President of the German Council on Foreign Relations Thomas Enders has since responded by calling for a no-fly zone in western Ukraine, which would most likely lead to direct military involvement by NATO:
"It is time for the West to expose Putin's nuclear threats for what they really are - a bluff to deter Western governments from military intervention."
The Western media constant accusing Russia of intentional atrocities, of targeting civilians and hospitals and murdering men, women and children in cold blood seems meant to incite the public to welcome a major war.
The Enigma of the Lack of a Media Counter- Offensive Focused on US/NATO Wars Having Taken Millions of Lives
Yes, of course, there is no escaping consummate condemnation for the taking of innocent lives during the Russian bombing and invasion of Ukraine, but where has been the reporting of the millions of deaths in Somalia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria caused by US/NATO bombings, invasions and covert funding and arming of terrorist armies like ISIS alongside all the previous slaughtering in the earlier US wars in Asian and Latin American countries?
For example, in the Western media, Iraqi and Afghani lives never mattered because the armed forces of the West was doing the killing and maiming. Ukrainian Lives Matter because Americans are not doing the killing! A USA designated adversary is doing it. But all life should matter! Including the lives of fallen American GIs and most assuredly the many millions of lives Americans took in Asia and Latin America and more recently in the Middle East and Africa, where the US military still at it.
All those millions of men, women and children would have liked to have lived longer than they did.
Tens of millions have grieved over loved ones, whose lives were taken during American invasions and bombings of their countries, but now all media attention is on the heartbreaking and disastrous Russian homicidal invasion and war on the Ukraine, and the shame for which Russians and lovers of Russian culture, music and literature will feel for generations to come.
Right now the world media focus is on Ukrainian lives and the lives of Russian soldiers mattering . Given the human catastrophe of millions of frightened women and children and elderly fleeing from their homes for safety, many of us are wondering why the Russians couldn't have limited their task to defending the Donetsk and Luhansk republics from Ukrainian attacks?
