I was looking for the territorial Russiisn gaind in November and I fell into a propaganda shithole called the Institute for the Study of War, ISW, lead for a certain Kim Kagan and with David Petraeous in the board of Directors. I had never found such a density of lies and rabid hatred to Russia backed by so much financial means. The figures as well as the human rights narrative are ridiculously inverted. One has the impression of reading somekind of terror gothic novel in which Putin is a mix of Vlad Teppes, Anibal Lecter and Medusa. It is the poison lab where the outlaw fascist western ring get their lies, the alchimical destilation of AIPAC and the Pentagon combined. With such a bunch of poisoners targeting Russia, world peace is very very far anywhere. Concerning Russia they are focusing on the supposed Ukranian children kidnapping and forced adoption scheme. Russia would also be trying to repopulate Siberia with Ukraniann POWS (gulag, Stalin...) Finally, Putin would be preparing an re-educational brainwashing of the Ukranian population by means of the Orthodox Russian Church and systematic torture. To refute and debate this slanders would be like breaking down the dismembering of Kashoggy in a live show, tasteless, repulsive and ultimately counterproductive. A professional intoxicator cant be fought on his own terms. But the Russian narratives will need to counter the western presssure to install in the peoples minds this new Russian black legend.

Thanks very much, Karl. Your quick post with Putin's actual words is essential information in understanding the enormous volume of commentary on this, mostly "disinformation".
