| Ah yes, the "independent" news outlet that was totally not set up by the European version of the National Endowment for Democracy, i.e. the CIA's public propaganda arm. Also totally not funded by the Canadian government, also totally not aggressively pushed right from its inception just a few months before the Ukraine war by Twitter's algorithms to people who never chose to subscribe to it.

| Thanks for your comment and for the link. But… > There was nothing inherent in Russia’s invasion of Ukraine which called for this specific response from all the specific nations who have chosen to participate in it Really ?? |

I think she meant there were many possible ways to respond to the invasion, some of which may not have needed to involve a grave boomerang hit against the Western population's purchasing power and living standard - especially in the EU - but since that's what Washington/Langley wanted done, and since they have the overwhelming propaganda power to make everyone believe that was the only right choice, that's what got done, end of story. And most people still today see no problem with that having been presented as the "only option", not even in the face of it having utterly failed to produce the intended changes in Moscow and in the course of the conflict. | |
