One of the biggest deceptions in the West is that the US only started "supporting" Ukraine after Russian troops finally crossed the border in February 2022.

The "Unprovoked invasion" line is peddled continually by Westen client Media, so let's have a look at the facts and then decide if Russias actions were indeed "Unprovoked"

The truth is that as far back as the 1940s-1950s The CIA established "close contacts" with the Organisation of Ukrainian Nationalists (OUN) and the Ukrainian Rebel Army (UPA) two groups of brutal Nazi collaborators (now widely celebrated as heroes in Dictator Zelenskys Ukraine) and perpetrators of unspeakable massacres of Jews, Poles and Russians alongside their Nazi allies in WW2

The CIA provided them with weapons, cash, support, and training in an effort to destabilize Ukraine and promote Ukrainian ultra nationalism

Then, In the 1950s, the CIA launched "Operation Aerodynamic", which aimed to support Banderite Neo Nazi networks in Ukraine culminating in 1953 with the CIA creating a special unit called "Unit 2245" to capture and analyze Russian military hardware using the Anti Semitic and murderous Banderites to do their dirty work.

During the 1950s-1960s, The CIA infiltrated Ukrainian ultra nationalists and increased support for their terror operations in Ukraine, these continued up until the 1970s when the CIA conducted black propaganda operations in Ukraine and provided support to anti-Russian groups of any kind, regardless of their methods or penchant for murder and terrorism

Onwards into the 1980s-1990s, the CIA continued to support Ukrainian nationalist groups and provided intelligence on Soviet military activities in Ukraine, attempting to use Neo Nazi groups for sabotage and terror operations in the country.

In the 1990s, with the collapse of the Soviet Union, the CIA shifted its focus to supporting Ukraine's transition to "democracy" and spent hundreds of millions of black money countering Russian influence by funding bribery and destabilising legitimate political groups and media outlets.

2014-present: Following Russia's action in Crimea in response the CIA backed and planned Coup in Kiev, and the subsequent illegal toppling of the legitimate President of Ukraine, the CIA embarked on a complex. And wide ranging involvement with Ukraines feared SBU security service, assisting them in planning operations such as the assassination of unarmed female journalists, the targeting of Russian politicians and officials in Donbas and Lugansk and countless other actions which, if carried out against an American ally, would be immediately classed as terrorism.

So, let's go back to the start.

Could any objective observer, when in possession of the facts listed above regarding Washingtons decades long determined attempts to start a devastating Civil War in Ukraine, consider Russias actions as "Unprovoked"?

The War hungry elites determined to perpetuate the conflict in Ukraine, that their Governments essentially started planning decades ago, rely on your ignorance to prop up their deceitful narrative

Don't play their game.

๐Ÿ”นIn the north of the #GazaStrip, local battles are taking place. Gaza and the surrounding area are being subjected to airstrikes. The Palestinians responded by firing at Sderot, but the rockets were intercepted.

๐Ÿ”นIn the central and southern parts of the Enclave, the situation remains relatively calm despite multiple strikes by the Israeli Air Force. At the same time, the humanitarian situation continues to deteriorate.

๐Ÿ”นOn the border with #Lebanon, the situation is consistently tense despite a slight decline in the number of attacks. The Israeli air force continues to carry out strikes in southern #Lebanon, while Hezbollah has reduced the number of launches.

๐Ÿ”นFrom #Iraq, pro-Iranian formations noted several UAV launches at Haifa and Eilat.

๐Ÿ”นIn the Red and Mediterranean Seas, the Yemeni Houthis from Ansarallah attacked several ships straight away.

๐Ÿ“‹๐Ÿ‡ท๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡ฆโš”๏ธ Two Majors #Summary for the Morning of 17 July 2024; 07:00 (GMT+3)๐Ÿ“

๐ŸŽฏBy nightfall, the RFAF had struck targets in the #Odessa region, one of which was in the area of the town of Belgorod-Dnestrovsky on the banks of the Dneprovskoye estuary.

๐Ÿ”นIn the
#Kharkov direction, the AFU is unsuccessfully attacking in the area of #Volchansk and #Glubokoye, trying to exhaust our defence and push the units of the RFAF to the border. The enemy is using former prisoners as assault meat. Captured servicemen of this category testify to the words of their commanders that in case of a successful breakthrough into our territory, the advanced units of Ukrainian convicts will be given our towns and villages to loot, and terror against civilians will not be considered a crime. The Russian Army is holding back the enemyโ€™s attempts to attack and wearing down the reserves he is transferring.

