I just don't like Russia attacking neighboring countries. It is a hard habit to break unless you stop it hard and violently.

Edward Snowden says he spoke with him on the phone from Moscow prior to this death (where Snowden is an asylee from political persecution by the U.S. regime), and Ellsberg said - under the brigandish D.C. cartel - there was now a 1-in-10 chance of nuclear war.During the course of our hour- and-20-minute interview, Ellsberg contended America still runs a “covert empire” around the world, embodied in the U.S. domination of NATO. He believes Washington deliberately provoked Vladimir Putin into invading Ukraine by pushing its seat of power eastward toward Russia’s borders; that the mainstream media is “complicit” in allowing the government to keep secrets it has no right to withhold; and that any notion Americans are ever the “good guys” abroad “has always been false.”
“Democrats in this area are as shameless as Republicans,” he says.

Come off it Saxi, we'd already agreed previously in this thread that they were never enemies or even at odds.

When a prominent American politician who recently crossed the president dies in a plane crash it's just an unfortunate accident. Even when it keeps happening. And keeps happening. And keeps happening.

Yes, all the reports I've seen say his name was on the passenger list, rather than he was on the plane. All the news sources are a little sceptical.

Personally, not believing it. Fits the playbook too well to be true.
Then again, it does clean things up nicely for Putin. You can't ask a dead guy questions

You haven't explained how any of these "crossed the president". Carnahan was on good terms with the President as far as I know. The other three I haven't heard of, but none of the articles you've cited mention any major conflict with the Prez.saxitoxin wrote:When a prominent Russian politician who recently crossed the president dies in a plane crash it's the result of a sprawling plot to deep-six Putin's enemies.

Stevens had just had a federal corruption conviction overturned after its was revealed the FBI had concealed evidence.

https://www.voanews.com/a/report-ukrain ... 15086.htmlReport: Ukraine May Have to Delay Salaries, Pensions Without Foreign Aid
Ukraine's government faces the prospect of delaying pensions and salaries for public servants if crucial Western financial aid is not approved soon, Deputy Prime Minister Yulia Svyrydenko told the Financial Times on Wednesday.
Kyiv has poured all its revenue into defense since Russia's February 2022 invasion, relying on foreign support to cover everything from pensions to social payments.
