"UN says that deadly violence in Kyrgyzstan was orchestrated; Government has pointed to hired attackers" by Yuras Karmanau and Sergei Grits, Associated Press | June 16, 2010
OSH, Kyrgyzstan — The United Nations has found evidence of bloody intent behind the chaos in Kyrgyzstan that killed hundreds, left the nation’s second-biggest city a smoldering ruin, and sent more than 100,000 ethnic Uzbeks fleeing.
The declaration by the UN that the fighting was “orchestrated, targeted, and well-planned’’ — set off by organized groups of gunmen in ski masks — bolsters government assertions that hired attackers marauded through Osh, shooting at Kyrgyz and Uzbeks to inflame old tensions.

AmeriKan MSM Confirms Kyrgyzstan Coup
Yeah, it is becoming clearer every day.
Kyrgyzstan’s interim leaders have blamed the former president’s inner circle for igniting the unrest — the worst ethnic violence to hit Central Asia in 20 years.
And we know who is backing him.
The bloodshed has eroded the provisional government’s grip on power and threatens a crucial referendum planned for later this month.
At a hospital near Osh yesterday, dozens of wounded Uzbeks lay in corridors and on broken beds, and many said the rampages were premeditated.
“Well-armed people who were obviously well-prepared for this conflict were shooting at us,’’ said Teymurat Yuldashev, 26, who had bullet wounds of different caliber in his arm and chest. “They were organized, with weapons, militants, and snipers. They simply destroyed us.’’
More than 100,000 Uzbeks have fled for their lives to neighboring Uzbekistan, and tens of thousands more, most of them women and children, were camped on the Kyrgyz side or stranded behind barbed-wire fences in a no man’s land....
Roza Otunbayeva, Kyrgyzstan’s interim president, said she talked again with President Dmitry Medvedev of Russia about sending in troops....
[This means that Russia, as well as the US, wants the situation there to deteriorate further, until "International" intervention (mostly American) becomes acceptable to the Kyrgyz govt. Russia and the United States are on the same page. The only hope for the Kyrgyz people is the people themselves. Kyrgyzstan must produce its own "JOHN CONNOR."] -- RIA Novosti Reports–Russia will not send peacekeepers to troubled Kyrgyzstan

The fertile Ferghana Valley was arbitrarily split between Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan by Soviet dictator Josef Stalin, a situation that has fomented ethnic tensions for decades. In 1990, hundreds were killed in a land dispute between Kyrgyz and Uzbeks in Osh, and only the Soviet army deployment quelled the fighting.
Nothing ethnic about land, sorry, MSM.
Uzbeks generally have been better off economically and owned many stores and cafes in Osh and other southern cities, making them enviable targets for mobs of young jobless Kyrgyz men.
Except THAT is NOT WHAT THIS WAS, MSM!
Yup, the COVER-UP for the CIA is IN PLACE in AmeriKa's MSM!!!!
Most Uzbeks also backed the interim government, hoping to win more political rights, while many Kyrgyz in the south have supported Bakiyev and worried that their interests would suffer under the new leadership.
And they think this helps?
Kyrgyzstan’s deputy security chief, Kubat Baibolov, said people close to Bakiyev’s family hired gunmen from neighboring Tajikistan, who drove around Osh in cars with tinted windows opening fire on Uzbeks and Kyrgyz to inflame tensions.
The DESTABILIZATION OPERATION seems to have WORKED, huh?
Some of the suspected gunmen have been detained and told authorities they were hired by Bakiyev supporters to start the deadly rampages, he said.
