cut our hair.”
Then the activists were left alone in the woods, with no clothes or documents. The girls made a long journey on foot before finding help in a small village which turned out to be deep in the Belarusian outback.
In their blog, the movement’s leaders called on locals to help the activists hide from the police until Ukrainian embassy staff managed to rescue them.

Well. The “dictator” has more popular support that most of the presidents and PMs of the NWO-rubberstamped “democracies”.
He has successfully kept away the usual “free-market” looters. Long Live Lukashenko!

BTW, the “female protester” in the middle of the photo…
NorthernX commented:
Heh.
Many now all those poor opressed FEMEN in hardline Muslim countries will stand in solidarity with their Belarusian FEMEN-kin and stage their own protest. That should go over well…
Anyways. Homosexuality is an illness and it should have never been taken off the books as such.
Left untreated…well, see the image above.

Oops…what I meant to say was..I STRONGLY disapprove of that.

Wait.
I’m confused.
Are we supposed to approve of this or disapprove of it because I’m sorta’ getting a Code Pink vibe here.

You got that shot right. Once the left wing quacks did that, it turned on the green light for mainstreaming a dysfunctional lifestyle, and paved the way for the mocking of traditional marriage.

It seems to me that your moral compass must need substantial repair if you are in doubt as to whether to approve or disprove of protesters being kidnapped, tortured and left naked in the woods – at the hand of the government.

Humm, occupiers here rape, drug induce losers, murder, defecate, stab and injure cops, murder and some run around naked.
Iran protesters shot and killed. Syria murders. Beheading in Middle East and Terrorists bombings.
I almost believe they got off easy all things considered and the KGB is one imaginative outfit.
Torture by stripping, oil and threats of setting on fire.
Granny commented:
So, Patty – let me understand this. You’re saying that because the OWS here are a bunch of criminals and the dictatorships of Iran, Syria and others kill those who protest against them, that is is just fine for the Ukrainian government to strip & torture protesters?
Your logic escapes me . .
Patty commented:
By the looks of their hair in the picture, it looks like it was chopped off already. The one in the middle must be going to Man’s Barber Shoppe.

Does the way they look somehow make them more “worthy” of being kidnapped and tortured at the hands of the government? What about if they were disabled – or Catholic – or some color other than white? Do those things make it OK for a government to torture people who protest against it?

Granny, Please! Occupiers here have been getting away with just short of murder, yet, Ukrainian Femen are protests topless and are sent to the woods, doused in oil, threaten fire and left to root.
Our society let’s just short of murder, protestors would think twice if this demise was waiting for them.

Patty, I am thoroughly disgusted that I’ve ever made your acquaintance! How can you hold your head up among civilized people? What you advocate is exactly the same as Nazi Germany – and yet you are here every day claiming to be a conservative, a Christian.
What if YOU wanted to protest some action of our government and had such a prospect waiting for YOU? That still OK?

What part of totalitarian dictatorship did the ladies not understand. They were lucky to escape with their lives and limbs.
I thank God every day that I live in America. May she ever stay the land of the free and the home of the brave.

If we can keep it Opus. People simply don’t seem to understand that the single most precious right we have is the right to protest the actions of our government.
I’m sure these women did know what they were in for. What courage it must take to stand up in the face of that!

Isn’t this the same thing Moochie Obama did to patients at her cushy Cook County Hospital job, that eventially got her fired ?

I call bullsh*t.
Firstly it has been minus 30 degrees in Europe lately & people are freezing to death in clothes. Hw could these women survive naked?
Second . What have Ukrainians got to do with Byelorussia? Oh btw back home in Ukraine over 100 people have frozen to death.
Granny you are an idiot.
RKae commented:
I’ve seen too damned many of these “hate crimes” turn out to be attention-whoring scams.
This one has that stink to it.
Steve commented:
Wunderground gives temperatures right now in Belarus around -11ºC (12ºF), down to -17ºC (1ºF). Do you survive there, naked?
Granny commented:
If you read the report cited above carefully you will oote that this happened long enough ago for the women to have been kidnapped, held, tortured, dumped in the woods, be interviewed, have the report make it to the West and be picked up here. If you check the weather archives available online you will not that until about two weeks ago daytime highs in the Kiev region were running close to 40F. That might seem cold to you if you do not live I a cold climate, but here in Vermont we think that is a pretty balmy day – certainly warm enough for the Polar Bear Club. Sure it might be a bit nipple without your shirt, but nowhere near cold enough to call this bunk.
I really have to wonder, though, why all of you fine, upstanding, conservative, Christian folks are attacking the demonstrators and the report. Apparently it is just fine in your book for a government to kidnap, torture and dump to be left for dead protesters that disagree with some position you might hold – or must those who don’t have the right appearance.
Lord Sandwich commented:
Granny
Kiev is a long way from Minsk.
You are still stupid.
