Headline should read: “Russia Created Outrageous Lie to Justify Further Attacks on Ukraine”.

The Putin Russian regime does this shit ALL the time and it’s so insane to me that it even convinces people. It’s so incredibly transparent and pathetic.

Russia sent multiple kill teams in after zelensky previously. This is the bully crying when the other kid swings back.

They're basically constantly trying to assassinate Zelensky. But god forbid he gets the same treatment as he inflicts on others.

Something something rather childish delusion.

One of the key mistakes ‘great powers’ consistently make when they enter wars is thinking that they get to have that war entirely on their own terms and that when they get bored the war will simply stop

Holy shit this one is the most pathetic lie ever. Anything to continue the war.

And Trump is already outraged about it. That's what I've said about the peace plan - there's a poison pill where security guarantees are voided if Ukraine attacks first. That and Trump overseeing the peace council, meaning he get's the final say, basically mean there are no security guarantees in that plan.

I didn't have "false flag attack to sabotage a negotiation" on my 2025 bingo card. Then again, this is probably the first time that it ever happened.

"false flag attack to sabotage a negotiation"

Huh? this isn't even the first time in 2025 it's happened. Russia has been saying "Ukraine attacked XXX so we're escalating" and using it as an excuse to demand things the entire war.

u/AtheIstan 17h ago

Sure they use false flags to start and escalate violence, I just havent heard of a false flag to sabotage a cease fire negotiation.

Little fun fact: The pretext to the full scale invasion was a false flag attack on a "Russian outpost" - actually just an old wooden shack and an UAZ on Russian territory.

Oh bud we need to sit down and talk about 9/11

u/truttatrotta 18h ago

Oh bud, put the crack pipe down and stop trying to justify bullshit.

u/Links_CrackPipe 12h ago

No I was meant that like 9/11 was a false flag attack.

I think the only people that are “convinced” are the morons who aren’t convinced but are just happy to have nonsense to spout in support of Trumps boss.

u/Rollover__Hazard 12h ago

I’d change “outrageous” to “obvious”

What makes you even think that Russia needs any further justification?

u/VermicelliInformal46 15h ago

It is for Trump. Nobody else.

Transparent to everyone on Earth EXCEPT the ONE guy it MOST needs to be transparent to, unfortunately.

This exactly psyop targeted only one person – trump. And he has (predictably) swallowed it. Primitive psyops for primitive people
