One of the unfortunate realities of the foreign policy debate in America is that few Americans are paying much attention. This general level of public ignorance makes it much easier for the American foreign policy elites to then feed the American public whatever lies suit the regime’s agenda.
This has certainly been the case with the US’s current proxy war against the Russians in Ukraine. In the early months of the 2022 Russian invasion there was seemingly no end to the regime’s spinning of wild yarns trying to convince us that Putin is the new Hitler, that Moscow will soon re-create the Soviet Union, and that anything short of the US launching World War III is akin to “appeasement” in the style of Munch, 1938.
The propaganda of the NATO OTAN group about currert events may not be taking into account the realistic geopolitics that the Russians are engaging in. They are looking for a stasis of the situation with the world powers, protecting themselves from what they view as aggressive action on NATO OTAN’s part.
