1919-2019: UK still involved in anti-Russian campaign after 100 years
(This tells us that the old Cold War was basically a sham. Russia's great 'crime' is that it exists. In the last hundred years, the only time the Western elites weren't regarding Russia as an adversary, or potential adversary, was in the period when the neo-liberal drunkard Boris Yeltsin was in the Kremlin, handing out state assets like confetti to Western-sponsored oligarchs, and acquiesced while NATO destroyed Yugoslavia.)
That took the work of typing right from me. But let me add this. It has never been about Russia as it says, but about people ruling over themselves for themselves. Same goes with Venezuela. It can not be allowed for a system based on a stronger socialistic nature to flourish, showing the entire world what they are missing outside of a capitalistic ruling system of vast inequality. You must be controlled and suppressed to labor slavery for the western elites benefit. And information ignorant via their main stream media tool that they also own. Let this sink in for a moment. 1919 - no nukes----2019 - they are willing to risk nuclear confrontation to keep that control. And they have basically threatened to do so in certain ways.
mustard gas didnt exist in 1914. the 1860's saw the invention Gatling gun. In the 11th century cannons didn't exist. There are many, many more examples of things invented just to kill or seriously maime people (land mines) usually in ever increasing numbers. 'Leaders' using military superiority to intimidate or control a polulace - there own or someone elses - is hardly news.
