US And UK Escalate Russia War Fever, But NATO Splits Over Ukraine EmergeThe US and UK are ramping up threats to Russia over Ukraine by sending more weapons, vowing more sanctions, and lodging evidence-free claims of a Russian plot to install a pro-Kremlin leader.

NATO As ReligionThe US/NATO/Ukraine/Russia controversy is not entirely new. We already saw the potential of serious trouble in 2014 when the US and European states interfered in the internal affairs of Ukraine and covertly/overtly colluded in the coup d’état against the democratically elected President of Ukraine, Viktor Yanukovych, because he was not playing the game assigned to him by the West. Of course, our media hailed the putsch as a “color revolution” with all the trappings of democracy. The post NATO As Religion appeared first on PopularResistance.Org. read more
