    A year ago you’d get kicked out of most communities for saying it was americas war .

    Wonder what mental gymnastics those folks are doing now .

    Edt: really interesting to read everyone’s opinions, even at this stage.

    For those who remain curious :

    Roger waters addressing USNC

    Have listen, this is a synopsis.

    • the US were instrumental in removing Yanukovych, Zelenskyys predecessor,who was sympathetic to Russia .

    • they worked aggressively to expand nato, despite Russia saying it would be a red line crossed. Even Kissinger said it would be provocative

    • the US didn’t support the Minsk II agreements

    • the US has been funding Ukraine and training troops since 2014.

    • the US rejected Russias proposal for a peaceful solution in 2021

    • US is making a huge profit in arms and oils sales , while EU and Russia is weakened .

    All these actions occur whilst Ukraine is neither NATO, or EU. So a basic question to start with, is why is the US there at all ?
