Chinaman Square all over again?

lol that's what i called it when i watched it live, i freaked out, was like, five yrs old

Kyrgyzstan sound like a shit tier country so i'm not surprised.

>>559794
So why is it that rioters(sp?) never use shields of their own?

Transit Center at Manas is a United States military installation at Manas International Airport, near Bishkek, the capital of Kyrgyzstan, primarily operated by the U.S. Air Force.

I'm wondering what Americunts are doing now.

Fucked up shit is going there right now.

This wont get the same coverage the Iranian protests did.

Serves them right for being former Soviet?

BBC is covering it, but the UK Elections is of course hogging the spotlight.

>>559852

0:52 the cop is getting beat with a nightstick :D

Why are they protesting?

Wait? Euronews just said the protesters just took the Parliament by force? Is this true?

>>559917

They want the president to resign.

>>559917
Current leader is accused of corruption and jailing anyone who criticises him.

>>559926
that happened yesterday

picture a dude with his feet up on the coffee table eating an apple while news about this shit is on the tv. Thats how irrelevant this story is to americans

Even the protestors have AK's and RPG's. Shit is not going to end well.

the Obama riots

http://abstract2001.livejournal.com/1093272.html

Lots of pictures here.

>>559965
Oh look, association of riots on a different continent with the Obama administration. Oh how I rage, look at my cruise control of rage.

guise? What's the protest about?

>>559987
According to BBC:

The protesters are angry at rising energy prices and accuse President Bakiyev of failing to tackle corruption.

So is this open revolt, or just typical angsty teenage rioting?

>>559942


same amerifag here:..... and the only thing hes thinking is "damn, where did i set that toothpick"

>>560011
Genuine open armed revolt. Not organised though. So it will probably fizzle out after a few weeks. Unless someone manages to take charge of it of course.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJzokH2VQAA

Riots have AKs, it won't end peacefully.

>>559987
I've got family in Kazahkstan and they've basically told me it's not really a revolution with one particular goal, just a huge riot. There are a lot of different groups angry about a lot of different things and they've all decided to go and fuck shit up pretty much. From what they've told me it's complete chaos, with rioters robbing shops, robbing other people, and killing police officers. There have been snipers on top of government buildings killing everyone who tries to get close, some rioters tried to rob a gun shop, but were killed by the owners. Many police officers and government officials have fled the city, which is probably why in so many of the picture the protestors have their shields, helmets and weapons.

Plus it will be dark soon, they expect things are going to get much worse.

>>559942
it's fun to watch, though

>>560031
>rioters robbing shops, robbing other people, and killing police officers.

And that's why these so-called "protestors" always fail miserably.

If they'd go directly for the government instead of just looting by a bunch of niggers they could get something done and gain the support of the international community.

>>560056
I think as usual with this sort of thing there's a hardcore group at the centre that actually want change, most people just use it as an opportunity to get free stuff and/or beat up some cops.

>>560056
They did. They already took parliament and attacked several government buildings.

>>560067
I think at this point it all depends on the response of the Kyrgyz military. shit like Hungary '56 was pretty successful until the Soviets steamrolled them with massive tank support. I really doubt any sort of international response in this day and age.

>>560082
If it were the old days (And if I was wearing a tin foil hat), I'd say the Russians were going to pour over the border and 'stabilize' the country.

Instead yeah, the locale military might clamp down if its necessary. I doubt the world would even care.

>>560082
If it's true that they captured the Parliament like that anon suggested, they're in a pretty good position. Capturing the hub of governance in a country makes the administration look weak and frail.

>>560126
They never really did move from those old, almost soviet style uniforms did they.

>>560152
I don't think they could afford that

Got to admire their courage to raise against their corrupt Government.

Not like Americans had the balls to do so during the Bush administration. Maybe they did, they were just too unfit to battle the police.

>>560152

Why would they? They're badass.

>>560169
>Implying Reagan, Bush, Clinton, and Obama were not corrupt
>Implying any US president since the 1930s hasn't been corrupt

>>560169
...you think the American government was corrupt for 8 years? and not the last...40 or so?

