Balkan people were better off under Russian rule.

Independence has not been good for all of the small Balkan states.

Lol

1. Slovenia, Croatia, Romania, and Bulgaria are unequestionably much better off since the fall of the iron curtain.
2. Yugoslavia was not under Russian dominion during the cold war.
3. Moldova has wanted to re-join Romania forever but isnt allowed to because of Russian sensitivities.

That leaves us with Albania. But doubt an Albanian would ever say that.

Pretty funny how all the Russian trolls on twitter are so worked up by this. Even made "Matt Lee" the number one trending topic.

Want to know if the intelligence is true? That's your answer right there.

Matt Lee is the Russians' useful idiot

WTF is wrong with Matt Lee? "Show us your classified intel that would expose the inside source!"

Seems as if when a journalist does his job, he becomes "Putin's puppet."

Washington Post reporter:

One tweet in her thread:
It's the job of reporters to ask for proof to back up government statements. Doing so does not mean one believes propaganda put out by U.S. adversaries. I imagine these officials know that. Are they simply throwing out these accusations in an effort to deter further Qs?

Matt Lee asked for proof and the State Dept spokesman responded that anything further was classified to prevent disclosure of sources and methods. And then Matt Lee persisted, knowing full well that he wasn't going to learn anything else. And he said something like "this is Alex Jones territory." He was being overly argumentative and it was kind of strange.

This time the pretext was to be a video of a fake attack by Ukraine on ethnic Russians

The plan — which the United States hopes to spoil by making public — involves staging and filming a fabricated attack by the Ukrainian military either on Russian territory or against Russian-speaking people in eastern Ukraine.

Russia, the officials said, intended to use the video to accuse Ukraine of genocide against Russian-speaking people. It would then use the outrage over the video to justify an attack or have separatist leaders in the Donbas region of eastern Ukraine invite a Russian intervention.

Officials would not release any direct evidence of the Russian plan or specify how they learned of it, saying to do so would compromise their sources and methods. But a recent Russian disinformation campaign focused on false accusations of genocide and efforts in the Russian Parliament to recognize breakaway governments in Ukraine lent credence to the intelligence.

If carried out, the Russian operation would be an expansion of a propaganda theme that American intelligence officials and outside experts have said Moscow has been pushing on social media, on conspiracy sites and with state-controlled media since November.

The video was intended to be elaborate, officials said, with plans for graphic images of the staged, corpse-strewn aftermath of an explosion and footage of destroyed locations. They said the video was also set to include faked Ukrainian military equipment, Turkish-made drones and actors playing Russian-speaking mourners.

Classified considerations aside, American intelligence - as evidenced by the Iraq and Afghanistan record - is a clusterschmuck. I mean if it was a washing machine, it would be pulled from the shelves. That’s how unreliable it is.

Has the concept of false flags gone mainstream now?

After the Afghanistan debacle, I am not sure why anyone listens to Milley.

Same lol. The recruiter that came to my college acted like I was a shoo-in (Russian and econ major, studied abroad, spoke multiple languages, etc) and then they totally blew off my application. Then in 2016 when stuff started heating up with Russia, they contacted me out of the blue inviting me to apply to a job that would involve a ton of travel. I was pregnant so I turned them down. I wonder if they're going to try again if we go to war with Russia. Oh well, they missed their chance. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Between this and the banking sanctions, Putin may be wishing he hadn't amassed the troops on the Ukrainian border.

Matt Lee is a a tool. His ignorant incredulity over the possibility of Russia pulling a false flag made him look clueless.
