The protestors 100% have support organizing and coordinating them. The first places targetted were weapons stores (miliatry and priveate, there are videos of them breaking into a military base and stealing mortar shells and tubes) an unmarked cars with trunks full of said weapons dropping them off in the middle of crowds. Also they were very quick to target govt centres and burn them down. The organization of the protest is sophisticated.

As to who is organizing it? not sure. Kazakstan does have mandatory military services to the run of the mill idiots still have military training, so its possible its organic.

it does have the feel of a color revolution like Maidan so its possible its CIA organized to draw Russia's attention away from Ukraine and destabilize Russia's Uranium supply (most of the raw uranium is mined in Kazakhstan). Belarus also had a failed colored revolution recently.

But considering how quick Russia responded i would not be surprised if its a false flag to fold Kazakstan under Russia's wing more. the have already secured Belarus, so it kind would make sense for them to pre-empt any more failed CIA actions. What lends more this theory is the Wests near silence on this. Usually if its a colored revolution there is a media campaign of support already lined up for western news. There was attention on Belarus for nearly 3 weeks.

so hard to say whats really going on.

China has expressed support for the Kazakh official govt and Russia's action and declared that they will be sending troops. I dont have a source outside of Almaty though
