It is important to know what the enemy believes, whether you agree with it or not.
I'm sure historians can refute details, and even allowing for events seen differently from a Russian perspective, it's a well written speech, coherent and better than anything I've seen from the WH for a long time.
There are many things to ponder. Just don't swallow it whole.
I wish Putin didn't have to start a war to be heard.

OTOH, many of the depraved elements of the West were promoted by Kremlin led Commies for decades. I'm sure Putin knows this, that's why he doesn't want it in his own country.

Good points.

I was aghast at the ferociousness of censorship when the Ukraine war started. What are the US press, and tech cabal trying to hide? Censoring Russian content from search engines?

We'll make up own own mind, thank you, smucks.
