Is a Gulf of Tonkin moment at hand?
Shortly after returning from his latest trip to Kyiv, Senator Graham along with Blumenthal introduced his resolution providing Article 5 guarantees to Ukraine in the event that, among other things, a nuclear facility is destroyed in Ukraine.
Just coincidentally, the Ukrainian government including Zelensky and intel chief Budanov started issuing warnings about Russian plans to blow up the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant, even though the plant is under Russian control and blowing it up would have no strategic value.
Ukrainian propaganda channels keep pumping this claim without evidence. Of course, a compliant media has not pressed them for any, simply repeating the claims as if they come from an unbiased source.
If ZNPP gets destroyed, we won’t know for sure who did it, but we can be sure that the media will reflexively blame it on Russia, as they ludicrously did with the destruction of Nord Stream.
This press dynamic combined with the Graham-Blumenthal resolution actually creates a perverse incentive for _someone_ to destroy ZNPP if they want to draw America deeper into the conflict.
Biden has previously sworn that America will not get directly involved, on the grounds that would start World War III, but he also promised not to provide F-16s for the same reason. We know what happened with that promise.
In 1965, LBJ committed large numbers of American troops to the Vietnam War after previously stating “We are not about to send American boys 9 or 10 thousand miles away from home to do what Asian boys ought to be doing for themselves.” The outrage over the Gulf of Tonkin incident, which we now know to be a lie, created the pretext for that involement.
If ZNPP is destroyed, look for howls of outrage from the War Party seeking the “Americanization” of the Ukraine war to begin.

R to @cb_doge: Pretty accurate list. For several of the product “releases”, the basics were already in place & we just fixed the broken parts.

The World Health Organization says its proposed pandemic treaty would simply improve international coordination. But a new investigation by Public finds the @WHO treaty would enshrine the worst abuses of state power, including censorship, from the last 3 years. @galexybrane

“Ads” like this where you learn or are entertained are great, as they’re effectively content.
Consider Vogue Magazine, which consists mostly of “advertisements”, but they’re so beautiful that they’re worth seeing in & of themselves.
