This is Christianity, Judaism, and Islam without russia weaponizing them against each other.

Once you understand how much damage russia has done to world, you will understand that Ukraine's fight is your fight.

A harsh truth: the strain is on Ukraine

A flagging economy, circling rivals and unpalatable peace proposals are putting President Zelensky under enormous pressure. Winter is full of foreboding

Trump doesn't need to be a direct Russian asset as per the Krasnov narrative. He's so stupid that does it all on his own with a nudge here and there from Moscow at arm's length.
