Patriot,
In war, they say, truth is the first casualty.
If you've noticed the mass media's deceptions in other topics of
critical importance to our country - the censorship of the Hunter
Biden laptop story, the censorship of information unfavorable to
the experimental Covid vaccines, even the censorship of
censorship itself, as was revealed in the Twitter Files
revelations - you may not be surprised to hear the media hasn't
been giving the American people the truth about Ukraine.
But as I discuss in my newest column (read it below), propaganda
is discredited when confronted by a fact that is completely
undeniable and contradictory.
For months, major media outlets had hyped a major Ukrainian
offensive with all the NATO-donated weapons Ukraine would need.
We are now 49 days into the offensive, and no progress has been
made by Ukraine.
Throughout the entire conflict, we heard Russia was almost out of
missiles and shells.
And yet as Russia continues to use missiles of every kind, just
two weeks ago President Biden admitted he was sending cluster
munitions to Ukraine because we were out of conventional
artillery rounds to send them.
As I warn in my column, the next step of escalation could mean a
reinstatement of the military draft to address shortages of
American troops.

Biden is Calling Up Military Reserves…Are Your Kids Next?
As a rule, U.S. war reporting since Vietnam has been mostly
mainstream media cheerleading the mission rather than digging
beyond government war propaganda.
After all, it was images of American boys coming home in body
bags shown on the six o'clock news across America that finally
galvanized mainstream opposition to that war.
The Pentagon learned its lesson by the first Gulf War, and it
severely restricted up-close media coverage. Only "trusted"
journalists were able to report from the front lines. Most of the
press corps wrote up stories based on U.S. military press
releases from luxury hotels in Baghdad.
By the time of Gulf War II the Pentagon came up with the concept
of "embedding" select journalists with the troops. This allowed
the story to be framed by the Pentagon with the false impression
that actual journalism was taking place.
It felt authentic, because the journalist was with the troops and
close to the action, but the story presented what the Pentagon
wanted to be presented.
This is perhaps a long way of pointing out that U.S. mainstream
media coverage of the war in Ukraine leaves a lot to be desired.
Yes, sometimes the truth does slip out in publications like the
New York Times, which reported last week that in just the first
weeks of Ukraine's "counter-offensive" at least 20 percent of the
weaponry and equipment donated by the U.S. and NATO has been
destroyed.
However, usually what the mainstream media serves up are Pentagon
and neocon talking points. Russia is losing, they report. Russia
has already lost, as Biden said recently.
Most Americans don't go out of their way to listen to actual
experts like Col. Doug Macgregor, who from the beginning has been
telling a very different story. Thus Americans continue to be fed
propaganda.
There is a funny thing about propaganda, though. Sometimes it
comes face-to-face with contradictory reality and is shown to be
nothing but a pack of lies.
Take for example last week's shocking report that President Biden
has signed an order to mobilize 3,000 U.S. military reservists
for deployment to Europe in support of the 2014 "Operation
Atlantic Resolve."
What is Atlantic Resolve? It was launched in the aftermath of the
U.S.-backed coup in Ukraine and the ensuing unrest under the
U.S.-installed puppet government.
So, if Russia is losing - or has already lost, as Biden said last
week - why has it suddenly become necessary to call up U.S.
reserve forces? Well, in the midst of one of the most serious
U.S. military recruiting crises ever, it seems Washington does
not have sufficient troops for its anti-Russia mission in
Ukraine.
So what is the mission and why does it seem to be creeping toward
sending more Americans close to the battle zone? No one in the
Administration seems interested in explaining it and no one in
the U.S. media or Congress seems interested in asking.
We are on a very slippery slope, with Biden's neocons continuing
to escalate in the face of massive Ukrainian losses and an
apparent shortage of U.S. troops.
Make no mistake, if the U.S./NATO proxy war with Russia is not
halted the next step will be to look at the U.S. Selective
Service. That means they are coming for your kids. How long
before America wakes up and says "NO"?
