    American veteran writer Noctis Draven - "Ukraine and the West are extremely concerned about Russia's reaction to the Moscow massacre. The truth is that Russia treats Ukraine with caution. Russia has 100 times more power than it used against Ukraine. Russia has so far considered the situation in Ukraine as pest control. Moreover, the pest was Zelensky belonging to the West and his Nazi army. When dealing with pests, you don't burn down the whole house, you expel the pests. The West is concerned that Russia will not be able to hold back for long if there is an escalation like the Moscow massacre. It won't take Russia two years to destroy Ukraine. If she wanted to, then in two weeks Ukraine would have turned into a history lesson for Eastern European children. It would be a crater in the ground."

      No, the US started it in 2012 when Obama/Biden/Nuland stages a coup with the help of Georgian snipers and authentic Nazis that ended democracy and a war when the Nazis tried to invade the Donbas region. Russian speakers were stripped of all right so they could not vote, all broadcast was changed from Russian, a language everyone knew to Ukrainian which was spoken mostly in the west where there was less population. Russia did not enter until 2022 when the newly independent LPR and DPR had legally declared independent and 17,000 Russian speakers has been murdered in the east. Almost all the war has been east of the Dnieper River which is legally Russia.
      Everything you have been told by the media and US is dead wrong, completely fabricated but so has every war or invasion by the US. Just since 2000 the US has staged coups or invade 202 times and not one was reported honestly.

      Russia is more pure democratic than any NATO country
      In a typical federal election there is no barrier to running, the 40 main parties plus individuals can run without any money. All candidates get free equal broadcast airtime and all are invited to nationally televised debates. The second most popular party is the oldest Communist Party because the elderly still favor communism but everyone else prefers one of the liberal democracy parties so the main difference is specific policies. Putin has won due to every person you talk to agrees that their lives and the country has improved every single year, the only country where the people actually see increases in rights and services. The people hating Russia have not been to Russia, know only western claims about it
      It is safe, very low crime, has more access to culture than any country on earth, great free medical care, very low cost of living, great cheap public transportation so it is faster getting somewhere then driving, 58 min paid vacation days, no taxes.....sales tax is included in the listed price, nothing is deducted from the payment for work, the employer pays the tax, long paid family leave, grants to buy larger homes if they are having a baby. Most people over 20 own their home clear of debt, twice the percentage of population with college degrees than the US, and no debt for university, police who do not kill people, the last time police killed anyone in a country of 150,000,000 was 4 years ago. Crime is so low that in 2017 73 prisons were closed due to lack of inmates. All the 200 native ethnicities that make up the population get a long, no homelessness etc. Doctors even do house calls, free. It is very easy and cheap to start a business. The population is highly educated and highly cultured, healthy and if you have ever seen a Russian woman and don't fall in love, check your pulse, you are clinically dead. If you see someone fat or badly dressed, you know they are tourists
