All month the Western media has been on a crusade against Russia. What was it this time another one of Hillary’s lies? No, she did get caught blue-handed spying on the Trump campaign, something she accused Russia of doing to her. But that’s not what the recent rhetoric has been about. Biden picked up right where he, Obama and Hillary left off in 2014 after their coup in Ukraine. The press echoed Biden’s words that Russia was going to invade Ukraine on Feb 16th. Many added that Russia “annexed” and “invaded” Crimea. That is not what happened. Kiev outlawed the Russian language which is what people speck in Crimea. They held a referendum and voted overwhelmingly for secession. Not a shot was fired. There was no invasion. Crimea went back to being Russian. It is a little hypocritical for the West to lose it over annexation when they finance Israel’s increasing annexation of the West Bank and Jerusalem. They also support the Kurdish annexation of northern Syria and supported the same in Iraq. Of course nothing happened on Feb 16th other than Ukraine shelling separatist areas.

That will give you a great background on it all and if you don’t have the time at least watch Ukraine in 60 seconds. They can’t deal with Syria until they deal with Russia and the way to handcuff Russia is Ukraine. Obviously Biden’s family has profited from the Oligarchs.
Russia stopped the evil empire in it’s tracks in Syria. However Economic sanctions on Russia could reopen the door for imperialism in Syria. And we have another Assad gassed his own people moemnet or Babies on Incubaors moment. After there was no invasion on Feb 16th something even the Ukrainian presidnet didn’t expect would happen, Ukraine started shelling Donetsk and Lugansk.
Interestingly a kindergarten was hit by a single grenade.
If you were to google about this now all the Western press would say it was hit by Russian separatist. But that is not how it was reported initially and they are also leaving out the fact the Donbas was being shelled by Ukraine. Early on the morning on the 17th Ukraine violated the 2015 Minsk agreement 15 times.
“Units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine on Thursday fired at the areas of nine settlements of the Donetsk and Lugansk people’s republics for two hours. According to the representatives of the republics in the Joint Center for Control and Coordination of the Ceasefire Regime, about 160 ammunition of a caliber of more than 12.7 mm was fired.
On Thursday morning, the representations of the Donetsk and Luhansk People’s Republics at the Joint Center for Control and Coordination of the Ceasefire reported heavy shelling from the Ukrainian security forces, including from heavy weapons.”
In fact Bojo went as far to claim the kindtergarden attack was a false flag
[Boris Johnson has said a reported attack on a kindergarten in Ukraine was a “false flag operation designed to discredit the Ukrainians.”
The Prime Minister added: “We fear very much that that is a thing we will see more of over the next few days”.]
They were expecting more of it. They didn’t even try to say they thought it was an Egyptian ship. It all looked like Ukraine did it since they started the shelling and it matched their weapons fire. But you see that was because the Russians were doing a false flag to make them look bad. This was all hyped up before it was done. The narrative switched later to just saying Russian separatist fired a single grenade at a school. Because that make sense right? You are a separatist group facing war so the most effect thing you could do is fire a single shot and aim it at a children’s school in your own area. Right and then they took the babies out of the incubators threw the babies on the cold floor.
Ukraine kept firing missiles for days. On the 19th they shot of hundreds times into the breakaway areas. After all that will really de-escalate things and make them want to stay with Ukraine right? Of course Donetsk fired back. They didn’t just fire back with artillery but with a political shot. Donetsk which had already been trying to separate since 2014 see above, voted again for independence but this time the Russian Duma held its own vote as well. Both passed with near unanimous consent.
All of that lead to this: Putin recognized the independence of Donetsk and Luhansk
And then the UNSC put on this pathetic performance.
Jump to 1hr to hear Ukraine followed by Russia. The rest say exactly what you would expect them to say. They blame it all of Russia. Not a single state acknowledged or addressed the fact that Ukraine started shelling the separatist regions with heavy artillery. That is something that never happened in Crimea. The Ukraine ambassador called Russia a virus that has no cure. Great way to star a negotiation.
Try to imagine if Russia had taken the bait and started to shell Ukraine. Well it would be the same as it is now because they are being blamed for that anyway even though they have not fired a shot. Donetsk and Luhank fired back after Ukraine with is new UK and US toys started bombing them first.
They are really playing with fire here. Ukraine cannot win a military confrontation with Russia They can not win in the air or the ground or in the cyber theater. But that is not really the point. Ukraine is not acting in its own interests. It is a Western puppet regime the the whole point is to create a pretext to allow more sanction, sanctions that will cripple the EU economies as well. Their publics would not put up with it without some kind of stunt. Nord Stream 2 could not be allowed and it looks like the fallout is already starting to happen
“Oil and gas prices spiked and stocks were rattled as the prospect of war in Ukraine inched closer. Russian provocation led Germany to today pull the plug on the planned Nord Stream 2 pipeline, which would have brought more natural gas supply to Europe.
The UK, US and EU have all promised sanctions that are likely to cut Russia further off from the world after Putin sent troops over the border. Moscow’s main stock market dropped as much as 5% today, with volatility elsewhere.
The threat of sanctions has stoked fears that the Kremlin could retaliate by choking off oil supplies to Europe.”
Europe needs to realize that America is not your friend. They didn’t care about the refugee crisis created by the war in Libya and Syria. They don’t care if you lose oil and gas from Russia. This si a win/win for the USA plutocrats as they economically cripple two competitors the EU and Russia and sell weapons to Ukraine. It is not good for the common consumer as gas will continue to go up, on top of the Biden inflation that has already devastated so many.
What can be done? Truckers? Yes and no. You don’t need to go to the capital and get arrested over nothing on March 1. All you need to do if you are a trucker is nothing. March 1 stop delivering goods. Stay home watch a a game. A general strike is all we need. No war in Ukraine!
