Thank you! for confirming generally what I see from the UK/European/eastern news I follow. Our mainstream news I think is pretty ignorant and petty, filled with election gossip and our-haloes-their-pitchforks, so clearly adolescent. And projection! That 'UNPROVOKED' was a blazing signal pointing back to Nato's pushing east and playing innocent. I'm using some of my time to TRY to catch up with history. Currently tangled in complex west Asia weavings of Jacques Baud's Operation Al-Aqsa Flood.

Hard to credit our smug self-satisfaction. Years ago I used to pester an Irish friend with the question, what does the rest of the world think of us . . . she always avoided answering. Well no more need to ask.
