as long as we are in a crisis, war, covid, we accept the mediocre in power more easily

I dont think it is a coincidence that this Ukraine racket instantly became the new toy right after Afghanistan.

[marcusjackman]

Its amazing how easy it is to make regular people go along with war and to make them cringe at the idea of peace. Its insane.

[PerceivedREALITY]

NATO is not a defensive alliance. They illegally bombed Yugoslavia (direct violation of the UN Charter). We must never forget what they did to Afghanistan, Libya, Iraq, Syria etc.

Peace in Ukraine means no money train for the globalists.

The British ruling establishment have hated Russia for 200 years at least, John Stuart Mill wrote back in 1836 "the real cause for increasing British military budgets was that Ministers are smitten with the epidemic disease of Russia-Phobia." This was 17 years before the British 'INVADED' Crimea. Britain along with the USA tried 3 times to invade Russia after the 1918 revolution between 1919 and 1922. At the end of WWII when Russia (Soviet Union) had almost single handedly defeated the German 3rd Reich on behalf of the West (Soviet General Zhukov said "The West will never forgive us for saving them) Churchill wanted US president Truman to attack the Soviet Union! Move along around 70 years and the UK who orchestrated the 2011 war on Syria on behalf of the Empire were furious when in 2015 Putin stepped in and destroyed Britain's plans, this is why the Salisbury poisoning false flag was created. The British hatred for Russia and all things Russian seems to be in their very DNA.

Russian President Putin once said, and I quote "When It Comes To Propaganda, You Can't Compete With the United States".

The corrupt people are afraid to be exposed.

[DonaldMahalic]

To quote Gerald celente: "when all else fails they take you to war" .

[pjconey]

Because they would have to face their own populations and
try to explain their own inadequacies and failed economies.

[jomorim]

Without war, European leaders are unable to hide just how incompetent they are. I imagine it's something similar for other leaders... That, or money.

[Dodo-ymcc]

Colonial attitude is strong among European elites

Thank you for mentioning Jeremy Corbyn - he was genuine, honest and compassionate… and therefore had to go. Tragic for humanity that the British public lapped up the lies about him and then spat him out. How different the world would look if he’d been allowed to become PM!

[PerceivedREALITY]

Russia is not our enemy. Greetings from Australia.

CONFLICTS AND WARS HAVE BEEN THEIR BREAD AND BUTTER 😂😂

[terintiaflavius]

Fun facts for all the blueanon's: Russia supported the American Revolution, Threatened Europe with full scale war if they took the Confederate side in the civil war, were one of the first to offer sympathy after 9/11, donated a giant memorial sculpture for 9/11.

[azeez]

Aaron Maté is 100% correct about Bernie Sanders.

[indigo]

Because they would all be proven wrong.

Let all those who ever claimed that the power of women on the world stage would be a wiser and more peaceful influence upon humanity, rethink their ignorance! 😊😊😊

[HaHaHa-mtdi]

I ask myself this question many times - how Europe and specially Germany can be so stupid?
