I explicitly said Putin and his oligarchs were to blame, but apparently you are incapable of reading. What I have pointed out is that by siding with Boris Johnson you are not opposing Putin you are enabling him, just like during World War I. Hence the meaning of Paul Valery’s quote.

And of course the main culprit for the situation in Palestine is the British Empire with its divide and conquer logic, opposed by Montagu. Just like the situation in India and Pakistan. Don’t blame “bigotry” by ordinary Indian and Pakistani people while forgetting British imperialism.

I blame Joe Biden. You can also give the example of Hitler. I blame the German bourgeoisie and the bourgeoisie in the other countries, not the ordinary German working people many of whom fought the rise of the NSDAP.

I’m talking about the class solidarity between Russian and British capitalists. Dividing working class people by blaming Russian workers is in their interest. That’s why we will never blame British workers for the weapons their bosses supply for the Gaza Genocide. We blame the bosses.

The existence of capitalism has nothing to do with a conspiracy theory. It’s a reality. Russia is capitalist too by the way. We oppose all capitalists and their imperialism instead of siding with our “own” national bourgeoisie.

I have degrees in economics and political science & I have studied the history of the region. So yes to convey my analysis I need more words than the Russian and American propaganda machines. You don’t engage with any of my points so you are just trying to smear the left as pro Russian. We are not.

Because the same class solidarity of imperialist capitalists against working class people is at work in Ukraine today. Johnson was deeply in bed with Russian oligarchs. “War: a massacre of people who don't know each other for the profit of people who know each other but don't massacre each other."

Like the British, Russian and French propaganda machines claimed that the First World War was the result of German agression alone. The reality was that there was class solidarity between German, British, French, Russian imperialist thugs to massacre working class people for profits.

He will not as long as the US empire stands. Otherwise they would have to send over all their former presidents and military leaders.

In other words: everyone agrees that Ukraine is the victim as the country is completely destroyed for the greater benefit of Russian and Western oligarchs and imperialists. I contend that Victoria Nuland, Boris Johnson, and other neocon warmongers are very much not the victim, nor heroic saviours.

There is no “good”, “reconstructed” Western imperialism versus an “unreconstructed” Russian imperialism. Imperialism is imperialism. Bertrand Russell, who was imprisoned during World War I was not “defending German agression” against victim Serbia although this was portrayed that way at the time.

This defies logic. Any war will only end when both parties stop fighting. As soon as one of the parties resumes fighting the other party will retaliate and the war drags on.

As for pressure on Russia, after 20 sanctions packages how is this working and what do you propose?

Those leftists are so irrational aren’t they? Where would they have got the idea that the West has been engaged in economic warfare, political engineering, invasions and genocide for the past centuries? If this were true Piers Morgan would’ve told us, right? Right???
