“Defend Sevastopol.” Vassily Nesterenko (2005). By Jacques Baud / The Postil This is an excerpt from Colonel Jacques Baud’s latest book, The Russian Art of War: How the West Led Ukraine…
This is a detailed study of the two-year old conflict in which the West has brutally used the Ukrainians to pursue an old pipedream: the conquest of Russia.
I'm sorry, but you've immediately lost me here. This is such an utterly delusional statement.
Ukraine does not want to be conquered by Russia. Ukraine does not want to be controlled by Russia. Ukraine does not want to be part of Russia. They have made this abundantly clear.
To claim that "The West" has "used" Ukraine in any way shape or form in this conflict is to utterly ignore what the vast majority of the people of Ukraine have been overwhelmingly saying. At no point has Ukraine said "send us less munitions, give us less training, give us less support." They have begged us for more assistance.
So where the fuck does this asshole get off telling the people of a country under threat of foreign occupation that black is white and up is down?
Edit: Nah, I'm not fucking done with this. Do you have any idea how disgusting this is, to tell a people fighting with everything they have, for their lives, their families, their freedom, their sovereignty, that they're only doing it because we told them to? What kind of fucking infantilizing, egotistical bullshit is this? What kind of shitty-ass self-aggrandizing narcissism does it take to believe that the people of an entire nation have no will or desires of their own and just do whatever we tell them, because we're so special and important?
