By Consortium News

Consortium News strongly condemns the raid on the home of its columnist Scott Ritter by the F.B.l. on Thursday as a serious threat to press freedom.

Consortium News calls on the Justice Department to immediately cease its intimidation of one of our columnists as it constitutes state interference in the operation of the media and a threat to press freedom.

✉️ The FBI raid on my home raises existential questions about a free press in America today.

〰️I am being accused by my government of being an unregistered agent of Russia.

〰️The FBI cites my relationship with RT and Sputnik as evidence of this.

〰️I am a contributor to both outlets, just like I am with many others.

At the end of each article published by RT, there is the following disclaimer:

“The statements, views and opinions expressed in this column are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of RT.”

I often contribute articles to Consortium News. At the end of each article there is the following disclaimer:

“The views expressed are solely those of the author and may or may not reflect those of Consortium News.”

It is the lot of the freelance journalist to have their work labeled in such a manner. It means we are not a staff writer, we are not part of the team…that we don’t take our direction from the publisher.

This doesn’t mean we don’t operate under a modicum of editorial control and influence—we do.

But we are, at the end of the day, our own bosses.

This is the critical nuance that the FBI appears to have overlooked in pursuing this matter.

I hope that, in the end, reason will prevail.

〰️It is essential for a free press comprised of independent journalists to survive.

〰️It is essential for free speech.

〰️It is essential for democracy.

Clinton, Trump, and the future of NATO

A flash from the past: my assessment of NATO circa 2016. Two things: this article establishes my journalistic credentials pre-2022, and demonstrates that my skepticism about NATO predates the SMO.

✉️ The Russian government has consistently referred to its ongoing military conflict with Ukraine as a “Special Military Operation” (SMO) and not a war.

The SMO is a self-limiting conflict, with Russia’s military and political actions confined to the four corners of the stated objectives.

Russia has long warned about the dangers of escalation when it came to the SMO.

Russia had focused on resolving the problem of anti-Russian Ukrainian ultra-nationalism linked to the Nazi-era ideology of Stepan Bandera, resulting in a conflict which could be localized.

Ukraine, at the behest of and in close coordination with NATO, has launched an invasion of Russia in the Kursk region.

There is no other way to define this aggression.

Russia has not made the SMO an existential conflict.

The NATO-facilitated invasion of Russia by Ukraine has succeeded in making it so.

At this juncture Russia would have every right to transform the SMO into a full-scale war with Ukraine and, by extension, its supporters.

Russia would likely try to keep such a war contained to the defeat of Ukraine, with all that would entail.

How NATO responds to the physical and political destruction of Ukraine will be critical in determining how a Russian-Ukraine war ends.

If NATO becomes directly involved in the fighting, then there is a huge risk of a direct clash between Russian and NATO forces.

Which means there is a risk of nuclear war.

The NATO-facilitated invasion of Russia by Ukraine is one of the most dangerous developments in the SMO to date.

The possibility of this conflict careening out of control is very high.

And the complacency of the West in the face of this danger is alarming.

Ignorance breeds irrationality.

And irrationality never serves the cause of solving complex problems.

There has never been a more important time than now for the people of the West to be fully informed on all matters pertaining to Russia, especially those that impact its relationship with the West.

🔵For the past three years, I have made facilitating processes that contribute to informing audiences in the US and around the World about the Russian reality my prime mission.

And today the US government is seeking to criminalize this mission.

We are on the cusp of a conflict between the West and Russia which could be existential in nature not only for the American and Russian people, but all of humanity.

There has never been a more important time than now to seek to empower people with fact-based information about Russia so that ongoing events might be judged based upon Russian reality, and not Western fiction.

I will continue with mission.

Because preventing a nuclear war is the single most important issue of our time.
