No doubt we’re expansionist and succeeding in tearing what once were Warsaw Pact nations, Soviet Republics, or nations in the Russian sphere of influence (historically allied or aligned with Russia but not part of the Soviet Union or Warsaw Pact) under our control.

Name one nation whose territory American has annexed. Just one.

Britain, France, Belgium, Netherlands et.al. have all relinquished their empires. The USA voluntarily gave the Philippines full independence after WW2. Only Moscow refuses to accept that the era of empires is OVER, and demands to re-construct theirs by force of arms, at the expense of the peoples who were finally freed in 1991.

This of course means nothing to Putinskis. As far as Moscow is concerned, might makes right, period, end of story. Has been so since the Mongol period ended. Which is why western nations oppose Moscow, why NATO was formed, why NATO still exists, and why even more nations in your vicinity have asked to join NATO since 2022. ASKED to join. The NATO charter does not allow it to force itself on anyone. (Another lie Moscow keeps promoting....that NATO was expanding itself into Ukraine. Any and all contacts with NATO were/are at Ukraine's instigation. Had to be. The events of 2014 and 2022 confirmed their fears. And everybody else's.)

Many FReepers seem unaware that our CIA helped overthrow Ukrainian leadership in preparation for the current war in the Ukraine.

2 days after the CIA's overthrow of the Ukraine began, Putin annexed part of the Crimea. You always act there's no provocation, no reason at all, which provoked Russia to respond.

In 2010, the Ukraine's "parliament passed a law banning Ukraine from joining any military bloc, effectively banning it from entering NATO though maintaining opportunities for cooperation. According to a poll conducted by Pew Research Center the fall before, just over half of Ukrainians disapproved of NATO and the idea Ukraine might try to join, while just 28% approved." source

ransomnote: Since the Ukraine moved to prevent NATO membership, the US CIA overthrew the Ukrainian government  (start of that 'revolution' was February 18, 2014). With (CIA) help, NATO was now in control of the Ukraine, Russia responded by annexing part of Crimea Feb 20, 2014 – Mar 21, 2014  and in May, two more reagions of the Crimea voted for independence to escape the NATO controlled Ukraine, at which point Western Ukraine began shelling Eastern Ukraine in hopes of killing off ethnic Russians among its population and rebels who support Russia. Nobody likes to talk about Eastern Ukraine shelling western Ukraine.

Ukraine: Widespread Use of Cluster Munitions

Government Responsible for Cluster Attacks on Donetsk

(Berlin) – Ukrainian government forces used cluster munitions in populated areas in Donetsk city in early October 2014, Human Rights Watch said today. The use of cluster munitions in populated areas violates the laws of war due to the indiscriminate nature of the weapon and may amount to war crimes.

During a week-long investigation in eastern Ukraine, Human Rights Watch documented widespread use of cluster munitions in fighting between government forces and pro-Russian rebels in more than a dozen urban and rural locations. While it was not possible to conclusively determine responsibility for many of the attacks, the evidence points to Ukrainian government forces’ responsibility for several cluster munition attacks on Donetsk."

"The NATO charter does not allow it to force itself on anyone."

HAHAHAHAHA! Right! They use carrot and stick techniques and CIA manipulation. You know, 'standard operating procedures'. NATO doesn't want nations it takes over to be 'rescued' and it doesn't want a bad reputation as it tries to lure other nations, so it has to look voluntary.

Deep State messaging helps to panic smaller nations into the fold by warning about RUssia while NATO tightens its grip and continues to hunt more nations.

News Flash - NATO is not trustworthy, and lies as much as Brandon does.

Zeepers usually conflate the USSR with Russia to justify it's hatred. You are the first to blame it on The Mongol Period!

Brandon was installed, in part, to handle the flow of money to NATO. The WEF, UN, WHO and NATO are not just 'accidentally' trying to take over the world.
