He’s innocent and it’s all America’s fault.

That’s the basic theme of the televised address Russian President Vladimir Putin gave earlier. And as much as I’d love to say he’s totally full of it and the United States played no role in antagonizing the conflict, I can’t. Putin made some good points. That does NOT justify invading Ukraine. As I’ve said many times, he had the threat of invasion as the ultimate card to use in order to keep Ukraine out of NATO. Instead, he thought he’d blitz the nation and do it the “easy” way.

None of this has been easy for the people of Ukraine or troops on both sides.

The points that he made that were logical were focused on the initial antagonizing by the West. It has been clear for years that Ukraine was being used as a pawn to lure Russia into conflict. Whether the intention was for all-out war or just to keep Putin nervous about having an enemy at his borders is unclear, but I wouldn’t put it past the warmongers and military industrial complex in Washington DC to be willing to pull Russia into a war that would eventually bring us into the fight.

He also noted that the way western corporate media and Big Tech have handled the situation is disgraceful. Sites like Facebook allowing for calls of violence against Russians is a clear indicator that there was only one narrative that was allowed, truth be damned.

As for sanctions, he said that the U.S. and our allies represent a minority of the world’s population, most of which has not issued sanctions against Russia.

Don't agree with war if we can avoid it but its really clear that the West has been antagonizing Russia for the last ten years as more nations that border Russia are joining NATO and the first thing we do is setup missile batteries along the border with Russia. The Minsk agreement that was signed in 2014 and 2015 prohibits this activity by the West but its being ignored and now we have a fight in Ukraine as President Putin finally put his foot down, that they would no longer tolerate this ongoing intimidation. So basically as Putin said, we in the West are an EMPIRE OF LIES. I don't like the sound of that but its TRUE. We never keep our word in these agreements with Russia. While we were participating in wars and attempting to overthrow leaders in countries like Syria, Afghanistan, Iraq, Lybia and Egypt, how many nations did Russia invade under Putin? Of course its the Deep State doing it using America to fulfill their agenda, but all this could have been avoided if our politicians were not so corrupt.

Theoretically speaking, I just wonder how Washington DC would like it if the Russian Federation installed missile batteries on the Canadian border and at the Mexican border? It would be considered really OFFENSIVE by most of us in the US, so then why is it okay to do it to the Russian Federation? My two cents.
