No, it's true because it's true.
We provoked the entire conflict, because it was our desire to hold a proxy war in Ukraine with Ukrainians being the fighters. They mistakenly believed they could put the economic screws to Russia, but the screws are being applied to us. Not only has Saudi Arabia refused to renew the petrol dollar agreement. BRICS is gathering steam and gaining momentum.
The U.S. dollar has been significantly compromised and is now truly a fiat currency. There is nothing backing it up at all, while BRICS is trying to create a currency that is gold backed, and many nations are climbing aboard the BRICS bandwagon.
Even the IMF is now chastising the U.S. for being so financially irresponsible & delinquent. Time to start seeing that the reason we are in perpetual never-ending wars, is because the military industrial complex is an ideal way to fleece the national treasury. It's been used to enrich a lot of Democrats, as well as, RINOs.
I was referring to us using the term “unprovoked” to describe the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
Of course it was “provoked” by us.
—We basically installed a BS government in Ukraine after we sponsored a revolt and over threw a government (Maiden).
—We withdrew from the Ballistic Missile Treaty, which has serious ramifications if Ukraine is in NATO.
—We were in violation of Minsk and were arming, training, folks in Ukraine using foreign forces we had in Ukraine. We were allowing mercenaries to flow into Ukraine and more or less paying for these!
—We continuously try to violate Montreux (but the Turks don’t let us).
—We lied about NATO East expansion and then pretend like we didn’t lie.
Yet we keep repeating this narrative of Ukraine having been attacked without provocation.
Listen to this guy, he’s outright funny: https://www.armstrongeconomics.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/Lloyd-J.-Austin-III-on-Putin.mp4?_=1
—How long have we been in Iraq? 21 years, and we invaded under false pretenses and have been asked to leave about 20 times... and here we are talking about “illegally occupied Ukraine.”
—He of course uses the term “no provocation” and “unprovoked” regards Russia invading Ukraine.
—He uses the terms “annex, sovereign,” talks about “behavior we don’t want to see” (because we decide what is right and wrong), “erase borders, unjust, illegal, invasion.” Literally, all you have is a bunch of slogans strung together. Not one argument is made. Using emotionally laden words, this appeals to feelings but is a non-argument. He should have been laughed off the stage. I would have laughed at my kids if they were to try to argue like this when 12 years old.
