Open Source “Journalism” is not journalism. Bellingcat is one of the most well-known mouthpieces of US and UK intelligence agencies. 

I suggest you read Seymour Hersh’s assessment of the NordStream explosion and even furthermore his coverage of Syria

Open Source (ISW ) is compiling public data and creating a battlefield assessment and predictions... not sure why you are trying to make it journalism... well aware of bellingcat and if the silly FP article is all you have... erm...ok...

Love Seymour Hersh... he created a perfectly plausible Tom Clancyesque scenario without a shred of actual proof yet knows full well the West will deny it... lol... certainly sells papers...

In a boat at sea one of the men began to bore a hole in the bottom of the boat. On being remonstrating with, he answered, "I am only boring under my own seat." "Yes," said his companions, "but when the sea rushes in we shall all be drowned with you."

Also, here is a narrative that hasn’t been brought at all since the invasion of Ukraine by Russia.  We impeached our last president because he knew our $500M was going to a bunch of corrupt politicians under auspicious circumstances. Furthermore why does nobody seem to recall the alleged “Whistleblower” in that impeachment was Ukrainian national who could have been getting paid off for all we know.

Awesome... Putin invaded Ukraine over 500mil... are you serious?

Also, you say Putin lacks a sense humanity, please feel free to watch Zelensky’s response to fresh water supplies being cut-off to Ukrainians living in the Crimea peninsula.  Again, this video is Zelensky’s response to fresh water being cut-off to Ukrainians.

You do realize that the video was shot in 1995...

Perhaps the BBC is a news source more to your liking...

Now you are just deflecting which is cute.  Zelensky would have 17 years old in 1995, that video is from 2018.  The mention of Trump is to remind you that we’ve had arms deals with the Ukraine’s long before this invasion.  We were in fact provoking this proxy war for years.

How about that... we both had the dates wrong... it would have been long before the conflict or before he was president. Get real.

Zelensky, in 2015, made fun of the people in Crimea suffering from water shortages when he was a “comedian”.

We have been bound to protect Ukraine... read up on the Budapest memorandum where Ukraine gave back to Russia the third largest nuclear arsenal abandoned by the soviet union. European nations AND Russia pledge security guarantees to Ukraine in exchange for the arsenal.

Clearly Russia cannot be trusted and we will soon find out it the West can be trusted to uphold agreements...

I never said he made that video as president. However, I clearly see in this video how a fully formed adult chose to make jokes about his “own people” not having access to fresh water.  Zelensky is a puppet and the people of Crimea are not treated like Ukrainians. Crimeans are treated like shit by Ukraine and deserve to be liberated at this point.

They have been "liberated" since 2014... what does that have to do with this new invasion which you apparently support?  Unbelievable....

Another state-led terrorist attack on a key piece of infrastructure would suggest otherwise.

Rofl... if you're referring to Putin‘s bridge...legitimate target.  In case you missed it... Russia has been performing much more agregious terrorism for an entire year.

I am sincerely shocked at your blatant and open support for Putin and his attack... I really didn't believe the Trumplicans could sink so low... but after their January 6 treason I now know they can and do...

No, the only people who are finding new lows are the progressive left who have abandoned any semblance of an anti-war faction.  I couldn't give two craps about Trump and him losing an election.  However, I bet you keep a picture of Liz Cheney's dad in your wallet, because those are clearly your people.

This little screed literally could have come verbatim from some of the left wing enablers of Putin. The horseshoe theory at work.

Anyone who's really against war and escalation should be celebrating the defense of Ukraine. For pennies on the dollar, NATO is containing one the single most dangerous regimes on the planet and kept them from invading further countries, which absolutely was coming next and absolutely would have led to a full blown war with NATO.
Do you believe that when the blue jay or another bird sings and the body is trembling, that is a signal that people are coming or something important is about to happen?
