This @NYT article, claiming without a shred of evidence that Russia is directing terrorist attacks in Western Europe, is aimed at conditioning public opinion for the direct deployment of US-NATO troops, air power and other military resources in the war. #UkraineRussiaWar 1/ 
The #NYTimes is reprising the role it played prior to the US invasion of Iraq in 2003, when it promoted the "weapons of mass destruction" lie and related Bush administration fabrications. NYT correspondent Judith Miller concocted claims about Iraq's plans for nuclear war. 2/
The Biden administration, having staked the prestige of US-led NATO on the defeat of Russia, now fears a collapse of Ukrainian forces, which have suffered massive casualties. Therefore, a new "Russian terrorism" narrative is being developed to justify a massive escalation. 3/3
