Wikileaks cable from 2008 suggests the US KNEW that flirting with NATO membership for Ukraine🇺🇦 would split the country, cause a civil war and may cause Russia🇷🇺 to intervene

While Russia has the blame for an illegal invasion, the US bears blame for goading Russia into reacting?

As thousands of anti-war demonstrators took to the streets in Russia🇷🇺 to protest the invasion of #Ukraine🇺🇦, thousands were arrested by the police.

Russia's interior ministry said police had arrested around 3500 people, the independent OVD-info group puts the number over 4300.

‘We are friends with Russia and we are also friends with America; we are friends with China and with Europe; we are not in any camp’

Wars shouldn't happen in Europe, only in 'uncivilised' countries in the global south according to the media. Some 'uncivilised' countries attacked by US & NATO countries:

Iraq🇮🇶: Home to the world's first cities. Innovating writing, agriculture & governance (10,000BC-3000BC)

Syria🇸🇾: Its capital Damascus is the world's oldest continuously-inhabited city, inhabited from as early as 10,000-8000BC

Afghanistan🇦🇫: Settled in 50,000 years ago, it is home to the world's earliest farming communities and the world's first oil paintings

Ukrainians🇺🇦 in Kherson hold a rally in defiance of Russian🇷🇺 troops occupying the city, 13 days into the invasion.

"The only thing that can provoke Russia into a hostile and vigorous response is the expansion of NATO to the Baltic states."

-Joe Biden as a Senator in 1997. Why identify a danger and its violent consequences, and then actively seek to try and make it happen?

'What we've seen...is that Putin is willing to engage in hideous amounts of violence...we need some kind of negotiated settlement and that likely involves...a commitment that Ukraine won't join NATO'

-Prof. James Robinson of the Uni of Chicago
