Many people suffer from (good vs evil) for them Ukraine is good and Russia is evil. Then they have a hard time believing the good guys can do anything wrong.

This is mostly clear when we see how it took Eroupe about 2 years of genocide to somewhat realize Israel is the bad guy, but then they got stuck because it is also clear USA is a bad guy.

If you step out of this narrow point of view, you can clearly see that, Ukraine has always been intended to be a buffer zone, the one who benefit from that are mostly military complex and contractors. They don’t care about human at all. That’s why these news are expected.

Why assuming he was played? The action the administration took to make this happen was too extreme to say “he was played”

The money all the rich made with market manipulation doesn’t indicate he was played.

Everything point at him and his groups to be actively benefiting from this situation.

Western “civilization” reaction to Israel and Russia are amazing. If this were Russian we will see these war crimes in every media 24h , while with Israel, you get arrested or questioned for denouncing the crimes.