>>560179
>>560178
Had a lot of time to do something about it, what's taking so long? American democracy? Ha'.

>>560199
times were good, so we just didn't really care

still don't

>>560199

>>560208
>Times were good
>Been corruption in our Government before my parents were born
>I'm a butthurt American, we're the home of the brave, don't fuck with us... but please don't hurt me. Please. Stop looking at me. Okay, take all my money, I don't care.

No jews or niggers or liburals involved who cares?

>>560220
They're all Liberals, they're the only ones who actually do something

>>560213
yeah america is a pretty damn good place to live, regardless of what goes on behind closed doors, get over it

This is what closed minded Americans who never leave their counties believe.

Google translate says: "The opposition has appointed commandant of Bishkek"

Someone who comprehends russian should confirm.

>>560288
its legit

President of Kyrgyzia left the country about 2 hours ago.

>>560288
The google translator says the president left the country too?

>>560346
I don't think so.

>Former Speaker of the Parliament of Kyrgyzstan Tekebayev. speaking live on state television NTRC, announced the appointment of commandant of Bishkek. According to "Fergana.Ru" , he became a colonel retired police Turat Madalbekov.
Tekebayev also said that some opposition leaders went on discussions with officials, headed by Prime Minister Daniyar Usenov. According to Tekebayev, they will be asked to voluntarily hand over power to the opposition and the people. Officials will be guaranteed, if possible, security.

>>560364
According to the latest news, president left the country.

>>560169
Oh, come on. It's not like GW was going around and imprisoning dissidents or executing political rivals. Also, I shouldn't have to remind you that the illegal wiretap program established by the Bush regime continues under liberal savior Barack Hussein.

Ah yes, the glorious nation of Kyrsyrsyrgyriistzstan.

i hope they just shoot all protestfags

>>560402
They'd probably shoot back at this point, so not such a good idea.

>>560409

>>559875
mainly because americans would have no freaking idea how to spell their shit country

>>560567
no it's because we just don't care

on the other hand, iran has oil n shit

It is an attempt at a coup. The U.S. base in the country is a key factor and its fate will indicate who is behind today's events. If it is Moscow then the base will disappear, if it is Washington the base will remain in place.

>>560574
don't forget about China.

Any news on the US airbase? How's it holding up?

Bumpsky

>>560573

>You are now aware that Kyrgyzstan has some of the largest oil reserves on the planet

pay attn americoons.

this is how you do it.

>>560620

Or wait was that Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, or one of those other 'stans that no one knows about...

Pakistan, Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrghyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan...and in some languages India is called Hindustan.

>>560656
Greece is called Yunanistan in Turkish, no joke.

>>560432
The protestors have RPGs.

>>560629
It's Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan actually. They have large reserves of natural gas.

Ugh, the under reporting on UK news channels is annoying as hell.

I had to switch to Russia Today.

RUSSIA. TODAY.

>>560766
RUSSIA STRONG

>>560766
I fucking love Russia Today, they have hot newsreaders. The BBC just has old women now.. Feels bad man.

bump this is fucking important

>>560821

>>560914
It will be important when they have a coup and they appoint someone as the new leader.

For now it's just youngsters fucking shit up.
It may be over tommorow.

"Oh its another revolution in Eurasia. Who cares."

you need an IPAD!

That's all, folks.

Russian news agency RIA cited the opposition as saying later the government had resigned and President Kurmanbek Bakiyev had left the capital.

Whoa, it actually worked?

>>559942
Seriously, they probably had a minute segment about this on FOX

Heh, back in 2004ish, i read that this country has a never ending revolution since the fall of the soviet union. Always stuck me as strange that they were a bunch of Asians with Russian names.

>>561430
Mmm, maybe. The rioters are saying the government has resigned, so it's not official. But, that's how their prime minister came into power in 2005, by means of revolt.

Fucking eastern Europeans, hate them.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSfnax1yWMQ

THIS JUST IN. FORMER PRESIDENT STEPS DOWN AND LEAVES COUNTRY.

OPPOSITION HAS TAKEN PARLIAMENT AND PRESIDENT'S HOUSE.

