This Richard Black interview is a better interview on what's going on in the
US/NATO war against Russia via Ukraine than what I've seen from famous interview
subjects including Noam Chomsky (his explanation started in February 2022). The
propaganda war is failing both with Americans -- this war is hardly registering
as important[0] -- and in light of what alternative media has been saying for
years and since February 2022.

There's not much recognition that the US carried out a coup against the
democratically elected Ukrainian government, why some Ukrainians moved east to
the Donbas, or that the Minsk agreements went unimplemented for 8 years[1] and
Ukraine agreed to them under false pretenses (the deal "meant nothing"[2]). This
is slowly starting to change (via alternative media and the recent Amnesty Intl.
report[3]) but by now the months-long narrative has been set. Even the Nazi
backing in the Ukraine military went from being explicitly acknowledged to being
minimized or covered up (now called various phrases such as 'right wing'); we
can't have NATO members understand that they're supporting Nazi ideologues.
