Now this is something I watched today which I think would have been taken of youtube super quick before. I know both of these people well - not personally though!!
If you want an introduction, below. If not go straight to the video
Key points. Brand wants to know why we are only given one side of the story
Blumenthal says we need to look at why there is a war which has been going on for 8 years. About 30% of Ukranians who are Russian Speaking have been disenfranchised, had their language stripped, been attacked, shot,, jailed and threatened by the Regime in Ukraine which was installed by a US assisted coup since 2014 and now are being tortured, disappeared and kidnapped inside Kherson because they are suspected of Russian sympathies. You will remember there were only 16,500 in Kherson went the Ukrainians got in. He said 80,000 had been evacuated to Russia as they would be the target of Ukrainians.
He describes how Ukraine is no more of a Democracy than Russia. How Zelensky has got rid of all opposition. There are articles on that at
Grayzone. He describes the NAZI influence. He points out that this treatment of Russia Speakers are what the Russian Speaking Ukranians have had to put up with since 2014.
Something he says which is not reported in the US Media so people know nothing of it unless they go and find out. Brand is trying to find out why people are not told.
He said the reason is so that the American public don't start questioning where their money is going to and some $80 billion has gone into the coffers of Ukranian war lords, into arms dealers and into the contractors in one of the biggest money lending since Afghanistan.
I shouldn't say much more but it is excellent. You will also find reasons such as money laundering for the war which the American people would not support unless they believed they were being the good guy helping the evil.
