If it would not be for the US most Ukrainians still would have a roof over their heads and sleep in their own beds and this war would be over by now. Probably the eastern portion of the Ukraine which has a large portion of ethnic Russians and was constantly assaulted and antagonized by radical groups would have been annexed by Russia and things eventually would have settled down.

The only difference would be if Ukraine returns to Russian guidance as it has been previously for four hundred years would be somewhat less corruption and most of the radical elements would be wiped out.

The same goes for Europe if they had not jumped on the US bandwagon. The US purposely damaged the gas supply lines making sure that Europe in general and Germany in particular remains dependent on the US like a colony, just in case they may come to their senses and change their mind.

Those days when Russia had any ideas of expansion are long gone and over with and things of the past as Russia has more than enough and then some on its plate to take care of. All they want is a quiet neighborhood without NATO or CIA manipulation and intervention. Just like the US likes to keep their backyard free of any intruders, as expressed in the Monroe Doctrine. But the warmongers within the US government along with their associates and friends keep egging them on, knowing that a peaceful coexistence is bad for the production of war materials, especially the military industrial complex as well as the globalists, cranking out wartime supplies like there is no tomorrow and if they keep it up there may not be one. So, they keep stirring the pot until it will boil over and it isn’t too far from doing just that.

That isn't what Putin's hand picked spokespeople say. Are they liars?

Oh here we go with the typical blame America BS:

"If it would not be for the US most Ukrainians still would have a roof over their heads and sleep in their own beds and this war would be over by now. Probably the eastern portion of the Ukraine which has a large portion of ethnic Russians and was constantly assaulted and antagonized by radical groups would have been annexed by Russia and things eventually would have settled down."

Aannnnddd more blame America BS:

"The same goes for Europe if they had not jumped on the US bandwagon. The US purposely damaged the gas supply lines making sure that Europe in general and Germany in particular remains dependent on the US like a colony, just in case they may come to their senses and change their mind."

So what evidence do you have Skippy that the U.S. "purposely" damaged the lines?

Russia had 100% control of all the access points to the pipeline.

Russia had the most to gain politically and economically from these pipelines being shut down. 1.) They divert the gas to domestic use. 2.) They disrupt the economies of countries that have not only condemned the Russian invasion but are actively sending supplies to Ukraine. 3.) They can place the blame on the U.S. as a means to drive a wedge between us and our allies.

Putin throws the switch to shut it down, there would be massive condemnation from the EU, and public opinion would be against him for leaving millions in the cold. He has it blown up, uses his global network of useful idiots to spread disinformation claiming the West blew up the pipeline.

This is a classic example of Maskirovka which is the Russian doctrine of military deception. The doctrine includes strategic, political, and diplomatic means including manipulation of "the facts", situations, and perceptions to affect the media and opinion around the world, so as to achieve or facilitate tactical, strategic, national and international goals.

"Those days when Russia had any ideas of expansion are long gone and over with"

Wow, you just wake up from a 10+ year coma or something?

Your boy Putin has been on an expansion spree for the better part of a decade, and has been boasting over the past several months that EVERYTHING that was once part of the old "Russian Empire" will be once again be part of said empire.... Which means he wants Alaska too stupid.

But by all means keep on being the pathetic little blame America first loser that you are.