NEW GOVERNMENT TO BE FORMED.

>>560097
That is what I immediately thought. Russia will play the part of 'peace keepers'. Hell if the major catalyst is energy prices it may have been Russia raising the prices in the first place.

>>561541
VIVA LA REVOLTION

Wait, someone actually did something somewhere?

Amerikka is next hopefully : )

AS LONG AS YOU LIVE, COMRADE...

THE HEART OF THIS PROTEST CAN NEVER BE BROKEN.

Wait a successful revolution?

How long has it been?

Why don't the Iranians have balls like this.

BUMPING FOR NEW GLORIOUS GOVERNMENT

>>561541
Americunts, watch and learn. It took only 2 days.

But...but... this wasn't revolution! It was terrorism! They usurped the official government! WE MUST INVADE TO PROTECT THEIR FREEDOMS.

These bastards know how to protest.

Pussy ass Americans and Brits who just bring signs need to take a lesson from the Kyrgyzstanians.

>>560521
>>560521

Totally empty now..

This is the kind of stuff American'ts will never again have the balls to do. Iranians protest and die in the streets, Bangkok is awash with blood, the Kyrgyz are rebelling, but Americunts just loudly agree with whatever Glenn Beck is ranting about on TV.

Laughable.

You will never rebel, you will never rise, you will take it up the ass until the day you die and are outnumbered by black muslims. Haha.

most users here are from America. who gives a shit about this krickwackistan

Wait what, the president fled just because some protesters began to fight back? lolwut

>>563577

Dude they broke the parliament gates down and shit...

>>563559
That's not an amerikkan problem but of all first world countries. The citizen are to lazy and apathetic, still live in relative luxury and the profiteers of the current global system, many are dependent on government money and 99% of the system running. That's why nobody will rebel, not even if you will see troops patrolling the streets, because as long as you are able to play your vidya, visit McD and watch some television then everything is perfectly right

>>563559
What are Americans supposed to be rebelling against again? If I had a good reason to start killing random people I assume I would. I have no such reason at the moment. Life is satisfactory man.

>>563802
As long as I am able to live a long happy life I won't rebel? And that makes me a sheep or something? If I am satisfied with the way things are, whats the point of rebelling? You don't just start a revolution because you have a few problems with the way things are. You do it because you have no other option.

So they took down their entire government with only a few hundred dead or wounded? That is one shitty government.

>>563559
We don't need to rebel or rise up. Our country is still capable of peaceful transference of power from one regime to the next.

didn't make a thread cause I can't spell that retarded jumble of consonants, also not sure I give 1,2, 3 or 4 fucks

>>563929
>implying america ever has actual transfers of power.

>>563961
It does happen once every half century or so. We're do for one in about twenty years.

Bah.

>>563559
>>563559
Yeah that kind of thing has NEVER happened in the USA amirite

What the fuck is a Kyrgyzstan? Is that in africa?

>>564023

THIS IS WHAT AMERICANS ACTUALLY BELIEVE

bump

what the fuck is "Kyrgyzstan"

>Kyrgyzstan
>stan
>implying something that happens to the people in a country that ends with "stan" is important to anyone else in the world

Why is this not on every news station?

Fuck, there was revolt and the people have taken over a country

I guess people care more about Tiger Woods and Sandra Bollock than world events

>>565620
But it was part of Russia, it's a white nation

Nobody gives a shit about Asscrackistan.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kyrgyzs

Is Mongolia a "white" nation too?

That country has always been a total mind fuck to me. It is a country with an Arabic name, populated by chinks, and everybody speaks Russian or some shit.

Americans are such pussies.

They let their leaders give trillions directly to the private bankers.

They let their leaders sell them out to the private insurance companies and FORCE them by law to give their after tax earnings to them.

Yet, the protests? Barely a 2 minute blurb on CNN because nobody does anything. It's just a bunch of fat old white people with nothing better to do standing around with some shitty signs.

Pathetic.

America, I am disappoint.

