Question.

How is that statement even possible when no matter what the incident alleged against Russia is, they have at least three different stories of how it went down?

Surely Russia cannot be doing anything other than lying two different ways out of three?

Take the rocket attack on Odessa as an example. Russia

1. Military reported they did it
2. State officials went on social media, celebrating it
3. Military then contradicted their own story
4. Media issued denial and said it hadn’t been struck at all
5. New narrative: Russia did it, but had hit a Western arms store
6. Second new narrative: they hit a Ukrainian naval vessel
7. Diplomats denied Russian origin (when talking to Turkey)
8. New story emerged: maybe the Ukes did it?

And that’s not even every permutation of the story coming out of Russia.

Come on. At least half of those have to be lies. They can’t possibly be so incompetent as to not have a clue who launched what, and where at, and why.

That routine’s as old as the hills. They did almost the same thing over MH17. So much so that the same newsreader on the same day as announcing that Russia shot it down, went on air in the exact same clothes and make-up saying that the Ukes did it.

Maybe outright lies aren’t so bad if you make it so bloody obvious that you’re lying that people cannot take you seriously...

Sorry, still don’t trust Zelensky, Biden, SOROS, Clinton, the Democrats, the Marxist MSM, EU politicians, Romney, etc.

They are congenital liars and they’ve been lying all along about this conflict.

And while I don’t believe Russia has clean hands in this conflict, their tract record is still better in terms of honesty, than the other side.

Interesting, you claim that confusion and contradiction in news stories and quotes from Russia prove that Russians are lying, and you say that every Russian is allways fully informed and in-the-know about everything that goes on in Russia and the Ukraine war.

Yet you accept the exact opposite in Western Media, Government and Citizenry.

False news stories are "Unintended Mistakes", "accidental misquotes", "Unfortunate Misunderstandings", "Out of the Loop, "Not Privy to Secret Information", or Kept In The Dark For Security Reasons".

You accept White House press secretaries explanations of what Biden meant immediately after him saying the opposite on air.

You accept any meaning whatsoever assigned to Kamala Harris' word salad jumble.

You accept any excuse the Western Sources give for inaccuracy or lies, but Russians must be perfect every time they speak.

Even when translated by Yahoo.
