NATO Expansion East Towards Russian Border Provoked War - UPDATED!
NATO Expansion East Towards Russian Border Provoked War - UPDATED!
A valuable history lesson...
Russia has been invaded from Europe three times via Ukraine, the latest being WWII where most every town from the Russian border to within 15 miles of Moscow was destroyed creating a path of destruction 280 miles long costing 27 million lives. By comparison the United States lost 58,220 troops in Vietnam. Russia has reason to be very sensitive about protecting its European border.
When the Soviet Union collapsed NATO made a deal with Russia. If they withdrew, handing us East Germany and East Berlin, NATO could never expand to the East and under no circumstances could NATO forces enter Ukraine.
Not only has NATO expanded East but the Obama and Biden Administration both dangled the NATO membership cookie to Ukraine after repeated warnings from Russia not to do so. Is the word of the United States now meaningless? How are we to have any diplomatic credibility when our government breaks its solemn word?
Those who know some history understand that the United States did not tolerate Soviet missiles in Cuba or Russian influence in Central America. Imagine if Russia and China built military bases in Mexico. To say the United States would be a “hard no” on the idea is an understatement.
We have written several articles how NATO, the “uniparty”, WEF, neo-con, and military industrial complex have been pushing for war with Russia for a variety of reasons. We are not claiming that Putin is a “good guy” by any means. That said they have their own legitimate national security concerns just as we have.
The PDB Podcast reviewed this clip from Matt Lee, the wonderful AP Diplomatic Correspondent vs. John Kirby, the Biden appointed Pentagon Spokesman.
NOTE: We do not agree with everything PDB’s guest is saying, but on NATO he makes some accurate points:
Dan Bongino points out that Deputy Secretary of State Victoria Nuland is the chief war architect provoking this entire situation. Both President Trump and RFK Jr. have called her out by name:
UPDATE - The Biden Administration has landed a B-2 Stealth Bomber, a first strike nuclear capable weapon, in Norway very close to the Russian border. But the Pentagon will insist that is perfectly innocent and not provocative at all. These warmongers are fools - LINK.

Remember:
Dude he’s interviewing is a dumbkof, BARELY educated idiot who clearly doesn’t understand the Minsk agreements, previous treaties nor the mind of Putin himself. “Send in the clowns...don’t bother, they’re here.”
