The corporate media says Putin wants to take over the world, and Trump says Zelenskyy somehow managed to trick the US into supporting him — but the reality is that NATO’s long-term strategy of expansion towards Russia’s borders made war inevitable.
The only REAL path towards peace is the abolition of NATO!
NATO is an offensive imperialist empire not a “defensive union”.
NATO has attacked many countries under false pretenses. Recent examples are Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya. And arguably Palestine since NATO’s supply chain is used for Israeli weapons.
This is not to absolve Russia of any blame but let’s not whitewash NATO.
