The version told by mainstream media says the conflict started in February 2022 erstwhile Vladimir Putin woke up 1 morning and for no reason decided to invade Ukraine. Just Putin is simply a mad dictator evil to the bone, and for his whim he decided to let it go. The leader of the planet power in his actions is driven by impulses, not the interests of the country. Can intelligent people believe the communicative of a cartoon?
It is not right for adults to say that the invasion of Ukraine was “unprovoked”
Caitlin Johnstone, Sep 7, 2022 https://www.veteranstoday.com/2022/10/01/its-not-ok-for-grown-adults-to-say-the-Ukraine-invasion-was-unprovoked/ In a fresh interview with the Podcast Useful Idiots Noam Chomsky repeated his argument that the only reason we hear the word "unprovoked" all time individual mentions a Russian invasion of ...
During the disastrous Vietnam War, it was said that the U.S. government treated society as a mushroom farm: it kept it in the dark and fed it manure. This comparison is inactive valid and applies to all governments. We should realize that our supposedly free media are not utilized to inform us and enlightened debate. They are only tools of brutal propaganda, no substance what we think.
What are the real causes of this war, you can understand, only seeing it in a broader context, but that is what no 1 does for fear of being Putin's agent. Neither historians nor journalists nor politicians dare to challenge authoritative propaganda, so no meaningful debate on these topics is possible. However, erstwhile historians compose about the Treaty of Versailles as a reason for Nazism and planet War II, they are not called Nazi sympathizers.
Are we so doomed to the authoritative version? It is worth trying to realize the historical context of the current conflict utilizing inactive available data. Earlier I quoted old comments from The Guardian, which in 2014 predicted what the continuation of Western activities in Ukraine could be.

Putin speaks 3 years after the accession of the Baltic States – erstwhile russian republics bordering Russia – to the Alliance. The West degrades Putin and Russia, ignoring their legitimate concerns.

The text published on the Kremlin's website on 29 November appears more than a year after president Dmitri Medvedev first formally raised the issue. Speaking in Berlin in June 2008, Medvedev said the fresh pact was essential to yet update the Cold War arrangements.

A Lost Chance
Former Israel p.m. Bennett Says US ‘Blocked’ His Attempts at a Russia-Ukraine Peace Deal Bennett says the US and its Western allies decided to 'keep striking Putin' and not negotiated by Dave DeCamp Posted on February 5, 2023 Categories: News, Tags: Israel