๐Ÿ”นIn the #Svatovo-#Kupyansk section, the RFAF are advancing on the borders of #Torskoye - #Terny, near #Makeyevka (#LPR), #Berestovoye - #Peschanoye, and are achieving local successes.

๐Ÿ”นOn the flanks at #ChasovYar, there are battles for the expansion of our zone of control, without significant changes over the day. The enemy takes almost no counter actions, holding back our attacks with many drones.

๐Ÿ”นIn the area of #Toretsk (#Dzerzhinsk), the heavy assault on the agglomeration continues. The RFAF are fighting in #NyuYork (#Novgorodskoye), as well as on the #Yuzhnoye -#Zheleznoye line, and at #Kirovo and #Druzhba settlements

๐Ÿ”นIn the #Avdeyevka direction, the RFAF are slowly but inevitably grinding down the enemy defence on a wide front. The central part of #Novosyolovka1st has been taken under control. The front sections at #Novosyolovka1, #Yevgenyovka, #Progress, #Vozdvizhenka, #Novoaleksandrovka, #Karlovka, #Yasnobrodovka and #Umanskoye are active.

๐Ÿ”นIn the #SouthDonetsk direction, the RFAF are assaulting the northeastern part of #Krasnogorovka in an attempt to cut off the enemy garrison remaining in the town and force it to withdraw. Fighting is also continuing in other parts of the direction.

๐Ÿ”นOn the
#Zaporozhye front, fighting north of #Rabotino, Russian aviation carried out strikes with FAB-500s with UPMC.

๐Ÿ”นIn the #Kherson direction, no changes: clashes in the island zone and mutual strikes with drones and artillery. Ours are actively using aviation.

๐Ÿ’ฅIn #Belgorod region, In Belgorod region due to terrorist shelling the entrance to a number of settlements is ๐Ÿ‘‰ closed. A decision has been taken by the regional operational headquarters to strengthen measures to support evacuees. Yesterday, as a result of AFU shelling in the town of #Shebekino and the village of Novaya Tavolzhanka, 4 civilians were injured.

๐Ÿ’ฅIn the #Kursk region, the constant shelling of border areas is also continuing. In the settlement of #Tyotkino in the Glushkovsky district, an explosive device was dropped from a Ukrainian copter on one of the households, wounding a local resident. In Glushkovsky district, a Ukrainian copter attacked agricultural machinery working in the field, injuring the driver of a combine harvester. Also during the liquidation of a fire in #Tyotkino, an AFU copter made a second attack, a rescuer was wounded by shrapnel.

๐Ÿ’ฅIn the #DPR, in the central urban area of #Gorlovka, a man born in 1989 was injured during AFU shelling by barrel artillery. In the Krasnogvardeysky district of #Makeyevka, a man was injured as a result of an explosion of a Petal mine.

๐ŸŽฌ#Kherson direction, works on enemy targets.

๐Ÿ”ดOn the #Zaporozhye Front, without significant changes in the line of contact. In the direction, mainly positional battles with the use of long-range weapons continue. (Fig. 1)

๐Ÿ”ดOn the #Donetsk Front, in #Krasnogorovka there are further advances of Russian troops, the Ukrainian garrison continues to resist, but its situation in the town is getting worse and worse. In #Karlovka, heavy fighting continues at the edge of the settlement and on the bank of the Karlovskoye Reservoir. The assault is being fought head-on, so there are no rapid advances in this area.
๐ŸŸกTo #Novosyolovka1st, the RF Armed Forces managed to extend their zone of control and improve their positions in the area of #Yevgenovka. (Fig. 2)

๐Ÿ”ดIn #ChasovYar Direction, fighting continues in the eastern part of #ChasovYar. Also, Russian troops continue to improve their positions on the flanks. Long range weapons are actively working. (Fig. 3)

๐Ÿ”ดOn the #Kharkov Front, without significant changes in the line of contact. Systematic attempts by the Ukrainian forces to dislodge the RFAF from their positions continue. No significant successes on the part of the AFU.
๐ŸŸกIn the area of #Glubokoye and in #Volchansk, heavy fighting continues. (Fig. 4)

โ—พWho are the powers behind the scenes? They have never really hidden their machinations, Biden spills the beans:

-"It's easy for me, just mostly I've been in and out of Ukraine a lot before the war..."

โ—พ Nevertheless this is something we already knew, George Soros about Ukraine:

- "We have a fund in Ukraine, and it turned out to be one of the best... I also want to mention that there is one person who has been very deeply involved in Ukraine and that is Biden."
