Yet - the truth is soo obvious and soo simple... The original modern sin is -- Russia-gate hoax.
SAME lying team that concocted the Russia-gate hoax and 2014 bloody coup that overthrew democratically elected Ukraine government Jake Sullivan, Hillary strategy advisor had a KEY role in launching Russia-gate hoax – he is now national security advisor to Biden.
SAME people that launched the Russia-gate hoax are now hollering that Russia invasion of Ukraine is "imminent". All to "save democracy" there -- in order to distract from the fact that St. Obama organized in 2014 bloody coup against democratically elected Ukraine government. St. Obama installed Biden and his CIA pal Brennan as de facto governors of Ukraine -- immensely enriching US "elite" and posting and removing government members, judges and heads of industry with billions of corrupting cash -- in "fight against corruption".
US War party’s key exports are – coups, wars and all-encompassing US corruption.
We agree on NATO expansion and on invaluable Mearsheimer. Russia's security concerns and explicitly stated "red lines" are completely ignored by the US War party and its corporate (state) media stenographers.
US State Dept. is full of anti-communist apparatchiks who didn't notice that capitalist Russia has not been Communist for 30+ years.
But, of course, the Russia-gate hoax is also a huge factor – SAME lying team is in power.
But -- remember many Ukrainians greeted Germans -- after the starvation genocide (6M dead) of "kulaks" (peasants) by Stalin. Yasha's title -- Vicious cycles is very appropriate...
Russia's paranoia/distrust of the west and need for respect ("saving face") could have potentially been handled diplomatically (via the Minsk framework?), but Biden's typical american arrogance/ignorance/disrespect was seen by Putin as a provocation.

I was just making a very short summary of a semi-long conversation that went into all sorts of details, including the 1990 blunders (which I'm assuming had some connection to the Bosnian/Kosovo wars, which were also USA blunders).
I have no idea why you are using shitty rhetoric like "we both know".... followed by meaningless, vague drivel.
OPINION. When/if the facts come out about what actually happened, they will likely show that Biden and his handlers:
1. stupidly failed to use good diplomacy, thus provoking Putin (who is sounding and acting crazy) and
2. benefitted from the "wag the dog" thing. Biden's gross political failures get covered up by this war, and
3. the D-party establishment becomes more aligned with the defense industry, taking their campaign contributions (look into Schiff's ties to the military-industrial-complex?) and setting up god knows what other corrupt scams.
One would expect the MSM to conveniently overlook the US sponsored coup that put a Ukrainian 'ultranationalist' regime in power. Much of what passes for the Left and Alt Media in the US has drunken the Kool-Aide of US exceptionalism and have joined in the choruses of jingoistic nonsense about what is in 'Russian DNA'.
The term 'ultranationalist', when it rarely emerges, is a bit of a coverup: The ultranationalists revere their NAZI collaborator grandfathers, have elevated the collaborators to the status of 'heroes of the nation' and have sought to eliminate all traces of Russian culture and language. Such elimination would be a real victory of alchemy, given more than 400 years of cultural intermixture and marriage.
I was trying to figure out the Max Blumenthal thing (I saw a link to a MB spotify video, but the spotify app is horrible, IMO). Can you clarify when the Aaron Mate / Blumenthal video was? Thanks
I have had some problems listening to podcasts on Spotify, with an iPhone, after I started using a VPN, which I can not turn off on my iPhone 8.
I took a while to find a viable link. Listen on a computer with a decent connection, I did not try my phone, though that might work, because the phone would be using wi-fi from my router and not Verizon at home.

They are still at it and going strong
Main take-away:
Russia's paranoia/distrust of the west and need for respect ("saving face") could have potentially been handled diplomatically (via the Minsk framework?), but Biden's typical american arrogance/ignorance/disrespect was seen by Putin as a provocation.

Any mention of whether or not the fascists were involved in opening up the fire-fight?
Dripping with bizarre propaganda narratives is "good"???
