[Snip] The top editor of a Russian state-run media outlet who resigned in protest of President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine last week is warning that the world could be in danger of a nuclear war. Maria Baronova, the editor-in-chief of RT, stepped down last week after publicly criticizing the invasion, telling her followers on the encrypted Telegram messaging service: “Our granddads didn’t fight for this.” The Moscow-based journalist fears that the bloody invasion of Ukraine won’t stop there “The problem is, I know these people very well,” Baronova told Fox News Digital. “They never send threats, they just kill, so there is kind of [a] weird silence around me, but I really think we’re on the brink of a nuclear war right now. I’m not exaggerating.” [end Snip] Even though Baronova ran the Kremlin News outlet, on which so many Russia supporters around here like to rely, that doesn't mean that she is infallible, in all her assessments. Some, one would think, she should know about: in the article, she calls life in Moscow, "like we're... in North Korea...And this regime will finally turn our life into one endless hell. What’s there. Already turned.” Also, she apparently doesn't believe, all the garbage her paper has been claiming about the "special military operation," in Ukraine-- from her saying that, "our granddads didn't fight for this." But as far as her doomsday predictions, she does not feel that nukes will be used by Russia, but that Putin will "goad the West," into using them-- even though first strike with nuclear weapons has been long, and strongly, sworn off, by Western nations. Still, in the past two weeks, every major independent source of news, in Russia, has been shut down. Journalists face up to 15 years in prison, from a new law which requires them to stick strictly to the government's line, on all things related to this current situation in Ukraine, which they are not even permitted to call, a "war." P.S.-- To Putin-friendly Republicans: note this story isn't in one of the Liberal rags, as some see them, like the Washington Post, or NY Times, but from Rupert Murdoch's New York Post.
I don't see how any adult with functioning cognitive skills could NOT see this is much bigger than what is being reported. None of Putin's actions make sense. I'm not a military expert but I find it virtually impossible that someone with his background and experience would fumble an invasion the way this is going down. The Ukrainian President has shown himself to be a strong leader and their people courageous and brave but still. It doesn't add up. At least, not in the way it's being reported at the moment.
So even the people who produce propaganda for RT don't believe it. Makes you wonder about people who do.
