The Judge RANTS!

Intended Consequences

So after fifteen-and-a-half months of:

• "Russia's invasion of Ukraine was completely unprovoked! (except by us overthrowing the elected government next door and surrounding Russia with military hardware)"
• "Russia blew up the Nordstream pipeline! (erm, oh shit, that story's not going to fly even with the stupidest people in Europe. Let's just say that such a highly technical and dangerous operation was carried out by half a dozen random Ukrainians on a yacht. If that doesn't work, then we'll pretend it never happened anyway)"
• "Russia blew up the Kakhovka Dam! (crap! That's no more believable than the pipeline stuff; why would Russia flood the lands that they control? Especially as the Ukrainians tried to blow the fucking thing up only a few months ago? Umm, best say that it was 'unexplained')
• When all else fails, just shout "Russians bad! Putin mad", and accuse anyone who tries to present any counter-narrative as 'Putin's stooges', 'conspiracy theorists' and 'traitors'

And with this all excreted from every state and corporate media orifice in the Western World (by appointment to ExxonMobil and Raytheon), then 'cause' will have its inevitable 'effect':
