Nailed it. The media, either on their own or on orders from their owners, are trying their absolute hardest to start WW3.

I guess its OK to spread misinformation after all. Why aren't they being labelled as terrorists, and taken off line, like the doctors who give you true data on covid and vaccines?

Woke up and saw MSM coverage of the “Russian missile” killing 2 in Poland, then took kids to private intl school in Vienna and once there we walked behind 2 teenage Ukrainian refugee students, one with 3/4 length fur coat and Gucci bag and the other with gorgeous black Prada boots and a magnificent looking bag and coat (didn’t see the brand). They had exited their Tesla with Ukrainian plates. Walked past shiny white Porsche and a black Range Rover and Mercedes with Ukrainian plates. Then get home and see the headline that Brandon has asked Congress for $37 billion more for Ukraine. Every day just feels like a giant FU to normal people.

The media never did cite their sources on those seizing out dead in the street videos out of China in 2019/2020

That is indeed one of the biggest risks I see in the granting of a Covid Amnesty. We need to hold to account everyone who allowed panic and zealotry to cloud their reason to the point of breaches to the Nuremburg Code. Because if we do not, we are allowing these same, now well-trained, muscles to be exercised in the direction of what could very well be the end of humanity as we know it.

The more substantive issue here is when will European citizens declare they have had enough of the Luciferian cabal that is bent on destroying them? It sure does appear that the number of rational thinking people diminishes daily. At a certain point, it makes more sense to simply work to protect yourself and your family than it does to convince those hell-bent on their own demise that joining a death-cult isn't conducive to long-term health.

An AP photographer helped stage the maternity hospital atrocity hoax. The media is a bad actor in this conflict and we should have a running list of the hoax atrocities and false flags as they keep trying to escalate the conflict.

A rocket from Ukraine….the Ukrainians are to blame! Did they apologize? Or was it done to purpose to get MORE MONEY from Western Governments especially US where Americans are sick and tired of providing money to Monster, demanding Zelensky!

So it's not only a James Bond movie that were living in but Dr. Strangelove too.

"The tyrant must apologise formally, beg for forgiveness on bended knee, so to speak, while armed NATO fighter jets fly around his country."

These people really are barking mad, I don't know how their readership can take this seriously.

Swedish pundits and mainstream media joined in the fun yesterday and today, excaliming that it is Russia's fault anyway, since they invaded Ukraine in the first place, prompting the missiles to be fired at all. Calls for war-crime trials against russian leadership too.

Commenters remarking that if that's how blame is to be apportioned, it puts other conflicts in a whole new light. For a start, we'd have to prosecute the peace prize "winner" Obama for his indiscriminate drone warfare.

This is immediately waived away as "Putinism" and any allegation that it was a ukrainian missile gone astray are labeled russian disinfirmation and conspiracy theories - despite what NATO and Poland has stated.

It simply /must/ be Russia anyway, period.

On the "plus" side, we no longer have to wonder how people could be whipped into war-frenzy in 1914: we've got front row seats to the whole thing from start to finish.

Sure am glad I am on the non-European side of the Atlantic. I seem to recall all the European "leadership" looked down their noses and over their Chablis glasses at Trump and loved it when Biden stumbled into the White House. Trump would probably have tried to negotiate and would have been called Putin's puppet, and of course Biden has decided to fight on to the last Ukrainian but in the end, the result will be the same, Russia will secure the regions they have targeted but with Biden's approach there will be a mountain of corpses.

The tone of the BILD piece is also notable. It sound like something Der Stürmer would have written in 1944. Hysteric, abusive, propagandistic. "Der irre Tyrann"

Unfortunately, at least until the summer this kind of thinking seems to have been very pervasive with German citizens.

However, I am not very scared about a NATO attack on Russia.

Who could do it?

The biggest and most capable NATO army is (was) the Ukraine, which already has numerous soldiers from Poland and the USA actively fighting with it.

What else could NATO throw at it?

NATO is already low on weapons, having send much of our stock to the Ukraine.

The USA has no real groundforce, neither have the British.

Who else is left? Germany's army is non existent. France's is not much better.

The covid propaganda machine is now the Ukraine propaganda machine.

The worst thing about the propaganda machine created by/for covid was that it was self-generating. Different media outlets seemed to compete with each other to see who can spread the most fear. This is so much worse than a government propaganda machine. This is "market driven" propaganda, a competition to see who is "worst" in the sense of "best".

I am trying to remember but I do not think it was this bad around 9/11. Was it?

I remember as a 12-year-old reading my history textbook and wondering how a random assassination of a minor oligarch (Archduke Ferdinand) could really be the cause of a war that killed tens of millions of men. I could not believe the world could be so irrational that it would hurl itself into bloody conflict over so small an incident. Now I think I get it. The media is stupid beyond belief, reflecting widespread stupidity among their readers.

The German media is very brave at barking at things that they’re allowed to bark at.
