I had thought that although there was little public awareness or accurate media coverage, that there was a factual consensus that after the 2014 coup, the Ukrainian government and "right wing" (Nazi) militia's began a military assault on the eastern Russian oriented people's. This escalated into a civil war against "separatists".

But I just heard a think tanker on BBC present what I thought was this consensus history exactly backwards: that following a democratic election in 2014, Russia "stole" Crimea and had armed "separatists" and stoked attacks on the Ukrainian people and government. Now, Putin was expanding the war he began in 2014!

Total Twilight Zone.

Brits do what they do best - lie big. Zionists learned all their methods while taking over Palestine.

Goebbels was impressed: "The essential English leadership secret does not depend on particular intelligence. Rather, it depends on a remarkably stupid thick-headedness. The English follow the principle that when one lies, one should lie big, and stick to it. They keep up their lies, even at the risk of looking ridiculous."

Unfortunately, your point is obscured by reading the Goebbels piece: “The wheel of history can not be held back, not even by Mr. Churchill. In his more rational moments, he probably realizes that he is fighting for a lost cause, that his time is past, that he has no hope of catching up.” Propaganda doesn’t require facts, just assertions for a gullible population.

Exactly. British elites realised how inbred and stupid they were becoming about 150 years ago and opened the doors to their society to more cunning and venal elements of the non aristocratic classes to create a kind of new moneyed hybrid elite which included American industrialists and of course eager Zionists. The average brit upper class twit is a well remunerated front for a ruthless transatlantic elite
