Ukraine needs to be helped but I hate the CIA habit of “secretly helping”, it got us everything from Saddam Hussein to Operation Condor fo the assassination of Patrice Lumumba.
Won’t be surprised if in 20 years time we learn that it was more “secret helping” that got Ukraine invaded in the first place.
I wouldn’t be surprised in the least if the CIA cooked up an invitation to invade Ukraine as a way of expanding NATO membership. They are completely capable of throwing away millions of civilian lives if it meets their end goals. It would hardly be the first time.
It’s crazy what a law unto themselves they are. Even with little things 5-Eyes seem to really like creating chaos.
I was reading about Shamima Begum the other day (UK girl who joined IS to be “married” to a stranger at age 15 and had her citizenship taken away) and it turns out the main guy who trafficked the bunch of 15 year olds to Syria in the first place was a 5-Eyes Canadian asset.
You don’t have to wait.

They’ve just confirmed themselves that the reason that Russia started the war for has been legit and justifiable all along. As well as the words of Russia which has said this dozens of the times.
Better off and easier for Putin, from now on.
First off, no they haven’t lmao
And second, even if it were true, that totally justifies genocide? What about all the other countries that Putin is eyeing next?
Gaza, a literal genocide, documented for the world to see: DON’T WORRY GUYS NOTHING TO SEE HERE
Ukraine, an overt military action, but for which civilian casualties have been remarkably restrained (in comparison to Gaza, in comparison to Mosul, even in comparison to Iraq): GENOCIDE GENOCIDE READ ALL ABOUT IT
nice.
For more than a decade, the United States has nurtured a secret intelligence partnership with Ukraine that is now critical for both countries in countering Russia.
Maidan Revolution: February 2014
Today: February 2024
Thanks for the confirmation of what we all knew already: that the US was directly involved in instigating and supporting colour revolution in Ukraine to counter Russia.
Yeah, that’s not what it said. You are making a connection that is not there and repeating a putinist talking point.
You can’t create what isn’t there. There’s a whole history of political abuse that festered. The CIA capitalized on that, they didn’t just waltz in February 2014 and say: “How about let’s have a revolution, eh guys?”

Looks like OP addressed that too
…this a link to a comment you posted, not OP, and it’s linking an article that is specifically telling the tale of the CIA’s complete failure to instigate a revolution from nothing
They are still the bad guys.
Yes, the US has never not been the bad guy.
