    Where’s the lie?

    The point is there is a difference between defending allies at their request and invading a country unilaterally.

      Where’s the lie?

      Characterizing is geopolitical adversaries as “brutal dictators”

      Characterizing color revolution as “popular revolution” or “civil war”

      Characterizing grinding Ukraine to make the bread for a proxy war as “defending an ally”

      Like I said, you’ve made it obvious you’ll accept any US State Department narrative at face value without giving it a moment’s critical thought.

        Bashar al-Assad was a brutal dictator.

        Ghadaffi was beaten to death by his own people.

        The Ukraine war continues because the Ukranians refuse to cede their country to an invader. Nobody is forcing them to fight.

          Yes, the US State Department and CIA are very good by now at stirring up a color revolution. That doesn’t make their claims about the targets of their operations accurate.

          You’re only proving my point that you’ll happily take the Imperial narrative at face value.

            I provided proof. Either you provide proof supporting your point or shut up.

              You provided billionaire-funded western narratives, that’s hardly proof.

              Quality of Life in Libya crashed after the US led color revolution

              https://www.counterpunch.org/2015/10/20/libya-from-africas-wealthiest-democracy-under-gaddafi-to-terrorist-haven-after-us-intervention/

              https://afrolegends.com/2026/02/06/libya-under-muammar-gaddafi/

              I could do the same for the others, but let’s see if you even read those links and address what they say, or just dismiss them because they contradict the imperial narrative and therefore must be propaganda.

                Al Jazeera is a billionaire funded western narrative?

                Meanwhile Counterpunch is a Russian propaganda outlet.

                https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CounterPunch

                Edit: Also Afrolegends cites it’s sources from an article from a blog called Eurafrica which has no citations or sources for their info.
