i haven't watched tv national 'news' for so long its hard to measure but occasionally i'll stumble across some on the www which shows me that the empire is fully delusional on the ukraine game and that pcr has it spot on here but i wonder what the presentations will be once the russians own ukraine, fully;

Propagandists Have Created a False Picture of the Conflict in Ukraine, Leaving the West Unprepared for the Outcome

 Paul Craig Roberts

For some months I have been perusing David Johnson’s “Russian List,” a daily collection of newspaper and journal articles written by commentators and alleged academic experts.  I must say for the most part the articles are highly unrealistic anti-Russian propaganda.  I have concluded that Russian experts are few and far between in the Western world.  During the 20th century cold war there were intelligent and informed discussions of disagreements about US and Soviet policies.  Today there is propaganda, some of it so absurd that it is laughable. 

Moon of Alabama agrees with me.  On Johnson’s Russian List for January 2 is an article by Moon of Alabama titled, “Lack of Good Analysis Contributes to the Decline of the West.”  It begins: “What really hit me last year was the dearth of correct analyses in main stream media and in politics with regards to the war in Ukraine. Little if anything is based on facts. More than 90% of the published output is propaganda.”

I must say this really resonated with me.  I am just as frustrated.  Steven Cohen must have been the last objective and knowledgeable Russian expert in the US.  

Moon of Alabama quotes a range of “experts” ranging from the Department of War Studies, King’s College London to US commanding generals and a collection of politicians and concludes the pronouncements are “delusional nonsense.” https://www.moonofalabama.org/2022/12/lack-of-good-analyses-contributes-to-the-decline-of-the-west.html#more  ............more.........
