What is Amped … What is Ignored
Today in America (in the current news cycle), anti-Eastern talkers and shock jocks masquerading as journalists or otherwise valid sources of information are hemorrhaging headlines and scripted lines about Speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi and ilk’s flagrant, belligerent provocation (act of offense) against the Far East.
Of course, they are not calling this latest US outrage by its real name: a vile provocation (an act of divisiveness and aggression) against a sovereign nation and region and against international (multilateral, multicultural) relations; on the home front, a contemptuous act of distraction of Americans from the disintegration in Washington, the breakdown in US “leadership,” and thus the further breakdown of United States of America.
These pseudo news sources championing their “right” to spew nonsense—the
right to saturate the public airwaves and cyber sphere with vile propaganda—are
carrying on the tactics of their masters, serving their masters' ends of disparaging
nations with which (or leaders with whom) their masters disagree; spewing nonsense about
a US public official’s “right” (or “US” “right”) to visit one of the United
States’ allies of convenience.

et this truth be known: Neither the Far East nor Eastern Europe, neither the Russian Federation nor the People’s Republic of China is an enemy of the Americas in general or the United States of America in particular. The enemies of the United States of America are the leaders of the United States and their incestuous, nepotistic (private-NGO-academic-media-military industrial) partners and paymasters.

“In Kosovo as in Ukraine, the same Western ‘invisible hand’ foments conflict
In both cases, the West put no pressure on the side it supports to adhere to signed international deals: In addition to the conflict in Ukraine, Europe is now faced with the prospect of renewed conflict in Kosovo, Serbia’s breakaway province (officially named Kosovo and Metohija according to the Serbian constitution). Kosovo’s unilateral secession was recognized by the main Western powers in 2008. This came nine years after NATO’s attack on Serbia and the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia, after which NATO forces occupied the province and helped install an ethnic Albanian-led government dominated by former members of the Kosovo Liberation Army terrorist organization” (global political analysis, news August 1, 2022)
“West should avoid ‘one-sided’ view on Ukraine crisis” a German official is reported to have said. “The fall of the Soviet Union represented a lost opportunity for a new European security framework, a local top politician said” (world news reporting August 1, 2022)

Denial
Neglect
It
is as it does. It's all the same act.
Commit it, order it, or acquiesce to it; righteously deny its cause or effect, its manifestation or result; fail to report it or fail to call it by its name—it’s all the same.
Violence is Violence.
The coward ducks and hides. The brave, the courageous, stand tall. They confess the truth: actual truth, not manufactured "truth." They make amends, and mend their ways.
