"I have stated that the first WTC terrorists drew the Twin Towers with planes going into them in advance of 9/11 in their prison cells. I have also said in conversations with Bill Kristol back in the ’90s that he argued to remove Saddam, Assad, and Qaddafi, and we would bring peace to the Middle East. I told him that would never happen because the region is not divided by the borders we drew, but by religious cultures. General Wesley Clark explains the same thing. Not everything is what it seems.
We did not prosecute Ukrainian Nazis because they also hated Russians.
We have messed up the Middle East all for Neocon aspiration, just as we entered Vietnam, only because we thought Russia was involved, and we were wrong – it was just a civil war."

"Those in the West, like the head of the Institute for the Study of War, General Keane, another hardline Neocon at Victoria Nuland’s sister-in-law’s operation, keep judging others by themselves. They seem to think that they can force political change by armed force, and somehow, the people will rise up against the government to achieve their goal. That’s the same thinking behind sanctions.

Russia’s recent strike on Boeing facilities in Ukraine has been portrayed as an attack on American business.
The strike took place after Ukraine’s massive attack during Operation Spiderweb that destroyed hundreds of Russian drones and 41 war planes across four Russian airbases.
If nations began opening or expanding defense manufacturing operations, say in Iran, then Israel and the US would take that as a sign of aggression, if not a direct threat to national security.
Russia has repeatedly stated Western aggression is escalating tensions and prolonging the war. So not only are the EU, UK, and US sending countless funding and equipment to Ukraine, but private ventures from these nations are developing almost every piece of warfare equipment there.
The target was not America or Germany; rather, the target was defense manufacturing facilities. Several Western arms manufacturing facilities have opened joint ventures in Ukraine. Germany plans to open additional Rheinmetall facilities. Flensburger Fahrzeugbau Gesellschaft is working with a private Ukrainian weapons manufacturer to build a service center in Ukraine.
The Western-backed military-industrial complex has had a stronghold in Ukraine since the war began. These manufacturers were not operating in Ukraine before 2022. Russia naturally has an incentive to destroy these facilities, but that certainly does not indicate Russia is targeting European nations or the US.
