All lies, all the time reflects longstanding MSM editorial policy on nations free from US hegemonic control.
During Trump’s tenure, China was in the eye of his regime’s storm.
Since undemocratic Dems usurped power by brazen election fraud, Russia became hegemon USA’s main target of choice.
For months ahead of and since Russia’s special military operation began in Ukraine, MSM editorial warfare on the nation escalated to an unparalleled level against any nation throughout the post-WW II period.
If words could kill, MSM press agents for diabolical US interests would be serial killers — the likes of which never existed before.
A daily war of words onslaught continues against Russia by MSM across the board.
No Big Lies are left behind, new ones invented daily — based on talking points supplied by US/Western regimes.
Leading offender in print NYT never misses as opportunity to miss an opportunity to set the record straight about Russia’s special military operation.
Big Lies and mass deception are featured instead. Some examples:
“Russian artillery…destro(yed) (Mariupol’s) basic services (sic).”
No Russian air, ground or naval strikes occurred against Ukrainian civilians or nonmilitary infrastructure.
What the Times knows it consistently suppresses.
“Vicious street fighting rages in Mariupol (sic).”
The Donbass city has been illegally occupied by Nazified Ukrainian battalions.
The campaign to liberate it and its people is proceeding as planned.
Fighting is mainly between Donetsk and Lungansk freedom fighters against US/NATO supported Ukrainian neo-Nazis.
Russian forces are providing ground and aerial support.
Occupying Ukrainian troops are on their back foot, steadily pulling back.
So far, around 58,000 city residents were safely evacuated from the city through Russian established humanitarian corridors.
On Friday, Russian General Mikhail Mizintsev said the following:
“From the platform of the Russian Joint Coordination Headquarters for Humanitarian Response, we are warning the whole civilized world, international organizations, and first of all the UN, the OSCE and the ICRC.”
“You should expect new crimes with grave consequences for civilians and further attempts to blame it on indiscriminate strikes by the Russian Armed Forces from these notorious bandits who have entrenched themselves in Mariupol, maddened by hopelessness and the absence of any prospects for the future.”
None of the above was reported by the Times.
Instead, it quoted Big Lies by US-installed puppet Zelensky, falsely claiming heavy Russian losses, “14,000 corpses and tens of thousands of wounded” — presenting no evidence because there is none.
What the Times calls the 2014 Maidan “revolution” in Kiev was the Obama/Biden regime’s coup — what replaced democratic rule in Ukraine with Nazi-infested fascist tyranny.
What the Times call “annexed” Crimea ignored the overwhelming will of its people to join Russia — expressing it by what independent monitors called an open, free and fair referendum, reflecting the popular will.
Cheerleading the supply of more heavy and other weapons to Ukraine for prolonged war by the Times ignored the greater price of reconstruction to pay ahead when Russia triumphs.
WaPo featured op-ed rubbish by extremist neocon Senator Marco Rubio.
Accusing China of involvement in what’s going on in Ukraine was a bald-faced Big Lie.
WaPo knows it, but featured his rubbish anyway.
His op-ed included an array of China-bashing Big Lies, ones indisputable evidence long ago debunked.
Notably he turned truth on its head by calling the Sino/Russian alliance “a growing threat to the US and freedom worldwide (sic).”
Their alliance for peace, stability, and cooperative relations with the world community of nations according to the rule of law poses a significant “threat” to the diabolical US drive for global hegemony.
CNN gave US war secretary Austin a platform to lie and mass deceive viewers about Russia’s ongoing campaign, failing to explain that it’s going as planned.
At the same time, he noted added US military support for the coup d’etat regime, ignoring its illegitimacy, and failing to explain 8 years of Pentagon/CIA orchestrated and directed aggression by Kiev on Donbass.
AP (fake) News falsely claimed that Russia now seeks “reduced” goals in Ukraine.
According to noted military expert Andrei Martyanov on Friday:
“We are witnessing a US foreign policy debacle of unimaginable scale.”
“But considering what passes in the US for Russia ‘strategy,’ I have to point out yet again the fact that the US establishment has NO understanding or knowledge of Russia.”
On Friday, Vladimir Putin spoke to around 100,000 Crimeans in the Russian republic.
He came to commemorate the 8th anniversary of its liberation from Nazi-infested Ukraine — at a time when his approval rating is 79.6%, based on polling data reported in mid-March.
Rejoining Russia by Crimeans at long last also corrected a post-WW II mistake.
Martyanov stressed that individuals in the West who think Russia is intimidated by freezing of its assets should think again.
Retaliation is coming. On arrival “it will hurt like hell Western financial system” — notably by increasingly bypassing the US dollar in oil, gas and other international trade.
China, Russia and other nations are rising in political and economic prominence on the world stage — while hegemon USA grows increasingly weaker by paying the price of imperial arrogance.