>>565874
Welcome to Asia, O wide-eyed traveller.

wait they look like chinamen in a country with a dirka name

>>565874

>Arabic name

- stan prefix is Persian (at least now you know!)

Kyrgyz is Turkic

>populated by chinks, and everybody speaks Russian or some shit.

Turkic peoples, kinda like Mongols, obviously related to the Turks etc, and they speak a Turkic language and Russian, they'd speak English too if they had any brains.

I'm jealous, they beat us to the revolution...

>>566005

>stan prefix is Persian (at least now you know!)

I meant to say suffix

dude, is everyone this uneducated
central asia
think about it

Americans are smarter than we look. We will study these revolts and learn. When they least expect it, we will take our land back over.

>>565920

nothing changes until everyones life changes somehow negative
I assume most of these people actually are severely more fucked out
also, remember that some other group probably is influencing this since the central gov isn't very stable
you can pick who that group is

>>566046
>Americans are smarter than we look.

0/10000

>>566051
>some other group probably is influencing this since
If it is the what usually happens then they are being financed by America... That's how Brazil, Philippines, Argentina, and the rest of them turned fascist and almost Venezuela too, but the people are starting to see through it.

>>566060
>0/10000
not trolling, but why such a low score : (

>>566111

alright 3/10

>>566099
are you saying this revolt is foreign instigated??

>>566060
The average human IN GENERAL is smarter than they look. I have great faith in the average person. They know bullshit when they smell it.

Russia let this happen, even encouraged it, utilizing popular discontent to put in a better regime for their interests and get rid of American influence. The Kyrgyz people are probably winners too. Thiis was Russian territory until 18 years ago, they still keep them on a leash. Not good for the US.

>>566126
Agreed.
We don't want to give ourselves away.
We are smart enough to know that,
so we do what we can. wait and learn.
This is the calm before the storm.
The deep breath before the plunge.

>>566204
No you don't

From what I am hearing, the dude who claims leadership of the opposition is setting up a "people's" government.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8608440.stm

The fighting is over Kyrgyzstan's government being corrupt evil fucks buying mansions in Europe while these guys starved and had no heating during the coldest winter in years.
It broke out when the government placed the president's son (a renowned mobster) in a high position. Then they started killing folks for saying that the "GDP wasn't being reported" and that "funds are mismanaged."
Shit hit the fan. The average civilian walks around in 20 year old shoes while those faggots let a mobster have access to the treasury.
Also the cops have already shot live rounds and killed more than a hundred protesters.

>>566325
Doesn't a peoples government usually imply communism?

>>566354
This and one or two more reasons.
You can basically only get a job with connections.
All the people in government where 100% corrupt.
Same with education. (bribery and pro-regime campaigning was the only way to finish)

But they also went and had the opposition leaders arrested.

>>565920
hatersgonnahate.jpg

Russia pulling the strings

>>566382
No it implies a Democracy. The greatest government one can have.

>>566060
you realize 0/100000000 is the exact same as 0/10?

No one pulled the strings.
The corrupt fucks at the top where just really incompetent this time around.
I mean laying out an energy tariff doubling already poor peoples bills? Shutting off heating in -30C? People died of pneumonia in their homes for fucks sake.

Does Amerika has any balls to repeat this?

bumpus

>>559782
I just read up on it, good for them, I think the government no longer has a right to do anything about this, the people have had their say

>>567173
The US already had a corrupt president putting his friends in positions of power. Nothing was done.

So is the military supporting this? I'd have thought deadly force would have been authorized to deal with the rioters, world opinion be damned

i always wonder, if mexico is so bad that all these immigrants have to sneak into america, why not just fix their own country, they clearly have enough people with all that have made it in. Kyrgyzstan has fucking balls, the people had their say

>>567338
In most of the reports I've seen, the military seem to be nowhere in sight. It's as if they're just standing aside and letting everyone sort their own shit out.

>>567338
Only an Americunt would think a nation's military would shoot their own people if some corrupt politician says to.

>>567338
it appears that riot police are the only ones on the scene, and it's not so much because they don't agree with their plight, but because...you know...the riots

Anyone following the riots in Thailand too?
