With brutal cynicism, the US gov't and media are feigning concern for the "grim death toll" (NYT) should Russia invade Ukraine. But they are doing everything they can to provoke a war, which the US & NATO clearly want. 1/

In defense of the interests of Wall Street, the Trump and Biden administrations refused to implement necessary public health policies, resulting in the #COVID19 deaths of nearly one million Americans.Since January 1, 2020, the #pandemic has claimed approximately 60,000 deaths. 3/
If the Biden administration is willing to tolerate death on this scale just to keep up the stock market, it is prepared to accept 50,000 Ukrainian deaths in the pursuit of US global hegemony. 4/4
