do you think a war is happening in Ukraine? Do you think Russia has invaded the country? Do you think they are rolling tanks into cities and towns and firing those tanks?Or, is the entire war in Ukraine just made up news from nefarious US government agencies? I don't know how to respond to this and am unclear about it's relevance. I almost let it drop without a response but that too would be rude so figured what the hell. I think I get it though, let me try. Is the Easter Bunny real? Do you believe in Santa Clause? How about the moon, Blue cheese or just moldy Gouda? I'm going to bow out now, this is going nowhere and has gone on too long already. All questions rhetorical.

Consider yourself like Will Smith then = insulted. Actually, I'm taking in the totality of news from individuals as well as news agencies all over the world. I'm certainly not "taking information from and accepting at face value" from our government liars alone. It's insulting to suggest that I am. You have obviously not taken in the totality, or you would have listened to and read the translations of Vladimir's reasons for Russia's military action in the independent countries of Luhansk and Donetsk, and elsewhere in Ukraine to defend them. What you write looks very like excerpts from USA propaganda. Don't you wonder why so many obviously intelligent, reasonable and well informed people here have quite different points of view fom you and the CIA, Biden, Boris, Nuland, and co-conspirators? Without asking Google, please give Putin's expressed reasons for the intervention. You should have them at your fingertips. Mqurice
