In short, the Biden/Neocon regime is achieving everything it set out to avoid: strengthening Russia, destroying Ukraine and their own free for all corruption hub, pushing Russia and China into each other's arms, creating a whole new multipolar world, and weakening the dollar hegemony that has ruled since WW2. Victoria Nuland was unavailable for comment this morning.

Luongo talks about this today. IMO, and it's only an opinion, Putin won't fall for the provocation. Continue reading down.

The urge for empire has its own logic. One that may ignore reality.

I hafta say, McGovern's style drives me a little crazy. I'm listening as a type.

Because that's the decision the Neocons have made, and they have run FP for decades.

In matters such as this, I would not refer to Wikipedia, except to look to see how they want to play us. There are so many alternative sources out there. Reading around a few in conjunction with pattern recognition will bring better clarity on what really happened.

LMAO. Anyone who takes what wikipedia “reports” about such a topic at face value can’t be taken seriously. Try a little harder.

The Maiden Coup was a color revolution.

My take is both sides are corrupt.

One side was US backed, the other Russian.

A tactic of a color revolution is back a local faction. And use media allies to vilify the other side. Constitutionality / rule of law is not relevant, which is why the label revolution or coup.

There was an article that went through the tactics of a color revolution, and yes, the US 2020 election has a lot of similarities.

how is it possible for US establishment to condemn relative mild J6 protests as "insurrection", while supporting the neo-Nazi vanguard at the Maidan riots which removed a democratically elected President? US picked the fight.

And it's wrong to attribute every action of Russian-speaking minority in Ukraine to "Russia". In Canada, Quebec would separate in a nanosecond if Canadian government instituted language policies even a fraction as repressive as those implemented by Ukraine government installed by US in 2014? Russian-speaking areas in Ukraine did precisely what Quebec would have done. It wasn't initiated by Russian government. Tho there was no way Russia was going to let US and NATO occupy Crimea - a traditional Russian area and key naval port under lease to Russia. Madness for Obama and Biden to inititate this escalating conflict.

I am delighted we are lied to with impunity. Our stupid government has thrown away the support of that sector of the public they most need if they want to accomplish anything. They will be duly gratified when their media paints a rosy picture of events, and blissfully unaware that the reality doesn't quite correspond. Any recession, or more likely depression, will be labeled as something else, and victory on paper in the Ukraine is assured. I'm afraid we will just have to disregard our government as much as possible in the future, and get on with our lives.

…yes, as “our” government and its henchmen and enforcers know no shame: no consequences, nothing to see here! As with the Twitter/God’s thunder, stolen and smashed into a million pieces by a mere mortal! Silence. Just attack the messenger.
