Russia Finally Acknowledges that She Is at War with Washington,D.C. by Paul Craig Roberts!

Today is July 4 when we get our annual dose of patriotic propaganda that serves to wrap us in self-righteousness which enables Washington,D.C. to conduct its wars.

Washington,D.C. has got away with it for a long time, but now has created and brought us into conflict with a powerful adversary.

According to reports, Russia responded to Washington,D.C.s cluster bomb attack on civilians in Crimea by informing Washington,D.C. that the two countries are now at war. What it means, if anything, remains to be seen. It does not seem to have caused any consternation in Washington,D.C..

In actual fact hot war between Russia and Washington,D.C. began in 2008 when Washington,D.C. surprised President Putin by sending a United States trained and equipped Georgian army into South Ossetia.

The American sponsored invasion resulted in the deaths of civilians and Russian peace keepers. It only took the Russian Army 5 days to defeat the American trained Georgian Army, so Washington,D.C. did not have time to get more involved.

President Putin was again surprised when Washington,D.C. overthrew the Ukrainian government in 2014.

Persecution and murder of Donbas Russians followed. Donbas asked to be reincorporated into Russia like Crimea, but President Putin refused.

Instead, President Putin tried to keep Donbas in Ukraine with the Minsk Agreement.

Ukraine and Donbas agreed and France and Germany agreed to enforce the agreement, but in fact the agreement was used to deceive President Putin while the West built and equipped a large Ukrainian army to retake the self-declared Donbas republics.

In February, 2022, President Putin was forced by Washington,D.C. to defend the Donbas Russians from being slaughtered like Israel is doing to the Palestinians.

But President Putin limited Russias intervention in a way that prevented Russia from obtaining a quick victory before Washington,D.C. could get the West involved and widen the war.

Now President Putin is presented with United States missiles targeting Russian civilians and with French troops in Ukraine.

Washington,D.C. has been at war with Russia since 2007 when President Putin said at the Munich Security Conference that Russia did not accept Washington,D.C.s unipolar world.

This challenge to Washington,D.C.s hegemony put crosshairs on President Putin.

Now 17 years later President Putin acknowledges the fact that Washington,D.C. and Russia are at war.

The question is what is President Putin going to do with his belated recognition of reality?
