I DID read your piece and thus I am not surprised that your rebuttal is so weak and resorts to reducing my arguments to that “Russian propaganda” trope.
In turn I am guessing that you skim-read my response — and thus ignored the evidence for the USA planning to control Ukraine from 2014 at the very least.
The Nyland/Pyatt phone call is pretty clear evidence.
Here is the transcript:

There’s also Political Science Professor John J. Mearsheimer’s talk — from 2015! ! — that spelled exactly out how the West was playing this game with Ukraine.

I realize that these facts and realities may put a crimp in your rediscovering your Ukrainianness, because the history of that region is not as simple and easy as waving a blue/yellow flag and cheering on the very real human boys to kill and be killed.
The USA thumb is big on the scales — not even caring how it impacts Europe and the rest of the world — sending billions of dollars of weapons (nothing more than profits for the weapons manufacturers and the military-industrial complex) under the pretenses that it is there because it cares about democracy.
Simply look at the USA history of regularly overthrowing democracies and invading countries and you can see through the façade to the War Racket underneath. It’s all about power and money – as always.
More from Major General Smedley Butler from 1935:“At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War. That many admitted their huge blood gains in their income tax returns. How many other war millionaires falsified their tax returns no one knows.How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle? How many of them dug a trench? How many of them knew what it meant to go hungry in a rat-infested dug-out? How many of them spent sleepless, frightened nights, ducking shells and shrapnel and machine gun bullets? How many of them parried a bayonet thrust of an enemy? How many of them were wounded or killed in battle?”
Laurence Fink, billionaire businessman and CEO of Black Rock investment management corporation already meeting with Zelensky to “rebuild” Ukraine. Our weapon $ales will keep the war going on and on — more destruction happens every day — and then the USA can jump in and make millions more rebuilding it. You can always trust the USA. God ble$$ America.
