Introduction – April 5, 2022

We are now being inundated with stories about alleged Russian atrocities but note that none of reports, some of which are linked below, actually investigate those claims. The allegations are simply repeated with Russia’s culpability implicitly assumed.

This isn’t journalism. It’s propaganda, pure and simple, and it’s intended to prepare us psychologically for a military confrontation with Russia. Because make no mistake, that’s what is planned.

This means that Western MSM journalists are no longer impartial observers in this conflict. They are, in effect active participants, helping to guide public perception so that we see Russia as our enemy.

For example, as several observers have pointed out, Russian troops withdrew from the outskirts of Kiev last Thursday, March 31. Yet despite this we didn’t hear about Russian massacres in Bucha until Sunday morning.

So for two whole days after the Russians had left the town on the outskirts of Kiev there were no reports of Russian atrocities. If nothing else this should prompt questions about the MSM’ narrative of events.

Why did we hear nothing about bodies on the streets of Buchas for two whole days?

Well now this rather obvious anomaly has been conveniently removed with the aid of satellite technology. Because according to no less than BBC fact checkers, bodies littered the streets of Bucha before the Russians left the commuter town on March 30. Although Western media reports argue that this debunks Russian claims of a “staged atrocity”, they fail to say how the dead were killed or provide a shred of evidence that Russians were actually responsible.

Nor do the photos show anything more discernable than blurred blobs, which could be anything from dead dogs to abandoned domestic debris. And that is without even taking into account the possibility that they may have been digitally altered.

Nonetheless, the Western MSM is unanimous in its condemnation of Russia for its part in the alleged atrocity.

As far as this writer is concerned, that makes these “journalists” culpable for whatever ensues. Because, whatever happens, we suspect that this in preparation for a much wider, more devastating conflict. The MSM is preparing the way for this so knowingly or not these journalists are stoking the fires of conflict.

Just look at some of Tuesday morning’s headlines:

The horrors of Bucha: mass graves, bodies ‘left to rot in bags like rubbish’ and the 89-year-old shot dead in bed

Will Putin ever be held responsible for the atrocities we’re seeing in Bucha?

Russia leaves a trail of atrocities in Ukraine

FT.com – April 5, 2022

Bodies lying in the street, many apparently shot at close range, some half-incinerated to try to cover up the traces; civilians in mass graves, their hands tied behind them. As with much else about Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, the atrocities being reported in Bucha, just outside Kyiv, call to mind some of the darkest moments of Europe’s history.

You get the picture. It’s no longer Saddam Hussein or President Assad or even Hitler who is the enemy. Now it’s President Putin and the Russians. The powers that control the MSM and Western governments – and maybe Moscow too – want us to view things this way so as to launch a massive, global depopulation campaign.
