To a hammer, everything looks like a nail. To an empire, everything looks like a crisis to justify a multi-trillion-dollar military-industrial-security complex as dictatress of the world. The crisis du jour for the American empire is Russia‘s aggression against Ukraine. The political establishment and the mainstream media assign responsibility to President Putin’s megalomaniac ambition to recreate the Soviet empire. Ray McGovern and John Mearsheimer shoulder the United States with a fair share of the blame: the never-ending expansion of NATO cheek by jowl to Russian borders provoked the invasion; Russia fears nuclear weapons on its borders as more menacing than the Cuban Missile Crisis was to the United States. Ray and John offer some thoughts regarding how to bury the hatchet and move forward.
Someone in front of me in the Post Office yesterday was complaining about the price increase of stamps. The clerk eventually blamed Putin :-)
lol - how did you not laugh out loud?

‘endless wars,’ ‘carnage by whatever methods’ are the means to their ends... you could tell they were salivating about this for a long time
