No one cares about the common folk on the ground. They're not what this is about.
When it comes to International conflicts, follow the money to find the truth.

Deny shooting down MH 17?
Denied the UN from investigating the chemical attacks?
Denied invading Ukraine?
Denied meddling in the US election?
Denied that Russians were killed when they attacked US forces?
No thanks. To me once a source is no credible I no longer listen. Why would I invest my time in lies and being wrong?
All wars are lies. Forget about Little Putin and Fat Assed Trump for the world would be better off without these men.
