Democracy has been stolen from the American people and is now being controlled by the American aristocracy; they're the people who are the greatest threat to world peace -- and the world knows it, though the U.S. aristocracy and its agents keep Americans ignorant of it.
In fact, whereas 98% of the U.S. House, and 100% of the U.S. Senate, want a war against Russia, more than two-thirds of the American public still do not. This is supposed to be a 'democracy'? WW III won't be a result of democracy, but of the lack of it.
The problem is aristocracy: the aristocracy itself, and our Government of the people, for the aristocracy, by the aristocracy's representatives, via pervasive corruption of the political process in America.
Just as Ukraine is controlled by its "oligarchs" or billionaires, so too is the U.S. controlled by our billionaires. And, it's now endangering the entire world.
As a propagandist on a Ukrainian TV station that's financed by the U.S. and Netherlands Governments and by George Soros's International Renaissance Fund said to Ukrainians: "Donbass is overpopulated with people nobody has any use for. " At least 1.5 million of them are superfluous. " Donbass must be exploited as a resource, which it is. " No matter how cruel it may sound, there is a certain category of people who must be exterminated."
The U.S. President, 98% of the House, and 100% of the Senate, are using Americans' tax dollars to fund that extermination. But the American people don't even know about it. And no one in the American Government is condemning that propagandist's statement, nor its being carried out by the Ukrainian Government that they're forcing us taxpayers to finance.
