"..some commentators in the West wanted to find a scapegoat for Ukraine’s suffering. Rather than focus on Russia, they set their analysis on the country some of them always have a knee-jerk obsession with: Israel."

POST #10

The fault is with Russia & only Russia.

Why didn't NATO....
Why didn't Biden ...
Why didn't Israel...
Why didn't Germany...

Why did all these the blamers help elect Donald Trump? The fate of Ukraine was apparantly already laid out, with the only thing left to fulfill Putin's wishes was the seating of Trump.

Get the US out of NATO
Destroy Ukraine.
Who helped set this unholy act of treachery in motion by seating Trump?

Its an easy answer really. We all watched in horror as it went down.
2016 was the ballgame.

Israel isn't the problem. But Israel is the scapegoate for Media to run with because they surely cannot blame Russia.

Highly unlikely. Russia has their own software for spying and hacking. We do know the FBI has it JohnSJ Apr 2022 #5
