Ok, this is starting to make sense now. This is from left wing Jimmy Dore and and even has Noam Chomsky (he makes some sense). This war didn’t start this week. This war started in 2014 when Obama overthrew the Ukraine govt.
Remember that poll that was up here where everyone thought Putin was just messing about? Yeah, a few of us didn't, and he isn't. There is much more to this whole thing than any of us know.
I watched the full 27 minutes of Putin's address to the Russian people. It was painful, but I made it through. What I learned is that he isn't forking around. The video had plenty of propaganda in it, but it also held a history lesson from the Russian viewpoint. Needless to say, it does not mirror the west's history. You could tell that the loss of the Cold War is still raw for him too.
Putin says he is tired of having a US puppet right next door to Russia. He is tired of the US running everything and doing whatever they please, including fixing and controlling the commodities, banking, trade markets, and making a huge mess of the world.
He is tired of US "Wokeism" and that he is tired of the US trying to push that kind of culture onto Russian youths. (He was very, very, adamant about this part.) He says twenty years of negotiation has produced nothing but false promises and that NATO continues to push closer and closer to what he calls Sovereign Russia.
The end of the video contained the warning that I posted here a billion pages ago. He said any interference would be met by the worst thing in that nation's history. I thought initially that he was taking about a nuke strike, but after watching him and thinking on it for awhile I really think he is talking about an all out cyber attack, and or, a nuke. A nuke's capability is well known, but a perfectly executed cyber attack could be even worse.
