Russia was provoked by Washington to invade

Remember when Moscow put missiles into Cuba in 1962? Washington went nuts. Now, Washington has done the same sort of thing to Putin with similar results.

Make no mistake: Washington deliberately provoked Russia into invading the Ukraine. If Russia had meddled in Mexico's internal affairs the way Washington did in Kyiv - and, especially, if Moscow had egged Mexico on to do damage to the U.S. as Washington encouraged Ukraine to defy Moscow - we would be at war with Mexico now.

What is Washington up to? The official rationale is pure hypocrisy. Our bankers and generals have never truly respected other peoples' independence.

Could the dark secret be oil? Biden has managed to kill the Nordstream project, which leaves Germany totally dependent on the Anglo-American oil cartel. One thing's certain: reckless "madman" Putin has plenty of company in the ranks of those who govern America. I fervently pray they won't blow us off the face of the earth.
